Having been in the Land of Immortals for nearly two years, Tang Rao revealed the secrets buried deep in his heart for the first time to the universe.
He cried for the first time, surrendering to the universe with the posture of a weakling.
"There, there."
A small fire spirit jumped onto Tang Rao's lap, comforting him with a childish voice.
"You're better than Immortal Emperor Gengyu."
Tang Rao couldn't tell if there was more comfort or encouragement in the fire spirit's words.
"Immortal Emperor took fifty thousand years to gain acknowledgment, and it only took you over thirty."
The little fire spirit appeared with Gengyu, witnessing all of Gengyu's experiences. It wasn't until it received legacy and its consciousness began to clear that it comprehended Gengyu's journey.
"Are you saying Immortal Emperor Gengyu was also acknowledged by the ten-thousand-year iris? Isn't it said that acknowledgment permits one to ascend to another level?"
