Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 1191 [Prestigious Generation]

Chapter 1191 [Prestigious Generation]

1191 [Prestigious Generation]
Everybody turned to the sky to see the Eye of Grand Dao manifesting. Puzzled by its appearance, they wondered whether something important had happened. After all, this banquet did not seem important enough for it to appear physically - unless you count the appearance of Lord Paragon.
"I now grant," a booming voice echoed throughout the lower dimension. The voice was powerful, cold, and noble, but that was not what shocked everybody. These cultivators never knew True Heavenly Dao was capable of speaking. Manifesting was one thing, but speaking was another.
Even Wang Wei was slightly surprised. He knew True Heavenly Dao could speak, but it was extremely rare. It only happened once in her lifetime. So, he immediately guessed what was going to happen.
"This generation, the title of [Prestigious]," the voice continued. "All Heaven and Earth will now celebrate." Visions that covered the Endless Void manifested from the Myriad Emperor World before spreading. The effect of this title immediately started with people like Li Jun, Yan Liling, Yu Yan, Xu Shi, Feng Heng, Huo Fenghuang, Ao Shen, Tong Ruobing, Mu Lei, Ji Lanfang, Ye Dafu, Shi Qian, the Demon Suppressing Emperor, the Barbarian Twins, Xi Shangyan, Hong Meilin, Wrath, Dong Lifen, and Wang Tian.
Their multicolored Qi Luck Dragon manifested above their heads before half of it rapidly turned white. Before this banquet, they might not have known what this meant, but it was different now: [Empyrean Tier Luck]. The title gave them the luck level of an Empyrean, making their path to Tier 11 less challenging.
'True Heavenly Dao seems very generous,' Wang Wei thought, feeling some people should not be on this list. However, after thinking about it, there might be a reason; they made sense somehow.
Shi Qian revived the Light Race in this era. The Demon Suppressing Emperor was the first Human Emperor of this generation. The Barbarian Twins - despite choosing the wrong side of history - created a new and unique branch of history. So, they do deserve their blessing.
Once these changes ended, a few lights descended from the sky to five people: Hong Meiling, Yu Yan, Wang Tian, Dong Lifen, and Feng Heng. All these people were then granted a Longevity Resource or extra life.
'So, the people who contributed the most to sealing that Eldritch Abomination? I hope Wang Ju gets her reward in her next life,' Wang Wei thought.
Once these people were rewarded, the title's effect focused on the rest of the Emperors and Immortals of that era. True Heavenly Dao was very generous in its reward. Most of these people received some luck blessing, followed by physical rewards. For example, rare pills, weapons, talismans, information about fortunate encounters, and even a small amount of merit.
Meanwhile, Liang Shixiang - the founder of the God Path - had his Qi Luck Dragon turned silver, indicating his path to Tier 11 was also more worry-free than others. Wang Wei secretly shook his head. This man would have had a bright future had he walked both the Soul and Emperor Path - which Heavenly Dao would have allowed as the founder of that path. Sadly, his aversion to the Emperor was ingrained in his soul, thus limiting his future prospects. Well, at least, to Wang Wei's eyes.
Su Ya watched everything with gritted teeth. Everyone received a small blessing, even the mortals or people who were not born in this era. It seems the requirements were for anyone who participated in this era in some way or another.
'Did I make the wrong choice?' She asked herself. Watching her peers advance further than her was already hard enough. But now, she saw how much Heavenly Dao loved this generation and generously blessed them, paving their future path. Su Ya turned her head to glance at the mortal who received the greatest blessing - Cai Song.
Her jealousy suddenly intensified. Su Ya understood why the title affected her on such a large scale. After all, Cai Song was to the Puppet Dao community what Yan Liling and Tong Ruobing were to Alchemy and Talisman. The only exception was how introverted she was, thus reducing her presence and making her accomplishments appear less impressive.
In fact, her accomplishments could be argued to be even more impressive because Puppet Dao is weak and underdeveloped, and she was rapidly pushing it to higher heights.
