’It seems that she doesn’t know the principle about teleportation.’ Theo thought for a moment. ’Now that I think about it, isn’t the principle of the portal to another world basically the same? There should be a structure or a material somewhere that is used to connect the two worlds.
’When I see it this way, I can finally understand the connections between the worlds.’ Theo closed his eyes for a moment. Everything was connected to the Modern Realm. ’Each world has 11 gates connected to the Modern Realm, but this means that the Modern Realm has 99 gates. What if there is a 100th gate? Would it lead to the author’s realm? But the readers said that their world is similar to mine but without any power system. Is it possible?’
Theo had no answer to this question. ’There are a few possibilities. First, the gate is opened through my power. But I don’t know if this will affect the world or not. In fact, I believe there are stories where the character breaks the 4th wall and enters the creator’s world, right?
’But is there one where the concept has been completely created? The author should have established the theory in my original world. If that’s the case, there is a possibility that my own world will affect the author and readers’ world in a weird way.
’It’s like how the bootstrap paradox works. The information or an object sent back in time creates an infinite loop. But instead of time, it’s space.’
The more Theo thought about it, the more unknown variables appeared. ’So, the second possibility would be that the author creates another realm where he can be a character to meet me. It seems that I have to wait to get the answer.’
Theo let out a sigh. Since there was nothing in their path, he had a lot of time to think. But it seemed that the author had let him think too much as he began sending out things that could distract Theo’s thoughts.
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
A series of roars resounded across the land as Theo noticed several people being surrounded by beasts.
"That’s…" Qin Beihe gasped. "My fellow disciples from the Green Flower Ridge."
Theo glanced at her and simply said, "If you’re going to help them, you can get off the horse. Just to let you know that I am not going to stop."

"I…" Qin Beihe hesitated. On the one hand, if she left, it meant she chose to completely cut off the connection with Theo. If they met again, Theo could simply ignore her or even become her enemy. On the other hand, she couldn’t leave these disciples behind, especially when they were in trouble.
Qin Beihe gritted her teeth before making a decision. She cupped her hands and politely bowed to him. "It’s a pleasure to meet you. Unfortunately, I couldn’t leave my fellow disciples behind. But if you…"
Qin Beihe looked like she wanted to request Theo’s help, but Theo had done a lot, so it wouldn’t be right to keep asking.
Little did she know, it was just a test from Theo. With his current speed, there was no way Mia would arrive first. So, helping them wouldn’t really matter. However, Theo didn’t lie when he said he wouldn’t stop.
That was why Theo said, "You owe me for this."
"Eh?" Qin Beihe was stunned, but Theo had focused on the beasts.
Theo whispered while showing an illusion to the horse. He created a trail of light while asking, "Can you follow this path?"
*Ngieeh!* The horse acknowledged him.
"Alright. Let’s go!" Theo nodded as the horse sped up. He began to infuse his essence into his sword.
*Roar!* The beasts noticed Theo’s arrival and alarmed the others.
"Isn’t that… Senior Sister Beihe?!"
"Senior Sister!"
"We’re saved!"
The people were happy to find strong reinforcement, but the other person was actually going far faster than her. He was like a bullet, moving past the beasts.
The horse skillfully maneuvered around the beasts and ran past the cultivators without any trouble. Theo maintained his balance on top of the horse while swinging his blade a few times, activating the power of the spirit.
In just two seconds, Theo slipped past both the cultivators and the beasts. There didn’t seem to be anything happening to them, albeit it was because Theo was so fast that their bodies didn’t realize they were cut.
After another two seconds, more than fifteen beasts suddenly split into two as their flesh fell to the ground.
"What?!" Qin Beihe dropped her jaw to the ground. The other disciples were dumbfounded, as they didn’t even see this man making a move.
There were only a few beasts remaining, which they should be able to handle. Theo then slowed down as the other horse leaped around and regrouped with them. Both horses had witnessed Theo’s extraordinary prowess.
"They can handle the rest, right?"
Qin Beihe knew what Theo meant. This was the extent of his help, so she hurriedly shouted, "Kill the remaining beasts and head in my direction. We’ll regroup in the palace!"
"Y-yes!" The disciples instinctively answered, not knowing why Theo didn’t kill all the beasts when he had the ability to do so.
