[Martial Arts: Eighth Level Martial Arts Grandmaster]
[Life Experience: Wife of the Martial Ancestor Su Mu, mother of the One-Slash Female Asura Su Xiaoyue...]
[At fifteen, met the young Martial Ancestor Su Mu at Linjiang Base Ninth Middle School in Shenjiang City...]
[At nineteen, became the wife of the Martial Ancestor Su Mu, and withdrew a sum of money from her family for Su Mu’s tuition...]
[At thirty-five, with the help of the Martial Ancestor Su Mu, set foot on the Path of the Grandmaster, achieving Martial Arts Grandmaster...]
[At forty, Qi and Blood condensed into a dragon, Martial Arts Golden Body Third Forging achieved Great Grandmaster...]
...
[Thereafter traveled with the Martial Ancestor, ultimately died at the Sword Pavilion, at the age of forty-six...]
[Jiang Miaomiao accompanied the Martial Ancestor Su Mu in rising from obscurity, never leaving, loving each other for a lifetime, having one son and one daughter for the Martial Ancestor Su Mu...]

[************:*******]
Scanning briefly, Su Mu’s gaze fell on the line about the death, staring intently at the words Sword Pavilion, his tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed a bit.
It seemed that things were not as bad as he imagined, and Miaomiao’s death was also inseparable from the Sword Pavilion.
So all the disaster originated from the Sword Pavilion.
What exactly existed within the Sword Pavilion?
And why did his thirteen-year-later self choose to go to the Sword Pavilion?
"Perhaps not going to the Sword Pavilion could avoid all this..."
Su Mu thought to himself, and with this thought, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, his mouth slightly bending upward.
"One-Slash Female Asura Su Xiaoyue..."
"It seems Xiaoyue made quite a name for herself in the future, at least she’s not just the daughter of the Martial Ancestor."
Su Mu felt somewhat gratified, his daughter would accomplish much in martial arts in the future, not just being his daughter. Miaomiao also set foot on the Path of the Grandmaster, achieving Grandmaster, and after becoming a Great Grandmaster, a martial artist’s lifespan could significantly increase.
Seeing people around him like this, Su Mu naturally felt happy, even more than when he improved his own Martial Arts Realm.
Since ancient times, sages and scholars have been lonely, but if possible, Su Mu naturally wished that at least his family and friends could accompany him all the way.
At the same time, he also noticed a detail, that Miaomiao became a Grandmaster at thirty-five, which happens to correspond to when he, Su Mu, controlled the three Martial Arts Gates, transforming his flesh three times and slashing the Overlord Blade Martial Saint.
"A thirty-five-year-old Grandmaster isn’t slow, just two years slower than me..."
In Su Mu’s mind, he could already envision Miaomiao’s incredulous and shocked expression upon learning this news, as she probably never expected she would ever be promoted to Grandmaster.
Yet, unbeknownst to her,
a thirty-five-year-old Grandmaster, looking across Huaxia, or even the entire Blue Star, while not in the most monstrous batch of talents, was still enough to be in the second tier, a true genius among geniuses.
As for a forty-year-old Great Grandmaster, even if not a Titled Grandmaster, in the realm of Grandmasters, those who become Great Grandmasters are one in a thousand miles.
But at the moment, Su Mu himself did not realize this point, he chuckled softly, and after his thoughts returned, Su Mu intended to simulate once more.
"This time, let’s simulate the future of my teacher."
If Teacher Wang Shuheng’s life didn’t end in December 1057, then it would suffice to verify that all the disasters indeed originated from the Sword Pavilion Sword Abyss.
It would also prove that everything was just Su Mu overthinking.
By then, Su Mu just needed to avoid the Sword Pavilion, or wait until his strength became strong enough to explore it.
"Let’s begin!"
...
The shimmering, ever-changing Book of Destiny saw the ancient characters Jiang Miaomiao fade away, quickly replaced by his teacher Wang Shuheng’s name.
An image appeared, of a silver-haired yet vigorous, clear-eyed figure, no longer carrying the air of decadence but exuding a spirited demeanour.
Seeing this teacher image that differed quite a bit from reality, Su Mu was slightly taken aback.
