Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 318: Pursuing Longevity World

As soon as Wu Hong entered the Pursuing Longevity World, she felt a terrible constraint of the surrounding. It was like she was a giant squeezed inside a small bottle. The smallest of movement, even breathing too hard would cause the entire bottle to collapse.

Additionally, not long after she entered, she could feel a mighty and indifferent Will slowly waking up, and it seemed that it was because of her.

’This world’s Heavenly Dao seemed very active. Is there a reason for this?’ thought Wu Hong with a frown on her face.

From her knowledge, the response of Heavenly Dao to foreign intruders is different. For Lower Thousand Worlds, Heavenly Dao is very weak so it’s very protective of its world. So, anyone with cultivation higher than the Divine Altair Realm, it will try its best to expel invaders.

Middle Thousand Worlds is a little different. Their defense mechanism is that it will restrain the cultivation of any foreigners. So, once they enter, they have to spend time adapting to the laws of the world. This is especially prominent for cultivators from different World Communities who cultivated different systems.

As for Great Thousand Worlds, their Heavenly Dao will not interfere with any foreigners below the Supreme Realm. However, once a foreign True Monarch enters, his or her cultivation will be suppressed making them adapt to the laws of the world–just like foreigners of Middle Thousand World.

Lastly, Heaven Will World. The Heavenly Dao of this level of world usually does not care about foreigners that intrude into their world–even with foreign Great Emperors. The only time they will interfere is if such a level of cultivator starts destroying the world, then they will release Divine Punishment Thunder to stop them.

For example, if a Supreme Realm foreign cultivator intruded into a Heaven Will World and started slaughtering cultivators and mortals alike, Heavenly Dao will not care. However, if a Great Emperor, Dao Ancestor, or Immortal Venerable did that, then it would intervene.

Of course, all this information is for most worlds. Some of them are special and follow different regulations, just like the world that Wu Hong was currently in.

As soon as she entered, she felt that the Heavenly Dao of this world was awakened and heading towards her way. Not wanting to deal with many complications, she immediately sealed most of her cultivation and breath.

Soon after doing this, she felt that the Will coming towards stopped and retreated. Wu Hong then finally looked around to notice her surroundings. She found herself floating in the air with a large ocean underneath.

The majestic blue sea stretched in all directions, with nothing else in sight. Wu Hong wanted to use her Divine Sense to search the surroundings but did not dare do not alert this world’s Heavenly Dao again.

After reviewing her memories, she guessed as to why this world was preventing her from using her power.

Although she could not use her Divine Sense, her sight was still quite powerful. So, she scanned a few million miles in all four directions, but still did not find anything except for the endless sea.

In the end, she relied on her intuition to choose a direction and flew that way. For the next month, Wu Hong constantly flew in one direction. Due to this world’s restriction, her strength was greatly restricted, and so was her speed.

So, it took her a month before finding the nearest place with people living on it. Luckily for her, during the journey, she was attacked by many Sea beasts and a few flying demonic beasts.

Killing them made the journey less boring. Plus, she finally conquered a Purple-Winged Vulture and used it as a transportation means. After searching his soul, she knew the direction of the nearest city.

Once she arrived at the nearest island, she placed the vulture in her space ring, then became invisible. Wu Hong knew how attractive she was and if she appeared in front of all these cultivators, some poor guy will be tempted to either flirt or use force to get her body. Then, she will be forced to massacre him along with his family.

After landing on Maple Island, Wu Hong headed to the nearest inn to listen to people talking, hoping to gather some useful information. In the first few days, she only learned that the vast sea was divided into countless different Territories with thousands of small islands making a Territory.

The Territory she was currently in was called Bamboo Leaf Territory and the leader of this territory was the Lan family. Wu Hong then secretly flew to the Lan family’s main island.

"If I remember correctly, Wang Wei was born in the Red Sky Territory in a mortal family."

The mortals in this world live a terrible life. Cultivators do not care about them and the environment is not suitable for farming. So, they have to hunt fish to survive. Unfortunately, the sea belongs to sea beasts, so they are constantly attacked.

