Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1416 Asking Grand Dao

Chapter 1416  Asking Grand Dao

After receiving the resources, the first thing Wang Wei did was to re-install the formation on the [Transcending Fate Mountain]. Although he trusted the sect, it was not to this level. Once that was done, he released Wang Qi and the others and provided them with the proper identity to allow them access to certain things in the sect. Only after dealing with these mundane tasks did Wang Wei finally enter his retreat.

"Let's get this over with," Wang Wei muttered. His first task was not to understand the lock. Instead, he used his ability acquired for his achievement as an Immeasurable Emperor, which allowed him to communicate with Grand Dao.

Wang Wei's spirit left his body before founding himself in this infinitely white space with one towering eyeball glancing at him. He immediately felt an immense pressure on his soul. Regular people cannot directly face Grand Dao's presence without any repercussions.

"What is your request?" Cold and indifferent words entered Wang Wei's mind; there was no source of sound or any fluctuation — these words just appeared in his mind as if they were a natural part of his memories. Wang Wei frowned before returning to normal:

"My request is simple: I need a karma-free cultivation technique that allows me to see my [Existence Blueprint]. The technique cannot be directly implanted in my mind nor use an information talisman. It must be written in books in the common Dao Language of the Chaos Universe, and it has to be a technique that my current self can cultivate."

Wang Wei has been thinking about his Fate Seed Status for a while and concluded instead of asking Grand Dao for help, it would be better to rely on himself. So, he asked for a way to detect his status as a Fate Seed so he could devise a way to erase it himself.

Grand Dao looked at him briefly before disappearing, leaving a world of books. Wang Wei checked, and the number of books could fill the entire observable universe — that's how many they were. He then immediately checked the content:

"Everything is labeled accordingly," Wang Wei commented. He could have been more specific but left many loopholes just to see whether Grand Dao would play with his request, and based on how it reacted, Wang Wei could deduce how trustworthy this request was.

"So far, there doesn't seem to be any problem," Wang Wei muttered. He will have his wife and many other people check this technique, but there doesn't seem to be an issue as of now. He put the books away before continuing his retreat.

He did not hesitate to take the Mind Dilation Pill and the other soul nourishment pills; he stretched his mind dilation to the limit, achieving a level of 1 second outside equal to 10,000 yuan epochs in his mind. Then, he started comprehending the essence of the lock. Over the years, he tried to learn it and had some success, but the nature of the information inside reached the level of transcendence, meaning it required a lot of talent and time to understand truly.

Time felt endless, and if not for the fact he was focusing on a task, Wang Wei had a feeling he might have gone mad after experiencing so long in such a short period. It did not help that his soul started hurting after fifty years had passed on the outside.

Regardless of the pain he was experiencing, Wang Wei pushed himself to understand the nature of the lock and found a way to break it. Once that was done, he took some time to plan out his next moves before finally focusing on Grand Dao's technique.

Wang Wei ensured he knew this technique from front to back. In fact, during his long cultivation journey, he has never spent so much time on one method. The amount of time he spent understanding that thing was longer than he had been cultivating up until now.

'Everything makes up our blueprint,' Wang Wei thought as he looked up at the white space with dots, lines, and shapes. 'Our memories, actions, achievements, past life, luck, and even information we absorb from the environment will affect our [Existence] in one way or another.' The blueprint has elevated Wang Wei's understanding of [Existence] to a higher level.

His move and he soon found what he wanted — the part of his [Existence] influenced by fate. Wang Wei had to comb through much information and even experimented on himself before he found a few line groups that did not belong.

'I should have done this sooner,' Wang Wei thought as he had just learned the higher his cultivation realm, the harder it is to remove the influence of these things from his life. "Moreover, will it be that easy to remove this seed title? I doubt it." He shook his head, not focusing on the difficulty of the task. Now that he had identified the problem, it was time to solve it.

So, Wang Wei did not immediately end this retreat but spent a little more time redefining his plan before he finally left his exit. The first thing he did was to swallow a few pills to heal and soothe his soul. The effects were immediate, but Wang Wei soon noticed his soul was growing. The constant pressure from this pill and the act of healing actually increase his soul's quality and quantity.

He reacted swiftly by sealing the growth of his soul, ensuring he could use it for later. "That was closed," Wang Wei muttered. He was still living under the lock's effect, so this growth could have cost him his life. While healing, Wang Wei summoned Red Mask.

"I know only 300 years have passed, but how are things proceeding?"

"Better than I expected," Red Mask responded. "The Xie Clan has been helping us integrate — they have even handed us countless resources."

"Oh?"

"They are responsible for the entire sect's spy network," Red Mask added. "So, their help has been more than valuable, but I just wonder why they are doing it."

"It's probably an order from Shadow Ruler," Wang Wei responded. Qiyuan was already preparing to hand over the reign, so it made sense for the others to do the same. "Did you discover why these two families are hostile to me?"

"The Zhou Clan had a Legacy Disciple that wanted the Primal Seed Position," Red Mask explained. "Sadly, he embarrassed himself during the Seed Trial. They are not happy you received the position without passing the trial."

"If that's their only problem, they will be easy to pacify," Wang Wei nodded. Qiyuan has already hinted to him that the unity of the sect must be preserved to ensure their prosperity in the upcoming Transcendent Era, so Wang Wei's goal is to make these families submit willingly under his command.

"What's the Su Clan's problem?"

"Their issue stems from the [12 Fiendgod Revolution Body]," Red Mask replied. "They are dissatisfied that only the three main clans have a Human Fiendgod Bloodline." Wang Wei squinted his eyes.

"In fact, all the other clans and Yu Cai from the sectarian faction are also dissatisfied. However, they understood this issue required all the ancestors to decide, so they kept quiet. The Su Matriarch is a hot-head, so she did not keep quiet and complain nonstop about this issue."

"I can't believe I've been causing trouble before even ascending," Wang Wei chuckled.

"Lord, what are you going to do?"

"The other clans's approach is right — this is a matter that needs the Ancestor's authority," Wang Wei replied. He had no problem with the technique being spread. Still, there needed to be rules and restrictions to prevent other people from stealing his idea and to prevent the sect from turning into a bloodline faction that relied entirely on their blood for progress. His current strength and prestige were insufficient to make these rules, so he had to wait for the ancestors' return and discuss this issue.

"What should we do about these families?" Red Mask asked.

"Leave the Su Clan alone since they are only talking," Wang Wei replied. "As for the Zhou Clan? I'll take the test in a while to shut them up."

"As you wish," Red Mask nodded. "Do you have any other instructions?"

"No, you can continue your work." Wang Wei dismissed her before contacting Sect Master Yu Cai and Great Elder Yan Xue.

"You lasted 300 years — such willpower," Yu Cai said as he shook his head to show his envy.

"The world seems peaceful and quiet now, but all know this is just the surface," Wang Wei replied.

"What can we do for you?" Yan Xue asked. The elderly woman understood they were now at a tipping point in history and their actions would have severe consequences.

"I need you to do three things for me," Wang Wei said. "The first of which is simple: I only want to take the Primal Seed Trial." Yu Cai and Yan Xue looked at each other and understood, so they nodded without saying another word.

"The second thing is about …"
