A Top Scholar in Everything
Chapter 1335 - 1321: The Truth of the World
Gai Tianhan imagined many methods in his mind to determine the authenticity of this world, some he practiced, while others he did not take action on. Firstly, because they were inherently dangerous, and secondly, because he was not ready to accept the real world.
So.
This guy never went to do those things.
However.
Right now.
After learning the truth of the world from Baiyu’s mouth, he no longer had so many concerns, so these plans began.
The first place Gai Tianhan wanted to go.
Was the legendary North Netherworld, said to be the edge of the world, the end of everything. Anyone who enters the abyss will completely disappear and never appear again.
Baiyu and he set off directly.
North Netherworld.
To reach this place, one must first traverse several continents, then cross a vast ocean. Even if one spends their entire life, an ordinary person cannot complete such a long journey. Even for a cultivator, only those who have reached the realm of Gai Tianhan and Baiyu are qualified to cross continents.
Baiyu took a deep breath.
After several months of progress, the two finally arrived at the North Netherworld.
On the edge of the endless sea.
All the seawater flowed into a cliff like a black hole, even light couldn’t shine in, dead silent, quiet, with the seawater constantly flowing inward, yet nowhere flowing out.
"This is... the North Netherworld."
Gai Tianhan stood in the air, a hint of realization in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Outside this sea is chaos, nothing can be seen. Let me try to pass through here."
The cliff, deep beyond measure, like a dark abyss.
Truly too dangerous.
Even Baiyu felt that if he plunged into this North Netherworld, he probably wouldn’t be able to escape, this is far scarier than a black hole.
After all.
It comes from a Divine Spirit.
Although Gai Tianhan’s conviction was wavering, he still wanted to try and see if this world had a boundary.
He attempted to break through the edge of the sea, wanting to fly into the chaotic darkness.
However.
At the edge of the sea, above the abyss cliff, an invisible barrier blocked him.
Impossible to leave!
Even if he used all his strength to attack the barrier, it wouldn’t budge.
Looking at the swirling, rolling black mist outside the barrier, he stood in the air for a long time, then saw the stars in the deep night sky.
They were so bright, beautiful.
Flashing in the starry sky at an unknown great distance.
"Does your world have such a barrier too?"
Gai Tianhan’s tone was somewhat trembling.
Baiyu shook his head, "Of course not, if you’re not willing to give up, you can fly around this layer of barrier. Your world should be shrouded inside this barrier."
Gai Tianhan naturally was not willing to give up.
Very soon.
He and Baiyu started the next verification plan.
That was to fly around the entire barrier to see if there was a gap, and if there was no gap, it could be confirmed they were being enclosed inside this world.
Of course.
For many ordinary people, it is difficult to leave their country, or even their region or state within their lifetime, but for a cultivator as powerful as Gai Tianhan, flying around the continent isn’t much of a challenge.
It’s just.
It takes a longer time.
After several more months.
Gai Tianhan and Baiyu circled the entire continent, verifying Baiyu’s words.
The barrier.
Endless.
Encircling these pieces of continents, outside the barrier is an unchanging dark, chaos, a terrifying black.
Gai Tianhan clenched his fists.
The two.
Had already returned to Star Shining Sect.
"Do you believe now?"
Baiyu said, "What do you plan to do next? Continue to explore or find that Divine Spirit to ask what exactly is going on?"
Gai Tianhan took a deep breath, calming his excited emotions, a hint of discomfort in his eyes, "I still want to try one last time, if it doesn’t work, I will help you."
"Okay, what do you want to do?" Baiyu asked.
Gai Tianhan raised his head, looking at the Sun in the sky that continuously emits light and heat, "I want to see what the sky is actually like."
He naturally didn’t want to ascend.
But intended to fly directly up to see the Sun, Moon, stars in the sky...
In his imagination.
The Sun in the sky might be the legendary Divine Beast Three-legged Golden Crow, or perhaps an Immortal Artifact circulated from the Immortal Realm to the Lower Realm, continuously emitting heat in the sky. At worst, it is at least a big fireball.
Gai Tianhan took a deep breath.
Continuously, flying towards the sky, Baiyu did not go, he was not very clear on what the world’s Sun actually was.
Anyway, Gai Tianhan would tell him the result once back.
He didn’t need to bother flying up; this world, although with Spiritual Qi, its concentration is much lower than the Outer World, and the recovery speed of used Blood Qi is very slow.
Therefore.
Save when possible.
Baiyu didn’t have to wait long; after staying in the back mountain of Star Shining Sect for two days, Gai Tianhan returned. He looked very bad, like a beaten eggplant, completely devoid of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, unlike the higher-ups of Star Shining Sect.
"How was it?"
Baiyu asked.
Gai Tianhan sat beside him, as if drained of all strength, "Nothing, there’s nothing... hanging in the sky is just a painting."
"A painting?"
Baiyu felt a bit amused.
Gai Tianhan nodded, adding, "It’s just a painting, with a Sun painted on it... behind are the Moon and stars, all paintings."
This Divine Spirit really knows how to play.
Baiyu felt the whole thing was a bit absurd.
At least make a Sun, hanging a painting is too perfunctory.
"Do you want to break through?"
At this time.
Gai Tianhan said in a deep voice.
Baiyu nodded, "Yes, I must ascend to leave this world, but the ascension path has already been blocked by the Divine Spirit of Profound Origin Realm. So, I must get rid of this Divine Spirit to go out.
Your situation now is similar to mine.
Therefore.
We can cooperate."
Gai Tianhan thought for a while, then continued, "You should also have competitors, otherwise you wouldn’t act so cautiously.
I have at most two years.
If, in two years, you cannot reach the Feathered Realm suitable for ascension, then our cooperation is meaningless. In the Star Shining Sect’s forbidden area, an old ancestor in the Feather Transformation Realm left a legacy, but no one can inherit it. You can try it out, it may allow you to enter the Feather Transformation Realm faster."
Gai Tianhan’s position in the Star Shining Sect is very high.
For example, entering the forbidden area sort of thing.
He doesn’t need to inform anyone else, the key to the forbidden area is in his hand.
