1Chapter 922: Alter The Future

5Zhong Yue looked at this ruler of Dark Age, a being who was both a celestial and a demon. He had two faces, one of a male and another the female. The male face was extremely handsome, shaming all males and the female face was so pretty that even the prettiest lady could only cover her own face in shame.
6
7Great Si Ming.
8
9The first life born into the universe, the first innate celestial god and innate demon god and the one that controlled the Dao of life!
10
11He was the source of all life and the ruler of life!
12
13Zhong Yue recollected his thoughts and said, "My ancestor is the son of Yanzi Clan, the Fuxi Celestial Race. The Yanzi Clan Sui Sovereign created the Fire Order Era, the Fuxi Celestial Race created the Earth Order Era and right now, we're in the God Order Era. Great Si Ming, it has been almost 2 million years since your reign."
14
15"I know. After trying to learn what happened after my time, I noticed that whatever happened after my time was hidden away and altered as if someone in this universe wanted to erase their dark history in order to make themselves look good. However, their attempts are futile in my eyes. I can peer into the river of time to learn everything happened throughout these years. They may be able to erase recorded history but they can never erase past."
16
17Zhong Yue was dumbstruck at such power that Great Si Ming displayed.
18
19Great Si Ming was actually able to look into the river of time and observe everything that had happened. Such an ability was something Zhong Yue had never heard of!
20
21Great Si Ming continued, "Time is really a very powerful enemy. It has buried countless talents and even after I woke up, the son of the dragon and snake that even I admire greatly had passed away. However, his very existence created such a glorious era, allowing mortals to take the center stage of the universe. He is really impressive!"
22
23"Do you know anything about this star beneath me?" asked Great Si Ming suddenly.
24
25Zhong Yue shook his head in confusion. This star's location was just too good that it was only a little below the Imperial Star. So it was very odd that there was no one here.
26
27"This, is the future of the Imperial Star."
28
29Great Si Ming gradually said, "With the fall of each era, the Imperial Star will waver and eventually die out and a new Imperial Star will rise. If you have the ability to look into the river of time, you will notice that the Imperial Star in the Fire, Earth and God Order Era were all different. When the era changed, so did the star."
30
31Out of nowhere, Xin Huo, who was in Zhong Yue's psyche ocean nodded, "Indeed. The Imperial Star in the Fire Order Era was a different one from the Earth Order Era's. The one right now is also a different one from the previous era. The Imperial Star in the Earth Order Era had turned into the State of Heavenly River we know right now. If he is not wrong, this future Imperial Star is extremely significant!"
32
33This information shook Zhong Yue; if the Earth Order Era's Imperial Star turned into the State of Heavenly River where the remaining of Fuxi Celestial Race resided, did that mean that the Fuxi Celestial Race's fate was still there?
34
35After all, Fuxi Celestial Race was the representative of the Earth Order Era and the Imperial Star was the symbol of Earth Order Era, the existence of the Fuxi was the extension of fate, which also meant that the Earth Order Era had yet to come to an end?
36
37Great Si Ming, on the other hand, stared right into Zhong Yue's forehead as if he heard Xin Huo's voice and saw Xin Huo, "How intriguing, interesting soul and spirit. The fire of inheritance created by the Sui Sovereign is indeed extraordinary."
38
39He continued, "Right now, this future Imperial Star has yet to fully grown but it will replace the Imperial Star of this era. Whoever occupies this place first will have the upper hand in the future!"
40
41Zhong Yue's heart tightened right away and he started examining this star; as if it had life in it, when Zhong Yue carefully examined it, he felt that this star was breathing and growing as time passed!
42
43"Then why are there no lives here?" asked Zhong Yue.
44
45"The future Imperial Star is not a place that anybody can locate easily," said Great Si Ming with a smile.
46
47Hearing this, Zhong Yue immediately flew towards the outer skies and just as he flew out from the star's forcefield. Zhong Yue was caught off guard by what he saw; he saw himself flying out from a speck of tiny dust floating lonely in the universe.
48
49The future Imperial Star was actually just a speck of dust!
50
51Previously when he was still in the star, how massive the star was words can not describe but it became a speck of dust when Zhong Yue left the star.
52
53And when he started flying back to the dust, it slowly enlarged as he got closer.
54
55Upon seeing Zhong Yue's return, Great Si Ming laughed and said, "Now do you understand? The star is protecting himself by twisting the space, making it tough to find. Only the future Heavenly Monarch can find this star and enter it. You are the future Heavenly Monarch and I saw your future! This star is your future Imperial Star and where you will die!"
56
57Zhong Yue's mind flinched greatly as his purpose here was to learn about his future!
58
59Great Si Ming had Long Zhi handing Zhong Yue a scroll with a picture drawn, a picture that was related to his future!
60
61And that picture, was the picture of him dying fighting!
62
63A picture where he was beheaded by a light stream!
64
65One that depicted the empire he created being destroyed, his friends and his comrades being killed alongside him!
66
67Whatever was drawn in the scroll was the exact same thing projected by the future's river of time when he traveled towards Heaven Suppression Palace in the ancient ship.
68
69Back then, even though Zhong Yue told Yin Fanxuan that the future could be altered, the projection still bothered him to a certain extent.
70
71Hence, that scroll convinced him to follow Long Zhi to meet Great Si Ming even though it risked exposing himself!
72
73"Can the future be altered?" asked Zhong Yue with a sore voice.
74
75"The future I saw about you in the river of time did not change even until now."
76
77Great Si Ming shook and said, "No matter what choices you made, they are all decided by fate, everything will progress as planned. You will eventually find this star, get closer to the throne step by step until you sit on the throne. When you are at the pinnacle, you will be killed. All your hard work right now, everything you worked so hard for was all leading you to this end."
78
79Zhong Yue kept quiet for a moment and he suddenly burst out laughing, "If I am destined to walk into the tragic death, then why did Great Si Ming summon me?"
80
81"To change the future!"
82
83Fire flickered in Great Si Ming's eyes as he said, "To change both our futures!"
84
85He spoke in an invisible tone, with a voice that astonished souls, "I do not accept that the future cannot be changed! It is impossible that everything is decided since the very beginning and I am confident that I can change my future and flip the table around! Now, I am preparing to cooperate with the future Heavenly Monarch to change this so-called destiny!"
86
87"How?" followed up by Zhong Yue.
88
89From Great Si Ming's mouth suddenly came obscure Dao language that possessed incredible power, roared across the skies and when the Dao language was spoken, the future Imperial Star beneath their feet twisted, crumbled and shattered!
90
91Zhong Yue was shocked by what happened; this unique star plunged into chaos in an instant, rampaging earth, wind, fire and water elements rose and just like an apocalypse, everything fell apart, turn into chaos before vanishing completely.
92
93In the next moment, the entire star turned into dust as it was entirely destroyed by Great Si Ming!
94
95Zhong Yue was in awe entirely and at the same time, he felt that a vague connection between him and this star shattered.
96
97"This, this is the first step to changing the future!"
98
99After completely destroying this future Imperial Star, Great Si Ming raised his hands and shouted, "With this star destroyed, you are completely denied of it! You will not find it anymore, or become the new Heavenly Monarch, and you will not build an empire here! The future is not absolute! Now, you can change it when you find the crucial turning point! Fuxi, what do you think?"
100
101"Impressive!"
102
103Zhong Yue was amazed by the presence emitted by Great Si Ming, which had him shouted, "I will join you!"
104
105Great Si Ming gave him a smile and said, "I have something to tell you still. According to the future we both saw, you are most likely killed at your pinnacle, and you won't be killed no matter what kind of nonsense you pull off before your pinnacle. However, with the future Imperial Star destroyed, your path has now become an unpredictable one and you might lose your life anytime."
106
107Zhong Yue burst out laughing and replied, "Which also means that my fate is my own very own hands! My life is mine and no one shall have control over my life, not even Heaven!"
108
109Great Si Ming nodded, "Heed my warning, your path is a path of danger and unknowns."
110
111Zhong Yue, however, did not seem to care about this. He felt incredibly good and relieved. Suddenly, he thought of something and quickly asked, "Great Si Ming, you are a powerful innate god and I am just a puny postnatal mortal in the Heavenly Deity level. What made you want to ally with me."
112
113"For we share the same enemy."
114
115Great Si Ming replied calmly, "Not to mention that you are a future Heavenly Monarch. So what if you are a mortal? Ever since meeting with Great Sui, I have never once looked down on any postnate since someone as powerful as Great Sui could appear among them. For now, I do not require your help but it does not mean that I won't be needing your help in the future!"
116
117Zhong Yue felt extremely proud right now as he thought, Fighting alongside Great Si Ming? With someone that intimate everyone? Why not!
118
119Great Si Ming then waved his hand and a mirror appeared before them, "I won't hold you back any longer. I've shattered this future Imperial Star and it is most likely that "Heaven" realized what has happened. This place is not safe anymore."
120
121With a nod, Zhong Yue walked into the mirror before Long Zhi followed suit and the mirror disappeared after the two of them entered it.
122
123Great Si Ming, on the other hand, remained silent and with a soft wave, a picture appeared in the air.
124
125The picture was the future that he saw for himself.
126
127A picture where he too, died in the future.
128
129At his pinnacle where he was about to slay his foes, he was decimated by a light stream, one that was entirely the same as the one that killed Zhong Yue.
130
131This time, his death in the future, he had no friends with him and no revival Dao language left by his Deity Kings subordinates, which resulted in an absolute death.
132
133The future can be changed, it can be changed for sure!
134
135His body flickered by an inch and vanished from the scene in a blink of an eye.
136
137The turning point of his future is this future Imperial Star and the turning point of my future is him!
138
139Just as he left, space trembled vigorously as a huge eyeball squeezed its way out from the dimension. This eyeball was filled with red veins and it rolled around, patrolling the surroundings before disappearing again.
140
141Strange… Where did the future Imperial Star go?"
142
143A voice murmured in confusion.
144
145Chapter 923: Hundun's Gift
146
147
148
149After the eyeball's disappearance, another eyeball appeared.
150
151"This future Imperial Star is a very chess piece, it is supposed to grow with its fate to serve its purpose at its fullest. How did it disappear?"
152
153The second eyeball then vanished but not before a third one appeared. This third eyeball also looked around. After that came the forth, fifth….
154
155In Chaos, Hundans swam freely in the river of time and suddenly, the many Hundans were all immobilized, trapped in the current river of time and lied before them was a piece of filthy and tainted dimension, the time flow was messed up and even these Hundans refused to enter.
156
157An ancient voice was then heard, "Living beings are causing ripples in the river of time by disrupting the future. How wonderful! Strange lives messing with the future and obstructing with the progression… This is the not first time already."
158
159The Hundans possessed the ability to swim freely in time without being affected by time, appearing at any point in the past and future.
160
161However, if the river of time's future was disrupted, the river would become filthy and tainted, preventing the Hundans from entering.
162
163"I will be going onto the land to check what has happened."
164
165...
166
167The entire Jinwu Clan was alerted by the Chaotic Divine Turtle's arrival; countless magnates charged out and they all looked at the front with an empty mind as the massive Chaotic Divine Turtle emerged from the chaos fire ocean.
168
169The Chaotic Divine Turtle continued crawling forward, but at the same time, his body was slowly changing. After a few steps, it turned into an amazing living being. Suddenly, the Chaotic Divine Turtle was shocked by his discovery and he murmured, "I might have entered the wrong timeline… I've arrived 170,000 years earlier than I should be. This time should be Dao Venerate Fu Min's era ..."
170
171He immediately wanted to return back to the chaos fire ocean but right before he could put his leg into the fire ocean, the fire instantly started burning his leg.
172
173After getting onto land, he became a creature of this universe, which no longer made him a Hundun, hence, if he entered the chaos fire ocean again, he was bound to be burned. The only way to enter again was to destroy his tainted body to purify himself.
174
175The Chaotic Divine Turtle retracted his leg and just as he was thinking about what to do, an Innate Golden Crow flew towards him before turning into a man with bird's head and three claws, he said in a shocked tone, "Brother, where did you come from? May I have the honor of knowing your name?"
176
177"The Jinwu Clan?"
178
179Chaotic Divine Turtle laughed and said, "I remember you. Since time is still early and the ripple will come only after 170,000 years later, I suppose I have some time to spare. To answer your question, I come from Chaos and you can call me Hundun."
180
181Celestial Monarch Jin Wu's eyes moved around and he invited, "Brother, the Chaos Divine Fruits on the divine tree recently have just fully ripened. If you don't mind, would you like to have a cup of tea with me? I will treat you with some of the fruits."
182
183"Gladly!" said Hundun happily.
184
185On the tree, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu treated Hundun generously, serving him with delicacies and the Chaos Divine Fruits freshly harvested from the divine tree and even had the beauties of Jinwu Clan to entertain them with dances and singings.
186
187Hundun enjoyed himself to the fullest and he kept on praising, "Back then, my life was dull and boring. I never know that there are such delicacies and such wonderful music! If I had known it earlier, I would've gotten onto the land long ago! Monarch Jin Wu, can you gift me a branch from the tree? As a token of appreciation, I will gift you a Chaos Bead that could protect you from the future catastrophic event."
188
189...
190
191The Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was struck with happiness and he immediately thanked Hundun but not before he gave Hundun a branch from the divine tree.
192
193In turn, Hundun gave the Celestial Monarch Jin Wu a Chaos Bead and the monarch said, "Since you came from Chaos, could you please tell me a little about the future?"
194
195"I'm afraid I can not share with you about what happened. All I can say is that 170,000 years later in the future, there will be someone that disrupts the time flow and create ripples."
196
197….
198
199Hundun said, "By giving you the Chaos Bead that will save your life, I have already caused some unpredictable changes in the future but fortunately, your presence has barely any impact on the future like that of a dead man, which will not impact the time flow. However, if I told you what happened in the future, the already messed up situation will worsen right away. My mission is to wait for the human that disrupted the time flow to appear. Jin Wu, you treated me with a great meal so I protected your life but if this is made known to others, you will die."
