King of Assassins

The true source of meaningful data comes from those who master it.

Without a doubt, Gao Xuan is the weakest among the ten Sages. In terms of personal Power or strength, there's a huge gap compared to the other Sages.

However, only Gao Xuan has the most potential.

Nuwa has witnessed firsthand how Gao Xuan has grown. In the future, Gao Xuan has limitless possibilities.

The other nine Sages, however, are merely a group of old fogeys. Even if their bodies are young, their minds have completely stalled.

It's hard for ordinary people to accept new systems of knowledge after reaching the age of forty.

The Golden Powerhouses can live over a thousand years, yet after upgrading to Gold, their thinking has already solidified.

Only earth-shattering changes can alter their thoughts.

This is also the limitation of humanity.

For three thousand years, Nuwa has witnessed generations of Sages decline and die. She is accustomed to it. She gradually understood a truth, which is the nature of humanity, even the essence of all intelligent life.

No intelligent life can grow forever, nor can any intelligent life achieve immortality.

The several Sages gravely regard Gao Xuan as a life-and-death adversary.

In Nuwa's eyes, it's like an ordinary card game where everyone uses countless tricks, and the winnings are trivial.

Nuwa said to the many Sages, "Gentlemen, this is the Seventh Sage."

She smiled and said, "Everyone is here, we can start the meeting."

The First Sage said in a deep voice, "Administrator, wait a moment, I have a question."

Nuwa nodded and gestured for the First Sage to speak.

The First Sage directly asked Gao Xuan, "Who are you? Please reveal your true identity."

Gao Xuan had already memorized the rules of the Moisture Hall thoroughly, and even though the other side was intimidating, there was no need to pay attention.

"The identity of a Sage is of the highest-level confidential. Each Sage is only accountable to the Holy Hall."

Gao Xuan leisurely said, "If you want to know my identity, reveal yours first."

He then addressed the other Sages, "Gentlemen, if you wish to know others' secrets, you must first show your sincerity."

The First Sage was a bit annoyed; the other party was indeed arrogant.

The nine of them roughly know each other's identities.

The Sages' lineage is rooted in certain factions.

Yet, they restrained themselves from probing into each other's specific identities.

The Seventh Sage appeared suddenly, sharing the highest authority of the Moisture Hall with them, which was something none of the Sages could accept.

The First Sage ignored Gao Xuan and said to the other Sages, "I propose that the Seventh Sage reveal their identity, raise your hand if you agree."

The other eight Sages raised their hands in unison.

The First Sage said to Gao Xuan, "The Sage's decision, passed by a majority. This decision must be enforced."

Gao Xuan shook his head, "According to the Holy Hall's supreme Holy Law, a Sage's identity is under the highest level of protection. Even the Heart of Data cannot reveal a Sage's identity by any means.

"Your decision violates the Holy Law and is meaningless."

The nine Sages fell silent; they all knew this Holy Law. They were just trying to bully the Seventh Sage, a newcomer, to coax him into speaking voluntarily.

If Gao Xuan voluntarily revealed his identity, then he's just too foolish, and they couldn't be blamed.

Among the Sages, there is a ranking but no hierarchical relationship. The First Sage holds the highest position, acting as the host with the greatest influence.

However, he also doesn't have the authority to manage the Seventh Sage.

The group of Sages discussed privately, with no effective solution. The Sages had their own thoughts and couldn't truly unite against the Seventh Sage.

In Gao Xuan's eyes, each Sage was a complex data stream made of 0s and 1s.

The Sage Robes are indeed connected to the Heart of Data. To breach the Sage Robe's defense, one must first breach the Heart of Data.

No level of hacker can compete with the Heart of Data at the data layer.

Even though Gao Xuan's Six-winged Celestial Cicada is wondrous, it has an essential difference compared to the Heart of Data at the data-information level.

He cannot crack the protection of the Sage Robes nor capture the source behind the data stream of the Sage Robes, let alone know the state of consciousness controlling the data stream.

In the Moisture Hall, a Sage's entire consciousness turns into data, and then the data, following a corresponding logic, turns into actions, language, etc.

In the Moisture Hall, personal Cultivation, status, and power are not important. What matters is the permission Level of the Heart of Data.

No matter how strong the nine Sages' Power is, they have no way to deal with him here.

Conversely, he could see some traces of the nine Sages.

The key is that the nine Sages' Spiritual Power is too strong. Their genuine aversion and hatred for him all feedback into the Celestial Demon Relic.

While the Celestial Demon Relic can constantly receive Spiritual Spirit, the Spiritual Power of the nine Sages is too little.

Unfortunately, some Sages are too far away, making it barely possible to deduce the Star Realm they are in. Some other Sages have strong protection, making it impossible for Gao Xuan to backtrack their position from the Celestial Demon Relic.

Gao Xuan discovered that the Tenth Sage is particularly close to him. Although this Sage also has Marvels to shield from outside detection, Gao Xuan immediately identified this person's identity from the position.

It was indeed fate!

With this important discovery, Gao Xuan was in good spirits.

Nuwa couldn't see through Gao Xuan's tricks, she secretly said to him, "Those old guys are discussing how to deal with you, are you afraid?"

"What's there to be afraid of."

Gao Xuan nonchalantly said, "In less than two years, this entire group of old guys will be kneeling at my feet calling me Dad."

"You speak so lightly. Wait until the annual meeting summary, let's see how you make it through."
