Chapter 911 Old Man Tianji

Chapter 911 Old Man Tianji

Wang Wei watched Wang Ju leaving and walked out of the

cultivation room. He stretched his body while sniffing the clean air full of Innate Qi.

"I need to visit the Source Qi Space," muttered Wang Wei before checking the world. The chaos everywhere had ended, and

everyone was preparing for the second court meeting.

He focused his eyes on the Western Continent. Currently, the weakest Emperor Lineage in the West had at least 3 Great Emperors, and they were the faction with three outstanding Emperors.

All the others were destroyed in the cleanup, reducing the population of devil cultivators in the west by more than 80%. The survivors suffered a tremendous blow in the process of destroying so many factions.

As Wang Wei watched the war, many thoughts flashed in his mind, mainly about the Balance Mechanism of the world. The Myriad Emperor World has a history that spawns countless Yuan Epochs.

Yet, the Dao Opening Sect was the first sect to cultivate 10 Great Emperors in that long period. A cultivation generation is between 3 to 5 million years; if an Emperor spends much time in the lower dimension, the generation will not last longer than 10 million years.

With such a long time span, the number of emperors cultivated since the Beginning Emperor Era is astonishing. Removing anything that happened before the Null Era, it seems statistically impossible that the top Emperor Lineages have such a small number of Great Emperorsa??especially since they controlled most of the world's resources and the best cultivation technique.

So, how do we explain this anomaly? Is it because of the Nine Emperor Curse? It does play a part. Before the Dao Opening Sect, other factions cultivated nine Emperorsa??Chaos Ruler Sect, Amitabha Temple, the Jin Clan, and a few others.

These factions were wiped out by the cruelty of time and because of the Balance Mechanism. However, the Nine Emperor Curse is not enough to explain this phenomenon.

The truth of the matter is Heavenly Dao will distribute most of the luck and destiny of a generation to the countless Supreme, Holy, and Law Lands. In most generations, the Emperor will be someone similar to Emperor Nine Suns of Wang Chang's generation.

The result of this action is there are many scattered Emperor Lineages with one or two Great Emperors. Sadly, the fate of these factions is terrible. The upper echelon factions like the Dao Opening Sect, the Emperor Enlightening Academy, the Taiyi Profound Gate, and all the others will secretly destroy these weak factions to steal their luck, resources, and foundation.

Their actions are a way to preserve their faction's superiority while also fighting against the Balance Mechanism.

Wang Wei exhaled as he felt his understanding of Heaven and Earth deepened. Then, he focused on watching how the war in the West proceeded.

These weak Emperor Lineages were ruthless and did not want to behave like pigs waiting to be slaughtered; they formed an alliance, resisting their destruction at all costs. These devil cultivators would have suffered even more if not for Feng Heng's aid.

As for why he intervened and helped these devil cultivators? It's because the battle was getting out of hand, forcing him to use way too much power to heal the space. Additionally, the war affected mortals, so he wanted it to end as swiftly as possible.

Of course, despite his intervention, Feng Heng was smart enough not to touch the merit the devil cultivators prepared as an offering for the Heavenly Emperor.

"You were smart enough not to touch what's mine, but some people do not have this wisdom," muttered Wang Wei with a sneer.

He snorted, his booming voice echoing in every cultivator's mind, followed by a dozen individuals' screams. In an instant, myriad cultivators, including a few Insurgents, died in different factions in the Western Continent.

Wang Wei did not blame the remaining people for the faults of a few. He accomplished his goal of dealing with the devil cultivators without even lifting a finger himself.

Now, the remaining devil cultivators have restrained themselves while also becoming great thugs under his court. The Western Bliss Sect restrained the Di Clan, preventing their power from drastically increasing after the cleanup.

So, he is more than satisfied with the final outcome.

'Feng Heng has been a very cooperative ally. Should I give him more benefit or reward?' thought Wang Wei before shaking his head.

During the opening of the Western Bliss Sect, he sent a clone and gave the latter an excellent gift. So, there is no need for that now.

Wang Wei looked at one of the rooms in the court, which was filled with golden spots.

