Chapter 566: Chapter 566: This Ambition is Very High_1

"I did have some opportunities, but they were unrelated to my father. I learned in Dingburg that twenty-seven years ago, he and my mother were taken back to Mount Kahdas Cave Heaven by a Miss Tang. After that, there was no further news."

These details weren’t considered secret since they were all gathered through inquiries, so Carson Flores spoke candidly. However, he concealed the identity of Isabella Roth.

After all, a lie that’s nine parts truth is the most convincing.

Kaenu Hail asked, "Can you tell me about it?"

Carson Flores replied with a smile, "I went to Mount Kahdas partly because of my father, but also for refuge. After all, the Five Dragon Sect is after me with the Five Dragon Order. One day, I stumbled upon a place; there was a pond there, surrounded by ice and snow, but the pond itself was not frozen. And at the edge of that pond, there was a middle-aged man fishing..."

Kaenu Hail’s eyes suddenly brightened. "Fishing in the frozen lands of Mount Kahdas?"

Carson Flores recounted how the man had shared some of his fish with him, which he ate before making his Breakthrough. He told the story only half truthfully.

Kaenu Hail regarded him with an odd look. "That man must also be from the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens, perhaps even from Mount Kahdas Cave Heaven. Didn’t you ask him about your father?"

Carson Flores gave a wry smile. "After eating the fish, I sat down to cultivate. By the time I opened my eyes again, he had vanished. I wanted to ask, but there was no one to ask."

Kaenu Hail chuckled. "It seems you missed an opportunity to make inquiries."

Seeing that Kaenu Hail was quite approachable, Carson Flores took the opportunity to voice his own doubts. "President, as the top Innate expert, you must have had some contact with the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens, right? You should have had the chance to enter one, I assume?"

Kaenu Hail answered with a smile, "Are you asking me why I haven’t entered the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens and why I’m still lingering in this mortal world?"

Carson Flores nodded. "Yes."

Kaenu Hail responded, "I have had contact with the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens, but that does not mean I can easily enter. Moreover, once inside, I would no longer be the top expert, but an ordinary existence, one that countless others could trample on. So... there’s no rush, no rush..."

Carson Flores was stunned; he hadn’t expected Kaenu Hail to give such an answer.

Better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond?

Carson Flores, curious, asked, "But doesn’t entering the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens grant you a longer life?"

Kaenu Hail sighed, "Of course, the idea is to enter, but choosing the right Blessed Land of Cave Heavens is crucial. It’s like getting married; a wrong choice means a lifetime of regret, with little chance to turn things around."

Carson Flores’s interest was piqued. "Are there many Blessed Lands of Cave Heavens?"

Kaenu Hail nodded. "Ten Great Cave Heavens, thirty-six Lesser Cave Heavens, seventy-two Blessed Lands. Although some have fallen and no longer exist, there are still many that remain. These vary in size and strength..."

"You could think of each as a company of varying scale and size. As a job seeker, you’re only one person and can join only one company, and you have just one chance to make a choice. Naturally, you want to choose a large company with strong capabilities, offering more room for advancement and opportunities for appreciation."

"I did have several opportunities before, but the parties weren’t strong enough, so I turned them down. I’m waiting for the next opportunity. If things go well, I should live for many more decades; there’s still time..."

Carson Flores realized then that it was not that Kaenu Hail lacked the opportunity to enter a Blessed Land of Cave Heavens; he was simply being picky!

After all, being the top Innate cultivator and the number one in this world, it seemed too far-fetched to claim he had no contact with the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens or couldn’t enter one.

True to the top expert he was, he certainly had high aspirations!

Other cultivators would jump at any chance to enter a Blessed Land of Cave Heavens, concerned not whether it was a large or small domain, but Kaenu Hail was waiting for a big Cave Heaven or nothing.

Carson Flores asked curiously, "What’s the power level of Mount Kahdas Cave Heaven?"

"One of the Ten Great Cave Heavens."

Kaenu Hail looked at Carson Flores with that peculiar gaze again. "Your father is from Mount Kahdas Cave Heaven; if ever you get the chance to enter, don’t hesitate. I, for one, no longer have such an opportunity."

Carson Flores asked in surprise, "Even a top expert like you, they wouldn’t take?"

Kaenu Hail gave a wistful smile. "What are the high experts of this mortal realm in the eyes of true cultivators? Moreover, cultivators value destiny and good fortune. Didn’t you encounter a Noble in Mount Kahdas? That was fate. It’s a pity that at the time you were only a Great Grandmaster. If you had been a Peak Innate Grandmaster, that Noble might have taken a liking to you, assisted in your Breakthrough beyond Innate, or perhaps allowed you to enter the Blessed Land of Cave Heavens. You would have been turned around overnight..."

Carson Flores laughed. "Being able to Breakthrough to Innate is satisfying enough for me. I’m still young, and going by what you’ve said, President, I have a long life ahead. There surely must be chances for me, right?"
