Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 589 - 12: I Will Reveal the Truth of the World
Sunlight and flames are the best weapons to combat demons and evil spirits, but the Twelve Laws do not fall under this category.
Wang Yunxiao did not understand the true strength of Bai Shanshan, only knowing that it should be several levels above his own. Today, he finally witnessed the other’s methods—it could literally be described as "covering the sky with one hand"!
Ordinary students were still clueless about the changes in the Real World, at most feeling a hint of coolness amid the sweltering heat of the late-autumn season. However, for students who had already come into contact with special affairs or who were born into the mystical side, the scene before them was enough to send shivers down their spines.
It was an invisible prison, resembling the Five-Finger Mountain with which Buddha suppressed the monkey demon, inverted over the entire school.
In the Real World, the campus remained serene and sunny, but in the school within the Outer Dimension, it had been roughly deconstructed and reassembled into an eerily styled building. Countless thick vines sprouted at a visible rate, completely engulfing the campus and ultimately forming a primeval realm comparable to the Shennongjia forest.
If not for the guidance of the silver-white Torchfire in the depths of the jungle, Wang Yunxiao would have almost thought he had crossed over into some strange Otherworld.
Yes, the school in the eyes of ordinary students remained just as it was. But the school in Wang Yunxiao’s eyes had split into dual worlds of reality and illusion.
Mu Yusheng bit his finger tremblingly, not daring to make a sound.
The jungle gave Li Mumu a strange familiarity. The Demon Qi inside her rejoiced and leapt, urging its master to reveal her true form and nature, to run and play unrestrained in this domain.
On the other hand, her witch’s bloodline issued an unprecedented Prophecy warning, vibrating her cerebral nerves like a mobile phone alarm at 7:30 in the morning, reminding her that an extremely terrifying presence was overlooking this realm with an indifferent gaze.
Fortunately, this anomaly lasted only a dozen breaths before it quietly dissipated, as if it had never existed. It was unknown how many people held their breaths, not daring to make any rash moves, until now they could finally exhale and slowly relax.
The Tang Siblings clung to the wall, their faces pale as paper.
"I feel like we can’t get out!"
Tang Moli’s face was filled with terror, and after the horrible anomaly ended, she could no longer maintain a connection with her family’s bloodline, as if she had been thrown into the Outer Dimension.
"Now’s not the time to worry about whether we can get out or not..."
Tang Ping’an looked at the text that appeared before him with a terrified expression.
Although the anomaly had disappeared, it did not leave without a trace.
Just as those students who noticed the disappearance of the anomaly were beginning to sigh with relief, a line of clear text abruptly appeared before their eyes.
"Nanke High School’s experimental teaching class will commence at 8 o’clock tonight, with 85 students expected to attend, 85 currently alive. Please arrange your affairs and be asleep by 8 p.m."
Is this some kind of death game?
Wang Yunxiao looked at the segment "85 currently alive" and was speechlessly silent.
You can’t scare people like that, what if you really scared a few to death?
The correct understanding of the number 85 should be that there are at least 85 students who could sense the anomaly just now.
Wang Yunxiao had over a dozen brothers himself, plus Chen Yan, Little Gourd, and some students who had shown talent last semester, like Zhou Qing, Jiang Yinyin... based on his knowledge, there were roughly twenty-five students who had shown talent.
In other words, this year at least sixty gifted freshmen were recruited.
Principal Zhou sure is bold, he’s not afraid of blowing up the school.
But if you look on the bright side, it also means that starting this academic year, the nation has finally embarked on a formal track when it comes to training special talents.
This is a good thing.
With Bai Shanshan making a move, the atmosphere in the entire school cleared up a lot all at once.
Those troublemakers no longer complained of back pain or headaches and obediently returned to their classes.
The entire afternoon was calm and uneventful, not a soul stood out like Liu Pangxie had.
At dinnertime, Mu Yusheng tried to freeload a meal again but was unceremoniously turned away by Wang Yunxiao.
Who could afford to feed a bottomless pit like you!
"Are you going to that experimental teaching class tonight?"
Wang Yunxiao tentatively asked Li Mumu.
"Why not take a look? I think it should be interesting."
Li Mumu behaved like a greenhouse flower full of curiosity.
"So, we’re going together?"
"Sure!"
Wang Yunxiao wasn’t worried about Li Mumu’s personal safety; her own maid, who always carried with her the two major school ghost stories, was already invincible.
What he mainly feared was that Miss Li’s strong curiosity might get her tainted by all sorts of messed-up stuff.
She’s already crazy... excuse me! She already has mental issues, and it would be troublesome if some sort of Echo Erosion induced a mental illness in her.
Li Mumu was also a bit concerned. With someone like Wang Yunxiao, who didn’t study properly, even if he really went to learn the martial arts secret manuals among the Twelve Laws, could he actually learn them?
Both of them had their own worries.
Chen Yan had been out of sight all afternoon, and without her to open the door, Wang Yunxiao and his brothers had only a rather dull option—sleep.
To enter the Outer Dimension through Dreamland.
Normally, the beginning of the month isn’t the best time to enter the Outer Dimension; instead, it’s more convenient for the demons and evil spirits of the Outer Dimension to invade the Real World. But at Qinghe Middle School, the rules have been forcibly twisted.
At eight o’clock in the evening, Wang Yunxiao opened his eyes in Dreamland.
He discovered himself lying on an old tree root, surrounded by a lush forest, with nobody else in sight.
He had no idea where he was, nor where his brothers had ended up.
Only the silver Torchfire lit in the distance marked the only clear direction.
He instinctively stood up to find his body was blurry and ethereal.
Like a ghost shadow.
At this moment, he heard a murmuring whisper, much like a song, coming from afar. An invisible force compelled him to fly towards the silver Torchfire.
He saw Chen Yan and also Bai Shanshan, who was wearing a Feather Garment and standing barefoot on a calm body of water.
Where did this water come from?
The Outer Dimension at this time bore no resemblance to its original form. Apart from the destroyed and reassembled school buildings, hardly anything from the original memory could be found. The playground had turned into a silent river, and the dim sky was now brilliantly starlit.
Could this be the power of the Great Commander?
To change the world with a single command?
Bai Shanshan opened her pupil-less eyes, her cold gaze swept over the gathering shadows from all directions, and she spoke slowly, "I will show you the truth of this world. How much you understand and perceive depends on each individual’s affinity with the laws. For those unambitious, there’s no need to force it; just treat it as nothing more than a dream in Nanke."
