Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1436

Wang Wei entered the first level; he did not immediately rush to the higher hunting ground. He observed these Bestoward Monsters; most resembled the demon race, with a few humanoids. ’I thought the special rewards were deeply hidden inside these creatures, but it seemed I was wrong.’

He had observed countless of these creatures, but he saw no entrance token or life-increasing opportunities. Wang Wei locked to a monkey creature with flaming hands and slapped him into non-existence before checking his token. ’The weakest Empyrean only gives 0.1 points? Isn’t this a little too ruthless?’

The minimum cost to use any tower is 100 points, which means each participant must defeat 10,000 Empyreans for the lowest access level. However, if they are not a seeded player, they may not even have the opportunity to use them.

Wang Wei locked into a peak Empyrean monster that resembled a blue fox with eleven tails. He annihilated with a glance, and his token increased by one point. ’Truly pitiful," Wang Wei shook his head before directly heading to the second level. He observed briefly, trying to see if he could detect any creatures with hidden rewards.

’So, it’s a different reward mechanism, probably not something related to luck,’ Wang Wei analyzed. Everyone here could be called a darling of Heaven and Earth with ample luck and destiny. The trial would lose a tremendous amount of resources if they used luck as their reward mechanism.

Wang Wei locked onto a blue humanoid creature with enormous bat wings. He attacked it, killing it in ten moves. ’1000 points? Are they trying to encourage participants to hunt above their realm?’ These geniuses can hunt Paragon Monsters with a base 90% realm using Paragon Artifacts and Talismans.

However, the success rate is not high unless they partner up. Additionally, overused and prolonged use of Paragon Artifacts will corrode their Dao. People from powerful factions will have Supreme Chaos Artifacts with lower risks, neutral Paragon Artifacts with less corrosion, or specially tailored artifacts with similar effects.

Regardless, using these artifacts will have side effects that can be detrimental to the Paragon Tribulation, not to mention how draining they are to the soul. Luckily, Wang Wei did not have these issues.

He looked around, searching for his next target. His Taboo Battle Realm strength was previously 94% with a temporary 95% in desperate mode, but after acquiring that technique, he has perfected his application of all his techniques after studying them on a micro-level, he now could display 95% strength normally and reach 96% point in a desperate situation.

’Let’s compare how many points each monster will give and the time it takes to defeat them,’ Wang Wei planned. It took him a few hours, but he had the data, which indicated that hunting creatures between the Second and Third Heaven was better since it took too long to defeat Fifth and Sixth Heaven creatures.

"Let the hunt begin," Wang Wei muttered before starting a massacre. He did not stop for five straight years before checking on his points and ranking: "Huh? I’m only ranked second?" At the very top of the list were the bold characters:

[1st. Tian Xuan, True Origin World, Points:...]

’Tian Xuan? Chosen by Heaven? The name is a little on the nose, but I wonder whether it’s his real name or the title he chose,’ Wang Wei thought. That didn’t really matter, so he didn’t pay too much attention to the name. ’He’s only a few thousand points ahead, so if I speed up, I should surpass him. However, as long as I leave this area, he’ll soon overtake me. I can’t have that.’

Wang Wei waved his hand to summon a dozen bodies from his meat puppet pools. He injected them with his spirit particles before granting each of them Paragon Artifacts. "Go and hunt," he ordered. With a disposal team under his command, the speed at which Wang Wei racked up points drastically increased.

Tian Xuan immediately noticed this change and increased his pace, too. Unfortunately, whatever method he used was not as effective as Wang Wei’s meat puppets. After fifteen years of hunting, Wang Wei felt he had enough of a lead to head to the towers.

…

Time flies when you focus intensely on a task. As soon as the hundredth mark arrived, he received notifications he was no longer the number-one and had to vacate the [First Room]. Wang Wei chose to leave the tower, meaning he did not bump into Tian Xuan.

The first thing he did outside was send more meat puppets to hunt since the previous batch had already collapsed. He hadn’t received any reports from Red Mask or Yan Jie, so he flew directly into the Essence Tower and took the first room. _{ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com}

"Damn it, damn it, damn it to hell — I’ve been hunting for over a hundred years, and I’m still ranked third," Ji Changming cursed as he waved his hand to annihilate the mountain range before him. However, such destruction could not quell his wrath, so he attacked more ferociously. Unfortunately for him, the trial greatly limited the destructive capabilities of even peak Boundless Paragons, let alone him.

"Don’t these bastards know who I am?" he yelled as he continued his path of destruction. Ji Changming was already on edge when he realized he might fail his mission to get information about the Eternal Ascension World due to a stupid lock on these people’s bodies and souls, but now, he was humiliated by ranking third.

How can he explain this failure to the Palace Master? How much jeering will he receive from his clan members and competitors? He could not accept this. No, he refused to accept.

As he floated in the void with his face red out of anger, Ji Changming suddenly opened his palm to receive a talisman. "The Plum Daoist entered the Essence Tower? Damn it, I told these idiots to keep an eye out when he enters the hunting area. Why are they sending me such useless news?’ He crushed the talisman, deepening the red veins on his neck in the process.

"I can’t allow this humiliation," Ji Changming said through gritted teeth. He flew directly to the Battle Tower. The only way to wash away this shame is to claim the top spot in the tower and challenge those two. If possible, it would be best for them to agree to a life-and-death battle so he can kill them.
