My Master Knows It All

Cao Zhen never quite understood what the Heavenly Dao truly intended to accomplish.

Initially, based on the relics he had entered, he surmised that the Heavenly Dao aimed to annihilate more cultivators. Also, the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth led him to believe that the Heavenly Dao lacked power and sought to recuperate, thus restricting the power of the world.

Even the slaying of those cultivators seemed to be a measure to conserve power.

Yet, with the arrival of the six alien races, he felt that the Heavenly Dao might not be as he had thought.

Now, though, despite Ruo Yun and Shen Pingyi being heavily injured by the Heavenly Tribulation, especially Shen Pingyi who was near death,

the Heavenly Dao descended with its aura again, healing their injuries.

This contradicted his previous judgment.

At this moment, he truly couldn’t comprehend the Heavenly Dao.

Under the power of the Heavenly Dao, Ruo Yun and Shen Pingyi’s injuries healed at a visibly rapid pace, and they quickly returned to normal.

The next moment, the void above turned instantaneously dark, and within the span of a breath, it brightened again, only to return to darkness with another breath.

Cao Zhen remembered, when he witnessed the Grand Preceptor’s breakthrough, day and night alternated ninety-nine times before everything returned to normal.

Now, after Ruo Yun and Shen Pingyi’s breakthrough, the void experienced sixty-four alternations of day and night before the sky became calm again,

and the sun, moon, and stars emerged in the void.

Simultaneously, the figures of Ruo Yun and Shen Pingyi appeared in the void.

Almost immediately, not only within the entire Hundred Peaks Sect but throughout the Eastern Wasteland, two figures soaring into the sky were visible to all.

”There, someone has broken through to the True Immortal Realm!”

”And not just one, but two people have achieved the True Immortal Realm at the same time!”

”Whenever someone breaks through to the True Immortal Realm, phenomena occur, but ordinary phenomena wouldn’t be this clear! This is a phenomenon that only arises for a peerless Heavenly Pride upon achieving True Immortality!”

”Thus, our Human Clan has gained two more immensely potential True Immortals!”

”Judging by the location, it seems to be the place of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.”

”It should be disciples from the Hundred Peaks Sect; only disciples from the Hundred Peaks Sect would achieve something like this!”

”The Hundred Peaks Sect, to have Sect Leader Cao, is indeed fortunate for the entire Great Teaching!”

Under the watchful gaze of the masses, Ruo Yun and Shen Pingyi took steps across the void, ascending onto the Milky Way of gathering stars overhead.

In that moment, beams of light fell upon them both, and from afar, they seemed like two immortals descending to the mortal world.

Behind them, at the peak of the Immortal Mountain, each had a palace emerging—precisely the Immortal Palaces they had coalesced during their tribulations, although at that time, those palaces were more illusory, whereas now they were exceedingly tangible.

And within these two palaces, one could clearly see a myriad of phenomenal projections.

”Phenomena Immortal Palace!”

”Indeed worthy of such a commotion caused by these Heavenly Prides, the coalescing of Immortal Palaces by Fang Yi is truly a phenomenon Immortal Palace!”

”I recall, the Heavenly Prides of the Hundred Peaks Sect, especially Sect Leader Cao’s disciples, have similar strengths, and now someone has achieved True Immortality; it shouldn’t be long before the other disciples of Sect Leader Cao break through as well.”

”However, it is rather peculiar, all of Sect Leader Cao’s disciples have broken through, yet how come Sect Leader Cao hasn’t!”

Never has an Immortality Regainment Realm been as focused on as Cao Zhen, not only scrutinized by those within the Human Clan but also by the six other alien races, all awaiting Cao Zhen’s breakthrough into the True Immortal Realm.

To them, Cao Zhen’s stay in the Immortality Regainment Realm poses greater trouble!

Cao Zhen, being too powerful while in the Immortality Regainment Realm, rendered them powerless to eliminate him, even with their strongest sent forth.

As a result, they can only steer clear of Cao Zhen, while all grand relics discovered in the Immortality Regainment Realm had their final treasures claimed by him, and they tread carefully on the battlefield in this realm, lest they incur his vengeance.

If Cao Zhen were to break through to the True Immortal Realm, things would differ, for even while unparalleled in the Immortality Regainment Realm, upon entering the True Immortal Realm, he would still be at its early stage.

The moment Cao Zhen dares to enter the True Immortal Realm’s battlefield, or departs the Human Clan’s gathering, he would be instantly slain by various clans!

Only, they wondered why Cao Zhen hadn’t broken through yet?

Cao Zhen too wished to break through, but he discovered he had genuinely encountered a bottleneck.

He always thought his cultivation path needed no effort; simply lying down and winning was sufficient. If that failed, he could directly hurl all extra experience from China Cloud onto his cultivation base, thus naturally breaking through.

Yet now, to his astonishment, he found he couldn’t use that extra experience.

He had a significant amount of extra experience remaining; little to say of the ample experience gained from Ruo Yun and Shen Pingyi’s breakthrough into the True Immortal Realm.

However, this experience couldn’t be applied to his own cultivation experience.

”Therefore, I can’t just continue lying down and winning; I need insights.”

Cao Zhen reminisced alone about his journey into this world and the subsequent path of cultivation.

In truth, whether from the Golden Core Stage into the Earth Immortal Realm or from the Earth Immortal Realm into the Immortality Regainment Realm, he made breakthroughs after gaining insights.

But the problem is that insights aren’t something one can have at will.

Especially with the complicated and disorderly path he now walks, he had leaned too much on laying down and winning.
