Hearing his words with a panicked tone of voice, Tian Yongheng decided to probe further.
"What do you an by your master entering the Righteous-Demonic War? Is he the supposedly strongest Tribulation Transcendence Realm in the world that you were talking about that day?"
"Yes, senior. He’s ordered to go to the Eastern Continent to collect information on both the Righteous-Demonic War and the Eternal Peak, which is why I wanted to inform you of this. It seems my master is wary of you. I’ll set off from here in the next couple of years."
Wei Yusheng replied from the other side.
He wants information on my Eternal Peak, or rather, myself?
Tian Yongheng couldn’t help but question inwardly before asking, "Does that an other high ranked experts of the demonic path are coming with him as well?"
"I don’t know much about that, senior...but I’m sure that if sothing happens to my master, the demonic path won’t sit still and the Demon Race would surely support them. At that ti will the strongest experts from both sides enter the war."
Wei Yusheng’s voice was laced with a hint of solemnity as he said that.
He, as a re Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, wasn’t worth ntioning the Great powerhouses of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm and the Immortal Ascension Realm, not to ntion those illusory experts beyond the Immortal Ascension Realm he had once heard about.
He wanted freedom, but he didn’t want to die just to achieve it.
On the other hand, Tian Yongheng also understood the gravity of the situation and pondered.
Strongest experts of the demonic path and the Demon Race...Half Immortals.
Even if I can possibly already compete with most of the Half Immortals in the world right now, it doesn’t an they don’t possess any hidden trump cards. I need to be careful and cultivate in peace till I reach the Half Immortal Realm myself.
At worst, I’ll just call back all my people wandering in the outside world and hide in the Dao Field, which even an Immortal probably won’t be able to break into.
As for that Sword Lord of the Darkest Night, he won’t be so stupid as to co and look for trouble with directly without figuring out my abilities. Even though I already am far stronger than him, it’s better to surpass him in cultivation base first, lest he has so trump cards that can potentially kill .
He nodded his head to himself as he thought this through before paying attention to the Communication Jade.
"I understand. You don’t need to co look for , just search around and you’ll find all you need to know about and then give that information to your master."
He said calmly.
He didn’t really care about what or how much others knew about him. It was because he always concealed his true strength.
The outside world would still at most think of him as an Immortal Ascension Realm mighty figure, while his true strength had far surpassed that point.
"I’ll do as the senior says."
With that, Wei Yusheng finally cut the connection of the Communication Jade, leaving Tian Yongheng to ponder on his own.
This is...threatening. If the supre experts of both the demonic path and the Demon Race take action, then the supre existences of the righteous path won’t sit still.
Their collision may very well plunge the entire world into chaos, and even the Eternal Peak might not be spared. Even if they can’t do anything to or my Dao Field, those who are still outside are vulnerable.
Should I just call all of them back?
As this thought crossed his mind, he quickly shook his head in denial.
No. They need to gain experience as well. Most of them are Chosen Ones, so they won’t die easily. As for Mo Yuxin, she’s with Lu Qingfeng right now, so her chances of dying are extrely low as well.
All I need to do now is to continue cultivating and getting stronger. Only then will I be able to stand among the powers that dictate the state of the world and hold my ground.
In other words, I need to reach the Half Immortal Realm as quickly as possible, and to do that, I need to reach the Immortal Ascension Realm!
With a newfound determination, Tian Yongheng slowly closed his eyes and took on a ditative stance before he began to ponder the Heavenly Questions as the Immortal Spirit Stone’s Immortal Qi began surging towards him.
First of all, I need to attain the Seventh Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm!
...
2 years later.
A huge, invisible flying ship shuttled through the air, piercing through the wind and Spirit Qi alike.
Inside of the flying ship, Wei Yusheng sat cross-legged as he focused on comprehending the heavenly rules of the world and cultivated.
The surrounding Spirit Qi transford into Demonic Qi upon coming close to his body before entering it, then got refined into Demonic Energy into his Sea of Consciousness.
This was because of the cultivation technique he was cultivating, which didn’t need the blood of mortals or the sacrifice of a thousand children to cultivate despite being a demonic cultivation technique.
In fact, those thods were extrely rare even in the demonic path. It was just because of their bad reputation that everything related to such evil arts was associated with every demonic cultivator and the entire demonic path as a whole.
Most demonic cultivators cultivated using cultivation techniques like Wei Yusheng’s, and only so insane ones or those with urgent need of sothing did extre things.
After all, indiscriminate evil acts would yield bad karma, which could lead to punishnt from the heavens, stagnation in cultivation, or even worse, destruction in body and soul.
Despite that, it didn’t an that most demonic cultivators were all innocent. Sotis if needed, they would not hesitate to massacre a mortal village.
This was what set cultivators of the righteous path and demonic cultivators apart. If a righteous cultivator committed a heinous act such as killing countless people with no valid reason, then even if he has a great background, other righteous cultivators would still oppose him and rumors would spread about him, leading to a bad reputation, which most cultivators really cared about.
On the other hand, if a demonic cultivator did the sa, no demonic cultivator would oppose him as such. It would only be the righteous path cultivators who would issue orders to kill him, which they would have done even if he was a good person just because he belonged to the demonic path.
All in all, no one was truly good in the cultivation world. Everybody had their own motives and agendas for doing whatever they were. Soone wanted resources, soone wanted status, soone wanted power and whatnot.
After all, most cultivators were beings who had lived for hundreds and thousands of years. Their mindset wasn’t like Tian Yongheng’s, where they only wanted to "live". They wanted to "live good" after already living for thousands of years.
This was the fundantal truth which most lower level cultivators never understood in their entire lifeti.
At this mont, as the flying ship moved forward, Wei Yusheng opened his eyes and let out a soft sigh.
It’s still not enough. Breaking through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm is already a hard task, and epiphanies are difficult to co by. Will I really be able to reach that realm in my life?
He thought as he shook his head helplessly.
He had been unable to breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm for over 500 years since he achieved the peak of Nascent Soul Realm. The heavenly rules were profound, and one needed great comprehension ability to understand them.
Even if he could get a grasp of the heavenly rules, to really breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, it was simply not enough.
Initially, he thought that he could breakthrough on his own without needing anyone’s help, but it was only now did he realize how foolish he was.
I should ask master for help when I go back. That way, I’ll find an excuse to stay out of the war and also be able to find a chance to enter the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
No matter which side wins after the end of the war, I’ll stay hidden till I can’t cultivate anymore! I should be like that senior who, despite being a reincarnated ancient entity and having a cultivation of at least the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, still stays hidden in the Eternal Peak and cultivates all day long! This is the right path to immortality!
As he thought of this, his eyes burned with resolution before he stood up and stepped out of the room, going towards the front of the flying ship. He was the only person on it.
I’ll reach the Eastern Continent in a couple of days at most. In the ongoing Righteous-Demonic War, I should also be able to see the prestige of the great geniuses of the current generation.
At this thought, his eyes flickered with a hint of regret. The thought that he might have been one of the great geniuses of the current generation had his faction not been destroyed lingered in his mind.
He shook his head and put all the unnecessary thoughts aside, looking forward to whatever his new encounters may be in the Eastern Continent.
