Novel Full 695 Chaos (IV)
Tong Ruobing looked at the people who attacked her and frowned. Her complexion was still pale from her defeat at Wrath’s hands. She did not care for most of the others, but the leader of this group gave her a sense of danger. She guessed even if she were in perfect health, it would be challenging to deal with him.
She calmly tapped her toes on the ground, and an enormous formation appeared above the sky. After her loss, she learned from her mistake and prepared backhands to fight more powerful opponents and create more escape opportunities.
With the formation, she was able to bind the powerful group leader. Tong Ruobing knew she could not kill the latter, but it will also take some time to get out of that formation.
As a Talisman Master with a unique rune physique, her ability for arrays was close to her talisman talent. She waved her finger to manifest two talismans: [Suppression Talisman] and [Soul Searching Talisman].
‘People from the Beast Master World?’ A Heaven Will World focused on controlling beasts or demons and fighting with them. Their stages of cultivation involved controlling more beasts and growing or evolving their bloodline.
Furthermore, the beastmaster can receive feedback from their blinds with their beast to increase their body and soul and have numerous Divine Abilities. Some talented people are even born with an accompanying beast–some of which can have Innate or even Chaos bloodlines. As long as they can purify their beasts’ bloodline, they will have the strength of an Innate Demon God.
‘Someone is plotting against the Myriad Emperor World.’ In a short moment, Tong Ruoning thought of many things. She knew her world had been cut off from the Endless Void for some time, but it was still famous. After the Deception Trial, the Myriad Emperor World caught other world communities’ eyes.
‘The Trial, the closing of the lower dimension, and this event: all these events are related somehow. And I have a feeling Wang Wei is connected to these events.’ She squinted her eyes.
‘A complete Son of Era: a person with the destiny to open a new era. No, not just any era, an era that revitalizes the current downward trend of the world. However, some people in other world communities do not want our revival.’
Numerous thoughts flashed in her mind. A few talismans appeared before her, blessing her brain and soul to increase her comprehension and better help her analyze the situation.
‘The core of this issue is the Deception Trial. Wang Wei seemed to be caught in some infighting in the upper dimension. Right after these people left, the lower dimension was sealed. And from the information, I learned from the ancestors, the only thing that can seal the entire lower dimension: True Heavenly Dao. So, why would it seal the lower dimension?”
Tong Ruobing felt she was approaching the truth, so she put her brain on overflow.
‘True Heavenly Dao wanted to protect Wang Wei. It may sound absurd since he is only a talented mortal in the lower dimension. However, if I consider the new era he will open has some sort of benefit to the upper dimension, it will make sense.’
She remembered the conversation Wang Wei had with Xiao Tiandi, the number one genius from the upper dimension.
‘I’m right. He mentioned the so-called seven moons and two suns. If these people forcefully reigned over the upper dimension, to the world’s detriment, True Heavenly Dao would not accept such a thing. But, if Wang Wei’s new era somehow led to changes in the upper dimension, it would explain why it sealed the lower dimension to protect him.’
Tong Ruobing knew she lacked much information but knew she was on the right track. Suddenly, her pupil dilated as she thought of something.
‘I finally understand the conversation Wang Wei had with Yu Zhou: some people from the upper dimension sent people into the Myriad Emperor World to interfere in the Heaven Will Battle and prevent it from rising. And Wang Wei was hunting them down since he is an Era Son.’
Tong Ruobing suddenly smiled. ‘If I play my card correctly, I might have a small chance at proving the Dao.’ Her chances were already small, but they increased a little with this idea.
‘And even if it fails, I can ensure I survive and leave the battle intact. However, I need to be decisive when necessary.’
Her eyes lit up before disappearing to her hiding spot. Tong Ruobing did not continue healing but contacted someone.
“My Empress, the light of my heart, how are you doing?” said Mu Lei, who was not ashamed these words came from this mouth.
“Why is recently your mouth getting sweeter?”
p
“No women dislike compliments, but too much makes you seem too eager.”
“That makes sense. So, why did you contact me? I thought you were in your Clean Up?”
“I am, but something happened.” She explained the situation to him.
