Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 667

Fang Lijuan did not waste time and activated her Dharma Body, which looked like her but had a weird aura surrounding it that made it seem that it did not exist, that it was invisible. Li Jun followed her and deployed his Dharma Body, except it had a hidden quiet bloodlust hidden deep in his eyes.

"Tell me, how can you affect something you cannot see? Something invisible."

Li Jun immediately lost track of Fang Lijuan as she became invisible to him and unknown to the world.

"How can an ant hide from a god? And unfortunately, no creature–known or unknown–can escape the clutches of death." His Dharma Body stabbed a golden spear directly at Fang Lijuan's location.

[Shadow Escape]

She disappeared before manifesting a distance, avoiding the attack. Immediately, Fang Lijuan knew the fight wouldn't be as easy as she had guessed.

"Shadow Dao? It seems you've improved since we last met," said Li Jun.

Fang Lijuan did not answer; she might have been quite arrogant before, but after breaking through the limit of her bloodline and experiencing many things in this generation, she's not stupid enough to keep holding on to certain detrimental ideas of the Divine Dao League. She knows to constantly improve and never become complacent. Otherwise, the only fate awaiting her is death, or worse, becoming irrelevant.

[Wrath of the Shadow World]

Li Jun sensed something and looked into the sky. 'Invisible shadow?' He sensed she created a small world full of Shadow Energy to enhance her attack. Then, she applied her Invisible Dao to the shadow to enhance their hiding ability.

Bang!

Numerous shadow spears, swords, palms, and punches landed on Li Jun, but he did not move a single step; he easily tanked the attack with his fleshly body with no injury. Then, he looked at her as if to say: do you have something better? Is this the best you can do?

"Oftentimes, knowledge and the truth are invisible to us."

The surrounding immediately changed after Fang Lijuan's Dharma Body used this technique. The soldiers in the surroundings began to lose their knowledge or all the things they learned in their lives–including how to cultivate and how to use their powers.

They began to forget fundamental truths like they were humans, had a mind, spirit, and soul, or that they understood the laws of Heaven and Earth. And it was the same for Li Jun.

"The fear of death is ingrained in all living beings, and slaughter is instinctual–especially when someone is cornered."

Li Jun's counter immediately removed the effect of this spell before counter-attacking with a beam of death energy. Fang Lijuan's Dharma Body turned into a giant crystal and protected her.

Boom!

She defended the attack but was still injured; blood spilled from her nose, and her complexion became paler. Fang Lijuan immediately tried to make her injury invisible as a way to heal; if it's not there and invisible, then it does not exist. Unfortunately, Li Jun's Duyi Realm would not allow such a thing.

'Is this what Mo Xingyun referred to as Duyi Realm? How can Li Jun be talented enough to reach such a stage?'

Fang Lijuan knew she could not achieve Nine Extremity, so she wanted to enter the Duyi Realm at least. But even that was more challenging than it sounded. Her mind worked rapidly, thinking of countermeasures.

Meanwhile, Wang Wei looked at the battle from a distance. They were not surprised by the flowering words these Dharma Bodies would recite during the match. In the Supreme Realm, battles are often more about understanding the Dao and manifested in the form of a philosophical debate.

Although it may appear stupid and pointless to some people, they knew these battles were perilous if something went wrong. If a cultivator suddenly doubts their Daos during one of these debates, there is a high chance of developing Heart Devil, the collapse of the Dao Heart, and/or their state of mind.

And this collapse has created the existence of an anomaly: Half Emperors. Typically, these people with doubts or wrong interpretations of their Dao would die if they ever touched the Heaven Will. However, throughout history, one recorded exception is the Heat Emperor.

The Heat Emperor cultivated Pure Yang Dao, with a fighting style involving extreme heat to burn all matters and concepts. However, in one of his battle in the Supreme Realm, someone pointed out that 'solitary Yang cannot exist without Yin, and vice versa," meaning he needed a touch of Yin Dao in his extreme Yang Dao. Unfortunately, the Heat Emperor refused to accept this fact and went on a maddening tirade.

Years later, no one knew how he managed to enter the Quasi-Realm, and he took the Heaven Will with some luck and strength. Then, the world learned of Half-Emperors–an entity even weaker than Pseudo-Emperors.