200
201"Human?"
202
203Celestial Monarch Jin Wu asked in confusion, "What race is that?"
204
205"You will know when the time comes. He will come looking for you in your territory."
206
207...
208
209170,000 years had passed since that day. Turbulence rose up within the Hundun Celestial Race, the most mysterious clan among the 24 monarch races; their grand ancestor showed himself along with a Fusang Divine Tree that blossomed alluringly, shrouding the entire sacred ground with its red rays.
210
211Ancient divinic psyches swept across the field and searched deep into the universe's void.
212
213After a moment, the grand ancestor summoned a young god from the Hundun Clan, had him bring the divine tree to him, which was later forged into a little branch and handed back over to the young god and ordered, "Hundun Yu, bring this to the Heaven Suppression Fortress and give the fruit on this branch to the human. After that, stay there and observed him in my place."
214
215"Observe him?" asked the confused young god.
216
217"Yes, observe."
218
219Hundun's grand ancestor said, "I came to this place 170,000 years ago to meet him but I'd entered the wrong timeline. The future is completely messed up, preventing me from observing him from Chaos so now, you will observe him for me by staying at his side."
220
221"Then what's with the Chaos Divine Fruit?" asked the young god.
222
223"It's a trade."
224
225The grand ancestor said, "Bribe him with this so he won't be able to chase you away."
226
227The young god asked again, "Then the tree? This tree had been planted and nurtured by you carefully for so many years, why have me bring it to him now? What's the point?"
228
229Hundun grand ancestor smiled and said, "You really are like me, as curious as me. The tree is to protect you. Now go, stop asking any questions. Go go go!"
230
231Hundun Yu was left with no choice. He immediately brought the tree with him as he left. He rushed towards Heaven Suppression Fortress but not before he returned back to the ancestor after remembering something. He turned back to the sacred ground and asked, "Grand ancestor, you want me to look for this person but who is he? I can't possibly just hand the fruit over to anybody that I come across with first! Ancestor? Hello? He is asleep again!"
232
233Hence, his question remained unanswered and the confused Hundun Yu recklessly thought, Forget it! Once arriving at the fortress, I will just give the fruit to anyone I run into first and observe him!
234
235Meanwhile in the fortress, Zhong Yue hurried the gods to forge the items and equipments for the war was about to come and with that, a fierce and tough battle!
236
237There were originally about 40 million gods in the fortress and the Hundredth Reincarnated Saint Amaryllis's scent drew in another 20 million. Though most of them left in the end, there were also some that remained in the fortress, pushing the numbers up to 50 million right now.
238
239Back then, King Zi Guang deduced that in order to secure Heaven Suppression Fortress, at least 50 million gods were required; Zhong Yue arrived with far fewer numbers than that back then and it was a huge achievement that he managed to develop the numbers to such extent.
240
241These gods were then dispatched to forge equipment like siege towers with only a purpose, to make this fortress into an impregnable fortress and their potentials were exploited to the fullest.
242
243Even so, Zhong Yue still felt that they were progressing too slowly and that there was not enough time.
244
245If Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is a cold-blooded one, he will go into his life and death cultivation right now, ignore the consequences and watched as his wife, children, subordinates and his people die.
246
247And if he really is a good leader, he will have one body enter the cultivation and another outside to fight against Heaven Court and the Heavenly Monarch to buy time for his people.
248
249His decision will be made clear to us soon!
250
251In the fortress, the 28 Heavens hung high in the skies and the powers in them were draw out to forge the equipments. Fu Qizhi, Fu Yanshan, Fu Li and the others who were considered as the main pillars of the army were all distributed with almost half of the fortress' resources.
252
253The wild humans from the ancient universe were already extremely wealth and with the addition of these resources, they were now all armed to teeth.
254
255On the other hand, the main power of Zhong Yue's Xian Tian Royal Guards were still the 8,000 Fuxi; each of them had 2,000 gods under their lead and with that, 16 million gods under the 8,000 Fuxi's command.
256
257Mu Suge's Tiger Jiao Cavalry also received some upgrades and though they were not as strong as Xian Tian Royal Guards and the human barbarians, they too, made themselves powerful enough not to be ignored.
258
259And the captivated 56 Creators were all smitten back into their original forms, chained and made into the siege weapons for the army.
260
261These Creators came in different forms and they were all equipped with heavy weapons. Aside from the eight Creators assigned to guard the gates, there were another eight of them being garrisoned on the walls while the remaining were distributed to the different divisions as vanguards.
262
263Now, the defense of the fortress was completed; outside the fortress, warships sailed in the Star River, each ship had more than ten thousand gods garrisoned, named as the Little Heavenly River Navy and placed under the command of the human female Creators Fu Wen and the others.
264
265On the walls were war chariots that charged around; there were countless chariots and on each of these chariots were a hundred gods, assigned to guard the walls and they were divided into four divisions; the North, South, East, West Alight Division that were responsible for the east Azure Dragon Gate, the south Vermillion Bird Gate, the west White Tiger Gate and the north Black Tortoise Gate.
266
267The four divisions were then led by Fu Li, Fu Shan, and two other human Creators.
268
269In the fortress, banners stood everywhere, the army was trained through friendly matches and there were also the Yu Lin Army and Hu Ben Army.
270
271After some extensive research between Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan, they had created molds for different weaponries and armories, which were then distributed to the many divisions and had them to produce these equipments hastily.
272
273Though Zhong Yue has vast knowledge in a lot of fields, he was not as good as experts in a certain field. With his capabilities, there was still no way he could entirely replicate the many divine weapons and heavy artilleries he knew but as the Innate Saint Spirit Body that was extremely sensitive to Daos, Yin Fanxuan could calculate the necessary Dao totem patterns needed for these equipments.
274
275And with Zhong Yue's extraordinary calculations, the many equipments were replicated by the husband and wife before they were handed over to the army to produce them.
276
277One day, Zhong Yue activated the ancient ship, boarded it with Yin Fanxuan, had the leaders of the army onto the ship and they started to patrol around the army to examine the results.
278
279Suddenly, there was a ruckus in the south gate and with a flick in his psyche, the ancient ship split the waves apart and headed straight towards the south gate. As they arrived, a divine general immediately came reporting, "My lord, there is a True Deity out there saying he's here with a gift for someone but he can't specify who this someone is!"
280
281Zhong Yue was surprised and he said, "Bring him in."
282
283A moment later, a warship sailed towards them and on the deck was a young god that was being immobilized by many divine generals. On the elbow of this young god was a Fusang Branch with eight flowers blossomed on it, a fruit dangling on the branch and the young god was looking around, "Is there someone reasonable enough to talk to? I am here just to present a gift!"
284
285Chapter 924: The Three Great Spiritual Roots
286
287
288
289Zhong Yue did not manage to restrain himself from laughing after hearing this. Meanwhile, the gods quickly placed the bridge, allowing this young god to board the ancient ship and that was when a divine general said with a smile, "This lord that I serve is a human, are you here to look for my lord?"
290
291The young god looked towards Zhong Yue and he scratched his head as he exclaimed, "Human? Huh! So many humans!"
292
293Those many ancient universe's wild human leaders standing beside Zhong Yue had given the young god a scare and he thought, The grand ancestor did not make it clear! There are so many of them and I only have one fruit! Who should I give it to? Besides, who am I supposed to observe….
294
295Yin Fanxuan on the other hand, was in shock upon finding out Hundun Yu's identity and she exclaimed, "This senior martial brother, you are from the Hundun Clan?"
296
297The young god scratched his head again and this time, he said, "I am Hundun Clan's Hundun Yu and I came with a Chaos Divine Fruit. If I may, who is the person in charge here?"
298
299Yin Fanxuan quickly explained, "Hundun Clan is one of the 24 monarch races and the most mysterious among them all. Their disciples are rarely seen outside of their territory and they could only be seen active whenever chaos descend onto the world. Hence, the saying that whenever Hundun Clan appeared, along with them are always chaotic war."
300
301"The world as we know now is already messed up and it will be even more messed up in the future. All of these have nothing to do with Hundun Clan."
302
303Zhong Yue laughed, "How can we push the responsibilities onto them? Brother Hundun, allow me to introduce myself. I am the Left King Yi Feng of Xian Tian Palace, the commander of Heaven Suppression Fortress, the person in charge here and at the same time, a human."
304
305Hundun Yu let out a relieved breath and he replied, "Then you are probably the person I am tasked with looking for. Now, I present you the Chaos Divine Fruit."
306
307He then harvested the fruit from the tree branch, handed it over to Zhong Yue while the many generals around Zhong Yue had their expressions changed upon this scene. Chi Song immediately whispered, "My lord, you must be cautious! You are the commander of Heaven Suppression Fortress and granted how strategic this fortress is, countless powers are bound to have their eyes on you. They will do anything to remove you if they have the chance and this might be one of their dirty trick."
308
309Zhong Yue on the other hand, took over the fruit and he was moved by what he felt; within the fruit were strange Dao patterns.
310
311"There are three spiritual roots in this universe with one being the Fusang Divine Tree, one the Innate Fruit Tree of Leizhe, and the other was the Divine Tree of Life."
312
313Hundun Yu said, "Among them, the Leizhe's Innate Fruit Tree grows the Innate Dao Fruits that each contain a type of Innate Daos wonder; the Divine Tree of Life is a prehistoric tree that was rumoured to be owned by the prehistoric ruler. The fruits from the Divine Tree of Life have the power to prolong one's age. However, the Divine Tree of Life disappeared without a sign later on but the Immortality Peach Trees were grew from the fruit harvested from the Divine Tree of Life. Thus, the fruits on the Peach Trees too, possessed similar effect as those from Divine Tree of Life. The Fusang Divine Tree on the other hand is said to be owned by Great Sui and after that, it ended up with the Jinwu Clan but the fruits grew on the tree were the Chaos Divine Fruit. This fruit that I gave you, is the fruit from Fusang Divine Tree and barely any of us from the Hundun Clan had the chance to eat it."
314
315Prehistoric ruler? Could it be Great Si Ming? He has the Divine Tree of Life?
316
317Zhong Yue examined this fruit; he had eaten the Innate Dao Fruit once and back then, when he wanted to dig out even more Chaos Qi, the tree unrooted and started running away but not before it threw an Innate Dao Fruit towards him.
318
319And though Great Si Ming's Divine Tree of Life he had not once seen, he still managed to get his hands on a peach; in the Returning Ruins when he ran into the Immortality Mother Peach Tree Ancient Mother of the Imperial Woods, he was given two peaches and other lesser peaches.
320
321Zhong Yue even made a promise with the Immortality Mother Peach Tree Ancient Mother of the Imperial Woods to meet again in the future. But ever since arriving in Zi Wei, he still didn't hear anything from Immortality Mother Peach Tree Ancient Mother of the Imperial Woods, not to mention seeing her, which led him to question if Immortality Mother Peach Tree Ancient Mother of the Imperial Woods escaped from the Returning Ruins or not.
322
323As for the Fusang Divine Tree, Zhong Yue had the chance to see it but not the chance to eat its fruit.
324
325But now, the Hundun Clan's Hundun Yu actually came looking for him and said that he wanted to present the fruit to Zhong Yue, which was really odd and sudden.
326
327Apart from that, the fruit looked extremely real but given how rare the fruit was, Zhong Yue couldn't help but question Hundun Yu's motive by presenting such precious item to him.
328
329"Darling, you musn't," warned Yin Fanxuan softly.
330
331Zhong Yue asked, "Senior martial brother, you must be seeking something from me by giving me such item. If it does not bother you, could you please tell me the reason behind this?"
332
333A conflicted expression rose on Hundun Yu's face and he whispered, "If I may, can we talk about this over there?"
334
335With that said, Hundun Yun started walking towards a corner and Zhong Yue followed behind him with a smile.
336
337"Now, can you please tell me what is it that you seek from me?"
338
339Hundun Yu looked around and after seeing no one was around, he clarified himself, "I am here under the grand ancestor's order. He wanted me to give you this fruit and after that, sneak around to observe you in his place."
340
341Zhong Yue did not see this coming and he laughed right away, "But senior martial brother, how are you supposed to sneak around after telling me this?"
342
343"The grand ancestor said it will turn into a trade."
344
345Hundun Yu said, "After accepting this fruit, you will not chase me away and I will be able to stay around to observe."
346
347Not knowing he was supposed to laugh or cry, Zhong Yue shook and said, "I could let you stay around but this fruit is just way too precious. Besides, your ancestor's motive is just very odd. Could you give me any other more justified reasons?"
348
349His words immediately had Hundun Yu shouted, "There is nothing more that I can say! I did not want to come at all but what choice do I have? The grand ancestor insisted that I also have to tell you that the future timeline is disrupted and it was impossible to observe you anymore in the chaos ..."
350
351"Unable to observe me in the chaos?"
352
353Zhong Yue was stunned and he shouted, "Your grand ancestor… Could he be …."
354
355"Yes, he is the monarch of the Hundun Clan!"
356
357Zhong Yue's mind flinched and right away, he recalled the image he saw when he sailed towards Heaven Suppression Palace in the ancient ship which depicted a Chaotic Divine Turtle crawling onto the land and walked away after turning into a living being.
358
359His psyche waved and he asked after visualizing that image, "Is this your grand ancestor, senior martial brother?'
360
361Hundun Yu however, was confused and after examining this image for some time, he replied, "Doesn't look like him."
362
363Could it be that the Hundun Clan's grand ancestor is not this Chaotic Divine Turtle that crawled out from Chaos? Perhaps, there could be more than just one Hundun being that gotten back onto the land….
364
365Zhong Yue was very puzzled. At this moment, he really wanted to meet this grand ancestor of Hundun Clan to answer his question.
