___At the center of the room was a giant stone lab, on top of that stone slab was a silver-haired sleeping beauty___
Bao moved closer to the stone slab; he had sensed the jade pendant and Yue's presence before entering this room.
"Was she already in this state when she came here?" Bao asked the princess
"No, she was fine, she just passed out near the transmission gate, changes occurred after she entered this hallowed area." The princes replied
[How could I be so careless, I should've noticed that the jade pendant didn't lose its energy but was absorbed by Yue]
The change in her body was most likely caused by the absorption of a large amount of spirit energy when she entered this area, which caused her hair to turn silver white and some minor changes in her inner body.
Bao sensed Yue's inner world, and there he saw things he had never seen before: all the absorbed energy was gathering at the center, where a vortex was formed and a core was forming on its own without anyone's intervention.
Yue was close to forming a core in a single day, with no instruction or guidance. This can only be described as peerless talent. She was a heaven's chosen one, but calling her that would be an insult; she was something more; even the heavens would envy her talent.
Yue had already surpassed everyone Bao knew in the immortal world in terms of cultivation talent; even the ancient emperor's abilities paled in comparison. His immortal past self would be inferior in front of her; she truly was peerless in this regard.
If Yue was born in the immortal world, she would undoubtedly live the life of a peerless immortal emperor, suppressing everyone beneath her for countless generations. Bao got goosebumps thinking of Yue sitting on the throne of a supreme being ruling the immortal world and ascending towards The God's domain.
However, talent is not the only factor required to become supreme; wisdom and a strong will are also required. Other factors to consider included talent and destiny. Bao eventually withdrew his divine sense from her.
"As you may have guessed, this is not the planet you live on," the princess explained.
"Then where is this location?"
"This is the celestial body closest to Prithvi," the princess replied.
"You mean this is the moon!"
"Yes, you are currently on the dark side of the moon, and there is a concealing array above,"
"Does tribulation descend in this location?" Bao inquired because Yue was likely to form a Golden core or superior, which would necessitate tribulations.
"No, the moon has a very thin atmosphere, so it cannot trap heat, and tribulation cannot descend here because of the absence of elements like wind, clouds, and rain," the princess replied.
"What is your name? You are neither a human nor a spirit "Bao asked the princess
"I am the moon's guardian; I don't have a name, but people in Prithvi know me as the moon princess Kaguya." The princess responded.
The moon princess Kaguya is a well-known historical literary tale that has been passed down from generation to generation since the 10th century. Bao had also read about it when he was younger. There were several versions of Princess Kaguya's stories, the most famous of which was The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter.
"Isn't Kaguya, the moon princess, just a fairytale? Are you, as stated, immortal?"
"It depends on your definition of immortality, for mortal I could be considered an immortal"
"I have visited the Prithvi twice, on my second visit I accepted Lan'er as my disciple"
"then people created a different version of me in their tales," the princess responded
"You said you're the moon's guardian; are there other guardians like you?"
"Yes, other celestial bodies Also have guardians" "Before you ask another question, I have a request, if you will listen?" said the princess
"I'll make a decision after hearing,"
"I've never seen such a talented human before; I'd like to take her as my disciple,"
"Why do you want her to be your disciple? You already have a high mortal as your disciple"
"My disciple has reached her limits and cannot go any further," the princess responded.
"Do you believe there are higher stages than the high mortal?" Bao asked.
"Yes, I believe so; there is unquestionably a higher stage than high mortal," the princess replied.
"What makes you think so?"
"The universe is larger than we can imagine; there must be a place outside this galaxy where life exists, and there must be stages higher than the high mortal," the princess responded.
"Why do you believe in extraterrestrial life? Have you ever met them?"
"No, we haven't met them yet,"
"but you humans are the main proof of extraterrestrial life." the princess replied,
"What exactly do you mean?"
"Human ancestors were not originally from this place; they were all brought here by someone from an unknown place,"
"Later, before they died, those ancestors wrote everything they knew about their world, and religions were formed corresponding to the gods they used to serve." the princess explained.
"Are you saying that all myths and fairytales in the human world are true?"
"Mostly yes," the princess replied, "but after many generations, stories change and a new one appears, just like mine."
