Chapter 125 - Unexpected Guess
Chapter 125 – Unexpected Guess
After teaching the Iron Fist King a lesson to make him realize his place as a subordinate, Wang Wei nodded, then took out a talisman from his space ring, which was then handed over to Tie Gang.
After getting the talisman, the Iron Fist King got up from the floor and wiped out the blood dripping down the corner of his mouth and inserted his origin qi into the talisman.
Suddenly, a lot of information was inserted into his mind, as a result, the face of the Iron Fist King became increasingly ugly as he kept reading on.
The information he received was actually just basic knowledge of the Myriad Emperor World.
For example, the Body Refining Realm had 12 Layers instead of the 9 he previously believed. The highest amount of Divine Veins was actually 365.
As for the 270 he had, it was the bare minimum required to break into the next realm. However, people who did that had the worst foundation possible among cultivators.
Although the talisman explained that having a bad foundation does not always equate to strength as some people have terrible foundations but their strength are unimaginable.
Nevertheless, without a strong foundation, the future of these people will always be limited. It is impossible for a Normal Foundation (Body Refining 9th Layer) to break through the Saint Realm.
At the same time, it is almost impossible for a Saint Foundation (10th Layer) to reach the Supreme Realm.
Although the Iron Fist King tried to find solace in the fact that this information mentioned the fact that it was almost impossible to achieve–meaning that there were exceptions to this rule.
He knew that this was a long shot. As such, despite showing a calm look on the surface, his rapid breathing and accelerated heartbeat showed otherwise.
Wang Wei noticed the Iron Fist King's reaction and said, "You do not need to worry about these things. When we return home, as my subordinate, you are guaranteed the method to achieve a Supreme Foundation."
"As for the more powerful Dao Foundation, you have to use the sect's points to acquire one. This will depend on your capability."
After hearing this, the Iron Fist King took a deep breath and bowed to Wang Wei. This time he did not bow slightly, but did a 90 degree bow and said:
"Thank you for the opportunity."
Despite losing to Li Jun and acknowledging his surrender, the Iron Fist King was a proud man who believed that he was not in any way inferior to these Extraterrestrial Demons.
He believed that the main difference between him and these foreign guests was the fact that he did not have the same amount of resources and opportunity granted to them by birth.
However, after reading all the information on that talisman, he realized that things were not as simple as he believed them to be.
The difference between the people of this world was not just resources, talents, or opportunity, It was a vast difference in civilization.
The world that these foreigners came from have way more knowledge and understanding of not only the cultivation path, but of the ways of Heaven and Earth.
Adding to their long and preserved history, these people have countless inheritances left from their predecessors. Meanwhile, this Warring Kingdom World has a recorded history of about 2-5 million years.
If it was before, the Iron Fist King would have thought that this was a long period of time. However, according to the information he just read, cultivators in the Supreme Realm can actually live that long.
In fact, there is a high chance that the person who passed down the cultivation method of this world is still alive somewhere out there.
After dealing with the Iron Fist King's affair, Wang Wei began to discuss the affairs of Great Xia.
He looked at Li Jun and asked him to report the situation of the war.
"According to recent reports, Generals 2, 4 and 5 have breached the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom capital, thus effectively conquering the whole kingdom."
"The people of the Black Moon Sect's territory have also surrendered without any problem. To be precise, they have welcomed us with open arms."
"In the past few days, we have conquered the Iron Fist Kingdom, however, there have been revolts all over the territory. But, now that the Iron Fist King is awake, we should be able to quell the anger of the people and settle the territory once for while."
After saying this, Li Jun looked at the Iron Fist King, who just nodded in agreement.
Wang Wei was satisfied–as always–with Li Jun's work and nodded in approval.
"Well, now that our territory is so vast, the current division may not be enough…"
Wang Wei suddenly stopped his words and looked in the corner and roared out loud, "Who dares to intrude in this court's meeting?"
