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?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"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.
Meanwhile, the group was clueless regarding the Weapon Refining Machine and Array Disk. Weapon refining has much in common with pills when it comes to purifying ores using flames and engraving divine runes. They are also similar regarding formulas for pills and special alloys.
Ultimately, ores are not spiritual herbs, and weapon refining is not the same as pill refining. A perfect example of this contrast is Weapon Spirit. Heaven Tier and above Origin Artifacts can have spirit–although the general zeitgeist of the Myriad Emperor World is to only allow their weapon to have a minimum level of intelligence.
However, weapons created and used by the Spirit Race cultivators always have a soul with intelligence. They hoped once they reached a certain cultivation realm or after their death, their weapon could transform and acquire a human body to become a Spirit Race.
However, the alchemy in the Myriad Emperor World does not allow the existence of Pill Soul–except for maybe Emperor Pills. Of course, there is always an exception based on the Pill Master. The point is this slight difference between the two professions makes it more challenging to create the Weapon Refining Machine.
As for the Array Disk, things are even more complicated. Runes are not the only basis for an array; it includes the terrain, the surrounding power of Heaven and Earth, the resonance of law, and so many more.
"I wanted the sect to create this method to acquire more merit, but I think I have to use another approach," commented Wang Wei.
"Oh, what were you thinking? Do you want the Ancestors to work on this project? They could accelerate its completion, but I doubt they can finish it." Yan Liling understood these two projects would require a lot of human resources, somebody with a talent similar to hers, or a great deal of time.
"No, I plan to make this project a worldwide one," said Wang Wei. "Gather all the array masters and weapon refiners of the Myriad Emperor World to complete it."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Sect master, you can't," said Li Zixin, and Luo Yangnian agreed with him.
"Anyone of these projects will grant a tremendous amount of merit. Are you sure it's a good idea to let others benefit?" asked Yan Liling, and all the professionals in the secret realm nodded in agreement with her.
"There is a high chance the sect would need several generations to finish these tasks–unless someone like you appears," added Wang Wei. "However, if the whole world worked together, it could finish in this generation."
"Are there other reasons you want to do this?" Yan Liling asked, feeling it was not that simple.
"Unity," said Wang Wei. "People will not easily accept my reign despite having the power to suppress everyone. However, if the entire world could work together on a project with immense benefit, it would nurture their sense of unity. I will use this opportunity to show them the benefit of my reign."
"It is a good way to show them you're not only our sect's Emperor but the Myriad Emperor World's Emperor," nodded Yan Liling. "Plus, these projects are achievements that will forever ingrain in the history of the entire Endless Void. Many cultivators who pursue fame, glory, and being immortalized will be attracted."
Wang Wei agreed with her as he could see the future benefits. When he spreads his tentacles to the World Communities, he will access the database of their worlds and add them to Yan Liling and these two's projects. So, once they are accomplished, it would indeed be an achievement that could bring tremendous luck to the Myriad Emperor World and the Dao Opening Sect, bringing them more prosperity.
Wang Wei could even foresee the undetectable benefit like national confidence. On earth, the citizens of First World often have a natural confidence compared to Third World countries because of their countries' technological achievements, history, and cultural influence.
And these three projects will have the same effect once spread throughout the lower dimension. Once the citizen of the Myriad Emperor World has this natural confidence and pride in their plane, it would greatly benefit their cultivation and confrontation against other planes.
"So, it's decided," said Wang Wei before looking at the professionals with gloomy looks. "You have until the Heaven Will Battle to work on this project, which will give you a great advantage. If you use that advantage, you guys will be one of the main leaders of the final project and have the most benefit."
After saying these words, Wang Wei left. These people have such an advantage over all the other professionals worldwide. If they cannot use it to get the most benefit, they don't deserve it in the first place.
Yan Lilling looked at these people and said, "You have to understand: the sect has a grand heart and far-seeing vision. While you guys only see the profit in front of you, he sees the benefits hundreds of generations later and plans for it."
Yan Liling left after saying these words. Her vision was better than these people, and she could see the benefit of doing things now and reaping them a few generations later. Nevertheless, she also understood how they felt as she sometimes felt her big brother saw and planned too far in the future. Luckily, she knew to trust his vision and abilities.
Meanwhile, Wang Wei teleported to the Supreme Elder Mountain to see Yan Chen, his former Dao Protector. And also check on his grandfather.
