Now that all his plans had come to fruition, Feng Heng was thinking about his future plans. Like every other Heaven Chosens, he wanted to sit on the Supreme Throne and become a Great Emperor, so he began to plan ahead.

'Now that I have become Feng Heng, the next step in my plan can begin. However, I need to consider my future opponents in this generations Heaven Will Battle. With my talent, experience, and future strength after acquiring the Absolute Beginning Dao Art, few of these so-called Heaven Chosens will be my match. At least for now.

'However, those 3 are different.'

'Well, I can eliminate Wang Wei. As an Outlaw that is trying to take control of one of the 5 Hidden Supreme Daos, he will not live very long. So, as long as I wait long enough, he will not be a problem.'

'Then there is that Wu Hong. this woman looked too much like Empress Wu. Beside her temperament that is more cheery and joyful, she is the exact copy of the Empress. So her secrets are probably no less than mine. As such, she will be a very troublesome opponent.

'Lastly, it's that Di Tian. I have this feeling that I have met him before, but I can't put my finger on where. Given that he was born with the power of Reincarnation, could he be the reincarnation of some old monsters that I have met before? No matter the truth, he will be a problem so I need to watch him closely.'

'No matter what, this generations throne will belong to me, and a new Era of Buddhism will be started by my hand.'

After taking a few minutes to think to himself, Feng Heng took out a talisman and contacted the Sect Master of the Taiyi Profound Gate.

"Little Feng, what is it?

" asked a calm and soothing voice. On the other side of the talisman was an old man with long white hair and beard, wearing a taoist garment. Despite his old age appearance, this person was actually in the same generation as Sect Master Wang Tian.

"Celestial Master, I have awakened the Yin-Yang Eyes!

" After saying that, Feng Heng activated his new physique, then his eyes turned black and white.

The Celestial Master of the Taiyi Profound Gate frowned after hearing and seeing Feng Heng's eyes. Normally, Heavenly Physiques are granted by Heaven and Earth, so most people are actually born with them.

So after birth, their physique can be discovered. However, there are rare occasions when someone actually awakened an Heavenly Physique during the later years of their life. Nevertheless, such a thing is extremely rare throughout the history of the Myriad Emperor World.

'This would explain why Feng Heng' soul lamp was momentarily extinguished,' thought the Celestial Master. 'According to speculations, all the Top Ten Heavenly Physiques should appear in this Glorious Age, but for so many years, it was nowhere to be seen.'

'Our Profound Gate have spent so many resources searching for it to no avail. Now, it seems that it is because it woke up a little late.'

"So, what are you going to do now?

" asked the Celestial Master with a happy smile on his face. Their Taiyi Profound Gate finally have a true Heaven Chosen that can represent them on the Heavens Will battle.

"I want to cultivate the Absolute Beginning Dao Art.

" replied Feng Heng calmly, but with a determined voice.

"Are you sure about this? You have spent so many years cultivating the Yin-Yang Reversal Manual and your foundation has already been set. Cultivating another Emperor Scripture will take you a lot of time to modify?

"

"On top of that, your current cultivation technique perfectly suits your new physique. Not to mention all the tests you have to go through before you can get access to the Absolute Beginning Dao Art? Even if you have the Yin-Yang Eyes, without the sufficient level of Tao understanding, the sect will not allow you to cultivate the Ancestor's Dao Art!

" replied the Celestial Master calmly.

"I insist, Celestial Master.

"

"So be it.

" nodded the Sect Master of the Taiyi Profound Gate. The only reason he asked in the first place was to determine Feng Heng's determination. Of course things will not proceed as smoothly as he made them out to be.

Before anything else, the sect will do a thorough search on Feng Heng and make sure that nothing was wrong with him. After all, his soul lamp was extinguished for a brief moment--signifying that he was dead for this period of time. So, the sect will check whether someone had seized his body.

Then they will check his sudden gain of the Yin-Yang Eyes. When everything is clear, then he will have the opportunity to take the test to gain access to the Absolute Beginning Art.

"So, what are you going to do with this Tournament?

" asked the Celestial Master.

"I do not wish to continue participating as passing the sect's test is more important and conducive to my future. As for the Dao Tablets, I am sure that the sect can pay a certain price to acquire an entrance token for me.

"

"The Academy should give our Profound Gate some face. Then, I'll see you back at the sect in a while.

" The Celestial Master said as he disconnected the communication talisman.

As for Feng Heng, he sighed in relief as he knew that he passed the first step in being his former disciple--without showing any weakness.

As a matter of fact, Feng Heng lied and did not explain his real motive for not participating in the tournament.

The truth of the matter was that he did not want to place his name on the Heavenly Dao Protection Book.

According to the Laws and Regulation of Heaven and Earth, all cultivators in the Supreme Realm and under are considered mortals. Such, they all have a limited lifespan and will one day enter Samsara to reincarnate themselves. They will repeat the process until their souls are completely annihilated and returned to Heaven and Earth.

Or if they managed to reach the level of cultivation of the Great Emperor, Dao Ancestor or Immortal Venerable.

However, Shi Fuyu was different as he managed to find a way to live far longer than Heaven and Earth allows a mortal to. So, he believed without a doubt that if he placed his name on that book, the Heavenly Dao would recognize him and his actions.

Then, Divine Punishment Thunder will instantly fall from the sky to eradicate him from this world. Even his primordial spirit would be completely annihilated thus preventing him from ever reincarnating.

Of course, technically speaking, now Shi Fuyu is completely Feng Heng, so the Heavenly Dao should not recognize him. Nevertheless, he did not want to take this chance. He has been planning for eons, and now that he was close to succeeding, he did not want some silly mistake or overconfidence to ruin his plans.

As for the 3000 Dao Tablets, he had seen them countless times. Throughout his years, he managed to infiltrate the Academy and became enlightened in front of them. As a matter of fact, he even once encountered the tablets before they were baptized by countless Great Emperors, making them so powerful and valuable.

The only reason that he wanted to see them again was to further his understanding of the Absolute Beginning Dao Art after acquiring it, and to prevent the people of his sect from being suspicious of his lack of interest in such a powerful aid.

After reorganizing his thoughts, Feng Heng contacted his Dao Protector to leave the Tournaments Secret Realm. Of course his departure caught the attention of many people. After all, Feng Heng was still one of the Seeded Players.

However, given that three of the most powerful and mysterious Heaven Chosens of this generation did not participate in this tournament, Feng Heng's departure was not that sensational.

The only people who truly cared were the upper echelons of the Emperor Enlightening Academy. Every time a Heaven Chosen refuses to participate in this trial, they are the ones who lose as they could not absorb the little bit of Qi Luck from these geniuses.

Nevertheless, the Academy was happy with the generous rewards that the Taiyi Profound Gate were offering to give a quota to Feng Heng to enter the Tablets' Secret Realm. Although not nearly as good as what the Dao Opening Sect offered for Wang Wei, it was still extraordinary.

Given that Feng Heng was not nearly as threatening as Wang Wei, they gladly accepted the offer.

Just like that, ten years passed rapidly, and the tournament was still ongoing. Of the 15 billion participants, only 1 billion was still left. Meaning that the end of the Elimination Round was quickly approaching.

In the floating booth of the upper echelons of the Emperor Enlightening Academy, all the teachers were still watching the tournament. For cultivators of their caliber, ten years was shorter than any random retreat that they had.

While everybody was watching the few exceptional candidates, headmaster Bai Han suddenly felt that something was wrong. So, he released his Divine Sense to scan the Academy, but he did not find anything.

So, he used his finger to calculate the secrets of Heaven. Then, he suddenly stood up and shouted:

"What is going on?

"