366
367"So can I stay and observe?" asked a worried Hundun Yu.
368
369Zhong Yue nodded and answered, "But to prevent any possible misunderstandings in the future, this is the Heaven Suppression Palace, a very strategic and important location, which destined that this place will be an intense war zone. Please understand that dangerous is no longer a suitable word for this place."
370
371Hundun Yu laughed stupidly and said, "Which is also why the grand ancestor wanted me to bring the Fusang Divine Tree to protect myself."
372
373Zhong Yue then let him have his way and thought, The Hundun Clan's monarch probably did not bear any ill intent. The Hunduns beings loved to swim in Chaos to observe the wonders of the universe. They probably got onto the land after Great Si Ming destroyed my Imperial Star and interrupted the future… But shouldn't they immediately arrive at the present after getting onto the land? The Hundun Clan has been in existence for 10,000 years ago… Don't tell me that he ran into the wrong time line?
374
375His questions however, remained unanswered and he later decided to cast these questions aside.
376
377Anyway, this Fusang Branch most probably possess some power from the main tree. Hundun Yu's arrival can be good to me as well for I might be able to get in touch with this monarch race.
378
379Zhong Yue then had Hundun Yu stayed around him and he said, "If you stay beside me, what if there is danger…."
380
381"I have this tree to protect me!" Hundun Yu shook the Fusang Branch that was hung on his waist.
382
383Zhong Yue's heart moved and he asked, "What can this branch do?"
384
385"Of course it can pull off something marvelous! Human, please take a look."
386
387Hundun Yu held Fusang Branch in his hand, tossed it into the air and the branch immediately expanded. In just a blink of an eye, the branch turned into a solid and giant tree that rooted deep into the Star River and remained unflinched no matter how hard the waves struck onto the tree!
388
389Zhong Yue was amazed by this and the entire tree actually shadowed the whole Star River and even the entire south gate!
390
391Wherever the tree reached, the star sands in the river uncontrollably flew up, circled around the tree and turned into stars that lit up the tree brightly!
392
393And in between the tree, endless heavenly fire burnt brightly in mighty power!
394
395Apart from that, there were eight fiery red flower. Those were the blossomed Fusang Flowers, which all contained fire elemental Dao.
396
397In the Star River, the many gods on the ship all looked into the tree with an empty mind and a tightened heart. Meanwhile, the gods on the walls and in the fortress were all stunned by this massive tree and its unknown power!
398
399Hundun Yu then kept the tree away and everything appeared just now turned back into an ordinary branch, which was then placed on his waist again.
400
401"This is a monarch weapon?" exclaimed Zhong Yue.
402
403"Maybe?"
404
405Answered a slightly puzzled Hundun Yu as he knew little about this; he scratched his head and said, "No one told me about this but in the records of our clan, the grand ancestor once used this branch to fight off monarch weapons on equal grounds."
406
407Hearing this, Zhong Yue entirely lost his voice at the stupidity that Hundun Yu displayed; this foolish boy actually carried a monarch weapon all the way from the Zi Wei Imperial Star to the Heaven Suppression Fortress!
408
409Was he not worried about being robbed?
410
411That was a monarch level weapon, something that was very much desired by countless gods!
412
413But then, with this monarch weapon, the Heaven Suppression Fortress' defence is upped by another tier!
414
415Zhong Yue felt extremely pleased right now and he directed his attention towards the Chaos Divine Fruit as he asked, "Senior Martial Brother Yu, while Divine Tree of Life and the fruit from Innate Divine Tree can prolonged lifespan and allow people to understand the Innate Dao respectively, what can this fruit do?"
416
417Hundun Yu replied honestly, "I don't know, never ate one before. Human, won't you know after eating one?"
418
419"Please don't call me that."
420
421Zhong Yue was a little speechless, "You can just call me Mister Yi or senior martial brother."
422
423With a nod and a smile, Hundun Yu replied, "Then I'll call you Mister Yi. You have to tell me what it taste like! I've been controlling myself from eating it throughout my way here. If the grand ancestor had given me two of them, I'd have eaten one on my way here."
424
425Zhong Yue lost his words again and this time, he kept the fruit into his psyche ocean and decided that he would consume it when he's more prepared, to which Hundun Yu commented in disappointment, "You're not eating it now? If you don't eat it, how are you going to know what it taste like?"
426
427Seeing Hundun Yu who had his hopes up, Zhong Yue felt a little pity on him and he immediately took out the fruit, swallowed it and the fruit melted right away upon entering his mouth.
428
429"So? How does it taste?" asked a nervous Hundun Yu.
430
431"It tastes strange…. It's a taste I've never tasted and while it does not have any taste, it contains endless tastes, each being extremely unique ..."
432
433As soon as he said this, Zhong Yue's expression changed drastically for when the strong effect of the fruit exploded, the power charged its way right through Zhong Yue's secret realms effortlessly!
434
435Zhong Yue immediately felt what was happening and a cold shivered down his spine, I almost died after opening a few hundred Space Secret Realms at one go. But this fruit opened up every secret realms…. This is bad!
436
437Chapter 925: Chaos Divine Fruit
438
439
440
441Within one's body were contained endless secret realms, all of which were closed. But once they are opened, they will be endowed with power.
442
443Ever since the Fire Order Era, all skills and techniques were built with this as the base. But of course, the innate gods were not the same.
444
445The secret realms of the innate gods were already opened since birth, but they were also in disarray; in order to fully use the power of these secret realms, the innate gods still needed to unify these secret realms through the Six Paths Reincarnation.
446
447But the secret realms that were not within the Six Paths Reincarnation's coverage were extremely dangerous, After countless attempts, Zhong Yue still couldn't merge them with the Six Paths Reincarnation. And without being able to be controlled, these secret realms taxed his body and Yuan Shen greatly. Besides, just the Space Secret Realms alone already had him cornered.
448
449But now, the power of the fruit opened up all the secret realms within his body and that scared Zhong Yue's soul out of his body!
450
451Yet, Zhong Yue strangely felt no pressure after the fruit opened up the secret realms and he felt more than just comfortable instead.
452
453He even had this wonderful feeling that the endless unique tastes of the fruit were not taste but the Daos represented by the secret realms in his body!
454
455Each and every secret realm was a type of Dao!
456
457And now after consuming the fruit, the Daos contained in the fruit were nourishing his secret realms.
458
459Mortals were inherently inferior to innate gods mainly because their secret realms were not opened naturally like the innate gods and their quality also couldn't compare.
460
461Hence, they had to cultivate from the bottom and enhance the secret realms' flexibility, fortifying them with their own totem pattern Daos.
462
463For Zhong Yue, apart from the Dao Yi Secret Realms, the other five great secret realms were extremely vast and that was because they were constantly refined and expanded by him.
464
465And the smallest Dao Yi Secret Realm that could only fit the Pan Gu Celestial Being was the toughest to refine!
466
467Besides, apart from the six great secret realms, the other secret realms of mortals could not be cultivated, refined and expanded. Not even the monarch level ones, as that was beyond the capability of the Six Paths Reincarnation.
468
469However, the Chaos Divine Fruit contained every Dao represented by the secret realms and after consuming it, Zhong Yue felt that every single secret realm in his body was widening and surging with unimaginable speed!
470
471His six great secret realms continued expanding; the Bloodline Secret Realm connected his body and Yuan Shen tightly, the Wu Xing, Wan Xiang, Shen Cai, and Yin Yang widened and the dimension within them was fortified!
472
473The Dao contained in the fruit intertwined together as they strengthened, and even the toughest Dao Yi Secret Realm was gradually getting stronger with each rumble!
474
475The Dao Yi Secret Realm was located inside the brain. When it was closed, within the head of Qi Practitioners would be a cloudy area. This made opening of Dao Yi Secret Realm equivalent to creating the heaven and earth, requiring the creation of the Yin Yang, Shen Cai, Wan Xiang, and Wu Xing after dispersing the chaos.
476
477At this moment, Chaos Qi ravaged his Dao Yi Secret Realm, the Qi floated up and down, allowing the Dao Yi Secret Realm to widen and the Pan Gu Celestial Being in it to also grow. As the heaven and earth grew larger, so did the celestial being!
478
479These changes were very much pleasing to Zhong Yue as whether it be Qi Practitioners or gods, the hardest to cultivate would be the Dao Yi Secret Realm and Pan Gu Celestial Being. Hence, the growth in both his Dao Yi Secret Realm and Pan Gu Celestial Being saved him years of effort!
480
481Monarch level existences that could have their Pan Gu Celestial Being grow a level that allowed him to support the entire Six Paths Reincarnation… Just what kind of power is that?
482
483Now, though Zhong Yue managed to up the secret realm and the celestial being by quite an extent, he was still very far away from reaching the level of a monarch.
484
485But the Chaos Divine Fruit still strengthened his base, after all, making even more room for his Pan Gu Celestial Being and Dao Yi Secret Realm to improve!
486
487Apart from that, his other secret realms were also enhanced in this explosive improvement! While the gap to ascend into an innate god was still there, Zhong Yue was continually closing that gap!
488
489At this rate, after fully absorbing the fruit's power, Zhong Yue's secret realms would rival that of innate gods!
490
491That was the strongest effect of the fruit!
492
493Meanwhile, as Zhong Yue was absorbing the fruit's power, the others on the ship were staring at the light wheels appearing behind Zhong Yue in fear and shock!
494
495These light wheels were the projection of his secret realms and even the strongest one present on the scene only had six wheels, which was the representation of the Six Paths Reincarnation.
496
497Yet, apart from the six light wheels, there were countless wheels that were slowly emerging from his body!
498
499Huge or small, light or heavy, dark or bright and thick or thin, these light wheels circled around him in great numbers.
500
501At the same time, the light wheels were rumbling; countless Dao languages mixed together, composing a beautiful melody!
502
503Such a melody could have only existed in heaven, not the mortal realm!
504
505"That brat!"
506
507Fu Li grabbed onto Hundun Yu's collar, dragging him back while syaing, "That fruit of yours, do you still have another one? I can work for you! Anything, you name it!"
508
509Hundun Yu shouted angrily, "No! I only have one and I didn't even have the chance to eat it!"
510
511Fu Li, however, was not convinced and started searching through Hundun Yu with his rough hands, "You sure about that? Let me see ..."
512
513"Don't touch me! I'm serious!"
514
515Hundun Yu quickly dodged and replied, "This is a fruit that only grows on the divine tree! Even the one in the Jinwu Clan wouldn't grow one in a few thousand years! There had only been a total of five fruits after my grand ancestor planted the tree 170,000 years ago! There are only eight flowers left. If you live long enough, you might be able to have one!"
516
517Fu Li's eyes lit up right away and he said, "Then the Jinwu Clan still has this kind of fruit? Hey, this brat, why don't we go steal one or two from them? How about that? One for you and one for me!"
518
519Secretly, Hundun Yu rolled his eyes,
520
521Stealing from the imperial race Jinwu Clan? Do you think I'm stupid?
522
523"They always say that I am a stupid one but it seems like you are the real dumb one here!"
524
525Hundun Yu rebuked angrily, "Do you not know how powerful the Jinwu Clan is? Their monarch is not dead and his injuries are almost healed! Just how much effort do you think he would need to catch you!"
526
527Yin Fanxuan, who was on the other side, murmured worriedly, "Darling seems to have his secret realms all opened… Will there be a problem? If there really is…I might have to drag the corpse out for real …."
528
529On the other hand, the power in the fruit continued to surge in Zhong Yue's body, the light wheels flew around, unleashing the wonders of the secret realms.
530
531While the others knew little about the dangers of opening secret realms, Yin Fanxuan was very clear of it. She had already dragged Zhong Yue's body out from the Six Paths Bead more times than she could count.
532
533Two days later, the light wheels shining outside of Zhong Yue's body reached their pinnacle. And to Yin Fanxuan's delight, the light wheels dimmed as this, indiciating that the power from the fruit had been fully absorbed by Zhong Yue.
534
535If the light wheels did not fade, then they were still activated and that would be extremely dangerous!
536
537Another two days later, the light wheels outside of Zhong Yue's body gradually disappeared and the secret realms were deactivated.
538
539At long last, the efficacy of the fruit had been fully absorbed and it can no longer refine his secret realms.
540
541As the secret realms closed up, Zhong Yue let out a long breath of relief. At this time, his six great secret realms were extremely vast that they could fit in an entire solar galaxy; even the smallest Dao Yi Secret Realm was as huge as a planet.
542
543The Pan Gu Celestial Being who was within the Dao Yi Secret Realm had also become incredibly huge, much bigger than before!
544
545Weng—
546
547With a move in his psyche, the light wheels spread out behind the back of his head, the Six Paths Reincarnation spun slowly and the massive light wheels sank into the Star River, stirring the water like a water wheel.
548
549The Six Paths Wheels were the projection of his Yuan Shen secret realms' power and through that, he had shown immense power that was now coursing in his Yuan Shen secret realms!
550
551Shame. I am still far away from having the Pan Gu Celestial Being strong enough to lift up the entire Six Paths Galaxy. But it is already impressive enough that the Chaos Divine Fruit managed to raise my secret realms to such a level.
552
553Zhong Yue retracted the light wheels behind his head and he suddenly recalled, I once had an intimate relationship with the Heavenly Lady of Jinwu Clan. If I went to Jinwu Clan to propose for marriage with her, will they prepare a Chaos Divine Fruit as a dowry…. No no! Jin Hexi was lured into having a relationship with me when we both cultivated the Yin and Yang Dao. If I went to propose marriage, I might be killed by her! Besides, Fanxuan will be unhappy with this. I am not sure if I can beat her right now. If I piss her off again and get beaten up by her in front of everyone, then how would I still maintain my reputation….
554
555On the other hand, after noticing the efficacy of the fruit was depleted, Hundun Yu immediately rushed over with Fu Li in tow. The two of them looked at Zhong Yue eagerly and asked at the same time, "Did it taste good?"
