Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1357

Chapter 1357 Vessel

Wang Wei left his fighting space, and the first thing he saw was his ancestor sitting cross-leg in the void with a weird puppet guarding her. His lips twitched, thinking how Mongke was probably suffering.

"Ancestor, what's the situation?"

Yan Hai looked at him before explaining what happened with the Elder Bark Puppet. Wang Wei frowned after hearing her explanation; this was not good news. The parasites must have been busy, so the actions of these puppets were not theirs.

Wang Wei casually destroyed the puppet and waited. He frowned after five minutes and no response. He looked at the seal in the distance. His first instinct was to start destroying it with his ancestor. After all, Mongke and Old Man Dai can still hold on for a while. However, will things be this simple? Will Supreme Unity let them act after expressing his desire to prevent them from freeing the Void Illusion Realm?

'Let's play it safe first,' Wang Wei thought. He realized that he was at an impasse, and the wrong move meant he would fail his objective — he could not fail. The liberation of the mortals was the first step to dealing with the lock. His battle with Supreme Unity had just begun, and he could not afford any failures.

So, Wang Wei shifted his focus to the remaining two battles. Old Man Dai was fine. He followed his agreement with Wang Wei to the tee. His only objective was to hold off Seven Cauldron — nothing more, nothing less. Such a battle method was aggravating for the Taoist Priest, but Old Man Dai did not care. He remained steadfast, ensuring his opponent could not free herself to aid the others.

As for Mongke? Well, he was suffering. Undead Phoenix was lost in the lust of torturing his opponent. As such, his body suffered countless minor and severe wounds but nothing that could be considered true damage. However, Wang Wei did not worry about him. In his eyes, Wang Wei saw a firm will, and more importantly, he could see Mongke was using this opportunity to increase his fighting experience.

'What should my next move be?' Wang Wei thought. Since he chose to play it first, his next move should be to free his ally so they can attack the seal together. The issue is who to help first.

'Seven Cauldron has the highest chance of something unexpected occurring,' Wang Wei analyzed. His gaze then shifted to Undead Phoenix. 'Additionally, although I already plan to use him to deal with Five Feathers, it's in my best interest for him not to be in his best state.'

If he could severely injure the Undead Phoenix and release the news to Five Feathers, it should accelerate the speed at which they confront each other. 'Unless Supreme Unity intervened, there is no way for Five Feathers to heal herself in the next 100,000 or even million Yuan Epoch. Meanwhile, I only need Undead Phoenix's injury unable to be healed in the next 100 Yuan Epochs, forcing them to fight each other. Then, he'll have no choice but to sacrifice one of his lives to heal himself.'

With a preliminary plan, Wang Wei no longer hesitated. He accessed his future wife's treasury and took out a dagger. He observed this Paragon Artifact and nodded. This item was one of the best artifacts for assassination, especially for making the target suffer.

Wang Wei then activated his [Power of Nothingness] and took the invisible characteristics of nothingness. He lurked in the unknown, waiting for the right moment to strike. According to his observation, Undead Phoenix had already lost himself. The latter's defense was at an all-time low due to how much he was "enjoying" himself torturing Mongke. However, Wang Wei still waited. He waited until the latter's emotions reached a peak, and his defense completely collapsed.

Then, he appeared behind Undead Phoenix, and his dagger pierced his back and broke his spine. The attack was simple and looked so inspiring or ordinary. However, only Wang Wei and Undead Phoenix knew how devastating that simple piercing was.

Firstly, Wang Wei's attack combined many powers, including his soul. In other words, Undead Phoenix's Paragon Soul received a terrifying blow. He would have died instantly without the Ring of White Flame surrounding his soul.

One of the True Will applications that Wang Wei learned from his future wife was to make his will similar to a curse, making it harder to remove. He did not hesitate to use it for this sneak attack. Wang Wei even added his understanding of replicating viruses to make his True Will even more challenging to deal with. As such, as soon as that attack succeeded, he knew Undead Phoenix would suffer in the future — unless he had some extraordinary means.

But even that was not everything he did. As a final gift, Wang Wei injected his power of Nothingness into Undead Phoenix's body. That alone should complicate things further.

"How…how can you do something as lowly as a sneak attack?" Undead Phoenix uttered.
