Chapter 1143: There Are Heavens Beyond Heavens

"To be an apprentice?" Chu Xiaoqi was stunned, unable to believe his ears. This sudden turn of events…

Huang Zuntian stared at him and said, "With your current Aptitude, it is difficult to transcend this world. But I can take you to higher skies. Think about it carefully. If you refuse, I will not kill you, and we shall part ways here."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaoqi's heart raced.

No wonder this fellow didn't kill him before.

Chu Xiaoqi took a deep breath and asked, "What is your cultivation? A Grand Unity Golden Immortal?"

"A Grand Unity Golden Immortal? Hahahaha!"

Huang Zuntian laughed wantonly, his words filled with contempt and mockery.

Chu Xiaoqi was greatly shocked. To be so disdainful of the legendary Grand Unity Golden Immortal, could this person be a Saint from the ethereal myths?

Chu Xiaoqi was completely moved.

Such a great power, if he didn't seize this…

Ever since he left his grandfather, although he had encountered Opportunities, none could be considered a life-changing Opportunity. He gradually realized his own mediocrity, but there was always a drive pent up in his heart, called unwillingness to resign himself to fate.

Chu Xiaoqi gritted his teeth and asked, "Why do you value me?"

Huang Zuntian said bluntly, "You had a great creation in your past life, and your Luck is unpredictable. Perhaps you are very weak now, but I feel that you might be extraordinary in the future. Perhaps I am the noble person who will help you soar into the sky. It all depends on whether you are willing to believe."

Chu Xiaoqi couldn't help but think of the grandfather he met when he was young. Could it be that his grandfather also took a fancy to him because of his Luck?

As expected, I am born extraordinary!

Chu Xiaoqi hesitated for a moment but chose to follow Huang Zuntian.

The reason was simple: he could no longer grow within the God Race. In this Great War of Gods and Demons, he deeply realized his own weakness. Chen Jue killed his way in and out, unstoppable, while he was merely cannon fodder.

They had entered the God Race in the same batch, and Chen Jue was the same age as him…

Huang Zuntian said, "First, I will let you see how insignificant you are."

He waved his right hand and brought Chu Xiaoqi above the Dao Secret Realm. Chu Xiaoqi looked down and saw countless specks of light distributed in all directions.

"Those are small worlds. Each small world has the Immortal Realm, the Mortal Realm, and the Underworld—the Three Realms."

Huang Zuntian introduced them, and Chu Xiaoqi's eyes widened as he listened.

The Immortal Realm he was in was so vast, yet looking at it from this angle, it was actually so small.

Huang Zuntian took him out of the Dao Secret Realm and into the Blank Domain, then let him look again.

Unlike the Universe within the Dao Secret Realm, the starry sky was pale, but it was still dotted with dense, colorful lights in all directions.

"The place we were just in is one of the worlds below. It contains the small worlds I introduced to you earlier, as numerous as the stars."

Huang Zuntian's introduction shocked Chu Xiaoqi.

There are people beyond people, heavens beyond heavens!

This was the only feeling Chu Xiaoqi had at that moment.

Just then, a figure appeared before Huang Zuntian, startling Chu Xiaoqi into retreating. The newcomer was none other than the master of the Dao Secret Realm, Formless World, one of the Ten Absolute Prodigies of the first Chaos Grand Assembly.

Formless World looked even more dignified than before, his Aura in no way inferior to Huang Zuntian's.

Formless World scrutinized Chu Xiaoqi, making Chu Xiaoqi extremely nervous, forcing him to hide behind Huang Zuntian.

"This child's natural endowments are average, but his destiny is unpredictable. It's because of you, right?"

Formless World said. Huang Zuntian had isolated his communication with Chu Xiaoqi; apart from the Creator Daoist, no other existence could spy from a distance.

Huang Zuntian said, "Yes, he is my apprentice. I intend to Cultivate him and leave him in your Dao Secret Realm. You have no objections, right?"

