1679 Three Dangers Of Chaos!
Wang Teng and the guide landed on the streets of the buildings on the island.
The buildings around him came into sharper focus, and it truly resembled a place just for cultivation. Everything here was so simple and austere.
Many people were sitting cross-legged on the roofs of the stone houses. They had varied appearances. Some had scales, others with horns, and a few even had a single eye on their foreheads. Each one of them was unique and bizarre in their own way.
There were many universe races gathered on this island.
These individuals were seated cross-legged on the rooftops, seemingly engrossed in deep contemplation. Some had their eyes closed, while others gazed up at the sky...
They gave off a powerful aura, and most of them were at the universe stage and above. Heaven-stage martial warriors were rare.
There were also many eternal-stage martial warriors!
However, their aura seemed to be confined within the stone houses and didnt get released.
This island has a long history. It has existed since the founding of the academy, the guide said.
It existed since the founding of the academy! Wang Teng was astounded.
The history of the academy seemed to be shrouded in mystery. No one knew exactly how far back it dated.
The history of the Seven Stellar Academies is incredibly long, the guide explained. Apart from a few reclusive and exceptionally powerful beings, or individuals with special status, I think no one knows when they appeared or who founded them, the guide explained.
Wang Teng nodded. He had heard such statements many times. After coming to the Stellar Academies, he was even more convinced of its profound mystery and ancient origins.
If those who had stayed in the academy for a long time didnt know about it, outsiders wouldnt know anything either.
These stone houses are unoccupied as long as their protective shields are not activated. You are free to choose any of them for your residence. The guide pointed at a stone house that hadnt been activated.
Alright, Wang Teng replied. This was similar to his mansion in the outside world. As long as no one lived here, he could stay here.
The academy was very casual when it came to lodging.
However, compared to the outside, the dwellings inside were indeed modest. Wang Teng didnt need to step inside to know that these stone houses only had basic facilities.
This is just a transit station. Theres nothing worth paying attention to, so you dont have to waste time here. The guide said, The opportunities of the Chaotic Uncharted lie beyond the islands, within the realms of chaos. It is there that you can contemplate and comprehend within the islands, just like the seniors.
He pointed at the powerful martial warriors who were in the midst of enlightenment.
If youre confident, you can go out and take a look.
However, youre too weak so I wont recommend that. You should stay on the island obediently for three months before leaving the Chaotic Uncharted.
I dont know what the academy is thinking. How can they let a freshman like you enter the Chaotic Uncharted?
Wang Teng listened to him attentively. His words werent pleasant to hear but they were the truth.
In the [Uncharted File], it was mentioned that the area beyond the islands was highly dangerous. Even some eternal stage powerhouses might perish if they venture outside.
Whats more, if he went out of the island, he might not be able to come back in time.
The academy only gave him three months. They probably wanted him to stay on the island to gain enlightenment.
But...
Wang Teng had always been one to defy conventions. Now that he finally had the opportunity to enter, he didnt want to confine himself to staying within the islands.
Whats more, he saw attribute bubbles in the chaotic zones outside.
He was a distance away but he could see the attribute bubbles with his eyesight.
It would be a shame not to seize this opportunity and make the most of it.
Of course, he wouldnt rush out like an idiot. He needed to make preparations.
What dangers are there outside? Wang Teng asked.
There are three types of dangers. The first is dimensional rifts. As the heavens and earth are in a state of chaos, dimensional rifts can appear unpredictably without any discernible pattern. For a low-stage warrior like you, they pose a significant threat, the guide said.
Dimensional rifts! Wang Teng nodded in deep thought. They shouldnt be a threat to me.
The second danger is the existence of creatures known as Chaotic Beasts. They are formed by condensing chaotic energy and have spontaneously become a living creature due to the unique nature of the Chaotic Realm!
They exhibit various forms and possess varying levels of strength. Some are equivalent to the planetary stage, the celestial stage, and even the cosmos stage. Others are equivalent to the heaven stage, the universe stage, and even the eternal stage. Hence, they are very dangerous.
Dont underestimate these planetary-stage or celestial-stage Chaotic Beasts. They are abundant in numbers and possess peculiar abilities. If youre not careful, even if you enter the Stellar Academies and can fight beyond your ranks, you will still die here.
The guide seemed to have seen through Wang Tengs plan and replied to him calmly.
If you want to leave the island, no one will stop you. However, you should stay within 3,000 kilometers of the island. Powerful martial warriors from the academy will clear this area regularly to ensure the proper functioning of the transfer islands. Thus, the Chaotic Beasts in this region are generally below the cosmos stage and relatively less dangerous.
Thank you for your reminder. Wang Teng thanked him hurriedly.
Theres no need for that. I just dont want to witness a promising freshman meet his end here, the guide said dismissively, waving his hand.
