Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 299

After arriving at Maple Leaf City, Lou Cheng did not immediately contact the seller, but instead used the branch of the Alchemy Association to find his identity; he did not want to walk into a trap.

After a brief investigation, he discovered that the seller was just an ordinary cultivator at the Body Refining Realm. In order to get resources, he will often go to the mountain area to fight against demonic beasts and sell their core and corpse for origin stones.

Luckily for him, while there, he accidentally discovered a rare herb and wanted to sell it for a high price at the Alchemy Association. However, after learning that an alchemist had posted a call for this herb, he was adamant about meeting him.

After reviewing the information, Lou Cheng realized that there was nothing wrong so far and that the seller most likely wanted to ask him for some rare pill, so he decided to meet the man.

If the price is not too exaggerated, he is open to trade.

Inside a large room in the Alchemy Association Branch, Lou Cheng looked at the man in front of him. He was wearing tight leather clothes that facilitated easy movement, and also had some defensive ability. However, he could also see that the man’s clothes were also worn out.

After checking the man’s clothes, Lou Cheng observed other things about him. The man had a 9th Layer Body Refining cultivation, however, his blood qi was weak and scattered. Obviously, he cultivated a common-level cultivation technique.

Adding to that the fact that he looked middle-aged, his talent could also be determined as subpar.

"You said you wanted to see me before the exchange? Tell me your purpose," said Lou Cheng, who seemed a little impatient.

The seller frowned for a moment, then said: "Well, I was preparing to play a little more, however, since you’re in a hurry, I guess I’ll get back to business."

Immediately, Lou Cheng felt something was wrong; he immediately wanted to do something, but to his horror, he discovered that he could not move a single inch.

Meanwhile, his Dao Protector also felt something was wrong, so he wanted to exit the void and save Lou Cheng. However, as soon as he had this intention, countless strings suddenly appeared out of nowhere and binds him.

The old man immediately started to use his Fire Law to break the strings, however, countless runes suddenly appeared from the strings and sealed the Law inside his body.

Then, a grey string entered his Sea of Consciousness and binds his soul. Immediately afterward, the old man felt his consciousness rapidly losing, turning him into a puppet. He only resisted for a few seconds before he was completely turned.

The seller--who had a smirk on his face--raised his hand and placed it on Lou Cheng’s forehead, then he said:

"[Fate Stealing]"

A fate line appeared from Lou Cheng’s body, wriggling around it for a moment. Then, another fate line appeared from Wang Wei’s body which fused with his.

Lou Cheng’s body disintegrated into millions of pieces, meanwhile, Wang Wei slowly transformed into Lou Cheng’s appearance.

And it was not just his appearance, his soul, cultivation level, physique, aptitude, and memories turned into the same as Lou Cheng. What he did was steal the latter’s fate, thus turning into him.

With this method, Wang Wei is now Lou Cheng, but Lou Cheng is not Wang Wei.

After his transformation, Wang Wei checked his body from head to toe. He discovered that he was exactly like Lou Cheng--even his little brother had shrunk by a few inches.

"Well, with this method, I can even fool an Emperor Formation that checks the soul."

Then, Wang Wei waved his hand to use a secret technique to create a clone that looked exactly like the previous seller. He proceeded to make it look like Lou Cheng and he had an exchange before parting their ways.
