say why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, Jiang Hao spent most of his time keeping an eye on Shan Qinghe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To see when he would betray the Western Astronomical Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he is also a known scholar in the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being a bit below in cultivation doesn't matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His knowledge, his abilities are enough to sustain his current position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Jiang Hao has a question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, Child Prodigies are usually trained from a young age, is Shan Qinghe a child prodigy now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what can be seen at the moment, it's hard to tell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Child Prodigies are just normal disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are no marks on their bodies, nor any abnormal aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it's hard to discern with the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the fifth millennium here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still waiting for Shan Qinghe to leave, but instead, it was the Corpse Clan that started causing trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They began to rise again for unknown reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must be that their backers have recovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Corpse Clan started causing chaos in the West, trying to overthrow the existing peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before Jing Dajiang could do anything,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jin appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, he stood above the Western Astronomical Academy, his towering body and breathing life-like aura began to surge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrifying aura, shaking all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a demon descending from heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His great luck linked to the West, naturally sensing what the Corpse Clan was planning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll be right back, what sort of level, and they think they can overturn the West?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, those in the academy were shocked by this scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For thousands of years, the existence of Gu Jin was unknown to most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But one thing is certain, he is a respected elder of the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Gu Jin's words, they felt their blood boiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What status does the Corpse Clan have?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who dares to make such outrageous claims?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On this day, Gu Jin went forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved against the Corpse Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a moment, Dao energy divine light surged, his hand alone shadowing the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The West was plunged into a new night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, countless members of the Corpse Clan exploded, in the blink of an eye, he suppressed the Corpse Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who could escape did, those who could not perished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wails filled the lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Corpse Clan was utterly annihilated, the remaining few fled in terror into Mountain Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, there were no more Corpse Clan in the West.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire West would propagate the prestige of the Western Astronomical

Western Astronomical Academy expanding again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it was infinitely close to what he recognized as the Ancient City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this was the final form of the Western Astronomical Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trouble was likely to follow soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That year, Jiang Hao saw Shan Qinghe comprehend a page of an ancient book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like others, he sat in front of a statue for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao knew what he had seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a corner of a page.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like what he had encountered in the beginning, or perhaps connected with the lingering consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pondered for a long time but did not leave the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he continued to stay in the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Acting as if nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao did not understand him but could continue to observe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eighth millennium.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This year, Jing Dajiang had only just reached True Immortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was extremely slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao was very disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dean also shook his head, now he had stepped down from the dean's position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He handed this position over to Jing Dajiang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing his slow pace in cultivation, he had him guard the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I, a Human Emperor, guard the door; a True Immortal guards the door; a Heavenly Immortal guards the door; and now a True Immortal still guards the door.\" Jing Dajiang looked at the dean and the Great Elder discontentedly: \"Haven't I been rightly promoted all along?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not exactly, as a Human Emperor you could only guard the door yourself, but as a True Immortal, you could make others guard the door,\" said the dean, laughing: \"After all, you are now the dean of the academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is my eight thousand years to True Immortal really that slow? I don't see anyone faster than me.\" Jing Dajiang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Without the Great Era, your eight thousand years to True Immortal is quick; with the Great Era's blessing, you should have reached True Immortal two thousand years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must remember you are the academy's number one talent.\" Jiang Hao spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Jing Dajiang laughed heartily: \"The Great Elder understands me, how could Gu Jin, that waste, ever surpass me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And they say he could be the dean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Waste is waste, is he even fit to be the dean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's only fit to be a respected elder of the academy, to embody the academy's heritage, and become an invincible force guarding the academy for me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am the real boss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the dean also burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three months later, the ceremony for the new dean began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jin also came out of seclusion on this day, sitting in a high position, watching below as Jing Dajiang achieved the role of dean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent was very smug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Gu Jin took him to an uninhabited area and gave him a beating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was during this relaxed period in the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The End of All Things intervened in the West, to revive some unknown existence, they sacrificed an entire city in the West in a blood ritual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood runs in rivers, bones are scattered everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless resentments surge to the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Millions of lives fall into pools of blood, children cry, adults strive to protect the young, the elderly beg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was veritably the Mortal World turned into purgatory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>News quickly reached the Western Astronomical Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Dajiang, still in the midst of a ceremony, was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless people were furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jin was furious to the extreme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one step, the heavens and earth changed color, and the Tao boiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if the Tao spanned across history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The End of All Things? You can all perish.