Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor
chapter-771

Tie Gang did not waste time and swallowed a pill.

Bang!

His aura drastically increased. He used his Innate Talent to connect to the Undying Talent. He did not only share their life force but also borrowed their strength. Finally, he linked to Yan Liling's array, thus further sublimating his strength.

Yin Gen glanced at him with a frown. He instantly could tell the latter's power had reached the Immortal Venerable level through secret technique or other methods; thus, it was short-lived. So, he ordered his Starbeast Zombie to drag the battle until Tie Gang returned to normal.

"It not a good thing to be distracted in battle."

Boom!

After hearing this news, Yin Gen instinctively crossed his arm over his chest. Then, a powerful force hit him, pushing him flying away countless light-years away. Yin Gen crashed into a star.

The enormous celestial body exploded, creating a supernova. However, Yin Gen was unharmed by both the explosion and Li Jun's attack.

"His body,' muttered Yin Gen with a frown. He controlled the muscles in his legs, gathering an enormous force. The space underneath Yin Gen's foot cracked as he used it as leverage to jump with immense force.

Through his sheer strength, his speed reached an indescribable level. So, in less than a zeptosecond, he appeared before Li Jun and punched him. However, the latter did not want to be outmatched, so he returned tit-for-tat.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The fists clashed, generating shockwaves that can easily destroy superclusters of galaxies. In less than a minute, they exchanged more than a quintillion punches.

'His fleshly body,' thought with an ugly expression. He expected Wang Wei to have a potent fleshly body. But he did not expect the latter's general to have such a level.

The worse thing is he did not feel the breath of the [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scripture], but an entirely different body refining scripture.

'Damn it,' roared Yin Gen in his mind before increasing the strength used. He punched Li Jun, sending him flying away. Li Jun crashed through hundreds of planets and a dozen galaxies before stopping.

However, his injuries were only superficial and healed instantly.

"What a wonderful body-refining technique. It's a shame."

"And what does that mean?" said Yin Gen, who appeared before him; he had controlled his emotions and calmed down.

"Our sect's [Ancient Desolate Body Refining Scipture] is known for its difficulty to cultivate, but there are still many people with the talent. However, the threshold for your technique is probably even higher. I'm guessing your sect would be lucky to find ten people capable of cultivating it to a high level–let alone willing to cultivate it in the first place."

Yin Gen knew the latter was correct. Since he created his technique, few people were willing to cultivate it. After all, the first step involved turning into a disgusting creature like Zombie. Although cultivators can change back into humans, it requires achieving a high level.

Unfortunately, his Golden Zombie Art–now call Immortal Zombie Art–is too difficult to cultivate. It requires immense suffering to absorb Yin Qi; there is a high chance of going insane–which requires a high Willpower to control–and the technique is weak to Light Dao, Yang Dao, Thunder Dao, and Buddhist Techniques in the early stages.

Only by reaching the Golden Zombie Stage will these weaknesses against positive Dao or powers be eliminated. Unfortunately, few people can reach such a stage.

Yin Gen gazed at Li Jun, using Yin Power's coldness to remain calm. His obsession was proving his body-refining lineage was the best in the world. This obsession had made his Dao Heart unable to reach perfection.

The lack of perfection will not prevent Yin Gen from proving the Dao or even becoming an Eternal Emperor. On the contrary, it will become his motivation to move forward until he defeats Wang Chong. Regardless, this lack of perfection can be exploited by others if he is not careful.

And Li Jun has caught this flaw and used his word to affect his state of mind. So, he decided to no longer play around as he sensed the aura of his Starbeast Zombie was slowly but steadily decreasing.

Yin Gen turned his right hand into a claw shape and gathered his 66 Primordial Dragon Force. His battle prowess reached the peak of 6-Leaf.

[Yin Claw]

A colossal blue claw manifested before rushing toward Li Jun with unparalleled momentum

'Time to get serious,' thought Li Jun as he summoned his Proving Dao Artifact. He held the spear in his hand tightly before stabbing forward. The Power of Slaughter gathered on the tip of his weapon, swiftly eradicating the claw.

