# Chapter 3501: Annihilation Method One
This matter had already involved the highest-level situation in the world, and Blood Absolute War God could not afford to be careless.
Zhang Ruochen sank into contemplation, not daring to answer lightly.
After a long while, Zhang Ruochen thought it through and said, "Throughout the entire Destiny Temple, there are only a few who are qualified to challenge Feng Tian. Void Heaven, whose strength is the greatest, but his mind is entirely focused on cultivation. As for now, perhaps he has developed some thoughts about immortality. But overall, he has little interest in controlling the Destiny Temple or wielding the authority of the Hell Realm."
"Nutian Shenzun, like Feng Tian, represents the main war faction, but has never extended his hand beyond Nutian Divine Palace. Moreover, he has not severed his connections with the Underworld Clan and the White Clothes Valley Kong Clan. Based on this alone, even if he wanted to compete for the position of Hall Master, the Three Departments and Twelve Palaces would not have many supporters. I believe he understands this himself, which is why he has no such ambition."
"The Heavenly Fortune Division Venerable is indeed a formidable figure, both as the World Tree Spirit and as a supreme spiritual power. Before his spiritual power breaks through the ninetieth rank, he poses little threat to Feng Tian. Once his spiritual power breaks through the ninetieth rank, he will immediately become Feng Tian's greatest opponent."
"As for whether the Destiny Temple has any other hidden experts, I am not very familiar. But on the surface, if the Destiny Temple were to select a Hall Master, Feng Tian would have the greatest competitive advantage."
Blood Absolute War God said, "The biggest problem is that many people in the Destiny Temple have never even considered selecting a Hall Master. Void Heaven indeed does not care about authority, but if someone wanted to become Hall Master and ride above him, he would undoubtedly be the first to refuse."
"Nutian Shenzun and the World Tree Spirit may also not recognize Feng Tian and willingly submit to her."
Zhang Ruochen nodded, acknowledging this point, and said, "Not to mention Feng Tian's current realm. Even if she reached Fengdu Dadi's level, Void Heaven would still not accept her as Hall Master."
Blood Absolute War God said, "We all know this. Feng Tian cannot be unaware of it."
Zhang Ruochen lowered his voice and said, "Because Feng Tian must take control of all the Fate Essence within Fate Divine Mountain to have a chance at walking the path of an Ancestor. But only the Hall Master has this authority."
"Any existence that has reached the Indestructible Infinite level has fought their way out from among billions of heavenly proud ones. They all possess great ambition and must have the intention to advance to Ancestor. No matter how difficult this path is, even if the chance is less than one in ten thousand, they will still walk it."
In the pot, a gurgling boiling sound could be heard.
Blood Absolute War God picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of lamb from the pot, and tasted it.
"In terms of the Path of Fate, Feng Tian is indeed the number one person in the world today. She condensed the Gate of Death, created her own divine path, Annihilation Method One, and pushed the Path of Death to its extreme. But Fate includes twelve aspects: Life, Death, Calamity, Fortune, Joy, Anger, Misfortune, Auspiciousness, Void, Reality, Past, and Future. Only by comprehending all twelve aspects can one use the Path of Fate to prove the Ancestor path."
Blood Absolute War God did not continue, clearly not believing that Feng Tian could successfully walk the Ancestor path.
Zhang Ruochen filled Blood Absolute War God's cup with divine brew, then filled his own, and revealed a secret, saying, "Cultivating only the Path of Death, Feng Tian cannot reach Indestructible Infinite. Only by reaching the extreme of death, undergoing nirvana and rebirth, and cultivating both life and death, can she break through."
Zhang Ruochen continued, "Xionghai is being refined, Auspiciousness and Satisfaction are already in hand. That strange creature, Xuqiong, subdued in the Void World, may be the key to her comprehending the Path of Void. This is all I know for now."
Blood Absolute War God said, "How long do you think it will take for her to reach Void Heaven's level?"
