Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

News of Wang Wei's outburst quickly spread throughout the entire world. And many people were not surprised. During this specific period when all the Heaven Chosens are in the Primordial Spirit Realm, this kind of behavior is very common for people who are affected by Heart Demon.

So, people only lamented that he was not taken over by the Heart Demon and his soul was forever scattered, thus eliminating a powerful competitor.

A few days passed and Wang Wei had already calmed down and accepted the result. However, he refused to talk to his grandfather, Yu Yong. No matter who tried to advocate for him, he would just nod to them but nothing more.

"I'm sorry, Wei'er," said Yun Zhaojun.

"There is no need to apologize," replied Wang Wei. "Like I always said, fate is the biggest mockery to us all."

"Things are not as bleak as you make them be." Yu Zhaojun sighed a little. "It's unfortunate that things could not be patched between you and your grandfather."

"We can't always have what we want in life," replied Wang Wei with a somewhat forced smile. "Don't mention him. Let's enjoy the little time we have left."

Yun Zhaojun sighed to herself but did not say anything more. Then, they spent as much time as possible in the remaining time. They talked about everything: from the most mundane thing to the topic of how beautiful Wang Wei's future children will be, and how he will use the most severe way to train his son and dote heavily on his daughter.

During this time, Yu Yan and her sister joined them, thus taking this opportunity to mend the broken relationship between these two siblings. Then, the day of farewell finally arrived.

Yu Yong and Yun Zhaojun stood in a large space with many people surrounding them. The sound of tears falling and hushed crying could be heard everywhere.

And even for the people who were not crying, sadness could be felt radiating from their bodies.

Yu Yan, Wang Wei, Yu Daiyu, and many other members of the clan stood at the very front where they could more easily see the two. Wang Wei had teary eyes but they did not fall.

He held his mother who was now crying uncontrollably, supporting her. His aunt appeared to be completely fine, with no tears whatsoever on her face. However, he could feel her using the origin essence in her body to keep her eyes dry.

No matter who it was, partings were never alright.

Then, the time finally came. Yu Yong looked at his family and loved ones and could not help but sigh. He understood the pain that his actions would cause the people left behind, but he felt that there was no other solution to his problem.

An illusory door appeared in front of the two. Without pause, Yu Yong stepped into it. Immediately, his body seemed to have evaporated but his Primordial Spirit managed to enter that door.

Meanwhile, Yun Zhaojun took one last look at her family and smiled before stepping inside. She has already said her final words to everyone and has no regrets.

The sound of crying became even louder once these two entered the door. People could no longer control themselves. However, the ceremony was not finished.

The main branch of the Yu Clan–including Yu Yan, Yu Daiyu, and Wang Wei–knelt on the floor and kowtowed nine times, with each bow touching the ground.

This was a sign of respect for the departed and also to wish them luck and prosperity in their next life. While these people were doing so, the sky in the entire Light Bringer's Domain turned black and white,

Knowledgeable people knew that this was a sign of Heaven and Earth of a mighty figure passing away. So, they also bowed down for a brief moment in respect.

A few minutes later, Wang Wei stood up from the ground, then he used his finger to write something in the air, which translated to:

"Heavenly Dao is my witness, I will take an Oath of Silent to honor her life and the influence that she had on me and countless others. For the next 10,000 years, no words shall escape my mouth."

Once he was done writing, the words lit up in the sky before disappearing, meaning the oath had been accepted. If he broke it, he would suffer a great backlash.

Yu Yan sighed after seeing this but she did not say anything else; she was too mentally tired by now. So tired that both Wang Wei and Wang Tian had to carry her to bed.

As Wang Wei looked at his mother soundless sleeping, he realized that the entire situation was also horrible for her. After all, she lost both her father and mother.

Even if she knew in advance, this does not change the emotional impact it had on her. However, she had to be strong for him. So, after sighing internally, he nodded to his father before returning to his mansion.

He entered one of the rooms and told Wu Hong through hand signs to not let anyone disturb him. He only exited the room 6 months later, carrying a few books.

As he looked at his works in front of him, only he knew the weight that they carried. Over the past few months, he did not only write these books but reflected greatly on his life.

And he realized something very important.

One of the main questions that most cultivators will ask in their lives is: what am I cultivating for?

Before, Wang Wei had many answers to that question. As a transmigrator, he wanted to reach the pinnacle of this world. Or, for his goal of one day being free and unfettered.

A better one was to not disappoint all the expectations of the sect. And the most important reason is to protect his family and loved ones.

Despite the last one being the most important, it never truly dawned on him the severity of that answer–not until now,

His family and friends were all mortals, meaning that at some point in the future, they will age and die. And the only way to escape that fate is for him to become a Great Emperor and change that.

After figuring out that fact, the weight of the Heaven Will Battle suddenly increased dramatically. To Wang Wei, this battle was no longer just one of the many wonderful sceneries in his cultivating journey. The lives of countless people were counting on him and that fight.

And he may have only one chance. If he fails, he could seal himself and try again. But the same cannot be said for all of them. Entering the Seal State is a very uncomfortable thing from what he hears.

Plus, what if some of them decided to accept their fate and leave until their life spans run out. There is nothing he can do.

So, no matter what, he must win this generation's Heaven Will Battle and ensure that all his family, friends, and sect elders who have always supported him are immortals; so that they can live a very long and fulfilling life.

