Chapter 408: Essence_2
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Although it wasn’t good news, Xu Yang remained optimistic.
Because there was an even worse reference point.
The complete War God’s Atlas was, at the very least, a Mahayana Skill.
If the Righteous Path and Evil Path, Sacred Place, and Demon Sect set aside their hatred and conflicts and gathered their forty-eight War God Charts, there might be hope to achieve a Martial Artist as powerful as one at the level of Integration.
Integration Great Power?
This was a different concept from Returning to Void; unless there was an Immortal Spirit Mech Armor like that of Xuanyuan White Jade Capital, Xu Yang would have difficulty dealing with such high-level existences.
Luckily, they didn’t have it, well… most likely not.
If there were Martial Artists at the level of Integration, they would definitely seize the Temple of War God, as well as the forty-ninth War God Chart of the Broken Void. The world as it is now, divided starkly into the black and white factions, wouldn’t be possible.
With no Integration, then it would be easy to deal with.
“Below the Heavenly Demon God Monarch is the Divine Martial Alliance Leader, Ren Weidao, known as the world’s number one cultivator, practicing the War God’s Atlas’ seventh and eighteenth charts—Preheaven Qi and Yin and Yang Ultimate. It is said his Inner Yuan True Power’s foundation is not weaker than Leng Aotian, but his techniques are slightly inferior; hence he is ranked second.”
“Furthermore, there’s the Overlord Gate’s leader, the world’s number one fist Li Hengjiang, the Freewheeling Peak Master, world’s number one hand Ning Wuwo, as well as the Mercy Sailing Sword female swordsman, Purity Zen Master, Ocean-listening Scholar…”
Su Shaoqing mentioned each name from the Divine Martial List, and Xu Yang committed them to memory without asking too many questions.
Until…
“Pavilion Master Dao Wuya of the Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism, the world’s number one predictor!”
“Hm!?”
Xu Yang frowned and asked in a heavy voice, “Does this person comprehend the Skill of Heavenly Mechanism?”
Su Shaoqing nodded, “Rumor has it that he does. The Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism holds the twenty-seventh chart of the War God’s Atlas, ‘Qiankun Bagua,’ said to predict divine mechanisms, consult Ghost Gods and spirits, and know the past and future. They have always been mysterious in the Martial World; aside from the major powers and Divine Martial Venerables, common people have difficulty coming into contact with them.”
“Qiankun Bagua?”
Xu Yang muttered to himself, deep in thought, but he was not overly worried.
Although the War God’s Atlas was of high tier, his Daoist Divine Skills were not inferior, inheriting the legacy of the Ancient Immortal Gods in the World of Dao and Law. Now, with the protection of the Six Ding and Six Jia, even if the Pavilion Master was a Divine Martial Venerable, he would not be able to directly observe Xu Yang’s condition—a rough estimation of his location was the most he could do.
After some time, once the Divine Soul of his Taoism Origin Body had recovered and transmitted the “Escaping One,” even if Xu Yang stood right in front of him, he would not be able to calculate even a bit of information.
Speaking of which, the flow of time in this world and the World of Dao and Law was one to one, and it was unknown whether it was due to proximity or similar positional rank. In any case, the equivalence of time meant his dream within a dream, a millennia in a day, was in vain.
However, it didn’t matter much as the flow of time between the World of Dao and Law and the real world was still one to a hundred. Calculating it, he still had a few thousand years. As long as he could obtain the Temple of War God and the War God’s Atlas within these few thousand years, there was hope of resolving the Void Spirit Cave Heaven issue.
Divine Martial ranking battles, the storm of a Jiazi cycle!
Having discussed both matters, the general layout of the world became clear.
Su Shaoqing looked at Xu Yang, her gaze filled with trepidation and a touch of unease, “What does the Ancestral Emperor plan to do next?”
Xu Yang smiled and replied with a question, “What do you think?”
“This…”
Faced with such a question, noticing Xu Yang’s expression, Su Shaoqing hesitated but eventually took it as a test and said solemnly, “Ancestral Emperor, although we, your descendants, have been unfilial and could not maintain the Great Zhou legacy, there are still many contingency plans left behind, with remnants and hidden branches, just leaderless and difficult to activate.”
“Apart from our Great Zhou remnants, there’s also the Tian Wu Legacy, the Martial Arts Scripture inheritance, All Age Mentor. Despite the impact of the War God’s Atlas, it still has popular support, and there’s even a secret force like the Heaven Martial Meeting.”
“Now that you have returned, Your Highness, a call to arms would surely gather the forces of the Great Zhou remnants. Like in the past, you could develop covertly, step by step to grow stronger, and then devise a way to obtain the War God’s Atlas…”
Su Shaoqing pondered while observing Xu Yang’s reactions.
These were not her own thoughts but the long-standing schemes of the Tian Wu Remnants, wishing to replicate Xu Yang’s past deeds to revive the Great Zhou foundation.
The idea was good, just… a bit impractical.
But Xu Yang did not directly point this out; he just watched Su Shaoqing with a smile and asked, “Have you ever heard a saying?”
Su Shaoqing was surprised, “What saying?”
“When the time comes, heaven and earth strive together; when fortune fades, even heroes lack freedom!”
Xu Yang shook his head and spoke calmly, “One must rely on oneself to get through life!”
“This…”
Su Shaoqing appeared stunned, then, gradually understanding, a bitter smile emerged, “What the Ancestral Emperor says is true; I was being naïve.”
The conversation had reached a point where she had to admit that the Tian Wu Remnants’ dream was beautiful but destined to remain just a dream.
Indeed, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. The Great Zhou indeed had contingencies and many hidden branches that were deeply concealed. Despite the oppression from various forces and surviving through millennial disasters, there was still significant power scattered across the land.
Besides, the Tian Wu Legacy also garnered popular support, and there were some secret organizations like the Heaven Martial Meeting. If he, the Heaven Martial Emperor, stood up and made the call, the world would surely respond.
But… that’s all the response would be from the remnants.
The Martial Path is transcendent, with mighty powers reaching the heavens.
Those who held the War God’s Atlas and the Divine Martial Venerables, the masters on the Heaven List—would they bow their heads just because of a so-called precedent from ten thousand years ago and cede their interests?
The response of the Tian Wu Remnants would just cause them to be suppressed by all the major forces in the world!
