Chapter 750 Primary Materials And Husband Picking

Wu Hong was deep in thought as she tried to analyze the situation and review the key memories; she did not send a clone to the lower dimension. No, she was not even capable of such a feat. Only Half-Step Transcendence and someone like Old Man Nether can influence the lower dimension to such a level.

'She is obviously me, with the same [Existence],' pondered Wu Hong, eliminating the possibility the latter only looked like him.

'Two possibilities: the first one is someone else sent that clone and is plotting something, and the second is my future self sent the clone. However, Paragons cannot do such a feat–unless they use Old Man Nether's method. So, does that mean future me is Half-Step Transcendence?'

Wu Hong was not excited about this news as she felt things became even more complicated. Suddenly, she thought of something.

'No, this is not as simple as leaving a clone; someone is tempering with the Primordial Timeline.' Her memories from the Ultimate Taboo were blurry and missing a few chunks. However, she remembered she had discovered a shocking truth– she learned someone might have forcefully changed the Primordial Timeline.'

Wu Hong took out a talisman and sent a message to Maitreya, asking her whether she had the strength to temper the timeline.

[Yes, I can temper with the Primordial Timeline of the Eternal Ascension World. However, if the changes lead to domino effects that affect other Chaos Worlds or the entire Primordial Chaos, the backlash from the River of Time will instantly kill me.]

Wu Hong squinted her eyes, amazed by the power of Half-Step Transcendence. Then, she focused on the more important thing.

'My clone's purpose seemed to steer this fated lover in a different direction, ensuring his path is smoother and better. However, this fated love's destiny is enough to affect the entire Chaos Universe.'

She remembered the latter's involvement with so many taboos and his destiny to end the Era of the Seven Moons.

'So, whoever sent that clone has achieved power beyond the Half-Step Transcendence.'

Wu Hong remembered the vital information they'd learned from the Ultimate Taboo: two individuals in the Chaos Universe truly detached from the universe.

'Could it be one of them or something else?'

She reviewed the memory and focused on a specific conversation Wang Wei had with the clone.

'A battle between them and Grand Dao that spawn across space-time? Using the universe as a chessboard and all living beings as chess pieces. That's another possibility.'

Wu Hong frowned, 'Have I become a chess piece? No, according to his theory, we might be chess players.'

She shook her head as she realized even if she returned to her peak, she would still be a chess piece.

'Transcendence, Transcendence: I will forever remain a chess piece without taking that step.'

Wu Hong took a deep breath. With the current information, she knew her future was bright but also full of struggle. However, she also understood the future was not set in stone.

Learning about her future achievement might have already changed the course of history to something completely different. So she will not become complacent or have the mindset that her success is guaranteed.

'It's a shame much of the key information is sealed,' Wu Hong pondered. Then, she focused on something else.

"The Perfection Foundation," she muttered as she briefly glanced over this technique. "It really looks like a technique I would create." Any technique, spells, or scriptures created by a cultivator will have their brands on it. A pair of twins who make the same technique will have slight differences based on their brands.

'The only issue is the Dark Truth.' Wu Hong did not want to take the risk of contacting a taboo that could kill her without any resistance.

'The problem is these Forbidden Lands suggested as an alternative are as dangerous as the Dark Truth. Plus, I would have to survive Grand Dao's wrath unless I spend the rest of my life in these Forbidden Lands.'

The Dark Truth is the best place for this technique since it could even protect cultivators from Grand Dao's wrath.

'Not to mention the headache of the materials needed for this technique.' She smiled wryly as she looked at the list: Perfect Tear–a rare Heaven and Earth object that contains the essence of perfection. People who tried to study Mortal and Immortal Perfection are usually desperate for this thing. However, it's not only rare but also requires to pass a trial created by Grand Dao itself to acquire it.

An interesting fact about the Perfect Tear is many people believe Xu Junyao is the reincarnation of a Perfect Tear who became a Spirit.

Another rare resource for this technique is Grand Dao Blood. Throughout the history of the Chaos Universe, blood has dripped from the Eye of Grand Dao six times. To this day, no one knows the reason. But each time it occurs, it is a battle fiesta where Paragons, Fiendgods, Dao Monarchs, and Immortal Kings die in the millions.

'The last core material is the Heavenly Dao Seed from a Central Source Chaos Worlds.'

Wu Hong was speechless as the word 'Central Source Chaos World' was a new secret long suspected by many but only recently proven after the Ultimate Taboo.

