Chapter 497: The old and new geniuses take turns, and the moment of laughter lasts forever (the finale)

Time flies and a year has passed quickly.

During this year, the atmosphere of demonic disasters completely disappeared in the universe, half of the universe was recovered, countless explorers rushed to seek opportunities, and the entire universe burst into even stronger vitality.

During this year, the world received good news one after another, each time more enthusiastic than the last.

First, there was an unusual movement in the North Desolate Hill. The Buddha Emperor, who had been reborn from Nirvana, broke out of the Eternal Tower and successfully summoned the Sky List. After being stunned for a few moments, he picked up the pen and wrote down his last name.

Thunder rumbled on the Sky List, and a vast ocean of spiritual power descended. The Buddha Emperor Shengzhi finally took that step and became the fifth person on the list in the universe. A bodhi tree mark appeared on his forehead.

Although the Buddha Emperor had made a breakthrough, he was still a little confused. Unable to find the enemy, he returned to Daling Mountain and wandered around, but felt bored, so he simply disappeared with Kong Xuan, and no one knew where he was.

Three months later, strange phenomena appeared on the Shanhai Continent. The Phoenix King Feng Yusheng broke through the barrier and summoned the Sky List. He succeeded in breaking through the barrier under the expectation and attention of countless beastmen in the world.

The light and shadow of the Fire Phoenix illuminated the entire Mountain and Sea Continent. The True Dragon Emperor, the Great Ape King Tongtian and others felt extremely proud and at the same time, they also developed a sense of urgency and made up their minds to go into seclusion.

It’s a good thing that the Beast Tribe has produced a peerless figure, but they don’t want to lag behind others forever. So they should make good use of the fact that they still have some insights from Ye Kong’s breakthrough and practice hard.

Soon after the Phoenix King came out of retreat, the “Xundao Spiritual Academy” was ready and on the right track. Ye Kong invited people from all over the world to come, announced the opening of the academy, and began to recruit students for the first time.

He is the dean, and Phoenix King Feng Yusheng is the guardian beast of the academy. The positions of these two top-notch warriors have pushed the reputation of Xundao Lingyuan to the peak.

With a powerful being in the realm of all living beings and a powerful being half a step away from the realm of all living beings, in a sense, the strength of this new spiritual academy is unparalleled in the world.

The heroes of the universe were also very considerate. The missing Buddha Emperor and his wife, the idle Emperor Yan and Martial Ancestor, and many powerful saints in the late stage, including the beast tribe, all brought their descendants into the venue, and the scene was prosperous and glorious for a while.

Countless young geniuses who had just started the path of cultivation came together to pay homage to the mountain and accept the test.

The first entrance examination was designed by Ye Kong himself, and presided over by Peng Chaoyang and Huang Zhong. The test involved various aspects such as talent, character, thinking, etc., and the requirements were extremely strict.

Ye Kong stood at a high place in the academy with his sleeves rolled up, looking at the countless people pouring in with a smile on his face. He felt a sense of pride that all the heroes in the world had become his disciples.

Peng Beihai, Feng Chaoyang, carrying books and swords, set off on a long journey…

This look is somewhat similar to how he looked when he stepped into the Spiritual Road in the past… Ye Kong looked at these geniuses who were panicking and at a loss in the maze level he set up and laughed secretly.

Today, he is no longer the same as he was back then. Over the past decade, he has grown from a junior to an elder and has become a legendary figure in the eyes of countless people.

“Why do you suddenly have the air of a teacher? This is not appropriate for someone like me…”

Ye Kong muttered to himself, thinking that practicing too fast seemed to have some disadvantages, as it was too easy for him to stand out.

“Shh-“

A flash of sword light with the charm of reincarnation came over and landed not far from Ye Kong. Ye Kong couldn’t help but raise the corner of his mouth, turned his head and chuckled:

“Brother Xu’s cultivation is improving very fast. It seems that in a few years, the Sword Domain will have another Saint-level expert. Then there may be one more person on the Sky Ranking.”

Xu Lingyun had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and his posture was straight. The sword energy rippling around his body revealed the sharp spiritual power of a late immortal level.

“Haha, my level of cultivation is nothing. I was able to break through after decades of seclusion in the sword room. If I don’t come out for some fresh air, I feel like I’m going crazy.”

