The Human Emperor

Chapter 2053 - Destiny Body 10!

Chapter 2053: Destiny Body 10!

A human could stomp ants to death but took no special pains to do so. Firstly, it was not necessary, and secondly, the human knew that they could wipe out the entire ant nest if they so desired.

Genesis Supreme had exactly this sort of attitude.

The Great Tang was safe and sound for now, but that didn’t mean that it would be in the future, nor did it mean that those people would not take action.

If these people were not taken care of, if Wang Chong did not have the strength to contend against them, then it did not matter what glory the Great Tang obtained or how strong its soldiers were. In the end, these things would just be flowers in a mirror, a moon in the water.

This was also one of the reasons Wang Chong had not participated in the court session after Li Heng’s coronation, nor pursued Youzhou.

If he wanted to take care of An Yaluoshan, he had to take care of Genesis Supreme first.

Foremost was that he needed a breakthrough so that he could possess the ‘Grotto Heaven realm’ power of Genesis Supreme.

If I want to go from the Subtle realm to the Grotto Heaven realm, I have to approach it from various angles. Only once I’ve accumulated enough power and the water begins to flow on its own can I succeed. Until I’ve reached the proper level, breaking through will be very difficult. Trying to force things will only cause harm. The Sage Emperor stated this in his notes, and this was why he didn’t directly give me energy. In addition, he estimated that I would need at least five years after reaching the Subtle realm to just barely have a chance of breaking into the Grotto Heaven realm...

In the silence of the hall, Wang Chong raised his head, countless thoughts passing through his mind.

To go from the Subtle realm to the Grotto Heaven realm, one needed to possess extraordinary and transcendent talent to have a minuscule chance. Even the Sage Emperor had not been optimistic about his chances.

As he had not comprehended the proper principles of the world, simply pouring energy into him was useless. The Prior Heaven realms were not that simple. However, after reading the notebook, Wang Chong did not think the same way.

While the Sage Emperor was a transmigrator who also had a Stone of Destiny, there were clearly things he did not know about, or else he wouldn’t have made such a claim. If I’m lucky enough to find that item, I can definitely cut down on the time needed to reach the Grotto Heaven realm! Wang Chong quietly said to himself.

At this time, he recalled an object from the apocalyptic era that everyone could have described in great detail.

A divine embryo!

As the calamity descended and the world’s foundation began to crumble, many strange things began to happen to the earth, and many things were unearthed that normally would have never appeared.

Amongst all these incredible developments, the divine embryos that were exposed in the early period were the most important, and they had a thunderous reputation amongst the people of the apocalypse!

Divine embryos were not related to gods!

On the contrary, they were simply stone embryos, produced from the rocks beneath the magma layer.

As the earth crumbled, a divine embryo which had accumulated tens of thousands of years of energy and had only a one-in-one-million chance of being produced by chance was exposed.

As the divine embryo appeared, it exploded with such vast amounts of spiritual energy that even someone thousands of li away could sense it!

The appearance of that divine embryo alarmed many people, including the otherworldly invaders. Many experts, even venerable seniors, began to move toward it, and the two sides engaged in a fierce conflict.

But at the final moment, the otherworldly invader army arrived. Using foul and evil methods, they seized the chance when the divine embryo was weakest to destroy it.

Wang Chong had not taken part in that battle, but he keenly recalled the after-action report of the human world.

If they had managed to successfully seize that divine embryo, the human world would have had an unprecedented fighting force on its side!

The divine embryo had organs and blood vessels identical to a human, and the only difference was an additional orifice. This orifice was linked to the heavens and earth, allowing the divine embryo to innately ignore many limits of the world and cultivate at a far more efficient rate.

In addition, the divine embryo was bursting with spiritual energy. If used properly, it had essentially limitless potential.

Wang Chong had forgotten many things over time, but he still remembered the approximate location where the divine embryo was buried.

And there was still time until the calamity. It was basically impossible for anyone else to know of that place.

Time was limited, and Wang Chong understood that Genesis Supreme and An Yaluoshan wouldn’t let him sit around for too long. Yet if he were to leave the capital and be discovered by Genesis Supreme, he would basically be doomed.

Wang Chong needed a way to protect himself, and the fastest way to get this strength was the divine embryo!

The room was quiet as Wang Chong slowly closed his eyes and began to recollect.

If my memories are right, the divine embryo should be there.

Wang Chong opened his eyes and stared at the map of the Great Tang hanging from his wall. Briefly scanning, he soon fixed his gaze on the mountains to the north of the capital.

It wasn’t a large region, and it was so unremarkable that there wasn’t even a marker for it on the map, but this was precisely where the divine embryo was buried.