"Suppose she became your disciple; how would you plan to leave this galaxy?" Bao asked
"We have our ways; all you have to do is agree with us,"
"Why did you tell me all this?"
"As her husband, you are bound to follow," the princess replied
Apart from the celestial body's guardian, Bao knew the majority of the information. He simply wanted to put her knowledge to the test.
"However, I cannot agree to your request,"
"why? Do think about it, she might be the one to lead us all out of here. Don't you want to go explore other galaxies besides the Milky Way? " said the princess
"Enough, we're not going to discuss this,"
"Take your time thinking about it," the princess said as she and her disciple exited the room.
"Princess, why did you let that person stay after he was so rude to you?" her disciple asked
"Didn't you see his eyes? He wasn't surprised or afraid when he came here, and he showed no emotion or hesitation while speaking to me, he was calm and indifferent to his surroundings,"
"Princess, what do you mean?" her disciple asked
"If one does not fear anything, he is either brave or has some loose screws; he definitely was not the latter."
"Don't be rude to him the next time," the princess advised.
"Princess, you're saying he was stronger than the high mortal, but he was only at the grandmaster stage?"
"I'm not sure, but those eyes aren't of someone benevolent,"
Princess Kaguya lived for a long time and was a wise being; she met many people of various races as well as historical figures. She could tell good from bad with a glance, so she knew from his actions that he was dangerous and not benevolent. She could see Bao's emotions because she was a special being. He was void of emotion like Buddha, but Buddha was benevolent, whereas Bao was not.
Bao was alone in the room after the princess and her disciple had left, staring at Yue's sleeping face. "Fate cutting," Bao cautiously lifted his three fingers. Although he couldn't entirely sever her fate with his current strength, he could at least momentarily delay it. If she took the path of immortality, she would truly become someone respected as supreme. But Bao didn't want to see her hand stained with blood. The path to supremacy is a treacherous and long one. With the passage of time and the loss of family and friends, one's feelings will fade. Everything must be abandoned, including family, friends, and feelings. These things will just develop a heart demon and obstruct their progress. Bao didn't want Yue to go through all of that, therefore he intended to save her from such a terrible fate. He wanted her to die naturally rather than endure a long life of suffering. Time passes slowly. In the end, he didn't change her fate; he simply couldn't harm her in any way. He sat ne
While they were conversing, Bao asked a question that caught Princess Kaguya's attention. "If you existed from long ago, you must have heard of the Aztec organization." Bao asked "I'm aware of them, but are you a member of the Aztec organization?" The princess asked back "No, I don't belong to any organization." "As one would anticipate from someone like you, you will not tolerate another boss," the princess added. The princess was not a mortal or a ghost; she was a unique entity capable of sensing and seeing one's true nature. As a result, she concluded that Bao was someone revered; it wasn't his arrogance or pride. It was Bao's very existence that warranted the utmost respect, that was evident in him. "Have you met the founder of the Aztec organization?" Bao asked "Yes, I've met him before." "What kind of group is the Aztec?" "They are similar to our organization with a certain goal."the princess replied "Do you mean the clear sky pagoda?" "Yes, You must have heard of it b
It was late summer and extremely hot outside. A patient lay in bed, unconscious, in a white room. To keep the patient's interior body safe, the temperature within the room was kept cool and maintained. For three months, he had been in a coma. He was in the intensive care unit. The doctors were unable to determine the cause of his coma and therefore gave up hope of him recovering, but someone was still visiting and caring for him, someone he knew well. It was a Saturday, and there were few people about. Only the emergency room was available, and the majority of the doctors were absent. They were enjoying a day off. Only a few staff members and doctors from the emergency room were present. He regained consciousness abruptly, but he was unable to move or talk. His entire body felt shaky. He looked like a someone who hadn't eaten in months. He couldn't even open his eyes. He had no idea where he was or why he had arrived. His thoughts were a jumbled mess. He had lost his ability to thin
