The moment Wang Wei entered the secret realm, he felt a terrifying killing intent rush into his mind, trying to affect his mind and soul.
“This kind of killing intent is enough to affect Immortal Venerables,” he muttered before looking around. The sky was entirely red, and he saw the ground bathed in blood. He scanned the surrounding with his Divine Sense and found no bodies.
There were countless broken weapons on the floor, the primary source of the killing intent. Deep in the north was a small pond of golden blood, shining brightly even after trillions of years.
“Innate Treasure, and an Extreme One. A broken Chaos Treasure, this should be a broken Emperor Artifact,” commented Wang Wei as he walked around the secret realm.
“The ancient era was truly a wonderful time, full of talents and resources,” he commented before sitting cross-legged in the sky. He waved his hand, and all these broken treasures flew above him. He turned his Proving Dao Artifact into a cauldron before putting in a broken Innate Treasure inside, refining it.
The process was not as easy as Wang Wei expected. The remnant Wills of these weapons from their masters resisted being refined and nourishing another weapon.
‘This might take a little longer than expected,’ thought Wang Wei before waving his hand to establish a Time Formation; the time inside the secret realm will be faster than the outside.
Then, he focused on dealing with the remnant Wills. He refined treasure after treasure. He refined all the broken Innate and Chaos Treasures in just a hundred years. And through competition with these remnants, he also tempered his mind and Will a little.
Wang Wei opened his eyes as he looked at the cauldron. His Proving Dao Artifact had a mysterious aura similar to chaos. The strength had drastically improved, but that was not the main point. He could feel the artifact had become an embryo, waiting for a catalyst to transform into something extraordinary.
“Grand Dao Baptism,” muttered Wang Wei. As long as he proved the Dao and underwent the baptism, his Proving Dao would become a potent weapon that would give him at least a 5% boost in battle prowess.
“Excellent,” said Wang Wei before standing up. He looked around, and there were still many weapons left. However, they were broken Emperor Artifacts, and he did not dare refine them.
He waved his hand to put them into his space ring before teleporting before the golden pool of blood.
“Numerous Innate Demons and Primordial Gods’ bloodline, perfectly combined and preserved,” he uttered with shining eyes. “Perfect to cultivate the [Fiendgod 12 Revolutions].”
He absorbed the bones of a Dragon after he reconstructed his body. So, he planned to induce bloodline from the bones to cultivate the 12 Revolutions. Or hunt the sleeping Primordial God in the Blood Earth Forbidden Land. However, things will be easier with this blood pool. So, he waved his hand to put it away.
Wang Wei then raised his hand to condense all the killing and slaughter aura in this secret realm. After the clean-up and meeting with Wrath, Wang Wei suggested Li Jun create a weapon similar to Wrath’s by condensing the Killing Aura between Heaven and Earth. The sect has plenty of slaughter aura, but it’s not enough for such an ominous weapon. So, he sent the elders and disciples to search and gather more; he told them to focus on the Western Continent since there was plenty of it.
After putting away the slaughter aura, Wang Wei mobilized his Time Law and used a technique: Time Record. The secret realm shook before an illusory image appeared in the sky.
Four people who seemed to be leaders faced each other with countless people behind them. On the right side were a Qilin with red scales and an enormous humanoid creature with four wings and two horns. On the left side was a human with an intense aura, the power of the Five Elements Grand Dao Source. The other on the left was a tiger demon race. He also had the power of Grand Dao Source, and it was a weird Flame-related one.
Wang Wei took a moment to sense it and concluded it was a combination of Flame, Soul, Pain, and a little bit of Destruction.
‘Infernal Dao?’ he thought before focusing on the battle.
“I’ll deal with Infernal Tiger,” said the Qilin with hatred in its eyes. Their Innate Demon race created the demon race to serve them and help them win this war. But they betrayed the Innate Race and joined the Acquired Side. Furthermore, he had enmity with the tiger.
“Deal with me? Are you worthy?” replied Infernal Tiger with a sneer.
He raised his hand to manifest a little golden sword before sending it toward the Winged Primordial God, who reacted quickly, mobilized his Wind Innate Law, and created a black wind tornado. The sword slashed through the tornado, but its strength was drastically reduced. So, the Winged Primordial God punched the remaining sword into obliteration.
He frowned because he was slightly weaker in this brief introduction. This was not the first time he fought with Yellow Scarf Emperor, and the latter became stronger each time. During their first encounter, he almost killed the latter. But now, he lost in a direct confrontation.
‘The growth rate of Acquired Race is too fast compared to us. They must be annihilated,’ he thought. Heaven and Earth are fair and focus on balance. Innate Lifeforms have powerful bodies and long life spans, but their comprehension is subpar. Meanwhile, humans are naturally born weak, but their natural understanding is higher than Innate Lifeforms.
Even the demon race– a combination of Innate and Acquire Lifeforms– has a higher average understanding than Innate Liforms, albeit not nearly as good as humans.
The Qilin opened its mouth to spew an incredibly powerful white flame. However, the Infernal Tiger replied by spewing a black flame that easily overwhelmed the attack, knocking a few of the Qilin’s scale as it groaned in pain.
“You!” roared the Qilin.
“You, Innate Lifeforms, considered yourself the darlings of Heaven and Earth since some of you only need to sleep to grow powerful. However, is that really true?” said Infernal Tieger with a sneer.
When he was a little Tier 9 cultivator, if a senior of the human race did not save him, he would not be here today. However, this Qilin was not his opponent a few million years later.
The people behind them joined as soon as the leaders began to fight. The weakest of these individuals was the 1-Leaf Immortal Sovereign. Wang Wei could not describe his shock as he watched this Heavning Shaking Battle. The perfect way to describe the situation is the stars became dim, the world trembled, the laws became chaotic, and the Dao dispersed.
The Acquired Lifeform had the advantage during the battle until another Innate Demon who looked like an ox showed up. The Yellow Scarf Emperor sacrificed a Five Elements Array to imprison the Winged Primordial God and the Ox, giving Infernal Tiger an opportunity–which he took.
The tiger killed the Qilin, but the latter used a secret technique to counter-attack before its death, severely injuring Infernal Tiger. Meanwhile, Yellow Scarf could not hold on for long as he, too, was injured controlling the formation. So, they two retreated with their surviving members.
Wang Wei exhaled as he finally understood the power of a Great Emperor; he truly understood why so many pursue that slim chance of proving the Dao. It’s not the long life span but the unimaginable power.
“I finally have proof the Heavenly Dap Path can be on par with Great Emperor,” he muttered, thinking deeply. “This could mean that people like Ao Shen and Huo Fenghuang with Innate Law could acquire the power of Tier 10.”
He frowned for a moment before smiling brilliantly, “The future will truly be interesting. My era will not lose to the ancient time.”
Wang Wei took out a talisman and recorded this great battle. He plans to use it to brainwash the next generation of demons and the human race, telling them how our ancestors used to fight side by side for a common goal.
Finally, Wang Weu purified the remaining baleful aura in this secret realm and left for the East Lotus Sect. In a few years, this place will turn into a Holy Land for cultivation, and once they discover it, their sects might rise in the future and even one day become an Emperor Lineage.
Wang Wei left the secret realm without alarming anyone. Before entering, he had already made it look like he had already departed. He calculated the time and found out that only a year had passed outside.
So, he opened the space and teleported away. His destination was not back home but the Chrono Chaos Realm. He wanted to verify something he’d been putting off for quite some time.
