Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 237: Third Round

Wang Wei watched how easily Mo Xingyun easily defeated the Nine Yin Physique, then he saw how she swallowed her opponent’s body. However, what he focused more on was what happened afterwards.

Someone intervened and placed a formation that isolated the viewer’s eye and it seemed that Mo Xingyun had a conversation with someone.

"Any information on who she was talking to?" asked Wang Wei.

"Unfortunately, no." replied Wang Ju from the communication talisman.

"Any movement from the Mo family in the West after this incident?"

"The Sect did notice some movement from them after this as they seemed to be searching for something. However, after that, once the Mo family noticed that the whole world was spying on them, they immediately stopped their actions."

Wang Wei nodded as he placed a higher level of threat to Mo Xingyun after hearing that conversation.

So, he focused on her actions during this trial.

Wang Wei watched as she killed and swallowed the Number 9 Origin Spirit Physique and the Number 10 Star Monarch Physique. None of these guys from the Lower Realm could give her a proper challenge, showing how difficult it is for Heaven Chosens from the Lower Realm to actually become successful in higher worlds.

Only a few of them can do so, and the ones that actually become Great Emperors are even more rare. Most of them actually have to enter a faction before they could reach their full potential and be able to fight for the Heaven Will.

As for the ones from the Lower Realm that became Great Emperor while still remaining loose cultivators, the number of them can be counted in one hand. And these people are usually extremely powerful, but also very lucky.

They usually have countless fortunate opportunities to close the gap with those Heaven Chosen full of resources since birth. Finally, they have to find an identity token to be recognized by the Heavenly Dao of the Myriad Emperor World.

And even those loose cultivators’ Great Emperor might not make it in this Glorious Age when Heaven Chosens are as many as dogs, and the talent needed to survive in this generation has been raised to unimaginable heights.

After sighing for a moment, Wang Wei continued to observe Mo Xingyun; she seemed to have an insatiable appetite. After killing the last 3 physiques in the top 10, she went after the number 7 Boundless Void Physique.

Unfortunately, she soon realized that she bargained for more than she could handle. Before the Void Shattered Realm, the Boundless Void Physique is one of the most overpowered physiques of all the 3000 Heavenly Physiques.

It grants the owner the ability to control space. So abilities like teleport, space cut, space imprisonment are the most common abilities of this physique.

Adding to that the founder of the Worshipping Dao Academy once also possessed the same physique and proved the Dao with Space as his main Dao, so the owner of this physique, Zhang Xuan cultivate the [Infinite Void Volume], Mo Xingyun was maltreated during the battle.

Zhang Xuan kept teleporting around her and attacking her. She tried to swallow the space around her, but she failed. So, she used the power she had just gained from the Origin Spirit Physique that granted her unlimited origin essence to keep using large scale attacks to prevent Zhang Xuan from approaching her.

Unfortunately, this tactic did not work as the space around her was imprisoned and turned into a cage during one of her attacks, making her own origin abilities counter-attack her instead.

Nevertheless, Mo Xingyun was a ruthless woman. She purposely left an opening on herself and lured Zhan Xuan to attack her directly. So, after he appeared next to her to stab her with a space blade, she let him do it then instantly tried to swallow one of his arms.

Lucky, Zhan Xuan was also a cruel person and knew that he could not get access to any part of his body, so he detonated that arm after knowing that he could not save it--thus preventing Mo Xingyun from getting any powers from his physique.

After that, the two of them did not continue to fight and left just like that.

Wang Wei watched that battle over and over, and he discovered that one of the main reasons that Mo Xingyun lost was because she could not fully utilize the power of the other physique; it was as if she could not fully digest what she swallowed.

Wang Wei then remembered that the Heaven Devouring Emperor not only created the Heaven Devour Physique, but also a powerful cultivation technique to go with it. It seemed that Mo Xingyun did have such a thing, thus explaining the reason for the inability to properly swallow these physiques.

"Wait, could she have discovered the technique left over by the Heaven Devour Emperor, hence the reason that the Mo family was searching for something? However, this does not make sense as according to the Heaven Devour Emperor’s personality and attitude towards his own family, it is very unlikely that he would leave behind an inheritance--unless it was someone else’s inheritance," muttered Wang Wei to himself.

