Wang Wei sat in the Refining Room with a 10-meter glowing white-grey string floating in front of him. With meticulous care, he inscribed one last rune on it. He sighed before muttering:
Although it took me 50 years I finally finished.
The string first expanded under his control until it occupied the entire room then it returned to its original size. Then the single strings turned into ten hundred a thousand; it kept doubling up until the number reached a few billion.
After that Wang Wei controlled the strings to make different shapes; he first made a sword then a spear followed by a Pagoda and a cauldron.
It seems that choosing the strings was the right choice as it can serve as a multi-purpose Artifacts. Furthermore I can feel that each shape wields a different ability.
After making sure that nothing was wrong with his Proven Dao Artifact Wang Wei placed it inside his Sea of Consciousness. Since the artifact was linked to his Dao–and in turn his soul–it did not have any problem resting there.
After getting something to drink he took a little walk around [Dominating Fate Mountain]–which was the mountain given to him when he became the Sacred Son.
He nodded his head to all the maids bold enough to say hello to him he visited the Demonic Beasts Hall where many powerful beasts were being raised. To his surprise he discovered a Jiaolong–which was a subspecies of True Dragons.
In the Myriad Emperor World this kind of demonic race is actually quite rare and valuable. Meanwhile Wang Wei had one in his mountain and did not even know about it. He was a little ashamed of how little time he spent on this mountain or interact with the people.
As for the demonic beasts since he usually has Yan Chen take him directly to places he rarely used them for traveling.
After checking the Demonic Beast Hall he visited the garden. Once again he was surprised at how valuable the things planted there were. Saint Tier herbs were everywhere along with a few dozens Supreme-Tier ones. He even saw a few Quasi-Emperor herbs.
It was during these moments that Wang Wei realized how privilege he was. Any resources he wanted he just had to ask and someone would bring it to him. He is so rich that he does not even know how much his garden is worth.
Nevertheless he still accepted this kind of blessing.
As Wang Wei walked around the garden he felt rejuvenated peaceful; he felt at home. He knew that this feeling was the result of refining the Yellow Qi Soil into his spleen granting him a greater affinity with the earth and spiritual herbs. He could also guess that his Alchemy also increased–at least the part that need to identify process and mixing herbs.
After he visited the entire mountain he chose a spot with a beautiful view made himself some tea to relax. Unfortunately for him not long after he sat down he saw Li Jun rushing to the Li Family Mountain with blood all over his clothes so he had to call him over.
Big brother are you out of seclusion?
Yes just got out. What’s with all the blood on your clothes?
These? They’re not mine.
I know this I’m asking why they are on you?
Big brother you might not know things have been a little crazy lately. After you enter seclusion Me Tie Gand Liling and even Wang Ju entered seclusion as well to use the Dao Orbs to enlighten and maybe create our own cultivation techniques. The sect even brought us to a Secret Realm where time was sped up.
However after we left the disciples were in terrible shapes; the majority of them were beaten up and the overall morales was very low.
Wang Wei frowned for a moment then he said: Could it be those Top 30 Heaven Chosens?
That’s right. Using their immortality these people–knowing that we do not have anyone on the list–challenged us with no remorse for their lives. Although those guys who used to be Contemporary Sacred Son put up a decent fight there was little they could do since their opponents could not die.
So you were fighting these people?
Yes. After I left seclusion I begin to fight these guys. However no matter how many times I killed them they will just healed instantly and keep coming back. In the end I had to ask for help from Tie Gang and Liling.
So how did you deal with the situation? asked Wang Wei
We no longer played fair. We used a large army to surround anyone who challenged our sect. Liling used a pill to increase the pain of these challengers and we killed them over and over. Wang Ju even used some of the Fate Shadows to assassinate these people day and night.
Even then they did not give up. These guys seemed to want to use the process of constant death to temper themselves.
What about the Top 10 like Lin Fan and Jian Wushuang did they come to challenge us? asked Wang Wei.
Thank Heavens no otherwise I would be helpless.
Any news about these people’s movement?
Young master let me tell you about it said Wang Ju who just landed in front of the two.
There is two great news that occurred in the past 50 years. The first one was the fact that Lin Fan challenged Su Ya again and won easily.
How is that great news?
He did not stop there. After that he challenged all the other members of the Top 30 and he won. Whether it was Jian Wushuang Mo Xingyun or Fang Lijuan he won against them all.
Wang Wei took a sip of his tea That indeed can be qualified as great news. Did he challenge me?
No.
It seems that his guy finally became more intelligent more patient. What about the other people I asked you to keep an eye on?
Di Tian returned to the Western Continent. Unfortunately any attempt we made into infiltrating the Di Clan’s Domains fail. That also goes for the Sect Master’s Shadow.
As such we have concluded that he has a Spy Agency unlike anything in the world and that he most likely have infiltrated the upper echelons of many factions–including ours.
Although this is currently only speculations at this point.
Wang Wei pondered for a moment then he said: I have a way to investigate this later. What about the other people?
Zhen Biyu is still in the Five Elements Palace. A few years ago the Taiyi Profound Gate announced that Feng Heng was the first person after more than 200 generations to successfully cultivate the [Absolute Beginning Art]. However he also has not left the sect since the announcement.
Liu Meixiu seems to be secretly looking for something in the Northern Black Tortoise Continent and she might even be hiding it from the Rasing Herd Valley or at least trying to.
Nodding his head Wang Wei then said: I’m guessing that the second big news has to do with the war Sun Jiaolong started against the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty?
Young master how did you know?
Wang Wei just smiled and did not answer her. When he read Sun Jiaolong’s Fate Line he knew that the latter planned this war as soon as Ji Song died.
After Wang Ju explained the situation to him Wang Wei pondered how he could take advantage of this war. If he plays his cards right he might benefit quite a lot. However now was not the time to intervene.
What about the Secret Realm that contained the Glutonnay Swallowing Scripture? With the information I gave them they should have found it by now? asked Wang Wei.
Yes we did unfortunately the Mo clan also discovered it at the same time. So we have been negotiating with them on how to best use it. They seemed very concerned with it and even prepared to fight us all out for this secret realm.
Tell the sect to give up the benefits in exchange have Mo Xingyun signed a contract that she will hand over a copy of the scripture after acquiring it.
Wang Ju frowned Young master why? A secret realm like this should have some benefits to us.
The Mo clan is trying to trick us. If I’m not mistaken this secret realm is designed for only the devil race or people full of sins and negative karma. So no one from the sect–including me–might not be able to enter even if we tried. And if we manage to do so it might be a trap.
Wang Wei remembered that the person who gave Mo Xingyun the news said that if he could acquire the scripture on his own he would.
Have the sect ask the Mo clan to sent people to inspect the Secret Realm and take note of their reaction. If they react too strongly then my deduction is correct.
I will pass this on. Is there anything else? asked Wang Ju.
Yes. What about the search for the Innate Fire Material. Any news?
Unfortunately no. The Elders have suggested that you use an Emperor-Tier material instead of wasting time waiting.
Is that so? In that case it’s time to use plan B. Go send a challenge invitation to Lin Fan ordered Wang Wei.
