Chapter 495 Reward

Chapter 495 Reward

"That was scary," muttered Wang Wei, thinking how close he was to dying. He cursed Heavenly Dao for involving an Empyrean's Projection in this trial; that was too foul.

Luckily, his wife's reputation has some weight in the upper dimension, and he acted swiftly. From Jian Wushuang and Lin Fan's trial, he knew the consequences of hesitation.

If not for these factors, who knew what would happen.

Of course, Wang Wei had to admit his luck also played a role. After seeing Black Heart hiding his face or identity, he instantly concluded that he might be a very cautious individual who values his safety and life above everything else.

So, he took the gamble to use his background to scare him and even hint to Black Heart he was dealing with things beyond his capability, things that only big wigs like his Ancestor and Empress Wu could get involved in.

After thinking about how stressful the few seconds of interaction were, Wang Wei felt his soul sweating and his back cold. So, he took a few seconds to calm down.

Then, he remembered something, so he immediately checked his Immortal Soul to discover the seal in his Bright Spirit Soul was gone. So, he sighed in relief.

Then, some information appeared in Wang Wei's mind, telling him that he was now considered a "Dao Overlord." Supreme Outlaws who passed the trial are referred to as Dao Overlord, while Normal Outlaws are referred to as Dao Lord, or Overlord or Lord for short.

The benefit of these titles is quite interesting. It is a tremendous increase in Luck, followed by an increase in natural comprehension talent. However, the main reward is if these people manage to absorb HeavenWill and reach 20%.

Then, Heavenly Dao will help a Lord create their Dao Will, so they have more time to comprehend their Existence. And if that person has a Duyi Realm, they are guaranteed to create their Dao Will.

When it comes to [Overlords], not only will Heavenly Dao help them cast their Dao Will, but also extend the standard time they have to understand their [Existence].

This title is valid for a cultivator's entire life, meaning even if they die and reincarnate, as long as they retain or awake the memories from the previous life, the title will still be useful.

"That's it? After all this trouble, that's my reward?" muttered Wang Wei with disdain. He had the utmost confidence in himself to become an Eternal Emperor, so these rewards were nothing but small guarantees for him. So, he genuinely hoped this title had more to it than he knew.

While Wang Wei was about to be disappointed, a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind.

"No, my real reward is from Zhen Chao." So, he used the latter to control the surrounding space. Soon, he found another subspace, and he teleported inside.

"As expected," muttered Wang Wei as he saw all treasures in the room; he guessed Zhen Chao used this space as his space ring. So, Wang Wei began to identify the things that could benefit him.

"The Traveling Golden Could: an Innate Treasure to travel between World Communities. Well, although not as good as my Golden Chariot, it's not bad.

"A high-level Innate Spiritual Herb: Karma Protection Lotus. With this, I can finally complete my Karma Unbound Physique and use it to understand the Laws of Karma."

Wang Wei then saw a fruit glowing with the power of La: to be precise, Fate Law. He took it to analyze as he had never seen such a thing nor read about it. So, he searched Zhen Chao's memory for some information.

It was a strange fruit the latter found in one of the World Communities he traveled throughout. In that World, a strange tree named the Heavenly Law Tree exists. And the fruit from that tree can help cultivators better understand the Laws of Heaven and Earth.

When Zhen Chao visited, the tree gave birth for the second time in its life, a fruit with one of the Supreme Hidden Laws. So, a terrifying battle ensued throughout the entire world. But Zhen Chao was lucky to take the fruit and run away secretly.

"So, this would explain how he seemed to know so much about Fate; he must have studied it extendedly to develop counters for my techniques."

Wang Wei was excited since this fruit would drastically reduce his needed time to understand the law and even create his Incarnations. Moreover, he could refine this Fruit as the core of one of his Incarnations.

"Then, there is that Heavenly Law Tree; I must get my hands on it one day–or at least, find a way to cultivate one myself. Plus, I could find a way to connect that tree to the Grand Dao Source and create a Heavenly Source Tree; it will be much easier for me to understand the Source."

Thinking about how much such fruit would benefit, he could not help but be excited. If he succeeded, Wang Wei knew he might not have to worry about his cultivation all the way to the Paragon Realm.

