Chapter 383: Experimen

Since her apprentice did not want to, the Sacred Son did not seem interested, Tang Zichen did not force things. After all, in some ways, her apprentice was correct. Plus, her action will not affect the relationship between the two sects.

A few days passed, and Wang Wei walked out of the Scripture Storage Hall; he knew that it was about time for him to leave. While walking to his residence, he heard a commotion where a large group of disciples was gathered.

He saw that the disciples were not happy based on their facial features, meanwhile, Gu An–who was in front of them–also looked upset. At the same time, a young man who had a cocky look on his face was confronting the group.

Immediately, he realized the identity of that person.

Xiao Songxi: Rank 30th in the Academy's Heaven Chosen Tournament. He is from a Supreme Level Dynasty, however, there are rumors that his real father–who abandoned his mother after birth–is from an Emperor Lineage of the Sea Race. However, the rumors have yet to be confirmed.

Wang Wei watched their confrontation from afar and soon got a gist of the situation. Xiao Songxi wanted Gu An to become his wife, however, she rejected him.

Nevertheless, he was a persistent guy, so he used a flamboyant method to attract her attention: challenging her, defeating her, and suppressing her. He probably believed that as long as he displayed his might and domineering personality, she would change her mind

Unfortunately for him, although he is way more powerful than her, this is the site of the Eternal Dream Sect. As the Saintess, she is the person who can control the greatest number of Dream Force amount the disciples and even eclipsed some elders in that area.

As such, he was defeated. No, to be precise, he was slapped to death. Luckily, Xiao Songxi's name is on the Heavenly Dao Protection Book as one of the Top 30 of the tournament, so he cannot die.

Using this fact, he has been challenging Gu An almost every day; he's essentially using his immortality to pester her.

After knowing the situation, Wang Wei gave this group a last glance before leaving back to his residence. Unlike Gu An, he was a politically minded person and could see things in different ways.

The Heaven Chosens in the Book who have lower status have been using their Immortality to cause trouble everywhere. Even in the Dao Opening Sect, a few people came to challenge and Li Jun had to take care of it.

This has been a very common thing in the Myriad Emperor World for countless generations. Nevertheless, although these people are impossible to kill, there are still ways to deal with them.

Threaten the people behind them to make them behave. So, as long as the Eternal Dream Sect talked to the Supreme Dynasty behind Xiao Songxi, the latter should have stopped.

Yet, this is not the case. This can only mean three things: one, the Great Ye Dynasty has someone secretly supporting them so they are not afraid of the Eternal Dream Sect's warning.

The other is that Xiao Songxi is trying to use the hand of the sect to deal with the Great Ye Dynasty. From what Wang Wei knew, the latter's relationship with his father, the current king, was not ideal.

Of course, there is also another possibility; sect master Tang Zichen is interested in Xiao Songxi's possible relation to the Sea Race and lets things unfold without intervening.

Wang Wei was interested in this Xiao Songxi for a few reasons but it was not ideal to meet him. So, later that night, he secretly sent a letter to him pretending to be Gu An to meet in a mountain range a few hundred thousand miles away.

Wang Wei stood in a plain with a bottle of wine in his hand as he drank and looked at the sky. He lowered his head to look at the person next to him and said:

"You don't seem surprised that it was not Gu An that invited you here?"

"She hates me very well, so how could she ask me to meet privately? Especially away from the sect where her strength is weaker than mine?" replied Xiao Songxi calmly.

Ever since he received the note, he knew that something was wrong. As for Wang Wei, he knew that this was a cunning guy. He was born in a Ruler family, where kinship was as thin as any pieces of paper.

On top of all that, his father and siblings hated him with passion. He and his mother were ostracized both from the family and from the political landscape.

Xiao Songxi managed to survive and even gained some power in the Great Ye Dynasty. Obviously, this was a cunning, intelligent, and ambitious person.

"Anyway, you're here and that's all that matters."

