949 Ruthlessness

He s.h.i.+yi sat on a throne, the room turning completely red due to his anger and killing intent. The situation seemed aggravated because he had no s.h.i.+rt, a gus.h.i.+ng wound on his torso, and was missing one eye. The elders, disciples, and even his own father trembled because of his terrifying aura.

Ancestor He's soul became slighter and weaker as he resisted the pressure from the latter's aura in such a terrible state. In this atmosphere, no one dared say anything, especially since they knew their mistake.

The sect master found a way to stabilize the Qi Luck of the sect, but after returning, he learned that they had lost two of their greatest foundations.

He s.h.i.+yi was truly outraged. He thought the situation did not get any worse than losing their [strongest sect] t.i.tle, but he was wrong. They lost an Immortal Sovereign, the other was crippled, and finally, they lost their most precious Medicine Garden.

That garden has been with the sect for billions of years, and it was extremely arduous to cultivate. It's not a simple thing to mobilize the power from the Four Symbol Mirror, and once they succeed, it's usually a very tiny portion.

However, the medicine grown in that garden contained the purest and most potent power from the mirror. The sect only has two Immortal Sovereigns, but that's only because of the Balance Mechanism of True Heavenly Dao. As long as they want, they can use the resources in that garden to train countless Immortal Sovereigns.

Now, it is all gone. Years of effort, planning, and biding their time wasted in one instant.

He s.h.i.+yi looked at all these people, and all he could think about was how incompetent they were. If they were not members of his sect and his family, he would have slaughtered them all.

He took a deep breath to calm down. Now was not the time for agitated emotions or even holding people accountable; he needed to deal with the situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, the sect will suffer even more.

He s.h.i.+yi calmed down and entered a state of deep focus, a.n.a.lyzing the situation and planning his next step.

'That b.a.s.t.a.r.d, w.a.n.g Wei, is ruthless. He did all these to weaken the sect and have justification to take our t.i.tle.'

He s.h.i.+yi knew the t.i.tle could not be taken simply because someone desired it–they must meet certain conditions.

'Given how easily he took it, it meant not only was our sect drastically weakened, but the Dao Opening Sect must have improved exponentially. However, how could they become so powerful?'

According to their sect's understanding of the Dao Opening Sect, they were a top faction in the lower dimension. However, it did not change the fact they have been weakened over the years because of the Nine Emperor Curse and due to their isolation from other World Communities.

At best, they would be in the top 100 factions of the lower dimension, so how could they get their hands on the t.i.tle of the strongest sect?

'Can one Eternal Emperor make such a difference? Even if his strength is overwhelming, it takes time to set up the foundation of a sect.'

One powerful Emperor is not enough to make the Dao Opening Sect's ranking jump so high. After all, w.a.n.g Wei had just proved the Dao not long ago, and he will eventually leave.

'So, what has he done to increase their sect's foundation to such a level in such a short period?'

He s.h.i.+yi knew the source of this problem was this answer. He needed to find this information; however, after the failure of that a.s.sa.s.sin, he knew he had to be extra careful.

He s.h.i.+yi finally focused on the crowd, looking at them with his only eye; he removed his aura, allowing them to breath "There are a few things we need to do.

Firstly, send someone to replenish the mortal population. We can also win over the top factions in the Greater Thousand World and move them here, they will be our new allies from now on.

"Secondly, the sect cannot be without any Immortal Sovereign, so we need one as soon as possible."

The room became quiet, with everyone looking at each other, but no one spoke.

"If you have something to say, do it, and don't waste my time."

People hesitated for a while. Patriarch Jia looked at Patriarch He, hoping he would be the one who spoke; after all, it was his son.

However, the latter pretended he did not see anything. In the end, Patriarch Jia secretly gritted his teeth and said:

"Sect master, the second objective is obvious to all, but how to accomplish it?

We…lost our Supreme Garden, so it's not easy to cultivate another Immortal Sovereign."

"I'm aware of this," replied He s.h.i.+yi calmly.

"In this situation, we need to use drastic measures. Send a Weapon Slave to capture a few Immortal Sovereigns, and we will control their souls."

