Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor 666 Third Match

Yi Lianchang floated above, showing his jagged teeth as he looked down. Beneath him was a cube-shaped barrier that contained a large ocean. Two armies fought inside that ocean: the devil and the sea race troops. 

Yi Lianchang was calm as he watched the battle since his troops used this array to change the environment and give them an advantage. The water boosted the Sea Race troops' power, allowing them a one-sided massacre.

Every time a devil died, Yi Lianchang would inhale their soul, energy, blood, and flesh. “Terrible sacrifices. Even the number cannot make up for the lack of quality. I need better sacrifices.”

He frowned as he pondered. 'I came to this place due to the fewer restrictions in the Myriad Emperor World. However, I did not expect to be even more restricted.'

Yi Lianchang waited until the battle finished and had his men close the formation and clean up. As he watched everything from above, he became irritated.

'I need an excellent sacrifice.' He then remembered the clashes between these two a while ago.

'Wang Wei: talent, strength, soul, luck, and destiny–he is the best sacrifice I could ever find in the lower dimension.' He licked his lips thinking about it.

'Although Di Tian is excellent as well, he lacks something I cannot pinpoint.' Yi Lianchang squinted his eyes. 'Luckily, I don't need to choose: I can get  my hands on both.'

He looked in the distance before muttering, “Where are they?” Suddenly, he heard indistinguishable murmurs that would drive most people to madness. “The Sloth and Lust Territory? That's very far from the Pride Territory.”

Yi Lianchang knew how long it would take him to travel from his current location to the Sloth Territory with his troops. By the time he reached his destination, the entire event might have ended.

As for waiting until after the game? He came to this place in the first place because he feared using his power in the Myriad Emperor World and being detected by some old monster or some hidden power.

Yi Lianchang looked at his entrance token for a moment before shaking his head; it was not that important since he could take it from someone else. Then, he gazed at his troops. 

His arm turned into a gargantuan octopus tentacle before slapping these soldiers into oblivion. He ignored the scream and desperation of his own men, killing them without hesitation or remorse; he only left one person alive, a general.

Yi Lianchang absorbed these people's blood, flesh, and everything of value. Then, he landed on the remaining survivor.

“Lord, why? We dedicated our lives to serving you,” asked the soldiers with tremendous pain in his voice. He dedicated his life to the lord, but it was painful to see how easily they were discarded without any purpose or explanation.

“You don't need to know,” said Yi Lianchang before making the general pass out.

“If it was not for this stupid game and its rule, you could have survived longer,” muttered Yi Lianchang before putting that general on his back. Then, he ran at full speed toward the Sloth Territory; he regretted he still could not fly with only one soldier.

Sloth Territory:

“Succes,” said Yan Liling with extreme joy as she looked at the five people who acquired the role of [Aid].

“Easier than I thought.” She never thought she only had to say a few words similar to a blessing for the game to acknowledge the change.

“Indeed. We don't have to try the other complicated methods,” added Wang Wei. If things did not succeed in the first method, he planned to establish the ceremony cultivator used to contact Heavenly Dao as a way to get the role.

“Our productivity has increased, so let's continue our journey,” he commented. Then, the group assembled the necessity before marching to the next city. Wang Wei met his first [King] in this game and became excited. Unfortunately, the latter was too weak and could not quench his thirst for battle.

As he looked at the dead [King] before him, he could only shake his head before proceeding to check his body.

“Did you find something new?” asked Li Jun, who had just finished with the city's cleanup.

“Not really. The only thing I discovered is the more powerful a devil, the higher concentration of human bloodline it contains.”

“So, your theory is correct: they use human bloodline to deal with the seal.”

“The evidence suggests as such. What I want to know is who is responsible for this idea. The Seven Ultimate Kings, the sealed Devil Gods, or someone else entirely?”

“Our lack of mobility and restriction makes it more difficult to investigate these things.”

“That's the current issue,” agreed Wang Wei before looking at his entrance token. “We only need 2 to 3 more cities before the token's activation. Then, we can head to Sloth's base to see if we can find something.”

The troops gathered all the resources from the destroyed city before moving on to their next destination. During their march, the scout suddenly returned with news.

“Enemies detected in the northeast.”