Their embrace lasted for hours. Yue slept out after sobbing for a long time in his hug. It was getting close to nightfall outdoors. It was starting to grow dark. She was still resting in his lap. He was caressing of her hair. He eventually woke her up. "It's getting late, Yue'er. You should return right now. Uncle and aunt may be concerned." She rushed here without informing anyone. She was the only one who knew of Bao's reawakening. "I don't want to be too far away from you. I'll spend the night here. What if you leave me again?" Yue said He was moved when he heard her say that. He had no idea how she felt when he was in a coma. For her, It had been three months of separation, yet it seemed like an eternity to him. He searched all ten thousand worlds for her. For this day, he cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years. He desired to spend this life time with her. He wanted a hundred years of romance with her. He wanted to offer her all of the happiness till the end of her, t
It was a tranquil night, and the moonlight shone brightly. Inside a hospital, in a corridor, a man walked slowly; he was Bao, and after gaining enough energy, he was able to move properly. At midnight, as he was gathering energy, he began to hear cries. So he was curious and went in that way, but as he got closer, he heard more cries. Soon after reaching the source of the cries, which was somewhere near the basement, he was surprised for a moment and displeased with what he saw. There he saw an array, and in the heart of that array was an old porcelain that was gathering surrounding spirit, and because soul and spirit are in some ways connected, surrounding mindless Soul were also being gathered. Souls are separated into several grades, and humans living in this isolated world did not possess the complete mortal soul, thus calling them souls would be improper. It was known as the pre-mortal soul, which is lower to the mortal soul above that was Spiritual sense and Battle soul. Th
He was fatigued after refining energy till 3 a.m. and slept until 8 a.m. after waking up, his body was more lively than before. After half an hour, the door to his room was opened, and two elderly people and a beautiful woman entered; they were Ying Yue and her adoptive parents. Bao greeted them both. And look at Yue; when she arrived in a rush yesterday, she was a little sweaty and her hair was messed up, but seeing her today was like meeting a different person. Her hair was midnight-black that flowed over her shoulders, and she had honey-sweet lips that looked blossom soft. Her bosom was well-shaped for her age, and her eyes were blue, reflecting the deep ocean scenery. Despite the fact that she was dressed formally, She had a sculpted figure, like the last single beam of light from the sunset illuminating the endless ocean's surface. She was a painted masterpiece. Even a fairy from the immortal world couldn't compete with her beauty in Bao's eyes. Her cheeks flushed red after be
After their chats were over, Yue's parents, together with Shu heng, entered the room. Their expression was gloomy, but Bao didn't inquire about the problems. "Once you feel well, visit orphanage once in awhile" shu Heng told bao "We're going now, we have some matters to attend to; if everything is well, you'll be discharged in a week," Chen Luo stated. After saying that Shu heng and Yue's parents had departed, only Yue remained; as the president, her comments had a lot of weight, so she had to stay in hospital to attend meetings and other important things, but she sees Bao regularly in her spare time. During the day, Bao would wander around the hospital, while he appeared to be walking around casually, he was investigating the hospital for more possible arrays, and at night, he would refine the energy in porcelain, this process that took him weeks to complete since the hospital was so large. He discovered further array and energy-storing instruments, as expected, and refined all o
Yue was conversing with Bao when she received a call from the hospital, saying she needed to attend a meeting, so she left Bao to rest at the mansion. It was time for Bao to lay the foundation; he had already refined all of the energy collected by arrays into a pure form the size of a soccer ball, so he went to the back of the mansion and ordered that no one disturb him in his rest! He walked to the sacred fig/Bo tree, sat under it, and began concentrating all of the remaining pure energies into his abdomen. Creating a ball of energy around his abdomen He swirls his hand in a yin-yang pattern. It was that nameless secret skill that began accumulating energy from the environment, primarily from the old tree he was seated beneath. It had amassed a significant amount of spiritual energy throughout its life, But this energy didn't reach his abdomen, where his pure ball of energy resided, instead it surrounded his entire body, leaving thin clouds around his skin. It was planned to open

The next morning, Bao landed in Japan. Last night, when Bao ordered the flight pilot to change the heading to Japan, other martial artists on the airplane were not pleased with his choice. At first, they vocally argued, but then the old man from the clear sky pagoda convinced them. They were over 35,000 feet, so they didn't fight inside, and they were not in a rush. They still had a month until the opening, so they agreed and headed to Japan. They flew back to their destination after landing BAO in Japan. When Bao arrived in Japan, he covered the entire country with his divine sense. As someone who previously had quasi-immortal soul, he already had a divine sense after breaking through to core-formation stage, tho it was nowhere compare to his peak state. He noticed that there were many martial artists in the country, yet none of them were capable of harming her. with his energy embedded on the runes, He searched for the jade pendant but couldn't find it. as if it vanished from this p
