Chapter 462: More Time
Wang Wei returned to a small village in the Central Continent. He floated in the air, looking at a beautiful young woman with green hair. She had numerous lights of light coming from the sky to enter her body.
After a few minutes, a clone identical to her appeared, except that the clone had black hair instead. Once the clone appeared, she changed her face into a normal-looking woman before integrating into the village.
‘Her scripture might help me with my current problem.’
Then, a vision of the future appeared in Wang Wei’s mind. He tried to negotiate and exchange with Su Ya, but she refused. Finally, they fought. Wang Wei then controlled the power of time to see another future.
He sneak-attacked her, trying to instantly read her memories and get what he wants from her soul. Unfortunately, she blew herself up before he succeeded; there was no hesitation.
So, he began to deduce the third future. Unfortunately, before he could even start, he heard a clear and melodious voice:
“I know you’re here. So, come out.”
Wang Wei was momentarily confused about how she detected him. He looked around to see if she was referring to someone else, but his senses could not detect anything.
So, he stopped hiding and appeared.
“How did you discover me?” he wrote in the air. He was confident in his hiding method since he studied the Shadow Ruler Emperor’s Scripture.
‘He’s not speaking? I wonder the reason.’
“You may have perfectly hidden your aura, soul, and energy fluctuation, but I can still see the strong emotions surrounding you,” replied Su Ya.
“Anger, grief, and anxiety. What a strange combination.”
Wang Wei frowned after hearing this. He closed his eyes to feel his body and emotions, and he could feel that an invisible aura based on desires and emotions emanated from his body.
He then controlled it to hide it inside his body. This short interaction taught him another method of sensing people.
Su Ya frowned after detecting what happened.
“His comprehension is too scary,’ she thought.
“So, to what I bring this visit?”
“I want to make an exchange with you,” wrote Wang Wei despite knowing his chances of success were not high.
“Again? The last time we made a deal, I suffered.”
“I doubt that.”
“So, what do you want this time?”
“I want your Dao Scripture, The Death Survival Book.”
“Are you serious?” asked Su Ya with a mocking look.
“I know I’m asking much, but I don’t need the entire scripture, just the part about using emotions to create clones. The price is negotiable.”
While saying these, he was also calculating the future. However, Wang Wei discovered that although he could defeat his opponent, she had no fear of death and had many ways to escape.
“I refuse,” replied Su Ya.
Wang Wei sighed after hearing this, made a sword finger, and slashed in the air, cutting countless yellow strings. Immediately, Su Ya’s face changed as she felt that more than 100,000 of her clones had instantly died.
“The Power of Karma,” she muttered with gritted teeth. Causality was her nemesis. If all her clones died, then anyone could kill her. And based on how effortless Wang Wei’s attack was, she knew he could probably kill more than just 100,000.
“If I wanted to kill you, I don’t need to go through all that struggle.”
After writing these words, Wang Wei waved his hand to manifest a strange power: the Duyi Realm. Although Su Ya did not know what this power was, she could feel it could kill her without destroying all her clones.
Meaning that if she died, all her clones would follow soon. Her face became very difficult to look at it. She took a deep breath to calm down and think about the situation.
Her face became calm and indifferent as many people flashed across her eyes.
“I agree with your trade.”
“So, what do you want?”
“I want a talisman that can summon the River of Fate.”
Wang Wei pondered for a moment before his eyes lighted up. He guessed that she wanted to gather emotions and desires. The River of Fate contained the lives of all individuals that existed, currently exist, and will exist.
As such, it is the perfect place to gather emotions and desires, thus drastically increasing Su Ya’s cultivation and strength. So, after mulling it over for a few seconds, he said:
“No problem, but I can only summon a projection of the River of Fate in the Myriad Emperor World. However, there should be no problem in the lower realm.”
Wang Wei did not lose in this deal. Additionally, he could use her idea for his benefit. As for Su Ya, she did not mind as well since she could still achieve her goal from the projection.
Additionally, she can go to the lower realm if needed.
Then, the two signed a contract with the highest restriction after checking that no one schemed against one another.
Wang Wei then used his finger to write countless runes in the sky. Then, he used the power of Heaven and Earth to condense them into a talisman. Heavenly Tribulations appeared, and the talisman underwent Law Baptisement before finishing.
Finally, they made their exchange.
The moment Su Ya received the talisman and handed the technique, eight books appeared behind her creating a multicolored ball that rushed toward Wang Wei, who sighed after seeing this sneak attack.