556
557"Absolutely," nodded Zhong Yue.
558
559"So?" Fu Li looked at Hundun Yu.
560
561Hundun Yu hesitated and he scratched his head, "My mission is to stay beside Mister Yi… besides, the Jinwu Clan is so dangerous…."
562
563Zhong Yue was speechless as now he finally knew what these two were planning; they were actually brave enough to have unnecessary thoughts on the Jinwu Clan's Fusang Divine Tree. He immediately thought of something else, There should be news about Imperial Emperor Xian Tian by now.
564
565A few days later, a messenger arrived from the Xian Tian Palace carrying a letter from the Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
566
567"Dear Yi, wouldn't it be boring if there is no friend to accompany me? I will have one body standing guard and the other to entering seclusion. Besides, do you think we should accept the Heavenly Monarch's invitation?
568
569After reading it, Zhong Yue closed his eyes and he burnt it after he opened his eyes.
570
571This guy….
572
573He did not know what to feel; though they were on different sides since the beginning, he couldn't bring himself to deny that Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was a very admirable existence. His choice to leave one body out will definitely cause an imbalance between his celestial and demon Dao or worse, the other body will never be able to reach the Heavenly Monarch level!
574
575But Imperial Emperor Xian Tian still chose this unwise option regardless, hence, even if Zhong Yue took him as an enemy, he still couldn't help but admire Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
576
577"Young man of the Fuxi Clan, are you becoming soft right now?"
578
579Xin Huo's voice was heard questioning him, "Have you forgotten the annihilation of your race?"
580
581"No… I will never forget… I am just worried that my saber will not be quick enough."
582
583Zhong Yue replied as he slowly moved his hand on the innate divine saber, which shined and reflected his face. He said, "I just hope that my saber is swift enough to let him leave this world with no pain. I need it to be quicker and stronger!"
584
585Chapter 926: Intelligence Stands No Chance Against Absolute Power
586
587
588
589The annihilation of his race, the slavery of humanity, how could that be forgotten?
590
591When the sword decapitated the enemies, it must be done with speed.
592
593The sword was just like the heart.
594
595Just like the sword that dulled after prolonged usage, the heart would get tired after going through a lot of hardship.
596
597Hence, not only mst the sword be polished and sharpened, the heart must also be taken care of.
598
599In Zhong Yue's hand, the innate divine saber was flawless as it shone brightly, reflecting himself and his flaws on its surface.
600
601Suddenly, a divine general came reporting, "A messenger from the Heaven Court is requesting to see you, my lord!"
602
603With a flick of his mind, the divine blade disappeared and Zhong Yue had his men allow the messenger in.
604
605This messenger was a human god and in his hands was a scroll from the Heavenly Monarch, "Heaven Suppression Fortress' commander, Yi Feng, come forth and accept the decree."
606
607Hearing this, Zhong Yue remained seated on the chair and with a simple wave, he said, "Read it."
608
609The messenger was furious upon seeing this and immediately shouted, "How dare you, Yi Feng! You dare sit and not bow to the Heavenly Monarch's decree? Are you trying to rebel?"
610
611Zhong Yue remained seated expressionlessly.
612
613Yin Fanxuan, who was on the other side rebutted without hesitation, "My husband serves Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, not the Heavenly Monarch, why should he bow? If he's going to rebel, you're the first one who will be killed in his conquest! Do you want to force my husband into doing that?"
614
615"Read," said Zhong Yue again.
616
617The messenger suppressed his anger and opened up the scroll. It talked about the upcoming birthday of the Heavenly Monarch and that they were all invited to the celebration taking place in the Heaven Court.
618
619Zhong Yue had a subordinate accept the scroll and asked, "Apart from me, who else in Xian Tian Palace is invited?"
620
621The arrogant messenger replied, "The land in this universe is the land of the Heavenly Monarch, Xian Tian Palace is just one of the many factions out there, which places them all under the command of the same lord, the Heavenly Monarch. Only the leaders and masters are invited to the Heaven Court! If you dare to be absent, you will be charged with treason!"
622
623Zhong Yue answered with a smile, "Such a foul mouth! Punish him with 300 lashes and throw him out."
624
625Shocked and enraged by Zhong Yue's decision, the messenger shouted, "I am the Heavenly Monarch's messenger and you dare to punish me? Hold on! Wait! I am a human and you are a human too! Why don't you let me go?"
626
627His words, however, did not stop the generals from executing their lord's order. The messenger was pressed to the ground and after the beatings, he was already half dead.
628
629The messenger struggled up and shouted angrily, "Yi Feng, you humiliated the Heavenly Monarch's messenger! Do you still want to go to the birthday celebration or not! If you decide to go, I will wait for you there and tell everyone about your transgressions!"
630
631Zhong Yue was caught off guard at this messenger daringness and he said, "I let you keep your life because you are a human, but I never thought you have that gall! Fine, wait for me in the Heaven Court."
632
633Just as the divine generals were about to throw the messenger out, the man patted his clothes and smirked, "Don't you lay a finger on me! I can still walk myself!"
634
635With that said, he stood up straight and walked away arrogantly.
636
637In the main hall, Yin Fanxuan's beautiful eyebrows frowned, "Darling, why did he say that he will wait for you in the Heaven Court? Are you really planning to attend the celebration? I fear that the celebration is just a trap and the Heavenly Monarch is waiting there to slaughter everyone who attends his birthday celebration!"
638
639In the letter, it asked Zhong Yue if he was to attend the celebration or not, which also suggested that Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was invited as well. However, knowing how dangerous it was, even Imperial Emperor Xian Tian would be reluctant to attend.
640
641With the universe in such a chaotic situation, it was very clear that the Heavenly Monarch had ill designs, hence, what Yin Fanxuan said was very plausible.
642
643Zhong Yue laughed and said, "If Xian Tian Palace does not attend the banquet, those warlords that attended the banquet will be all taken over by the Heaven Court and those that wanted to stay neutral will think Xian Tian Palace is afraid of the Heaven Court. If that happens, Xian Tian Palace will have lost momentum before the war even began, placing them at a disadvantage."
644
645"But darling, the celebration is definitely not just a celebration."
646
647Yin Fanxuan shook, "After you punished their messenger, things will become even more dangerous when you arrived at Heaven Court!"
648
649"I punished him not because of his arrogance but because of his incompetence. Though the trip may be very risky, it is still a good chance to meet the many heroes of this world. Hence, I will still attend the celebration even if Imperial Emperor Xian Tian does not go. However, it is still better if I can get him to go with me for safety reasons."
650
651Yin Fanxuan couldn't help but laugh, "But darling, with their relationship, do you think Imperial Emperor Xian Tian will attend the celebration?"
652
653"I've my own ways. Worry not."
654
655Zhong Yue wrote a letter to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian that read, "The Heavenly Monarch has malicious intentions by setting up this banquet for his celebration. Your humble servant strongly recommends King Zi Guang to attend this celebration for he is a very intelligent and observant man. His presence there in the celebration will not cause any loss of face for Xian Tian Palace and he can even try to recruit some of the warlords there. I am willing to attend the celebration with King Zi Guang!"
656
657He then sealed the letter and handed it over to Fu Li to deliver to Xian Tian Palace as quickly as possible.
658
659Just as he put down his pen, Yin Fanxuan laughed, "That messenger might have a foul mouth but he has guts. Even after the punishment, he can still talk in such manner and force you into attending the celebration in Heaven Court."
660
661"I wanted to go there anyway, how is that possible that I… Wait! This human messenger is indeed very suspicious! I was still thinking about it but ever since meeting with him, I've made up my own unconsciously! I was affected by him!"
662
663Zhong Yue's expression changed right away and he immediately charged out from the palace and dove right into the Star Gate as he shouted, "Fanxuan, summon Fu Qizhi and Fu Yanshan to back me up!"
664
665In the next second, he was already at the fortress' gates. He ordered the guards to lower the drawbridge and charged towards the plains. He layered his psyche all across the surrounding and started searching for the messenger's location.
666
667Suddenly, his psyche tingled as he captured a stone tablet, which read, "I will be waiting for you at the front.".
668
669He rushed forward, traveled in high speed for three days and throughout his pursue, there were a few stone tablets left behind, each stating that the messenger would be waiting for Zhong Yue at the front.
670
671Zhong Yue continued his pursuit and suddenly, he slowed down his speed; at the front, there was a celestial being writing something onto the stone tablet.
672
673Zhong Yue approached slowly and said, "What are you planning to write this time, my dear messenger?"
674
675That celestial being was the messenger that sent the scroll to him; now, he was holding a huge brush, writing wildly on the stone tablet and upon hearing Zhong Yue's question, he suddenly kept away the brush and laughed, "Please, have a look, Mister Yi!"
676
677Zhong Yue looked towards this stone tablet and he noticed that unlike the other stone tablets, this one was much larger and the words on it were also different.
678
679"This is where Yi Feng will die!"
680
681It read.
682
683Zhong Yue moved his vision away from the tablet and at the next second, numerous Deity Emperors and Creators walked out, each with a gloomy expression as they surrounded the messenger.
684
685"Why did you come, Mister Yi?" asked the Heaven Court's messenger with a smile.
686
687Zhong Yue replied, "Just wanted to know your name after seeing your talent."
688
689Hearing this, the messenger bowed and replied in a serious manner, "Pardon my rudeness. I was rushing to deliver the Heavenly Monarch's message and forgot to introduce myself. This messenger here is just a tiny pawn under Heavenly Monarch. My name is Mo Yin. Greetings, Mister Yi."
690
691"Please, you don't have to be so polite, Mo Yin."
692
693Zhong Yue greeted back, "Mister Mo, you are helping the Heavenly Monarch organize the celebration, inviting the many lords in this world. If I may, could you please tell me your plans?"
694
695The Heaven Court's messenger replied, "To have everyone cooked in the same pot."
696
697Zhong Yue nodded lightly and said, "This tablet, please keep it for next time, today is not the day, Mister Mo."
698
699Mo Yin looked towards the back and two human Imperial Emperors flew out, and Mo Yin nodded, "Alright, I will keep it for you, take it away!"
700
701A Heaven Court soldier then carried the tablet on his shoulder while Mo Yin bowed again, "I will be waiting for you at the Heaven Court then, Mister Yi. At that time, I will place this tablet on your grave and I will bring some fine wine to visit you."
702
703Zhong Yue kept quiet and after a second, he laughed, "Mister Mo, I have some advice for you, intelligence may sometimes become ineffective before absolute power. You've spent too much on refining your intelligence but you forgot that power is also necessary to support your dreams."
704
705Mo Yin was slightly stunned and other thoughts floated up in his mind; the Heaven Court's Deity Emperors and Creators surrounded him as they all retreated. Halfway through their retreat, a door appeared and upon entering the door, Mo Yin, the Deity Emperors, and the Creators disappeared before the massive door crumbled into dust.
706
707Fu Yanshan and Fu Qizhi arrived a second later and upon noticing the ruined door, they quickly asked, "My lord, who is that?"
708
709"The advisor of the Heavenly Monarch."
710
711Zhong Yue exhaled deeply and said, "He's the one behind all this and the one that stopped Imperial Emperor Xian Tian from having both his celestial and demonic body go into cultivation. Most importantly, he is a human!"
712
713"A human?"
714
715Fu Yanshan and Fu Qizhi were both surprised and happy with Fu Qizhi immediately continued, "If he is a human, why doesn't my lord recruit him?"
716
717Zhong Yue gave them a shook, "I don't know if he is a real human or just another outsider that was reborn into the human race. Besides, so what if he is a human? Everyone has their own will, perhaps he thinks that serving under Heavenly Monarch is the best option."
718
719Speaking of this, he inevitably thought of Consort Tian Si. She too, was a very talented human but unfortunately, she was serving another person. Hence, without knowing more about the details, he couldn't simply place his trust in another party on the basis of their race!
720
721Zhong Yue returned to the fortress and thought, The humans are all talented. First, there is Tian Si, then Mo Yin and the others like Senior Martial Brother Feng Xiaozhong. What a pity, apart from Senior Martial Brother Feng, the other humans' talents were mostly on intelligence, granting them only the capability of serving under their lords. However, without sufficient power, they still can't alter the tragic fate of the humans in the end.
722
723With Fu Li's speed that rivaled even that of Imperial Emperors, they arrived at Xian Tian Palace in a month's time and delivered the letter to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
724
725Imperial Emperor Xian Tian immediately summoned King Zi Guang and showed him the letter. The latter was furious after reading it, "This cunning Yi is trying to harm my life through the hands of others!"
726
727"Zi Guang, he said that he will go with you and if so, how can he harm you?"
728
729King Zi Guang pretended to be angry as he replied, "Intelligence is no match against absolute power! If the Heavenly Monarch wants to kill us, it won't matter how smart you are! He must be plotting something when he asked me to go with him, maybe he will throw me to the Heavenly Monarch in exchange for a high post!"
730
731Imperial Emperor Xian Tian thought and said, "Mister Yi is in charge of the external affairs and you are in charge of internal affairs. You two can't go together because if you both are absent, the internal and external management will be in chaos. You will stay to guard Xian Tian Palace and I will place you in charge of the army. I will just go with Mister Yi. Worry not, I will ask for a few precious items from my teacher to protect myself."
732
733King Zi Guang laughed and said, "If you want to go, it is fine, my king. However, my king has to give out an order that all races under Xian Tian Palace can only send out messengers as representatives and their leaders must not attend the celebration."
734
735Imperial Emperor Xian Tian nodded and said, "You have my word. After I leave, I will hand over the Xian Tian Palace to you, Zi Guang."
