919: 253 919: 253 After arriving at the Hundred Peaks Sect, Duo Duo learned many things she had previously been unaware of, and even from her senior sisters and brothers, she came to know how they became stronger.
They were all called into the master’s room at night and then took the pills prepared by the master, resulting in their breakthroughs.
She had thought that the master would also prepare pills for her and Zhu Peng to help them break through, but as she waited, the master started lecturing all the disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect, still not seeking her out.
Unable to bear it any longer, she found the master, but his first words utterly stunned her.
The master had actually seen through her, knowing she was a being of Grand Completion of the Immortal Bridge.
She had cultivated the Extinguish Aura and Trace technique, and even ordinary Earth Immortals couldn’t see through her, let alone someone in the Golden Core Stage.
How could the master possibly see through her?
A reincarnated Great Ability?
She had encountered reincarnated Great Abilities before, and even they couldn’t discern her true cultivation base during the Golden Core Stage.
Duo Duo was completely dumbfounded.
After a long pause, she finally voiced the doubt in her heart, “Master, how did you see through that your disciple has reached Grand Completion of the Ten Phenomenal Immortal Bridges?”
Cao Zhen had been pretending to be a reincarnated Great Ability for some time now, his acting had become extremely plentiful.
His face revealed an unfathomable expression as he slowly started to speak, “Your cultivation technique is indeed quite good.
However, you haven’t perfected it yet.
You might be able to deceive others, but you can’t deceive me.”
As he spoke, he paused for a moment and then looked at Duo Duo, “You have the Ancient Immortal Body, and reaching the Grand Completion of the Ten Phenomenal Immortal Bridges requires a substantial amount of resources.
Your family is quite remarkable.
I’ll get to the point, which dynasty and family do you come from?”
At Four Treasures Peak, Duo Duo could contribute the power of an era’s prosperity, wich meant that she likely didn’t come from another Immortal Sect.
Therefore, she must have come from a certain family, and it had to be a significant one.
For others to help an Ancient Immortal Body reach the Grand Completion of the Ten Phenomenal Immortal Bridges, the required materials would be far from ordinary.
Most families couldn’t afford it.
Upon hearing this, Duo Duo fell silent for a while, looking at Cao Zhen with hesitation.
After a long pause, she finally started to speak slowly, “Master, I do not come from the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, nor from any nearby dynasty.
To be more precise, I am not from the Eastern Wasteland.”
Eastern Wasteland…
Cao Zhen hadn’t heard this term in a long time, but he was aware that the territory including the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, the Great Chu Dynasty, the Great Jin Dynasty, the Great Lai Dynasty, and even the South Ocean was referred to as the Eastern Wasteland.
And Cao Zhen had never heard of anything outside of the Eastern Wasteland, nor had he seen anyone from beyond enter it.
It seemed as though the entire Eastern Wasteland was isolated from the rest of the world.
Now, his disciple was telling him that she was not from the Eastern Wasteland.
As she spoke, Duo Duo stretched out a hand, pointing to herself as she introduced, “I come from the Central Continent.
As for my family, it no longer exists, and now I am the only one left.”
As Duo Duo reached this point, a hint of sadness inevitably appeared on her face.
Ever since she arrived at the Hundred Peaks Sect, she was always brimming with smiles, seeming like a lively and optimistic child; but who would have imagined that her family was gone.
Duo Duo continued, looking towards her master, “In fact, it was due to a major disaster that befell my family, that I was escorted by our family’s guards as we fled eastward.
Only after a fierce battle that cost them their lives, was I able to enter the Eastern Wasteland.”
“Hmm?
What about those who were pursuing you?
Do they know you have entered the Eastern Wasteland?
Is it possible they also followed you here, entering our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty?” Cao Zhen truly hadn’t expected Little Duo Duo to have such a protagonist-like background.
Hearing Cao Zhen’s question, a look of surprise appeared on Little Duo Duo’s face, and then, as if realizing something, she nodded in understanding, “That’s right, master.
As a reincarnated Great Ability, you may not be familiar with our epoch.
Those who were pursuing me cannot enter the Eastern Wasteland.
Because, under normal circumstances, people from outside the Eastern Wasteland cannot enter it.
Only during the once every ten thousand years when the tide of the Endless Immortal Sea rises, can they enter the Eastern Wasteland.
Moreover, only those below the Immortality Regainment Realm can enter; those above cannot.
And when I entered the Eastern Wasteland, the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth was about to begin.
After entering the Eastern Wasteland, those in the Earth Immortal Realm would inevitably fall into a deep slumber.
At most, only those in the Golden Core Stage could rush in.
But since I came directly to the Guardian Immortal Dynasty and have been hiding, even if they did follow me here, it’s unlikely they would discover my presence.”
Listening to Little Duo Duo’s explanation, Cao Zhen finally understood why they so rarely saw people from outside the Eastern Wasteland.
It turned out that it was only every ten thousand years that people from other places could enter the Eastern Wasteland.
From this perspective, the Eastern Wasteland seemed more like a prison.
And there was something else…
Cao Zhen suddenly thought of the Qi Tian Dynasty.
The people from the Qi Tian Dynasty sent their members into this dynasty every ten thousand years.
Could it be possible that the Qi Tian Dynasty actually came from the Central Continent?
As Cao Zhen came to this realization, he asked, “So, Duo Duo, have you ever heard of the name ‘Praying Heaven’ back in the Central Continent?”
