Chapter 1255 The Frontier\'s Situation
She did not want her disciple to revert to his former self because of this small inconvenience, so Xun Junyao chose to give false hope. Technically speaking, it was not false hope since she did not know the exact requirements for the trial. For all she knew, it appeared when someone of great destiny required it or during a time of chaos and strife—just like the current era.
"Destiny?" Xiao Tiandi muttered as an idea flashed in his mind. "Could we summon it?"
"That\'s an idea, but how would we go about that?"
"You remember your history lesson of the Second Origin War?" Xiao Tiandi stated. "You said that Paragon Qiyuan started a war to gather a tremendous amount of luck and destiny to summon the Ultimate Taboo. Couldn\'t we use his method to summon this trial?"
"That might work," Xun Junyao nodded. "However, the destiny…"
"I know mine alone is not enough, but we can contact Empyrean Kong and many other talented individuals," Xiao Tiandi persuaded. "I\'m sure many of the people in the same generation as ... .Well, my point is that many people would not pass off such an opportunity in this current climate."
Xun Junyao noticed how odd he behaved regarding this so-called friend, but she did not pry. They were very close; if her disciple did not tell him, he must have his reasons.
"That\'s one part of the problem," Xun Junyao sighed. "How would we get such an important thing from the Dao Opening Sect? I can ask them, but I doubt they will give me face regarding this matter."
"We don\'t need the complete method. No, we don\'t even need to be the ones to summon the trial," Xiao Tiandi persuaded. "I\'m sure the Dao Opening Sect would benefit from such an event. In other words, we only need to persuade them."
Xiao Tiandi was confident in this plan because the Dao Opening Sect had a high chance of agreeing because of Wang Wei. Although he would prefer for that bastard not to enjoy such benefit, he knew it was impossible not to include. Regardless, the trial should somewhat reduce the gap between them — especially since he can achieve a third awakening after becoming an Empyrean.
"It seems you\'ve thought of everything," Xun Junyao said with a smile. Luckily, she hid her face, or the entire room would be illuminated. However, despite this protection, Xiao Tiandi already thought of a hundred poems describing the fleeting smile.
"Excellent. I\'ll contact them immediately," Xun Junyao said. Such a trial could also benefit her. "No, inviting them to my celebration and asking in person would be better. If so, I can\'t send just anyone to give the invitation."
"I\'ll go."
"Yes, you\'re my direct disciple, and what better person to represent me," Xun Junyao nodded. "Go right now. No, change into something more presentable. You should also bring gifts."
"No problem," Xiao Tiandi stated. "By the way, is the trial also useful for Paragons?"
"No. You must leave after becoming a Paragon."
"That\'s good to hear," Xiao Tiandi sighed. If those people could also use the trial, the current situation would worsen to a terrifying level. He walked out of the room, heading to his quarters to change.
"Wait," Xun Junyao yelled. "What about the thing I ask you to fetch?"
"Oh, I almost forgot," Xiao Tiandi replied. He did not turn around but threw a space ring over his head, which landed perfectly on Xun Junyao\'s hands.
"Rude," she complained. "Nothing went wrong?"
"Nope, everything was fine."
…
Eternal Ascension World, Primordial Chaos:
A blood-red dragon fought a cultivator with a flying sword. The dragon had countless blood marks on its body; his scales were destroyed or slashed in different parts of his body. From their auras, the swordsman was obviously more powerful than the dragon. However, the supposed divine creature had its power boosted by a potent array.
The swordsman tried to remove the array, which was the source of his opponent\'s strength. However, he had to give up this foolish thought as he realized he would have to destroy the Eternal Ascension World to remove the array. Sadly, he did not have such power, so he could grit his teeth and curse whoever created such a brilliant formation.
The swordsman suddenly sensed people rushing toward him. He knew this raid had failed, and if he stayed here, he would probably be exiled to some dangerous area of the Source Qi Space or lost in time through the River of Time.