"I don't know! But if Void Heaven cannot advance further, it is only a matter of time before Feng Tian catches up to him. No one can stop her progress." Zhang Ruochen said.
Blood Absolute War God suddenly smiled and said, "And you say you don't understand Feng Tian?"
"Does this count as understanding?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Blood Absolute War God said, "At least before hearing what you just said, I never imagined Feng Tian's ambition would be so great. If it is for the Ancestor path, then truly no one can stop her progress."
"In the Undying Blood Clan, I, your grandfather, have heard some rumors. One of them claims that Feng Tian has detained you on Fate Divine Mountain for the Earth Cauldron."
"The Earth Cauldron refines all things into origin, and uses origin to generate all spirits."
"But because of the emergence of Heavenly Mother and the threat of the Sword Realm, she did not directly seize the cauldron."
Zhang Ruochen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad that the secret that only he could activate the Nine Cauldrons had not been exposed.
Presumably, outsiders could not know this secret. After all, the cultivators who possessed the Nine Cauldrons were only a few. Even if they could not activate them, they would most likely think it was their own fault, that they had not found the secret of the Nine Cauldrons.
Moreover, Zhang Ruochen did not believe that only he could activate the Nine Cauldrons.
Just like the Witch Cauldron, which had been reforged by the Immovable Bright King Great Venerable, there were ways to activate it. Throughout history, those Ancestors must have had methods to activate the Nine Cauldrons. If they could not activate them, they would reforge them.
Zhang Ruochen actually understood what Blood Absolute War God was trying to say and did not avoid it, saying, "Grandfather's guess is correct. Feng Tian wants to use the Earth Cauldron to rapidly increase her cultivation."
"So that's why you say it's only a matter of time before she catches up to Void Heaven? Can the Earth Cauldron determine all this?" Blood Absolute War God said.
Zhang Ruochen said, "Actually, there is another secret that perhaps no one in the world knows. Feng Tian has obtained the Cauldron of Fate, the Heaven Cauldron!"
Blood Absolute War God was finally moved.
He who obtains the Nine Cauldrons commands the world.
He who obtains the Cauldron of Fate commands the Destiny Temple, is that not enough?
If Feng Tian's strength truly reached a level not inferior to Void Heaven, and she brought out the Cauldron of Fate with a single command, who among the cultivators who believe in fate throughout the world would not follow?
This was the ultimate treasure that could decide everything in one fell swoop!
Blood Absolute War God said, "So you think the Undying Blood Clan should support Feng Tian?"
"Feng Tian's momentum has not yet formed, and there are many variables. There is no need to immediately take sides. Grandfather doesn't need to feel so pressured." Zhang Ruochen picked up the bronze wine cup and said, "Come, let's drink!"
After finishing the cup, Blood Absolute War God looked up at the sky and said, "Luo Yan is here! Perfect timing, I was planning to discuss things with him anyway."
...
Luo Yan Great Emperor ascended Fate Divine Mountain and went directly to the Death Divine Palace.
Luo Sha, Quanzhongsheng, and Dai Xue Queen were led by Blood Butcher to the Great Slaughter War God Palace.
Luo Sha wore a green dress, appropriately dressed, plain and without makeup, not even wearing many accessories, like an unmarried young girl. Upon meeting, she gracefully bowed and said softly, "Greetings, Great Clan Leader and Blood Queen Empress!"
"Princess, no need for formalities. Come sit here, next to me."
Blood Queen smiled and waved to her.
Luo Sha walked with light steps, a faint fragrance lingering, and approached Blood Queen, saying, "Blood Queen Empress must not call me princess. Just call me Sha'er. The Great Clan Leader and Ruochen Divine Lord are here. Sha'er won't sit; I'll just attend to you on the side."
Zhang Ruochen saw her so refined and reserved, knowledgeable and polite, as if she had become a different person, and for a moment, he felt very unaccustomed to it.