'With the devil cultivator's merit, it should be enough for another 5% increase.'

Wang Wei smiled in satisfaction; this is why he created the court.

Although it will become harder to increase his cultivation, he can breeze through the early stages of the Emperor Realm.

Wang Wei then checked his two legions: Blood Saber and Totem Legion. Their training was going well; they improved dramatically with the luck blessing of the court.

'I need to refine a Dao Source Seed for Tie Gang as soon as possible so he can start training the Undying Legion. As for Li Jun's Slaughter Legion, they have their own purpose to train for.'

Wang Wei had many things to do, including cultivating new Dao Ancestors and Immortal Venerables for the sect. However, he also wanted to see if he could create better ones after his cultivation and battle prowess crossed into the Empyrean Level.

After finishing his checkup, Wang Wei walked into the central area of the court. He entered a special and very restricted area, gazing at an old man dressed like a beggar sitting cross-legged in the room.

After his arrival, the beggar opened his indifferent eyes.

"How is it? Are you satisfied with this power?"

"More than satisfied," replied the beggar calmly. "If not for your actions, I would never have an opportunity to practice Heaven Dao to such a height."

"I'm sensing you have questions," said Wang Wei as he sat before the beggar. "Why don't you begin by introducing yourself? I've known for so long but still don't know your name."

"People in my generation called me Old Man Tianji."

Wang Wei gave him a weird look. The name [Old Man Tianji] is often used in novels about his past life for people who are good at divination and calculating heaven's secrets.

'Maybe this name has some other mystery.

"So, what do you want to ask?"

"Why did you fuse Heavenly Dao into my body? Your court does not need Heavenly Dao to have a carrier to function normally."

"There are many reasons I chose this method," explained Wang Wei.

"Firstly, I wanted to see how a Heavenly Dao would control laws via a human proxy; it's a great learning opportunity.

"Secondly, according to my calculations, Heavenly Dao will be easier to control, manipulate, and restrict in this form.

"Finally, I felt Heavenly Dao was too rigid when doing certain things; sometimes, it needs a certain humanity or ingenuity in its actions.

However, it's incapable of doing so, so I give it this ability."

His hope was for Heavenly Dao to have a small balance of humanity and ingenuity while keeping its core essence as a program; in other words, a true Artificial Intelligence.

"Are you afraid it will acquire sentience?" asked Old Man Tianji.

"I don't," replied Wang Wei. "And you know why."

"Just like the Absolute Beginning Magic, the Sword Empress left a powerful sword power in the lower dimension that especially targeted Heavenly Daos, preventing them from gaining sentience.

The name of her scripture is Heaven Slashing Sutra, and she fulfilled its title.

"I know you're strong, but I still wish to warn you," said Old Man Tianji, his facial expression as blank as a white piece of paper.

"The Heavenly Emperor Karmic Position is one of the highest secrets of Heaven and Earth. Your actions of blatantly stealing it and revealing it might have consequences."

Wang Wei knew what he meant. The Heavenly Emperor Karmic Position existed as a last resort mechanism. Once a world faces true catastrophe, Heavenly Dao will manifest the position as a last attempt to protect the world.

The Three Karmic Positions existed for a specific situation. The Heavenly Emperor will appear when the laws of Heaven and Earth are affected; if they are incomplete, destroyed, or infected. Then, it's the job of the Emperor to return things to the way they were.

The Human Emperor will appear when the protagonists of Heaven and Eartha??whatever the race or civilizationa??are threatened and on the verge of extinction.

Finally, the Earth Emperor will show up when Samsara is affected, and the Yin-Yang Balance of the world is tilted to the Yin Side.

"There might indeed be some consequences, but not as severe as you said."

Wang Wei discussed with Heavenly Dao before taking the position.

However, his revealing the information to Mu Lei is indeed considered a 'crime.' Furthermore, more people will know about this secret once he starts to expand to other World Communities.

However, he renovated the Heaven Emperor Position and made it better. The entire situation of the Conferred God List and conserving World Source is all his idea.
