"We can feed the Dao Burial Ground more Ascending Treasure Qi until it becomes a top Supreme Innate Treasure," Wang Wei commented. There are only a few ways to elevate the rank of Innate Treasures; the most common is to have someone of a higher cultivation nourish it.

In the case of a Chaos Treasure, someone of Rank 11 would need to nourish it before it evolved into a Supreme Innate Treasure. Empyreans and Dao Rulers need to use the pure Grand Dao Source nourishment, but the most effective baptism is from an Earth Primarch.

"However, if we want it to evolve to the next level, we need a unique rank 12 Qi."

Wang Qi smiled wryly. "Sect master, where in Heaven will we find something like this? Instead of doing something so pointless, we might as well search for a Supreme Chaos Treasure. Although the Dao Burial Ground's primary attribute is hiding, making it perfect for a Subspace System, it may not be worth all the trouble."

Wang Wei shook his head. "You're limiting your thinking. We don't have to do everything as long as we have the right allies."

"The right allies? You mean the Celestial Race," Wang Qi stated, having figured out his sect master's intention. "Indeed, if a faction with such a unique Qi exists, it would be them. The issue is convincing them to part with such a heavy gift."

"Whether they give it or not can also be a test of how much they are willing to invest in our cause," Wang Wei added. "We need to know in advance whether their clan will stay in hiding and do the bare minimum to contribute to the end of this era or invest fully."

"What choice do you think they'll make?" Wang Qi asked.

"I cannot say for sure," Wang Wei replied as he looked in the distance. "Ending this era means returning to the Golden Age where the Thirteen Overlords reigned supreme. Some people are happy about this, while others want a new world order.

"From what I know, the Celestial Clan used to be an upper-lower member of the Myriad Clan Union — one of the [Thirteen Overlords]. Maybe they want to use this opportunity to climb the political ladder in their faction, or they simply want to return to the old times without much desire. We'll have to see."

Wang Qi sighed, feeling how inadequate he was at looking at the overall situation compared to his sect master.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll contact the Celestial Race only after settling our base and start expanding the Fate Shadow Guard," Wang Wei stated. "Now, tell me of the current situation."

"This is the information you want," Wang Qi said as he handed him a jade talisman. "As you ordered, I focus on establishing the base, gathering more members for the Guards, and maintaining our relationship with the Rebellion."

Wang Wei shifted through the information. "So, the new rising member was indeed Xiao Tiandi. It seems he's gotten his life together. Did my words get to him, or did something else happen? And Purple Chaos Emperor? Did he choose Chaos Dao? With his talent, it's fitting."

"He's an interesting character," Wang Qi commented. "Many people still talk about his so-called redemption even today."

"A disappointing genius that finally shows its brilliance is worthy of gossiping about — especially since his master has such fame," Wang Wei nodded. He frowned a few seconds later, "What about the news about the Fiendgod Blood or Dao Monarch Qianwu?"

"I didn't mention them in the briefing because I've only gathered unconfirmed and probably unreliable rumors," Wang Qi explained.

"What rumors?"

"The rumor is that two of the parasites had an altercation more than 10,000 Yuan Epoch ago over a Body Refining Inheritance. I tried to confirm the rumor, but some said it was between Five Feather and Undead Phoenix, while others said it was between Time Eater and Blood Dragon."

Wang Wei grunted. "What about the Tier 11 Fiendgod Blood?"

"This rumor has more substance," Wang Qi replied. "There is a chance that the treasury of the Divine Chu Dynasty has some in reserve."

"Them? It seems I may have to visit Shi Ruolan." Wang Wei remembered that kind and enthusiastic girl that can instantly change into an overbearing and domineering ruler during battle.

"Sect master, is this wise? After all, she is the Earth Emperor's daughter."

"If she has the slightest ambitions, she'll understand that her father is a blocking stone in her path," Wang Wei remarked. I only need to nudge her in the right direction, and she might turn on him." "That could work."

"Alright, let's leave," Wang Wei stated. He did not waste time and teleported everybody to the Dao Burial Ground. As soon as Wang Wei arrived, two people teleported before him, all on guard.

"I'm pleased with your response time," Wang Wei praised.

"Master!" The two guards immediately knelt on the floor. He was about to tell them to get up when he suddenly frowned. "Who's in charge of security?"

"That would be Yan Wingzhu, code name Bright Shadow," replied one of the guards.

"Summon her."

A petite woman dressed in black appeared a few seconds later, and she immediately knelt after seeing Wang Wei. "Master."

"You've disappointed me."

Bright Shadow's body trembled after hearing these words. There are two things that all guards fear and hate the most: mission failures — which are sometimes unavoidable — and the master's disappointment.

"Master, what did I do wrong?" she swiftly asked.

"Someone has infiltrated our base, and it's an Empyrean," Wang Wei stated calmly while looking in the distance. The base contained countless hidden dimensions that were mainly used for training. Bright Fate's face turned pale, and the situation worsened when Wang Wei's gaze shifted to all of them.

"You're also to blame for not discovering the intruder." The other already had sweat on their backs.

"We will accept punishment." The worst thing a Guard can do is make excuses for its failure.

"I'll forgive you this time since you're still adapting to how things operate in the upper dimension. However, there should not be a second time, understand?"

"We do."

"Good," Wang Wei nodded before pointing to the quiet Mask Clan members behind him. "These are the recruits I brought. They have a special talent, so try incorporating it into our system."

"Your will shall be done," replied Wen Deming, code name Fate Virtue, since he's in charge of training while Plum Fate runs all outside operations. In other words, they will serve under him once these people are appropriately trained.

As Wang Wei watched these people disperse, he secretly shook his head. He chose these three because of their abilities. He even spent years tracking Unique Insurgent Qi for them to ensure their strength would be helpful after ascending. Yet, this happened.

'I miss Wang Ju,' he thought. He desperately needed someone competent to lead his guard. 'Maybe that Red Elder Mask will prove to be what I need. Otherwise, I'll need to search for someone else.'

"Master, what should we do about the spy?" Wang Qi asked, his face also pale. Although this was not his job, he blamed himself for such an enormous blunder.

"I'll deal with him," Wang Wei said before disappearing. He entered the Source Qi Space with an ordinary-looking man bound by golden chains. The man looked at him fiercely; he did not expect for him to be discovered and captured so easily. Such overwhelming strength scared him, but his training allowed him to compose himself.

"You're very well trained," Wang Wei commented. "I'm guessing you won't say anything." The spy continued staring at him. "To cultivate an Empyrean as a Spy and even train him to immediately try to eliminate himself after being captured — I'm very curious about your master."

He entered this man's Sea of Consciousness to look at his soul. 'As expected, a potent restriction that leaves me useless.' He sighed as he glanced at the complex magic circle above the sky and this spy's soul.

"I guess we're doing this the old-fashioned way." He returned to the material world and looked this man in the eyes. "You should have trained to resist torture, but how high is your pain threshold?" The spy stared at him, and Wang Wei smiled. He activated his Pain Innate Talent and had this man experience the pain of his tribulation.

Not a second had passed before the man's shriek echoed in this infinite space full of pure energy. Wang Wei tuned out all the noise, focusing on preventing this man's spirit or psyche from collapsing while also not activating the restriction in his soul.

"Ready to talk?" Wang Wei asked, but all he received was that intense stare. "I forgot you're a tough guy. Well, this first session was only 10 seconds. Let's try to triple the time for the second one."

The spy's face turned deathly pale. He felt like he lived in a world of pain for an eternity before it stopped. Now, this devilish bastard told him only 10 seconds had passed.
