Chapter 1295 First Meeting
He would need to open the Gate of Flesh to bear its power, but doing so would contradict his desire to enter the Battle Taboo Realm. "So, what do you think?" Mongke asked.
"You\'re missing the crux of entering the Battle Realm," Wang Wei said, thinking how to explain his thoughts best.
"From the Emperor to the Paragon Realm, a cultivator will experience three extreme life transitions, each more potent than the other. The difference between the second (Empyrean) and third transition (Paragon) is exceptionally vast, and the process of entering the Battle Taboo Realm is an attempt for a second-transition life form to have the strength of a third transition life form.
"The process does not involve absorbing power or energy from the third transition but expanding the container of the second transition life form without experiencing the third transition."
"Expand the container?" Mongke muttered. "But how to expand it? Simply training the body or the soul won\'t do much since those have limits." He paused as he suddenly thought of something.
"It seems you\'ve figured it out," Wang Wei said.
"[Existence]."
"Exactly," Wang Wei nodded. "What your technique needs is a way for you to add the [Giant] attribute to your [Existence], and in the process, expand your container so that you can absorb the Giant Heart and acquire strength on par with a Paragon."
"I see," Mongke nodded. Now that he had a way forward, Mongke had some confidence in finishing this technique. As a body refiner, it may appear that he knew nothing about [Existence], but that was far from the truth. After opening the Gate of Power, all True Power Dao Realm cultivators will have the characteristic [Indestructible] added to their [Existence]. In the process, they also gain some understanding of this thing. With this foundation, Mongke now had a direction to work toward.
"Thank you very much."
"No problem," Wang Wei nodded. He could see that Mongke was excited to explore this new idea, so he dismissed him. However, Wang Wei did not grant him any of his experiences of achieving taboo. It was not because the Perfect Foundation was too valuable; he could have separated some of the parts pertaining to Mongke from that technique to share them with him.
Wang Wei was also not jealous or fearful that Mongke would grow more powerful than him. He did so only because he wanted to test the Barbarian Clan\'s foundation. The only way for Mongke to complete this technique is to gain access to some deep and rare knowledge about [Existence], so he must contact his clan. Based on the result, Wang Wei will have a fairer analysis of this top lineage\'s ability and judge their values as a future ally.
Wang Wei was confident he would achieve Half-Step Transcendent, meaning the Dao Opening Sect would become a Transcendent Lineage. Eventually, he will have to judge his allies and enemies based on whether they can keep up with him or will be sidelined or, worse, become useless.
"Don\'t become too obsessed with this technique and forget to cultivate," Wang Wei warned the departing Mongke. The future leader of the Barbarian Clan had reached the 10th Heaven of the Adult Fiendgod Realm, but his Will-Body Fusion was only advanced and not perfected. Wang Wei did not want him to neglect his cultivation and be distracted.
"I won\'t," Mongke said from a distance.
…
Time passed, and a week later, Wang Wei met with Wang Qi again. The negotiation with the professionals finally ended, and it was time for Wang Wei to sign the contract. He looked at the results and nodded. The overall conditions met and exceeded his expectations, except for the duration.
"A thousand yuan epoch," Wang Wei muttered. "I knew it would be little, but not so little."
"I tried my best, but these people were adamant about not being restricted for too long," Wang Qi said. Wang Wei pondered. "You said they all wanted a few million years as a vacation before starting to work?"
"Yes."
"Good," Wang Wei sneered. "I\'ll change their fate to have bad luck during the vacation. They should then understand how cruel the world has become."
"Wouldn\'t that be too obvious?" Wang Qi asked. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"You\'re underestimating me," Wang Wei replied. Things will happen inconspicuously and naturally since he\'ll be using his Fate Dao. Plus, he won\'t do it to all of them so as not to raise eyebrows. On the contrary, he\'ll grant blessings to some of them.
The ones with bad luck will realize the need for a towering tree to protect them, while the ones with good luck will be weary of suffering the same fate as their counterparts.
"That\'s fine," Wang Qi nodded. "What about the people who refused to join?" Not all the professionals agreed to work for them. In fact, a significant number of them wanted their freedom at all costs. "Leave them be." Wang Wei will also give them the same treatment, but he won\'t do anything extra. His goal is to get these people to change their minds. If they don\'t, it won\'t affect him that much.
Wang Wei signed the contract. Then, he held a banquet for these professionals, living up to his words of treating them with respect and dignity. Once that was done, Wang Wei was free since Red Mask was still organizing the documents. Wang Wei stood in his room, looking into the distance. "Some things must be faced head-on," he muttered before drawing a talisman in the air that broke the void. He received a response a few minutes later, so he changed his clothes into a more regal purple and gold robe with a black crown that tied his hair and a white belt around his waist. Once he was ready, he created a portal before him and waited until he felt it was connected on the other side before walking through it. As he walked through the door, he saw a beautiful woman dressed in a simple white dress. There was nothing extravagant about this dress, not even any accessories except for a silver ring on her right index finger, but such simplicity perfectly matched her beauty. Her long black hair dripped down her back; the contrast with her white clothes made her appear as the embodiment of Yin and Yang.
Wang Wei was momentarily lost in her eyes. Wu Hong had worn white dresses before, but her aura was completely different than now. It was hard for her to hide her domineering presence, so even when she chose an aesthetic of purity, there was always a subtle hint of power and nobility. However, today, Wang Wei saw her in the ultimate form of purity.
"I wonder, who do you see?" Xun Junyao asked in her soft and angelic voice.
Wang Wei finally woke up and honestly looked at her. "It seems this question is very important to you."
"It is," Xun Junyao answered honestly. With this brief exchange, Wang Wei figured out plenty about what kind of person she was. So, he sighed and replied: "I\'m afraid you\'ll be disappointed."
Xun Junyao frowned: "You have someone else in your heart?"
"I do."
"That is indeed disappointing." She did not fall in love with Wang Wei at first sight. She\'d been looking forward to their meeting because she hoped that the person fate chose as her partner might be able to see her true face. All her life, Xun Junyao has been a faceless woman, and she wished for nothing more than for that to change.
"Come, have a seat, and let\'s have a proper chat," Xun Junyao said. She still had some hope that maybe he could still help her. She led Wang Wei to a pavilion nearby. Wang Wei recognized this place was similar to the one Xiao Tiandi invited him, with the lake, flowers, spirits, and rainbows. As they sat opposite each other with a table in between, Xun Junyao served tea.
Wang Wei took a sip and said: "I don\'t want to have any misconceptions between us, so I want to make things clear. I come to break off the cause and effect between us."
"Is that so?" Xun Junyao nodded, slightly surprised. In the past week, she used her terrible spy network to find people from the lower dimension and get as much information about Wang Wei as possible. As such, she knew he remained loyal to his wife despite achieving unprecedented power and status in the lower dimension.
She calculated that this might be one of his reactions after meeting her — especially after knowing that Wang Wei\'s wife might be related to Empress Wu. Her surprise originated from the fact that he had no hesitation after seeing her.
