Wang Wei looked at the fifth man. He was only the only calm person in this group throughout his monologue. Besides a slight surprise at the beginning, he returned to a stoic and taciturn state. 

Wang Wei instantly appeared before him and punched him. The power of destruction emanated from his fist, trying to annihilate anything in its path.

Crack!

Cracks appeared on Gong Fan’s Dao Artifact, and he felt a terrifying power trying to erase him from the mortal plane. Luckily for him, Liu Tong acted swiftly and used a defensive talisman to boost his already powerful defensive shield. Ans since Gong Fan cultivated the Defense Dao, he survived the attack.

Regrettably, Wang Wei seemed to have predicted this outcome as he instantly activated his Destiny Ability: Purpose Manipulation. He changed the purpose of the talisman from a defensive talisman to one that boosted his attack; in other worse, he took Liu Tong’s power for himself.

Bang!

Gong Fan flew from the sky and crashed on the continent.

‘Survived?’ thought Wang Wei as he felt the vivid life force of the opponent. His mind rushed as he analyzed the situation. And he soon knew why: an Emperor Artifact.

Mortal cannot bring the full strength of Emperor Artifacts. The best they can do is bring out about 20% of it–unless things like an array and a faction’s Qi Luck are used. And even then, only when Immortals control the arrays and luck could the weapon be used to their full capacities. And that’s because the essence of mortals and Immortals are different. 

Dao Ancestor can activate 20 to 90% of an Emperor Artifact, depending on the user. And with his current strength, Wang Wei can only bring about 60%. However, if he uses more than the 20% limit, the artifact will absorb his life span because of his Mortal Essence.

‘However, these people are Dao Ancestors and do not have any issue with using Emperor Artifact,’ thought Wang Wei. His mind worked faster than a quantum computer, so he analyzed the situation at an unimaginable speed.

He moved his body slightly to evade Monkey’s attack.

‘A Saber Dao cultivator?’ he thought. Saber Dao has one of the highest offensive capabilities–even more than Sword. The saber is a weapon for killing, and all saber wielders know this and treat it as such. Meanwhile, swordsmen often romanticized the sword. Even a powerful swordsman like Wang Tian is guilty of this mindset.

Unfortunately, it is not as prosperous as Sword Dao. And there are many reasons for that. The main one is there are no philosophies of pursuing pure Saber Dao. Most saber-wielders will do anything to increase their strength and kill their enemies. However, the few who pursue pureness as swordsmen are ten times scarier.

“Use the talisman I gave you,” yelled Liu Tong, and the group followed his order. A mysterious power enveloped them, protecting their fate.

“You guys are well prepared,” commented Wang Wei. However, he did not care. His mastery of Fate Dao made these talismans minimal in their protection. At best, they can reduce his attacks and method by a few percent.

Swish!

An arrow came out of nowhere, and his body moved on instinct to dodge. He looked over to see Ding Hua, with a swollen face holding a bow and condensing wind arrows.

[Fate Escape]

Whenever fate is, Wang Wei can be there. So, he instantly appeared before her. Before anyone could react, he attacked her again. Or so he thought.

Bang!

A shield blocked his attack, and this time around, she was not even pushed back. Wang Wei looked at Gong Fan, “You’re annoying, so you’ll be the first to die.”

An enormous version of himself manifested behind him: his Dharma Body.

“He-He wasn’t serious before,” muttered Monkey. The battle began less than a few minutes ago, and the opponent had already placed so much pressure on them. And even then, he was not going all out.

“Formation 12-D,” suddenly yelled Liu Tong, and everyone acted on instinct–including the healed Tie Zong. A mountain appeared above Gong Fan, followed by numerous talismans and a wing barrier capable of shredding a few Great Thousand Worlds. Meanwhile, Monkey used his most potent saber attack to stall the enemy.

pA n,dan(-)0ve1.c0m “Useless,” commented Wang Wei as his Dharma Body punched forward. The punch seemed nothing extraordinary, but Gong Fan’s body slowly dissipated immediately afterward. The odd thing was he had no injuries on his body and soul.

“W-what just happened?” asked Monky, unable to hide the fear in his eyes and voice.

“The Law of Time,” said Liu Tong with gritted teeth. He had a circular rune in one of his eyes as he looked at Wang Wei. “He sent his attack a few minutes to the past, killing Gong Fan. Since past Gong Fan is dead, the present one will also die.”

“He can do that?”

“You can actually see through my technique? You’re quite the talent,” commented Wang Wei. “Do you want to join my Dao Opening Sect? I can give you the status of ancestor and enjoy countless resources.”

“No, thank you.”

“It’s alright. Anyway, I don’t think you will survive much longer,” Wang Wei replied before looking at the monkey-looking man. “You’re next.”

