Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor-Novel

Chapter 371 - Rebirth

A few days later, Wang Wei was called to his cheap master's cave. As soon as he entered, he could feel that the latter was more serious than ever, so he secretly became more solemn.

"This is for you," said Ye Lao as he handed a bottle to his apprentice. Using his Divine Sense, he saw a bright red pill with a small phoenix drawn on it. Inside, he felt a vast amount of vitality contained.

"Phoenix Heart Pill," muttered Wang Wei with a slight smile on his face. During his last encounter with his master, he hinted that he was worried about his safety exactly for this pill.

"Master, isn't this a little too precious?"

"You do not have to worry about such a thing. With your current status, talent, and future, the sect will do everything to train and protect you."

"Thank you, master and the sect. This disciple will forever be grateful," replied Wang Wei as he swallowed the pill. He did not believe Ye Lao's words.

He guessed that it was not that easy for him to get this pill–especially the Quasi-Emperor Tier. From what he knew and analyzed about Fu Caiyun, he would not let things go so easily.

After swallowing the pill, it did not dissipate into his body to take effect but instead lodge into one of the chambers of his heart, ready to release large quantities of vitality when needed.

'With this pill, the time needed to finish the second step of tempering my blood should be reduced by a great deal.'

"Master, where are we going?" as Wang Wei once he was done.

Immediately, the sect master became serious. Ye Lao did not answer him but took out a token. After activating it, the two of them teleported to a secret realm.

Then, Wang Wei saw his cheap master speak to an old man for a few minutes before he teleported somewhere else again. Although the old man did not say anything, Wang Wei could feel a few people following the two of them afterward.

After exiting the Secret Realm, Ye Lao took Wang Wei into a Void Boat and headed to the Central Continent. During the entire trip, the old man was very secretive and seemed very on guard.

And it seems it was for a very good reason.

Two days into their trip, Wang Wei could feel a few True Monarchs fighting in the sky. He guessed most likely that Fu Caiyun had sent assassins after him.

Nevertheless, he pretended that he did not know anything.

After a week, they finally arrived at their destination. It was a small island between the Central and Eastern Continent.

Although he called the island small, it was relative to the Domains in the other continents. If you compared it to Wang Wei's previous life, this island is probably the same size as the sun.

The place that he was currently was known as the Eastern Sea Domain. Countless islands existed in that area with many cultivators occupying them, mostly loose cultivators and small families.

They fight and compete for resources.

Saint families are usually the most powerful and occupy the island with the richest resources. Unfortunately, the lack of resources makes it very difficult to train True Monarchs in this region.

Additionally, the Sea Race has established this region as their own and will not allow powerful human factions to exist there.

White Heart Island:

After secretly landing, Ye Lao brought Wang Wei to a forest in the north and gave him a token. After activating it, a white light enveloped him and he disappeared. Meanwhile, Ye Lao was not surprised by this and waited outside for him.

Wang Wei found himself in a room with two rows of flames on each side. However, he did not feel the temperature rise or change, it was very normal.

Then, he heard a female voice echoing in the room:

"Welcome to the Flame Emperor Inheritance Trial. Please display the [Flame Control Art]."

"Interesting," muttered Wang Wei. There were rumors that the Flame Emperor was born in one of the islands in the Eastern Sea Domain, and rose there as a loose cultivator before proving the Dao.

Without hesitation, Wang Wei began to display his mastery of the Flame Controlling Art.

"Flame Controlling Art 6th level. Pass," said the Inheritance Spirit.

A white light suddenly appeared and entered Wang Wei's Sea of Consciousness. After closing his eyes, he found the information for the 7th to 10th level of this art.

He also received the information that this was the basic reward for passing this test and coming here.

"Let's begin the second test," said the female voice. Then, a strange flower appeared in front of him, and he was asked to purify it. According to the information, the better he purified the material, the higher his score, and the better the reward he will receive.

A bright flame appeared in his hand as he sat down in front of the flower and began the process of purification. With his ability, this should have been a very easy task but he was wrong.

The beginning part was as easy as he expected, however, later on, he discovered that the purity inside this flower seems to have some form of consciousness and would actively run away, making it very difficult to cleanse.

Additionally, they were very good at hiding so Wang Wei had to take a lot of time and effort to remove it while also making sure that he did not destroy the medicinal property of the herb.

At some point, he even take out his Cleansing-Purifying Flame to see whether he could use it. And the spirit told him that it was allowed.

