Astrology Card Creator: Start with Pleiades

Jiang Zhao was secretly shocked. "Could it be that you had anticipated everything that would happen later, and anticipated our arrival today?"

Master Tongtian shook his head and smiled.

"Then you...?" Jiang Zhao looked strange, "Or is he still here and has come to see you beforehand?"

“I guess so,” Master Tongtian smiled meaningfully, “Master did come here, but he didn’t mention much. The reason why I can guess your purpose is mainly because you are different from last time.”

Hearing this, Jiang Zhao's heart skipped a beat.

It was obvious that Master Tongtian saw the changes in him after he awakened in the depths of the Origin Void.

"The reason for the Origin of the Void?" Jiang Zhao tried his best to remain calm.

"That's right." Master Tongtian nodded happily, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

Of course, this conversation between the two was for everyone to hear. Jiang Lingtong and the other two did not know about the existence of the deep layer of the Origin Void, so they subconsciously thought that some changes had occurred after Jiang Zhao absorbed the soul components.

Jiang Zhao took a deep breath and asked seriously, "In other words, Yuanchu Void is related to Ancestor Hongjun?"

"There is indeed a connection, but it may not be what you think," Tongtian Patriarch said calmly, "In the past, Master came to me once and borrowed the method of my clan's inheritance to appear in the world once. You should have guessed this."

"Is it really the grand master?" Taoist Duobao was surprised and suspicious.

"To solve the troubles in my New Blue World?" Jiang Zhao asked.

"That's right," Tongtian Patriarch nodded. "As for the specific reason, Master didn't say much, so I don't know much either. As for where Master went afterwards, I don't know either."

Jiang Zhao nodded in thought, and suddenly asked, "You also know the existence of the Origin Void, right?"

Master Tongtian smiled without comment, but there was a hint of deep meaning in his smile.

"Have you been there?" Jiang Zhao further confirmed.

“I have been there,” Master Tongtian nodded meaningfully, “In fact, not only me, but all the first generation of Heavenly Emperors who created the Hidden World Divine Realm have been there.

In other words, only the first generation of Heavenly Emperors who had reached that place were qualified to create a hidden divine domain and leave behind this spark of civilization."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

"Did our ancestors also go to the Origin of the Void?" Taoist Duobao was surprised and suspicious.

Jiang Lingtong and Qi Tianxuan were also shocked.

But only Jiang Zhao understood the profound meaning behind Master Tongtian's words.

Note that Tongtian Jiaozhu used the words "reach" and "arrive" instead of "been there".

In other words, Master Tongtian and the first generation of Heavenly Emperors of the Hidden God Clan did not go to the Origin Void, but arrived at and touched the deep level of the Origin Void through cultivation.

This also confirmed what he and Ruan Yunyun had guessed before.

In addition to the ancestors of the Immortal Craftsmen clan, there were many people who later awakened in the Origin Void.

No wonder when he first met Master Tongtian, Master Tongtian looked at him strangely.

No wonder the ancestor of the immortal clan instructed the Immortal King of Hundred Battles to treat him with courtesy and handed over the treasured inheritance materials of the immortal clan to Jiang Zhao for processing.

Looking back on it now, I suddenly feel a sense of enlightenment.

Those who had awakened in the Origin Void had all seen Jiang Zhao...

Although Jiang Zhao's image in the Origin Void was that of his previous life, just as Ruan Yunyun could recognize him at a glance, people who had awakened in the depths of the Origin Void could naturally recognize him.

Or is there a special aura on him, a strange aura projected from his previous life's physical body?

"That's not right. Doesn't it say that when one becomes the first Heavenly Emperor, one can choose to create a hidden divine realm or ascend to the divine realm?" Jiang Zhao suddenly thought of the popular science that the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gods had taught him before.

"Indeed, it is possible." Master Tongtian nodded.

"Isn't this a contradiction?" Jiang Zhao was confused.

“Is it contradictory?” Master Tongtian chuckled and explained, “Creating a hidden divine realm and leaving behind a spark of civilization are two different things. Some of the first generation of Heavenly Emperors with extraordinary talent can indeed create a hidden divine realm before touching the original void.

But there is still a long way to go if we want to turn the hidden gods into a spark of civilization.

If I'm not mistaken, you heard these words from the new emperor of the time, right?"

Jiang Zhao nodded blankly.

“No wonder,” Master Tongtian smiled dumbly, “The younger generation of Heavenly Emperor in this world is indeed gifted by nature, and there is a great hope that he will touch the Origin Void one day.”

“You mean, a normal first-generation Heavenly Emperor may not be able to create a hidden divine realm? It’s just that the situation of the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gods is rather special.” Jiang Zhao said in shock.

“That’s right,” Tongtian Patriarch nodded and asked with a smile, “Aren’t you surprised why the number of Gods in the Divine Realm is much greater than that of the Hidden Gods?”

Jiang Zhao was slightly startled, "It seems to be true."

The number of hidden gods in the world is not even close to that of gods in the divine realm.

The statistics are not nice. The number of hidden gods is not even a fraction of the number of gods in the divine realm.

In this case, every first-generation Heavenly Emperor can freely choose between two routes.

Even if the development concept of the hidden gods is niche, there shouldn't be such a big gap.

Now, combined with what Master Tongtian said, my thoughts suddenly become clear.

It’s not that the first generations of Heavenly Emperors did not want to create a hidden race of gods, but that most of them had no choice.

"Do you know the difference between these two first-generation Heavenly Emperors?" Tongtian Jiaozhu asked with a smile.

"One is to achieve star soul, the other is to achieve oneself." Jiang Zhao nodded and replied.

“The key is here,” Tongtian Patriarch calmly explained, “Achieving a Star Soul is not an easy thing, or rather, the threshold for achieving a Star Soul is much higher. From a certain perspective, achieving a Star Soul is actually using oneself as an egg to hatch and revive the existence corresponding to the Star Soul.

This is also the fundamental reason why it is difficult for the descendants of my hidden divine clan to become the Emperor of Heaven.

Take my disciple for example. It’s not because he cannot become the Heavenly Emperor, but because he is still a long way from becoming the Heavenly Emperor.

Of course, after returning from the Origin Void this time, the distance has shortened a lot."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhao and others were shocked.

It turned out that they had always believed that the hidden gods were unable to become Heavenly Emperors because of their bloodline and inheritance methods.

Now I understand after listening to Master Tongtian's explanation.

It’s not that the hidden gods cannot become the Emperor of Heaven, but because the path to becoming an emperor by “becoming a star soul” is a bit long and the threshold is extremely high.

Take Taoist Duobao for example, his strength is no less than that of an ordinary emperor in the realm of gods.

But according to Master Tongtian, Taoist Duobao is still a long way from becoming the Heavenly Emperor. This also shows how difficult it is to become a Star Soul, the path to becoming an emperor.

"Does this mean that the threshold to becoming a divine emperor is much lower?" Jiang Zhao asked.

“That’s right,” Master Tongtian nodded and smiled, “Take my disciple for example. If he followed the standard of a Divine Realm Heavenly Emperor, he would have already become a Heavenly Emperor. Of course, although the threshold for becoming a Divine Realm Heavenly Emperor is low, there is still a long way to go in the future. This is also the main reason why the strength of Divine Realm Heavenly Emperors varies so much.”
