Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366 - Heavy Responsibility

After hearing Ao Shen's words, the chameleon did not hesitate to hand over a small bronze boat to him that seemed to have many cracks on the surface.

This small boat was the reason he was able to break through the array of the Dao Opening Sect and Wang Wei's Quasi-Emperor Void Blocking Talisman. Although he knew how valuable such a treasure was, he did not dare steal it.

After receiving the boat, Ao Shen nodded in satisfaction before saying: "I know that you are the only True Monarch of your Chameleon Tribe. After what you did today, the Tribal Council will reward you and your tribes greatly."

The Chameleon Chief bowed politely before rapidly exiting the room. Ao Shen just glanced at him before focusing on the vial of blood. After one last look, he placed it into his space ring.

He could not absorb it now as this would bring visions between Heaven and Earth. And once that happened, the human race might discover him. Then, he took out a small golden orb while in deep thought.

After succeeding in his bloodline transformation, Ao Shen not only inherited the surname "Ao" but also inherited a cultivation technique, a few Divine Abilities, and memories of ancient times.

In these memories, he learned many secrets regarding the reason that the Null Era occurred: the battle between Acquire and Innate Lifes that spread to countless Heaven Will Worlds.

A battle that covered the entire lower dimension.

One secret was particularly important to him. He learned that Innate Lifes could not absorb the Heaven Will to become Great Emperors.

After getting that information, Ao Shen was worried thinking that all the efforts of their demon race were for nothing. However, after digging deeper, he realized that things were not as simple as he previously thought.

The reason that Innate Lifes could not absorb the Heaven Will was not that they were born from Heaven and Earth; it was because of Heavenly Dao. During the [Innate-Acquire War], every single individual, every single race, every single world has to choose a side: there was no exception–including Heavenly Dao.

The Myriad Emperor World–which was the place the entire war originated–was the first world to choose a side: it chose Acquired Life. As a result of this, Innate Lifeforms could not absorb the Heaven Will.

At the pinnacle of the war, Great Emperors and Innate Demon Gods did whatever possible to convince the Heavenly Dao of Heaven Will Worlds to choose their side.

The Innate Demon Gods were fascinated by the prospect of becoming a Great Emperor and having access to the Grand Dao Source. Adding to that their already heaven-defying bloodlines, those Innate Great Emperors were cream of the top.

By the end of the war, only a few Heavenly Dao could still remain neutral.

After thinking about this, Ao Shen frowned as he muttered: "Heavenly Dao is ruthless and the epitome of indifference; it is only a bunch of laws designed to operate the world in a standard and controlled manner.

"How could it choose a side? Although it can have some slight favoritism to something or someone, only if they benefit the entire world as a whole.

"Unless it gained sentience! However, if that was true, the Myriad Emperor World would be completely different than it currently was. Additionally, many Great Emperors would have noticed if it had gained sentience."

After pondering for a few minutes and not coming up with an answer, Ao Shen did not continue on the subject. Once he is more powerful he can find the answer to these secrets.

According to his plans, as long as he has enough Merit, Heavenly Dao should not stop him from accepting the Heaven Will. The question is how to get enough merit.

As he had more important things to do, Ao Shen places these thoughts at the back of his head. He looked at the cracked boat in his hand after putting the golden light away.

"It's time for me to leave."

He rushed to a secret room inside the mansion and activated a formation. A door appeared and Ao Shen stepped into it. A few seconds later, he found himself in a small world with a few people waiting for him.

They were the Four Head Chiefs: Golden Lion Chieftess, Battle Ape Chief, Golden Roc Chief, and Black Tiger Chief.

"Did you succeed?" asked the Golden Lion Chieftess, to which, Ao Shen replied simply by nodding his head.

A peaceful smile appeared on her face before handing him two things: one ring and a jade talisman. Ao Shen used his Divine Sense to check the space ring and a slight surprise flashed across his eyes.

Inside was a very large space full of white mountains. However, these were not real mountains but ones made of origin source.

"The origin source is mainly for you as an energy source for the Immortal Bronze Boat. However, there should be more than enough for you to cultivate for a while after you arrived."