'No one can stop me from proving the Dao in this generation. No one.'

He once again looked at the books in his hand before using his Divine Sense to check who was around.

'Li Jun and Yan Liling are here? Great Timing.'

He then sent a talisman to contact his mother, father, grandfather, Li Jun, Yan Liling, and Wu Hong. Although he could use his Divine Sense to talk to them, his oath involved not speaking and that includes not using his Divine Sense for communication as that is using the soul to utter words.

After entering the meeting room, Wang Wei asked Li Jun with his hand:

"How are the trials treating you?"

"Terrible. I've only barely passed one. But I've survived and won't stop. Forget about me, how are you doing?"

"Better than before."

He then looked at Yan Liling. "What about you?"

"I'm missing a little something before I can succeed. However, the Origin Pill Flame Sutra has been very useful."

"I'll give you a book with my understanding; it should be helpful."

After a brief chat, Wang Wei handed a booklet to each of them and then drank tea to wait for them to finish. The reaction of all of them was the same: shock. Especially for Li Jun, Yan Liling, and Yu Yan.

Li Jun looked at the book in his hand and his hand could not help shaking a little. In his life, he has never once dreamt of becoming a Great Emperor. To him, that was an honor reserved only for his big brother.

His plan was always to help his brother reach the top. And only after learning about Insurgent Heaven Chosen that he made his goal to become one. Not because of ambition, no, only so that he could be more useful to his big brother after he proved the Dao.

However, this book told him that there was an opportunity for him to become an Emperor–a being that has escaped the shackles of death. Although it emphasized that this plan might not work and a great price will be required, it is still an opportunity.

Li Jun was not the only shocked one. Everyone in the room–except for Wu Hong–had a feasible plan on how to prove the Dao and become a Great Emperor.

"Wei'er, it's not that I don't believe you, but is this feasible?" asked Yu Yan, with slightly trembling hands.

Wang Wei did not answer her and instead looked at Wu Hong, who calmly said:

"Li Jun and Yan Liling's plan would require you to refine the World Core of the Nine Devil God World to be feasible. As for mother-in-laws', your influence has to reach throughout the entire lower dimension before succeeding.

"However, it is not possible to make her an Eternal Emperor with this method."

"Didn't Emperor Kong use something similar?"

Wu Hong shook her head: "People don't give him enough credit. Another way to look at his situation is that he was only 0.1 millimeters from becoming an Eternal Emperor, then Heavenly Dao gave him that final push to reward him for bringing the world back to prosperity."

Wang Wei nodded his head. Although slightly disappointed, it was still acceptable.

"I'm perfectly fine with becoming a First-Class Emperor," said Yu Yan with a smile."

"You could probably push the boundary and become a Pseudo Eternal Emperor," added Wu Hong

"What's that?" Everyone was also slightly confused as they had never heard of that term.

"It is not an official term, but describes Great Emperors who have comprehended 20% of the Grand Dao Source and cast their Dao Will, however, they failed to comprehend their [Existence].

"A list of these people include the Battle Maniac Emperor, the Ancient Desolate Emperor, the Flame Emperor, the Dusk Emperor, The Samsara Emperor, along with many more."

Everyone nodded in understanding. These people are classified as First-Class Emperors, however, based on their history, it is normal to see that they are more powerful than the people in their same class.

"If this plan is feasible, I might be an Emperor before you," said Yu Yan with a smug look while looking at her husband. Meanwhile, Wang Tian could only smile wryly as he screamed internally as he imagined how terrible his life would be then.

While everyone had a general joyous atmosphere, this was not the case for everyone.

"Wei'er, I appreciate that you make so much effort for me. But my situation is only slightly better than Yu Yong," said Wang Chang. "Even if I had a Heaven Will on my own, with my Dao Heart, I would probably only be a Pseudo Emperor.

"There is no need to waste your time and effort. I'm more than satisfied with being a Dao Ancestor."

The room instantly became quiet while people were secretly watching Wang Wei. However, he was calm. He raised his hand to make hand signs:

"In that case, let's use Plan B. I will turn you into an Insurgent Heaven Chosen so that you can fight and defeat Emperor Nine Suns. Since he is the main cause of your Dao Heart falling apart, defeating him might solve it,

"Then, I will send you to reincarnation with all your memories intact. I will link your fate to the sect so that you can be reborn as one of its members. However, that will require you to give up all your powers and start all over again, with no guarantee of success."

Wang Chang's eyes lit up after hearing this. This was indeed a good method. If he could pummel Emperor Nine Suns with his fist...

"Haha," laughed Wang Chang out loud with very bright eyes.

"Good, good, good. I like your plan."

For the first time in a very long time, he felt motivated. Wang Chang has always felt that battle was robbed from him using cheap tricks. Although he knew that for the throne, only the final victor truly matters not the method used.

But that did not change how he felt. Fortunately, now, he had a chance at redeeming himself. Thinking about avenging himself for all the terrible things he experienced in that final illusion, excitement and a terrifying fighting intent emanated from his body.

It took him a few minutes to restrain his aural; he even apologized. That's how good of a mood he was in. Then, the group discussed it in detail before leaving.

Only Wang Wei and Wang Tian were left as they had a final detail to figure out.
