Chapter 125 Inviting Wei Hongru
At this point, thinking of the legend about Liang Zifeng, Wei Hongru once again confirmed the idea that Liang Zifeng was the descendant of the Sword Immortal Sect. How could a warrior who was promoted to the first rank still stay in this remote place? How could someone be so careless about human life and slaughter thousands of people at will?
"Oh, I see." Liang Zifeng nodded. He didn't know much about the Sword Immortal Sect. Most of the information he knew came from the elder named Wang, but that wasn't much.
But Elder Wang had a very comprehensive understanding of Xuanlu Academy and knew what type of sect it was.
Xuanlu Academy was built more than a thousand years ago, mainly to provide management talents for various forces, so Xuanlu Academy is mainly a place to teach people to read and study.
In addition, the students of Xuanlu Academy all dabble in the six arts of a gentleman, which naturally includes the practice of martial arts. Because there are so many students, there will always be some people with extremely high talents. Coupled with the deduction from generation to generation in the academy, the foundation of Xuanlu Academy's martial arts has become very strong.
As a holy land, and a top-level lower-grade holy land at that, it also has its own territory and sphere of influence. Within the sphere of influence of Xuanlu Academy, there is no imperial court, but only academies of different levels.
Within the Xuanlu Academy, people regard studying as the highest honor, and everything belonging to the people is managed by academies of different levels. The management system here is much more complete than that of the general feudal society, and the people live much happier lives than in other places.
What Liang Zifeng likes most is that Xuanlu Academy is an upright one, and the people who come out of it are all gentlemen in their conduct and work. At least, he has not heard of the existence of people like Yue Buqun so far.
"Dean Wei, you are very good. So far, you are the only warrior I have seen who possesses righteousness." Liang Zifeng nodded kindly, then looked at the other party with admiration and said.
"Hahaha, Young Master Liang, you are too kind. I really admire the fresh, unworldly and carefree charm of Young Master Liang. Could it be that the word "Xian" in the Sword Immortal Sect comes from this?"
"Alas, I've already said that I'm not from the Sword Immortal Sect. Forget it, let's not talk about this. It's rare to meet someone who suits my taste. Would Dean Wei be willing to come to the Snail House for a gathering?"
When Wei Hongru heard Liang Zifeng's invitation, he immediately showed a pleasantly surprised expression on his face, and nodded hurriedly in response: "Okay, okay, in that case, I will bother you."
"You're welcome. Take this jade token and follow me." After Liang Zifeng threw a jade token to Wei Hongru, he led the other party into the formation.
After Wei Hongru took the jade token, he knew its purpose after just one glance. Without saying anything, he happily entered the formation with Liang Zifeng.
After entering the space outside the valley, Wei Hongru was shocked again when he felt the temperature which was obviously much higher than outside, as well as a faint sense of restraint.
"I didn't expect that Young Master Liang has such a high level of attainment in space formations. It is much stronger than the protective formations of our academy. I admire you."
"It seems that Dean Wei has made great achievements in formations."
"It's just average. Compared to you, Mr. Liang, you are really nothing."
"By the way, Dean Wei..."
"Mr. Liang, please don't call me Dean Wei. It sounds a bit awkward. You should just call me Fellow Daoist Wei. I know that you people from the Sword Immortal Sect like to call other practitioners Fellow Daoists. It is somewhat similar to those who practice Taoism."
"Oh? Fellow Daoist?" Liang Zifeng's heart moved when he heard the words, and he suddenly became curious about the Sword Immortal Sect, but it was not a good idea to ask about the Sword Immortal Sect now.
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Wei, have you heard of the secret realm? How far is your academy's station from the secret realm?"
"Huh? Young Master Liang actually knows about the secret realm? Oh, that's right, the term secret realm is mentioned in many mythological books, but it seems that there is no secret realm in the Tianwu world."
"Doesn't it exist? If the spatial formation is deduced to the extreme, can't it hide a piece of space from the Tianwu world? Isn't this the same as the secret realm?"
"What kind of secret realm is this? If it can't generate its own spiritual energy, the enclosed small space will collapse on its own in a short time. This kind of small space has already been tried by others, and it's useless."
"Self-generated spiritual energy?"
"Yes, if you can't generate spiritual energy on your own, I advise you not to try to close the space. I think this space will be closed in the future, right? That would be very dangerous. It's better for you to be cautious, Mr. Liang."
"Could it be that the enclosed space will collapse due to the exhaustion of spiritual energy?"
"Yes, spiritual energy is the basis for the existence of this world. Without spiritual energy, nothing will function properly."
"Then, what if we use formations outside a closed space to transport spiritual energy into the space?"
"It's impossible. The moment the space is closed, it disappears. It's too difficult to send spiritual energy into it. However, it is said that someone has anchored the disappearing space, but it seems that spiritual energy cannot be sent in. Legend has it that in a closed space, there is no communication between the inside and the outside."
"Can the secret realm generate spiritual energy on its own?"
"No one knows this. After all, no one has ever seen a true secret realm. But if you want to use a formation to seal off an independent space, unless there is nothing inside that consumes spiritual energy, it will collapse due to the depletion of spiritual energy."
The two of them walked and talked like this, and soon they arrived at the cliff illusion at the entrance of the valley.
"Huh? It's actually an illusion? Being able to create such a realistic illusion, Master Liang is ahead of the world in the field of illusions."
"Haha, Brother Wei, please stop praising me. Please." Liang Zifeng smiled, then shook his head and said to Wei Hongru.
"Hahaha, the main reason is that Young Master Liang's attainments in formations are so unique that it even makes people feel a little unbelievable. I think most of the people outside the formations are studying Young Master Liang's formations, right?
Aren't you worried that someone might crack your secret method of hiding the formation base?"
"The secret method is a secret method. How can it be so easy to crack? If they can crack it, it means that the secret method can be further optimized and improved. Why not do it?"
Hearing Liang Zifeng's confident words, Wei Hongru nodded in admiration. In fact, his attainments in formation were not low, but he had no idea how Liang Zifeng hid the formation base so perfectly, so he could only admire Liang Zifeng's confidence.
After passing through the illusory cliff, Wei Hongru finally saw the interior of the valley. It turned out to be a beautiful valley with green trees.
When the two of them officially stepped into the interior space of the valley, Wei Hongru's face suddenly changed, because he found that his connection with the magic weapon left outside was somewhat intermittent.
