Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 632

Origin Weapon Mountain:

Chen Chen ended the formation, deep in thought. The past few years have not been kind to him. He did not show up in the early stages of this Glorious Age, waiting for the opportune time.

During his time in hiding, Chen Chen was confident he was par with all the other Heaven Chosens. His competition with Tong Ruobing was proof of his prowess. Unfortunately, everything changed after she encountered a man named Wu Ming.

Chen Chen did not know what she got from him. But after that encounter, she easily surpassed him, frustrating him beyond words. And things worsened when he encountered Heaven Chosens like Wang Wei, Feng Heng, Huo Fenghuang, and others. He realized these people were in a class of their own, and his rival, Tong Ruobing, was now part of this class.

Chen Chen's ambition has always been to create the most powerful artifact in history, surpassing the All-Encompassing Mirror that the Refiner Ancestor created. The mirror is, without a doubt, the most powerful artifact of the Myriad Emperor World–despite the Refiner Ancestor being only a Pseudo Eternal Emperor.

Chen Chen wanted to create the most powerful artifact of the lower dimension, surpassing all artifacts in the lower dimension. And without proving the Dao and becoming an Eternal Emperor, he could not accomplish his goal.

After sighing in desolation, Chen Chen took out a booklet from his space ring, a pondering look deep in his eyes. Two hundred years ago, he received a fortunate encounter that could change his life.

It was the inheritance from a foreign Heaven Will World named Mechanized Puppet World. He did not know this inheritance was in the Myriad Emperor World, nor did he care.

The cultivation system of that world involved created a puppet that is empty inside, and the cultivators can enter to control. The puppets are essentially operated armors; that's the best way Chen Chen could describe them.

Chen Chen did not care for the novelty of this system. In his eyes, these puppets were nothing but well-crafted magical artifacts used in another system. Furthermore, he could see the flaw in this system: reliance on foreign aid.

The cultivators who controlled the puppets were naturally weak, having only cultivated their spiritual power to control the puppets better and have the ability to create and update them.

In the later stages of this system, cultivators can create Law Puppets, but they still have to summon their puppets from their Sea of Consciousness when needed for battle. If someone is fast enough, they can take advantage of this flaw.

This issue is solved only after the Heaven Will Battle. After proving the Dao, the cultivator will inherit their puppets' power, while the artifacts will become something similar to a Proving Dao Artifact.

A technique considered forbidden in the Mechanized Puppet World allowed the cultivators to fuse with their mechanized puppets permanently: to eliminate the boundaries between flesh and metal, human and puppet, to eliminate the boundaries of self and tool.

The moment Chen Chen read about this technique, he thought about fusing with an Emperor Tier Puppet. Of course, reasons told him that was impossible, but he still could do it for an Immortal Tier one. However, this technique had a high failure rate, and the consequence was worse than death.

He previously rejected taking such risks. But now, as he watched his peers surpass him, as he sensed the upcoming era, he hesitated.

'Was the risk worth it?' That's all he could think about.

Chen Chen spent the next few hours thinking to himself, asking not to be disturbed. Then, he gritted his teeth as he made a decision.

"Tell the elders I'm going to the Refiner Paradise World." Chen Chen believed that he had a higher chance of success if he refined the Immortal Tier Puppet himself. And only in places like the Refiner Paradise World– where Refining Masters can prove the Dao only based on their skills–would grant him the skill to achieve such a feat.

…

People reacted differently to the Assembly. However, one consensus that every participant agreed upon: a new era of strife was upon the world, and the Son of an Era had a plan for that era.

After finishing the negotiations, Wang Wei headed to Li Jun's mountain to meet the latter. It has been a while since they talked and interacted. After serving tea, the three reminisced about what had happened to them.

"Nothing exciting occurred for a while," explained Li Jun. "After receiving the talisman from the Ancestor, I went into retreat–even using the time formation."

"You must have gotten quite the result?" asked Wang Wei.

"Indeed. I realized how much I'd underused my physique."

"As long as you learn. Liling, what about you?"

"A lot occurred. I received the Ancestor's talisman right after the Automatic Cauldron succeeded in producing Heaven Grade Pills. And with what I learned, Saint Pills won't be a problem."

"That's good news," nodded Wang Wei. "What about the Acquired Source Rune Physique I mentioned?"

"I've succeeded," she replied before raising her hand, displaying as it turned into a hand made of runes. "I've turned all the cells in my body into runes, as you suggested."

"But why do I feel you're not that excited."
