Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

'Something is wrong,' thought Wang Wei. The Clean up is a generational event where cultivators of the Myriad Emperor World essentially go on a slaughter spree in the Nine Devil God World, culling the strength of the devil race. The purpose is to prevent any possibility of rising.

Although it was a generational event, not everyone participated. And sometimes, only a few people do so–mainly Loose Cultivators since it is an excellent opportunity to gather resources in another world.

This event had the most significant after the Devil Era. Back then, cultivators were full of hatred and animosity and took it out on the surviving race. In the next few generations after the end of the era, the devil race was almost extinct because of how much people hunted them down.

Typically, the Clean Up should not be important in this generation, nor did it warrant an announcement from Heavenly Dao. But this has changed today because the cleanup involved the Heaven Will Battle.

Heavenly Dao announced that participants needed an entry token to participate in this generation's Heaven Will Battle. The exact date will be after a certain number of Heaven Chosen enter the Supreme Realm. And the permit will be acquired based on the number of devils killed during this generation's Clean Up.

Wang Wei pondered for a moment. The system of entry tokens is not new regarding Heaven Will Battles. Most of the time, any individual can participate in the battle as long they are recognized citizens and do not have karma from the previous generation.

However, Heavenly Dao sometimes uses the entry token system to weed out too many participants.

'There must be some anomaly with the Nine Devil God World for Heavenly Dao to use this method. Furthermore, the token system might have lasting ramifications in this generation's battle.'

Wang Wei took a talisman to contact Wang Ju. A few minutes later, a mass of shadow appeared in the room he was in, and a book manifested from the shadow, landing in his hand.

After quickly reading it, he handed it to Li Jun and Yan Liling. According to the Sleeper's Archive, near the end of the New Emperor Era, something similar occurred where Heavenly Dao used the entry token to cause severe damage to the Nine Devil Gods World. And it was because an unparallel genius had appeared in their race that needed to be eradicated.

'Interesting,' thought Wang Wei. The Devil Invasion has some connection to a True Devil in the upper dimension. So, he is interested in the devil race and their history. He chatted with the two for a while and set up an elder meeting to discuss sect matters.

Wang Wei then flew home to see Wu Hong.

"Are you coming to ask me about the True Devil responsible for the Devil Race's actions?" she asked while drinking tea. She was not reading but painting.

"Yes."

"I don't know much since he was dealt with by the time I ascended. And my memories are incomplete," she continued. The situation has always been weird to her for some reason–and it was not just because of her missing memories.

"All I know is that event inspired Qiyuan to begin the Second Battle of Origin and the Ultimate Taboo."

"Speaking of which, what is this Ultimate Taboo?"

"I can't say much since you're too weak. But I'm sure you've put two and two together and have a pretty close guess."

He did have some guesses, but he felt he was missing a lot. However, he did not continue to ask.

"Speaking of taboos, have you experienced all of them? Which one is the most terrifying?"

"There are a few that I've only heard about," she replied while continuing to paint and not focusing on him. "As for the most terrifying? Well, there is some nuance to this answer.

"The Ultimate Taboo should have been the most terrifying. But since everyone failed and died, it reduced its significance. So, the title goes to…."

'The Six Cardinals Tribunal.'

Most cultivators believe them to be only rumors or whispers, only during the Ultimate Taboo, that they confirm their existence and how terrifying they are. Even the current Maitreya and Supreme Unity are only slightly bigger ants before the Six Cardinals.

Wu Hong stopped her action and looked up at Wang Wei up and down.

"What is it?"

"You're really a trouble magnet."

"What did I do? Do I have any connection with whatever taboo you were thinking about?"

"Not yet, but you will if you want to be free from fate."

Wang Wei groaned as he caressed his temples. His intuition told him she was correct. "Alright, let's not talk about these things."

Wu Hong shrugged as she continued to paint and enjoy her tea. "What are you going to do? Go into retreat?"

"I have to undergo my Saint Realm Tribulation and Flesh Tribulation. Then, I will go into retreat."

"Are you going to undergo Mortal Dust before entering the Supreme Ream?"

"I am."

"That's good. It's always beneficial to temper the mind and heart when given a chance. Furthermore, when done correctly, Mortal Dust is a great way to deepen understanding of's own Dao."

"Speaking of which, my parents should be back in a while." Wang Wei had a feeling they would be returning soon.

"Really? I miss Father and Mother."

"Me too."

"How about grandfather? Still in retreat?"

