Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 222

After hearing this information, Wang Wei had a frown on his face as he pondered. Although he could roughly understand her meaning, he still asked: "What do you mean?"

After saying that, Wang Wei took out some of the leftovers from the Saint Realm Golden Roc meat and ate them in order to replenish his energy. Too many things happened to him in just a day.

Of course he also set a plate for Wu Hong, however she did not seem that hungry.

"What do you know about breaking through the Primordial Spirit Realm?" asked Wu Hong instead of answering directly.

"Well, to put it simply, after a cultivator uses their Good Fortune Flame to refine a divine body for them that can withstand the power of Law, they enter the Divine Body Realm.

"Then, they have to use the same Good Fortune Flame to refine their soul into a Primordial Spirit--which is necessary to be able to wield the power of Law."

After saying that, Wang Wei stopped with a deep frown on his face; he was thinking deeply this time. It took him a while to wake up.

"So you have already figured it out?" asked Wu Hong. "With how powerful your Paragon Soul is, it is impossible for your Good Fortune Flame to actually refine it into a Primordial Spirit--unless you abandon the Paragon quality soul."

Of course Wang Wei would never do such a thing; even if this Paragon soul is nothing but a pain in his arse so far, he knew that he would benefit from it greatly in the future--as long as he can get through the troubles it brings.

After thinking for a brief moment, Wang Wei waved his hand, then his Good Fortune Flame appeared in the palm of his hand:

"My Good Fortune Flame is different from the normal one, are you sure it will not be enough?" he asked.

Even the best of Good Fortune Flame has only twelve colors, but he had an extra color, signifying his transcendence.

After looking at the 13-colored Good Fortune Flame, Wu Hong stared at it for a while before muttering: "9 is the extreme, and 12 is perfection. 13 is detachment."

Wang Wei had heard of this saying before, but not the last part of it. He wanted to ask what "detachment" was, but he learned from his mistake and decided to shut his mouth. He was already under a lot of psychological pressure from all the things he learned in one day, so he did not need anymore.

Plus, he knew that Wu Hong would not answer him this time.

"So, does my Good Fortune Flame make it possible for me to break through the Primordial Spirit Realm?" asked Wang Wei.

"Well," replied Wu Hong after waking up from her momentary daze. "It only increases your chances, but that’s all. On its own, it is still impossible for you to make a breakthrough."

"Well, what should I do now? Any idea?" asked Wang Wei.

"Unfortunately, no," replied Wu Hong. "Plus, you do not need my help. I am sure that during our conversation, you have thought of a few methods to solve the problem." She had a bright smile on her face when she said that.

Wang Wei nodded in acknowledgement as he did indeed have a few plans. Although he did not know whether they would work, he still has a few hundred if not thousand of years before he has to worry about breaking through the Primordial Spirit Realm.

So, he was not that worried as he had plenty of time to come up with other and better solutions.

However, he was worried about something. He discovered that his mentality had slightly changed after meeting Wu Hong. He realized that in such a short time, he was beginning to rely too much on her.

Wang Wei knew that this could not be helped as Wu Hong knew so much more than him and her input in things are usually vastly different than his, but he also warned himself not to rely on her too much--unless absolutely necessary.

After all, if he develops such a mentality, then it would be impossible for him to continue his Path of Emperor. A True Emperor is someone that can shoulder both Heaven and Earth on their own.

Although they can receive help from other people, they should never rely too heavily on someone else; they should never become a crutch.

"Then, all the cultivators in the Myriad Emperor World learned about the horror of the Endless Void. Another powerful Heaven Will World named the Nine Devil God World suddenly invaded our own.

"These devils were a cruel and bloodthirsty race that took pleasure in slaughter, rape, and destruction. It did not matter whether it was children, woman or man, human or demon race, they killed everything in their sight.

"They basically enslaved all races in the Myriad Emperor World and treated them as livestock. As a matter of fact, their entire cultivation system relies on committing sin and negative karma in order to reach a higher realm. _{ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com}

"So, the more terrible things they did, the stronger they became. These people then committed the worst and most unimaginable crime or sins possible.

"The worst thing was the fact that this world actually had 9 Great Emperors at once called the Devil Gods. Although the [Human-Preservation Array] prevented these Demon Gods from entering our world, it did not change much.

"The cultivators of the Myriad Emperor World were still not a match for all the other devil races that managed to enter. Adding to that, these devils seemed to have a method that allowed them to compete for the Heaven Will without an identity token.

"So for an entire Era, the majority of Great Emperors cultivated in our world were actually from the Devil Race. The situation was actually similar to back in the Incense Era with Buddhism--at least this was the current theory as not much information is left about Buddhism from that Era.

"Of course not all the Great Emperors were from the Nine Devil God World. Some genius in our world managed to defy the odds and prove the Dao. Unfortunately, they were immediately besieged by the Nine Devil Gods and either killed, sealed or exiled.

"Then there was a Great Emperor from the Sword Casting Villa that managed to kill two of the nine Demon Gods, then he negotiated a temporary peace with the others--which brought time for our world to recuperate.

"However, it was then that we learned that the Heaven Will of the Nine Devil God World was actually a position. After one of the devil races acquire the Heaven Will, they will become a Devil God and serve the world for a period of time. After their services are finished, they can leave with the Heaven Will and become a true Great Emperor.

"And one way that these Devil Gods figured out to reduce their long sentences in that position was to actually invade other worlds, then sacrifice either the entire world or the Heaven Will of that world to the Heavenly Dao of their own world. Then they can be free.

"The Devil Era lasted quite some time until Empress Wu appeared and ended it. That’s the general summary of that time."
