Chapter 898 [Existence Manipulation]
Tong Ruobing looked puzzled; she could not think how they could continue cooperating, so Wang Wei explained.
"Do you think it will be easy for Mu Lei to establish a Heavenly Court?" said Wang Wei. "According to my analysis of him, he should have changed his path after the Deception Trial, walking the path of Body Refining and Qi Refining.
"However, with the talent displayed, even with some fortunate encounter, he would barely become an Eternal Supreme."
Tong Ruobing was quiet as the latter was correct. Based on their conversation, she knew Mu Lei's power could barely reach 25% Grand Dao Source after [Awakening], using his Dao Will, Soul, Body, and even secret technique.
"I know he has potential, especially in the body-refining path, and his strength would have been higher had he walked the True Power Dao Realm. However, I guess he was worried about the issue of lifespan," continued Wang Wei, and yet again, he was correct.
Mu Lei did not want to take the chance he could eventually open the Gate of Power, so he did not walk the pure body refining path.
"Your majesty, what are you getting at?" asked Tong Ruobing directly.
"The Star Beast World is different from the Myriad Emperor World,"
explained Wang Wei. "It is not a world in decline. On the contrary, because of their unique cultivation system, their world has connections and relationships to hundreds of other Heaven Will Worlds and Communities.
"Can you imagine how many Immortal Tier powerhouse such a world has? How many Immortal Sovereigns are secretly hiding?"
Tong Ruobing's face became solemn.
"Even if Heavenly Dao schemes against these Sovereigns to prevent them from remaining in the Lower Dimension, I guarantee they will have more than the three we have.
"So, do you think Mu Lei can easily dominate Heaven and Earth in such a powerful world?" continued Wang Wei with a sneer.
"Using your cunningness to help him, you can use diplomatic means to form many allies in this court using God Positions as bargaining chips. However, some people will only use force, so how will he deal with them?"
"So, you're offering your help?" asked Tong Ruobing.
"Yes. If he pays me the merit and luck necessary, I will help him deal with his enemy. I can even hide my identity to prevent any complications."
No cultivators wished for other worlds to intervene in their internal affairs, so Wang Wei did not mind hiding his identity to prevent complications for Mu Lei.
'I should probably hide my identity too in the early stages,' thought Tong Ruobing.
"So, what do you say?" asked Wang Wei.
"I don't have a problem with this deal. However, I'll have to discuss everything with him before we make any final decisions."
"That's fine," nodded Wang Wei. "I can send you there. Do you want my help or do you want to go by yourself? Don't worry; this is a free service."
Tong Ruobing's first instinct was to reject such an offer. Her sect has artifacts that can travel in the Endless Void. However, she suddenly thought it was an excellent opportunity to test the power of the Heavenly Emperor.
"Thank you, your Majesty. However, I still need a few minutes to prepare before my departure."
"That's fine. After you finish, you only need to utter my name, and I will send you to your destination."
She opened her mouth to thank him before saying something else entirely: "Which name?"
"Anyone is fine," replied Wang Wei as he waved his hand, teleporting her back to her city.
"What a clever little imp," he muttered. The Heavenly Court and the position of Heavenly Emperor have many layers of meaning for their existence. One of which is Wang Wei's attempt to cheat the system; of course, according to him, it's just an application of [Existence].
He knew the importance of names and titles. So, after creating the court, he will ensure all documents and word of mouth contain his two names: Fate Dominating Emperor and Heavenly Emperor.
His attempt involves the paradox that he is the Heavenly Emperor, but at the same time, he is not. If one day, someone could erase him from existence, meaning the word [Fate Dominating Emperor] was no longer in the annals of history, people would only know there was a first Heavenly Emperor but could not remember who he was and what he accomplished.
They might not even know he created the court.
That's when Wang Wei's scheme comes into play. Even if he is erased from history, could he revive himself using the name Heavenly Emperor?
In other words, he is trying to incorporate the name [Heavenly Emperor] into his [Existence]. If someone wants to kill him in the future, they would have to erase an entire era of history because he will always exist as long as the name or title of Heavenly Emperor exists.
Wang Wei's plan has not succeeded yet, but he will try his best.
However, some clever people like Tong Ruobing already began to suspect something.