Qin Beihe became more and more curious about this man, whose prowess was already beyond the realm of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Why would he not know her identity? Why would he look clueless about this place? Why would he have this kind of power? She believed that Theo was a disciple of an extraordinary expert who was training on a mountain without any contact with the outside world.
This might be the first time he descended the mountain to gain experience.
"By the way, who is this Fist Emperor?" Theo asked.
"Eh?" Qin Beihe snapped back from her thoughts. "Do you know about the six great sects?"
"Well, somewhat." Theo nodded.
"Currently, each sect has an Emperor either their Supreme Elder or the Sect Leader. The Emperors are known to be the strongest powerhouses in this world. It’s said that when they make a move, they can cut down a mountain, destroy a city, or do other things that alter the landscape.
"The Fist Emperor was once one of the strongest powerhouses in his current era. It was said that he crushed a mountain with a single punch."
"Hmm…" Theo was quite impressed by this person. In his original world, he could alter the landscape with his ability. However, he had surpassed that stage and turned into a singularity in his world.
It seemed that the Fist Emperor was like him before reaching that stage.
"Did he do something bad in the past for his tomb to be raided like this?" Theo asked.
"No! He had done a lot of good things in the past. People respected him. However, the Fist Emperor didn’t have a sect in the past, so he must want to leave his legacy behind through this method."
Theo got a good grasp of this ruin. Well, if he didn’t have any influence himself, he might leave a legacy this way. But he had Mia as his successor, so he didn’t bother to think about it.
Theo wondered if this was a good time to learn about Dao.
After reconstructing his words, Theo asked, "I am currently on my journey to experience the strength of the world. And I have a certain mission… Do you know anything about Dao?"
"Dao?!" Qin Beihe gasped. It looked like the terminology was the same. She hurriedly regained composure and couldn’t help but ask, "Do you not know anything about Dao?"
"Nope." Theo’s nonchalant expression made it look like it wasn’t a big deal.
However, this confirmed Qin Beihe’s suspicion. Theo truly didn’t know anything.
"Dao is the way. It’s the absolute principle underlying the universe. In the cultivation of the Dao, one learns to harmonize with the natural order, to tap into the latent potential within, and to ascend beyond the mundane."
"How do you get a Dao?"
"Preaching a Dao is a complex path. However, all cultivators have to get their Dao and those who get their Dao will become extremely powerful people. You have to observe nature, aligning yourself with the natural order. You need to meditate, allowing the Dao to come to you. Your life experiences also matter a lot in shaping you, which will determine what kind of Dao you will get."
Theo felt a bit weird. On the one hand, this Dao was similar to his previous power Order. To attain Order, he had to set up a rule for himself on how he planned to live. If he broke this rule, he would lose his power. Your next read is at novelbuddy
And one of those rules was not being able to lie. That was why Theo once threatened the author by using that rule. After all, as the ruler of reality, his word had to be the truth as it would shape reality.
However, there was a problem. He continued living under that rule, but he didn’t sense any Dao whatsoever. Hence, it was either because the world didn’t want him or because the Dao of Reality didn’t exist.
If it was the former, he couldn’t do anything about it. But if it was the latter, he thought about getting a Dao that might be different from reality or illusion but still related to them.
It seemed that he had to get some more clues from the Fist Emperor himself.
In the meantime, since he didn’t know how long they needed to travel to find the palace, it was better to meditate. He might be able to get the Dao before reaching the palace.
However, there was one important thing he had to do. It was to take a look at the comments.
He replied inwardly, ’Seriously? What kind of advice do you have for me? How does the author not include it? I mean, the author shouldn’t remove the comment or not include the comments unless they are late or something. Then again, we currently have the Random Passing Comment feature.
’Do you say something that breaks the policy guidelines? Well, if you don’t really mind, can you comment on it again?’
Theo remained calm while remembering that this had occurred during the early chapters. So, he continued to the next comment and said, ’Well, this comment should be directed to Mia, right? I will show it to Mia later, but if I have to answer it without much thought. Then, I am my own imagination. I can be anything with my imagination after all. Hahaha.’
Now that he had replied to the comments, Theo’s mind began to wander, searching for his Dao.
