Chapter 57         Heaven and Earth Turn Upside Down

"After the Jianfeng Competition, the Seven Academies Competition is about to begin. The three of you will go together."

Baili Peak's master nodded and said this before turning to leave.

"Wait a moment, Peak Master."

Just as Baili Peak's master was leaving, Chu Xiaotian quickly followed him.

"What's the matter?"

Seeing Chu Xiaotian stop him, Baili Peak's master asked in confusion.

"I want to obtain the Great Wilderness Energy."

Chu Xiaotian directly stated his purpose for coming to the wilderness peak.

"Great Wilderness Energy?"

Hearing Chu Xiaotian's words, Baili Peak's master, the chubby boy, and even Xi'er all looked at him in shock, speechless for a long time.

"Is that your purpose for coming here?!"

After a long silence, Baili Peak's master broke the silence and looked at Chu Xiaotian with a smile.

"Yes."

Chu Xiaotian nodded without evasion.

The people of the wilderness peak were kind, and there was no need for Chu Xiaotian to continue hiding his purpose.

"Now that your strength has reached the Xuanling Realm, and your identity is that of a direct disciple, you are qualified to obtain the Great Wilderness Energy."

"But you only have one chance. If you fail this time, you will no longer have this opportunity."

"Are you ready to go for comprehension now?"

Baili Peak's master asked Chu Xiaotian.

"Yes."

Chu Xiaotian nodded and agreed, planning to go for the comprehension of the Great Wilderness Energy right away, hoping to finish before the Seven Academies Competition.

"Wait here for me, I will go and inform the headmaster."

"What about you two? Do you want to try?"

Baili Peak's master nodded and asked.

"We don't plan to for the time being."

Both the chubby boy and Xi'er laughed and said.

"Alright."

After inquiring, Baili Peak's master turned and left. Soon, Jian Chi and Baili Peak's master returned to the wilderness peak together and led Chu Xiaotian to the back mountain of the wilderness peak, planning to open the secret realm and let Chu Xiaotian enter to comprehend the Great Wilderness Energy.

Chu Xiaotian's talent and strength were evident, and he indeed qualified to give it a try.

Therefore, Jian Chi and Baili Peak's master did not refuse.

Wilderness Peak, Back Mountain!

At this moment, there were only three figures on the entire back mountain of the wilderness peak.

These three were none other than the headmaster of Shenjian Academy, Jian Chi, Baili Xuan, the master of the wilderness peak, and Chu Xiaotian.

"Are you sure?"

Jian Chi looked at Chu Xiaotian and asked again for confirmation.

After all, opening the secret realm of the wilderness peak consumes a lot of resources, so it needs to be confirmed repeatedly.

At the same time, to obtain the Great Wilderness Energy, three conditions must be met.

First condition: Must be a disciple of the wilderness peak.

Second condition: Must become a direct disciple.

Third condition: Must reach the Xuanling Realm.

"Sure."

Chu Xiaotian nodded solemnly.

The reason he joined the wilderness peak was solely because the system mission required the Great Wilderness Energy to be successful.

Only by obtaining the Great Wilderness Energy would the high-level mission be completed.

"Alright, step back."

Jian Chi nodded without saying much more, then instructed Chu Xiaotian and Baili Xuan.

"Open!"

As he spoke, nine spirit stones appeared in Jian Chi's hands.

The spirit stones contained rich spiritual energy, even more abundant than the spiritual energy absorbed from the world.

In the entire Northern Yan Country, spirit stones were extremely rare and precious, and ordinary people might not even see them in their lifetimes.

The nine spirit stones flew out in nine different directions towards the back mountain of the wilderness peak, forming a huge spiritual array.

"Boom boom boom!"

Jian Chi's hand seals changed rapidly, too fast to see clearly.

In an instant, the spiritual energy of the entire world boiled.

The nine spirit stones, like the eyes of an array, ignited the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Within ten and a hundred feet of radius, the spiritual energy rapidly attracted towards the back mountain of the wilderness peak.

"Thump thump thump!"

Suddenly, the entire Shenjian Academy felt a tremor, as if the heaven and earth were turning upside down, and the mountains and earth were cracking.

The clouds in the sky disappeared, revealing a huge crack, as if the sky itself had broken.

The ground was shaking uncontrollably.

Suddenly, a beam of spiritual energy connected to heaven and earth, and then the nine spirit stones burst out with all their spiritual energy and brilliance.

"Whoosh!"

A sound of breaking air resounded, and then a ten-feet-tall spiritual

 energy light gate appeared between heaven and earth.

With the emergence of the light gate, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth boiled to the extreme, pouring in fiercely.

"Go in."

The energy of the nine spirit stones could not maintain the light gate for too long. Moreover, even if one enters the wilderness secret realm, they will be ejected from the secret realm after a month, regardless of success or failure, and naturally, there is no need to worry about being able to come out again.

"Okay."

Hearing Jian Chi's voice, Chu Xiaotian nodded solemnly.

With a gust of wind under his feet, he moved instantly, turned into a figure, and rushed into the light gate in an instant.

"Crack!"

The moment Chu Xiaotian entered the light gate, it shattered instantly into countless light spots and ceased to exist.

"Hopefully, he will be successful."

As the light gate disappeared, the entire abnormal phenomenon between heaven and earth completely vanished without a trace, and everything returned to calm. Jian Chi calmly said.

"Yes, his talent is very strong, already surpassing Xiao Pangzi and Xi'er. If anyone has the best chance to obtain the Great Wilderness Energy, it should be Chu Xiaotian."

Baili Peak's master commented.

"Yes, you're right."

Jian Chi nodded, then left the wilderness mountain and returned to the main peak, comforting the shaken disciples and elders.

He informed them that the anomaly just now was caused by him.

This revelation shocked many disciples and elders who didn't know, while those who had been in the Shenjian Academy for a long time understood what had just happened.

Presumably, the wilderness secret realm was opened again, and the one who entered was obviously Chu Xiaotian!

"Whoosh!"

A thunderous sound echoed, and a huge crack appeared in the sky.

The crack appeared quickly and disappeared just as fast.

It didn't attract anyone's attention, nor did it draw the notice of any powers.

"Thud!"

A figure suddenly appeared in a desolate land.

There, the mountains were yellow, the water was blue, and the ground was devoid of life, with desolation constantly emerging. Even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was extremely scarce, making it impossible to cultivate.

Just then, a figure suddenly descended into this desolate land, the only place with mountains and water.

"Where is this?"

Chu Xiaotian slowly opened his eyes, feeling a throbbing pain in his body.

The journey through the spatial gate to this place was demanding on the body and required reaching the Xuanling Realm.

Even though Chu Xiaotian had achieved both, his body still suffered not insignificant damage and many hidden injuries.

"Have I arrived?"