“Northeast? According to the map, no city or town is in that direction.”

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 “It is one of our own.”

“A Heaven Chosen? Who?”

“The Leader of the Divine Dao League, Fang Lijuan.”

“Her? It seems fate knew we had unfinished business,” Li Jun said with a smile. He did not immediately order the troops to go after her but contacted Wang Wei.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

“You can deal with her,” responded Wang Wei. Heavenly Dao cannot blame him if he is not the one massacring these Heaven Chosen. Furthermore, he worries about alliance and cannon fodder affecting his stamina. So, it's in his best interest to reduce the troops of his competitors.

“Danm it,” said Fang Lijuan. “I should have guessed something was wrong with that squad.” She's been fighting with this powerful legion that used guerrilla tactics, forcing her to follow them. But recently, she lost track of them and felt something was wrong. However, before she could react, her scout brought news Wang Wei's troops were nearby.

“How many troops do they have?”

“Roughly 20 million,” replied the scout.

“20 million? That's the exact number they came with. Are you saying they've barely lost any soldiers?”

“I'm only reporting what I saw.”

Fang Lijuan's eyes became red as he looked at the scout, but she did not act out as she understood this man was only doing his job. Furthermore, she knew she had to remain calm in this situation to have the slightest chance of survival.

“Do they have horses?”

“Yes.”

Fang Lijuan immediately knew running away was not an option–even if she abandoned most of her troops. 'Plus, Wang Wei can catch me as long as he's not too far from his troops.' She knew the horror of the Nine Extremity Foundation from Mo Xingyun.

Many thoughts flashed across her mind, thinking of the best way to survive this encounter. 'I should have followed Mo Xingyun's advice and come with a puppet.'

Fang Lijuan knew it was not the time to have these useless thoughts; what matters is to find a ray of life in this desperate situation.

“There is only one solution.”

She made up her mind and ordered her troops to prepare, waiting for the opponent. A few minutes later, she saw Li Jun gallantly leading his troops before her.

“If it isn't the God of War, Li Jun,” Fang Lijuan said with a sneer and blatant mockery.

“I can smell the fear from you from a mile away; I'm surprised; what have you so rattled?” countered Li Jun, and he was not lying. His recent enlightenment gave him a sixth sense of detecting emotions.

“Fear? Why would I be afraid of a loser I previously defeated?” replied Fang Lijuan with great composure despite the rapid beating of her heart.

“Interesting. Besides fear, I can sense hope and desperation from you,” said Li Jun. “So, you must have come up with a way to survive this encounter. Be direct, and I might entertain the idea.”

Fang Lijuan secretly clenched her hands; she did not like the feeling of how he could see through her.

“Fine,” she said while exhaling. “I'll be direct. I want to make a deal with you.”

“Deal? I'm listening.” Li Jun could guess what she would say next.

“A battle between the of us. If I win, I want you to let me leave–without touching my men or me,” she said, looking at Wang Wei, who seemed nonchalant about everything happening.

“And when I win?”

“IF you win, I will give you the Invisible Talisman.”

“The Invisible Talisman is now linked to your Dao. Removing it from your body would result in terrible Dao Foundation Injury. Such injury would end your cultivation path–unless you use precious resources to heal. However, with how poor your Divine Dao League is–”

“You don't have to worry about our status.” As a Heaven Chosen, she has used her Luck to drastically improve the League's situation. Nevertheless, Li Jun was correct regarding the resources to heal Dao Foundation Injury of this magnitude.

“Good proposition, but I can take the talisman from your corpse without any agreement.”

“What are you scared of? Oh, I forgot you need your master's help to do anything. What a good little dog,” she taunted with a sneer.

“You will have to do better than that,” Li Jun replied calmly.

“Fine, I'll add news about the whereabouts of the War Talisman.”

Li Jun squinted his eyes, “Are you serious?”

“I”m willing to sign a contract to prove I'm not lying,” replied Fang Lijuan. “However, I've taken measures so that only I know this information. No matter what you do, you can't get the news from me–even from my corpse.”

Li Jun pondered for a moment, “Alright. I agree to your terms.” He knew Wang Wei could not kill her, but she did not know that. So, he would use this lack of information to his advantage.

They signed the contract before beginning the battle.
