Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 938 Rise of Mortals (Finale)

(Unedited Chapter)

Wang Wei finally arrived in the north and immediately noticed the difference. The Spiritual Qi in nature was not as dwindling as it used to. Although it has not reached the same level as the weakest of the four continents–the West–it was not higher than the islands scattered between the continents that loose cultivators mostly habit.

The Northern Continent was now a veritable place of cultivation for a Heaven-Will World. With Ao Shen as its protector, the demon race no longer has to rely on the Dao Opening Sect to scare away the other factions and prevent them from messing up the situation of the North.

'The demon race has entered an era of prosperity. The only problem is whether Ao Shen can leave enough foundation for them to retain such prosperity,' thought Wang Wei before beginning his tour of the North.

His first observation was that every human was walking in the street with a demon. The Flying Horse Carriage, the Dragon Crawling Construct, and even the Soaring Phoenix Constructs were all designed to include both humans and demons.

'Interesting,' thought Wang Wei as he guessed the situation of the north. He went to a school for humans. Today was a special day for these 10 year-old children. All of them looked excited and kept talking, to the point the teacher just gave up accomplishing anything in class.

The word [Awakening Ceremony] was everywhere, and Wang Wei secretly watched everything without intervening. When the time arrived, all the children headed to a large stadium in the school.

At the center was a large formation engraved on the floor. An adult brought the first child in the middle of the array. The child looked nervous and excited. He stood in the middle and waited.

A few minutes later, bright light enveloped the formation, and a creature appeared beside him. It was a Wind Bunny, a demonic beast that had just awakened its bloodline and acquired basic intelligence.

The bunny looked around before pausing at the child. It was from the Demon School and knew not to easily attack humans.

The formation continued to release brilliant lights. Finally, a marking appeared on the Wind Bunny's forehead and on the child's right hand. Immediately afterward, the confusing look on the bunny's eyes disappeared, replaced by more intelligent eyes.

Meanwhile, the child was excited and jumped before being shocked. That's because he easily jumped more than ten meters in the air and landed without any problem.

"Lei Fan, Physical Attributes," yelled the teacher in charge of the ceremony. Then, the next child appeared. The creature that appeared before him was a crow with blue eyes. As soon as the mark appeared on the child's hand, a pressure released from his body that gave the illusion the surrounding space was twisted.

"Xia Fu, Mental Attribute," yelled the teacher, and many people looked at the child with envy and desire. They knew this person would be an [Extraordinary Citizens] with high status. The teacher called the next children, and she was also a Physical Attribute.

Wang Wei's eyes brightened:

'A symbiotic relationship between humans and demons. Humans can acquire physical or spiritual power from demons, while demons will raise their intelligence. What a great civilization.'

Wang Wei could see the advantages and disadvantages of such a civilization. The humans of the north will be more powerful than normal humans from other continents–especially in the martial arts department. They will have longer lifespans, with normal citizens living up to 200 years and Extraordinary Citizens living up to 350 years.

However, there is also a fatal disadvantage. If something happens to the demon, the humans will suffer tremendous backlash and have a 95% chance of dying. The situation is also reversed for demons–unless the human dies of old age.

'Ao Shen's method is quite ingenious.'

Demonic beasts or demons with pure bloodlines do not belong to mortals. The mortal version of demons are regular animals who have not awakened their wisdom and bloodline. As such, demonic beasts have a longer lifespan than humans because of their bloodline and because they are cultivators.

As such, the majority of these demons who have placed a bond with their human counterpart will outlive their partners. With the contract, their intelligence increased, making cultivation in the early stages easier. Furthermore, they can use the human race's Qi Luck to nourish the demon race.

'This is not just the benefit they will receive. The demon race does not have the talent or ingenuity for Professions like Pill Refining and Talisman Making. However, with their human partners, this problem will be solved.'

Wang Wei looked in the distance and saw the demon race's Professions began to prosper. Beforehand, the demon race was only involved in the selling of materials. But now, they started selling low-level pills, weapons, talismans, and arrays.

The Body Tempering Realm requires pills that increase Blood Qi, and the best pills for this realm use the demon race's body and blood as the main material. The demon race had the advantage, so they have taken over the majority of the market for Body Tempering Pills.

'The Divine Body Realm also requires tempering the body. If they play their cards well, they might take a big share of the market. However, the battle for such a market will not be as simple as the low-level one.'

There are more Body Tempering Realm cultivators in this world than Divine Body Realm. However, the pill value of each realm is a world apart. As such, most factions will not allow the demon race to take part in their benefit without a significant fight. Unless the demon race creates a truly unique pill for the Divine Body Realm, they have little to no chance to enter this market.

'Well, it's not like they won't have a chance,' thought Wang Wei. Once the environment changes, everything will be reshuffled, and this will be Ao Shen's opportunity.

