Chapter 935 Rise of Mortals (I)

"That's fine," nodded Wang Chang. As long as he can defeat Nine Suns, the last flaw on his Dao Heart will be fixed. Then, he can be reincarnated, hopefully with the same unparalleled talent as his son and grandson. Well, forget the anomaly that is his grandson, he will be satisfied with some of the talent of his son.

Afterward, he can sit on the throne and become a Heavenly Emperor, looking down on myriad worlds and races, bringing glory, luck, and destiny to the Dao Opening Sect.

By then, if everything goes correctly, he might even see his wife again. Although the chances were slim, they were better than nothing.

"By the way, do you have a way to find Nine Suns?" asked Wang Chang.

"Yes," nodded Wang Wei. "His sons made a deal with me to protect him. In return, he sold his father's information to me. Through their bloodline, I can help you find him in the upper dimension."

"I guess I should not be surprised Emperor Nine Suns would side with these parasites," sneered Wang Tian.

Wang Wei disagreed with his father's words. He did not know Nine Suns' exact circumstances, whether he was forced, was only externally on their side while secretly plotting against them, or was truly a villain who feared for his life.

He would not villainize the man because of what happened in his grandfather's generation. Simultaneously, he also won't have any sympathy. His grandfather needs to defeat him, maybe even kill him, to heal his Dao Heart, so Nine Suns have to either suffer or die.

"Let's not talk about this," said Wang Chang, and everybody agreed to change the subject.

"Wei'er, now that you left your seclusion, does that mean it's time for me to move to my family?" asked Yu Yan with worry in her eyes.

"Now is indeed the perfect time," uttered Wang Wei. He had opened the wisdom of all mortals in this plane, so it was indeed time to prepare for his mother's Proving Dao Method.

"However, there is no need to hurry. Let's wait until after Li Jun and Yan Liling become Emperor." Although it was the perfect time, he did not want to separate his family so soon.

"Won't that affect the plan?"

"Don't worry about it," reassured Wang Wei. "We might even use them to prove the Dao in the deception method."

"That's fine, then," nodded Yu Yan. Wang Wei spent the rest of the day with his family. The next day, he had two things on his schedule–the first one was having a talk with Ancestor Wucheng. However, the latter would take a few dozen years before exiting his retreat, so Wang Wei focused on the second task.

He did not leave the sect but sent an invisible projection to travel through the central continent. His first destination was the Emperor Enlightening Academy's Domain; he wanted to check the development of their mortal civilization.contemporary romance

Seven hundred years passed since the second court meeting, leaving three hundred years until the third. Such a long time was more than enough to build a decent Spiritual Rune Civilization, especially since they were copying the Dao Opening Sect's model.

As soon as Wang Wei arrived at this place called Black Stripe City, he felt a strange incongruity. He saw many modern concepts in the form of constructs, like cars, airplanes, trains, and buses. He even saw people with flying carriages, changing the setting from modern-day to futuristic.

However, according to his modern Earth cognition, everyone dressed in ancient clothes had long hair and spoke like ancient people. 

'It's like ancient people suddenly developed futuristic technology, but these technologies also looked ancient,' thought Wang Wei, secretly shaking his head.

Wang Wei continued walking and noticed everyone had one thing in common–a bracelet on their wrists. He watched a young man across the street tap his hand on the bracelet, and a holographic screen appeared before him.

He seemed to have read something, and a smile manifested on his somewhat handsome face. Then, he began to press on the screen before it disappeared.

Wang Wei looked at another person who was talking to the screen before them. Oddly, no sounds came from their mouths; even the person standing next to them could hear what they were saying.

'Did they make improvements to the Communication Talismans? Not bad,' commented Wang Wei before walking away. He walked around this city and noticed many libraries.

'Excellent,' he thought. In the past, knowledge only belonged to noble mortals as a way to control the lower class. Now, knowledge was accessible to everyone.

He continued walking, and he heard many people talking excitedly on his way.

"Did you hear?"

"What is it?"

"A cultivator will give a lecture in the Academy on Spiritual Runes."

"Why are you so excited? Wasn't there one last month?"

"Yes," said a third person in this group of three. "I heard the Emperor Enlightening Academy is trying to catch up to the Dao Opening Sect's region. So, many cultivators have given lectures in the past hundred years, trying to accelerate the growth of our civilization."

"You guys don't understand," said the first person who spoke. "According to my sources, the person who will give the lecture is a Quasi-Emperor and an alchemist."

After hearing the word [Quasi-Emperor], the other two showed a look of envy, longing, and fear. In this current Age of Information, everybody knows the existence of cultivators and how powerful they are. As such, they understand the capability of such a powerhouse.

"An alchemist? Such a cultivator should deeply understand Divine Runes, so their explanation of Spiritual Runes should be very profound."

The three of them were Extraordinary Citizens who could tap into the potential of their Spiritual Power. As such, they enrolled in school at a young age to learn about Spiritual Runes in the hope of developing their civilization.

"That's why I'm so excited."

"No matter what, we must attend this lecture–even if we have to buy a seat in the black market."

"True," nodded one of them before a look of worry took over his facial expression. "I hope another northern barbarian will not affect the lecture like last month."

The faces of the other changes, "We're in public, so don't say these words."

The group looked around to see if anyone heard them, and then they rushed to their destination. Wang Wei calmly watched this with a smile. Then, he continued his tour.

He first went to see a Recorded Story. He chose a romance story. He could see through such a low-level illusion with his power, but he shut down his mind and enjoyed the movie.

However, Wang Wei regretted his action. The movie was a tragedy where the main character lost the love of his life, deciding to live the rest of his life alone in the mountains.

The movie reminded him of Wu Hong. After all, he also saw a movie the last time they met. As such, he was depressed after exiting the cinema.

"Terrible movie, I will give it a bad review."

The pettiness in him activated to the max. So, he went to the best publisher in this city and secretly influenced the head editor to write a terrible review of the movie in the next newspaper release.

"That's better," muttered Wang Wei, his mood drastically improved. He did not care about the commotion it would create if the mighty Heavenly Emperor were seen as so petty or the consequences that would befall the creators of that movie had the world known the Heavenly Emperor did not like their story.

After venting his negative emotion, Wang Wei continued his tour. He visited a temple nearby. At the center of the temple were five statues, and he recognized the main one–Xu Shi.

Countless people entered the temple and offered their worship, asking for blessings. The majority of them asked for their offspring to be born as Extraordinary Citizens.

'They were smart enough to leave my share,' thought Wang Wei. The temple did not have his statue, but there were plenty of mentions of him and the court. As such, plenty of mortals prayed to him instead of Xu Shi and the other Gods from the Academy.

Moreover, he could tell he was the most popular God in the world. Most mortals are not really religious, but they respect the Gods because of their strength and presence. So, when they pray or think of any God, the first that comes to mind is the most powerful one–the Heavenly Emperor.

'Let's check other regions,' thought Wang Wei before heading to the Transmission Gate for mortals. He created an identity before buying a ticket to travel to another domain.

'The price is too expensive.'

In his sect's domain, mortals do not have to pay so much to use the Sub-Space. However, it's understandable. After all, the Dao Opening Sect has been developing their mortal civilization for more than 300,000 years, and they have reached the limit. 

These factions are doing nothing but catch up and have only been developed for seven hundred years. It's not hard to understand why they are still way behind.
