Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Sovereign Ji Wen did his best to appease the people as this negative mood has been affecting the Dynasty’s Qi Luck. However, he was only partially successful. With each city that Sun Jiaolong takes over, the morale of the people becomes lower--even if he manages to recapture some of them back quite rapidly.

Sovereign Ji Wen was dealing with military affairs when he suddenly felt something, and it was not just him. Everyone felt it--even the mortal. To be precise, everyone saw it.

A gigantic palm that covered the entire city slowly fell towards it. The palm exuded a terrifying pressure, making most cultivators unable to breathe properly. More important, everyone knew that if it hit, the entire city would be destroyed instantly.

Of course, this did not happen. As soon as the palm reached a certain level, the formation protected the city activated, and the attack was blocked.

"Who dares to be impudent in my dynasty!" roared Sovereign Ji Wen as he instantly appeared floating above the city. Soon though, he saw the people responsible for the attack; to be exact, 20 people.

"Puppets?" Immediately, he realized that these people or things were not alive, but Supreme Tier Puppets.

’Could these people be sent by Great Wu? That’s impossible. Given their foundation, they should not have such powerful puppets.’

Then, Ji Wen used his Divine Sense to scan a few million miles outside of the city, searching for something.

’No people controlling them? Or are they able to hide from me? I guess it does not matter given the current situation.’

He waved his hand, a multicolored dragon appeared in front of everyone. The Qi Luck Dragon roared, then immediately afterward, the aura around the puppets slowly decreased. In just a few seconds, their strength was reduced to the Saint Realm, and it kept on decreasing.

However, a golden light flashed from their bodies, then their strength stopped decreasing. On top of that, they returned to their peak states.

"What power is that?" muttered Sovereign Ji Wen.

"It should belong to the [Human Destiny Sword]," responded one of the many Supreme Tier that appeared next to him.

"So, it is those damn snakes of Great Wu. but how did they get their hands on such powerful puppets? Last that I know, they never had any Refiners that specialize in this field, let alone be powerful enough to create Supreme Tier ones."

"This is not important right now, your majesty. The important thing is to find a way to deal with these two Quasi-Emperor Puppets."

’Should I open the Emperor Formations? No, the price is too big, and with the current war, this is not the best move. In that case, I can only do that...’

Ji Wen took out a jade talisman and crushed it. Soon after that, two extremely powerful auras manifested themselves deep from the Royal Palace.

Then, two old men with white hair and beard appeared in the sky. Their bodies looked sickly as they were as skinny as bones. A breath of death and decay surrounded them. They looked at the puppets in the sky, then at Ji Wen before nodding to him.

The two Quasi-Emperor opened their mouth and swallowed, then the spiritual energy in the following few Domains was instantly swallowed by them. In front of everybody, their bodies slowly returned to normal.

They grew muscles, their skins were no longer rough like paper sands, their eyes no longer dull and listless; they looked more normal now. Unfortunately, the decay breath surrounding them did not disappear.

After regaining their vigors, they rushed to fight the two Quasi-Emperors. Knowing the potential destruction that their battle could reach, they dragged the puppets outside of the world, in the Endless Void.

In fact, all the other True Monarchs did the same. Meanwhile, Sovereign Ji Wen kept the formation activated to prevent other people from sneak-attack the capital, while the other officials went around appeasing the people.

Unfortunately, as a result of this, no one actually noticed the invisible shadow that sneak into the Palace.

This battle lasted for a few hours, and many people secretly watched the confrontation between these two Imperial Dynasties.

After the war, Sovereign Ji Wen had a meeting with his officials.

"Primine Minister, what do you think about this attack?"

"It was very strange; there is no way that they believe such an assault would work, so they might have another reason for their attack," replied Zhao Yan.

"Any ideas?"

"The best theory we can come up with is that they either wanted us to waste resources by activating the Emperor Formation, or they wanted is to wake the Sleeping Supreme Elders."

Everyone sighed after hearing this. During this battle, the two Quasi-Emperor puppets were partially destroyed but still escaped along with all the others. In times, they can be repaired, however, the same cannot be said for these Supreme Elders.

The reason that they sealed themselves in the first place was that their lifespans reacher their end, but now that they have woken up, they can only live for up to 20 years.

Also, since their blood vitality has been exhausted, they can no longer reseal themselves. As such, the Great Zhou Dynasty just lost two Quasi-Emperor at the cost of rendering these two puppets usable for a few decades.

This is a great loss for them since they are in the middle of a war.

"How about we also attack their capital?"

"They are probably expecting such an outcome, and we would probably be walking into a trap."

"So, are we supposed to do nothing after this?"

"We could wake up the Sleeping Ancestors."

"That’s prosperous. You should know that unless the dynasty is on his last breath, they will and cannot intervene," answered Sovereign Ji Wen to this suggestion. Of course, what he did not say was that some of them might even watch as the dynasty crumbled and disappeared as this would be a relief for them.

"Plus, the situation has not become so dire. We just have to focus on winning that war."

Everyone nodded their heads before continuing their discussions on how to win this war.

Meanwhile, Sun Jiaolong was receiving someone in Ice Glaze City. He looked at the hooded person in front of him and asked him: "Is everything done accordingly?"

"Yes, sir."

"Was there any problem in the process?"

"No."

Sun Jiaolong instantly appeared in front of the person, held his head, and squeezed it until his cranium and brain were crushed.

"Sorry, I cannot take any risk of my plan leaking." He then looked in the direction of Great Zhou and muttered: "Now that the seed has been planted, all I have to do is wait for it to bear fruit."

Sun Jiaolong walked to his army and ordered: "From now on, we will slow down the march."

...

Southern Vermillion Bird Continent, a Supreme Land called Soaring Lantern Valley. Inside a cultivation cave, a young man dressed in black sat in the lotus position, and a book floated in front of him.

Black Qi continuously entered his body, then, his body exploded into countless pieces. However, soon afterward, a mysterious power reassembled his body again.

The young repeated the process hundreds of times before stopping, then he opened his eyes--which were full of vicissitudes.

"Finally refined this Life and Death Book using the immortality granted by this world’s Heavenly Dao," muttered the young man. "This could be considered something good since my luck has been so poor since coming to this world."

The young man stood up to stretch his body.

’Now, there are three issues I need to deal with. The first is to find a way to create a new body as my Primordial Spirit does not agree completely with this one.

’Second, I need to quickly regain my Supreme Realm strength. Lastly, I need to find a way to get an Identity Token to participate in this World’s Heaven Will Battle. The Soaring Valley is too weak to have such a thing, nor do they have enough resources for me to back to my peak and beyond.’

After making his plan, he left his seclusion cave. Outside, a few maids were waiting for him, and as soon as they saw him, they all bowed in unison while saying:

"Young Master Huang Yuan."

Huang Yuan nodded his head before saying: "Tell the Sect Master and Elders that I’m going to the Eastern Continent."

After that, he ignored the worshipping eyes of these maids and flew away.