Moreover, the place was desolate and far from both the capital and Beiting, so no one paid it any attention.

Even so, the treasure was not so easily obtained.

If I want to get the divine embryo, I first have to prevent Genesis Supreme from sensing me... Wang Chong inwardly muttered to himself.

Genesis Supreme and his lot, those who called him the Child of Destruction, had probably made him their next target now that the Sage Emperor was dead.

Wang Chong was not afraid of Genesis Supreme, but he still had to prevent Genesis Supreme from discovering him while he sought the divine embryo.

Buzz!

Wang Chong swiftly communicated with the Stone of Destiny. Within his mind, a golden jewel floated, exuding a mysterious aura.

After obtaining the Sage Emperor’s Stone of Destiny Shard, Wang Chong’s Stone of Destiny had grown visibly larger.

It should be because of the Sage Emperor’s shard, Wang Chong quietly said to himself.

The translucent Stone of Destiny Shard the Sage Emperor had gifted him before his death completely overturned everything he understood about the Stone of Destiny.

Wang Chong had always believed that he was the one and only transmigrator in this world, but he knew otherwise now that he had learned the Sage Emperor’s secret.

Wang Chong had never imagined that there would be other transmigrators, other Stones of Destiny.

And during the Soul Fire upgrade process, the Stone of Destiny had called the Sage Emperor ‘Destiny Body 9’. This meant that there had been a Destiny Body 8, Destiny Body 7... perhaps even a Destiny Body 1 and Destiny Body 0. Besides that, there was an incredibly high chance that he was Destiny Body 10.

Wang Chong didn’t know what this meant or what all these people had to do with the Stone of Destiny, but there was no doubt that there was some secret behind all this.

In addition, Wang Chong had noticed that he was different from the Sage Emperor.

Although they had both transmigrated from another world, the Sage Emperor merely had a small Stone of Destiny Shard. In contrast, his Stone of Destiny was clearly much larger.

The two of them were on entirely different levels.

Destiny Body 10... Does that mean that I’m the last transmigrator? Wang Chong inwardly muttered, feeling as if his vision was whirling.

Everything he had so far was based on his speculations and conjectures. He found it impossible to determine the truth.

But Wang Chong quickly came back to his senses.

“Stone of Destiny, is there a way to conceal energy, to obscure the heavens and fool a Grotto Heaven expert like Genesis Supreme?” Wang Chong asked.

But the Stone of Destiny remained silent.

Wang Chong was quiet for a few moments. He had completely expected the Stone of Destiny’s silence. In fact, a response would have been far stranger.

But Wang Chong didn’t give up. He had sought help from the Stone of Destiny naturally because he believed there was a chance of obtaining it.

Wang Chong changed tactics.

He closed his eyes, recalling his encounter with Genesis Supreme outside the northeastern walls of the capital during the feast of all countries.

With his immense Psychic Energy, Wang Chong reconstructed the scene in his mind, including Genesis Supreme’s divine stature and overwhelming power, even the intense sense of danger and thick stench of death he and his seniors had felt when facing Genesis Supreme.

Wang Chong deliberately invoked ‘fear’, ‘anxiety’, and ‘death’ so that the Stone of Destiny could feel it all.

These emotions were no fabrication. If not for the Sage Emperor’s sudden release of energy, they might have all died to Genesis Supreme back then.

A few moments later, as expected, the Stone of Destiny responded to Wang Chong’s ‘despair’.

“Detecting intense emotional ripples! User is experiencing strong obsession and desire!

“Special Event! Power of Destiny resonating!

“Beginning assessment!

“Assessment complete. User’s current level of strength will result in 100% chance of death upon encountering target alone, with 0% chance of escape. Sensing user’s strong desire to live!

“Analyzing user’s strength. Analysis complete: user has no abilities allowing for escape from the target...”

The Stone of Destiny issued a string of messages, but the final result was unexpected.

The Stone of Destiny’s analysis stated that Wang Chong had no chance of survival and no method of countering.

Though Wang Chong was taken aback, he quickly got ahold of himself.

After some thought, Wang Chong didn’t find the conclusion too surprising. A Subtle realm fighting against a Grotto Heaven realm was too implausible. But still, Wang Chong did not give up.

He was someone who made plans before taking action. He was certain that the Stone of Destiny had a way to deal with Genesis Supreme, because the Stone of Destiny had absorbed the Sage Emperor’s Stone of Destiny Shard. The Stone of Destiny had greatly changed, with many new abilities. The most obvious of these was its ability to improve Vitalizing Ember into Soul Fire.

Such a thing had never been brought up in the past!
