After destroying the manifestation of Fenrir in the river of death, he created another one in the second heaven to continue grazing for him. Then he returned his attention to Monarch Giant Zombie.
He had just finished explaining the plan to the rank 8 death cultivator, so it was time to execute the plan.
But before they could start, Monarch Giant Zombie bowed his head and said, "My lord. If I may ask, why are you doing this? Why are you helping me?"
Loki smiled and said, "There are high and low reasons for this. The high-level reasons are beyond you for now. If you manage to create your Supreme Metac, I’ll tell you."
"As for the low-level reason, it is mainly to weaken the Four Directions Sect. I can kill you to weaken the sect. But that’s the short-sighted approach."
"Instead of simply killing you, I decided to help you so that you can become an eternal thorn in the side of the Four Directions Sect. So not only will I weaken the Four Directions, but I will also have succeeded in creating a problem for them that will divert their attention and power."
After hearing this explanation, Monarch Giant Zombie bowed and said, "I appreciate the faith you have in me, so I swear to do my best to fulfill your expectations for me. I will try to become a thorn in the side of the Four Directions Sect if it is the last thing I do."
His voice was sincere, and this wasn’t a facade. He truly believed that he was being helped so that he could become a source of trouble for the Four Directions Sect.
As someone who grew up in the Four Directions Sect, he knew that there was no such thing as free help. If someone is helping him, he is smart enough to expect that they have something to gain from it. This was why he asked to know why he was being helped.
Fortunately, the answer he got for his question was less than satisfactory. From that explanation, he believed that killing him would weaken the sect.
He also believed that helping him would turn him into a thorn in the side of the Four Directions Sect. This isn’t because he is naive. It is because he has seen something like this before.
He has experience with this kind of thing. He has lived for a long time and was there when the previous rank 8 forging cultivator gained the help of the Myriad Phenomenon Sect. After that, the rank 8 forger became the Sword Lord.
Because of that experience, he was quick to believe that this giant wolf was a Dao Lord who had chosen him as the next candidate to help him so that he could turn against the Four Directions Sect.
Of course, he wasn’t blinded by this belief. He also considered that this Dao Lord might only be helping him to create a Supreme Metac so that they could take his Supreme Metac. After all, the Dao Lord of the Four Directions Sect seemed to have done something similar to the Myriad Phenomenon Sect.
But whenever he considered this possibility, he would say to himself, ’It is not like I have a choice here. I can only fight for the slim chance of survival.’
With his mind made up, he said to the Dao Lord of the Martial Body Sect, "Please, let us begin, my lord."
In response, Loki nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very well."
Then he took one of the 12 Divine Metacs lying about into his hand. From there, the Divine Metac went into the core of his Cave Heaven, where it was converted into a rank 8 Divine Position.
After creating the Divine Position, he sent it out of his Cave Heaven through the manifestation. So the Divine Position appeared in the manifestation’s hand. Then the manifestation gave the Divine Position to Monarch Giant Zombie.
Monarch Giant Zombie accepted the Divine Position and fused with it. When he saw how well it worked, he was willing to give up his main Divine Metacs to convert them into rank 8 Divine Positions.
Just like that, Loki replaced all of his Divine Positions with rank 8 Divine Positions. He also added an extra five Divine Positions for Giant Zombie to use.
By the time he was done, Giant Zombie now had 8 Divine Positions to work with. Now the rest was up to Giant Zombie.
He said to the rank 8 death cultivator, "The next step is to have a goal in mind. This goal will be the final product."
"I expect that you have a lot of ideas for which pathway you want to create. Whatever one you choose, make sure that you have prepared rules for the operation of the pathway. Also, ensure that the rules are internally logical and externally compatible with the operation of the world."
Since the Supreme Metac being created was going to belong to him at the end of the day, he didn’t hesitate to give tips and lessons to help Monarch Giant Zombie create an exceptional product.
Monarch Giant Zombie nodded his head in understanding as he listened. He took everything he heard seriously because the things Loki was saying were things no one had ever said to him.
Even though he knew how to create a Supreme Metac, he had never done it before, so he didn’t know any tricks to make the process more efficient or any mistakes to avoid. He lacked experience with this kind of thing, so he listened attentively.
And when he didn’t understand something, he didn’t hesitate to ask. The part he found especially tricky was the part about rules. So he asked questions about that.
He said, "My lord, what do you mean by rules being internally logical and externally compatible?"
Loki, being the helpful and generous person that he was known to be, answered the question, saying, "The rules can be simple, or they can be complicated, but they must be correct."
