I Have Awakened The Deduction System

Chapter 389 Heartless Heavenly Dao

Gu Mingzhou was not as carefree as Floating Jade Island Master. He had many things to do.

Therefore, he couldn't live in seclusion and cultivate alone for a hundred years. He didn't have much time to spend in this world.

To Gu Mingzhou, the heavenly realm was a journey that he had to embark on.

However, before the Island Master of Floating Jade Island could answer, Gu Mingzhou, who had voiced the question in his heart, revealed a bitter smile. It was obvious that he had not found the way to ascend.

Otherwise, why would he stay in seclusion on the Floating Jade Island for hundreds of years and cultivate painstakingly? Even if he had advanced into the earth realm, why would he still stay here?

Gu Mingzhou already had the answer in his heart.

In fact, he had long found the answer in his heart, but he was unwilling to believe it.

However, life was like this. Whether one was willing to believe it or not, the result would always be the same, good or bad.

"Look at you, which part of you looks like an almighty cultivator? Let me tell you, if you had asked me before, you might have gotten the same answer in your heart!" the Floating Jade Island Master laughed as he spoke.

"But fortunately, I've already found the way to ascend. Haha!" Floating Jade Island Master's hearty laughter instantly reverberated throughout the palace.

Gu Mingzhou's eyes widened in disbelief. He looked at the Island Master of Floating Jade Island, not knowing what to say.

Now, he felt as if he was in a dream. It was as if he was in an illusion, and his ears were ringing. It made him feel that the words of the Floating Jade Island Master were so unreal that he thought he had heard them wrongly.

"You didn't hear wrong, I've already found the way to ascend!" the Island Master of Floating Jade Island retracted his smile and suddenly became serious. He looked at Gu Mingzhou and spoke seriously.

"Brother Liu, is what you said true?" Gu Mingzhou looked nervously at the Island Master of Floating Jade Island and only asked after a long while.

"You are the benefactor of the Floating Jade Island, why would I lie to you? It's just that the method is a bit dangerous, so even if I know, I don't dare to try it."

Seeing Gu Mingzhou's expression, Floating Jade Island Master could not help but smile and pat his shoulder.

Gu Mingzhou came back to his senses.

He naturally knew how great the danger was. Otherwise, the Floating Jade Island Master would have ascended long ago and not remained on the Floating Jade Island, almost falling into the trap of others.

Even though he knew the method was very dangerous, Gu Mingzhou still wanted to know. He wanted to try.

"I wonder what the method is?" He asked. No matter how dangerous it was, he still wanted to try.

Having hope was better than having no hope.

"To be able to break through the core and fuse with the foundation in this world with thin spiritual energy is enough to prove that you are not stupid. I'm still here, so I can't figure out the danger of this method!" The Floating Jade Island Master's face was expressionless as he retracted his gaze after a long while.

Gu Mingzhou knew what the Floating Jade Island Master meant and also knew that he had good intentions.

Anyone who found they had no way out and suddenly found a way out would very likely take a risk and fight with all their might.

Sometimes, he had no choice but to do so.

He had to go to the heavenly realm.

There was no way to enter the heavenly realm safely.

ZhaoQiankun and Gu Mingzhou did not know anything else. No matter how dangerous the method was, he had to do it!

"I know, but I have no choice but to go to the upper realm. Thus, I hope Brother Liu can teach me!" Gu Mingzhou cupped his hands and bowed to the Island Master of Floating Jade Island.

The way to enter the upper realm was too crucial to Gu Mingzhou.

"Since you insist on this, follow me!" The Island Master of Floating Jade Island stood up to support Gu Mingzhou, preventing him from bowing down. He let out a long sigh.

The Floating Jade Island Master turned around and walked out of the palace.

Gu Mingzhou did not dare to hesitate. He quickly followed closely behind the Floating Jade Island Master.

There were too many things to do on Floating Jade Island, so there was no time to repair the main palace of Floating Jade Island. It was still the same as three days ago.

