Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Southern Continent, Origin Pill Dao Sect:

Wang Wei flew from his cave towards his master. After entering, he saw old man Ye Lao sitting cross-legged waiting for him.

"Master, you summoned me?"

"Have you heard of the Secret Realm that was discovered in the Northern Continent three months ago?"

"I’ve heard rumors from the disciples, but I do not know much about it," replied Wang Wei.

"Well, a few sects have discussed and decided that only disciples in the Void Shattering Realm and below can enter. So, I’m asking if you are interested in entering?"

Wang Wei pretended to ponder about this issue for a while. Ye Lao–who wanted his disciple to participate–said: "Originally, many people only wanted Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators and below to enter, however, the Dao Opening Sect insisted that Void Shattering Realm be allowed.

"I do not understand their purposes in doing so. However, this is not bad news for us as your senior brothers and sisters can also participate."

"Master, which senior brother is going as well?"

"You first senior brother and third senior sister will be attending. If you encounter a problem, they can help you."

"What about second senior brother?"

"He’s going into seclusion, so he will not be attending. So, what’s your decision?"

"No problem, master. I have a feeling that this Secret Realm is my chance to rise," replied Wang Wei with a smile on his face.

"You’re probably just happy to have a chance to spend time with your third senior sister."

"Master, don’t tease me."

"Alright, I won’t intervene in you youngster’s things," said Ye Lao. "Do you have any other questions or concerns?"

"Yes, master. Do you have any information regarding this Secret Realm?"

"So far, aside from knowing that it contains a large number of resources, we do not know much yet. The core of the Secret Realm is protected by many formations that even Supreme Realms cannot easily go through."

"Master, does that mean that True Monarchs will also enter the Secret Realm?

"Yes."

"I’m confused. I thought only people in the Void Shattering Realm and below could enter.:

"This is referring to the outer area," replied Ye Lao. "The True Monarchs will only stay in the core area, and are prevented from interfering with the disciple’s fights."

Wang Wei nodded his head, then Ye Lao gave him a space ring.

"Inside contains a Heaven Grade Artifact. This should protect you against Void Shattering Realm powerhouses. Additionally, there are a few Escaping Talismans that can save your life in case of danger."

Wang Wei’s Divine Sense checked inside the space ring and a shield floating inside along with many talismans. On the corner was a small pile of pills–mostly healing ones.

"Thank you, master."

A few days later, Wang Wei flew to the entrance of the sect where a group of people was waiting. At the head of the group were two people: Lou Cheng’s first senior brother, Wan Luo, and his third senior sister, Lan Ling.

After meeting them, Wang Wei said with a smile," Third Senior Sister, First Senior Brother." However, while his tone was warm and cheerful for the first one, he was more neutral and even cold when referring to his senior brother.

Apparently, Lou Cheng’s relationship with his senior brother has not been very good because he is considered his love rival for his third senior sister. Although Wang Wei was complaining inside, he still had to act the part.

While Lan Ling smiled and chatted with Lou Cheng, Wan Luo just nodded his head at him before ignoring him. Meanwhile, Wang Wei was checking the other people participating in this secret realm.

He quickly realized that the majority of these disciples belong to Fu Caiyun’s faction in the sect. And when it came to the direct disciples of his master, only the three of them came while the remaining four stayed in the sect.

Considering that his 6th junior sister and 7th junior brother had quite a low cultivation level, he understood why they did not come. His second senior brother was in retreat, however, he did not know why 4th senior brother did not come.

"What are we waiting for?" asked Wang Wei.

"Fu Caiyun’s third disciple is also coming with us," replied Lan Ling. Not long after asking this question, the space not far from the group was suddenly broken and a young man dressed in all black with clouds pattern came from it.

His appearance was quite noticeable as he had heavy bad under his eyes like he had spent millennia without sleep. A gloomy aura surrounded his body, preventing anyone from approaching him.