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The worlds and times turned dim as the essence of history prevailed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed endless distances, destroyed the altar, killed the people of The End of All Things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, he entered the deep sea alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cause and effect manifested in front of him, countless people of The End of All Things were slain, their paths annihilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The slaughter stretched from the West unto the depths of the deep sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The End of All Things, shuddering in terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless people attempted to stop his slaughter, but nobody could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within six months, the sea area turned red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the deep sea, Gu Jin encountered the core members of The End of All Things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he killed them, tossing their heads into the Sea of Nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire area impacted by The End of All Things was annihilated by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Gu Jin finally returned to the Western Astronomical Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire process took five years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One and a half years spent killing, three and a half years missing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon his return, he met with the dean and Jiang Hao as usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, I think it's about enough, as now in the Great Era various mighty warriors have risen,\" Gu Jin said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao knew that he must have entered the Abyssal Sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without specific details from the other party, he himself could not know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the following words did surprise him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, I've recently gained some insights into the Tao, and I wish to discuss them with you,\" Gu Jin looked at the dean and Jiang Hao: \"I think the Tao should have dual aspects, flourishing and always ascending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, there must always be some place where the opposing Tao continuously descends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I mean is, the Tao encompasses everything, all matters and beings are the manifestation of the Tao, so what about us?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are we also a manifestation of the Tao?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the dean was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tao he had always comprehended naturally enveloped heaven and earth, but he never considered it to encompass himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tao also manifests including oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Momentarily, Jiang Hao felt an indescribable sensation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confusions he couldn't advance through were gradually peeling away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed about to find his own path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It should be so,\" the dean finally spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, Master, since the Tao has dualities, like I represent good, there must be an evil side to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is he me, or am I myself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or are both me?\" Gu Jin looked seriously at the two in front of him: \"So, I plan to forge either a sword or a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Find the other side of me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When the sword is forged, that will be the day it falls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To cut him down, and to cut down myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment these words fell, Jiang Hao's mind was shaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The good and evil Gu Jin, Gu Jin wielding the sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To cut down him as well as himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a flash, Jiang Hao seemed to see the Tao of Gu Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he also felt a great sensation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So this was the Tao of the mighty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbelievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Gu Jin stood up and smiled: \"Master, Great Elder, I am leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once I leave this time, I probably won't return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not only so, but the Great Era should also come to an end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't give approval, and the Great Era must not begin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I alone will suppress the Great Era.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unless someone surpasses me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Gu Jin mentioned something about a statue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dean said he would handle it, he could manage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thereafter, Gu Jin knelt down to kowtow, then left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the West, within the Mountain Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jin appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon a great battle erupted within the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Corse energy burst forth, shaking heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed someone attempted to ascend to Daluo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, with a palm from Gu Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The road to Daluo was severed, corpse energy disbursed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately the presence disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Gu Jin turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, in another mountain range, great luck surged, seemingly continuously blessing this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person intended to emerge from the soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, a battle artifact fell, the great luck dispersed, the presence collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then a palm struck out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All returned to peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Gu Jin looked beyond the West: \"It's time to go to the eastern region and see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as he left, Gu Jin turned to look towards the Western Astronomical Academy:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There will be a time of reunion, just that...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When we meet again, I am both myself and not myself\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1814,"2026-06-03T11:46:43.650Z","2026-06-03T11:46:51.109Z",1,"novelbin.me","ac46b440f57bdc6f3a2021ba624105b26f4b1308298f89ac579a6bc11f2a6280","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1906","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1904",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