There are different levels of Source Chaos Worlds in Primordial Chaos. Some are only capable of giving birth to only one Paragon or have a limit of 100. Only a few have no limits on the number, like the Eternal Ascension World.

However, the real secret of the Central Source Chaos World is not their unlimited Paragon-birthing abilities but the fact their Heavenly Dao has the power of Half-Step Transcendence. And by absorbing them, cultivators can reach that step, just like Supreme Unity.

Throughout the Chaos Universe, there are only 3800 Central Source Chaos Worlds, and after the Ultimate Taboo, they became hot potatoes competed by many people. Of course, most of these people did not have a feasible technique to absorb Heavenly Dao.

'From what I remember, there are two ways to get the seed: overcome Heavenly Dao by force or use a ton of merit to exchange it.'

Wu Hong was genuinely speechless regarding the resources needed to cultivate this technique. The three primary materials are rarer and more precious than the Limit Breaker. What's more, even the supporting materials are as rare as the Limit Breaker.

'Ok, let's put it behind for now,' Wu Hong decided. Although she concluded the Dark Truth was the best way to cultivate this technique since the materials are likely to be directly granted. Unfortunately, the risks were too significant.

Wu Hong continued reviewing her memories, focusing on Wang Wei; she wanted to know what kind of person he was, his personality, his likes and dislikes, and so on.

'He seems quite easy to get along with,' she thought, nodding in satisfaction. She did not want someone boring or with a bland personality.

'Very charming, witty, intelligent, extremely open-minded, and think outside the box,' she nodded as she could see her life would be more exciting with a person with such a personality.

"Handsomeness and talent more than meet the standard. As for wealth? Well, he's wealthy for someone from the lower dimension. However, he does have the potential to gather more wealth," muttered Wu Hong as Wang Wei filled in more of her boxes.

"Let's check his performance in the bedroom."

She focused on the memories of when they were intimate. With a calm demeanor, she reviewed every experienced like a scientist gathering observable data.

'Great techniques; he knows what he's doing. He likes to explore new ideas I've never thought of–most likely the result of his origin in the Prehistoric World. That's a plus.'

Wu Hong could foresee her life in the bedroom would be exciting if she chose to be with him. However, she soon frowned.

"His stamina is not on par with my standard," she muttered as she watched his performance. "However, this should change after he opens the Gates of Power and Flesh."

After more than 30 minutes, Wu Hong finished her review. "Overall, we seemed very compatible. However, a lot could change before our next meeting. So, let's wait and see."

Wu Hong stood up from her cultivation mat. Her hair then turned silver-gray–the same color as Wang Wei.

"Alright, let's go deal with her," she muttered with a sneer. She teleported to the place Sword Empress retreated.

"Are you going to say anything?"

"What do you mean?" asked Sword Empress, 'surprised.'

"You don't think I'll believe you did not know my Fate Companion was your descendant."

"How would I know?" replied Yan Ai, not hiding her smirk.

"Is Maitreya also part of this?"

"What do you think?"

Wu Hong stared at her with gritted teeth. Then, Yan Ai laughed out loud, not stopping for five minutes straight.

"You have to admit it's funny," she said. "In the future, don't forget to address as Ancestor–you must respect the seniority."

After the Emperor Realm, cultivators no longer decide seniority by age but by strength. After all, they are immortal creatures that have lived for trillions upon trillions of years. 

Additionally, when a family has numerous immortal descendants, it's pointless to care about things like generational seniority.

Wu Hong stared at her with a dangerous light in her eyes. 

"What are you planning?" asked Yan Ai with worry in her voice.

"Don't worry. I'll beat you up and record your bruised and terrible state."

"Don't do anything rash or stupid," warned the Sword Empress, who knew she was incapable of resisting in her current state.

"Don't worry. These recordings won't ever see the light of day–unless you dare try to make me call you ancestor or try to use your seniority before me," said Wu Hong with a gentle smile that was highly sinister to Yan Ai.

"Little Wu, Hong'er, remember all the good things I've done for you; you are like my sister.' Her voice was pleading.

"I know; that's why I will seal your pain so you won't feel a thing."

"Damn it. Why don't you deal with Maitreya if you have the balls."

"Don't worry; she will have her day of judgment."

Wu Hong no longer wasted any time and pounced on her opponent like a cheetah hunting her prey.
