Path of Absolute Transcendence

With the help of his learning talent and parallel thinking ability, Kai began to brainstorm.

His brain worked like a supercomputer, and in an hour, he understood the first formation.

With enough confidence, Kai continued his work. He didn\'t have enough time to steal the fragment since the worship ceremony could end at any time and the guardians could arrive.

After three hours of brainstorming, Kai understood the workings of the entire formation.

\'Now, I should start breaking the formation; I don\'t have enough time.\'

With his understanding of the formation, Kai ignored the fake lines and began to find the weakness of the formation.

Every formation has some weak point, and by finding that point, a formation can be used against the user.

Most of the formation masters tend to hide their weaknesses and make them look like perfect ones.

But perfection isn\'t allowed to exist under the heavens, not even in formations.

Kai found the weakness of the first formation very soon. He used his manipulation ability to exert the surrounding energy to break the formation.

Kai didn\'t want to leave a trace by doing it himself. He even didn\'t withdraw his Will Power outside of his body; instead, he just resonated with them.

The first formation broke like shattered glass. With a smile on his face, Kai searched for the weakness of the second formation.

After finding the weakness, he broke the formation with the same method.

In the meantime, Kai checked on the ceremony using his astral projection.

Kai can see using his astral body, and it isn\'t limited by distance.

\'Wow, they didn\'t find any difference between me and the sand spirit. It seems my guess is correct.\'

The astral body is capable of perfectly mimicking without any flaw. When Kai formed the astral body, he used the same wavelength as Dayan, so it perfectly replicated that wavelength.

\'Innate Treasure is really heaven-defying. Even in its broken state, it is capable of deceiving a saint realm cultivator.\'

Even the king, who was in the worship ceremony, didn\'t find anything suspicious. There are also other saint realm cultivators standing behind him.

The sand spirits are kneeling with their heads facing the ground in front of the king. The king just sat on his throne, but behind him was a picture of a huge plant.

\'So it was the treasure that caused the mutation on such a huge scale.\' Kai concluded after seeing the picture.

\'Is this plant still inside the treasury, or did the king use it for himself? I hope it is still in the Treasury.\'

Kai needed to obtain that treasure for himself to create a variant physique, so he hoped for its existence.

Kai found the weakness of the third formation and soon broke it without hesitation.

\'Only one more to go, and I can confirm the existence of that plant.\'

Kai started searching for the weakness of the last one at a faster rate; he wasn\'t able to contain his anxiety.

But the fourth one wasn\'t easy; it was the core of the entire formation. The weakness was well hidden, and it took a lot of time for Kai to locate it.

Kai immediately broke the formation. But at the same time, he heard the announcement.

"My people, thank you for coming to this worship ceremony. I hope you will also come to this ceremony like this next year." The king of the sand kingdom announced the end of the ceremony and told about his wish.

"We obey the order from the king."

"We obey the order from the king."

All the sand spirits kneeled on one knee and said simultaneously.

\'Oh shit! Why did they end this ceremony faster than last time? Is it because of my bad luck?\' Kai cursed

The ceremony will take more than 12 hours to complete at normal times. But this year, they completed the trial within six hours.

Kai soon opened the gate and went inside the Treasury. He decided to gamble. He didn\'t want to waste another year in this sand kingdom.

Kai didn\'t even bother to check for any other treasures and went to find the location of the fragment and that plant.

He knew the plant must have been born beside the fragment to protect itself. If it exists, it is the only possible location.

With the guidance of his fragment, Kai arrived at the location.

\'Wow, the king didn\'t use that plant. But why didn\'t he use it for himself and store it inside the Treasury?\'

Kai thought after seeing the plan. It was a Tier 5 heavenly treasure, as he suspected.

Kai used his Will Power and Cosmic Awareness to inspect the treasure and soon found the answer.

\'That guy is insane; how did he come up with this plan?\'

The king is now collecting the faith of his people to help the treasure advance to Tier 6. He wanted to use it after it broke through and obtained unimaginable power.

\'Is he really a genius or some delusional guy? How can he be so stupid?\'

To advance or break through into Tier 6, destiny was the key to a breakthrough. That is the reason the battle of destiny occurs every generation.

It was an absolute rule, and no one was capable of breaking it. But the king is using the faith of his people to achieve the same results.

Although faith energy has the property to nurture things, it wasn\'t enough to break through a realm, and this is not his only plan.

The king is controlling every citizen of his kingdom without their knowledge. He is subtly manipulating them to obtain their faith energy.

\'Wow, he is more ruthless than I thought.\'

Kai already had some doubts seeing the weird behavior of people from the kingdom, but he didn\'t expect the king to entirely deprive their free will.
