679 Devil's Purpose
Wang Wei flew to the Greed Territory before landing. He did not have a map, but he could calculate the places he had to go with limited results. He flew to the nearby mountains, forests, and even some cities. After finishing, he flew to the Envy Territory and repeated the process.
After doing this for all seven territories, Wang Wei had a pondering look. ‘Let’s make a final check.” He flew to a nearby mountain and set up a formation. Subsequently, he sent a projection to leave this subcontinent and headed to the Nine Devil God World to look at the situation.
Seven Deadly Sins Conference:
“He stopped in my territory,” said Pride.
“Don’t be as stupid as Lust and attack him,” commanded Wrath.
“I know.”
“The question is, how does he have such mobility?” asked Greed. “Did he use the same method as Yi Lianchang?”
“No, he used his Disorder Dao to give a special title,” analyzed Wrath. “A title that granted him mobility by sacrificing something.”
“Can he do that?”
“With a high enough understanding of Order-Disorder Dao.”
p、A,nd A-n、o、ve,1 “Luckily, he is the only one that cultivates this Dao to this level,” added Sloth.
“None of that matters,” said Gluttony. “With his intelligence, it’s only a matter of time before he discovers our plan. We need to prepare what to do after this?”
Everyone agreed with him, so they looked at Wrath, who sighed: “We may not have many options.”
“Can’t you stop him?” asked Envy.
“Of course not,” replied Wrath.
“Even with Devil Retribution Sword?”
“The sword is not readied yet. And even if it was, I won’t know the final result until I subdue it,” replied Wrath, stressed as she caressed her temple. “Dismiss, and we will intervene at a later date. Stay away from Wang Wei if he ever comes to your base.”
Wrath opened her eyes from the main room of her castle. She stood up and fixed her clothes before heading to a special room with a formation. After activating it, she waited a few seconds before a shadowy figure appeared.
She bowed with the utmost politeness, “Master.”
“What has happened?”
“Here is the current situation….”
“I see,” said the figure before sighing deeply. “Maybe, this is fate.”
“Master–”
“You don’t need to say anything.” The figure looked at his favorite disciple. Wrath was the first of the other seven. He met her long before the others and personally trained her. The shadowy figure allowed her to inherit his most powerful Dao: Heaven Eradicating Dao.
He told her about the Nine Extremity Dao Foundation and watched over her during her reincarnation. He ensured the reincarnation was not random and she could establish her foundation in the shortest time possible.
Unfortunately, Empress Wu’s seal was difficult for him to completely nullified in his current state, so it affected Wrath during her reincarnation, making her fail the process. Luckily, Wrath was not discouraged and thought of creating the Devil Retribution Sword to make up for her strength.
Then, the figure met the other six and had her participate in a trial to show her dominance. Once he gathered the seven, they began the plan.
“I don’t have much time left,” said the figure.
“Master,” said Wrath, with tears falling from her eyes. She remembered when she was nothing but a young devil, starving in the Nine Devil God World. Her master gave her food, shelter, and strength to protect herself and the people she cared for. During her long life, her master has always been with her.
“You have the bad habit of relying on me when things get too difficult. I will no longer be here, so you have to deal with this situation yourself.”
“I-I will.”
“Disciple, I’m sorry.”
“You don’t have to be.”
“But I am. I should never have forced my dreams, hopes, and regrets on you.”
“I am willing.”
The figure shook his head. What choice did that starving little girl have?
“You need to take care of yourself from now. Remember, you’re safety is more important than the plan.” The shadowy figure looked in the Pride Territory direction before disappearing.
Wrath breathed deeply before wiping the tears from her eyes. She knew this moment would arrive one day; she did not expect it to come when things were so close to success. After calming her emotions, a look of determination appeared before leaving the room.
…
Wang Wei opened his eyes, “As predicted.” One of his working theories was correct: The devil race in this continent wanted to sacrifice the Nine Devil God World to the Myriad Emperor World in exchange for accepting their status as a sub-species of humans with devil bloodlines. This plan is why most devils in this continent have a human bloodline; some can even be considered pure humans with devil bloodlines.
