He wondered how long it would be before he could come back after this departure. Tang Wulin thought about Gu Yuena absentmindedly once again. Would he come to Skysea City again? She would not find him in Skysea City anyway.
He was in deep sea at present. He wondered if she could sense his presence through the silver dragon scale pendant?
Tang Wulin caressed the silver dragon scale hanging around his neck subconsciously as he felt a warmth in his heart.
‘Wait for my return. I’m going to come back with father and mother. By then, we should be able to solve the mystery, right? You should be able to tell me what actually happened between you and Na’er as well.’
‘We should have a complete family when I take Father and Mother home. Be my wife and our family shall stay together. What could be happier than that?’
At this point, Tang Wulin’s heart was filled with motivation. He gradually entered a meditative state.
“Wulin, Wulin, Wulin.” Tang Wulin had lost count of the times he heard a soft call in the depths of his mind. It awakened him from his immersive meditation.
He opened his eyes but he realized that he had not come out from his familiar meditative state. To his astonishment, Tang Wulin discovered that he had entered the golden world once again.
For some reason, during Old Tang’s previous awakening, he sank into a deep sleep very soon after sensing the existence of the Boundless Universe crystal in him. Since then, he would frequently sense a kind of call coming from a faraway place during his meditation. The call did not sound as clear, and he had never been to this golden world that belonged to Old Tang anymore either.
He was greatly surprised when he was brought to this place once again. Could it be that Old Tang had awakened again?
However, Old Tang did not appear this time. There was only the voice whose calls echoed from all directions continuously. The voice seemed to belong to Old Tang, but it sounded slightly different from previously.
“Old Tang, is that you? Where are you?” Tang Wulin looked all around as he called out Old Tang’s name.
Old Tang did not emerge as he had done before, but at this point, Tang Wulin could see something familiar. That Boundless Universe crystal of his had enlarged by many times and appeared in front of him. The golden radiance had dimmed slightly, but the Boundless Universe crystal turned even clearer and brighter.
It was just floating there. It seemed to be of the same height as Tang Wulin. A stream of golden radiance shot out from the apex of the crystal toward the sky in an endless stream. The surface of the Boundless Universe crystal was emitting faint halos.
“What’s this?” Tang Wulin stretched out his hand absentmindedly and caressed the Boundless Universe crystal.
In an instant, he felt as if the sky and earth were spinning around. Everything in his surroundings suddenly turned bizzare and gaudy. It felt as if another gigantic passage had appeared with an incomparably powerful suction force coming from inside it. It pulled at his body toward the distance.
The feeling of dizziness made Tang Wulin grow nauseous. He had never felt this feeling in the past before due to his physical capabilities!

He wished to struggle free from this feeling, but he did not have an ounce of strength left in him.
“Wulin, Wulin, my child…” The voice sounded clearer and clearer now. Shockingly, Tang Wulin discovered that there was more than just one voice now. Other than the original voice that sounded like Old Tang, there seemed to be another female voice.
“Who are you?” Tang Wulin wished to scream out, but he could not make a sound at all. In that bizzare and garish world, he thought that he could vaguely as if see a misty landy with wispy, white clouds. In that land, there were mountains and rivers similarly filled with tangible life source. It was a life force purer than the Life Seed. He then saw another enormous palace where a man and a woman stood in front of the palace. The man had a head full of long blue hair that draped over his back.
The voices calling out came from them, but Tang Wulin could not see their faces clearly. He could just barely see the man’s eyes. It was a pair of incomparably clear eyes that felt like they could cast light upon everything. In the depth of his eyes, Tang Wulin saw himself.
A burst of terrible, stabbing pain radiated from his brain all of a sudden. Everything in the surroundings shattered and vanished in succession soon after.
“Argh!” He screamed out in agony. Tang Wulin discovered that he had already returned to the golden world and could see his surroundings clearly once again. This time, Old Tang was right by his side.
Tang Wulin panted loudly and heavily. The intense feeling of weakness made him feel like he was about to have a spiritual breakdown soon.
Old Tang raised his hand and pressed it onto his head. Faint, golden rings circulated around his head. He felt cool, refreshing waves and was much more at ease soon after.
“What happened? Old Tang, what was that? What happened?” Tang Wulin panted as he asked Old Tang standing by his side.
Old Tang looked at him with a smile. “That’s a call from the distance. I’ve finally completed the connection with them. Even though I don’t understand why am I doing so and I’m even less sure of where I’m connecting to, I can tell you that this is going to be extremely crucial for you.”
Tang Wulin was thoroughly confused. “I don’t understand. What are you talking about?”
Old Tang replied, “In simpler terms, a need to connect with the distance appeared in my mind spontaneously after sensing that you’d fused with the Boundless Universe Shield. I used the Boundless Universe Shield as a medium to connect to the distance. I only knew that this was my mission, that it was important, and it remains as the most important task in the depths of my memories. Then, I began attempting to connect and finally completed the basic process. Afterward, I brought you here because I couldn’t complete the entire connection alone. Only your aura can do this.”
Tang Wulin stared at him in bewilderment. “I still don’t understand.”
Old Tang shrugged. “Me neither. You can only wait until you’ve truly completed the connection and you’re able to communicate with them, and then perhaps you may be able to understand. There’s no need for you to understand too much for now.”
Tang Wulin spoke with a bitter smile, “You’re making me more and more confused with your words. Is this very important to me?”
Old Tang nodded in all apparent seriousness. “You could say that it’s incomparably vital to you. As for why, I still don’t know at present. However, you must connect to that place in the distance. On the other hand, you need to become powerful enough in order to do so because the connection should be across planets. Moreover, it’s exceedingly remote. Even though the other side should be enduring most of the consumption, you’ll still need to be strong enough in order to connect to their signal. Basically, your physical ability and spiritual power will still need to be elevated by a large extent to do so.”
Tang Wulin spoke in bafflement, “So how far would I need to elevate my abilities in order to complete your so-called connection?”
It was Old Tang’s turn to smile bitterly this time. “I still don’t know about that yet. You can only complete the basic connection which you just witnessed earlier with your current cultivation base. It allows you and the other side to sense each other. From now on, every elevation to your abilities will make this connection clearer. I recommend that you give it another try when you’ve broken through to the twelfth layer of the Golden Dragon King’s Seal. Or you can do so when you’ve made qualitative leap such as when your spiritual domain has taken form. By then, perhaps you’ll find out why do you need such a connection and maybe even learn about who the other side is as well.”
Feeling slightly helpless, Tang Wulin shrugged. “Alright then. Since you said that it’s very important, I shall give it another try later. However, the feeling earlier was truly not that comfortable.” He may have said these words, but his eyes revealed that he was deep in thought. For whatever reason, he felt an unspeakable uneasiness as if something was stuck in his throat upon hearing the call earlier. It was beyond description, but it was definitely there.
