Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

[Five Elements Divine Eyes]

The five elements are the foundation of all things. Thus, they revealed the truth of the universe. Five Feathers created this detecting ability with this concept. However, since it was based on the five elements, the technique did not work as she anticipated. Regardless, she noticed something. After trying to use her technique, there seems to be additional pressure on Wang Wei's soul/spirit.

'I see. The information said he cultivated Order-Disorder Dao, so that's how he did it. However, it seems he had to use a severe price to remove all abilities regarding the Five Elements,' Five Feathers analyzed.

'In that case, I should continue to use my ability to put pressure on him until he cannot hold on anymore. In the meantime, I need to find another means of fighting.'

Boom!

Wang Wei's staff attacked Five Feathers with another critical hit. This attack was not as severe as the first one, meaning it required less time to calculate and placed less pressure on her already weakened mind. However, Five Feathers casually waved her hand to create countless universes to serve as shields. With her Grandmist Wheel, this was a piece of cake. Although she could not summon Creation Lives from her main body, she could still use the Grandmist Qi.

Wang Wei's attack easily crushed these universes, but they delayed enough time for Five Feathers to evade.

'I could use my Sub-Daos, but they are only in the Empyrean Realm,' Five Feathers thought. She was already struggling with her own Dao, so these sub-Daos would be even more useless. Even if she used her soul to boost them to Paragon Tier, they would not be as effective.

'In that case, this is the only way to continue this fight,' Five Feathers thought while wishing she had brought any Paragon artifact. Even without her proving Dao artifact, she could forcefully break that Order Dao Spell.

While evading these attacks, she raised her hand, and a phantom of a world manifested behind her. Then, with a downward motion, a black cloud condensed above the sky before releasing a pool of thunder on her opponent.

Wang Wei's lips twitched when he saw that phantom. He had long known that fighting Paragons was something else. These people simply had too many means, making battles at that level extremely complex. One of these many means was Qi/energy.

A Paragon's soul is so powerful, so it's not hard to imagine how much energy from the Source Qi Space they could control. Most Paragons will refine a unique mark they leave in the Source Qi Space, making it easier to forcefully draw energy from that place and use it. There are even techniques that imitate the Immortal Mansion of Immortal Kings, allowing the Paragons to store a scary amount of energy to use for a later date.

Wang Wei has a Paragon Soul, so he also prepared to refine his Source Qi Mark before confronting the parasites. However, he was forced into this mess before he was completely prepared. He calmed down while thinking of a plan.

He smashed the lightning coming his way, but the dispersed power suddenly turned into sharp blades, to his slight surprise. Wang Wei reacted swiftly, but two of the blades pierced his shoulder and tight right. He responded in time to use his True Will to protect his soul.

'She must have spent some time studying Immortal Spells,' Wang Wei analyzed. Such expert use of Qi proved Five Feathers's accomplishment. However, this should not be surprising since she had most of the world's resources at her disposal. Considering this fact, her achievements would be less impressive since someone like himself could have done more.

Wang Wei sighed as he dealt with the constant bombardment of these Qi Spells. This fight further proved to him that the older a Paragon, the harder they are to deal with. For example, Wu Hong and Qiyuan should have their own Source Qi Mark and energy reserve. But, given how far apart they've achieved the realm of Paragon, could anyone fathom how much more energy Qiyuan has in reserve? Maybe Wu Hong has found a way to fill that gap, but that method would never be simple. Then, there is the possibility that Qiyuan also has unique methods for amassing Qi.

'These old timers do not give people the opportunity to rise,' Wang Wei complained before focusing on this fight, thinking about how to deal with the situation.

'My Qi Flower has a high affinity with the Source Qi Space, so I could use it to gather energy quickly.' Wang Wei had already planned for his ability to be the way he makes up the gap with these old cultivators, especially after his ability evolves once he becomes a Paragon.

'With the flower as a medium and my soul, I won't lose much to this projection regarding Qi control. I can even create the Qi Spell versions of my Dao techniques and superimpose their strength.'

Such a method is one way that top Paragons increase their battle strength, which essentially requires them to incorporate the Immortal Path into the Emperor Path. This ability is one of the main reasons the Immortal Path had declined entirely. Qi was supposed to be their thing, but Paragon took it and did it better than them.

Wang Wei internally shook his head; he did not want to do that. He realized something: continuing fighting would reveal his strength and trump cards. The final result will be to destroy one of the parasites's projections. Of course, this will affect Five Feathers's main body, but such an injury is insignificant. With all the resources she had at her disposal, it won't take long to recover.

'If I want to reveal a trump card, it must be for a genuine injury.' He immediately brewed a plan for how to end this fight. Before coming, he had a plan that involved a sneak attack with the other Time Clone, but he changed his mind.

Then, Wang Wei became passive in the fight. He kept evading and defending. Additionally, his face becomes paler and paler as time passes. At some point, Wang Wei summoned his time clone. The thing did sneak attack Five Feathers, but only her shoulder was broken before she repelled the clone.

Five Feathers had some reservations after seeing another clone with a Paragon Artifact. However, she realized her worries were for nothing. With Wang Wei's current situation, controlling a second Paragon Artifact would only put more pressure on his mind. So, she continued using her Five Element Dao to force the Order Spell Backlash.

Boom!

Five Feathers was about to use a terrifying light spell to end the struggle of these two vermin. A sudden change occurred between Heaven and Earth, and a vision spread to every corner of the Eternal Ascension World. There were golden lotuses, sounds of the Dao, sacred beasts flying, sages reciting the sutra, immortals showing their loftiness, and even Emperors showing their approval.

Five Feathers's face became ugly. Any sentient being who saw this vision instantly knew why it was happening.

Wang Wei suddenly laughed. Although his voice was slightly weak, Five Feathers easily heard it. "Paragons are inherently noble creatures since they are the embodiment of the Dao. The death of even the weakest of them will make Heaven and Earth mourn for days. However, you people have done so much that once you die, heaven and earth celebrate instead."

Five Feathers gritted her teeth and clenched her hand. That vision was a reminder of her future. Once she dies, Heaven and Earth will not mourn her; they will celebrate instead. Countless people will curse her existence and even wish to dance on her grave. Her infamy will be rewritten in the annals of history.

"What's with that reaction?" Wang Wei chuckled. "Shouldn't you have expected this to be your outcome? Don't tell me you expected some kind of dignity upon your death after everything you've done?"

"Stop talking all this nonsense," Five Feathers sneered. "I only need not to die."

"Not dying?" Wang Wei looked at her incredulously. "Don't you understand that your fate has long been sealed? Had you spent all these years cultivating and raising your strength to the pinnacle of the Paragon Realm, you might have a chance at surviving by running away.

"But now?" Wang Wei shook his head. "Even if I didn't have the destiny to eliminate all of you, once these paragons from Limbo return, you wouldn't survive. And even if they never return, do you think any of those two suns will keep you guys alive once you're no longer helpful?"

"You don't know what you're talking about," Five Feathers said with a terrifying killing intent.

"Is that so?" Wang Wei smiled. However, it was not the charming kind, but the kind that made people wish they could beat him up.

"Maitreya already finds you guys useless and doesn't need you anymore, so she'll definitely eliminate you once she has the chance. Supreme Unity is cold and indifferent, meaning it's only a matter of time before he sacrifices you for his gain.

"So, as I said, your fate was sealed the moment you accepted their offers to become this world's ruler."
