No one noticed that throughout the initial battle, the person who called himself the Nine Nether Distant Lord was nowhere to be seen. Had he sensed the situation and left long ago? I don't deny it. Was he off doing something else? 0
 
Gu Ping furrowed his brow slightly at Yi Dong, pushing Zhang Liuyuan out of his mind. Although allowing someone who had been hiding for so many years to vanish from everyone's sight was a dangerous thing, sometimes strength was the most crucial factor. 0
 
That senior sister had said that as long as I possessed enough power, I could ignore any schemes and plots. In the face of absolute strength, any arrangement was nothing more than a child's game, utterly useless. 0
 
The time was drawing near. 0
 
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, glanced at Yi Dong's Jade Token. That Jade Token was equipped for the guardians of the Eastern Extreme Secret Realm, one for each person, and it marked the time to enter the Eastern Extreme Secret Realm during that secret realm hunt. 0
 
There were still three hours left; he wondered if they would miss their chance to leave. 0
 
Tan Siyuan walked to the railing and looked eastward. After all, only the victors could receive rewards from the Demonstration; those who failed would end up with nothing. 0
 
They wouldn't want to be eliminated, especially since Tenglan Shixiong's strength would surely secure him the top spot in this Eastern Peak Demonstration. If that happened, the rewards would have nothing to do with them. 0
 
Qin Wenjun's face bore a hint of sadness. Bu Luo had been exposed to such things since childhood; he was well aware of the frequently used strategies. 0
 
I held onto my Jade Token while they handed all their tokens over to Tenglan Shixiong to ensure his victory over Liu Dong. 0
 
Gu Ping tossed his Jade Token to Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. He had a premonition that some people might not wait until the Eastern Peak Demonstration ended before making their move against him. 0
 
Why should I give it to you? With my strength, I could easily overpower everyone. 0
 
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, accepted Gu Ping's Jade Token, which bore the characters Xuanming on one side and depicted a flattened Eastern Peak on the other. 0
 
He was Gu Ping. 0
 
After saying that, Gu Ping's gaze suddenly turned extremely cold, reminiscent of when he first entered the academy. At that moment, his eyes were devoid of spirit due to a disconnection between his soul and body. But now, Gu Ping's emotions were clearly expressed from deep within his heart. 0
 
 
The statement was brief, yet it carried immense weight. Although Tan Siyuan, the Outer Sect Disciple, was unaware of the implications, Teng Minqi, the former Eldest Disciple of the academy, understood what that name represented. He was even more aware of the significance behind the name Minghong. 0
 
What exactly was The Book of Radiant Path? Even if they were told about it, they would likely think it was merely a book or perhaps something documenting certain events. Even Gan Yuan and Gu Ping from three years ago might have felt the same way. 0
 
However, if Ming Gu Ping knew, he would realize how wrong that assumption was—terribly wrong. 0
 
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, and Gan Yuan, as the officially recognized True Inheritance, were destined to become the future Master of the Academy. Tenglan knew many things about the celestial realm, including The Book of Radiant Path. 0
 
The term Dao Foundation was not widely circulated in the World of Dust because there was no Dao Foundation in that realm. All knowledge of Dao Foundation came from various Daoist Masters, which gave those Daoist Sects the confidence to establish their own schools. 0
 
Even if a sect's city were breached, as long as there was a Dao Zun and a Dao Foundation, the Dao Tradition would not be severed. The Daoist Sect could continue to thrive. That was the significance of Negation Foundation—inscribed with the words "I don't deny" or similar concepts—representing a form of Dao. 0
 
But what exactly is Dao? That question could likely only be answered by a Dao Zun. 0
 
At that moment, Tenglan's left leg trembled slightly. 0
 
Was it so heavy to bear? 0
 
Gu Ping slightly curled his lips into a smile that should have appeared warm and inviting but instead felt like a descent into an abyss. 0
 
The others did not understand what the two were discussing; they remained silent and did not interject. Wen Tian had learned about Gu Ping's true identity when he previously informed Xiazhi about him but did not expect Gu Ping to acknowledge it willingly. Hearing Tenglan's question now made Wen Tian smile bitterly, feeling utterly helpless. 0
 
After a long pause, Tenglan closed his eyes and said, "What I said was wrong; it holds no significance." 0
 
Tenglan understood that Gu Ping was not mistaken. If The Book of Radiant Path were to be given to the academy, then Light Path Classic would bring trouble to Gu Ping and the academy. Although the academy might not fear it, offending a dying Daoist Sect over something unnecessary was not worth it. Even Bright Red Person would not risk The Book of Radiant Path. 0
 
But what if it were given to Jade Void Sect? Would Jade Void Sect protect Gu Ping? That was another matter entirely. If Light Path Classic were involved, it would become a target for everyone. Thus, whether or not they revealed "I don't deny" held little significance; what mattered was whether Light Path Classic possessed enough power—power strong enough for those Daoist Sects to reconsider their actions—and who exactly held The Book of Radiant Path. 0
 
 
They were all wary, and there was one who had a firm grip on his leg. I wondered which way he could lean. 0
 
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, shook his head. He knew that at this moment, Gu Ping was like a tightrope walker; one misstep would send him plummeting into an endless abyss, where he would be shattered to pieces, with no second chance for Coco. 0
 
Why should I speak out? 0
 
You can evade the first day of the month, but not the fifteenth. Does the Daoist Sect really need evidence? 0
 
Another question that doesn’t require an answer. The phrase "no reason" can apply anywhere, in any era, to anyone without raising eyebrows. Some people and some events simply don’t need justification or proof. 0
 
The cold wind swept across everyone’s faces, causing them to shiver involuntarily. 0
 
Why didn’t I just take him down earlier? 0
 
Xiao Zhang looked at Yang Sheng, his eyes filled with a provocative glint. 0
 
Could I take both of them on? 0
 
There are too many of them. 0
 
Does having more people really matter? 0