“Liu Tong, what do I do?” Monkey did not think he could survive that attack. Liu Tong bit the tip of his tongue to remain sober as he felt fear and hatred overwhelm his senses. He analyzed the situation, thinking of countermeasures.

“Keep calm and always be on guard. If your past self can block the attack, you can survive.” Although this was the truth, how would the past self know when someone would attack it? Moreover, which past self? One minute ago? Five minutes ago? Or maybe, even years from the past?please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

“Use your Grand Dao Source to disturb the space-time around you,” added Lie Tong.

‘Really a decent talent,’ thought Wang Wei. Although this tactic would not work on him because of his high mastery of Time Law, it might work on some other Dao Lord or someone with an Innate Time Treasure like Huang Yuan. After all, there is a reason why some Dao are considered Outlaws and others are not.

Wang Wei took out his Proving Dao Artifact, which turned into a large sword. The Dharma Body held it, and his Daor Heart changed to that of a supreme swordsman dedicated to the sword.

[Fate Slashing]

Monkey looked horrified as he saw his life flash before his eyes. Luckily, he had millions of years of experience, so he used his Saber Grand Dao Source to use a defensive technique.

Ding Hua acted even faster than him as she flew and arrived next to him in an instant; she had never flown with such speed in her life. She held him by the back of his neck and evaded the slash. 

“No living thing can escape its fate,” said the Dharma Body, and it was right. The attack was not directed at Monkey but at his fate line. As such, a grey line suddenly appeared, connected to him. The slash cut off the line, and Monkey closed his eyes.

“He’s dead?” asked Ding Hua, confused as she used different means to check the latter’s body.

Liu Tong trembled as he did not know how to answer her.

‘Were done.’ That’s the only thing on his mind. He should have guessed this outcome when the battle began. The opponent messed up their minds through his words. With such a state, they could not respond normally or use the thousands of tactics and formations they’ve practiced during their careers. Then, he used the overwhelming superiority of his Dao to bully them.

Wang Wei ignored them as he waved his hand to read Monkey’s disappearing fate line.

“SO, that’s how it is,” he muttered, as he finally understood why these people could interfere in another world’s Heaven Will Battle and not pay the consequences. Their hirer gave him some weird talisman that can hide from Heavenly Dao.

‘But how is that possible? I can understand hiding from Heavenly Dao, but True Heavenly Dao? What’s going on?’

His eyes landed on Ding Hua, making her tremble.

“Haaaaaa,” screamed Tie Zong. His entire body turned red as if he was a furnace. He rushed toward Wang Wei and slammed his halberd.

Bang!

Wang Wei crashed into the ground. If he did not control the force of his landing, the entire continent would have been destroyed.

‘What a powerful force,’ he thought. He only had a scratch on his arm that instantly healed. “Burning your Dao?” He could tell the baldy was burning his Dao to increase his strength. This method will result in severe injuries that could prevent him from using his Grand Dao Source for millions of years.

Or worse, it could affect his Origin and make his cultivation realm fall. By then, he would barely have the strength of 1-Leaf.

Wang Wei flew into the sky and directly confronted Tie Zong with his fleshly body to temper himself. He did not bully the latter with his Fate Dao but relied on his fleshly body and Zodiac Technique to battle. As such, he was on the losing sign for most of the fight, leading to injuries all over his body.

“Hahaha,” laughed Wang Wei out loud. “I have not fought such a satisfying fight in a while. It’s a shame.”

“What is?” asked Tie Zong with a hoarse voice and deep fear hidden in his eyes. He watched as his opponent restricted himself and used this battle as a tempering method. In this short confrontation, he witnessed the latter’s defense and strength drastically increase.

’71 Primordial Dragon Force: an increase of 1.’ In this short battle, with the constant injury and healing, his body was sublimated by 1 Primordial Dragon Force. Although it appeared to be a meager increase, he would accept any improvement in his True Power Dao.

“It’s coming,” replied Wang Wei, not caring about the terrible state of his clothes.

“What is?”

“True Heavenly Dao.”

The face of the three suddenly changed, but there was nothing they could do. An enormous eye suddenly appeared from the sky, looking at them. Everything around seemed to stop due to the presence of the eye.

‘Is this True Heavenly Dao? Although not as magnificent as Grand Dao, it’s still scary.’ Wang Wei can act arrogant before his world’s Heavenly Dao. But he did not dare in front of this one or Grand Dao.

True Heavenly Dao looked at the three before three black lightning fell from the sky and annihilated them before they could even react. Then, it disappeared as if it was never here.

‘So, their method could delay its arrival, not completely hide from it,’ thought Wang Wei. ‘I’m glad True Heavenly Dao is still active despite the blockade.’ This information was very useful to him as he knows there is still some order in the lower dimension.
