Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 694 Chaos (III)

694 Chaos (III)

“Who are you?” asked Huang Yuan, looking at the cold and indifferent before him. The man’s eyes were bright, and they placed an intense, almost tangible, pressure on him; it was like he was looking at a beast with extremely sharp edges.
“Sword Demon, Dugu Jing, from Myriad Law World.’
Huang Yuan had never heard about such a place. However, this was not the time to care about these things. His mind began to work on overdrive, thinking about how to deal with this situation.
“Are you also here for the Eternal Supreme Inheritance?” he asked, hoping to keep talking and buy himself more time.
“I don’t need any inheritance.”
Only a few people could proclaim with certainty they would be Eternal Emperors–let alone Eternal Supreme, so Huang Yuan did not know whether he should admire this man’s confidence or sneer at his ignorance. He wanted to say something, but Dugu Jing interrupted him:
“Stop wasting time,” he said coldly. “I only care about challenging powerhouses. If you are a worthy challenger, I can spare your life.”
Huang Yuan squinted his eyes, “Arrogant, I see.” The book appeared before him as Life-Death Innate Laws shone before him. The fact he can display the book’s innate laws shows how much control Huang Yuan has and its deep connection.
Sword Demon Dugu Jing did not say anything else but swung his sword, sending a golden sword to his opponent. Huang Yuan swiftly responded and brought death to the attack.
Unfortunately, the slash cut off his attack and headed directly toward his body, forcing him to surround himself with the most powerful shield he could muster. The terrifying power of the slash pushed him dozens of meters back, leaving marks on the soil.
“Law of Gold,” he muttered with an ugly look. He thought he had met a peerless pure swordsman, but he was wrong–he encountered something even scarier. The person in front of him was part of the lowest swordsman category that used their sword to control a law; he controlled Gold Law, one of the primary laws that these swordsmen loved to use.
However, Dugu Jing was nothing but ordinary or lowly. Each of the Five Elements has some attributes associated with them. Fire is wild, explosive, and a few other things. Water is vast, nourishing, and wrathful. Earth is sturdy, suppressing, and towering. Wood is full of life or vitality. Meanwhile, one of the main attributes of metal is “sharpness.”
Dugu Jing focused on that aspect to support his Sword Cultivation, reaching a level equal to some of the best pure swordsmen.
The Sword Demon calmly watched his opponent before attacking a second time. Huang Yuan felt his eyes hut and his skin itched simply due to the overwhelming sharpness of that slash.
[Undead Army]
Huang Yuan summoned a large number of dead bodies. Upon closer inspection, these people’s skeletons were different colors: black, silver, gold, and some glistened like pure jade–they were body refiners. Unfortunately, the golden slash cut through these people’s bodies as easily as a sharp knife cutting through butter.
[Samsara Shield]
He used the power generated by the alternation between Life and Death Laws to acquire the power of Samsara.
Bang! His shield only lasted for a few seconds before breaking apart. Luckily for him, his technique blocked the attack, saving his life. Huang Yuan became pale.
The Life-Death Book was intact. After all, it was an Extreme Innate Treasure, on par with some Chaos Treasure. However, this was the root of the problem: he could not use its full power. The shield broke not because the book was weak but because he could not support using it.
“You’re too weak,” commented Dugu Jing. “However, it’s understandable since you rely too much on external aid.
“Foreign aid?” uttered Huang Yuan with a sneer.
“Are you powerful, or the book makes you powerful? If you can’t even see such an obvious thing, there is no hope for you to become a powerhouse.”
“You have broken through the Mortal-Immortal Boundary. Are you the only one in your world?”
“No, there are two others. But they are not my opponent.”
“You’re lucky there are you three. In my world, there are at least seven people. Moreover, two of them can fight and kill Dao Ancestor. Not to mention other variables that might affect the battle level during the final battle.
“In such a situation, relying on foreign aid is my only choice.”
