What did this mean?
Even if some of them were Adepts who specialized in flight, most of them were ninth level Adepts!
In all of the Western Alliance, the two Citadels had recorded thirty-nine ninth level Adepts.
The Dark Citadel had twenty-one, and the Pontiff's Citadel eighteen.
According to their sources, Skyfire Avenue had more than thirty ninth level Adepts, and three Paragons.
Overall, they were strong.
But they were confident that the two Citadels combined wouldn't be too far behind, at least when it came to high-end combat prowess.
Now, however, they realized that their previous thoughts had been nothing more than wishful thinking.
Skyfire Avenue had more than seventy ninth level Adepts, after all!
Don't forget that the vast majority of Skyfire Avenue's Adepts were congenital Adepts.
Satan's expression changed when he saw this. Skyfire Avenue's overall strength was far greater than he'd expected.
Under these circumstances, if he wanted to take Mika with him …
Not many of the Dark Citadel's Adepts would be willing to leave with him.
But the words had been spoken, and he couldn't take them back so easily.
Suddenly, a strange energy rippled from Skyfire Avenue.
A strange child's voice rang out.
"Diligence is the path to a mountain of books, and the sea of learning is boundless."
It was a simple poem, only fourteen words in total. But when they were spoken by the child's voice …
All of Skyfire Avenue was shrouded in a strange light.
It was a milky white light, full of texture. A rich, inky aroma wafted through the air.
A rich, fragrant aroma.
It refreshed the heart.
It made one feel like they were immersed in a sea of books.
They couldn't help but want to delve deeper into knowledge.
Then.
A beam of white light shot to the heavens. It was a gentle pillar of white light.
Satan, the Wine Master, and the Gourmet could feel it most clearly. All three of their faces changed.
The only difference was that Satan's face grew darker. The Wine Master and the Gourmet's faces were filled with joy.
This is …
On the ground, the Pontiff's face fell. "How is this possible?" He gasped.
For the first time, he couldn't control his emotions.
The Gourmet's ascension to Paragon was within their expectations. After all, the Eye of Tomorrow's life was nearing its end.
Therefore, the appearance of this white light at this moment completely exceeded their expectations.
The thick scent of books affected the energy fluctuations in everyone's minds.
This meant that this was an incomparably pure power of law.
And this kind of overflowing Law Power could only appear in one situation.
The birth of a Paragon!
Yes.
A new Paragon was about to be born.
Different Adepts were different when they became Paragons.
The phenomenon that would appear would also be different.
Some could even affect the climate of the entire planet, while some could only cause slight energy fluctuations on their bodies.
It had to do with the Discipline of a Paragon.
When the Gourmet became a Paragon, he immersed himself in his own Domain. He could feel everything in the Netherworld. When he became a Paragon, he was in his own Domain.
That was why no one knew.
But now, this milky white light signified the birth of a new Paragon. Judging from the energy fluctuations this new Paragon emanated, it was no ordinary being.
The white power of law was gentle and harmonious, and the energy core was almost perfectly converged.
This was something the Pontiff himself couldn't have done.
This could only be achieved with an extremely deep accumulation of experience.
The younger a Paragon was, the less they were able to comprehend. It took a long time to adapt after their breakthrough.
The older they were, the more time they had spent cultivating, and the deeper their foundation.
However, the older they were, the more difficult it was for them to break through to Paragon.
The two were mutually contradictory.
The sky had turned completely white. The atmosphere was peaceful, causing all the students of Skyfire Planet to raise their heads in unison. In that instant, some of the knowledge that they had been unable to understand suddenly became clear in their minds, as if they had been enlightened with wisdom.
The National Eastern University of West Hill. The students in the midst of their arduous training lifted their heads in unison. They looked up at the wondrous scene in the sky.
Under Hua Li's command, they continued their brutal training. But now, the energy that had been sealed and suppressed within them began to leak out uncontrollably.
Steel needles began to drill out of their bodies, and the energy within their bodies began to return and increase at an astonishing speed.
Huali stared at the changes in the sky. Suddenly, she shouted. "Everyone, sit cross-legged and feel the changes. Enter a meditative state."
As she spoke, she sat down cross-legged, her palms facing the sky. She closed her eyes and began to feel the changes.
