Chapter 481 -14: The Misled Great Grandmasters
Someone soon arrived at Xu Qu’s home, and it was a familiar face, Huangtian.
However, Huangtian’s expression was not good.
“What has happened, Huangtian? As a national leader, you should not be so agitated. Sit down, have a cup of tea, and calm yourself.”
After greeting Xu Qu, Huangtian sat down.
“Sir, it’s not that I want to be agitated, but a major incident has occurred, and I hope to get your help.”
“What happened?”
“Not long ago, many Great Grandmasters sensed changes in the world and felt it was the time for a breakthrough, so they went into seclusion…”
Wang Sheng did not express his opinion but signaled Huangtian to continue.
“Normally, it wouldn’t be anything unusual, as seclusion is common for those at the level of Great Grandmaster. However, this time the number of people in seclusion was large, which drew our attention, but soon a problem arose.”
“According to reports, over these past twenty or so days, thirty Great Grandmasters have fallen, and dozens have been seriously injured. Only then did I realize there was a problem.”
The things Huangtian spoke of might not be severe individually, but collectively, the problem was immense.
In less than a month, over thirty Great Grandmasters had perished.
It’s known that the total number of Great Grandmasters worldwide is barely ten thousand.
If this trend continues, it will definitely lead to a huge disaster.
“Have you investigated the cause?”
“I’ve already had people looking into it, but the trend is still expanding, and there have been no results from the investigation. It all seems like normal seclusion, so I came to seek your help first.” Huangtian knew there would be invasions from other worlds, so he valued every great power.
Thus, in the process of unification, he tried to recruit whoever he could.
Now, with deaths and disabilities occurring, he was naturally anxious.
However, before Wang Sheng could speak, Zhu Xiao said, “I might know something. Almost a month ago, around the time Ye Sheng’s physical constitution fully awakened, I felt a premonition that I could make a breakthrough to a higher level. But I knew that this feeling was not normal. I had just made a breakthrough to Martial Saint not long ago; how could I break through again? So I didn’t try it, but I didn’t pay much attention to it. Now, it seems that feeling was not normal…”
“So it wasn’t just me experiencing this?” Huangtian suddenly realized, “I’ve been busy with many things, and though I sensed it too, I didn’t try it because of the workload. Now, it seems that may have saved my life?”
Huangtian’s responsibilities were numerous, and the abnormal feeling had less impact on him than it did on Zhu Xiao.
Wang Sheng then fell into thought.
Clearly, on the surface, it seemed that an erasure in the Spirit World had caused the misperception, inducing these Great Grandmasters towards a breakthrough by mistake.
But was it really an accident?
He was somewhat doubtful inside.
And the first suspect he thought of was the world of Kui Tian Monarch.
Soon, he got an answer.
The World Will appeared again and answered his question.
“My capabilities are insufficient; I was influenced by the enemy, causing this consequence.”
Wang Sheng did not expect that the World Will had been keeping an eye on him all along, but this also allowed him to find the answer.
“I’ve roughly understood what has happened, and this incident is indeed a conspiracy.”
“Sir, is it the enemy?” Huangtian quickly responded, guessing who had acted.
“Yes, it is the enemy from another world. When the influence of the Destiny Dynasty faded, they tampered with things, causing all the Great Grandmasters about to breakthrough to have a misperception. However, have you not tried waking up those Grandmasters in seclusion?”
“Sir, the locations of those Grandmasters in seclusion are secretive, and each is in a deadly phase. If we forcibly awaken them, the consequences might not be much better than a failed breakthrough, so I request your help.”
Huangtian had no other options.
Facing a presence that could influence the world, he felt powerless.
“I understand. I will solve this problem. Continue to investigate and see if it’s merely about guiding the seclusion.”
Although both Zhu Xiao and Huangtian said it was about guiding the seclusion, who knew if there were other impacts?
“Alright, Sir.”
Even without instructions, he would have done it.
If there wasn’t an answer, even if those Grandmasters were awakened, they might not dare to attempt a breakthrough in the future.
“Zhu Xiao and Xu Qu as well, you both should check yourselves to see if there’s anything wrong. Don’t leave any lingering issues.”
Both Zhu Xiao and Xu Qu nodded solemnly.
They understood the gravity of the situation.
Soon, the group dispersed, and Wang Sheng returned to his own place of seclusion.
“I need to wake up those Grandmasters; continuing like this will also be a loss to me.”
His Spirit World needed a large number of strong individuals.

If these Grandmasters perished, his harvested spiritual power would decrease, which was unacceptable to him.
“But to solve this issue…”
Wang Sheng thought for a moment; the most effective method would be to use the Spirit World.
“Waking them while not causing injury, so my power must also take part. Within the coverage of the Spirit World, I can extend spiritual power over each individual, offering protection. Even if their cultivation is forcibly terminated, they will only sustain some injuries, which they can recover from, and I can also determine if they can really make a breakthrough!”
Having thought of a method, Wang Sheng did not hesitate and immediately started to act.
The first step was to search for the various Grandmasters in seclusion…
Meanwhile, the outside situation was not great either.
Families with Great Grandmasters were engulfed in tension, and Datong had already released a message stating that the vast majority of the Grandmasters currently in seclusion were problematic. It was unclear whether they would make a breakthrough, but more likely, they might die.
Most crucially, Datong had provided evidence.
They also advised, if it was possible to awaken them without consequences, to do so immediately.
But as Huangtian said, awakening was not so easy.
Great Grandmasters were the foundation of each power; if they emerged, the power would significantly fall. All families who were initially rejoicing about their ancestors’ impending breakthroughs fell into silence.
This was not good; a major problem might arise!
“Do you think what the Datong officials said was true?”
