135 Wentian's Plan

In the 8 months after the Four Sacred Grounds went into the Heaven Secret Basin Realm, after it had closed up again, Xuanyuan Wentian had smuggled Frostmourne and a whole lot of other shit from and around the Frozen Throne. Once back at the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, inside the same secret underground chamber where he stored the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword, Xuanyuan Wentian had Frostmourne laying right next to the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword. Thanks to the dark power of the Lich King residing inside Frostmourne and the fact that it gave of, the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword was able to communicate with the outside world. But because Frostmourne was separated from the Lich King's helmet, which housed its soul, by an entire dimension, communication with the Lich King was very difficult if not impossible. Communication was so difficult, that the most they got out of Frostmourne was the Lich King answering just a handful of questions per day and on some days they wouldn't get anything out of the Lich King.

But this was more than enough for Xuanyuan Wentian to learn about the Lich King and the fact that he came from a completely different world than theirs. Azeroth to be exact. It was this fact that completely shocked Xuanyuan Wentian and the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword, who up until this point were convinced that nothing existed outside of the Primal Chaos Dimension and that it was nothing but calamity and death. When that devil that has been sealed inside the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword was still around during the Primordial Era, the Crimson Crack existed. This was a crack in the wall of the Primal Chaos Dimension and anyone that looked at it and probed it using their powers, would be overcome with a feeling of immense fear. All they could feel was a power unlike any they had felt and it filled them with dread. Even those at the True God stage that came into contact with this power were annihilated.

Imagine their surprise when they find out that not only is there a world beyond the Primal Chaos Dimension, but that they even had someone from another world with them in the room. And so, in the 8 months that followed, Xuanyuan Wentian and the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword learned everything about the Lich King, one tiny morsel of information at a time. They learned about the nature of his powers, the existence of magic and how similar but vastly different it is to Profound Energy. They learned about all of the different races from that world and that the Lich King was originally an orc shaman named Ner'zhul that was created by a powerful demon lord named Kil'jaeden and that his original purpose was to weaken the defenses of Azeroth for the coming invasion of the Burning Legion. But because he didn't want to serve Kil'jaeden and the Burning Legion, he cast Frostmourne, the source of his power, away from the Frozen Throne in hopes of someone finding it and corrupting that person. That victim was Arthas Menethil and when Arthas had arrived at the Frozen Throne, he and Ner'zhul merged and became the Lich King and freed themselves from the influence of the Burning Legion. He told them about how his undead army, the Scourge, had terrorized Azeroth for many years and of his eventual defeat at the hands of Highlord Tirion Fordring and his undead slaying sword, Ashbringer.

When asked how he came to the Primal Chaos Dimension, he told that he did not know. He told them that he remembered his defeat at the hands of Tirion Fordring and when next he opened his eyes, he found himself in a strange world. He came across two people, a woman with purple hair that had ice powers and a man with black hair and red eyes. It was this man who gave him his second defeat. He had used a sword that was far more powerful than Ashbringer was, but he couldn't remember the name. And with this information at hand, Xuanyuan Wentian investigates who the Lich King was talking about and managed to narrow it down to two people, Xia Qingyue and Mesa Uchiha.

One day, when the Lich King was in one of those days that he didn't answer, Xuanyuan Wentian and the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword were discussing everything they learned. "This could be a problem for us later down the line. If this Mesa Uchiha has defeated someone like the Lich King, then I do not believe for a second that he is dead. He is definitely stuck with Yun Canghai inside the Heaven's Might Soul Suppressing Formation and I am certain that it will be a matter of time before he gets out of there. But more importantly, if it is true that he has a sword more powerful than Ashbringer, than he could be very well end up causing us a lot of trouble."

"I agree, but nobody knows about the Lich King and more importantly, that we have his sword. Wentian, keep everything we have learned to yourself, do NOT tell a single soul what we have learned here. Investigate Mesa Uchiha and learn everything you can about him. If what you said is true, then it will only be a matter of time before he resurfaces again. I too have a feeling that he will be a hindrance to our plans, but I still want to know what else he has on him because I have a feeling that that devil sword we've been looking for is in his possession. We still have the element of surprise on our side and we can use it to our advantage." Said the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword.

