Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1504 Spiritual Perfection (I)

”Where did you get such a thing?” Yan Hai asked.

”Itʼs complicated, and I may need your help later if the buyer refuses to pay. However, we first have to fulfill our side of the agreement, which is to train a Paragon from the Ma Clan,” Wang Wei replied.

”I understand, but this task would have been best left to Brother Li and Wang Chang,” Yan Hai sighed. Li Ming led the sectʼs training, including designing the trials, the sectʼs motto or spirit regarding training methods, the training manual for any Elders in charge of disciplesʼ cultivation, and so on. Meanwhile, Wang Chang was the one knowledgeable about the body and bloodline.

”We can leave a projection to help you,” Li Ming said.

”You can take this opportunity to start spreading the Human Fiendgod Bloodline,” Wang Chang added.

”Now Iʼm doing everybodyʼs work?” Yan Hai yelled, and Qiyuan just patted her on the shoulder.

”Is there anything else?” Yan Hai asked, staring at Wang Wei.

”Thatʼs it. Well, no, forget it. Itʼs not that important,” Wang Wei said. Yan Hai snorted and talked with Wu Hong for a few seconds before leaving. The others said their goodbye, leaving the couple alone.

”Come see me when you leave your seclusion,” Wu Hong said before kissing him on the cheek and disappearing. Wang Wei caressed his cheek for a few seconds before leaving the Soul Space with a grin on his face. Back at his manor, it took him a few seconds to remove that idiotic grin from his face and focus on his retreat.

The first thing he did was activate all the arrays in his [Fate Transcending Mountain], entering the best cultivation state. The Time Acceleration Array on his mountain reached the peak of ten times acceleration, and Wang Wei had an entire dimension of third-rank Dao Sources to speed up his cultivation. And thatʼs not mentioning the other arrays that helped cultivate the soul, reduced bottlenecks, boosted Grandmist Worlds, and all other matters of assistance.

Once everything was ready, Wang Wei started his retreat, beginning with purifying his soul and [Existence] with the talisman he bought from Heavenly Dao. He methodically removed all the hidden dangers in his [Existence] through the talisman and assistance from his [Acupoint Method] that allowed him to slowly influence his blueprint.

Once his very essence was clean, Wang Wei focused on the next crucial part: recondensing his flesh. With the pill and the endless energy the sect reserved for him, the process was smooth. He recreated his body exactly like it was before consuming the purple blood. Although Wang Wei could have added some minor beneficial modifications from what he learned when he was using the blood, he did not want to risk it, so he chose a perfect replica from before.

”Itʼs good to have flesh and blood,” Wang Wei muttered as he clenched his fist, feeling the power coursing through his veins. He stood up and did a few physical exercises. His cultivation room had the necessary arrays to ensure he could use his strength without annihilating the room or the entire mountain.

Wang Wei was satisfied after more than an hour of ”exercise,” and he proceeded to his next task: cultivating his soul. After he was promoted to the Paragon Realm, he removed the seal in his mind and accessed all his soul power during his time as the Myriad Devourer. His soul was on par with Paragon Eight Heaven, or 98%.

Wang Wei had the resources ready for his soul to reach 99% as soon as possible. Unlike regular cultivators, he did not have to worry about his talent. His time as the Myriad Devoured ensured his talent for the soul was in the higher percentile, if not the extreme. This also means that bottlenecks only slowed him down instead of stopping him.

After reaching 99%, Wang Wei took a pill that instantly increased his soul by 1%. He waited until now to take the pill since everyone can only take one in their lifetime.

Wang Wei closed his eyes, feeling the changes in his soul. His first sensation was how much his control over his body and other aspects had improved. This change made sense to Wang Wei since his [Soul Cultivation Technique] was created from studying others to focus on control, with the speed of growth being secondary.

Wang Weiʼs soul technique was to lay down the foundation to use his [Force Control Skill] as his Ultimate Skill to become a Primal. Once he succeeds, heʼll instantly have numerous Ultimate Skills. After all, the [Force Control Skill] granted him ultimate control over his body, soul, Dao, and energy. If this skill reaches the level of a Primal Ultimate Skill, he can use his flesh, soul, Dao, and Qi to make Ultimate Attacks.

The second sensation he felt was the imbalance. His cultivation and body were still in the Fifth Heaven, which was drastically different from his soul, which had reached its peak. Typically, such an imbalance would require him to take time to adapt, but his next focus was raising his realm, so it did not matter.

Wang Wei took the time to adapt to his soul before continuing his retreat. His focus was not immediately on raising his realm but elevating his Golden Body of Merit. Heavenly Dao had long reinstated his second-level golden body after the lock, reversing the sacrifice he had made. Now, Wang Wei was elevating it to the third-rank.

Wang Wei watched as the physical manifestation of the golden body released intense lights as its aura drastically increased. Then, it reached a peak and stopped.

ʼItʼs indeed the peak of third rank and instead of fourth rank,ʼ Wang Wei thought. Although he knew this was the most likely result, he was still disappointed. He absorbed the golden body and felt the changes.

Wang Wei was surprised. Besides all the advantages or boost to cultivation and protection, the third golden body granted him two useful abilities. The first one was one additional life; in other words, the golden body acted as a longevity resource at the third level. However, the one Wang Wei cared the most was the second, which was a protection Ultimate Skill.

The skill is called [Sageʼs Protection], and upon activation, a golden shield will appear around Wang Wei that can protect him from a Primal Paragonʼs Ultimate Skills for half an hour. The interesting part about this protection is even if his enemy has already find his Time Mark, Wang Wei will be immune from death in that thirty minutes.

”I should use this carefully,” Wang Wei muttered. This protection has limits. The first use is free, but subsequent applications will require a great deal of merit to charge.

ʼThe next step is to reach the peak of the Paragon Realm,ʼ Wang Wei thought as he focused on his cultivation. He closed his eyes to access his Grandmist World, linking his soul to all sentient beings to use their minds to help him comprehend the Grand Dao Source.

Wang Wei used the array in the sect that allowed him to increase the size of his world beyond the limit, thus create more sentient beings to help him cultivate. He then activated his Bodhi Tree, the borrowed Taoist Pear Tree, his [Three Paths–Three Selves Art], and his merit to boost his understanding.

For the first time in his life, Wang Wei felt the Grand Dao Source was simple and even easy. He immediately lost track of time as the essence of fate became an open book to him. As expected, his cultivation increased like a rocket, stopping at 99.999%.

ʼHave I encountered a bottleneck?ʼ Wang Wei thought before taking a pill for the occasion. However, the pill did not help him reach perfection, but revealed the problem. Back in the Divine Body Realm, Wang Wei had fused his goal or ambition into his soul and Dao. So, if he wanted to reach the peak of the Paragon Realm, he needed some soul searching and spiritual achievement to realign his pursuit in life with his cultivation.

ʼLuckily, I have the perfect thing for this occasion,ʼ Wang Wei thought before taking out the Path Refining Stone. He had acquired this thing after raiding Blood Dragonʼs treasury. He put the stone on his forehead, which liquified before fusing with him. Wang Weiʼs spirit immediately experienced an out of body experience.

Wang Wei found himself in another world. He did not know whether his spirit had traveled there, whether it was another Chaos World, or in the past or future, or whether this was a well-crafted illusion created by the stone. The truth did not matter more than the actual lesson the stone wanted him to learn.

Wang Wei observed the world with his divine sense, even being a little brazen about the entire ordeal. He first frowned, followed by showing an unpleasant expression: ”How is that coward considered someone who pursues freedom?” He was immediately annoyed that the main character of this trip was considered the same kind of person as he was.
