Chapter 1055 Seed of Distrust

1055 Seed of Distrust

Heavenly Court:

w.a.n.g Wei observed the talisman with the characters [Ancient Clan] in his hand. The Ancient Clan was not a monolith, so their Qi Luck Artifact was many and took different shapes. However, the overall condense luck of everybody manifested in the talisman in his hand.

'I thought it would be much harder for Huo Fenghuang to get her hands on this thing. It seems her control of the clan is greater than I gave her credit for,' thought w.a.n.g Wei before looking at the moon. He saw her tribulation, and it was something to scoff at. True Heavenly Dao was ruthless in the tribulation, most likely as a way to deter people from walking the path of transition. This is probably why, despite the Ancient Clan giving birth to a few four and 5-Star Primarchs, no one has actually transitioned.

Of course, this kind of tribulation is child's play compared to his Immeasurable Tribulation, but it's not something ordinary Heaven Chosen can handle.

After observing for a while, w.a.n.g Wei put away the talisman before visiting Xu s.h.i.+. After she made the court her residence, they talked often and further developed their friends.h.i.+p.

Innate Demon G.o.d Race Small World:

"This world is wrong," said Primordial Life, a giant woman with four spike horns and small celestial bodies...o...b..ting around them.

"Yes, there seems to be some incongruity with our birth," agreed Primordial Death, a gendered neutral colossal being with all black eyes, no pupil, and six arms.

"Primordial Might, why don't you say anything?" the others asked, looking at another t.i.tan with significant muscle, blue skin, and four eyes.

"If you check the history of this world, you would understand why," replied Primordial Might. The others followed his lead and used their Divine Sense to scan the books of small Supreme Lands.

"So, we used to rule this land?" asked Primordial Death. The three looked at each other. They had no memories of their "ancestors" and did not inherit any of their legacies. However, the previous history has made their situation more complex to navigate.

"So, what should we do?" asked Primordial Life.

"We do not have any connections to our ancestors. Our focus should be integrating into this world," replied Primordial Might.

"Just accept things like this?" reb.u.t.ted Primordial Life.

"Did you not sense that gaze after we were unsealed?" Primordial Might asked, and everyone s.h.i.+vered at the mention of these words. They remembered that fear and warning.

"This is not our world, and the sooner we accept this, the better chance we have at surviving and eventually thriving," warned Primordial Might. He was the embodiment of the Power Law and also the idea that Might is right. Since the human race hunted their predecessors to extinction, he believed they had the right to rule this world.

"Ok. In that case, let's discuss with the Demons to see what they think," nodded Primordial Life, so they contacted the Ancestral Dragon, Empress Phoenix, and Origin Qilin. The conversation went alright initially until Ao Shen showed up, telling them he was the amba.s.sador of the court to introduce and initiate them into the world.

The Primordial G.o.ds noticed Ao Shen's ident.i.ty and became suspicious of his motives towards the Innate Demons. Luckily, the latter did not act rashly, and his actions showed nothing suspicious during the short meeting. However, the Primordial G.o.ds realized their counterpart might have a direct ally in the form of the Acquired Demon Race while they had nothing. So, they prepared for the possible break.

'Ao Shen, Ao Shen, you've become too predictable,' thought w.a.n.g Wei as he watched these interactions. He knew the dragon would want allies for his demon race and counted on him to act on it. Now, the seed of suspicions has been planted on the Primordial G.o.ds, which would lead to the separation of these two groups and eventually weaken them.

'The demon race can have the Innate Demons, and we will take the Primordial G.o.ds,' thought w.a.n.g Wei. He had already severed the connection between the current and former Innate Demon G.o.ds to prevent their history from affecting these creatures, but that was not enough. It does not change the fact they had such a glorious history, so w.a.n.g Wei needed to prepare in case one of them, maybe in the future, had the idea of reclaiming the glory of their ancestors.

So, he decided to weaken them at the earliest inception; he would not give them time to form any bond or trust as he immediately planted a seed of doubt in their mind on the first day they regained consciousness and interacted with the world.

