Chapter 1357 Vessel

chapter 1357 vessel

wang wei left his fighting space, and the first thing he saw was his ancestor sitting cross-leg in the void with a weird puppet guarding her. his lips twitched, thinking how mongke was probably suffering.

"ancestor, what's the situation?"

yan hai looked at him before explaining what happened with the elder bark puppet. wang wei frowned after hearing her explanation; this was not good news. the parasites must have been busy, so the actions of these puppets were not theirs.

wang wei casually destroyed the puppet and waited. he frowned after five minutes and no response. he looked at the seal in the distance. his first instinct was to start destroying it with his ancestor. after all, mongke and old man dai can still hold on for a while. however, will things be this simple? will supreme unity let them act after expressing his desire to prevent them from freeing the void illusion realm?

'let's play it safe first,' wang wei thought. he realized that he was at an impasse, and the wrong move meant he would fail his objective — he could not fail. the liberation of the mortals was the first step to dealing with the lock. his battle with supreme unity had just begun, and he could not afford any failures.

so, wang wei shifted his focus to the remaining two battles. old man dai was fine. he followed his agreement with wang wei to the tee. his only objective was to hold off seven cauldron — nothing more, nothing less. such a battle method was aggravating for the taoist priest, but old man dai did not care. he remained steadfast, ensuring his opponent could not free herself to aid the others.

as for mongke? well, he was suffering. undead phoenix was lost in the lust of torturing his opponent. as such, his body suffered countless minor and severe wounds but nothing that could be considered true damage. however, wang wei did not worry about him. in his eyes, wang wei saw a firm will, and more importantly, he could see mongke was using this opportunity to increase his fighting experience.

'what should my next move be?' wang wei thought. since he chose to play it first, his next move should be to free his ally so they can attack the seal together. the issue is who to help first.

'seven cauldron has the highest chance of something unexpected occurring,' wang wei analyzed. his gaze then shifted to undead phoenix. 'additionally, although i already plan to use him to deal with five feathers, it's in my best interest for him not to be in his best state.'

if he could severely injure the undead phoenix and release the news to five feathers, it should accelerate the speed at which they confront each other. 'unless supreme unity intervened, there is no way for five feathers to heal herself in the next 100,000 or even million yuan epoch. meanwhile, i only need undead phoenix's injury unable to be healed in the next 100 yuan epochs, forcing them to fight each other. then, he'll have no choice but to sacrifice one of his lives to heal himself.'

with a preliminary plan, wang wei no longer hesitated. he accessed his future wife's treasury and took out a dagger. he observed this paragon artifact and nodded. this item was one of the best artifacts for assassination, especially for making the target suffer.

"let's move," wang wei said. "time is running out." the two reunited with yan hai before entering old man dai's battlefield. 'thank the heavens, you're finally here."

"thank you for your hard work," wang wei nodded before focusing on seven cauldron. the two stared at each other for a few seconds, making wang wei frown. "kill her as quickly as possible," he ordered.

"what's with the worry in your tone?" yan hai asked.

"haven't you realized? she's too calm." indeed. someone like seven cauldron should be panicking by now, trying to find a way to escape. however, she was calmly looking at them, with even some hidden disdain deep in her eyes. the team did not know whether wang wei was right, but they were not willing to risk it, so they all attacked simultaneously.

the result was unexpected. a black and white shield surrounded seven cauldron, easily blocking the attack from so many paragons. moreover, the unknown pure yin-yang power inside her body was activating, raising her aura drastically.

"damn it, why didn't i think of that," wang wei cursed. he reacted swiftly by summoning his golden body of merit.

"what's happening?" old man dai asked, his voice not hiding his fear and worry. of course, wang wei would not tell him he had figured out that the seven cauldron was supreme unity's vessel to use his power in the world, just like feng heng was to maitreya.

"in my name and title as the honorary buddha," wang wei's golden body uttered. "i call upon the mother buddha to descend into the world to assist me in sealing this evildoer." wang wei knew only power of the same level could stop supreme unity, so he made the best response to the situation. as expected, golden lights manifested in this sealed place, followed by buddhist chants and mantras. he successfully summoned some of maitreya's power using his [sage authority]. a golden palm descended from the sky, releasing a golden magic circle to seal seven cauldron and the descent of supreme unity's power.

"this is not enough," wang wei yelled as he watched seven cauldron's yin-yang symbol block his seal. "everyone, use your best sealing methods."

yan hai was the first to react. she waved her hand to manifest seven swords that emanated the power of stars. they formed a sealing array, channeling the endless power of sword dao and stars to seal their target. old man dai's method was an enormous turtle shell with unparalleled weight and mass. he pressed it above seven cauldron, using its power to immobilize her.

mongke's approach was to summon 33 ancestral spirits of the barbarian clan and for them to work together to establish the [33 spirit temple sealing array].

no one hesitated after wang wei spoke and went all out, but the worry on his face did not diminish, and that's because they were still at a stalemate with seven cauldron despite all of them taking turns.
