1145 Yin-Yang Dao Foundation
1145 Yin-Yang Dao Foundation
Wang Wei and Yu Yan lay in a vast green plain, head to head, while their feet pointed in different directions. They looked at the beautiful moon hanging in the sky, with the shining stars accentuating the view.
"Feeling better?" Yu Yan asked.
"Yeah."
"You don't sound too convincing?"
"Now, I can sleep if I want or smile, so I would say I'm feeling better," Wang Wei replied.
"That is progress. Life is all about highs and lows, and this experience is just of the lows," she reassured him.
"How is father and grandpa?"
"Your father finished his Nine Extremity Foundation, so he's in good spirits."
"Is he now trying to attempt Ten Supremacy?"
"Not yet. We've been spending time together."
"It's good to be by each other's side. Do you want to return home?"
"No, it's best to keep the charade going to prevent any trouble," Yu Yan explained. "Plus, it's been good spending time at home with my sister, not to mention the distance has spiced things between me and your father."
"Ewww, too much information."
"You're a grown man; why are you embarrassed? Sex is -"
"No matter how old I am, I do not want to know about your sex life," Wang Wei cut her off. "Plus, you always say I'm your little boy no matter how much I grow or do, but all of a sudden, I'm a grown man? The hypocrisy."
Yu Yan chuckled out loud.
"Grandpa should be out of his seclusion?"
"Yes. He wanted to see you one last time before ascending." Wang Wei grunted. "Is something wrong?"
"I haven't determined my relationship with True Heavenly Dao after what happened, so he should postpone his trip to ensure nothing happens."
Yu Yan frowned, "I don't think he'll listen to you this time."
"What makes you say that?"
"He seems determined to finish this battle to perfect his Dao Heart and start his reincarnation. With how he's been acting, I don't think he will postpone anymore."
"In that case, I can't let him see me."
"That's mean." Yu Yan knew how stubborn her father-in-law could be about certain things, so he might not listen to her son. However, he would never leave without saying goodbye. Wang Wei shrugged. This was the only way to deal with that old man once he became stubborn.
"By the way, do you need my help re-establishing your foundation?" He could tell his mother was also approaching the limit like most of the Emperors of this generation, so he offered his services.
"No, I'll do it myself," Yu Yan replied. "However, you may be able to help me with this?" She handed him an information talisman.
"A Yin-Yang Cultivation Technique? Really?" His lips twitched.
"Don't just focus on the title, but its purpose."
Wang Wei frowned before reading the entire thing. His eyes immediately lit up: "Interesting. You want to use Yin-Yang Duel Cultivation to achieve Ten Supremacy Foundation with Father's help?"
"Yes. I had the idea after Lou Cheng proved the Dao, so I've been studying the Infatuation and Yin-Yang Love Flower. What do you think? Is it feasible?"
Wang Wei took a moment to deduce. "It is, but you'll need a few things. Firstly, it's best to achieve a perfect Nine Extremity during your Foundation Re-Establishment. If your foundations are too far apart in scale, this won't work like for the Yin-Yang Love Flower."
"I figured as much." Yu Yan nodded.
"Second, you will need a medium similar to the Yin-Yang Love Flower. No, it would be best to use the flower itself."
"I feared as much," Yu Yan sighed. The Infatuation Flower was one of those rare herbs with such a specific condition of growth that could be described as extreme. Lou Cheng was lucky to receive one. No, maybe if not for Wang Wei's luck being intertwined with his, he might never have acquired one.

"Let me scan the lower dimension to see if there is still one left." Wang Wei suggested before searching the Endless Void. "I found one, but it's in the early stages of gestation. It might take a while to bloom.""It's fine. I have nothing but time." Yu Yan had a bright smile. As long as she could get her hands on it, everything else did not matter.
