Chapter 1310 Rising to Fame (1)

Toad Fish Palace

Su Ping followed Chan Gong and returned to the side palace where he cultivated.

“Congratulations. You’re now a Dao Child of this institute. Your badge will be made and given to you soon; it contains three primordial arrays that can help you resist a God Emperor’s attack, hide your aura, or teleport you to escape. All of them are of God Emperor level.”

Chan Gong chuckled and added, “The badge will grant you absolute safety, unless you encounter a tricky God Emperor.”

Su Ping was surprised, not thinking that the badge itself would be as powerful. The Dao Child title was truly extraordinary.

“Resources will be allotted after you receive the badge, and should be enough to help you become a God King. You’re also free to pick any of the three Ancestral Gods’ secret techniques of this institute!” said Chan Gong.

Su Ping was shocked by that last part. There were actually three Ancestral Gods in the Heaven Path Institute!

No wonder it was an invincible faction, with lots of students.

“I’ll introduce to you the elders and their fields of expertise. You may seek their help in the future if you have any questions. They’re generally glad to help you, as long as they’re not cultivating in seclusion,” said Chan Gong.

Su Ping nodded.

Chan Gong then raised a finger and transmitted a huge amount of information into Su Ping’s head.

Su Ping took a moment to digest the information and his shock grew. There were actually twenty-three elders in the Heaven Path Institute!

Most of them were good at attacking and killing, but they specialized in different aspects. Some were great assassins, while others preferred head-on fights; their techniques were vastly different. There were also elders who were good at refining, making pills, setting up arrays, and taming beasts.

All those elders were very popular in the institute because of their special skills.

Su Ping was amazed by the Heaven Path Institute’s power. He said to Chan Gong, “Elder Chan, I have a favor to ask of you. I wonder if you could help me.”

“Tell me about it.” Chan Gong chuckled.

“I came across a fragment of the gods’ world by chance. It’s inhabited; however, they were left in the void on that broken piece of land. All of them are eager to return home; I wonder if the elders could help recover that piece of land,” said Su Ping.

COV

“A broken piece of our land?”

Chan Gong was clearly surprised. “The gods’ world is indestructible, how can there be a fragment floating somewhere out there? How did you find it? Your universe is powerful enough. Why didn’t you pull them into your universe to bring them here?”

“My universe doesn’t have the capacity to receive that piece of land,” Su Ping explained, “That land was broken when the gods’ world was invaded. The gods’ world was eventually reassembled, but that fragment was left out. It must have drifted too far away…”

“Wait, you’re saying that the gods’ world was broken and reassembled?” Chan Gong interrupted Su Ping and asked in surprise, “Who told you that? That is absolutely outrageous. Even if you are a Dao Child now, you shouldn’t say things like that easily.”

Su Ping felt dazed after seeing the elder’s solemn expression. Although the matter was a secret, Chan Gong was a God Emperor, and should be powerful enough to know about it.

Also, he was a Dao Child now. It was unnecessary to keep that matter a secret.

“Elder Chan, may I ask how long you’ve cultivated?” asked Su Ping prudently.

Stunned for a moment, Chan Gong calculated quickly and said, “I reckon it’s more than 300,000 years. I should have heard about it if it did happen in the past.”

Su Ping blinked. 300,000 years was indeed a long time. The fact puzzled him; it was odd that the elder didn’t know the secret. Could there be some other reason that caused the matter to be covered up?

However, the breaking and reassembly of the gods’ world was a huge event. How could it be kept a secret from billions of people?

Also, why keep it a secret? Su Ping couldn’t figure out why, but he didn’t think Elder Chan was lying. The guy probably didn’t know.

Elder Chan was also thinking quickly, noticing how Su Ping was deep in thought. He said to Su Ping, “If what you said is true, I can help you look for answers. Do you know the exact location of that land fragment?”

“No.” Su Ping shook his head.

“If we don’t have coordinates, we would have to search aimlessly, unless we ask an Ancestral God to calculate the location with the great Dao…” Chan Gong glanced at Su Ping. He wouldn’t mind doing this for Su Ping’s sake. However, he couldn’t ask an Ancestral God to aid them in something so uncertain.

Chan Gong shook his head and said, “The Ancestral Gods spend all their time traveling in the Dao rivers, only leaving part of their thoughts behind. They never awaken, unless there are emergencies. All the Ancestral Gods have transcended life and all cycles. They’re pursuing real eternity!” Su Ping was at a loss, not thinking that his new position would still be insufficient to solve that problem.

Could he only ask Heather and the others to receive all the inhabitants of the Demigod Burial into their universes, and then transfer them to the gods’ world through his own universe?

That would entail leaving the Demigod Burial fragment.

However, it was the only way for them to go home.

Su Ping heaved a sigh and stopped thinking about it. Maybe he would be able to help them return with both land and people when he became an Ancestral God.
