Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 444

Chapter 444: Forbidden Land

On his return trip, Wang Wei did not rush home, instead, he took a Void Boat to slowly return. He wanted to take this quiet moment to think to himself.

This so-called trial was more difficult than he could imagine. If it was as the old beggar stated, logically speaking, everyone that he ever met could be turned against him.

Just thinking about this fact would probably make most people paranoid but not him. His state of mind allowed him to remain calm and think about things logically.

He did not think that whether it was his friends or family would turn on him, however, he will still be on the lookout just in case. After all, there are things like Soul Controlling in this world.

Who knows what could happen.

Then, Wang Wei's mind began to function rapidly, using all the 10 billion different spirit particles to think, gather information and come up with different ideas.

Suddenly, he thought of something.

'Could it be one of the reasons that Di Tian placed those Karmic Sins on me was because of the trial? He should have known that I was an Outlaw, so it is not too far-fetched.

'The question is what was his end goal? I don't believe that he could not anticipate me removing that Karma, so there must be something that I'm missing.

'Could the Karma increase the difficulty of the trial? Or is it something else?'

Wang Wei could not come up with an answer, but he decided to label this information as important and keep watch for it. Since this trial involved a Great Emperor-level being calculating him, he theorized that he might need wisdom or intelligence to pass it.

However, his strength should also not fall decrease.

It took Wang Wei more than 5 hours to return home, and by that time, he had a preliminary plan on what to do next. Once he got home, he told his family about what he learned.

"Some sort of tribulation?" thought Wu Hong. "In that case, I might be able to help."

She remembered the Disaster Emperor. He was born with a strange physique that attracted disasters or tribulations toward him all his life. Because of this, no matter where he went, something terrible would happen to him.

One time, he was walking out of a forest and a meteor just dropped on top of him. To deal with this issue, he created an artifact that would block all kinds of tribulation from Heaven and Earth.

'If I remember correctly, he left an inheritance before leaving. Maybe, that artifact is inside.'

After hearing her explanation, Wang Wei was relieved as she left to get it. As for his family, there was little they could do in the situation except for offering him emotional support and giving him all the resources he wanted.

Wang Wei appreciated that and gave the formation that the old beggar gave him to do something for him. Then, he went to do other things to prepare for this trial.

He first went to check on Di Tian's Sleepers.

After he first discovered them, he did a thorough check and even send someone to do the same in the Yu Clan. And after their battle, he once again checked because of what he said.

And Wang Wei did find a few ones that previously escaped his ability. And now that he was more powerful and had a greater understanding of Karma, he once again check.

After his guest that Di Tian might be scheming against him with Karmic Virtues, he did not want to take any chances. This time, his search was proven to be futile, making him both relieved and disappointed.

Once that was done, Wang Wei focused on his next step of action. Although he knew about the trial, he did not know in what shape it would take, nor how he would pass. And that was a problem.

So, he went to the Secret Archive to read about the life of the Great Emperors that were Outlaws. Unfortunately, these things were not detailed enough for him to gather any information.

However, he did notice that all of them suffered some tragedy sometime during their cultivation journey. This could be the result of the trial or just simply the way the life of powerful people were.

While walking out of the Secret Archive, Wang Wei had a pondering look on his face.

'In the end, I still have to rely on divination.'
