1009 Taste of the Realm (Finale)

Swish!

With an understanding of his opponent's technique, it was straightforward for Wang Wei to evade the sneak attack of the ax. However, things were not as simple as he expected. A second ax manifested out of nowhere, heading directly for his head.

His danger senses went on overdrive; he immediately knew if this attack succeeded, he might genuinely die.

Swish!

The second ax passed over his head, and Wang Wei's body was missing that part of his flesh. He did not use his absolute control over his body to scatter the atoms and subatomic particles in his head, returning them to nature as they should be.

No, he knew such an act would still result in his death - this had the ability to ignore pure matter and even directly target his soul. So, at the last minute, he turned his head into a state of void - similar to how he used his Intangibility, but at a higher level.

'Oh, that was close,' thought Wang Wei. 'I missed the thrill of dancing with death.'

He saw the disappearing ax and knew how there was a second - a duel blade, a blade of life, and one of death.

'Maybe it's not that simple.'

As soon as he had this thought, he was proven correct. Two axes attacked him, and he evaded.

However, at the correct time, a third appeared, and he evaded it, too, but a fourth materialized out of nowhere.

'I was right. Besides life and death, there is a good and evil ax.'

[Karma Mirror]

Wang Wei once read a colorful language comment on social media: "Karma is not a bitch, it's a mirror.' The netizen who posted this comment was referring to the fact that karma does not just pay us back for our actions; it reflects our choices and decisions. It's another way to say every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction.

With this comment or idea in mind, he created this technique. As expected, once the evil ax hit him, it immediately bounced back to its owner.

Old Man Nether soon realized he could no longer control his own weapon.

So, without any choice, he had to defend himself.

The black armor around him covered his entire body. Boom! The ax sent him flying back, but he was soon on his feet, perfectly intact.

'Another Empyrean Artifact?' Wang Wei was speechless. He also realized Old Man Nether was still an old fox as the armor appeared like a technique to him. Knowing his disadvantage in the weapon area, Wang Wei decided to be more aggressive.

[Freedom of Obsession] novelb1n

He used a technique that directly targeted Old Man Nether's mind. Immediately, the ancient Empyrean felt his obsession for a very long time with Samsara rapidly disappearing. He almost groaned in pleasure because of how free and liberating the entire experience felt.

After working for so long with little to no success, he finally realized how great his life would be as long as he abandoned such useless obsession.

"NOOOOOOO." His voice was so powerful that some of it leaked from the Void Battlefield seal.

'Such strong obsession,' observed Wang Wei. He thought his obsession for absolute freedom was deep, but even he had to admit Old Man Nether was probably higher than him.

"How dare you mess with my mind." Wang Wei ignored him and pointed his finger:

"No, her case is probably more severe."

The [Existence] of a Paragon is not so easy to be affected, let alone the one of a Boundless one. So, he could imagine the terror of the Ultimate Taboo.

"I need to heal, and it's now your job to protect me," he said out loud to no one. However,

someone appeared in the corner - it was another him. Before this battle, he knew the possible danger, so he used the resources needed to condense a permanent clone.

Although it only had the strength of 40% Grand Dao Source, the latter had the ability to use its full strength for a short period in an emergency.

"Do you want me to hold the court for you?" asked the clone.

"No. Let's release the news about my injury as bait. Let's see if there are some stupid people still lurking around."

"Okay. We should have visitors soon. We can begin with them."

Void Battlefield, after Wang Wei left:

A few people immediately appeared; to be precise, all the Eterna Class Powerhouses showed up - including the hidden ones from the Sea Race. They looked around with pale faces, sensing the remaining aura on this battlefield.

"Impossible," muttered one of the Sea Race, not willing to accept a new Emperor could be this powerful. Everyone gazed at him but did not say anything. Many felt that way but just had better control of themselves.

"Eminent Monk, do you know something?" asked Xu Shi, who was also pale simply due to the aura in the surroundings. Every passing second felt like she was carrying the weight of the world, and even breathing became difficult.

"Why are you asking this poor monk," said Feng Heng with some sweat on his forehead.

"You're probably one of the oldest here, and you have access to all of Buddhism's heritage. So, if you know something, don't hesitate to speak."

Feng Heng paused briefly. "You should have heard about the Ten-Fold Battle Realm?"

Xu Shi, along with everyone who was listening, nodded, both openly and secretly. Recently, with the rise of the Dream World, people have begun to compare Emperors and Eternals. As such, the concept soon became popular when individuals tried to understand why there was such a vast difference between them.

"Well, there were rumors that ten was not the limit - that there was another layer above." Feng Heng stopped talking, and the room quieted for a few seconds.

"Are you saying the Heavenly Emperor had achieved this realm, thus having battle prowess comparable to Tier 11 of the Emperor Path?"

Feng Heng did not elaborate further.

"Hey, monk, don't just speak nonsense not to reveal what you know," growled Ao Shen.

"I cannot do anything if the donor does not believe my words."

"I'll believe your words when you speak the truth."

"The truth is always so cruel, wouldn't you say so, donor?"

"You???"

"Okay, there is no point in arguing or fighting,"

butted in Xu Shi. "If we want the truth, we can just ask him."

She immediately disappeared from the place.

Everyone looked at her before following. Since they had someone to follow, why not see what happens?
