Chapter 514 Perfect Foundation

After the meeting ended, w.a.n.g Wei took a few more minutes to talk to his teamespecially Li Junto learn about his nephew's current status. After knowing the baby was fine since the sect used the best sealing method to protect it and the mother, w.a.n.g Wei felt relieved.

Finally, when he was alone, he took out his Chaos Treasure: the Oracle Mirror. He injected his Origin Essence to activate while focusing on Di Tian to label him as the primary target.

He focused on their karmamainly because he almost killed him in the Heavenly Abode World. After a few minutes, w.a.n.g Wei frowned as he muttered: "Only 50%? That's not nearly enough."

He closed his eyes as much information appeared in his mind. Previously, he gathered some information from Di Tian's memory and knew he had lived for at least nine lives and fought in many different Heaven Will Battles.

But today, he finally experienced these battles through the mirror. He saw the latter's battle with his ancestor, the Qiyuan Emperor, and the Sword Empress. He even saw the latter's battle with the Absolute Beginning Emperor.

Additionally, w.a.n.g Wei learned some techniques that Di Tian usedeven glimpsing at how he condensed his Cultivation Seed; this information might help him when he finally fused with his incarnations.

Lastly, w.a.n.g Wei learned some information about the Sleepers: how they were created and operated.

w.a.n.g Wei opened his eyes before muttering: "This is not enough. There is too much I don't know."

With the information he acquired, he has a better profile of Di Tian as a whole, but it was not nearly enough to plan how to defeat him. So, he needed to find ways to increase the Karmic Ties between them.

'I could kill his family,' w.a.n.g Wei thought calmly. It would not be wise to start a war with the entire Di Clan. However, with the proper excuse and opportunity, killing Di Tian's parents is not a problem. The only issue is that his dad is the current patriarch, but w.a.n.g Wei could scheme his downfall to remove him from power.

After thinking about it for a moment, he shook his head and decided otherwise. It was not because of morality or something of the sort. It's because he realized Di Tian's connection to his family might not be as significant as he thought.

To him, the Di Clan is probably only his protection in the early stages of his reincarnations. He might not even rely on them for his cultivation resources.

After living for so long, w.a.n.g Wei doubted Di Tian had any affection for his family. And since the latter has such a mastery of Karma, he might not have any bond or connection to the Di Clan whatsoever.

'Based on what I know about him, he should only care about two things: his wife and the Sleepers since they are individuals who probably know him from his first life.

'I could probably increase my Karmic Ties with him by systematically eradicating the Sleepers. However, the greatest increase would probably be with his wife.'

Numerous thoughts flashed across w.a.n.g Wei's mind before deciding to visit her. Hopefully, she was still in that small sect in the Eastern Azure Dragon Continent.

So, after delegating some of his work, w.a.n.g Wei left the sect and opened a s.p.a.ce tear to the Eastern Continent to meet Qiao Ning.

However, after landing not far from his destination, he suddenly stopped as he realized some things. First, he could not calculate this woman through the Karma he has with her.

After meeting twice, he should be able to use the Karmic Threads connecting them to find her. But he could not. Then, w.a.n.g Wei pondered deeply and realized some things.

As once a perfect being, or one close to it, she should have died in Di Tian's Outlaw Trial. By now, w.a.n.g Wei understood that 'Perfection" was another taboo, so this fact should have boosted Di Tian's trial and made things a little more complicatedjust like Wu Hong's existence and his Paragon Soul did for him.

And yet, despite this, she managed to survive the trialeven in the form of a ghost or spirit. No matter how he thought of the situation, he could not understand how she pulled off such a feat.

'This woman is not simple,' he thought. And after coming to this conclusion, he decided to discard whatever plan he had to meet her and return home. So, he turned around.

"Danm it," w.a.n.g Wei said suddenly. "You almost stopped my heart."

"Is that so?" said Qiao Ning.

w.a.n.g Wei placed his right hand on his chest. "Even with my powerful and s.e.xy body, I can't withstand this kind of scare."

"You're quite humorous, aren't you?"

"Well, in my short life, I learned that humor is a great way to hide other emotions and get close to others. So, Lady Qiao, what do I owe this unexpected visit?"

"Aren't you the one looking for me? So, here I am."

"I think you've made a mistake. I came here to personally check some information my subordinate had just received."