He knew what she wanted to do. That ball contained an enormous amount of seven emotions and six desires. And if it hit him, he would experience the worst imaginable Demon Heart Tribulation.
The kind of Demon Heart that can drive even someone like him insane or shatter his Dao Heart.
Wang Wei clenched his fist and punched with slight anger in his eyes.
Boom!
The entire Domain–bigger than clusters of galaxies in his previous life–trembled; he used all 47 Dragon Force. The force of that attack annihilated the multicolored ball before continue moving forward.
Fear appeared in Su Ya’s eyes. She knew that this attack would kill her if hit. She felt she suffered in all her interactions with this Sacred Son, so she wanted to take this opportunity where he was vulnerable and deal a severe blow to him.
However, she soon realized she had made a mistake; she had become too cocky after her success against Jian Wushuang. She forgot that the person in front of him was considered an Era-Suppressing Genius by many people.
She controlled her emotions and activated the eight books to create a pink shield to protect her. Then, a void crack appeared to swallow her; she wanted to run away.
Wang Wei frowned after seeing that shield. He could feel the power of love. It was as if the entire world loved Su Ya, and she condensed that love into the ultimate protection.
‘Is this the power of an Emperor Artifact?’
Most Heaven Chosens will not have access to their sect’s Emperor Artifact until the Supreme Realm to prevents overreliance and protects them from destroying their foundation after using it.
Because of how powerful these things are, if a person’s strength is not enough, the artifact will absorb their cultivation, soul power, and vitality.
The exception to this rule seemed to be Su Ya. All the Great Emperors of the Yin Moon Palace had the Seven Emotions Six Desires Physique, and they fused their artifacts and scriptures into a book with seven pages.
Each page contained a scripture involving the Dao of Emotions and Desires and served as an Emperor Artifact. As the owner of the same physique, Su Ya can use the power of that artifact without paying a high price–albeit she cannot use its full power.
As Wang Wei watched Su Ya run away, he sneered. He used the secret Karmic Thread on her to cast a technique: Fate of Misfortune.
‘Enjoy your bad luck.’
He then returned home, heading straight to a retreat.
He wanted to create numerous Future Buddha Self with the power of emotions. And at first, everything went smoothly as the power of emotions ideally suited this Buddhist scripture.
However, Wang Wei realized that the second Future Buddha Self would dissipate a few seconds after being condensed. It did not matter how much emotion he used.
In the end, he discovered that he needed Time Power to condense the other Future Buddha Self. With no choice, he had to gather some from the Time Acceleration Array and use time-related resources from his sect.
Unfortunately, he only had enough resources for 32 new Future Buddha Self in addition to the one he already had. Although slightly disappointed that he could not have millions of them, when Wang Wei realized the terror of this technique, he understood the restriction.
For example, when comprehending the law, he can use one Future Buddha Self to take his comprehension of that law a year into the future and merge it with his present self.
Then, the second Self will take his comprehension a year in the future of the first Self, repeating this cycle to the 33rd Self. In other words, Wang Wei’s cultivation of one year equals everybody else’s 33 years without using a Time Formation or affecting his life span.
And with more Future Buddha Self, the more time he will have. Not to mention his already existing heaven-defying comprehensions.
Wang Wei was delighted with this discovery since he could make up for a problem he discovered with his Fate Incarnation Plans: Time.
According to his calculation, it would probably take him over 100,000 years to reach the Quasi-Emperor Realm and begin the Heaven Will Battle. And since he can only create his incarnation after the Void Shattering Realm, each of the nine incarnations will have even less time to cultivate to the Quasi-Realm.
Meanwhile, Di Tian lived for more than nine reincarnations and assumed that life he could survive until the end of his lifespan, which meant he had 9 million years to cultivate and comprehend the Dao based on the average life span of the Supreme Realm.
Well, it is even worse. Quasi-Emperors have at least 5 million years of life span. Adding to that Di Tian’s fleshly body, that’s another 5 million years of life at the minimum.
If he ever had a physique during his rise, that’s another 3 million years. Plus, with life-extending pills and resources, it’s not impossible to live 15 to 20 million years in each reincarnation.
Although Wang Wei had confidence in his Paragon-Quality Soul, he was not confident to make up that gap with just the 9 Reincarnations.
But now, things were different; he had the utmost confidence that he can make up the time.
