After the performance with Wang Chong, everyone had high expectations of what he was about to say. However, Wang Wei remained calm and asked a question first: "Be honest with me. Throughout the Chaos Universe, how would you rank your fighting ability?"
"If you're talking about pure fighting skill, then I can say with confidence I'm in the top 5, and top 3 if I'm being cocky," Li Ming said calmly.
"That's good. In that case, you can draw inspiration from Maitreya's flaw method," Wang Wei said. "You can visit all your variants and fight them to absorb their battle skills. Then, you can slowly and methodically elevate your skill to the level of transcendence."
"That's an interesting plan, but isn't that a path of condensing a Dao Quintessence?" Li Ming asked,
"Yes, but your path will be walking backwards. You will condense the Dao Quintessence and use its power to nourish your soul and body," Wang Wei explained. Yan Liling had long planned to walk a skill path, and this method was also applicable to her.
"But Grand Dao said…Yes, I can't be limited by its rules," Li Ming said. "However, there must be a reason for placing the restriction that the Soul Quintessence can only be condensed on the third step. Or do you think it's just about control?"
"Control plays a role, but I also think there is some logic to this decision," Wang Wei continued. "What do you think the Dao Quintessence is?"
Li Ming frowned deeply, thinking for a few seconds. Luckily, his big brother came to his rescue: "An independent Grand Dao Source or Grand Construct," Qiyuan said.
"Exactly," Wang Wei nodded. "It makes sense you would need a potent soul and body to contain or control a Grand Construct as powerful as the one in our universe."
Li Ming's eyes shone with brilliant lights. "As long as I can control the size of my Battle Grand Construct, it won't be considered a true Dao Quintessence and can bypass Grand Dao's rules and not suffer any punishment. Then, I will use its power to elevate my body and soul."
"Yes, but you should understand it won't be as simple as you stated," Wang Wei warned.
"Oh, I know," Li Ming nodded. Grand Dao was not a fool, so it would not allow such a loophole to be easily exploited. "Can I see Maitreya's original flawed technique?"
"Oh, no problem," Wang Wei said before condensing an orb and slowly entering the rune world. The recording process took him three hours since he had to do it by memorization instead of just copying an existing version.
"Thanks," Li Ming nodded.
"No problem," Wang Wei said before thinking of something. He hesitated briefly before asking: "Where is the scroll?"
"It's with me," Yan Hai said before summoning it. Wang Wei received it and bought an [Existence Contract]. He recorded the terms and handed them to Qiyuan.
"Before I say anything else, please sign this contract. The information I'm about to share does not belong to me, hence the need for secrecy."
"We understand," Qiyuan said with a smile. This conversation has proven that his decision was correct. Wang Wei was the future of the sect, and he would bring everyone along with him toward the path of transcendence. There is a saying that when a man is enlightened, even his chickens and dogs will become immortal, and that conversation was the best proof of that ancient wisdom.
The contract was straightforward since it was about not revealing any information. So, the three signed it without hesitation.
"If you want to have a head-start for your Dao Quintessence, talk with Wu Hong and she'll allow you to study her seal. However, you must pay her something worth the exchange or owe her a great karma."
Qiyuan squinted his eyes as he put two and two together about his recent missing memory. "No problem."
"Even if you didn't say, we wouldn't take her stuff for granted," Yan Hai added.
"Just making sure," Wang Wei said while sending a talisman to Wu Hong to warn her of what he did. "I think that's everything for now, right?"
"You're a peak Paragon, meaning you have to participate in the Supreme Elder Ceremony," Li Ming reminded, making Wang Wei furrow his brow.
"I remember the ceremony can be a big deal or not based on personal choice, right?"
"Yes. The standard ceremony is to invite all the Overlords and top factions. However, given the current situation, it may be best to keep it in the sect," Li Ming replied.
"Then, let's keep it simple," Wang Wei said.
