Chapter 396: Ji Wuya’s Plan!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
What? Less than a thousand years?
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuya turned pale with fright.
The panic and fear in his heart instantly reached its peak.
What could they do in a thousand years?
For Celestial King realm beings like them, a thousand years was not even enough for them to cultivate in seclusion once.
Most importantly, this was too sudden. They were not prepared at all!
The more he thought about it, the more terror flooded Ji Wuya’s heart. At this moment, even as a Celestial King, he was a little fl.u.s.tered.
“A thousand years isn’t long, but it’s also not short. This calamity is an unprecedented tribulation and an unprecedented opportunity. If we handle it well, we can still safely survive it. This epoch is the last of this era. Therefore, when the epoch calamity descends, the era calamity will also descend.”
What? The era calamity?
Hearing that, Ji Wuya grew even more terrified.
If he could barely withstand the epoch calamity, then facing the era calamity, he would really be a mere ant.
Because even supreme Immortal Emperors of the cosmic could not escape the era calamity!
“Dare I ask Supreme, why is the calamity coming?”
Ha…
After taking a deep breath, Ji Wuya knelt again and begged to know.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao looked at him and did not answer immediately.
Seeing this, Ji Wuya did not dare to make any other moves. He immediately prostrated on the ground and focused all his attention.
A word from the Supreme could decide the fate of him and the entire Ji family.
“From now on, within a thousand years, the destiny of the Taicang Immortal Emperor, who controls the fate of this cosmic, has been determined. His lifespan is ending and he will eventually die. The day Taicang Immortal Emperor dies will be the day the calamity begins.”
After a long silence, Lin Wudao said slowly.
What? Taicang Immortal Emperor was about to die?
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuya’s body trembled non-stop.
There was boundless fear, but also boundless excitement and agitation.
“Thank you for your guidance, Supreme!”
He kowtowed in an extremely respectful and devout manner.
Since this matter came from the Supreme, there would definitely be no mistake. Within a thousand years, Taicang Immortal Emperor would die.
“We still have a thousand years. Although we can’t set up a plan, we can still make some preparations. Now that 1 have grasped the initiative, I must at least obtain some benefits for the Ji family.”
Ji Wuya secretly clenched his fists. In his eyes, there was a dazzling light.
Lin Wudao frowned as if he had seen through his thoughts and plans.
“This matter concerns the Immortal Emperor, so it shouldn’t be spread easily. Sometimes, seizing the initiative can bring about opportunities and fortune. However, if it is not used well, it will also bring disaster and destruction. There is a limit to everything. If it exceeds the scope of one’s ability, opportunities will also become a butcher’s knife that kills people,” Lin Wudao said nonchalantly.
Hearing this, Ji Wuya’s heart trembled.
“Yes, Supreme!”
These words dispelled some of the crazy thoughts in his heart.
“If there’s nothing else, you can leave. From now on, the ninth floor of the Nine Heavens Tower will be my cultivation ground. If there is nothing important, you are not allowed to disturb me.”
“Yes!”
Ji Wuya did not dare to disobey.
After bowing, he left with Ji Yuan.
Whoosh!
After leaving the ninth floor, Ji Wuya called out to Ji Yuan. Then, he raised his hand and pointed at the latter’s glabella.
“All!”
Along with Ji Yuan’s m.u.f.fled groan, all memories of the era calamity in his soul were forcefully severed.
The era calamity was of great importance. Just in case, he would not allow anyone to leak the news because if they were not careful, they would die. Ji Wuya could not afford to take this risk.
“Call Ruyue over.”
“Yes!”
Ji Yuan bowed respectfully and turned to leave.
Whoosh!
A moment later, Ji Ruyue’s beautiful figure appeared as a beam of celestial light descended.
“Greetings, Grand Elder. 1 wonder what instructions the elder has for me to hurry over?” Ji Ruyue asked curiously.
Seeing her arrive, Ji Wuya did not dawdle. He raised his hand and used his Ancient Celestial King cultivation to seal the surrounding void. His expression instantly became extremely serious.
“Elder, this is…”
“Yue’er, the cosmic tide has arrived. You know that, right?”
“Yes. Elder, I’ve read the records of the cosmos tide in the family. It’s said that once the cosmos tide arrives, it won’t be long before the epoch calamity. Did you summon me here for the epoch calamity?” Ji Ruyue asked softly.
Hearing this, Ji Wuya nodded and then shook his head.
“Yes and no. This calamity is no ordinary calamity. The reason why 1 summoned you here is mainly because 1 have two things to tell you. From now on, the ninth level of the Nine Heavens Tower will be the place for Supreme to cultivate. If there isn’t an order from the Supreme, don’t disturb him.”
The Supreme was here?
Ji Ruyue was pleasantly surprised.
“The second thing is that I want you to cut off all ties with the foreign races as quickly as possible. We shall not have any ties with them for a thousand years.”
What? Cut off all relations with the outside world?
Ji Ruyue was a little confused when she heard this.
“Elder, why is this? Could it be… Is it also related to the epoch calamity?”
“That’s right.”
“But shouldn’t we be establishing ties and seeking protection from powerful factions since the era of calamity is coming? Why are you desperately trying to cut off all ties with the other families at this critical moment? By doing this, wouldn’t the Ji family be left alone and helpless? At that time, once the era calamity descends, the Ji family will surely turn into ashes.”
As she spoke, Ji Ruyue’s expression became unprecedentedly serious as she stared at Ji Wuya.
In response, Ji Wuya sighed.
Then, a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
“Yue’er, in this world, which major power can compare to a Supreme?”
What? The Supreme?
Ji Ruyue’s expression changed instantly.
“Elder, you mean… The Supreme would also partic.i.p.ate in the epoch calamity? How is this possible? What sort of existence is the Supreme? He has long since proven his Dao to be eternal! No matter how powerful the epoch calamity is, it will be nothing to the Supreme, right?” She asked in bewilderment.
Although she expressed her doubts, she knew that things were not as simple as she thought when she saw Ji Wuya’s mysterious smile.
As expected, upon hearing her words, Ji Wuya narrowed his eyes.
“Yue’er, haven’t you observed anything special about the Supreme’s visits to the City of Heavens?”
Huh? Special?
Ji Ruyue pondered.
“Have you noticed that every time the Supreme comes to the City of Heavens, he’s always looking for things that mortals use? What does this mean? My guess is that the Supreme is grooming a junior or a disciple. It’s not long before the calamity. Given the methods of the Supreme, the junior he has groomed will definitely rise in an extremely short time. At that time, he will also partic.i.p.ate in the great tribulation.”
“As long as we firmly grasp this line, when the time comes, we will stand together with the junior or descendant of the Supreme. Wouldn’t that be equivalent to obtaining the protection of the Supreme? This way, whether it’s for you, me, or the entire Ji family, it will be a great fortune. Now, do you understand?” Ji Wuya said meaningfully.
Hearing this, Ji Ruyue seemed to have been enlightened and instantly understood the crux.
“Don’t worry, elder. i know what to do.”
She nodded heavily.
“Very well. In that case, let’s go. In another three days, the cosmic tide will arrive. If possible, you should go and search for your opportunities too.”
After saying that, Ji Wuya instantly disappeared from where he was.
After he left, Ji Ruyue looked at the primal chaos void in the distance. She then came to the ninth floor of the Nine Heavens Tower and waited quietly.
Lin Wudao had no idea of Ji Wuya’s plan.
At this moment, he had already returned to the outside world..
