Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 889 Heaven Court's First Meeting

Chapter 889 Heaven Court's First Meeting

'Interesting,' thought w.a.n.g Wei, who noticed the elderly man and the book. He had the idea of changing the New Emperor Era into the Dragon Raising Era, but he only told his thoughts to his family and sect members.

But oddly, this book already knew the truth.

He even discussed with the sect about reusing the old name for the Middle Emperor Era–the Dao Academy Era. Back then, the Dao Opening Sect secretly spearheaded the campaign to change the era's name to reduce the luck of the Enlightened Emperor Academy.

However, w.a.n.g Wei wanted to change it back to prepare for a future relations.h.i.+p with Emperor Kong.

'What an interesting sect,' thought w.a.n.g Wei before instantly reading the old man's fate line and knowing most of his secrets.

'The Watcher Sect?'

According to the information he gathered, this is an odd sect. There has been only one Emperor in the sect, the Heaven Record Emperor. However, this is not the odd part. The sect only has one member in each generation, chosen by the Heaven Record Book–an Emperor Artifact with the sole purpose of recording history.

The motto or objective of the Watcher Sect is to record history– nothing more and nothing else. They forbid their members from affecting the world in any shape or form; they only observe and record.

Their cultivation techniques required them to have a state of mind similar to Taoism, where they remained indifferent no matter the circ.u.mstance. If one of their members chooses to ignore the sect's motto and interfere, the Heaven Record Book will either kill or abandon them.

'This sect is weird,' thought w.a.n.g Wei after deducing the knowledge he discovered. The Heaven Record Emperor appeared in the early stages of the Ancient Emperor Era, recording the history of the Myriad Emperor World.

However, the Heaven Record Book existed before its owner. The book chose the Heaven Record Emperor, then slowly cultivated him into a First Cla.s.s Emperor.

w.a.n.g Wei became suspicious because the book appeared out of nowhere. Furthermore, even after a brief search through fate and the River of Time, he did not find the origin of the book.

He focused intently before catching something.

'This book is related to the Chrono Chaos Realm? That's

unexpected.'

w.a.n.g Wei discovered a very well-hidden karmic connection between the book and one of the forbidden zones.

'Well, let's keep an eye on it for now. With this book, maybe I can learn many secrets of the world.'

w.a.n.g Wei disappeared, waiting for the arrival of these factions'

representatives.

Watcher Sect:

'Discovered?' thought the old man; he never thought he would be discovered. According to the archive of the sect, they have been hiding in the world for countless eras. Since then, no Eternal Emperor has ever discovered them.

'What should I do? Should I leave the Myriad Emperor World and hide?'

However, as soon as he had that idea, a sense of dread overcame him. He understood that he was already targeted by that powerful Emperor, so he could not leave.

'I guess I have no choice but to wait.'

...

w.a.n.g Wei sat on a throne, waiting for everybody. A few minutes later, thousands of people arrived at his palace. Most people came along, but a few people sent at least three representatives.

Xu s.h.i.+, Huo Fenghuang, and Ao Shen squinted their eyes after entering the throne room. The man on the throne did not release any aura, but they felt they were facing an infinite being that was larger than life itself.

Huo Fenghuang was the most shocked. Her Heavenly Eye

Technique sublimated after becoming a Primarch. As such, she immediately knew w.a.n.g Wei had control of 25% of the Grand Dao Source.

However, when her eyes tried to detect his battle prowess, she only saw question marks.

"Pay respect to the Heavenly Emperor."

All the representatives said simultaneously. The Insurgents below First Cla.s.s bowed ninety degrees to salute, while the others only needed to cup their hands and salute.

This information appeared in their mind the moment they walked into the room. A few people wanted to disobey this rule but soon gave up the idea after peeping at w.a.n.g Wei sitting on the throne.

"At ease," said w.a.n.g Wei with a soothing yet authoritative voice, allowing everyone to get up.

"Welcome to the first meeting of the Heavenly Court," declared w.a.n.g Wei with a smile. Then, the room became eerily quiet, without a single sound. This quiet lasted almost a minute before someone asked:

"What is the Heavenly Court? What's its purpose?"

Everyone looked at who spoke and realized it was the former most beautiful woman in the world who disappeared–Xu s.h.i.+. People were shocked once they discovered Emperor Aura from her.

Normally, they would have immediately noticed such a thing, especially given Xu s.h.i.+'s unworldly beauty. However, w.a.n.g Wei's natural presence was so strong that people immediately focused on him after entering the room.

"I'm glad you asked. I was prepared to stare for a few hours, basking in the awkwardness if someone did not ask," said w.a.n.g Wei with a smile. People's mouths twitched, cla.s.sifying this new ruler as the unpredictable and unreadable kind.

However, everyone paid attention since they knew the main event was about to begin. For the past hundred years, they have racked their brain, pondering what the Emperor was doing, but no one expected this.

Most people still believe it's a way to conquer the Myriad Emperor World and become its absolute ruler like the Qin Dynasty; the Emperor was just doing it differently.

"Heavenly Dao controls the world's order, laws, and restrictions,"

said w.a.n.g Wei. "It is why the sun and the moon alternate, why the seasons change, why gravity keeps everything together, why Spiritual Qi exists in the environment, why crops grow, and so many more.

"To operate all these rules, Heavenly Dao also needs energy, hence the existence of World Source."

