Mount Laojun wasn't in Sunset College. Zhou Wen originally didn't wish to go so far, but he had to complete the school's homework mission. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to graduate. Zhou Wen had no choice but to go.
Li Xuan was very excited as he sat on the bus and constantly explained Mount Laojun to Zhou Wen.
"Mount Laojun can be said to be the safest dimensional zone. Although there are quite a number of dimensional creatures there, they basically won't take the initiative to attack humans. As long as you don't provoke them, there won't be any danger on Mount Laojun. The only thing to worry about is the Wordless Monument we have to see for our homework mission. It's also known as the Carefree Monument. No matter how strong your willpower is, you can't look at it for more than half an hour. Otherwise, it'll be fun … "
Zhou Wen sat by the window and listened to Li Xuan explain the situation on Mount Laojun as he grinded the Ant Nest dungeon.
"What's fun?" Zhou Wen asked.
"That thing is very sinister. Although it won't kill you, it will excite you and make you want to do something," Li Xuan said with a chuckle.
Mount Laojun was in Luoyang, so it didn't take long for the school bus to arrive.
It was different from what Zhou Wen had imagined. Mount Laojun wasn't too tall, but it was surrounded by winding pine and cypress trees. There were ancient buildings standing on the mountain peak, making it look like a scene out of a painting.
From afar, Mount Laojun looked like a classical ink landscape painting.
Wang Fei did a headcount and led the group of students up the mountain.
There were rabbits, squirrels, and other small animals everywhere on the mountain. There were also flocks of immortal cranes flying in the clouds. They weren't afraid of humans, but they curiously sized up the students from Sunset College.
Zhou Wen kept searching for the tiny palm symbol, but he didn't find it. However, he wasn't worried. The mysterious phone had the ability to automatically lock onto the tiny palm symbol, but he had to wait until he was a certain distance away.
The most mysterious part of Mount Laojun was the Golden Peak. There were many mysterious ancient buildings there, but unfortunately, no human had ever been able to reach the Golden Peak.
Legend had it that people had once seen countless animals crawl out of the mountain. Animals like snakes, insects, rats, and ants crawled up Mount Laojun, covering the entire mountain. Those animals prostrated in front of the Golden Peak like humans for three days and three nights before dispersing.
On Mount Laojun, it was taboo to see blood. Someone had once attempted to start a massacre here and kill the docile dimensional creatures.
That person had just killed a dimensional creature that resembled a white rabbit, but for some reason, his expression changed drastically. He turned around and ran down the mountain crazily.
When his friend found him the next day, he would hardly have recognized him if his clothes and belongings were not there.
That person's entire body was covered in rabbit fur. His mouth became three petals, and his eyes turned red. He was like a rabbit that was gnawing on the grass. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get up. From then on, he became a lunatic.
Ever since then, no one dared to kill on Mount Laojun. Even seeing blood was a great taboo.
Legend had it that an Epic expert didn't believe in heresy and started a massacre on Mount Laojun. The outcome was tragic.
This was all knowledge taught in school, so Zhou Wen didn't know if it was true or not. However, walking on Mount Laojun, he did feel extremely peaceful. There seemed to be a magical power here that calmed his mind.
"That's the legendary Uneasy Monument. Although it doesn't have a single word or sentence on it, it has magical powers. Your homework mission this time is to sit in front of the Uneasy Monument and look at it for half an hour. Not a second less, but not a second more either." Wang Fei led the students to a platform halfway up the mountain and pointed at a stone monument at the end of the platform.
The stone monument was only two to three meters tall. It looked dilapidated and there was nothing special about it. It stood on the edge of a cliff halfway up the mountain, accompanied by the morning clouds. There was an indescribable feeling amidst its loneliness. It was as though just staring at it could calm one's restless heart.
"Line up. Ten people in a row. Sit in front of the Uneasy Monument. Wear the sunglasses I prepared for you. Listen to my instructions before taking them off. Zhou Wen, Li Xuan, don't stand at the back. Come to the first row." Wang Fei arranged for the students to sit in front of the Uneasy Monument. Seeing that Zhou Wen and Li Xuan were at the back, she called them to the front.
The closer they were to the Uneasy Monument, the stronger the effects. Wang Fei was determined to help Zhou Wen reinvigorate his spirits.
Zhou Wen didn't mind. It didn't matter where he sat. After all, there was no risk in looking at the Uneasy Monument. As long as he didn't exceed the time limit, it wouldn't be a problem.
The only thing that disappointed Zhou Wen was that he didn't find the tiny palm symbol. The mysterious phone didn't vibrate either.
Could it be that Mount Laojun's dimensional zone is above the Golden Peak? Zhou Wen looked at the mountaintop as he thought to himself.
When Wang Fei saw that Zhou Wen was still looking around, she thought to herself, After you see the Wordless Monument, you won't be as distracted as you are now.
"Alright, pay attention. Take off your sunglasses. Everyone, begin looking at the Wordless Monument. The time limit is half an hour. If you get up within half an hour, it will be considered a failure. You will have to look at it again for another half an hour." Wang Fei wore her sunglasses and had no intention of taking them off. All she did was press the stopwatch in her hand.
These sunglasses were specially made. Wearing them to look at the Wordless Monument would greatly reduce its influence, but one couldn't keep looking at it. If one looked at it for too long, the sunglasses would be useless.
Zhou Wen and the students took off their sunglasses as their gazes landed on the Wordless Monument.
Speaking of which, it was strange. Originally, many students were a little nervous, but after seeing the Wordless Monument, their nervous feelings immediately vanished. Their entire bodies relaxed, and their hearts were incomparably calm.
However, this tranquil mood became somewhat odd with the passage of time.
Their minds were still calm, but there seemed to be a surge of energy in their bodies. It made the students feel like their bodies were filled with Primordial Energy. They wished they could immediately get up and do a set of punches or fight someone. The restlessness that came from their bodies formed a strong contrast with their calm minds.
The students naturally didn't dare stand up. They had only sat down for less than three minutes. If they stood up now, it would mean failing the homework mission. All they could do was sit there and endure it bitterly.
This feeling was like a person with ADHD who had to sit there motionlessly. The discomfort wasn't something outsiders could understand.
Zhou Wen also felt the restlessness, but it was only at the beginning. Just as his body began to feel restless, the Lost Immortal Sutra that was circulating at a normal speed slowed down. It made Zhou Wen's body feel a little odd as the restlessness gradually vanished.
