Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1227

Chapter 1227 The Barbarian King

Wang Wei sat comfortably in a chair with a list in his hands, which contained the resources he could exchange in this Battle Pagoda. As someone with 5000 victories, he's entitled to 5000 Battle Points and an additional 5000 points for a perfect winning streak.

'Most of the resources are not rare. However, the fact he could get his hands on them in this place, and possibly on a large scale, is proof of the Barbarian King's ability,' Wang Wei commented.

'However, a few things are eye-raising.' He saw Heaven Wills on the list as exchangeable resources. 'Could this place also give birth to Heaven Wills?' He immediately denied this. If this were true, the top lineages would do everything they could to conquer this place.

'Maybe he has deep connections, including with the pavilions,' Wang Wei summarized. His eyes shifted to what genuinely caught his attention on the list. "What is the effect of the Battle Temple?" He was curious since this was the priciest thing on the list, requiring Battle Points per hour to access.

"I'm sorry, sir, but only people on the fourth floor are privy to this information," replied a well-mannered woman with blue hair, a white robe, and a reassuring smile.

"That's fine. Anyway, let's get this over with."

"It's good to be confident," the receptionist replied with a businesslike smile. After reviewing footage of your battles, we've granted you the title [Domineering Fist]."

'Cliche, and a little bit cringe, but that's fine since it's not that important in the grand scheme of things,' Wang Wei thought.

'No reaction?' thought the receptionist. "Do you want to climb immediately or rest in the housing area?"

"I have some people with me, so let's rest first."

"As you wish."

Someone led Wang Wei to a mansion on this floor. He let all these women stay there while he observed the house. He sensed something, so he closed his eyes.

'This house provides a small blessing to comprehending the Grand Dao Source,' he analyzed. 'I'm starting to get a bigger picture of the Barbarian King.'

The next day, Wang Wei started his first match on the first floor. According to the rules, he might have to experience one or multiple battles to determine whether to ascend to the second floor, and the exact criteria are unknown to anyone. Although this seems unfair, Wang Wei had no complaints.

His first opponent was a strange Dao Ancestor Insurgent who held a shield in his left hand and a curved sword in his right with the title of [The Elusive Guard]. The two stared at each other as a number manifested between Heaven and Earth to serve as a countdown.

3… 2…. 1… Begin.

Wang Wei appeared before the man and punched him. "Hmm? You actually evaded it?" Although he was not trying, not just anybody could evade his attack. "How did you do it?" The Elusive Guard's body trembled as these two gray eyes looked at him up and down; he felt naked as all his secrets became an open book.

Above him, a win-lose ratio of 2349 to 0 manifested. This ratio might appear small, but considering the high requirements for the ninth floor, it was actually impressive that so many people finally received the opportunity to face him.

"Hmm? A Barbarian with a Giant Race bloodline?" Wang Wei commented. "What a strange combination. This battle might be interesting." As soon as he laid eyes on this person, he knew he was a worthy adversary. The Barbarian King was a peak Indestructible Empyrean that achieved [Limit Indestructibility].

'His Body-Will Fusion is already in the Advanced Stage, one step from perfection,' Wang Wei thought, and his eyes immediately shone. 'This man is an unparalleled genius.'

"Interesting indeed," The Barbarian King spoke, his voice deep but also reassuring. "I thought this would just be a match to display my power after so long. But you might be a truly worthy opponent."

"I'm honored," Wang Wei said without any signs of respect whatsoever. He released his aura, and the Barbarian King grinned, showing his rows of white teeth before also doing the same. Their aura clash twisted the void, and the crowd watching went wild. The battle countdown ended, and Wang Wei rushed forward.

Boom!

His body flew backward, crashing through a few mountains. He had to use his superb control of force to reduce the attack's effect and stop himself from continuing. He looked at the right side of his body, and it was gone. It calmly regenerated as he sighed.

'As expected,' he sighed. The Barbarian King had reached the peak of 10 Heavens while he was still in the third. Additionally, this monster had the bloodline of the Giant Race while being a barbarian — meaning strength was his strong suit.

The Barbarian King laughed as he appeared before Wang Wei. "You have it! The madness of truly talented body refiners who wish to test the limit of their bodies against anything and anyone. It's been a while since I met another kin."
