Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 1096 Terrifying Enemy

Chapter 1096 Terrifying Enemy

1096 Terrifying Enemy

The first person w.a.n.g Wei thought of was one of the Six Cardinals - the Magistrate of Heaven. From Wu Hong's notebooks, he learned the basic names of these six individuals, and w.a.n.g Wei believed if there were someone with the strength, knowledge, and possible motive to scheme against him across s.p.a.ce and time, it would be him.

However, w.a.n.g Wei had his reservation about this deduction for a few reasons. The inheritance does not seem to come from someone who created True Heavenly Dao but from someone who knows a great deal about it after years of research. Secondly, the fact that the inheritance only went as far as the fifth reincarnation and encouraged its owner to travel to a non-primary Source Chaos World was a sign that someone with limited power or ability did it.

Of course, w.a.n.g Wei considered the possibility that the Magistrate of Heaven did it on purpose to remove suspicions from himself. Even commenting about leaving the world to continue the inheritance might be another trap.

The second person w.a.n.g Wei doubted was Heavenly Book Paragon. As the person who holds the Paragon t.i.tle or position of Heaven Dao, he would have the capabilities and knowledge for this inheritance. And as a Fate Star, Heavenly Book Paragon had the intelligence and ingenuity to devise such a brilliant idea.

'The issue is why this man is targeting me? I've never met or offended him?' thought w.a.n.g Wei, and after a brief a.n.a.lysis, he figured many things out. What does someone like Heavenly Book Paragon, who has reached the end of the Paragon Realm, want to achieve? The answer is obvious since it applies to everyone on or near his level - Transcendence.

'Heavenly Book never partic.i.p.ated in the Second Origin War-why? He either couldn't or did not want to. If we follow the latter's line of thinking, why would he not want to partic.i.p.ate in an event with such major ramifications?

'He either knew it would not work or had another method of achieving transcendence - maybe both.'

With Heavenly Book's intelligence, it's not far-fetched for him to deduce what Qiyuan wanted to achieve and even predict his failure.

'So, he used the event and the power vacuum afterward to spread his power and influence all over the Chaos Universe.'

w.a.n.g Wei had chills running down his spine as he realized how much power Heavenly Book Paragon might have if he took full advantage of all these Paragons entering Limbo across the Chaos Universe.

'If I were him, I would create p.a.w.ns in every primary Source Chaos world and other worlds of significance...Speaking of p.a.w.ns, could these parasites be related to him in any way?' w.a.n.g Wei paused as this idea was also feasible.

'It's possible they were once Heavenly Book's p.a.w.ns, but he had to abandon them once Maitreya and Supreme Unity came back into the picture.'

w.a.n.g Wei's brow furrowed deeply as he realized the severity of the situation. There is a high chance that a future version of Heavenly Book Paragon has allied with Grand Dao to deal with him. And with his deep foundation from the Ultimate Taboo events, he will truly be a formidable foe.

'No, maybe not just his future self. Paragons have way more leniency regarding messing with the River of Time. So, it's not impossible for him to already have contact with Grand Dao.'

w.a.n.g Wei suddenly realized his genuine opponent after ascending is not the parasites or even Supreme Unity, but Heavenly Dao Book. 'This is going to be a major problem.'

After battling Emperor Jia, he realized his young age was one of his weaknesses. Despite his talent, some of these old geezers simply had too much time ahead of them, allowing them to refine their techniques and abilities to the point that talent was not enough to fill the gap. He could use Time Acceleration to compensate, but a person like Heavenly Dao Book can also use Time Acceleration, rendering this advantage null.

'I need to find a way to travel back in time and make use of it,' grunted w.a.n.g Wei. 'In the meantime, my time in Primordial Chaos should be useful.' He reckoned that even if he spent most of his time trying to retain his mortality and his personality from Earth, he should have cultivated his Soul and Absorption Technique to a level on par with these old monsters. All he needs to do is take those techniques that have been refined for trillions of Yuan Epochs and add his current Dao and other spin on it.

w.a.n.g Wei checked the seal on his soul; it was still not time to open it since he did not want to deal with the karma that dealt with his past selves, but these memories should become valuable in the Paragon Realm.

w.a.n.g Wei focused on Emperor Jia. He pointed at the latter's forehead to reduce his soul into pure energy before adding one of his Spirit Particles to become a new soul to this body. He blessed the particle with Emperor Jia's fate line to ensure no one could tell the difference.

