Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1345

Chapter 1345 Terrible Solutions

"The situation is way worse than stated," Mongke commented. "The merit system has been locked despite Buddhism's efforts."

Wang Wei raised his eyes and looked at the sky. He could detect the slight fluctuations that indicate a struggle. Heavenly Dao wants to reward them for spreading the Mortal Civilization, but something is stopping it.

'Well, fighting is better than no response at all,' Wang Wei thought. Heavenly Dao was silent when the lock first appeared, which scared him and indicated it had lost most of its authority. However, it is now constantly fighting, which is a sign of strength.

"What happened to my cultivation technique?" Wang Wei asked. He previously spread the Health Preservation Technique, baffling him as to why the situation turned so sour in such a short period.

"It has been corrupted," Dulgun said. She was in charge of this matter, so she knew the most.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, it started with the spreading process. As you can imagine, these parasites intervened to block it," Dulgun explained. "We sent one of the Paragon puppets to try to scare them, but they replied with their own puppets.

"Of course, all of these were not the main reason your attempt became ineffective."

"What did that bastard do again?" Wang Wei asked, not hiding his sneer.

"The rules of Heaven and Earth were changed," Dulgun explained. "All Longevity Techniques have become more difficult to cultivate. People can only breakthrough when they are in the twilight of their years, and each breakthrough can increase their lifespan by 10,000 years."

Wang Wei's face was ugly to look at. Now, if an ordinary person used his technique, they would have to wait until they are 9000 years old before they can make a breakthrough and extend their lifespan. Since this technique allows people to live one yuan epoch —- 1.269 trillion years —- the technique was essentially divided into billions of layers—no wonder no one wants to cultivate it.

Wang Wei clenched his fists. He was feeling frustrated. The current situation feels like he's playing chess with someone, but while he has to play by the rules, the opponent not only does not, but he can also invent the rules to turn things in his favor.

Wang Wei exhaled to calm down. Being overly emotional will not help in the current situation. On the contrary, it will probably increase his chances of making a great mistake.

"You guys still haven't told me what your ideas to solve the situation is," Wang Wei said. After knowing the overall situation, he has some plans in mind. However, he wanted to see if they had something better or, at the very least, could inspire him.

"In the current situation, we may have to consider killing all the world's cultivators and saving the mortals," Mongke said. Wang Wei did not comment and just listened.

"That is too extreme," Jia Ping disagreed.

"Is it?" Mongke asked. "Most of the cultivators participating in the slaughter are loose cultivators or weak lineages who do not have access to longevity pills. I think it's a good exchange to eliminate these wastes to save the mortals."

The Barbarian King's words might sound harsh, but everybody understood his logic. The mortals are the future of the cultivation world; they are the primary sources of talent, so protecting them is protecting the future of the cultivation world.

"Our opponent's wish is for us to weaken the world, so why would we help him?" Jia Ping argued.

"That is true, but we are living in extreme times, so sacrifices are necessary," Mongke continued. "My thought is we ignore everything else to focus on dealing with the parasites. We must seal or kill them as quickly as possible. Then, without their interference, we'll have plenty of time to control the cultivators and eliminate all of them."

"Your plan is too far-fetched. We're dealing with Paragons. Even if they are at the bottom of the barrel regarding talents, they are still Paragons," Jia Ping argued. "The next yuan epoch will be crucial. Do you expect us to deal with all of them in such a short window?"

"It's indeed tricky, but with the right kind of brilliant plan, I think we can get all of them in the same place and into a trap."

Wang Wei did not comment, but he wanted to roll his eyes. He could tell that Mongke had become a little prideful after entering the Battle Taboo Realm; otherwise, he wouldn't suggest something so extreme or stupid. No matter how bad these parasites are, how can they be dealt with easily or quickly? How can it be easy to get all of them in the same place?