It's to be expected since Wang Wei's actions are suspicious. Most Eternal Emperors would ensure their names resonate between Heaven and Earth. After all, the more impact they have in the world, the more their names are remembered, the harder they are to kill.
However, after proving the Dao, people kept referring to Wang Wei as the Heavenly Emperor instead of the Fate Dominating Emperor.
Such an act is suspicious.
'It doesn't matter if you guys suspect anything,' thought Wang Wei.
'I control the fate of this world. So, I only need to nudge things a little, and your perception of the truth will be twisted. After a while, none of you will ever have this idea again. Better yet, you won't ever think this was my plan.'
Wang Wei secretly shook his head, thinking how ridiculously powerful he had become compared to the Lower Dimension. Of course, he was not prideful because he had met the people who reached the pinnacle of the Chaos Universe, so he understood how small his current power was.
He waited for a while before receiving Tong Ruobing's signal. With a snap of his finger, she disappeared from the world.
Star Beast Community:
Tong Ruobing and his team of five appeared in a desolate and empty location. She looked around and only noticed void energy that could kill Void Shattering Realm cultivators if they were not careful.
In the distance, she saw something that looked like a shining egg, as if the stars could reflect on the egg's shell.
'The Star Beast World? We are already here?'
Supreme True Monarchs and Quasi-Emperors can freely travel in the Endless Void, not to mention the Great Emperor. However, even an Eternal Emperor with Space Grand Dao Source can teleport them so far away and so effortlessly.
There is a Void Barrier between each Community, making traversing each one extremely troublesome even for Great Emperors.
'Is this the extent of his power? Could he have easily teleported me directly into the Star Beast World without any problem?'
Such a thought was scary as it meant no world was safe under this man's grasp. Furthermore, his tentacles might soon spread throughout the entire Lower Dimension.
Tong Ruobing took a deep breath to calm down. Her companions did the same as they reached a similar conclusion. She was prepared to contact Mu Lei and not directly enter the world.
However, she discovered a talisman in her hand, along with a message. Then, a wry smile appeared on her face. The talisman contained Wang Wei's power. However, she knew the purpose of receiving this thing: a display of strength to Mu Lei.
'I need to prove the Dao as soon as possible and use whatever means necessary.'
She has always been ambitious, knowing the importance of strength and power. However, recent events have further reinforced these ideas. Tong Ruobing understood the Lower Dimension was
experiencing a terrifying change.
Without power, she will only become a passerby or, even worse, die in irrelevance. However, she refused to accept such a fate. As such, she will do whatever is necessary to rise to the top, participate in this new era, and leave her own legend.
She took a deep breath before sending a message to Mu Lei.
Myriad Emperor World, Heavenly Court:
Wang Wei's eyes looked in the distance; the concepts of distance and space were nothing but molded sand to him.
'As long as more Eternals from different factions appear in the world, the Balance Mechanism will not be as strict or severe on the Dao Opening Sect,' he thought.
He had to prepare for the future; otherwise, his sect might suffer under the constant schemes of Heavenly Dao. Even if the sect completely controls Heavenly Dao, they cannot escape the situation.
On the contrary, it will become worse as True Heavenly Dao might be forced to intervene.
'Furthermore, I will need many generals and lieutenants to get rid of the eight parasites as quickly as possible. This generation's geniuses are people of unparalleled talent, luck, and Dao Heart; it would be a waste not to utilize them.'
His eyes seemed to scan the entire world.
'It's a shame for Mo Xingyun. She was on the list to be trafficked.'
Wang Wei already knew the devilish girl entered Samsara, trying to cultivate the Nine Extremity Foundation.
'Alright, I will help you hide your karma. If you succeed, don't forget you owe me a great karmic debt.'
He waved his hand to send a seal to Mo Xingyun's soul in reincarnation. The devil girl tried to hide her negative karma to ensure her reincarnation had no issue.
However, Wang Wei could tell her methods were shoddy and would soon be discovered.
He removed his eyes from reincarnation, focusing on the world. All the pawns and chess players have been set, so he only needs to wait for the results. Then, he will start the next game.
'There should be a short period of chaos, but that's to be expected,'
thought Wang Wei. 'Alright, let's wait for our guest.'
He slowly walked to the reception room and brewed tea. As expected, a guest arrived at the court a few hours later.
