The Eternal Calamity of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 255 I don't understand why everyone is talking about this...

Soon after, the academy's higher-ups came and arranged a pristine land for Shi Hao. It was very vast, with towering sacred mountains and gathering dragon veins in the middle, making it a rare treasure land for cultivation.

As a matter of course, Shi Hao and Mo Dao moved in immediately.

"I heard that Wang Xi's fiancé is an exceptionally talented genius, very strong, and might cause you trouble in the future," Mo Dao suddenly said.

Shi Hao was taken aback by what he heard and glanced at him with some surprise. He hadn't expected that this honest boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes would have such a gossipy side. He couldn't tell at all.

“Don’t look at me, I heard it from someone else too,” Mo Dao replied.

"Never mind him, if he dares to come, just suppress him and that's it." Shi Hao waved his hand, unconcerned about his own troubles.

"Are you that confident?" Mo Dao couldn't help but ask.

In his eyes, Shi Hao was indeed very strong to be able to capture him, but he probably hadn't reached the point of being the best.

Moreover, there is currently an undercurrent of tension within the Heavenly God Academy, with many ill-intentioned eyes watching, because Mo Dao comes from a foreign land, which is a sensitive point.

"Don't be afraid. Since you've chosen to follow me, I'm sure I can protect you."

Shi Hao patted Mo Dao on the shoulder, looking very confident.

"We can handle the younger ones ourselves, and as for the older ones, we have people above us, two of them."

……

when!
The ancient bell tolled loudly, its resounding sound causing all the disciples of the Heavenly God Academy to look up at the clouds.

There, a large bell appeared, its form hazy and indistinct.

"It's a summons from the academy, indicating that an unparalleled expert is about to preach."

In an instant, the heroes, upon hearing the commotion, rushed to a certain location.

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Shi Hao strode out, Mo Dao followed closely behind, and they followed the group to the depths of the Heavenly God Academy.

Here lies a stone forest, with strangely shaped rocks in all shapes and sizes, and shrouded in mist, making it seem very mysterious.

In front of the Stone Forest, several towering cliffs rise majestically, their sheer drops creating a magnificent sight.

At the top of the cliff, many reclusive elders sat cross-legged, each with a solemn expression and dignified appearance.

It should be noted that any one of them is a supreme being, and even the most powerful families would treat them with the utmost respect outside the home.

The fact that so many important figures are appearing together means something big must have happened.

“You are all elites from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and you all know the purpose of establishing the Heavenly God Academy. Therefore, I will not waste any more words,” an elder said.

Upon hearing this, everyone held their breath, listened quietly, and dared not whisper.

However, the gazes of Shi Hao, the witch, and Wang Xi were quite interesting.

They saw Chen Wu, who was sitting leisurely among the elders, with a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged beside him.

Against the backdrop of a group of white-haired old men, the two men stood out so conspicuously, and judging from their positions, they were clearly the ones who held the highest status.

"Brother Weiyang Ke? The Grand Elder?" Shi Hao was very surprised, it was a huge surprise.

"Great chaos is about to break out, and the days of peace are numbered. Therefore, we have decided that it is time to pass down the immortal scriptures of the academy!" the Fourth Elder said slowly.

boom!
The crowd erupted in a frenzy, like a boiling pot.

It hasn't been long since you disciples entered the academy. We thought it would take one or two years or even longer, but we didn't expect it to be so fast!

At that moment, people suddenly realized that a great battle was truly imminent.

“The cultivation system of the previous era was very different from that of now. In order to learn it, one must master the corresponding symbols and scripts; otherwise, many Taoist techniques cannot be used.”

"Unfortunately, the world has changed drastically, and learning ancient methods is extremely difficult in this era. However, once one delves into them and builds upon them in this world, one will reap immense rewards." At the summit of the cliff, the Fourth Elder spoke solemnly and eloquently.

"As for now, the time to choose has come. Those who wish to switch to the ancient methods of immortal cultivation can stay, while those who choose to continue cultivating the methods of this world can leave."

……

Since we've started discussing ancient and modern methods, is a choice we need to make?
There was no ordinary person among them; they were all exceptional individuals, and they were naturally moved at this moment.

"Senior, what are the differences between the ancient methods and the modern methods? Could you explain them in more detail?"

"Yes, to which category does the immortal energy we've painstakingly cultivated fall? If we choose the path of this world, can we still continue on this path?"

At this moment, everyone raised questions and expressed their confusion.

Throughout history, the most straightforward standard for judging a young person has been their aura of immortality. Whether they possess it and how much it is, it's immediately obvious. If someone cultivates three strands of immortality, they are undoubtedly an unparalleled genius.

Most of the people present had cultivated immortal energy, which was the source of their confidence.

"I don't understand why everyone is talking about how modern methods are inferior to ancient methods? It's as if practicing modern methods will prevent you from becoming an immortal."

"Actually, you don't need to worry. It's hard to say which of these two systems is stronger. Here I can tell you that the reason why there are so few immortals in this world is mainly because the environment has changed."

"Immortal energy is merely a continuation of ancient methods. Even if you choose modern methods, it won't affect the future. Moreover, if you persist along the way, your future is limitless."

"At least, as far as we know, a group of people who cultivate the current method are already at the forefront and are no weaker than those who cultivate immortal energy."

On the rocky cliff, a group of old men spoke one after another, their words resounding and thought-provoking.

"Do the elders mean that those who have achieved enlightenment in this life, even without immortal energy, are enough to rival us?" Six-Crown King Ning Chuan suddenly asked, his beautiful face, which would make even women jealous, now filled with pride.

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Elder nodded and said, "Indeed, those people are extremely skilled, even astonishing us."

These words immediately caused a sensation.

"Please explain in detail, elders, and it would be best if you could provide some examples."

Ning Chuan continued to press for answers, his attitude respectful but clearly unconvinced and somewhat suspicious.

Even Shi Hao, who had undergone a complete transformation, was surprised. He truly couldn't believe that someone without a trace of immortal energy could rival him, because the difference in their combat power was simply too great.

Just then, Elder Meng Tianzheng, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up, saying, "I know you don't believe me, but most of the geniuses who specialize in worldly techniques are in another place, and you will meet them soon."

After saying that, he turned to look at Chen Wu beside him, who was lost in thought, oblivious to everything around him.

"Cough cough..." Meng Tianzheng coughed lightly twice.

"Sorry, I was thinking about something and my mind wandered," Chen Wu said with a smile.

Then, all eyes in the room turned to him, filled with curiosity, doubt, and disbelief...

"The Grand Elder just mentioned the Law of This World." Chen Wu looked around, his gaze sweeping over Shi Hao, the witch, and others. "In fact, there are already some people here who have reached the pinnacle of the Law of This World, and their potential is limitless."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Tianjiao was greatly surprised. Was he going to give an example on the spot?

Sure enough, in the next instant, Chen Wu raised his hand and suddenly pointed at the crowd.

what?
In the stone forest, a chubby boy stared in astonishment, his eyes wide open, speechless.

Because Chen Wu seemed to be pointing at him, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"It's you, Fatty, stop hiding."

As he spoke, Chen Wu remained expressionless, but a hint of a smile flickered deep in his pupils.