Then, Wang Wei continued exploring as he sensed a few more treasures that interested him.

"An Extreme level Innate Time Treasure," muttered Wang Wei as he held a clock in his hand. This clock contained a miniature world where time could be sped up, just like the sect's Time Formation.

Furthermore, this treasure provides some protection against [Time Energy Invasion], which is the main reason that cultivators cannot spend a lot of time inside the Time Forwarding Formations.

Wang Wei's eyes lit up again: "I can use this treasure to understand Time Laws and create more [Future Buddha Self]. And maybe, I can use it to secretly steal time energy from the Chrono Chaos Realm."

Although this plan was a little risky, it is possible with enough preparations and caution.

He continued checking Zhen Chao's treasures; he found many cultivation techniques from different systems; they should help broaden his mind and maybe inspire him.

Finally, he saw seven treasures floating at this treasure hall's core.

"Six Emperor Artifacts and a Chaos Treasure," said Wang Wei with shining eyes. Chaos Treasures did not have levels or divisions. However, the weakest amount of them was equivalent to an Ultimate Level Innate Treasure, meaning the weakest of them was at the level of Eternal Emperor.

He took the Chaos Treasure, which was a mirror. And after checking Zhen Chao's memory, his eyes shone again for the third time in just a few minutes.

[The Oracle Mirror]: a treasure that gathers information on people. With it, a cultivator could theoretically gather all the secrets of another. The only restriction is that Karmic Bonds determine how much information the mirror will reveal.

For example, Wang Wei is responsible for Zhen Cha's parents' death, and this Karma allowed the latter to access 80% of all his information and secrets.

'From the previous battle, Zhen Chao seemed to know at least 95% of my secrets and abilities. So, Heavenly Dao and Di Tian probably made up that 15% gap,' thought Wang Wei as he looked at this mirror. Then, he focused on the mirror's second ability: to copy and steal other people's strengths.

This mirror is how Zhen Chao copied his power, and if the latter had killed him, he would have taken all his abilities and strength.

As Wang Wei looked at the mirror, he muttered: "This may be how I can defeat Di Tian."

As long as he knows his opponent's power level, he can prepare in advance. Finally, he focused on the six Emperor Artifacts. Immediately, he frowned as he felt the power of Luck in three of them, which indicated these artifacts were the treasures of certain Emperor Lineages.

After searching Zhen Chao's memories, he knew the latter was the next sect master of the Martial Origin Sect created by the Martial Ancestor.

'There is no way that sect would give up three of their Emperor Artifacts, so they will eventually track them down.'

He did not care much since he had a more prominent backer than these people. And when they show up, he will have the sect ask them to exchange resources equal to these 3 Artifacts, which can prevent confrontation while not losing any benefit.

Nevertheless, he still decided not to spend too much time here if they detected something and arrived on time.

So, he appeared in front of Zhen Chao, thinking about how to turn him into one of his Incarnations.

First, he will have to restart cultivating the Origin System. According to his calculations, the Incarnations are a form of Dao Foundation Sublimation. As such, they all must be from the same source or cultivation system.

Using other cultivation systems will ruin the purity of this foundation. Nevertheless, Wang Wei still decided to take some time to study the different systems since they could be of great help.

Unlike other Incarnations, Zhen Chao will not need to be baptized by the power of Fate. Additionally, he also needs to recultivate the [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scripture.]

Although Zhen Chao's fleshly body was powerful, it was because he cultivated a Martial Art System that focused on tempering the body. However, Wang Wei was not satisfied with his current level.

From the memories he learned, most of his healing and defensive abilities came from this space called a [Cave Heaven], which was blessed by Black Heart as a part of their deal.

Wang Wei wants all his incarnations to cultivate the [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scripture] to the peak before fusing them. And all of them have to walk the path of True Dao of Power.

Moreover, these were not all the plans he had for his Incarnations. Some will have unique tasks to accomplish to ensure the final fusion will be perfect. But now was not the time to ponder these things.

So, Wang Wei had Zhen Chao place away the Cave Heaven before sealing his body inside his space ring. He plans to use the space inside with the Dragon Binding Grass to temper his body.

Then, he hopped inside his Golden Chariot to head home.
