Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 Path of Knowledge

'Yet they still didn't address cultivators as immortals, such as "Respected Immortal" or "Esteemed Immortal." This is very interesting and suspicious. Maybe in this world the word "Immortal" carries some very heavy meaning that cannot be taken lightly or spoken casually,' He shook his head, deciding not to think about it anymore.

Anyway, when he went to the library of the royal family, which contained countless books on knowledge, history, secrets, and information, maybe he would be able to find some information regarding that.

Thinking so, he took a deep breath as he calmed his tense shoulders and cleared his rapidly racing mind while looking at the view outside the window.

Looking at the bustling city, with countless people walking through the streets, the entire city was filled with ancient Chinese style architecture, pavilions, pagodas, and many small floating islands in the sky.

Making the whole city feel even more lively and vibrant.

On one side of the city, a vast sea could be seen, while the other side was surrounded by towering mountains from which countless waterfalls flowed. Those waters entered the city, forming rivers and lakes that stretched throughout the entire capital.

But this was not the most attractive or important thing about this city.

The reason this city was so famous and important, filled with people from all over the world, was because this was the heart of the Cardinal Royal Family.

The Imperial City, The main capital territory of the Cardinal Royal Family.

Other than that, Xiao's residence was currently located on a very large floating island whose entrance was strictly forbidden to most people because it was a restricted area, also known as Fallen Cloud Island.

The island was enormous, filled with mountains, waterfalls, forests, and vast green fields. Other than that, not only was his residence located there, but the residences of his two sisters and his aunt were also situated on the same island.

As for the main family residence, it was located within the huge mountains behind the Royal Court, which stood at the very center of the Imperial City.

But that was not the most important thing right now.

Xiao silently looked at the Imperial City through his window. The pale moonlight from the huge silver moon illuminated the entire city, making it look breathtaking and filling it with an otherworldly beauty.

Paper lanterns floated through the sky while countless hawkers shouted as they sold their goods. The delicious fragrance of food lingered in the air.

Xiao smiled as he looked at a mother and child walking down the streets. The mother gently held her child's hand while the little girl happily ate dumplings and watched the small paper lanterns shaped like little boats drifting across the lake beside the street.

Even though he was on a floating island and observing all of those things from his window, he could still see everything very clearly.

Looking at all of those mundane yet beautiful scenes helped him calm his shaken yet excited heart and his storming mind, filling his entire body with a serene and peaceful feeling.

After that, he thought with his newly cleared mind, 'It all comes back to the same thing... information. I need information. Just like before, when I didn't have any memories of this world, I lacked information. This time is the same. I am still lacking information,'

He felt that if he were to enter the library, many pieces of the puzzle and many things that had confused him before might finally be resolved. Many of the answers to his questions, such as the meaning of "Immortal," might be found there.

'Though I cannot expect to find everything, as that is unrealistic. But I should still be able to find something. At least that is much better than nothing,' He thought, making up his mind as he decided to visit the library.

'Anyway, my Awakening Ceremony will be held in a few days. I should prepare for it. And with how talented the Xiao of this world was, maybe I should be able to awaken an Innate Talent as well,' Xiao was rather hopeful because only the most talented individuals could awaken an Innate Talent during the Awakening Ceremony.

Those Innate Talents were truly Heaven defying, unique abilities born according to an individual's personality, willpower, interests, and innate nature.

At the same time, an Innate Talent would also correspond to the Dao and Law that best suited that individual.

Although, in rare cases, a person's Innate Talent could be completely unrelated to their Dao. However, such situations were extremely uncommon.

'I also wonder what kind of Dao I will cultivate in the future? Will it be one of those cool Daos like the Fate Dao? Or the Heaven Dao, Sword Dao, or Void Dao? Maybe even the Creation Dao, Destruction Dao, or Perfection Dao... or perhaps even the legendary Nothingness Dao or Chaos Dao?' Xiao thought with a smile.

Being a huge fan of xianxia cultivation novels, he was very familiar with those Daos and more or less understood their strengths and weaknesses.

While those things might differ from the reality of this world, from the memories of this world's Xiao, the abilities and applications of those Daos were more or less the same.

'Dammit... I can't wait to test out all those techniques and mantras that I have seen in those novels,' Xiao's hands were really itching to try those things out.He let out a devilish and confident smile, 'I am sure my enemies will be surprised and terrified when they see me throwing all sorts of weird and bizarre techniques at them. Hehe.'

Xiao thought as he smiled evilly like a complete creep, almost drooling, 'Damn, if I can't crush those at the same realm as mine as a certified transmigrator and remain invincible within the same realm, then I should just transmigrate back and stop calling myself an Earthling.'

Then he shook his head, 'No worries! I will try to recreate and replicate those techniques in the future. But if I really succeed in using those techniques in real life... damn, now I genuinely feel bad for my future enemies. May your souls rest in peace.'
