Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

[Unedited Chapter]

-----

Wang Wei nodded in satisfaction after seeing Commander Shi Ping's battle. The man made all the correct choices, so although this battle was tragic, he still won beautifully. 'Their civilization is already Tier 8, and they have almost cracked Tier 9 rune technology.'

The mortal civilization would not accept staying at Tier 8 and has been studying how to create puppets, armor, and even Tier 9 battleships. They couldn't recreate the Origin System's Dharma Body — at least not yet — so Wang Wei suggested they go the path of domain evolution. In many cultivation systems, domains are the foundation for a [World of Law], and that's the path these mortals chose.

Their idea is to follow the same method of Law Resonance between ships or puppets to create a domain. However, they will instead increase the number of ships, and if they arrange them using knowledge about arrays, they could build a world of law, allowing them to confront Tier 9 cultivators.

They have made great strides in this technology, but Wang Wei also encouraged them to try alternate methods, for example, the path of pure energy. If these mortals can condense and control enough energy, they can injure Tier 9 cultivators; in other words, he encouraged them to learn from the Pure Qi cultivation system.

They were very receptive to this idea. The Eternal Ascension World is full of the incredible energy called [Dao Qi]. It's everywhere in the environment, and it is more versatile than Spirit Qi. With access to such a great energy source, why not use it? So, after the suggestion, these rune engravers immediately started.

Unfortunately, they soon realized that controlling such vast energy was quite challenging once the level was high enough to hurt Tier 7. So, someone suggested turning all the Qi into pure physical matter for better control. This suggestion resulted in the design of a puppet bigger than the observable universe. Wang Wei was shocked once he saw the design; these mortals went and invented Gundams. Fate was an interesting thing.

Wang Wei looked at the meeting of all the lords. Over 4 years ago, Du Cong won the election and became the High Chancellor. Since then, he has reduced his presence before these mortals.

'Soon, I won't have to worry too much about you,' Wang Wei thought, nodding in satisfaction. Did he understand that Grand Dao was playing him so he could use more ideas from Earth to develop these mortals? He knew, but that would not stop him from doing it. Grand Dao's move is a double-edged sword. These mortals can be of great help to Wang Wei in the future, especially since he knew he might be responsible for the All-Haven Fate Calamity.

Grand Dao might use his ideas in other Chaos Worlds, but the mortal civilization in the Eternal Ascension World is the original version, and they will be one of Wang Wei's greatest aid/weapons.

Wang Wei waved his hand to dismiss most of the screens before him, leaving one map that showed how far this plague had spread. He sent the information about evil monks to Buddhism, hoping that would help.

"Sage Pure Flame, where are you?" Wang Wei uttered. The crux of solving this matter is this bastard, but he is so slippery. He has shown up a few times in the past years, but no one has been able to catch him. Wang Wei raised his palm, summoning the Heaven Secret Crystal. If everything fails, he'll have to use this crystal to find Pure Flame, but he felt it was a waste to use something so valuable on that bastard.

Wang Wei closed his eyes to access his Soul Network and communicate with others while also monitoring the situation. The world continued to evolve, and 20 years passed. The mortals finally developed their 9-A humongous puppet and made great strides in their World Law. Their war of civilization with the cultivators continued and was reaching the point where Wang Wei and the others would only protect them from Tier 10 and above cultivators. Meanwhile, this plague curse continued to spread, sending the entire world into a panic state.

"There is no need to hesitate," Wang Wei said as he held the crystal. If there is any more hesitation, the situation will reach an irreversible state. However, just as he was about to activate it, he felt a slight change between Heaven and Earth. Wang Wei immediately observed but found nothing. He tried a few calculations with the same result.

"What just happened?" Whatever event has occurred or is occurring is enough to affect Heaven and Earth, meaning it's of great significance. However, it also seems the people involved have blocked the world's secrets to prevent others from spying.

Wang Wei's communication talisman vibrated, and he activated it, showing an image of Red Mask. "Did you get any news?"

