"Di'er, what's wrong with you?" Xun Junyao asked. Ever since they watched that fight, he's been distracted, drastically reducing the efficiency of their hunt.
"That man called Tian Xuan — sothing about him is odd."
"Well, that's obvious."
"No, I an sothing about him has attracted ," Xiao Tiandi explained.
"What do you an?" Xun Junyao still did not understand what he was getting at.
"His physique," Xiao Tiandi explained. "Every ti he used any Daos besides Destruction, I sensed a familiar aura."
"Are you saying he also has the Innate Grand Dao Source Physique?"
"No, that's the issue. His aura was purer."
"Are you sure? All I sensed was the overwhelming power of destruction."
"That's also why I'm questioning my senses," Xiao Tiandi admitted, making his master frown.
"So, why did you bring this up? Do you have sothing planned?"
"I was thinking if I could get my hands on his blood and strip the other powers, maybe I can push my physique to a higher level."
"I sensed an urgency in your voice," she stated, and Xiao Tiandi sighed.
"After watching this battle, I realized it may not be a good thing to rush into the Paragon Realm," he comnted. His cultivation was already 79% in such a short period, aning it wouldn't take long for him to beco a Peak Empyrean. However, after seeing how powerful Tian Xuan and Ji Chengming were, Xiao Tiandi realized that rushing might not be the best choice.
"Hmmm," Xun Junyao uttered. "Do you want to fight him? Honestly, I doubt I would be his match even after becoming a Paragon."
"Not to ntion he's probably related to a transcendent faction," Xiao Tiandi added. Although he did not instantly realize his mories were missing, he could deduce part of the truth.
"Maybe we could team up against him. After all, our objective is to get his blood, not kill him," Xun Junyao suggested. "However, by the ti we both reach his realm, who knows how powerful he'll be by then."
"In that case, we need to use our head instead of our might."
"You want to ask Wang Wei," Xun Junyao realized, not hiding the dissatisfaction in her tone. "I thought you were a staunch opposer to our constant reliance on him."
"It's obvious he's trying to break your love Fate Line by constantly increasing his karma and karmic debt between you two — we might as well take this opportunity since it probably won't last long," Xiao Tiandi shrugged.
"You have a point," she nodded. If Wang Wei did not crack the fate line, their relationship would have beco much more awkward. Fate would make it so that they constantly t by accident, even locking them up in unique dinsions/fortunate encounters so they could get to know each other.
"Alright, you contact him yourself."
"Let's hope he's available," Xiao Tiandi uttered as he used his Communication Talisman.
"Hmm? Did sothing happen?" Wang Wei's projection asked. He had just finished analyzing everything that had happened with Tian Xuan and was about to cultivate.
"I wanted to ask you sothing," Xiao Tiandi started the conversation before explaining observation and objective.
"Oh, you're talking about his Myriad Dao Physique."
"That's what it's called?"
"I don't know, but that's what I call it," Wang Wei admitted. His senses were much higher than those two, so he detected even more information and deduced the rest. According to his analysis, the best Dao for Tian Xuan was Chaos since it would allow him to use all Daos and make him a better vessel for Grand Dao. That's probably why he has the sa physique as Xiao Tiandi and why he elevated it to a higher level.
Tian Xuan's first act of rebellion was choosing Destruction Dao and even morphing his "Myriad Dao Physique" into sothing that could be called "Absolute Destruction Physique." He probably used so excuse that this Dao had the highest attack potency and was sowhat the antithesis of Fate, which is all about control and versatility.
"So, can you help us?"
"If you want his blood, just ask him and exchange sothing of equal value," Wang Wei suggested.
"Sothing of equal value? You an my master's [perfection]?"
"This!" Xiao Tiandi uttered before looking at her.
"Aren't you putting in danger?" Xun Junyao showed her head and asked. Before coming to this place, she made a great effort to hide her perfection. It also helped that Wang Wei's history lock considered her existence one of the world's great secrets and further aided in the hiding process. Now, he was suggested to reveal such information.
