Chapter 386-The Scheme (2)
Upon entering the Immortal Plane, Reyver found himself at the level of an Imperial Emperor.
Secluding himself for many years, he persisted until he reached the plane’s limit, achieving the status of a Semi-Saint Sovereign.
He then subdued the leader of the Monks, requiring a lackey to gather materials for his mission.
Though his powers were suppressed, Reyver held faith that he could accomplish his goals in this realm, given the relative weakness of its inhabitants compared to him.
He identified potential hosts and transferred the unique physiques to them.
However, his attempts ended in failure as the recipients succumbed prematurely, unable to withstand the power of the bestowed physique.
Reyver distributed the physique among numerous geniuses, witnessing their talents soar and their reputations grow.
Yet, his expectations fell short, as they remained trapped at the Imperial Saint Emperor level and perished of old age, unable to unlock the full potential of the bloodline and advance further in their cultivation.
Barred from reentering the Ashura Domain due to the nature of the sacrifice made for the one-way portal, Reyver’s desire to return home fueled his distress.
Retrieving the physiques, he sought more suitable hosts, struggling in futility for countless millennia.
His perseverance waned until he discovered that individuals from the Alexander Clan possessed the most potent bloodline in the Immortal Plane.
Reyver sensed that the strength of the bloodline directly correlated with the likelihood of success.
While the Alexander Clan was formidable, he regarded them as weak through his perspective.
His pride as a Divine Monarch remained intact, even though his powers in this plane did not reign supreme due to the presence of concealed powerhouses.
He resolved to abduct four geniuses from the main lineage of the Alexander Clan.
Yet, his plan was thwarted when he realized that the bloodline and the bestowed physique were in conflict, causing the blessings to become dormant.
This unforeseen situation left him shocked and powerless, considering killing the captives.
However, the Ancestor of the Alexander Clan noticed their disappearance, forcing Reyver to relinquish his hold and retreat into hiding.
Since the four individuals were a direct part of the clan’s lineage, their significance was paramount.
Reyver detected numerous Semi-Saint Sovereigns slumbering within the clan’s depths, leading him to exercise restraint. There is also a person sleeping in the deepest place which makes him feel wary.
Silently observing the four from the shadows, he began gathering resources and struck a deal with a greedy sword saint to assist him, recognizing the need for a partner in a plane with limited resources.
Silently constructing the formation, Reyver dedicated 5000 years to its completion, careful to remain unnoticed.
He identified a secluded location with minimal traffic, concealing the formation adeptly.
He held the belief that the inhabitants of this plane were inferior and would not discern the intricacies of the formation.
Patience became his virtue as he continued to wait, despite fatigue.
His devotion to his king and clan compelled him forward.
Over the span of 10,000 years, as the four individuals aged, one among them achieved True Saint status while the others remained at the Imperial Saint Emperor level.
The dilemma arose when he realized that the physiques he had bestowed lay dormant within them and didn’t show any signs of awakening.
Contemplating ending their lives despite the consequences, Reyver was taken aback to discover that the physiques he had granted were no longer within them.
Panic set in, only to be replaced by the realization that the physiques had been transferred to their young descendants, where they remained dormant.
Reyver initially believed his plan had failed, only to discover that the physique he had bestowed upon one individual was ultimately transferred to his granddaughter.
The bloodline of the Alexander Clan was thinner in her, enabling a perfect resonance with the bestowed physique.
The individual who received the Asure Dragon Physique was Hamon Alexander.
He married the daughter of Resco Alexander, who was 1000 years his senior and possessed the White Tiger Physique he also bestowed.
Among the others, Felon Alexander and Ashley Alexander held the Black Turtle and Fire Phoenix physiques respectively.
Reinvigorated by this revelation, Reyver patiently waited for many more years until the 3 younglings shows a small sign of awakening.
He eagerly waited until the appearance of the youngest among them, who bore the Fire Phoenix physique and displayed the highest level of talent.
The siblings with the Dragon and White Tiger physiques were older in age but also showed remarkable cultivation speed.
After numerous trials and errors, Reyver finally found the most suitable hosts.
He awaited their growth, aiming for them to achieve the minimum requirement of becoming True Saints.
Filled with hope, he planned to return home, assist their king in entering the Immortal Plane, and exact a massacre to regain his power.
He understood the depth of their king’s desire for revenge and believed that given more time, he too could attain that level.
However, an unexpected twist awaited him.
His meticulously laid plans were foiled by a handsome young man who interrupted his progress.
He felt despair and filled with unwillingness.
……..
Having gained a wealth of knowledge, Dave found himself faced with the stark reality of Ashura King’s shattered plan.
His curiosity lingered on the enigmatic figure addressed as “master” by the four spirit beasts.
However, the current state of those beings was marred by lost memories and diminished power.
Choosing to redirect his thoughts, Dave pushed aside these musings.
His immediate concern lay with the need to reprimand the bald monk.
Despite realizing that the monk had been under Reyver’s control, Dave felt compelled to hold him accountable for his insolence.
Collecting Reyver’s lifeless body, Dave stowed the blade within his spatial realm.
An air of mystique surrounded the blade, leaving Dave pondering whether a means existed to sever the soul binding connecting it to the Ashura King.
For the present, he decided to seal the blade within his spatial domain, postponing its resolution for a later time.
