Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

867 Clash of Dao (II)



(Unedited Chapter)

——-

The six paths of Reincarnation began to summon Wang Wei’s soul from different directions. The suction they released was so intense that he felt his Primordial Spirit was about to tear apart.

Furthermore, he could tell that if he entered any of these doors, his soul would be forcefully changed–just like the previous technique.

‘So, it’s an updated and better version of the previous technique,’ thought Wang Wei, who had conclusive evidence that Di Tian updated his Nine Samsara Fist.

Wang Wei’s Primordial Spirit resisted the summon or suction of these doors. It mobilized the power of Samsara and closed all the doors. Then, the Primordial Spirit left the fleshly body, floating above Di Tian, gazing at him.

An intense purple aura emanated from Wang Wei’s soul, making Di Tian’s heart skip a beat. He wanted to move and react; however, Wang Wei’s purple aura contained a sacred nobility that froze the surrounding space-time continuum, rendering his body immobile.

Di Tian even felt his mind was working slower than usual.

Wang Wei’s Primordial Spirit waved his hand, and chains dragged Di Tian’s Primordial Spirit out of his body. Then, like he was patting an annoying flying, he destroyed this Innate Emperor Soul.

Cracks appeared on Di Tian’s Primordial Spirit, but it was not annihilated as expected.

‘A Yin Spirit World?’ thought Wang Wei as he discovered Di Tian had an entire world made of soul and Yin Energy. When he attacked, he directed most of it to that world.

This was not the first time someone had used this tactic against him. So, he knew he needed to destroy that world as quickly as possible. With a snap of his finger, he eradicated the remaining half of the soul population that his first attack did not destroy.

Then, he proceeded to finish his task. Alas, Di Tian only needed some time to react. So, when the Primordial Spirit attacked him a second time, the Black Sea of Forgotten Memories and an Emperor Artifact made from Soul Grand Dao Source appeared to protect him.

‘Huh, a second Yin Spirit World?’ thought Wang Wei as his second attack did little to no damage. Then, he watched Di Tian’s Primordial Spirit become a wraith full of anger, hatred, and grievances.

It no longer resembled a pale phantom but a black creature with shadow-like smoke emanating from its body. It was now the combination of trillions of souls who died full of resentment after suffering incomprehensible pain during their lifetime.

The Wrathful Spirit roared, shaking Heaven and Earth. It rushed toward Wang Wei with red eyes.

‘A Suicide Attack?’ thought Wang Wei, but he did not react. His Primordial Spirit is one one the noblest things in existence, full of Yang Energy that made it impervious to misfortune, calamity, and evil.

So, Di Tian’s Primordial Spirit did not reach 20 meters near it before slowing down and slowly melting.

Boom!

A black smoke surrounded Wang Wei’s soul, shrouding the place he floated in the void. A few seconds later, the cloud dispersed, and Wang Wei’s intact Primordial Spirit appeared.

He looked at Di Tian’s body.

‘Trying to corrupt my soul? No, it was a distraction.’

His eyes could see a new Primordial Spirit was rapidly being formed in that body. The Primordial Spirit is one of the weaknesses of all cultivators, so protecting them is always their priority during battle.

And once destroyed, death is the only result. However, for people on DI Tian’s level, such a thing is not absolute.

Most Heaven Chosens have a way to instantly heal their Primordial Spirit in the midst of battles, maybe at a certain price. However, Di Tian completely abandons his soul after being injured by Wang Wei’s True Spirit.

Then, he used his own Soul Imprint and the reserve energy from the Yin Spirit World to regrow it from scratch. And this time, he used all the means he knew to protect his soul and Sea of Consciousness.

‘I knew his soul was terrifying, but I did not expect it to reach such a level,’ analyzed Di Tian. Only the people who faced the soul directly can know the horror of such power.

It was like facing a God that can easily decide the life and death of all living beings. As a cultivator, Di Tian never had any awe or respect for any God-like mortals. 

In his life, he has killed many creatures who can be considered gods, amongst which a few even called them that. In the eyes of mortals, powerful cultivators are walking Gods.

