Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Wu Hong frowned; Wang Wei's current situation was new territory for her. After all, no one had ever achieved Ten Supremacy Foundation before this generation. So, she had nothing to reference; her vast knowledge and experience were not helpful in the current situation.

"I think I'm having my first cultivation bottleneck," Wang Wei said with a frown, slightly annoyed he could not figure out what he lacked--especially since the things seemed in the back of his mind. Most cultivators will experience Bottlenecks in their lives; it often prevents even the most brilliant Heaven Chosen from reaching a higher realm or cultivating some magical technique.

The worse thing about bottlenecks is that the most stupid reasons could prevent cultivators from succeeding at their cultivation. For example, what Wang Wei is missing could be something extremely obvious or obscure, like one specific memory he experienced back on Earth.

"If it's a bottleneck, there are two ways to deal with it: slowly grind and succeed through time, or wait for a moment of enlightenment. In your situation, you have to use the second method."

"You're right–especially since I don't have much time," replied Wang Wei as he took his Entrance Token for the Heaven Will Battle. While testing his strength, he received the news from Heavenly Dao that the final battle was only 500 years from now.

"Let's go on a vacation with just the two of us," said Wu Hong. "You can calm down and refresh your mind. With such a state of mind, you have a higher chance of becoming enlightened and dealing with your bottleneck."

"That's a good idea. Let me deal with a few things before leaving."

"Okay."

"I suddenly remember I have a few things to ask you: Firstly, do you know how Di Tian achieved his Mortal Emperor Status?"

"My guess is he used a Limit Breaker."

"What a cool name," commented Wang Wei. "The name tells me what it does, but can you be more specific?"

"Limit Breaker is a rare Primordial Chaos treasure often fought for by Paragons and Fiendgods. Fiendgods often use it to break through the limit of their bloodlines, while Paragons use it to break through the limit of their talent, soul, or even Grand Dao Source."

"You can break the limit of Grand Dao Source?"

"It's not as grandiose as it sounds," added Wu Hong. "After reaching the peak of 100% Grand Dao Source, it's impossible to increase strength unless a person cultivates the True Power Dao Realm, using a powerful artifact or cultivating unique techniques.

"With the Limit Breaker, a peak Paragon can increase the strength of their Grand Dao Source."

"Such a treasure would greatly benefit someone like you."

"Indeed," replied Wu Hong. She is the kind of Paragons who truly reached the peak of power in the world, with no signs or possibility of improvement. "I tried to get my hands on a Limit Breaker, but I never succeeded."

"So, it's that rare?"

"Yes."

"Then, how did Di Tian gets his hand on one?"

"I think he receives Empyrean Nine Pillar's legacy," replied Wu Hong. She once searched all types of information about the Limit Breaker. And the result was the last person in the Eternal Ascension World to have a Limit Breaker was Empyrean Nine Pillar.

So, she searched through the River of Time for information about the latter.

However, after her research, Wu Hong learned this rumor was most likely spread by Nine Pillar's enemy to use outside aid to kill him. Furthermore, Empyrean Nine Pillar disappeared and was most likely dead.

"Empyrean Nine Pillar?"

"A very talented individual–even compared to me. However, he was obsessed with reaching the so-called Ten Supremacy Foundation and dedicating countless Yuan Epochs to researching it. If luck were not against him, he probably would have survived."

"Lucky bastard," said Wang Wei with gritted teeth. He created an entire world of science and technology, got involved in another taboo, created or inspired another cultivation path, and spent millions of years cultivating talented scientists and developing technology. Only then did he succeed, but Di Tian was lucky to find someone who did all the work for him.

"Life is unfair; you should know this by now," reassured Wu Hong.

"Whatever," exhaled Wang Wei. "Do you know about my white luck?"

"Paragon's Luck," she said calmly.

"I have the luck of a Paragon?"

"Becoming a Paragon is not as simple as you think," added Wu Hong. "You need a Paragon Soul, 90% Grand Dao Source, Dao Heart, Paragon Luck, Destiny, and other things. So, many people in the Eternal Ascension World will find ways to increase their luck and gather enough destiny before breaking through."

"I see. So, I don't have to worry about Luck to become a Paragon?"

