Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 288: Devil Scripture

A few days pa.s.sed, and the True Monarchs protecting Zhen Biyu already set up the necessary protection for her in the mountain that the sect provided for them. Then, she spent a month absorbing w.a.n.g Wei's organ parts.

Soon after that, the people of the Five Elements Palace quickly left the Dao Opening Sect.

Tianwei Peak, w.a.n.g Wei and the upper echelons of the sect were having another meeting. A projection screen was in front of them, showing Zhen Biyu's process of absorption.

During the process, many people secretly sighed at w.a.n.g Wei's ingenuity of creating constructs or puppets the size of ants to have them secretly spy on her cultivation room.

Even when her Dao Protector used their Divine Sense to check the room, they will overlook such a small and insignificant animal. And the protection they took to protect her from prying eyes also overlook such a possibility.

"It seems that she cultivates the [Five Element Cla.s.sics] of their founder, Emperor Three Purity," commented Great Elder Yan Mei. Many people nodded in agreement with her as they recognized the cultivation method Zhen Biyu was using.

"Not necessarily," said w.a.n.g Wei in disagreement. "I do not believe for a moment that she did not create her own scripture."

"Young master, are you saying that she knew we were secretly watching her? That she noticed our actions?"

"Not necessarily, but there are records of people with Pure Heart having very powerful intuitions. She might have felt something wrong, thus decided to hide her true ability as a precaution."

Indeed, this was a very high possibility.

"Doesn't that mean we still do not know much about her?" asked one of the Elders.

"No, we can deduce a few things from this situation," replied w.a.n.g Tian. "For example, she probably used to cultivate the [Five Element Cla.s.sic], despite her look, she is probably very intelligent and her intuition could be of great help in battle."

"Additionally, her talent for the Dao of Five Elements probably reached a terrifying level," added w.a.n.g Wei. "From what she previously said, she felt the power of Innate Five Element in my body from the Eastern Continent; that is not something any normal person can do."

People nodded in agreement with w.a.n.g Wei, then they spent the next few hours discussing and theorizing about Zhen Biyu's strength.

Once the meeting finished, w.a.n.g Wei returned to his Sacred Son Mountain, and there, he saw w.a.n.g Ju waiting for him. He invited her in to have a meeting.

"Young master, we just received the scripture from the Mo family."

"Oh, so was I right about them?"

"Correct. As soon we have asked them to check out the Secret Realm before officially entering, they were very quick to refuse. So, as you suggested, we threatened to destroy it, and eventually, under the pressure, they had Mo Xingyun signed the contract."

w.a.n.g Ju then handed a red scroll to w.a.n.g Wei, which was the Gluttony Swallowing Scripture. He opened it and read it:

"All living beings are born feeble and helpless, and from birth, require eating to survive. We eat nutrients from our mother's womb, eat food to grow up, sustain ourselves, grow, and prevent death.

"Even cultivators cannot escape the cycle of constant consumption: they eat spiritual energy, Heavenly and Earthly treasures, and even one another. Eating is a fundamental part of the universe, a part of the cycle of nature.

"But why should living-being stop at consuming things that are 'edible'? All things in existence have value, whether it is a piece of dirt or the most valuable of Heavenly materials. So, consume everything, indulge in the act of consuming, treat everything between Heaven and Earth as nothing but food.

"Whether it is ores, flesh, blood, soul, energy, or even the entire world, consume them; swallow them."

As w.a.n.g Wei read this scripture, he suddenly felt a terrifying desire to swallow everything around him enveloped his mind; the desire to eat everything seemed to want to overwhelm his mind.

Fortunately, his will was quite powerful that he instantly regained his mind. With a sigh, he muttered: "Worthy of a cultivation technique of the devil race; it took the cultivators' basic idea of taking from Heaven and Earth to make up for their deficiency to a new level.

"More ever, this book could explain one of the reasons that the Heaven Swallowing Emperor acted the way he did. If he got half of this book when he was young, he might have been affected by the will inside of it. Given his nature as a Devil Cultivator, he probably might be even more susceptible to this kind of influence."

After dismissing w.a.n.g Ju, he spent a few days understanding this scripture in detail/ Although he would not cultivate it himself, he can still try to understand something from it to integrate it into his [Transcending Fate Sutra].

However, a week later, he received another talisman that another person came to see him. So, he took a shower and went to meet the person.

After entering the reception area of his manor, he saw an old lady with long white hair, dressed in plain clothes talking to Wu Hong.

"Grandma!" yelled w.a.n.g Wei as he rushed to hug her.

"Oh, be careful not to break these old bones," replied Yun Zhaojun.

"Grandma, I thought you could not leave the Yu family easily."

"This is just a clone, so you do not need to worry."

w.a.n.g Wei nodded his head as he knew that Void Shatter Realm powerhouses could easily create clones of themselves, not to mention his grandmother who was a True Monarch.

"So, what brought you here to see me?"

"I came to see my new daughter-in-law."

"So, you did not come to see me?" asked w.a.n.g Wei with a pout.

"Of course, I did. How could I forget my lovely grandson."

So, the three sat together over tea to chat.

"So, when are you planning to hold the Dao Companion Ceremony?"

"We were thinking after we both entered the Primordial Spirit Realm, we will hold a small ceremony with friends and family," replied w.a.n.g Wei.

"After Primordial Spirit Realm? That's not a long time; it's good to be early and make it official."

w.a.n.g Wei frowned slightly, "Grandma, is there something wrong?"

"No, I'm just happy that you found the love of your life so quickly. Luckily, you do not have to go to all the trouble your parents went to before getting together."

w.a.n.g Wei nodded his head, "What about grandpa? Is his injury alright now with the Merit?"

"Yes, he is much better now; he should be able to leave his seclusion after a while."

"That's good. If you need more merit, the sect should have plenty left. Don't hesitate to ask."

"I know," replied Yun Zhaojun as he pinched his face.

Following this, w.a.n.g Wei spent the next few months spending time with his grandmother. During this time, he did not cultivate, plan, or thought of anything besides enjoying quality time with his family.

Truthfully, he truly enjoyed this peaceful and quiet time, thus, was also a little sad after she left. Nevertheless, he would still see her again.

After that, w.a.n.g Wei entered deep seclusion.

However, while he was cultivating, the world was not so quiet or peaceful--especially the Central Continent.

Green Tree Domain:

A young man wearing golden armor and holding a golden sword led an army charge against another. A powerful and b.l.o.o.d.y aura emanated from his body as he led the charge.

This young man was simply unstoppable. No matter who got in his way would be chop into two sections by his sword. At some point, more than 5 cultivators with Law circulating their bodies attacked him together, but he still singlehandedly slaughter them.

After a few hours, the young man--who was Sun Jiaolong--defeated the opposite army and took over the city they were protecting. He ordered his men to take over the city, but also not to arm the citizens.

To make sure that everything went smoothly, he stood on top of the city gate to oversee everything.

Sun Jiaolong raised his head to look in the sky; he could feel the powerful aura and shockwave of the battle that was taken place in the sky. While he was waiting for the outcome of the battle up there, someone walked to him and said:

"Your highness, we received news that a few of the cities that we previously took over have been retaken by the people of Great Zhou."

"Do you know the reason?" asked Sun Jiaolong calmly.

"According to the information, a bunch of brand new Saints and Supreme Realm powerhouses appeared and our people could not stop them."

"Why didn't our Great Wu sent more powerful cultivators?"

The officer opened his mouth to say something, but he soon closed it again. However, Sun Jiaolong could guess the reason. He secretly sighed, looked at the sword in his hand as he muttered:

"It seems that it's about time I activate your ability."
