Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1157 Conclusion

1157 Conclusion

Wang Chang looked at the woman before him. She was exactly as he always dreamt - beautiful, quiet, peaceful, naturally noble, and a slight aura of indifference. She did not see him as she was too busy mixing medicine, probably for an upcoming patient. He looked at her longingly for a few seconds before making his presence known.

”You scared me.” She was calm despite saying these words. No, she was too calm for someone. ”Why are you standing here like a buffoon? Come help me.” For the first time in his life, Wang Chang did not listen to her. Instead, he walked next to her and started caressing her face.

”Is something wrong?” Mao Yue asked, stopping her actions to look him in the eyes.

”No.”

”Then, why are you acting so strange?”

”I just miss you.”

”Although itʼs only been less than ten minutes since we saw each other, I miss you too,” she replied as she touched his hands on her face. ”However, we have work to do - lives to save. So, letʼs leave the affection for when the clinic is closed.”

Wang Chang chuckled, ”That is something she would say.”

”Pardon me?”

”You look so perfect, even indistinguishable. From her face, aura, mannerisms, and state of mind - you are a perfect replica.”

”Now, youʼre worrying me,” Mao Yue claimed. ”Are you sure nothing happened? Are you sick? No, youʼre a cultivator, so that should not be the issue. Please, talk to me.”

”What a wonderful illusion.”

”Changʼer.” It was Mao Yueʼs turn to caress his face. ”No matter what happens, our family can deal with it.”

”Itʼs a shame that this place could not remove the pain I felt when I lost her,” Wang Chang shook his head.

”Think about Tianʼer,” Mao Yue swiftly said. ”Donʼt do anything to break our family apart - especially after going through all this trouble to reunite. Stay here with me, and everything will be fine.”

Wang Chang took one last look at her before the illusion began to fall apart. He opened his eyes to find himself in quite a predicament. Yang Chen attacked him with a terrifying white flame, and half his body was already destroyed. Adding on the previous injuries from the fire beam, he was in pretty bad shape.

However, he was not too worried. According to an already established technique, his body would instinctively use a little bit of nothingness power once heʼs in danger, entering the Intangibility State. Thatʼs why Yang Chen was yelling and trying his best but could not destroy the remaining half of his flesh.

ʼI can sense a Dao Will inside my body and soul - he must have a Dao Will artifact,ʼ Wang Chang thought as he assessed the situation. ʼHowever, his application is less than subpar by the standard in the Dream World.ʼ He immediately used his Will Manifestation to remove the Dao Will before regenerating the missing part.

Yang Chen stopped his pointless attack, looking at his enemy with gritted teeth. He was close to defeating this bastard a second time, but things didnʼt go as planned.

ʼHis Dao Heart should be flawed, so why didnʼt the illusion last longer? It should not have been this quick even if he had prepared and practiced beforehand.ʼ He thought he had overestimated his opponent but only did the opposite.

Yang Chen exhaled deeply before saying, ”How about we end this fight as a tie? We donʼt have much deep animosities, just competition. How about we make peace?”

”Donʼt say such a stupid thing again,” Wang Chang sneered. ”Only one of us will walk out of this sealed space.”

ʼDamn this idiot. Iʼm already making such great concessions.ʼ Yang Chen was annoyed; he didnʼt like dealing with these hot-headed individuals who only think with their fists.

[Overlordʼs Authority: Heaven and Earth]

Wang Chang forcefully took control of the power of Heaven and Earth before punching his opponent. A colossal red fist manifested in this dimension, and it moved along with Wang Changʼs movement. Yang Chenʼs face turned ugly as this attack descended on him.

He could not move, his thinking slower than usual, and his soul was overflowing with the fear of death. And thatʼs because his eyes or senses did not see a fist but the might of Heaven and Earth, and it was truly unimaginable.

