Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperorchapter 499: new fleshly body

In a secret realm, Wang Wei looked at a green pool in front of him; he could sense the terrifying energy inside. Wang Wucheng–who was next to him–waved his hand to manifest four spiritual materials.

"Just like you did with the Supreme Materials, you have to find the Dao Rhymes of these Innate Treasures before absorbing them. Alright, are you ready?"

Wang Wei nodded his head before his Primordial Spirit jumped into the pool, sat cross-legged, and finally closed his eyes. He regenerated a new body in a few seconds, but it was weak, similar to the ones before he began cultivating the [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scripture].

As he absorbed more energy from the pool, Wang Wei could feel his skin rapidly temper the level before he blew his body. His soul contained an aura that contained information regarding his previous fleshly body and accelerated the process of returning to its peak.

So, in a short time, his skin returned to its peak state, so Wang Wei focused on finding the Dao Rhymes of the innate treasure called Innate Steel, an ore perfectly suited to create defensive artifacts.

A moment later, Wang Wei found the Dao Rhymes before fusing the ore to his skin, temporarily turning it metallic gray.

'This kid's comprehension is truly scary,' thought Wang Wucheng as he looked at the process. Meanwhile, Wang Wei did not waste time and focused on his muscles next.

He repeated the same process, and this time, the innate material he used was the muscles of a Two-Wings Snake, an Innate Demon known for their strong, durable, and flexible muscles.

In ancient times, human Emperors who cultivated Archery Dao liked to hunt these creatures to refine the string of their bows.

For his bones, Wang Wei chose a small piece of the Dragon Bones he acquired from Liu Meishu; this move also prepares for the future when he cultivates the [Fiengod Body 12 Revolution]. Additionally, the dragon bone made up for his loss of the Devil God Bone.

When it comes to his [Five Internal Organs], he did not have to worry about innate materials since he saved them in his soul. However, he did receive a Chaos Spiritual Material from Wang Wucheng: a Chaos Flame.

After absorbing it into his heart, he felt his Chaos Flame evolve into something better; it was like he finally added the last missing piece required to complete it.

For his blood, Wang Wei absorbed a Vitality Crystal refined from a Tier 10 Blood Race that Wang Wucheng killed during the previous World Collision. Because the blood race absorbed blood to cultivate, they have an abnormal amount of vitality or life energy inside their bodies.

So, Wang Wei used it to retemper his blood and elevate its power to a high level. Finally, Wang Wei opened his Star Acupoints again and nourished them. He still had enough Star Essence from his exchange with Zhen Buyi, and he retrieved some of it from Zhen Chao's Cave Heaven after the explosion.

Finally, with the pool's energy, he condensed 500 black holes inside his Acupoints before forming the Blood Energy Channel he learned from Zhen Chao's martial system.

In the pool, Wang Wei admired his perfect naked body with an 8-pack. He clenched his hand to feel the strength in his body.

"25,000 Dragon Elephant Force," he muttered. 1 Dragon Elephant Force equaled the power to destroy 1000 Middle Thousand Worlds, which typically were the size of a galaxy. So, he could now destroy 25 million galaxies with one punch.

And that is not taken into account that Middle Thousand Worlds are larger on average than the galaxies from Earth and have their own natural protective force and ability to repair the damage done to them.

Wang Wei sighed as he felt he was not remotely close to opening the gate he saw in the True Dao Power Realm. What's more, he was still in the second layer and did not even know how many there were.

So, after secretly shaking his head, he focused on his cultivation. In the process of recondensing his fleshly power, he also re-cultivated. As Wang Wei watched the Law Altar, Law Seed, and checked his Divine Sea, he felt his foundation was slightly better than usual.

And he knew one of the main reasons for that is because he used his [Transcending Fate Sutra] from the beginning, instead of using the Origin Scripture and switching midway.

Additionally, his body was now free from the rough tempering process and all the tear and wears from the life and death battles he had. Many of the previously profound and unremovable hidden dangers were now gone.

His body was brand new, refreshed, and perfect. So, he took a black martial robe and boots from his space ring and wore them. He previously blew up his Sacred Son's robe, so he decided to change his outfit.

A mirror appeared in front of him, and he admired his handsome self for a while.

"Ancestor, I want to fight an Immortal Venerable."

Wang Wucheng frowned for a moment before giving him a sneering look.

"Very well. Follow me."

So, he took Wang Wei to another small world where an older man dressed in all green was cultivating.

"What is it?"

"Li Wen, I need you to teach this youngster the power of Immortal," said Wang Wucheng.

"Are you sure?"

