Wang Wei knew that his increase in strength would make his application of his Fate Dao easier, but not to the extent. Adding the fact that his affinity with Fate has recently diminished, his usage of the River of Ti should never be this smooth.
’Let’s retreat first.’
However, as soon as he had this thought, a magic circle appeared above his head. ’No, this is a trap,’ he thought. Sadly, it was too late. Using his mind as a connection, a terrifying power forcefully pulled his body from the court into the River of Ti. Wang Wei was decisive, and at the last minute, he summoned the artifact, which turned into a black armor that protected his soul. Then, he abandoned his body and allowed only his soul to be pulled.
Wang Wei found himself in a world of strings, but they were not the grey or silver-white strings of fate that he was used to, but dark strings with an eerie aura that creeped him out. "A seal? No, they don’t just want to seal , but ruin my Dao." These strings contained the power of fate, but they also had a corrupting aspect.
For now, he was safe because of the Saint Artifact, but it was only a matter of ti before his soul could no longer support its utilization. Then, the only fate waiting for him, even if he escaped, is being ruined. Wang Wei clenched his hands and punched. A terrifying force spread to every corner of this world, trying to annihilate everything, but it was of no use.
Wang Wei did not give up imdiately. Instead, he employed a technique he had recently developed: My Heart is Above Heaven and Earth. A terrifying power that ignored all the rules and order of the universe shook the seal, but beside a slight tremor, nothing changed.
"It’s indeed a Saint-Tier Seal," Wang Wei muttered. "This Fate Lord must have beco these people’s boogeyman for them to go to such extres." There was no plan in complaining about his alternate self affecting his life. The current priority should be how to escape. The two attacks have further drained his soul stamina, aning he has less ti to find an escape plan.
Nurous thoughts flashed in his mind. "The Saint Dao Heart is not working, and while I would love to wait for Maitreya to co rescue , I doubt she will arrive in ti." For such a ticulous plan, the enemy should have taken into account the Saint’s intervention.
’But that’s not all bad news. I bet they didn’t take into account my Saint Dao Heart, the artifact, and the Saint Scroll. Those are my chances.’
Wang Wei’s soul, surrounded by black armor, sat in the void, analyzing the situation while strategizing his escape. ’In my current predicant, the only way to escape is to use Saint Tier power, but I’m completely isolated, aning I can’t use my Saint Art. The armor is not yet at that level, and I still need it to protect myself. So, what else can I do? Huh? Saint Tier power? I have another one of those."
A smirk flashed in Wang Wei’s face as he thought of sothing. "If this goes well, I may even have so benefits." His joy only lasted a few seconds before he regained his composure. While his plan had a decent chance of success, it also had the potential to backfire.
’Now is not the ti to hesitate.’ He closed his eyes and imdiately started.
Heavenly Court:
Maitreye appeared next to Wang Wei’s body and checked his body. Her eyes shifted to the Eternal Ascension World’s branch of the River of Fate and saw a terrifying seal. Without hesitation, a colossal golden palm reached out, but another tal hand blocked the Buddha’s Reach.
Maitreya briefly looked in the distance before uttering: "Shenghuovi." Sothing flashed next to her, revealing soone else.
"Are you sure you want to use my help for him?" The Life Chaos Demon God asked. According to their agreent, she will only intervene a select number of tis.
"Ti is of the essence."
"Very well," Shenghuovi nodded. Her aura suddenly changed, and Heaven and Earth seed to bow to her re presence. Over the years, using the court’s resources, her injury has been significantly alleviated to the point that she can temporarily use the power of Saint. The two entered the River of Fate and imdiately attacked the seal.
Boom!
This should have been the end of this incident, but sothing blocked their attacks. "Brother Fusan, why are you here?"
"Sa as you," the Fla Chaos Demon God replied.
"Do you understand these invaders are maggots trying to suck the life out of the beautiful creation that Mother made?"
"Beautiful creation? You think this universe is full of these lowly creatures that act only in their own interest, is beautiful?" Fusan sneered. "The fact that she threw us away is already disgusting, but she did it only to allow these dirty things to rule over us? How absurd."
"While they indeed rely on their base instinct, under our guidance, they can still live a beautiful and prosperous life."
"You may believe this, but I don’t."
Shenghuovi sighed, "Big Brother Hundunxi always said you were too extre. I never agreed, but now, I understand."
"What does he know? Had he done his job correctly as a brother, we probably would never have been in this situation."
"You can’t–
"I don’t have ti for your family drama," Maitreya calmly said. Her patience for these outdated creatures had run out. "We’ve co to save soone, so let’s do that."
"Such arrogance," Fusan scoffed. However, Maitreya ignored him and attacked the seal. She did not fight the tal Saint, but focused on the seal, forcing the enemy into a defensive war. After all, any decent general understood that attacking was easier than defending.
"My apology, Brother Fusan, but I gave the court my words," Shenghuovi stated. "Plus, I can’t bear to see you continue on such a wrong path."
"Anyone who blocks my path will be turned into ash," Fusan replied. The two started attacking, but despite their harsh words, none of them revealed their true form. These two brothers and sisters knew that once things reached this point, it was a battle of life and death, but they would never do such a thing for these humans.
Wang Wei’s avatar — who was in the middle of upgrading the Saint Art based on Maitreya’s suggestion — suddenly opened his eyes after sensing the current state of his true self. He looked in the distance while muttering, "I haven’t even started the expedition, and the luck backlash has already started." He was now even more convinced that one of his Ti Nexus would occur during that trip.
"Why is my life so hard?" Wang Wei complained before teleporting from the court, heading directly back to the sect. As soon as he arrived, he used his status as an ancestor to summon the sect’s Qi Luck Dragon, which alard many people.
"Sothing crucial happened, and I’ll explain later," Wang Wei spread through his divine sense.
"Do you need help?" Li ng asked.
"I’ll ask if I do."
Wang Wei fused the scroll with the Qi Luck Dragon, along with the Saint Luck he received, instantly initiating a transformation. A transparent crown manifested on top of the Dragon’s head, along with nurous tiny characters embedded in every inch of the creature’s scale. The dragon roared, releasing an invisible power that spread to every corner of the sect.
Everybody — from the ancestors down to the lowest disciples — felt a strange and indescribable change. No one could truly express what this change was, but they suddenly had hope for a brighter future. Then, countless auras spread to every corner of the sect, followed by tribulation clouds. Hundreds of thousands of Mortal Disciples suddenly had an epiphany and had a cultivation breakthrough. The elders acted swiftly to send these people to a designated area to prevent the tribulations from causing trouble. They followed up by also retreating.
Wang Wei was not too surprised. With the Transcendent Luck and the first Saint Scroll of the Eternal Ascension World as a Luck Condensing Artifact, everybody in the sect will receive so benefit. Even soone such as Wang Chang — who was on the verge of mastering his last Grand Construct — will probably use this opportunity to do so. However, his focus remained on saving his original self.
After the scroll dissipated and all its content was written on the Qi Luck Dragon’s scale, he sat cross-legged in the void before absorbing the dragon into his body. While he might be able to sacrifice a significant portion of the sect’s luck for a Saint Tier attack, there was no guarantee it could penetrate the sea.
The avatar itself cannot use the Saint Art, so that left him with only one thing he could do: contact the original body and map out an escape plan. The seal is preventing direct communication, so he’ll use another thod using their [Existence].
