Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor
chapter-937

Wang Wei arrived in the Western Continent through the mortals's Subspace Travelling Technology. He was happy with the changes he saw so far, especially with the transportation technology.

Before he forced the world to change, most mortals would be born and die in the same Domain they were born. No, forget the domain, all of them would spend millions of generations stuck in the 10,000-kilometer radius of where they were born.

Only a few things like natural man-made disasters, dynasty changes, and famine would make them change location. However, 99% of them would die in the process, ending their lineage.

Now, any mortal with a decent income can travel the entire world, going from one domain to another and from one continent to another.

'After everything is settled, use of the Subspace should become cheaper, and everyone can travel anywhere with relative ease.'

After walking out of the portal, Wang Wei secretly used his power in the subspace.

[Order: No cultivators can enter the subspace.

[Disorder: Unless they have permission from the court and are going to do things like repair or fix certain problems.]

The subspace that connected the entire world of mortals was subtly changed, and only a few people noticed the difference. Then, Wang Wei continued his visit.

He visited the Western Continent, trying to see their civilization. His first observation was that the devil cultivators were nowhere to be seen.

'I guess this should be expected,' thought Wang Wei with a smirk. His eyes scanned the entire continent and saw most Devil Lineage had closed their gate, not allowing their disciples to participate in the outside world.

A few were even discussed modifying their techniques to make it less reliant on negative karma. Meanwhile, during this absence, the Western Bliss Sect had already controlled the Western White Tiger Continent.

'I'm surprised the Di Clan did not resist, even secretly,' thought Wang Wei. Feng Heng's approach to the Western Continent was similar to a cultural invasion, slowly making Buddhism the dominant religion and influencing the West.

He did not try to directly influence the cultivation part of the West but focused on the mortals–who were the main source of cultivators. Now, more than seventy percent of mortals would choose to enter the Western Bliss Sect once they have the talent for cultivation.

Without the threat of the devil, the Di Clan's prestige and power were tremendously reduced. It also did not help that they were a Clan Faction. 99% of the people in power were members of the Di Clan, sharing a bloodline. The remaining 1% percent were talented individuals they recruited outside, but the caveat is that they had to marry one of Di Clan's daughters, and the heir would have the name Di.

Many people do not accept becoming the Di Clan son-in-law, making it difficult to recruit foreign cultivators. In the past, some people had no choice– either marrying into the Di Clan or becoming a devil cultivator.

But now, they could also choose the Western Bliss Sect. Feng Heng was smart and created the Outer Hall, a faction in the Western Bliss Sect that cultivated Buddhist Techniques but did not believe in Buddha or the religion.

These people only had to follow certain rules and precepts, and other things did not matter. Many people praise him for his benevolence, but Wang Wei could tell the trap in this method.

If these people want to cultivate the Buddhist Technique to a higher level, they must have a deeper understanding of the Dharma, meaning they must read and understand Buddhist scriptures and ideologies. In the end, most of them will convert to the religion to reach higher realms.

"Such a method is good in the early stages, but it will leave a flaw for Buddhism later on,' thought Wang Wei. Since he was also part of Buddhism, he decided to warn Feng Heng.

'Huh? Does he already know? I see; he's using this method to strengthen the weak foundation of Buddhism. However, he should leave methods to deal with the issue before ascending.'

For a moment, Wang Wei thought the monk had allowed the idea of reviving Buddhism to affect his mind and made such an error.

'That's fine,' thought Wang Wei before continuing his tour. The West also had a unique mortal civilization, and it involved Buddhism. While invisible, Wang Wei watched a battle between two individuals in a forest outside Holy Light City: a mortal monk and a Tier 3 demon beast.

"Donor, I know you were enlightened and know right from wrong. It's not too late to redeem yourself, serve your sentence, and become free once again."

"Ridiculous. Demons should be free and wild. So what if I ate a few humans? This is my nature," replied the black tiger with white stripes on its back.

