1020 Null Era Secrets

"Have you heard of the Abyss Gap?"

Tong Ruobing immediately frowned, "Know a little. It's one of the few Forbidden Lands of the Endless Void." She has read some of the Star Monarch Mountain records and saw the Abyss Gap information. However, no records revealed what secrets lay in that place.

"I need you to enter and get me some useful information," said Wang Wei, who waved his hand to send her a jade talisman. "This talisman will grant you my pinnacle strength. Use it before entering and get me some valuable information about that gap."

Tong Ruobing looked at the talisman, "Can I have some time to prepare?"

"Of course, but don't take too long."

Tong Ruobing bowed before disappearing; she had a lot of work to do. First, she needed to cultivate a decent clone to prevent the same mistake from happening. This process took over a year, and once she finished, she returned to the Star Beast World.

"What happened?" asked Mu Lei, who sensed her early departure and sent a projection to check on her. Tong Ruobing sighed before telling him everything.

"Why are you being so stupid now of all time?"

grunted Mu Lei. "Offer him high-level positions in our court: why take such risk?"

"No, I absolutely will now allow his tentacles to spread to this world," rebuked Tong Ruobing, making Mu Lei sigh. "My retreat is almost over.

Wait for me, and I'll replace you."

"No need. Since this is my mess, I'll clean it up." Trace back the roots of this material to n0v$lbin

Tong Ruobing refused without hesitation; she did not want to put him in this kind of danger.

"Plus, things are not so bad."

"Not so bad? Do you know how dangerous the Abyss Gap is? Thousands of Emperors from all classes have sealed this thing, but the aura released from it has always managed to corrode the seal. Heaven knows what horror would exit that thing if not re-sealing it every generation."

Tong Ruobing was silent as she looked at the talisman in her hand, "This is indeed a catastrophe, but it's also an opportunity."

Anything related to Wang Wei is both danger and an opportunity, she has long known this, hence why she never kept her distance away from him, knowing how scary he was.

Luckily for them, the war in the lower dimension was vital to the one upward. So, they received support in the form of resources, and once the 12 Acquired Supreme used the powerful formation to deal the most significant blow to the opposite side, they won the war and blessed the upper dimension's side with Qi Luck and destiny, which in turn help them also achieve victory later down the line.

Of course, the upper dimension Innate Lives would not easily accept such a defeat. So, they organized a retreat for the remaining survivors while leaving some people to remain and find a way to recondense the luck of the Innate Demon Gods. Primordial Desolate was not the only one; he was not even the only one from the Myriad Emperor World, but he was the only one remaining in this plane.

Once their people left, the upper dimension retaliated. They attacked the history of the lower dimension, removing 99% of all records., thus forcing all cultivation civilizations to die out and have to start over. They also forced the surviving Emperors to ascend, not giving them a chance to rebuild.

As such, only a few worlds were lucky enough to retain some information from before the Null Era.

Wang Wei opened his eyes and exhaled; these memories were valuable as he learned a few secrets. He also understood why it was always fuzzy when navigating the River of Time and seeing what had happened during the Null Era.

'I also understand why not many Great Emperors from that era are still alive,' he thought. After fighting and surviving that war, they were forced to ascend and participate in an even more terrible one. He knew how lucky someone must be to survive a war full of Paragons, Dao Rulers, Immortal Kings, and Heavenly Primarchs. And if the war was indeed about Acquired Life against Innate, Fiendgods may have participated.

After this experience, Wang Wei finally believed his ancestors, the Heaven Opening Emperor, words that he was not as bad as history portrayed him. And that's because the latter should have been a Paragon by the time Qiyuan ascended.

Qiyuan would never have had a chance if a Paragon was after him, especially since he had no foundation in the upper dimension.

"You did a good job," said Wang Wei to Wang Ju.

"As long as I can help you."

Wang Wei nodded, "Is there anything else?"

"I want to know your intentions with the Commerce Hub."

"Are you asking why I did not immediately attack them?"

"Yes. It's not like you," nodded Wang Ju.

"Your words explained why I'm not doing it,"

replied Wang Wei. "People know I don't like to face any loss, so it's obvious what my next step should be after the previous attack-retaliate against it."

Wang Wei smiled after he said these words. As a master of fate, he understood its manifestation is often very simple: a person's fate is the combination of their behavior patterns developed during their life. If someone knows someone well enough, they can predict the latter's fate by knowing how they will act or make decisions.

"Are you worried they will be prepared for an attack?"

"Even if they were prepared, it would not make a difference," explained Wang Wei. "My concern is they make it difficult for me to control the commerce."

The hub was a business, and using brute force to control was useless. Plus, Wang Wei was greedy and needed it perfectly intact when he controlled it.

"So, we are going to let them scott-free?"
