Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 472

Sun Jialong touched his face as he felt the curse on his body. He felt his vitality constantly leaving his body, weakening him. He could feel that ordinary methods could not solve this issue, so he decided to fight seriously.

The Human Destiny Sword in his hand floated in the air before fusing with his armor. Immediately afterward, the five-clawed golden dragon designed on the armor changed to nine claws.

Sun Jiaolong's aura suddenly increased. But this was not the end. A multicolored dragon came from the distance before fusing with him and further expanding his aura.

'Dynasty's Qi Luck Blessing,' thought Li Jun as he watched all this. One benefit of dynasties over sects is that they can drastically increase their strength using Qi Luck.

In comparison, sects' Qi Luck focused more on increasing cultivation speed and comprehension and blessing their disciples and elders with fortunate encounters.

Although the sect master can increase its strength with Qi Luck, the increase is nothing compared to dynasties.

Heaven and Earth focused on balance. Dynasty has this advantage over sects because they have to take care of many people, which is the primary source of Qi Luck.

Meanwhile, sects have few people compared to dynasties, and their Qi Luck most originated from having a positive image or reputation.

'It seems I have to be more serious,' thought Li Jum.

[Battle Will Armor].

A dark red armor surrounded his body, increasing his aura and overall strength and abilities. Then, the sky in the surrounding thousand kilometers turned completely red.

It was as if the Heavens themselves bled uncontrollably. And for a breath moment, Sun Jiaolong felt a hint of fear. He took a deep breath to calm down.

With the power of luck, he reduced the curse's power to a harmless level. So, without hesitation, he punched his enemy.

[Blue Dragon Fist]

An Azure dragon rushed toward Li Jun with speed countless times faster than light speed. And despite floating a dozen meters away from his opponent, he had plenty of time to analyze the attack.

'He cultivated Martial Art into the level of a Dao, combined it with the majesty of a Ruler. Furthermore, I sense a little bit of Power Dao.'

He stabbed his spear to create a blood-red dragon, which instantly overpowered Sun Jiaolong's. Additionally, the latter had to attack with a second dragon to destroy Li Jun.

Unfortunately, the moment the red dragon exploded because of the clash, it released a blinding light so bright that it was as if a star exploded. The light not only impaired Sun Jiaolong's sight but also his Divine Sense.

So, Li Jun appeared and stabbed his opponent with more than a million spears in an instant. In the first one, he realized that the armor had extraordinary protective abilities–especially with the additional blessing of luck.

So, in the second stab, Li Jun used a technique that killed luck, thus momentarily decreasing the armor's power. And from the third stabs and on, he focused all his Origin Essence, soul strength, physical force, and Slaughter Will.

Boom!

Sun Jiaolong flew away while bathing in a pool of blood. Blood constantly fell from his mouth and nose. Whether it was his armor or the helmet, they were full of cracks or holes.

Blood-red runes also appeared in all the spots where the spear stabbed him. And some parts even turned purple, indicating that a potent poison had entered his body.

Oddly though, Sun Jiaolong opened his mouth smiling. As he stood up, he dug out a spiritual medicine from the ground and swallowed it. Li Jun frowned slightly after once he identified the spiritual medicine.

Golden Cicada Ginger: a scarce healing spiritual herb that takes 9 million years to mature. It also contained mild detoxing abilities and curse removal. A single piece can bring a True Monarch on the verge of death back to life.

'The power of luck? Is this why he wanted to choose the venue for the battle?'

Li Jun moved his spear that was on his shoulder and placed the tip on the ground. Then, the surrounding forest–the remaining of it–instantly turned dull and gray; the soil became filled with Death Qi, killing everything wherever it traveled.

And from the ground, myriad things began to appear. Li Jun did not choose to manifest something like souls, ghosts, ghouls, or zombies even though the environment was most suited for these creatures.

He knew that as a Crown Prince, Sun Jiaolong had the protection of the Great Wu Dynasty's Luck and Yin Creatures are weak against all Sovereign Royal Families natural Evil Does Not Invade Physique].

