376: The notorious fairy strategy system!
While the released footage brought a tremendous visual impact, it also left many Prodigies traumatized by Kong Wudao.
They finally understood why Emperor Shitian had said back then that Kong Wudao would be a worthy opponent.
Killing Prodigies was like slaughtering chickens. Even if several Prodigies joined forces, they were still no match for him, and were often completely wiped out.
Such a monster-like existence—aside from Emperor Shitian and those Prodigies who truly stood at the apex of the pyramid, they really could not imagine who else could compete with him.
This news was not deliberately concealed. It soon swept through the entire Extraterritorial Land like a storm, shocking countless Daoist sects and powerhouses, and causing a massive uproar.
"What exactly is the Origin of this Burial Dao?"
"To think he could single-handedly sweep and crush all the Prodigies on an entire trial path; is this really something a human can do?"
"I heard this person has an unknown background and we don't know which force he comes from. Could this be a dark scheme deliberately concocted by the Divine Dao Academy?"
But this comment did not circulate for long before someone jumped out to refute it.
"Impossible!"
"According to the footage released by the Divine Dao Academy, Burial Dao not only single-handedly swept through several Prodigies, but he was also the fastest to clear the trial among all Prodigies on all trial paths!"
"Even His Highness Emperor Shitian, the successor of the Heavenly Revelation Divine Mansion, was much slower than Burial Dao!"
These words were undoubtedly like a meteorite crashing into a boiling ocean, causing the entire Extraterritorial Land to surge with increasingly turbulent waves, like a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering magnitude ten earthquake.
Emperor Shitian! That was the invincible legend of their entire Heavenly Domain!
At a young age, not only had his cultivation reached the fourth level of the Saint Lord Realm, but he had also awakened two top-tier Origin Physiques.
In particular, the Three Thousand Dao Hearts he possessed granted him an innate, extremely high Comprehension Ability and insight into the Great Dao.
Judging solely by talent and Comprehension Ability, Emperor Shitian could rightfully be called the undisputed number one in the entire Extraterritorial Land.
Yet, such an existence, universally revered as the number one in talent and Comprehension Ability, had invisibly lost on the trial path—which tested Aptitude and Comprehension Ability—to an unknown, obscure figure named Burial Dao.
Doesn't this mean... that Burial Dao's Aptitude and Comprehension Ability are even stronger than Emperor Shitian's?
Such a result made the entire Extraterritorial Land boil over. Countless forces, and even the Origin God Clan, began to investigate information regarding Burial Dao on a massive scale.
But compared to awe and wariness, more Prodigies felt increasingly angry and stifled.
If Burial Dao had noble Bloodline flowing in his body comparable to theirs, it would be fine. But as it happened, he possessed the Bloodline of the slave race they looked down upon the most.
In another sense, didn't this mean that the slave race they had always looked down upon was actually far superior to them—those with noble Bloodline—in terms of Aptitude and Comprehension Ability?
If they didn't find a way to get back at Kong Wudao, not only would it be the biggest joke in the world, but it would also be rubbing their ancestral dignity into the dirt!
...
In a palace within the Divine Dao Academy, compared to the lively discussions about Kong Wudao outside, this palace was much colder and quieter.
Looking through the tightly closed doors, inside the vast and empty palace, there were many young-looking, powerful Prodigies standing on both sides. They were all top successors from various forces.
"Your Highness, this is everything that happened on the trial path." "Youwei has absolutely nothing to hide."
In the center of the palace, a figure in pure white knelt on the ground, head bowed low, her posture displaying utmost humility and respect. This person was none other than Chu Youwei, the primary successor of the Jueyuan Emperor Clan.
At the highest position in the palace, Emperor Shitian, dressed in a black robe embroidered with nine dragons, sat on the throne, his index finger rhythmically tapping on the armrest.
The crisp sound echoed continuously in the silent hall, like an ancient bell tolling, shaking the soul. Each time it rang, Chu Youwei's heart sank a little further.
In reality, before coming to this palace, she had already hidden the first part of the Jia Yi Magic Skill that Kong Wudao had given her in a secret location known only to herself.
She had indeed recounted everything that happened on the trial path without missing a word. The only thing she concealed was the Jia Yi Magic Skill that Kong Wudao had given her.
This Cultivation Technique was extraordinary. She had long regarded it as her trump card for a future comeback. Even though she was currently Emperor Shitian's nominal follower, she could never hand over this Cultivation Technique.
A moment later, Emperor Shitian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them. His gaze was deep and calm, yet the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
"Youwei, have you really accounted for everything?" "Do not mix truth with falsehood and hide any key items."
Upon hearing these words, Chu Youwei's heart trembled slightly. Her expression almost lost control because of it.
However, perhaps because her mind had been repeatedly assaulted by Kong Wudao on the trial path, she now seemed to have a high immunity to this. Regardless, she insisted that everything she said was the truth. She was even willing to swear by her Dao Heart to prove her innocence.
"Your Highness Shitian, this guy Burial Dao has always been cunning!"
A handsome young man with peach-blossom eyes suddenly stepped out and cupped his hands in a salute to Emperor Shitian: "Perhaps this kid knew that Youwei is your follower! So he deliberately let her go, wanting to use such despicable means to cause internal turmoil among us! Please, Lord Shitian, see through this!"
This young man was named Li Jincheng. He was the Emperor Son of the Red Dust Emperor Clan. At first glance, he gave the impression of a veteran in the love field, or even someone too effeminate. But he was indeed that kind of person.
Looking across the entire Extraterritorial Land, he definitely had the most confidantes from the Mortal World. Every month, he could hook up with different stunningly beautiful women. After all, he was not from this world either; he was also a Transmigration practitioner.
Furthermore, he had awakened a special System—the Fairy Conquest System! He only needed to woo heaven-favored women and make them fall for him to obtain special System rewards of varying degrees.
Moreover, if he could make them completely fall in love with him and become his Dao Companion, he would have an even greater chance of obtaining the ultimate System reward!
In his previous life, he was even called an "Internet Casanova." Flirting and pleasing women were almost his most proficient skills. The Fairy Conquest System was practically tailor-made for him!
