"Were there any other people who ascended to immortality after that?"
Gu Heng thought about it carefully.
"Some have owners, some do."
Xiao Bai affirmed, "Although the Origin Realm is barren, its spiritual energy has improved considerably thanks to the feedback from the Upper Realm. According to what she said when she contacted me last time, several of your close friends have successfully ascended, but she didn't specify who they were at the time."
Gu Heng nodded, his heart filled with anticipation.
It seems everyone is keeping moving forward, and we'll be able to meet again in this new world, which doesn't feel bad at all.
"After all, she considered many things in order to penetrate deep into the Epochal Cemetery to rescue you. Among these considerations, having her own power was crucial; no one else could be trusted..."
Suddenly, Xiaobai noticed that Gu Heng's eyes had become puzzled.
"Xiaobai, you just said that Yiyao planned to enter the Epoch Graveyard to rescue me, but how did she know I was in the Epoch Graveyard?"
He sensed something was wrong.
He was tricked by the woman from that magical civilization and fell into her trap.
Although Qin Yiyao was present at the time, she was under someone else's control and could not possibly have known that the trap would send her to the Epoch Cemetery.
The whole process was extremely brief and abrupt. For a long time afterward, he was disoriented and had no idea where he was. If he hadn't encountered the organization formed by the prisoners in that "prison," he probably would never have known.
So, how did she know?
Upon hearing this, Xiaobai's expression instantly turned serious, and a complex light flashed in his eyes.
“Master, this is exactly what I wanted to tell you, about that day after you were sent away… another key point.” Xiao Bai’s voice lowered, carrying a solemnity as if revealing a long-buried secret.
"The one who plotted against you was that woman, and the man beside her, do you remember him?"
Gu Heng's eyes narrowed.
"of course I remember."
That's impossible to forget; two figures in the vast void are so easy to remember.
There were seven people who wanted to cause him trouble, and five of them are still trapped inside the "Black Hole Battle Star" created by the system.
He had set a trap for them, even using one of their six companions as bait. But to his surprise, two of them were vigilant enough not to fall for it.
Yin Ya, from a magical civilization, and Enlai Ke, from a wizarding civilization.
It was precisely those two who tricked him!
It was that Enrico who used some evil trick on the little girl, using his most trusted apprentice to lure her into a trap!
Gu Heng still held a grudge about this.
He's not one to suffer a loss easily; if he does, he'll definitely get his revenge.
"According to your apprentice, after that woman succeeded, he also wanted to kill her to eliminate any future trouble!"
Gu Heng's heart clenched, as if he could imagine the desperate situation Qin Yiyao faced at that moment. Even knowing the outcome, he still felt a suffocating anger.
"But she was suddenly killed by that man!"
"what?"
Gu Heng was startled. "I also find it quite strange. Those two are not on the same side, and the timing of their betrayal is also quite bizarre."
"He only made his move after you had already been hit by his attack..."
Xiao Bai's voice carried a hint of coldness. Although he wasn't there at the time, he could sense from Qin Yiyao's narration that the sudden betrayal was anything but ordinary!
"and then?"
Gu Heng pressed for an answer.
"He did not lay a hand on your disciple, but told her that you had actually been sent to the Epoch Graveyard, where you might be safe for the time being. He also warned her that if she were to ascend from the Origin Realm one day, she should not freely proclaim her origins and background there."
What Xiaobai said was exactly what Qin Yiyao had told them, word for word.
More than a decade has passed, but when Xiaobai looks back, he feels there are still many mysteries.
"..."
Gu Heng remained silent, his brows furrowed.
Enlaico, betrayed us?
Zero was initially convicted because he couldn't outmaneuver the system and was instead controlled by it, but Enrico doesn't seem like the kind of person who would betray others.
and.
If he was going to betray her, why did Enlai set a trap for Yinya and use the little girl as bait to lure him into it?
What is he planning?
Enrico's motives are rather bizarre.
Is there someone else behind him? Is there a ulterior motive behind telling the little girl this news, or is he even trying to guide her towards something?
Was Qin Yiyao and the others' plans for development across the myriad worlds also part of their scheme? A chill crept into Gu Heng's heart.
The relief of escaping the Epoch Cemetery was now replaced by a deeper sense of solemnity stemming from the unknown.
"Your apprentice was filled with grief and indignation at the time, but he also remembered the place called the Epoch Cemetery very well."
Xiao Bai's voice broke the silence: "Later, after we ascended to heaven, we inquired from many sources and finally understood what the 'Epoch Graveyard' meant..."
When they first learned where Gu Heng had been sent, they were all a little shocked.
The Epochal Cemetery, the foremost of the eight great secret lands of the myriad realms!
A place where the remnants of countless civilizations remain, a desolate burial ground for gods of bygone eras!
The most heinous criminals in many civilizations were also exiled to the Epoch Graveyard, where they were tortured to death by the corrosive influence of those concepts!
It was a place where once you entered, you could never come out. But Qin Yiyao was only slightly shaken for a moment. She continued to act according to her original plan. Once she was fully prepared and powerful, she would definitely challenge the top of that secret place that was said to be a place where you could only enter and never leave!
Xiao Bai looked at Gu Heng, her eyes filled with admiration and emotion: "I just didn't expect that you, Master, would escape from that legendary perilous place on your own, saving you from countless dangers!"
"Yes, it saved you a huge amount of trouble."
Gu Heng gave an awkward smile.
He was incredibly lucky to escape from the Epoch Cemetery, since he wasn't the only one to do so.
The entire Gravedigger organization, everyone who survived to the end, came out.
No one expected that there was such a powerful sage in the Epoch Cemetery who was able to send them all out in the end. However, Gu Heng disliked the arrangements made after he was sent out.
The entire tomb keeper was going to join the ranks of that "enemy of the era." Wasn't this like escaping from the tiger's mouth only to fall into the wolf's den again?
So he ran away.
It is better to enjoy the happiness of others than to enjoy it alone.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Anyway, I'm out now, and I won't forget anything I need to figure out."
"Once I've finished dealing with matters related to science and technology, I'll go see my apprentice!"
Gu Heng was already getting impatient.
At this time.
Xiao Bai looked outside.
coming.
The bloodline imprint within his body was gradually heating up, indicating that the dragon with whom he had formed a bloodline pact was approaching.
When Bai Jun realized he hadn't come out with that group of prodigies, he must have been extremely anxious.
But it's impossible not to rush. Xiao Bai knows that he is the only hope for the Bai Feng clan. Whether the entire clan can climb up from the fourth-grade bloodline depends entirely on him.
Xiao Bai already had a plan in mind.
Bai Jun would never let him leave; the head of that clan had a heavy burden and great responsibility.
That is precisely why Bai Jun is worth using.

PS: Good news! On June 6.14th, they were taken down by the Red Wolves and Dragons duo, and No. 16 will be banned for ten years.
Then I quit Delta.
Bad news: Dark Zone and DNF are much more fun.
Forcibly shutting down the TV station is a bit outrageous, and Golden Township is really hard to watch.