He took one last look at the dragon before flying away. This was far from over. The Chaos Universe was about to experience another turmoil similar to the [Second War Origin], and the Eternal Ascension World might be the key to knowing what will happen. Better yet, they might be the key to ensuring maximum benefit.
The top powers have yet to show up, only observing in the shadows and using people like this swordsman as pawns. However, sooner or later, they will be tired of observing and taking action.
The dragon waited until he could not sense anything before turning into a tall, muscular man about 2.8 meters in height, with two red dragon horns and a loose robe showing his upper body.
\'When will this end,\' Blood Dragon complained. As he was about to turn around, he suddenly felt a terrifying pain in his chest. \'Why now of all time?\' he thought. However, despite the intense pain, his complexion did not change. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
\'Blood Dragon, what are you doing? Are you injured?\' asked a beautiful voice.
\'I\'m fine.\'
\'Is that so? Well, we\'re having a meeting.\'
\'I\'ll be right there,\' Blood Dragon. He secretly teleported a few pills from his pocket dimension directly into his stomach, and a few seconds later, he could move. He flew into a pavilion floating right outside the Eternal Ascension World, which resembled a colossal egg from the point of view of Primordial Chaos.
Everyone was at the meeting, sitting on thrones around a circular table. Well, everyone except for the Disaster Paragon and the Twin Flower Monk.
"This can\'t go on like this," Time Eater immediately stated after everyone arrived and took a seat at their position. "Someone must be chosen to return home and cultivate a few Paragons to aid us."
"We\'ve had this conversation countless times, so why waste time?" Five-Feather asked. "Everyone wants to be the one to return, so how do we decide?"
"I\'m putting my foot down this time," Time Eater announced. "I\'ll be the one to return, and I won\'t take no for an answer." He released his aura, suppressing all the others in the room.
"Watch your tongue," warned Seven Cauldron. "If anyone here should return, it\'s rightfully me."
"Unfortunately for you, I no longer care about your special identity," Time Eater replied, even releasing a slight killing intent.
"You!"
"Do it, and I\'ll burn everything down," Undead Phoenix said. "I\'ll either open the formation and allow these people entry or run away and sell all your information."
"You wouldn\'t dare," Time Eater growled.
"Try me," Undead Phoenix replied before looking at Five Feather. "I might even find someone willing to kill this bitch for me."
"Bold words," Five Feather replied, releasing her own killing intent.
"Can we even return?" the Earth Emperor asked calmly. "Their orders were to protect the world at all costs. Would they consider our return an act of treason?"
The room was momentarily quiet until Time Eater spoke. "We\'re only doing so to better accomplish our given task."
"Will they care?" the Earth Emperor rebutted; his words again plunged the room into silence.
"Let\'s not talk about such pointless speculation," Earth Emperor continued. "How about we summon people here instead of fetching them? They can become a Paragon here, and the problem will be solved."
"As long as we each get to pick someone, I\'m fine with this idea," Five Feather added, and soon, everyone agreed.
"You make it sound simple, but have you considered the implications?" Time Eater sneered at these idiots. "We can hide these people for the most part, but what about when they have to undergo the Immemorial Tribulation?" He pointed outside.
"Do you think these people are stupid? They won\'t guess what we\'re trying to do and stop us."
"You\'re right, but this is the best compromise we can come up with," the Earth Emperor replied. "We can deal with these people\'s reactions when the time comes. At worst, we will send our people to the Source Qi Space to pass the tribulation."
Time Eater looked at the Earth Emperor in the eyes, and the latter did not lunch. Shu Ren did not know why Time Eater desperately wanted to return home but knew he needed to stop it at all costs.
"Fine. Let\'s discuss how many people to summon and how to choose." This discussion did not last long as everybody agreed on one person, and it had to be someone they trusted or could easily control. Once the decision was made, everyone scattered to their rooms for the summon. Meanwhile, the quiet Blood Dragon had a glint in his eyes as he calmly returned to his quarters.