"He already knows about you," Wang Wei revealed.
"How? Did you say sothing?"
"And why would I do such a thing?"
"But how did so foreign cultivator know such a secret?" Xun Junyao asked.
"His situation is special, so he knows much about our world and its current state."
"Wait, does that an he could reveal it to other Chaos Worlds?" Xiao Tiandi butted in.
"It's possible, but don't worry about it."
"What do you an don't worry?" he asked before understanding flashed in his eyes. "You've already dealt with it?"
"When would I have the ti to do that?"
"Then you have a plan then?" Xiao Tiandi asked.
"Yes."
"Is this plan reliable?" Wang Wei stared at him.
"Alright, I've spoken too much," Xiao Tiandi backed down.
"Hm? Soone else is contacting ," Wang Wei stated. "Anyway, I've already given you a suggestion. It's up to you whether you follow it or not." The chances of this trade proceeding were exceedingly high. [Perfection] contains so of the secrets or essence of Grand Dao, which is imnsely valuable for Tian Xuan in escaping his shackles.
"One more thing," Wang Wei added. "No matter what, do not directly absorb his blood to improve your physique — even if you purified it a billion tis. And no, I'm not exaggerating here. You can study and recreate his blood conditions to improve yourself but under no circumstances should you directly absorb it."
"Is it that serious?" Xiao Tiandi frowned.
"Let's say it in another way. If you absorb it, you will instantly beco my enemy, and I hunt you down at any cost. I won't care about our previous friendship, nor will I give you ti to grow."
Xiao Tiandi felt a chill down his spine. "Alright, I get it."
"Good." The communication ended, and he looked at his master. "Isn't it being too much?"
"The good news is we can now deduce what kind of relationship these two have," Xun Junyao added.
"True."
. . .
"I'm telling you, our priority is to beco a Paragon," Lin Fan stated. "You saw what happened in that fight. Wang Wei was right — shenanigans have started to appear, so who knows how much ti we have."
"I understand where you are coming from, but what is the point of becoming a Paragon if we are the weakest group," Xu Shi argued.
"Under normal circumstances, you would be right, but this trial is a Heaven-sent opportunity. As long as we take the Fourth or Third Heaven spots, our high cultivation will compensate for the lack of high battle capabilities."
"I don't understand why you're so focused on reaching a higher realm when you know the significance of a deep foundation."
Lin Fan sighed. "Foundation can be made up, but this is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity."
"You don't know if we can make it up or the price to pay to do so."
"And you don't even know how to enter the Taboo Battle Realm," Lin Fan countered. "Speaking of, didn't you see how the teacher did not wait."
"That's because he's under pressure and probably planning sothing," Xu Shi countered. "But with his protection, we can take things slow and prepare for a better future."
Lin Fan opened his mouth before closing them. He exhaled to calm down. "How about we talk to him and get his opinion?"
"Alright."
Soon, they imdiately contacted Emperor Kong and explained the situation.
"I understand where both of you are coming from," Kong nodded.
"So, who do you think is right?"
"You're both right."
"Hmm?"
"Do you know why the Taboo Realm is not common knowledge?"
"Is it because the top lineages hide all information about it?" Lin Fan replied.
"No, that's only a small part," Kong explained. "It's because many people feel it's useless."
"How does that make sense?" Xu Shi asked.
"It does," Lin Fan added. "The ti it takes to research and create a thod to enter that stage might be longer than the ti needed to reach the next realm."
"Exactly," Kong agreed. "And there are no tangible benefits. The ability to fight above your realm is not as valuable as reaching that realm and acquiring that level of strength."
"But Wang Wei has insinuated many tis to that the Taboo Battle Realm will have great benefit in the realm of the Two Suns," Xu Shi added.
"That may be true, but you have to rember that before they appeared, 99.99% of cultivators believed the Paragon Realm was the peak of cultivation. And from what I gathered, even during the Second Origin War, many people did not participate or take the opposing side because they believed Qiyuan was ssing around and his plan was nothing but nonsense."
