Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 69: 69. Failure

Kai could do a lot with Will Manipulation ability. He can do anything he wants using this ability, but that is only applicable to the law.

He also needs to unlock the elements himself before he can manipulate them, he is also not using them to their full potential.

Kai started walking after finishing his battle. After nearly a week, Kai finally arrived at the destination, and the fragment also reacted.

But he appeared near the same thunder ape.

'What the fu** is happening? Is that ape having the fragment?' Kai cursed his luck.

He came to the only logical conclusion to this situation, which is that the thunder ape has a fragment.

'How can I obtain the fragment?' Kai doesn't want to go empty-handed, so he thought of a solution.

'Should I try assassinating it? No, it is too risky, and there are a lot of uncertain factors involved in the plan.'

Kai thought about the plan and gave up. He didn't know the strength of a Tier 4 beast and also didn't know the capabilities of the domain. So he didn't want to risk his life based on his guess alone.

Kai didn't know that his decision to avoid assassinating the thunder ape saved his life.

A saint realm cultivator or a Tier 4 beast can easily sense the changes in the surroundings without any effort; if he tried assassination without sufficient strength, it would be a certain death.

Kai moved a little farther away and used his Cosmic Awareness ability to gather information about the thunder ape.

'This is going to be a headache.' Kai thought after digesting all the information.

He can use his cosmic awareness ability to obtain information about the past six months. So using that, Kai checked the activities of the Thunder Ape for six months.

But he obtained only one piece of information: that the ape likes to sleep and is always sleeping.

It wakes up at random times, goes out, and will come back. After that, it will sleep again.

'Its behavior is similar to that of a certain creature. Wake up, eat, and sleep; what a life.' Kai thought while reminiscing about his past.

Kai decided to wait patiently and decided to steal the fragment after the ape went outside. He knew that the chances of getting out alive after attempting assassination were zero, so he chose the only available plan, which was also the safest.

Kai left the surroundings of the ape and found a good hiding spot. After that, he captured a lot of insects for him to spy on.

He didn't use this ability after arriving at the Death Abyss since there isn't a single bit or insect near the territory of Dragon Lair.

They would just die from the aura remaining in the air, so there isn't a single insect or bug near Kai for him to capture and acquire information from.

After placing the insect at a safe distance, Kai sat on a tree and waited.

Seeing the thunder ape doesn't seem like waking up soon. Kai decided to meditate while commanding the insects to keep an eye on the ape.

After a long time, the thunder ape finally woke up from its sleep and went outside.

'It's time to make the move.' Kai thought after ending his meditation.

Seeing the ape wasn't near the vicinity, Kai went to search for the fragment in the location.

Kai started searching near the place where the ape stayed, but he didn't have enough time to search carefully since he noticed the return of the ape using the insects.

Kai left the place immediately to avoid getting caught. He didn't stay near the ape to spy; instead, he left the location and escaped far away.

'Why did the ape return quickly?'

Kai didn't stay near the ape since it couldn't find him, so he left and arrived far away from there.

'It seems I don't have any other choice.'

After thinking for a long time, Kai decided to execute his backup plan. He didn't want to use the backup plan in Death Abyss, but he decided to take the risk.

Kai left Whispers of Echo and left for his tree house. He needed a quiet environment without any disturbance, so he left the forest.

Kai arrived at his cave after a day. After that, he took a huge dragon body from his storage ring.

It was the reward he got from the grand elder. He didn't choose the Nirvana Pill or that Pure White Lotus as his reward.

The Nirvana Pill mostly depends on the luck and fate of a person to perform a miracle. Kai knows that his luck isn't good, so he doesn't even think about selecting it.

The Pure White Lotus was his first choice. It was almost a second life chance since it could bring a dying person to perfect condition without any side effects in the saint realm.

He regretted not selecting the Pure White Lotus after arriving at the Death Abyss, since it took him a long time to heal from the injuries.

But at that time in the Treasury, he didn't consider himself in this type of situation and also thought about his evergreen ability, so he didn't select it.

The final option is peak Tier 4 dark dragon. Kai chose the body of that dragon for one reason: to upgrade his bloodline.

He wanted to acquire the abilities of the dragon clan. His bloodline only needs the correct materials to develop its own ability.

Kai thought about his ability for a long time and finally decided on the bloodline power of the dragon and phoenix as a base.

His first choice was the phoenix because of its rebirth ability, but he wasn't fortunate enough to obtain its bloodline or body; he didn't even find some beast with phoenix blood.

So he chose the dark dragon with high potential. Its bloodline is almost as pure as that of a normal true dragon.

Kai wanted to obtain his bloodline ability at the time of his nirvana, since during the process of nirvana, his entire being gets reborn.

In the process, every part of his body will be purified and also created again. If he used the bloodline source of the dragon at that time, his bloodline ability may have broken the limits of the dark dragon.

But now Kai had to acquire his bloodline power. He wanted to acquire an ability related to darkness to steal the fragment.

The darkness is perfect for sneaking and spying, so it is a great help for his plan. He also plans to create a technique to use the Heavenly Dao's aura on him.

The Heavenly Dao is hiding Kai's Will Path by placing its aura on him. It is an inexhaustible energy that clocks him all the time.

Kai wanted to use that aura to hide his presence and avoid leaving any trace in the process.

Kai didn't want to steal it from the thunder ape, but he didn't have any safer plan that had a high success rate, so he had to stick to stealing.

Then, Kai took a knife and tried disassembling the dark dragon's body, but his small knife didn't even leave a mark on it. He took Yang Wudi's spear and tried cutting with it, but the same thing happened.

'It seems my decision to avoid confrontation with the thunder ape is correct,' Kai thought in relief.

Seeing that he didn't leave a single mark on the body of a dead Tier 4 beast using his full physical strength, Kai realized their strength.

If Kai had decided to battle against the thunder ape in arrogance because of his sudden increase in strength, he would have died without even attacking a single time.

Tier 4 beings, whether they are humans or beasts, are on a whole other level.

If we consider a divine realm cultivator or a Tier 3 beast as a planet-scale powerhouse, then Tier 4 or Saint realm cultivators are solar system-level powerhouses.

In the same sense, Tier 5 or supreme realm powerhouses are galaxy-level powerhouses, and Emperor-level beings are on a universal scale.

There were a lot of people who fought against higher-level cultivation than them and also won the battle, but they weren't normal people; they were geniuses among geniuses.

The gap between the realms cannot be bridged by a normal person.

Kai has the potential to fight against cultivators of higher realms, but he needs time for that. He isn't capable for now.

Kai took the spear and attacked the weakest part of the dragon. His spear pierced the dragon's eye and plunged into it.

Kai started drilling on one side to cut the body from the inside. He also took a pill box to store the blood.

After getting enough samples, Kai started his research.

The first one was to find the compatibility between his bloodline and the dragon's bloodline. He cut his finger and took blood from it.

After that, he began to mix both of them to see the reaction between them. He used his Will Power to directly check it.

'There is no rejection between them for now; it is good so far.'

Kai was afraid of his blood not being compatible with the dragon's since he is not the same race as them and his body may reject it as a foreign invader.

This could happen because the immune system of the human body works that way; it will not tolerate any foreign species.

Kai doesn't know that his body isn't supposed to accept the bloodline of a dragon. It was totally because of his transcendental foundation that he was capable of accepting it.
