Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1146 Ark

1146 Ark

Wang Wei sat on his throne, and after a few seconds, a figure rose from a shadow spot before him. ”Master.”

”Wang Ju, update me.”

”Yes. First, President Tian Wenyan is dead, and the court has conquered the commerce hubʼs territory.”

”That should be expected.” The manʼs effort was nothing but a last-ditch effort, so he was bound to die no matter what. ”Do you know why he never surrendered to us?”

”Someone he loved dear died during the war, so he blamed us, blamed you.”

”Is that so?” No matter how cunning or brilliant someone is, they will always have some sort of emotional fetters - unless they walk the path of indifference. ”Do we know who... never mind. Continue.”

”With Tong Ruobingʼs talisman, we have hunted down most of the Abyss Gap branches, but a few successfully escaped despite our well-coordinated efforts.”

”Escape? Where?”

”Back to the gap.”

”Didnʼt we have people blocking and supervising the entrance?”

”Those people suddenly disappeared, and no matter the method we tried, we could not locate them. So, the best conclusion is that they somehow returned. We are still investigating the details but making little to no progress so far.”

”I see.” Wang Weiʼs gaze penetrated the endless space to spy at the Abyss Gap. ʼIs something about to happen before I actively deal with this thing? Thatʼs annoying.ʼ He wanted to be careful and eliminate the problem after becoming an Everlasting Empyrean.

”You donʼt need to put too much emphasis on them anymore,” Wang Wei ordered. The Abyss Gap was his problem, so it was best for the Fate Shadow Guards to focus their attention and resources elsewhere.

”What else?”

”Sir, have you heard of the Golden God?” Wang Ju asked.

”Whatʼs that?”

”Itʼs a new force that has risen during your retreat.”

”New force? Are they important enough for you to bring up?”

Wang Ju secretly looked at her master. She had the nagging suspicions that the Golden God was another pawn his master threw out for whatever plans. The latterʼs rise was too sudden and fast, and his unparalleled strength could not come out of nowhere. It made sense the Commerce Hub and the Spirit Genesis Sect had such power, but this Golden God? His strength was inexplicable and so random that the entire thing screamed a plot. However, since the sect master did not want to tell the truth, he must have his reason.

”In just a short period, the Golden God has conquered more than 1400 World Communities, even more than us.”

”Are you serious?” Wang Wei asked with a somber tone.

”Yes. The Endless Void is currently divided into three sections: us, the Golden God, and everyone in between who has yet to be conquered.”

”Is that so?”

The feeling that this was all a ploy intensified after seeing her masterʼs reaction. However, Wang Ju did not ask and continued:

”Thatʼs the current situation. The good news is with this new enemy, the remaining world communities were forced to establish a court as a way to condense their military power. So, our objectives could be said to be two-third?”

”Two-thirds?”

”The Golden God does not allow the existence of courts. Instead, he forced all conquered worlds to worship him.”

”Well, two-thirds is not a bad result,” Wang Wei nodded.

”So, what should we do about him?” Wang Ju asked.

”Donʼt worry about it. Iʼll have a court meeting to discuss things. More importantly, how is the expansion of the Fate Shadow Guards?”

”Excellent. We are meeting your expectations, and by the time weʼve spread throughout the lower dimension, everything should be prepared.”

”Thatʼs good news.” Wang Wei nodded before handing the Law Tree Seed to her. ”Give this to Origin One and tell him to find someone to plan it.” Wang Ju received the seed, wondering why the sect master tasked him with such a mundane thing; couldnʼt he just do it himself.

”Okay, youʼre dismissed.” Wang Wei said after talking for another few minutes. Wang Ju bowed before she dissipated.

ʼShe knows me too well,ʼ Wang Wei thought. Such a quality is perfect for the kind of role Wang Ju is in, but it also becomes a weakness that Wang Weiʼs opponent could exploit. He does not think Wang Ju would ever betray if she were ever captured, but there were too many ways to extract information from her.

ʼThatʼs why she cannot ascend with me. The lower dimension is the perfect protection for her until Iʼm strong enough to protect her from these methods.ʼ Wang Wei felt it was truly a shame, given how much time and effort he spent to train her to be this capable. Previously, he did not want to take her mainly due to her talent, but heʼs learned that with his ability, cultivation talents are the least of his problems.

