Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 48

The truth of the matter was that Wang Wei was still in the Dao Opening Sect and was controlling everything behind the scene.

His grandfather True Monarch Yu Zhuang is indeed injured and still healing. As a result, Wang Wei rarely interacted with him and only saw a Projection Clone of him on his fifth birthday. However, he often saw his grandmother from his mother’s side, while the one from his father’ side had long passed away before his birth.

The reason that Wang Wei did not show up to meet the people of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty was due to the fact that his situation is not ideal at the moment. After cultivating the [Ten Thousands Things Adapt To One Sutra] for more than two years, he was always in a weakened state.

Wang Wei and the upper echelon feared that something might be discovered if he was to meet a powerful cultivator like Retired Prince Ji Xiang. They worried that the people of Great Zhou might be able to infer their plan based on the condition of Wang Wei.

So, they made up a plausible excuse to explain his absence.

...

Wang Ju walked in the Wang Family Courtyard as usual to report the latest development of the situation with Crown Prince Ji Song.

As soon as she entered, Wang Ju saw the Young Sect Master wiping out a dark green liquid from the corner of his mouth. At the same time, there was another puddle of dark-green blood or bile in the floor emanating a foul odor, looking quite dangerous.

"Damn poisons," muttered Wang Wei, "What brings you out so early in the morning?"

"Young master, there are new developments in the situation with the Crown Prince."

"Oh, I thought I already explained not to allow him to enter the Trial again?" _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

"According to the Elders, the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty offered a price that is hard to refuse. As such, they wanted to know your opinion on the matter."

Wang Wei was intrigued. The Dao Opening Sect is very powerful and full of resources. If there is something that can actually tempt, it must be extraordinary.

Wang Wei took the jade talisman that explained the price that the people of Great Zhou were willing to offer.

According to this information, when Wang Wei cultivates the [Ancient Desolate Bodyrefining Scripture] to a certain level, he will need material based on the Five Elements to further refine his powerful body.

As such, the Sect’s upper echelons made a list of the 5 most powerful materials in the entire Myriad Emperor World that represent the 5 Elements of Wood, Fire, Metal, Earth, and Water.

They believed that only by providing Wang Wei with the best so he can have a higher chance of being victorious during the Heaven Will Battle. However, despite the deep foundation of the Dao Opening Sect, they could only gather two of the five materials.

The other 3 are either too rare to be found, in the hands of another powerful sect or faction, or even might be already extinct in the long river of time.

However, to their surprise, low and below, the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty offered one of the missing materials as an offer to allow their crown prince to participate in the Pagoda Trials again.

After reading the material again, Wang Wei knew the gist of things. He pondered for a moment before replying. "Tell the Elders that they can accept the offer, but the highest level of trial he can participate in is the Fourth. No more than this. If they insist, tell the Elders that they can just refuse the material."

After saying all of this in a single breath, Wang Wei coughed again and spewed out a few more puddles of black blood.

"Also, add a time limit."
