Chapter 406: Secrets of this World
Wang Wei managed to acquire five instances in Di Tian’s life. The first one was the same that Li Jun stole from his memories. It was the one where he was he was holding the dead body of his supposed wife.
The second one was a snippet of a battle with a handsome man. The moment Wang Wei saw it, he recognize it as his ancestor, Emperor Qiyuan. When he was young, he had to participate in the worship of the ancestors–including the Wang, Yao, and Li clans.
The third piece of information he gathered was a brief one. He only saw a woman waving a bamboo sword, then, Di Tian was annihilated on an atomic level.
The fourth memory was a great battle between a three-eyed devil and a beautiful woman. The moment he laid eyes on her, he recognized her as Empress Wu as she looked exactly like Wu Hong.
The only difference was their temperament; she appeared more cold and indifferent; it was as if she was alienating everyone that tried to get close to her.
The battle was quite magnificent. Unfortunately, he only watched a little bit of it. However, he knew that he could learn something from watching it.
The last memory was of an injured individual who was roaring and cursing at Heaven, asking why he woke up his memories only now. The person was full of grief and indignation.
Wang Wei opened his eyes as his wisdom flashed across them.
“Nine Samsara Fist…Nine Reincarnations… Fought at least 3 Eternal Emperors…Based on the clothes of the last memory and the surrounding, it looked like the style of the Middle Emperor Era.”
After pondering deeply about it, he had a theory on why Di Tian was so powerful. The simple answer is his terrifying foundation. Through nine reincarnations, he cultivated to the peak of the Quasi-Emperor, then absorbed it in his next life.
This method was exactly the same as the Nine Nirvana Blood Qi that he created to break the barrier to the 13th layer of the Body Refining Realm. After realizing this, Wang Wei begins to plan on how to make up for the gap between them.
His first thought is to create different clones and have them cultivated from scratch before absorbing them. However, he shook his head. This method was not feasible.
Clones were part of oneself. As such, doing this would increase his foundation but not as much as he imagined. Otherwise, Su Ya–with all her countless clones–would be overpowered.
Based on his theory, the reason Di Tian is so powerful is that each time he reincarnates, his soul and maybe even his cultivation is baptized by the power of Samsara, thus drastically increasing his understanding, control, and strength of his Dao.
So, although clones could be an alternative, it is not ideal; it would not help as much.
Another method would be to separate some of his spirit particles into reincarnation and experienced the same thing as Di Tian. Then, when they grow up and reach the Quasi-Emperor Realm, he absorbed them.
Unfortunately, this plan will require a deep understanding of the Law of Reincarnation, something which he does not. However, there may be some Reincarnation-related artifacts in the sect.
“Wait, I do not need to use the Dao of Reincarnation to accomplish this task when fate is just as good.”
Wang Wei’s brain started to work like a supercomputer.
‘As long as I have my spirit particles steal the fate of a weak mortal, then have him slowly rise to the top of the cultivation world before finally absorbing it, this should work.’
As a person who cultivates the Dao of Fate, it would be better to use this method as it was more suited for him. So, he spent some time further fine-tuning his plan.
“For this to work, I need to remove the Karmic Sins of the spirit particles used.”
This was not a problem for him as he had already done this to the spirit particles he used for both Chu Mo and Zhou Shu. However, for his plan to work, he has to use more than one spirit particle.
For each of the nine Fate Incarnations of himself that he will use, he might need to use more than one spirit particle, so it will take a little time to refine them and remove the sins.
As for the reason he will only make nine, Wang Wei had a feeling that nine was the limit he could use this technique. Although he will still try to test more, he still believed in his intuition.
While he was thinking about how things might go wrong with his plan and how to fix it, Wang Wei suddenly opened his eyes.
“Some is trying to calculate my secrets?”
After checking what it was, he discovered that it was a form of divination that did not rely on the power of faith. Instead, it relied on Yin and Yang, or the constant changes of the universe to calculate the secrets of Heaven.
Essentially, it is the same method of divination using a different Dao.
After sensing this power, Wang Wei immediately blocked it while at the same time tracking it back to its source. Then, he saw an old man with his head and beard entirely white.
He was dressed in coarse linen clothes that only peasant mortals would wear. After seeing the old man who had a terrifying look on his face, Wang Wei snorted coldly, making him spit a big mouthful of blood before breaking the calculation.
“The Unspoken Sect? Interesting,” he muttered before concentrating his focus on his two pawn chess pieces.
Meanwhile, in the Righteous Alliance, a meeting was taken place. The upper echelons of the alliance were still discussing the issue of Wang Wei despite a month having passed since his arrival.
The Alliance insisted on organizing all their main power to eradicate this devil that has occupied their sun. However, the other members disagreed as all their previous attempts failed, resulting in many of them being injured.
They also know that if it was not for the fact that this unknown Demon Monarch refused to attack them for some reason, with that formation alone, they would be instantly killed.
While everyone was in the midst of their arguments, the vice-alliance, Tong Hua, suddenly frowned. Her small action suddenly caught the attention of everyone around.
“Vice-Leader, is there a problem?”
“I just received an emergency call from the sect, so I must return.”
“Do you need any help?”
“No, this is just a private matter.”
Everyone nodded and no longer asked. No one mentioned the fact that she interrupted such an important meeting for a personal matter. The people in the room knew that in terms of strength and ability, she was the most qualified for the post of Alliance Leader.
If it was not because she was a woman and did not fight very hard for the position, she would have been the one in that seat,
After leaving the meeting, Tong Hua used a Transmission Array to quickly return to her sect. With the array and her cultivation as a Profound God Realm True Monarch, she quickly reached her destination.
Without pausing, she rushed to a desolate mountain where a small cottage lay. This was a restricted area that only she as the sect master can go to. As soon as she entered the cottage, she saw an old man in coarse linen clothes with blood all over his body.
“Supreme Elder, what is wrong with you?”
“Don’t worry, I’m fine; just a little backlash from calculating this new Demon Monarch. Luckily, he just wanted to warn me.”
“He’s that powerful?”
“Indeed. That’s the reason I wanted to calculate him. I wanted to know if he would interfere with our plans.”
While injecting her profound energy inside the old man’s body to soothe his injury, Tong Hua asked: “So, what do we do now?”
“Although I did not get much information, what I know for sure is that his existence will add many variables to things.”
“From the information gathered this path month, he does not seem interested in intervening in the world. Plus, there is a high chance that he was injured or his life span is running out.”
“It does not matter. When someone is powerful enough, their presence is enough to affect the destiny of everyone in the vicinity,” replied the Supreme Elder.
“So, what’s our next step of action?”
“We have to advance the plan to now.”
“Are you sure that’s alright?”
The old man sighed, ” Our ancestors have been planning this for countless generations. If nothing went wrong, it should have been your generation to benefit. So, pushing things in advance will not affect the general trend.”
Tong Hua nodded her head in agreement while hoping that things go according to plan.
A week after this meeting, a piece of shocking news spread throughout the Heavenly Profound Continent:
All the members of the Righteous Sect Alliance were killed by a powerful Demon Monarch that infiltrated their sect. The only survivor was the Vice-Leader who had to leave because of an emergency a week prior.
