Chương 41: A Bait That Is Hard To Resist

The Spirit Road is in fact a trial created by Heavenly Dao to not only properly train Heaven Chosen of the Myriad Emperor World, but also a way to entice geniuses from the Lower Plane to enter the Myriad Emperor World.

According to knowledge that Wang Wei learned from the library, in the endless void, there are hundreds of Heaven Mandate Worlds like the Myriad Emperor Plane.

Each Heaven Mandate Plane--which is a plane who has the power to give birth to a Great Emperor--is made up of a Community of Countless World that take said Heaven Mandate plane as its center.

In each community, there are countless Great Thousand Worlds, Middle Thousand World, and Lower Thousand World.

All these worlds combined together can be called the Lower Plane. Of course, it does not mean that the Myriad Emperor World is in charge of these worlds. No, there are so many worlds out there, some have not even been discovered.

However, the Myriad Emperor World can be considered the Ruler of the community it is currently located in.

In the Myriad Emperor World, mortals usually start to cultivate between the age of 15-18 years. These years are the optimal age when both the mind and the body have matured enough to start cultivating without leaving any hidden dark injuries.

Before each generation starts to cultivate, there is an event that usually takes place: the Spirit Road.

The Spirit Road is a secret realm organized by heavenly Dao itself where Heaven Chosen are left to fight, survive, and kill each other alone for a whole year without any cultivation level or any help from the outside.

As long as you enter the Spirit Road, your cultivation will be completely stripped or sealed and you will not be able to cultivate for a whole year. Participants cannot use any kind of weapons or help from the outside.

The purpose of the Spirit Road Trial is in fact to hone the killing and survival instinct of every geniuses. More importantly, during the year-long slaughter, these Heaven Chosen can actually plunder the Qi Luck of each other.

The more a person kills, the more luck he can gather. It is totally normal for a person's Qi Luck to go from a carp fish to a true dragon; or from a red color Qi Luck to a purple color.

Of course, the participants still cannot achieve a Qi Luck of Purple-Gold.

Additionally, the Secret Realm that the Spirit Road Trial takes place has countless opportunities left over from different battlefields throughout the Myriad Emperor Plane.

It is possible for someone to be lucky enough to acquire Quasi-Emperor Artifacts or even an Emperor level Scriptures. Although these two things are actually quite rare, it's not unheard of people acquiring these things from the Spirit Road.

Because of the Spirit Road's ability to raise Heaven Chosen, many factions will send their disciples to participate in the trial.

In fact, Heavenly Dao will also scatter trial tokens throughout many worlds in the Lower Plane to invite either geniuses or lucky ones to participate in the trial.

That way, these geniuses will have a chance to enter one of the sects or factions of the Myriad Emperor Plane based on their performance.

In fact, many Great Emperors were born from the Lower Plane and got their chance at the Heaven Mandate through the Spirit Road Trial. Of course, these people from the Lower Plane still need an Identity Token to be able to participate in the fight for the Heaven Mandate.

And how do they get the Identity token? Of course from the powerful sects or families in the Myriad Emperor World.

These factions have gone through great length to prevent people from the Lower Plane from becoming Great Emperor without their support. No matter how talented a person from the Lower plane is, without an Identity Token, he or she cannot participate in the fight for Heaven Mandate.

So, even if they do not want to, they have to attach themselves to a powerful force if they want a chance to proclaim themselves Emperor.

...

Wang Wei notices that this year Spirit Road is quite different.

Due to the fact that the top 3 physiques appeared at the same time, this year Spirit Road should be a festival fest of powerful Heaven Chosens slaughtering each other like gladiators locked in a caged arena.

However, things seemed to be the opposite. The #1 physique seems to be still somewhere in the Lower Plane, the number 3 physique is nowhere to be found. And the number 2 physique showed no desire to participate in the trial four years later.

Everyone seemed to ignore the Spirit Road this time, which is in fact bad news for Wang Wei who actually wanted to meet the top 3 physique to further his plans.

In the Wang Family Mountain, inside the Main Courtyard, Wang Wei called his head maid Wang Ju for a meeting.

Upon seeing her, Wang Wei asked her to hand over all the information she had of the Number 2 physique.

Wang Wei read the information:

"Ji Song, Male, 12 years old, Heavy Axe Physique, Crown Prince of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty. When he was born, there was a vision of a giant slaughtering countless Demons and Gods with an axe."

"Personality: He is rash and arrogant. Prefers to use his strength to solve most problems. He has an older brother named Ji Su who he loves very much. Despite the fact that his eldest brother has been deprived of the right to the throne due to his birth, the relationship between the two is actually quite harmonious. The eldest brother has no problem supporting his younger brother."

After reading the information, Wang Wei begins to ponder. Based on the information at hand, he came to the conclusion that Ji Song is the kind of person who will rush to any kind of situation as long he believed it was beneficial to him.

As such, as long as he provided him with the necessary bait, maybe he could lure him to change his mind and participate in the Spirit Road Trial.

Wang Wei suddenly asked Wang Ju: "What do you think the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty would do if they heard a rumor that there was a complete version of the [Ancient Desolate Bodyrefining Scripture] in the Spirit Road Trial, and that our Dao Opening Sect was sending me personally to retrieved it?"

Wang Ju was a little surprised by the sudden question, thought about it for a few seconds and answered: "The [Ancient Desolate Bodyrefining Scripture] was created by a Great Emperor of our Dao Opening Sect who also had the Heavy Axe Physique. You could say this scripture fits perfectly with the Heavy Axe Physique. If the higher ups of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty had the opportunity to acquire it, they would go to great lengths to do so. Even if it was just a rumor, they will still try to discover if it was true."

Wang Wei nodded in acquiescence.

However, Wang Ju continued: "But, Young Master, what is the point of doing this? Do you want to take the chance to kill Ji Song during the Spirit Road Trial?"

Wang Wei looked at her and said: "Do not be silly Wang Ju. You should know although the Spirit Road Trial claimed to be "fair" and without any outside influence, the truth of the matter is that every Heaven Chosen raised by powerful groups like our sect have secret techniques implanted on them that would save their lives if they ever faced true mortal danger. It will be nigh impossible to kill Ji Song during the trial."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ju nodded in agreement. Then she thought of something and asked in shock: "Young Master, do you want to do the same thing you did to Han Li to Crown Prince Ji Song?"

Wang Wei responded positively: "Yes. The top 3 physiques are actually quite special in nature compared to the others. If I had enough knowledge about them, then when I execute the plan to acquire my own Special Physique, not only would my chances increase exponentially, but there is also a chance to acquire a physique that is on par with the Top 3."

Wang Ju nodded while listening, then she answered: "To pull up a plan of this magnitude, Young Master, you should probably enlist the help of the Sect Master and the Great Elders."

Wang Wei agreed with Wang Ju's caution. He knew that this plan is quite feasible and the Elders will be more than happy to help him.

However, the Spirit Road is still four years away, and there are other things to be done before then.
