Cao Zhen was suddenly dumbfounded. What did that mean?
Hadn't the Grand Preceptor told him before that he could repeatedly self-mutilate, self-mutilate down to the Golden Core Stage mark?
Moreover, just now the Grand Preceptor even said that after his enlightenment, he was even more confident, so why was the emperor now asking if he was going to go into a deep sleep?
What was going on here?
The Grand Preceptor fell suddenly silent, and after a long while, he sighed softly, helplessly saying, "This time, I'm afraid I really have to go into a deep sleep.
Before, I could evade the Heavenly Dao's scrutiny by self-mutilating once.
But the recent resonance between heaven and earth has drawn the attention of the Heavenly Dao. Although I can still self-mutilate once, and hold on for a few more years, if I were to do it again, one slice, two slices, that would be manageable, but any more than that, and I would be targeted by the Heavenly Dao.
