After refining Zhen Chao’s soul, Wang Wei discovered his Soul Network had now access to the World Community, where the latter lived the longest and even became the Young Sect Master of the Martial Origin Sect.

He closed his eyes to activate the ability, and he could see two squared in his mind; upon focus, he could see two names on these squares: Myriad Emperor World Community and Martial Supreme World Community.

‘So, the name of each World Community is based on the Heaven Will World that served as its center? That’s convenient.’

He focused on the Martial Supreme World Community before seeing a purple orb which indicated the Martial Supreme World, along with a few other colors. However, Wang Wei realized there were not as many worlds in this community as the Myriad Emperor.

To be precise, it was more complex and longer for him to search for other worlds in the Martial Supreme World Community than his own. Nevertheless, he had time and plenty of Spiritual Strenght, so he did not mind.

‘I wonder what is the criteria to gain access to these World Communities,’ thought Wang Wei. He knew it had something to do with souls. However, Zhen Chao had previously traveled to five other World Communities, but Wang Wei only had access to one of them.

So, it could be because it was the one Zhen Chao spent the most time with or the one he thought was his home. Or, it could be something else entirely.

As Wang Wei looked at these two World Communities, he began to plan his resource-gathering scheme. His main target will be people with great luck, Sons of Destiny, or people in desperate need. He will contact these people when in dire need before exploiting them for high-level resources.

Additionally, he can connect to some powerful Heaven Chosens to exchange resources from their World Community while also exchanging their understanding of the Dao.

“However, If I want my plan to succeed, I will need access to more World Communities,” Wang Wei muttered, thinking about how he could expand his Soul Network.

Then, the power of fate flashed across his eyes as he divined the answer he wanted.

“Something will allow me to expand the Soul Network? A Secret Realm that involved numerous Heaven Chosens from other World Communities. Unfortunately, this was all the information he could get.”

So, he calculated the opening time of this Secret Realm and nodded in satisfaction when he realized he still had some time.

‘Is this another manifestation of my luck as a Dao Overlord?’ he thought.

Nevertheless, he did not focus too much on this subject as he was just glad not to have to rely on the Qin Dynasty’s Treasury to get the resources needed; he did not trust the Human Emperor–especially with the recent revelations about him.

Additionally, Wang Wei did not want to open the treasury now. All the Myriad Emperor Worlds sects knew about it, and they knew he had the key to open it: the Human Destiny Sword.

So, it is impossible for the Dao Opening Sect to take all the resources inside for themselves. Otherwise, all these sects will revolt and besiege them together. So, Wang Wei plans to wait after the Heaven Will Battle to open the treasury.

Truth be told, most sects have the same idea as him. To them, the Heaven Will Battle will determine the sword and the treasury’s final owner.

So, after making a preliminary plan, Wang Wei decided to create a few of the Incarnations first. Then, he looked at his wife, who was enthralled in some cheap novel he inscribed from his memories back on Earth.

After shaking his head, he went to his mother again before entering seclusion.

Myriad Emperor World’s Moon, the Ancient Clan’s Small World:

A middle-aged man entered a room while holding a jade talisman that emanated bright light. As he walked deeper into a dark corridor, thousands of bugs scattered because of the light. Furthermore, the deeper the man went, the more bugs there were.

After a few minutes, the middle-aged man reached a large room where he gazed at a person handing by two chains attached to their wrists. The imprisoned person had long hair reaching the floor, tattered clothes, and some of their flesh exposed.

Some parts showed the muscles underneath, while others showed the bones as white as the purest of jade. That person’s stomach had a few holes where their organs could be seen from the outside.

The middle-aged man looked at the person in front of him and sighed before calling: “Young Lady, Young Lady, Young Lady.” Only after the third call that he receives a response.

Huo Fenghuang raised her head to look at this person; her one still-intact eye was cold, indifferent, and extremely calm. Meanwhile, the other one only had the socket with nothing inside.

“The Elder Council has ordered your release.”

