Ning arrived at the bright, golden city with beasts roaming the lands mostly. Nin knew that the beasts here had set up land not that different from the humans, but Ning was still surprised to see how developed it was.

There were houses, roads, street lamps, and everything in between. While these beasts were beasts, they were still civilized.

White Depth Field took Ning towards the massive golden palace in the distance that was wider than multiple cities combined. Ning could only wonder just how much metal was used to make that palace.

The guarding feline beasts were surprised to see someone without a beast core coming to their place. However, since White Depth Field was with him, they had no reason to deny entry.

Ning went in with the tiger and roamed the insides of the giant palace. There were places that he wasn't allowed to go, and he respected that.

He was only here to visit after all.

Ning met up with White Depth Field's parents. He met up with his cousins, and various other elders from the clan that he really wanted him to meet.

Aside from his parents, no one truly cared about Ning enough to hide their disdain at a human coming to their family palace.

White Depth Field then took him to some place where he wanted to show the palace's features. There were gardens, a spirit vein that was filled with nothing but metal Qi in it, and a mural that was said to be left behind from the times when the war between humans and demons had just begun.

Ning looked at the mural and his eyes went wide in shock. "They know!" he spoke out loud.

"Hm? Who knows?" White Depth field asked.

"Do you know what this mural is about?" Ning asked.

"No, it was left behind from the days of our progenitor. He was said to be the one who made this and since after his death, no one knows what this means," White Depth Field said.

"I see," Ning thought. "It is vague enough that people wouldn't understand. Still, to think there was something that hinted at the truth that was once lost."

"Truth?" White Depth Field looked back at the mural. "Is this important, master?"

"Very," Ning said. "But not to the people that do not understand it or can't make sense of it."

"Oh," White Depth Field's eyes went back to the mural. "It's important, huh?" He had always seen this as an art piece, but to think it was something important. White Depth Field got quite interested in the mural.

Ning went around the place a bit before leaving White Depth Field and returned back to the hut in the forest.

A few hundred years later, Ning was once again visited by White Depth Field. He had formed his Core and was just moments away from breaking through and forming his soul.

White Depth Field had successfully hidden his prowess and was thus deemed as someone that was necessary for the clan, but not enough for him to lead. As such, he was going to be married to his long-time love, the Lynx for political reasons.

White Depth Field couldn't care less about the reason and was just happy to be getting married.

Ning attended the wedding and was shocked to find that he wasn't just marrying the Lynx, but a few other beasts as well.

"This little kid has a harem, huh? He's living his life," Ning thought.

Ning had to give some sort of gift to the married man, so he crafted an artifact. Two tiny golden spheres with spikes on them were tied to a small chain that ended on a pin to put into one's ear.

It was an artifact that was created using the system, so it was way stronger than anyone in there could imagine.

With the two earrings alone, White Depth Field had ended up becoming one of the strongest individuals in the entire clan, and Ning made sure to tell him that so that he could plan accordingly.

White Depth Field was shocked and thanked Ning profusely. Ning didn't mind giving such a gift as it had cost him barely a fraction of the quintillions of energy he had.

Once done, Ning returned to the hut, to be left alone for thousands of years.

White Depth Field returned sometime later and let Ning know that he had got himself a few concubines. Aside from that, he had finally become immortal.

Then, he was gone for thousands and thousands of years and only came to meet him one time to let him know that he was leaving this world.

"Where are you going?" Ning asked.

"To a small world without immortals," he said. "My clan took upon some responsibilities after the war ended, and I have to go fulfill them. I will come back once I'm done there, will you wait for me?"

Ning thought for a second and shook his head. "I will be leaving at any year now. The most I can stay is 5 to 10 thousand more years. If you will be back by then, then we can meet."

White Depth Field was saddened but he didn't let his emotion stop him from his responsibility. "Then this is goodbye, master."

"No it is not," Ning said. "I will come to meet you before I leave."

"Oh!" White Depth Field was surprised. "Then I will meet you then," he said smilingly.

The tiger left, and Ning stayed in the forest. After a while, he left as well, roaming around the world one last time before he was to leave.

After 9 thousand years, Ning was finally ready to leave this universe. "Right, I need to find Black Halo," he thought.

He asked the system and found out where he was.

He was in a minor world, on a continent with barely any humans living on it.

Ning arrived at the continent and found the man. "We will be leaving soon," he told the man.

"I know," Black Halo said. "I arrived here and have remained in wait of you ever since I divined that this is the place from where we will be leaving."
