Chapter 190: Traveling

And Just like that, another 5 years passed by and Wang Wei opened his eyes from his meditation. He first checked his Infinite Divine Sea and he saw 7 Origin Patterns lying on his ancient lamp.

Then, he stood up while cracking the bones in his body. However, instead of normal popping sounds, his bones sounded like grenades exploding.

After that, Wang Wei sighed helplessly. The real reason that he went into seclusion was to modify the {Divine Punishment Thunder Refining] secret technique. However, the results were not that satisfactory.

Divine Punishment Thunder is very destructive by nature, making it very difficult to make it beneficial to anybody. Even Han Li's method is at best a shoddy method that allows someone to refine a tiny amount of it.

Well, this can blame Han Li as this specific thunder was designed to destroy beings like a Great Emperor. And even Wang Wei does not expect to be able to directly refine this kind of thunder.

What he has to do is to allow his body to slowly absorb a little of its power, then slowly increase the amount as his fleshly body becomes more adaptable to it.

Unfortunately for him, even the first step of "absorbing a tiny amount" has proven to be of great difficulty for him. Of course Wang Wei could use the remaining merit that he has to increase his comprehension, but he still needs to create a cultivation technique best suited for his physique.

Furthermore, it's not that Wang Wei cannot improve Han Li' secret method, but that the process is slower than he anticipated--even with his terrifying comprehension.

As a matter of fact, Wang Wei was being a little too picky. Not many people in this world can improve such a technique, let alone do it in such a short time. Some people might not even be able to cultivate Han Li's original version, let alone improve it.

Even Han Li himself was lucky to be able to create such a heaven defying technique, and it was mainly due to his special physique. On top of that, he did not really succeed in doing so.

His technique did not really allow him to refine Divine Punishment Thunder, but to be able to use a little part of it through a powerful artifact. At the higher stage of this technique, Han Li was able to store some of the thunder inside his body, but he did not "actually" refine it.

After exiting his seclusion, Wang Wei went to meet his parents and spent a few days with them. Then, he left the sect, heading to the academy on his own.

Wang Wei spent the majority of his time in the sect or going to places through instant teleportation, so he rarely has the opportunity to travel and personally see the world. So, he decided to take this time to do exactly that.

So, he left alone without his group--which he had already notified to head to the Emperor Enlightening Academy before him. Of course Wang Wei knew that he was not truly alone as his Dao Protector, Yan Chen was secretly following him.

But he did not care. Wang Wei knew that compared to the really powerful cultivators, he was still considered a weakling, so he needed the protection. As long as Yan Chen did not interfere with his sightseeing, he would not mind.

After leaving the mountain range of the sect, the first thing that Wang Wei did was leaving the Heavenspan Domain--which was occupied by the Dao Opening Sect.

Afterwards, he did not go through a few teleportation arrays in order to get to his destination. Instead, he hired a flying demonic beast from one of the businesses of the Herd Raising Valley.

Given the fact that teleportation is very expensive and not all cultivators can nor are willing to pay for it, the business of hiring demonic beasts has been very prosperous and the Herd Raising Valley controls the majority of this kind of business.

During his journey, Wang Wei started to observe the environment around him. The entire world is divided into cultivators and mortals.

The cultivating cities are usually vast and prosperous. And they gave off a similar vibe to the eras of Great Tang in Wang Wei's past life. It was the vibe of being refined, ethereal and immortal-like.

Whether it was the way people spoke, dressed, or even culture was similar to the Great Tang Dynasty.

As for the mortal cities, the vibe was more similar to the Great Qin Dynasty. There were severe laws and ordinary people could be whipped or killed based on the severity of the laws that they broke.

The clothes that they wore were more plain and simple. And things like poetry and art were not really appreciated by ordinary mortals--except for a few noble or wealthy individuals.

While slowly enjoying his travel, Wang Wei heard about an auction that was about to take place in a city called Clear-Lake, so he stopped by to check it out. As soon as Wang Wei arrived in front of the auction, he saw a beautiful woman waiting outside.

At first he thought that something special was going on in this auction, but it turned out that this woman was actually waiting for him, so he asked her how did he know that he was coming here. Her answer did surprise him a little.

The woman who called herself Li Jingfei said with a smile, "Sacred Son Wang Wei, you might not be aware, but many people around the world are monitoring your travel. Although many people know your final destination, this cannot stop them from keeping an eye on you. And this includes our Association of Chamber of Commerce."

Wang Wei nodded as he realized this. Since Wang Wei decided to treat this trip like a vacation, he did not really pay attention to many things around him, so he failed to notice this kind of thing.

However, he did not care. With True Monarch Yan Chen protecting him, nothing would truly happen to him. Furthermore, as long as someone had a slight killing desire or intention towards him, he would have noticed it.

Furthermore, it's not like he was actively trying to hide himself. Wang Wei knew that Heaven Chosen like him is similar to popular stars from his past life. Everywhere he goes, he will always have one or two eyes secretly following him.

Whether it is to know his destination, secretly observe his strength, or trying to determine his temperament through his day to day behavior, people will always try to observe him when he goes out. So, he did not care.

However, what he did care about was this Association of Chamber of Commerce. According to information he read in the past, this Association was formed by a group of powerful chambers of commerce scattered throughout the entire world.

More importantly, this Association is a core member of the Immortal Dao Alliance, which is basically a group made up of countless Immortal Lineages.

To this day, Wang Wei only knows a little about Immortal Lineages. According to what he recently learned from his father, Immortal Venerate and Dao Ancestor is a cultivation stage above the Supreme Realm.

These two realms of cultivation are considered an alternative way to the Path of Emperor. And in this stage, cultivators are considered immortal--meaning they do not have to worry about their life spans. However, in order to become an Immortal Venerable or Dao Ancestor, the help of a Great Emperor is still required as cultivators cannot reach this realm on their own.

This is one of the reasons that many sects are always fighting to cultivate another Great Emperor, because this will lead to their sects having a few more Immortals cultivators. For those people who do not have the opportunity to prove the Dao, the Immortal Path or the Dao Ancestor Path is their only chance at becoming immortal beings.

After hearing this information, Wang Wei was quite shocked, so he asked his father so many questions.

What exactly are Immortal Venerables and Dao Ancestors? How does one reach such a cultivating realm? Can any of these people fight a Great Emperor? What impact can these cultivators have in the world? Why has the news been kept secret from the world? Why has he never seen or heard about any Immortal Venerables from the sect beside the one that provided Li Jun with his bloodline when he was cultivating his new physique?

Unfortunately for him, his father did not answer most of his questions. The only thing that he did answer was the fact that is an agreement called the [Immortal-Avenue Pact] signed by all the cultivators of the world that no Immortal Venerables or Dao Ancestors will intervene in the world until a Great Emperor is born in each generation.

The reason for that was due to how powerful and destructive a battle between these immortal beings can be, so it was necessary to limit them.
