Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 675

Elder He appeared in the Battle Spirit World, and just as he quietly left, no one knew or detected his return. Without pause, he went to see the Three Elder Council.

"Ancestor, how did it go?" hurriedly asked Patriarch He.

"The mission failed," Elder He replied calmly.

"Even you could not break through their protective array?"

"I didn't get a chance. It appeared the upper dimension intervened and helped the Dao Opening Sect acquires Eternal Strength as protection."

"What?" Patriarch He did not expect this outcome. Meanwhile, Patriarch Jia sighed softly," Isn't this the reason we never directly destroy them during their weakened state? Fear of their ancestors in the upper dimension."

"Maybe we should have been bolder and more direct when the lower dimension was sealed," added the Disciplinary,

Elder He listened to these people's conversation and could not help secretly shake his head.

'This generation's leader is a little mediocre.' He agreed the sect needed to interfere with the Myriad Emperor World and the Dao Opening Sect, but he would never agree with a direct Emperor Dao War.

The Spirit Genesis Sect would definitely win the war, but the injury they would suffer in the process would be severe. And if the Dao Opening Sect decides to destroy all their resources before they are eradicated, then the victory would not even be worth it.

"What should we do now? Ask Ancestor Jia?" asked Patriarch He.

"Leave him to heal his injuries," disagreed Elder He.

Then, we can ask other factions to send Immortal Sovereigns."

"We may have to pay a steep price, but now, the Dao Opening Sect is a genuine threat, so let's not hesitate," stated Patriarch Jia.

"I agree."

"We can't," said Elder He.

"Why?"

"Our actions are already a direct interference of the Heaven Will Battle, and if not for its protection, even the lower dimension sealing would protect us from True Heavenly Dao. Any more direct attack will have severe consequences."

"That's true. The other factions do not have protections and won't be willing to take the risk, no matter the price we offer."

"Is there anything we can do? I don't want to leave things like this," stated Patriarch He, looking at his ancestor for guidance.

"Our only option is to use the Four Symbol Mirror."

The three squinted their eyes after hearing this. "Isn't this going too far?"

"It is, so you need to determine whether it is worth it," replied Elder He. The Four Symbol Mirror is one the greatest foundations of the Spirit Genesis Sect, and it is a broken Empyrean Artifact.

Anything related to Empyreans will not be left in the lower dimension as True Heavenly Dao would remove them–even a broken weapon. However, Emperor Jia found one and created a way to leave it in the lower dimension for the sect. Although it is only a broken one, the power of the mirror is something even Elder He has awe and fear for.

"The price for using it alone might not be worth it," said Patriarch He, who suddenly appeared reasonable.

"Indeed."

'It seems these people are not as bad as I thought,' thought Elder He. No matter the sect, there will be generations where their leaders are not on par. As long as they are not stupid to the point of ruining the sect's foundation, the old Ancestors will not interfere and will wait for the next generation.

"You have to be smart about how to use it."

"Ancestor, what do you mean?"

"Direct use of the mirror is also a form of intervention, and I just warned you of this. So, you need to use it in a way that is not interfering."

The three frowned, confused by the Ancestor's meaning.

"Ancestor, please guide us."

Elder He did not immediately give them the answer but patiently said: "What is the last information you received from the Myriad Emperor World?"

"The Clean Up was happening soon after more people reached the Supreme Realm," commented Disciplinary Head.

"Now, use this information in combination with the mirror." The group frowned while pondering. A few minutes later, Patriarch He's eyes lit up. "The Heaven Chosens should now be in the Devil World for the Clean Up. We can use the mirror there."

"Exactly. Empress Wu's seal is nothing compared to the Protective Array. And luckily, it has been weakened by someone or something." Elder He went to check after his battle with Sword One.

"Remember: this is an issue of the younger generation and has nothing to do with us, old geezers."
