Inside a secret room, Han Li"s body laid unconscious on a bed with blood all over the floor.
His state was not ideal right now. His skin was opened vertically from his skull all the way to his feet. All of his internal organs and exoskeletons were visually exposed to the outside world. The only thing that indicated that he was still alive was the slight expansion of his lungs like two balloons filled with oxygen at a carnival fair.
There were countless formations made of countless runes that s.h.i.+ned on Han Li every few breaths. These formations were recording and a.n.a.lyzing every part of fluctuation on Han Li"s body.
From his breathing to his cultivation level, from his muscle to his blood, from his divine sense to even his soul fluctuation.
There was no part left unchecked, no stone left unturned.
In a bed beside Han Li, there were 3 drops of blood that glowed brighter than the summer" sun at its peak.
These three drops of blood were actually the source blood of Han Li. Each of them contain a great amount of energy and could be used to create powerful pills.
Right now, Great Elder of the Formation Hall--Yan Ji--was observing these 3 drops of blood with great ecstasy.
He proclaimed to w.a.n.g Fu, the Great Elder of the Refining Hall: "I have found the Fragment of Law from the source blood! The Young Master was right! What about you guys, did you discover anything?"
Great Elder w.a.n.g Fu responded: "Me and Great Elder Li Jian have also discovered the Fragment of Law in his soul."
Great elder Li Jian, who was responsible for the Alchemy Hall said in reverie: "Han Li is only in the Peak of Divine Body Realm, yet he already has access to some power of Law that only Void Shattered Realm powerhouse can have. No wonder the people with special physique are so abnormal in the early stage of cultivation!"
Great Elder Qin Hua of the Talisman Hall is a beautiful middle-age woman. She asked the two Supervising Supreme Elders: "Supreme Elders, did we miss something during our observation?"
One of the Supreme Elders answered: "Everything has been recorded and reviewed by the two of us. All you need to do is relay the information to the Young Master."
"What should we do with Han Li?" asked Great Elder w.a.n.g Fu. The Young Master was considered his own nephew, as such, he did not want to have an enemy of his lying around the sect. He would have preferred that Han Li be dead.
Great Elder Qin Hua--who belonged to the sectarian faction--immediately replied: "According to the order of the Young Master, we just need to put Han Li"s body back the way he was. Although from now on, Han Li will only have less than 80% of his previous strength."
"Furthermore, the Young Master said to reward him with a Heart Demon Pill to allow him to break through the Primordial Spirit Realm."
"Why would the Young Master leave him alive. Does he still have so much compa.s.sion?" asked Great Elder Li Jian.
Great Elder Qin Huan answered back: "No, according to the Young Master, Han Li still has certain values in the future. As for what values he was referring to, I have no idea."
"Very well," answered Great Elder Yan Ji. "Since the Young Master has orders to spare him, then do so. However, someone should be sent to monitor him and Long Bo at all times."
Everyone agreed with Great Elder Yan Ji--especially the two Supreme Elders. Seeing the different factions of the Sect working together for the better future of the Dao Opening Sect, they knew that their generation had excellent successors.
The future of the sect is going in the right direction.
A few hours later, Han Li was sent back to his mountain with a weakened body and a few memories missing. Although he immediately felt something was wrong with him when he woke up, he did not know the direct cause.
Even his mentor did not dare tell him the real reason--even if he wanted to. Great Elder Long Bo knew that one of the main reasons that his direct disciple was still alive right now was due to his ignorance.
If he ever discovered the real cause of his body"s abnormality and became resentful, then only death will follow him. As such, he lied and told his disciple that he might have done something wrong during his cultivation and he will find a way to fix him.
Meanwhile, in the w.a.n.g Family"s Mountain.
w.a.n.g Wei was reading the result of the a.n.a.lysis of special physique from the Great Elders and the Supreme Elders.
It turned out that his hypothesis was right. People born with special physique were granted Fragments of Law by Heaven upon their birth.
The #1 Absolute Chaos Physique was granted a fragment of the Law of Chaos. The #2 Heavy Axe Physique was granted a fragment of the Law of Power. And the #3 Seven Emotion Six Desire Physique was granted the Law of Seven Emotion and Six Desires.
w.a.n.g Wei believed that as long as he can get the source of a Law and baptized both his body and soul with it and survive, then he will acquire a special physique.
However, the process will not be as simple as stated. Fortunately, w.a.n.g Wei was long prepared and made sufficient preparation for this endeavor.
To make sure that everything goes as planned, enough preparation is always needed.
Suddenly, w.a.n.g Wei thought of something. If he had enough data from one of the Top 3 Physiques, his plans would not only be much safer, but also have a higher chance of success.
However, the problem lied in the fact that he could not get access to any of the top 3 physiques to properly dissect.
The number one physique is hiding somewhere in a Lower Realm. The number 3 physique is also hiding somewhere in the Eastern Azure Dragon Continent.
The only available physique left is the number 2 physique, who is the crown prince of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty, located in the same Central Continent as the Dao Opening Sect.
However, even if w.a.n.g Wei knew where he was, there is nothing he could do. As a person born with such powerful physique, the crown prince will definitely be a great contestant for this generation Heaven Mandate.
Such Heaven Chosen will definitely have a Supreme Realm powerhouse protecting him 24/7--just like w.a.n.g Wei did.
Additionally, the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty is a powerful dynasty that has nurtured a total of three Great Emperors. As such, they are not easy to mess with.
Although w.a.n.g Wei is the Young Sect Master of the Dao Opening Sect, he did not want to abuse his powers and create powerful enemies for the sect all over the world.
Despite all of these circ.u.mstances, w.a.n.g Wei did not immediately give up the idea of dissecting the number 2 physique. All he needed was the right time, place or circ.u.mstance for his action to succeed.
And w.a.n.g Wei knew that the "right" moment was quickly approaching.
That was the Spirit Road four years later. This was the perfect place. Now, all w.a.n.g Wei needed was the right bait to lure his prey into the trap.
