Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1419

’Isn’t nothingness be considered perfect?’ Wang Wei asked himself. ’If there is nothing present — no matter, time, space, or concept — there is no flaw to have, so it could be argued that [nothingness] is also a perfect existence.’

Numerous thoughts flashed in his mind. Now that he has established a connection between the main power of his flesh and Xun Junyao’s, he can learn from her.

’One of the steps for the flesh to be sanctified is one immortal characteristic. I chose the power of nothingness, and I’ve been cultivating that characteristic since then. What if that characteristic is also the key for the body to achieve transcendence?

’If I can spread that characteristic through a decent part of my [Existence] similar to Xun Junyao’s perfection, I can eventually sublimate my body to a higher level. The highest level of [Nothingness] is True Nothingness, and once my body has this characteristic, it will officially sublimate to the realm of transcendence.’

A light of wisdom flashed in Wang Wei’s eyes.

’No, no, what I’m talking about is the transformation process — not a true method itself.’ If Wang Wei’s body ever achieved transcendence, then his [Existence] would change based on his thoughts. However, he still hasn’t considered a method to achieve said transformation.

’A direct manipulation of my [Existence] is not as simple as stated, especially when it involves transforming or evolving into a higher being. Xun Junyao’s perfection is innate, making it easier for her to manipulate, but even someone like her cannot just increase the perfection of her body and slowly evolve into a transcendent being.

’I need a concrete method — a step-by-step idea,’ Wang Wei thought. ’Let’s see. The body has three gates, and opening each one grants exceptional powers. The Third Gate, the Gate of Flesh, allows a cultivator to be on par with a Paragon. So, what if there were a fourth gate? Your next read is at freewebnovel

’No, it doesn’t matter whether the body has a third gate. The path of transcendence is about self-reliance, meaning I could still build a fourth gate even if there isn’t one.’

Wang Wei immediately entered a state of epiphany.

’What do I need to build the fourth gate — the Gate of Transcendence? First, I would need to push my flesh to the absolute limit of the third gate. Second, I would need to deeply understand the concept of [Essence] so I know how the gates are created and why they represent the potential of the human flesh.

’Finally, I would combine my understanding of [Essence] with the [Power of Nothingness] as the foundation to build the fourth gate.’

Wang Wei woke up from his enlightenment and felt this idea was feasible for his transcendent path. However, he also realized he was missing many necessary things to make it possible. ’Maitreya’s technique — I need to see a true method of transcendence before I can make my own.’

Wang Wei had some minor understanding of the transcendent path due to his Qi Luck Dragon, comprehending the lock’s secrets, and, more importantly, learning the [Blueprint Existence Technique]. All these have granted him some advantages for when he becomes Half-Step Transcendence, but he felt they were not nearly enough.

’I hope she shares that technique once the lock is dealt with,’ Wang Wei thought. Maitreya or even Supreme Unity’s technique would significantly accelerate his transcendent path. Still, he was confident he could do it without them — especially now that he had a concrete idea that he could follow. Without their technique, it would only take longer, and Wang Wei might have to take the risk to try and observe their [Existence] with his new technique.

’What a good day,’ Wang Wei thought as he returned to his retreat. Now that he had a way forward on his transcendent path, he was in the best mood he’d been in a while. Time passed, and Wang Wei had to open his eyes after a few decades.

’Finally, I’m back to the Empyrean Realm,’ Wang Wei thought. Being able to see his blueprint had many advantages, one of which was he knew the best way to heal his [Existence Injury] and return to his former cultivation realm.

"I should return to my peak before the 300 years are up," Wang Wei muttered with a grin. He walked out of the room.

"What’s the urgency?"

"Lady Xi Shangyan wanted to see you," Wang Qi replied. "She was very insistent."

"Oh? Let her in." Wang Wei prepared the tea, table, and dessert, and a beautiful woman in yellow with star-like eyes walked into the room. He situated her before him and served tea.

"How have you been?"

"As good as anyone can be in these trying times," she replied.

"True," Wang Wei nodded. "But something seems on your mind."

Xi Shangyan sipped her tea. "As you already know, the lock has stranded the Celestial Race in the Source Qi Space, leaving a few of us." Xi Shangyan paused as she blushed a little. "The Mortalhood Trial is an important event — an opportunity I cannot pass down. However, without access to the clan, I cannot pay for those five pills I —"

"No need to worry," Wang Wei immediately reassured her. "The Celestial Clan is one of the first groups to believe and invest in me, so this is the least I can do."

"I promise to repay you as soon as I can contact the clan," Xi Shangyan promised. Wang Wei wanted to refuse but realized this girl was thin-skinned, and his refusal might make her even more embarrassed.

"No problem," Wang Wei agreed calmly. "I can give two additional spots if you wish."
