Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

1095 Behind-The- Scenes

Emperor Jia's eyes could see all the trillions of atoms and particles, each dodging his attacks. He squinted his eyes before using a rune that forces all [Essence, Spirit, and Qi] to take one solid and concentrated form. As such, Wang Wei's body reorganized into a whole.

A light spear rushed towards Wang Wei's head, and it was too fast for him to evade, so he used his Bone Substitution to avoid death. He then punched the sky using the Dragon Zodiac Art, trying to destroy the Disruption Concept of this technique.

Sadly, this method failed. Although this technique had the weakest effect on the flesh, it still disrupted it. Additionally, after injuring him, these light beams or arrows further corrupted or disrupted his flesh.

Three more arrows pierced Wang Wei's body, and his aura further weakened. His eyes did not move from Emperor Jia and this technique; his mind was constantly analyzing the situation and coming up with a solution. He knew the best method to use was to overwhelm this place with his Willpower through Willpower Manifestation.

However, he would not do so because he had predicted that Emperor Jia had prepared for three of his advantages: the pill, his soul, and his willpower.

[Cry of Pain]

Wang Wei opened his mouth and roared; he mixed a sonic attack with his [Pain Talent]. This method worked as Emperor Jia held his head, and his nose bled profusely. Wang Wei rushed forward, trying to touch him, and maybe placed an Innate Fate Shackle on him.

Alas, a rune appeared behind Emperor Jia to absorb his pain. Meanwhile, Wang Wei had to evade the arrows and rain constantly, and a few still hit him.

Bang!

Wang Wei sensed great danger from behind, and his body acted out instinct, activating the Void Power in his flesh, entering an intangible and all-encompassing state. However, he lost his left arm from this black beam attack despite his actions. His eyes shone brilliantly as he found a way to deal with this situation [Everything Returns to Nothingness]

He instantly released all the power of nothingness in his flesh to reduce the power of Disruption into nothingness. However, as proven by his missing arm, it was not enough to destroy this technique but bought him enough time. In his immediate surroundings, Wang Wei could now barely use his Dao, and he immediately acted.

[Rewriting Order]

He used a technique he created on the spot. Through his Fate and Order-Disorder Dao, he recreated all the orders, disorders, truths, and Daos of the universe. In other words, he recreated the universe as it was, removing all the dao disruption of Emperor Jia.

A golden light appeared on Wang Wei's palm, and after releasing it, the broken chains on the sky mended themselves, returning to their original state. The Grand Dao Source appeared in the form of this vast river of space composed of chains, signaling he had regained control of his Dao.

"This was a brilliant technique," praised Wang Wei. However, Emperor Jia only sighed as he knew what fate awaited him.

"Any chance you cannot completely kill me?" he asked calmly.

"That's not impossible," replied Wang Wei.

"Oh?"

"I can prevent your revival until I've grown to the point you're not much of a threat," said Wang Wei. "However, you must know I will destroy the Spirit Genesis Sect. If you show the slightest discontent, I will annihilate you by then."

"That's fine," replied Emperor Jia. He could rebuild the sect after he revived, and that's assuming the ones in the upper dimension would not try to do it themselves.

"Do you want to continue fighting or resist?" asked Wang Wei.

"Although I know I won't win, I will fight until the end." He technically had five extra lives; however, his strength would drastically decrease after using one, so this was his only chance of still winning this fight.

"Fair."

Wang Wei watched as countless potent runes appeared behind Emperor Jia, preparing for desperate attacks. He pointed his one arm to the sky:

[Fate Shackles: Words Have No Power]

An enormous gray chain materialized above him before entering a projection of the River of Fate. From then on, the laws of this infinite space were changed: words, languages, and runes no longer had any powers or strength. The runes around Emperor Jia dissipated, and even his book became dimmer.

