As soon as Wang Wei returned home, he teleported to the secret realm where the Ancestors waited for him.
"What's the situation? Do we have more information?"
"So far, we only know someone attacked our business stalls in the Commerce. More than a hundred disciples there died," said Origin One, trying to control his fury. They always bully people; when did they ever suffer such an injustice?
Many disciples of the sect die every year for various reasons. But as long they were not bullied by cultivators using higher realms or the disciple sought death themselves, the sect would not interfere. However, they will never allow any factions to bully or wrong their disciples.
However, this attack was a blatant provocation.
"Have we settled the compensation for these disciples' death?" asked Wang Wei, also controlling his emotions since he knew this was not the time to be irate.
"Yes." The sect has requirements for the disciples who dies in the line of duty for the sect.
"Do we have any proof who did it?"
"Who else could it be besides the Spirit Genesis Sect?" said Sword One with a sneer.
"We still need some proof. Some people might be trying to blame them," added Wang Wei, who also felt it was them; the situation is similar to how they operate in the shadow.
"Miscellaneous just did a divination and found absolutely nothing," adding Origin One, Wang Wei immediately understood what he meant. The divination would have detected even a hint if another faction tried to frame the Spirit Genesis Sect.
But they found nothing. Only the Spirit Genesis Sect has a way to perfectly hide from the Yin-Yang Calculation of Miscellaneous. Sometimes, appearing too clean is also suspicious.
"What did the Commerce Hub's President say?"
The Commerce Hub had a president who wielded tremendous political power and controlled extensive resources. Many top Emperor Lineages control the Hub, and the group with the most powerful Emperor will be in control in every generation.
And if no one in that large group produced an Emperor in the generation, they'll compete with each other to decide. Many people sought after the president's post–including the Dao Opening Sect. Unfortunately, they've just joined, and according to the rules, they must wait for at least ten generations before becoming eligible to acquire the president's post.
Of course, Wang Wei will not wait for ten generations; he's prepared to take the whole thing by force and expand it beyond its limit of a few hundred World Communities.
"He apologized to us and promised a ten-fold reimbursement, support to integrate better, and reduce our wait time to five generations," said Origin One.
"What did he say about the Spirit Genesis Sect?" asked Wang Wei.
"He said there is nothing he can do since there is no proof," added Sword One. The official event or explanation was that one customer was unhappy with one of the sect's products and went on a rampage.
The customer had a weird talisman that could delay the entire detecting system of the Commerce Hub. What's weird is that even the customer's identity could not be found.
"He's a businessman," commented Wang Wei. "And offending the Spirit Genesis Sect for such a simple thing is not worth the price."
"But it is to us," said Turtle Shell, "So, are we going start an Emperor Dao War or not?"
"They have an Immortal Sovereign, and we have Sword One. Plus, we definitely have a chance as long as Desolate One succeeds," argued Hell One.
"Things are not that simple," countered The Steward. "Recasting the foundation is not easy, and it will take time, even with Time Formation."
Emperor Qiyuan's Origin Dao involved time, so he left a Time Acceleration Formation usable by Immortals and a few secret realms. However, he did not minor Array Dao, so there are limits to the formation and secret realms. Miscellaneous improved upon it later, but it was still limited.
"Plus, we don't know if they have a second Immortal Sovereign."
"Sect master, what is your decision?" asked Origin One.
"We can't go to war, but we also can't swallow this breath," said Wang Wei with sinister light in his eyes.
"Do you want to attack their shop?"
"That would be pointless since they would watch out for this," Origin One shook his head.
"I have a plan, and I need you guys to use whatever means you have to ensure I won't be discovered."
"Leave it to us," said Origin One, and the crew began. Origin One gathered the abilities left by Emperor Qiyuan and hid Wang Wei's origin. Miscellaneous One used Yin-Yang, invisibility, and darkness to bless Wang Wei with another form of protection.
Turtle One gave him a special defensive shield that blocked tracking, calculation, and divination. Hell One hid his soul and aura. Shadow One and Two used shadow to further enhanced his hiding capabilities. Rainbow One gave him a speed blessing to run away swiftly in case he's detected. Finally, Sword One used her power to elevate all these blessings and techniques to another level.
Wang Wei felt these guys may have gone a little overboard. However, in this situation, too much caution is not a thing. After finishing all the preparations, he started.
He used his Spirit Flower Ability: Soul Network. Without wasting much time, he landed in the Battle Spirit World, accessing trillions upon trillions of souls.
"Come in, said Patriarch Jia as the group watched an ordinary Elder walking in. "What is it?" fгeewebnovёl.com
"An emergency talisman came in."
The four immediately had a bad premonition.
"What is it?!" asked Patriarch He.
"We just received news someone blew themselves up in one of our Pill Shops, killing all our disciples and ruining countless resources."
"What?!"
"Is the news true?" asked the Disciplinary Head.
The elder opened his mouth to respond before suddenly stopping. He took out another talisman, and his face suddenly turned ugly. Then, more talismans began to light up.
"What is it?" asked He Shiyi, trying to remain calm.
"Most of the profession shops suffered a similar attack: a customer suddenly blew themselves up," said the elder.
"What is the damage?"
"More than 2000 public shops were attacked, and more than 1800 succeeded."
He Shiyi and the patriarchs' faces turned ugly as they already understood this was the Dao Opening Sect's revenge. Although only a small part of their publicly known shops was attacked, it will still cause them a lot of resources and lives.
Before they could process and analyze the situation, another elder rushed into the room.
"Sect master, sect master, bad news. One of the ore veins was attacked. One of the minors revolted and blew herself up."
"Impossible," said Patriarch Jia. "How did they infiltrate our world without even noticing?"
Such a coordinated attack requires a powerful force with well-trained dead soldiers. And the minor in the sect's vein would be a spy. But they could not fathom how the Dao Opening Sect–who had isolated themselves from the Endless Void–could have cultivated such a force under their nose.
Furthermore, the news did not stop coming.
