One of the hidden dangers of the Dao Opening Sect's political system is the unbalance of power between the three factions and the sectarian side. And in this generation, the balance will further intensify as each of the three families has a Great Emperor, but the sectarian side remains the same.
With the Ancestors' existence, the chances of this contradiction reaching the stage of affecting the sect's foundation is very low, but not impossible. If the sectarian Ancestors become fed up with the unbalance of power one day, the situation will be aggravated.
Statistically, Wang Wei knew the chances were low. However, he also considered outside interference. He has infiltrated other factions before and taken them down from the inside. He was not so arrogant to believe he was the only one capable of such a feat–especially with the example of Di Tian's Sleepers infiltrating the sect.
Luckily, fate favored him and brought him two talents: Cai Song and Jin Mengyao. If the sect plays its card well, the following four generations of Emperors will belong to them, and the sectarian faction will acquire two, bringing back the balance of the sect. The only trouble was the issue of Eternal Emperors, but he did not have to worry too much about that.
"Is there anything else?" asked Wang Wei, and the elders shook their heads. So, he left. Wang Wei teleported to a secret realm with several of the sect's professionals.
"Sect master," saluted everyone.
"At ease," he replied. "How are things going?"
"Not good, I'm afraid," said Li Zixin with embarrassment. In this generation, he is considered the most talented Weapon Refiners–surpassing the previous generation despite only recently becoming a True Monarch.
"What about you?"
"The same," replied Luo Yongnian; he was also embarrassed. He has a similar status as Li Zixin and is considered the most talented Array Master in this generation.
"Compared to Elder Yan Liling, we are too far behind." Previously, he and Li Zixin were not convinced, asking themselves why their prestige was not the same as Yan Liling. But after working on this project, they understood.
Wang Wei checked their progress and frowned. These two were in charge of a project similar to Yan Liling's Automatic Pill Cauldron. Wang Wei wanted a machine that only required placing the material, and an Artifact will be created.
The same is true for Arrays. He wanted to create an Array Disc containing all the divine runes. And a person only needed to choose the specific array–like Qi Gathering Array or Star Protecting Array–and the disk would use the appropriate runes. His vision is in the future, a person does not need to input a specific array but a specific purpose.
The function would be similar to a search function where the cultivator told the Disc: I want an array to temper the body, and the disk showed him Gravity Tempering Array, Bone Grinding Array, Blood Condensing Array, etc. The cultivator only needs to choose which they see fit. They can organize arrays to fit their specific circumstances to have better effects.
As for a project similar to Talisman, Wang Wei only had a basic group doing the research, and that's due to two reasons. Firstly, there were no genuinely talented Talisman Makers in the past two generations. Secondly, talismans were too similar to arrays.
If arrays' core philosophy is to levy or borrow the might of Heaven and Earth, talismans are to store it in something small and portable before using it later on.
While reviewing the progress of these projects, Yan Liling also appeared in this place. And after looking at the progress, she also frowned.
"Things might be more complicated than originally thought," she commented, and Wang Wei agreed. The main reason for Yan Liling's success was due to her Innate Talent.
The best way to describe it is to have a database and a search and guide function. Yan Liling's knowledge served as the database, so as long as she wanted to create a pill, her Innate Talent would instantly use the database to generate the pill for her.
However, if the pill she wants to create is beyond the means of the database, the search and guide function will activate in the form of intuition and direct her to the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to create the pill. Of course, her Innate Talent has a limit, as tested by Yan Liling. If she desired to make some outlandish things, it would not work.
With her talent as a blueprint, Yan Liling first created a database that she installed in the Cauldron. And recently, she's been trying to recreate her talent's search and guide function to add to the cauldron.
