Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

637 Saint's Preaching



After his tribulation, he felt like a weight had been lifted from his shoulder. It was now smoother to control his law and Domain. It was as if a veil or restrictions was removed from his body. As a result, it was easier for him to access the laws of Heaven and Earth and comprehend them.

Wang Wei knew the reason for this change. Although he was previously a Saint, Heaven and Earth did not acknowledge his realm since he did not undergo tribulation. The weight and veil he sensed was his incongruity with the world.

‘Should I preach?’ he thought. One of the reasons the Saint Realm is named as such is because every True Person can preach their Dao to a large group of people. And in return, Heavenly Dao will grant them a small amount of merit.

In Ancient Emperor Era, Saint Realm cultivators would travel to the Lower Realm and preach in Small, Middle, and even Great Thousand Worlds to receive merit. Unfortunately, as time passed, these places’ cultivation civilization has been set, making it pointless to do so in modern times.

The only time cultivators in modern times used this method was when they discovered a brand new world. A world that does not have a cultivation civilization for some reason, or one that was just born and is relatively new.

Unfortunately, these worlds are rarer to find. Even with Wang Wei’s Soul Flower Ability, he might not find one since they might not exist at the current moment.

‘Although I don’t need the small amount of merit, it’s better than nothing.’

He contacted the elders to announce he would preach to the sect’s disciples. He thought this would be a simple thing that took a few days. But the event quickly escalated.

The elders wanted this event to be more significant. They wanted disciples, elders, deacons, and foreign guests–people affiliated with the sect but not directly part of it–to listen. It would take some time to gather these people.

One elder mentioned that the sect would recruit another group of new disciples a few months from now and let them listen as well to benefit the sect.

Another one suggested allowing the disciples from the Lower Realm to participate. The new branches the sect opened in the Lower Realm needed a way to increase these people’s loyalty to the sect. And listening to a potential future Eternal Emperor preach would do wonders for this issue.

The Myriad Emperor World was semi-closed, so the Lower Realm disciples could not come here. But, the sect decided to use an Image Transmission Array to broadcast the event.

Wang Wei was speechless the entire time. He did not expect things to escalate to this level. After the elders planned everything, Li Jun and Yan Lililing would also preach before him, turning this into an event. Tie Gang was on the list–unfortunately, he was now in retreat to enter the Saint Realm.

A few months later, Wang Wei oversaw the Disciple Recruit. The sect divided the tester into two groups: the one with cultivation and the one without. Regarding cultivators, no one above the Divine Altar would be accepted since that’s the realm where it is not too expensive to recast the foundation.

There used to be an age limit, but Wang Wei removed it to ensure the sect could find some late bloomers with undetected talents. As such, people from as young as 14 to Divine Altair Cultivators close to the 1000-year limit attended this process.

The sect then used a variety of criteria to test these people. They tested for their talent–including professions, soul, physique, understanding, Qi Manipulation Talent, luck, Willpower, and Dao Heart. The Pagoda was useful for the last part.

And this was not the end. The sect checked the background of these people to ensure no problem. They checked their Fate Line to see if they had some unique destiny. They checked their Karma to see if they had some Karmic Connection that would be favorable to their cultivation or detrimental to them and the sect.

Because of this unique and comprehensive method, some accepted individuals appeared to make no sense. Some people were nothing but Mortals that did not even have Leakless Bodies. They only wanted to take a chance at changing their lives.

And since travel had become more accessible because of the constructs, they came to give it a chance.

Although these choices appeared nonsensical, only the sects knew these people could compete with some destiny, allowing them to have their legends in the cultivation. That destiny might be as simple as an inheritance. Usually, these people would never have a chance to fulfill their destiny. But with the sect’s support, they were now the prime candidates. 

The advantages of this recruiting method were endless, and it was only possible because of Wang Wei’s Destiny and Fate Dao.

Once everything finished, two participants stood out amongst the rest. A girl named Cai Song and she was a member of the Spirit Race. She is a child’s toy who became sentient after being stuck in a high Spirit Qi environment. 