However, Li Jun's attack did not stop and continued moving forward. Yin Gen felt a sense of crisis, so he evaded. Unfortunately, his action was predicted.

Li Jun appeared before him and stabbed his head. Yin Gen felt an intense sense of danger. Typically, he would not care if his head was gone. However, he knew he could not tank this attack. Furthermore, it was also too late for him to completely evade.

So, he moved his body, so the spear pierced his body, leaving a hole the size of an adult human palm. Immediately, Yin Gen blew with his mouth, and the force sent Li Jun a few meters away. Taking this opportunity, he distanced himself from his opponent.

Yin Gen's complexion was not good-looking.

'He killed the Yin Qin in my body,' he analyzed as he observed his body. Yin Qi was embedded deep in his blood energy, bones, and organs. However, Li Jun's attack killed all the Yin, reducing his power by more than 15%.

With a thought, Yin Gen controlled the Yin Qi in the surroundings to replenish himself. After all, too many peopled died in the Eastern Quadrant, affecting this entire battlefield.

Unfortunately, Yin Gen discovered he could not control as many Yin Qi as he wished. And the culprit for this was Li Jun, who was looking at him calmly.

"Surprised?"

Yin Gen did not answer, retaining his calm and composed state. After seeing this, Li Jun chose not to say anymore since it was pointless. Yin Gen's absolute control of Yin Qi is based on his sublime control of Qi or Energy. However, he is a pure body refiner and does not cultivate Law or Dao.

Meanwhile, Li Jun's Slaughter Dao also involved Death Dao, which also involved Yin Qi.

Suddenly, the void near Yin Gen rippled as a new power entered his body, replacing the power of Yin Qi. His aura changed as he not only regained his strength but became higher and more powerful.

"Negative emotions, sins–this is the devil's karmic sins," analyzed Li Jun as he sensed the power entering Yin Gen's body. According to the information gathered on the latter, he did not have this power. However, the Fate Shadow Guard did state he immediately entered a state of retreat after returning from the Clean-Up.

'So, he used the Devil's Karmic Sins for his Zombie Art to reach a higher level,' analyzed Li Jun before waving his spear.

[Spear Meteor]

Millions of spears appeared in the empty space, rushing toward Yin Gen, who had an ugly expression. He had discovered a weird power that nullified his regeneration. The worse part is he could not remove it no matter what he did.

Yin Gen divided his mind in two, focusing on the oncoming attack. He clapped his hands together, generating a shockwave that destroyed most of the spears.

[Banshee Wail] Banshe are part of undead or Ghost–or creatures that thrive on the soul, negative energy, or Yin Qi.

Yin Gen opened his mouth to generate a sonic attack to stop the remaining spears. His attack was a two-prone method, attacking the spear and also affecting Li Jun's soul. Unfortunately, the latter did not respond, utterly ignoring his attempt.

Furthermore, he did not stop all the spears, as five still reached.

Bang!

Yin Gen punched the nearest spear. He then used the force of the attack to push himself backward countless light-years away. He stopped in a cluster of galaxies and absorbed the life energy they generated.

The Starry Sky Battlefield created for the Heaven Will does not have life. However, the planets, stars, and galaxies themselves can be considered living, full of life energy.

Yin Gen absorbed hundreds of them, hoping to heal himself. Unfortunately, he discovered he could store these energies but could not make the hole in his chest heal.

'Damn it, what is this power?' he thought. Unfortunately, he did not have long to contemplate and come up with a solution. Li Jun threw his spear, and the killing weapon was flying toward with unmatched momentum and the power to Slaughter all living beings.

Boom!

Yin Gen clashed with a nearby planet, coughing a large mouthful of blood. His organs shook by the vibration from the planet, but he regenerated this time.

"Huh? The power of Yin-Yang?" uttered Li Jun as he looked at the black and white shield around Yin Gen.

"I understand. The process of cultivating your Zombie Art is turning into an undead before reverting to the living. So, it makes sense you can control the Power of Yin and Yang. You should also have some control of Life and Death."
