Chapter 769 - 763: Plotting the World Honored Dao Fruit

Wa Huang knew that Buddha Prison and Demon Lord intended to use the Peacock Great Ming King to steal the Buddha’s Dao Fruit.

Buddha and Demon Lord’s strength was almost completely gone, and their condition wasn’t as good as Wa Huang’s.

Even if they obtained the World Honored Dao Fruit, it wouldn’t pose a threat to Wa Huang.

Thinking of this, Wa Huang nodded and replied, "Since it’s something I agreed to, naturally I won’t go back on my word."

"But, I don’t know what feasible plan you have."

The Buddha looked at Wa Huang and said, "This matter is simple. I’ve investigated, and the Peacock Great Ming King is Lin Yuan’s father-in-law, whom Lin Yuan trusts greatly."

"Originally, when the Peacock Great Ming King entered your Wa Huang’s Palace, he was forced to do so."

"We just need the Peacock Great Ming King to cooperate with us in staging a bitter trick, then let him escape from Wa Huang’s Palace."

"This way, it would be enough to gain Lin Yuan’s trust."

Sometimes, strategies don’t need to be overly complex.

The identity of the Peacock Great Ming King alone is enough to make Lin Yuan trust.

In the Buddha’s view, Lin Yuan doesn’t know that the Peacock Great Ming King has fallen under Wa Huang’s Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique, so he has no reason to doubt the Peacock Great Ming King.

Wa Huang is also very confident in his Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique, believing that the Peacock Great Ming King would not break free from his control.

"It’s worth a try." Wa Huang agreed.

After Wa Huang and the Buddha discussed the specifics of the plan, they immediately summoned the Peacock Great Ming King.

Wa Huang did not hide anything, informing the Peacock Great Ming King of what he and the Buddha had discussed.

After speaking, Wa Huang emphasized to the Peacock Great Ming King, "You are now a disciple of Wa Huang’s Palace and should consider its interests."

"All the past must be severed."

While saying this, Wa Huang deliberately controlled the Celestial Heart Dao Seed planted within the Peacock Great Ming King.

At that moment, the Peacock Great Ming King’s eyes became dazed.

However, at the instant the Celestial Heart Dao Seed activated, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark left by Yin Celestial Son within the Peacock Great Ming King also activated.

The ability of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark counteracted the ability of the Celestial Heart Dao Seed.

The Peacock Great Ming King’s consciousness returned to normal, yet he continued to feign a dazed expression.

"Naturally!"

"As a disciple of Wa Huang’s Palace, everything should be prioritized for its benefit." The Peacock Great Ming King said dully.

Hearing these words, Wa Huang nodded in satisfaction.

In Wa Huang’s eyes, the Peacock Great Ming King was her puppet; if she asked him to go east, he would definitely not go west.

"Later, I will officially declare you as a traitor."

"Once you are imprisoned, I will give you a chance to escape."

"At that time, you should seize the opportunity to return to Lin Yuan, ascertain the whereabouts of the World Honored Dao Fruit, and retrieve it."

"Do you understand?" Wa Huang asked.

The Peacock Great Ming King nodded and replied, "I understand."

Wa Huang was very pleased, believing that her plan was about to succeed.

Little did she know, their scheme was clearly overheard by Yin Celestial Son through the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark.

...

...

The Underworld.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation area.

Lin Yuan and Yin Celestial Son were contemplating how to find the opportune time and circumstances to enter the Void.

It was at this moment that Yin Celestial Son sensed the disturbance of Wa Huang’s Celestial Heart Dao Seed within the Peacock Great Ming King.

Without any hesitation, to prevent the Peacock Great Ming King from being controlled, Yin Celestial Son immediately used the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark to counteract the Celestial Heart Dao Seed’s ability.

Meanwhile, Wa Huang was explaining to the Peacock Great Ming King the details of their plan.

Upon hearing Wa Huang’s words, Yin Celestial Son was overjoyed.

Indeed, you seek something to the ends of the earth, only to find it effortlessly.

While he was looking for an opportunity, Wa Huang presented it to him.

Wa Huang and the others wanted the World Honored Dao Fruit, so Yin Celestial Son could use the Dao Fruit to accomplish something.

Yin Celestial Son’s Divine Sense returned, reporting everything he heard to Lin Yuan without omitting anything.

After listening to Yin Celestial Son, Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "They want the World Honored Dao Fruit?"

"World Honored was just one step away from becoming the Lord of Heaven and Earth. Born into the world, with the World Honored Dao Fruit, they might find a way around the past vows and step into the world."

This was why, after Lin Yuan acquired the World Honored Dao Fruit, he sealed and suppressed it.

No matter what, the World Honored Dao Fruit must not fall into Wa Huang and their hands.

Yin Celestial Son nodded, clearly sharing the same thought as Lin Yuan.

Since Wa Huang, Demon Lord, Buddha, and the others so desire the World Honored Dao Fruit, it implies that this item is key to their ambitions for the world.

And it offers considerable assistance.

"The more they desire the World Honored Dao Fruit, the more we can leverage it."

"They plan to use the bitter trick? Well then, let’s counter it with their strategy."

"By using the World Honored Dao Fruit to lure Wa Huang, Demon Lord, Buddha to the boundary between the world and the Void, during the distraction, you can sneak into the Void and head to Returning Ruins." Yin Celestial Son shared his thought.

Once Lin Yuan enters the Void, he simply needs to quickly traverse it to enter Returning Ruins, where Fat Old Man’s support awaits.

Then, even if Wa Huang, Demon Lord, Buddha realize and pursue, they cannot thwart Lin Yuan.

Within Returning Ruins, there are Fat Old Man and Array Spirits formed by the Void Race, requiring Wa Huang, Demon Lord, Buddha to think twice before acting directly.

Should the entire Void be shattered, it would lead to a mutual destruction, an all-or-nothing scenario.

"That’s indeed a viable method."

"But using the World Honored Dao Fruit as bait, what if it truly gets taken by them?"

"It wouldn’t be good for us!" Lin Yuan hesitated.

The World Honored Dao Fruit concerns heaven and earth; if it were lost, Wa Huang, Demon Lord, Buddha might extend their reach further into the world.

The world is Lin Yuan’s basic ground, his stronghold.

If he loses the world to gain Returning Ruins, it would be akin to trading a watermelon for a sesame seed.

Yin Celestial Son, as a Tier One Powerhouse, naturally anticipated what Lin Yuan considered.

"Wa Huang, Buddha, Demon Lord are merely the planners of the scheme."

"The actual executor is the Peacock Great Ming King."

"They believe the Peacock Great Ming King is theirs, but in reality, he is ours."

"Thus, whether the World Honored Dao Fruit we offer is genuine or not is irrelevant."

"As long as the Peacock Great Ming King provides feedback that they obtained the World Honored Dao Fruit, it will naturally attract them." Yin Celestial Son paused: "Of course, if we can deceive them into wasting their efforts studying the Dao Fruit, that would be ideal."

"I plan to create two replicas resembling the appearance and aura of the World Honored Dao Fruit, hoping to fool them for a while."
