Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Feng Heng calmly looked as his opponent dispersed his opponent. His mind was not entirely focused on this battle. He sensed two gazes calmly watching this battle, and he could guess these two’s minds–they won’t let hide anymore.

‘Has my Heaven Will Battle come to an end?’ thought Feng Heng, with extreme calmness. Buddhism has three poisons–greed, hatred or aversion, and ignorance. With his deep Dharma, he can control his three poisons–especially his greed.

Of course, it also helped that his Emperor Path was not over. Heavenly Dao owed Buddhism great karma for their destruction. So, as long as he uses his Heart of Hope, adding his merit of reviving Buddhism, Heavenly Dao has to condense another Heaven Will for him.

To be precise, True Heavenly Dao has to do so since the Myriad Emperor World’s Heavenly Dao has already used too much World Source to condense this generation’s destiny and Heaven Will.

‘Although I can no longer continue this battle, there is still a way I can benefit,’ pondered Feng Heng. ‘The Five Element Balance Place holds some part of the Qi Luck of Taoism.’

The palace is the origin of Taoism in the Myriad Emperor World, so even if the Taiyi Profound Gate replaced them as the leader of Taoism in the world, they could not strip them of all their Qi Luck.

After making a decision, he decided to go all out and end this battle as soon as possible. He did not know what those two were planning. And if he was not careful, the best-case scenario would be to become someone’s chess piece, and the worst outcome would be his death.

Feng Heng clasped his hands together, and his face full of compassion was replaced by a terrifying serenity. By now, no one would believe he was a peace-loving monk, showing how seriously he was taking things.

In this battle, Feng Heng enjoyed using Buddhist Spells and Techniques. After all, this battlefield was no longer influenced by the Absolute Beginning Magic. However, his Buddhist Methods were not his best killing tools.

Boom!

Zhen Biyu suddenly exploded before crashing on the ground like a meteor. Her landing created a crater more than a hundred meters deep.

“What is going on?”

She could not hide the confusion she felt. She did not see her opponent move, open his mouth, or even sense any law fluctuation. Without any reason or explanation, a potent attack landed on her, and she suffered serious damage.

Even her passive damage barely reduced some of the attacking potency.

Bang!

Another indescribable attack arrived again. Zhen Biyu protected herself with a five-element shield, but it was useless. The left side of her body was missing, and she looked as if some terrifying creature had taken a large bite out of her body.

The phantom of a tree appeared behind her, and Zhen Biyu’s body glowed with green light. In an instant, her body returned to its peak state, leaving only her tattered clothes as proof of her previous predicament.

Swish!

Zhen Biyu’s danger sense took control of her body as she moved the side. Her action resulted in something cutting off her left arm, but she avoided being split into two from the middle.

‘What kind of weird attack is this?’

She used all her experience to calm down and analyze the situation. Unfortunately, her face suddenly changed as she sensed something else. Zhen Biyu discovered she could not heal her missing arm.

Feng Heng’s Duyi Realm canceled hers out, preventing her from healing. However, this was not the main issue; she sensed a power that would revert her body to the previously damaged state every time she healed.

‘The Law of Time? No, that’s the Law of Absolute Beginning.’

Zhen Biyu encased her body in a deep black rock. However, this rock was not ordinary. Her technique was a simple condense rock; however, she pushed it to the extreme. 

She generated enough earth to create a continent on par with a smaller Heaven Will World. Then, she condensed all that continent into a rock sphere using unparalleled pressure.

The defense of this rock is even greater than the hardest metal armor she previously created.

Sadly, it was useless. Feng Heng’s next attack removed the side of her head, showing the half-destroyed brain. Luckily, she is a mighty cultivator. Her body was baptized by the law, generating a vitality, unlike any mortal. So, even with a half-destroyed brain, she can still survive for a while.

