Chapter 1310 Heaven and Earth Wonders

Things weren't adding up. Unless Emperor Kong had found a few unparalleled geniuses compared to Wang Wei and had access to merit and numerous other resources that speed up cultivation, there is no way for him to have trained a few Empyreans for the academy — especially given how young it was. All the teachers with this cultivation level should have been people he recruited.

Wang Wei remembered Emperor Kong's life from the sect's record. After ascending, he found a secret realm that allowed him to become an Empyrean in record time. Such an event brought him some fame, but for the most part, Emperor Kong was inconspicuous.

After all, he was a loose cultivator with no background. Many factions invited him to join him, but he refused and disappeared from the world. It was not until about 300,000 Yuan Epochs ago that he appeared before the world and caused another sensation. All seven moons and two suns supported him in re-opening the Academies and training talents for them.

The reaction to the news varied. Most former academies hated him, while others thought he did an excellent job. After all, their role in this world is to teach, and in the current environment, Emperor Kong's existence has brought some hope to many sentient beings. The people from the lower dimension considered him a traitor for working with these people, while others gave him the benefit of the doubt. A few people realized he was not a simple man.

'It is possible to train an Empyrean in 300,000 Yuan Epoch, but only if a top Paragon Lineage poured their resources and cultivated someone without hesitation. Kong does not have this ability purely from a resources standpoint,' Wang Wei analyzed. 'Another possibility is he cultivated these talents during his disappearance after becoming an Empyrean, but Bai Han's story showed these talents showed up during the Academy's existence. Moreover, he should have been cultivating himself and planning for his reappearance; where would he have time to train other talents? Where would he have the resources to spare to cultivate other Empyreans?

'The only explanation is Time Artifact, but is it that good?'

Heaven and Earth are fair. The Emperor Path and Dao Path skipped countless steps by using the Heaven Will to gain access directly to the Grand Dao Source, so there must be a way to balance them. Grand Dao makes it extremely challenging and time consuming to understand the Dao Laws and restricts the effectiveness of Time Formation.

'By my calculations, Emperor Kong's Time Artifact would be better than one created by a peak Paragon of Time Dao. When he used it, the effect was even better than the ones created by a Primal Paragon.'

Wang Wei was suddenly caught in an inspiration.

Wang Wei sighed while controlling his greed. Wonders are attractive, but they also have limitations, and sadly, those limitations are on the number of uses. Most will disappear after only one time, while some will allow multiple users. However, once the usage passes the limit, the wonder will either disappear or the effect of breaking the limit will be gone. What's left is still on par with peak artifacts created by the most potent Paragons and Heavenly Primarch. However, it's not the same as the former wonder.

'A lot of things make sense now,' Wang Wei thought. 'But I wonder how he kept that thing for himself?'

Although Emperor Kong's artifact had lost its status as a Wonder of Heaven and Earth, it was still precious, meaning these greedy moons would have never left it to him.

"Do you want to continue?" Bai Han asked calmly. He had figured out that he had panicked for no reason. Their academy never hid the Empyreans they cultivated, and there were many wise people in the world, so couldn't they have figured out their secrets? Yet, his father was able to keep that treasure. Although Bai Han did not know how he did it, the fact he never tried to hide it is proof of his father's confidence. As such, it did not matter whether he accidentally revealed the news to Wang Wei. The truth is it was only a matter of time before he discovered this truth — just like everyone else; in fact, he was just catching up.

The two continued this tour, but Bai Han was mainly quiet, fearing he would reveal too much. Although he woke up from the previous shock, this incident reminded him of the time Wang Wei played with him in the lower dimension, causing him to lose his position as Headmaster. Although he knew he had lost so miserably because of the Qi of Calamity, Bai Han also understood that he would not fare any better even without it. He learned from Xu Shi what Wang Wei had done in the lower dimension and understood how scary it is to confront such a monster.

Bai Han flew slightly faster than before, so the two soon arrived at their destination: a beautiful white palace with a unique Dao Rhyme associated with scholars of the Literary Way. With a glance, Wang Wei could tell this was not an actual palace but a physical manifestation of the world it contained. Once they were before the palace, a formation was activated to scan their bodies. Then, a spatial fluctuation enveloped them, transporting them inside. Wang Wei looked at the vast world before him, taking a glance at everything.

"Welcome to the central area," Bai Han said.

Wang Wei raised his hand to manipulate something in the air to condense a golden light. "Righteous Qi? No, it's not as simple as that. You used an array to transform the Dao Qi between Heaven and Earth into the purest form of Righteous Qi, boosting its effect on cultivation by at least 200%."

"It's my father's work. He's very proud of it," Bai Han replied after several considerations.

"He should, especially if this formation can be used with the same effect using third-grand Dao Sources," Wang Wei nodded. Third-Grande Sources are used by Paragons, meaning every single one contains the best quality of Dao Qi. If this formation could still provide a 200% boost or even a 10% boost, it would still be extremely impressive and valuable.

"That, I don't know about," Bai Han said, telling the truth. His father never told him anything about Paragons or things of that level.
