Novel Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 456

“What’s wrong, husband?” asked one of the concubines.

I recently had a feeling that something bad will happen replied Lin Fan.

Really? With your strength who could pose a threat to you?

That’s right. Maybe you are overthinking things.

Many of the concubines agreed with this statement. Their husband is currently the most powerful Heaven Chosen in the world. Additionally he recently brought 3 Dao Source Seed which further elevated his status in the Academy.

More importantly his actions increased the status of these concubines from the lower realm since now one of the Elders will soon become a Dao Ancestor.

So even if something happened in the Enlightening Emperor Academy they can still have some status in this world.

Not necessarily. Powerful cultivators usually have an intuition for danger so husband you should take this seriously replied Mu Chunhua the former Saintess of the Heavy Water Sect and Lin Fan’s first wife.

Sister Chunhua is correct added Xu Shi. Have you tried to find out the reason?

I did. I tried divination and Yin-Yang Calculation but nothing worked replied Lin Fan; this was his primary source of frustration.

Did you tell the sect’s elders? asked Mu Chunhua.

I don’t think this is a problem that merits their attention–at least not yet.

Mu Chunhuan frowned after hearing this. She wanted to convince him; however thinking how stubborn her husband can be she did not know how to do so.

I understand that you want to deal with this situation alone but it would be best to notify them especially if your safety is involved said Xu Shi while caressing his hair.

Additionally you can go to the Heaven Mystery Pavillion; aren’t they an expert in this kind of thing?

A flash of brilliance appeared in Lin Fan’s eyes. This is indeed a good idea. However the pavilion has closed its mountain for a few thousand years now.

They would be more than willing to make an exception with your identity.

Excellent idea as you usual Shi’er. I can always rely on you.

Xu Shi smiled but did not take the compliment to mind. She understood that her husband changed considerably after surviving the trial. And he probably already had the same idea but wanted to allow her to shine.

As for the reasons? One to establish her dominance in this harem and two to increase her confidence.

Thinking of this Xu Shi could not help but remember a few thousand years ago during that meeting when that man coldly told her that she was nothing but a vase.

A flash of hatred and determination appeared on her face. She then looked at Lin Fan with adoration and love.

‘I will support my husband to be one of the greatest Eternal Emperors the world has ever seen. By then we will see who the vase is.’

Lin Fan quickly left. He planned to visit the Heaven Mystery Pavillion. He did not intend to tell the Academy about his intuition. The Slaughter Trial made him accustomed to doing things alone.

After contacting his Dao Protector Qiu Jin who notified the headmaster the two quickly rushed to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

With a very well-hidden sorrow panic and resentment the Pavilion Master opened the formation to let Lin Fan in before leading him to see Old Chu.

The old diviner was slightly surprised by Lin Fan’s words. However he did not correlate with Wang Wei since his memories no longer had his memories.

Nevertheless he still wondered why the top 3 Heaven Chosens came to see him personally in just a thousand years.

Youg master Lin Fan you have to understand that divination is not absolute and I cannot easily deduce or reveal the secrets of Heaven. So I might not find the cause of your problems.

I understand this: as long as you do your best I’ll accept the final result replied Lin Fan.

Those are the words that Old Chu wanted to hear. This time he did not even use the Emperor Artifact that he received from Di Tian. So he nodded his head before beginning.

Only a few people knew of its existence and Old Chu did not want the world to discover this news. Although their sect was an Immortal Lineage he knew that many of such Lineages or even Dao Lineages wouldn’t hesitate to start a war for it.

The last time he had no choice since Sacred Son Wang Wei came with terrifying killing intent and the knowledge that Di Tian came here. However the same cannot apply to Lin Fan.

He was more amiable and lacked some critical pieces of information.

Nevertheless Old Chu still did use the new Emperor’s Scriptures–[Eight Trigram Myriad World Sect Guide]. Of course he did not know that even if he used it he would not discover anything.

And it was not because Heavenly Dao blocked most secrets regarding the Outlaw Trial; it was because Wang Wei secretly left something on his body to prevent other Outlaws from divining any information.

He prepared in advance since he knew Lin Fan was a Supreme Outlaw like him.

The symbol of Eight Trigram appeared behind him as his eyes turned completely black.

A few minutes later Old Chu returned to normal while shaking his head: I could not deduce the secrets of Heaven. I cannot find the source of young master Lin Fan’s anxiety.

