“However, that injury she carries is also a big trouble,” he added.

“What exactly is that injury?” Jiang Hao asked, slightly curious.

“It’s the wound of an era. Do you know why each era needs a new corpse collector?” The director chuckled, “Even corpse collectors fear this injury. Once it manifests here, the problem becomes severe.

“The corpse collector would be unable to pass on their mantle.”

“So, an era’s change always results in this injury?” Jiang Hao inquired.

“Not necessarily, but often it might appear after frequently experiencing era changes,” the director contemplated.

“Era changes are not just about the passage of time.

“Tides rise and fall; opportunities are born and extinguish, extinguished and born again.

“Great Eras commence and disperse, disperse and reconvene.

“As the old and the new alternate, spiritual energy transforms, and the Tao evolves.

“It looks the same, but the world has long since changed.

“Mountains and rivers shift, seas turn into mulberry fields; these are just superficial changes.

“Especially after experiencing many Great Eras, the transformations brought by era changes are even more significant.

“To manifest its old self, an old era must first subside, then blend in, and ultimately reveal itself.

“Your partner seems to have forcefully endured the epochs upon the river of time.”

“Nobody can be sure what changes might occur within her. This injury is both accidental and inevitable.

“As to whether it’s good or bad, it’s hard to say.”

“On the bright side, she is the sole witness and traveler of the eras,

“A transient guest of a hundred generations.”

“On the downside, she may have no future.”

Jiang Hao fell silent.

He had tried to heal that injury before.

In the fight against Cheng Yun, he used various methods to draw upon that injury.

But in the end, he couldn’t fully cure it.

Perhaps even a prolonged battle wouldn’t completely erase it.

He, who could comprehend the complete Tao, was unable to understand that injury.

If he could understand it, perhaps then he would grasp the transmutation of eras, the transformation of heaven and earth, and the evolution of all things.

He might then have a chance to stand equally with Cheng Yun.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Jiang Hao turned his gaze to Heavenly Note Sect.

By now, Heavenly Note Sect had arrived in front of the State Preceptor.

She stood there, her eyes lowered, looking at the person in front of her.

Her eyes held a touch of emotion.

Finally, she lightly crouched down and reached out to touch the woman seated in the high chair.

The instant her hand touched the face, the emotion in her gaze turned cold again: “Warm.”

Slap!

The State Preceptor, who had her hands hanging down, nonchalantly swatted away Heavenly Note Sect’s hand.

Then, yawning, she opened her eyes to address the person before her: “Well, well, who do we have here? Isn’t this our Princess? How did you get in?”

Heavenly Note Sect slowly rose and with cold eyes said to the person before her: “Old woman, you’re no longer my match. Be careful with your words.”

“I’m old? I’ve been dead a long time, you’re the old one, obviously,” the State Preceptor laughed with a ‘hehe’: “Now, you’re older than me, you old hag.”

“Hehe,” Heavenly Note Sect coldly laughed: “Stop deluding yourself. Believe it or not, I can push you out into the sun right now?

“You know better than anyone whether you’re dead or not.”

“Old girl…” The State Preceptor sat up to face the person before her, as if she wanted to say something but was suddenly surprised: “Hmm? Something’s off with your vibe, the mark I left on you is gone?

“Have you been deflowered?

“Looks like it happened in the last four or five hundred years.

“Is there still a man in this world you fancy?

“What a waste, I actually wanted to introduce a man to you, but to think you’d be so undistinguished, finding one yourself.

“Has Helpless Heaven met him?

“Is he satisfied?”

“Unsatisfied,” Heavenly Note Sect replied.

At that, the State Preceptor covered her face in agony: “It’s over, like flowers stuck in cow dung. All the years raised in vain, Helpless Heaven didn’t stop you?”

Jiang Hao behind her had a face full of black lines.

The director was in a good mood at the moment.

Heavenly Note Sect chuckled and said, “Dead people can’t stop anything. In a few days, I’ll even bring him to pay respects to Helpless Heaven.”

“You want to anger him to death, don’t you?” The State Preceptor spoke.

“How does a dead person die?” Heavenly Note Sect replied again.

“It seems like you two aren’t having a pleasant fight,” deduced the State Preceptor, detecting the resentment in Heavenly Note Sect’s tone.

However, she was also quite curious about who could have married Heavenly Note Sect.

“Tell me, who married you? Did you bring him?” The State Preceptor asked.

Heavenly Note Sect looked past the State Preceptor and said, “He’s behind you, do you want to meet him? You might be unsatisfied too.”

The State Preceptor sighed and said, “I commiserate with you; I had chosen a very special person for you, but someone beat me to it.

“What a pity.

“Suddenly, I understand the importance of having a second child.”

Heavenly Note Sect sneered coldly: “You can’t give birth.”

