After this intense battle, many people could not help but look at these two with horror–especially Di Tian. Most people thought he had ceased to be a viable candidate for the throne. But after disappearing for more than a hundred thousand years, he showed up to declare the throne was his, and only one other person may stop him.
At this point, they all have the sa thoughts: do whatever is necessary to get rid of the two. It could be poison, alliance, formation, or assassination. So daring one even thought about breaking the Immortal-Avenue Pact and asking their faction to send so of their Immortal Ancestors to get rid of these people.
Di Tian calmly looked at everyone's reaction and guessed their thoughts and planning for the future. 'I need a powerful general.' He foresaw the possibility that the battle between him and Wang Wei might be very close. And such a battle, anything could tilt the result.
He did not care for these people's alliance and used canon fodder to try to kill him. However, if he has to spend ti dealing with them, it would an his Origin Essence, Spiritual Power, and stamina are not at their peak. And in a battle of such magnitude, the slightest difference could an losing. So, he needed soone to deal with these people and ensure he remained in peak shape.
Of course, he was not the only one who ca to this conclusion. Wang Wei predicted this possible outco long ago. Hence the reason he wanted Li Jun to reach Immortal Venerable strength.
'You know what to do, right?'
'Don't worry,' replied Li Jun. 'None of them will touch a hair on you. You will be in perfect shape before you fight him.'
'What about you?" asked Wang Wei.
'I've practiced the secret technique you gave ,' replied Tie Gang. 'With Yan Liling's pills, I can pay a certain price to achieve Immortal Strength.'
'Very well.'
Wang Wei nodded before continuing his observation of everyone present. Chen Chen from the Origin Weapon Mountain was not here, but he was not surprised since his Fate Shadow Guard told him of his departure.
Xu Shi is also absent. However, he did not have any information on the latter. He knew the Academy had a plan to deal with her obsession with Lin Fan. Unfortunately, only the headmaster and a few people knew of the plan and its outco. And the Academy has kept its mouth shut on her fate.
Regardless, their people were here to acquire a token for her.
Besides Tong Ruobing and the Origin Weapon Mountain, the people from the other main profession factions did not show up. Wang Wei expected Lou Cheng from the Origin Pill Dao Sect to suddenly rise after the inheritance of the Fla Emperor. As for Wu Ming from the Origin Rune Palace, he guessed this guy was probably trying to destroy the faction from the inside.
Xiao Songxi was giving him a complex look. After a quick analysis, he could guess the reason. The Star Sage Bloodline of the Baishe Clan told him how to win this generation's Heaven Will Battle. And the answer is simple if you think carefully: kill him and Di Tian or cultivate the Nine Extremity Foundation.
Killing them would require an almost impossible elaborate plan or breaking the Immortal-Avenue Pact and asking an Insurgent to take action. However, such an act would have political ramifications that would lead to the destruction of the Baishe Clan. So, Xiao Songxi is bitter since he knows his chances are slim to none.
Wang Wei then focused on Yi Lianxing, Heaven Chosen from the Deep Squid Race that called himself the Abyss Squid. He was one of the people who remained standing beside Tong Ruobing and the others.
'This guy gives a creepy vibe and a dangerously family aura that I cannot completely identify. I should place him on my killing list.' Wang Wei calculated he could probably kill one or two more people before affecting his Era Son Title. And he is pondering using it on Yi Lianxing as his intuition told him this man had a secret that could beco a variable in the upcoming battle.
'Let's observe for a while.' He did not want to rush into sothing and die because of the unknown; he was not stupid or cocky because of his strength.
Wang Wei looked at Ao Shen and frowned. He sensed a powerful treasure that hid the latter's real body. Nevertheless, he felt so sense of familiarity with his aura.
'Where did the Demon Race find such a treasure? And where did they get such a powerful Heaven Chosen?' The Sleepers or the Fate Shadow Guard have not infiltrated the core of the demon race.
Countless thoughts flashed inside his mind as he pondered the information he had. He rembered reading about a secret project of the Demon Race ages ago to create the ultimate bloodline.
'Ultimate Bloodline? Atavism? Did they want to create an Innate creature? Or maybe a creature that contains all the demon race's bloodline? That would be interesting.'
He moved his eyes, making everybody's heart skip a beat. Every ti he focused on soone, everyone else beca tense and worried they would suffer the sa fate as Yu Zhou.
Wang Wei glanced at Yang Guowei from the Yang Family before moving his eyes. Then, he sensed so tension between Jingwu Hua and Ao Shen. While he observed things, soone walked toward him.
It was a man with grey skin and yellow eyes. Wang Wei recognized him since he was one of the few who stood next to Li Jun and the other top Heaven Chosens.
"You're Wang Chong's descendant, aren't you?"
"And you are?"
"Yin Gen from the Body Dao Cave."
Wang Wei frowned. He knew about the Body Dao Cave since they were an Emperor Lineage that dated back to the Ancient Emperor Era with 4 Great Emperors. The founder of that lineage was a body-refining fanatic and was the first pure Body Refiner who proved the Dao in that era.
He called himself the Body Ancestor and wanted to spread a complintary Body Refining Technique to the Origin System. Unfortunately, body refining was too painful, arduous, and required too many resources. Most cultivators were satisfied with the minimum tempering they had to do for the Origin System, resulting in his dream being crushed.
Over ti, the Body Dao Cave beca the place with the best Body Refining Techniques. Well, maybe not the best, but they have the most extensive collection and the most variety.
"Yin Gen? Where have I heard this na?" said Wang Wei, who took a mont to rember. "You're the man who lost to my ancestor, Ancient Desolate." He rembered reading about Ancient Desolate's greatest competitor after the Buddhist Emperor removed his Karma for him.
"I did not lose to him. Back then, my Heavenly Zombie Art was not completed yet."
"Whatever helps you sleep at night. So, what do you want with ?"
Yin Gen's mouth twitched slightly as he understood how easily this kid could get under people's skin. Nevertheless, he refused to argue with a junior.
"I have so conflict with your family."
"I can guess as much."
"What a rude brat," he muttered. "I have accepted my loss to Wang Chong. But tell why, after I woke up from my seal, I learned the [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scripture] is known as the most powerful body refining scripture. And the reason for such a title is that it grants the cultivator the ability to fight Great Emperors in the Quasi-Emperor Realm. What a load of bullshit."
He only lost to Wang Chong because he did not finish his Heavenly Zombie Art. But now, after sealing himself in a Yin Grotto Heaven for countless eras, he not only managed to temper his Will to a high level but also perfected his technique.
"It is indeed bullshit. But what can I say? So things, people, and events are mythified due to ti."
"Brat, are you saying Wang Chong did not spread these lies?"
"Quite the accusations, Lord Yin Gen," said Wang Wei with squinted eyes. "Does your Body Dao Cave have proof? Otherwise, you're defaming one of our ancestors. And our sect will not take lightly to false accusations."
Yin Gen's yellow eyes shone. "Kid, I'm not here for a war of tongues. I only care about proving I'm the best with body refining."
"Alright. Let's settle this." Wang Wei raised his hand, and Yin Gen followed. They grasped each other's hands before squeezing. They controlled their strength to prevent affecting the surroundings.
Bang!
A few seconds later, Yin Gen's hand exploded, and he looked on in shock. He did not say anything and walked away. 'There is still a chance,' he thought.
'How is it?' asked Li Jun.
'54 Primordial Dragon Force, peak 5-leaf, and room for growth?'
Li Jun squinted his eyes. 'It seems I have work cut out for .'
Before everyone could process the situation, a vision occurred above the red Gate in the middle of the Domain: Heavenly Dao finally appeared.