The closest thing he came to facing a god was when he faced Heavenly Dao.

However, as he grew more powerful and understood it better, Di Tian lost the awe it had. And with his current strength, he can almost sit on equal ground with Heavenly Dao.

However, today, he felt what mortals would describe as facing God.

Swish!

Wang Wei’s Primordial Spirit returned to his body, making him feel complete. He raised his hand to summon a projection of the River of Time.

[Time Acceleration]

Immediately, Di Tian’s body began to age, rapidly turning into an elderly with few remaining life span. His face changed:

‘Essence Manipulation?’ he thought with an ugly expression. Remembering some events from his first life.

Great Emperors are immortal with infinite lifespans; they do not age, become sick, become feeble with the passing of time, or worry about lifespan.

With such abilities, what will happen to a Time Grand Dao Source user? Can they age an Emperor forward to their death? The logical answer is they cannot and can only age them backward and weaken them.

However, most Great Emperors spend Yuan Epochs cultivating, so aging them backward is an arduous task.

(1 Yuan Epoch- 1.269 trillion years.)

With such limitations, Time Dao–as one of the Outlaw Dao–has become weak to the point of almost becoming useless. But that is far from the truth–it is one of the Outlaw Daos for a reason.

Great Emperors can be aged into death or even easily age backward to the point of returning to their mortal state. The reason is Time Dao can affect their [Existence] to a certain extent.

Although only Eternal Emperors cultivate their [Existence], all living beings have or are affected by their [Existence].

Cultivating is a process of improving the [Existence] and adding stuff with it. The first thing usually added to a mortal’s [Existence] is usually [Energy], slowly turning them into Energy Lifeform.

Then, the next thing added is [Concept], turning into Conceptual Lifeforms. Finally, after proving the Dao, they added [Immortal] and [Eternal] Essence to their Existence, turning into creatures that transcend time and death.

Meanwhile, Eternals added more stuff, are aware of their [Existence], and can actively cultivate it, unlike other creatures’ passive improvement. Another example would be creatures like Heavenly Dao, which have [Perfection Essence] in their existence.

As such, Time Dao cultivators can directly affect the Immortal Essence of Tier 10 Cultivators and allow time to affect them like they were mortals.

Not everyone can affect the Immortal Essence of Tier 10 Cultivators. However, Time Dao is an Outlaw, so people who can control it are usually extremely talented geniuses who have proved their worthiness.

So, people who used resonance to control Time Grand Dao Source or people who used foreign aids like artifacts might not be able to achieve such a feat.

As Di Tian experienced the changes in his body, he remembered the lesson on [Existence] and [Essences]. He had to watch a recording of the Time Emperor’s battle–an Eternal Emperor from another world.

The latter was a walking catastrophe. Wherever he passed by, these Innate Demon Gods, who were used to their infinite lifespan and believed the appearance of Acquired Life was why they were reduced to having a limit, rapidly aged into old and decrepit versions of themselves before scattering into sand-size particles between Heaven and Earth.

The Time Emperor was proof of how terrifying Outlaw Daos can be. And from the fact he still remembered the latter, Di Tian guessed he was still alive.

These things flashed in his mind in an instant. After achieving Ten Supremacy, he could better sense his [Essences] and knew he could be considered to have [Peak Mortal Essence] or [Half Immortal Essence].

He used his Samsara Dao, allowing his body to undergo a process of reincarnation. So, after his body reached old age, it immediately rejuvenated to his younger self, undergoing a reincarnation and recuperating his lost life span.

Di Tian controlled himself to ensure he did not reincarnate into a baby or a younger and weaker version of himself. And his caution was the appropriate response since he discovered Wang Wei’s Reincarnation Dao trying to interfere.

After rejuvenating to counter this technique, Di Tian knew it was not over yet, and the process might repeat itself. So, he surrounded himself with a bubble with his understanding of Time Dao derived from his Samsara Dao.

The Time Bubble protected and isolated him from the effect of the River of Time.
