After returning to his home, Wang Wei pondered on how to acquire the information about the secrets of the [Flame Controlling Art]. By now, he had a few theories and guesses about the origin ad purpose of this technique, unfortunately, he did not have enough evidence.
Intuition told him that this cultivation technique might be related to his purpose in infiltrating this sect.
So, after making a preliminary plan, he moved on to something else.
Today, during the test, one of the participants caught his attention; to be precise, the pill he refined caught his attention. The guy refined a pill called Divine Organs Replacement Pill.
In the Human Stage of the Divine Body Realm, tempering the organs is one of the most difficult processes. Unlike the other body parts, once injured, it is very difficult to heal and could lead to permanent damage.
If not tempered the appropriate amount, then once a cultivator break through the Shattered Void Realm and their bodies are baptized by the law, then their organs will collapse leading to instant death.
This is where the Divine Organs Replacement Pill came into place. Once consumed, a cultivator can instantly grow a fake "divine organ" capable of withstanding the power of Law.
Of course, using this pill met that your foundation is not solid, and the Void Shattering Realm will be the end of the cultivation path. Furthermore, there is also a high chance of failure when doing this.
Nevertheless, for many people with poor talent, this pill is a lifesaver for them.
Before coming here, Wang Wei had heard about this pill but never saw one; this is because the recipe is exclusive only to the Origin Pill Dao Sect.
After watching that disciple refine that pill, he finally realized an important aspect of his infiltration that he had overlooked: his situation was the best possible time for him to steal many of the secret recipes that the Dao Opening Sect did not have, and bring them back.
In terms of alchemy or other professional heritage, the Dao Opening Sect has a complete heritage that goes all the way to the Emperor Tier. This is all because of the effort of the second Great Emperor of the Li family: Li Zheng, who took the name Miscellaneous Study Emperor.
As his name suggested, this emperor was interested in studying many things during his life. He studied pill refinement, talisman making, weapon forging, formation, divination, Yin-Yang Calculation, puppeteering, medicine nurturing, beast breeding, beast controlling, etc.
He went as far as studying things like literature, poem, calligraphy, chess, military development, and many more. With his long lifespan and talent, he studies too many things.
Although he proved the Dao with the Five Elements and created the [Five Elements Foundation Scripture], he did not stop studying all kinds of miscellaneous things after becoming a Great Emperor.
One of the reasons that the Dao Opening Sect has so many pill recipes, knowledge about runes that allowed them to cultivate professionals on their own is because of him; the Miscleanoud Study Emperor singlehandedly increased the foundation of the sect.
Despite this, it did not change the fact that compared to sects that specialize in different professions, the sect was still lacking in many aspects. However, Wang Wei discovered that he had the perfect opportunity to close the gap with these specialized sects and further increase the foundation of his own sect—well, at least, when it comes to alchemy.
After making this realization, he decided to learn as many recipes as possible while here; if necessary, he has to use his status as the disciple of the sect master to his advantage.
So, with a complete plan for the future, he got back to his alchemy; he was also taking this time to study the other profession as well. In recent years, he has been slacking.
…
Heavenly Abode Realm:
Li Jun looked at the disciple in front of him, "Is it done?"
"Yes. After more than a year and countless resources, it's finally finished."
"In that case, it's time to begin."
Because of the difference in Time Flow, although only three months passed in the Myriad Emperor World, a year and a half passed in this world.
During this time, the Gods have been searching for Li Jun's group nonstop. Well, at first they were.
After searching for a few months and not discovering anything, the majority of these gods started to give up. To them, they were mighty and lofty divine beings, how could they waste their time doing something as lowly as searching.
Unfortunately, this world was very hierarchical. Since the Supreme Gods had others to search, they could not openly disobey. So, the Title Gods started to do the bare minimum while ordering the Void Gods under them to search with their full strength.
At first, the Void Gods did so, but after not their search was proven futile, they also started to do the bare minimum while ordering the True Gods under them to their best searching.
In that way, things started to escalate as the upper Gods ordered their subordinates to do their best while they slacked off. In the end, only the little Divine Shrine cultivators who were only slightly more powerful than mortals were forced to search with all their strength.
As for the Supreme Gods, the majority also did not care. They thought that maybe the Outsiders already left their world. When it came to the Destiny Goddess's prophecy, they believed that she might have been wrong.
If not for the fact that she brought up Mother God during the council meeting, not many people would have believed her anyway.
Today was ordinary for the people of the Heavenly Abode World–even the Gods thought so as well. Many of them were doing their usual daily 30 minutes to hour investigation before returning to their Heavenly Abode.
However, something out of their control occurred.
In the Death Realm governed by the Death God, countless circles with runes inside of them rose from the ground into the sky; there were thousands of them covering the entire realm.
"Formation?" muttered the Death God with an ugly look on his face. He immediately wanted to act, but it was too late.
The formation activated and surrounded the entire Death Realm. Immediately, the Gods felt a change between Heaven and Earth–especially the Void Gods and above.
They could not get access to their Heavenly Abode; meaning that they could no longer use its power to increase their strength, heal themselves or replenish their divine energy, and they cannot use the power of space
More importantly, they cannot even enter their Heavenly Abode as the formation blocked the space. The Gods inside these abodes found themselves stuck and unable to leave.
A dark energy wave suddenly appeared in the sky, then a middle-aged man dressed in black clothes appeared in the sky: he was the Death God. Because his Heavenly Abode is fused with him, he used his power of Law to break the space restriction.
Unfortunately, only he could leave. The good news was that he could still use the power of his abode.
As the Death God looked at his realm, he could see countless armies surrounding different strategic places, mostly areas in the Death Kingdom where the power of incense is most concentrated.
Just like the Fire Realm, the most powerful force in the Death Realm is a kingdom created by the Death God and ruled by his descendants. Most Supreme Gods used this political structure as a way to rule their realms and make it easier for them to gather incense.
With a single glance, he judged based on these armies' aura that they were elite and well trained, and his Gods were not matched for them. So, he prepared to intervene.
However, as soon as this idea came to his mind, a young handsome man wearing a golden red armor appeared in front of him. Upon first contact, the Death God could feel a terrifying fighting intent from this young man, followed by a familiar breath.
After pondering for a moment, he realized that this breath was similar to his: it was the breath of death.
"You must be the Outsider who invaded our world."
"That's correct," replied Li Jun with a calm smile on his face as he looked up and down at his opponent.
"You know, things do not have to be so complicated and bloody. As long as you Gods agree to cooperate with us, we can leave this world after our goal is accomplished, and you can continue to rule as much as you want."
"And what goal would that be?"
"I decline to comment."
"Hehe," laughed the Death God sarcastically. "Your words are not sincere. If you really wanted to cooperate, you should have contacted us and stated your terms and conditions."
"You are partially correct about this. However, one of the fundamental truths of the universe is that only people of equal strength can negotiate with one another."
The Death's God's face became ugly as he said with a slightly raised voice:
"So, you guys want to kill the most powerful God to display your power, then advocate for communication and diplomacy?"
Li Jun paused for a moment, "To be honest, we did not know that you were the most powerful God. We chose to attack you simply because your realm is the largest territory of all the Supreme Gods."
This answer infuriated the Death God. His opponent's meaning is obvious.. To them, it did not matter how powerful the Gods were; they could all be killed.
