Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1174 Coded Message

1174 Coded Message

Red Mist Forbidden Land:

Heavenly Book opened his eyes. He opened his books and flipped through them. He soon frowned because there was no update. His senses warned him that something occurred, but he had no update. He trusted his senses, so he would not ignore this change.

'Could it be that I was about to receive more information, but someone ran interference? Or is it something else?' He raised his hand for another sacrifice, but he did not use worlds this time around. He sacrificed a few Elder Fiendgods, which were on par with Inextinguishable and Boundless Paragons - one of which had reached the peak.

A few more pages appeared in the book, but nothing significant or useful. 'Now, I'm even more interested.' He closed his Heavenly Book and summoned a second book artifact. Heavenly Book's mind entered the book and found himself in an enormous white dimension with a golden plaque with the words [Heaven Eyes] inscribed and countless floating pages.

The Heaven Eye was one of the most fearsome Information-Selling Organizations in the Chaos Universe. Most people buy or sell news/information from them because the prices of the All-Seeing Temple are ridiculous. If not for the temple's ancient history and heritage and the fact that the Heaven Eyes do not sell certain information, those Seers in the temple would have lost all their business.

The true leader of the Heaven Eye is, of course, the mighty Heavenly Book Paragon, but there are people who "control" it on the surface.

Heavenly Book looked at the floating pages and took one that was glowing, which indicated that this news was new and important.

'The Flame Emperor had a meeting with the Venerable Pill Sage? Does he want to challenge him again, or is something else at play?' Heavenly Book remembered the analysis the Heaven Eye had about the Flame Emperor. They deduced that the man had an idea for a path of transcendence and was testing it.

Heavenly Book waved his hand, and countless more pages containing information about the Flame Emperor were gathered into a booklet.

"A Transcendent Pill? A path of sublimating skills? Interesting." Although this news was indeed valuable, it was not what he was looking for, so Heavenly Book wrote instructions on the booklet and watched as it disappeared briefly before returning. Far away, the agents responsible for gathering information on the Flame Emperor and the Venerable Pill Sage received new orders.

Heavenly Book frowned before picking another page. This information was from the few agents in the Eternal Ascension World. The news was old and only said, "The two suns disappeared." The Heaven Eyes were almost everywhere, but their powers were weak in certain worlds and completely inactive in worlds with Half-Step Transcendent. In fact, these agents were there to die at the hands of these transcendences so Heavenly Book could try to gather information from the process.

'I assume if something occurred, it would have been there,' he thought. 'Should I take the risk and activate one of the agents?' As he was calculating the risks, a new page suddenly appeared in the room, and it glowed bright red, indicating the highest level of news and also an emergency.

Heavenly Book immediately read the note, and his pupils shrink. The page said: [All agents in Sector 345 died all at once and suddenly.] This news was outrageous. The Chaos Universe was too vast, so Heavenly Book knew it was impossible for him to spread to every corner. So, he made a list of the top 1 million Chaos Worlds based on their history and overall influence in the universe, divided them into sectors with as little as 1000 Chaos Worlds, and spread his Heaven Eye.

Sector 345 contained 5000 Chaos Worlds and a little over 10 trillion agents. Yet, they all died instantly and at the same time.

'Such power is not something any Paragon could do. A Half-Step Transcendent? Are they that powerful? Or was it someone even more powerful?' Heavenly Book squinted his eyes. 'More importantly, why Sector 345? Wait, wasn't it one of the worlds in that sector where the Grand Dao Son is located?'

Heavenly Book caught a hint of inspiration. 'Is Grand Dao intervening because I was about to steal his fortunate encounter? No, it wouldn't interfere with such a thing. Plus, as brilliant as it is, it would obviously hide the best fortunate encounters from my books. So, someone else intervenes, probably one of its pawns - the Cardinals.'

His eyes shone brightly. 'But why intervene?' The cardinals would not move unless ordered to, or it was beneficial to them. 'They would not dare mess or even approach the Son of Grand Dao - unless ordered.

A large piece of the puzzle finally fit together. 'Grand Dao would never place all its eggs in one basket - especially if that basket is me. In its eyes, the real enemy prepared for Wang Wei is its chosen son, and I'm just an appetizer. However, the fact it would choose one of the cardinals to either train or protect its son is further proof of Wang Wei's capabilities.'

Heavenly Book once again raises Wang Wei's danger level in his mind. 'The question now is which cardinal came? And why did it kill my man? Was it just a threat?' He had spent years searching for news about them, so he knew their names or titles, their appearances, and a few anecdotes of when they actually interfered in the Chaos Universe.

The information was barely enough to create a character profile. However, he did deduce one crucial piece of information-their desires. He predicted that all these six bastards were prisoners of their position, and they had one wish: leave that position while retaining the strength that came with it.

Heavenly Book was in deep thought, pondering which cardinal might have intervened.

'If it's for protection, Heaven, Fate, and Chaos might be the best. Heaven should provide protection to that lucky bastard in any place with a Heavenly Dao. Fate could see the danger in advance, and Chaos can also provide protection in Primordial Chaos. Hmm, by that way of thinking, the others are also useful since Time can also see the danger coming, and Samsara can just prevent his death.'

Heavenly Book granted this deduction, as it was pointless since any one of them would be a perfect bodyguard.

'Let's assume it's for training. In that case, Fate, Time, and Heaven would be the best. They all have ways to see, divine, or calculate the best training method.

'My deduction indicated that something has happened to Fate. Even if I were wrong, his Dao means he is destined to be connected to Wang Wei. Grand Dao will not send such a variable to get close to its son. So, the only choice would be between Time and Heaven.

'However, if I had to choose the best option, it would be Heaven. He would know the best training methods while also controlling luck and misfortune, which is a good training method. On top of everything else, his Dao is the most versatile, allowing for the utilization of different methods.

Heavenly Book's mind was racing. As he was deep in his analysis, another glowing paper appeared, and he swiftly read it: [All our agents were revived, except the ones in World S-345-534].

'Is this just a warning? He killed my people and revived them to show the extent of his power?' Heavenly Book frowned. 'No, something doesn't feel right.'

He pushed his soul and ability to the limit to gather every minute detail of how these agents died and revived. Too many pages to count flashed before him, and he reviewed them at an alarming speed, even for someone of his cultivation realm.

'There,' he thought. Heavenly Book found an anomaly or a pattern. He created a special ability to track the death of his subordinates, and it's countless times better than the conventional soul lamps. After analyzing this part of the information, he found that these people's revival was not instantaneous or random.

They were revived at a very specific time, and even though the difference between the revivals was infinitesimally small, we're talking about differences smaller than attoseconds, he noticed.

'Is this a secret code? Does the cardinal wish to communicate with me but don't want to alert its peers? I see. To any observers, it looked like the cardinal was sending him a warning, but in fact, it was a coded message. Interesting.'

Heavenly Book focused on the code and began deducing. He quickly realized he only found one part of the code. The exact moment the souls of these 10 trillion agents returned to their bodies, the small difference in the time that they opened their eyes, and even the rhythm of the first breath they took - these were all part of this coded message.

'Such an exquisite code - that's definitely Heaven's work,' Heavenly Book summarized while chuckling. 'I thought he despised me after what happened. I guess anything for freedom and power, right?' He focused on deciphering the code and seeing whether it was worth all this effort.
