Novel Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 492

“Before I kill you, I will give you a gift.”

Zhen Chao showed his palm which had a few small floating lights.

My spirit particles.

Yes. I know you revive yourself even if one of them exists so I had to secret track down the ones you scattered in the Endless Void; it was quite a pain.

However I did meet an interested individual called Chu Mo. When I tried to remove the Spirit Particle from his soul it detonated and instantly killed him. I wonder what secrets he knew that you were so cautious.

Wang Wei sighed. One of the backup plans he had to pass this trial was to hide some Spirit Particles in the Endless Void to revive himself later on. However Heavenly Dao seemingly calculated this outcome and took preventive measures.

As for Chu Mo he had memories of Earth; of course Wang Wei would take precautions.

‘This Zhen Chao should have some understanding of Karma or a Karma Treasure to track all my spirit particles.’

Well I guess it does not matter now.

Zhen Yao turned into a gray rainbow before rushing toward Wang Wei to punch him. A magic circle with numerous runes appeared before him blocking the attack and instantly redirecting the force.

Unfortunately Zhen Chao ignored the attack and increased his punch’s force sending Wang Wei flying away. More magic circles appeared on Wang Wei’s path to catch his body and remove the attack’s force.

At the same time many more magic circles appeared around Zhen Chao with myriad chains coming from them to tie him up. But with a wave of his hand he destroyed the chains and the formation.

I almost forgot you were a Grandmaster Array and Talisman Maker; you even reached the stage when you can use Instant Arrays. Unfortunately I am now one too.

[Fate Severing]

Zhen Chao swung his saber to create a swift moon-shaped slash. A temporary transmission array swallowed Wang Wei to teleport him to another direction and evade the attack.

But the moment he appeared Zhen Chao caught his Fate Line and yanked him in his direction before punching him in the face with the 2 Dragon Elephant Force.

Luckily at the last meeting Wang Wei used several techniques to reduce the attack’s impact. He created a Swallowing Talisman to absorb some of the force a Force Redirecting Array to redirect the remaining force of the attack and an Origin Essence barrier.

Nevertheless his skull still cracked under the blow making his head dizzy as he flew away. Zhen Chao did not want to give his opponent the ability to react so he tried to rush to finish the job.

However hundreds of thousands of Arrays appeared around him. From half of these arrays emerged enormous Black Holes while the remaining half contained a Sealing Method.

Zhen Chao used the [Future Buddha Self] to look in the future before frowning. Based on the future he saw he realized he did not wholly inherit the enemy’s power.

For example he used Wang Wei’s knowledge to attack the flaws of these Arrays and destroy them. But he realized some of the arrays were too complex for his current knowledge.

More importantly Wang Wei still had higher calculating powers because of his soul quality. So the speed at which he destroyed the array cannot compare to the rate Wang Wei created them.

So Zhen Chao used his knowledge to destroy some of the Sealing Arrays and his raw strength to forcibly destroyed the others. As for the Black Holes he ignored them even after they exploded.

The explosion of hundred of thousand black holes did injure Zhen Chao; some parts of his body like his arms ribs and head seemed to have been crushed inward. Unfortunately he healed in an instant and returned to his peak state.

Then Zhen Chao’s aura suddenly increased as he boosted himself again with his freedom techniques. Wang Wei cursed internally after seeing this; he thought the latter could not use his Freedom Dao with his power.

But he was wrong; Zhen Chao just wanted to use his power to humiliate him. But now it appeared that he no longer wanted to play. So before Wang Wei could do anything he saw Zhen Chao standing in front of him and his two arms were cut off.

Then Zhen Chao swung his saber to cut off Wang Wei’s legs. But an odd armor appeared to protect him; it was an armor made of runes and magic circles.

‘*Sigh. A perfect combination of Weapon Refining and Array Masters; it could even be considered the pinnacle of both these Professions said Zhen Chao. You’re truly an unparallel genius.

Then Zhen Chao raised his saber to continue chopping; he knew this armor would not last long.

Wang Wei’s face was pale inside the armor as he stopped the bleeding in his arm. He did not care about Zhen Chao’s compliment.

To become a high-level Profession a cultivator needs four things: a lot of Origin Essence Spiritual Strenght comprehension and resources. Spiritual Strenght and comprehension are the most important and the foundation. A lot of Origin Essence is needed to reach the stage where you can create instant Arrays or Talisman.