Formless World smiled and said, "Naturally, no problem. I will look after him."

"That won't be necessary. Let him grow on his own. When he grows up, he will owe you a favor, and I will as well."

"Fellow Daoist, you joke. Given our relationship, why speak of favors?"

Formless World laughed, then disappeared. This was the sentence he wanted, so he did not stay any longer, avoiding Huang Zuntian's return.

After all, Huang Zuntian's Grandmist was more suitable for cultivation than the Dao Secret Realm; there was no need to force Chu Xiaoqi to stay in the Dao Secret Realm.

Chu Xiaoqi swallowed his saliva and asked cautiously, "Who was that just now?"

Huang Zuntian said indifferently, "You are not yet qualified to come into contact with him."

"Tch, just like my grandfather." Chu Xiaoqi curled his lips.

"Hmm? Who is your grandfather?" Huang Zuntian asked curiously.

"A person I met when I was young. I don't know his identity either."

Chu Xiaoqi did not overthink it and answered directly. With cultivation like Huang Zuntian's, he shouldn't be lying to him. Furthermore, Han Jue never demanded that he must not speak of their interaction.

At least in Chu Xiaoqi's memory, there was no such plot point. Regardless, over ten thousand years had passed, and this experience was no longer important.

"Then show his appearance," Huang Zuntian instructed.

Chu Xiaoqi waved his hand, and a figure shining with divine light appeared before him. He was stunned and cast the spell again.

No matter how he cast the spell, he could not manifest the face in his mind. This feeling was incredibly bizarre, making Chu Xiaoqi's hair stand on end.

Huang Zuntian was stunned. It really was him…

Huang Zuntian said in a deep voice, "Alright, from now on, do not tell anyone about your experience with this person. Just pretend this grandfather never existed. Do you understand?"

Chu Xiaoqi stopped his spell and nodded. He muttered in his heart. It seems my grandfather is not simple at all, for even such an existence to be so wary.

Chu Xiaoqi was about to ask Huang Zuntian if he knew his grandfather, but Huang Zuntian waved his hand and brought him back to the Immortal Realm.

The two landed in a mountain forest. Before Chu Xiaoqi could say more, Huang Zuntian began to teach him a Cultivation Technique.

Chu Xiaoqi's Cultivation Technique was too ordinary; reaching the Grand Unity Golden Immortal was already the limit. Huang Zuntian prepared to pass on his own mantle to Chu Xiaoqi.

Since he was someone the Master valued, he would teach him everything he knew.

…Han Jue stood in the Blank Domain, witnessing Huang Zuntian's performance.

Not bad. After becoming a Primordial Chaos Demon God, Huang Zuntian had not lost his loyalty to him.

It was good to let Chu Xiaoqi follow Huang Zuntian. Huang Zuntian was walking a Heaven-Defying path, and if Chu Xiaoqi followed him, he might learn a lot.

Han Jue stared at Chu Xiaoqi, feeling deeply moved.

The two grandsons he had personally cared for were not easy characters from birth; one was the Reincarnation of Hongmeng Despair, and the other wanted to destroy everything.

He wondered what their future relationship would be like. Han Jue was suddenly very expectant. Even if they became opponents, it would be interesting.

As for Chen Jue, whom Chu Xiaoqi revered, he was not held in high regard by Han Jue.

Chen Jue was just one of countless descendants, fortunate enough to receive his Heavenly Selection of Creation; he was nothing significant. In the future, more descendants would receive the Heavenly Selection of Creation.

Han Jue watched for a while before disappearing.

On the other side, in the Grandmist Great Hall, Han Huang opened his eyes, his brows furrowed tightly.

"Why can't my Grandmist condense the supreme rules…" Han Huang muttered to himself, his tone irritable.

A world with rules is considered a world, and a world with Great Dao rules is considered a Great World or a Great Dao World. But to reach the level of a Creator Daoist, the Great Dao World must condense supreme rules.