She did not immediately respond; instead took a few minutes, “Why the sudden change?” Her voice was hoarser than gravel. After all, she had not spoken for a few thousand years while also having her larynx constantly munched on by these bugs before regenerating.

“Wang Wei recently showed up with the aura of a Dao Overlord.”

Huo Fenghuang squinted her eye as she remembered what occurred almost ten thousand years ago. She used Wang Wei’s danger to justify her action of breaking the clan’s taboo and taking Yi Bu’s White Tiger Bloodline.

At first, things proceeded accordingly. Even though the Yi Clan objected vehemently, the council generally agreed with her approach. Then, someone came into the meeting and whispered something to the Yi Clan Patriarch.

With a sneer, the latter broke the news that Wang Wei was a Supreme Outlaw and would not live long. Then, the council took a quick turn against her, even wanting to abolish her cultivation with some advocating for her execution.

Luckily, her father had a lot of power and used a lot of resources to maintain her life. Nevertheless, she was still imprisoned in this Heaven-forsaken place.

“So, he did survive,” said Huo Fenghuang calmly. She did not use Wang Wei’s name in vain to gain the support of the Council; she picked him because she genuinely believed he was the most threatening to her Emperor Path.

And even after learning about the Outlaw Trial, she argued he would survive and become even more dangerous. Many people felt she was just trying to save her life, but she had an intuition that it would be the case.

The middle-aged man took out another talisman, and after activating it, it removed the chains binding Huo Fenghuang. He then proceeded to give her a bag full of pills.

Without hesitation, she swallowed them. Immediately afterward, all her injuries healed. Her missing muscles, bones, organs, and skins regrew–even her eyes regenerated.

Then, a powerful aura emanated from her body, shaking the entire room and scaring all the bugs. Although she suffered tremendously in the past thousand years, it was also the perfect opportunity to temper her fleshly body and Willpower.

“So, what happens next?” asked Huo Fenghuang.

“During your absence, a new Heaven Chosen took your Heaven Chosen position.”

“Who was it?”

“Xuanwu Qiubai.”

“Him? From what I remember, his black tortoise bloodline was mediocre at best?”

“After your capture, he had a fortunate encounter that purified his bloodline, and he acquired the Qilin Bloodline.”

Huo Fenghuang immediately sneered at such a coincidence. “I’m guessing the Elder Council wants us to fight, and the final winner can absorb the other’s bloodline?”

The middle-aged man nodded his head but did not comment, so Huo Fenghuang ignored him as she pondered. As long as she absorbed Xuanwu Qiubai, she will have all five Sacred Beasts’ bloodlines as she wanted to.

By then, she can cultivate the Dao of Immortal Flame (Phoenix), Dao of Slaughter

/Killing(White Tiger), Dao of Yin-Yang (Black Tortoise), and Dao of Sovereign Water(Azure Dragon), and the Dao of Fortune

/Luck(Qilin).

Moreover, each of these bloodlines will grant her fleshly body an incredible boost; she could see that she would enter the True Dao Realm after absorbing all of them and even reach the first or second layer, and maybe even the third.

‘The only downside is the dragon bloodline I got from that Secret Realm was only an ordinary Water Dragon. I need something else to sublimate to the Azure Dragon Bloodline.’

Unfortunately, there is no Ancient Clan with that bloodline, and the ones with dragon bloodlines are only ordinary.

“What realm is he in now?” asked Huo Fenghuang.

“Young Master Xuanwu has just entered the Law Comprehension Realm.”

“Do I have to fight him now?”

“No, the Council has stated you can use the Time Secret Realm to catch up before your battle.”

Huo Fenghuang nodded. Although she looked perfectly fine, this was only on the surface. She could feel many hidden dangers in her fleshly body, so she wanted to take some time to recuperate.

Additionally, even though she was confident to fight across realm to defeat Xuanwu Qiubai, there was no point in taking such risks. In the same realm, she feared no one.

“Alright, let’s go.”

Huo Fenghuang walked out of prison, her body exuding immense confidence.
