Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 335

Wang Wei gazed at a girl dressed in a blue hanfu with golden threads; her clothes were perfectly fitted, displaying her feminine curves. She had an exquisite face that seemed to be perfectly sculpted.

Her eyes resembled the purest of jewels that could reflect the sun or any other surface. Her long hair–which reached her all the way to her posterior–floated with the wind.

She had a flame mark in the middle of her forehead which further embellished her beauty. As she stood there, she exuded a very noble temperament like she was divine.

Unlike Fang Lijuan of the Divine Dao League, her noble temperament did not come out as arrogance, but more natural; it was as if Heaven and Earth accepted the fact that she was noble.

In terms of beauty or temperament, this woman did not lose to either Su Ya, Wu Hong, or even Xi Shi.

Of course, the reason that Wang Wei paid attention to her was not because of her beauty, but because he felt a very powerful bloodline inside her body. Moreover, her aura seemed very strange and weird, like she was incompatible with her surroundings.

It’s unfortunate that she seemed to have a way to block any observation abilities that try to pry her secret, so his eyes could not see anything more.

After hearing Wang Wei’s question, Yan Chen pondered for a while before saying: "She might be from the Huo Family."

"Huo Family? I’ve never heard about them."

"That’s because they are an Ancient Aristocratic Clan."

"Another term that I’ve never heard about. Supreme Elder, can you please explain?" said Wang Wei.

"Ancient Aristocratic Clans are families that survived the Null Era. Essentially, any clan that existed since the Beginning Emperor Era. For example, the Huo family is very prestigious amongst the ancient clan.

"They claimed that their ancestor was the first Acquired Human that discovered fire. Because of their discovery, humans were no longer afraid of the dark, did not die from the cold, and so on.

"Because of this discovery, their clan received a great number of merit and Qi Luck.

"Of course, these are just rumors with no substantial proof. However, according to records from our sect, those claims are most likely true. Unfortunately, most factions just refused to acknowledge it to prevent the Huo family and other ancient aristocratic clans from gathering too much merit and Luck."

Wang Wei became intrigued; he knew that the water of this world was deep and there were many things or secrets that he did not know yet. So, he was not that surprised that some ancient clan suddenly popped out.

"Since they could survive for so long, they should be quite powerful, right?" he asked.

"You would think so, but no," replied Yan Chen who was caressing his beard.

"The majority of them suffered terrible losses during the Null Era. However, this is not the main reason for their decline. These ancient clans are very stubborn when it comes to tradition and rules.

"During the Ancient Emperor Era, the majority of them refused to adapt to the changing world and were slowly eliminated by the times."

"Oh, what exactly do you mean?"

"For example, these clans refuse to cultivate the Origin System and instead, continue to cultivate the system of ancient times. Unfortunately, the current environment is way too inferior to ancient times, as such, it is not suitable to the ancient cultivation system."

After hearing this, Wang Wei understood why these ancient clans declined. Heaven and Earth will change to nurture the most prosperous cultivation system in any world.

An excellent example of this fact is origin stones or origin source that is used as currency and to cultivate in the Myriad Emperor World. Origin Qi is not an energy that existed between heaven and earth but one that was created by the Qiyuan Emperor.

Despite this, the entire world is full of mines that contain origin stones and sources, which cultivators can directly absorb. Logically speaking, the world should only have mines that contained spiritual stones since spiritual qi is prevalent between Heaven and Earth.

The reason for this anomaly is that Heavenly Dao acknowledged the fact that the Origin System is the orthodox cultivation system of this world, so it changed the world to benefit this system.

Over the years, resources unique only to this system were developed to help it prosper and flourish. This is one of the reasons that most worlds do not have multiple cultivation systems.

"Since there are ancient aristocratic clans, are there any ancient sects too?" asked Wang Wei.
