Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

As the crowds converged, the entire square became packed with people, inevitably leading to congestion.

Guan Xun frowned slightly, then suddenly turned her head to look behind her, casting her gaze on the forest behind those towers. She could clearly feel the dense spiritual energy emanating from that direction.

Looking at the surroundings where it was difficult to move an inch, and the teachers directing the evacuation of the crowd in the distance, Guan Xun's eyes flashed, and her divine sense spread out from the soles of her feet, quickly extending towards the direction of the forest!

It was a space shrouded in mist, nestled in the forest. Guan Xun passed through the mist and came to a small bridge. The towering wall that seemed to pierce the clouds was on the other side of the bridge.

Sure enough! The place we explored last time is right here!

Her divine sense tried to explore a little further and arrived at the same position as before. This time, no one came to stop her.

Guan Xun's gaze slowly moved upwards, and he immediately gasped. He saw that a crack several feet long had appeared on the once majestic high wall!

White mist swirled within the giant crevice, spreading downwards and widening in distance. A vast and powerful spiritual energy surged forth, distorting the mist and causing the invisible spiritual energy to collide heavily with the tree branches, making the leaves tremble slightly. Even the river flowing beneath the stone bridge rippled continuously.

Such powerful spiritual energy! Even in the Celestial Realm where she used to live, she had never felt anything like it.

What kind of space is inside?

Guan Xun frowned, her dark pupils suddenly contracting as a surge of horror welled up inside her, and the words that were about to come out of her mouth were swallowed back down.

Within the enormous crack, a hemispherical object was seen resting against it. The object was red and exceptionally large, and the crack only covered two-thirds of its area.

What is this? !

Guan Xun was secretly alarmed, and then he saw that the spherical object was actually rotating slightly, and a black crystalline object slowly moved toward the gap.

She suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on her back, and the hairs on her pores stood on end.

This...it's actually an eyeball?!

The eyeballs seemed to be observing something, focusing on Guan Xun who was staring at her. The eyeballs moved up and down, and then glared hard! A strong gust of wind suddenly swept towards her, almost scattering her consciousness.

Then, the eyeball moved away, and in the layers of white mist, an indescribably enormous body vaguely appeared, and then it rammed into the cracks in the high wall again and again, trying to break out from inside!

With each impact, the entire forest trembled slightly, and the high wall looked as if it were about to crack into pieces.

Guan Xun's consciousness retreated slightly; she couldn't imagine just how big the thing inside was.

"Quickly! Strengthen the barrier!"

Several deep, aged voices rang out from within the mist. Immediately afterward, several exceptionally powerful spiritual energies surged forth, connecting around the high wall to form a colorful light curtain. Invisible spiritual energy collided with it, causing ripples of energy to spread rapidly.

Under the impact of spiritual energy, the colorful light screen trembled continuously, as if it were about to shatter.

 …

"Master! Master!"

Chi Rong's anxious voice came from her sea of ​​consciousness. Guan Xun immediately withdrew her consciousness and scanned her surroundings. She saw that the students had almost all left.

"What's wrong?" she asked in a low voice.

“This aura…” Chi Rong’s voice was unusually serious, “It’s somewhat like those creatures from the sea.”

"What are you waiting for! Get out of here and go to the square by the academy gate!" the teachers shouted. Guan Xun could no longer care about investigating the creature and could only follow the crowd away from the place.

"Master?! Your body... no, your divine sense... how come it's been locked on?!" Chi Rong suddenly exclaimed in alarm as they walked.

what? !

Guan Xun was startled. She hadn't sensed anything amiss with her divine sense. Could it be...? Remembering the gust of wind that thing had swept over her, her expression turned serious. It had locked onto her divine sense so easily?

With so many people over there, why did that thing specifically target her consciousness?

"How do I remove the lock?" she asked.

“There’s no way…unless we cut it off.” Chi Rong mimed slitting his own neck with his tail, somewhat helplessly, and muttered to himself, “How did that person bring such a creature to the continent?”

Guan Xun's brow twitched. With her current strength, she might not even be able to beat him in a fight, let alone cut him off. It would be more likely that she would be the one to cut off that thing.

I wonder if those old men can suppress it. If they can, what's the point of locking it down? It can't get out anyway.

 …

The colorful light curtain, like a dome, enveloped the four sides of the high wall. With each collision of the things inside, the light curtain vibrated violently.

Several elderly men hovered high in the air, continuously channeling their spiritual energy into the light screen. Their faces were flushed red, clearly indicating that they had reached their limit. Even so, cracks still appeared in the light screen.

"Where is the dean?!" one of the elders whispered. They had sent someone to inform the dean as soon as the problem arose, but so much time had passed and they still hadn't seen him.

"I don't know... Pfft!!" The other old man's eyes widened suddenly as he finished speaking, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body flew through the air and crashed into the rushing river.

With the loss of one person's spiritual power, the energy of the light barrier became clearly unbalanced, and the cracks on it grew larger and larger, on the verge of shattering.

"Hang in there!"

Suddenly, a shout came from afar, and an old figure flew over swiftly, his spiritual power directly filling the solid part of the light screen.

"I have already sent someone to the palace to deliver a message to the Imperial Tutor. Hold on a little longer, and the Imperial Tutor should arrive soon."

The dean had just been reassigned and was in relatively good spirits, but soon, a look of weariness appeared on his serious face.

This thing... is truly terrifying!

Although it can provide the academy with a unique and continuous supply of spiritual energy, it is still a major hidden danger.

When he founded the academy, he could have guessed that this day would come, but the Imperial Tutor said it was alright, so he had nothing to say.

The thing inside was like a madman, constantly ramming and crashing. Its long imprisonment had already pushed it to the brink of madness, so how could it possibly miss such an opportunity?

Its massive tail swung up to the top of the wall, then let out a chilling roar. Its dark red eyes were covered with black lines, like a spider web, which covered its entire eyeballs. With all its might, it swung its tail down!

"boom!!!"

A massive burst of energy erupted, and the high wall could no longer hold, collapsing with a large breach...

The light barrier formed by their combined strength shattered inch by inch, exploding in all directions, and the group of people were caught off guard and thrown heavily away!

The intense tremor instantly spread throughout the entire academy, and even Guan Xun, who was standing in the square, staggered.

She looked in the direction from which the powerful spiritual energy was surging, and her heart suddenly tightened.

Those old men don't seem to be very effective...

"This is terrible..."
