879 The Imperfection and The Divination
(Unedited Chapter)
—--
As Wang Wei's body reappeared, a look of understanding and excitement appeared on his face. He solved many riddles, secrets, and confusion in this brief confrontation.
'Grand Dao Source–that's the answer to everything,' he thought, his eyes brighter than before. 'Dao Ancestors can control up to 4% of Grand Dao Source, so why can't I–with the Ten Supremacy Foundation–do the same?'
Wang Wei immediately knew the source of his imperfections–he could use his current foundation to comprehend and control up to 4% of the Grand Dao Source, bringing his power to another level.
For some reason, Di Tian knew this truth, and he succeeded. However, he never showed his true power, most likely in fear that I would learn from him. So, he hid the Grand Dao Source fluctuations.
Furthermore, this answer also explained many other things: Why did Di Tian's Dao change the laws of one of the Dimensions, making Samsara Dao the main Dao of the entire place?
Why did all of Wang Wei's Dao be suppressed–especially his Life and Death (Samsara) Dao?
It's because he controlled the source or origin of all Daos–the Grand Dao Source. As such, all laws or Daos are innately suppressed before the source; this is why Dao Ancestors and Great Emperors are absolute beings before mortals.
'How did he do it? Is it because he used a more orthodox approach and instantly knew he could control the Grand Dao Source? Or is it because of something else?' asked Wang Wei, who quickly realized
this was no longer important.
'What I need to do now is to also control the Grand Dao Source.'
"So, you find the truth," said Di Tian, his voice and eyes colder than the abyss itself. In the previous confrontation, Wang Wei got answers, but so did he. He finally understood why his intuition warned him not to reveal his Grand Dao Source.
'Wang Wei does not have any control of the source. However, with his monstrous talent and deep Law Comprehension Foundation, as long as he knows it's possible, it's very easy for him to do the same and reach the same height as me.
'So, he must die before that.'
Boom!
His aura–which was already scary–actually increased, and by an exponential amount. Behind him manifested a river made of chains.
'The manifestation of the Grand Dao Source,' thought Wang Wei. 'Grand Dao loved the river motif too much.'
He quickly removed these distracting thoughts from his mind. He knew he was at a precipitous and the slightest mistakes would cause him failure and death.
'His strength was raised from 7% to 9%--which is the limit of Third Class. I would not be surprised if he could reach the strength of Second Class on his own.'
He remembered Di Tian's unique Proving Dao Artifact. He now knew the reason for its uniqueness–it had experienced one round of Grand Dao Source Baptism before Di Tian even proved the Dao.
With such a weapon, Wang Wei could imagine the strength Di Tian could reach.
'Damn it. How did things reach this far,' cursed Wang Wei, who no longer hesitated and used all his ability. His body turned gray with long claws, and his pupils turned dark purple; his body contained an ancient and noble aura.
Bones wings grew from his back, but they enveloped him, turning into bone armor. His flesh seemed to have sublimated as the Yang and Blood Energy inside his body drastically improved.
[Ancient Desolate God Transformation]
The transformation was only the beginning. Wang Wei immediately activated the [Nothingness Concept] of his body, turning his body into a state of [Intangibility].
[Hand of Death]
Di Tian did not waste time and used his most intense and condensed attack. So, the Life and Death Book, The Pen of Judgment, the Death Sword, and the Bridge of Remembrance all turned into a huge palm of condensed death power.
Boom!
Everything on the path of the hand was annihilated. With the destruction of the Yin and Yang Dimension, the battle was now in an empty void isolated by the power of Heavenly Dao itself using a little bit of World Source.
Alas, this attack was useless. Wang Wei was perfectly intact as the hand passed through him as if he did not exist between Heaven and Earth.
'I need to hurry up,' thought Wang Wei, who had figured out another puzzle–his prophecy.
[Two battles, two breakthroughs, one useless, one successful, forming a cycle–finally breaking the shackles of death.]
'I have fought with Di Tian twice. In our first battle, I made a breakthrough during our battle, but it was pointless. His power was beyond me at that time. Now, in our second battle, if I can make another breakthrough and comprehend my Grand Dao Source, I can win, prove the Dao, become an Emperor, and break the shackles of death.'
Wang Wei's eyes became brighter as his divination had already determined his future and the path he must walk on to prove the Dao.
'However, I do not have to completely follow in the footsteps of fate. The last part of the divination has given me inspiration if I interpret it in another way.'
A crazy idea popped into Wang Wei's mind, and he could not contain his excitement. His mind worked faster than it ever had, trying to create ways to succeed.
'Assimilation; this world has assimilated to this level–even though I tried to look out for it. I should have thought of this long ago and prepared.'
With his intelligence and wisdom, he should have had this idea long ago. Unfortunately, he has been too influenced by this world, integrating into its rhythm, thus being limited by the people's way of thinking.
'Luckily, it's not too late, and I already have the foundation to succeed.'
Wang Wei suddenly felt great danger and paid attention to Di Tian. The latter summoned the Samsara Pagoda, which had five of its nine layers officially open.
With these layers opened, Di Tian's connection to the Grand Dao Source deepened, and his aura drastically increased.
'10%--The Power of Second Class,' thought Wang Wei with an ugly expression. And before he could react, the palm of death descended on him.
Boom!
His body flew away. Unfortunately, the concept of distance was distorted in this emptiness, so no one knew how far he flew.
'I'm injured?' he thought. His [Intangibility] prevented the attack from killing him, but it severely injured him. Furthermore, he discovered he could not easily heal from his injuries.
'If these injuries pile up, once my state ends, I will immediately die, and it will be permanent.'
Wang Wei did not waste time and summoned four items: 3 Emperor Artifacts and his Proving Dao Artifact. They surrounded him at the center, one in each direction.
The one at the north was one of the sect's main artifacts–the Turtle Shell. At the south was his Proving Dao Artifact, which also took the shape of the Turtle Shell. This form allowed him to resonate with the one in the north, thus granting him better control and access to its power.
The two artifacts in the east and west were of no major significance. As such, with these four magical artifacts, Wang Wei laid out a formation called Four-Direction Array.
The arrays' sole purpose is to increase the [Intangibility State] of his body, thus boosting his defensive capability.
Finally, Wang Wei closed his eyes and focused on his Law Altar. Over the years, his Dao Comprehension reached a terrifying level. It could be argued that he raised his Dao to the level of Grand Dao Source, hence why his Law Altar turned purple from gold.n0vElUsb.c0m
However, because he never tried to comprehend the Grand Dao Source, he was limited. So, all he has to do is convert his Dao Comprehension into the Grand Dao Source, allowing him to reach the same state as Di Tian, if not higher.
As soon as Wang Wei began, an illusory river made of chains appeared behind him, making Di Tian's facial expression grave.
'No, I need to hurry–no matter the consequences.'
He hurried up to open the sixth layer of his Pagoda. Unfortunately, opening the layers above the fifth one took a great toll on his body and soul. If not for his Innate Emperor Soul, he would have been incapable of opening them up.
Regrettably, opening each layer will now take some time, time he did not have.
Di Tian soon opened the sixth layer and attacked.
Boom!
Once again, his attack was overwhelming. However, it only increased the injuries on Wang Wei's body, not even interrupting his comprehension.
'No, I need to open the ninth layer and use that technique. Only with it could I forcibly destroy his Intangibility.'
Time was of the essence. He knew if he let Wang Wei succeed, with his former strength blessed by the Grand Dao Source, he would have no chance of winning and surviving this ordeal.
So, Di Tian chose to use extreme means to open up the seventh to ninth layer.