"Mother told you to sit, so sit. Otherwise, when the Great Emperor arrives and sees you standing alone, won't he think the Blood Absolute Family is bullying you?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Luo Sha twisted her fingers like orchids, stroking her long hair, wanting to continue being reserved.
But hearing from outside the hall that Bore had come to visit, she no longer insisted and sat directly beside Blood Queen, also on Zhang Ruochen's other side.
Xiao Hei led Bore in together, just in time to see Zhang Ruochen's family enjoying a harmonious scene. Luo Sha was holding an exquisite celadon wine pot, pouring wine for Blood Queen and Blood Absolute War God, seemingly chatting about something happy, with smiles on everyone's faces.
Bore tightened her face, clasped her fists in salute, and said, "Greetings, Great Clan Leader, Blood Queen Empress, and Ruochen Divine Lord."
Zhang Ruochen noticed the subtle change in Bore's eyes and was about to call her over to sit when he heard Luo Sha's melodious voice beside him: "Bore Your Highness has come to pay respects. Is there something important?"
Bore naturally had nothing important to say, and for a moment, the atmosphere became strange.
Xiao Hei came to the rescue, saying, "Bore Your Highness heard that the Great Clan Leader had arrived at Fate Divine Mountain and, having always admired him, came to pay respects."
"I see. But Bore Your Highness seems to have come at an inopportune time. Today is a family banquet." Luo Sha showed an apologetic expression, then added, "Of course, if Bore Your Highness doesn't mind, you are welcome to stay."
Zhang Ruochen frowned, feeling that Luo Sha had gone too far, and was worrying about Bore when...
Bore said, "Since it is a family banquet, Bore will not disturb you. I will come to pay respects another day."
"I'll see you out!"
Zhang Ruochen stood up.
But he saw that Luo Sha had already stood up first, smiling, "How can a Divine Lord see off a deity? Let me do it. I also have some words I want to chat with Bore Your Highness about."
Blood Absolute War God said, "Luo Sha makes a good point!"
Blood Butcher muttered softly, "What a battlefield of Shura. Even the Divine Lord's family scriptures are hard to recite."
After Luo Sha and Bore walked out, Blood Absolute War God said, "With your current status, you can be more casual with the cultivators around you. But you must also have enough authority to make them fear you. How to grasp this distance is worth learning."
Luo Sha and Bore walked side by side, one slightly smiling, the other cold as frost, communicating through divine thoughts.
Luo Sha said, "Bore Your Highness should still keep some distance from Chen Ge. This princess has heard that the Heavenly Fortune Division is already investigating you!"
"Is that so? Thank you for the reminder, Luo Sha Princess. Also, regarding Tianyin Divine Mother's matter, please accept my condolences and don't be too sad. If anyone in the Destiny Temple is still investigating whether you are a member of the Quantity Organization, you can tell me. I can help to some extent." Bore said.
Walking out of the divine hall, Luo Sha stopped and said, "Alright, I'll see you off here. This princess has to go back to accompany Chen Ge and Blood Queen Empress. Later, my father will also come. They must have important matters to discuss. The world is getting more and more chaotic!"
Bore walked straight ahead.
She deeply regretted coming to pay respects on a whim. Perhaps it was because some delusion had arisen in her heart, or perhaps she was longing for something. It was Zhang Ruochen who had given her hope during this time. But Luo Sha's appearance made her wake up again.
Little did Bore know, Luo Sha had also acted against her on a whim, knowing that Zhang Ruochen might be displeased, yet unable to control herself.
If one could be absolutely rational in matters of emotion, it would not be emotion.
"I'll come find you at Nutian Divine Palace later." Zhang Ruochen's voice appeared in Bore's ear.
Luo Yan Great Emperor arrived, and then opened a corner of the Divine Realm World, holding a secret discussion with Zhang Ruochen and Blood Absolute War God.
This secret discussion could not be participated in even by Luo Sha and Blood Queen.