“Absolute Beginning,” she muttered Zhen Biyu as her eyes became bright as she remembered some of the Taoist scriptures she had read.’If you revert the world to its Absolute Beginning, then we will reach the time of nothingness.

‘But nothingness is formless, cannot be seen, detected, and is infinite.’

She understood the core of this technique. Feng Heng used Absolute Beginning Dao to control one of Nothingness’s characteristics: Formessless.

As such, his attack has no form and cannot be detected.

“Tao gave birth to one, one gave birth to two, two gave birth to three, and three gave birth to myriad things,” chanted Zhen Biyu. “One of the first myriad things between Heaven and Earth is the five elements. When the world changed from [formless] state to a state of [form or shape], the five elements were the cornerstone.”

Zhen Biyu used the power of the Five Elements to access the power of [Form], the antithesis of [Formless]. With this method, her mind entered a state where she could not see her opponent’s attack.

Furthermore, she also used Feng Heng’s Absolute Beginning Power to revert her Wood Elements to the purest form when Heaven and Earth were first born. And with this pure, even primordial Wood Element, she countered Feng Heng’s power and healed her injuries.

‘She’s a worthy challenger,’ thought Feng Heng after seeing the brilliant method the enemy used to fight against his attack. After studying the Absolute Beginning Sutra, this technique was one of his greatest masterpieces. It’s unfortunate he could not develop this technique to a higher level since that would require him to get involved in the taboo that is Nothingness.

Feng Heng calmly looked at his opponent as he continued his offense. He no longer used his Formless Attack since he knew Zhen Biyu could detect and block it.

[Absolute End]

Feng Heng waved his hand, and the surroundings changed. Everything turned white and black. Immediately afterward, Zhen Biyu discovered the vitality in her body was rapidly decreasing.

‘I am…aging.’ She felt her lifespan was passing at an alarming rate. In a few seconds, she aged more than a hundred years. She generated a Five Element Shield around her, but the thing also aged before dispersing.

‘All things must eventually reach their Absolute End,’ she thought.

[Incarnation of Earth]

Zhen Biyu’s body changed as a yellow aura emanated, followed by the earth mark on her forehead. Heaven and Earth must eventually come to an end; however, they also have a terribly long lifespan and won’t reach their fate after billions of years.

With this technique, she embodied the Earth itself, thus temporarily granting her a lifespan of billions.

‘I can delay his technique with this method, but it’s not enough,’ thought Zhen Biyu with a frown. Certain Daos are more powerful than others and give people advantages. And the Absolute Beginning-End Dao that touches on Time Dao can overwhelm her Five Element Dao.

So, when she meets someone on a similar level as her with such potent Dao, the situation will become difficult; she needs to use her ingenuity to push her Dao beyond normal boundaries.

‘I should not be as passive,’ thought Zhen Biyu as she decided to use some of her trump cards.

Bang!

Their dimension began to tremble as a towering tree manifested behind Zhen Biyu, shocking Feng Heng and many people watching this battle.

‘A high-level and mature World Tree?’ thought Feng Heng. World Tree is one of the few spiritual plants with no grade and is purely based on how much it is developed. 

Furthermore, high-level World Trees are sought after by both mortals and Immortals. And that’s because it can cultivate Insurgents.

Immortal Venerables wish to fuse with it so their bodies can store an immense quantity of Immortal Qi. Meanwhile, Dao Ancestors want to plant World Trees into their Inner World to become equal to Great Emperors.

As long as they succeed, the World Tree will allow them to use their Inner World to control the Grand Dao Source to the same level as Great Emperors.

Furthermore, World Tree is a growable type of resource. As long as the tree continues to develop, it’s possible for a person to remain an Insurgent after becoming a Dao Ruler and Dao Monarch.

In the upper dimension, most things that make a person an Insurgent at Tier 10 (Great Emperor) will be useless after reaching Tier 11 (Empyrean), let alone Tier 12 (Paragon). 

However, World Trees are of the few resources that can accompany a cultivator for all their lives.
