2105 The secret of the former Wielder of the Heaven’s Will

By understanding their greed, one would be able to better control and make use of humans.

Usually, the kind of people who believed themselves to be the smartest in the room were the easiest to make use of.

The black stele’s plans in the Beast Realm were proceeding rather smoothly so far. Other than when it was stabbed by White’s long-range sword attack, everything was going well.

In the air, pitch-black spatial passages appeared one after another. Five figures wrapped in black mist made of evil energy of the Netherworld stepped out of these spatial passages, landing in front of the pitch-black stele.

They were all experts that belonged to the Beast Realm who had been infected by the evil energy, becoming evil demons.

The strength of these fallen beast cultivators had yet to reach the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm, and they relied on the power of the pitch-black stele, which aided them in creating the spatial passages, to come over.

The black stele asked, “Have all the evil treasures been distributed?”

A lizard-looking beast cultivator nodded and said, “Yes, the batch was distributed across the North Frontier of the Beast Realm. However, the Beast Realm is now more equipped to deal with the treasures than it was in the past. After people find them, they are swiftly taken away and sealed. The number of infected is continuously decreasing.”

“It doesn’t matter,” the black stele said calmly. “We only need to continue distributing evil treasures. At this stage, infecting more creatures is no longer my main purpose, so everything is going according to the plan.”

“What should we do next?” asked a beast cultivator with black scales.

“We just need to wait patiently,” the black stele said slowly. “Before entering the final stage of my plan, I must eliminate a rather troublesome thing in Garre Holy Mountain. A pawn of mine has already entered the trial grounds of the holy mountain.”

The lizard beast cultivator asked, “There are powerful guardians in Garre Holy Mountain. Will that pawn succeed?”

The black stele replied, “The purpose of that pawn is to acquire information on the source of suppression in Garre Holy Mountain. It is only after I know its ins and outs that I would be able to design a solid plan to destroy it. Of course, if the pawn can directly take away, or destroy, the source of suppression, even better.”

“Do you need us to make a move?” asked the black-scaled beast cultivator.

The stele said calmly, “There’s no need to be in such a rush. The guardians of the holy mountain are not easy to deal with. It is not yet time to confront them.”

“Then… What are we going to do after the source of suppression is removed?” a skinny beast cultivator asked in a hoarse voice.

The stele said, “At that time, the entire Beast Realm will be under my control, and the mysteries hidden in this world by the previous Wielder of the Heaven’s Will will fall into my hands.”

The previous Wielder of the Will, the one who corresponded to Netherworld Ruler White, could be said to be a very willful existence.

Just because he was bored of being the Wielder of the Will, he abandoned his position and disappeared.

However, there were various signs implying that this Wielder of the Will had discovered something, which led him to make all kinds of preparations.

And he’d left something here in the Beast Realm, something related to “time.”

There was even a chance that it was information on how to “break free” from the shackles of his position.

After the former Wielder of the Will got bored, he resigned forcibly. As a result, the top existences in the universe were all left speculating if he had found a way to smoothly leave his position.

Therefore, in addition to controlling the Beast Realm, the black stele wanted to uncover the mysteries left behind by this previous Wielder of the Will.

Inside the crystal world.

The thin man with the spear walked slowly, checking every inch of the ground under his feet.

The power of the evil ring sealed in the spear was seeping out, whispering in his ear.

However, this level of murmuring did not affect him in the slightest.

Beast cultivators infected by the evil energy of the Netherworld would normally degenerate into demons and become slaves of the evil treasures.

However, people like him who had a strong will and managed to stop the infection could instead gain some information from the source of the evil energy.

In the past few months, he had gained a lot of benefits by deciphering the information hidden in the treasure.

This time, the target of the thin man was a magical treasure left on the trial grounds of Garre Holy Mountain.

The magical treasure was a Tribulation Transcender-level divine weapon that was currently without an owner.

It did not originate from Garre Holy Mountain, and it was unknown as to who had left it in the holy mountain.

And if taking this magical treasure could somehow affect Garre Holy Mountain… that was of no interest to him.

Although he lived in the Beast Realm, he was not a beast cultivator.

After taking the magic treasure, he could just leave the Beast Realm.

The thin man’s consciousness expanded to its limits. It penetrated into the depths of the crystal world, searching through it inch by inch.

He was pretty lucky, as half an hour later, he sensed the aura of the treasure!

“Found it!” The thin man smiled.

Coincidentally, the treasure appeared to be trying to break free.

Through his mental scan, he could tell that the treasure should have been buried deeper in the crystal world.

But for some reason, it decided to emerge from the ground today.

According to rumors, once a magical treasure reached the Eighth or Ninth Stage, it was possible for them to birth their own consciousness.

Natural treasures were meant for those who were fated with them.

Could it be that this treasure sensed that it had fate with me and started emerging from the ground?

It seems that this opportunity is truly meant for me!

The thin man laughed, clearly in a good mood.

He took out his spear and slammed it into the ground.

The spear spun, creating a hole that led all the way to the location of the magical treasure.

The thin man jumped into the hole, excited to see the treasure.

Song Shuhang, who was in a state of deep meditation from which he could not extricate himself, suddenly sensed something.

He was still muddle-headed as he was still slowly regrowing his body, but under the influence of Song Shuhang’s mind, the wooden body began to make hand seals and cast the technique that Senior White Two taught him to control the stone tablet.

The stone tablet at the bottom of the crystal world was summoned once again. It vibrated vigorously, and then it began rushing upward.

❄️❄️❄️

“The divine weapon is coming to me!” The thin man was overjoyed when he sensed that the divine weapon below him was emitting light and seemingly actively greeting him.

I am indeed the destined master of this divine weapon.

It is actively approaching me!

It’s mine!

“Come! Join me as I rise to the top of the world.” The thin man opened his arms, welcoming the magical treasure.