Everyone frowned as they pondered the feasibility of this method. Immortal Sovereigns are Tier 11, so it's impossible to control their soul or even their bodies.

However, if they used the Four Symbol Mirror, which is of the same level and even higher essence, it's possible to enslave their soul.

"That might work," said the Disciplinary Head. "However, the Weapon Slaves need to act fast." Their sect had just activated the mirror to the highest level in a long time, so True Heavenly Dao should be keeping close eyes on them, so deploying the Weapon Slaves is risky.

"We only need to fight the right target and their location and act swiftly," said He s.h.i.+yi; their sect's intelligence department has spread far and wide in the lower dimension, so it should be easy to find a few loose Immortal Sovereigns. Although rare, they do exist, and in the worst-case scenario, kidnap the ones from certain factions.

"How about using the people from other regions?" suggested an elder.

"Yes, these people purposely ignored us during this catastrophe. We should use this excuse to weaken them."

"I agree. Even if we don't use their Immortal Sovereigns, we must attack some of them and plunder their resources to make up for our loss."

Most people agreed with this idea; however, He s.h.i.+yi shook his head. They did not have a legitimate reason to attack these sects since they also were attacked.

Although he sensed there were some hidden secrets from this, he did not have any evidence.

Normally, their sect does not need a reason to attack others or even blackmail some resources from them. However, the situation was precarious, so it was not wise to act in an overbearing manner.

Otherwise, these factions might band together and attack the Spirit Genesis Sect.

Of course, this was not the main reason he disagreed with this method. The main reason is he sensed 15 Immortal Sovereigns standing together in the distance; he knew this was a warning from the other factions, telling him not to mess around during this time.

Since the sect master made a decision, they could only accept it.

"Take care of the dead disciples; ensure they are properly buried and compensate their family. Began reconstruction of the sect. I don't think you need my help to do these things," said He s.h.i.+yi.

"No problem."

"In that case, you're dismissed."

"Sect master, wait," said Patriarch Jia. "What about the Dao Opening Sect? Are we just going to swallow this breath?"

"Of course not," replied He s.h.i.+yi with a deep killing intent. "However, now is not the time to fight with them."

He understood what kind of person w.a.n.g Wei was; his personality dictated he refused to suffer a loss. The first time they attacked him and the Myriad Emperor World was during their Clean-up. However, w.a.n.g Wei killed countless Heaven Chosens, creating much hatred for the Spirit Genesis Sect.

Although few people knew they were behind the entire event, some did, and they did appreciate losing their talented disciples. As a result, they lost many business partners in the Commercial Hub.

The second attack was the attack on their people on the Commercial Hub. The latter also violently retaliated. Finally, he recently sent a Pseudo Eternal Emperor a.s.sa.s.sin to test things out, but w.a.n.g Wei returned the favor by sending two Eternal Emperors.

After thinking of this, He s.h.i.+yi felt his anger returning, so he quickly exhaled.

"Everyone beside the Ancestor can leave," he declared, and soon, only two people remained in the room.

"Sect Master, I'm truly sorry about my incompetence."

"I don't blame; who would have thought their world had more than one Eternal?

How do you think they did it?"

"There are two ways they could succeed,"

said Ancestor He."The first one is to refine the Nine Devil G.o.d World, allowing their world to condense more than one Heaven Will.

"The second is merit."

"Merit?"

"Yes. Buddhism's annihilation was a mistake, so True Heavenly Dao owed them great karma. So, if someone could gather the destiny of Buddhism, break the Absolute Beginning Magic, and revive Buddhism, it's not impossible to use merit to condense another Heaven Will."

"I see," nodded He s.h.i.+yi. Unfortunately, either of these methods were not easily replicated. He did not think it would be simple to refine a Heaven Will with all these factions trying to protect the world.

As for merit? That's even harder to ama.s.s–even if he tried to plunder from many factions across different World Communities.

"Alright, you can leave. You don't have to worry about your injury. I will find a way to–"

His words did not finish as countless runes appeared in the room, making Ancestor He's face change.
