Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 956 - 857: Plane Differences (2)

"Oh, so that's how it is!"Mo Yan took a deep breath; what Duan Gujin told him now was something the Dean hadn't mentioned before.

Although they had received some books from the Ascension Academy, those books were just basic cultivation techniques.

Many martial artists, upon getting these basic cultivation methods, began to delve into the contents and started cultivating.

From Duan Gujin's words, Mo Yan judged that the other had quite some understanding of the affairs of the Divine World, which made him sigh with emotion.

"It seems that this Duan Gujin's origin is truly extraordinary!"

He had previously inquired about the Yuanzhen Continent and learned that it was a lower-level plane than the Chaotic Ancient Continent.

Generally, the lower the realm, the harder it is to cultivate.

Yet Duan Gujin somehow defied this rule, which left Mo Yan feeling very astonished.

He had previously asked Duan Gujin, and was informed that he had a good master.

Mo Yan did not doubt Duan Gujin's words, believing that Duan Gujin's master must be extraordinary.

"If Duan Gujin didn't act so oddly, we could be good brothers. But for some reason, I always feel his gaze on me is peculiar, sending a chill down my spine!"

Mo Yan didn't know that he had always misunderstood the meaning in Duan Gujin's eyes. He thought Duan Gujin's kindness was because he had taken a liking to his body, which made him feel troubled.

Especially after learning that he and Duan Gujin were arranged to stay in the same courtyard, Mo Yan even had thoughts of death.

He imagined if he was careless and got taken advantage of by Duan Gujin, how he would face himself then.

His face turned ashen, realizing he was utterly powerless to resist.

In terms of strength, he knew Duan Gujin was far more powerful than himself.

In terms of experience, there was no doubt; Duan Gujin was way beyond him.

Thankfully, they didn't share a room, as there were over a dozen others in the same courtyard.

Each room was equipped with arrays to block Divine Sense detection and defensive magic arrays to prevent peeping or ambushes from other martial artists.

That evening, everyone cultivated in their respective rooms.

A day passed quickly.

The next day, they attended classes at the Ascension Academy, where the teachers explained various basic cultivation knowledge to them.

The knowledge taught by the teachers was far richer and more complete than anything in the thirty thousand small planes.

Having learned similar knowledge in those thirty thousand small planes, they quickly understood what the basic cultivation knowledge was all about.

Understanding is one thing; mastering it is another.

Though the knowledge imparted by the teachers of the Ascension Academy wasn't much, mastering it required the disciples to practice diligently.

For most who could enter the Ascension Academy, understanding the content taught by the teachers could take just a day or two, but attaining cultivation effects depended on their individual fates.

After entering the Ascension Academy, Duan Gujin and the others realized they only needed to attend classes once a month, spending the rest of their time cultivating on their own.

During their cultivation period, they could even take leave to return to their own planes for cultivation.

However, they preferred to stay and cultivate there.

The primordial energy at this place was far more abundant than the primordial power in the thirty thousand small planes, making one day's cultivation here equivalent to two days in a demigod-level plane.

Such benefits were not to be wasted.

To their pleasant surprise, not far from the Ascension Academy was a city inhabited by living creatures from various planes of the Divine World.

The teachers at the Ascension Academy warned them not to act recklessly in the city just because they were disciples of the academy.

It turned out the inhabitants of that city were genuine natives of the Divine World, and they naturally harbored arrogance, superiority, and deep disdain for those from the thirty thousand planes.

Knowing the natives' views, the disciples of the Ascension Academy dared not act carelessly; they ventured into the city only in groups to explore the cities of the Divine World.

Only by visiting the cities of the Divine World could they realize the smallness of their own planes.

Only by meeting the spirits of the Divine World could they understand how vast and wonderful this world was.

Many discussed their experiences in the courtyard, talking about what they had witnessed in that city over the past few days.

"Who would have thought that in the Divine World, there exists a Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Tree capable of cultivating divine skills!"

"Exactly! There are truly many mystical creatures here. One day, as I was walking, I was suddenly struck by something unknown. Initially, I wanted to know who hit me, but then the thing that hit me spoke. Guess what I saw?"

"What did you see?"

The others became instantly interested.

"I finally realized that what hit me was a mantis no larger than a fist. You heard me right; it was a mantis. I didn't get angry; I was stunned. I was scared stiff because that mantis unleashed cultivation at Shattering Void Realm!"

The martial artist recalled the experience with lingering fear.

If someone in the thirty thousand small planes said they were hit by a mantis, if they mentioned encountering a mantis as small as a fist but at Shattering Void Realm, others would surely think they were insane, speaking nonsense.
