Chapter 353 - Aftermath
Chapter 353 – Aftermath
A few days passed since the final battle ended and Li Jun began to take over all the 36 realms. He organized people to build temples and spread the word that the Age of the Gods has ended.
From now on, there is only One True God, the All-Powerful God of Fate.
While dealing with the aftermath of this war, there were still some slight problems. One day, while overviewing documents, Tie Gang came to see Li Jun with some bad news.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
"What should we do with the Mortal Freedom Alliance and the New Gods? Their devil nature is rapidly overwhelming their minds and turning them into mindless swallowing machines."
Li Jun frowned, "Could we purify their mind to return to normal?"
"We tried that. Although it succeeded, the price and times require to heal even a Demi-God is honestly not worth it."
After pondering for a moment, Li Jun understood the crux of the problem. The God System does not cultivate the mind, spirit, or state of mind. As such, they are easily influenced by the devil technique.
According to their original plan, after these people created enough chaos and weakened the power of the Supreme Gods, the group would jump in and help them suppress their devil nature.
Finally, these people will be forced to hand over their faith to Wang Wei if they do not want their minds to be overtaken.
Unfortunately, the Destiny Goddess' Probably Manipulation seemed to have accelerated the process. Additionally, the group did not take into account the fact that these Gods' state of mind was so weak.
'I could use Buddhism Methods to cleanse their minds.'
However, he quickly removed this idea from his head. He knew the horror of the Absolute Emperor's magic from Wang Wei's description. Although there was a chance that the Crystal Wall of this world would be able to block that technique, that is only a possibility.
Unless the God-King of this world was also an Eternal Emperor on the same level as the Absolute Beginning Emperor. Even then, this might not work. After all, there have been many Eternal Emperors from different World Communities, yet, that technique still exists to this day.
Li Jun did not believe for a moment that at least one of them did not try to remove that magic.
So, after pondering for a while, he quickly came up with an idea.
"Before the Destiny Realm is reconstructed, placed all of them in there and have them swallow one another until a few Supreme Gods are born."
"Do you want to deal with these people using the same method as the Death God?" said Tie Gang with shining eyes.
"Yes. That way, they can provide us with the most benefit."
Tie Gang left to do his job. The next day, Li Jun met with Wang Ju this time.
"Did you find anything from the library of the Record God?"
"Besides a few incomplete cultivation techniques of the World Community next to us, there is only one noteworthy thing. Based on our analysis, there is a great possibility that the God-King was a wounded Great Emperor who landed on this world.
"The creation of the Crystal Wall was most likely a way to hide while healing from his injuries."
Li Jun furrowed his brow a little as he pondered the value of this information, then his eyes lit up:
"Did you find his blood? Or at least a place that was drenched on his blood."
A Great Emperor's blood is of great value. If they could find it, then the value of this world would increase dramatically.
"Unfortunately, no. We have searched every corner but did not find anything."
"Keep searching. Use Void Sensing Talisman to see if there are any Secret Realms around. Search the Supreme Gods' Heavenly Abode to see if they have discovered anything, or have any kind of information."
Wang Ju nodded her head before leaving. She had to dispatch the Fate Shadow Guard to one again search every corner of this place; this was exhausting work.
While Li Jun got back to his work, a few hours later, Yan Liling came to see him. He could tell that she was happy as she was not only smiling but also humming a song; her voice was heavenly, at least to him.
"Why are you in such a good mood?" he asked.
"I invented a new pill."
"You have invented many new pill recipes. What's so unique about this one?"
"This is an interesting new pill. I have discovered that the souls of these Gods are combined with the power of Incense. And as you know, incense can help people enter the Primordial Spirit Realm. So, I created a pill using their souls as the main material that increased the success rate of entering the Primordial Spirit Realm.
"I called it Incense Refining Pill."
"What's the percentage?"
"40%."
Li Jun's eyes lit up after hearing this. From his knowledge, the best pill that helps people enter the Primordial Spirit Realm is the Soul Transformation Pill, and the success rate is 25%.
