Chapter 469: News

w.a.n.g Wei looked at the cube in his hand before squinting his eyes.

'This is an Ultimate-level Innate Treasure.'

There are 6 levels of Innate Treasures: low, middle, high, superior, extreme, and ultimate. The low level corresponds to Immortal Venerable-level power, the middle to Dao Ancestor, high to extreme corresponds to Third Cla.s.s Emperor to First Cla.s.s Emperor, while Ultimate is on the level of Eternal Emperor.

His original plan was to use Fang Lijuan's Invisible Talisman and mix it with the high-level Innate Treasure he took from the Shadow Slayer Temple to raise it to a higher level to hide from Heavenly Dao.

However, this mysterious stranger just handed one of the highest levels of Innate Treasure to him.

After checking the cube for a moment, w.a.n.g We inserted his spiritual power inside to refine it. And as expected, this thing already had a master. The mastermind only 'lends" it to him, so he cannot completely refine it.

He did not mind nor try to take control of the treasure forcibly. In his current state, all his actions have to be cautious. After temporarily refining the cube, he knew it was called the [Unseen Cube], whose primary purpose was to hide.

Hide from Heavenly Dao, hide from Fate, from unknown or unmentionable beings; it could hide from anything between Heaven and Earth. After injecting his Origin Essence inside, an invisible barrier surrounded w.a.n.g Wei, making him appear as if he was non-existent in the physical and spiritual plane.

'Is this how that young man appears so weird?' he thought for a moment before focusing on the cube. As soon as that protective s.h.i.+eld surrounded him, he felt relieved.

He did not know whether this feeling was genuine or a psychological thing.

Finally, he again looked at w.a.n.g Ju: "Is there anything else?" n

She hesitated for a moment: "There is something regarding Li Jun. However, I think it would be best if he is the one who told you."

"Is it urgent?"

"No, not really."

"In that case, tell him I'll come to see him in a few days since I have something to do first."

w.a.n.g Ju nodded before excusing herself. She had much new information that she could hand over. However, she could tell that her young master had different priorities at the moment, so she did not say anything else.

w.a.n.g Wei returned to his retreat to make another deduction. He wanted to know whether the cube could hide forever from Heavenly Dao to allow him to pa.s.s the trial or, at the very least, extend the time he had.

And the answer was negative.

So, he sighed to himself as he began reviewing all the information he had about the Trial and organizing them. He wanted to see if he missed some small but essential details.

After reviewing Jian Wushuang and Lin Fan's Trial, he concluded that one of the main reasons that these two failed their trial so quickly is because they placed their names in the Heavenly Dao Protection Book.

With this artifact, Heavenly Dao could gather more information about their personality, ways of thinking, habits, and thought patterns. Now, even if changed or improved a lot after the protective time ended, Heavenly Dao could deduce all possible directions they could improve or evolve before planning their dooms. pda nvel

As for him, although he managed to escape this fate, he did not think his situation was that much better. He genuinely believes that Di Tian sold information he gathered during their battle to Heavenly Dao to ensure he did not survive this trialalthough it was not as detailed as acquiring it from the book.

'That book and its creator are suspicious; this is the perfect artifact to keep track of Outlaws and increase their difficulty. Could it be that Emperor Kong made some dirty deal with Heavenly Dao when he created the book? Is this why he became an Eternal Emperor?'

w.a.n.g Wei could not help but think like this. Although the book's purpose was to give Heaven Chosnes a short period of immortality so that they can do anything possible to become powerful without worrying about the consequences.

However, nothing in this complicated cultivating world was as it was on the surface. Of course, w.a.n.g Wei knew that his conjecture had no basis, and his recent paranoia did not help either.

Furthermore, some people should have discovered something if the book had problems. For example, the Heaven Devouring Emperor should have detected something and made the Academy pay for their act of treachery.

'It is also possible that Emperor Kong had better means of hiding his wrongdoings, so the Heaven Devour Emperor did not notice anything.'

Although Emperor Kong has a positive image in the entire world, he is even revered as a [Sage], which apparently may not be just a t.i.tle. However, w.a.n.g Wei does not believe any Great Emperors are "good people."

He does not believe any cultivator is a good or morally upright individual. Even the Emperor of his sectswho also had a positive imagew.a.n.g Wei did not think that any of them did not do some shady things in their cultivation journey.

The Emperor Throne is one made of the bones of others. No one who sat on it does not have his hand stained with countless life; it is a throne synonymous with conquest and victors at the cost of others.

w.a.n.g Wei thought about all of these for a moment before returning to the task. Whether Emperor Kong did questionable things did not matter to him at the moment. ,c,om

So, he focused on the trial.

Although his intuition told him that he would not find an Absolute Chaos Physique in time, he did not want to give up so soon. So, he tried to find a way to increase his chance and also make very powerful divination.

As such, he needed merit. And the ones gathered over the years for the new Pseudo Innate Pill were not enough. Luckily, he knew of a secret realm that had some merits.

The old beggar had much valuable information in his mind. However, before leaving, he went to see Li Jun.

After flying to the latter's cultivation mountain, he found him lying on the roof of his mansion, looking at the sky in a daze.

"The servants told me that you've been like this for some time now," gestured w.a.n.g Wei with his hands. However, Li Jun did not notice him, so he wrote it in the air.

Even then, Li Jun remained unresponsive. So, w.a.n.g Wei snapped his finger to generate a slightly penetrative sound to get his attention.

"Big brother, you're here," said Li Jun with a smile before inviting him to lay next to him.

w.a.n.g Wei caught the gourd that Li Jun threw at him before taking a big gulp. Finally, he observed the latter closely. Nothing changed with his physical body besides a small red mark on his forehead that resembled a spear and his red hair and pupil.

He completely restrained his aura and breath as an average individual.

"You've become more handsome. Now, I wonder how many ladies will be able to resist your charm."

"That's true. Now, I can even say that I am as handsome if not more than you," replied Li Jun.

"Alright, now, you're getting way over your head. Youngster, c.o.c.kiness is not a good look on you."

"You know, I am still not over losing the t.i.tle of big brother because of a brawl we had as childrenespecially since I'm older."

"If you want to fight again, I'll be more than happy to accompany you."

Li Jun's mouth twitched before saying: "There is no need to use such a barbaric way. You should have just respected my seniority."

"All I hear are excuses."

Li Jun laughed aloud while w.a.n.g Wei sighed in relief; for the first time in a while, he felt wholly relaxed and anxiety-free.

"So, what news do you have to tell me?"

"I'm going to be a father," replied Li Jun as he looked into the sky and swallowed a big mouthful from his gourd.

"Yan Liling is pregnant?"

"No, it's Su Ai."

"Well, no matter who it is, congratulations are in order, right?"

"Indeed."

"But do I feel like you're not that excited?"

"I am. I truly am. However, just like you, I never planned to have kids so early on. And honestly, I don't know how to feel or react."

w.a.n.g Wei pondered for a moment: "Think about the first time you learned this news. What was your first thought, your first instinct?"

"To protect that child at all cost and ensure that nothing happens to them and my family," replied Li Jun without hesitation.

"Then, that's all you have to do. Follow that first instinct throughout your life, and you will be a great father."

"Yes, protect my family and loved ones, muttered Li Jun. And as soon as he said these words, myriad runes suddenly manifested from the mansion to surround w.a.n.g Wei.

He did not have any time to react or dodge, nor did his intuition warn him before the formation imprisoned him.
