1475 A Little Restless

"Since we know he has it, can we demand its return?" an Elder asked.

"Don't say such a stupid thing. We know he has it, but where is the proof?"

"So, that's it? Do we have to wait until the ancestor returns to get it back? But even then, will he hand it over before he copies it?"

"No, we must do something," Elder Chen said before looking at Tong Ruobing: "How strong are you compared to Wang Wei?"

"His strength has always been higher, and given that his cultivation is much higher than mine, I doubt I have a chance at winning," Tong Ruobing replied truthfully.

"What about if you have a Primal Weapon?" Elder Chen asked.

"Do we have such a thing?"

"We were forced to seal it during the Moons' reign, but it can still be used," Elder Chen admitted.

Tong Ruobing pondered: "Does the Dao Opening Sect have a similar weapon? Or one close to that level?"

"They should," Elder Chen answered.

"Then, unless you can prevent them from using, it won't make much of a difference," she analyzed.

'That is a shame," Elder Chen sighed. Tong Ruobing was their most powerful fighter, and even if she were at her peak, Elder Chen did not think she could defeat her. _{frёeweɓηovel.coɱ}

"So, that's it?" the president asked.

"Diplomacy has failed, and force is not an option; there is nothing we can do directly about the artifact," she sighed deeply.

"Directly? Meaning there is something we can do?" The president swiftly asked.

"There are currently countless loose cultivators whose pride and sense of self have been inflated after becoming Paragons," Elder Chen muttered slowly. "It's only a matter of time before one of these imbeciles thinks they are strong enough to challenge an Overlord given our current weakened state. If these people discovered we were missing our Luck Artifact, they would think we were weak and emboldened to choose us as their target. We need to nip this kind of thinking in the bud."

"You want to stage a demonstration of strength?" the president asked.

"That's right."

"Who's the target?"

"The Southern Chu Dynasty," Elder Chen answered calmly. "We have the perfect excuse, so why not use it?"

"They are the perfect target," the president agreed. "But our research revealed some connection between them and the Qin Court. What if they intervene?"

"It will depend on Bing'er," Eldern Chen replied, looking at Tong Ruobing. "Are you more powerful than the Qin Court's new Paragons?"

"There was one prince who was slightly talented, but I doubt he would be much of a problem," Tong Ruobing answered.

"Good. You only need to assess the situation. If you think you can win, be aggressive and teach the Qin Court a lesson. Don't push it too far since we are only sending a message. However, if he's a real problem, you can back up a little and give them face."

The shadow disappeared, and Wang Wei started his work. He observed the blood intently and had to admit the association did a great job in the purification process. They used numerous methods, including Purification Arrays, Source Cleansing Talismans, Transformative Artifacts, and Flame Purifying Pills.

'There are even signs of other profession Dao methods of purification,' Wang Wei observed. 'However, it's not good enough.' At the [Existence] level, Wang Wei still noticed some hidden sections of this blood. For example, he learned that whoever is the original source of this blood can use it to spy on others. In other words, Ctulhun can spy on all its believers or people who are tainted by its power/blood.

'We can't have that," Wang Wei muttered before starting his own purification. He has discovered the best way to affect or influence the [Existence] is through Acupoints Techniques. However, this was a pile of blood with no acupoints. It took a moment to devise a method: he plans to create an Acupoint Technique that uses the body's atoms.

'This should work,' Wang Wei thought before trying. He locked himself in the room, trying to purify this blood to the best of his ability. However, less than five years after his retreat, he sensed something and looked into the distance. Kong stood opposite Paragon Jimin, and they were about to clash.

'The loose cultivators attacked the academy as well, and if I remember correctly, Jimin did not give them much face despite knowing Kong had a high chance of also becoming a Paragon,' Wang Wei analyzed. 'Now, it's revenge time?' He observed these two closely with squinted eyes; 'No, I have a feeling that it's not that simple. Ever since the trial, I have this feeling that Kong is slightly restless.'

The battle was anticlimactic. Kong easily suppressed Jimin and Old Ma, forcing the prideful Paragon to ask for help from Shu Niuanzu, the current ruler of the Southern Chu Dynasty. The former Third Prince came to repay his karma, but his presence made no difference.

Kong defeated three Paragons in a shocking display of power. Furthermore, he even captured Jimin and Old Ma, leaving the Third Prince to run away and hide under the protection of his dynasty's Qi Luck. Kong did not run after him but made a public declaration.

He first apologized for his actions, revealing why he acted in such a bold fashion, unbecoming of his character as a scholar. He followed that by inviting all the loose cultivators who had proven the Dao to become Paragon to a seminar held by his Emperor Enlightening Academy. He told them there were many secrets of the Paragon Realm, which these lineages kept to themselves, and he was willing to educate everyone.

'He's definitely planning something,' Wang Wei thought to himself before snapping his finger to summon his shadow. "Activate our spies in the academy. I need to know what he's planning "

"As you order."

Wang Wei continued his work, but less than 2 years later, another major fight took place. Tong Ruobing flew to the Southern Chu Dynasty, destroyed it, and captured Shu Nianzu. After these two events, more small-scale confrontations occurred all over the world.

'The lock hasn't been removed yet, and these people are already fighting each other,' Wang Wei shook his head. He wanted to ignore them but couldn't. He needed to ensure Supreme Unity was not secretly sowing discord as a last desperate attempt to return to the world.
