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 trendous 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 sa as the outside world.
Listening to Mr. Tao's words, Jiang Hao sighed, "So am I dood?"
"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 re 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 sothing 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 seed slightly bewildered before saying,
"Betray the Astronomical Academy?"
He pondered for a mont and smiled, "It was so long ago, if the Heavenly King wouldn't have ntioned it, I would have almost forgotten I am a traitor of the Astronomical Academy.
How many years has it been?
Endless eons have made forget the years.
I rember leaving the Astronomical Academy when I was still very young."
"Why did you leave at that ti?" 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 ti, "The Astronomical Academy of that ti was really exceptional, my innate talents were ordinary, but I was given important responsibilities.
Dean Jing was very kind to .
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 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, sothing 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 ."
Jiang Hao didn't respond to the remark but asked,
"How did you co into contact with the entity below?"
"At a very young age, I suppose, when I was reading, suddenly I felt that I could hear so voices while reading, voices telling 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 vigilant.
Fortunately, cultivation can be concealed, allowing 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 beca 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 so pages of an ancient book, I found the origin of these powers."
"What was recorded there?" Jiang Hao asked with slight curiosity.
It was sothing 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 seed they had never ntioned 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 seed to share Mr. Tao's treatnt.
Perhaps his case was the true essence of being a Child.
After so thought, Mr. Tao said, "The general aning was that in every era, there would be so 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."