Qiao Ning looked at him up and down. "You truly resembled the old him: comical, confident, composed, and shameless to the core."

"I am a man of many faces, so it's normal to resemble other people," replied w.a.n.g Wei with a smile. "But I guarantee you, I am unique."

"I'm sure you are," she replied before looking at the stars in the sky. For a brief moment, she seemed to have blended into the darkness of the night; she was one with the world.

Qiao Ning looked at w.a.n.g Wei and said: "I know why you're here, and I can help you."

"If that's true, then you should understand why I would be prudent in receiving your help."

"If it would help, you can ask me anything."

"The main question is, why are you helping me, knowing it would be detrimental to your husband?"

Qiao Ning sighed heavily, "The truth of the matter is I'm running away from something, from a truth."

"And what would that be?"

"I fear that after he revives me and realizes that I am not the perfect creation he once fell in love with, he will not accept the outcome; he will not accept me. By then, what do you think he will do?"

"I want to say he would love and care for you because of his deep love for you that transcends time and reincarnation," replied w.a.n.g Wei. "However, I'm not so sure about this answer."

"So am I," replied Qiao Ning. "And I've been dreading the arrival of this day for many years."

"But, what does this have to do with you helping me?"

"I am preparing for the future," she replied. "I will help you with two conditions: if you win the Heaven Will Battle, I want you to give him another chance at life. To be clear, I'm not asking you to go easy on himnot that you would have that luxury. I'm just asking you to allow him to enter reincarnation again.

"And if you lose, all you have to do is give him some ideas on how to revive me. Although these ideas will be useless, they can give him a sense of purpose and prevent him from descending into madness and despair."

w.a.n.g Wei frowned after hearing her explanation: "Aren't you looking at me a little too high?"

"No, I know you can do these things."

"But, is your help truly worth all you're asking for?"

"I guarantee you that it will," said Qiao Ning before condensing a crystal talisman with a wave of her hand. She then waved her hand to block the surrounding.

"This is all the knowledge I have on "perfection." One time, I had the idea of creating the Perfect Foundation. However, I failed because of my low cultivation level.

"Now, even to a talented individual such as yourself, this thing is not worth much since you have not seen the pinnacle of cultivation. However, in your wife's hands, this thing is simply invaluable."

As w.a.n.g Wei looked at the crystal, he could feel the ma.s.sive karmic weight behind it. It was so poignant that even his Karma Unbound Physique could not help him reduce the weight.

At the same time, his intuition was going crazy, telling him to take it no matter what. It was so bad that it took a great deal of Willpower not to s.n.a.t.c.h this crystal like an alcoholic who started to exude withdrawal symptoms.

After calming down, w.a.n.g Wei thought of the pros and cons of doing so. Then, he accepted her help. The moment he took the crystal, he could feel his connection to Di Tian increase to 80%, but he did not care about this for now.

He bowed politely to Qiao Ning before rus.h.i.+ng home and giving the crystal to Wu Hong, who was slightly surprised at how excited he seemed.

She used her Divine Sense to read the information in the crystal, and for a moment, Wu Hong had a blank look on her face.

'Perfect Foundation, the Foundation of Detachment, of Transcendence.'

She could not help but think of the implication. Such a thing would benefit even her real body, let alone w.a.n.g Wei. So, she took a deep breath to calm down.

'Her direction is wrong, and many of her a.s.sumptions are also wrong. However, she has a lot of information about "Perfection," so I can succeed where she fails.

'The problem is such a method would require a place where Great Dao cannot sense or does not have control to cultivate.'

She could think of a few places such as this, but they were where she would not dare to go when she was a Boundless Paragon with 100% understanding of the Grand Dao Source.

Now is not time to ponder this issue,' Wu Hong thought before focusing on w.a.n.g Wei.

"Did you tell anyone else about this?"

"No, I came directly to see you after she gave it to me."

"Don't ever tell a second soul about this."

"It is that serious?"

"Think of it that way. If your Paragon Soul will make you the enemy of all the Paragons of the Eternal Ascension World, this information is enough to make you an enemy to all Paragons, FiendG.o.ds, Dao Monarchs, and Immortal Kings across all Chaos Worlds; in another world, the enemy of the entire Chaos Universe.

"These people will do anything to get this information."