Mister, whats the third danger? Wang Teng asked.
The third danger is as dangerous as the Chaotic Beasts. Its called the Chaotic Forbidden Ground, the guide said.
Chaotic Forbidden Ground! Wang Tengs heart skipped a beat. Anything referred to as a forbidden ground wasnt a good place to be.
The forbidden areas on the Battle Planet were all extremely dangerous. If he wasnt strong enough, he might not have been able to pass the competition unscathed.
The Great Lightning Monster and the Oceanic Unicorn Whale were terrifying presences in forbidden areas. Normal celestial realm martial warriors would have a slim chance of survival if they met them.
The Chaotic Forbidden Grounds are perilous places born from within the chaos. Once you enter, you might not be able to escape, the guide explained. You must have heard that the Uncharted holds many opportunities, havent you?
Yes. Wang Teng nodded. He asked humbly, Is there a meaning behind this?
The Chaotic Forbidden Grounds are precisely where these opportunities lie. It depends on whether you have the ability to seize them, the guide smirked, his lips curling slightly as he spoke.
Wang Teng cursed in his heart.
The Uncharted [Uncharted File] didnt explain clearly. It merely mentioned that opportunities came with dangers, but it did not explicitly specify the extent of these dangers.
To think he even wanted to find them.
If he knew that the opportunities were in the Chaotic Forbidden Grounds, he wouldnt even think about it.
While Wang Teng was eager to explore beyond the islands, his priority was to ensure his safety. He intended to venture out cautiously to collect attribute bubbles and to closely comprehend various fundamental laws. That was his sole purpose.
He wasnt arrogant enough to touch the Chaotic Forbidden Grounds.
Honestly, the [Uncharted File] only cost him a few points. Why would anyone include such crucial information inside?
Wang Teng felt frustrated. He looked at the expression of the guide and felt even more frustrated. He felt that the other party was mocking him.
This guide seemed a little evil.
What dangers are there in the Chaotic Forbidden Grounds? Wang Teng couldnt help but ask.
The dangers are unpredictable. It could be the appearance of Chaotic Beasts or treacherous situations. Everything is uncertain, the guide said impatiently. Alright, Ive said all I needed to. My task is completed. The rest is up to you.
He turned into a beam of light and shot into the sky. In a blink of an eye, he disappeared in front of Wang Teng.
Tsk, this guide doesnt seem easy to talk to, but he did provide you with all the necessary information. His words are worth quite a few points. Round Balls voice appeared in Wang Tengs mind.
Another arrogant fellow. Wang Teng shook his head. Huh, why did I say another?
Round Ball smiled secretly. It asked, Are you planning to get out of the island?
Of course! Ive come all this way. I definitely want to explore the outside. Who knows when Ill have another chance to come in again? Wang Teng replied.
Be careful. Round Ball no longer tried to persuade Wang Teng. It knew it couldnt change Wang Tengs mind, and besides, it was also curious to see what the Chaotic Uncharted truly looked like.
Wang Teng glanced around him and found an empty stone house. He walked inside, and the protective shield of the stone house automatically activated. It was remarkably user-friendly.
He walked into the house to take a look. His speculation was right. The furnishings inside were extremely simple. There were only three rooms: a bathroom, a bedroom, and a cultivation room. There was nothing more than that!
Wang Teng walked to the roof. He wanted to experience the cultivation ground those formidable martial warriors were using.
Huh? Wang Teng walked to the roof and exclaimed in surprise. There were attribute bubbles here.
Originally, he had thought it was just an ordinary rooftop that was convenient for gazing at the manifestation of the laws of origin in the sky. However, he unexpectedly obtained a surprise gain.
Wang Teng immediately picked up the attribute bubbles.
Origin of Wood*10
Wood Domain*50
Origin of Wood*10
The three attribute bubbles merged into Wang Tengs body. Two were the Origin of Wood and one was the Wood Domain.
There werent many attributes but they were all useful for Wang Teng.
Wang Teng suddenly felt a hint of insight into the Wood Domain and a glimpse of understanding into the Origin of Wood forming in his mind.
It had been a while since these two attributes rose in value.
In the League Of Talents, no one could surpass him in terms of Wood Domain and Origin of Wood. Hence, he wasnt able to gain new enlightenment.
But, at this moment, the attribute bubbles he received on the roof allowed his understanding of the Wood Domain and the Origin of Wood to rise.
This feeling was amazing!
Why are there attribute bubbles here? Wang Teng was puzzled after absorbing the attribute bubbles.
Soon, he noticed the source of the issue. On the floor where the attribute bubbles were forming, he discovered some engravings and patterns. They seemed ancient, emanating unique and subtle energy.
I see. Wang Teng was enlightened. This is the enlightenment left behind by our predecessors.
