Chapter 192: Heaven and Earth Reversal (End)

Divine Pine let out a startled cry. Before Lin Jing could realize what was happening, a terrifying Kong Xuan magic power erupted from within the academy. The magic power permeated the sky, and the horizon above the entire Hidden Dragon Academy instantly turned a murky gray.

In an instant, dozens of massive Nascent Soul avatars, Heaven and Earth Primordial Spirits, and even Void Profound phenomena emerged. The chaotic aura caused the students cultivating within the academy to rush outside to investigate the anomaly.

“Who dares to invade the academy!”

Numerous academy experts looked around. The three Void Profound deans stood at the center of the academy, each atop their own Void Profound supreme treasure. Immense spatial power radiated from them, clashing against the spatial grand array that sealed and enveloped the academy.

The three deans of Hidden Dragon Academy were all at the Void Profound Realm. Lin Jing had even met one of them, a Vice Dean with a goatee, once before.

At this moment, the three of them looked grim, even finding it somewhat inconceivable. They weren’t surprised by the presence of invaders, but rather by the spatial fluctuations enveloping the academy, which even the three of them working together could not break.

Logically, this situation was almost impossible unless a Dao Inquiry Stage powerhouse took action. However, Dao Inquiry Stage powerhouses in this world were few and far between. Even if one did act, why would they pay attention to a small academy? Although important, this place was not considered a vital location of the Ancient Kingdom!

“It’s not the Dao Inquiry Stage; it’s the Celestial Palace Compass.” Suddenly, among the three deans, a White-haired woman noticed the anomaly in the Void Realm.

An illusion was projected from the Void Realm. He stood upon a white compass, his face and attire obscured, but his body was entwined with Yin Qi. Through his magic power, the three academy deans immediately understood who the visitor was.

“Yin Corpse Sect.”

It was a Yin Corpse Sect Cultivator who had come carrying a supreme treasure with spatial attributes.

“Indeed, I trust you have been well.” The illusion spoke slowly: “Many thanks to the three of you for repeatedly disrupting my Yin Corpse Sect’s grand plans. This time, I have come to return the favor! This ‘Celestial Palace Compass’—do you recognize it?”

“Nine Infant Demon Lord, you seek death!” The academy’s Head Dean was furious and destroyed the illusion with a single blow, but he was powerless to stop the operation of the Celestial Palace Compass.

Just as the illusion dissipated, an inconceivable spatial power was fully activated. Soon, the figures of students began to vanish directly, and even the teachers at the Nascent Soul Stage were teleported away one by one, unable to resist.

“We’re doomed. This is a treasure from the Celestial Palace Ruins. Rumor has it that it fell into the hands of the Gu God Sect; how could it be in the hands of the Yin Corpse Sect now?”

While resisting the spatial teleportation power, Divine Pine transmitted a long string of information into Lin Jing’s mind. At this moment, Lin Jing was still somewhat unclear about what exactly was happening.

“Senior Divine Pine.”

“The Gu God Sect and the Yin Corpse Sect must have joined forces. This Celestial Palace Compass is a teleportation tool; it doesn’t possess any destructive power, nor does it follow any patterns. It is a tool for irregular teleportation.”

“Precisely because there are no patterns to speak of, even a great Cultivator of the Void Profound Realm who is proficient in spatial power cannot hope to crack the compass’s teleportation power in a short time, let alone intercept the lives being teleported out.”

“In short, any life covered by the compass will be randomly teleported to a location—completely random. It seems quite useless and cannot cause any damage, but in specific circumstances, it still has its uses. For example, to target you!”

“After all, Hidden Dragon City is guarded by Void Profound experts and is close to Tian Yuan Ancient City. Even if the three great demon Sects sent out all their experts, they couldn’t hope to break through in a short time. It would be very difficult to kidnap you from this city and leave the Ancient Kingdom safely.”

“But the Gu God Sect is after your Ice Soul Gu, and the Yin Corpse Sect is after your Longevity Physique, yet you’ve been hiding in the academy. Since they can’t catch you in Hidden Dragon City, they had to change strategies and forcibly teleport you away from the academy.”

“Even if the location is random, as long as you lose the academy’s protection, they have a much higher probability of catching you. Besides, scattering the academy students everywhere will subject the academy to the influence of various Sects, which counts as their revenge for the academy experts disrupting their grand plans.”

“Kid, I can’t resist this teleportation power for much longer. Take this; it can isolate the secrets of heaven to a certain extent, preventing people from divining your location. I will find you as soon as possible. During this time, try your best to find a way to survive on your own. You’d better have some good luck and not get teleported into some demon Sect or Yao Beast’s nest!!!”

Divine Pine transmitted all his instructions to Lin Jing’s mind in one breath and threw a leaf into Lin Jing’s Storage Pouch, after which Lin Jing’s figure vanished directly.

Under Divine Pine’s gaze, the teleportation power of the Celestial Palace Compass was terrifying. Aside from the three Pet Beasts that were regarded as one with Lin Jing due to their contract, even the countless Mosquito Beasts within Lin Jing’s two Ten Thousand Beasts Circles were stripped from the circles, each one being independently and randomly teleported to unknown lands.

In an instant, Lin Jing lost this incredibly precious army of Vicious Beasts.

Lin Jing was teleported away with his heart practically bleeding. Before his figure vanished, he suddenly looked toward the direction where the Yin Corpse Sect Cultivator’s illusion had dissipated.

“You bastards of the Yin Corpse Sect, disrupting my quiet cultivation and stealing my mosquito swarm—I will remember this grudge.”

“Damn it, my Longevity Physique.” Divine Pine also cursed loudly. Not long after, it too found it difficult to resist the teleportation power, and its form instantly vanished from within the academy, teleported to parts unknown.

That day.

A piece of news that shocked the Ancient Kingdom swept through the Nine Regions. Demon Cultivators from the Yin Corpse Sect, carrying a treasure from the Celestial Palace, launched a terrifying attack on the academy. Hundreds of prodigies from various cities and Sects within the academy, and even the academy’s masters and teachers,

Were all teleported to unknown locations.

Although a group of students was very lucky and remained within the Nine Regions of the Ancient Kingdom after being teleported, over eighty percent of the geniuses completely lost their trail within the Ancient Kingdom,

With no one knowing where they had been sent.

Although the Ancient Kingdom was large, compared to the entire Tianyuan Continent, it was only one region and not the whole world.

Beyond the Ancient Kingdom, there were the Mist Forest, the Cloud Sea Mountain Range, Qingzhou, Martial Emperor City, the Snowfield, the Western Desert, and the Boundless Sea outside the Tianyuan Continent.

The probability of still being located within the Ancient Kingdom after a random teleportation was not very high.

Regarding this incident, the Ancient Emperor was furious. However, because the Ancient Kingdom and the Snowfield were currently in a state of war, the Ancient Kingdom could not temporarily mobilize more manpower to counterattack the Yin Corpse Sect and search for the missing geniuses.

Meanwhile.

After the academy geniuses were teleported to various places, countless members of the Gu God Sect began searching for traces of the Ice Soul Gu.

Within the Yin Corpse Sect, a large number of Disciples also carried Magic Treasures for searching for special Physiques, intending to capture the academy geniuses who had been scattered outside the Ancient Kingdom.

The two great demon Sects took advantage of the Ancient Kingdom being bogged down in the mire of war to once again begin disrupting the kingdom.

For a time, the academy suspended its classes. Finding the academy geniuses lost across the continent became the academy’s primary mission—
