Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1231 The Deployment Plan



Chapter 1231  The Deployment Plan



'Could this place be, as the rumors said, under the influence of Heavenly Dao, which may thus affect even Half-Step Transcendent?' Wang Wei did not like this line of thought since that would indicate that Heavenly Dao was a much more powerful transcendent than Supreme Unity and Maitreya. However, if that were the case, how could it allow Supreme Unity to take its power?


'Unless achieving Half-Step Transcendence was a standard method allowed by Grand Dao, thus granting sentient beings a chance at controlling Heavenly Dao,' Wang Wei analyzed. He grunted softly, still not liking this explanation.


'Another possibility is that Heavenly Dao used Grand Dao's power to create the Lawless Zone, which is why its effect may still apply to these beings. However, why would it have to do so? Balancing the distribution of resources in the world is not a good enough reason to involve Grand Dao. So, is there a deeper secret about this place, or is my theory completely wrong?'


Wang Wei wanted answers, but he also realized that thinking alone would not help. Once he's done conquering this place, he might have to take some time and investigate its secret.


"I have one more thing to ask you about," Wang Wei asked.


"I'm listening," Mongke nodded.


"Do you know whether the Barbarian Race has an unknown origin?"


Mongke stopped drinking and looked at him.


"What is it? Did I mention a sensitive topic?"


"Kind of," Mongke replied before finishing his wine bowl. "We suffer much discrimination because of our culture and language, especially in the early days of our history. Yet, Buddhism is perfectly fine despite also being an anomaly."


Wang Wei understood what he meant. Buddhism's name and culture still retain aspects of their origin in India, meaning they are also an anomaly in the universe. However, they are widely accepted and even worshiped across the Chaos Universe.


"Your race should have been curious about your origin. Didn't you try to explore it?" Wang Wei asked.


"We did," Mongke replied. The result was that we were born in the Eternal Ascension World, just like everyone else, and our culture diverged from others at a certain point in our early history."


"Meaning there was no anomaly from your development? You just naturally evolved such a culture?"


"Correct," Mongke nodded.


"Another possibility is a higher power influenced you without even noticing it," Wang Wei nodded, and Mongke gave him a praising look.


"We deduce the same thing after realizing that most of our brethren from other Source Chaos Worlds evolved in the same way; they developed the same culture with minor changes in languages and so on."


Wang Wei pondered about the situation. He was intrigued by Buddhism and the Barbarian Race's origin, believing them to have some connection with the Prehistoric World in one form or another. He also thinks Grand Dao is involved in this, and probably the cause of the uniqueness of these two groups.


"Well, thank you for answering my questions." Wang Wei knew he wouldn't get an answer about these things until he was a Half-Step Transcendent. By then, it might not even be difficult as asking Hongjun directly might get him answers.


"It's fine, but can I ask you a question," Mongke nodded.


"By all means."


"Why is your Battle IQ so high?" Mongke asked. "The way you fight is not the result of talent alone. It's more like you've experienced trillions of battles, but from what I can detect, you're a very young Empyrean — maybe too young. So, how is that possible?"


"Quite observant," Wang Wei praised as he raised his hand to condense a talisman. "Consider a meeting gift."


"Dream Combat?" Mongke uttered after detecting the information inside. He closed his eyes before opening them five minutes later. The big man did not hide his excitement. "Thank you," he said sincerely. He could not fight and learn at all times, even when awake or doing menial tasks—there was no greater gift for someone like him.


"No problem."


"I did not expect someone else to love battle as much as I do," Mongke added. Such a brilliant technique—why didn't I think of it before?"


"I wasn't the sole creator, but we indeed enjoy the art of combat, but I doubt as devoted as you."


"Oh, there is someone else? Can I meet him?"


"He's still in the lower dimension and probably won't ascend for a while."


"That's a shame. However, when he does, please notify me, and I will hold a grand banquet to welcome him."


"No problem."


The two chatted briefly before ending this meeting. The outside world was shocked by the Barbarian King's defeat, but the big man lay on his huge bed beside his wife. "So, what do you think?"


"Only someone chosen by fate with such tremendous destiny could defeat you," Dulgun nodded. Then, she asked: "You said his name was Wang Wei?"


"Yes, why?"


"Do you think he's from that Wang Clan?"


"Hmm, it's possible, but Wang is such a common surname."


"What do you think is most likely? That he's an extremely talented individual with great destiny with that surname or chosen for that destiny because he's from that Wang Clan?"


"You have a point," Mongke nodded. "If that's the case, our alliance doesn't have to end once we defeat these parasites. We can extend it to involve our respective factions."


"Are you sure about this?" Dulgun asked. "You should understand how our Elders value their neutrality."


"Many people believe that once these parasites are removed, the world will return to the era of the [Thirteen Overlords]. However, these people have not figured out that the two suns have broken the previous situation.


"The upcoming era is not a return of the old time, but a new competition to re-establish the game board. Whoever can reach the same realm as them will become the new chess player," Mongke said.


"But can anyone achieve such a cultivation realm?" Dulgun asked, not hiding her certainty. These two seemed to be outliers." So many Paragons and top powerhouse from this world participated in that event, but only those two survived.


"Being the first to do something is usually the hardest part," Mongke commented. "Now that everyone knows it is possible and can even observe the person who succeeded, it will become easier to recreate. More importantly, I don't believe all those participants who died in that event did learn or bring something with them from the experience." Mongke had to think of his future. Once he perfected his Body-Will Fusion, he can open the Gate of Flesh to become an Inextinguishable Paragon. With his talent and the support of the clan, he had complete confidence in attaining the title of a [Primal Paragon]. So, his vision must be wider and look beyond the Paragon Realm.


"You have a point," Dulgunn nodded. The two discussed their future in the night, and the next morning, they started the negotiation. To their surprise, Wang Wei was not strict or difficult about the binding contract they needed to sign, making Dulgun — the master negotiator — suddenly feel at a loss given how easy and smooth the entire thing was.


Wang Wei could discern Mongke's personality, and he was the loyal and honorable kind who would keep his word even if it meant his death. As such, he showed his charisma through this discussion by being lenient; this was an excellent way to show his trust and create a better relationship with such a talent as Mongke.


"Since everything has been negotiated, let's discuss our next step," Wang Wei declared. The three of them pooled their knowledge together about this place before laying out a plan to sweep the place. The simplification of the plan was that Wang Wei would deal with the Pavillions while Mongke dealt with the Demons. Then, they worked together to take down the gangs before facing the Ruthless King and the Hidden Master.


Once everyone had their roles, they deployed. Wang Wei went to the Dark Cloud Pavilion, Mongke visited the Poison Demon, and his main wife — Dulgun — who was an Everlasting Empyrean with a cultivation of 73% — went to see the Puppet Demon.


Wang Wei secretly returned to the Dark Cloud Pavilion's city, and a few people were already waiting for him. He calmly looked at these assassins that he took control of.


"What is the situation?"


"We've taken control over the Law Enforcement Hall," replied the petite assassin. "However, the most powerful members of the pavilion are the Dark Mist Assassins, and they only served the Pavilion Master. We could not even come close to them, let alone try to control them."


"You did more than enough," Wang Wei nodded. "Anything else to report?"


"The Pavilion Master may have been suspicious of our movements."


"May?"


"He has always been suspicious by nature," the petite woman explained. Suspicions came with this job, so that was not surprising. "However, lately, he has been ramping it up a little."


"It's fine if he's suspicious since we can use that against him." The only problem Wang Wei feared was the Pavilion Master to hide and now show his face, forcing him to waste time and search for him.
