Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 806

Chen Chen looked at the place where Tong Ruobing's last trace existed a few seconds ago. He waited a while to see whether something would happen.

"Is this…the end?" he muttered, his voice no longer cold and indifferent. His current self could not identify his emotions, but it was a mixture of sadness, relief, regret, and longing.

He sent a few more clones to check the area while ordering others to use Divination Artifacts to detect whether she was alive or faking it. And when the result arrived, Chen Chen was quiet.

Then, he started laughing like a maniac; his cold voice was incredibly eerie as it echoed throughout the city. Chen Chen felt he wanted to cry, but his body was no longer capable of producing and releasing tears.

As such, his tearless crying or laughing made him even more maniacal. Then, he stopped as his facial expression kept changing; the rapid process made him look contorted, as if someone had purposely deformed his face as a form of punishment.

A few minutes later, he returned to his emotionless state.

"The last flaw of Flesh Lifeforms was removed. Now, I can focus on cultivating and producing."

Chen Chen felt he had a mission to reproduce as many puppets as possible, and they had to be as strong as possible. And now that he removed his obsession and sublimated his state of mind, he can focus on this sacred mission.

[Sigh]

Chen Chen suddenly heard a deep and powerful sigh, full of disappointment and regret. He looked around and used all his detective measures, but he could not find anything.

'Is my Auditory System malfunctioning? Is it time to remodel the main body?' he thought. This was his first instinct before changing his idea after checking his body–there was nothing wrong with it.

Chen Chen frowned, thinking about what was going on. Then, he sensed a fluctuation and gazed outside the city. He saw a talisman suddenly manifest, and Tong Ruobing's body appeared.

"That should not be possible," he muttered calmly, with no fluctuation in his voice and tone. "I checked thoroughly. How could she still be alive?"

While Chen Chen was baffled, Tong Ruobing was feeling similar emotions. To be precise, she was wary.

'The Death Substitute Talisman should have been activated immediately,' she analyzed. Tong Ruobing knew the danger of this battle, so she spent a great deal of time refining talismans to save her life. However, something went wrong.

'Someone tampered with it, delaying my revival by a few minutes.'

Her expression became ugly; she knew only two people with the strength to do such a thing while being utterly undetectable. And these two both cultivated the Dao of Life and Death.

'It should be him,' she thought, thinking about the handsome guy with gray hair and a reassuring smile that hid true terror.

'For Dao Overlords, all sentient beings between Heaven and Earth can turn into their chess pieces.'

Tong Ruobing knew the importance of information, so she did her best to gather information on Wang Wei and Di Tian so she knew about the Supreme Outlaw Trials.

She even communicated with the Great Talisman City's Ancestors to learn more knowledge. They warned her to be extremely careful when dealing with Dao Overlords.

According to the Ancestors, this title is not just a symbol of intelligence and resourcefulness. Throughout Heaven and Earth, there are many people whose intelligence is on par with Dao Overlords, but it does not mean they are one.

A Dao Overlord represents someone who knows their mind and its flaws and can control it and not allow other people to use it against them. It is someone of extreme Willpower who will not give up until they breathe their last breath.

Dao Overlords are the ultimate manipulators.

According to tests she and her ancestors made, Tong Ruobing knew her intelligence was equal to a Dao Lord, with a talent for Charisma, as she has a natural affinity with people, easily getting them to trust her.

However, she is still a long way compared to Dao Overlord.

'I was right–there is something special about Chen Chen. Otherwise, he would never pay attention to him.'

Tong Ruobing immediately felt this place was about to become the center of a tremendous storm. And now, she needed to consider whether to stay or leave.

'There is no point in staying here: the strength difference between us has already eliminated me from this confrontation,' she analyzed. 'However, I am not one to suffer without getting some benefit.'

[Five Elements Cutting Wheel Talisman]

Five colors–blue, red, yellow, green, and white–appeared before her before fusing into a wheel with five colors. The wheel rotated at an alarming speed before rushing toward the city.

The spinning wheel cut through the city's protective array like a sharp metal sword cutting wood. Then, it did the same for the Chen Chen puppets trying to get in its way.

Swish!

The wheel cut the city in two, revealing the core where the main Chen Chen resided. However, Tong Ruobing did not even glance at him since she knew this guy's fate might be miserable.

With a wave of her hand, she placed half of the city into her space ring; this was great material for talismans or even refining an Immortal Weapon.