Wang Wei's tour of the north was coming to an end, so he checked out the food. Given their relationship with demonic beasts, he thought the mortals of this place would have an aversion to eating animal meat. However, he was wrong.

It seems whether it was humans or the demon race, they treated animals with no intelligence or bloodline as a completely different species. Their main culinary expertise involved all kinds of meat dishes, and Wang Wei enjoyed himself.

In the end, he still had two designations left to check out, and he chose the sea to see how the Sea Race adapted to the changes of the world.

Soon, Wang Wei was not happy. He learned the process of entering the Sea Race's territory was extremely difficult and required a long process. So, if he wanted to enter the sea, he had to do so through his sect, the Loose Cultivator Alliance, or the Sword Casting Villa's territory.

'These people are so stubborn. It seems I need to show them some color in the next meeting,' thought Wang Wei, who used his power to directly teleport to the Sea Race's territory.

Wang Wei immediately saw what kind of mortal civilization the Sea Race people created as he watched the people around him.

He saw a human that was easily breathing underwater without any issues. He saw another human with fins and gills. There were other humans with sea race characteristics, allowing them to live and thrive underwater.

'So, they injected Sea Race Bloodline into ordinary humans, trying to assimilate them into their clan?' thought Wang Wei before shaking his head. 'What a stupid method.'

Humans are the protagonists of the world, meaning luck and destiny are on their side. The sea was a haven for the Sea Race because normal humans could not live there, but now, they made that possible.

With human reproductive abilities, it's only a matter of time before they become the dominant population. Then, after these Underwater Humans cultivate a few Great Emperors and even an Eternal Emperor, then the Sea Race's dominance of the sea will be over.

The Sea Race's situation is similar to the Di Clan in the West. They might want to include these new humans into their faction, but their clan only trusts members of the same race or bloodline, making it impossible for them to be inclusive. 

As such, it's only a matter of time before contradictions between these two races occur.

'Let's help these new humans,' thought Wang Wei as he flicked his hand. He connected the destiny of the New Humans to the Qi Luck of the Human Race, officially accepting their identity as humans instead of the Sea Race. From now on, the Sea Race cannot secretly manipulate their destiny and make them a part of their race–these people are humans, and no one can change that.

'Now, I only need to make sure these humans are not discriminated against in the future, and they can contribute to the human race's luck and prosperity.'

Wang Wei was happy with his work and checked out the other Sea Territories. The area controlled by the Dao Opening Sect, the Loose Cultivator Alliance, and the Sword Casting Villa are not much different than he expected.

They used arrays to create areas under the sea where normal humans could live and thrive. Spiritual Runes were used as the core of civilization; the only difference is Water and Yin Spiritual Runes are often used. Furthermore, with the many Yin Resources of the sea, there are many ways to awaken Spiritual Powers for mortals, making their number of [Extraordinary Citizens] extremely large.

Wang Wei's last destination was the Heavenly Tree Village; this place had a special place in his heart. He arrived invisibly because he knew the village had passed on his pictures, treating them as one of the ancestors of the village. If he showed up, the entire village would stop whatever they were doing and celebrate his arrival.

The village had both changed and remained the same. It was still divided into inner and outer areas. The outer area had changed with a Spiritual Rune Civilization thriving.

Meanwhile, the inner area resembled a village from the old time, a village that was "backward." Mortals and cultivators cultivated the land the old-fashioned way instead of using Spiritual Runes, puppets, and constructs to help.

Wang Wei saw a Weapon refiner that was quite accomplished in the outside world, teaching a bunch of mortal teenagers about blacksmithing; he looked like an old man in the village who had spent his entire life in the forgery and not a powerful cultivator who could refine Quasi-Emperor Artifacts that are worth more than everything in this village.

This person was not the only one. Wang Wei saw cultivators of different realms everywhere in the village. Some were in the farms planting, others carried water, raised cattle, built houses, or even hunting.

Wang Wei watched everything before raising his hand to materialize a scripture:

[Mortal Dust Heart Refining Art].

'Interesting,' thought Wang Wei as he flipped through the village's main cultivation technique. Although it only reached the level of a Quasi-Emperor, the technique was unique.

'Using the Dao Heart to control and wield the law instead of the soul. The idea is brilliant.'

Wang Wei has always believed that the Dao Heart, like Willpower and obsessions, is one of the powers in this universe that could create miracles. Unfortunately, he lacked the knowledge and deep understanding of Dao Heart to fully utilize its capabilities.

'However, there are still some flaws,' thought Wang Wei.

He took a moment to correct the flaws he saw before returning to the technique. A brilliant light appeared in the village's ancestral hall, alarming every cultivator. They rushed to the hall and saw Wang Wei's new and improved technique.

Some people immediately realized he had come, so they had a celebration, thanking the ancestors–the Heavenly Emperor.

Wang Wei smiled and was about to leave.

'Huh? A little mouse is trying to sneak in?'contemporary romance

His projection immediately disappeared from the village.
