Chapter 1269 The Other Foundations
n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
While dividing her mind into two to continue listening to the sermon, Wu Hong continued to deduce a better way to achieve the status of Immeasurable Emperor. In less than a second, her mind calculated a trillion possibilities, deducing countless ways for her plan. However, she did not like the solutions she came up with until the last one.
'This method is feasible, but it takes too long.' Her main issue was she did not have much time for that bastard to catch up to her, so it would be pointless to delay even more with a method that takes so long.
Wu Hong frowned until an idea flashed: 'How about I ask him?' She narrowed her eyes. It will reveal much about him depending on what he answers. So, she waited until the person after Immortal Venerable Six Swords finished their sermon to ask Wang Wei. She told him everything, including her deduction of the importance of the foundation at the Half-Step Transcendent Realm.
Meanwhile, Wang Wei looked at her with his mouth agape. He took a deep breath to calm down: "Let me see if I get this correctly: you were inspired to improve your foundation to prevent me from beating you, no, rightfully get my revenge. But now, you're asking me how to prevent fulfilling my lifelong dream?"
"How you summarize the situation makes it much more dramatic than it actually is."
"But it is this dramatic," Wang Wei said. "In my life, there is only one opponent I've never beaten, and it's you. And you expect me to help you continue beating me?" He did not hide his frustration, pain, and suffering.
"You're such a drama king," Wu Hong rolled her eyes. "So, what idea do you have?"
Wang Wei grunted as he caressed his temple. 'She definitely spied on me somehow. Should I bring it up? Forget it. There is no point in fighting for something like that.'
"Well, you can't use the causality-free clone — that's obviously a big pit." Wu Hong did not mention the downside of this method in detail, but Wang Wei could see it. He could deduce how many suckers suffered under this method.
A few of them probably thought they were clever and tried to use reincarnation to better hide their clone by giving them a recognized identity. However, that is another suicide move. They might be lucky if they successfully hide that clone from the Yama Kings, but if they do not, then they are screwed.
If any of these bastards have ever offended the Yama King or even gained their hostility for any reason, they can kiss that clone goodbye. And even if the Yama Kings don't do anything to it personally, they can just secretly release the news to the enemies of the original owner.
But that's not the worst of it. Even if they could hide it from the Yama Kings, could they hide it from the Samsara Cardinal? So, sending a causality-free clone through reincarnation is like sending your weakness to a higher being.
'Yes. I can follow her path of training someone with the Thirteen Transcendent Foundation, then re-establish my foundation, and seal and absorb their power to reduce the risk,' Wang Wei planned. He drooled thinking about the day she thought she was invincible, and he showed up with his newfound strength.
"I just thought of something, help me deduce it," Wang Wei said with a gentle smile. However, Wu Hong did not like that cocky smile, feeling something was about to happen. Her intuition was correct. After hearing Wang Wei's plan for new foundations, the only thing left in her mind was: 'This damn bastard!'
"What do you think?"
"It's feasible." She had to squeeze these words out of her mouth. It was already a time-sensitive issue for her to make up for those other foundations, but now there were more. It did not help that with the Mortalhood Trial, this bastard would enter the Paragon Realm too soon for her liking.
"Hehehe," Wang Wei chuckled. "Accept your fate of being dominated. Soon, you'll know what it's like to be in my shoes."
"You're too arrogant too quickly," Wu Hong snorted coldly. "Foundation is not everything as it represents more potential. There are many ways in this vast universe to make up the gap of strength."
"Whatever helps you sleep at night," Wang Wei sneered. "Now, can you help me deduce if there are any potential problems with my idea?"
Wu Hong snorted coldly before closing her eyes and deducing. A few hundred years into the sermon, she opened her eyes, her complexion not looking good.
"What happened?" Wang Wei asked after noticing she had woken up.
"It's not as simple as you had imagined," Wu Hong stated. "You cannot just skip to the so-called Thirteen Transcendent Foundation. Instead, you must experience Dao Foundation Re-Establishment for each, and the difficulty will rise with each one, along with the chances of experiencing true death."
"Given how Grand Dao operates, I should have expected this," Wang Wei nodded. The risk would not stop him. "But why is your face like this? This news is not enough to rattle you — unless..." the smirk on his face was evident, and Wu Hong wanted to slap him.
She was annoyed because she would have to waste even more time now. Previously, she thought she could skip the Ten Supremacy Foundation and go directly to thirteen, but now, she knew this was impossible. In other words, she would have to waste even more time catching up.
'Should I focus on becoming a transcendent while he's reinforcing his foundation? No, that would be putting the cart before the wool.' According to her deductions, these foundations will bring immense benefits to the next realm, especially by combining the Thirteen Transcendent Foundation and the Perfection Foundation.
If she's correct, once they enter the realm with such a solid foundation, they'll be able to defeat at least ten people on the level of Maitreya and Supreme Unity, who used flawed methods, and five people who used flawless methods. And that's not counting the benefit of the Battle Taboo Realm.
