"What about our Artifacts?" asked the Palace Master.
Element One was momentarily quiet, "I tracked the imprint from them."
"And?"
"They are deep into the Western Pure Land."
The Palace Master groaned, "If that's the case, we might never be able to take them back."
"Feng Heng's goal is easy to guess," uttered Element One. "He wants to use the item to access Taoism's luck. As long as we prevent this from happening, the artifacts will soon become useless in his hand.
"By then, we can pay the necessary price to get them back."
"And if that doesn't work?"
"We will offer a deal with the final winner to recover them. And if that does not work, we will start an Emperor Dao War with the new Buddhist Sect."
No Emperor Lineage can allow their Qi Luck Artifact to flow out, especially when they lost two of them. As such, the Five Element Balance Palace will do whatever is necessary to deal with Feng Heng and his Buddhist Sect.
Di Clan:
Di Cong watched the screen before him, clenching his hands so hard that the power of law fluctuated in the surroundings. He had complete and utter faith in his son, believing nothing and no one between Heaven and Earth could prevent him from proving the Dao in this generation.
His confidence reached an all-time high after learning about how Di Tian had Third Class strength. So, when his son told him Wang Wei was still a competitor to be wary of, he did not take it seriously.
He thought his son was just being careful, which made him appreciate the latter more, as this showed he did not let his newfound strength get to his head.
But now, as he watched Wang Wei display the most basic fire spell and feel its might on par with his son's wind spell, his heart was in turmoil. All his confidence shattered as he was overwhelmed by too many complicated thoughts.
"Old Patriarch, there is no need to worry," said one of the Clan Elders who knew about Di Tian's strength. "The patriarch still has a higher chance of winning.
"Remember what happened when the patriarch reached such a state? There were Heavenly Auspicious Signs. Meanwhile, Wang Wei had divine punishment."
The elder rushed his brain, putting many things together to reassure the Old Patriarch and the other people of the clan.
"Yes, the Great Elder is right. Old Patriarch, there is no need to worry," reassured another Elder.
"You don't understand," said Di Cong, his face calm, but his eyes betrayed his inner turmoil. "Wang Wei is the Son of Era, meaning he has fate, destiny, and luck on his side.
"With the same starting line and strength, his advantage will manifest."
The Elders knew he was correct. And before revealing their strength, most people who knew of Di Tian's real strength did not believe in him to be the final winner because of his lack of destiny.
If the patriarch had an overwhelming advantage in power, then he could easily ignore Wang Wei's destiny as the Son of Era. Unfortunately, the playing field has been leveled, and the slightest difference might give one person an advantage over the other.
"Old Patriarch, what can we do?"
"Di Tian was aware of this, so he should be prepared. The only thing we can do is wait."
Heaven Will Battlefield, Fire Layer:
Feng Heng did not leave after forfeiting; he wanted to watch the battle between them. So, he watched how Di Tian and Wang Wei dealt with the fog, released their aura, and used the Emperor Tier Attack.
'Amitabha,' chanted Feng Heng repeatedly in his mind, trying to calm down. After a few seconds, he barely managed to regain his bearing.
"It is the greatest misfortune of any Heaven Chosen to live in the same generation as those two."
He sighed deeply before choosing to leave. He felt his Dao Heart might be affected if he stayed any longer in this place. Furthermore, his intuition warned him of great danger. So, he asked Heavenly Dao to send him out.
And to his delay, he appeared before the entrance of the Western Pure Land. Without hesitation, he headed into the inner core. He needed to meditate and calm down before using the Heart of Hope.
His current state was not the best to prove the Dao.
Ancient Clan:
A meeting occurred amongst a few of the Insurgent of the Ancient Clan; to be precise, the clans who knew about the actual plan of the Ancient Clan.