"You are an Era Son. As long as you accomplish whatever destiny Heavenly Dao gave you, your luck will turn half or completely white."

"Is it depends on how well the destiny is accomplished?"

"Yes," nodded Wu Hong before suddenly remembering something, "Didn't your ancestor tells you information about all the cultivation realm? Why are you asking me?"

"They sealed all information about Empyrean and above to not influence me," he replied, shaking his head. "I'm guessing it will be removed after I prove the Dao."

"That's not necessarily a bad thing. With your personality, you would probably be planning and worrying about your breakthrough into the Paragon Realm while you're still a little mortal."

"Mortality, huh," muttered Wang Wei. In the eye of these big shots, his intelligence, wit, cunningness, wisdom, tactical mind, and talent means nothing if he cannot prove the Dao. Ultimately, he will always be a mortal with a short lifespan, stuck in the cycle of reincarnation.

If he does not escape the shackles of death, his memories will be wiped out after countless reincarnations, losing his True Self and becoming someone else.

"Is this the power of Reincarnation? The Immortal Essence of Immortal Tier powerhouse is not only their infinite lifespan but also their [True Self]. No matter how many reincarnations they experience, they will never lose their memories or become someone else. Their memories might be temporarily sealed, but once they awaken their memories, they will instantly return to their old self."

Wang Wei raised his hand to manifest his Samsara Dao, "If the power of Reincarnation is strong enough, could I kill the True Self of an Immortal?"

Wang Wei's eyes brightened as he developed the prototype of a new technique. Then, he exhaled, feeling his mind refresh.

"Your Ten Supremacy Foundation is not as simple as I thought," commented Wu Hong with surprise in her eyes.

"What do you mean?"

"Your True Self Enlightenment is part of the [Existence] you have to understand to become an Everlasting Empyrean. Yet, you've caught a glimpse into it while still being a mortal and skipping the Eternal Emperor aspect."

"Is that so? Well, you should already know how awesome I was." Wang Wei guessed the Ten Supremacy Foundation involved the concept of breaking limits--including the fact people cannot comprehend [Existence] on their own. Of course, he knew there must limit to this ability.

"It seems that part of the power of your Paragon Soul has been activated after you became a Mortal Emperor," she added with jealousy. She is a genius born with unparallel comprehension. However, to reach the level of a Paragon Soul, she had to consume countless unique and powerful Heaven and Earth treasures.

But this bastard was born with such a talent.

'Well, I know he technically earned it, but I'm still mad,' thought Wu Hong before suddenly biting him.

"Ow, why did you do that for?"

"Because I felt like it."

Wang Wei was speechless but was then distracted by something. Her teeth easily broke his mighty skin.

'What if one day, while doing our night activities, she accidentally bites? Wouldn't I suffer?' He trembled with fear as he imagined that scene; he would not survive such a situation even with his Willpower.

"You're thinking something stupid again?" she asked with flaring anger in her eyes.

"Wife, you cannot accuse me of things I did not do," said Wang Wei with a flattering smile. "By the way, I always wanted to ask: have you ever fought the Sword Empress? If so, who won?"

Wu Hong gave him a look, knowing he was trying to change the subject and appease her anger.

"We fought once. I won by a small margin."

"Oh, my ancestor is so powerful?"

"Her attacks are unparallel."

"Why do I feel a but coming?"

"The battle was only a competition," added Wu Hong. "In a life and death battle, she won't survive long in my hands."

"Because of her weak body?"

"Yes. If I want to kill her by exchanging injuries for injuries, I will win, and she will die." She had the utmost confidence in that statement.

"But now she will temper her body, presumably become an Inextinguishable Paragon. How can you defeat her now?"

"I will be fine." There are differences between Inextinguishable Paragons. However, this is not the primary reason for her confidence. Although Yan Ai will reach the final realm of Sword Dao after tempering her body, her main body also has her opportunity.

After her injury and falling down in cultivation realm, she will take this opportunity to reinforce her foundation. So, once Sword Empress returned to her peak, her strength would only be on par with the main body–if not still a little weaker.

'Plus, I have the Perfect Foundation,' Wu Hong thought, full of confidence.
