Chapter 158 - The Heavenly Tian Academy

Everyone watched as the creatures began digging an incredibly deep hole. 

Everything was just so intriguing that they couldn't help poking at Butler Sheng for answers.

"Mr. Sheng... Mr. Sheng, what exactly is the Grandmaster trying to hurry?"

"Yeah. Just watching it is giving me goosebumps." Mina added.

"That's right. I don't know if it's just me, but I just can't stay calm in such a place. Have you all forgotten that we were almost swallowed by those things earlier on?!" Killnoff said, cautiously looking around the big open space like crazy. 

F***! What the hell kind of mission had Old Gia sent them for?

As a trained military pilot, he had never felt so insecure and frightened in his entire life!

Nonetheless, he understood that only when being around Dorian would he be safe. 

Gulp. 

He swallowed hard, seeing more and more eyes now reveal themselves from amidst the busy jungle circling them. 

"Guys... Guys... I think we have company again~~."

Bubuum.

Instantly, everyone's heart fell deep into their fellows. 

The air grew brittle, so much so that it could snap away like a twig with just a little push. 

The fear that had left everyone quickly returned, making their hands shake with uncontrollable tremors.

Eyes. Eyes. Eyes of various shapes were all staring at them from within the forests.

Only this time, they were trying to assess whether some of those eyes belonged to any evil creatures or not. 

Oh no! The invisible wall had already been destroyed. So what should they do if something dastardly sneaks up on them?

What were they? What were they? 

"They're just ordinary."

"Ah-..."

Listening to Dorian, everyone was quick to out down their worries, smiling awkwardly

Hey... Who knew that they would be able to have jump scares in real life, as though they were in an actual movie? 

Now they understood how movie characters felt. 

Hmph! Watching from behind the screen, it was easy to criticize, but try being in their shoes, and you'll understand their pain!

.

~Thrthrthrthrthrthrthr~

The animals dug the hole to a satisfying depth.

"That's enough," Dorian said, taking out a blinding globe from thin air.

What?!!!!

Everyone placed their hands over their heads subconsciously.

No one could see a single thing, as the light was so binding, making them feel a strong, majestic eminence radiating from it. 

Powerful! Powerful! Too strong!

The feeling was bizarre but comfortable.

It was as though the light was the true essence of humanity... The cradle of life, so to speak. 

And while everyone was momentarily blinded, Dorian calmly dropped the core into the hole, flicking his wrist to push all the soil back in place. 

[Core planted. 40 seconds to more activation... 39... 35...~]

Blurry. Blurry. Blurry.

The blindness was real.

And with just 8 more seconds left on the clock, many animals could see, while for them, the humans, it was only during the 5-second mark that they could finally see clearly.

F***! What the hell was that?

(0∆0)

.

Everyone stared at each other momentarily, blinking their teary eyelids away. 

Hell!

What just happened? And what was that staring light they just witnessed?

They knew that Dorian had just buried something, but what?

Everyone was in a state of confusion, looking at the hole that had now been buried up. 

However, before they could fully understand the situation, the pebbles on the grounds slowly began to dance.

~Pap. Pap. Pap. Pap. Pap...

Eh?

Everyone was confused at first until the dances became too vigorous to bear.

Earthquake? Earthquake? Earthquake!!!

Mommy... What's going on here?

The situation was so fierce, as though it were the worst earthquake in the history of mankind. 

The floor shook so hard that their legs could move, wobbling back and forth dangerously. 

Everyone had no choice but to fall to the ground, listening to the many sounds of creatures all over the island, exclaiming in shock. 

~Grgrwgrwgrwgrw~

The poor white tigers beside them became house cats, trying to find comfortable positions, resting their heads down with deep fear in their eyes.

Everyone looked on worriedly. But seeing Dorian still standing there like a firm pillar, they somehow felt safe.

.

Ding!

['Host, the core's routes have now safely grown towards every path and region within the island. All evil qi has been purified, and shielding is completed. The island is successfully masked and undetected... Host, you may now choose to activate the Academy.']

'Good... Do it then.'

['As you wish, host.']

With that, the system went to work.

~Boom!

The grounds shook even more, with some rushing way up to the sky like canyons.

Some places sank, and some places went high. Waterfalls flew in many directions that defied physics!

The land, the land... The land was turning into something unbelievable.

And this alone made everyone speechless to their cores. 

Abby wiped their eyes numerous, trying to make sure they weren't dreaming.

But that was just the beginning of it all. 

Up next, countless ancient buildings fell from the heavens with several powerful swoops.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The buildings were towering and very intimidating. 

All around them, changes were occurring, and even the land they were standing on had begun to change.

Maybe they couldn't see what was happening at the island's perimeter, but Dorian could.

The entire island picked itself from the ocean and moved to another location like lightning. 

That is, the coordinates of the island itself had now changed. 

Due to the heavy laws now placed on the island, one could literally sail right through it as though they were passing through a portal, without them noticing anything fishy. 

They would appear at the other end of the island in no less than a second, continuing their journey cluelessly. 

The entire island space had now been protected by the heavens, making it impossible for anyone to find it. 

It was akin to a mysterious island that some would say was a legend. 

.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! 

Dorian glanced at the magnificent Academy that was now as big as a Sect, with a slight smile on his face.

The Heavenly Tian Academy?

Good... 

Well then, it seemed like it was finally time to send out the admission notices.