So, he manifested numerous black and eerie-looking weapons made of Death Qi, rushing to destroy Sun Jiaolong. The latter did a few backflips to evade at first. However, too many weapons attacked him, so he flew into the sky.

With the spiritual herb, his injuries had instantly healed, so he had no problem with mobility. Unfortunately, this fact did not matter in the fight. As soon he flew into the sky, numerous more weapons appeared to besiege.

'Will-Manifesting Weapons?' quickly thought Sun Jiaolong as he looked at the red weapons in the sky. He also realized that his opponent used a brilliant Pseudo-Domain technique to place him in his current position.

After evading thousands of weapons, Sun Jiaolong realized that he could not continue like this, so he changed tactics.

[Yin-Yang Emperor Fist]

Two illusory dragons–one white and one black–appeared to form a shield around him, blocking the weapons. Additionally, the spherical shield extended with him as the center, pushing and destroying all the weapons attacking it.

Unfortunately, the expansion only lasted a few seconds before all the Death Qi Weapons, and Will Weapons gathered in one spot to concentrate on destroying the shield. And they did.

In less than a second, they reduced the shield's size until it only covered Sun Jiaolong's body.

Boom!

The shield exploded with dragon cries of anger and despair. Following this, more than a hundred weapons impaled Sun Jiaolong, turning him into a shish kebab meal.

Li Jun suddenly frowned as he looked at his opponent flying away. He then looked in the direction he would land. With a wave of his spear, the ground in the distance turned into an ocean of blood.

_{The latest_epi_sodes are on_the ʟɪɢʜᴛɴᴏᴠᴇʟᴡᴏʀʟᴅ.ᴄᴏᴍ website.}

Subsequently, countless enormous blood spikes rose from the ground to the sky. After traveling a few dozens of meters, they pierced the space to create cracks in the heaven.

'Damn it,' cursed Sun Jiaolong after seeing this, before landing on the ocean of blood, staining his armor.

"Is this your power of luck?" said Li Jun as he floated on top of his opponent. During the battle, he noticed a few anomalies. Whenever Sun Jiaolong was in danger of defeat or death, his body would react on instinct to save him.

To be precise, it would act as the perfect way to survive. And this was not because of his battle instinct but the power of Luck. His body will act in unexpected or lucky ways that ensure his survival.

Additionally, there is a lucky field around him that also protects him. In the last attack, Li Jun wanted to destroy his heart to incapacitate him before subduing him.

However, his swords seemed to have gone wrong and avoided the heart. With control of his ability and battle experience, Li Jun knew he would never make such a rookie mistake.

So, this was once again the power of luck acting to protect him. On everything else, the environment favored Sun Jiaolong. Li Jun guessed that there probably were many other spiritual medicines in this place that could help him in this battle.

So, he ruined the soil to prevent this from happening. Although that was a waste, it was also the most efficient method. Unfortunately, the power of luck is very unreasonable.

Li Jun noticed Sun Jiaolong was heading straight for a Secret Realm after his last attack. Most likely, something inside would allow him to escape or be victorious in this confrontation, so he blocked the entrance.

"I must say, this battle has been very disappointing so far," commented Li Jun.

"Martial Dao can use Law Resonance, making it one of the most versatile Dao in combat. And yet, your attacks are so predictable and easy to read. You have many flaws in how you move, use Origin Essence, and even control your Spiritual Strenght. And yet, your attacks are so predictable and easy to read.

"Because you know you can always survive any situation since you are a Son of Destiny, you have terrible battle intuition and response time. The way you coordinate your techniques and skills is mediocre, and the hidden arrogance inside your mind is not helping either.

"The only thing you have for you is your deep understanding of Qi Luck, how to use its Blessing to its full potential, and the fact you can remain relatively calm in any situation.

"In conclusion, your Battle Awareness is terrible."

Sun Jiaolong felt humiliated after hearing these words, so he gritted his teeth, trying to stand up. However, Li Jun only watched him with calmness.

If it were the previous him, he would never easily defeated Sun Jiaolong so easily. No matter what, the latter was still a Heaven Chosen of this Glorious Age. So, his power is not as weak as displayed.