Broken walls and debris flew everywhere.

The walls were covered in cracks, and the rubble was in a mess. The roof of the front hall was almost non-existent, and it looked like an abandoned, dilapidated ruin. It had lost all of its former glory.

"I'm sorry, but the human clan wants to hold a memorial service for the former clan leader here. I also want the rogue cultivators of Floating Jade Island to remember the previous disaster, so I didn't repair the main palace of Floating Jade Island for the time being. I hope you can forgive me for my poor hospitality." The Island Master of Floating Jade Island turned to look at Gu Mingzhou and said apologetically.

"So it's to commemorate the clan leader, that's why you didn't repair the main palace of the Floating Jade Island." Gu Mingzhou said.

The Lord of Floating Jade Island walked towards the main palace of Floating Jade Island.

Looking at the dilapidated main palace of the Floating Jade Island, his heart was filled with endless emotions. However, he did not dare to stop and quickly followed.

In the main palace of Floating Jade Island, many rogue cultivators were busy preparing for the memorial ceremony for clan leader Wang Meng.

They were reminiscing about the rogue cultivators of the Floating Jade Island who had died in this disaster.

When they saw the Island Master of Floating Jade Island walk in, they all bowed very respectfully and did so toward Gu Mingzhou.

Compared to their respect for the Island Master of Floating Jade Island, these people looked at Gu Mingzhou with a hint of wariness and fear.

The strength Gu Mingzhou displayed was too strong. He was comparable to the king in their hearts.

The Island Master of Floating Jade Island gestured for the rogue cultivators to continue with their work as he continued to walk into the depths of the palace.

Gu Mingzhou followed closely behind the Floating Jade Island Master.

He walked silently and quickly into the depths of the hall. The spiral tunnel leading to the underground was an underground palace.

The underground palace, which was built entirely of bluestone, occupied almost the entire underground space of the main palace on Floating Jade Island. It was extremely wide.

It didn't have any decorations and looked extremely simple.

The underground palace was in a circular shape, closely connected to each other to form a circle underground.

And in the middle of the circle, the altar was emitting a heart-palpitating aura.

There were eighteen corpses on the altar.

Their aura had been severed, and their soul was no longer there!

"They are all cultivators who have been abandoned like us. They could have continued to survive in this world, but they were too anxious."

"These are all beings that can't attract the lightning tribulation to temper their bodies and ascend to the heavenly realm?" Gu Mingzhou's face was filled with surprise as he looked at the corpse on the altar.

Since ancient times, in the hearts of cultivators, the only outcome of failing to transcend the tribulation was death!

An exception like Gu Mingzhou was hard to find.

Gu Mingzhou was already very surprised to meet the Floating Jade Island Master.

Now, the other party was telling him that the dozens of cultivators who had passed away on the altar had all failed their tribulations and were unable to ascend to the upper realm. They had failed in their final attempt and died!

This was a little unacceptable to Gu Mingzhou.

Since when were there so many cultivators who failed to pass the tribulation and didn't die?

"What's wrong? Are you surprised?" The Island Master of Floating Jade Island suddenly turned to look at Gu Mingzhou, a bitter smile on his lips.

"I'm indeed a little surprised or in disbelief!" Gu Mingzhou nodded and replied softly.

"The world is misled by the heavenly Dao." The Floating Jade Island Master looked away and turned back to the altar.

In fact, failing to pass the tribulation didn't necessarily mean death!

For some reason, in this deep underground palace, Gu Mingzhou felt a breeze blow past. It was a little cold, a little bone-chilling, and made him shiver.

"The lightning tribulation is terrifying, but the living was more determined! They're only intentionally erasing those cultivators who failed their tribulations and became mortals who can no longer cultivate." The Floating Jade Island Master seemed to not have noticed the cold wind blowing past, or perhaps he had long been accustomed to it. He looked at the altar and said indifferently.
