Chapter 425: The Sect's Foundation

 

"Kid, if you want to ask me to remove the Karmic Sin on you, don't bother," said Wang Wucheng directly. The training method of the Wang Clan has always been somewhat ruthless: they do not raise waste.

Although the sect can give you many resources and aid, however, when it comes to competition with the younger generation, they would not interfere. And not just the Wang Clan, but the others as well.

This is one of the reasons that the sect has lasted so long and remained so strong. These Ancestors ensure that the successor of the Sect or their respective faction has true capabilities, and does not rely on nepotism.

Don't look at Wang Wei's family has been the patriarch for three generations, but each of them has proven worthy of that title. Wang Chang's father was not the Sect Master nor the Patriarch of the Wang Clan in his generation.

He lost his position to someone else from one of the clan members that lived in the Wang Clan Secret World. And the sect master of that time was a Heaven Chosen from the Yan family.

She was quite talented too, but it was a shame she lost in the Heaven Will Battle.

"No, that's not it," replied Wang Wei. "I want to modify the Battle Tower."

Wang Wucheng paused for a moment, "You want to add that brat from the Di family who beat you as your opponent, fighting with him to gauge your strength and the gap between you two?"

"That's correct."

Wang Wucheng paused for a moment, "Give me your memories and I'll have someone else do it."

Wang Wei did not say anything and use his soul to condense his memories of that fight. He even added the battle Di Tian had with Wu Hong once he was a Devil Prince.

"I will have someone place a deduction method in the tower. That way, it can somewhat predict his strength in higher cultivation realms. However, be warned that it may not be accurate."

Wang Wei nodded before leaving with his father. On his return trip, he asked: "So, when did you break your foundation and had the opportunity to condense the Three Flowers?"

"Well, it was right after I entered the Supernatural Realm, right before the Heaven Chosen Trial, she tricked me into a Dead Zone with no spiritual qi, and a powerful swallowing power that was draining my strength. By the time your grandfather found me, my foundation was also on the verge of collapsing."

"You must have really loved her to marry her in the end," said Wang Wei. From what he knew about his parent's affair, it was full of up and down, with mostly his mother making trouble. And Wang Wei could tell that his father probably had a soft spot for his mother for a very long time and always held back when dealing with her.

"I did," said Wang Tian, as he took a brief visit down memory lane. The moment he first laid eyes on her, he was instantly hooked. Although many other women chased after him during his generation, he only had eyes for her.

Unfortunately, they were competitors and she might not have felt the same way.

"I bet grandfather was not pleased with you, was he?"

Wang Tian's mouth twitched after hearing this. His father noticed how he was treating Yu Yan differently, and after suffering a few losses at her hands because of his affection, he was not happy and forbid the union of the two. And with his temperament, he whooped his son many times because of this.

It was not until what happened to them after they entered one of the Forbidden Areas and they made that oath that he accepted their union.

"Let's not talk about this. How do you feel?"

"Great. Even better than before."

"That's good. Then, how do you feel about meeting the Ancestor?"

Wang Wei pondered for a moment, "In terms of strength, I have nothing I can comment on since I still cannot fathom how powerful he is. However, I do feel that the sect's foundation is deeper than I originally thought."

"Oh, you have no idea, son," replied Wang Tian with a sigh.

"What do you mean?"

"There is a reason we are the strongest sect in the world. I'll give you an example, do you remember the material you needed to temper your organs?"

"Yes, you told me that the sect did not have any more Innate Materials. Was that a lie?"

"Yes. The sect has a few Secret Realms full of Innate Qi where Innate materials are bred. There are even three of them full of Chaos Qi. However, the Founding Ancestor has left rigid rules on how to distribute these resources–especially for Mortal-level individuals."

Wang Wei pondered the issue and understood the reason behind this. Even Quasi-Emperors cannot fully digest or make full use of more than one Innate Herbs, so using them is kind of a waste.

However, Great Emperors, Dao Ancestors, and Immortal Venerables can use these high resources to rapidly increase their strength. As the true foundation of the sect, they are the real reason that it can last for long and it would be best to leave it to them.