Lin Fan frowned while Qiu Jin sneered: Old Chu are you trying to fool us? Why didn’t you even use the [8 Trigram Turtle Shell]?

It’s not that I don’t want to but I can’t.

What do you mean?

Old Chu hesitated to answer; he did not want to appear as if he was instigating these two titans.

Say it.

A few thousand years ago the Dao Opening Sect came to borrow the shell but it is still in their possession Old Chu said while wisely choosing his words.

Qiu Jin frowned as he remembered important news in that period. The Dao Opening Sect did visit the Heaven Mystery Pavilion which was a big deal amongst the upper echelons of most Emperor Lineages.

And that was because the sect slightly broke the Immortal-Avenue Pact as an Immortal Venerable appeared so early in the world and visited the pavilion.

After figuring things out Qiu Jin looked at Lin Fan and asked through Divine Sense: What are you going to do now?

Lin Fan was deep in thought. He comprehended the Laws of Yin-Yang and the Laws of Fate. However he mostly used the former for battle and is only proficient in basic calculations.

As for Fate the same applied. He can only do basic divinations but he is an expert in anti-divination. He had to prevent his opponent from gathering information on him.

Additionally he planned to use his Laws of Fate to reduce the strength of Wang Wei when they fought. At first he planned to cultivate to a level when he could suppress the latter in his field of expertise.

That way he could both defeat his opponent and humiliate him.

Unfortunately Lin Fan quickly realized that the Dao of Fate did not have much battle strength in the early stages and required a lot of creativity to use in battle. And in that trial he did not have time to develop this Dao when he could die at any moment.

He had to focus on the Laws that granted him more battle strength or survivability.

‘Since my intuition is warning me of some danger I just need a way that can evade the ultimate danger: death.’

Lin Fan replied to Qiu Jin: I need a Death Substitute Talisman.

Huuum with your state of mind tempered in the trial there is no way for you to become overreliant on the talisman or overconfident because you have a pass at death.

However I still need to get the headmaster’s approval.

After their secret communication the two left the Heaven Mystery Pavilion and Old Chu escorted them out along with the Pavilion Master.

Master when will he ever stop being so humiliated by these Emperor’s Lineages?

In the Myriad Emperor World their pavilion is famous for its divination and information-gathering ability. Using this fame they can even release lists ranking many things–including the Heaven Chosens of each generation.

As a result the pavilion is respected worldwide by many cultivators. Many people envy them and their status. However only they know that despite how things looked from the outside they still have to bow their heads to these powerful Emperor Lineages; otherwise they will suffer disaster.

Isn’t the answer obvious? replied Old Chu with a deep sigh. Only when we have an Emperor of our own will things change for the better.

After hearing this answer the Pavillion Master had a desolate look on his face; he did not have any hope for that happening soon. However Old Chu was more optimistic.

And that was because of the #4 Fate Puppeteer Physique. He knew that since Heavenly Dao recognized this physique some other people in the future would be born with it.

If their sects could get their hands on them they could use their understanding of Fate and the current owner of the physique as a model to possibly cultivate a Great Emperor.

The only problem is that the Dao Opening Sect and many other sects will also try this method and a little luck is required for success.

In the Emperor Enlightenment Academy Qiu Jin brought Lin Fan the talisman a week after returning. The headmaster was more than willing to sacrifice some of the Academy’s Qi Luck to refine one for him.

They finally have the opportunity to cultivate their 9th Emperor so they must protect their investment at all costs.

After receiving the talisman Lin Fan felt at ease; as long as he could save his life everything would be fine.

Husband how about we go on a vacation to celebrate with only the two of us? asked Xu Shi.

What suddenly brought this on?

Well you’ve been gone for so many years. And after you returned you only focused on cultivating. I just thought that we could spend some alone time together.

Lin Fan looked at his favorite wife and smiled; he realized she was correct. He has been busy for some time now and spent a little time with her.

The last time they were genuinely alone was a couple of hundred years ago during that weird beach party.

You’re right. Do you have anywhere specific you want to go?

Yes. My father built a mansion for me with an artificial beach as a landscape. We can enjoy ourselves there and show you all the new bikinis I designed.

Lin Fan’s eyes lighted up imagining such a picture so he became more excited.

Alright let’s not waste time and go immediately.”
