'A Three-Eye Devil,' thought Di Tian as he analyzed Wrath. He once was a Three-Eye Devil, so he knew the species quite well. They were once one of the most powerful subspecies of the Nine Devil God World, known for their soul and comprehension talents and the unique ability of their third eyes.

However, he could also tell she was primarily human.

Di Tian analyzed the other two: Greed was a tin man with heavy bags under his eyes. He looked ordinary, like the kind of person that is not easily noticeable in a large crowd. Upon closer look at him, his face seemed harder to recognize or remember; it was like he was naturally camouflaged in the surrounding.

'A Cloaking Devil,' thought Di Tian with a slight surprise. Cloaking Devils were one of the weakest species of the devil race. However, they were excellent at camouflaging and blending in. As such, the devil race would send them into other World Communities to gather information and prepare for invasion.

Pride was an ordinary young man with short hair dressed in all black. Di Tian could tell from his bloodline he was a Misery Devil, a subspecies that enjoyed corrupting souls; they would use pain and misery to force other races to become mad and commit atrocities.

In any world, if there is a sudden increase in women killing their children, fathers assaulting their daughters, sons selling their mothers, and other cruel things, it's most likely the world of a Misery Devil.

While Di Tian was calmly assessing these people, Wrath had prepared for this battle. Oddly though, she did not use the Devil Retribution Sword.

[Heaven Hating Stab]

A black light flew toward Di Tian, containing an unparallel amount of hatred that would destroy the mind of any lesser man. However, he was not a lesser man.

"My hatred for Heavens is beyond what your pitiful attack could fathom."

The attack disappeared before him, and Wrath spewed a mouthful of blood; she received a backlash because Di Tian's hatred was beyond her bearing.

"Wrath!" yelled Pride.

"I'm fine."

He waved his hand to manifest a white light that instantly healed her injuries. While he healed her, Greed tried to buy them time–even though his opponent had the demeanor he did not care.

[Tyrant Supresssiong Fist]

His thin body displayed an ungodly amount of power with this one punch. DI Tian calmly raised his hand to block the manifestation of the punch. Then, another power followed: an intense pressure weighted on him–a pressure that would make the gravity of a supermassive black hole look like child's play.

'Huh? His Dao reminds me of Wang Chang's Overlord Dao.' His Sleeper gathered information about the previous generation and learned much about Wang Wei's family when he researched the latter.

'His strength is as weak as him too.' He could tell pride was a top powerhouse in the Quasi-Emperor Realm, but he did not come close to 1-Leaf strength.

Di Tian's attention suddenly diverted to Pride. The latter waved his hand to manifest two small swords that entered Greed and Wrath's body.

[Heaven Eradicating Slash]

This attack was not a simple slash but a tornado of sword energy with the power to eradicate everything in its path.

[Tyrant's Kingdom]

A world suddenly appeared above Greed's head. The world was beautiful, with golden architecture to suggest its wealth and prosperity. There were billions of people in the kingdom, with healthy visages and wearing luxurious clothes. However, none of these individuals looked happy; fear was deeply engrained in their eyes, showing it was not a pleasant thing to be the citizen of a tyrant.

Di Tian generated a force field from his body that easily blocked these two attacks. However, the field shook slightly after the sword tornado.

'1-Root and peak 1-Leaf strength,' he analyzed before looking at Pride.

"Support Dao? How is a person supposedly the embodiment of pride lowering itself to become a support? I understand. A Pride Dao that reverts Yin and Yang. You're more valuable than I thought. Let's see how much you can do."

He looked at Greed and uttered, "Suppress." 

Bang!

Greed knelt on the ground as an unknown force suppressed him to the ground, rendering him incapable of moving an inch. And with each passing second, the pressure increased, crushing his bones and organs.

"Pride," yelled Wrath, and the latter acted with the utmost haste.

[Stamina Boost. Regenerating Boost. Potential Boost]

Greed's power rose to the peak of 3-Leaf. Meanwhile, Wrath reached the early stage of 2-Root.

