Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 429

Chapter 429: Dao Burial Ground

Wang Wei looked at the hooded chapter floating in front of him, holding his broken right hand that had a bent dagger in his other hand. While he was distracting, this person suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stabbed him in his head.

Unfortunately for him, Wang Wei's fleshly body was simply beyond reason. So, instead of killing him as expected, his Supreme Tier dagger was broken, and the force of the attack broke his wrist.

"Who are you? More importantly, how did you bypass my senses?"

He knew that his intuition did not work because this person posed no danger to him, however, even if distracted, it is unreasonable for this person to bypass his senses.

The hooded figure did not say anything. Since the assassination failed, he would retreat. A space tear appeared behind him and he turned invisible. Unfortunately for him, before he could leave, Wang Wei clutched his hand.

This slight movement generated a massive tornado in the sky that rendered the space in the surrounding turbulent and prevented the assassin from escaping. Oddly though, he could not see this assailant, even with his True Vision.

So, he added something else to his True Vision, the power of Karma. The assassin tried to kill him, so there is cause and effect between them. Using that link, he was able to see someone flying with an unparallel speed in the northeast direction.

With one step, he appeared in front of the assassin and waved his hand making the latter unable to move. The hooded figure could not see the numerous invisible threads that bound him.

'How could he see me?'

Meanwhile, Wang Wei looked up and down at this person.

"You're not from the Death Order Palace. They would not break the rules and sent a True Monarch to assassinate me. In that case, you must be from Shadow Slayer Temple.

"Has someone placed a hit list on my head? No, more importantly, have you guys resurfaced in this generation?"

Wang Wei knew of the Shadow Slayer Temple as they were an assassination group like the Death Order Palace. However, unlike the latter, they had no rules or restrictions. As long as someone paid enough money, they will assassinate the target.

Because of this, many Emperor Lineages were not happy with them, so they banded together to find the headquarters of the temple and destroyed them.

Unfortunately, the Shadow Slayer Temple will always resurface after being dormant for a while. No matter how many times they are extinguished, they would resurface again.

The odd thing about this organization is the fact they are not an Emperor Lineage, a Dao Lineage, or even an Immortal Lineage. No, they are just a Supreme Land, and yet, they are so mysterious and powerful.

Every time that they are destroyed, they will resurface again after a while. And all the Emperor Lineages have sent Ancestor-level characters to investigate who is behind them but nothing has ever been found.

According to what Wang Wei knew, even a few Great Emperors have tried to find the mystery behind this faction. And the closest answer that they come up with is that they are related to the Dao Burial Ground, one of the 6 Forbidden Zones of the Myriad Emperor World.

Amongst the forbidden zones, the Dao Burial Ground might not be the most powerful–that title belonged to the Nether Hell–but it might be the hardest to deal with and the one that poses the most danger to the entire world. And that's because they are very sneaky in doing things.

Once in a while, countless figures whose face has been covered by a black fog will come out from that area and began to massacre everyone in their paths: whether it was mortals, cultivators, or demon races, they would kill everything and absorbed their essence.

However, these individuals will never attack the Domains of some powerful Emperor Lineages or their allies. They would also not directly attack the main bases of these lineages.

When it comes to the domains of the weaker Emperor Lineages they will not be spared. And even if these sects woke up their Dao Ancestors and Immortal Venerables, there are usually people from the forbidden zone on par with these cultivators.

What's worse is the fact that the time for their exit is never fixed: sometimes they come one generation after the other, and other times they wait for a few dozens or more generations before appearing.

Many Great Emperors have tried to deal with this problem once and for all. Unfortunately, there is a reason that this place is considered a Forbidden Zone. Many Second-Class Great Emperors have died inside, and even First-Class ones have been greatly injured before running away. A few even died inside as well.

As for Eternal Emperors?