"So, for what reason has Sacred Son called me here?" asked Xiao Songxi with a solemn face. The only reason he came here with confidence is that he was not afraid of death.

Nevertheless, he was not like those other brainless other Heaven Chosens who used their immortality recklessly. After all, this pseudo-immortality only lasted until the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Amongst the 30 people who have it, once the first person entered the Primordial Spirit Realm, then a count-down began for the others before it is removed.

According to records, if all 30 of them planned together to delay the time to enter the Primordial Spirit Realm, Heavenly Dao will still take it away after a certain amount of time.

"I'm very interested in testing your immortality," said Wang Wei as he put away his drink. Xiao Songxi squinted his eyes after hearing this. However, immediately afterward, a fighting intent appeared in his eyes.

He watched the final battle between Wang Wei and Ji Song. At that time, he knew the vast difference between him and the top 10. After that fight, he was momentarily lost thinking about the strength of these people, not to mention all the other geniuses that did not participate in the trial and were secretly hiding for the opportune moment before showing up.

At some point, he even wanted to give up on the Emperor Path and just be content with ruling over the Great Ye Dynasty. However, thinking about his hatred for that man and what he did to him and his mother, his spirit was once reignited.

After all, if he wants revenge, if he wants to drag that man in front of his mother to apologize, having the strength to defeat him was not enough; he had to have the strength to suppress the people behind him.

Xiao Songxi took a fighting pose as he prepared for battle; he wanted to see if had closed the gap to these Top 10 Heaven Chosens in the past few hundred years.

Wang Wei just smiled casually. Then, before the latter could even respond, he instantly appeared in front of him as if teleporting. He grabbed his face with one hand and flew to the sky with unmatched speed.

He flew so fast that he was like a comet entering the atmosphere of a planet. The friction created by his rapid speed began to burn Xiao Songxi's body into ashes.

By the time Wang Wei reached about a million meters into the sky, Xiao Songxi's fleshly body was burned into ashes, leaving a few burned skin in his hand. After clenching his fist, those were turned into nothingness as well.

He looked at the millions of particles that were gathering not far from him. A few seconds later, a completely intact Xiao Songxi appeared in front of him, albeit with a very confused look on his face.

Xiao Songxi was genuinely confused; he was just preparing for battle, he just blink or so he thought he did when a strong force grabbed him by the face and dragged him to the sky.

And before he could even react or understand what was going on, he was burned to ashes.

Wang Wei did not care about the latter's confusion. He pointed his finger at him and jabbed forward.

This time, Xiao Songxi immediately reacted. A vision suddenly appeared behind him, showing a humongous serpent that was swallowing the entire world.

Although he did not like to use the power of that man's bloodline, Xiao Songxi was not a pedantic person so he knew when and when not to be stubborn.

With the vision, plus his second layer of the Heaven Stage in the Divine Body Stage, he could now use the power of Heaven and Earth to increase his strength by 27-fold.

With this, he was confident to block this item and even have enough time to counterattack. Unfortunately, he was wrong.

A more mighty power of Heaven and Earth easily destroyed his defense, then, another powerful spiritual power went straight to his soul, annihilating it.

Then, Wang Wei watched Xiao Songxi's soul recover as if nothing happened. He wondered whether Heavenly Dao saved his soul from completely being annihilated, or created one with the exact memory or strength as Xiao Songxi.

If it was the latter, that would be fine. But if it was the former, things would be complicated. His father and grandfather once placed their name on the book. And some point, they must use this advantage to their benefit by dying.

If their current soul is nothing but a copy made by Heavenly Dao with the same memories, that would be bad. That would mean that Heavenly Dao was planning something nefarious with this book.

However, after thinking about it for a while, it was unlikely. For once, Emperor Kong should have considered this fact when making the book. Additionally, many Emperors have placed their names on that book and they were fine.

Even if the ones who placed their names had problems, the ones who did not would still discover something or suspect something. So, Wang Wei removed these thoughts from his head and focused on his experiment on Xiao Songxi.
