Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

1061 Ambassador

Heavenly Court:

While Wang Wei waited for news from Xu Shi, he decided to read the cultivation system of the Martial Hegemony World for the who knows how many times. A world's cultivation system often reflects many things, and he wanted to see if he could be inspired to find a better solution for dealing with that world.

The first step, as in most systems, was Body Tempering. The martial artists in this world began their cultivation journey by tempering their bodies and increasing their Blood Qi. The process was nothing exceptional, at least to Wang Wei's standard.

The second realm was the Inner Strength Realm, a form of Qi that evolved from Blood Qi after combining it with the Spiritual Qi between Heaven and Earth and the meridians in the human body. The second realm had three stages: Qi Refining, Meridian Strengthening, and Acupoints Opening.

Inner Strength was a relatively weak Qi, but its overall potency can be increased through purification, and strengthening the meridians and opening acupoints did so.

The third realm is the Inner Core, and it was a realm similar to the Origin System, where the Qi used in this system was condensed into a core to increase its purity and potency. There is a high chance that Qiyuan was inspired by this cultivation system, given that the Martial Hegemony World was the closest world community to the Myriad Emperor World, and he should have traveled there.

The fourth realm is the Life Realm. Martial artists convert the energy in their Inner Core into pure life energy. A martial artist's overall physical stats drastically increase as vitality increases - especially their regenerative abilities.

The fifth realm is the Death Realm. The extreme of life is death, which is the basis of this cultivation stage. Once martial artists could no longer increase their life energy, they used the opposite - Death Energy - to temper their bodies and increase their strength. This realm is also necessary to balance the body with too much life or positive energy. Additionally, people in this world also have some death-related ability because of the Death Energy.

The sixth realm is the Nirvana Realm or the Life and Death Realm. Martial artists will use the constant evolution of life and death energy to break the limit of their bodies; this realm is very dangerous and must be traversed with extreme care. It's also the realm that best demonstrates a person's talent and foundation displayed by the number of Nirvana a Heaven Chosen survived.

The seventh realm is the Martial Will Realm. A martial artist must create his or her own martial art or train a previous one to a high enough level that his or her soul, spirit, and will sublimate to a higher level. The martial will manifests as a rune in their Sea of Consciousness.

Some talented individuals will also be granted a Heaven Martial Art-a created martial art that is so wonderful and "perfect" that Heavenly Dao will bless it to make it unique and more powerful. The Martial Will/Rune will turn golden as a sign that someone has a Heaven Martial Art.

Wang Wei noted that this realm is what makes this system unique or competitive to the best systems in the Endless Void. In just one realm, cultivators must condense their soul, temper their Dao Heart (without sufficient level, it's impossible to condense a martial will), and begin to get involved with Willpower. Martial Artists in this system will find it easier to manifest their Willpower because of this cultivation stage.

The eighth realm is the Enlightenment Realm, a fancy way of saying the Law Comprehension Realm. With their Martial Will, martial artists now have access to the laws of Heaven and Earth and can comprehend and wield them. Heaven Martial Arts will become even more powerful once they are fused with the Power of Law.

The ninth realm is the Golden Body Realm. This realm has changed over the history of the Martial Hegemony World. Previously, martial artists would use the laws of Heaven and Earth to baptize their bodies and elevate them to a higher level. However, this realm was eventually changed after knowing this would block their way to the True Power Dao Realm.

The Golden Body Realm now involves taking one martial art that a cultivator feels embodies themselves, their spirit, goals, and ambitions and combining it with the Laws of Heaven and Earth to manifest that martial art into reality. In other words, it's another version of the Dharma Body.

The Golden Body has five divisions: Brass, Copper, Iron, Silver, and Gold. Iron is the minimum requirement to hold the Heaven Will. Martial artists in this system can fuse with the Golden Body to become Quasi-Emperors.

"Using the rotation of life (yin) and death (yang) to temper the body? It would probably help to add it to the training regiment," muttered Wang Wei.

Martial Hegemony World:

After leaving the court, Xu Shi visited the Academy briefly before heading in her direction. With a few steps, she crossed the separation between world communities and arrived at her destination.

Xu Shi pondered the best approach as she looked over this world that shared much of her rise and history. As a sign of respect, she decided not to barge in directly but released her aura and waited.

Not long afterward, three individuals showed up: two men and one woman. The man in the middle was thin with long arms, a scar on his neck, and wearing blue. On his right was a middle-aged woman in black tight-fitting martial clothes; she was extremely fit as her arms were toned and muscular; she wore iron gloves.

The one on the left was a young man with one of those sinister faces or smiles and a saber hanging on his waist; it did not help that he was wearing deep greens that reminded people of poison.

'One Eternal and two Immortal Sovereigns,' thought Xu Shi, who knew of this information since Wang Wei did not want her to go in blind and she had her own information system.

As such, she knew these people had only recently appeared, which was most likely the result of the Balance Mechanism.

Her eyes focused on the thin man in the middle.

"Duel Ax Qian Heng, long time no see."

"It's you," said the thin man as he instinctively touched the scar on his neck. Although it took him a moment to recognize her since she never appeared without a face cover, he would never forget that voice or the temperament of the woman who scarred his body and gave him the greatest humiliation in his life.

Qian Heng's eyes went red momentarily before he said with gritted teeth, "Why are you here?"

"Why the hostility? You can't still be bitter about your defeat?"

"I am not prideful enough not to let one defeat regulate my life," said Qian Heng. "But you! You come to our world, take our Heaven's Will, and abandon your status as a citizen without hesitation. Do you think you would still be welcome?"

"That's fair," sighed Xu Shi. She told Wang Wei this would happen. Unfortunately, only she and Ao Shen have any connection to the Martial Hegemony World, and the dragon only has terrible memories from there and refuses the offer to be the ambassador.

"Why are you here?" asked Qian Heng, trying very hard to regulate his emotions and control himself.

"I came on behalf of the Myriad Emperor World's Heavenly Court; I need to discuss⌜€“"

Xu Shi had not even finished her words when Qian Heng summoned his proving Dao Artifact-two axes. His golden body was based on an ax-wielding martial art he created, so he used the axe part as his Proving Dao Artifact.

Without hesitation, he appeared before her and slashed down; the sheer power of his attack split the Endless Void full of chaotic space-time energy. However, Xu Shi calmly evaded while frowning: "Why did you attack me without words?"

"Although I did not want to believe it, the rumors were true," said Qian Heng with glowing red eyes. "You've returned with the intention of invading us!"

"What rumors are you talking about?"

"So, your first instinct is not to refute the claim but to want to find the source," sneered the female Immortal Sovereign, known as Lightning Fist.

"There is no need to say all these words with a foreigner. So, let's just cut her up into pieces," added the Snake Saber Immortal Sovereign, licking his saber while looking at Xu Shi with dangerous eyes.

"I'm just trying to prevent any contradictions."

"Can you look me in the eyes and tell me you're not here to invade?" asked Qian Heng, and Xu Shi paused, "Depends on how you respond to my message."

"I knew it," yelled Qian Heng before attacking again. Xu Shi calmly evaded while explaining, "Listen to my words first."

"No need. All of you invaders are the same," countered Qian Heng, relentless in his attack. Sadly, he and Xu Shi seem to have an obvious speed disparity.

"Come together," he ordered, and the others joined the fight.