Dugu Jing squinted his eyes as he remembered the terrible fluctuation he sensed in another territory a little while back. Although he only felt a slight fluctuation, he felt the terror.
‘One of my peers has such strength?’ He thought someone used some Dao Talisman to have such power. His eyes became brighter as he wanted to challenge that person. Dugu Jing knew he could not win and probably even die. However, he did not care.
His pursuit is to fight powerful opponents and sublimate himself and his soul through battle and life and death trials.
“Let me send you on the way,” he said with his usual cold tone. As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Huang Yuan acted and used his best escape technique. He brought death to the surrounding space to manipulate it and teleport to an unknown location.
Swish!
Dugu Jing’s slash cut off the space and stopped his escape. He then swung his sword for a second time. Huang Yuan’s face became ugly as he watched that brilliant light coming toward him. He felt his thinking slow down and his body unable to move; more importantly, he felt his upcoming death.
At the very last moment, he did one thing: he summoned Fan Qianhan to appear before him. If he is going to die, he’ll take her with him. Furthermore, there is a slight chance Dugu Jing did not want to kill a woman and stop the attack. Or, an even small probability that using her as a shield would allow him to survive.
Swish!
A white light enveloped the two, and they disappeared from sight. Dugu Jing immediately became on guard, thinking an enemy had approached him, and he was incapable of detecting it. He searched the surrounding area with his Divine Sense but found nothing.
‘Could it be?’
…
p-A- n-d-A-n-0-v-e-1、(c)om Huang Yuan and Fan Qianhan appeared in another small world created by Wang Wei’s formation. He immediately looked around, hyper-alert to his environment.
“I’m saved? But who did it?”
He barely finished his words before a thick red thread appeared above his head and connected to him. He reacted and tried to defend himself with the Life-Death Book, but it was useless. The Karma Thread attached to him, and he knew he owed a heavy debt: the debt of life-saving.
‘Could it be him? But why would he save me?’ He did not think it was simply to ower a Karma Debt.
‘Don’t think about it. Let’s heal first.’ The sharpness of that attack affected his soul simply because he looked at it, and it was so close to him.
In another territory:
Mo Xingyun’s body was slowly falling apart due to the besiegement of a group of people.
“I’ve told you many times: I’m a puppet. There is no reward for killing me,” she tried to persuade them.
“That is yet to be determined. Plus, this puppet’s craftsmanship is quite unique. With the right buyer, it should be worth a lot of money.”
Mo Xingyun frowned as she continued to resist.
‘The Luck backlash is worse than I thought.’ The Heaven-Devouring Emperor knew Heavenly Dao did approve of his method of reviving. And the technique used to counter him is through calculations and a backlash of luck. He foresaw this situation, hence the reason he only took over Mo Xingyun’s body after she reached a certain level.
Unfortunately, he did not expect it to be this bad. After arriving on this continent, he had suspicions about the Seven Devil Kings since he knew about the Devil Primogenitor.
And when Gluttony’s troops attacked his men to prevent him from killing more devils, he saw Gluttony’s generals use some power from his Dao and recognized what it was.
Immediately, Heaven-Devouring planned to swallow Gluttony and learned from the Devil Primogenitor’s Dao. He even planned to hunt the other devils to fuse the Dao and manifest the genuine Seven Sin Dao. With such a unique Dao, he can benefit whether he learns from it or uses it as a sub-Dao. He only needed to deal with the restraint of the rules and hiding under Wang Wei’s nose.
After the fall of Heavenly Dao, he thought an opportunity presented itself. However, it did not take long for numerous people to attack him until he was in this sorry state.
As he watched his puppet body fall apart, he was incomparably calm.
‘It’s fine if I fail this time. After I revive, I can still get my hands on that unique Dao. Before that, let’s make some preparation in the Nine Devil God World.’
Mo Xingyun looked at these people.
Boom!
He blew himself up, killing many people with him. He would not leave anything for these people.
