Chapter 79 of "Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor" opens introducing the plot: Inside a cultivation room, Wang Wei opened his eyes and exhaled. "After more than three years,... Continue exploring!

Inside a cultivation room, Wang Wei opened his eyes and exhaled. "After more than three years, I have finally reached the Peak of Ocean Origin. Who knew that having such a powerful foundation will actually slow down my cultivation speed." However, Wang Wei did not care about the long process of cultivating. As a Divine Sea Realm cultivator, he has 300 years of lifespan, 100 years more than the Body Refining Realm. Furthermore, his Fate Puppeteer Physique provided him with an extra 200 years of lifespan. After saying this, he stood up and started moving, his body cracked due to the stiffness of sitting cross-legged for a long period of time. Then, Wang Wei started mobilizing his origin qi. He easily compressed it, turned it into cone shape to increase penetration, then transformed it into waves to overlap strength. This was the result of his countless fight against the young emperor clone in the Battle Tower. However, the will of the real Great Emperor never manifested again. Wang Wei thought it was a bummer. He could probably learn a lot of secrets from the Battle Maniac Emperor. After finishing exercising his origin qi, Wang Wei walked out and headed towards his resting room, however the entire room was filled with talismans and documents. Wang Wei looked at the mess and sighed, "I could not find any information whatsoever about Paragon." Even his father and grandfather had never heard anything regarding Paragons. After explaining his experience in the tower, both of them were quite surprised and happy at the thought that the Great Emperors of their sect might be alive somewhere out there. His father and grandfather ran back to the Battle Tower to check, but they found nothing. However, this news did not affect their enthusiasm. Knowing that the sect has an existing powerful backer is more than enough for them. Nevertheless, the news about the Emperor's manifestation became the highest secrets of the sect known only to the Wang Family--meaning just Wang Wei's family of four--and the heads of the other two families: Great Elders Yan Mei and Li Jiang. As for Wang Wei's concern regarding "Paragons", they concluded that this might be the highest secrets known only to existence at the level of Great Emperors. Of course Wang Wei did not tell them the fact that the term "Paragon" was related to his soul, he just told them that the Battle Maniac Emperor mentioned it during their conversation. ... Wang Wei called a maid to return all these documents back to the library. At this point, his search has proven to be futile. Wang Wei decided to take a break. In the past three years, all he did was just cultivate and fight. He needed to relax for a while. Just as he was thinking about what to do for entertainment, one of his communication talismans lit up: it was a message from Li Jun. Knowing that he was not busy cultivating, Wang We invited him to drink together. A few minutes later, Li Jun flew to the Wang Family Mansion with a flying talisman. He easily navigated through the complex mansion, heading straight to Wang Wei's resting room. In his way, Li Jun said hello to a few maids, who will always answer him back with a blushing face. One of the things that the maids working in the manor like to see was the handsome face and smile of young master Li Jun when he came to the manor. Although their young master is more handsome, however, the maids always felt pressure when facing him. After a few minutes, Li Jun arrived in the room and met with Wang Wei with a smile on his face. He said hello to him and found a place to sit down. Wang Wei looked at Li Jun up and down. First thing he noticed was the fact that his cultivation was also in the Ocean of Origin. And he was not far from the Peak. However, he was not surprised by this. After all, Li Jun did possessed the #20 Battle Maniac Physique. The second thing that Wang Wei noticed was the fact Li Jun did indeed somewhat resemble the Battle Maniac Emperor--especially the eyebrows. However, unlike the emperor, Li Jun's fierce fighting intent was emanating out of his body at all times, while the Battle Maniac Emperor's was hidden deep in his eyes. "It seems that you have not been able to fully control the [Heaven Fighting Scripture]." Li Jun smiled wryly and answered, "Big brother, not everyone is like you and can easily understand and control an Emperor Level Scripture." "What can I say, I was gifted by Heaven. Alright, come, throw your most powerful punch. I want to see your progress the past years." After saying this, Wang Wei motioned Li Jun to attack him, and he did so. Li Jun gathered a lot of his origin qi in his hand, which turned red in color. Then with all his force, threw a punch. Wang Wei gathered his powerful origin and blocked the punch. The collision of the