Time flew by, and the seasons changed constantly. Bao was peacefully living the life of a mortal, he would cultivate sometimes or going to a lab to aid others. He would take Yue out on dates on the weekends, Five years have gone. Bao refined the spirit energy in the stone he acquired from the old man over the course of five years. That old man returned for the ceremony and took whatever was remained in the cup. When Bao and Yue went to the orphanage, they had a reunion with other friends who used to be in the same orphanage. Chen Luo celebrated his 60th birthday with his entire family, including Lu Feng and his daughter. old Luo's friends were also invited; it wasn't grand, but the atmosphere was upbeat. Old Luo also announced Bao as his daughter's fiancée to everyone, which old Feng and other family members were not startled by because they previously knew. Old Luo did this to inform other guests. The kellari desert arena's opening was also approaching. One day, Bao received a call
After settling matters regarding the Taoist and his old master, Bao returned to the city. Although he got to know how they trained array techniques, he still was clueless about the old man's master and the kellari desert arena. So after entering the city, he directly went towards the clear sky pagoda. As they were one of the most influential organizations with branches all over the world, in hope of them knowing something about this kellari desert arena Bao went there. Bao went straight to the pagoda from the front entrance, after entering the first floor, he started to climb up towards the second floor. The last time when Bao came here, he was with old Feng, and with old Feng's membership card they were allowed to climb higher floors, but now he was alone without the membership card. He was expecting the guards to stop him and ask for a membership card, but to his surprise, nothing like that happened, he climbed to the second floor without being asked. Other people who saw the beha
The Decem-Milia realm is located beneath the immortal Realm; it is a name that refers to the entire ten thousand lower worlds; each world is a galaxy, and each galaxy has innumerable planets/stars. Dragons were one of the most powerful races in the Decem-Milia realm, above the Demons. Bao was also from the dragon race, but his family bloodline was not pure; they were a hybrid of dragon and an unknown race. As a result, they were not recognized as true dragons and were positioned as a guardian on the North Seaside. The true dragons dwelt beneath the ocean, which served as the dragon race's main foundation, and the ocean was protected from all sides. Bao's Family defended the far north edge of the ocean, which was also the closest to human territory. Although dragons are supposed to be the most powerful race, they do have taboos. They were prohibited from killing members of the same race and from allying with the demon race. Other taboos also existed, but these two were the most impor
___There is always a higher mountain, but no matter how tall the mountain is, it cannot block the sun_____ This phrase was true even for Bao, when he was still in the immortal world, people knew him for being the strongest in the whole immortal world. But Bao clearly understood, he was nowhere near the pinnacle and the immortal realm was only another short step towards that false peak. He didn't know where the path will lead to or when it will end, but he surely knew the path ahead of him would be a thorny one. "old man, now it's time for you to answer my questions" "HOW DID YOU LEARN THESE ARRAY TECHNIQUES? AND ON WHOSE COMMAND YOU PLACED IT UNDER HOSPITAL?" Bao questioned while performing puppet command on the old man "I..was taught array method by master…., it was on master's direction, I placed the array under the hospital" old man answered "WHO IS THAT MASTER? WHERE CAN I MEET HIM?" "master is the one who adopted us and trained us…., I don't know where the master is…." Old m
Bao was calmly meditating under the Bo tree behind the mansion the next morning. The last ceremonial rite took place about three years ago. Yue informed Bao last night that the ceremonial person should arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. He was curious as to how the ceremonial person acquired the array technique and the porcelain capable of storing spirits. While meditating, he received a call from Yue informing him that the ceremonial person had come. Yue's parents had already prepared the essential supplies for the ceremonial procedure a few days before. Then Bao went to the hospital as well. He was eager to see the individual who had come to create an array beneath the hospital. He went to Yue's office after arriving at the hospital. Yue, her parents, and the ceremonial individual were all present. In comparison to what Yue described to Bao, he appeared to be quite youthful. He appeared to be the same age as Bao. He was dressed in a Taoist robe and headgear. He had a Taoist
