Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 1247 Beyond Comprehension

Chapter 1247  Beyond Comprehension

w.a.n.g Wei was in a cultivation room, reflecting on the battle. The character profile he made for Old Man Dai mostly stayed the same from the initial conception when they were talking. The only thing new he confirmed was that the old man was not as low-key as he should be, and he wanted some attention and glory.

This was further proven when he used his master's Paragon Will, which he should have hidden as a last result trump card. He also should not have revealed it so quickly that it came from his master. From what little w.a.n.g Wei could gather about these two's masters, I don't think he's a man who would be glad that his cultivation realm was revealed.

'Could I draw Old Man Dai's master in the current mess?' w.a.n.g Wei thought. The situation would become much more complicated if a Boundless Paragon suddenly appeared. However, w.a.n.g Wei immediately shook his head as soon as this thought manifested. He reckoned their master might let his two disciples die if their actions put him at risk.

'However, I may be able to use the fact that Old Man Dai revealed his master's information to blackmail him into working with me,' w.a.n.g Wei thought. 'No, maybe take action once, but he'll still prioritize his life.' w.a.n.g Wei was satisfied with using Old Man Dai's power once. After all, he is still a decently talented Paragon.

He sensed someone outside and said: "Come in."

Mongke's humongous frame walked into the room. w.a.n.g Wei did not stand up from his cus.h.i.+on: "Did something happen?"

"No, I wanted to check on you," Mongke replied. "What happened out there? I thought the fight would at least be a draw." He saw most of the fight and was shocked as he did not expect things to be so one-sided toward the Hidden Master.

"He had an artifact with a Paragon Will," w.a.n.g Wei explained.

"That explains everything." He wondered why w.a.n.g Wei's defense was so easily penetrated. After processing this news, Mongke suddenly became angry. "So, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d did not do his best against me?"

"Apparently so," w.a.n.g Wei nodded casually. "Let's change the subject. What happened during my absence? Anything to report?"

"Yes. Everything is in order as we now control the Lawless Zone," Mongke reported. "We've also finished the preparation for leaving. We can depart as soon as you say the word."

"That's good to hear," w.a.n.g Wei nodded. "You should have observed Jia Ping in the past hundred years. What are your thoughts?" Although he trusted his subordinate, w.a.n.g Wei needed to remain cautious. No matter how Jia Ping felt about his father, he had some respect or affection for him. So, w.a.n.g Wei needed to ensure he was not raising a snake.

"He's quite capable and focused," Mongke replied honestly. "And from what I can tell, he showed no abnormal signs. Of course, it's only been a hundred years, so it's hard to tell."

He had long black hair with streaks of red. His clothes were dirty, his hair disheveled, with blood stains everywhere on his clothes and the floor. However, the most noticeable aspect of his appearance was his pitch-black eyes, which made him look like a demon.

'The Dark-Eyes Race?' w.a.n.g Wei thought. He knew of this race born with the power to feed on people's desires. They were once a part of the collective devil race before separating themselves. The odd thing about this race was they separated themselves not long before many factions besieged the Primogenitor Devil. However, no one blamed or retaliated against them for some bizarre reason. It was like all the other factions collectively chose to ignore their previous crimes. Then, from what w.a.n.g Wei knows, most of their members disappeared afterward, leaving a small population in the Eternal Ascension World.

"It's you," said Empyrean Black Heart as he recognized w.a.n.g Wei. "Indeed. I bet you never expected this, did you?" w.a.n.g Wei sneered.

"But how is that possible?" Black Heart asked, not hiding his shock. "The last time I saw you was less than 500 million years ago, and you were only Tier 7." Even Time Acceleration could not explain the latter's current cultivation realm.

"What can I say? I'm a man of many means."

Black Heart stared at him for a few seconds before exhaling. "I knew you were trouble, but I did not expect you to come knocking on my door so soon."

"Enough with the introduction," w.a.n.g Wei stated. "I came here for answers. What method did you use to interfere in the lower dimension without consequences?"

Empyrean Black Heart looked at him, puzzled: "What are you talking about?"

"What a great actor you are," w.a.n.g Wei praised as he squatted down to look at Black Heart at eye level. "You were part of my Outlaw Trial, so you know what I'm capable of. So, why don't you stop insulting my intelligence, and let's have a conversation — maybe even a civil one."

Black Heart's ignorance was instantly gone. He looked w.a.n.g Wei directly in the eyes. "Promise me my freedom; I'll tell you what you need to know."

w.a.n.g Wei looked at him calmly despite the fact he was secretly shocked. As he read Black Heart's Fate Line, he found nothing. But this was not one of those cases where a mysterious power blocked specific aspects or periods of his life to hide the information.

No, as he saw Black Heart's entire life, everything was normal. At no point in time did w.a.n.g Wei see him come into contact with something that made him unique. It was as if the entire thing never existed in the first place. But he knows the thing existed. He had already deduced its existence logically, and Black Heart admits it by trying to bargain with him.

'Is this some kind of higher dimension information rewrite?' w.a.n.g Wei asked himself, trying to explain what was going on. 'It feels like I'm in a situation where logic and reasons no longer apply or make sense. Is this kind of power from a Half-Step Transcendent?'

Until today, w.a.n.g Wei never felt that Half-Step Transcendent were beings beyond his comprehension.
