Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Qiao Ning led Wang Wei to the center of her garden, and with a wave of her hand, the garden split into two parts, revealing a glowing green piece of dirt or mud.

"This is the Yellow Qi Soil, an innate material known to be able to nourish any lands and make them fertile. Back in ancient times, many powerful people would use it to make their spiritual gardens to grow medicine.

"And in current time, many Great Emperors have searched left and right for similar materials, but only a few succeeded."

Wang Wei frowned, then asked: "Are you given to me? Just like that?"

Qiao Ning nodded her head calmly.

"Why? You should know that I'm Di Tian's competitor and the consequences of doing so?"

Qiao Ning looked in the sky, marveled at the beautiful sun, then replied: "You might not understand what I'm saying yet, but some things are simply fated to happen. Instead of fighting it, it's best to make good use of the situation."

She then looked at him. "As for the reason I'm given you this herb so easily, you can think of it as me preparing for the future. I'm sowing a seed of karma that you'll have to repay someday."

Wang Wei frowned as he pondered his next action. He always knew that this woman was weird, and now he finally know for sure that she was. For once, she should have died long ago, but is still existing.

Even if she turned into a spirit or ghost, she should not be able to survive from the Emperor Beginning Era.

More importantly, she did not have a Fate Line. According to previous tests, even ghosts and spirits have a Fate Line, but she did not, making her a somewhat unexplainable existence.

After pondering for a while, Wang Wei said: "I accept your Karma." Although he knew that he will have to pay it one day, he still accept the benefit it will provide him now.

After using the proper method to take the Yellow Qi Soil from the garden and placed it on the proper containment, Wang Wei asked: "Since you want to sow Karma, how about telling me information regarding Innate Fire Material?"

"What a cheeky youngster," replied Qiao Ning with a smile. "Unfortunately, all the Innate Fire Material I know have already been taken and used. Your best chance at finding one would be to discover a Secret Realm from the Primordial Era."

"Secret Realm from the Primordial Era? Does such a thing exist?"

"You know about the Primordial Era?"

"I know a few things."

Qiao Ning nodded her head. "When the Chaos Qi and Innate Qi started to disappear from the world, Heavenly Dao created a few secrets realms full of them to preserve some of the rare materials.

"And it will periodically release them to nourish the current Origin Path Civilization. However, in this current era, the number of these secret realms existing can probably be counted on one hand, and it seems that none of them is appearing anytime soon."

Wang Wei nodded his head, then conversed with her for a few hours before leaving. As Qiao Ning watched his departing back, she muttered: "Tian'er, even if you succeed, would you be the same person that I fell in love with? Time has been cruel to you."

Then she watched until Wang Wei was out of her sight, "He is a lot like you, the only difference is that he has not lost everything dear to him. Hopefully, that remains true."

After leaving the Cleansing Self Sect, Wang Wei did not immediately use Teleportation Formation to return to the Central Continent, nor did he ask Yan Chen to take him there.

He flew to the nearest big city under the occupation of the Yin Moon Sect. He walked into a station.

"Sir, where would like to go?" asked the attendant who sold the ticket.

"Longwei City," replied Wang Wei.

"That's a long drive, still worth it though" replied the attendant. "That would be a 1000 low-level origin stone."

"Isn't that price a little too much for mortals to afford?"

"Sir, why would mortals travel by Crawling Dragon Construct?"

"From what I hear, the constructs are quite affordable to both mortals and cultivators in the Central Continent," replied Wang Wei.

"Well, things are different here in the East."

Shaking his head, Wang Wei paid the fee and entered the train or construct. Since he paid for an entire compartment, he sat alone, watching the views through the window.

The speed of this train was nothing compared to the ones back on Earth. 

"I cannot believe that the constructs have already spread so far after only 200 years," said Yan Chen through Divine Sense.

"To me, this speed is not nearly enough. 200 years is equivalent to a few generations for mortals."

"The society of us cultivators operate at a slower pace than mortals due to our long lifespan. Adding to that how vast our world is actually, it should take a few thousand years or more for these modern ideas as you called them to spread throughout the entire world."

"That's true, but I'm guessing that this was not the only reason. I'm sure a bunch of conservative old men has realized the change that the world is going through, and they do not like it. Since they cannot stop it, they decided to slow its progress," replied Wang Wei with a sneer.

Yan Chen sighed. If it was not his sect's young master who instigated this change, he probably would be one of these conservative old men.

"Young master, what are you going to do once they are spread all over the world?"

"The next step would be to form another alliance and connect all four continents together; that way, trade would be much easier."

"In that case, you will have to deal with the Sea Race; they will not allow anyone to use or occupy the ocean without their permission."

"You are right. However, as you said, there is still a lot of time left. And with these people secretly meddling, there might be no result until I become Emperor. Anyway, I originally wanted people to imitate our constructs as a way to establish a foundation I can build on after I prove the Dao.

"So, there is no need to rush."

Wang Wei enjoyed the ride while comparing this construct to the ones he created. Midway through the voyage, there was a slight disturbance with a cultivator trying to make trouble. Unfortunately, he probably did not know that the Yin Moon Sect had disciples stationed at the train for situations like this, so he was beaten and kicked out.

After arriving at his destination, Wang Wei visited the city. However, the process was not as enjoyable as he imagined, or led to believe.

Although the cuisine was as exquisite as the rumors, the entire city was full of drunk swordsmen fighting one another. He could not get along with these men who loved their swords more than their own mothers and wives.

Plus, he was recognized, leading the city lord to make a big fuss out of the situation. So, after enjoying the food, he left with Yan Chen.

After returning home, Wang Wei got straight to business. He flew to an open field where Wang Ju was waiting for him. In front of them were countless mortals, mostly dressed in ragged clothes.

"Did you do everything according to my instructions?"

"Yes, young master. Half of them are criminals with heinous crimes, while the other half are people with pure hearts and lived an honest life."

"Did you tell the good one the consequence of their decisions?"

"Yes."

"What about their payment?"

"Yes. All their descendant will be taking care of for 9 generations. If they happen to have someone with the ability to cultivate, even if their talents are mediocre, the sect will still accept them as disciples."

Wang Wei nodded his head before looking at the large crowd. He waved his hand, then the Fate Lines of all the people manifested themselves. Then, with another wave, a scissor appeared and cut these Fate Lines, making all these people falling to the ground.

'With 13 million Fate Lines of both negative and positive Karma, I can create a powerful and unique Proven Dao Artifact.'

"Give these people a proper burial and tombstone," said Wang Wei to Wang Ju, then he flew home. He immediately entered the Refining Room and sat in the lotus position.

He took out a bunch of grey sand.

"Since this Destiny Sand was the only material that the sect could find related to Fate, I had to improvise my own. I even had to create the Divine Runes needed for the refinement. Luckily, I had the [Eight Trigram Turtle Shell] as an example, otherwise, this would have taken forever."

A fire appeared in his hand and he started using the secret technique to refine the Fate Lines and Destiny Sand into an artifact.