“What?” yelled Mu Le. “Are you okay? Who dares attack you? Tell me where you are, and I’ll come to kill them.” Nine Stars appeared on his forehead, releasing a terrifying killing intent that made the star he was on tremble. Even though the talisman, Tong Ruobing, could it.
“Calm down,” she hurriedly said, knowing he would really come here to kill these people. “I did not call you to ask you to avenge me.”
‘Anyway, you can’t defeat her.’ Tong Ruobing did not say these words even though she knew they were true. After the trial, Mu Lei found a way to control laws with certain Qi while continuing his pure body refining. Currently, he has a high chance of reaching the 7-Leaf limit. However, she felt he would not be the match for that devil.
“I want to ask if you heard any information about other planes who wanted to attack the Myriad Emperor World.”
“No, but I can guess who is responsible: well, the people most likely to be behind this move.”
“Oh, who?”
“The Spirit Genesis Sect from the Battle Spirit World.”
Tong Ruobing waited to hear him explain, but he remained quiet, staring at her. “You know I don’t know who they are.”
“I know, but I just wanted you to talk and hear your voice.”
“Be serious,” she replied with the slightest blush on her face; but it was here only a moment before disappearing.
“They are the most powerful faction in the Endless Void–allegedly. They are also one of the most mysterious forces.
“What makes you say that?”
“The mode of operation is similar to how they operate: always on the shadow. There have been many strange events targeting the rise of certain factions, and many people believed they were responsible. However, the method used against your sect seemed rushed and shoddy.”
“Is that all the evidence you have?” Tong Ruobing felt this was insufficient to prove or even suspect that sect.
“You said someone or something broke a Heavenly Dao on par with Eternal Emperor, right?”
“Yes.”
“Only an Immortal Sovereign has such power. However, most of them have to worry about sealing themselves and hiding from True Heavenly Dao and would only show up after the time of the Heaven Will Battle.
“Interfering in another world community’s battle is a taboo for these Immortal Sovereigns; they would only do this even if they knew they would ascend and leave the lower dimension.
“However, rumors are that the Spirit Genesis Sect has a way of hiding from True Heavenly Dao. Or, at the very least, they have a way of lowering Heavenly Dao tolerance toward the member of their sect.
“So, they are probably the ones who recently attacked the Myriad Emperor World.”
“Wait, we were attacked?”
“Don’t you know? Or right, you’re not back home yet. But yes, some people attack your plane. Luckily, Wang Wei had the insight to activate the Protection Array, and the Dao Opening Sect suddenly had an Eternal Emperor-level Insurgent?”
“They do?”
“You didn’t know?”
“No,” replied Tong Ruobing with a frown. “This will change the power balance of the entire world.
“Probably,” Mu Lei replied. “Anyway, have you thought about what I said? Based on the current situation, Wang Wei is the one who will prove the Dao. It would be best to compete in another world.”
“My decision is the same: I won’t move.”
Tong Ruobing had many reasons not to leave. Firstly, like most cultivators, she had affection for the Myriad Emperor World and will not easily leave. Cultivators are selfish people who value benefits above anything else. However, when it comes to certain things like nationalism or pride in their mother world, most people are stubborn.
Of course, there are other reasons most cultivators do not go to weaker worlds to prove the Dao. First, treasure to travel to other world communities are rare and precious.
Secondly, there is the Identity Token. Only Emperor Lineages can condense these things, and no lineage will trust foreign cultivators. And for a cultivator like Tong Ruobing with a background, her faction won’t easily allow her to go to another world or help her acquire a token through an exchange.
As for Tobg Ruobing, she had another reason she refused to move: she wanted to challenge herself. Cultivators can learn as much–if not more–from defeat than from success.
Fighting monsters like Wang Wei and Di Tian can be a sublimating process for her cultivation journey. She might die, but the experience will be valuable if she survives. Anyway, her path will not be cut off as long she survives.
“Are you sure? If something happens to you, I don’t think I will be able to avenge you.” He knew how powerful Wang Wei was and did not think he could win even after proving the Dao.
“I don’t need you to avenge me.”
“Fine.” Mu Lei knew his future Dao Companion was headstrong, which was one reason he loved her. Anyway, once he becomes an Emperor, he can easily revive her by taking her soul from Samsara. And since her Existence would not be affected, he did not have to worry about her imprint.
