1092 Battle of Limits
Although Wang Wei had solved one mystery, he now had a hundred more questions. How did Emperor Jia hide his reincarnation from his eyes? Why did he not ascend but reincarnate instead? What is he planning?
Emperor Jia heard Wang Wei's words but did not say anything. He was momentarily confused as he looked at his body and checked his memory.
"This is the fifth reincarnation? Why did I reincarnate into the Spirit Genesis Sect? I took measures to ensure this did not happen. And why is the Dao this time Battle? This is not what I chose."
His eyes turned into runes, and he seemed to be calculating or deducing some information. "No information deduced, but my intuition is telling me you're involved in this anomaly in some way," said Emperor Jia, finally paying attention to Wang Wei.
"I want to say that this is our first meeting, and I have nothing to do with you. However, weirder things have happened to me, so you might be right. Who knows?"
Despite his laissez-faire attitude, Wang Wei was on guard at all times, and that's because Emperor Jia was a blank to him; he could not divine any information or see the latter's future actions. This was the first time he faced such an opponent.
"It seems the battle between us is inevitable," commented Emperor Jia after a brief silence.
"I'm afraid so."
"Very well."
The center of his brow suddenly lit up five different colors, and immediately afterward, his aura drastically increased: 60% ... 65% .... 68% ... 69% ... 69.99999% Grand Dao Source.
'What is this? I sense a very subtle aura of Eternal Emperor from each of the lights?' thought Wang Wei, and his eyes squinted. 'Could it be?' When Emperor Jia's strength reached his level, he was sure of his theory.
'He's trying to enter the Taboo Realm by following a path similar to the Nine Extremity Foundation. He proves the Dao, condenses his strength into a seed, reincarnates, and does it again. Then, once he's become an Eternal Emperor nine times, he can fuse his power together to form a unique Dao Body that can break the limitation and enter the Taboo Realm.'
Wang Wei's brow furrowed, 'This plan sounds doable, but there is a major flaw - True Heavenly Dao. It would not allow someone to prove the Dao nine times, let alone become an Eternal Emperor nine times. No, it probably wouldn't let anyone participate in the Heaven Will Battle a second time unless they abandoned their status as Emperors. So, how did he protect his seeds from being detected or annihilated?'
Millions of thoughts flashed in Wang Wei's mind every second, and he soon deduced the answer: 'The Paradox - he did not create it just to protect the Spirit Genesis Sect or allow the broken Empyrean Artifact to exist in the lower dimension, but to hide his reincarnation and power seed; it was definitely his primary objective, and the others were either a byproduct or necessary steps for the entire endeavor.'
Wang Wei felt he was close to the truth despite not having his Fate Dao to help or give him the answer.
'However, this raises even more questions: how did Emperor Jia know how to use the Paradox to cover his activities? Such a brilliant idea could only be thought of by a Dao Lord or Overlord, which he probably is, but executing it is not a question of intelligence but ability.
'Can a Great Emperor create a paradox to hide such a major thing from True Heavenly Dao? No, even the Paradox involved changing True Heavenly Dao's records, and that's not something that any Paragon can do?'
Once again, he had more answers and even more questions. The most likely explanation is that Emperor Jia was once a pinnacle Paragon, maybe even a Primal Paragon, and spent an untold amount of time deducing this method. Then, he abandoned his strength and started over to achieve the Taboo Realm.
'If that's true, he's scarier than the Human Emperor, as he would have to abandon his strength as a Boundless Paragon to start over.' Anyone who can make such a ruthless decision has terrifying Willpower and mental fortitude.
'Adding his intelligence, he's a more than worthy foe,' concluded Wang Wei, who immediately decided to end this battle as quickly as possible to capture Emperor Jia and get more answers from his soul or memory. However, before Wang Wei reacted, Emperor Jia clapped his hands to release a strange energy into the Void Battlefield.
