——–
Beneath the abyss, amidst the darkness, stars occasionally streaked by.
It felt as if one was in the Endless Starry Sky, heading deeper into its vastness.
If not for the tremendous suction force beneath one's feet, there would indeed be the illusion of journeying into the depths of the stars.
However, Jiang Hao understood clearly.
Whether it was the depths of the stars, the endless nothingness, or the deep bowels of the earth, it was all unimportant.
In the end, it was a place where one could break free from the natural order of the world.
In other words, this place was also part of the natural order, just not the same as the outside world.
Listening to Mr. Tao's words, Jiang Hao sighed, “So am I doomed?”
“Not necessarily,” Mr. Tao looked down, his eyes slightly narrowed, “You are an anomaly, and anomalies bring about new changes.
Your fate cannot be controlled by your own hands, but there are those who can reach out and grasp your destiny.
How it ends, who can be sure?”
“Why did you betray the Astronomical Academy in the first place, Mr. Tao?” Jiang Hao changed the subject directly.
The initial inquiry was out of mere curiosity.
A deeper investigation, for now, was still premature, and there was no rush.
To be discussed later.
He was quite curious about what was beneath.
The Human Emperor, Naihe Heaven, Gu Jin – they must have all descended.
According to Gu Jin, both Naihe Heaven and the Human Emperor took something away.
That's why they inevitably died in the end.
Only Gu Jin took nothing.
So, he survived.
In the era of Naihe Heaven, this place might have been a purgatory.
But he wasn't sure, having never ventured outside to see.
Hearing Heavenly King Hai Luo speak, Mr. Tao seemed slightly bewildered before saying,
“Betray the Astronomical Academy?”
He pondered for a moment and smiled, “It was so long ago, if the Heavenly King wouldn't have mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten I am a traitor of the Astronomical Academy.
How many years has it been?
Endless eons have made me forget the years.
I remember leaving the Astronomical Academy when I was still very young.”
“Why did you leave at that time?” Jiang Hao was quite curious.
He only knew that Mr. Tao stayed until Gu Jin left, and only then did he leave the academy.
“Not easy to say,” Mr. Tao thought for a long time, “The Astronomical Academy of that time was really exceptional, my innate talents were ordinary, but I was given important responsibilities.
Dean Jing was very kind to me.
Working under his guidance went smoothly.
The academy was different from other places; almost everything I proposed was supported.
I joined other sects as well, but compared to the academy, they were really nothing.
Back then, I secretly swore to remain loyal to the academy until death.
But still, I left.
The only feeling was, as the Great Era ended, staying at the academy left me seeing no hope.
Thus, I departed.
There were many traitors from the academy, one more didn't make a difference, one less didn't matter.
So, it didn't really weigh on my conscience.”
“What kind of hope did Mr. Tao seek?” Jiang Hao asked, curious.
Mr. Tao pointed downwards and said, “Does the Heavenly King know my current cultivation level?”
“Perfect Immortal, quite powerful, already among the strongest in the world,” Jiang Hao replied.
“Yes, Perfect Immortal, something I could never have imagined before, a level of cultivation that only Dean Jing could achieve.
Now I have quietly caught up with him,” Mr. Tao maintained his smile, “So this is the direction I need to pursue.”
Jiang Hao shook his head, “Just cultivation, it doesn't sound like a teacher of the academy.”
Perfect Immortal was certainly formidable, but the person before him didn't seem to be one solely in pursuit of realms.
Mr. Tao laughed, “The Heavenly King really thinks highly of me.”
Jiang Hao didn't respond to the remark but asked,
“How did you come into contact with the entity below?”
“At a very young age, I suppose, when I was reading, suddenly I felt that I could hear some voices while reading, voices telling me that strength would cleanse my body.
As long as I continued to read and comprehend knowledge, I could improve without cultivation.
Although I didn't understand why, such a good thing made me vigilant.
Fortunately, cultivation can be concealed, allowing me to feel at ease, at least not being caught.
I then started joining various sects.
Searching for information.
Unfortunately, there were no relevant records.
But I dared not rely on these powers recklessly.
Luckily, after becoming a True Immortal, relying on these powers became useless.
I needed to comprehend on my own.
One halt could last thousands of years, even though I could still gain insights into the Tao by reading, I could not advance quickly.
However, it was in the Astronomical Academy that with the help of some pages of an ancient book, I found the origin of these powers.”
“What was recorded there?” Jiang Hao asked with slight curiosity.
It was something he had never encountered.
Not even Naihe Heaven and the others might know of it.
Reading to gain strength and insights into the Tao.
Was there a parallel with his own panel?
This made him more intrigued.
It seemed they had never mentioned such things.
Perhaps they knew but didn't care.
Or maybe they were unaware of the Child's specific situation.
Moreover, one Child could be completely different from another.
Whether it's Ming Ling Fairy or the other Lawless Tower guards.
None of them seemed to share Mr. Tao's treatment.
Perhaps his case was the true essence of being a Child.
After some thought, Mr. Tao said, “The general meaning was that in every era, there would be some people whose cultivation before ascension would advance exceedingly fast, ascending in peculiar and strange ways, either having bizarre voices in their mind, or receiving feedback from their actions, or possessing special abilities, sensing great luck, seizing opportunities and such.”
