Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 613

The information Wang Wei received confirmed one of his predictions regarding the fate of the Heaven Devour Emperor. After being exiled to the Eternal Ascension World, a group of Emperors from the Myriad Emperor World were not too receptive to his actions that almost destroyed their homeworld, and took matters into their own hands to deal with the traitor.

They banded together and besieged him, destroying his body, soul, and Dao. Regrettably, these people did not have the ability to erase him from history since Wang Wei knew very well of the Heaven Devour Emperor's existence and accomplishments.

'If the Heaven Devour Emperor has possessed Mo Xingyun, many things will make sense. But a few more questions will also be raised.'

Wang Wei shook his head, placing these thoughts in the back of his mind. He then focused on the Deceiving Heaven Longevity Art; he felt this scripture had so much potential, but it also made no sense.

A few hours later, he had a basic understanding of the scripture.

"Now, it makes sense."

The concept of deception as Dao always bewildered him–especially when it involved deceiving Heavenly Dao or Grand Dao to access the Grand Dao Source. He knew that Grand Dao was the highest authority of the Grand Dao Source, while True Heavenly Dao and normal Heavenly Dao were essentially employees.

Grand Dao was the only omnipotent and omnipresent existence, or neigh omnipotent and present. So, how would someone like Gu Xuan deceive it into accessing the Grand Dao Source?

Even if Wang Wei thought of the problem on a smaller scale, how did Gu Xuan deceive Heavenly Dao to extend his lifespan? In terms of power level, Heavenly Dao was equal to a Second-Class Emperor.

Okay, Wang Wei admits this part was slightly believable, but the access to the Grand Dao Source that made this technique an Insurgent made no sense.

Fortunately, he found the answer. The entire Chaos Universe was like a video game, and Grand Dao was the artificial intelligence that controlled the whole server. As the thing with the highest authority and power, it has rules and regulations that it must follow, one of which is that all things in the universe can be a Dao–including Deception.

So, once a person cultivates Deception Dao and reaches a high enough level, when they touch the domain of deceiving Heaven and Earth, Grand Dao will give them a pass and allow "the deception" even if it was fully aware the player was lying to it.

Nevertheless, Grand Dao still gave parameters and limits to this deception, guidelines that all players who use Deception must follow. This is why Gu Xuan could deceive the Grand Dao Source that he was an Emperor, thus becoming an Insurgent. This is why he could even deceive Heavenly Dao to expand his lifespan.

"Gu Xuan took things too far," muttered Wang Wei. Gu Xuan pushed the boundaries of Grand Dao's restrictions too far, losing most of his luck in the process. Adding to that his emotions and desires resulted in him coming to his end in the Lower Dimension.

'This is a lesson for me. Always be aware of your emotions and desires, and do not let them control you.' Wang Wei knew most plans fail at the last moment because the schemer cannot control themselves right before the final moment of success. The same rules applied to Gu Xuan.

If he had possessed someone like Ji Lanfang, Mu Lei, or even the female players, he most likely would have succeeded. However, his greed and ambitions got the best of him. Of all the players in this trial, he and Chu Luo were the people who had a 99 percent chance of becoming Eternal Emperor.

Meanwhile, the others could only be said to have a 70 to 90% chance. Because of his greed and personality, Gu Xuan did not want to take any chance; he wanted guaranteed success.

"This technique still has some value," muttered Wang Wei.

The Deceiving Heaven Longevity Art involved "deceiving" Heaven that they were another person once their lifespan reached the limit, granting them another life. The restriction is that the cultivator has to start from scratch and recultivate, and the deception could only be used nine times.

As for the Insurgent aspect to gain control of the Grand Dao Source, a unique ceremony is required to cultivate where a cultivator has to sacrifice something to Grand Dao for the deception of controlling the Grand Dao Source and becoming an Insurgent. The price of the sacrifice often time limits the person's level of an Insurgent.

For example, if a Dao Ancestor wanted to achieve the strength of a Third-Class Emperor, they would need a minimum of 5 Emperor Weapons as a sacrifice, and their comprehension of the Grand Dao Source has to be at least 20%, meaning it was not a one to one exchange.

Moreover, the Insurgent part no longer functioned after reaching the Dao Ruler Realm since Gu Xuan did not come up with other methods to increase its power. He once tried sacrificing even more powerful treasures for Grand Dao to allow him to become a Tier 11 Insurgent, but it did not work.

"Nevertheless, this is a scripture with a lot of potentials." Wang Wei knew this scripture would shine after he proved the Dao. The benefit that it was a Longevity Scripture granting him one extra life was worthy of it. However, the real value was that he should be able to deceive Heavenly Dao after he proved the Dao, allowing him to accomplish many things.

And when he becomes a Paragon, he should be able to deceive True Heavenly Dao–unless it is on the same level as the two suns as he theorized as a possibility.

And one day, this technique might prove useful when he can stand at the same height as Grand Dao.

'If I play my cards correctly, I might be able to use this technique to hide from the parasites after I ascend.'

Wang Wei knew he would be enemy number one after ascending. And as he is still determining whether he will be able to fight Paragons in the Empyrean Realm, he might need to hide for a while. And this scripture could be the method he uses. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

After going over everything, he finally exited the pagoda, where he saw Lord's Spirit waiting for him. Gu Xuan used some methods to control the spirit, so now she was loyal to him.

Gu Xuan left most of his treasures in the upper dimension as resources for when he ascended. However, he left a few valuables in the Pagoda, including two Insurgent Qis that could create First Class-Emperor strength Insurgents; he wanted to have two loyal people (slaves) protecting him during his cultivation journey and ensure nothing went wrong.