A perfect example of a waste of this level of resources is the Ancient Clans. In terms of Immortal-level resources, no sect should be able to compare with them as they are from the Beginning Emperor Era.

At that time, although Innate Qi was in decline, being replaced with Acquired Spiritual Qi, these clans should have had many ways to preserve many Secret Realms full of Innate Qi.

After all, Wang Wei's Ancestors managed to acquire so many of them in the Ancient Emperor Era, that they should be able to do the same. Unfortunately, in the current era, most of these clans are now poor as they refused to adopt the current system.

They overused the Innate Qi and materials from their ancestors and essentially wasted them. If these clans did not cultivate a few Great Emperors that could acquire more resources for them, maybe they would have not lasted this long.

These ancient clans are the result of being too stubborn and conservative, and that applied to the Great Emperors that they cultivated as well. Otherwise, they should have been able to see the problem in their current approach.

And even to this day, they did not want to change their ways of life. According to Huo Fenghuang, they now wanted to change the environment and return it to the period where they flourished.

"Are you mad? Disappointed?" asked Wang Tian after seeing his son silent.

"No, I understand the reason behind this decision. Most likely, the Ancestor did not want us to turn into the current Ancient Clan."

"That's good. Truth be told, the other materials would have been provided for you. However, you would have to go through a bunch of tests to show that you're worthy of using so many resources."

"Can I still take the tests?"

"Why? I thought you already finished tempering your organs?"

"I was thinking about replacing the other materials with Innate one."

He used Supreme Tier materials for his skin, muscles, and bones. Replacing them should help increase his strength.

"When you want, just tell me and I'll set everything up."

Wang Wei nodded his head before suddenly remembering something: "Does the sect have any Ominous Beasts?"

"Ominous beasts? I think one of the Secret Realm left by the Ancient Desolate Emperor has many of them. I remember that it was used as a trial in my generation. After I become sect master, I noticed that too many disciples died in this trial in each generation so I stopped it."

Ominous beasts are a race born from the corpse or blood of Primordial Gods or Innate Demons. Because of this, they are very powerful–especially in the fleshly body department.

However, they are also savage and cruel; the majority of them have little to no intelligence, and the ones that do are extremely cruel as they take pleasure in killing and destruction.

The reason for that is because the deep resentment and hatred of the Innate Demon God that they are born from will affect their mind when they are created, hence the 'ominous' in their name.

Wang Wei was satisfied with this answer as he now had the resources needed to cultivate the [Fiendgod 12 Revolutions], so he was in a good mood.

After exiting the secret realm, he took a deep breath, taking in the fresh air. Then, an idea to make his mood even better came to him.

"How about we go for a couple of rounds?"

Wang Tian's mouth twitched after hearing this, "I refused."

He knew that his son's current strength outclassed–especially after that punch. And if he transformed into the Ancient Desolate Body, he would lose even more miserably.

"How can you refuse? I finally have the opportunity and strength to legally beat you,"

"That's exactly why I refuse."

"If you don't fight me, I'll tell grandfather that you have been holding back in all of his fights."

Wang Tian glared at his son. One of his biggest secrets was that ever since he entered the Void Shattering Realm, his father was not a match for him. However, he took the old man's face into account and let him believe that he was stronger than him.

As for how his son discovered the truth? He guessed it was probably when he used his Fate Technique to fuse their strength.

"You can tell him if you want. He probably already guessed the truth."

Wang Tian would rather be beaten by his old man than his son. He has to retain his last dignity as a father.

"You…," said Wang Wei. "If I can deal with you, I'll let mom do it."

"Fine. I'll rather sleep by myself for a thousand years than suffer defeat at your hands."

Wang Wei gritted his teeth as he stared at his old man. He snorted before flying away. He would be petty to the end and let his mother deal with him. And from now, he will use all kinds of taunts until he forced his father to fight him.

(AN: I will try to speed up the pace from now as this volume has a lot of things to cover.)