If this plan succeeded, not only would the crime of the devil’s race be pardoned, the Seven Sins Kings will be allowed to participate in the Heaven Will Battle and prove the Dao.
Wang Wei frowned as the situation became complex. He divined something and sighed with disappointment, “Only 2? Not enough.” After absorbing the Nine Devil God World, the Myriad Emperor World will only give birth to 2 Heaven Will.
This should be good news for Wang Wei since he could split the final battle with Di Tian without competing. However, this result would affect his plan for Li Jun and Yan Liling.
‘Should I let them compete in the generations after my father instead? We have the Karma Washing Water even if I’m not here?’ thought Wang Wei. After all, he was not entirely sure he could defeat Di Tian since the latter had a higher chance of reaching Ten Extremity than him.
If there was no need to fight and he could prove the Dao, why not take this opportunity? After all, who wants to work hard for something they could easily acquire? Who wants to take risks in uncertain things when something else is guaranteed? So, the answer was obvious. He should…
‘No, I cannot have this mindset,’ thought Wang Wei, who woke up from this temptation. ‘My cultivation path will not be easy or smooth. And Di Tian is nothing but of the many obstacles I must overcome.’
His mind cleared, and he began to analyze this choice more rationally. Li Jun’s role would allow him to gather a ton of merit, so he needed someone with the appropriate strength and someone he could trust. Meanwhile, Yan Liling will be part of the protocol to ensure the longevity of his era, allowing him to benefit from the era’s luck for a long period after he ascends.
If they have to prove the Dao after his father’s generation, too many unpredictable variables could happen, and it’s not guaranteed they would prove the Dao then. Meanwhile, if he refined the Nine Devil God World, these two are guaranteed to succeed.
Additionally, his plan of making these two Emperors is a way to deal with the Twelve Emperor Curse. Li Jun and Yan Liling will be the sect’s 11th and 12th Emperors, and his father will be the 13th.
After his training, his father should have 5-Root strength once he completes his Nine Extremity Foundation. As such, once he participates in the Heaven the next generation’s Heaven Will Battle, Heavenly Dao will not have much time to scheme against the sect, nor would it be able to do much against Wang Tian’s overwhelming strength.
The best course of action Heavenly Dao can take is to skip the next generation as it did before. However, Wang Tian can still wait for another generation and would still win. Wang Wei has decided to modify Samsara to prevent anyone practicing Nine Extremity from reincarnating in the Myriad Emperor World in the next few generations.
In conclusion, only if a Heaven Chosen who has the unorthodox Nine Extremity Foundation showed up in the next few generations would Heavenly Dao have a slight chance at stopping Wang Tian from proving the Dao and breaking the curse.
‘If only there were other worlds similar to devil worlds left,’ thought Wang Wei. From what he learned from his wife, after the devil race’s downfall, other planes placed pressure on three different planes that had a similar composition to the Nine Devil God World, where multiple Emperors existed at once; they forced these worlds to revert to a system of one Emperor per generation.
‘Maybe things have changed, and there is some new world?’ However, he shook his head since there was no way to know as of now. His Fate Shadow Guard had access to a few hundred World Communities because of the Commerce Hub. However, there were 3000 Communities in the lower dimension, and it was not easy to gather information on all of them.
Furthermore, there is a reason it would be easy for him to refine the Nine Devil God World; it’s because the generational clean-ups have caused a strong karmic bond between these two worlds, making them deeply interconnected. Other places did not have this connection.
Anyways, he made his choice and will accept the result. He had the utmost confidence in himself that he would be the final winner. Wang Wei took this opportunity to check on the Science and Technology World. The scientists had already created the Ninth Stage Genetic Warrior and were working on Quasi-Emperors before tackling the Emperor’s Blood.
‘I need to convince Heavenly Dao to refuse this merger. Otherwise, I’ll have to do something to lose the Son Era Title.’ This was the best solution to the current problem.
Wang Wei prepared to contact Heavenly Dao and negotiate when he sensed something.
“Who is there?”
