Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

chapter-343
After instructing the Fate Shadow Guard on their next mission, Li Jun looked at the other people and said: "Alright, let's go deal with the Death God's Heavenly Abode."
Soon, three of them arrived in the abode, floating above the second continent. Along with them was the Death God. However, his eyes seemed blank and unresponsive.
"Did you have any problem refining him into a puppet?" asked Li Jun.
"At first, he resisted. However, after Liling refined a Heaven Grade Soul Refining Pill, the process became much simpler."
"Alright, let's begin."Nodding her head, Wang Ju began to control the Death God. Countless clones of him dressed in all black armor that covered their faces appeared. Then, the armored clones scattered in different places of the continent.
All-Father City is one the largest city on this continent. It has a population of 40 million people; all of them mortals who are fanatic believers of the Death God.
Today was supposed to be another regular day for this city, with people going on with their daily life. However, something unexpected occurred. The largest temple in the city suddenly shone with brilliant golden light before rushing into the sky.
Every single individual could feel that golden light, so they stopped what they were doing and gathered in the streets.
Then, all the citizens saw a man or individual clad in all black armor. For a brief moment, they were all shocked, then every single one of them immediately knelt on the group saying:
"Welcome the Messenger."
The voice of all 40 million people echoed in the sky, forming a beautiful sound; the sound of oppression."Where is the City Lord?" asked the armored clone.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man dressed in a plain black robe slowly stood up amongst the large crows. Since he was the only one standing, he was easily noticeable.
"S-S-Sir Messenger, I am the current City Lord."
The armored clone waved his hand and the middle-aged man suddenly appeared in the sky, floating in the air. Although he was really scared for fear of falling down, however, his fear was soon replaced by the awe of the Messenger and the Death God behind him.
"Spread the words. The Death God is going through ascension to achieve transcendence and control the power of fate. As such, his image will change.
"By his order, all the statue of him will have a blank face for now until the ascension process is completed."
The City Lord was momentarily shocked before a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. Their God was already mighty enough, but now he was going through an ascension and becoming more powerful. He could not hide his joy.
And not just him. All the mortals in the city who heard the messenger's words clearly felt the same way as the City Lord.
Immediately after being placed on the ground, the City Lord gathered the finest craftsmen of the city to renovate both the temple and the statue of the Death God based on the design of the messenger.
This City Lord was not the only one doing this. Across all the cities, towns, and villages on this continent, messengers appeared to spread the decree of the Death God.
A festival was held to celebrate the rise of the Death God. From this day one, the people of this continent celebrated a new holiday: Ascension Day.
In the sky, Li Jun and the others watched all of this with a calm look. He then looked at Wang Ju and said: "Continue with the next step."
A white shield suddenly appeared to surround the three, then, they watched as time began to accelerate; it was like they were fast-forwarding a recording television shows.
Everyone and everything seemed to be moving so fast that it became blurred. Then, everything stopped.
"How long has it been?"
"300 years," replied Wang Ju.
"This should be plenty of time for them not only to procreate and increase population but also forget the real face of the Death God."
Li Jun looked at the Death God. Right now, he was in a terrible situation. His hair was grey-white because of all the life essence he lost as a sacrifice to control time on such a grand scale. His body withered to the point of looking like a mummy.
Unfortunately for him, his job was not finished. The previous messenger clones announced that the ascension of the Death God was completed, and now, he was the master of Fate and Death.
All the temples were changed to Wang Wei's face and body, then all the mortals began to worship him. For now, the group's plan was somewhat successful.
Li Jun asked Wang Ju, "Can his power still be used?"
"There is still some incense left over. Plus, if needed, we can sacrifice his soul."
"In that case, let's create another continent. This way of gathering incense is very effective and is quite a useful way to train Fanatic Believers."
He took out a black stone and handed it over. After seeing the Void Stone, Wang Ju immediately understood his plan. She controlled the Death God to send the stone in the core of this Heavenly Abode.
Then, vast spatial energy came from it and began to increase the size of the Heavenly Abode. In just a few minutes, it increased by at least five-fold. Following this, three new continents were created by the Death God.
Finally, the messengers in the second continent gathered a large group of mortals to send them on a journey across the ocean to spread the faith of their beloved God; they were going on a divine voyage.
After going through the "turbulence" of the ocean and surviving countless encounters with powerful sea creatures, these people's faith drastically increases since their "God" will always intervene at the appropriate moment to save their lives.
After arriving at the other continents, they began to establish civilization there and rebuild the temples of their God.
"Can you speed up the time again?" asked Li Jun.
"At this rate, he won't be able to last after 50 years."
"That's not enough time for the population to increase," replied Li Jun. "What if we fatten up his soul and body?"
Wang Ju's eyes lit up after hearing this. Then, she nodded her head. Immediately, Yan Liling took out a few pills.
There was the Essence Replenishing Pill which was a Heaven Grade Pill. This had the effect of replenishing the Death God's blood energy that he previously consumed.
As for the other pills, they were Yin Nourish Pill, which was a Top-level Earth Grade Pill used by Primordial Spirit Cultivators to cultivate their souls. Without hesitation, he fed all of them to him.
His mummified body slowly returned to normal. However, too much energy was contained inside his body, so he began to become a little bloated. Wang Ju quickly controlled his to seal the remaining medicinal energy inside his body.
Following this, the strength of his soul began to rapidly increase after eating all these pills. Ordinarily, this should be a good thing. Unfortunately, the Death God swallowed too much, making his soul increase in strength beyond his control.
Most cultivators would not do so as this will lead to their souls being unstable and eventually destroyed. However, the three of them did not care about this since they just wanted to rapidly increase the strength of the Death God.
Once his soul reached a certain level, Wang Ju controlled him to accelerate the time flow of the other two continents again. This time, it lasted for 500 years, and immediately after that, the Death God's body disintegrated into tiny particles before being blown away by the wind.
His body, soul, and law were completely destroyed.
And in those 500 years, countless generations of humans were born and died. They created descendants to pass on their legacy. The small population of the two continents increased from 100,000 people to 10 billion, providing an abundance of incense to the group.
As the three of them floated in the sky, not affected by the Power of Time, they watched all of this happening with a calm look. Yan Liling sighed as she said: "500 years. It only took five hundred years for countless generations of mortals to be born and die. Their short life is truly a tragedy."
Yan Liling was currently over 800 years old, and she considered herself young. Yet, for these mortals, she could be considered their ancestors.
"Isn't the same could be said for us?" said Li Jun. "They get to live for a few short decades, but we only get a few million years. In the end, without achieving immortality, we will one day return to the dirt like them.
"The only difference is we take a little longer."
All of them became silent after hearing this. In every generation, when any sect or faction cultivates a Great Emperor, it is not only because he will become the most powerful being in the world.
It is the opportunity of many people to escape the shackles of time.
So, if in the future, Wang Wei failed to become a Great Emperor, their fate will also be the same as these mortals.
