Chapter 1006 Taste of the Realm (I)

1006 Taste of the Realm (I)

For a moment, Wang Wei ignored Old Man Nether's words and focused on himself. He saw a few bruises on his body that refused to heal; to be precise, they healed exceptionally slowly. He knew it was not the power of Dao Will or Willpower Manifestation.

'Existence Hierarchy?' he thought. This was not the first time he dealt with this thing but only recently that he knew its universal term. Once a Great Emperor or even other Immortal Tier creatures kill a mortal, that creature will have their [Existence] wiped, thus preventing others from using Life and Death Dao, Time Dao, or any other revival methods.

In the Empyrean Realm, cultivators will experience a second Grand Dao Source Baptism, thus sublimating their [Existence] for a second time; that's true even for regular Empyreans. The result of this change is another application of [Existence Hierarchy].

Old Man Nether's existence is higher than Wang Wei, so he can naturally injure him, similar to if he had used a Dao Will. Luckily, Wang Wei's strength is extremely close to the Empyrean Realm, so the injuries were not serious.

Wang Wei finally paid attention to the person present. It was a burly old man dressed in casual black clothes that looked very ordinary. He had long white hair and a white beard resembling a lion's mane.

The feeling this person gave Wang Wei was very odd. Usually, older cultivators will have a more wise or sage-like appearance. But Old Man Nether resembled his grandfather with a wild and unrestrained aura.

'He looked like the kind of person that gets agitated and offended for the smallest reason.'

"Boy, is your tongue tied? I asked you a question."

"I'm a little disappointed," suddenly said Wang Wei.

"Excuse you?"

"I've heard so many times how powerful you were and how much of a threat you pose. But..."

Wang Wei did not finish his word and only shook his head. However, Old Man Nether was already looking at him with furious eyes.

'He really gets offended at the slightest thing?'

thought Wang Wei. Sometimes, a person's aura is misleading. However, it seems this was not the case.

"Boy???"

"Your reaction has reduced even more points in my eyes???such poor performance for someone of your status." Wang Wei shook his head. After a brief analysis, he understood why the latter was like this.

His mentality has changed after spending so much time in the lower dimension, being invincible. Old Man Nether might have been even more arrogant if not for the seal placed on him.

"You're pushing your look."

"Did I say something wrong? Firstly, you're only an ordinary Empyrean. Secondly, you're still in the early stages after so many years. Thirdly, your goal is to control Samsara, but your main Dao is not Life, Death, or Samsara. Instead, it's some batched Dao that combines a few minor aspects of Samsara Dao. Tell me, how can I not be disappointed."

"Damn you," yelled Old Man Nether.

[Flame of Hell: Torturous Flame]

A dark green flame materialized in this empty Void Battlefield, and screams of immense agony emanated from it. Wang Wei's eyes lit up as his first instinct was to absorb this flame and evolve his Pain Innate Talent to a higher level. Sadly, he saw the future, and a terrible fate awaited him if he tried this tactic.

[Death Flame]

A jet-black flame materialized out of Wang Wei's body and confronted the green flame. However, his attack did not last a second before being corroded. The green flame enveloped him and rapidly incinerated his body and soul.

'Did he want me to suffer?' thought Wang Wei before vanishing. He could feel a terrifying pain as the flame did its job. However, he was one of the best body refiners in the world???a job that only masochists can partake in. So, such an attack was useless to him.

He did not focus too much on such a small matter as Wang Wei had discovered something: his Samsara Dao was severely hindered. He noticed the anomaly in the first attack but confirmed it on the second.

So, Empyreans can hinder the operation of a Great Emperor's Grand Dao Source. And if their Daos are the same, the hindrance is even more severe, probably reaching the level of deprivation.'

Although Old Man Nether's Dao only had minor aspects of Samsara Dao, it was enough to render this aspect of Wang Wei's Dao useless. Of course, the main reason for that is Wang Wei's actual cultivation level is 32% Grand Dao Source, thus the severity of the suppression.
