Wang Wei once again checked on the development of the court despite only a few seconds having passed. He couldn't help since he had experienced countless Yuan Epochs in that test. Nothing had changed, but he also needed to prepare for the next major development.
'It's still a little early,' he thought before retreating. In the past 20,000 years, his strength reached the fourth step of the Dragon Phoenix Realm, but his tribulations had only reached 953 since he was so busy with the ceremonies.
To prepare for the Existence Ceremony, he practiced creating the other ceremonies he planned as practice. So, he wasted a lot of time and could not focus too much on cultivation. He activated his Time Acceleration Array and started to cultivate.
With each new Dao, his body was destroyed and reconstructed so he could one day claim the title of being [Indestructible]. Wang Wei did not stop until he reached the fifth step in the Dragon-Phoenix Realm and passed the 1267th tribulation - which is the one-third required to open the gate.
As expected, a new symbol appeared on his Gate of Power, and after reaching this threshold, he could sense a subtle change: it was more ancient, nobler, and mystical.
'I could probably open the gate right now, but my body would explode,' thought Wang Wei. Opening the gate without reaching the tenth step will result in absolute death without any chance to resist or opportunity to revive.
Wang Wei clenched his fist, feeling the strength coursing through his veins. He now had the strength of a 5-fold Battle Realm with his flesh alone. However, the scariest part is how terrible his current defense is. Many Daos are simply useless to him. He could just stand before an Eternal Emperor with any of these Daos and let them attack, which would be useless.
'The interesting aspect of the True Power Dao Realm is that it actually affects my [Existence],' he analyzed as he sensed the deeper changes in his body. 'If my Dao cultivation is adding characteristics of [Eternal] into my existence, then this path is adding [Indestructible] characteristics. However, it seems minor and subtle; I'll most likely have to wait to open the gate for this transformation.'
Wang Wei slowly walked out of his cultivation room. He sensed the vast faith with people worshiping him from across the lower dimension. If he were walking the path of Godhood, or even the Soul Path, he would truly be a nightmare with how much faith he had gathered.
He checked things, and he was immediately satisfied with the result. Another 10,000 years had passed, but the expansion had quickened its pace drastically. They had already conquered over 700 of the Commerce Hub's territory, leaving only 200 world communities - 300 if you count the people still under President Tian Wenyan's "control."
Interestingly, this was not the limit of the Heavenly Emperor Era. The Steward and Sword One had convinced dozens of worlds outside of the Commerce Hub's influence to join with them without a fight. The only troubling news Wang Wei received was the fact that the Fate Shadow Guards discovered countless worlds with secret influence from the Abyss Gap - just like the one he found in the East Lotus Sect.
They've been tasked with eliminating these branches, but after a few successful operations, they became better at hiding themselves. Wang Wei did not waste time as he immediately divined many of these locations, but after less than 10 seconds, an unknown power blocked him. He sent the information to Wang Ju while remaining deep in thought.
'You guys might be able to remove all detection methods, but you won't be able to remove that subtle aura that Heaven and Earth reject on a fundamental level,' Wang Wei sneered. He believes that because Chtulun or the Old Gods originated outside the Chaos Universe, Heaven, and Earth reject their very nature; that's the source of that subtle aura. So, all he needs to do is track that, and it should be simple since these branches cannot completely hide themselves.
'Creating a formation or talisman to track that aura should not be an issue, but such a project takes time, and I don't want to focus too much on it.'
Wang Wei could already tell his time on the lower dimension was not much, both because he would soon achieve all his major goals and ambitions and because True Heavenly Dao was beginning to reject his presence. As such, he needed to speed up a few things and did not wish to waste time on such a project.
In fact, it was not just him. Most of the Eternals in the Myriad Emperor are beginning to feel the same. Their strengths are approaching the 6-fold limit, meaning they all need to re-establish their foundation if they wish to go higher. They also understand that it would be best to do so in the upper dimension under the protection of powerful elders and, more importantly, far away from Wang Wei in case he suddenly felt like their strength was encroaching on him.
He snapped his finger and a projection of Tong Ruobing refining a talisman manifested before him.
"Wang Wei? Damn it, you can't just summon people like this! What if Mu Lei and I were...Anyway, show some respect and decency fitting to your image and titles."
"If I wanted to watch you guys, no one would be able to stop or detect it, so don't worry about it," he replied casually-maybe too casually.
"I didn't know you were this kind of pervert." Tong Ruobing gave him an odd look, her eyes full of scrutiny and judgment.
"I'm a complex man, so who knows what kind of things I'm into," Wang Wei shrugged, and Tong Ruobing was instantly speechless. The strange thing was that she would not be surprised if this man suddenly developed a habit of voyeurism, and this thought scared her. She removed that horrible idea from her mind.
"What do you want?"
"I need you to make a talisman to track the unique aura from Abyss Gap Blood?"
"What do you need such a thing for?"
"To remove some uncontrollable variables," Wang Wei replied, and he was telling the truth. According to his speculation, it won't be long before achieving Taboo Battle Realm and confronting the Abyss Gap. However, he wanted to remove these branches due to his cautious nature.
"I see. Unfortunately, I've sealed this thing and decided not to touch it again for a long time."
"That's fine. Lend it to me, and I'll ask somebody else."
Tong Ruobing stared at him, "Don't you understand the concept of bargaining? Back and forth? Exchanging benefits? I thought this was your entire motto." She did not expect him to just abandon her like that.
"And don't you understand the concept of doing someone a favor without asking anything in return just to cultivate interpersonal relationships? You should have a better emotional intelligence than that."
Tong Ruobing was speechless for a second time in this brief conversation. "Fine, you win - as usual. I'll get it done as soon as possible." She ended the projection without giving any time to respond, making Wang Wei smile.
'Little girl, you're a few yuan epochs too young to think you can win me in an argument.'
While in an excellent mood, his gaze was directed toward the Commerce Hub's continent. With a single thought, the continent disappeared, merging with the Dream World. Then, every member - both online and not - received a notification: [Dear Dream Users, there is a new major update. All services previously provided by the Commerce Hub will not be accessible through the Dream World. Thank you for your time. Have a pleasant day.]
It took some people time to process what this meant, but the wise ones immediately knew and were elated. The Dream World was mainly a form of communication and training. However, regarding resources training and such, the Commerce Hub was still used primarily by all these world communities.
People would make deals in the Dream World, but they still needed to reach the hub's continent or pay for delivering services for whatever resources they needed - unless they were exchanging things like cultivation, techniques, or selling information. Or if their world was directly connected to the hub, which was not necessarily a good thing after that war.
But things would now be different. Resources can be instantly transported across world communities, and the Dream World would serve as a protective intermediary. Additionally, the Dream Coin system was a much better monetary system than the ones the Commerce Hub was previously using, meaning it would become way easier to exchange goods.
In conclusion, the lower dimension was about to enter an era of free and easy resource distribution. The golden age of prosperity that people thought had almost reached its pinnacle received another major boost.
'The next step is the rise of tourism,' Wang Wei thought. One of the adverse effects of the war was the subtle hatred between the former Hub's worlds and Wang Wei's side, and he needed more time to appease. As such, allowing these people to use the Dream World to travel to other communities was not a good idea.
