Even the sound of breathing was nearly inaudible.

Cheng Guang was puzzled about what Deng was staring at in the sky. Was he still bothered about the incident that had just happened?

Cheng Guang knew that Deng’s state wasn’t quite right at the moment, oddly similar to when he was lost in thought while pondering something.

Cheng Guang specifically instructed Qing Luan not to let the servants disturb Deng.

The next day, as the sun began to rise.

The splendid sunlight fell on Deng’s face, casting deep shadows that made his facial features appear more profound.

He gazed at the sky, gazing for an entire day.

Like a stone stele, silently watching over time.

His face was aged, wrinkled, but his deep eyes sparkled with a star-like luster, resplendent and unwavering.

At sunrise, a blush of red tinged the distant sky, and Deng suddenly came to his senses.

A slight smile appeared on his face.

It was as if he had understood something, figured something out, as if he had come to terms with it.

His heart was filled with peace and satisfaction.

A slight fluctuation stirred in the aura around him.

In the sky above, a subtle phenomenon began to emerge, the glimmer of gold making its first appearance.

Deng looked up and, with mild interest, waved his hand dismissively.

The phenomenon that was about to manifest in the sky was completely extinguished.

It didn’t cause any particularly large commotion.

However, throughout the entire Capital city, and even within the whole Great Zhou Dynasty, the Heavenly and Earthly Qi trembled imperceptibly.

Barely visible.

Within the Great Zhou Imperial Palace.

An imposing gaze turned towards Deng.

Deng seemed to sense something and, with a smile, nodded towards the direction of the Imperial Palace.

The imposing gaze examined Deng for a few moments, seemingly surprised.

Silence.

“Which realm of the Heavenly Human Realm have you reached?”

An authoritative, low voice sounded in Deng’s ear.

A smile spread across Deng’s aged face as he replied, “The Second Realm.”

“Hmm.”

After responding and observing Deng for a while longer, the imposing gaze slowly withdrew.

As the gaze retreated, it trembled slightly, betraying the calm exterior.

Meanwhile, at the same time, in various parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty, at the various Martial World sects and hidden families, exclamations of surprise from old men could be occasionally heard.

“This, this aura…”

“A Sky-Man has made a move…”

“It seems like it’s that person from the Tianji Sect…”

“He’s become even stronger?”

“After so many years, has another Sky-Man finally stepped into the Second Realm? I didn’t expect it to be that person from the Tianji Sect breaking through first.”

From hidden corners came astonished voices, countless gazes were all directed towards the Capital city, towards the place where Deng made his move.

And at Duke Zhen’s Mansion, within the Million Specie Garden, where countless powerful figures were watching.

Everything was calm and tranquil.

The servant cleaning the Million Specie Garden would never imagine that a Sky-Man had just broken through a minor realm right under their nose.

Although it was a minor realm, reaching a new realm in the Heavenly Human Realm is equivalent to a major cycle of reincarnation, not easily broken through.

Some people, after breaking through to the Heavenly Human Realm, remain trapped in the First Realm for countless years, never touching the threshold of the Second Realm in their lifetime.

Even among today’s emperors of the four major dynasties, though all are of the Heavenly Human Realm, most are only at the level of the First Realm.

With Deng’s breakthrough to the Second Realm of the Heavenly Human, he now stood at the peak of the Mortal World.

In the entire Four Directions Mortal World, those who possess the cultivation of the Second Realm of the Heavenly Human could be counted on one hand.

One can imagine how shocking this was.

Yet at the scene of the event.

It was still so calm and tranquil.

The vast majority of people didn’t notice and didn’t know that the world had gained another Sky-Man of the Second Realm.

Only those whose cultivations had reached the Heavenly Human Realm and were closely connected with the Heavenly and Earthly senses could detect it to some extent.

“Old Deng, have you finished looking?”

Cheng Guang awoke from his sleep, yawned, and stepping out of his room, saw that Deng was no longer looking at the sky but smiling contently as if enraptured by something.

Hearing Cheng Guang’s voice, Deng came back to reality and nodded slightly.

Looking at Cheng, he felt a bit embarrassed.

Truth be told, his breakthrough to the Second Realm of the Heavenly Human was entirely due to Cheng’s guidance.

If it weren’t for Cheng’s profound insights that had entirely shattered his own cognitive framework, it’s unknown how many years it would have taken him to break through to the Second Realm of the Heavenly Human.

One sentence from Cheng saved him a hundred years of effort.

Deng’s face showed regret.

He had originally planned to take advantage of Old Cheng of Duke’s Mansion by agreeing to come to Duke Zhen’s Mansion to teach his grandson the Heavenly Gang Star Fight.

But…

How had it turned out that after coming over, he was the one who ended up being taught?

It’s difficult to repay such a debt of gratitude.

It had been centuries since a Sky-Man of the Second Realm appeared in the world, and now that he had made a breakthrough because of Cheng, he didn’t know if he’d ever have the chance to repay this favor in his lifetime.

As an old man, Deng felt like crying at the thought of owing such a huge favor at his age.

Looking at Cheng, his lips moved several times, but he found himself unable to speak.

He just nodded.

Deng’s expression was solemn as he said earnestly, “Hmm, Cheng, to tell you the truth, Old Man Deng has improved a little in cultivation thanks to your advice. Although it’s also because of my own exceptional insight, after all, I was Great Zhou’s number one genius back in the day. But your advice did play a role too.”

“So here’s what we’ll do, Cheng. I’ll agree to any one request you have. Whatever princess or devil beauty you want, just let me know, and I’ll do my best to bring her back for you.”

“Even if you want Empress Wei of Great Wei to warm your bed, it’s not out of the question.”