The next step is to completely separate them, even until they have completely different cultures and ideologies. That way, in the future, even if one of them has some ideas, it will become a hundred times more difficult to execute them without the support of the other.

w.a.n.g Wei calmly watched everything before continuing to wait and observe. He received news that the Totem Warrior Path had finally been perfected without any issues. Wu Ming had done an excellent job training the court's Divine Generals and Soldiers.

These positions involved many benefits, so many cultivators volunteered to become court members in this capacity. So, the Totem Warrior Legion and Devil Legion received countless daily applications.

The cycle of the seasons rotated, and it was three years later that Huo Fenghuang finally pa.s.sed. The world celebrated the birth of the Sacred Beast Empress. Sadly, just like Ao Shen, people were now too used to the appearance of Eternal Emperors and did not care as much. They respected her as they should to a powerhouse of this caliber, but it was not the same.

The only ones who truly celebrated were the Ancient Clan, as Huo Fenghuang was their first Eternals in a very long time. Despite their arrogance, they have been afraid of their clan's decline, and the appearance of an Eternal is proof of their revival; so, they all looked forward to the future.

A little over a month after the Sacred Beast Empress's appearance, golden lights enveloped the Western White Tiger Continent, followed by visions of gilded lotus and Buddhist Chants. An intense amount of Buddhist Dao Rhymes then enveloped the entire continent.

"Did he succeed?" muttered w.a.n.g Wei as he watched the show. "No, not succeed, but something else."

As expected, Feng Heng, the Tao-Zen Buddha Emperor, appeared to announce the appearance of a new scripture. However, this scripture is not for the entire Myriad Emperor World but for Buddhism in general; it is the perfect manifestation of all its ideals and philosophy.

Feng Heng received much merit for his efforts, probably even more than he would have for the perfect scripture for his home world. Over the past 10,000 years, Buddhism has spread to every corner of this world community, overshadowing Taoism or other religions, cults, or schools of thought. And that's despite w.a.n.g Wei's restrictions not to shove religion on people and Feng Heng's desire not to repeat the old mistakes.

In other communities, the seed of Buddhism already planted by w.a.n.g Wei and Feng Heng has not improved much, but they have preserved their strength, waiting for the opportune time.

"Many things at home are about to be settled," muttered w.a.n.g Wei. "That's a good thing for the upcoming outward expansion."

He looked in the distance; his eyes focused on a tiny Small Thousand Worlds. His mother was finis.h.i.+ng the last few Enlightening Temples before her ascension to immortality.

'Nothing should go wrong, but I cannot help but worry,' thought w.a.n.g Wei. As he waited patiently for the day, he received news from Miscellaneous One and returned to the sect.

"Which one did you finish?" asked w.a.n.g Wei.

"The Immortal Qi Array," replied Miscellaneous One as he showed him the final result of his hard work. "Like you wanted: Immortal Venerables can link their Mansions to the array, and it will help them cultivate. I also added tiers as you recommended."

w.a.n.g Wei nodded. Since he instructed the creation of these things, the situation has changed, so he needed a different approach. The Dao Opening Sect was too powerful, so they did not need the appearance of any Immortal Sovereigns. That's why, even if they have enough Qi to cultivate one, they never use it and leave it for future emergencies.

"This thing came at the perfect time," commented w.a.n.g Wei. He knew there might be a backlash because he would not expand his court into other world communities; many of these people were already preparing for war, wanting to fight for their benefit. However, the array is the perfect incentive to replace the court positions these people would have acquired for the expansion.

"You did a great job," praised w.a.n.g Wei before leaving the sect with the array. He first secretly set up the main array in the Myriad Emperor World before establis.h.i.+ng interconnected branches in all worlds in the community. His Array Dao, which had now reached over 10%, made it easier to do so, and this approach drastically strengthened the overall power of this formation.

Once w.a.n.g Wei finished, he did not announce the news to anyone as he waited for the next court meeting to give the news.
