Chapter 54: The Real Reason for Decline and the True Face of the Inner Court
After Ian entered the inner courtyard, the first thing he saw was the desolation of the world. Apart from the rocks, there was no other thing around, not even a small grass. This made Ian confused. This is the legendary inner courtyard? This is still the foundation? In conjunction with the so-called inner courtyard is a foundation.
Just as Ian was petrified, he suddenly got a slap in the back of the head.
"Hey, why are you stupid? Why don't you go up with me, wait for you to fly by yourself!"
"Ah! Ah? Fly? Where to go?"
When the old dean saw Ian's expression, he knew that Ian probably thought the stone forest in front of him was the inner courtyard, and he was a little amused and crying.
"Boy, how could this be an inner courtyard? Look up and see above you, that is the real inner courtyard!"
The old dean's words made Ian subconsciously raise his head, but was shocked again. An island was floating above Ian's head. No, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that the island is floating, to be precise, it is a million square kilometers of land. There are many floating islands around this floating land. If you count it carefully, there are almost thirty. The total area is almost equivalent to a medium-sized city in the Vlar Empire.
Seeing this, Ian's chin could not close. Ian never thought that the inner courtyard of Tianji Academy would float in the air. This was a fucking miracle.
"Former senior, this, this, this floating thing, is the inner courtyard?"
"Hey, you guy, you just don't have much knowledge. Floating islands are actually not a rare thing. The main hall of the Temple is also on a floating island. In fact, the entire Tianji Academy was once a floating island. No, to be precise, it should be floating land. At that time, the total area of the entire Tianji Academy was 12.63 million square kilometers, which was equivalent to the country of the three empires, and the combined size.
At that time, our Tianji Academy did not have any distinction between internal and external academies. However, later, for some reasons, the Temple united the three empires to jointly attack our Tianji Academy. In the end, our tens of millions of square kilometers of college area were only a little left. Other lands were either divided by the Temple or destroyed in the war. In the end, there was only such a little left. And that was the only one left. It was that dean of that generation who was still sent to other spaces for preservation with his own strength and left the space coordinates. It was not until the Tianji Academy entered the decline and the Tianji Academy was intervened by several other forces that we quietly welcomed this floating island back."
The old dean's tone was filled with pride, anger, and unwillingness. He, who had experienced the glorious era, now he saw less than one-tenth of the land at that time, would probably not feel good. In other words, being furious may not be enough to describe the old dean's anger.
"Okay, these are all past events. Next, I will take you up there. I hope that in the next day, you can find what you want in the library. Speaking of which, this land is the most comprehensive piece of the library, and the books in it can be said to be the most comprehensive, and even compared with the volume of the temple's collection, it is not inferior. However, the temple does not reveal all history, and the storage method has changed from paper books to some video materials. Oh, forget it, I won't say much, you will know when you go."
After that, the old dean rushed Ian without hesitation, and then rushed directly towards the floating island in the sky. The moment the old dean moved, Ian suddenly felt a gust of wind, like a sharp blade, blowing towards him. The wind was far higher than ordinary wind, and this thing could even condense automatically to form some things that were against the will of heaven. Even if there was a wind in a certain area for a long time, these winds might hatch the wind spirit.
At present, a gust of wind blew on Ian's body, where Ian was wrapped in clothes, and even cut open. Those who were not wrapped had even cut many wounds. It was not easy to get hurt on Ian's body. In desperation, Ian had to wrap his body with holy power, but found that the brisk wind could even cut his holy power, which shocked Ian. He always thought that only Zhanying could do this. Of course, this was also related to Ian's lack of strength in holy power.
After Ian enjoyed the gale of the old dean's five-minute flight at full speed, they finally arrived at the inner courtyard of Tianji Academy, the real location. The moment when his feet landed, Ian quickly wiped his eyes, wanting to see what the inner courtyard of Tianji Academy looked like as soon as possible.
But when Ian opened his eyes, the scene in his eyes made Ian a little disappointed. Because what he saw in his eyes was not as tall as he imagined, nor was it as he imagined, and it was not as prosperous as he imagined. In front of Ian, there was a shopping street with everything on the street, such as those who sold clothes, snacks, various refining materials, and even those who sold natural and earth treasures. This scene was almost the same as any city in the human world.
"Why, boy, are a little disappointed?"
The old dean was very sensitive to the change in Ian's mood, and Ian did not deliberately hide it and nodded.
"Haha, little guy, do you know why the Tianji Academy was surrounded by four major forces in the past? Logically speaking, it is just an academy that we can die. There is no need to use almost all humanity to encircle us. But that's what they did. Do you want to know why?"
"I heard Zoe say that it seems to be because of a major chaos about the Dark Holy Cultivation."
