Chapter 1296 Perfect Match
"I appreciate your frankness," Xun Junyao answered. Cultivators on her level have a different perspective about [Fated Love]. Some embrace it, some are indifferent, and others find it disgusting. Xun Junyao was in the indifferent category; she only had expectations for Wang Wei because she thought he might be able to help with her situation.
Wang Wei secretly sighed in relief. What he feared the most was she made a big deal out of this. He checked the fate connection between them, and as expected, he discovered it was not as unbreakable as before.
'But it seems this is not enough to cut it off completely,' Wang Wei analyzed. He may need to get involved more with Xun Junyao before he can sever their connection.
"Now that you are here, I'll take the opportunity to express my gratitude," Xun Junyao changed the topic. "I would have been in serious trouble had you not stopped Five Feathers."
"Really? I thought you would find my actions meddlesome."
"On the contrary," Xun Junyao stated. "You may have saved my life."
"That's an exaggeration," Wang Wei replied. "Something tells me you were prepared in case something like this happened."
"I was indeed prepared," Xun Junyao nodded. She used Wu Hong's aura to make anyone who came weary. Such a play should have bought her some time to kill Blood Dragon. However, if that did not work, Xun Junyao was prepared to use her palace — a Supreme Chaos Treasure — to resist and even run away into the Source Qi Space.
"However, after seeing your battle, I realized how much I underestimated the power of a Paragon," Xun Junyao added. She briefly observed their battle after killing Blood Dragon, and she was appalled by their display of strength. Additionally, she checked the aftermath after leaving the Dragon Palace. As such, Xun Junyao understood how difficult it would have been to fight off Five Feathers — especially if she were distracted trying to finish Blood Dragon as soon as possible. She could not tell the final outcome without Wang Wei's presence, but she knew the chances of things going sideways for her and the people of the palace were pretty high.
"I accept your gratitude," Wang Wei nodded. "While on this topic, can I ask whether you've discovered Blood Dragon's Dao Imprint?"
"I have," Xun Junyao nodded. "Why are you asking?"
"If you don't mind, can we work together to deal with it as soon as possible," Wang Wei suggested. He was worried that the existence of the imprint would become a variable, so the best solution would be for them to work together and get rid of it as soon as possible.
Xun Junyao mulled over this idea for a few seconds before agreeing. She also felt it would be better to deal with this imprint immediately. The last thing anyone in the world wanted would be for that stupid dragon to revive himself. She waved her hand to summon the Grand Dao Source, directing Wang Wei to a seal area with a unique rune.
"How do you want to do this?" Xun Junyao asked.
"I have no experience dealing with a Paragon's Imprint, so let's just attack with all our strength and respond as things change," Wang Wei suggested. Xun Junyao found nothing wrong with this suggestion, so she immediately took action. Small bursts of red lightning flashed around their eyes as they activated their True Will and bombarded the rune.
They immediately encountered severe resistance. The imprint seemed alive, or at the very least, had a certain level of consciousness, so it fought back to protect itself. Paragon Dao Imprint is different from Empyreans because it has a consciousness. Unlike Empyreans, who have to order their imprints to hide before their death, Paragon Imprints will act on instinct and do it without instruction. However, such ability is the most basic of abilities.
The Dao Imprint is how regular Paragons ensure their survival, so it became imperative that they developed ways to protect it. As such, there are plenty of Dao Imprint Techniques, including creating false Dao Imprints to lure the enemy away, the imprint developing hiding and battle instincts, and even the ability of an imprint to attach itself to other lesser ones to camouflage and hide itself.
Xun Junyao's way of getting the Blood Dragon's Dao Imprints saved them a lot of trouble. Otherwise, it would have been a struggle for them to search for that imprint, but even with such an advantage, it was challenging for those two to eradicate it. Wang Wei and Xun Junyao's attacks were not as effective as they wanted it to be, so they decided to work together.
They melded their True Will into one to boost its potency. The process was so smooth and swimmingly that it felt unnatural; it was like they were the perfect match, two sides of a broken object that easily fit together. Their approach was the correct choice. Their combined power had a more significant effect but showed no signs of excitement.
"Too slow," Wang Wei said.
"This should be expected," Xun Junyao said calmly. "We should succeed in about 1200 Yuan Epoch, and that's excellent timing." She was prepared to spend at least ten times longer to deal with this imprint.
Wang Wei shook his head. "1200 Yuan Epoch is enough time for unknown variables to pop up from this imprint."
"I understand that, but there is nothing we can do about this — unless we can find rare things like Source Erosion Water or Omega Karma Flame," Xun Junyao said before looking at him. "Did you find any of these things in the Blood Dragon's treasury?"
"No," Wang Wei replied. "And even if he had such things, with how he fears for his life, I doubt he would keep them." A drop of Source Erosion Water can instantly erase the Dao Imprint of a low-level Paragon. Meanwhile, Omega Karma Flame can also directly burn the Dao Imprint, and for peak Paragons and Boundless, it can drastically increase the speed of erasing it.
"That's true," Xun Junyao nodded. "Anyway, let's focus, and maybe we can chip off a few yuan epochs in our time."
Wang Wei disagreed with her, but he did not say anything. Instead, he summoned the River of Fate to use the technique he copied from Mongke: Fate Will. Adding another will dramatically increase their speed, and Xun Junyao was surprised. Wang Wei frowned as he was still unsatisfied with this speed.
Xun Junyao felt the change to their True Will, and a brilliant light flashed deep in her eyes before she closed them. A few seconds later, countless chains of laws appeared around her, emanating the aura of different Grand Dao Sources. Then, numerous Dao Wills emanated from these chains; they condensed into one before fusing with the True Will.
'So, she can not only copy people's Dao but even their Dao Will? My technique must have inspired her. She's a true talent,' Wang Wei thought with a slight surprise. He could tell Xun Junyao's secondary Dao Will was somewhat weak and illusory, indicating her technique was imperfect. However, it's understandable, given that it was created on the spot.
After calming down, Wang Wei focused on the task at hand. 'It's down to about 550 Yuan Epoch, but I'm still unsatisfied.' He wanted to reduce the scale to less than a yuan epoch. He pondered briefly before sending his mind to the Dragon Palace.
"Mongke, Dulgun, Jia Ping, and Flame, lend me your Wills. Everyone else who has a Dao Will Artifact can also use it." His team was confused, but they did not ask many questions: they used their Dao Will, True Will, and Willpower Manifestation and sent it through the karmic line that Wang Wei established with them. The addition of these people significantly boosted the eradication process.
Wang Wei's eye's lit up after seeing the speed for them to succeed. It was down to 120 Yuan Epoch, so he pondered who else he could ask. However, Xun Junyao immediately relieved his worry. She knew way more Eternals and Everlasting than him, so when she copied his method, hundreds of Wills came from the void to provide aid. They soon reached their limit, and any more people would collapse their True Will instead of augmenting it.
Time passed, and the two spent 3 million years before the imprint dissipated. They could have finished sooner by at least 500,000 years, but Wang Wei was distracted as he kept observing the outside for any signs of sudden and drastic change.
There were no visions between Heaven and Earth when the imprint disappeared. However, there were some slight changes to the world, and people of a certain cultivation noticed. After a few calculations, some people deduced that Blood Dragon had truly fallen.
Many cultivators sighed after discovering this truth, lamenting the vicissitudes of life. Mortals pursue immortality, while Immortals strive for eternity. However, even noble beings like Boundless Paragons have not achieved true eternity. So, what chances do they have?