And with that Xuanyuan Wentian and the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword started scheming their next move. They still needed Fen Juechen to accept his devil blood in order to break the last seal on the sword and take control of him. But once that was done and that devil spirit was free to go, they would transfer him into Frostmourne seeing as how it is much more powerful than the original that he inhabited. But because they were sure that Mesa was still alive and well inside the Heaven's Might Soul Suppressing Formation, they investigated him. And surprising absolutely no one, they came up with little to no information on him. They didn't where he came from and where he was born, who his parents or other family was, they came up empty trying to research any Uchiha clan or family. It was like he just appeared out of thin air.

(A.N.: Oh Wentian, you have no idea who you are messing with. But please, do go on! Keep digging your grave, it's gonna be a lot of fun seeing you fall into it. 😈)

Seeing as how they didn't find out any background information on Mesa, they moved on to what they already knew and what they found out shocked them. All kind of weird powers, abilities and weapons that they heard of before. The one that obviously exited them the most was the Boosted Gear. But the one that terrified them was Mjolnir. More specifically, it terrified the devil spirit inside the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword. Because apparently, during the Age of the Gods, when the gods and the devils were at war with each other, the thunder god Thor, with his hammer Mjolnir, single handedly killed more devils than every other god combined. He was the one that the devils feared and hated the most, right after the Heaven Emperor Mo E, because he was the one who at the time was the owner of the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword. But because usage of the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword drained his life force, Mo E ended up dying pretty early in the war. While the devils were celebrating the death of their most hated enemy, their celebrations were cut short when Thor entered the stage with his hammer. He was like an unstoppable force of nature that killed so many devils that he was seen as the champion of the gods. The devils feared him so much that every time they battled the gods, they would turn tail once Thor showed up.

The devil spirit inside the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword, being the son of the King of Eternal Night Devil Clan told Xuanyuan Wentian about the time that his clan encountered Thor all alone. In their arrogance, they had assumed that their massive numerical advantage would finally allow them to kill their greatest enemy. But they were very, very wrong. The devil spirit told Xuanyuan Wentian about the slaughter of his clan that he witnessed at the hands of the thunder god and his accursed hammer. He himself had only escaped with his life through the skin of his teeth because his clansmen had sacrificed themselves to ensure his escape. And ever since then, he feared the thunder god and his hammer more anyone or anything else. The thunder god's onslaught was so unstoppable that nothing they threw at him could even slow him down, let alone stop him. When the tide of the war was turning against them and it became apparent that victory was no longer theirs, they turned to the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations in sheer desperation. But since even the devils had feared the destructive power of the Evil Infant's Wheel, they had sealed it away for a long, long time, causing it accumulate lots and lots of yin energy. And when the devils, in their desperation to win the war, unsealed it, it immediately came to live and took control of the Eternal Night Devil King as its host and released its terrible poison upon the universe, the Myriad Tribulations Poison. It was this poison that finally killed the mighty thunder god, as well as all of the other gods and devils.

With the last remaining vestiges of his strength, Thor threw Mjolnir out into the universe and proclaimed for all to hear with his dying breath: "Whosoever holds this hammer, if they be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor."

After this, the gods and the devils started to die off in droves, leaving behind their inheritances and everything else for those of the future to inherit. The Evil God had been lucky to survive it longer than anyone else, but he knew that his time was coming to an end. And as for the Evil Infant's Wheel itself, he sealed it away along with its host, the Eternal Night Devil King and his son, who the Eternal Night Devil King later sealed inside the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword in order to preserve his life.

But since they knew that Mesa was no god, or anywhere close to having the strength of one, they knew that his use of Mjolnir wasn't anywhere as powerful or as terrifying as Thor's was. So with that, they devised a plan to instigate a war between him and the Burning Heaven Clan since both him and the Burning Heaven Clan's young master, Fen Juecheng, wanted the Blue Wind Empire's princess, Cang Yue. And in the meantime, ensuring that Fen Juechen was not caught in the crossfire. And when Mesa and the Burning Heaven Clan finally clashed, he would sit back and observe Mesa.

And that bring us to today. Mesa still sitting in a random tree in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, having read all the mind of everyone involved and knowing what the hell is going on.

"Alrighty, then! Wentian has been getting a bit too nosy for his own good. But I guess the fault also lies with me. I shouldn't have put that fake story of Thor and Mjolnir inside the mind of that devil spirit. But no worries, I can always change it. And it's a good thing he still doesn't know that the Boosted Gear houses the soul of Ddraig." Said Mesa to himself as he changed the memories of Xuanyuan Wentian and of that devil spirit. Now, they don't know about Mesa having used a very powerful holy sword to vanquish the Lich King, but they still know about Mjolnir. But according to the devil spirit, the thunder god was just a very minor god and that there is nothing for them to worry about should they face off against it once they had transferred his soul into Frostmourne. But they were still interested in Mesa because of Mjolnir and had set up this entire war between him and the Burning Heaven Clan in order to observe him and motivate Fen Juechen to seek out and accept his devil heritage.