So, he used this Heavenly Flame for the final step.

"You have received a Perfect Grade and passed this trial. Please receive your reward."

According to the grading system of this trial, there are five grades: Inferior, Average, Above Average, Passing Line, Excellent, and Perfect.

A green seed appeared in front of Wang Wei and he could see a small flame inside. Then, the knowledge of this reward was placed inside his mind.

Between Heaven and Earth, there are magical flames that are bred under certain circumstances or environments. These flames have a variety of functions or purposes and are very rare. As such, cultivators often hunt for them to use as their own.

The seed given to him by the trial contained a Heavenly Flame called Earth Spirit Flame. Its main purpose is to nourish spiritual herbs to increase their age, accelerate their growth time, and even evolved them into better herbs.

This was an excellent flame for Alchemist as it can also be helpful during the refining process. So, with a smile on his face, Wang Wei put it away. This was a worthwhile award.

Then, Wang Wei wanted to be cheeky as he asked the Inheritance Spirit if she could give him another one of the flowers used in this test. Based on his knowledge, he had never seen this flower before.

She agreed.

For the next trial, a book appeared in front of Wang Wei and he was asked to use his Divine Sense to list all the herbs he knew along with their description, his understanding of them and their properties, and the different recipes that they can be used on.

And without hesitation, he did so. He already guessed that the better he performed, the more rewards he will receive from this trial, so he did not hesitate.

In this part of the exam, he even expressed his idea of unified measures for herbs and mixing ratios. With Lou Cheng's Precision Talent, he modified many Pill Recipes with this system in mind.

"You have passed this trial," said the female voice. However, Wang Wei noticed that he was no longer calm or monotonous; there was a sense of excitement and surprise in it.

Immediately afterward, two jade talismans appeared in front of him. And after checking them with his Divine Sense, he was a little surprised.

One of the books contained information about many herbs and analysis of them, while the other contained many recipes. The precious thing about these things was the fact they were personally written by the Flame Emperor himself.

With a wider smile, he placed the talismans away.

For the next part of the test, a rune appeared in front of Wang Wei. For some reason, he had the feeling that this rune was perfect He then noticed was that he did not recognize it. Additionally, he quickly realized that this rune was made of countless other runes.

He could not understand how they fit so perfectly together, so he quickly began to understand.

After an unknown amount of time, he realized that this rune was made up of 1.269 trillion runes that fit together. Unfortunately, he could barely identify a few hundred million of them.

This was a small blow to Wang Wei who had become a little inflated after his years of studying the Natural Array Mountain and his little Alchemy accomplishment.

Nevertheless, he quickly remembered the entire to study later. Additionally, based on the runes he identified, he still passed the trial.

As for the reward, he was actually once again a little surprised.

It was a Quasi-Emperor Pill called Dao Foundation Patching Pill. After swallowing it, the pill reforged or patch Lou Cheng's previously weak foundation.

In a few moments, his cultivation was abolished and started over.

His previous 10th layer Blood Qi Realm became 12, transforming from a Holy Foundation to a Dao Foundation.

His Divine Sea was wider, more solid, and his origin qi purer. His Divine Altar was now engraved with 365 Veins. Unfortunately, it still contained a small crack and was not perfect.

His previous 11-color Good Fortunate Flame turned into 12. His Sea of Consciousness expanded and his soul drastically increased in size.

In other words, this Lou Cheng was reborn into a new and better version of himself; he could now accept the title of Heaven Chosen solely based on his foundation.

Wang Wei had to sigh at this reward. He was aware of the Dao Foundation Patching Pill as it was one of the most difficult Quasi-Emperor Pill to refine. Most Emperor Lineages only had a few.

After thanking the inheritance Spirit for the reward, he proceeded to the final trial–which turned out to be quite simple. All he had to do was refine the highest possible pill in his capabilities.

So, Wang Wei refined another Saint Pill. However, unlike last time, he was not that tired. Although still paled but not as bad.

"You have passed the final trial. Congratulation, you are now the successor of the Flame Emperor."

A book containing Dao Rhyme appeared in front of Wang Wei with the title: [Ten Thousand Flame Art].

He smiled as he was a little interested in this Emperor Scripture–especially since the Flame Emperor cultivated a Chaos Flame like himself. So, he raised his hand to take it and give it a quick check.

Unfortunately, his body suddenly paused, unable to move a single inch.
