Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 105: Hidden Card



Wang Wei marched his army straight in front of the royal palace. As he led the army, many people looked at him with fear and closed the window to their house and locked themselves in their home.

Wang Wei sighed as he knew that this was a normal reaction. In this chaotic world, every time a city--especially a capital--is conquered, what often follows was disaster for the people.

The invading army will brutally kill the citizens, loot all the wealth and food, sexually assault the women, and set fire to the houses.

However, Wang Wei would never allow his men to behave in such a way. He has written strict military codes for the entire army and anyone who disobeys it will be punished severely.

This is one of the reasons that Wang Wei’s rebellion was so smooth and successful the past few years. He did not kill or plunder when he conquered a city. On the contrary, he will take time to calm all the citizens and assure them that everything will in fact be better in the future.

After the army surrounded the palace, Wang Wei waited for a while before going in. Somehow, he discovered that the whole palace was too quiet. There was no noise of people running around trying to escape, no plunder of the royal family’s wealth: it was too calm.

Thinking about the weird behavior of the Noble Alliance, Wang Wei became more alert in order to be able to react in case of emergency.

Unfortunately, he was too late.

Suddenly, something hit Wang Wei with tremendous force.

Boom!

The sound of a cannibal echoed around the palace and Wang Wei flew away into the air. His body crashed into countless houses.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Each time his body crashed into a house, it would immediately crumble down. The infrastructure of these houses would be destroyed, then the whole house would fall down on their habitants.

This was terribly destructive as some of these houses even had more than three floors and countless people living inside them.

Clouds of dust scattered all over the city wherever these houses fell down. Meanwhile, Wang Wei was already blown away to the next house, not affected by the consequences.

In fact, not just houses. Many unfortunate bystanders who happened to be on the way suffered similar fate as these houses. Many people died because they were hit by the fast moving body of Wang Wei.

After traveling for more than 600 hundred meters, Wang Wei plunged into an artificial mountain located near the palace. With an exploding sound, his entire body was stuck deep into the mountain..

Soon afterward, a middle aged man appeared in the air near the mountain with a deep frown on his face.

A few seconds after being stuck, Wang Wei exited the mountain. His body was covered in blood and many chunks of internal organs and bone pieces. These were not his own.

With a single thought, he activated the cleaning formation on his robe and the blood and filth were instantly removed--even the ones on his face.

After cleaning himself up, Wang Wei checked his body and there was not even a single scratch on him. He nodded in satisfaction as his fleshly body.

He then raised his head and looked at the man floating in the air and said with a smile, "Interesting. I did not expect the final card of the royal family to be a cultivator in the Supernatural Realm. Shouldn’t you have gone through Heavenly Tribulation and go to a higher world already?"

The flying man looked at Wang Wei with a solemn face and said: "What a powerful Extraterrestrial Demon. You took my attack like it was nothing. I cannot even find a single scratch on your skin."

"You know old man, it is very rude to use your divine sense to scan a person without authorization." After saying this, Wang Wei controlled his skin and muscles and vibrated them rapidly.

Suddenly, the Supernatural realm cultivator--whose name was Dong Hao--found out that his divine sense could not scan Wang Wei’s body. The solemnness on his face thus further increased.

"You did not answer my question. Why did you not go to a higher world?"

"Not everyone has the heart to go through such powerful Heavenly Tribulation unless really necessary," responded Dong Hao with a look of fear deep in his eyes.

Wang Wei could guess what he meant. In small world like this, although the highest level of strength allowed id the Divine Altar Realm, there is still many genius cultivators who have managed to enter higher realms.

When that happens, these cultivators will have to go through two Heavenly Tribulations: one to break through the realm, and the other in order to go to a higher world.

However, the second tribulation is extremely powerful. Due to the fact that Supernatural Realm cultivators cannot survive in the Endless Void for long, the world that they are from are responsible to open a space passage to a higher world.

For example, the Warring Kingdom Word is a Lower Thousand World. After the tribulation, Heavenly Dao has to open a space passage to a Middle Thousand World for the Supernatural Realm cultivators.

Unfortunately, the cost of opening such a passage is extremely costly for such a low level world. As such, in order not to have to do it, Heavenly Dao exponentially increased the difficulty of the Heavenly Tribulation.

Thus, few cultivators can pass the tribulation. Of course, those who do are in fact truly Heaven defying geniuses. These people are often saw after and recruited when they reach higher worlds.

In fact, Wang Wei read about another method from the sect’s library. This method is actually simple: occupation.

After discovering a lower plane, some more powerful planes will occupy these planes and set up a powerful Trans-planar Teleportation or as it is more often called, the Ascending Channel.

When cultivators of the lower plane reach the standard realm, they can go through the established passage to reach higher worlds. The downside to this method is the fact that these ascending cultivators are usually under strict control.

If their native worlds are conquered by a more benevolent one, then they usually have to choose a sect to be part of after their ascension. However if their worlds are conquered by other brutal worlds, then the fate of these ascending cultivators are nothing but to be either cannon fodder in wars or becoming slaves to be auctioned and sold off.

"One thing I’m still curious about. How can you be able to move so freely in this world? It’s one thing not to ascend to higher planes, but the Heavenly Dao of this world would never allow cultivators of your level to move freely about with the destructive power you all have." asked Wang Wei.

Dong Hao smiled and responded, "I have to thank you Extraterrestrial Demons for this. I do not know what you guys did, however, ever since your arrival, the suppression of us Transcending Mortality Realm cultivators have been slowly reducing until it was completely lifted."

After hearing this, Wang Wei immediately understood the reason. Before the trial, the Supreme Realm True Monarchs have refined this world to elevate the power scale in order to allow all the Heaven Chosen to compete freely.

This must be the reason that the native Supernatural Realm of this world can move and fight freely.

Wang Wei also realized why the Noble Alliance was not so keen on immediately signing the Soul Contract. It seems that they were already aware of the royal family’s hidden cards.

They wanted to stand and watch how he and the royal family fought to the death. In the end, whoever is the winner, they would still be the one who benefited the most.

Wang Wei sneered at this. No matter what plans these people had, he had more than a hundred ways to deal with them.

If they think that a weak Supernatural cultivator could defeat him, they are gravely mistaken.

After getting the answer he wanted, Wang Wei cracked his neck and hand preparing for the next battle. He felt excited as his blood boiled; he hoped this old man could give him a proper challenge.

Without hesitation, Wang Wei threw a powerful punch in the air. The powerful shock wave generated by the punch created an air bullet that flew towards the old man in the sky.

Dong Hao who was also ready for battle suddenly felt a very condensed air pressure flying towards him. Without hesitation, he manifested a barrier to protect him.

However, to his horror, the air bullet actually pushed him more than 10 meters after clashing with his barrier.

What’s worse is that immediately afterward, countless more air bullets hit his shield, thus adding cracks to it.

Dong Hao was shocked at how powerful these punches were. He knew that he might lose if he fought head on with Wang Wei. This was considered a great shame to him, being weaker than a mere Divine Altar Realm cultivator.

However, given the prominent background of his opponent, he decided to not to think too much about it.

Nevertheless, Dong Hao’ situation was not looking too good after being bombarded by all these air bullets. So, he decided to use the one advantage that his realm had compared to Wang Wei: The ability to fly in the air.
