Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 180: Innate Talent

w.a.n.g Wei put on a new robe before looking at the destruction caused by his Heavenly Tribulation. To his surprise, the entire mountain was completely fine. There was nothing destroyed, no burn marks. Nothing.

This was probably because of all the formations that were arranged in this mountain. So, w.a.n.g Wei nodded before flying back to his cultivation room.

Meanwhile, all the disciples of the sect had a look of shock on their faces. All they saw was ma.s.sive dark clouds covering the entire sect, then ma.s.sive pillars of white and dark-red flames kept falling on the Tribulation Peak.

Many people wondered whether a devil cultivator had infiltrated their sect, but they heard news that the young sect master was actually going through tribulation.

As a result, many people became worried for w.a.n.g Wei when they saw how powerful that Heavenly Tribulation was. They wondered if he would be able to pa.s.s this tribulation.

If it was not the formations in the Tribulation Peak that prevented both the Cleansing-Purifying Flame and the Heavenly Destruction Flame from spreading outwards, Heaven knows what kind of destruction this Heavenly Tribulation would have caused.

w.a.n.g Wei returned to his cultivation room to finish the final step of his breakthrough; acquiring his Innate Talent.

w.a.n.g Wei looked at the three floating lights in his Sea of Consciousness. These three represented three different talents, which was a surprise to w.a.n.g Wei.

He concentrated on these three lights, then his 7-color Rainbow Qi Luck Dragon flew straight into these three lights, which further intensified their brightness. As such, w.a.n.g Wei's Sea of Consciousness, which was purple in color shone an additional three colors: grey, black and white, and green.

After his Qi Luck baptized his new talents, the three lights spots turned into three different runes--signifying that these talents have been concocted. According to w.a.n.g Wei's calculation, the whole process took him three days.

Then, a message was sent into his mind telling him the name of the talents, what they are capable of and what grade they are.

According to w.a.n.g Wei's knowledge, Innate Talents are divided into four grades: Normal, Growth, Extraordinary, and Taboo.

Normal talents are the worst of the bunch. These talents usually accompany the owner only during the Supernatural Realm, then become useless. Of course, a normal talent is still better than no talent at all.

Growth Talent--as the name implies--is a talent that can slowly grow and develop by the owner. Although the starting point of Growth Talents are low, they have the possibility to reach terrifying heights. It is all based on the ability of the person who holds the talent.

Extraordinary Talents are very powerful and can accompany the owner throughout their entire cultivation path. Furthermore, they can also grow and develop, although it is often unnecessary to do so.

As for taboo? Well, they are extremely powerful, mysterious, and often heaven defying. It is not impossible for a Taboo Innate Talent to grant a cultivator the power to bring back the dead back to life.

However, Taboo Talents always have a price to pay. More often, these talents are a one time ability. Meaning, after using it once, the owner will not be able to do it again and the talent will be gones.

Another possible side effect of taboo talents is they require lifespan to use, or a part of the user's body, or to even sacrifice their entire lives. So, although Taboo Talents are powerful, they are very unstable.

As for w.a.n.g Wei, he received two Growth Talents and one Extraordinary talent.

The green rune in his Sea of Consciousness represents his Pain Talent. w.a.n.g Wei was speechless after knowing the effect of this talent.

For once, this talent allows him to increase the pain that his enemy feels when he attacks them. According to his guess, this talent's purpose is to make his attack so painful that it renders his enemies incapable of fighting. Or at the very least, weaken them greatly due to pain.

Another ability of this talent is that the more pain that w.a.n.g Wei endures, the stronger his battle strength can increase.

Well, w.a.n.g Wei guessed that the reason he has such a talent was probably because of the 18 Level of h.e.l.l that he experienced in the Third PaG.o.da Trial. And probably because he cultivated the [Overlord Fist].

His second Growth Talent is called Life and Death Wheel. Although this talent has a cool name, it is not as powerful as it sounds. This talent allows w.a.n.g Wei to absorb any form of energy to heal himself.

For example, by absorbing the spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth, he could heal a lot of his injuries. To w.a.n.g Wei, this talent was a little wasted due to his powerful regenerative ability granted by his powerful fleshly body.

However, w.a.n.g Wei could use it to superpose to his regeneration. For example, it would probably take him a few minutes to regrow his arm in a battle. However, with the addition of this talent, it would only take him a few seconds if not instant.

In the level of battles that w.a.n.g Wei will have to partic.i.p.ate in the future, the difference between a few splits of seconds can decide life and death.

As for the reason that he has this talent, it was because of his understanding of Death during the Second PaG.o.da Trial.

The last talent was actually the one tailored specifically for his Fate Puppeteer Physique. And to be honest, w.a.n.g Wei was surprised.

This talent was simply too terrible to be just an Extraordinary One. The amount of power that this Innate Talent grants him is simply unimaginable that it was a taboo one.

In order to ensure that he did not make a mistake, he had to check for a few minutes. He sighed as he knew that his strength had dramatically increased. He was looking forwards to meeting a worthy opponent that would forced him to use this talent

After checking his talent, w.a.n.g Wei did not immediately exit his seclusion, but took out a bunch of records about [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scripture] in order to solve a puzzle he had for a while now.

According to his previous understanding, he was not supposed to wake up with an ability like the Innate Field. What's more, after finis.h.i.+ng tempering his bones, another ability was awakening.

So, he was curious about the reason. He was also curious why he did not awaken one after tempering his muscles.

After checking the records, w.a.n.g Wei discovered that this was the result of refining a certain body part to the realm of Great Perfection. The reason that his muscle did not produce an ability was simply because it did not reach Great Perfection.

So, w.a.n.g Wei finally understood. He used chaotic s.p.a.ce to temper his skin, Heavenly Flame to temper his bones. Only his muscles used ordinary methods.

After figuring out the answer, w.a.n.g Wei then checked his new ability. To be honest, this ability was also heaven defying.

This ability which is referred to as [Bone Clone Subst.i.tution] allows w.a.n.g Wei to create a clone of himself from his bones and use that clone as a subst.i.tution for a deadly attack.

In order, if w.a.n.g Wei received an attack so powerful that it could instantly kill him, he could use the bone clone to die in his stead; Essentially, w.a.n.g Wei has another life granted to him by this ability.

Moreover, this clone can also subst.i.tute for w.a.n.g Wei if he received strange, powerful and unnoticeable curses or cause and effect spells like wis.h.i.+ng spell, karma backlash, or reality erasure. Although these kinds of spells or origin abilities are rare, they still exist.

So, with this ability, once these hard to guard against attacks reach w.a.n.g Wei, they will kill the Bone Clone first, giving him enough time to react or defend himself.

What's more, this clone ability is not a one time thing. All w.a.n.g Wei needs to do in order to recreate one is to absorb very precious and High Tier metals like the Silver Sand or Deep Copper.

If it was any other normal cultivators who received this talent, they would be anxious about where to find these rare minerals. However, all w.a.n.g Wei has to do is ask and someone from the sect will hand the materials he needs to him. This is the benefit of being a second-generation rich in the cultivating world.

Well, technically speaking, his family has been rich for countless generations. But, that's not important.

After checking that everything was alright, w.a.n.g Wei started thinking about how he is going to temper his muscles to the realm of Great Perfection.

The best method would be to wait until he breaks through the Divine Body Realm and goes through Heavenly Tribulation again, however, that would take too long.

However, soon, an idea came to his mind as he knew that the opportunity he wanted would soon arrive in front of him, so he muttered with an evil smile, "Let's see if the fish was hooked by my bait after so many years."
