Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1450

Chapter 1450 Tian Xuan vs Ji Chengming (III)

'I guess even being the Son of Grand Dao does not mean a life of leisure and happiness,' Wang Wei thought after peeping into Tian Xuan's spiritual dimension. 'That woman in black — did Grand Dao choose her as Tian Xuan's wife to counter my relationship with Wu Hong?'

Wu Hong has, is, and will always be one of Wang Wei's greatest strengths, so it made sense Grand Dao would pair Tian Xuan with someone of similar ability to prevent him from being tag-teamed by the two.

'If that is true, then she must be extremely talented and powerful for Grand Dao to choose her as someone that counters my Wu Hong,' Wang Wei thought, remembering her name since she would be an enemy.

'Hmm?' Wang Wei muttered when he saw the horror world Ji Chengming created. 'I'm envious of this guy's background.' He already realized that all of Ji Chengming's techniques were the cream of the cream, and it was not entirely due to his talent. The primary source of their powers and uniqueness is that he created these techniques after studying other perfect techniques.

A transcendent from the Ji Clan must have perfected countless techniques before allowing their descendants or members to use them. Using that solid foundation, the Ji Clan and palace members have superb techniques of their own because they can stand on the shoulders of giants.

'That power? Heavenly Dao? Is the tide about to change?' Wang Wei thought.

. . .

A sword enveloped by black flame appeared in Tian Xuan's hand, and he raised it above his head. The sword suddenly grew in size, reaching a length of more than 20 meters and a girth of 5 meters. The aura of destruction released from Tian Xuan's body was too intense and too abnormal, puzzling many participants. Only a few could detect this was not a regular attack using purely his Dao, but one boosted by a special Destruction Qi from the Source Qi Space.

As that terrifying flame sword descended, Ji Chengming's demeanor changed for the first time since the battle started. His Spirit of Fortitude appeared before him, releasing an intense light from his shield.

Sadly, it barely worked. Ji Chengming's clothes had countless holes and tears, but he only suffered some minor scratches to his skin. However, this was not his only loss. His Spirit and three souls were annihilated. The way his technique worked was these souls and spirits were immortals as long as he was breathing.

However, Tian Xuan's attack destroyed these techniques; in other words, Ji Chengming would need to re-learn or re-create these techniques to use them again — that's how thorough the destruction was.

"You bastard!" he snarled, but Tian Xuan paid him no mind. A dark green silk materialized around his flaming sword as he filtered the purest form of time energy from the River of Time and manipulated it to embody all destructive aspects of the concept of time.

Tian Xuan swung his sword again, and this time around, his attack was even faster. The Time Dao he added allowed his attack to manipulate the time at which this attack would hit, arriving at a much earlier time than it would have. _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

[Virtue Spirit: Charity]

A beautiful woman manifested before Ji Chengming as his face contorted. The woman was dressed in all white, with her black calmly lying on her back. Her face was youthful and pure, and her body emanated a faint golden light. Anyone looking at her would instantly think she was a Saint walking the mortal world.

However, this woman's purpose was far from saintly. Charity means having a generous heart and giving to others, especially the less fortunate. But what this woman was giving to people was all the damage Tian Xuan was taking. To cultivate this technique, Ji Chengming has already chosen countless "benefactors" to share the damage for him.

'What a bunch of waste,' Ji Chengming thought with gritted teeth. All the cannon fodders he selected died with this attack, along with his Charity Spirit. He glanced at his missing arm, and his anger elevated to a higher level.

[Soul Switch]

Ji Chengming made a calculated gamble. He bet that if he swished his body with Tian Xuan, his mastery of Soul Dao would mean he would have a higher chance of controlling the latter's body before Tian Xuan could control his. Then, he can use the latter's attack and power against him.

Ji Chengming's plan worked. In a matter of milliseconds, he forcefully took control of Tian Xuan's body and forced it to continue the attack. Meanwhile, his opponent had probably barely reacted to the sudden change.

The sword hit its target, releasing a massive dark energy wave that annihilated everything in its path, including this tower's reinforced space-time barriers. For a brief moment, void tears leading outside appeared at the center of that explosion. The spirit had to work overtime to reinforce this arena since they did not expect this level of pure destructive power.

"Nice try," said a cold voice before Tian Xuan's perfectly intact soul appeared without Ji Chengming's body. "Unfortunately for you, I am destruction."

His soul released a devouring power that attracted the armor, the sword, and all the destruction energy to condense a new body, leaving Ji Chengming's soul alone and open. Tian Xuan raised his sword and summoned another power source that materialized as a dark purple orb that fused with his flaming sword: the power of Primordial Chaos.

Ji Chengming looked at the black and white flaming sword with purple and green adornment, and his face turned ugly. The power of that attack had reached the peak of the Paragon Realm, meaning the chances of surviving were extremely low.

'None of my souls or spirits can help in this situation,' he analyzed. Despite death approaching, Ji Chengming remains calm. In his life, he has only felt fear once, and that was when he met the Clan's Supreme Elder. This situation did not make him fear; instead, he felt frustrated.

'Do I have no choice but to use that method?'
