Chapter 22 Two Differences

Long Pinxuan glanced at the people and monsters who were practicing in the field, breathed a sigh of relief, and flashed back to his residence.

Countless energies gathered in the cultivation square, forming energy vortices.

Spiritual power and demonic power are actually both a kind of energy. Although they are intertwined in various ways, a strange balance is formed in the academy.

The vortex of demonic power is above the demon's head, and the vortex of spiritual power is above the human's head. They will not intertwine or collide, but because the concentration is relatively high, a lot of energy will gather around any practicing human or demon, and it is in line with their own characteristics.

It's like there's something in the academy that's integrating these energies.

The key point is that when these energies are absorbed, they are not as violent as in the past. Instead, they become abnormally gentle, easier to absorb, and more pure.

This was clearly felt by the cultivators and demons present.

Even if the energy concentration is not as strong as that of a training site, practicing for one day is equivalent to practicing for several days in other places.

The changes in the world caused by the earthquake in West Lake Academy directly affected the entire city of Hangzhou.

No matter they are human or monster, as long as they are in Hangzhou, they will look at the magnificent scenery above the West Lake in amazement.

Countless spiritual powers and demonic powers swarmed in and gathered madly towards the West Lake.

"What happened?"

"Some time ago, there was a demonic riot. I thought a rare treasure had appeared, but I didn't expect it to be..."

"Is it the same this time?"

"That direction is..."

"West Lake College!"

"The dean's academy?"

"I heard that West Lake College's first enrollment has been completed!"

"Is this the trend of students' cultivation after the dean's lecture?"

“Isn’t it terrible?”

"How many great demons and cultivators will that produce?"

"It's okay. We have disciples from the XX sect inside as well. Practicing in such a high concentration environment will definitely increase their cultivation!"

"I'm so jealous of those chosen monsters! If I were in there, I would definitely break through to become a great monster!"

All of a sudden, countless cultivators and monsters in Hangzhou were filled with thoughts, and one by one they set their goals: the next time West Lake Academy recruited students, no matter whether they accepted older students or not, they would all go and try!

On the outskirts of Hangzhou, a group of old men and several young people were riding flying swords and rushing towards this side.

"Hangzhou is in front of us. Hangzhou is a small city with not many geniuses, but it has its own local characteristics. You can learn a thing or two from it!"

The old man tried to persuade and instruct, but suddenly, his eyes gleamed and he looked towards Hangzhou.

However, I saw a huge energy vortex gathering in the sky above Hangzhou.

Is it possible that some big shot is making a breakthrough?

"I heard that monsters are prevalent in Hangzhou, and many practitioners are willing to come to Hangzhou for training. Could it be that some of my colleagues are making breakthroughs?"

The old man pondered, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes, "There is still a lot of demonic power in that energy! Could it be that both sides are breaking through at the same time?"

Can demons and humans break through peacefully at the same time?

It’s good to see that the monster is not caught!

This is impossible!

The old man shook his head and put this guess behind him.

The old man's doubts came out directly from his mouth, and the several young people he brought with him heard it. One of the girls suddenly asked, "Master, is it possible that a treasure has been born?"

The old man shook his head. He was not one of those watered-down cultivators who couldn't even differentiate between the two kinds of energy fluctuations: the energy vortex generated by a breakthrough and the birth of a treasure.

"This is also a misunderstanding that you may make if you don't normally go out! Especially when there is such a big scene, if you can't tell whether it is someone breaking through or a treasure coming out, you may get into big trouble!"

"If a strong person is breaking through, and you rush to grab the treasure, affecting their breakthrough, your lives will be over!"

The old man's words made the young men behind him sweat slightly on their foreheads, obviously they had thought of this terrible consequence.

The old man pointed out, "Actually, these two situations are easy to distinguish! First of all, it's the light!"

"Generally speaking, strong people's breakthroughs will not produce strong light, unless they use treasures that can reflect or emit light to help them break through! This is the first point!"

"The second point, and the most crucial one, is the fluctuation of energy!"

"Your strength is not high now, but you must learn to recognize energy fluctuations as soon as possible, and you must recognize them quickly! Recognize these energy fluctuations!"

"If the energy fluctuations you absorb in your daily practice are expressed as 10, then the energy fluctuations of a breakthrough are over 100, but the energy fluctuations of a treasure's birth are over 10,000!"

"Because when a treasure is born, it has usually been sealed for many years, so when it is released, it will generate huge energy. This energy must be restless and aggressive!"

"But for cultivation, no matter how great the influence of cultivation is, no matter how large the scope is, cultivation must be absorbed, so it must be within the tolerance range of humans or monsters! The offensive power will not be that strong!"

The old man's words succinctly and clearly pointed out the characteristics of these two methods, causing several young people behind him to nod in unison.

This is enough to reflect the difference between the top practitioners in Hangzhou and this old man.

Fundamentally, it can be seen that the practitioners in Hangzhou are not as detailed as the old man explained in many aspects, so who are they?

The old man led these people and slowly landed outside Hangzhou and walked into the city on foot.

Hangzhou is one of the few cities in the world that does not have city walls. Its roads extend in all directions, and only some defense lines have been set up at certain checkpoints, all of which are set up by humans to collect import and export fees.

Practitioners can enter and exit freely, but can only fly outside the city of Hangzhou.

The strange thing is that when practitioners from other places first come to Hangzhou, they cannot fly over the city. Only after living in Hangzhou for a month or so can they fly low over the city.

The old man brought several people into Hangzhou.

Hangzhou is known as the City of Silk. As the saying goes, there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below.

Hangzhou is not only a commercial city, but also a city with beautiful scenery, especially the West Lake, which is famous all over the world.

But now, a very strange situation appeared on the streets of Hangzhou city, leaving the old man and his disciples stunned.

Are they dazzled?

The old man originally wanted to bring his disciples to see the beautiful West Lake, to have some fun, and to see which big shot was making a breakthrough.

But he didn't expect to see a scene that shocked him.

For hundreds of years!

No

This was a scene he had never seen since he was born!

Is this a joke?
