Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor-Chapter 57: Rebirth

Ji Song kept attacking with his powerful punches, while Wang Wei kept dodging them. Sweat was dripping from his forehead. These punches were so powerful that he fears that he might be destroyed if he is hit with just one of them.

However, Wang Wei did not immediately attack. He keeps dodging the attacks in order to measure the physical fitness of Ji Song, then creates a battle plan best suited for his opponent.

Meanwhile, Ji Song became increasingly more furious as Wang Wei kept dodging his kicks and punches. As such, he mocked. "Is this all your worth? If you are a man, why don't you fight head on with me."

Wang Wei smiled, took out his dagger, then said. "You can take out a weapon too if you want."

"My fists are my weapons."

"I respect that." After saying that, Wang Wei lunges towards Ji Song. He ducked to evade a punch, then plunged his knife into Ji Song's abdomen. However, the knife did not do as much damage as he imagined.

The crown prince's skin was strong and durable enough to negate much of the attack, and his iron-like muscle contracted to prevent the knife from going further in and doing more damage.

You should know, this was a knife made out of metals. Although the knife did not have any magical properties, it was still made of very durable metal as hard as iron.

Wang Wei secretly cursed the Heavy Axe Physique. This damn physique not only provides Ji Song with great strength, but also ridiculous defense. It was during these moments that Wang Wei became excited at the idea of cultivating the [Ancient Desolate Bodyrefining Scripture] and being able to build himself a more powerful body than Ji Song in the near future.

Despite the failure of his first attack, Wang Wei did not stop. He continues to evade the crown prince's attack while stabbing him or cutting him in different parts of his body. However, Ji Song always managed to evade fatal attacks to places like his eyes or brains.

In fact, Wang Wei did not want to kill Ji Song or to be precise, he could not kill him, otherwise this fight would have gone a different way. He needs to thoroughly study the crown prince in order to gain his own special physique.

Wang Wei soon realizes that his current tactic was not working at all. He ponders whether to take out a Holy or Supreme Tier magical weapon from his space ring. Although the magical abilities of the weapon will be immediately sealed, the sharpness was enough to pierce Ji Song' skin and injure him.

However, Wang Wei soon gave up this idea. He knew that if he took out such a weapon, then Ji Song could just take out a Holly or Supreme Tier weapon like armor--after all, he is also from a powerful Emperor Lineage. By doing something like this, their battle would become endless and meaningless.

As such, Wang Wei decided to change tactics. Ji Song punched with a force of more than 3000jin (1500kg). The punch hit a tree in the forest around them, destroying it and scattering it into thousands of little pieces.

Wang Wei took advantage of this brief moment to stab Ji Song again, this time hitting the same spot of the previous one. This time around, the dagger entered deeper into his muscles, drawing out a few drops of blood. This tactic seemed to be working.

With his newfound momentum, Wang Wei began to kite Ji Song, while stabbing him with his dagger repeatedly. With the mysterious state, he could always stab him in the same spot, over and over again, thus overlapping his attacks in the same place. This method allows Wang Wei to bypass the iron-like defense of Ji Song.

A few minutes into the fight, Ji Song had countless wounds all over his body. Although these wounds are not too deep, they still hurt him enough to slowly bleed, thus also slowly draining his stamina. He knew that he cannot go on like this, so he tried something new.

Ji Song concentrated all of his strength on his leg, then rushed toward Wang Wei with terrifying speed and threw a punch with all of his strength.

Wang Wei's face immediately changed, the crown prince' speed was too fast for him to respond. He could hear the sound of the punch approaching. The fist got bigger and bigger as it approached his face. All of Wang Wei' senses started screaming danger.

Wang Wei knew that he could not take this punch head on, and he also did not have enough time to evade. As such, he decided to sacrifice his right arm.

He placed his right arm in a defensive position and took the full force of the punch. Immediately afterward, Wang Wei heard the sound of his bones breaking, followed by a deep and intense pain.

He did not scream, but groaned. Then, he stomped on the ground to allow the remaining force of the punch to travel to the ground. After a few breaths, a bunch of cracks appear in the ground with Wang Wei at the center.

He vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, then looked at his broken arm and ignored it. He then transferred his dagger to his left hand and continued to fight. The battle was not yet over.

Ji Song has just used a lot of stamina in order to make such a rapid attack. His breathing became rapid and he perspired a lot. Wang Wei did not let him rest.

He used the remaining left arm and continued to stab Ji Song repeatedly. Despite the pain from his broken arm, Wang Wei did not stop.

Meanwhile, Ji Song' situation became increasingly worse with the passage of time. The adrenaline rush he had at the beginning of the fight has ended. All the wounds on his body started acting up. He was in great pain and even his vision became blurry.

Ji Song knew that if this fight continued like this, he would definitely lose. As such, he wanted to make one last final blow to end everything once for a while.

He rushed towards Wang Wei and threw a punch. When the young sect master dodged his attack and stabbed him again, Ji Song relaxed his muscles and allowed the dagger to go deep into his body.

Wang Wei became shocked with the current unpredictable moment. Before he could react, crown prince Ji Song kicked him on his side with all of his strength.

Wang Wei could hear the sound of ribs cracking as he flew away more than 20 meters. He crashed into more than 5 trees before falling into the ground. In just a few breaths, he could feel the bitter taste of blood mixed with dirt in his mouth, his ears start to ring and his vision becomes blurry.

He coughed up a pile of blood mixed with a few pieces of internal organs. Wang Wei could tell that his spinal cord might be gravely injured. He bent his neck in a direction and saw two Ji Songs in the ground like him trying to get up, it seemed that his injuries had finally gotten to him and he was about to pass out due to excessive blood loss.

Wang Wei knew that this fight was not really over. Whoever gets up first will be the final victor. As such, he tried as hard as possible to get up, however, it was to no avail.

In fact, the pain of his broken bones are nothing to Wang Wei. In the Pagoda Trial, he suffered much worse pain than this in the 18 Levels of Hell. However, the truth of the matter is, his body was not in the shape to function properly.

Wang Wei did not care about this. If he orders his body to move, then it better listens to him? His body should follow his will, not the other way around.

In fact, this is exactly what happens next. By his sheer will alone, Wang Wei managed to stand up: a broken spine and shattered rib cage would not stand in his way.

He slowly walks towards Ji Song who was still trying to get up from the ground. It took a while for the two Ji Songs to merge into one. When Wang Wei arrived in front of him, he said, " I win."

Then, with his remaining functioning left arm, he repeatedly elbows Ji Song's face until both their bodies were covered in each other's blood and the crown prince had passed out.

Then Wang Wei sat on the ground breathing heavily. This was a hard won battle.

Suddenly, he felt something and looked behind him.

The shadow of the Young Emperor finally completely materializes behind him. Wang Wei felt like his mind became more clear, he could feel the vast spirit qi dancing in the air.

A bunch of information was instilled in his head. Wang Wei finally knew what the title Young Emperor represents and what benefit he can get.

A Young Emperor is essentially a person with immense will and powerful Dao Heart that is acknowledged by Heavenly Dao as a person worthy to bear the Heaven Mandate.

In order to have the title of Young Emperor, you must have a strong Dao Heart and will at an early stage of cultivation, otherwise Heavenly Dao will not acknowledge it. As cultivators grow more powerful and experience more things in their long life, their will and Dao Heart will be tempered--and some of them will reach the minimum standard to be able to accept Heaven Will.

However, if a cultivator reached such a standard at an early stage of cultivation, then he will be rewarded the title of Young Emperor.

As for the advantages of said title, there are a few. First, a Young Emperor will have a great talent for cultivation, followed by a peak Purple Dragon Qi luck.

The greatest benefit of which is that each Young Emperor will have a Pseudo-Domain like ability. This is a great deal as only Saint Realm powerhouses can have a Domain.

As for Wang Wei, his pseudo-Domain allowed him to decrease the strength of his opponent between 15% to 50%.

This ability is not enough to make it worthy of the name "Young Emperor". What is truly heaven defying is the fact that this ability applies to any cultivator under the Great Emperor Realm.

That is to say, in front of Wang Wei, a Supreme Realm True Monarch could lose half of his strength, that is truly scary enough.