"Ji Yulou, you’re late," said Wan Luo with a cold voice. Unfortunately, the latter just ignored him. After taking out a small boat from his space ring, it enlarged itself until it was large enough to hold a few thousand people.

Ji Yulou flew inside one of the rooms on the boat, followed by his master’s followers. Meanwhile, Wan Luo was furious for a few seconds before following.

In the meantime, Wang Wei was secretly observing that Ji Yulou.

’If I remember correctly, this guy belonged to the Ji family, which had paid a high price for him to become Fu Caiyun’s apprentice. His presence in this secret realm showed that his master might be aligning himself with the Ji family to deal with Liu Meixiu.’

Many aristocratic families will send their juniors into other powerful sects as either a form of alliance, using the sect’s resources to raise them, or even as asylum against rival factions in their clan. There are many of them in the Dao Opening Sect.

Those sects would accept these people since they will never truly enter the core power. Additionally, if they can be turned into spies, they are the perfect double agent.

...

Thinking of Liu Meixiu, Wang Wei’s killing intent flash. Back on the Luck Trial, he suffered a loss because of her’ she broke the rules of the trial and tried to destroy the world in an attempt to acquire merit to increase her Qi Luck.

Millions of his citizens died because of the beast tide she created. If the trial took place in a Middle Thousand World, he would have paid for this great Karma as a ruler.

So, Wang Wei remembered that debt and he would pay it with blood.

’Although I want Liu Meixiu’s head, I still need her to reach the core of this secret realm first as she has an overwhelming advantage over other people. So, if necessary, I have to block both Fu Caiyun and the Ji family’s people.’

Three days later, the group arrived at the Northern Black Tortoise Continent. The first thing that flashed across Wang Wei’s mind was:

’How thin the spiritual energy is.’

He finally understood the reason that the Demon Race’s hatred for humans is increasing with each passing generation. Living in this environment makes cultivation at least 10 times harder than usual.

However, from the human race’s point of view, this is the best choice besides exterminating their race. The Demon race’s cultivation is different from other people.

They relied heavily on their bloodline. Although this determined the height low-level bloodline demons will reach, high-level bloodlines only require enough resources to reach the Supreme Realm; they do not have bottlenecks.

Additionally, the Demon race does not have to worry about things like having their own Dao to become Great Emperor. Although that would help, it’s just the cherry on top, nothing more.

As long as they acquire the Heaven Will, their bloodline will evolve and mutate. They do not have to worry about things like Dao Heart and so on. The downside to this is that it’s really difficult for the Demon Race to give birth to Eternal Emperors.

So far, throughout their history, not a single one has appeared.

After arriving at Tiger Sovereign Domain, the group headed to a small town habited by humans called "Hope Town" located in the north. Although it was rare, there were still humans living in the north.

The majority of them were descendants of fugitives who tried to hide from their enemies in the demon’s race territory. While the rest are probably people who do not want to or do not have the means to relocate.

Luckily for these people, because of the demon race’s fear of the human race, they were not brutally slaughtered or used as food. At least on the surface, it looks that way.

Once the people of the Origin Pill Dao arrived at their destination, they saw many flying boats floating in the air, waiting for the appropriate time to enter the secret realm.

With a glance, Wang Wei could tell that only a few Emperor Lineages were interested in this secret realm, while the majority of other people were from Supreme Lands and Holy Land.

After pondering for a moment, he realized the reason. The core of this secret realm has not been opened, so not many people knew of its true value. So, many people were just waiting for the right time to act.

However, given that Liu Meixiu spent a few hundred years trying to reach the core, Wang Wei bet that she knew more about it than everyone else, and there might be something very valuable inside.

While thinking to himself, Wang Wei’s vision was locked on one of the flying boats as he watched a handsome man with grey hair and eyes: it was himself.

To be precise, it was his clone. Although it only had 60% of his true body strength, it could still fight a True Monarch.

"Fifth brother, do you know Sacred Son Wang Wei?"