'A technique based on my own that targets my Dao,' he sighed. Part of him regretted walking this path. Otherwise, his battle experience would not have been so subpar, and he would not have lost this fight. Magic circles appeared underneath him, and he found himself incapable of moving.

The one-armed Wang Wei appeared before him, and Emperor Jia lost consciousness; despite the latter's surrounder, he did not want him to resist. With any defensive measures, Wang Wei could see Emperor Jia's past and learn the truth, and it was as he theorized - the latter found the inheritance on a secret dimension.

Wang Wei muttered an incantation, and a portal appeared to drop a talisman with the inheritance, and he used it after checking there were no problems. The inheritance was about cultivating an Innate Dao Body, allowing someone to enter the Taboo Realm.

The first step of this inheritance was the Paradox Ceremony, which allowed someone to tweak True Heavenly Dao's records to essentially render its program malfunctioning and hiding under its sight.

'It's like installing malware on a system to exploit it,' thought Wang Wei, slightly surprised. He thought the entire Paradox was similar to how Gu Xian's Deception worked, where True Heavenly Dao allowed it as it was a part of the game. But no, this method actually tricked such an existence ⌜€“ at least, to a certain level.

This method only went as far as the fifth reincarnation because, after the sixth, True Heavenly Dao would notice the problem and fix it. So, the inheritance encouraged its owner to travel to a Chaos World that is not part of the primary 3800 to continue the remaining reincarnation. Although it did not say why, Wang Wei deduced the truth: the power ceiling of True Heavenly Dao on these Chaos Worlds is Paragon Tier instead of Half-Step Transcendence, meaning they are easier to trick.

'This Paradox Ceremony involves countless systems and knowledge probably not from the Eternal Ascension World. The creator must be a well-traveled individual in Primordial Chaos and has studied True Heavenly Dao extensively.'

Wang Wei finished the preliminary processing of this inheritance; the thing should be very beneficial for many things, including his goal of creating a unique Dao Body to enter the Taboo Realm. So, he focused on how to deal with Emperor Jia. Firstly, he copied the latter's Rune Book; he knew Wu Hong should be very interested in this thing, especially the Disruption Rune.

Secondly, he sealed the Four Symbol Mirror and put it in his interdimensional space. Lastly was Emperor Jia's body.

'It's not feasible for me to reincarnate, but what if I absorb his body?' Wang Wei could imagine the benefit of having such a foundation, and it might be possible for him to enter the Taboo Realm without relying on the Dark Truth. He raised his remaining hand to start the process before stopping midway.

'Something is wrong,' said Wang Wei, lowering his hand and thinking. 'I've assumed this inheritance is from Madman Chu and thus safe, but thinking deeply about it, I realize it may not be from him. This writing was different: it did not contain his cold and calculative tones, like a mad scientist; it did not even contain his rambling madness that often creeps out.'

His brow furrowed as he further analyzed the situation.

'Emperor Jia said I was responsible for messing with his fifth reaction, but I did no such thing. I doubt a person of his caliber would make such a mistake even if it were his intuition, so what's the cause of him feeling that way?'

The answer immediately popped in his mind:

'I did it, but not the current me - it was my future self. So, why would I interfere in Emperor Jia's reincarnation across space and time? Is it simply to hand over this inheritance? Is it a way to tell me Wu Hong's Perfect Foundation is not the way?'

Wang Wei grunted in frustration; it was a pain having to deduce future events with limited information about the present.

'Another possibility is Emperor Jia is someone else's pawn, and my future self disrupted his reincarnation to deal with him. If that's the case, this person might be targeting me. If they knew my personality, they could deduce my instinct would be to swallow Emperor Jia, fucking me and my future self in the process by altering the past.'

Wang Wei's back began to drip with cold sweat as he realized his greed and natural capitalist tendencies almost screwed him over. Luckily, he understood the idea that he must control his mind and emotions to escape the shackles of fate.

'The question is, who is my enemy this time? They are obviously working with Grand Dao.' Two names appeared in his mind.