The entire world trembled as the fist landed. The shockwave from the attack blew away millions of forests, trees, and mountains. Oceans, lakes, and rivers instantly dried up, volcanoes became inactive, and the moon and sun exploded into pieces, leaving the world in darkness.

Wang Chang frowned as he knew this was not over. Then, as expected, a paled face Yang Chen materialized in the distance. He used his Illusion Dao to revert ”real” to ”unreal” and achieve a state similar to intangibility. Unfortunately, the attack exceeded his technique, and Wang Chang masterfully used his WIll Manifestation.

”You can escape once, but not twice,” Wang Chang sneered as he continued his offensive effort. With control of Heaven and Earth, he also gained control of Yin-Yang. So, he modified his surroundings to prevent Yang Chen from entering his unreal state. Then, he used a slapping attack this time.

[Illusory Chaos Flame]

Yang Chen combined his primary and sub-Dao - Fire and Illusion - into one to create an illusory Chaos Flame with the same effect as the real one. Unfortunately for him, Wang Chang did not care whether this fake flame had the same effect as the real one. He had bathed or tempered his body with genuine Chaos Flame, meaning he was highly immune to it.

It was a little too late by the time Yang Chen noticed this fact. The palm attack broke countless of his bones despite his best effort at a defensive measure. He crashed into the desolate earth left in this sealed world, creating even more devastation to this realm.

Yang Chen swiftly stood up, ignoring how much blood he was coughing or how many liters of the thing he had already lost. He was trying his best to recuperate with plenty of wood and water energy, but the Willpower inside his body was not permitting such a thing.

ʼI can no longer hesitate.ʼ He activated his final trump card - a red orb with cloud symbols. His aura rapidly increased, along with the killing intent in his eyes. He was now on a war path, and no one could stop him.

”As always, youʼre stupid and canʼt even realize this,” Yang Chen sneered. ”Do you think you escaped from me back then because you made a wise choice? I allowed you to escape out of fear and respect for the Dao Opening Sect.”

His aura had reached a scary level.

”But now, things are different. I am the one with the high background.”

Wang Chang was calm during this sudden change. He summoned a talisman from his space ring and activated it. A seal materialized above the dark sky, and immediately afterward, Yang Chenʼs aura rapidly decreased - returning to the state before summoning the orb artifact.

”What the hell did you do?”

”You see, I have a very clever grandson,” Wang Chang replied calmly. ”He predicted that the greatest trump card someone like you can access is an Empyrean Artifact acquired through your servitude to one of these parasites. So, he gave me something to ensure our battles remain fair.”

Yang Chenʼs body trembled due to the overwhelming emotions coursing through every fiber of his being.

”Do you want to hear what else he said?” Wang Chang continued. ”He said he doubted you were capable enough to exchange for such an artifact. Now, Iʼm curious what you did for them to reward you so highly?”

Yang Chen did not answer as blood dripped from both corners of his mouth. It even looked like his eyes were about to start bleeding.

”Not answering? Well, I guess it doesnʼt matter.” Wang Chang exhaled deeply before clenching his fist, feeling every muscle in his body. As he punched forward, Wang Chang felt his spirit extremely concentrated, allowing him to throw the best punch of his life.

A golden dragon descended from the heavens before releasing a roar that made the void tremble and crack. The dragon rushed toward Yang Chen, who still defended himself despite the desperate situation. The orb artifact floated before him to release a red shield. Sadly, this was useless.

The dragon tore apart his shield before dispersing his body particle by particle before targeting his soul. The dragon weakened Yang Chenʼs soul to the weakest state before sealing the small part into a crystal. Wang Chang was surprisingly calm as he became the final victor.

He sat cross-legged in the void, entering a deep state of meditation. His wrathful, powerful, and domineering aura rapidly became peaceful and calm. His aura first fused with his surroundings before turning similar to an ordinary or mortal.

The last flaw in Wang Changʼs Dao Heart healed, and his state of mind was perfected and sublimated. He opened his clear eyes and muttered: ”Itʼs time for a new adventure.”
