Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

After this weird encounter with the Absolute Beginning Magic, Wang Wei returned back to the pile of books. However, unlike before, he had no problem reading or memorizing the contents; it seemed that his method worked.

So, he spent the next few weeks going over every detail regarding Buddhism in order to find a way to use Incense to refine his soul.

"Did you find the method?" asked his father.

"No," responded Wang Wei as he shook his head. "All I learned was that some Buddhist monks in that era used something called [Sentient Being Flame] to refine their souls. This flame was created from gathering Incense from all living beings, hence the name."

"So, it was no use?"

"Not necessarily. Although I did not find the method, I did come up with an idea on how to succeed."

Everyone’s eyes lit up after hearing this, then they gathered around him to wait for his explanation. Then, Wang Wei explained to them the step-by-step plan that he came up with in the past few days.

Everyone was quiet after hearing this, trying to process the information they just received.

"Well, although your plan is a little crazy, it might work," said Wang Tian. "However, there are still a few things that are needed; they won’t be easy to acquire."

"The hardest part would be getting your hands into the [Origin Pill Flame Scripture]," said Yu Yan. "Fu Caiyun is a nasty individual. The reason that he’s the only one able to cultivate that Scripture is not only because of his talent, but because he secretly killed any talented Alchemists that have any remote chance of overcoming him.

"Plus, there is the fact that the [Origin Pill Flame Scripture] requires both a high talent for Alchemy, and an unprecedented devotion to Pill Dao. Although your talent in Alchemy might meet the requirement, you only minor in Pill Dao."

"I have taken into account the problem of the scripture and have a plan for that," replied Wang Wei. "As for Fu Caiyun, I’ll deal with him after infiltrating the Origin Pill Dao Sect."

Everyone nodded with him, then Wu Hong handed him a book: "This is a devil technique on how to cultivate the Sin Flame. Since Incense Power contains the power of emotion, this might help you."

Wang Wei’s eyes lit up after hearing this as he thought of something. He motioned everybody to quiet down, then took out a Communication Talisman.

"Hopefully, she is not in retreat," muttered Wang Wei.

A few seconds later, a beautiful woman with green hair appeared in front of him. She exuded an unnatural charm that would make any man tempted with just a look.

"Young master Wang Wei, what took you so long to contact me? I thought you had forgotten poor little me."

"Young Lady Su Ya, as you can guess, I’ve been busy cultivating and time flew by. I’m sorry that I did not contact you sooner."

"Man, all of you always have an excuse. So, to what I owe this sudden call?"

"Couldn’t I just want to talk to a beautiful woman? Why do you think that I want something from you?"

"As much as I would want to flirt with you, I’m currently busy, so go on with your business. Plus, I’m sure your Dao Partner would not appreciate your actions."

Wang Wei gave a slight glance at Wu Hong, however, she had a calm look on her face throughout the entire process.

’Couldn’t she just fake being jealous?’

"In that case, I’ll be direct. I’m calling you for an exchange. I want your understanding to turn emotions into Flames."

"That’s an odd request. Why would you want something like that?"

"I don’t think that information has anything to do with our exchange."

"True. So, what do I get in return?"

"I have a rare devil race cultivation from the Devil Era that turns sins and depravity into Flame. I think that’s a fair exchange."

Su Ya was slightly surprised as this exchange was indeed worth it as she could get something so precious from ancient time. After pondering for a moment, she said:

"Unfortunately, I’ll have to decline."

This time, it was Wang Wei who was surprised.

"Why? This is a fair trade. In fact, you would benefit more in this transaction."

"Exactly. From what I know about you, you are not the kind of person that likes to suffer losses--even a small amount. Since you’re willing to do so for an exchange, this means that what you want is either truly valuable or very important. So, no matter what, I’ll prevent you from getting it.

After all, you already have so many advantages ahead of us Heaven Chosen in this generation, there is no need for you to have more," replied Su Ya with a gentle smile on her face.

Wang Wei’s eyes turned cold, but the smile on his face still remained.

"I’m a man who always gets what he wants, Lady Su Ya. Since trading does not work, let’s try blackmail."

"Hehe, I would like to see what you use to blackmail me."

"If I’m not mistaken," said Wang Wei slowly. "At this moment, you should be laying out your plans to kill Jian Wushuang.

Su Ya squinted her eyes, then laughed out loud with her melodious voice echoing from the Talisman. "Young Master Wang Wei, if you think that telling Jian Wushuang my plan can be used as blackmail, then you’ve greatly underestimated my abilities."

"Is that so?" answered Wang Wei. "In that case, let me tell you a little story. There was this little orphan girl born in a small village. Because her parents died young, she was always made fun of by the children of the village.

"Luckily for her, she was born with a special physique, so she could charm these children and make them do her bidding. Nevertheless, her trauma from being made fun of for not having any parents remained her heart. Until one day, an immortal-like lady recognized her talent and took her to the path of cultivation.

"This little girl was very talented in cultivation, and always bested her peers. She was popular amongst her sect’s disciples, and she managed to attain a very high status. However, there was something missing in her life: parental love.

"The little girl always looked at her master who brought her into the path of cultivation as a mother figure. However, her master was always cold and detached, treating her as nothing but a tool to make the sect prosper.

"However, one day, the little girl created a plan to deal with the sect’s other Heaven Chosen. After her master saw the plan, because it had a sense of ’poetic justice’, the master was pleasantly surprised.

"For the first time in her life, the little girl saw her master smile, received her compliment; for the first time in her life after her parents’ death, she received the maternal love she had been dreaming about.

"What do you think about this story?"

Su Ya looked at Wang Wei with fury in her eyes; if eyes could kill, she would completely annihilate every single particle of his existence.

"Send someone with a contract and the technique, and make sure to add the condition to keep your stinking mouth shut."

After saying that, she disconnected the Talisman. Immediately after that, Su Ya threw a temper tantrum in her cultivation room, destroying everything in sight.

As for Wang Wei, he smirked as he muttered: "People who play with emotions are always easily influenced by it."

"Sometimes I forget how devious you can be," commented Yu Yan with a slight smile. "You are definitely my son. It’s good that you can use your head to deal with problems instead of your swords." She was looking at Wang Tian after saying the last part.

However, the sect master ignored his wife. Although he was like that in his younger years, after years of being a sect master, he also became a cunning old fox.

"What’s the next step?" asked Wang Tian.

"Next, I need to divine something."

Wang Wei then took out the [8 Trigram Turtle Shell] from his space ring. He used his fate power to activate.

Immediately after that, he found himself in a river made of uncountable lines. At the center of the river was a spinning wheel creating more strings.

This was the River of Fate.

Standing on the river, Wang Wei closed his eyes to feel something, then he plunged his hand on the river to take out a single string. Immediately afterward, he opened his eyes--which glowed grey.

"I need someone to go to this coordinate and find this world," said Wang Wei.

"I’ll go," said Wang Chang. "That way, it would be faster."

Then, he broke the space and entered the Endless Void. Using his powerful Quasi-Emperor cultivation Realm, he began rapid successive teleportation with each teleportation taking him a few million light years away.