736
737King Zi Guang nodded as he thought, The traitor Yi used a shady move to make Imperial Emperor Xian Tian accompany him so that the Imperial Emperor could protect him. This brat can fool the Imperial Emperor but not me! Whatever he said in the letter was to force Imperial Emperor to accompany him and he had to go or he will lose the support of the many heroes in this world. But why is he so enthusiastic about heading to the Heavenly Court? I wanted to have Imperial Emperor to order traitor Yi to go with him but now, he has saved me some work.
738
739His eyes blinked, Can the traitor Yi triumph over that advisor hidden in the Heaven Court? Anyway, I will be able to see the advisor's abilities through their battle.

741Chapter 927: Magnificent Forging Skills
742
743
744
745In the Heaven Suppression Fortress, the Heavens Kirin Carriage slowly moved out of the fortress gate while Hundun Yu sat at the door of the carriage with Fu Li controlling the horses.
746
747Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan, on the other hand, were sitting in the carriage as they all headed straight towards Zi Wei Imperial Star.
748
749This time, there were only four of them. Zhong Yue had no choice but to bring Hundun Yu along with them; after presenting the fruit to Zhong Yue, this guy had glued himself to Zhong Yue with the Fusang Branch in his hand. Luckily, this big guy's quiet behavior made him easy to ignore.
750
751As for Fu Li, with his powerful strength, he was brought along as a bodyguard to protect Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan as the trip to the Heaven Court was bound to be a dangerous one.
752
753Yin Fanxuan had requested to tag along; the lady master of the King's Palace was tired of staying in the fortress and was eager to meet other heroes.
754
755Right now, as long as there were no unreasonably strong gods like Imperial Emperor Xian Tian attacking the fortress, the fortress would be fine even if Zhong Yue was absent. Fu Qizhi, Fu Yanshan and the others were sufficient to defend it.
756
757The Heavens Kirin Carriage's defense was extraordinary; ordinary Creators would not be able to breach it.
758
759They steadily moved towards their destination. Throughout the journey, Zhong Yue looked towards the outside, only to see the many sacred grounds still at war with each other. The situation was still as chaotic as it was.
760
761But the chaos did not spread to the monarch and sovereign races, which is not enough. They are after all, extremely rich in every aspect after years of consolidating their powerbase.
762
763Zhong Yue sat back down and with a thought, six light wheels emerged and started rotating around him while the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] appeared, accompanied by the sound of mysterious Dao languages.
764
765He was the one who created the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] and merged together the Celestial Dao, Demon Dao, and the Yin and Yang Daos. But now, it was no longer suitable to cultivate.
766
767Right now, he had achieved cultivating eight innate Daos; the Celestial, Demon, Yin and Yang, Lightning, Time, Space, and Yi. But the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] only contained four Daos, which resulted in a situation where when he practiced [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art], the other four Daos were unable to be cultivated at the same time.
768
769When he cultivated Innate Lightning, he had to cultivate the [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture]; when cultivating the Time and Space Dao, he has to cultivate the [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture]; when cultivating the Innate Yi Dao, he has to cultivate the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture].
770
771He was only able to cultivate the eight Daos by cultivating four separate arts. Which meant that Zhong Yue had to spend four times the effort compared to others in order to grow the eight Daos together.
772
773This greatly hindered his cultivation speed.
774
775Yin Fanxuan's cultivation was extremely fast, far surpassing Zhong Yue's. Apart from the Innate Saint Spirit Body's powerful effect, another reason was that her art only needed to cultivate one type. What she cultivated was not the traditional monarch level heritage of the Yinkang Clan but the [Twenty-Four Secular Worlds Mystic Art] that she created on her own.
776
777And that was also why Zhong Yue did not dare to say he was able to win against Yin Fanxuan for certain even after his considerable growth.
778
779At this moment, Yin Fanxuan was already at the peak of a Heavenly Deity, her speed was even crazier than Zhong Yue's and the most insane part was that the [Twenty-Four Secular Worlds Mystic Art] meant that she was cultivating 24 Daos, which was extremely insane that she was able to cultivate them all at such high speed.
780
781She too, had mastered quite an extent of the innate Deity Kings' Dao languages and the amount Zhong Yue mastered was only 30 more than hers.
782
783All of this explained just how strong this lady was.
784
785If she also consumed the Chaos Divine Fruit and dueled with Zhong Yue, she would destroy Zhong Yue effortlessly.
786
787Hence, Zhong Yue very much wanted to get another Chaos Divine Fruit for her as he was very curious to see how strong she would be after consuming the fruit. But unfortunately, such a chance was very rare.
788
789I need to merge my arts together into one to increase my cultivation speed.
790
791Zhong Yue found himself in a quandary as the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture], and [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture] were all monarch level arts that required almost an infinite amount of time to completely master, let alone merge together. It was even harder than he could ever imagine.
792
793There were more than 100 arts of comparable quality in Xin Huo's brain and among the many Heavenly Monarch arts, he only had Xin Huo teach him two of them because he knew that cultivating four arts at once was extremely difficult. If he was greedy and asked for all the cultivation arts, there would be no way Zhong Yue could improve anymore.
794
795He then continued to cultivate in the carriage as they proceeded to the Heaven Court. At the same time, he tried to calculate a way to merge the four arts together. And to his shock, after consuming the Chaos Divine Fruit, his cultivation speed has been increased to a terrifying level!
796
797As he activated his arts, his cultivation level increased tremendously, his totem Dao strengthened and widened and things that he did not understand before were now crystal clear to him!
798
799Zhong Yue changed into another art and to his joy, the result was the same!
800
801Now, cultivating four types of arts was even quicker than cultivating one art before!
802
803His cultivation level had increased tremendously, his Daos fortified and his energy surged across his six great secret realms. Within the secret realms, the Dao totem patterns evolved into the skies, earth, sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, exotic creatures, dragons, and phoenixes.
804
805He even vaguely felt that among these totem patterns that flew into the secret realms, there were some Daos recorded within the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] that did not belong to the Six Paths.
806
807Zhong Yue activated the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] and without him knowing, he had already cultivated these abnormal Dao totem patterns. These totem patterns were incompatible with the six great secret realms and they flew right into the closed secret realms, making them very likely to be the power nourished in these secret realms.
808
809His Time and Space Dao were also constantly nourishing the Space Secret Realm and the Time Secret Realm hidden in his body, allowing them to grow stronger.
810
811However, as long as these secret realms were not opened, using the power in them would only be a fat dream for him.
812
813The Heavens Kirin Carriage traveled at a constant pace but even so, its speed was so still fast, enough to compare with Zhong Yue's flying speed. As time passed, they were getting closer and closer to the Imperial Star.
814
815Zhong Yue then took this rare peaceful time to cultivate with Yin Fanxuan; in this period of time, he had improved greatly and he was at least fifty percent stronger than before.
816
817His Innate Secular World was refined to a very high level; in the Innate Secular World, Zhong Yue separated about 10,000 himself out, continuously trying to find a way to merge the four ultimate arts. Inside the Secular World were endless totem patterns formed from the Yin and Yang Lines while the Dao languages rumbled.
818
819Zhong Yue glanced at Yin Fanxuan who was also dwelled in her cultivation as he thought, Now that my strength increased by fifty percent, will I be able to win against her?
820
821Just as he was thinking about his chances, a loud hammering sound came from nowhere and it felt like the hammered right on their heart.
822
823Then Fu Li was heard shouting, "My lord, there are two old man smithing right at our path!"
824
825Zhong Yue opened the door and when he looked forward, he saw a blazing divine fire that lit up half of the sky, the fire in the furnace was brighter than a billion suns; two shirtless old men were setting up the fire and hammering a piece of metal in it.
826
827As the divine fire raged, the space around the furnace started melting down but even so, the piece of metal was still too stubborn to be melted.
828
829"Halt." said Zhong Yue softly.
830
831The Heavens Kirin Carriage stopped gradually and Zhong Yue walked out of the carriage with Fu Li and Hundun Yu behind him. In the carriage, Yin Fanxuan became uneasy upon hearing smithing noise, causing her to awake from her cultivation. She also walked out of the carriage.
832
833As Yin Fanxuan looked at the two old men in surprise, Zhong Yue was already at the furnace, observing the smithing, only to notice that the old man who was smithing used a clamp to hold the metal piece and was hammering it strongly with a massive hammer.
834
835Zhong Yue was moved by this as when the hammer landed, it turned into wonderful Dao techniques; the hammer felt like it had created a whole new world and within this world was a giant equipped with a massive hammer, slamming it everywhere with a hammer technique so wonderful and so powerful that it left Zhong Yue breathless.
836
837Fu Li was also shaken by this; with his rich experience and knowledge, especially as an expert in body techniques, Fu Li saw much more than Zhong Yue in the old man's hammer technique; the flow in his blood, energy, movements in his muscle and veins were just like a gushing water of Dao that was extremely wonderful.
838
839Yin Fanxuan also saw the wonders in this hammering and she quietly tried to decipher the hidden wonder behind it.
840
841Zhong Yue then looked towards the other old man who was controlling the fire, who seemed to have been annoyed at how inefficient the bellow was. He threw it aside and started blowing wind into the furnace with his mouth. In an instant, the already raging fire turned even more aggressive like it was going to melt everything!
842
843That breath contained endless changes of wind and fire, and the two Daos were all at the peak!
844
845Such wind, such fire! Such an excellent hammer technique!
846
847While everyone was amazed by the hammering, there was an odd one; Hundun Yu stood there with a confused expression, holding the tree branch in his hand and remained unwavering at the techniques displayed by the two old men.
848
849Dang—
850
851As the hammer slammed into the metal on the anvil, the loud din shuddered their Yuan Shen and mortal body.
852
853"What are you looking at!"
854
855Suddenly the old man with the hammer glanced at them and smirked, "Are you planning to steal our techniques? Do you think I am powerless to resist?"
856
857Zhong Yue's eyes blinked and he laughed, "Steal? I think you are both too arrogant!"
858
859The old man who was blowing wind into the furnace stopped and he smiled, "If you are not here to steal our forging techniques, then you must be trying to steal the technique of how we forge items? Either way, you deserve nothing more than death alone! I will blow you into dust with my breath!"
860
861Yin Fanxuan immediately said, "Darling, let's go, there is no need to pay attention to them."
862
863"We can't."
864
865Zhong Yue shook his head and said, "The two old seniors' forging noises had formed a Greater Six Paths Reincarnation. No matter where we go, we are still walking within the Six Paths Reincarnation and we will still run into them in the end. At that time, they will repeat that we are trying to steal their techniques and they will kill us for that."
866
867As Zhong Yue explained, the two old men were shocked and they both suddenly laughed, "Left King Yi, Mister Yi of the Xian Tian Palace is indeed impressive! To be able to see through us forging a Six Paths Reincarnation dimension with the Dao language, you are much better than the sissy Mu Xiantian! Impressive!"
868
869Zhong Yue replied with a smile, "Dear seniors, I'd like to smith and forge an item. If my technique is better than yours, the item I forged is better, will you still try to kill us?"
870
871The two old men exchanged a look and they laughed, "Alright, if you can really beat us, you may leave but if you lose, we will kill you!"
872
873"Here, the hammer!" shouted the old man with the hammer as he handed his hammer to Zhong Yue.
874
875Chapter 928: Seventh Cervical Spine
876
877
878
879But Zhong Yue didn't take the huge hammer, instead, he laughed and said, "Seniors, the weapon has not been fully forged still, I dare not intervene. Since it's a competition, of course the seniors should be given priority over me to forge a weapon."
880
881The two old men smirked, "Those from the Xian Tian Palace are all boasters, even Mister Yi is no exception. Fine, we will make you lot die with our magnificence!"
882
883Then, one wielded the hammer and the other controlled the bellow as the two old men continued forging.
884
885Fu Li's face grew paler as he found that the two old men's ways of forging were filled with many abstrusities, one that appeared highly similar to his own cultivations.
886
887True enough, these abstrusities were like his, but even deeper than Fu Li's own attainments in the mortal body. Not to mention that the Dao voices of the [Demonic Chant of Reincarnation] coming from the clanking of metals that weren't even in Fu Li's area of cultivations!
888
889His cultivations came from the Leizhe Clan, an art known as the [Barbaric Divine Dragon Scripture]. The [Barbaric Divine Dragon Scripture] was adopted by the ancient universe's wild humans long ago and modified to make it more suitable for humans to cultivate.
890
891The [Barbaric Divine Dragon Scripture] had the power to stimulate the sealed Leizhe blood in the humans, allowing them to awaken the powers of the innate celestial dragons. It was one of the most brutal and overbearing cultivation arts!
892
893However, the [Barbaric Divine Dragon Scripture] was incomplete, lacking the most important puzzle of the whole art— the part that explained the Six Paths Reincarnations, missing the complete explanation and use of the Six Paths Reincarnations in this art.
894
895Fu Li was already one of the most talented humans in the whole ancient universe and one of the strongest human leaders. Yet, he too was unable to piece the only flaw in the [Barbaric Divine Dragon Scripture].
896
897Whereas the two old men took a similar cultivation path as his, although not the [Barbaric Divine Dragon Scripture], all types of cultivations were only different means of achieving one same goal. They would eventually end up at the same place; the two old man's forging skills gave him lots of inspiration about how he should cultivate in the future.
898
899But that wasn't the reason why he was pallid. The actual reason was he realized the yet-to-complete weapon that the two old men were forging was in fact, forged to tackle him; his cultivation, his mortal body, his Yuan Shen, and his flaws!
900
901That said, once the weapon was forged, it would hold the exact power to take him down in just one strike, a sure-kill attack!
902
903Just how terrifying was it to know that there was such a way of forging exists in this life. That it could forge a divine weapon specifically targeted toward an individual, one that could deliver a sure-kill to the target!
904
905The sounds of metal clanking were shuddering Fu Li's mortal body and Yuan Shen, even the secret realms and Daos in his body were shuddering as well. It was as if the sounds of metal clanking was reacting to the changes in him, then feeds the reactions back to the hammer so its wielder would better understand his flaws and weaknesses.