Everyone was surprised by the sudden roar and looked in the same direction as his majesty, but there was nothing there. As such, many people became puzzled, while some people believed that his majesty had made a mistake.
Of course with the exception of Li Jun, Yan Liling, and Wang Ju. They knew that it was impossible for Wang Wei to make a mistake. However, even they could not detect anything after looking.
After seeing no one answered his call, Wang Wei instantly mobilized his powerful fleshly body and threw a punch.
His skin and muscle vibrated rapidly and the vibration traveled into the air directed at the corner.
Boom!
The entire palace trembled and an explosion took place. Cracks started to appear everywhere in the palace, forcing many palace maids and eunuchs to cry in fear.
Afterwards, someone flew from the palace. The person or shadow hit many walls and pillars on his way until he reached the palace's courtyard and landed on his knees.
The shadow threw out a big mouthful of blood and organs. His clothes were broken and numerous dust stains could be seen on it.
The only place intact was the mask that this shadow was wearing.
Soon after the shadow landed, Wang Wei and a group of officials appeared and surrounded the shadow.
"Who are you!" asked Wang Wei.
"Just an ordinary assassin," replied the shadow with a weird voice that prevents anyone from distinguishing whether it is male or female.
"If an ordinary assassin can easily infiltrate the royal palace and reach more than 20 meters close to me before I even noticed, then I really wonder what extraordinary assassins are capable of," replied Wang Wei with a sneer on his face.
The shadow spit out a mouthful of blood and asked, "I'm curious on how you were able to notice me. I mean even the Divine Body Realm lady over there did not find me."
"It was because I felt the fluctuation of your soul," replied Wang Wei calmly. "Now that I answered you question, it's your turn to respond to mine."
"Who are you? Who sent you?"
However, the shadow just got up from his one knee and did not answer the question.
Wang Wei did not let go and continued:
"In fact, I can guess by your strength and method that you are from the Death Order Palace. What I'm wondering is who hired you?"
The shadow finally spoke and said, "Since you know that I am from the Death Order Palace, you should be aware that we never reveal the identity of our clients."
Wang Wei sneered after hearing this.
"I do not need you to say anything to know who it is. You people from the Death Order Palace are also known for doing things only for money. And of all the people in this trial that I know would do such a shameless thing as hiring outside help are only the clowns of the Great Wu Dynasty."
"So, I guess that it was probably Crown Prince Sun Wen that sent you."
However, this time, the shadow did not say anything. However, Wang Wei still continued:
"Well, based on how your soul fluctuated just now, it seemed that my deduction was correct."
Suddenly, the shadow laughed out loud. His laughter was creepy as it sounded like countless voices laughing together.
"Worthy of Sacred Son Wang Wei, the Heaven Chosen currently viewed as the most threatening of this generation. Not only strength is unparalleled, but also possesses extraordinary wisdom."
"Many people feared that you would be just like your father, but they were wrong. They should be worried whether you will be more terrifying than him."
"Should I be proud that some random people praise me?" answered Wang Wei with a calm look on his face.
"Heheh, you're right that you should not be proud," answered the shadow. "Compared to the one in the Western White Tiger Continent, you are still a little far behind."
A flash of intense dread appeared in the shadow's eyes after saying this. An emotion that Wang Wei detected through soul fluctuation.
However, immediately afterwards, the shadow disappeared without a trace right in front of everyone.
Wang Wei immediately concentrated to feel any soul fluctuation, but he failed this time and did not find anyone. Instantly, he activated his True Vision Ability and saw the Qi Luck Dragon of everyone around.
Suddenly, he noticed a strange Purple Qi Dragon outside the capital. Without hesitation, he flew straight to the sky and headed for it.
However, midway in route, the Qi Dragon instantly disappeared and by the time Wang Wei arrived outside the city, he could not find anything.
After looking for a few minutes without success, Wang Wei returned back to the palace to supervise the reconstruction.
