Chapter 1008 Taste of the Realm (III)

1008 Taste of the Realm (III)

The pill that the Sword Empress gave him was truly magical. It did not increase his soul to the Empyrean level, thus achieving the level of strength. It did not increase the strength of his fleshly body or have some random powerful ability.

The pill was the complete packet. His soul temporarily reached that level, his fleshly body increased by at least 10 Infant Fiendgod Realm, and more importantly, his Grand Dao Source reached 70%.

The pill gave him the potential strength of the future. Wang Wei guessed this pill was precious and used by the upper dimension to allow certain people to taste the power of the advanced realm to prepare for a breakthrough.

Furthermore, it might also be used to test whether a person's Dao Heart has reached the standard of an Empyrean.

'However, I'm still not a true Empyrean,' thought Wang Wei before going on the offensive.

[Fate Annihilating Fist]

Old Man Nether's face underneath the flame changed as he felt the threat of death. Without hesitation, he responded.

[Wall of Wailing Soul]

Thousands of walls materialized before him, each made with trillions of souls full of karmic sins.

These souls replaced Old Man Nether and had their fate annihilated instead of him. With this method, he successfully blocked the attack, but his other tactic failed???transferring the sins of these people to his attacker.

Wang Wei secretly sneered at such a method. Old Man Nether'a Karma Dao application is the lowest level, focusing on basic things like good and evil.

So, how could he affect him?

[Karma Strangling]

As an Empyrean, how many lives has Old Man Nether killed? How many worlds has he influenced in the pursuit of his ambitions? How much cause and effect does he owe to the world?

Normally, he is a higher being in existence and does not have to worry about such a thing.

However, he was in deep trouble when confronting a being of the same level, a being that could turn his previous actions (causes) into tangible and practical attacks (effects].

Red strings appeared on his neck, hands, and lower limbs, binding and strangling him. Old Man Nether condensed a sword full of the power of Yin and Death Qi, trying to cut off the threads.

Sadly, his actions proved futile.

No, to be exact, his actions aggravated the power of the threads; in other words, the more he struggles, the more he has to bear the effects of his past actions.

"DAMN IT," he roared before his body spontaneously combusted into dark green flame before materializing a great distance away. Wang Wei frowned when he saw his thread not moving to his opponent. His eyes flashed with splendor as he instantly discovered the truth.

'Some type of death replacement,' he analyzed.

Old Man Nether chose one of his underlings to bear all his karma, essentially replacing him.

'However, that's not going to save you,' thought Wang Wei as the thread changed their target to the original owner; this time, they locked on his fate line. Old Man Nether's flaming face danced, probably indicating his mood.

[Light of the Pure and Noble]

A brilliant light manifested above the sky before condensing into two pairs of angelic wings. Old Man Nether had now changed into this weird aesthetic of evil and good, the devil and an angel, of light and darkness.

Wang Wei observed everything calmly. Unlike Christianity and other religions back on Earth, in Eastern Mythology, Hell is not only in charge of the wicked but also judges the good and pure heart. In other words, Hell is oftentimes depicted as a place that holds both Heaven and Hell based on these religions' standards, similar to Hades's Underworld, where Elysium is located for the people who were good during their lives.

Old Man Nether's technique is based on this. He gathered the position karma of trillions upon trillions of lives to bless him and wash away his karma, thus reducing the effect of the threads.

'Unfortunately, you're playing a game where you're out of your league.'