906
907Beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead and his scalps were tingling. He knew for sure that once the weapon was completed, he would die, there was just no escape from it anymore by then!
908
909How terrifying.
910
911After a long time, the sounds of metals clanking slowly ceased and the two old men stopped forging. They took down a weapon from the anvil. It was round and long, like a needle!
912
913Fu Li's eyelids were thumping and his hairs bristled. The feeling of a needle poking into his seventh cervical spine, through his brain, and out of his head!
914
915The seventh cervical spine was located between one's neck and shoulders. Humans weren't pure Leizhe dragons, they also had the blood of the Huaxu snakes flowing through their veins.
916
917The Hua Xu Ancient God was the first innate snake. And snakes had a common lethal spot which was the seventh vertebrae down from its skull. When a snake's lethal spot was struck, it would die.
918
919The same lethal spot was also passed down to the humans. While Fu Li had only awoken the dragon blood in him, he had never cultivated any Huaxu cultivation arts. This made his seventh cervical spine, the equivalent of the snakes' seventh vertebrae, his weak spot!
920
921When the needle was forged, he felt like it was meant to be in his seventh cervical spine, to pin down his Yuan Shen and pierce through his skull!
922
923"How's the needle?" The old man who wielded the hammer asked, "King Yi, you can tell the marvelousness of the needle, can't you?"
924
925Zhong Yue nodded in admiration, "Seniors forged a divine weapon dedicated to Fu Li. With just the rumbling Dao voice, seniors are able to forge a treasure that can ensure a top Creator's death, I can't help but admire. But there are four of us here, seniors only forged one, do you think we will concede so easily?"
926
927The two old men exchanged a look and laughed together, "King Yi asks for a willing death! Fine, we'll forge another three!"
928
929The sounds of metal clankings could be heard resounding over the space for a long time. The second divine weapon forged was a scissors, and Hundun Yu suddenly said while staring closely at it, "I can feel my life reaped by this scissors, this terrifies me. Fortunately, I have the divine tree with me, it can't cut my branches, else, I'd be scared to death already."
930
931The old men heard him and quickly glanced over only to notice the Fu Sang Divine Tree on Hundun Yu's elbow. Their hearts skipped a beat as shock filled into it, they exchanged a look and the other old man sneered coldly, "The Hundan Clan has even sent out its monarch weapon, are the Hunduns ready to step in now?"
932
933They turned around and continued to forge the next divine weapon. This time, it was for Yin Fanxuan.
934
935To Zhong Yue, the Innate Saint Spirit Body literally had no weakness. If the two old men were to forge a weapon aiming for her weakness, they wouldn't even able to forge anything.
936
937But to his surprise, with the sounds of metals clanking, a divine weapon was slowly forming on the anvil!
938
939As time passed, Yin Fanxuan's countenance grew more serious. This time, the forging was much slower, but the Dao voices were still shuddering her mortal body and Yuan Shen, pulsing waves and waves of death on her face.
940
941Time flowed unknowingly as the weapon's shape turned clearer to them. Its structure was complex. From the outside, the weapon appeared like a bell with nine status of dragons on the sides. The dragons' heads were facing down, their mouths gnawed on a dragonball each and their tails connected at the top of the bell.
942
943Between the dragons were nets joined together. In between the net holes were contained various different Dao totems that were incredibly complex!
944
945Yin Fanxuan sighed, the divine weapon was no doubt forged for her specifically.
946
947The Innate Saint Spirit Body had no weaknesses, its strong and high affinity to the Daos allowed the Innate Saint Spirit Body to wield every Daos in the universe. Every skill to the Innate Saint Spirit Body was as good as the skills' ultimate form.
948
949This was what made the Innate Saint Spirit Body so vaunted, but that too, was its only flaw.
950
951The dragon bell was exactly forged at her weakness. When the bell trapped her in it, it would form an inner world of its own, a pocket world where the world's Daos were the Daos weaved in the netholes. That way, she wouldn't be able to make use of the Daos of the actual world. Instead, the Daos that she would try to call upon would only be absorbed by the bell and further boost the bell's power.
952
953In the end, the Innate Saint Spirit Body would be killed in the bell by the powers she called from the Daos of the world.
954
955"Nice weapon," Yin Fanxuan praised bitterly.
956
957The two old men smirked. Then, the old man wielding the hammer took out a piece of hot iron, slamming on it as he proceeds in forging the next weapon.
958
959A thought suddenly came into Zhong Yue's mind and he hid his Dao of Space and Dao of Time into the Space Secret Realms and Time Secret Realms, leaving only the Six Paths visible to them.
960
961A long time later, the fourth and final divine weapon was finished forging and took down from the anvil by the two old men.
962
963This weapon was a strange-looking one. In the center was a huge ball, transparent like a bubble while six halos were circling with the ball as the core.
964
965"What do you think of using this armillary sphere to kill you?" The old man who handled the bellow squinted his eyes and smiled as he asked.
966
967Zhong Yue inspected the armillary sphere carefully. The six circling halos were for his six Daos. However, he had suppressed his Yi Dao before, and thus, the armillary sphere was only aimed at his five Daos of Yin, Yang, Celestial, Demon, and Lightning.
968
969The Yi Dao resembled endless change, the armillary sphere's six halos of Dao wouldn't even able to suppress it.
970
971However, the huge ball in the center gave Zhong Yue the most ominous feeling. It was forged to counter his mortal body and Yuan Shen. The two old men had taken a deep look into his innate mortal body and innate Yuan Shen. Thus, they filled the center huge ball with the power of Six Paths so it could strip Zhong Yue's innate mortal body and innate Yuan Shen back to the mortal state!
972
973"To kill me, it is more than enough," Zhong Yue's face was pale as he said.
974
975The seniors were satisfied. The old man who had the hammer handed it toward Zhong Yue while smiling, "King Yi, now it's your turn."
976
977Zhong Yue picked up the hammer and immediately muffled a deep groan. God knows what was the hammer forged from as it was incredibly heavy and had a strong force of Metamagnet Divine Power that nearly pulled his whole body onto the hammer's surface.
978
979The two old men had smirks on their faces while Zhong Yue inhaled deeply. The powers of his six Yuan Shen secret realms billowed out from his body and the six halos behind him revolved rapidly, growing larger every second and swirling the stars around. The six Innate Daos covered his arms, making them thick and sturdy!
980
981The two old men were really shocked when they saw Zhong Yue slowly lifting up the hammer. Then, Zhong Yue said solemnly, "Seniors, please help me with the bellows!"
982
983"Alright!"
984
985The old man who was in charge of the bellow laughed, "Our order is to kill you, given the tremendous disparities over our prowesses, the order is nothing but an act of bullying. It really did make me feel bad already, not to mention that this guilt will soon crawl up our Dao hearts and affect our future cultivation. Thus, the only way to go around it is to let you die willingly, that we kill you in a fair fight. Come, I will handle the bellows and help you in your forgings!"
986
987The other old man also laughed, "This hammer burdens you too much, come, let me make it easier for you."
988
989Immediately, Zhong Yue could tell the hammer has lightened up and was now easier for him to wield. He then thanked the seniors for their help.
990
991The second old man said, "King Yi is really outstanding, if it's not because of the orders, we won't come for you now too. Not while you are still in the level of Heavenly Deity, at least, you have to be an Imperial Emperor first because that's when we can have a fair fight and kill you. But the orders are given, and we are forced to execute it. If you can forge a weapon that makes us both willing to concede defeat, we will turn and leave without even turning back!"
992
993Zhong Yue nodded. The other old man sucked in a deep breath of air and blew out the Innate Xun Wind, causing the furnace to burn higher. Soon after, the metal in it was burnt into a reddish hot lump and Zhong Yue clamped it out from the furnace, placing it on the anvil and started forging it.
994
995What kind of metal is this? Why is it not melting even after it's burnt by such strong fire?
996
997Zhong Yue was shocked but maintained his composure quickly as he continued striking the metal piece with the huge hammer!
998
999A soft and rhythmic din sounded out form the metal piece as it slowly deformed under the hammer's strikes. In the midst of the soft din, faint voices of the Dao could be heard chanting obscurely, as if the gods were praising the creation of the weapon.
1000
1001Then, Zhong Yue smashed the hammer down again. Sparks of fire flew out from the point of impact, spreading out and formed specters of gods that circled around the anvil.
1002
1003One strike after another, Zhong Yue's body underwent enormous stress. His muscles were bulging out and his veins protruding from his skins as if there were dragons lying under his skin.
1004
1005He had no other thought other than the hammer in his hands and the metal it was striking.
1006
1007After a long time, when the metal cooled down, he returned it back to the furnace and the old man again burned the metal reddish.
1008
1009Zhong Yue clamped the metal out and continued striking on it.
1010
1011The metal was slowly taking shape and in the process, there were also many strange patterns that gradually appeared on the metal's surface.
1012
1013And the sparks of fire were also growing in number with more variations. Sometimes, they were turned into a sky of stars; sometimes, a storming sea with raging tides; or they could be the elements of earth, water, wind, and fire; sometimes the mountains and rivers; or a crowd of races, and many other more.
1014
1015As time passed, the metal piece under Zhong Yue's hammer was nearing completion. Its shape was a round disc and its surface was filled with even more arcane patterns that looked somewhat look a drawing.
1016
1017Zhong Yue raised the hammer again, and this time, it was different.
1018
1019The sky and earth shuddered and the Daos around them shivered. There were rays of different colors seeping out of the void, billowing down like rainbows, striking down onto the round disc!
1020
1021The disc's sides were extended out, turning it into a strange container that is round at the bottom and squarish on the top.
1022
1023He was borrowing the two old man's divine weapons to forge the treasures of the Heavenly Daos!
1024
1025This was one of Great Sui's discoveries, the 25th Drawings of Heavenly Daos — Tian Pan.
1026
1027Chapter 929: Vessel of Heavenly Daos
1028
1029
1030
1031Great Si Ming had once researched Great Sui's 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos. His prowess was beyond imagination; thus, he was able to just chant the Heavenly Dao's Language and call upon the Daos of the universe to form the Treasure of Heavenly Daos.
1032
1033But Zhong Yue wasn't even close to that level. When he was researching the 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos in the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, he too once thought to forge the 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos into 30 Treasure of Heavenly Daos.
1034
1035But his cultivation level was too low and neither were his attainments in the Drawings of Heavenly Daos sufficient enough to make it happen. He simply couldn't even call upon the Daos of this universe nor the required materials to forge a Treasure of Heavenly Daos.
1036
1037But now, there were two unexpected helpers and the huge hammer not inferior to the monarch weapons here to help him. Thus, Zhong Yue was able to call upon the Daos of the universe and forge the Treasures of Heavenly Daos!
1038
1039The Drawing of Tian Pan was one of Great Sui's 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos. But it wasn't just a round disc one could find or forge randomly, its structure had a profound meaning.
1040
1041As the saying went: The sky is round and the earth is flat. The Tian Pan's bottom was round, resembling the sky; and the sides were flat like the earth; its center was the sky, and the walls were the earth.
1042
1043Thus, the Tian Pan was also known as the Immemorial Heavenly Flask, a flask that looked like a square flask with a round bottom.
1044
1045This Tian Pan was forged with the Tian Pan Heavenly Dao as its core. It contained the Daos of this universe and the powers of these Daos.
1046
1047The patterns that appeared on the metal's surface when Zhong Yue was forging it was in fact, the Heavenly Daos' Dao patterns. It was when the Dao patterns were close to completion that the Daos of this universe were attracted to it and called upon to fortify it!
1048
1049Zhong Yue raised the hammer again, and the sky and earth shuddered once more with loud rumbles. The rainbow rays billowed out from the void, flashing through the horizon, and crashing into Tian Pan along with the strikes of the hammer!
1050
1051The sparks of fire formed into the specters of gods, flying around the Tian Pan with the chants of Dao voices resounding in their ears.
1052
1053One strike after another, all kinds of shapes bloomed around Tian Pan. Gradually, the Tian Pan began to resonate with the Daos. It felt like every change in the Tian Pan would also affect the Dao around it!
1054
1055As the hammer landed again on the Tian Pan, a beautiful melody touched the surroundings. It was just a sound, yet, all of the Dao seemed to soften in its wake.
1056
1057The two old men were shocked. In their eyes, Zhong Yue appeared like a giant who was creating a new world and the Daos in it. The hammer didn't felt like a hammer anymore but a heaven-cleaving axe that could shatter the nothingness of void to open up a whole new universe!
1058
1059Every single movement he made was filled with the inexpressible abstrusities of Daos!
1060
1061The sounds of the metal clanking were just the same too. The Great Six Paths Reincarnations formed from their [Demonic Chant of Reincarnations] was gradually vanishing in the midst of the Dao voices as the sound was tearing their Great Six Paths Reincarnations apart!
1062
1063Yin Fanxuan, Fu Li, and the others were all shocked too. None knew when Zhong Yue learned such power. On the side, Hundun Yu quickly took out a mirror and held up the Fusang Tree branch. With the branch as a pen and the mirror as paper, he recorded the scene down.
1064
1065The Hundun Clan's clan master ordered him to go 'undercover' by Zhong Yue's side to record all of Zhong Yue's actions and events revolving him. Naturally, how could he miss such an important moment?
1066
1067Zhong Yue was still swinging the hammer, oblivious to what was happening around him. In fact, he wouldn't care less about it. He was now in a state of enlightenment, one that was related to the Dao.
1068
1069In this Dao state, he couldn't feel the hammer in his hands. Every movement he made was dictated by the Tian Pan Heavenly Dao itself. He was merely a musician following the lead of its orchestrator.
1070
1071All of a sudden, a soft sound rang out. It was the anvil beneath the Tian Pan. A crack had appeared on its surface.
1072
1073The old hammer-wielder's expression changed drastically, he quickly looked up to spot the small crack on the hammer's surface.
