He Is the Exception

Why aren't you saying anything?

Seeing that Tai Jiuling remained silent, Gu De turned around and asked again.

Tai Jiuling remained silent; he had no intention of paying any attention to the other party.

Although he didn't say it, Gu De still had a general idea.

After all, the other person was running so excitedly just now, but now that they've come over, why don't they get a little closer, or take it and examine it carefully like I did?

This already speaks volumes.

It's not that he doesn't want to take off his outer armor, it's that he simply doesn't dare to.

The conclusion is probably quite clear: the other side doesn't actually possess any so-called Power That Cannot Be Controlled.

Looking at myself, I didn't feel any danger even though I was holding it in my hand; on the contrary, I felt a vague sense of familiarity.

Some things can truly empower a cultivator with the power of the external world.

That truly makes the trip worthwhile.

Since I've never met anyone from this Tai Clan before, and I don't speak, I probably wouldn't be able to tell anything just by looking.

With this thought in mind, Gu De's attention returned to the object in his hand, preparing to directly attempt to comprehend it.

Right now, under Tai Jiuling's watchful gaze, Gu De plopped down into the pile of Power That Cannot Be Controlled sources, closed his eyes, and began cultivating on the spot.

Tai Jiuling's expression turned even uglier.

I can only observe from afar, while the other party is there, indulging in debauchery.

I know there's no such thing as fairness in this world, but this is just too much...

At this moment, Tai Jiuling suddenly remembered something, turned his head, and looked at the books next to the pile of Power That Cannot Be Controlled sources.

The book clearly appeared to be a relatively new one.

It wasn't thin; it was just lying there on the ground, with nothing written on it.

Tai Jiuling walked over, instinctively wanting to use his spiritual power to sweep it away.

Suddenly, he realized that his spiritual energy dissipated instantly upon passing through the armor.

He shook his head helplessly.

Being in this place makes one feel even more ordinary than an ordinary person.

At this point, the only way to examine its contents is through mental exploration.

Soon, a look of shock appeared on his face.

"Was there ever a powerful force in this place?"

"The Immortal-Slaying Clan, the Immortal-Slaying Power —so this is the true name of this Power That Cannot Be Controlled?"

Looking at the information presented, Tai Jiuling felt a strong sense of disbelief.

However, a sense of despair quickly followed.

Because this book clearly states in black and white that the ability to master Power That Cannot Be Controlled is innate.

Some people are born into the Immortal-Slaying Clan. Although they cannot cultivate spiritual power, they can access and control Power That Cannot Be Controlled.

It's innate!

Tai Jiuling's attention was entirely focused on these three words.

He knew very well how desperate this was.

I am probably one of those people who were born with an inability to master this so-called Immortal-Slaying Power.

Even with the aid of armor, one can only take a look around.

Not to mention using it, it's impossible to even take it.

And those so-called Immortal-Slaying Clan are probably just like the other party, completely ignoring the influence of these things.

Etc.

Tai Jiuling suddenly realized something, looked up at Gu De, and couldn't help but speak up.

"And what about him? What makes him qualified?"

The other party is not someone who cannot cultivate spiritual power; in fact, his cultivation level is not low.

If it were truly innate, then the other person shouldn't be able to cultivate spiritual power.

This doesn't make sense.

However, no sooner had the words left his mouth than that familiar voice rang out once again.

He is the exception.

"Exception?"

Tai Jiuling smiled, a smile that seemed tinged with helplessness.

Pulling himself back to reality, he continued reading the contents of the book.

The following content provides a brief overview of the conflicts and past relationships between the Immortal-Slaying Clan and cultivators.

Although the text was short, Tai Jiuling quickly realized that the existence of such a thing was probably a great threat to cultivators.

He could also understand why cultivators were so determined to eliminate these Immortal-Slaying Clan.

A force that cannot be controlled is best left undone.

He understands this principle.

After all, that's his current mindset.

Seeing that Gu De now wished he could take a bath in it, this was even more unacceptable than losing his cultivation.

However, soon, a strange look appeared on Tai Jiuling's face.

His gaze was fixed on the source of that small, Power That Cannot Be Controlled, then he looked around in all directions.

He said softly.

"This place is so big, there can't possibly be only these things."

"Since the Immortal-Slaying Clan was able to grow so powerful back then, it's impossible that such power could only exist in one place in the world."

"In that case, if the Immortal-Slaying Clan gains power, the ones who should be most worried are the cultivators."

At that moment, an incredibly bold idea rapidly took shape in his mind.

I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me.

Now an opportunity is right in front of us.

The contents recorded in this book are probably known very little to outsiders, their Tai Clan, or even their ancestor from back then.

Or rather, even if they knew, they would probably have to keep it a secret.

After all, although the Immortal-Slaying Clan cannot cultivate spiritual power, they are not without the desire to become stronger.

Moreover, the Immortal-Slaying Clan does not originate from any particular place or power; rather, they are born with the potential to become it.

You must understand that in this world, those who cannot cultivate spiritual power cannot be considered to have any status.

If these people, who are born incapable of cultivation, were given power—and such power that it poses a threat to cultivators—what would they do?

Tai Jiuling knew very well that even without the past recorded in this book, something similar would probably have happened anyway.

Who would be the most troubled at that time?

The stronger it is, the greater the loss will be.

The Huaxia Sect must be the most overwhelmed.

Although he was also a cultivator, he could now rely on this armor.

If the grand spectacle described in the book were to reappear, once the dust settles, with my current strength, I might very well become the leader of a powerful force.

As he pondered this, Tai Jiuling let out a long sigh.

His eyes gleamed, revealing a hint of madness.

This information must be leaked.

She came here entirely against her will; she was forced into it by the Huaxia Sect through torture and threats of death.

Now, seemingly trapped in a dead end, he has instead found something that can threaten the Huaxia Sect.

If that's the case, there must be a reason why it's not used.

"The Huaxia Sect, didn't you want the world to know about this method of wielding Power That Cannot Be Controlled?"

Your wish will soon come true.

"I'll see if you can still be happy then."