"A coup is happening in the Great Chu Divine Court."

"Oh? Who is so brave? Is it the Third Prince?"

"That's right."

"Interesting. I wonder where he got the confidence to fight against Shu Ren from. Did he know he was currently in a weakened state? Did you reveal the news?"

"Yes."

"But you didn't tell me?"

"Apologies, my lord. My original intention was to work with the Third Prince, and once everything was set up, I would bring it up. However, it seems he cut me off and found another partner."

Wang Wei groaned. Red Mask has developed this bad habit of doing things before reporting. She probably thought she was taking loads from Wang Wei's shoulder and reducing his stress, but all he sees when she does this is that she's creating unknown variables that he may not be aware of.

"This is the last time I will say this — don't act on your own again," Wang Wei warned. "Any other time, I would appreciate your initiative, but not now — understand?"

"Yes, lord," Red Mask replied as she knelt on one knee.

"Anything else you did you didn't report?"

"I've made contact with Shi Ruolan — she is our inside contact in Great Chu."

"Her? Such a name brings back memories," Wang Wei commented. "I thought she was a secret child."

"After she proved the Dao, the Earth Emperor brought her back to the palace," Red Mask explained.

"He probably wanted to monitor her better," Wang Wei sneered. "What's her current strength?"

"She's still a Great Emperor."

"As expected," he nodded. "Can you get a visual on what is happening?"

"I'll try my best."

Wang Wei had to wait for half an hour, but soon, he saw a projection of what was going on in Great Chu. The Third Prince, a suave young man with bright red hair and black clothes, led an army to attack his father's palace. The Imperial Guards tried their best to defend the palace and prevent the prince's entry, but they were outmatched military-wise, and that's not mentioning the people secretly supporting this coup.

Wang Wei watched as the third prince slowly and methodically eradicated all of the palace's defenses before heading inside.

"How are you!" roared an indignant voice. Shu Ren finally showed up. The prince calmly looked at the hooded man next to him.

"He's indeed weakened."

"But he is still a Paragon."

"It doesn't matter," the hooded man replied. "My plan was never to kill him in a direct frontal confrontation."

"Well, I'll trust you again."

The hooded man flew toward Shu Ren. "Who are you?" the Earth Emperor asked.

"Don't you remember me, your majesty?" The hooded man revealed his appearance.

"Prime Minister — no, I should call you Paragon Jimin."

"There is no need to be so cold," Jimin said casually. "After all, I've served you for many years."

Shu Ren looked at his son and snorted coldly: "That's your confidence? A newborn Paragon that has fallen down from his realm?" However, the third prince simply smiled at him; he had this demeanor that everything was under control.

"Alright, enough chit chat," Paragon Jimin said. Over the years, he was able to return to the peak of the Empyrean Realm. The lock did not affect him since he was not cultivating but regaining his strength. However, although his cultivation was low, he could still sublimate himself and return to his peak for a short period.

Jimin's aura increased, and he immediately fought with Shu Ren. Their battle lasted for an hour, and despite his weakened state, Shu Ren had the advantage during most of the battle. However, it appeared that Jimin's goal was to hold him off for as long as possible. Once that was done, he evacuated along with the prince.

'That's it?' Wang Wei thought, feeling there was more to this than meets the eye, and he was right. A few minutes later, a terrifying vision enveloped Shu Ren's territory, followed by the third prince's voice echoing between Heaven and Earth:

"Emperor Shu Ren is cold, cruel, and heartless. Instead of focusing on the prosperity of his people, he abused his right to rule, doing everything possible to keep his power — he did not even spare his children.

"Heaven and Earth above, I, Third Prince Shi Nianzu, see his nature and cannot accept the decline of Great Chu, so I decide to take things into my own hands. I will build the Southern Chu Dynasty, hoping to free my people from suffering."

As he uttered these words, the Qi Luck Dragon of Great Chu suddenly roared in pain before being divided into two.
