Chapter 827 Worldwide Reaction (II)



"What about our Artifacts?" asked the Palace Master.

Element One was momentarily quiet, "I tracked the imprint from them."

"And?"

"They are deep into the Western Pure Land."

The Palace Master groaned, "If that's the case, we might never be able to take them back."

"Feng Heng's goal is easy to guess," uttered Element One. "He wants to use the item to access Taoism's luck. As long as we prevent this from happening, the artifacts will soon become useless in his hand.

"By then, we can pay the necessary price to get them back."

"And if that doesn't work?"

"We will offer a deal with the final winner to recover them. And if that does not work, we will start an Emperor Dao War with the new Buddhist Sect."

No Emperor Lineage can allow their Qi Luck Artifact to flow out, especially when they lost two of them. As such, the Five Element Balance Palace will do whatever is necessary to deal with Feng Heng and his Buddhist Sect.

Di Clan:

Di Cong watched the screen before him, clenching his hands so hard that the power of law fluctuated in the surroundings. He had complete and utter faith in his son, believing nothing and no one between Heaven and Earth could prevent him from proving the Dao in this generation.

His confidence reached an all-time high after learning about how Di Tian had Third Class strength. So, when his son told him Wang Wei was still a competitor to be wary of, he did not take it seriously.

He thought his son was just being careful, which made him appreciate the latter more, as this showed he did not let his newfound strength get to his head.

But now, as he watched Wang Wei display the most basic fire spell and feel its might on par with his son's wind spell, his heart was in turmoil. All his confidence shattered as he was overwhelmed by too many complicated thoughts.

"Old Patriarch, there is no need to worry," said one of the Clan Elders who knew about Di Tian's strength. "The patriarch still has a higher chance of winning.

"Remember what happened when the patriarch reached such a state? There were Heavenly Auspicious Signs. Meanwhile, Wang Wei had divine punishment."

The elder rushed his brain, putting many things together to reassure the Old Patriarch and the other people of the clan.

"Yes, the Great Elder is right. Old Patriarch, there is no need to worry," reassured another Elder.

"You don't understand," said Di Cong, his face calm, but his eyes betrayed his inner turmoil. "Wang Wei is the Son of Era, meaning he has fate, destiny, and luck on his side.

"With the same starting line and strength, his advantage will manifest."

The Elders knew he was correct. And before revealing their strength, most people who knew of Di Tian's real strength did not believe in him to be the final winner because of his lack of destiny.

If the patriarch had an overwhelming advantage in power, then he could easily ignore Wang Wei's destiny as the Son of Era. Unfortunately, the playing field has been leveled, and the slightest difference might give one person an advantage over the other.

"Old Patriarch, what can we do?"

"Di Tian was aware of this, so he should be prepared. The only thing we can do is wait."

Heaven Will Battlefield, Fire Layer:

Feng Heng did not leave after forfeiting; he wanted to watch the battle between them. So, he watched how Di Tian and Wang Wei dealt with the fog, released their aura, and used the Emperor Tier Attack.

'Amitabha,' chanted Feng Heng repeatedly in his mind, trying to calm down. After a few seconds, he barely managed to regain his bearing.

"It is the greatest misfortune of any Heaven Chosen to live in the same generation as those two."

He sighed deeply before choosing to leave. He felt his Dao Heart might be affected if he stayed any longer in this place. Furthermore, his intuition warned him of great danger. So, he asked Heavenly Dao to send him out.

And to his delay, he appeared before the entrance of the Western Pure Land. Without hesitation, he headed into the inner core. He needed to meditate and calm down before using the Heart of Hope.

His current state was not the best to prove the Dao.

Ancient Clan:

A meeting occurred amongst a few of the Insurgent of the Ancient Clan; to be precise, the clans who knew about the actual plan of the Ancient Clan.

"Why is it always the Wang Clan?" roared one of the members, his voice containing unwillingness.

"I told you when suppressing the luck of their clan, it might be transferred to the other branch."

The Wang Ancient Clan had three Great Emperors since the Null Era, but two mysteriously disappeared. Many members believed they died due to the Bloodline Imprint, but only the members of this meeting knew it was them who acted and killed these two.

And the reason was to suppress the Luck of the Wang Clan. All their families were ancestors of one thing or another. However, the Wang Clan was the ancestor of Acquired Lifes Cultivation System in the Myriad Emperor World. Such Luck and Destiny were enough for their family to become too powerful–even after the split of bloodlines. So, this group suppressed them.

"It doesn't make sense to be transferred since Qiyuan separated them," argued the previous voice.

"There is no point in arguing," said a female voice. "We are here to discuss our next course of action."

"I say we sealed ourselves. We avoid this generation and wait for him to leave."

"That's not a bad idea. No matter how powerful the upcoming Emperor is, he cannot stay in the lower dimension for too long. We can hide and wait until it's the right time."

"I disagreed," said the Huo Clan Ancestor.

"Oh, any reason?"

"Sealing ourselves will make ourselves more suspicious," she argued. "We know the Wang Clan Emperor will change the environment. And since the world thinks that's our objective, we should be more active."

"But this risks our plan being revealed."

"No, she has a point. We need to appear as normal as possible. Otherwise, with the intelligence and cunningness of the Wang Clan Emperor, he will figure out our plan."

"I agree; we need to be secretly low-key while publicly acting as if we wanted the revival of the Innate Demon Gods."

"How about we try to exile him to the upper dimension?"

Everyone looked at the person who spoke and sneered after seeing it was the elder who had hatred for the Wang Clan.

"Elder Duan, don't bring your bias into this discussion. We need to make decisions that benefit the entire Ancient Clan."

"And my idea is one," argued Elder Duan. "If we exile the Wang Clan Emperor to the upper dimension, we don't have to worry about anything nor need to seal ourselves."

"The last time these people exiled the Heaven-Devouring Emperor, they needed Heavenly Dao's help and still lost countless Immortals and Insurgents. We also lost a few people."

After thinking about the past, many people secretly gritted their teeth. The other factions forced their Ancient Clan to send people to participate.

"The Wang Clan Emperor has Emperor Strength while a mortal. Can you fathom how powerful he will be after proving Dao? What makes you think we can exile such an entity?"

"Not to mention, Heavenly Dao chose to help because the Heaven-Devouring Empire was actively hurting the world. Do you think a chosen Era Son would do such a thing?"

Many of the elders admonished Elder Duan for suggesting something so asinine, making the latter's face become red in embarrassment and anger.

"Alright, let's change the topic. If anyone agrees with Elder Huo's suggestion, cast your vote."

Most people voted in favor of this decision, and only a few voted to completely seal themselves and hide. Meanwhile, Elder Duan abstained from his vote.

"What about Huang'er? How do we deal with her?"

"Let's not say anything until she becomes a 6-Star Primarch," suggested Elder Huo. "We don't want this news to affect her mind or Dao Heart."

"After reaching such a height and transitioning her life form, she might better accept this information."

"Sigh. It's really a curse to live in the same generation as those two."

"True. Such talent did not happen even at the height of the war."

During the Acquired-Innate War, each side fought for destiny. And when Acquired  Life was approaching victory, the destiny of Acquired Life was at an all-time high, giving birth to countless talents.

But, even then, no such talent as heaven-defying as Di Tian and Wang Wei showed up.

"The Wang Clan will begin their third Era in this world, and this time, it might be even more glorious than the previous two combined," said Elder Duan with a sneer as he gazed at the other clans.

His words made everyone quiet and even awakened some thoughts deep in some people's minds.