"He can handle it. However, to be sure, only use 1 Leaf."

Li Wen then looked at Wang Wei, who immediately bowed: "Disciple Wang Wei has seen the Ancestor."

"Interesting," said Li Wen as he could see the fighting intent in this kid's eyes despite his respect. "Alright, you can attack first. It's best to use your strongest attack."

"As you wish."

Wang Wei immediately transforms into his Ancient Desolate God Form, which is now completely different. The upper torso of his clothes disappeared, and his skin turned red with star-like lines on his chest and waist.

His hand turned black with claws on each finger. He had two dragon horns, his eyes turned completely dark, and he grew to a size of five meters from two meters. Along with his flowing silver hair, he looked like a Primordial God incarnate.

Additionally, this form can double his strength and boost his defense, stamina, and other physical stats by a few factors.

Wang Wei clenched his fist as he mobilized the Fate Law inside his body and even borrowed power from Zhen Chao's True World to bless himself. Then, he punched:

[Fate Annihilation Fist]

The surrounding space in the secret realm turned grey as the power of Fate became turbulent, causing chaos and destruction. Additionally, the pure physical force that could destroy millions of worlds exponentially made things worse.

Meanwhile, Li Wen calmly looked at everything, and without even standing from his meditation pose, he waved his hand. Then, a bright red dragon made of flame manifested.

In an instant, the dragon burned the Fate power in the surrounding along with the physical force behind the attack, and it did it without any effort. Then, it proceeded to attack Wang Wei.

Boom!

Wang Wei lay on the ground with the lower part of his torso missing. His red skin was black while giving a burnout smell.

"Not bad, kid. I originally intended to burn everything except your head," said Li Wen. However, Wang Wei could only smile wryly and did not say anything; not that he could since the dragon burned his throat.

As he tried to heal, he could sense a terrifying energy inside his body preventing him from healing.

'Is this Immortal Qi?' he thought as he tried to use his Duyi Realm to remove the energy in his body. It did work. However, according to a brief calculation, he might spend a few hundred thousand years before removing a small bit.

So, he could only look at Li Wen with puppy eyes before the latter removed his power. Then, Wang Wei used the power of time to revert himself to his previous peak state.

"Now, do you understand?" asked Wang Wucheng.

"Is the gap so vast?"

"More than you can imagine. There are classifications between Immortal Venerables, and Li Wen used the weakest power."

"Can you elaborate further?"

"Immortal Qi has a purity level. Based on a Quasi-Emperor Realm's fleshly body, Spiritual Strenght, Soul Quality, Divine Sea, control of energy, understanding of Law, and many other factors, they can refine different purity of energy.

"So, Immortal Venerables are classified based on the purity of their Immortal Qi: 1 to 3 Leaves are low class, 3-6 Leaves are middle class, and 7-9 Leaves are high class."

"So, it's based on a person's foundation in the Quasi-Emperor Realm," commented Wang Wei. "So, how is the difference in strength between each class?"

"Li Wen just used the weakest 1 Leaf power to defeat you. Meanwhile, 9 Leaf Immortal Venerables can fight some Dao Ancestors."

"So, is the power of high-level energy so magical?"

"Indeed. Some Immortal Venerables are lucky enough to refine Primordial Chaos Qi, Primordial Star Essence, Dao Qi, or other extremely rare energy, turning them into Insurgent Heaven Chosen capable of fighting Great Emperors."

"It seems like people underestimate the Immortal Path," commented Wang Wei.

"More than you can imagine," added Li Wen.

"How so?" asked Wang Wei, who wanted to know more.

"Not everyone is suited to become Dao Ancestors. Just like cultivators need to have a certain Dao Heart, state of mind, and Willpower to control the Grand Dao Source, the same applies to Dao Ancestors.

"And their situation is even worse. With the Heaven Will as protection, cultivators can become Pseudo-Emperors if they do not meet the requirement. However, Dao Ancestors will die instead."

"It's that dangerous?"

"Yes. So, before someone can refine the Dao Source Seed, most Emperors will test whether a person is qualified. If not, it's best for them not to waste such precious resources."

"What about Immortal Venerables? Is there any need for a test?"

"That's the advantage of this path; the threshold is much lower," replied Li Wen.

"We should mention that some people are more suited for one path than another," added Wang Wucheng.

"What do you mean?"

"Some people might pass the requirement for the Dao Path; However, they fit better with the Immortal Path. These people usually have a higher chance of refining high purity Immortal Qi, or other more powerful energy."

"Why do I feel like there is a bigger secret behind the Immortal Path?"
