Xiao Shi felt that he had more than 90% confidence that he could succeed in killing a Sage with this method. He would also face a problem. That was, how could his avatar escape after killing the Sage?

Xiao Shi could foresee it in advance. After his avatar killed the Sage, he would definitely be killed by the Daolord in wrath. “If that’s the case, it’s equivalent to exchanging my clone for a Sage.”

Now that Xiao Shi was here, he did not have to worry about the time needed to regenerate after his avatar died. In the case that the entire Beginner Martial Era had to experience 300 years before the next reset, he had a lot of time to form a clone.

Even if a clone died, he could form a second clone through the Martial Emperor’s Cape

30 days later again and continue to find Sages to exchange for one.

“That means I can kill a Sage every 30 days?” Xiao Shi was deep in thought. Although the killing speed of this method was a little slow, it was not a bad idea if it worked. However, Xiao Shi thought about it carefully. “That’s not right. This method definitely won’t work!”

With how much importance the Beginner Martial Era placed on Sages, he could only use this method once at most. As long as he used this method to successfully kill a Sage, it would definitely alert the other Sages and Daolords. Then, when he used his avatar to challenge the Sages, the Daolord who was paying attention would definitely not give him a chance to kill.

Therefore, this method could only be used once at most. As long as he was tricked once, these Daolords would definitely not be tricked a second time. It was definitely impossible to use this method to continuously kill Sages.

“I have to modify this method to a certain extent.” Xiao Shi was deep in thought.

That day, after the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord told Xiao Shi about the Beginner Martial Era, he parted ways with Xiao Shi here. He looked forward to Xiao Shi becoming the first among them to use the Slaughter Dao. Even though he could not think of a way for Xiao Shi to kill the Sage of the Beginner Martial Era, since he had planted a good karma on Xiao Shi,

He naturally hoped that Xiao Shi could control this Dao. Before he left, the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord gave Xiao Shi another jade slip. He indicated that through this jade slip, They could send voice transmissions to each other. If Xiao Shi encountered any trouble or problems in the future, he could send a voice transmission to him.

Xiao Shi could tell that the other party clearly regarded him as the main “investment” target. It was also a good thing for him to have someone familiar with the Beginner Martial Era answer his doubts at any time.

After they parted ways, Xiao Shi went straight to the seventeen countries of the Wu Dynasty. Even though he already had a rough understanding of the situation of the seventeen countries through the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord, he felt that he still had to personally understand it before the operation.

The bamboo hats on their heads had the ability to change their appearance and temperament. Therefore, he could use all kinds of identities to enter the Wu Dynasty. However, he could not disguise himself as someone from the Wu Dynasty.

Everyone from the Wu Dynasty had a unique mark and aura on their bodies. Moreover, this mark and aura came from the Wu Dynasty’s ninth realm expert. Therefore, even if the bamboo hats on their heads were extremely extraordinary, they could not disguise this mark and aura. They could only enter the Wu Empire as itinerant cultivators outside the Wu Empire.

Xiao Shi only used less than a month to successfully integrate into the Wu Empire. While he continued to gain a deeper understanding of the Wu Empire, he also investigated some information that even the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord did not pay attention to.

For example, the past history of the Wu Empire!

The Beginner Martial Era was a mysterious era. So far, no one knew why the Beginner Martial Era had been exiled from the Tianwu Continent to this alternate space.

For Xiao Shi and the other Sages who had come to the Beginner Martial Era from the future era, their focus was mainly on controlling the Heavenly Dao here. No one would investigate the real reason for the Beginner Martial Era’s exile.

However, Xiao Shi was basically certain. In the three hundred years that the Beginner Martial Era had been reset, it was already the time after they were exiled from the Tianwu Continent to this alternate space.

But what he did not expect was that the martial artists of the Beginner Martial Era had no idea that they were no longer on the Tianwu Continent. Including those Sages and Daolords.

As Xiao Shi couldn’t come into contact with demigods at the moment, he didn’t know the exact situation. However, he realized that the Sages and Daolords here did not know that they had already been exiled to another space-time.

In addition, when Xiao Shi investigated and understood the history of the Beginner Martial Era, he discovered that in the previous Beginner Martial Era, there was no rule that prevented existences above the Sage realm from dying.

This rule was set 60 years ago! This immediately made Xiao Shi think of something.

“Although I don’t know exactly when the Beginner Martial Era was banished from the Tianwu Continent to another space-time, such a reset can clearly only be done in another space-time.

“Then it’s possible that after the Beginner Martial Era was exiled to this alternate space, it immediately began to reset. Therefore, the people in the Beginner Martial Era… don’t know that they are no longer on the Tianwu Continent.

“And that ninth-level martial arts powerhouse set a rule sixty years ago that no one above the Sage Realm was allowed to die.. From this, it can be deduced that sixty years ago, it was very likely that something unknown happened that made this ninth-level martial arts powerhouse set such a rule!”
