Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 82: 82. King's Wrath

Kai didn't care about the plan of the king and went to take both treasures. But at the last moment, he stopped himself.

'He is really an ingenious guy. If I didn't think it through, I would have fallen for his trap.'

Kai noticed a formation connected to both the fragment and the plant, if he just touched them, the king would come here immediately.

With the speed of a saint realm cultivator, Kai won't be able to escape.

Kai used his Will Power to check the formation, but he wasn't able to find any clue from it.

'Just what kind of formation is it?'

With curiosity, Kai began to follow the formation line. It expanded outside the Treasury and didn't stop.

'What in the world is that crazy king planning?'

Kai already had some conclusions about the characteristics of the king based on what he had seen so far: ruthless, ambitious, greedy, intelligent, and scheming.

He knew that such a person wouldn't waste a huge amount of resources on such a large, meaningless formation.

Kai decided to check further to confirm his doubt. He left the treasury and found out that the formation had spread to the entire palace.

But that wasn't the end of it. So, Kai used his astral body to fly into the sky and check the situation from above. After checking, Kai became afraid upon seeing the situation.

'Just how did he come up with this plan?'

Kai saw that the formation covered the entire capital. It was hidden carefully, and a normal person wouldn't be able to find it. Only a formation master with a deep understanding of formation dao will be able to detect it.

Kai never thought that the formation would cover the entire scale; he obviously underestimated the scheme of the king.

"Why did he use so many resources on this formation?"

"Did he have some kind of plan using this formation?"

"But for now, I need to leave here; only after I find the purpose of this formation I can obtain the treasure."

Kai muttered and left the treasury using his [Quantum Decoy] ability. He didn't know about the mechanism or dangers in the formation, so he didn't want to risk his life for nothing.

"Hey Dayan, why did you suddenly fly to the sky?" Sahro asked as soon as he saw him.

"I just want to check something, so I left to confirm it," Kai replied calmly after checking that Sahro didn't find anything.

'Oh sh**! How could I forget that?'

Kai immediately remembered his mistakes and used his Astral Projection and Quantum Decoy abilities at the same time.

He left the capital without a second thought. After arriving outside, he didn't stop for a single moment; instead, he accelerated his speed and went away from the capital.

Sahro didn't find anything suspicious since Kai's astral body was with him the whole time.

Soon, the calm capital was surrounded by an overwhelming aura.

"WHO HAS THE GUTS TO INFILTRATE THE ROYAL TREASURY?"

The voice of the king resounded throughout the entire capital.

Every Tier 2 and Tier 1 sand spirit wasn't able to withstand the pressure and knelt.

The king flew outside the palace and stood in the air.

"GUARDS, LOCKDOWN THE ENTIRE CAPITAL; NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO LEAVE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION."

The guards did as the king said without asking any questions.

The king soon spread his aura to search for the culprit who infiltrated the Treasury. But he didn't find anyone suspicious, since everybody was under his control.

'Who is the person capable of breaking the formation, and he didn't even take a single treasure from it?'

The king muttered doubtfully. His anger rested a little bit after finding nothing was missing from the Treasury.

His only doubt was why the thief didn't steal anything after putting in such an effort.

'Did he find the existence of the formation or guess my plan?' The king thought seriously, his hands clenched with unwillingness.

'Don't let me find you, or else I will let you realize what is meant by hell personally.'

After muttering all of this, he left the place. He knew all his people were still under his control, and nobody broke through it, so he didn't suspect any of them.

He decided to increase the security of the Treasury from now on, and he will personally recreate the formation.

Kai, who saw the entire situation using his astral body, breathed a sigh of relief. He almost forgot that he broke the formation; if he continued to stay in the capital after doing all this, only death would await him.

With a brilliant presence of mind, he swiftly left the place. If he didn't leave his astral body in his place, the king may suspect him.

The king personally inspected everybody during the worship, and he knew the number of people who attended the ceremony.

Even though he may not have counted the numbers personally, he can easily check them in his memory. Considering his cultivation level, it was a piece of cake.

Kai thought about everything in that short period and left the place.

'Now, going into the capital will be a serious problem'

The capital was in lockdown due to his interference, and no one was allowed to enter or leave without permission.

With such strict security, it was hard for him to infiltrate.

'Okay, this may be feasible.'

Kai suddenly thought about an idea. If he does that properly, he can break the restrictions of lockdown.

He planned to start a rebellion using the people. Although this plan cannot be used for a short period, it is a good one without any dangers.

The people will accept the lockdown for a month or maybe even two months, but if it exceeds that without any process, they will start getting annoyed.

The king won't be able to kill all of them, even if he wants to kill them, because he needs their faith to nurture the treasure.

At the same time, Kai can research the big formation using his astral body.