Xu Lingyun smiled modestly and said in a carefree manner, “I came here for something. I want to ask for a job from you, King Ye. Is it okay to be a kendo teacher?”

Ye Kong was surprised and asked in confusion: “Brother Xu, I welcome you to come, but you have many things to do in your Sword Domain, so why are you coming here?”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Don’t my master and his friends still have the Sword Domain to take care of the affairs? My master is in his prime now, so being the lord of the Sword Domain for another three hundred years won’t be a big deal.”

Xu Lingyun waved his hand nonchalantly, then his expression became serious and he said:
“I used to practice in the Sword Domain. Although the Sword Domain is large, it is still too small compared to the entire universe. Here, I can access a much larger world.”

Ye Kong nodded with an understanding look. Putting aside the fact that Xu Lingyun wanted to be a hands-off boss and not succeed to the throne, he came here for two reasons: one was to practice, and the other was probably to occupy an ecological niche in advance.

One of the core reasons why the Sword Domain is ranked as the world’s number one holy land of swordsmanship is the endless stream of sword practitioners who come to make pilgrimages, relying on its golden signboard;

But now that Xundao Lingyuan has been established, if he ever gets the mood to create a sword academy, Jianyu’s golden body will inevitably suffer a huge impact.

Although his swordsmanship may not be as good as that of the Green Shirt Sword Master, there is no doubt that the Green Shirt Sword Master cannot beat him. In this world, only hard power is considered; fancy tricks are useless.

Since we can’t win anyway, it’s better to take the initiative to join instead of being passive in the future!
After a little thought, Ye Kong took out the diagram of the division of the Xundao Spiritual Academy, wrote a golden word “Ye” on it, and handed it to Xu Lingyun:
“Since Brother Xu has such a heart, I will not disappoint him. There are many beautiful places in Xundao Lingyuan. Brother Xu, you can choose one place to establish a sword academy. You will be the academy master. All teaching matters are up to you, as long as they do not violate the academy rules. How do you do it?”

Xu Lingyun agreed with great joy, and then could not wait to take people to survey the terrain and prepare to build a kendo academy.

Ye Kong watched Xu Lingyun leave, feeling an indescribable joy in his heart.

I had originally thought about going to the Sword Domain to learn from it in the future, but who would have thought that the Young Lord of the Sword Domain would come here himself, and everything went very smoothly.

“Shh-“

Two more streams of light fell, coming from Lu Shengjun and Master Jin Jiu.

Master Jin Jiu raised all nine heads high and said calmly, “Xiao Kong, our former mountain master said that he wants to find a place in the Buddhist temple here to rest for a while.”

Ye Kong was stunned for a moment, then he smiled casually: “You can arrange this kind of thing yourself, after all, you are the vice president in charge of affairs.”

“Hey, I just want to say hello to you.” Master Jin Jiu jumped up and down, took a deep breath, looked at the groups of young figures, and sighed:
“In the blink of an eye, the vast ocean has turned into mulberry fields. Thinking back to when we were young, we were all so green.”

Ye Kong was amused by the lion’s literary and artistic aura, and scolded him with a smile: “Don’t sigh carelessly, we are still very young, we still have infinite vitality and impact, and the future is still long.”

After chatting with Master Jin Jiu for a while, Ye Kong looked at Lu Shengjun: “Brother, why did you come to see me?”

“Haha, that’s easy. Of course we’re here to drink and reminisce!”

With a clang, Lu Shengjun took out two large wine jars and a set of white jade cups. The aroma of the wine was very rich and intoxicating.

“This is the monkey wine I brewed myself. Even the Holy Supreme would get drunk. Let’s take a couple of sips?”

“Then take two bites!”

Ye Kong sat down with a big laugh, took the white jade cup, filled it with wine, drank it in big gulps, and chatted with Lu Shengjun about the past.

From the time when they went down the mountain to disturb the Holy Buddha, to the later training with the Tongtian Ape Clan, to the pursuit of the Styx lineage, the two men became happier and happier as they drank, but they did not feel drunk yet. It seemed as if they could never finish talking about the past.

At some point, Master Jin Jiu, who was standing by, got drunk with all nine heads and fell down dizzy, still muttering something about Ye Kong cultivating another clone…

Xiao Yan, Xiao Lin and his son, Lin Dong, and Lin Jing and his daughter had arrived at the side without knowing when. They sat down and drank with a familiar look, their eyes lit up, and they talked about the past.