"You know what to do," said w.a.n.g Wei after the latter opened his eyes.

"I do." Emperor Jia's body suddenly became pale and grew dark spots before cutting his left arm. He left the Void Battlefield, and as soon as he stepped out, w.a.n.g Wei pointed his finger, and the entire lower dimension sensed an anomaly, but they could not detect the cause; they knew something major had happened but did not know exactly what.

'This should be enough.' He had planned everything, including not allowing anyone to watch this battle. He silently teleported to the court and called four people: Li Jun, Yan Liling, his mother, and Xu s.h.i.+.

Everyone immediately appeared, and Yu Yan asked calmly: "Are you alright?"

"Oh, this?" said w.a.n.g Wei, looking at his missing arm. "It should grow back after a few months." It should take a while to remove Emperor Jia's True Will and regenerate. He looked at Li Jun and Yan Liling, "I call you two to rea.s.sure you." He s.h.i.+fted to the other two: "In a while, rumors of my death and disappearance will spread. Once that happens, you need to hold a court meeting to rea.s.sure people that a small accident occurred, but I'm fine. You must continue the original plan by supporting the Star Beast World."

"Will this be alright? What if someone causes trouble?" asked Xu s.h.i.+.

"After the previous bait, they should not be this stupid. Plus, Li Jun and Liling will serve as deterrence." Few people knew about the oaths and the fact they could not interfere, so w.a.n.g Wei plans to use this fact. Of course, some people must have guessed something after seeing how the Dao Opening Sect received no luck or destiny blessing after these two proved the Dao.

"Don't worry. We will hold the fort, so feel free to do as you please," said Yu Yan, and Xu s.h.i.+ nodded.

"Thanks, and talk to father for me." His father was approaching the completion of his Nine Extremity Foundation, but he was still in the Swordsmans.h.i.+p World. w.a.n.g Wei did not want him to hurry in case he heard the news while on a break or something.

After everyone silently left, w.a.n.g Wei teleported to a world called Angry Sea World - a place ruled by the Sea Race while the human race lived on a few scattered islands. This realm is also the place where Number 9, or Shao Weiyuan, proved the Dao. w.a.n.g Wei appeared on a deserted island, and less than ten seconds later, w.a.n.g Ju appeared before him on one knee.

"How did it go?"

"I'm sorry," said w.a.n.g Ju, lowering her head in shame.

"Did something happen?" asked w.a.n.g Wei.

"We captured everyone else, but Number 1 escaped."

"How can he escape under your hands?"

"I don't know exactly, but he immediately detected something wrong and escaped, leaving everyone behind. I tried to find him afterward, but my divination was blocked."

"He s.h.i.+yi s.h.i.+elded him with the power of the Four Symbol Mirror. I will deactivate the protection, so go retrieve him," said w.a.n.g Wei before summoning the mirror and using it. w.a.n.g Ju activated all her strength before disappearing. She returned less than a minute later with a captured Number 1.

"Did he talk to anyone?"

"I checked, and the answer is no; he was more focused on running away."

"Good. Where are the others?" w.a.n.g Ju summoned the other spies, and w.a.n.g Wei searched their souls. He only succeeded for three of them as the remaining six had Slave Marks on their souls, and he did not want to touch this thing. He then used his Spirit Particle to enslave the markless ones while hypnotizing the mark ones.

"I need you to return to your homeworlds and...."

"Yes, master." (9x)

These spies disappeared, leaving w.a.n.g Wei and w.a.n.g Ju. Although brute force is oftentimes the quickest way to do things, it's usually not the most optimized approach for maximum benefit.

"You know your next step?"

"Yes," bowed w.a.n.g Ju. "Once again, I apologize for my failure."

"It's fine. Go do your task." w.a.n.g Wei knew no plans were guaranteed and usually accounted for possible mistakes. He would only reprimand her if the failure were the result of her incompetence or mistake.
