Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 397

Chapter 397: The Truth I

Wang Wei absorbed the two floating orbs inside his body, and as soon as he did so, two giant figures appeared behind his back. These two figures were his grandfather and father.

The two gray orbs that he absorbed were an application of the [Fate Stealing Technique]. By copying and storing the fate of someone else, Wang Wei can temporarily use their powers.

As the two most powerful people that he knew, Wang Wei copied their fate. When he developed this technique, he wanted to copy his wife's fate. Unfortunately, she was too powerful for him to do so.

Additionally, this technique required a lot of time, consent, and aid from the person whose fate is being copied. Plus, it seems to work better with people that are closely related to the caster.

After the two images appeared behind Wang Wei, his Physique's vision also appeared, then, his father and grandfather fused with the vision. That way, Wang Wei who sat on a throne with the River of Fate under his feet suddenly changed.

His robe turned into a golden armor, his temperament became more overbearing, more unruly; it was as if he had become a tyrant that forced anyone who stood in his way to bow down and surrender to him.

In his hand was a beautiful sword full of dragon and phoenix designs. On the hilt of the sword was the character for "Heaven". Then, Wang Wei in the vision stood up from his throne that hovered above myriad worlds and races.

A sword cry riveted across Heaven and Earth before a sword qi bigger than a universe gathered in the sky. The vision finally slashed its sword.

[Absolute Fate Slash]

Just like the name implied, this slash was absolute, final, so it cut through anything that stood in its way. It was simply unstoppable–or so it should be.

As Di Tian watched that slash rushing towards him, he thought, 'This Wang Tian's talent can compare to the Sword Empress.'

In his long life, only three Eternal emperors have officially defeated him in battle. And amongst these three, his defeat against the Sword Empress had the greatest impact on him.

This was because of how easily he was defeated. With just a swing of her bamboo sword, Di Tian's body and most of his soul were annihilated. So, as a person who learned from his mistake, he also studied swordsmanship during his long life.

He gathered Sword Scriptures from all over the world through his Sleepers, including the Sword Empress' [Heaven Slashing Sutra]. So, his accomplishment in the field is quite high.

Even if his talent is not on par with her and Wang Tian, his long years of studying the subject more than makeup for that. So, after making a spear-shape palm, he slashed with one hand creating a powerful slash to block that heaven-shattering attack.

Unfortunately, Di Tian slightly underestimated the power of that slash. As it was a combination of Wang Clan's three generations, it also represented the concept of the past, present, and future.

Wang Chang is the past, Wang Tian the present, and Wang Wei the future. So, this attack also contained Time Power.

The moment the two slashes clashed, Di Tian felt a powerful pressure pressing on his body. On top of that, that pressure seemed to drastically slow time, making his actions and thinking process extremely slow.

With his understanding of Time Dao, Di Tian quickly nullified the attack, but this was not all the power of the slash after all. As it was a combination of three people, there was also a third characteristic.

A powerful illusion boosted by all of Wang Wei's Paragon-Quality Soul

Suddenly, Di Tian's eyes seemed to blur as if he was confused. He raised his hand to caress the empty air. Then, he smiled. Although it was obvious at first sight that this was the first time he had a genuine smile on his face in a very long time, it still appeared beautiful.

"Ning'er," he muttered while smiling and caressing the air; two lines of tear dripped down on his face in the process. And even after that slash hit his body, creating a wound more than 30 cm long, he did not react.

'I'm running out of time,' thought Wang Wei. He saw that one of his Trump Card Attacks had created so little damage and he knew how dangerous the situation was.

He immediately activated His Heavenly Eye of Fate to connect to the River of Fate of this World. Then, he slashed once again, this time directing his attack at the river.

And with that single attack, he was able to servers that River of Fate from its main branch. While using the power of the river during this fight, Wang Wei learned something new about fate.

There is a River of Fate that is considered the main branch. It's responsible to weave the fate of all beings in existence and contains all information about all lives.