Lin Jing had the worst alcohol tolerance. He waved his little fist to show that he would surpass his father sooner or later, and then fell down limply.

Lin Dong’s face darkened and he left with Lin Jing.

Xiao Lin was also drunk, and he and Ye Kong were arm in arm, as if they had returned to the time when they had never had any conflicts.

“Brother-in-law, for what happened back then, I, your younger brother, would like to apologize to you today! I’m sorry~back then…I was too impulsive. It’s okay if you blame me, but don’t blame my sister. She really didn’t want to blame you. It was all my idea…”

After a few drunken words, Xiao Lin, who was dizzy, fell down and lay on the ground unconscious.

Xiao Yan ignored him and took out a new jar of wine, filling it up for himself and Ye Kong, clinked their glasses, and said with a smile:

“Your wedding is coming soon, right? Are you planning to hold it here?” Ye Kong nodded vigorously and replied with a smile:
“Yes, all the burdens can be put down, and I should give them an explanation… But, I am indeed sorry to Xiao Xiao, and I am also a little sorry to you…”

Xiao Yan sighed, stared at Ye Kong with sharp eyes, and said:

“Xiao Xiao has told me about your matter. It’s not strange for men to be sentimental, and it’s not wrong, but you have to be responsible. Since it’s a mistake, there’s nothing to hesitate about. I, Xiao Yan, always take this into consideration.”

Ye Kong smiled, clinked the cup with Xiao Yan, and everything was said without words.

The father-in-law and son-in-law drank until the sun hung low in the sky and the sky began to darken.

Ye Kong patted his clothes and stood up to give a motivational speech to all the selected students.

Xiao Yan stood on the top of the mountain and watched Ye Kong leave. His gaze then fell on those young geniuses who were full of vigor and vitality, and he felt a sense of emotion in his heart.

He, Ye Kong, and those geniuses who are about to embark on the path of cultivation are undoubtedly three generations old. Each generation has its own path…

“Wow—”

The space twisted, and Wu Zu, who had sent Lin Jing away to rest, walked out. He smiled calmly at Xiao Yan and said, “What’s wrong? Do you feel old after seeing those younger generations climbing the mountain?”

Without directly answering Wu Zu’s words, Xiao Yan looked up at the night sky, his eyes shining, and whispered:
“Having reached my current state, I know that there are other extraordinary worlds outside the universe. Our journey in this universe is almost at the end. Can we… try to go further?”

Upon hearing this, Wu Zu showed a yearning look on his face, but the next moment he hesitated and said, “But our relatives and friends may not be able to reach our level. If we leave, what will happen to them?”

Xiao Yan smiled and said, “It’s just an idea. If you want to really get out, you have to leave your real name on the Sky Ranking.”

After saying this, Xiao Yan’s eyes became a little hotter, he turned his head slightly, and said in an eager tone:
“In a few years, when you and I have nothing to do, we can go out for a walk together, just like when we ascended to the universe, how about that?”

A rare smile appeared on Wu Zu’s thick lips, and he spoke in a long tone:
“Oh? Is it still the same as before? Come to think of it, it was several hundred years ago when we first met, right?

At that time, we had just come up from the lower planes, and our strength was only about that of the Earth Supreme. It took us hundreds of years to gain a foothold in this world and reach the top, becoming legends and predecessors in everyone’s mouths. Now we are witnessing the rise of new geniuses, who have walked the path we walked in the past. This reincarnation is very interesting. “

Xiao Yan laughed loudly, holding the back of his head with both hands, and said as if reminiscing:

“At that time, I was still very young, and I ascended with my wife, hoping to explore this new world. Fortunately, I succeeded, and this world is no less beautiful than it was back then.”

“Now… I think I can still fight a few more times, but I can’t just watch the juniors easily surpass us and not work hard, right? What about you?”

“As for me… I came here just to save my beloved wife. Later, I discovered the traces of the evil tribe from outside the domain, and I started fighting with them, until now…”

Wu Zu recalled the past, and scenes of light and shadow appeared before his eyes. When he was in the lower plane, he walked out of a small branch family, ventured into the dynasty alone, and went through countless hardships.

