Chapter 1674 Challenging The Three Rulers' Authority.
1674 Challenging The Three Rulers' Authority.
At the moment, Felix's only option was to be mindful of his decisions and thoughts...He was unaware of when the changes would materialize and could only hope for the best.
"Even if it's just Asna, it doesn't mean the mission will be easier." Lady Sphinx returned to the main subject, not wanting Felix to grow paranoid about his developing personality.
"I know, but it will make it somewhat doable." Felix replied calmly as he gazed at the sea of techniques behind him, "I already have the initial plan in mind, plus necessary techniques and void creatures prepared for wishes. I need a great distraction to keep everyone's attention occupied, even the three rulers must fall for it."
"Distraction that works on even the three rulers..." Thor and the rest showed deep wrinkles on their forehead at such a bold aim.
"Is it possible to use a wish?" Candace suggested.
"Hiding from their eyes through wishes is one thing, but to create a distraction aimed at them? Even if I sacrificed all the void creatures and my citizens, I doubt the universe will give me what I want." Felix shook his head.
Felix didn't want to risk more than nine decades of cultivating void creatures for this moment, just to waste it on an uncertain wish.
"I see..." Candace lowered her head and went back to brainstorming with the rest...Alas, even with more than ten brains being involved, no one found anything that could work.
Having the three rulers occupied was simply unfathomable in their minds and no matter what idea came to them, their omnipotence destroyed it in the blink of an eye.
'What do I have that can affect them?' Felix murmured to himself as he dove into his memories.
Since he didn't have much, he was left with only the white and the black celestial flames. He eliminated the white flames since they could also utilize them.
With a smooth flick, a small black flame was ignited on top of his index finger. Felix gazed at the flickering flame with a concentrated look.
'Celestial black flames...What can I do with you to help me achieve my goal?' nove(l)bi(n.)com
As he looked at it, his mind worked a thousand times faster than the tenants...Even Lady Sphinx couldn't match his current analytical powers, making him technically smarter than her.
Suddenly, a ludicrous thought came to him regarding one of the black flames' most potent effects.
'This...This is it...' His pupils widened, reflecting the billions of images being translated into one unified plan.
It was like his plan was missing one final link and he had finally found it!
"I don't think I will be better prepared...I have already created all the required techniques to pull it off and had a dozen more for assistance. Adding more won't give me many viable options. As for the wishes? I already have enough void creatures for them and adding more won't help me with bigger wishes...Those are considered as abusing my powers and will force me to sleep no matter what I sacrificed." Felix remarked with a stern tone, "On the other hand, I am afraid I will lose my momentum and confidence the more I wait."
The fact that Felix wasn't being pressured to make a move by the three rulers might be seen as a positive, but at the same time, it was a deadly gift.
After all, the ball was in Felix's court and the more he questioned himself, the worse it would get down the path since he would keep postponing making his move.
"He is right." Lilith winked at Felix in support, "When it came to dealing with the three rulers, actions always beat perfection. No matter what you do or think, they will always have the upper hand on you."
"Aren't you then sending him to his damnation," Thor stated coldly.
"Let me finish..." Lilith continued, "But, I really think you might have a 1% chance of succeeding this time...With all of your plan's faults and risks, I genuinely think it has a decent shot of working if you execute it right."

The tenants considered her opinion of great importance since they understood that her fate was linked with Felix's.
If he died or got captured, it was game over for her too...If she wanted her freedom, then Felix had to reach the other side first. Thus, she could not be saying that to bait Felix into suicide.
"I ponder we have said enough, Felix. The ultimate word is up to you."
Thor and the rest didn't try to talk Felix out of it anymore.
"1% chance...That's lower than I anticipated." Felix murmured, knowing that if he failed, there would be no second chances...It would be game over once and for all.
Still...He sensed like his heart was calling for him to commit to it like it was his destiny to take part in it.
In the end, Felix closed his eyes and when he opened them again, there was no more hesitation in them.
"Give me all the information about the three rulers that I can take advantage of or at least be wary of." Felix requested with a cold tone as he eyed Lilith.
"So demanding...I love it." Lilith licked her lips in enjoyment as she replied, "You have it."
Felix wasn't stunned by this as he comprehended that Lilith could never let him deal with the three rulers unprepared, especially when her freedom depended on him.
His next piece of action was no longer targeting cores or talking with Asna, but her freedom!
In other words, he was going to challenge the three rulers' authority directly and this was something not many beings managed to live past it to tell the tale...
