Chapter 776 - 770: Endure a Little Longer
After hearing Yang Jing’s suggestion, Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up involuntarily.
It must be said, Yang Jing’s move is indeed clever.
Using the World Honored Dao Fruit as bait to make Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha turn against each other.
In this way, the three of them are restrained by each other.
The only one who can stop Lin Yuan, Xi Huang, is forced to undergo soldier resolution and reincarnation.
Thus, the whole void is unimpeded for Lin Yuan.
"Brilliant strategy!"
"I will discuss with Yin Celestial Son, and once the fake World Honored Dao Fruit is successfully created, we will act according to this plan," Lin Yuan said to Yang Jing.
After leaving Yang Jing, Lin Yuan returned to his villa, spent a few days with several women, then cleared the fish roe lucky bag and headed to the Underworld to discuss with Yin Celestial Son.
...
...
Underworld.
After arriving in the Underworld, Lin Yuan informed Yin Celestial Son of Yang Jing’s plan.
After hearing the plan, Yin Celestial Son nodded slightly: "Indeed, Yang Jing’s plan is much more feasible than ours."
"By comparison, he does understand Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha better than us. Let’s follow his plan."
"If everything goes smoothly and we can force Xi Huang to undergo soldier resolution and reincarnation, we will have another general."
After soldier resolution and reincarnation, one experiences the ’Womb-Oblivion’.
’Womb-Oblivion’, meaning Xi Huang would lose his previous memories, believing himself to be human.
Back in the day, Yang Jing also went through the ’Womb-Oblivion’.
Yang Jing at that time endured countless pains that ordinary people could not bear, and only then broke through the ’Womb-Oblivion’ to recover his past memories.
Xi Huang’s strength is far from being as strong as the Daoist Ancestor back then.
Therefore, when Xi Huang reincarnates, he is unlikely to experience the numerous ordeals and sufferings that Yang Jing did in those days.
So, after Xi Huang’s reincarnation, he is unlikely to break through the ’Womb-Oblivion’.
If he can’t break through the ’Womb-Oblivion’, then he isn’t Xi Huang and won’t oppose Heaven and Earth.
Moreover, even if Xi Huang is fortunate enough to break through the ’Womb-Oblivion’,
once reincarnated as a human, he is likely to think from a human’s perspective.
He is likely to side with Lin Yuan and the others, just like Yang Jing now.
The brilliance of Yang Jing’s strategy lies just there.
On the surface, using a World Honored Dao Fruit to help Xi Huang undergo soldier resolution and reincarnation seems like losing a World Honored Dao Fruit.
In reality, the reincarnated Xi Huang will become their ally.
It seems like a small loss, but in fact, it’s a huge gain.
"Has the World Honored Dao Fruit that can deceive Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha been created?" Lin Yuan asked Yin Celestial Son.
𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Yin Celestial Son nodded, waved his hand, and two World Honored Dao Fruits glowing with Buddha’s Radiance and seemingly emitting demonic energy appeared.
Lin Yuan took these two imitation World Honored Dao Fruits into his hands, observing them closely for a long while.
Lin Yuan wasn’t sure if Wa Huang, Demon Lord, or Buddha could see if these two World Honored Dao Fruits are real or fake.
Anyway, Lin Yuan himself couldn’t tell if these two World Honored Dao Fruits were real or fake.
"Ninety-nine percent similar, even I can’t tell them apart without careful examination!" Yin Celestial Son said to Lin Yuan.
Ever since creating these two fake World Honored Dao Fruits, Yin Celestial Son dared not place the real and fake World Honored Dao Fruits together.
Afraid they would be mixed up and he wouldn’t be able to tell them apart.
"Since everything is ready, can we start the plan?" Lin Yuan asked Yin Celestial Son.
Yin Celestial Son said calmly, "No rush!"
"We need to wait it out, exhaust their patience, only then will it be convenient for us to act."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment, feeling that Yin Celestial Son had a point.
Peacock Great Ming King hadn’t been back for long, and his injuries hadn’t healed yet.
If he returned with the World Honored Dao Fruit within a few days, it would seem a bit fake.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan didn’t rush anymore.
The journey to the Returning Ruins wasn’t pressing either.
Lin Yuan wasn’t in a hurry now, but Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha would start to worry.
...
...
Ever since Peacock Great Ming King returned to Heaven and Earth, Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha didn’t stay at Wa Huang’s Palace anymore.
The three of them simply went to the edge of the void and Heaven and Earth, lying in wait, ready to respond to Peacock Great Ming King at any time.
Now, Yin Celestial Son’s Power of Six Paths Reincarnation enveloped the entire Heaven and Earth, even preventing Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha from projecting mana into Heaven and Earth.
They knew nothing about what was happening inside Heaven and Earth and could only wait blindly on the edges of the void and Heaven and Earth.
Among Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha, Demon Lord was the most impatient.
Initially, Demon Lord could bear waiting, but after a month, he began to lose patience.
"Won’t Peacock Great Ming King come back?" Demon Lord asked Wa Huang with some doubt.
Wa Huang’s expression shifted slightly, seeming a bit worried that Peacock Great Ming King might make a genuine escape and not return.
However, her demeanor quickly became assured again, confidently saying, "Impossible!"
"He is under my Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique, and my Celestial Heart Dao Planting Technique will not fail."
As Yin Celestial Son said, Wa Huang is extremely confident, even arrogant.
Once she used the Eye Seed Technique, she was filled with confidence in her skills.
On the other hand, Buddha remained composed, sitting cross-legged in the void, his emotions incredibly stable.
"It’s normal for it to take a while!"
"If he returned with the World Honored Dao Fruit in just a few days, I’d suspect something’s wrong with him!" Buddha said slowly.
In Buddha’s view, even though Peacock Great Ming King was forced to join Wa Huang’s Palace,
after such a long time, unforeseen changes could happen.
Even if Peacock Great Ming King found an opportunity to escape now, even if Lin Yuan didn’t suspect him, others might.
In such circumstances, Peacock Great Ming King couldn’t possibly steal the World Honored Dao Fruit.
Only after Peacock Great Ming King proved himself, regaining everyone’s trust, would there be a chance to steal the World Honored Dao Fruit.
If Peacock Great Ming King returned within a few days with the World Honored Dao Fruit, Buddha wouldn’t dare take it.
Yin Celestial Son’s idea of waiting also factored in this mindset of Buddha, Wa Huang, and Demon Lord.
Waiting not only exhausts their patience but also reduces their suspicions.
The longer they wait, although their anxiety grows, when Peacock Great Ming King appears before them with the World Honored Dao Fruit,
they’ll more likely believe that the World Honored Dao Fruit is real.
In the first month, Yin Celestial Son did not take any action.
In the second month, Yin Celestial Son still did not act.
In the third month, Yin Celestial Son continued to hold back.
Half a year later, even Buddha began to feel anxious, and that’s when Yin Celestial Son started to implement their plan.