And once a beast tide occurs, many islands habited by mortals usually suffer great casualties. As for the role of cultivators? They treat mortals as breathing machines.

The talent for cultivating in this world is very rare and requires something called a Spirit Root. Unfortunately, only a few people have them. Once a mortal reaches the age of 14, they will be tested to see if they have a Spirit Root.

The ones who have it are taken by cultivating families or sects. Their families will be taken care of in return and do not need to worry about food and housing. The more talented a child is, the higher the treatment that their family will receive.

After flying nonstop for three days, Wu Hong finally reached her destination: Ice-Butterfly Island. She headed straight to the largest city on the island to listen to some news.

Inside an inn, Wu Hong sat at a table by herself. Oddly though, no one paid attention to her, as if she was nonexistent. She was listening attentively to the people speaking around.

"Have you heard?" asked a drunken man.

"What?" asked one of his female companions.

"Lan’s family Seventh Young Master broke through the Qi Refinement Realm."

"What? He’s only 18 years old this year."

"That’s correct."

"That means that he only took 5 years to go through the nine levels of the Body Refinement Realm."

"Why are you guys surprised? This is a genius born with a 1st Grade Spirit Root. It’s expected for him to enter the Golden Core Realm in time."

After hearing the words "Golden Core" every cultivator in the inn had a look of yearning and envy in their faces, then they sighed desolately. Meanwhile, Wu Hong was reviewing her memories to try to remember the information she knew.

The Spirit Root of this world is divided into 5 grades with 1st being the highest. Above that are Spirit Physiques which are the Heavenly Physiques List of this World. The first three physiques are the same as in the Myriad Emperor World: Absolute Chaos Physique, Heavy Axe Physique, and Six Emotions Seven Desires Physique.

From the fourth on, they are different and best suited to the laws of this world.

From her memory, she knew that once Wang Wei was reborn in this world, he had the lowest 5th Grade Spirit Root–which meant that the Body Refining Realm was his limit.

However, as a previous Quasi-Emperor, he was limited by things like talent. After getting a basic cultivation technique, he was able to modify it to suit him the best. He even slowly integrated this world’s Immortal Cultivation System with the Origin System of his second reincarnation.

After getting the information she wanted, Wu Hong quickly infiltrated the Lan family’s Scripture Hall where they kept their cultivation technique. Nothing could detect her–not even the Elder guarding the Hall or the formation placed inside.

Wu Hong quickly read through all the techniques and books that contained information about this world. She first focused on the cultivation system.

Cultivators in this world start with the Body Refining Realm where they use the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth to temper their bodies. After reaching a certain level, they go through a process called [Qi Building] where they introduce Qi into their dantian and enter the Qi Refining Realm.

Once the amount of qi inside their bodies reaches a certain level, they have to liquefy it and turn it into mana. By then, cultivators have entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Once mana reaches a certain level, it will have to compress again into a core, thus entering the Golden Core Realm.

This realm is very important for immortal cultivators as they can ascend from the Mortal World to enter the Spirit Realm.

After learning about this, Wu Hong knew that her guess was correct. The reason that Heavenly Dao suddenly took notice of her was the fact that her power exceeded the mortal world. If she used too much of it, she could destroy it.

After finding the truth, Wu Hong was not happy as she faced another problem. She could not directly break the void to enter the Spirit Realm. Every time she tried, she felt a strong warning.

With her strength, she did not think anyone or anything in this world could threaten her. However, she came here for a reason and did not want to confront this world’s Heavenly Dao, otherwise, he could be exiled and prevented from ever entering this world again.

So, she decided to find another way to ascend. She planned to study this world’s technique and imitate the aura of this world’s cultivator; to be precise, imitate the aura of a Golden Core Cultivator, then ascend to the Spirit Realm.

Unfortunately, the Lan family’s cultivation technique could only reach the Peak of the Foundation Realm, so she had to search elsewhere.