Many frowned, wondering why the Heavenly Emperor told them such simple truths. However, they chose to wait patiently.

"Now, imagine if Heavenly Dao did not need to use World Source for these operations?" asked w.a.n.g Wei.

"You mean..." Xu s.h.i.+ was the first to understand the implications of these words.

"Exactly. As the Heavenly Emperor, I rule Heaven and Earth, but it's not out of pure selfishness. With my power, I can bear the energy needed for the Myriad Emperor World's operation, thus saving a large quant.i.ty of World Source."

w.a.n.g Wei paused to give these people time to ponder his words. A few seconds later, the murmurs and Divine Consciousness

communication ended.

"As you expected, I will also grant you this opportunity.'

Many people's breathing became rapid. Such a project will reward them with tremendous merit, allowing their factions to benefit tremendously. Immediately, they became on guard.

Such a delicious feast, and the Dao Opening Sect did not eat it alone? People became on guard.

w.a.n.g Wei waved his hand to manifest a golden list.

"This is the Conferred G.o.d List. I will canonize individuals from different factions as G.o.ds, allowing them to bear a Heaven Position under the Heavenly Court, sharing the burden of Heavenly Dao."

Many people finally realized what was happening. The Heavenly Emperor was using this method to lure all these factions to work under him. So, a few people sneered.

"The Heaven Position is not as simple as acquiring merit," continued w.a.n.g Wei. "The position itself is a blessing. So, as long as you hold on to it, you will receive Heavenly Dao's blessing, making your cultivation countless times faster."

w.a.n.g Wei saw greed flashed in many of these people's eyes before hiding them. The representatives of the Emperor Lineages are all Immortals, so these old foxes know how to control themselves.

"Let me put things into perspective for you. Cultivating an Immortal Sovereign can take 400 to 1000 generations and countless resources. However, with the highest position in the Heavenly Court, you can cultivate one between 50 to 100 generations without the additional aid of any other resources."

Now, these people could not contain their greed. If some people were previously thinking about only agreeing on the surface, now, they could not help it. If they did that and other factions took the position seriously, their rivals and compet.i.tors would soon surpa.s.s them.

So, they secretly cursed the Heavenly Emperor for being a young fox.

"I have a question," said Huo Fenghuang.

"Please."

"What about the Heavenly Emperor Position?"

"What about it?"

"You will eventually have to ascend. So, what will happen to it in the future? What will happen to this court?"

w.a.n.g Wei laughed out loud, "It's my first day, and you're already thinking about my position."

"It's a valid question," continued Huo Fenghuang.

"The Heavenly Emperor is a Karmic Position of Heaven and Earth.

So, the Emperor of the next generation can take my position and rule the court."

"Can?" asked Ao Shen, who picked up on the difference between "can" and "will."

"Not everyone can be the Heavenly Emperor," replied w.a.n.g Wei calmly. "I will leave tests, and only after pa.s.sing my a.s.sessment can anyone sit on this throne.

"So, in my new era, there will be two types of Emperor–Heavenly Emperors or Ordinary Emperor."

Everyone squinted their eyes as they understood the implications.

The compet.i.tion for the Heaven Will will become a thousand times more intense since they will now be fighting for the benefit of the court.

"Can you tell us your requirements?" asked someone else.

"The first one is the minimum strength of First Cla.s.s," replied w.a.n.g Wei, making people take a deep breath. If that's true, Emperors below First Cla.s.s will become useless.

Worse, they will be shunned by history since they were not ready to bear the t.i.tle of [Heavenly Emperor].

"The other conditions involve the Dao Heart, strategic mind, and personality. After all, we don't want anyone like the Heaven Devour Emperor to control the court."

The faces of the Devil Cultivators changed as they realized the rule directly targeted them.

"What will happen if someone fails your test?" asked Xu s.h.i.+. "Who will bear the responsibility of the Heavenly Emperor?"

"A regent directly chosen from the Dao Opening Sect will hold the position until the next generation."

"What?"

People were not happy. How could they allow the Dao Opening Sect to hold such power? How strong would they be after doing this?

"Relax," said w.a.n.g Wei calmly, making everyone quiet down. "The Regent will not have the power of the Heavenly Emperor–only the benefit."

People sighed in relief. According to their a.n.a.lysis, the Heavenly Emperor has control of the Conferred G.o.d List and can appoint people. As such, they feared the Dao Opening Sect would remove all their appointments and replace them with their people.

But now, they can accept it if they do not have any power. However, a few people knew the immense benefit of this Regent Position.

They knew how difficult it is to cultivate a First Cla.s.s Emperor–let alone one who could meet the requirements to become the

Heavenly Emperor. So, they can foresee that there will not be any ruler of the court for many generations.

During those periods, the Dao Opening Sect will benefit immensely.

"Could there be another way to choose the Regent?"

"No, that's not negotiable," said w.a.n.g Wei. "You should understand my generosity for not filling the court with all members of my factions. So, don't push it."

Many people's hearts trembled as these words alone made them dread. They all wonder how powerful this monster is. Power naturally exuded from his body without even trying.

So they decided to deal with this issue at a later date, preferably after this monster left. However, the wise one felt it would not be simple.

Since the Dao Opening Sect created the court, how could they not leave ways to ensure their power?

As long as that behemoth of an Emperor leaves some of its power as protection, the consequences will be severe. Finally, there is also the opportunity for him to become more powerful before

ascending.