"Wisdom and knowledge are the keys to changing one's innate nature. So, it does not matter whether demons despise societal rules and restraint."

"All of you monks have golden tongues; I won't listen to any of your words."

"In that case, Donor, please have a taste of My Arha Subduing Demon Fist," said the monk before taking on a martial pose. The battle was fierce, but a few hours later, the monk defeated the Tiger Demon–who was on par with the Divine Altar Realm Cultivator– and captured it. Then, he used a Communication Talisman to contact the government in Holy Light City to get the tiger.

'Buddhist Martial Art? Interesting,' thought Wang Wei before leaving. He entered a temple and watched a young monk create a magical artifact. The monk held a beard before him and constantly chanted Buddhist Mantras.

Finally, a phantom of a monk floated above him and waved his hand to bless the bead, turning it into a magical artifact.

"Success," said the monk, who stood up in excitement. However, he was a mortal without cultivation or martial arts, so he was dizzy and almost fainted. Luckily, he held onto something before falling.

'Another path besides Extraordinary Citizens?' thought Wang Wei as he realized what Feng Heng had done. He revived many of the fallen monks from the Incense Era in the form of [Spirit], turning them into [Gods] of Buddhism and receiving incense from mortals.

In return, mortals who do not have the talent to become [Extraordinary Citizens] can become monks and learn scriptures. The truly talented or devoted ones can resonate with one of the spirits, becoming their patron Gods.

These Patron Gods will protect their chosen subjects and grant them abilities similar to Extraordinary Citizens, even their status in society on par.

'This is not a bad idea,' thought Wang Wei. 'These spirits use their powers to feed the luck and prosperity of mortal civilization, which will feed back to them, allowing them to use an alternative form of cultivation.

'Some of them were probably Immortals from the Incense Era. With this method, it's only a matter of time before they can return to their previous strength, thus boosting Buddhism's foundation as a lineage.'

These spirits have been dead for too long, rendering their Imprints useless to revive them. Furthermore, too many of them died, so it was impossible for Feng Heng to revive them.

Even someone with Wang Wei's strength would take too much effort as he might have to tamper with the River of Time if he wanted to revive these people. Such an act might lead to severe consequences, so he could not help Feng Heng even if he went to.

So, this method of turning them into spirits or religious Gods is an alternative to reviving them. Although the majority would lose their memories, there is still a chance that some will regain them.

Wang Wei secretly nodded before continuing his tour. The mortal civilization in this continent had a peaceful atmosphere. Because of the influence of Buddhism, everyone had a deep wisdom and compassion aura surrounding them.

The Extraordinary Citizens also had a unique path since Buddhism had a deep knowledge of the mind, soul, and spiritual power. As such, their methods of awakening Spiritual Power for their people were excellent and can be described as top-of-the-line.

The Demon School that Wang Wei created has also flourished in the West. Many monks have made it their mission to enlighten animals to turn into demons, teaching them about compassion, morality, and the idea of controlling their nature.

Once the demons become enlightened and pass a test, they will receive the Transformation Pill, allowing them to change into human shape before the Supernatural Realm. Afterward, the demon race can integrate into the Cultivation or Mortal World based on their own choice or preference.

Wang Wei was not surprised by this method since the Dao Opening Sect had a similar approach. The Fox Race was in charge of the demon race's enlightenment in their territory. The only difference is that the demon race would integrate into the Cultivation World, not the mortal one.

Feng Heng was using the demon race's luck to nourish his mortal civilization. In turn, the demon race's luck will also benefit by adapting to the Myriad Emperor World's rules and the fact that the human race is the protagonist of Heaven and Earth.

The monk's method entangled the two race's luck while still keeping the human race on top. Meanwhile, Wang Wei's method is to directly plunder the demon race's luck.

'His method is not bad and can be learned from,' thought Wang Wei before leaving and heading to the North. The West's food was delicious, but the majority of it was vegetarian, and he wanted meat and something with more grease.
