Wang Teng sat cross-legged at the foot of the mountain, facing the abyss below. He calmed his mind and ignored everything around him.
This place was far too desolate!
If he stayed here too long, he would probably grow restless and might even unconsciously start climbing that mountain.
Because climbing the mountain was the only way out!
There was a restraining force on the mountain that prevented one from leaving its bounds. One could either fall straight down or climb the mountain.
As long as one's brain was not broken, the first thing they would think of was climbing.
Yet Wang Teng refused to do that. He chose a third option: staying right where he was.
This option was much safer.
Someone definitely brought me here, Wang Teng thought to himself. I won't move. Let's see what they do about it.
Could it be some powerful figure from the academy? Have they given me another test?
That doesn't seem right either. The dean was right beside me. If some expert used a method to move me away, they should at least have informed me.
I wonder if the dean and the others will come save me?
Would shouting for help do any good now?
Thought after thought flashed through Wang Teng's mind. He discovered that he could not cultivate here at all, so he could only let his imagination run wild.
Climbing Divine Sky Mountain earlier had left him mentally exhausted and weakened. Right now, he did not want to move at all.
Otherwise, given his personality, he might really have tried climbing the mountain.
As Wang Teng waited, time slowly passed.
But in this place, time seemed to have no meaning. It felt as if a day had passed, yet also as if three days had passed.