two shook the air, the powerful aftershock of their clash destroyed all the tables and decorations of the room. However, none of them paid attention to this. Wang Wei observed Li Jun' strength, then frowned. He could tell that Li Jun has a very deep foundation and has cultivated the [Nine Nirvana Blood Qi] to at least the 6th Nirvana. In the entire sect, his strength was probably only second to him in the same realm. However, his use of origin qi was quite rough and primitive. If it was three years ago, maybe Wang Wei might not have noticed, but now he was different. "Did you not go to the Battle Tower after you breakthrough the Divine Sea Realm?" "No big brother. I had to go to a secret realm trial with all the outer disciples of the sect. I had to continue training all the subordinates I brought from the Spirit Road and also recruited new people. The sect told me to prepare in advance as we may soon need them." Wang Wei frowned and realized it was indeed time for him and Li Jun to leave the sect for a necessary trial. In that trial, he might need an army and Li Jun is in charge of training it. "When you have time, visit the Battle Tower to train. You can fight directly with a clone left by your clan's ancestor. He is the best teacher to learn how to properly control the [Heaven Fighting Scripture]." Li Jun nodded his head. He could feel that his big brother was not too pleased about his progress. However, he did not mind. Although in the past years he managed to easily suppress his peers and had garnered all types of praise from his family, he knew that he was completely not his big brother's opponent. This idea became more firm after he cultivated the [Nine Nirvana Blood Qi]. He knew how powerful and precious such technique was. After his big brother cultivated it, he did not hide it for himself, but asked the Elders of the sect to spend countless resources to allow him to cultivate it as well in order to increase his strength. Li Jun knew that his big brother had a very high standard for him, maybe even higher than his own parents. What's more is that his big brother always believed that he could achieve these standards, even at times when he did not even believe in himself. After checking Li Jun's progress, he changed the topic: "What do you want to drink, tea or wine? I have just received a few batches of Longxue Tea if you want?" "Big brother, are you really willing to give me some of your tea? You were so stingy the last time I was here." Wang Wei's mouth twitched after hearing this. How can he not be stingy? He only gets a little bit of tea every month. If he did not save this stash for a few years, he would never share it with this guy. Li Jun--upon seeing Wang Wei-s face--immediately said, "Forget the tea. Let's have a meal with wine. I have not eaten your delicious food for quite some time." Wang Wei ignored this guy's glib tongue and went to the kitchen. The cooking in this world is indeed quite simple. Due to the fact that most cultivators spend their time in seclusion, they do not have the time or desire to spend time developing different types of culinary dishes. As for mortals, as long as their stomachs are full, they don't really care about taste. Additionally, due to bathing in spiritual qi, even ordinary animals have better taste than the ingredients back on Earth. As such, when Wang Wei started to use the dishes from his past life, even his sub-par cooking skill turned every meal he cooked extremely delicious, making him quite popular in his family during dinner time. He had to teach the maids and chef in the Manor how to cook in order to extricate himself from the constant labor of going to the kitchen. Even his mother learned from him at one point. After a few minutes, all the food was ready. Both Wang Wei and Li Jun picked up their chopsticks and started eating. The food was indeed delicious. This time, Wang Wei used the fire spell to perfectly control the temperature of the ingredients when cooking. As such, his skills have sublimated. While eating, Wang Wei suddenly asked, "How is your relationship with Yan Liling going?" Li Jun was a little surprised by the question, but he still answered: "It is going quite great actually." Then a smile appeared on his face. Wang Wei placed down his chopsticks, took a mouthful of wine and said. "You have been with me for a long time. As such, you should be aware of the political machinations of the sect. Are you sure about this?" Li Jun's hand that was about to place food in his mouth suddenly stopped. After more than a minute, he continued eating and said with the corner of his mouth raised. "As long as there is love between us, then everything else is fine." "Well, it is your private life. As long as you do not regret it in the end, you can do whatever you want. However, if you do not want to, with me here, no one can force you." After that, the two of them continued eating and talking about other topics, simply ignoring their previous heavy conversation.
