Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor-Chapter 1087 Reminisce

1087 Reminisce

Limbo, the place between life and death, between existence and nonexistence, where space and time have no meaning: The Human Emperor sensed something in the world of the living, so his consciousness was activated.

'All three positions appeared in the Lower Dimension? Even the Earth Emperor Position?' In his plan, the Earth's Position was the most difficult because of those damn Yama. That's why he's been trying to find a way around through the Earth Emperor- one of the seven moons.

'This was not part of my calculations,' he thought. He suddenly had the urge to check into the world of the living. However, a few reasons prevented him from doing so. He did not dare show up due to how Supreme Unity felt about everyone else in Limbo, and he also sensed the blockage of the lower dimension. So, he could not access the lower dimension unless he could contact Maitreya and become indebted to her.

'This might not be a bad thing,' thought the Human Emperor. 'Ultimately, Liu Ren (Earth Emperor's name) is a fake, and I will need the essence of the real Earth Emperor for my plan. Maybe my pawn in the lower dimension will be the key.'

After making a decision, he sent a message to the Great Qin Saint Court so they could prepare for his return and gather information for him.

Eternal Ascension World, Primordial Chaos:

A pale green flame surrounded the Earth Emperor's body, holding off a colossal humanoid creature with black skin, four spider legs from his spine, and fangs. The creature kept punching him with all six limbs, and the Earth Flame used the flame to block. His face was pale, and he was sweating profusely.

The Earth Emperor suddenly sensed something, which caused him to pause his action. The Fiendgod took this opportunity to blow his head off, but he reacted in time as a bone helmet appeared on his face.

'Why are you distracted?' yelled the Time Eater in his mind, but Earth Emperor did not explain; he sensed something very important to him had happened in the world, but he could not deduce any more information while in this forsaken place.

'Are you listening?'

'Shut up,' yelled the Earth Emperor.

'You!'

'We're holding on because you said you had a plan. How long do we have to wait?'

'Just a little bit more?'

'Heaven knows how long you've been saying the same thing,' countered the Earth Emperor.

'It hasn't been that long,' rebutted Time Eater. 'But even if it was, what other choices do you have? If not for me, all of you would have been dead by now.'

Earth Emperor gritted his teeth, but he must admit it was true. Regardless, this did not change his frustration, so he snorted coldly while focusing on this battle. He wanted nothing more than to return to his dynasty and use whatever means possible to know what changes had occurred.

However, before they could buy themselves some breathing room, he could not reveal the truth to prevent any of these people from messing with his plans and benefits.

Prehistoric World:

Hongjun sensed something and opened his eyes. He turned to look in the distance and muttered, "Has Ying Zheng's chance of becoming transcendent increased? It seems things are proceeding smoother than I anticipated."

He then frowned, "These two might become enemies over nothing." His experience has told him that these people from Earth do not like having the same kind in the same world. It's okay if they meet from different worlds and become close, but once they know someone is in the same place as them, their first instinct is to eradicate the other.

'The kid seems more rational, and Ying Zheng was never influenced by modern media, so they should be fine,' concluded Hongjun before looking at the world.

'Laojun is about to become a Paragon? That's something.' Hongjun could not help but sigh. The Prehistoric world was flawed, resulting in the Saint System and other cultivation systems from other pantheons. After knowing the possible consequences, Hongjun encouraged the Saints to send clones to reincarnate in other Source Chaos Worlds and walk the Emperor Path.

Unfortunately, Grand Dao disdained anyone from this world and ensured all the clones suffered terrible fates. Only after countless trials, tribulations, and planning from Hongjun, did the Saints finally cultivate a clone that proved the Dao and returned to the Prehistoric World.

Of course, things would not be so simple even after such a victory. They then discovered that comprehending the Grand Dao Source in the Prehistoric World was a thousand times harder than in any other world. As such, after so long, only the clone of his first and most talented disciple, Taishang Laojun, succeeded in becoming a Paragon. Meanwhile, the others are either Empyreans or still Emperors.

'This world's hope has always been those young ones I sent out,' thought Hongjun. 'Now that the plan is proceeding smoothly, it's time to discuss it with Yahweh and Anansi.'

Myriad Emperor World:

Wang Wei detected a significant fluctuation from the Nether Hell.

'Did you detect the Earth Emperor Position and go crazy?' he thought while sneering. With a wave of his hand, he reinforced the seal, ensuring Old Man Nether had no chance to escape.

