Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 320

From her research, she discovered that this world does indeed have Immortal Qi, but a downgraded version of the real one. However, even with this off-brand version, it still granted the cultivators of this world a very long lifespan.

After making this discovery, Wu Hong became more interested in this world. She wanted to find the source of this downgrade Immortal Qi; this secret alone might be worth more than the reason she came here.

With hesitation, she left the compound of the Flying Sword Sect to a desolate place and immediately simulated the aura of an Earth Immortal. Then, just like what happened to her in the mortal world, Tribulation Thunder descended from the sky, then she ascended to the Immortal World.

The first thing that Wu Hong noticed after arriving was the fact that her strength was no longer limited; she no longer felt like she was in a suffocating cage.

After taking a deep and long breath, she ignored the people around her that wanted to either solicit her or ask her what sect she was from. She immediately disappeared from their sight.

After a few teleportations, she appeared in front of a cave that was surrounded by formations. With a flick of her finger, the formation was broken.

"Who?!" roared a voice from inside.

Wu Hong looked at the old man who appeared in front of her. With just a look from her, the old man found himself frozen and unable to move. A look of horror appeared in his eyes.

After pointing her finger at his forehead, Wu Hong quickly searched the old man’s soul. However, she was still gentle and did not leave any problems for him.

She quickly learned that he was a Heavenly Immortal, which was this world’s equivalent to Supreme Realm. After the Earth Immortal is Mystic Immortal, followed by Heavenly Immortal.

Finally, the Heavenly Immortals can compete for the Heaven Will and reach the realm of Immortal Emperor.

"My guess was correct," muttered Wu Hong with a voice only she could hear. "This world does not practice law, but focuses on accumulating energy to sublimate it."

Wu Hong knew of cultivation systems that only focus on only accumulating energy. These kinds of systems usually sacrifice one thing for another; they are usually following the path of extreme.

For example, the Immortal System of this world sacrifice strength and battle powers for a long lifespan. The average Heaven Immortal can live for more than 200 million years, which is more than 200 times the average lifespan of a Supreme Realm True Monarchs.

However, from what Wu Hong observed, an average Void Shaterring Realm cultivator from her world has the same strength as a Heavenly Immortal.

On top of that, there is another flaw in the cultivation system that focused on energy accumulation: they usually create very weak Great Emperors.

Controlling the law is a process of slowly training to control the Great Dao. However, since energy-based systems do not have this training wheel as support, once they absorb the Heaven Will, it becomes harder for them to control the Great Dao Source of a Great Emperor.

Wu Hong along with many Great Emperors despise Energy-Base System. The reason is that these systems are not training cultivators to become Great Emperors, but to become Immortal Venerables.

The highest level of energy that mortals underneath the Great Emperor Realm can bear is Immortal Qi. So, the ultimate end of the Energy-Base System is to turn whatever energy that they cultivate to Immortal Qi and achieve immortality.

...

After getting the information she needed from that old man, Wu Hong pondered whether she should search the source of diluted Immortal Qi in this world first, or accomplish her original goals first.

After pondering for a brief moment, she decided to accomplish her goals first as she might have to confront this world’s Heavenly Dao when doing the second one.

So, based on the information she received from the old man, she headed to her destination: the Ancient Magus Region.

The Immortal World is divided into countless regions ruled by powerful sects with Emperor Lineages. However, the Ancient Magus Region is one of the few ownerless regions of this world because it was the site of an ancient battlefield where countless powerful beings fought and died.

As a result of this, many secret realms and inheritance is left there. The many different Emperor Lineages did not want other factions to occupy such a place full of resources, so an accord was reached that no one was allowed to occupy the region.