1074
1075"Not good, whatever he is forging is too strong, my Million Treasure Dao Hammer won't be able to hold it anymore!"
1076
1077The old man was heartbroken, he quickly reached his hand out and snatched the hammer back from Zhong Yue. He shouted, "No more! No more!"
1078
1079The sudden development of situation had awoken Zhong Yue. The weight that was in his hand before was now gone and so was his heart, it felt empty. The Tian Pan was only 70% complete, the most important 30% was still not yet finished. If he was allowed to continue forging it, he would've probably forged his first Treasure of Heavenly Dao!
1080
1081But now, the Tian Pan wasn't completed yet. Mostly, it could be called a Vessel of Heavenly Daos, only a vessel, with not much power or abstrusity in it.
1082
1083The hammer-wielding old man pushed him to the side, clearing the anvil and putting it on his back. He held the hammer in his hand; whereas the other old man carried the bellows and furnace.
1084
1085The two of them were quick, in just moments, they had finished packing up the four treasures. The hammer-wielding old man looked at the Tian Pan, contemplating if he should take it. Though, in the end, he sighed and returned the Tian Pan to Zhong Yue.
1086
1087"King Yi, we've lost, your talent has earned much of our respect!"
1088
1089The two old men bolted away while their distant voices said, "Don't you worry. We lost and fully acknowledge our loss. We won't go back on our word. But in the future, we might cross paths again. After all, we have to follow the orders from above, whether we like it or not. King Yi, if it so happens that you die by our hands, don't take it personally!"
1090
1091Zhong Yue quickly raised his voice and shouted, "Seniors, please stop!"
1092
1093The two old men stopped and turned around to see Zhong Yue bowing at them with a smile, "Seniors, wherever it is, forgings of treasures are still done the same, isn't it? My Heaven Suppressing Prefecture is lacking a great number of treasures, I wonder if the seniors can help the junior to forge a few treasures?"
1094
1095The two old men exchanged an eye, laughed out loud happily and strode away.
1096
1097"King Yi, you have guts, you dare to rope us in!"
1098
1099Old Man Xuan laughed, "We don't forge weapons for the ordinary people, we only do it for the Heavenly Monarch. If you really want us to forge weapons for you, you'll have to first wait till you have taken down the current Heavenly Monarch and usurp Mu Xiantian!"
1100
1101"King Yi, you have passed today. But one day, when you are still alive, and the Heavenly Monarch orders us to attack the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, we might meet again. Then, we will have another competition!"
1102
1103Old Man Qi's voice also said, "In the front of the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, two old men forge one weapon after another, and with the birth of each weapon, marks the end of another hero's legacy, and their heads would roll down to the ground. We'll see whether if you, the lord of the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, can really suppress the heavens!"
1104
1105Zhong Yue watched as they left and he murmured, "Only forge for the Heavenly Monarch? Then, I'll have them forge weapons for me in the future!"
1106
1107Fu Li said in a trembling voice, "They took the needle with them! Master, I can feel it, the air of my death lingering within the needle, I will die because of it! If someone in the Heaven Court gets their hands on it…"
1108
1109Yin Fanxuan thought of the weapon for her and she too felt the unease consuming her heart. She could feel her body, mind, and soul trapped inside it, as if signaling her impending doom.
1110
1111However, as she cultivated the [Ancient Time Unmoving Seal] from Fu Shang, she was able to shed off the weights in her mind and turn her Dao heart back to normal. But her worry was still evident on her face as she said, "Husband, if the seniors really did come to our Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, all the gods, even the two Imperial Emperors in the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture will be struck down by them! Even if they don't step in and fight themselves, they can still tear us to the ground!
1112
1113Zhong Yue's face was also solemn, "Old Man Xuan and Qi are indeed incredible, we mustn't let our guards down."
1114
1115After this experience, he was able to see just how sharp the two old men would be if they were used to attack a city. Perhaps, no single city or keep would be able to stop them at all!
1116
1117"Old Man Xuan and Qi are truly incredible, if they can help me…"
1118
1119Zhong Yue sighed, he held onto Yin Fanxuan's hands and boarded the Kirin carriage with her, "Don't worry, I will help you all in disarming the threats from those weapons. The four weapons Old Man Xuan and Qi had forged will surely be given out to the experts of the Heaven Court to fight us. Senior Martial Brother Yu…"
1120
1121Hundun Yu raised his head and the smile of an honest man spread across his face, "I'm not worried at all. The scissors may counter me, but it is no match for a single swing of my Fu Sang Branch."
1122
1123Zhong Yue nodded, he turned to Fu Li and pondered moments before saying, "Your seventh spine isn't cultivated, that makes it your death spot."
1124
1125Fu Li held a solemn face as he replied, "Not only mine, it's also the death spots for all the Creators of Star Torrent Fortress! Four of the human leaders cultivate the same arts and techniques as mine!"
1126
1127Zhong Yue's face turned solemn and said in a stern voice, "Cultivating the seventh spine requires the arts and techniques of the Huaxu Clan. Although I do understand some of the Huaxu cultivations, I am no expert in it. I've once come across a cultivation art, but it is only suited for ladies…"
1128
1129Fu Li grew despondent, "The Huaxu Clan's cultivations are only designed for females. If I cultivate it, my little brother will eventually shrink into my stomach. By then, I'll turn into a female…"
1130
1131Yin Fanxuan's blushed, she turned around and entered the carriage not wanting to hear him blabbering anymore.
1132
1133Zhong Yue comforted, "I'll find you a Huaxu expert who can help you in this. Don't you worry much."
1134
1135However, Fu Li was still worried. Zhong Yue walked into the carriage and sat beside Yin Fanxuan, he said worryingly, "Yinxuan, your lethal weakness, it's difficult…"
1136
1137Yin Fanxuan was also incredibly anxious. The Divine Dragon Bell did manage to find her death spot. If she were to encounter the bell again, she would have no choice but to die!
1138
1139The Saint Spirit gave her success, but it was her fatal weakness.
1140
1141"Husband, Old Man Xuan and Qi also forged a weapon for you. In the Heaven Court, during Heavenly Monarch's birthday celebration, the Heaven Court's experts may not come for me, but they will definitely have their eyes on you." Yin Fanxuan was concerned, "Do you have any way to stop it?"
1142
1143"A weapon that counters me entirely?" Zhong Yue replied casually, "The armillary sphere Old Man Xuan and Qi had forged is only what I wanted them to forge. Whoever comes to me with it will die."
1144
1145Yin Fanxuan's eyes widened in shock. She said helplessly, "No wonder Imperial Emperor Xian Tian makes you his left-hand man."
1146
1147Zhong Yue pondered deeply, he didn't know how to tackle the Divine Dragon Bell. Old Man Xuan and Qi's Divine Dragon Bell was truly admirable, it truly was the counter to the Innate Saint Spirit Bod.
1148
1149And Yin Fanxuan will be forced to face it, there was simply no other way around!
1150
1151Suddenly, Yin Fanxuan smiled, "Husband, don't worry about me. This is what I must go through, it is my own tribulation. If I make it through this, any other Divine Dragon Bell-similar weapons in the future will not be a problem for me anymore. This Divine Dragon Bell, I will handle it myself!"
1152
1153Zhong Yue startled, it was at this moment that he recalled how his wife was a supreme genius who stood above everyone else of her generation. If anyone was qualified to find a counter to the Divine Dragon Bell, it would be her.
1154
1155That said, if she wasn't able to handle the Divine Dragon Bell, it was most likely he wouldn't be able too.
1156
1157"Alright, the Divine Dragon Bell will be yours to handle!" Rays flashed in his eyes and he laughed. "Old Man Xuan and Qi failed to take our lives this time. But what has yet to be finished here, will be carried to the Heaven Court. There, we will face with stronger powers and greater obstacles, and by then, Fanxuan, don't step in, I will handle all that's to come at us!"
1158
1159Chapter 930: Husband and Wife Couple Saints
1160
1161
1162
1163When Old Man Xuan and Qi rushed back to the Heaven Court and met with the Heavenly Monarch, they reported, "Your Majesty, we failed to kill King Yi of the Xian Tian Palace."
1164
1165Heavenly Monarch Di Ming locked his brows but still smiled shortly after, "So Mu Xiantian came to their rescue and stopped you? Mister Mo, your predications are wrong it seems. Mu Xiantian is not in a life-or-death closed door cultivation for the breakthrough to the monarch level."
1166
1167Behind the throne where a folding screen stood, a handsome young man walked out with a frown, "Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is not in the life-or-death closed door cultivation? Strange… does it not require a life-or-death closed door cultivation for the innate gods to breakthrough the level of monarch?"
1168
1169Heavenly Monarch Di Ming shook, "Tracing back even to the oldest time, there was only one Heavenly Monarch who didn't go through the life-or-death closed door cultivation, the others all had done so. Mu Xiantian shouldn't be an exception."
1170
1171The young man was none other than Mo Yin. He pondered seconds and commented, "For Imperial Emperor Xian Tian to dare challenge Your Majesty's throne, he should be at the edge of becoming a monarch. But he still hasn't gone into the life-or-death closed door cultivation, something's off…"
1172
1173Old Man Xuan and Qi exchanged a look and they both laughed together, "Your Majesty, Mister Mo, you are both overthinking. We didn't leave because of Mu Xiantian, but we left because we've lost a bet with King Yi."
1174
1175Mo Yin suddenly lost his chill and exclaimed in shock, "Seniors, why did you bet against him? If he agreed to a bet, then it means that he was already confident in beating you!"
1176
1177Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was also between laughters and tears, he asked, "What did the two old men betted against?"
1178
1179"Forging skills."
1180
1181Old Man Xuan said, "We've bet with him on who would forge better. If he won, we were to let him go; if he lost, he would die."
1182
1183Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Mo Yin exclaimed in unison, "And you lost!?"
1184
1185They were shocked. In this era alone, these two old men stood head and shoulders above everyone else in regards to forging. And now, they were saying that they had lost to Mister Yi of the Xian Tian Palace in forging?
1186
1187Even being an innate god in his past life, there was still no way Mister Yi could've won!
1188
1189One must know that during the interception with Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, Old Man Xuan and Qi had forged a divine bow and cornered Imperial Emperor Xian Tian with it. This alone showed just how strong they were.
1190
1191How could Mister Yi have such a level of skills?
1192
1193Old Man Qi sighed, "We did lose. The Xian Tian Palace's Mister Yi sure deserves his title. The treasure he was forging was out of our league, it was way beyond what we could forge."
1194
1195Rays flashed across Mo Yin's eyes as he asked, "What was it he was forging? And what was it you were forging?"
1196
1197Old Man Xuan and Qi shook, "What he is forging is unlike anything we've seen before. It can attract the Daos of this heaven and earth, and there is even a trace of Dao that is even more saintly and terrifying that it even caused the phantoms of the gods to praise and enhance it."
1198
1199"Praise and enhancement from the phantoms of gods?" Mo Yin was puzzled.
1200
1201"It seems like they are the spirits that descended from the Void World." They too weren't sure as what happened was beyond their imagination. They had never come across an incident where forging a weapon would attract the spirits to descend from the Void World.
1202
1203"The treasures we've forged are tailored against the weaknesses of the wild human Fu Shu, the Yinkang Clan's Innate Saint Spirit Body, the Hundun Clan's Hundun Yu, and Mister Yi."
1204
1205Old Man Xuan and Qi took out 4 weapons and Old Man Xuan said, "Here they are. Our [Demonic Chant of Reincarnation] in addition to the Million Treasure Dao Hammer combined together can help us find their weaknesses during the forging process. Subsequently, we will be able to forge a mystic weapon targeted on their death spots."
1206
1207"This needle is called the Soul Killer, can be used to kill Creator Fu Shu."
1208
1209"This scissors is called the Soul Cutter, can be used to kill Hundun Yu. But Hundun Yu has the Hundun Clan's monarch-weapon Fusang Branch, making him a hard target."
1210
1211"This is the Divine Dragon Bell, can be used to kill the Yinkang Clan's Innate Saint Spirit Body, she won't be able to escape from this weapon."
1212
1213"This divine weapon is called the Six Paths Armillary Sphere, it is the best of the best. With this in hand, one can suppress and cease all of Mister Yi's life essences!"
1214
1215Mo Yin's eyes brightened up, he smiled, "To have forged these 4 weapons, seniors have already taken down Mister Yi. Your contributions are immeasurable! Can these 4 weapons…"
1216
1217Old Man Xuan and Qi handed it over while sighing, "To kill a talent like Mister Yi not in a fair and square battle but through shady works of weapons. We do not view this as the true way."
1218
1219Mo Yin straightened his back and said solemnly, "Seniors may be from a demonic background, but Yin admires your honorable mindset. But Mister Yi is far too dangerous, he alone is more threatening than a billion warriors, or three or even four Imperial Emperors. If he is not taken down, he and King Zi Guang will both work together and stand unstoppable ever since. I've lured him to the Heaven Court to join with His Majesty's birthday celebration so that he can present his head to His Majesty, that is the greatest present he can offer to His Majesty. Now, what concerns me more is whether or not Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is in a life-or-death closed door cultivation!"
1220
1221…
1222
1223The Kirin carriage was closing in on the Zi Wei Imperial Star. The atmosphere around was growing more vivid and lively.
1224
1225From time to time, they could see luxuriously decorated fleets from afar. Some belonged to the celestials and others to demons. There were the Creators and even Imperial Emperors, they were most probably the sovereigns of the races.
1226
1227After all, it was the Heavenly Monarch's 70,000th Birthday Ceremony. Naturally, this event caught the attention of all races, factions, and powers across the universe, even some forces in the ancient universe and the Realm Monarchs had sent their men to pay respects.
1228
1229This era was still under the rule of the Heaven Court, and the Heavenly Monarch was still the nominal ruler of the universe.
1230
1231If it were Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's 70,000th Birthday Ceremony, the celebrations surely wouldn't be as festive.
