1084 The Treasury
Qian Heng closed his eyes. He thought he could accept whatever occurred in this meeting with a calm mind, but he was wrong. He also did not trust the Peaceful Life Palace, so he did not advocate for them as much as he should-he even closed one eye when the people attacked them. If he had controlled his distrust of foreigners or thought more rationally and talked his people into leaving after this war to deal with the issue of the Peaceful Life Palace, many things would have gone differently.
"Your majesty, we have a request as well."
Wang Wei glanced at Taoist Serenity, "Oh, I'm listening."
"We would like to relocate our palace to the Myriad Emperor World."
As soon as he uttered these words, the atmosphere in the room changed. The remorseful martial artists suddenly felt more guilt and regret. Now that they knew the Peaceful Life Palace was innocent, they did not want to lose an Emperor Lineage with five Great Emperors. The Western Bliss Sect representative frowned, while the Taiyi Profound Palace and other Taoist Lineages had shining eyes.
"Are you serious?" asked Wang Wei.
"Yes, and we are prepared for a full relocation. We will change our citizenship identity and change our cultivation system. We only ask to preserve our Taoist traditions."
Qian Heng wanted to say something but was too ashamed, especially to Reverend Tranquility, so he kept his mouth closed.
"Interesting," uttered Wang Wei. "And you don't blame me for falsely accusing you and causing so much pain and loss?"
"All is fair in war," replied Taoist Serenity.
"I'll allow it," said Wang Wei with a smile. Since such a powerful sect wants to move into his world and increase its inheritance, why should he refuse? He turned his head to the corner to Daoist Evergreen, the Department Head of General Affairs.
"Help them with the transition and treat them like our own. Also, work with Foreign Affairs to see if we can lure other powerful sects to our world."
"Your majesty, is this a good idea?" said a representative. "More sects will also mean more competition, and not to mention the issue of trustworthiness."
"All of you should already understand that from now on, all Heaven Will Battles will reach a new height in competitiveness and should already prepare," said Wang Wei. "However, you have a point; we can't allow people to infiltrate our world with this measure. Evergreen, you should be strict in your requirements for selection."
"As you wish."
"Any more questions, requests, or concerns?"
No one said anything, so the meeting continued. They discussed the gritty details before assigning people to different posts. After Wang Wei dismissed everyone, the people scattered. Some people stayed in this world to help it recuperate, some went to use their military exploits to increase their strength or get more resources, some returned home, and the rest started the expansion in the Lower Realm.
Wang Wei was alone in the room, thinking about the war. He successfully gathered enough data for training and simulations, but it was not enough. The Martial Hegemony World was in a semi-isolated state, meaning they had little to no connection to other world communities, and they separated themselves from their Lower Realm.
Many of the Myriad Emperor World's future opponents will not be like this; they will have reinforcements from foreign allies and a large pool of soldiers from their Lower Realm.
"There is still a long way to go," muttered Wang Wei before looking in the distance. "It's a shame no one came to their aid." He stood up, preparing to drink with Li Jun, when he suddenly noticed someone and teleported to them.
Cai Song looked around at the destruction of the world, the injured mortals and cultivators, the violence, the cry of pain and despair, and the blood atmosphere that had enveloped it.
"What are you doing?"
"Sect master! You scared me."
"I've been here for a few seconds and even showed my presence, but you were too distracted to notice."
"Sorry about that. I was deep in thought."
"About what?"
"I'm designing a puppet that embodies War and Slaughter."
"Inspired by this war?"
"Yes."
"You should consult Li Jun."
"I will, but I'm still in the early development stages."
"If you need help, don't hesitate to ask the sect."
"I know."
Wang Wei nodded before frowning.
"Is something the matter?"
"I just thought of a place that might contain a puppet you're interested in."
"Oh, where?"
"The Great Qin Treasury," replied Wang Wei; he realized he'd been putting this thing off for a while, and now was the time to open it.
"Great Qin? Are you talking about the Terracotta Warriors?" Cai Song read the sect's secret archive and learned about Great Qin and its history. "Can you take me with you?"
"No, it might be dangerous," replied Wang Wei. "After I open it and get my hands on what's inside, you can study it as much as you want."
"Alright."
Wang Wei chatted with her briefly before leaving to see Li Jun and had a drink. He did not immediately return and stayed until Qian Heng was publicly executed, and he ensured he was completely dead. The world then forgot their first Heavenly Emperor, and the Palm Peak Sect lost an Eternal. Qian Heng's master committed suicide right after witnessing his disciple's public execution. In some twisted way, he was lucky he died so quickly, as he would have to forget him instead.
Wang Wei returned to his court, and without hesitation, he summoned the Human Destiny Sword and quietly activated it. He immediately sensed a hidden pocket dimension and crabbed it into the court. He used his Divine Sense and Fate Dao to check for danger or anything worth paying attention to, but there was nothing.
So, he entered without hesitation. The Human Emperor left a trial for whoever the sword chose, but this was nothing for Wang Wei. He debated whether to pass the test or just bypass it. His hesitation was not out of fear that his actions would activate a hidden mechanism to destroy what's inside; that's not possible with the disparity between his current strength and the Human Emperor when he created this thing.
His only worry was whether the Human Emperor would send a projection to contact him, which is also why he waited so long to open the treasury. Knowing the Human Emperor was the first Qin Emperor and from Earth and the Prehistoric World, Wang Wei wanted to meet him only after becoming a Paragon.
After mulling it over a second, he decided to bypass the test and went directly to the core. Many puppets and formations tried to stop him, but it was useless. Once he reached the core, he found five rooms.
The first room contained an enormous garden with countless well-preserved spiritual herbs, many of which were now extinct. Wang Wei sensed the power of the Grand Dao Source and flew to an isolated area.
"These herbs have been nourished for so long that they've become top Emperor resources," he muttered with shining eyes. He waved his hand and put everything in this garden away before heading to another room.
The second room contained many weapons, including Emperor Artifacts. However, what truly surprised Wang Wei was the two Dao Will Artifacts that survived for this long. He was intrigued and investigated, realizing that the formation used to preserve these artifacts was unique.
'Miscellaneous One should love this formation,' thought Wang Wei before collecting it. The third room was Cai Song's heaven. Hundreds of millions of puppets, and at the front, Wang Wei saw Terracotta Warriors, which were Immortal Tier Puppets.
"Hmm?" Wang Wei found something interesting, and it was not the 2 Eternal Class Puppets. He picked up a gray ball to analyze. "This is perfect for Cai Song." The gray ball was a Puppet Embryo; after refining it, the owner would own a Puppet that grew with them. From his divination, Wang Wei knew this thing would also become Emperor Grade after its user proved the Dao.
'I wonder whether the Human Emperor cultivated Puppet Dao or was there someone else in his team with such accomplishment,' thought Wang Wei before heading to the fourth room, which was a scripture room. There were many techniques, but only two caught his attention.
The first was an incomplete Puppet Scripture and the Human Emperor's [Myriad Emperor Dao Scripture]. As Wang Wei flipped through the scripture, his brow furrowed.
'There is something wrong with this scripture.' Despite how he felt, he could not find anything wrong. He trusted his intuition and would not leave this technique to the sect to prevent future trouble. He put everything away before flying to the last room.
There was nothing except for a blue stone at the center. Wang Wei approached and checked thoroughly before picking it up, and a message immediately appeared in his mind: "After becoming the Heavenly Emperor, a path of unparalleled power will be open for you."
