Chapter 913 Looking Outside
Primordial Chaos, Red Mist Forbidden Land:
Heavenly Book opened his eyes, "Why do I feel I miss a great opportunity because of some bad karma?" He knew his intuition did not warn him for no reason, so he immediately tried to find the secrets behind his feelings.
However, no matter what method he tried, it proved to be futile.
"Nothing? So, it involves someone on my level that is very good at hiding their tracks, or it's related to someone above my realm."
No matter which is the truth, there was nothing he could do. After all, his hint was too broad, meaning there were too many possibilities as to why he had this kind of intuition.
'If it's related to someone in my realm, I can deduce the reason to a few dozen individuals with whom I have bad karma. If it's someone of a higher grade, then there are only a handful.
'The real question is, what kind of opportunity did I miss?'
Heavenly Book shook his head and focused on his book; he discovered more information.
"Ten-Fold Battle Realm? Well, given his possible achievements, I should not expect any less," commented Heavenly Book. However, his attitude was still nonchalant, and that's because his achievements are even greater than this.
He not only achieved the Ten-Fold Battle Realm but went beyond it.
His battle prowess created a new class never seen beforeâthe Taboo Battle Realm.
So, he did not care about Wang Wei's achievement as he was still not a match for him. Furthermore, it's yet known whether he can keep such battle prowess in the Empyrean and Paragon Realm.
Heavenly Book flipped the pages of the book, reading and analyzing every detail with great concentration. Finally, a frown manifested on his face:
"Why do I feel this Son of Grand Dao is a waste compared to this Wang Wei?"
No matter what he thinks about it, these people's destinies are intertwined, so their achievements should be similar or relative.
However, it appeared not to be the case.
"Maybe the Grand Dao Son is a late bloomer," muttered Heavenly Book. So far, he only has some scattered information on these two up to the Great Emperor Realm. So, there is a chance for them to improve and become stronger.
"No matter the situation, with a title as the [Son of Grand Dao], he should be extraordinary. So, let's not pass quick judgment."
Heavenly Book has always been extremely cautious when doing things despite how arrogant he often appeared on the outside. He always displayed such a facade to trick his opponent into underestimating him.
Heavenly Book looked in the distance.
"It's been so long, and the All-Seeing Temple hasn't finished with their divination yet?'
He once tried to finish the prophecy before them but felt an immense horror. So, Heavenly Book concluded the prophecy might involve the information he learned from his book.
"The universe is about to enter an era of chaos and strife. Based on Qiyuan's actions, the Eternal Ascension World will be involved and might even be at the center.
"Sadly, I cannot use the pawns I left there."
The situation in the Eternal Ascension World made him feel aggrieved. He spent so much time and effort creating a few pawns worldwide. Yet, after Maitreya and Supreme Unity appeared, his pawns became their pawns.
Heavenly Book sighed, knowing he could not help it. Unless he finds a way to hide and survive against Half-Step Transcendence, the situation will not change.
Heavenly Book closed his eyes, prepared to continue waiting; he has clones in different Chaos Worlds doing certain tasks. He only needs to be patient.
However, not even ten seconds after closing his eyes, he opened them again. A talisman appeared before him, and he activated it.
'Death Reverence has appeared?'
Although the news only said signs of his appearance, this news still shocked him. There are a few Paragons that Heavenly Book cannot see through and their secrets, and Death Reverence is at the top of the list.
'Why is he showing up now? No, the current situation is the perfect time for him to appear.'
Without hesitation, Heavenly Book created another clone and sent it to the sighting site of Death Reverence. A lack of information equals unwanted variables, so he wanted to know the whereabouts of Death Reverence.
Eternal Ascension World, Origin Seal Continent:
"What exactly did this kid do?" muttered Sword Empress as she gazed at the Dao Opening Sect's Qi Luck. "Even if he opened a new era, only a few hundred years have passed. How could he have gathered such luck?"
The current Luck feedback from the lower dimension is enough for Qiyuan and someone else to revive. Furthermore, there is a great trend of upward increase.
She remembered the kid discussing with Qiyuan how he was going to change the environment and make many improvements.
However, they could not stay for long, so she did not hear the details. However, now, it appeared the kid had a grand plan with far-reaching consequences.
"It's not just the Dao Opening Sect," said Wu Hong. "The entire destiny of the upper dimension has shown signs of revival."
They knew what those changes meant; it was a signal that the current political situation of the Eternal Ascension World was about to be reshuffled, just like it did when so many Paragons felt during the Ultimate Taboo.
Such a change should be a good thing. The terrible reigns of these eight parasites were coming to an end, and the world could return to its prospering age. There is also a chance they could create an even more prosperous era.
However, the wise individuals knew the eight parasites did not determine whether this reshuffling would occur. No, such an honor went to the two suns.
"Such a change has given Maitreya the edge, but it also means the kid's situation is now more dangerous than ever," added Sword Empress with furrowed brows.
"With Supreme Unity's mindset, he will do everything possible to kill him. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do in this situation."
Wu Hong sighed, not liking how powerless she often was since the end of the Ultimate Taboo. Sword Empress felt the same way but understood there was no point in lingering on the past.
"What benefit did you get?"
"What do you mean?"
"You're married to this kid, so you should benefit from whatever he is doing. I'm curious about what you got."
"Nothing. You should know he was only married to some unknown clone of me."
"With how shameless and thick skin this kid is, do you think he will care?" sneered Sword Empress. "Plus, Heaven and Earth have already acknowledged your union."
"Anyway, I haven't acknowledged it."
"But you also haven't refused."
Wu Hong chose to ignore her. Internal, Wu Hong was cursing out loud as she knew her friend would never let go of the fact her descendant was her husband.
"So, what did you get?"
"Nothing. However, I've recently had a feeling something good was about to happen."
Sword Empress's eyes lit up. At their level, any fortunate encounter that can be described as good is never something simple.
"Don't forget to respect your elders with some gifts afterward."
"The beating I gave you last time was not enough? Do you want some more?"
"Relax, I 'm just kidding," coughed Sword Empress lightly before changing the subject. "Have you noticed Time Eater's erratic movement recently?"
"Yes, he seems in a rush."
"Do you think we should take action? He might be a variable."
"There is no need," replied Wu Hong. "These people were never true allies. Once they detect his anomaly, they might be the first ones to take action. And once one of them acts, it's only a matter of time before the contradictions between them explode."
"You might be right, but something tells me Time Eater will not let things escalate to such an extent. Even if he doesn't act, Supreme Unity won't allow them to disintegrate from the inside."
"Fair point, but I still think our best option is to wait and recuperate as soon as possible."
"Wait? Do you want to wait for the kid?"
"Yes, since it's his destiny to deal with these people, let him deal with it. We can heal and support him if necessary."
"That's fine too," nodded Sword Empress, who guessed many people had similar ideas. Sometimes, it's best to let fate do its work and not interfere.
"It's best if we focus on the future after these parasites are gone."
"Are you talking about the prophecy?" Although it took some time because of the current isolation, they still received the All Seeing Temple's divination.
"Yes. You should understand better than me that if the universe becomes chaotic, we might be at the center of the storm."
Sword Empress grunted with her melodious voice. She knew Qiyuan's action of concentrating most of the luck of the Chaos Universe on the Eternal Ascension World had many advantages as well as many disadvantages.
Unfortunately, they were now in a time when the disadvantage prevailed.
"The chaos is indeed a great danger, but it's also an opportunity,"
muttered Sword Empress, and Wu Hong agreed with her.