”Oh, good, youʼre back.”

Wang Wei turned to look at Xu Shi.

”I came to check on you, but you werenʼt here.” She paused and looked at him intently. ”Why are you suddenly more beautiful than me?”

”Iʼve always been more beautiful than you. Your ego simply could not accept such a fact until I truly revealed myself to the world.”

Xu Shi rolled her eyes as she observed him more carefully. ”Youʼre not the kind of person to care about his appearance and purposely make you more beautiful. So, what happened?”

”Iʼve got a new skin routine.”

”Care to share?”

”You canʼt afford it.”

”Thatʼs a shame.” Xu Shi sighed deeply. ”However, now, we will never beat the rumors about us.” Wang Weiʼs lips twitched as he could already foresee what people would say about his new change. For example, he felt inferior, so he changed his appearance to be more worthy of being with Xu Shi. And that one will probably be the mildest of them.

”Donʼt mention those things, or my mood will worsen.”

”So, are you alright?”

”Iʼm fine.”

Xu Shi looked at him. ”Well, if you say so. We need another court meeting as there are many things for you to decide - especially the ambassadors from the Central Region.”

”Central Region?”

”Iʼm assuming youʼve been debriefed on the current situation of the Endless Void?”

”I was.”

”Well, thatʼs the name we have given the regions between us and the Golden God.”

”Thatʼs a lazy name, but I guess itʼs straightforward enough.”

”Their people have been for a while, asking for an audience with you.”

”Alright.” With a thought, the courtʼs bell rang worldwide, signaling that a court meeting would occur three days later. Then, the two chatted briefly before Xu Shi left. Wang Wei gazed at the world.

28,000 years passed while he was in the Dark Truth, so a few important things occurred in his absence. For example, Lou Cheng had already ascended, becoming the first Emperor in this generation to leave. The Innate Demon Gods were perfectly integrated into the world, and as he planned, the Innate Demons were now allied with the demon race in the north while the Primordial Gods were now allied with human forces.

Finally, the Myriad Emperor World received baptism from the Five Sacred Beasts because of Huo Fenghuang. From now on, the five elements and Yin-Yang of the world were perfected, and the worldʼs luck was more condensed, which allowed it to give birth to more talents. More importantly, the Five Sacred Beasts were considered holy creatures, hence their high immunity to curses. Because of this blessing, children born from the Myriad Emperor World will also have a slight immunity to curses, and the Myriad Emperor World itself cannot be easily cursed.

ʼHer actions have actually prolonged the Heavenly Emperor Era by a significant person,ʼ Wang Wei thought. No wonder she received a decent amount of merit for her action.

His eyes then focused on the Western Continent. The devil cultivators have essentially been ”reformed” after being used as the courtʼs main military power. Now, their strength has reached an all-time low, almost nonexistent. Why such a drastic change? Devil cultivators existed because it was a shortcut for people without talents.

However, in this generation, resources and training methods are so abundant that it is pointless to become a devil cultivator. For most people, why kill innocent people to increase their cultivation when they can do thousands of simulations beforehand to ensure nothing goes wrong? Then there is the fact that cultivators now have access to thousands of different cultivation systems. They might be talentless in the Origin System but not in other systems. All these changes resulted in the drastic weakening of the Devil Dao.

ʼNow that cultivation has become so much easier, True Heavenly Dao has already created new ways to restrict mortals.ʼ Previously, someone had to be born with a Leakless Body to cultivate the Origin System. But now, if someone did not have such talent, they could change to a Martial arts system that only required healthy bones or bodies.

ʼArk? Is that the new system?ʼ

Mortals are now born with or without an ark. Those with the ark can cultivate and those without cannot - no matter the system. Of course, this system is imperfect as True Heavenly Dao left hope for the people in this era. So, if someone had already used the previous system to walk the path of cultivation, they were fine. Meanwhile, even this new system was not perfect in an attempt to give hope to this eraʼs mortals. As long as they find the right resources, they can condense their arks, which is not nearly as rare as it used to be.