When he was done, Jasmine and Ophis came out of the Sky Poison Pearl. Apparently, they could sense him getting really, really mad for a second before he suddenly calmed down. Looking outside they saw him sitting in a tree using the Mind Stone and they came out to ask what was going on.

"Oh, hey there you two. I was just reading some minds. Because apparently, the Burning Heaven Clan have staged a coup d'état, put Cang Shuo on the throne and kidnapped Cang Yue to force her into a marriage with Fen Juecheng." Said Mesa explaining to them the entire story of what he found out during his investigation.

Listening to this story, getting increasingly madder, Jasmine said. "Mesa, I hope for her sake that you're going to free her and severely punish the Burning Heaven Clan. No woman deserves to be put in a marriage with someone she hates."

"Obviously I am going to free her and wipe out the Burning Heaven Clan, but I am also gonna play Xuanyuan Wentian's little game for now." Said Mesa with a smirk.

"But I am more surprised that you already know about Cang Yue."

"Of course I know. But I had already expected this. Strong men tend to have multiple wives, just like my father and the Kings of other Royal-Rank Star Realm. My father had my mother and multiple other wives, but he always ignored them and he ignored us as well. When my mother was kidnapped by the Moon God Realm, he didn't lift a finger to help her out and said he would rather let her die than give the Moon God Realm what they want. When my brother went there to try and rescue my mother, she committed suicide because she didn't want to endanger my brother's life. Ever since that day, my hatred for my father started to grow from that day on. It wasn't until I found out Blood Sacrifice Ritual and what we found out when we read his mind that my hatred for him had reached its zenith." Said Jasmine, recounting her relationship with her father with so much hatred and anger.

"So to make a long story short, I had already expected that you would have multiple wives. Because let's be honest, there is nobody in the entire Primal Chaos Dimension that can measure up to you. But what I cannot forgive in the slightest, is if you took several wives only to end ignoring them, never giving anyone of them any attention and never helping out anyone of them when they need you. So Mesa, if you do that to me, Ophis or any wives you currently have or will have, then I will never ever, ever, EVER forgive you for that." Said Jasmine with great conviction.

"I won't Jasmine, I won't. Before I came to this world, I was all alone. And now, I have all of you. I would never do that any one of you. But thank you anyway for telling me." Said Mesa as he stood up and got ready to move out.

Since the Burning Heaven Clan held Emperor Cang Wanhe hostage and kidnapped Cang Yue, with the express purpose of slaying the other if Mesa came to rescue one. Though a good plan, since any normal person couldn't be in two places at the same time, it wasn't a good plan when it came to Mesa himself. After making a few dozen clones, they all went on their way to go to the Imperial Palace, free the Emperor, defeat Cang Shuo's lackeys inside the palace and capture him. And hit the Burning Heaven Clan same time, free Cang Yue, eradicate it, leave Fen Jeuchen alive and take Fen Juecheng for some… special treatment.

"What the hell is that." When all of the clones had left, one stayed behind looking towards one of the mountains that the forest of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range surrounds.

"Is that a… cave? Why haven't I seen that here before?"

Up there on that mountain, tucked away tucked away in a small valley, surrounded by steep cliffs was a cave. When all of the Mesa clones flew over it, nobody noticed it, except for one of them. Curious to see what it was all about, Mesa descends towards it. Walking in, it was pitch black, but using his Phoenix Flames, he creates these floating balls of fire to help him illuminate his way in. Every 25 meters or so, he would cast the floating flame again and again and this went on for a while until he reached a massive double door that blocked any further progress into the cave. After casting a few other floating flames, he sees that these double doors are blocked with these massive wooden slats.

Looking at this door filled him with a strange feeling that he had to go through it no matter what. Even if he knew that it didn't make any kind of sense, this feeling kept gnawing at the back of his mind. Deciding that right now was not the time for him to open some random magic door in the middle of nowhere while his loved ones where being held against their wills, he simply left a Flying Raijin kunai on the ground in front of this door and got ready to leave.

But right before he left, he saw looked above the door in case there was something. And there, he could see something resembling writing. So casting another floating flame, he steered it above the door and saw that there was a riddle written there.

< I am something and cannot be divided by nothing. For if you do, what shall I be >