Additionally all these professions use Divine Runes so they overlap; it is typical for one master in one field to quickly master another with enough time and resources.

As such he did not think it was a big deal that he had such an accomplishment in these fields with his comprehension and Spiritual Strenght. Plus he knew there were probably a few more accomplished people than him in each field and even a few masters who excelled in all of them.

Wang Wei looked at his arm while furrowing his brow. His fleshly body was not completely useless and even a hindrance to him. So he could not use it to heal or regenerate.

Typically he should be able to convert his Origin Essence and the Spiritual Qi inside his Divine Sea into Vitality or Life Energy to heal or have some regeneration capabilities. Or use his Life and Death Innate Talent.

Unfortunately Zhen Chao used his own Duyi Realm against him. So Wang Wei could feel two identical Wills battling inside his arm preventing him from healing.

After slashing his saber three times Wang Wei’s rune Armor broke into millions of pieces. So Zhen Chao went for the finishing move again. However this time a black tortoise’s shell protected Wang Wei.

Emperor Artifact? I have one of those too said Zhen Chao before taking another silver saber out of nowhere. He clashed his sword against the shell making Wang Wei vomit a mouthful of blood. And with each class the latter’s complexion became paler.

‘Damn it this is why I don’t like using Emperor Artifacts’ thought Wang Wei as he felt his Origin Essence being swallowed like it was caught in a black hole. If he was in peak state he could use the blood energy from his fleshly body his Spiritual strength Law and his energy to keep a perfect balance and use the Artifact.

But now his fleshly body and Law were useless and his Spirit Strength was at a high-time low because of all the Quasi-Emperor Instant Formations he used. The only thing he had for him was his energy but now that was a problem.

Wang Wei focused on his Qi Flower to force it to produce more Spiritual Qi as he converted them into Origin Essence. Zhen Chao swung his sword and this time a swallowing power manifested to devour Wang Wei’s Origin Essence and make the situation worse.

‘If I run out of energy not only will the Artifact stop working I will truly be defenseless. In that case there is no need to hesitate.’

Wang Wei concentrated for a moment before his face became very ugly to look at it.

So you’ve finally noticed huh?

Wang Wei did not answer him as he checked again and the result was the same. He discovered a seal in his seal connected to one of his Three Immortal Souls: the [Bright Spirit Soul].

He planned to remove part of the seal to gain access to a little bit of the store Spiritual Strenght to help in his situation. Unfortunately he discovered another seal that blocked his action. What scared him the most is he did not even detect how this seal got inside his soul.

What did you do?

What do you mean? I seal your ultimate trump card said Zhen Chao with a smile without stopping swinging his saber. In response to this Wang Wei sneered.

I know your power and limitation. Although you’ve become stronger after coying my power there is no way you can accomplish such a feat–especially without me noticing.

Haha you’re right. All I can say is the soul of a Fateless is extremely valuable; many beings–some mighty enough to make Great Emperors look like ants–are willing to pay anything to acquire it.

So you’ve sold your soul for the sake of revenge?

It was the only way to kill a monster like you Zhen Chao said momentarily becoming lost in thought. The more I learn about you the more I know your capabilities and strength and the more I despaired. So it was the only way. Anyway I died on that fateful night 120000 years ago.

Wouldn’t it have been better to find a way to resurrect your family?

Oh they will be resurrected.

Wang Wei looked at him but did not say anything further. He understood that there was no point in talking sense to a man whose mind was overwhelmed by revenge.

Zhen Chao waved his hand to manifest a yellow bead: it was another Emperor Artifact. The yellow bead clashed with Wang Wei’s shell while Zhen Chao swung the saber.

After two attacks Wang Wei ran out of Origin Essence. Although he had a second Emperor Artifact in his hand he could not use it. If he did that thing would absorb most of the life span from his cultivation.

Unfortunately the majority of his millions of years of life span came from his fleshly body which is not accessible at the moment since most of his vitality is focused on fighting the Dragon Binding Grass.

Additionally Wang Wei had a feeling Zhen Chao had at least nine Emperor Artifacts to counter all the official ones from the Dao Opening Sect.

So as he lay on the floor with two arms missing and a pale complexion that would make most vampires look healthy he activated the last ability he had to buy himself time: Intangibility.

‘Just a little more’ thought Wang Wei hoping his current ability would last long enough to buy him enough time or that his opponent won’t have a counter.