"Teacher must have been quite a handsome man in his youth; just wonder why he never found a wife... The future teacher in runes seems also to have made considerable progress."
After the apparition appeared, the Book of Destiny slowly unfolded.
[Name: Wang Shuheng]
[Gender: Male]
[Lifespan: Martial Dao Civilization Year 982 April ---- Martial Dao Civilization Year 1057 December]
Martial Dao Civilization Year 1057 December?!
The familiar text appeared for the third time!
In an instant, the faint smile on Su Mu’s face froze, an intense electric current surged through his limbs and meridians, making his whole body tremble.
Unutterably eerie, indescribably eerie...
Even the teacher perished in that same year, same month.
At this moment, Su Mu’s scalp tingled, he even suspected that the date not specifically written in the Book of Destiny might be the same day, even the same minute, the same second.
"Why... What exactly happened thirteen years later?!"
"Will it be the Sword Abyss this time..."
...
Su Mu’s heart chilled, his gaze becoming extremely sharp.
He quickly glanced downward.
[Martial Arts: Seventh Level Martial Arts Grandmaster, Eighth Level Inscription Great Grandmaster]
[Life Experience: Master of the Martial Ancestor Su Mu, contemporary great master in space inscriptions, inscription genius...]
[At twenty, graduated early from the South China Martial Arts University’s Inscription Department, subsequently, in two years, began striving to become a Grandmaster-level Rune Master, personally forged a Grandmaster-level Spiritual Weapon, suffered from forging accident damaging Qi and Blood meridians, martial arts cultivation stagnant...]
[At thirty, traveled across various provinces of Huaxia, unsuccessfully sought to heal meridians, became disheartened...]
[At sixty-one, served as a special-appointed professor at Shenjiang Martial Arts University’s Forging Academy, met and took the young Martial Ancestor Su Mu as his first disciple, thereafter, Su Mu provided Silver Lotus Healing Ointment, healing the meridians, and began to comprehend space inscriptions...]
[At sixty-three, achieved Inscription Grandmaster...]
[At sixty-six, initially touched upon space inscriptions, twice failed to become an Inscription Grandmaster, achieved Half-step Inscription Great Grandmaster...]
[At sixty-seven, diligently studied inscriptions, succeeded in the third attempt to become an Inscription Great Grandmaster, became President of the Huaxia Inscription Association...]
...
[Died at Shenjiang Martial Arts University Forging Academy, at the age of seventy-six...]
[Wang Shuheng was discerning in people, giving much support during the Martial Ancestor Su Mu’s rise from obscurity, and in turn achieved greatness himself, touching upon space inscriptions, becoming a contemporary Inscription Great Grandmaster...]
[Character Historical Evaluation: Four-Star!]
[************:*******]
Quickly skimmed through Teacher Wang Shuheng’s Book of Destiny simulation.
Su Mu’s gaze was fixed on the line of death.
This time he guessed wrong.
Teacher Wang Shuheng, in the Book of Destiny’s simulation, did not die at the Sword Pavilion, but at the Shenjiang Martial Arts University, thousands of miles away across provinces.
This world is much larger than the Blue Star of the previous life, a single city in Huaxia is comparable in size to a province of the previous life, or even larger, with the Sword Pavilion being tens of thousands of miles away from Shenjiang City.
Such a great distance, yet affected by the same day.
This implies not just the Sword Pavilion...
Suddenly, trepidation filled Su Mu’s heart.
An unknown terror suddenly struck, Su Mu had not felt such horror in a long time.
The last time was when his dream memory was erased while conscious.
"Not much time left..." The dream shadow’s anxious voice became increasingly clear, like a toll of a great bell.
Dong!
At this moment, Su Mu suddenly realized, that his previous speculation might not be wrong in some sense.
In the near future...
Thirteen years later, this world would face an unprecedented catastrophe, sweeping from the Sword Pavilion to the Guangshen Province, perhaps the entire Huaxia, the entire planet, on the same day.
It would be an apocalyptic catastrophe.
But the source of the catastrophe might not be the Giant Beast Cave heavily guarded by the nations, nor the terrifying Beast Tide.
But an unknown existence.