After that, he looked back at Wang Ju before ordering: "Go over all the people throughout history that have cultivated a technique about ’swallowing’ or ’devouring’ and see if you can find anything. You can ask my father’s Shadow to help you review the Sect’s Secret Archive and see if they can discover anything else."

"As you wish, young master."

Afterwards, he re-watched the battle between these two--this time focusing on Zhang Xuan’s ability and how he would defeat him in a battle. Before cultivators enter the Void Shattered Realm and can use the power of Space, this physique is indeed a ’cheat’.

However, Wang Wei believed that his fleshly body can easily tank any of his attacks, not to mention that he can now break the space around him with sheer force. Additionally, his Fate Innate Talent can also deal with this physique, so he was not that worried.

As for Mo Xingyun, he noticed that she has a limit on the things that she can swallow, so he can easily overload her capabilities and make her explode from swallowing too much.

Furthermore, she seemed incapable of swallowing physical attacks that do not involve origin essence or spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth. With so many restrictions, he has many ways to deal with her. However, if she finds a way to fix her flaws, her level of threat will exponentially increase.

After watching her battle, Wang Wei then focused on two other people that Wang Ju’s information had detailed notes on.

One of them was a handsome man called the Suave Sloth.

This man was sleeping in the middle of the battlefield with countless beautiful women fanning him. However, every time some devil beasts or another participant came close to him, they would instantly feel listless and unmotivated, then fall asleep like him. Then, the women next to the Suave Sloth would go and kill these people themselves, and they would not even react.

Wang Wei was speechless for a moment before reading the information that Wang Ju had about him. According to her, his real name is not known, or he might not even have a real name. Ever since he was young, people always called him the Suave Sloth.

This guy was extremely lazy when he was young, refusing to even eat due to how lazy he was. According to this information, the only reason that he began to cultivated in the first place was because he heard that cultivators did not need to eat after reaching a certain level of strength, just needed to live from breathing spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth.

And this guy’ laziness did not stop here. After discovering that cultivation was hard work, he used his genius to create a cultivation technique that allows him to both cultivate and fight while sleeping.

This technique even allowed him to create a pseudo-domain around him that placed anyone near him into a state of utmost laziness or sloth.

As for the women next to him, they were here to ensure that he could sleep peacefully, and if he ever decides to wake up, that they will take care of his daily needs.

What made Wang Wei speechless was a very particular detailed information that he did not want to know how Wang Ju got.

According to this information, the reason that these women like Suave Sloth so much was not because of his handsome face, or because of any benefit, but because he was too lazy during sex that he allowed them to be on top, and do most if not all the work.

In this very patriarchal society, these women find this experience very liberating and free, they feel powerful and in control--even more than having a high cultivation level. So, they are drawn to him like metal to magnet.

After sighing how wonderful and weird the cultivation world can be, he focused on the last person named Fan Li.

This person actually received the inheritance of the Nether Emperor, or as he is more known for, the Yin Soul Emperor.

This Emperor is a very interesting one as he suffered a terrible humiliation just after proving the Dao.

Right after becoming a Great Emperor, he took the name Nether Emperor. However, some powerful being in the Nether Hell Forbidden Land did not like that he used that name.

Then, a gigantic palm came from there and patted the Nether Emperor like a fly--almost killing him. The palm left the words: "Are you worthy of that name?" before leaving.

After that, he was forced to change his name to Yin Soul Emperor.

As for Fan Li’s ability, it involves controlling yin energy in the surrounding environment to create zombies, spirits, ghosts, and the soul. It is rumored that this technique can even allow a cultivator to bring back the dead to life when one reaches the highest level.

Unfortunately, this rumor has not been verified, nevertheless, many people are interested in acquiring it. Given that this Fan Li is nothing but a lucky loose cultivator, many factions have started to eye his inheritance for their own.

By the time Wang Wei had finished reviewing all this information, the Third Round of the tournament had begun, and all the Seeded-Players had begun to take part in this trial.
