Tang Tian never expected that after coming out of that strange world, he would directly encounter the Immortal Emperor of the Star River.

He wondered if there were any other disciples who had encountered this situation before.

But at this moment, he had no way of knowing.

The young-looking Star River Immortal Emperor seemed to have lost some of his composure and dignity, but gained a bit of unruliness and flamboyance.

After hearing Tang Tian's words, the Star River Immortal Emperor raised an eyebrow and said, "Immortal Emperor?"

"Am I an Immortal Emperor now?"

Tang Tian was immediately stunned.

This young-looking Star River Immortal Emperor didn't even know that he was an Immortal Emperor?

Seemingly sensing Tang Tian's confusion, the young Star River smiled and said, "What you see now is just a remnant soul I left behind here decades ago."

"This place is completely isolated from the outside world."

"So, I don't know how far I have cultivated myself now."

Tang Tian suddenly realized that this was the case.

But why did the Star River Immortal Emperor leave behind a remnant soul here?

"You are now the Lord of Tianfu."

Tang Tian said, "According to my understanding, you ascended to the position of Immortal Emperor decades ago."

"Later, you became the youngest Lord in the history of Tianfu."

"Your legend is spread throughout Tianfu."

He told the young Star River everything he knew.

Under normal circumstances, one would be satisfied upon hearing of such achievements.

However, the young Star River sighed deeply.

"So, I still failed."

"That guy is just too powerful..."

He shook his head and sighed, seemingly very dissatisfied with his current achievements.

Then, he waved at Tang Tian.

"Come, have a seat."

"Let's chat."

"I have been here for several decades, and you are the first disciple to come here."

The young Star River said.

Following his words, Tang Tian sat in front of the stone table in front of the thatched cottage.

"You look quite young."

"But your cultivation..."

The young Star River looked at Tang Tian and furrowed his brows slightly, "Are the top disciples of Gouchen Academy at a similar level as you?"

Tang Tian quickly said, "Not exactly."

"The top geniuses of Gouchen Academy are all above the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal, each possessing extraordinary strength."

"I only became a disciple of Gouchen Academy this year because of some special circumstances, and I was fortunate enough to obtain a Purple Gold Star Token."

The young Star River suddenly realized, "I see."

Then he smiled and said, "That's why. How come the strength of Gouchen Academy's disciples has regressed so much after all these years?"

"But you must have exceptional abilities to obtain the Purple Gold Token."

"I know about Tongsheng Mountain, they wouldn't act recklessly."

Tang Tian did not deny it.

From any perspective, he indeed had exceptional abilities.

That was a fact.

"Times have really changed."

The young Star River sighed again and said, "Talented individuals emerge in every generation, leading the way for hundreds of years."

"My era has long become the dust of history."

"Now, it's your era."

Looking at the seemingly pessimistic young Star River Immortal Emperor, Tang Tian spoke up, "It's not like that."

"People like you will never be forgotten by the era."

"Even until this year, your name is still respected, and your deeds are not forgotten by anyone."

He wasn't just making things up.

The Star River Immortal Emperor can be said to be the most famous figure in Yunding Tianfu, without a doubt.

His path to becoming an Immortal Emperor step by step was regarded as a cultivation classic and was widely praised.

Many major forces use him as a benchmark to admonish their young disciples.

However, the young Star River laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "What deeds are there to be spread?"

"My deeds as the second oldest Immortal Emperor?"

"If that person didn't exist, perhaps I could have shone brightly for a while."

"But above my head, he always weighed me down."

Tang Tian fell silent.

Regarding the matter of Star River Immortal Emperor, perhaps ordinary disciples don't understand much, but the higher-ups are aware of some things.

During that era, there was indeed a person who radiated too brightly.

"Are you talking about... Lu Ming?"

Tang Tian couldn't help but ask.

The young Star River smiled and said, "If not him, then who else?"

"Since the trip to the Moon Grotto-Heaven, he has soared to new heights, and all the geniuses have become stumbling blocks on his path to success."

"If I am still just an Immortal Emperor now, it means that my final efforts and arrangements have also failed."

"Leaving behind a trace of soul here, enduring so many years of pain in vain, and damaging the essence of my soul, it's not worth it."

"He should have long since reached the pinnacle of the heavens, right?"

Tang Tian's heart skipped a beat.

Star River Immortal Emperor left behind a remnant soul here, all for the purpose of dealing with Lu Ming?

From what he said, it seems that he failed.

But Lu Ming's outcome doesn't seem to be what he expected either.

"As far as I know..."

"Lu Ming did not successfully reach the pinnacle of the heavens."

Tang Tian slowly said, "It seems that something happened to him, not only did he fail, but he also disappeared in the Heavenly Palace."

"For these years, many people have not known of his existence."

"So, when I mentioned your name earlier, it wasn't made up."

The young Star River was suddenly stunned.

"Something happened?"

He furrowed his brow, seemingly pondering something.

"Could it be related to that woman?"

"From what I know of him, there is nothing in this world that can affect his will."

"The only possible variable might be that woman..."

"He cared too much about her, to the point of offending many elders just to bring her into the Moon Grotto-Heaven..."

The young Star River mused to himself.

After a moment, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's not think about it."

"Truly, everything is impermanent."

"Who could have imagined that both he and I, after fighting for so long, would end up like this."

"It seems... quite boring."

After hearing about Lu Ming's outcome, the young Star River seemed to have let go of a heavy burden. Even his previous unruliness and flamboyance gradually disappeared.

"Let's talk about business."

Saying that, the young Star River opened his palm.

A crystal stone shimmering with a faint light appeared in his palm.

"Back then, I stumbled upon this place and made a deal with a magnificent and boundless will."

"It bestowed upon me a stellar power, and I left behind this remnant soul."

"The remnant soul is immortal, but it must endure the backlash brought by the power of the stars every day."

"And the boundless pain caused by the backlash will be returned twofold to the original body, unavoidable."

"Until... someone can come here."

After speaking, the young Star River placed the crystal stone in front of Tang Tian.

"You have finally come."

"I can finally be liberated, and the original body no longer needs to bear that pain."

"Actually, I didn't want him to be liberated so soon. But he left me in this godforsaken place, haha."

The young Star River laughed with great relief.

Tang Tian, on the other hand, silently looked at the crystal stone in front of him.

Such a grand spectacle, all just to wait for one person?

And that person is actually himself?

"What is it?"

Tang Tian asked.

The young Star River said, "That will didn't let me see it."

"But in the end, I still secretly took a look."

"It."

"It's a map of the starry sky."
