Chapter 1246 Gou Dao\'s Rise
A young man dressed in white with luscious black hair, smooth skin, a well-defined jawline, pointy eyebrows, and burned flesh on the right side of his neck suddenly opened his eyes, showing his bright blue eyes.
"Did something happen?" the handsome man muttered before using his finger to calculate. The results were vague, making him frown. Instead, he summoned a pair of extremely white bones and randomly tossed them before him.
His blue eyes lit up as he observed the patterns the bones made as they landed. "My first disciple…and my Fate Nexus?" The young man swiftly checked his fate, and as expected, it was time for him to experience that event.
\'I can finally get rid of this burdened destiny,\' the young man, also known as Han Fa, thought excitedly. However, he quickly calmed himself down. \'But, what does this have to do with that idiot disciple? Why couldn\'t I divine anything?\' These thoughts alerted him, making the Han Fa enter careful mode.
He activated his [Catastrophe Eyes], a physique he created and elevated to the peak of the world.
\'What the hell did this bastard do?\' Han Fa thought. He just detected that if he were not careful, that stupid disciple would draw him into a whirlpool of events with disasters, catastrophes, trials, and tribulations everywhere.
\'I knew that stupid disciple would be my downfall one day,\' Han Fa. Compared to the second, the first did not inherit enough of his cautious nature.
"The worst part is I still need to know what happened to him," Han Fa complained. He needed to deal with that Fate Nexus so fate could stop paying attention to him, and he could continue his peaceful life. In other words, as long as that Fate Nexus still exists, he will never be able to sleep peacefully.
\'I guess I have to take some risks,\' Han Fa thought before glancing outside the cave. If anyone were here, they would be shocked, no, terrified, at the level of security/protection in this hidden cave.
First, the cave was inside a dimension built from Karmaless Crystal, making it an excellent place to isolate any form of karmic/causality detection. Secondly, there was a Sea of Immortal Energy around this cave, which was so intense that it was enough to train more than a dozen Immortal Kings. However, Han Fa used the energy to interfere with all kinds of detection methods.
The third layer of protection was the countless formations around. There were millions of them, and they involved myriad aspects: anti-divination, anti-calculation, anti-karma detection, anti-time retrograding techniques, information control, and many others. Finally, there is the secret Transmission Array that will teleport the hidden cave to different locations in case of an emergency, including to other Chaos Worlds, the River of Time, or the Source Qi Space.
However, this was not the end.
The fourth layer was the Chaos World, called the Dao Abandoning World. This place had this name for a reason: Grand Dao abandoned this world, thus limiting the latter\'s influence/control over it. This world\'s situation limited the use of many techniques, turning it into a perfect hiding place.
This place\'s fifth and final layer of protection was the fact that Han Fa was a Fateless. In his life, he took a few risks, and one of them was to kill a Fateless to get the status — just like Wang Wei.
Han Fa held a communication talisman in his hand, his face very ugly. He was angry that his stupid disciple was putting him in danger. He trained them because he knew they might be helpful one day. He\'s alone, and sometimes, having a few powerful allies might be beneficial for his survival. Of course, his primary reason for acquiring disciples was because he deduced it was the best way to get rid of his Fate Nexus.
After Han Fa sent that talisman, Primordial Chaos experienced a small but unnoticeable vibration. It was like someone dropped a stone on a large body of water, but no one detected the fluctuations. The talisman headed to one Chaos World before disappearing as if it never existed. However, its message was then redirected to more than a thousand Chaos Worlds. It went back and forth another thousand times through the Source Qi Space and another thousand dimensions in Primordial Chaos before reaching the Eternal Ascension World.
While this message traveled to these worlds, countless people of different races, sexes, and cultivation realms were involved. These people never met each other and had no connection whatsoever—except to Han Fa. However, if anyone were to look at them, they would never know this since Han Fa erased the karmic connection he had with these people. They\'ve never met Han Fa, known his name, or seen his face. However, he secretly helped them and left them with a binding contract.
When the message arrived, these people followed the proper procedure and sent it to the designated area by the contract. Then, they erased their mind of the fact that they\'ve received any kind of information. Some people had harsher contracts and had no choice but to enter reincarnation to hide the message tract. Some people were embedded with terrifying curses to kill whoever tried to get the information from them.
Han Fa did all this to ensure no one could trace the message to him. He was so careful because the Eternal Ascension World had those monstrosities called Half-Step Transcendent. His train of thought was if one of those two captured his message and tried to trace it back to him, the trouble would deter them, and if not, it should buy him enough time for his Catastrophe Eye to warn him of danger and he can run away.
Han Fa\'s message did not reach Old Man Dai\'s until after his fight with Wang Wei a hundred years later. However, that\'s only relative to the Eternal Ascension World. This message took different times in different Chaos Worlds, making it hard to calculate how long had passed for Han Fa. However, in some places, more than a million passed before the message was transmitted to its following location.
The message silently reached the Eternal Ascension World. Supreme Unity and Maitreya did not notice for two reasons. Firstly, they were locked in battle. Secondly, many top factions communicate with other Chaos Worlds. These communications stopped or were reduced to a minimum after the Ultimate Taboo, but since the parasites left for the frontier to stop the invasions, they became increasingly more frequent. So, Han Fa\'s message could easily enter undetected underneath the countless other more open modes of communication.
Old Man Dai was happy to suddenly receive news from his master. The message was encrypted, so he had to spend time using their sect\'s unique decoding method before he knew its content. He was then slightly surprised by his master\'s content and replied accordingly. The return message experienced a similar process before arriving, but this time, it was another group of people unrelated to the first.
Dao Abandoned World:
"Gou Dao?" Han Fa muttered. "So, my destiny was to build a new philosophy." If it were any other individuals, they would be pretty excited. After all, only a few people had such destiny, the most famous being the creators of Taoism, Buddhism, and the Way of Virtue — also called the Scholarly Way, the Gentlemen Way, or the Way of Literature.
"Now, I finally understand why I felt that unfilial bastard was connected to me," Han Fa muttered. He had a third disciple that he took after leaving the Eternal Ascension World. That disciple was the most talented of the three. He became a peak Empyrean in rapid record, and Han Fa was confident he would be the second Boundless Paragon in their faction.
However, the third disciple only absorbed a small part of his philosophy. The third one wished to create a large faction, to gather people who wanted to cultivate peacefully without getting involved in the chaos and strife of the cultivating world. However, Han Fa disagreed with this idea. It was one thing if it was a hidden faction, but his disciple wanted a proper sect.
"Since he wants the limelight so bad, he can have it," Han Fa muttered. "He can inherit the destiny of the Gou Dao School, and I can get rid of Fate\'s sight."
Han Fa chuckled before sending words to his third disciple. He was not as paranoid as when he contacted the first, but it was still very hidden. Han Fa exhaled, feeling a burden uplifted from his mind. He looked in the distance, his mood suddenly becoming somber: n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
\'What should I do now?\' Han Fa had hit a wall. He became a peak Boundless Paragon before the Ultimate Taboo, and since then, no matter what he tried, he made no progress. After many failures, he decided to temper his body and recently opened the Gate of Flesh. Han Fa knew this path would increase his survivability and strength, but it would not help him reach the next realm.
\'Do I have to take the risk and participate in the upcoming tribulation to have a chance at enlightenment?\'