"I have a better idea. I'm about to send Wang Qi on another voyage. I'll ask him to try to get his hands on one, or maybe even a completed Yin-Yang Flower," Wang Wei said. "And if that doesn't work, I'll find some unique Qi for you in the Source Qi Space to accelerate the Infatuation Flower process. No, wait, why am I so stupid? I can just find some Qi that will help your technique. There is definitely something that can help with Dao Foundations."
"As reliable as ever," Yu Yan replied with a smile, but inside, she was not too happy. She thought she would have been able to help him more after proving the Dao, but things didn't go as well as she wished to.
Wang Wei's usual perceptiveness did not know to notice his mother's feelings, so he continued. "The last thing you need to watch out for might be tribulation. The rules of Heaven and Earth already make it difficult to re-establish the foundation, and what you're doing will definitely aggravate the situation."
"I expected as much." As far as Yu Yan is concerned, only two people have achieved Ten Supremacy, and her husband will become the third - assuming Dong Lifen did not achieve the alternate method beforehand. So, once she tries to do it in a "crooked" way, Heavenly Dao will be lenient on her due to her innovation and be extra strict on her for cutting corners.
"No, the situation is more severe than you think. The tribulation will definitely be based on a Yin-Yang theme or testing the relationship between you and Father. If something goes wrong..."
"Don't worry. The love between us cannot be faltered or broken apart by a mere Heavenly Dao." Yu Yan sneered while her eyes showed her confidence. She could already deduce what this test would try. Its main focus will probably be their struggle in their younger days when they had to worry about their clan's expectations and the fact they had to fight for the Heaven Will Battle.
However, even back then, Wang Tian was prepared to throw away everything for her and her for him. Luckily, she was smart enough to come up with the pact ideal, but even without it, nothing could have stopped them.
"Your confidence reassures me," Wang Wei replied with a smile. Wang Wei added his input on the technique before handing it to her.
"Have you made a choice?"
"About what?"
"Your 10th revolution bloodline."
"Oh, that." Yu Yan had a significant choice to make: only she achieves the 10th revolution, but the Immemorial Tribulation would, in turn, become manageable to the point she could pass it on her own or follow Wang Wei's path and allow the Yu Clan to gain the benefit. However, she would need Wang Wei's help for the tribulation, but there is a decent chance she might not pass. Then, there is also the worry that their clan will be unable to bear the karmic weight of being a Human Fiendgod Clan.
"I think I'll do it alone," Yu Yan said with a sigh. "I've tried a few divinations, and things do not end well for us if they have such a bloodline, even with the Dao Opening Sect's protection."
"Knowing you, I'm guessing you did not completely give up?"
"That's right. I plan on building up the sect's luck and destiny, so I need some achievements or Memorialized Luck before I ascend."
"That won't be enough."
"I know. That's why I also plan to see if my ancestor is alive in the upper dimension and if we can revive the clan there."
"That's a long-term project," Wang Wei reminded.
"Luckily, we have plenty of time."
"True," Wang Wei nodded. "Any concrete plans?"
"Some, for example, start a cult."
Wang Wei's lips twitched. "How would a cult help? You know what, never mind. Tell me the other ideas."
"You're no fun. Well, there is..."
The two spent the next few hours talking until the sun rose. They had fun as they talked about various subjects, some downright silly. It was the perfect distraction Wang Wei needed.
"Dad and Grandpa should be waiting for us."
"Indeed." Yu Yan exhaled. "The old man will not be happy that you won't see him."
"Old man?"
"He's not here, so who cares if I'm disrespectful?"
"Aren't you worried that I will rat you out?"
"If you do, then I will know that I wasted all that time spoiling you as a kid, and you can leave because you're no longer my favorite child."
"I'm your only child."
"I said what I said, and I meant it too."
Wang Wei chuckled out loud. "You can tell the old man the truth if he gets suspicious. Anyway, I won't see him as long as I don't feel reassured."
"Alright."
"Say hi to Dad for me."
Wang Wei disappeared, returning to the court.