The first encounter with Ling Qingzhu in the ancient tomb, the sharp edge of the Hundred Dynasties War, Dao Zong never forgets Huanhuan, the brothers in the Chaos Sea Monster Territory…

The strange demon appeared, the East Region returned, and the beauty looked different from before; the ancient ice master returned to the previous life, but his heart has never changed in this life…

The past flashed past him, and there were tears on Wu Zu’s usually calm face. He wiped his eyes and chuckled:

“Okay! When my cultivation has improved and everything is settled, I will go out with you to look for opportunities in the outside world!”

Xiao Yan smiled and said nothing more.

Under the moonlight, the old generation of geniuses stood tall in the sky, while the new generation of geniuses were passionate and enthusiastic, with the same undiminished fighting spirit. Each of them had their own strengths and each was stunning and charming.

……

February 2 is a good day for marriages. The Xundao Academy is packed with distinguished guests, and countless monks come uninvited, wanting to catch a glimpse of the extraordinary elegance of the wedding of the most powerful man in the world throughout history.

Although the list of brides at this wedding was somewhat shocking, for the number one man in the world, such a thing was not worth mentioning at all.

“Worship heaven and earth!”

“Two thanks to the high hall!”

In the main hall of Xundao Lingyuan, which is filled with joy, twelve red lanterns made by Emperor Yan himself are hung, symbolizing good luck like the wind. Wuzu personally presented a plaque with the words “Forever Together”, symbolizing a long-lasting heart like a dragon.

In the main hall, on the high seats, Kong Xuan, Buddha Emperor, Monk Shi Zhen, Monk Shi Luo, Xiao Yan, the Phoenix Clan’s Great Elder, Monk Ding Xin, Wen Family’s He Po and other elders were sitting on the saddles, looking at the five kneeling figures below with smiles on their faces.

On both sides, the Green Shirt Sword Master, the Immortal Lord, Qin Tian, ​​Muchen and others were also present, witnessing together this world-renowned wedding.

The whole world rejoices for it.

The wedding emcee was none other than the only strong and capable Wu Zu present. He changed into a slightly ill-fitting outfit, put on a generous smile, and shouted loudly:

“Couple greetings!”

When Wu Zu’s voice fell, Ye Kong, who was dressed in a festive red robe, turned his head to look at the four beautiful women wearing phoenix crowns and bridal robes behind him, and bowed slightly with a smile.

Xiao Xiao looked dignified and elegant, and her eyes met Ye Kong’s. Feng Yusheng, who was rarely shy in the past, felt a little embarrassed for the first time, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she was still a little uncomfortable with such occasions.

Wen Qingxuan lowered her eyebrows, but still couldn’t help looking at Ye Kong, the smile in the corners of her eyes almost overflowing; Yanni changed her usual quiet and elegant demeanor, and looked at Ye Kong openly.

Such a scene made Ye Kong wonder if his four wives had been hiding a side of themselves that they had not revealed.

After the four of them bowed to each other, Wu Zu suppressed the urge to laugh and deliberately raised his voice a little higher: “Send her to the bridal chamber!”

Everyone started to laugh, and Xiao Lin, Monk Dingxin and others laughed the loudest.

At this moment, Lin Jing, who had not appeared before, suddenly appeared beside Lin Dong, holding a spiritual weapon that most people did not recognize, and shouted loudly:
“Don’t move, don’t make a fuss. It’s time to witness a miracle! Let’s take a picture together!”

“Photo? What does this mean?” Xiao Lin asked in confusion.

Many people were also confused and didn’t understand what this new thing was.

At this time, the groom Ye Kong turned around gently and laughed loudly, “The meaning is very simple. If we use that thing to take a picture, it can take a picture of our appearance and print it on paper. Come on, let’s all smile and let our spirits shine, okay?”

Although most people still don’t quite understand, since it was Ye Kong who said it, they naturally wouldn’t have any objections.

“it is good!”

For a moment, cheers rang out, and people like Master Jin Jiu and Lu Shengjun who knew some inside information even struck a pose that they thought was the best looking.

Lin Jing smiled and left a trace of spiritual power on the shutter, then took her father’s hand and came to Ye Kong and the four girls.

Ye Kong held the hands of the four girls and stood at the front. Beside him were all the precious people he had met along the way, including teachers, friends…

“Everyone say together, eggplant.”

“Eggplant!”

The spiritual power of the parents pressed the shutter to record this historic moment, and the smile will last forever.
