Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1455

Chapter 1455 Invitation

"So, it's meaningless?" Xu Shi asked.

"Not necessarily," Kong answered. "My view is we should at least enter the taboo realm at least once, and after reaching that level, there may be a way to make up for it." "I see."

"So, what do you think we should do?" Lin Fan asked.

"You can follow your own path," Kong said. "Lin Fan can continue his spring to the Paragon Realm, and Xu Shi can start planning for her battle taboo." _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}

"But master, we don't have the information on how to do it."

Kong was momentarily quiet: "With my current realm, I can probably deduce the truth, but it would take a while, so it would be best to ask someone else."

They both sighed before Xu Shi uttered: "I'll contact Wang Wei."

"Master, what exactly is your plan?" Lin Fan asked. He knew of his master's temperament, so it was odd for him to rush to the Paragon Realm at all costs.

"You will know in due time," Kong replied. "By the way, where is my son?"

"Brother Bai is still hunting."

"Keep an eye on him, and don't let him do anything stupid," Kong warned. He forbade his son from experiencing the Immeasurable Tribulation. Bai Han is not like his two disciples, who are blessed with immense, unique destinies and talents, meaning his chances of passing the tribulation after such a short period in the Empyrean Realm were slim. So, he planned to train him to the peak of the Empyrean Realm and get an entrance token to return to the trial once he was truly ready.

"Is there anything else?"

"No."

"Be careful," Emperor Kong warned them before ending the conversation, leaving the couple alone.

"Are you sure you're not going to regret your decision?" Xu Shi asked.

"Maybe I will in the future, but for now, I'm willing to accept whatever consequences await."

"Very well," Xu Shi said before kissing him on the cheek. She walked to the room next door to contact Wang Wei. She had noticed his decision was not simply due to a desire for power; there was obviously something more at play, but since he hasn't brought it up, she'll wait until he's ready to talk about it.

…

Wang Wei ended his conversation with Xu Shi. "Another one has awakened," he muttered. First was Xiao Tiandi and Xun Junyao, and now Xu Shi came along. He hoped more of his peers would realize the same, but he would not remind them himself.

'Alright, time for a short retreat,' Wang Wei thought. He closed his eyes, and 500 years passed. His cultivation reached the Fourth Heaven or 94%. 'This trial's spirits are greater vampires than I could ever dream of,' he complained. He acquired many points, but they only allowed him to increase his cultivation by 1%.

"Tower spirit, are you there?"

"Hmm? Are you calling me?"

A small humanoid spirit in scholarly clothes, sitting on a large, opened book twice his size, appeared before him.

"Yes."

"Normally, we don't respond to participants unless it's really urgent or something special has occurred, but it seems you're one of our high-value targets. So, what can I do for you?"

Wang Wei's lips twitched. He exhaled to control himself. "Is there any way you could make a Refining Tower? I would like to refine an artifact at the fastest speed possible."

"A tower to refine weapons and other stuff?" A glint flashed in the spirit's eyes. "What a great idea! Now that many Paragons will be competing in the trial, a Refining Tower is an excellent idea." The Dao Spirit immediately started to dissipate.

"Wait."

"Is there any else?" he asked in annoyance.

"Since it's my idea, can't you give me some credit? Give me a reward or a discount — give me something."

"You have a point," The Dao Spirit uttered as he rested his head on his palm. "How about a 5% discount on your next tower? No, 5% is too much. 1%? That's too little. I know — a 2% discount. How about it?"