[Eradicating Soul of Heaven]

Her sword attack was not a physical one but directly attacked the mind and the soul; its purpose was to forcefully erase the memories, spirit, and intelligence of her opponent, rendering a blank state. Usually, this attack is to either make the opponent lose their battle experience or even make them unable to use their powers due to the lack of memory.

Another use of this attack is to turn enemies into friends. A person with no memories also has no personality or understanding of the world; they are a blank slate that can be molded into anything–even a friend.

"It's pointless to confront me through the soul," commented Di Tian. He is a master of the soul, and with his new Emperor Soul, few people could affect his mind and soul.

He was right. Wrath felt her attack was similar to throwing a stone in the ocean. No, it was worse since she did not even make any waves.

'Is the disparity so large?' she thought, a little frustrated. Meanwhile, Di Tian was in a good mood.

'Pride is excellent for any army or faction. His Dao would excel in any large war. The only place he is lacking is his strength.' The latter's power was similar to Greed.

'Greed's Tyrant Dao is perfect to lead a majestic and unmatched legion. I have some of the inheritance of the Great Qin Dynasty. As long as he learns from it, he will truly be an unrivaled general.'

The Qin Legions were one of the best–if not the best–of history; they were a nightmare for the demon race during the Ancient Emperor Era.

'Finally, there is Wrath. Her strength more than met my expectations. With her talent, she will shine even more after going through my training.'

His eyes shone. 'Maybe, I can wash Karma for her so she could prove the Dao. After such an Emperor under my command would make searching for the Limit Breaker easier.'

The only issue he had to worry about was whether there would be some complications with enslaving a Great Emperor. When they undergo a baptism of the Great Dao Source and forge their Emperor's Soul and Body, any restrictions on them might disappear.

'Should I slowly forge a relationship with her? No, I cannot trust her. The best course is to control the other devils. Since she cares about them so much, I can control her through them.'

Wrath's body trembled as she felt a terrible future awaited her.

"Do it now," she ordered. Three metal objects floated from the bodies of these three.

'A Chaos Treasure? It seems to be a unique interconnected one.'

The three Choas Treasures fused to form a triangle floating above Wrath's head. Then, something came from Greed and Pride's body and entered her body. As they fell to the ground, completely drained and tired, the emotion knowns as hope flashed in their eyes.

Wrath's aura climbed to a realm beyond her limit.

'4-Root? It's not enough.' She gritted her teeth before swinging her sword. And this time, Di Tian did not directly block the attack. Instead, he easily evaded.

'Her Dao now has a more overbearing and domineering aura,' analyzed Di Tian as he casually evaded. Then, he clenched his fist and punched.

[Decay of Death]

Wrath's body flew hundreds of meters before crashing into the group. Besides her head, her lower body had decayed and died. However, this was not the end for her. A whistle light manifested from her head before her body instantly regrew.

'So, she now has both their Daos. No, maybe the original Seven Sins Dao belongs to someone else who divided it into different parts,' thought Di Tian, trying to remember if he knew any devils who used such a Dao.

'He could have killed me with that attack if he wanted.' She realized the overwhelming difference between each root. Even with her tactic, her strength was not enough. But she did not give up. 

"I've tested your abilities, and you met my qualifications. So, enough playing around."

A black and white wheel appeared to belong his feet before descending on Wrath. Immediately, she knew she could not escape this technique. Nevertheless, her eyes remained firm and defiant.

Bang!

A hand appeared and gently waved, destroying the wheel.

"Wang Wei," said Di Tian with a frown.

"I can't let you have her or the other devil."

"Since when were you such a busybody?"

"Busybody? Do I need a reason to prevent my competitor from becoming more of a nuisance?"

"It does not take much brain to see you have some relationship with this devil." Based on Wrath's reaction after he appeared, Di Tian could analyze so much.

"I resent these accusations. I'm simply here to prevent you from getting a powerful general."