"We could cultivate a few Supreme Gods and use their soul to refine your pill. Maybe, it will be helpful to big brother Wang Wei in his breakthrough attempt."
"That was exactly my plan," replied Yan Liling. "More ever, I can try to refine a Saint-Grade one. With big brother's soul, he should be able to withstand it."
"Alright, I will send new orders to Tie Gang."
Their conversation ended quickly as the two were extremely busy. Yan Liling went back to her pill refining, trying to see if she could increase the success rate of her new pill.
Li Jun had many things to deal with, especially when it came to reforming the views and understanding of mortals. The majority of them are still too reliant on the Gods to do everything, while at the same time, many refused to acknowledge the fact that the Gods they believed in were dead.
Not to mention he had to deal with all the Fanatic Believers committing mass suicide and the depression that these mortals felt after losing their spiritual substance.
It was only three days later that the situation stabilized enough for him that he could take a break. Not wanting to waste time, Li Jun began to study and refine the Eye of Destruction that he acquired after the final battle.
This was a Saint Grade Artifact that contained the Law of Destruction. Li Jun planned to first refine this weapon as his own, and when he enters the Void Shattering Realm, try to comprehend a little bit of Destruction Law to fuse with his Slaughter Dao.
…
Myriad Emperor World, Northern Black Tortoise Continent, Secret Realm:
Wang Wei's clone who was floating in the air in front of countless arrays suddenly opened his eyes. A new memory appeared inside his mind out of a sudden.
With squinted his eyes, he muttered: "It took more than 200 years for the memory of what happened in the world to reach me. Why is that? Could it be because of the distance, or because of the Crystal Wall?"
He sighed before placing this question in the back of his head. In the past 200 years, he has studied all the arrays in this mountain, so, his accomplishment as an Array Master increased at an alarming rate.
Despite this, he was still not even close to halfway through the mountain.
He raised his head to look far ahead of him and saw Liu Meixiu's group–who was the farthest. Even them had barely reached halfway through the mountain.
'At this rate, they might take even a thousand years to reach the core. What exactly is this secret realm?'
Wang Wei could not come up with any guesses so far as not only does he not have enough information, there are too many possibilities.
After looking at Liu Meixiu's group, he looked at the second group behind them. This group was composed of Demon Races. They were very eye-catching, not because of their position, but because of their madness.
These people started at a similar time as everyone else, but they quickly surpassed everyone. The reason was that these demon races did not care about their injury; they attacked and destroyed the formation without a care for their lives.
Because of this, all of them were severely injured, yet, they did not seem to care. Wang Wei could even see that many of them have injured their foundation in the process.
'The Demon Race must know something about this secret realm. And something inside must be very attractive to them.'
Wang Wei then finally looked at Jian Wushuang and the people from the Sword Casting Villa. He could see that the latter had entered the Earth Stage of the Divine Body Realm and began to open his orifices.
Wang Wei then got back to his own business. He first took out a talisman to review some information he received in the past 200 years because of his deep meditation.
However, something suddenly dawned on him.
'I'm actually over 1000 years old now.'
With his current lifespan, this is a very small number. After all, his cultivation realm grants him 90,000 years of life. And his fleshly body granted him over 500,000 years–which was the average life span of Saint.
However, when compared to his past life, this was a very long time–especially in comparison to the average human life span of fewer than 100 years old.
Many countries, dynasties, or even civilizations did not last 1000 years, yet, he lived that long. And will continue to live much longer. At some point in time, he will probably be older than the planet Earth itself, and eventually, the entire universe.
After sighing for a moment, the clone review the information he deemed important before sending it to the real body. For precaution reasons, the real body handed a lot of control to the clone as he did not want to garner the slightest of suspicions with so many True Monarchs present.
Although Wang Wei had the strength of that realm, he did not have many of their means.. As for the clone, he did not worry about it going rogue since the method he used was a foolproof one tested for countless generations by the sect.
