The Human Emperor (1-200)

C43: 5 Rewards

When such thoughts flashed across Wang Chong’s mind, he heard the impassive mechanical voice in his mind once more:

【Those who help themselves are helped by the heavens. Only those who control their own destiny are favored by destiny. In the normal world, you have already died and the Stone of Destiny had only managed to vie for a year of life for you. Only by gathering a sufficient amount of Destiny Energy can you extend your lifespan to stand against the bindings of the world and accomplish your mission!】

Along with the voice, lights and shadows flashed across Wang Chong’s sight and he suddenly saw his own soul. It was a fragmented soul formed into an entire whole by thousands of fragments

There was a unique energy between these fragments that bound them together like threads. It appeared as though the fragments were healing under the effects of the unique energy…

“So that’s the case…”

Looking at his soul, Wang Chong felt bitterness in his heart. He suddenly realized that he had truly died once, and these fragments of his soul served as the best evidence.

It was no wonder that the voice said that he only had a year to live.

【Warning: The first World Constraint will come within the first month. Remaining days: 9.】

【Warning: The World Constraint will damage your body and soul, as well as shave off your lifespan until your death. Every time you successfully ward off the World Constraint, your body would be strengthened! At the same time, your lifespan will be extended by a small sum.】

【Warning: The first World Constraint would require 20 Destiny Points to be ward off. You currently possess 50 Destiny Points!】

…

A series of warnings echoed in his brain. Along with the impassive mechanical voice, Wang Chong managed to get hold of more information.

Scanning through the information in his mind, Wang Chong fell into deep thought while sitting on his bed.

It seemed like reversing space-time wasn’t as easy a task as he thought.

Even though the mysterious ‘Stone of Destiny’ possessed incredible space-time abilities, reversing space-time still expended a great amount of its strength.

Wang Chong had to rely on himself for the rest.

Changing the destiny of a world turned out to be much difficult that he had thought. To this world, he was a foreigner, an ‘enemy’ of the world.

Furthermore, other than facing the ‘enemies’ of destiny, he also had to deal with the enemy called ‘world’. If he failed, he would be damned!

This was what the information had been trying to convey to him.

On this ‘path’, there was nowhere for him to retreat to!

——This was the price mentioned by the Stone of Destiny!

Fortunately, the Stone of Destiny had also pointed out a path for him. Every time he managed to overcome the World Constraint, or rather, the punishment of the world, his body would be strengthened.

Perhaps when he grew sufficiently strong, he would be able to neglect the World Constraint altogether.

——This was his only hope!

“Even though I have no idea in what form the World Constraint would come in, if I only require 20 Destiny Energy to ward it off, then I should possess a sufficient amount. Just that, I wonder if there’s anything I can do with the remaining 30 Destiny Energy.
