The First Academy in the Cultivation World

Ling Yan'er, Su Hongxiu and Ling Ziye searched for the entire night, almost plowing the entire Lingyun City inside and out. They found a total of 27 formations of various sizes. The largest one was twice as big as the one they found in the cloth shop at the beginning, and the smallest one was only the size of a table.

Three children were also found: Zhou Ya, Xu Chun, and Chen Chen.

These three children were just like Song Zixuan before them, all of them were weak and unconscious. When the alchemist Su Hongxiu found them, she fed each of them a pill to strengthen their bodies and replenish their vital energy. Then Ling Ziye took them back and placed them in the City Lord's Mansion.

It is still unknown whether these four children can wake up, and the evil cultivator has not been killed yet, so it is naturally not appropriate to reveal the news.

Moreover, Song Zixi, who disappeared in the end, was never found anywhere.

He had to prepare for the worst. He was still by the side of the demon cultivator. What he feared most now was that the demon cultivator would take him hostage, or... directly kill him to vent his anger.

Ling Yan'er looked at the four lying together. The housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion invited a doctor to come and look after the four children. She also wanted to lie down. She was really sleepy after being busy all night.

Su Hongxiu sent Ling Yan'er back to her room and asked her to have a sleep first. After all, there was really nothing she could do for the rest.

Ling Yan'er fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow, but Su Hongxiu and Ling Ziye rushed to the location of the magic cultivator who was doing homework.

Song Mingcheng and Dongfang Zichu were setting up the battle formation. While Song Mingcheng was setting up the battle formation, he looked at Dongfang Zichu as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Who would have thought that he, a Yuanying stage cultivator, who thought he was not proficient in formations but was better than most but not most, was still no match for someone who was only in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Although Dongfang Zichu is obviously not a human, he is only in the Foundation Establishment stage! Isn't this purely discouraging?

Seeing Su Hongxiu and Ling Ziye arrive, Song Mingcheng calmed down and asked, "What's the situation?"

"Except for Song Zixi, the other children have been found and are all still alive, but their condition isn't good. Especially the three mortal children, we don't know if they can survive." Su Hongxiu said, "We've found twenty-seven of the formations, and we don't know when the demonic cultivators started. What about you? How's the formation doing?"

"The Nine Shadows Locking Formation has been set up." Song Mingcheng glanced at Dongfang Zichu again. Although he provided the materials, it was Dongfang Zichu who set up the formation. "The Nine Shadows Locking Formation is just about finished."

"Where is that demon cultivator?" Su Hongxiu asked.

"The guards are watching him, so there shouldn't be any problem." Song Mingcheng said.

Su Hongxiu nodded. Like Ling Ziye, she didn't understand the formation.

After the formation was set up, the three of them headed towards the demon cultivator's house. When they got close, Song Mingcheng asked the guard, "What's the situation?"

"I have been watching him the whole time. He slept in the room all night and didn't move." The guard replied

But Song Mingcheng intuitively felt that something was wrong. After pushing the door open, this feeling reached its peak. He was also a demon cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage. The previous times he discovered the demon cultivator, he had tried to escape, but this time, the other party did not move at all, which was completely inconsistent with the other party's temperament.

You can't say that he knew he was in the formation and planned not to escape. That's simply impossible.

The guard stepped forward and lifted the quilt, and everyone discovered that the person lying on the bed was Song Zixi, who had not been found before, and the demon cultivator was nowhere to be found.

Song Zixi's situation was the same as that of several other children. Song Mingcheng called him several times but failed to wake him up, but he deliberately made his heartbeat stronger than that of the other children.

The guards searched the house inside and out, but found no demon cultivators, not even a secret room.

The evil cultivator disappeared quietly at some point, leaving behind only a decoy to make people think that Song Zixi was him.

Song Mingcheng picked up Song Zixi and said, "It seems that the demon cultivator has left a long time ago. Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion first."

It was already afternoon when Ling Yan'er woke up. She was completely woken up by hunger and had not eaten breakfast or lunch.

After Ling Yan'er woke up, she found that she was covered in dust and had slept in the bed. The four pieces of bed set were also covered in dust. She was so sleepy at the time that she didn't notice anything at all.

When Ling Yan'er came out of the shower, the maid in the yard brought her food, and then diligently took apart the sheets and quilt covers in Ling Yan'er's room and took them to wash.

After Ling Yan'er finished eating, she walked out of the room and saw Ling Ziye and Su Hongxiu sitting in the yard in a daze. Even Dongfang Zichu was sitting between them in a daze.

"Why are you like this?" Ling Yan'er asked, "Were you unable to kill the demon cultivator?"

Su Hongxiu nodded: "When did the demon cultivator disappear? Song Mingcheng clearly called the guards to keep an eye on him immediately."

"Oh, the demon cultivator ran away when the competitor's team came over." Ling Yan'er said, "Three Yuanying stage cultivators came not far away. He sensed that he didn't run away because he was betting that we were just passing by. But then four or five more Yuanying stage cultivators and a dozen Jindan stage cultivators came later. He must have been really stupid not to run away."

"Then why didn't you tell me if you knew it?" Su Hongxiu asked.

"No one asked," Ling Yan'er said, "and being able to learn the formation in one night is already quite good."

"Yes, Song Mingcheng and I not only learned it, but also set up the formation. When we pushed open the door of the magic cultivator's room with great anticipation, we found that there was no magic cultivator inside, only Song Zixi." Dongfang Zichu said quietly.

Ling Yan'er felt herself sweating profusely, so she quickly changed the subject: "Song Zixi has been found, that's good news. Are those children awake yet?"

Su Hongxiu shook her head: "He hasn't woken up yet, he's just maintaining his vital signs."

These words were somewhat heavy: "Can you still wake up?"

"I don't know." Su Hongxiu said, "A lot of blood has been drained from their bodies. I don't know what the demon cultivator fed them. Their blood is all golden."

"Golden blood?" Ling Yan'er's eyes widened. "This is too amazing, isn't it? Is the blood of a demon cultivator golden? Is there something else in the blood?"

"The blood of demon cultivators is also red, there is no golden blood." Dongfang Zichu said: "On the contrary, the blood of demons can be blue, green, and white, but there is no golden color like this."

"So how did the evil cultivator make them have golden blood?" Ling Yan'er asked curiously.

Su Hongxiu spread her hands: "Who knows."

"Then I'll go over and take a look." Ling Yan'er said, "Want to go with me?"

Su Hongxiu stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go with you to take a look."

Dongfang Zichu silently flew onto Ling Yan'er's shoulder: "When you look at them, be mentally prepared."

Ling Yan'er was still thinking about what kind of mental preparation she should make. Hadn't she already seen it when she rescued the person this morning? It wasn't just that he hadn't recovered, it wasn't like she hadn't seen it before.