'Calm down,' Su Ya reminded herself as she slowly controlled her emotions. 'Since you've chosen that path, there is no need to hesitate or have regrets.' She only needs to wait for the generation after Wang Tian to prove the Dao and rule over the court before ascending. This won't take long, meaning she still has a chance to catch up and show her presence in the upper dimension's stage.
Besides Su Ya, Wang Wei was also checking out Cai Song as her blessing was the most unique. From his deduction, hers was conditional. After proving the Dao, she can also receive Empyrean Luck if she develops Puppet Dao sufficiently. If not, her blessing will just be an ordinary one.
'Has Grand Dao noticed Cai Song's importance and is also scheming for her?' Wang Wei thought, feeling suspicious. Cai Song can potentially become the cultivator world's version of Skynet - mass manufacturing Paragon Tier Puppets and becoming his war assembly.
'Maybe I should prepare for the possibility of her changing side,' Wang Wei thought. If Cai Song somehow ended up on Grand Dao's side, it might be catastrophic for him.
'Replacing her is one solution, but an even better one would be an idea or concept on par with her potential. So, what can rival Skynet in terms of War Potential?' Wang Wei immediately had an answer:
'Zerg Hivemind. If I can make the cultivation version of that thing, I will be unstoppable - especially if Cai Song remains by my side,' Wang Wei thought before hiding this idea in the deepest crevice of his soul. He won't entertain these thoughts again until he's taken a few steps into the Transcendence Realm.
After True Heavenly Dao rewarded everybody, it was finally time for the main event - Wang Wei. He's the man single-handled responsible for pushing this generation to such height. It was unimportant whether he did it purposely or unconsciously due to his actions and presence.
A golden light enveloped Wang Wei, and the title gave him three blessings or gifts. Firstly, it gave him a pill called the Dragon-Phoenix Rising Pill with the effect of raising his cultivation by one layer without any negative consequences. Wang Wei immediately decided to take it once he reached the ninth level of the Dragon-Phoenix Realm.
The second blessing was to elevate his one life from his accomplishment as a Mortal Emperor to rank 3, meaning that even after becoming a Paragon, this life is still useful. Wang Wei was surprised and grateful for this gift. He was about to become an Empyrean, and his extra lives would soon become useless unless he updated them, which is not an easy feat as the higher the realm, the more strict True Heavenly Dao is about extra lives.
The last gift Wang Wei received was extra time to contemplate on his [True Self] when he's breaking into the next realm. Wang Wei was pleased with this reward despite not needing it since he could use the extra time to see if he could tap into the mystery needed to become a Boundless Paragon.
'It seems that I don't have to worry much about my relationship with True Heavenly Dao,' Wang Wei concluded. After what happened with the Death World, he's been suspicious of anything related to Grand Dao. He has reduced his suspicions to the lowest but is still on guard. After all, it's still possible the latter was trying to get him to lower his guard.
After Wang Wei's blessing, the Eye of Heavenly Dao dissipated from sight, but the visions continued for a few more minutes, leaving everyone to their thought. Wang Wei was thinking about the only other time True Heavenly Dao spoke, and it was when it granted his ancestor's generation in the upper dimension the title of the [Golden Generation], which is leagues ahead of this [Prestigious Generation] title.
'Have you noticed?' Tong Ruobing asked.
'What?' Mu Lei responded.
'He didn't receive any luck blessing.'
'So?' Then, it suddenly dawned on him. 'Are you implying it's because he didn't need it?'
'Not just that,' Tong Ruobing added. 'It would make sense to give him some luck even if it's already on par with an Empyrean since that would help with the next realm, but nothing. So, that can only mean two things: True Heavenly Dao doesn't want to reward him with luck for whatever reason, or -'
'He still doesn't need it even for the Paragon Realm,' Mu Lei finished her sentence, immediately quieting afterward.
'It's frustrating, isn't it?' Tong Ruobing sighed. 'We know he's better than us, but our pride will not allow us to give up without a fight. But with each passing day, each new achievement, and each new piece of information revealed about him - it becomes increasingly more difficult to keep that competitive spirit.'
Mu Lei held her hands for support since that was the only thing he could do. He talked to her about this many times, but she refused to abandon that "competitive spirit," so she could only suffer in silence since that's her chosen path. Well, not in silence since he will be with her.