The State Preceptor shook his head and said, “Forget it, bring the person over. I want to see for myself just how lacking someone who displeases Helpless Heaven is.”

Heavenly Note Sect lowered her eyes and said, “If you want to see him, shouldn’t you get up and walk over yourself?”

“Isn’t this arm twisting a bit too exaggerated?” The State Preceptor exclaimed in surprise, “Does he really make you that happy?”

At this moment, Jiang Hao hurriedly stepped forward, and took the opportunity to speak, “Junior will come over now.”

As he spoke, Jiang Hao came to Heavenly Note Sect’s side, and looking at the State Preceptor who was no different from before, he bowed respectfully, “Junior has seen the senior.”

“Senior?” The State Preceptor looked at Jiang Hao and said, “Your speech isn’t very pleasant to the ear, your appearance isn’t that outstanding, and your cultivation doesn’t even have Dao intent. What exactly about you has attracted her favor?”

Jiang Hao paused, then shook his head, “I don’t know either.”

He truly did not know.

The State Preceptor looked towards Heavenly Note Sect and asked, “What about him has attracted you?”

“Do you need a reason?”

“You don’t need a reason?”

“Why do you like Helpless Heaven?”

“Handsome and unrestrained, with an ambition that can swallow the sun and the moon, standing tall like the abyss, vast and mighty. Most importantly, we grew up together since we were young; he cherishes me, loves me, spoils me.”

Heavenly Note Sect looked coldly at the person before her and said, “We’re done here; let’s leave.”

“Huh?” Jiang Hao was taken aback for a moment; it seemed they had business to attend to.

“Forget it, I won’t ask for your reasons,” the State Preceptor shook her head and looked at Jiang Hao, “But your cultivation is too weak. Let me give you some guidance. It’s not difficult to realize the true meaning of the Tao.”

“You do have some strength after all.”

“But how old are you now?”

“Let’s see how your innate talents are and then test your strength.”

Hearing this, Heavenly Note Sect no longer thought about leaving and continued to maintain her indifferent expression.

Quietly, she stepped back to let Jiang Hao move forward to receive guidance.

The State Preceptor approved of Heavenly Note Sect’s actions.

Then she looked at the person before her and said, “Introduce yourself, your origin, name, and age.”

Jiang Hao looked at the person before him and, harboring no other thoughts, simply said, “Jiang Hao, the third top disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect, currently four hundred and fifty-two years old.”

“Four hundred and fifty-two?” The State Preceptor looked at the person before her and nodded slightly, “Has the Great Era begun?”

“It has begun.” Jiang Hao nodded.

“Did you reach this level of cultivation all because of the Great Era?”

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded again.

Most likely.

“Being nearly four hundred and fifty and close to becoming a True Immortal, yet without realizing immortal intent, you are considered a talent, but still quite average,” the State Preceptor shook her head slightly and sighed, “No matter, the future is long, and the way of the Tao is unpredictable.

“Since Heavenly Note Sect has taken a liking to you, that’s your good fortune.

“Today she brought you here, so I will teach you a lesson. Attack me with all your might, so I can see your foundation and what you’re lacking.”

“At the age of four hundred to aspire to immortality, you should be able to comprehend the Tao.”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised and said, “Attack with all my strength?”

“Yes, with all your strength.”

“Isn’t that somewhat dangerous?”

Upon hearing this, the State Preceptor laughed and said, “When I say attack with all your strength, just do it. Without any Tao, I could sit here and let you attack for a hundred years without you being able to scratch me.”

“Hurry up, I still need to figure out how you got in here.”

“Perhaps there will be more directions for research.”

Jiang Hao nodded slightly, “Then this junior will offend.”

“Come on then.” The State Preceptor was also very serious, “Remember to use all your strength.”

Jiang Hao responded affirmatively.

Following that, the Moon-Slaying saber appeared in his hand.

The moment he grasped the saber, his entire aura changed.

In the next instant, as the day and night inverted, The Shifting Star Technique was initiated, followed by a loud boom.

Space shattered, and as the sun and moon emerged, a brand new world bearing the vastness of the heavens descended with suppression.

Clang!

The Moon-Slaying saber was unsheathed, and the world trembled.

Then a slash fell.

Splitting the heavens and earth apart.

The State Preceptor, sitting in her seat, felt something was amiss the moment the other party grasped the saber.

But soon, she felt something locking onto her.

Then a slash fell, as if from a brand new world, descending upon her.

Her body trembled, the Tao wailed, the world shattered, and Dao intent evaporated.

Death loomed at her doorstep.

Without a doubt, the State Preceptor sensed death.

A hundred of her would die under this terrifying slash.

Huh?

In an instant, her brain couldn’t think.

Dumbfounded and at a loss.

It seems, things shouldn’t have developed this way.

What went wrong?