"Let's go have a drink," said Wang Wei.

"Not a bad idea."

"How about we go to the Spirit Road Trial?" Yan Liling suggested, and the others nodded. Although they had met before in the sect, the Spirit Road Trial was where they became a dynamic trio-they became brothers and sisters.

They teleported to this secret realm, and as soon as they landed, Wang Wei took out his secret stash.

"That's what I'm talking about," said Li Jun after taking a small sip.

"This place has so many core memories for me," said Wang Wei. "I met three people I will never forget."

"Oh, who?"

"The first one was the pampered girl I killed. She's probably the first innocent life I took," said Wang Wei.

"I remembered you mentioned her; what happened to her family? Given how they loved her, they should have tried to find out who killed her."

"A rival family wiped them out after spending too much money on finding out who killed their daughter, leaving them weak," explained Wang Wei.

"That's a shame," said Li Jun; the cultivation path was ruthless, especially the Emperor Path. "What about the other two?"

"The second one was a gladiator from which I learned an evading technique. He taught me how unfair life and fate was," said Wang Wei. His technique [Fate is Unfair] was inspired by his encounter with the gladiator, and it was instrumental in winning against Di Tian and proving the Dao.

"The third one was Ji Song; he was my first real opponent."

"Ji Song was a waste of potential," commented Yan Liling. "Had he lived, he would have prospered in this generation."

"Did you ever regret killing him?" asked Li Jun.

"No. If he had kept his word, he would have been alive," replied Wang Wei calmly. If Ji Song had survived until the Heaven Will Battle, he would have spared him so he could have trafficked him to the upper dimension for more resources.

"I regret falling for such a simple scheme, now looking back."

"That's fair."

"So, what about you guys? What significance does this place have for you- besides having your Dao Companion Ceremony here?"

"Isn't it obvious? I found the love of my life," replied Li Jun with a bright grin.

"I found hope and peace," said Yan Liling.

"Oh?"

"As you know, living in the secret realm is not a fun experience. We all lived our lives knowing we were backup or stand-ins for the main branch," explained Yan Liling. "If not for the elder's strictness, many of us would have lived a hopeless life without purpose."

She sighed as she remembered her childhood, "I was excited when I was finally chosen to be the next head of the Yan Family. However, that happiness did not last long when my aunt told me my first mission: seduce you and become your main wife."

Wang Wei smiled in embarrassment despite not having any control of such a thing.

"Meeting and falling in love with Jun'er gave me a sense of freedom, a sense that I could make my own choice, and that brought me great peace."

Yan Liling swallowed a large cup. "Although I never said it, I'm glad you supported our relationship and never made me feel guilty for my former selfish motives."

"Why should I?" replied Wang Wei. "I knew you genuinely loved him and how the political landscape of the sect operated."

"This is a celebration, so let's talk about something positive. Do you remember the time when you fell into a pile of Iron Boar's manure?" said Li Jun.

"Don't talk nonsense and sully my name," said Wang Wei swiftly.

"Now, I want to hear this," added Yan Liling.

"Don't listen to him; he's lying."

"We were seven, and he was in a bad mood because his grandma canceled a visit and complained to me while we were walking in the back of the mountain. He did not notice and felt right into it," explained Wang Wei.

"Wait, now that you brought it up, I remember feeling a slight push from the back," said Wang Wei. "Did you push me?"

"Now, whose sullying whose name?"

"Bitch, I can see the past and present. Do you want me to show you the proof?"

"You can also fabricate the truth," countered Li Jun. "So, no matter what you say and do, I'll only say it's slander."

Wang Wei sneered, "You're talking as if I need proof to get my revenge."

"Hey now, don't do anything stupid."

"You better sleep with one eye open."

"Come on, it's been hundreds of thousands of years."

"It's never too late to get revenge, even after millions of Yuan Epochs," sneered Wang Wei.

"How can you be so petty and small-minded? Oh, mighty and handsome Heavenly Emperor, spare this humble human."

"Don't you know me well enough after so long?"

"Fine," said Li Jun with gritted teeth. "You want to do this? I won't mind spreading all your embarrassing moments from childhood. I want the world to know what you truly were like."

"Two can play at this game."

Yan Liling chuckled as she watched them bicker. She used to be jealous of their banter in the past, but now, she has grown to enjoy them and be present in the moment.
