876 Unknown Power
Kacha!
The sounds of something breaking echoed in the endless void, and Di Tian opened his eyes, his complexion paler than the whitest snow. He knelt in the void while breathing heavily.
He gazed at Wang Wei with unmatched fury, his eyes dripping with tears of blood. However, his eyes were no longer the same as they used to be. They now contained an underlying sadness and pain forever etched deep in his mind.
Di Tian knew he was not the same man he was a few minutes ago. A part of him died, and he might never regain whatever he lost. For a moment, he regretted killing Li Jun. However, he understood he could not go back and did not want to.
With the last remaining sanity he had left, he tried to remove the memories of what he experienced in that illusion. Sadly, Wang Wei seemed to have used a potent curse to engrave these memories deep in his soul.
Di Tian immediately used his knowledge of curses to remove these memories, but his attempt failed again. Curses can infinitely power depending on how much of a price their casters are willing to pay.
Unfortunately for him, Wang Wei paid a high price. He sacrificed the spiritual power equivalent to a Great Emperor to ensure the curse remained, and Di Tian will be plagued with these memories for a long time.
Di Tian cursed inward as he understood that it would take him a few years–even a decade- to remove them from his soul even if he proved the Dao. That's how far Wang Wei was willing to go to make him suffer.
Di Tian's aura suddenly became chaotic. His agitated mood made
his collapsing spirit even worse. Two lights inside his Sea of Di Tian's aura suddenly became chaotic. His agitated mood made his collapsing spirit even worse. Two lights inside his Sea of Consciousness became more intense as they continued soothing and repairing his Primordial Spirit.
Meanwhile, Wang Wei was calmly watching. While Di Tian was in this weak and chaotic state, his eyes could see things he could previously not.
So, he saw the Bodhi Tree and another artifact trying to maintain Di Tian's spirit. Furthermore, he knew these two things working together allowed Di Tian to escape his illusion.
If it were up to him, he would have tortured him until the end of time.
'This thing should be his Proving Dao Artifact,' said Wang Wei as he looked at the floating pagoda releasing brilliant black and white lights. 'Why is it so powerful?'
Wang Wei could tell the artifact was similar to his–it contained a mysterious Dao Rhyme indicating its power and potential. And after the Grand Dao Baptism, after proving the Dao, it should give a boost of at least 5%.
However, he also discovered Di Tian's artifact was more potent than his.
'Is it because he used more Chaos Treasure to refine and temper it?' analyzed Wang Wei, his mind working extremely fast. Although he was in a state of unmatched rage and no bottom line, his fury was also a silent and calm one.
He knew the battle's importance and would not let his emotions affect the outcome–especially now that the same stakes were even higher. He cannot lose this battle if he wishes to see Li Jun again
and as soon as possible.
'The Chaotic Rhyme released by the artifact is indeed much higher than mine. But that's not the main cause of its uniqueness.'
Based on his analysis, Di Tian's artifact will give him a minimum of 6% Grand Dao Source Boost, and that's only the minimum. As such, he wanted to know why since it could be a major factor that decides the outcome of this battle.
'It could be due to the baptism of Samsara.'
Cultivators can reincarnate with their powers. In fact, it is how most cultivators who choose to reincarnate do. The artifact will then serve as their protector and ensure they survive the early stages of reincarnation.
It can also ensure they begin to walk the path of cultivation before awakening their memories by storing their cultivation techniques in the artifact. The artifact can also serve as a Luck Condensing Artifact to ensure that the reincarnator has plenty of luck to survive and grow.
As such, reincarnating with a weapon or artifact is a prevalent thing.
From what Wang Wei learned from the Oracle Mirror, Di Tian had a Bloodline Artifact in his first life when he fought against his ancestor–Qiyuan.
