Wang Wei and Di Tian's power reveal had far more consequences than the two could imagine, affecting every faction, race, and religion of the entire Myriad Emperor World.
The Sea Race had a meeting with the top lineage. During this generation, the Dao Opening Sect began to intervene in the resources in the sea. And if their sect master proves the Dao in this generation, the situation will definitely worsen.
So, they had a meeting to see if they had countermeasures. In the end, they used their final trump card–a sealed Immortal Sovereign. However, despite this decision, they were worried because of the potential displayed by Wang Wei in this battle.
The Yin Moon Palace was quiet as they regretted how their Heaven Chosen–Su Yan–ended. If she remained in this generation, there would be a chance to also shine on the battlefield.
Additionally, they also worried about Su Ya's future. They don't know she will react in the future after learning of this news. With her talent and destiny from this Glorious Generation, breaking the boundary between Mortal and Immortal should not be a problem. They would lose tremendously if such news affected her Dao Heart.
The Loose Immortal Alliance was more worried about the changes to the environment Wang Wei talked about with Huo Fenghuang. Such drastic changes to the environment will lead to a redistribution of resources.
And if they do not do something, the Emperor Lineages, Emperor Clans, and Emperor Races will occupy all the resources, leaving only grumps for the loose cultivators. So, they began planning how to get a piece of the cake in the future distribution.
The Origin Weapon Mountain discussed the possibility of getting Chen Chen back. After all, he is a top Heaven Chosen that performed brilliantly in this generation. Although his appearance and personality change after using a forbidden technique, the mountain still has many ways to help him. Furthermore, as long as Chen Chen proves the Dao, he can fix his problem.
Sadly, with the talent Wang Wei displayed and the strength of the Dao Opening Sect, they knew this was very unlikely to get him back. Regardless, they were willing to try.
The Great Talisman City was discussing Tong Ruobing's current predicament. They feared either of the final winners would blame her for allying with these "traitors."
Although Tong Ruobing now has plausible deniability with her betrayal and capture of Yu Zhou, this would change nothing if these two future Eternal Supremes chose to blame her.
As such, they prepared to use Yu Zhou as a bargaining chip. Then, they also tried to contact the Star Beast World to learn whether Mu Lei proved the Dao and became an Eternal Emperor. With his support, things might proceed smoother.
The Origin Rune Palace had mix reaction. Wu Ming's faction or his family cheered as their patriarch allied and had an agreement with someone with such potential. Meanwhile, the other factions feared Wu Ming's rise in this generation; they did not want to lose their power and resources, but it appeared they might not have a chance.
Lou Cheng, this generation sect master of the Origin Pill Dao Sect, intensified his fear toward Wang Wei after seeing the latter's strength. If not for his wife's comfort, he might have developed Heart Demon. Simultaneously, he also began to relent on his headstrong opinion of not involving Wang Wei with the Proving Dao Pill.
Meanwhile, his master–Ye Lao–was rejoicing in his decision to secretly ally with the Dao Opening Sect. He previously had reservations about dealing with such a powerful sect, so he kept their alliance a secret. But now, he began to discuss with the elders to intensify the alliance and make it public.
The Heaven Mystery Pavillion lived in fear as they offended Wang Wei by giving his information to Di Tian, making him suffer. Although they removed their animosity during the Supreme Outlaw Trial, their action only allowed them to have a neutral relationship with Wang Wei and the Dao Opening Sect.
As such, they did not know how the latter would react, whether he would still hold a grudge. The pavilion is only an Immortal Lineage and cannot afford the tossing of these big wits.
The Soul Race immediately declared to the world that Yu Zhou was a traitor to their race and had been kicked out. They had no relationship with him and severed ties with him long ago. Then, they closed their race and chose not to appear for a few generations.
Although they knew this approach would be useless if Wang Wei or Di Tian wished to take revenge, it was necessary to make their stand public and increase the chances of their race surviving.
The Worshipping Dao Academy had a brief alliance with the Dao Opening Sect to deal with the Emperor Enlightening Academy after Bai Li changed the rules and cheated to deal with Wang Wei and Li Jun.
The Dao Opening Sect even placed their Emperor Scripture at outrageous prices in the Academy to draw more loose cultivators and weaken the Emperor Enlightening Academy.
This alliance was brief and temporary. But now, the upper echelons began discussing whether they needed a real and permanent alliance.
The Eternal Dream Sect has always been the Dao Opening Sect's most trusted allies; they supported each other for most things. However, in recent generations, this bond has not been as powerful as in the past.
So, they decided to change this fact in this generation.
Western Continent, a Devil Lineage Meeting:
Countless representatives of Devil Emperor Lineage appeared before each other using a formation.
"Patriarch Mo, why did you call us?"
"I'm calling to discuss how to deal with our crisis?"
"Crisis? What crisis?"
"There is no need to play stupid," replied the patriarch of the Mo Clan. "If the Di Clan has an Eternal Emperor in this generation, he will definitely clean the Western Continent to increase their family's control of the Western Continent."
"But he might not win," argued someone else.
"And if he doesn't, the situation will be worse," replied Patriarch Mo. "You saw how Wang Wei acted after he was influenced by Heart Demonn–he saw us as the only things to vent his anger or gather merit.
"Furthermore, you should all know that our Ancestor had the destiny to create a new era by culling the development of devil cultivators in the West. However, something went wrong, but this also meant his mission was not accomplished.
"Do you think this Era Son will miss this opportunity to gather merit, luck, and destiny?"
The meeting became quiet as no one spoke. They knew Patriarch Mo was correct. In the past few Eras, the devil cultivators have done too much. They allowed foreigners to intervene in the development of the Myriad Emperor World, which essentially meant they were traitors.
Many factions were secretly influenced, controlled, or sponsored by the Ancient Clan, doing many shady things for them.
They have done too much, and it's about time to pay for their actions; in other words, they were about to suffer a terrible Karma Backlash from Heaven and Earth.
If they don't do something, their reign over the Western Continent might come to an end. No, even worse, the devil cultivators might reach the weakest period during the entire history of the Myriad Emperor World.
"What do you expect us to do?" asked one of the leaders. "If your ancestor had succeeded in reviving, our situation might improve. But now, we don't have much of a choice."
"I have two solutions to our problem," said Patriarch Mo. "The first is one to pull our resources together to cultivate an Immortal Sovereign in the shortest time possible."
"That's a good idea and all, but who will be that person."
They were devil cultivators, pursuing power and strength at all costs. So, how could they use their resources to cultivate an Immortal Sovereign for a foreign competitor?
"We will have a competition to decide who is chosen. Plus, the chosen individual will sign the most restrictive contract and oath that they will no longer belong to one faction but serve as a protector for the entire Devil Lineage."
No one said anything. This method was the most ideal, but most people wanted to use this opportunity to increase the strength of their factions.
"I know how you feel, but we are facing our eradication," continued Patriarch Mo. "So, it's best to control your desires and consider your safety first."
"We can continue talking about this method. What is your other idea?"
"We need to buy time while we cultivate the Immortal Sovereign."
"Do you want us all to activate our Emperor Formation and block the Western Continent?" asked one of the few wise devil cultivators.
"That might work. Even the Di Clan will be powerless if we all work together."
"Although this method is good, it's too expensive."
"Although this method is a good idea, but the Di Clan will always be a major flaw in such a large-scale formation. For an Eternal Emperor, this flaw is more than enough."
"So, what are you suggesting."
"Since we are back into a corner, we act dangerously," Patriarch Mo sneered.
"You want to introduce foreign factions and Emperors into this world?"
