Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 805

Tong Ruobing searched the Sea of Consciousness. She immediately noticed the latter had a significant amount of Spiritual Strength, but she didn't find anything similar to a soul or Primordial Spirit.

Knowing time was of the essence, she increased the pace of her search, using every means available to her to discover this place's secret. Then, she found something deep in his Sea of Consciousness, towering above this internal space.

"This thing looked like a puppet core," muttered Tong Ruobing as she gazed at the white orb with a strange rune inside. At some point in history, Puppet Dao flourished in the Myriad Emperor World.

Puppet Masters would sell puppets as battle strengths, for labor, or for people to use for their tombs. The Puppet Dao experienced something not recorded in detail by the history books and almost became extinct. Although it survived, it was no longer prosperous, becoming a Side Door Dao not approved or used by many cultivators.

Only recently, with the development of the Dao Opening Sect's Mortal Territory, Puppet Dao had a slight resurgence.

As such, Tong Ruobing also studied or learned about Puppets because of this resurgence. So, she knew puppets would be installed with a Puppet Core containing the runes that gave them different functions or purposes.

The Puppet Core also allowed people to control the puppet by leaving a Soul Imprint on the core.

Tong Ruobing felt a mysterious power emanating from this core, trying to destroy it. So, she waved her hand and used a Sealing Talisman to reinforce her control of this Sea of Consciousness.

She gazed at the core and did not recognize the specific runes. Furthermore, she even found it difficult to remember after removing her eyes for a few seconds.

'I don't have much time to study this rune, so let's use other means.'

Tong Ruobing summoned a unique talisman from her space ring: [Truth Talisman]. This talisman served the same purpose as divination, but the core runes used for its creation were not Fate Runes but Heaven Dao Runes, which involved knowledge and the path of omniscience.

[A talent that resulted from the mutation of the soul. It allows the user to create unique Puppet Cores.]

Tong Ruobing immediately frowned as the information received was too small.

'My intuition is telling me something greater is at play here, but I cannot pinpoint what it is,' she analyzed. She felt Chen Chen's change was more than meets the eye. Unfortunately, she did not have enough information to analyze or deduce this situation.

'The only thing I can summarize is Chen Chen's soul mutation allowed him to break the limitation of using clones for professions. However, such a limitation is one of the fundamental laws of Heaven and Earth. So, how could someone break it?

'Unless Heaven and Earth allow it. But who would do such a thing? Heavenly Dao? True Heavenly Dao? Or maybe, something even more?'

Tong Ruobing was momentarily frustrated by it. Her intuition and intelligence told her Chen Chen's secret was deeper than meets the eye. Sadly, she had no way of finding it.

Eastern Quadrant:

Wang Wei observed everything calmly. And even before Tong Ruobing, he discovered Chen Chen's soul mutation and talent. And he knew the scary part about this talent.

Chen Chen can create clones with the exact strength as him and control them with this Puppet Core. And these clones only require resources.

So, he imagined the scenario of Chen Chen after becoming a peak Paragon. As long as he has enough resources, he can create unlimited Paragon Tier Clones of himself.

'If such life forms could control one or two Chaos Worlds–even normal ones–they could manufacture Peak Paragons like they were cheap meat at a factory by using the resources of the entire world.'

Wang Wei squinted his eyes. Such Paragons will have the same mindset, which makes them easier to analyze and counter. However, their advantage is their number and ability to work together perfectly.

Such a race that only requires resources to manufacture powerhouses is a balance breaker, so they should not be tolerated. However, they are also the perfect war machines to face an enemy.'

Wang Wei understood why Grand Dao would allow their existence. He could foresee how, somewhere in Primordial Chaos, there are currently a few Source Chaos Worlds taken over by a species similar to Chen Chen.

They are mining the entire world's resources to create Paragon, Empyrean, and Emperor Tiers puppets in batches like a clone or robot factory.

'I understand why my future self would send Chen Chen in my direction. I will need such a race under my control for this battle,' he analyzed before sighing.

'I feel bad for such a race since their final fate will be destruction.'

Once the war between himself and Grand Dao ends, the fate of Chen Chen's new race will be extinct since they have already served their purpose. Or maybe, if Grand Dao is benevolent, it will restrict their natural talent and essentially nerf them. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}