After learning about the world, Cai Song had recently acquired her physical body and was on her way to Myriad Spirit Mountain. On her way, she heard about the sect’s recruit and had a whim to come test. The sect discovered she had an extraordinary cultivation talent and a monster-level talent for puppets. She was on par with Yan Liling in her professions–if not even more talented.

The second one was Jin Mengyao, the owner of the 25th physique, Spear Overlord Physique. 

“Sect Master, what do you think of these two?” asked one of the elders through Divine Sense.

“Cao Song is quiet, introverted, and does not fear loneliness: perfect traits for professions that require years of study. However, we also have to train her social skills. Puppets can be vital for our plans if used correctly, so her skills can be helpful.

“As for Jin Mengyao, besides his arrogance, he is indeed talented. However, we must see how he grows.”

Wang Wei can read Jin Mengyao like the back of his hand. He could tell this guy was planning on using the sect’s resources to catch up to this generation’s Heaven Choses. Then, defeat him to become the sect’s leader before proving the Dao and becoming an Eternal Emperor.

‘The arrogance and ambitions of young people,’ thought Wang Wei.

“These two are potential Emperors. Based on their performance, they can become the sect’s Seal Heaven Chosen. One of them might participate in the generation after my father,” he added.

A few people thought the same things and waited to bring it off. With the Karma Washing Pool that Wang Wei brought for the sect, they will not have to worry about future Emperors. Even if one of these two failed their Heaven Will Battle, the sect could wait for a generation with less competition and bring them out. They don’t have to seal themselves for millions of years.

After the sect’s recruitment, it was time for the preaching events. Li Jun went first. Most people gathered on the sect’s largest mountain, sitting cross-legged on cushions. The rest stayed in other mountains and watched things through formations. And it was the same for the branches in the Lower Realm.

Li Jun sat cross-legged, floating in the air and overlooking everyone.

“I am True Person Li Jun, and today, I will enlighten you in the Ways of Battle.” His voice was soft, but everyone could hear him; it was as if he was muttering next to their ears. Even the people who listened through formations felt the same way. 

Visions of lotus manifested near him, along with beautiful sounds representing the voice of the Dao, the voice of truth.

Li Jun then talked about “battle” as if it was a Dao. He also injected some of his Law understanding for the Void Shattering Realm and above individuals. The preaching lasted three months.

And once he finished, everyone had one thought in their mind: this man made battle–a brutal and cruel thing–into an art. And they wanted more.

Everyone benefited. Many of the new disciples were malnourished mortals who knew nothing about cultivation. The sect had to provide Spirit Qi and pills for them to listen for the entire three months. But even they benefitted.

Li Jun’s explanation of how to use the mortal body to exert the most power in battle, how to analyze the opponent and how to maximize the use of the environment targeted them. Furthermore, even if they could not understand most of the things he said, it would benefit them in the future as long as they remember some things and apply them in their lives.

Golden lights came from Heaven, and he received his merit. Next was Yan Liling’s turn; her process was similar to Li Jun’s. She preached about all five professions, focusing on establishing a foundation for most profession-oriented people listening. Even Wang Wei learned something from her.

As for the non-professions, they also benefited since she also talked about Flame, Energy, and Spiritual Power Control. 

After taking her merit, it was Wang Wei’s turn.

“I am Wang Wei, a True Person, and your sect master,” said Wang Wei with a pleasing voice. “And today, I will enlighten you on the essence of cultivation.”

He let his words simmer for a few seconds.

“In the Endless Void, there are countless cultivation systems–good or bad. But at their core, they involved four fundamental aspects: Essence, Qi, Spirit, and Law. Even if there are some outlier systems, one of these four will be involved in one way or the other. Now, Let’s begin with [Essence] or the body…

“Next is Qi or energy, the source of life and evolution…

“Third is the Spirit, or the soul, mind, or spirit…

“Finally, it’s the law–the fundamental concepts that govern realities….”

The process lasted three years. And once everybody woke up, they did not know how to describe this experience and remained quiet for a few seconds.