However, Li Jun was now a new person after surviving the sect's Hidden Trials. Li Jun had to sigh when thinking of his experience over the past thousand years.

The trial was straightforward: he teleported to an ancient battlefield with countless Saint's dead bodies. He had to do two things: resist the Slaughter Aura these bodies released.

And second, fight a Will-Manifestation of their Resentment. These manifestations had all their skills and memories once they were alive.

At first, Li Jun breezed through the trial until he realized things were not so simple. After passing through the Saint's dead bodies, he arrived at the True Monarch's Section.

_{Visit ʟɪɢʜᴛɴᴏᴠᴇʟᴡᴏʀʟᴅ.ᴄᴏᴍ for a better_user experience}

After resisting their Slaughter Aura, he fought with myriad True Monarchs and defeated them one by one. Then, he arrived at the Quasi-Emperor Section. For this part, he only needed to defeat 5 of them.

During this part, Li Jun wanted to give up many times. The Slaughter Aura released by this level of cultivators was too much for his Willpower to resist, let alone defeat them in combat.

However, thinking about how useless and powerless he was in the Heavenly Abode World, he gritted his teeth and fought with his life on the line. He evolved in battle and surpassed his limits.

In the end, he passed after repeated trials and efforts.

The next stage was the Immortal-level characters. Li Jun found himself on a battlefield with numerous Venerables' dead bodies.

And he had to resist the Slaughter Intent released by these bodies. This was the most difficult challenge Li Jun faced in his life. Then, the training he did in the Pagoda kicked in.

He gritted his teeth and endured his Primordial Spirit being invaded by these Immortal-level Wills and tempered his own Battle Will and Slaughter Intent to a higher level.

And once he passed, the next trial stage involved a battle with the Will Manifestation of an Immortal Venerable. Luckily, he did not need to defeat his opponent. Instead, the manifestation would have the same strength as him, so he needed to use skills, techniques, and Battle Awareness to defeat his opponent.

Moreover, Li Jun quickly realized that these Will Manifestations were teaching him through battles, so he absorbed as much knowledge as possible. After hundreds of years of trial and error, he passed the test before going to the Dao Ancestor trial stage.

And Li Jun also passed. Although, in the process, he overdraft his lifespan and broke his foundation, he survived. Then, he discovered the horror of this trial.

The final stage was a battlefield full of Third-Class Emperor Corpses. Unfortunately, he could resist for a few seconds before passing and being teleported out of the trial.

Li Jun then wondered whether his ancestor, the Battle Maniac Emperor, killed all these Emperors or found this battlefield before making it into a trial for the sect.

Honestly, he leaned more toward the former. A few of the corpses he saw were from the Devil Race. The historical records show that the Battle Maniac Emperor woke up during the Devil Era after failing the Heaven Will Battle in the Ancient Emperor Era.

And after proving the Dao and becoming the 5th Emperor of the sect, it is recorded that he killed three of the Devil Gods before leaving for the Endless Void.

So, Li Jun theorized that he probably killed many of the Great Emperors of other Heaven Will that the Devil Race forcibly occupied. As for the reason he did not focus on the ones in his homeworld, Li Jun did not know.

After all, this was all his conjunctures with no proof.

After the trial, Li Jun received many rewards. One of the best is an Emperor Scripture called the [Military Slaughter Body Art]. From the inheritance, he knew that this was a fortunate encounter that his ancestor received in his early days.

This scripture originated from a Great Emperor in another World Community. He was once a general in the mortal world. And after stepping on the path of cultivation, he used the concept of Slaughter Aura in the military to create his scripture.

Li Jun discovered that this [Art] suited him better than the [Treasure Body Tempering] method he previously used. So, after meeting Elder Dan to deal with the issue of life span and meeting with one of Li Clan's Dao Ancestors to reset his foundation and learn the [Three Flowers Method], he used the Slaughter Aura in the trial to temper his fleshly body.

Sun Jiaolong finally stood up, the medicinal power still in his body from the Golden Cicada Ginger healed his injuries. Unfortunately, the Death Qi also blocked his regenerative capabilities.

So, he finally decided to use his trump cards.
