Chapter 1173 New Enemy?
1173 New Enemy?
Limbo:
The Human Emperor opened its eyes as he sensed something. He wanted to descend to the lower dimension through a projection but remembered Heavenly Dao's blockade. Ying Zheng frowned. This time, he really could not postpone checking what was happening since his senses told him something important had occurred.
'I can either ask Maitreya for a favor or..." He summoned a jade pendant shaped like a butterfly with cracks scattered on its body, which ruined its beauty and preciousness. Ying Zheng squinted at the butterfly jade pendant. 'At this stage, there is no point in being too suspicious.'
He activated its power, instantly allowing him to see what was happening in the lower dimension. His eyes focused on Wang Wei.
"A Minor Three Realm Emperor?" he muttered, not hiding his surprise. He could barely accept someone becoming a Lesser Three Realm Emperor, meaning they've acquired the Three Karmic Position in one Heaven Will World. But now, he sees someone who has succeeded in getting acceptance or a position from the entire lower dimension.
"If I can get it from him, my plan will have a higher chance of success," Ying Zheng muttered. His original plan was long and convoluted. Luck was on his side, and he successfully transformed his Lesser Human Emperor into a True Human Emperor during the Devil Race's catastrophe. The next step was the others, but none of them were easy to acquire - especially in the Primary Source Chaos Worlds.
He once tried the Earth Emperor test before ascending to the upper dimension, but the Yama King told him his mind was as complicated as those of Dao Overlords; thus, he was disqualified. No matter what Ying Zheng tried, the latter refused and did not even allow him to take the test.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com
He had no choice but to change the plan. His divination told him the Myriad Emperor World was the place that would allow him to achieve his goal, and one day in the future, an opportunity to acquire the Lesser Heavenly Emperor Position would appear. Ying Zheng immediately left preparations using the Human Destiny Sword to ensure one of his pawns was the one who received the positions.
The plan was to take this Lesser Position and cultivate it into a Minor Position in the Upper Dimension, which was easier than stated, given how vast the Eternal Ascension World was and his current strength, status, and resources available. As long as he had the seed for the Lesser Position, the next evolution was not a problem.
"If I get the position from him, I don't have to waste any more effort on Shu Ren or have to think about the Heavenly Emperor Position. I only need to cultivate this Minor Three Realm Emperor Position into a Greater One in another Source Chaos World before attempting to become a True Emperor.
"And that might be easier than anticipated in the current situation," Ying Zheng thought with shining eyes. "As long as I convince True Heavenly Dao with the promise of becoming its ally against Supreme Unity, the plan will succeed. I will become as powerful as them."
Ying Zheng could not contain his excitement for a brief moment.
"Calm down. Convincing True Heavenly Dao will not be simple. The situation is perfect for me, but I might still need to make a binding vow to build credibility, but that's okay. As long as I can deal with Supreme Unity, I'll gain my freedom and preserve all my strength.' With him, Heavenly Dao, and Maitreya, Supreme Unity should have no choice.
Ying Zheng swiftly calmed down as he focused on Wang Wei. He squinted his eyes before becoming somber: "This kid is related to the Dao Opening Sect? It's not a good idea to get into these bastards' bad sides."
The only faction more powerful than the Dao Opening Sect is the Myriad Sect Alliance, but in a direct confrontation, it's hard to say who would win because the Dao Opening Sect is one sect and thus united, while the alliance - not so much.
The Qin Saint Court is among the [Thirteen Overlords], but its strength is in the middle and does not have the ability to confront the Dao Opening Sect - unless it finds other allies.
"Well, it just got more complicated," Ying Zheng muttered as he detected Wang Wei's strong karmic connection with Wu Hong. That woman's rise was legendary as she became the youngest Primal Paragon in the Eternal Ascension World's history.
"What? He's reincarnated from the Prehistoric World?' Ying Zheng's face twisted after deducing this truth. His body released a terrifying killing intent before suppressing it. "Is he a pawn Hongjun sent to deal with me?"
He did not know the truth, but his suspicious mind could not help but think of the worst possible situation or outcome.
"Do I have to kill this bastard?" Ying Zheng started weighing the pros and cons of this decision more seriously. Killing him would have severe consequences, which made him hesitate before, but this new information complicates things and even makes the risk worth it.
