Chapter 1061 - Slapped Flying
Liu Wuxie approached the Celestial Lunar Lake at speed.
Dense spiritual energy blanketed the sky, clashing with waves of pure yang energy that danced and twisted together. They resembled two schools of fish weaving together mid-air, eventually transforming into spiritual rain that cascaded gently over the lake.
Was the lake water this saturated with spirituality? Could there be a supreme-grade spirit vein beneath the Celestial Lunar Lake?" Liu Wuxie muttered in surprise as he moved closer.
The lake's surface shimmered with spiritual liquid, yet no one dared set foot in it. Everyone remained at the lake's edge, quietly absorbing the spiritual energy and laws drifting from its depths.
Disciples of varying cultivation levels gathered around the shore. Some had reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Profound Realm, and a few even stood at the Earth Profound Realm. The weakest, at the lower levels of the Spirit Profound Realm, could only cultivate on the fringes, unable to approach the best spots already claimed.
The Heavenly Spirit Celestial Academy upheld the rule of survival of the fittest. The elders rarely interfered, even if someone died in competition. Brutal as it was, such a trial by fire forged the academy's elite.
Liu Wuxie advanced along a winding path, advancing steadily toward the location he had previously marked. As he progressed, he noticed the crowd thinning around him.
"Strange. Why is no one here?" he murmured, puzzled. By all signs, this spot was ideal for cultivation. Yet, the area was completely deserted.
He scanned his surroundings, but sensed no danger. So, he lowered his guard.
"Look! Someone's heading over there!" a disciple exclaimed, spotting Liu Wuxie approaching the overgrown path.
"Another fool courting death," someone sneered before closing their eyes and returning to their meditation.
