Paragon of Sin

nd ears of countless individuals.
It was now that people once more realized the absolute danger of offending a skilled alchemist.
They were absolutely terrifying, and their rallying power exceeded any other occupation in existence.

After washing up, Wei Wuyin used his Elemental Wood Qi to heal the pegasus of its wounds.
Gu Hao ’s actions had essentially put it out of commission, but it had a silly smile on its face as it constantly rubbed its head against Wei Wuyin ’s palm.
It, like everyone else, saw the ruthless, brutal, and nightmare-inducing consequence that Gu Hao suffered for harming it.

Its owner had gotten revenge and more, eliminating and making an example out of an entire faction because of its suffering.
As a star-grade beast, it was exceptionally intelligent, but it still couldn ’t notice the truth behind the scene.
Regardless, its happiness couldn ’t be diminished, especially serving such a tyrannical master that brought fear and reverence into the hearts of everyone.

Wei Wuyin quietly healed the pegasus as he thought about the previous events.
’I used the World Quietus Pellets to temporarily cause the world ’s mana to become still, and Astral Light Binding Pellets to seal spiritual energies, but these pellets have a range of effectiveness…if it wasn ’t for the sealed off area that Imperial Combat provided, I would still be weak to Astral Core Realm experts.
After all, they could just leave that area.
Furthermore, I can ’t use these when I ’m in the Astral Core Realm cause they ’ll affect me too. ’

’Haaaa…even though alchemists have pellets for protection, it ’s not as thorough and certain as your own strength. ’

Wei Wuyin ’s thoughts were clear and understood his weaknesses.
While these seventh-grade pellets were useful in handling a lower-phase Astral Core Realm expert in an enclosed space, it was similarly limited.
For example, the Astral Light Binding Pellet would be entirely unable to seal Third Stage experts at that realm due to their overwhelmingly abundant spiritual energies, or those with exceptional spiritual strength that rivaled the weakest at that stage.

He had taken the arm of a Second Stage Astral Core Realm expert and taken the life of another, but pellets were the core reasons behind these feats, and even then, the situation was optimally utilized to be the most effective.
He couldn ’t kill Wu Jiao, and if Gu Hao hadn ’t been sealed in with him, he would ’ve definitely been a fish on the chopping block unless he had eighth-grade pellets at the ready.

In the end, he needed personal strength or strength he controlled.
If it wasn ’t for his exceptionally strong body refined by his Draconic Heart and its Natal Soul, he would be unable to treat Gu Hao like an infant that can only passively receive a lethal beating.

At least this action of his should cause the monkeys to scatter and grow fearful, allowing him to develop as he pleased.
As a Heavenly King, no one could challenge him or his subordinates without their agreement within the sect, so he had no fear of being attacked openly, and merely had to take precautions against hidden schemes.

But what Wei Wuyin didn ’t realize was that his actions had not only cowed the monkeys, but brought about a huge shift in opinion when people thought of him.
The title ’Second King of Everlore ’ started floating around like elusive mist as everyone started to pay extra attention to his actions.

The King of Everlore of the past had caused the development and were the reason behind the subsequent towering statuses of the five hegemonic forces in the Tri-Vision Starfield today.
This was a fact that everyone with an understanding of his history knew! Yet now there was a possibility of a second one being born, and in the Myriad Monarch Sect no less!

Would this be the start of an imperceptible shift in the current world order?