When an Adept ascended to Paragon, she released her protogenia for others to meditate on. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
For an Adept, the stronger they were, the deeper they could feel it.
It was very likely that it would plant a seed for their future advancement.
What was happening now gave Huali a reason to stay on Skyfire Planet.
Such a good thing had only happened a few times in the history of mankind.
First of all, not all Paragons' abilities were suitable for ordinary people to experience. If they didn't control their protogenia properly, it could lead to catastrophic consequences.
Second, not all Paragons were willing to release their protogenia for others to experience. For them, it was the same as revealing their power to others.
Therefore, in human history, this kind of situation was only known to have occurred four or five times.
Each time it happened, those who could sense the changes within were rewarded with great benefits for their future cultivation.
Although Huali didn't know which Adept had ascended to Paragon, he could sense that the protogenia had something to do with comprehension. It was extremely beneficial to all Adepts. How could he let such a good opportunity pass him by?
The students' energies were recovering. This was a direct benefit, and they didn't dare neglect it.
After being tortured by the steel needles and boiling water for the past few days, all of them had lost their human forms. However, everyone's eyes were much brighter than when they first arrived, and their gazes were also much more serious.
In a little more than a week, they'd undergone a transformation.
When Lan Jue had first removed the second needle, she'd delayed the process. Their bodies needed more time to adapt. The third needle was removed on the seventh day, and the fourth yesterday.
Each of them still had five needles in their bodies.
At this moment, the five steel needles were expelled at the same time, and at the same time, they felt the earth-shattering changes in their bodies.
In less than a minute, everyone, including Wang Hongyuan, Tan Lingyun, and the Psychic Tide Lin Guo-guo who'd stayed behind to assist Huali, entered a meditative state. The base was quiet and peaceful.
Skyfire Avenue.
Lan Jue was the first to close his eyes. What Huali could feel, he could feel as well.
The rest of the Skyfire Avenue powerhouses were no exception.
The Adepts of the Dark Citadel and the Pontiff's Citadel were shocked for a moment, but when they closed their eyes and tried to feel the protogenia around them, they were disappointed to find that they couldn't.
The ancient voice echoed through the air. "I'd wanted to present you with a gift.
Unfortunately, this is an unwelcome guest.
There's no reason to accept a gift.
Do you still think you have a chance to escape unscathed, Satan? "
A figure appeared out of thin air. A moment later, a white light appeared in front of Satan. When the light faded, the Keeper was revealed.
Today, the Keeper was clad in a simple, unadorned robe.
He had a scholarly air about him, like an old scholar.
What was even more bizarre was that his originally old face seemed to have become younger, and his dim yellow eyes were also bright and full of expression.
The Keeper's aura was even stronger than Satan's.
The white light began to recede, but the sky was still a clear white.
The child's voice rang out once more. Before, it had been a single child, but now it was a thousand.
"At birth, men are good. Their natures are similar, but their habits are different.
If they do not teach, their natures change. The way of teaching is to be focused. "
The white light spread out, and a towering figure that was hundreds of feet tall floated in the air. It was a Confucian scholar, with one hand behind his back and the other holding a book. His eyes were closed, and he nodded slightly, looking relaxed and carefree.
"Once upon a time, Mencius' mother chose a neighbor. Her children did not learn, and she broke the rules.
Dou Yanshan, righteous, taught five children, and their names spread far and wide. "
The child's voice rang out once more. In front of the Confucian scholar, a series of figures appeared, reflecting the contents of the Three Character Classic.
"To raise and not to teach is the fault of the father. To teach and not to be strict is the laziness of the teacher.
The child does not learn, and the child does not learn, and the old does not learn. "
The scholar's eyes opened, and they were hard and serious. He looked like a teacher instructing his students.
"An unpolished jade is worthless. A man does not learn, and he does not know righteousness.
As a son, when he is young, he must learn etiquette, master, and friends. "
A small child appeared in front of the Confucian scholar. As he listened to the teachings, he slowly grew.
"Incense is nine years old, able to warm the table. Filial piety is the right thing to do.
Rong is four years old, able to yield pears. His younger brother is the right thing to do.
Filial piety is the first. Knowledge is the second. Knowledge is the right thing to do. "
The scene changed. Each scene was filled with the charm of ancient Chinese culture. Yellow incense warm the table, Kong Rong yielding pears. The way of filial piety stirred the heart.
