Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 986

Chapter 986 New Empress

986 New Empress

A month later, Wang Wei???who has not stopped doing push-ups???finally stopped as he noticed something. His eyes penetrated the endless distance as he gazed above the Great Talisman City.

Visions of different kinds appeared above the sky, alerting everyone worldwide. The process only lasted half an hour before ending. Immediately afterward, the Great Talisman City contacted the Heavenly Court.

They asked Wang Wei to use the Dream World for a world-wide announcement or event.

'Interesting,' thought Wang Wei as he remembered certain technology events that announced new creations, the most famous of which was the birth of the first smartphone. He did not hesitate to grant them permission.

As such, the next day, every Dream World member??? mortal and cultivators???had the choice to participate in this new announcement. Once the time arrived, Tong Ruobing showed up to show her latest development:

[Talisman Weapons]

Tong Ruobing had created a new path for Talisman Dao???creating weapons made entirely from talismans or runes. Under her presentation, people finally understood what talisman weapons were.

There were two types of this weapon: the first one was the weapons made of paper talismans that were perfectly combined together. This weapon was interesting because it was less expensive than regular weapons. The market was more toward loose cultivators in small numbers and toward large sects for mass buying.

These weapons were more powerful than regular or less powerful talismans but less potent than normal origin weapons. According to Tong Ruobing, these weapons are best used for large-scale war to replace low-tier talismans that have devastating effects when there were many.

In her announcement, Tong Ruobing showed the world a comparison. One image showed a small army detonating millions of Fire Talismans, while the other showed the same army doing the same thing with a million Paper Talisman Weapons.

The destructive nature of these weapons was exponentially higher than the talismans, while the cost was only slightly higher. Tong Ruobing also showed the crowd the destruction of using low-tier Origin Weapons and its costs. As expected, the destruction was only slightly higher while the price was astronomically higher.

Afterward, Tong Ruobing displayed the second type of Talisman Weapon???the one made entirely of runes. This type of weapon outclassed Origin Weapon in all categories, from the Profound Tier to the Quasi-Emperor Tier.

The reason is runes are the languages of Heaven and Earth, and when weapons are made entirely of them, they will be boosted by the power of Heaven and Earth, similar to how Primarchs are. However, the talisman weapon has a significant disadvantage in balancing out its power???it cannot last.

Even a Quasi-Emperor Tier Talisman Weapon will disappear and return to Heaven and Earth after a hundred thousand years.

Tong Ruobing did not hide such information and revealed everything. However, despite this weakness, countless people could not wait to get their hands on this new weapon. After all, cultivators naturally craved strength and power.

After this event, the Great Talisman City's Qi Luck and Destiny rose like a comet. Countless people rushed to their territory to buy a talisman weapon. Meanwhile, Tong Ruobing directly came to see Wang Wei.

"Why didn't you tell them the truth?" asked Wang Wei as he saw her in the garden.

"Don't tell me you're not interested in the Weapon Business," she asked back with a smile, and Wang Wei rolled his eyes. The truth of the matter is Rune Talisman Weapons can be fused to Origin Weapons, increasing the overall power of both. Such a fusion can even prolong the duration of these talisman weapons by at least 10%.

However, Tong Ruobing kept her mouth quiet because the rise of Talisman Weapon would deal a significant blow to the Origin Weapon Business and the Origin Weapon Mountain's destiny. Then, she can take this opportunity for her factions to get more control over the weapon industry worldwide and prepare until the news is revealed.

Of course, Wang Wei???who knew this truth???had the same plan, so he would not say anything.

"What brings you here? You should be preparing for your coronation?"

"I've brought news to you," said Tong Ruobing with a serious look.

"News about the Heavenly Court was leaked."

"It's much later than I anticipated," replied Wang Wei. He knew the Star Beast World was too connected to the Commerce Hub, so the information was impossible to hide for long.

"Has anyone else already become Heavenly Emperor?"

"As far as I know, the answer is no," replied Tong Ruobing.

"Right now, the upper echelons of the Commerce Hub have kept the news secrets while trying to get more information from our side. Many people have visited or secretly infiltrated the Star Beast World in the past few years."

Tong Ruobing secretly sighed. Mu Lei was in retreat, so she had to deal with everything in his absence.
