Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 255

The room became quiet after someone brought this topic. "Should our attitude remains as tough as Bai Han?" asked one of the True Monarch.

"There is no need for that."

"Then, what do we do?"

"How about doing nothing!"

"What do you mean?"

"We all know that Wang Wei wants to use his victory over Ji Song to acquire a token to enter the secret realm of the Dao Tablets. So, we just have to let him."

"Hmm, that’s a good idea, but your entire plan is based on the premise that Wang Wei will be the victor in this battle."

"Was there ever any doubt about this?"

"Before Bai Han gave him the Devil God Bone, maybe."

"In my opinion, the bone only gives him the ability to not instantly being defeated. All of you should have seen how easily Wang Wei broke that Heaven Tier formation with his bare hands."

These True Monarchs remembered that moment and realized that this person was right.

"On top of that, I notice that most people seem to have forgotten something: his physique. Every time people talk about Wang Wei’s strength, they mention his intelligence, soul, and fleshly body, but never the advantage of his special physique."

"That’s true," said another True Monarch. "Logical speaking, the Dao of Fate should be on par with Chaos. The only reason that it was not ranked first or second is probably because it is still considered an Acquired Physique in the eyes of Heavenly Dao."

"I thought that the reason that his physique was never mentioned was that without the proper cultivation technique, or breaking into the Void Shattered Realm and controlling the Power of Law, the advantages it brought him was very limited-- just like Mo Xingyun’s Heaven Devour Physique."

"No, the Heaven Devour Physique still grants Mo Xingyun fighting abilities. Plus, she has the Heaven Devouring Emperor as a blueprint on how to use and evolve her physique. But Wang Wei has to start from scratch."

"Many people have speculated that this Fate Puppeteer Physique will grant its owner the natural ability to calculate the secrets of Heaven without paying too much of a price--unlike the people of the Heaven Mystery Pavillion."

"You guys seem to have overlooked something," said the True Monarch who believed that Wang Wei would easily win his battle. "During the Qi Luck Trial, he was the final winner and acquired a Rainbow-colored Luck. So, he should have acquired an Innate Talent perfected suited for his Physique after entering the Supernatural Realm."

The True Monarchs’ eyes light up as they realized that they indeed overlooked this fact. Innate Talent is a gift granted from Heaven and Earth to those it deemed both worthy and fortunate. As such, it is usually designed to perfectly fit the person’s physique (if he/she has one), temperament, dreams or goals, and desires.

From what these people knew about Wang Wei and based on the name of the physique, they can guess that he was not the kind of person that planned to use this physique solely for Divination.

Most likely, he wanted to control his fate along with the fate of myriad things in existence--just like a puppeteer and his marionettes. Adding to that the massive amount of luck he received during the trial, his Innate Talent is most likely very powerful.

As for Ji Song’s Innate Talent, although they could guess that it was also very powerful, it does not change the fact that he only had a Purple-Gold level of Qi Luck after leaving the trial.

"I think this is a good way to end this matter without further antagonize the Dao Opening Sect."

"However, we will most likely lose that Devil God Bone."

"Not necessarily. If our plans for Lin Fan works, then just like Bai Han said, all he has to do is get it back from Wang Wei."

"That’s true. In that case, let’s vote on the matter."

"I agree."

"I agree." All the True Monarchs agreed on this proposition.

"Finally, let’s decide on the next headmaster of the Academy and when to announce it to the world."

"Hmph, I still think that we should not let these people control the power of the Academy."