"Yes. I've checked on him, and he's still dealing with his Dao Heart," replied Wang Wei. "Do you know any method to cure shattered Dao Heart?"

"In this Chaos World, the answer is no," replied Wu Hong. "The Laws of this Chaos World has placed great restrictions on resources dealing with Dao Heart."

"Is it to weed out the elite and the weak-minded?"

"Yes, but also to encourage cultivators to rely on themselves to deal with the issue."

"That's unfair," declared Wang Wei, who felt there should be a better way to deal with this issue.

"You're only feeling this way because it affects you."

"You don't have to expose my hypocrisy so blatantly."

Wu Hong ignored his fake outcry. "You don't have to worry about grandfather. Your plan to have him defeat Nine Suns should work."

"Hope so," replied Wang Wei as he stood next to her, watching her masterpiece. He had nothing to do until a few days later when he had to activate the Human Protection Array and finish the Myriad Emperor World's protection.

Suns, Yang Clan Estate:

Yang Guowei was talking to a few elders when he sensed something. He dismissed everyone before activating the room's formation, showing the figure of a hidden figure cloud in darkness.

"What is it?" he asked.

"How are things proceeding?"

"It's only been a few days."

The dark figure paused as they sensed something in Yang Guowei's tone. "Are you still mad about the other day?"

"No."

"You should know it would have been impossible to kidnap them without alerting Wang Wei. And since you know his strength, you should guess what your fate would have been."

"I know."

The figure paused for a moment. "Aright. Don't forget our agreement." He then disconnected the communication, and Yang Guowei squinted his eyes.

Somewhere in the Myriad Emperor World:

The dark figure ended the formation. He was a young man with green eyes. His face was handsome until an insect came from his ears and burrowed into his cheeks. And the figure behaved as if he felt or sensed nothing.

'This Yang Guowei is a snake. I cannot determine his motive and behavior pattern,' he thought. 'Anyways, as long as his father is on our side, he should behave."

He then activated the formation to contact two others.

"Yu Zhu, how–"

"I've told you not to call me by that name, Parasite."

"Fine. Undead Flame, how is your situation?"

"Not good. I think the Fate Shadow Guards have spotted me?"

"So, soon?" They knew they could not hide for long, but the longer they could, the better the situation was for them.

"I think they are only suspicious. But some people have been monitoring me and my contact with the Corpse Selling Sect."

"You need to be more careful and better hide your track."

"I will."

Parasite then looked at the second individual. "Designer, how are things on your side?"

"Excellent. As long as you gather the resources and have enough people to sacrifice, I guarantee you a weapon capable of killing a Third Class Emperor," reassured a young man with dirt all over his face. "I guarantee you these two Nine Extremity Foundations won't survive."

"Don't worry about the sacrifices. I've already established a semi-decent alliance with many Heaven Chosens. I will turn everyone against these two if I have to."

"What about the Suppressing Fate Alliance? Do you think we can ally with them?" asked Undead Flame.

"Maybe. I'm hesitating to deal with Mo Xingyun since she might be connected to the Heaven Devour Emperor."

"If she is as selfish as her ancestor, it won't be a bad thing if she's the one who proves the Dao." Their objective is to prevent the rise of the Myriad Emperor World or at least delay it for as long as possible. So, if someone as selfish as Heaven Devour Emperor become Emperor, they would never help or lead this new era.

"Let's wait and see." The moment Parasite said these words, he and the others sensed something. Then, they received Heavenly Dao's message. Immediately, Parasite's face changed as the situation just got complicated.

Heavenly Dao uses the Entry Token System to reduce the number of participants in the battle. And if it is the same in this clean-up, their plan–which requires ganging up on Wang Wei and Di Tian–will be in jeopardy.

"What do you think?" asked Parasite.

"It doesn't make sense to restrict the participant's size," commented Designer. "In Heaven Will Battles where Eternal Emperor should appear, it has always been a free for all so that the final winner is the person who suppresses every individual."

According to precedent, a few times, Heavenly Dao tried to cultivate an Eternal Emperor through a Glorious Age that skipped the previous generation, and countless Heavenly Physiques showed up.

And in all these battles, there have never been restrictions on the participant number.

"Do you think it's because of the Era Son?" asked Undead Flame.

"No. Heavenly Dao cannot show that much favoritism, even if it would benefit it," analyzed Parasite. "Let's just until the Clean Up. This might be because of an unknown situation in the Devil God World.