1232
1233Zhong Yue looked around and thought, Although Heaven Court has lost its reputation for not stepping in to cease the wars, it still is the strongest force in the universe, the one and only rightful power to rule all. Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is still far from success.
1234
1235The difficulty of toppling a regime that spanned across a whole universe was staggering!
1236
1237Soon after, the Kirin carriage entered the Imperial Star. Zhong Yue's arrival wasn't grand, but still warranted attention. The three Heavens that were hovering above the carriage alone were able to dim down the other treasures' attractiveness. Three Heavens weren't something that ordinary races could pull out.
1238
1239Probably only the monarch races that had been staying in the State of Heavenly River like the Yinkang Clan were able to pull out such treasures for their daughter's marriage.
1240
1241Inside of the carriage, Zhong Yue was playing with the Tian Pan. It wasn't a divine weapon but just a vessel to the Heavenly Dao. However, its power was not to be underestimated despite it being incomplete.
1242
1243There was a reason why Zhong Yue decided to forge the Tian Pan instead of other 29 Heavenly Daos. The Heavenly Dao contained by Tian Pan was a special one, looking into it would allow one to reveal the heaven's and earth's secrets.
1244
1245In short, the Tian Pan was actually a calculatory treasure that uses the Heavenly Dao.
1246
1247He was planning to use it to improve his divinatory calculation technique!
1248
1249At the moment, his divinatory calculation technique with the Yin and Yang lines had reached a bottleneck. However, with the help of the Tian Pan, he would be able to take a huge step forward!
1250
1251I want to combine the eight Innate Daos and also the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi], the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace], and [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture] into a new mystic art. But it'd be impossible to achieve it on my own even after exceeding the limit of my intelligence.
1252
1253Zhong Yue's eyes flashed and he kept the Tian Pan in his Dao Yi Secret Realm, he thought, With Tian Pan, I will be able to improve my divinatory calculation technique to a level no one has ever achieved before. By then, the difficulty of combining the four cultivation arts into one will be greatly lowered!
1254
1255In the Dao Yi Secret Realm, in front of the Pan Gu celestial, Tian Pan was hovering quietly in front of the giant.
1256
1257All of a sudden, the giant's six arms swayed and its hands made various hand seals, stamping the seals into the mystical Tian Pan.
1258
1259Immediately, the mystical patterns on Tian Pan's surface glowed brightly as if they were alive while the mystical patterns also surfaced from Tian Pan's inner walls and bottom.
1260
1261These patterns felt like representations of the universe. They were changing nonstop and evolving themselves as they tried to uncover the marvelousness of the changes of Daos.
1262
1263Zhong Yue looked at the changes and a thought came into his mind. Then, the Pan Gu celestial made more seals, the Innate Daos of Yin, Yang, Celestial, Demon, Lightning, and Yi had been turned into the Yin and Yang lines that swarmed into the Tian Pan!
1264
1265At the same time, the Space Dao and Time Dao flew out from Zhong Yue's Space Secret Realm and Time Secret Realm, also turning into the Yin and Yang lines and entering Tian Pan.
1266
1267Inside of Zhong Yue's body, in the secret realms, tens of thousands of his incarnations were agitated, rushing into the Dao Yi Secret Realm and leaping into the Tian Pan.
1268
1269With Tian Pan's strong divinatory calculation on the Heavenly Daos and a million of his incarnations, his road to combining the arts into one had officially started!
1270
1271Meanwhile, Zhong Yue himself was still sitting in the carriage as the Kirins galloped in midair along the Heavenly River, moving toward the South Heaven Gate.
1272
1273On the front of the cabin, Fu Shu raised his hand and the three Heavens showered lights down, forming three layers of light that illuminated the carriage from within. The sounds of the Daos sounded in their ears and the others were pushed away around them, none were able to get too close to them now.
1274
1275It was an act to show his status and also to ensure the carriage's safety.
1276
1277Fu Shu was brawny and had dragon scales paving across his waist, making him look like an indomitable warrior when the lights reflected off the scales.
1278
1279And although Hundun Yu didn't appear as heroic, he had the Fusang Branch, making him like a towering tree that could never been brought down. Red streaks ran across the Fusang Branch's surface while the air of Hundun intermittently leaked out from it. It was truly stunning.
1280
1281As such, the others quickly distanced themselves from the Kirin carriage, not daring to come close at all.
1282
1283Suddenly, a shout came from afar, "Yi Feng, it's you! I was just wondering who this flamboyant character could be!"
1284
1285Zhong Yue walked out of the cabin, he looked out and laughed, "Tian Xuanzi, long time no see."
1286
1287Far away, there was a group of men with marquees above their heads, it was the Juling Clan. The Juling Clan was a sovereign race, a level above monarch races.
1288
1289Thus, the Juling Clan had also sent out a group of men to celebrate the incumbent Heavenly Monarch's 70,000th birthday.
1290
1291Tian Xuanzi stood on one of the marquees, he had grown even taller and brawnier than before. Most would have to raise their heads just so they could see his face. He laughed, "Where's your wife? Ask her to come out. After I was defeated the last time, I went back to fix my flaws and cultivate even harder. Now, I am stronger, I will fight her again and this time, I don't think I will lose!"
1292
1293Zhong Yue smiled, but before he spoke, clamors happened among the guests.
1294
1295"Mister Yi is also here?"
1296
1297"Xian Tian Palace's King Yi has come? He dares to come?"
1298
1299"I heard King Yi and his wife are known as the Husband and Wife Couple Saints. They are both invincible to those in the same cultivation level, they have defeated every expert on the Heavenly River!"
1300
1301"The Xian Tian Palace and Heaven Court are nemesis, but King Yi dares come? How daring! The Husband and Wife Couple Saints are just Deities, the Heaven Court has numerous experts, it'd be more than easy to kill them!"
1302
1303"Husband and Wife Couple Saints?" Zhong Yue was puzzled, since when did they get these titles?
1304
1305"Couple Saints my ass!" Tian Xuanzi laughed, "I've fought with Yi Feng before, he didn't defeat me! Moreover, he concedes that he has lost to me before in the Imperial Granary!"
1306
1307Chapter 931: Causing A Ruckus
1308
1309
1310
1311"Master, who is this big guy? Why is he so annoying?" asked a puzzled Fu Li.
1312
1313Fu Li might be very muscular and strong, but when compared to Tian Xuanzi, he was much smaller. The Ju Ling Clan was the only race in the world that was born naturally with spirits and their Juling spirits weren't any weak and puny spirits, making them one of the strongest races in this universe. This was, of course, excluding the innate gods.
1314
1315Due to them inherently born with spirits, everyone from the Ju Ling Clan was considered an innate spirit body.
1316
1317But that did not come without a side effect; because of this, the Ju Ling Clan fertility was very low, and with the invasion of Six Paths Reincarnation, they struggled hard just to maintain the purity of their race, which required a lot of time and effort, therefore, restricting how much they could achieve.
1318
1319With a low reproduction rate, a race's power will be greatly limited. Without a large population, there would be few talents born in the race. And even if they managed to occupy a huge territory, they wouldn't have enough people to guard them.
1320
1321Fortunately, given the Juling Clan's disciples who were all innate spirit bodies, each of them was all very powerful and they were able to keep themselves together.
1322
1323Zhong Yue laughed and said, "He is Tian Xuanzi of the Juling Clan. Back in the Earth Order Era, a Heavenly Monarch rose from their clan. They are one of the current eight sovereign races."
1324
1325Then, from the Juling Clan came an old voice that scolded, "Tian Xuanzi, where are your manners! Mister Yi agreed to duel with you because he had no other options and he was obviously holding back. Mister Yi, please forgive this idiot's rudeness."
1326
1327Zhong Yue looked towards the voice and he saw an old man, who seemed to be the head of the group. He quickly paid his respect to the old man, "Don't worry, elder, no offense taken. Besides, I was indeed defeated by Senior Martial Brother Tian Xuanzi before everyone's eyes."
1328
1329"Old man, you heard it? I won…." said Tian Xuanzi arrogantly as he looked back.
1330
1331"You better stop speaking so much nonsense!"
1332
1333The old man dragged Tian Xuanzi back to him and started raining down fists onto his face, leaving a bloodied bruised Tian Xuanzi's on the ground, "Speak in such foul manner and I will break your legs as well!"
1334
1335After giving Tian Xuanzi a beating, the old man finally felt that the air stuck in his chest cleared off. And he was not the only one that felt that way; the other Juling Clan's members also felt very comfortable at Tian Xuanzi getting his dues. He never gave any chances to anyone and had the guts to insult everyone. And now, it truly was something to celebrate that he was beaten up by the Ju Ling Clan's elder.
1336
1337The old man then laughed, "Mister Yi, do you mind if we talk for a moment?"
1338
1339Zhong Yue nodded and Fu Li immediately maneuvered the carriage towards the Juling Clan's group. Zhong Yue got out of the carriage, and greeted the Juling Clan's elder, who quickly greeted back and they both sat right onto the ground.
1340
1341"This old man's name is Ling Zheng. Please forgive my rudeness for not being able to meet you back then when Mister Yi and Madam Yi visited Juling Clan for I was in cultivation. Where is Madam Yi today?" said the old man.
1342
1343Zhong Yue replied, "Still in cultivation inside the carriage."
1344
1345Li Zheng's eyes blinked and he quickly said softly, "This time, Heavenly Monarch is not up to something good by inviting everyone to his birthday celebration. We Juling Clan had marital relationship with Xian Tian Palace and Mister Yi married the Yinkang Clan's clan master's daughter, perhaps we can form an alliance just in case. Also, words had it that the Yinkang Clan had removed the bloodline seal. Do you think they will remain in the State of Heavenly River? However, even as a monarch race, they still wouldn't be able to get out from there just by themselves."
1346
1347And this was when Zhong Yue's mind became crystal clear; the Juling Clan was also sitting on the fence and they would fall to the winning side but at the same time, they wanted to place their bet on both sides. Previously, they wanted to please the Heavenly Monarch but on the other side, they had a marriage with Xian Tian Palace and because of that, the Heavenly Monarch was furious at Juling Clan's actions after he declared war against Xian Tian Palace and pressured the ancient sovereign race heavily.
1348
1349Hence, upon knowing that the Heaven Court could no longer benefit them anymore, the Juling Clan immediately turned towards Xian Tian Palace.
1350
1351But they couldn't be blamed either as apart from the Zhongyang Clan, none of the monarch races were doing well. They were being pressured and treated as partially hostile by the other races and even the Zhong Yang Clan was not as glorious as they once were. Hence, the Juling Clan's higher-ups were merely trying to fight for the best for their clan.
1352
1353Zhong Yue smiled, "Elder…."
1354
1355"Just call me senior martial brother."
1356
1357Ling Zheng said fervourly, "You are, after all, a reborn innate god so you are my elder instead!"
1358
1359"Don't worry, senior martial brother."
1360
1361Zhong Yue smiled, "Imperial Emperor Xian Tian definitely knows that we are only strong when united. Did Tian Xuanzi marry Xian Tian Palace's little princess?"
1362
1363"No, that marriage was forfeited. Tian Xuanzi's mouth is ridiculous and the little princess refused to marry him. In the end, it is my daughter that was married to the third prince of Xian Tian Palace."
1364
1365With a weird expression, Zhong Yue thought, Why did Mu Suge never mention this?
1366
1367Tian Xuanzi, on the other hand, laughed and added, "Yi Feng, you may be a king now but at the same time, you are deprived of happiness. For instance, there is no place for you and your wife in the Heavenly Deity level ranking battles."
1368
1369Zhong Yue was intrigued; ever since he became the king, he was stationed in Heaven Suppression Fortress and so had been cut off from the opportunity to compete with the strong individuals in the same generation.
1370
1371While he held a high post and became stronger as the day passed and continually facing off against those beyond his level, he had also inevitably forgotten about those from the same generation.
1372
1373As a result, his presence was completely different from what a Heavenly Deity possesses but instead, his presence was rather much close to that of a Creator or Imperial Emperor.
1374
1375But this did not make him too arrogant from taking the same generation competition too lightly. Though the older generations were undoubtedly powerful, they were too limited by their traditions and their unwillingness to accept new things. On the other side, unlike the older generations, the younger generations were more likely to come up with new ideas and develop new paths.
1376
1377While the younger generations could not compare to elders in terms of strength, they were destined to be the ones to eventually take over this universe!
1378
1379Hence, there was more to gain than lose if Zhong Yue were to participate in competitions with them.
1380
1381"And your rank among the Heavenly Deity level gods?" asked Zhong Yue with a smile.
1382
1383Tian Xuanzi was choked by this question and he turned away as he refused to answer.
1384
1385"This incompetent fool is ranked 32nd."
1386
1387"32nd? Tian Xuanzi's strength is capable of entering the top ten in the Deity level but why is he only 32nd in the Heavenly Deity level?" exclaimed a shock Zhong Yue.
1388
1389Ling Zhen explained, "There will always be stronger foes at every level. Tian Xuanzi was a few years late in entering the Heavenly Deity level so it was normal that he only managed to obtain rank 32nd. Given enough time, Tian Xuanzi will be able to squeeze into the top ten or even top five."
1390
1391Tian Xuanzi then smirked, "If I were to compete again, I will only be satisfied with being number one. What the hell is number five? Yi Feng, what rank do you think you and your wife will be able to obtain? Are you both going to keep the Couple Saint title?"
1392
1393Zhong Yue thought for a while and replied, "I wouldn't dare to brag about being first or second, but…."
1394
1395He smiled, "If we were to take part in it, we would both be undefeatable in the Heavenly Deity level."
1396
1397Tian Xuanzi's eyes widened up and he stared right at Zhong Yue, which made Zhong Yue burst out laughing, "I'm just kidding, don't take it too seriously."
1398
1399A breath slipped out of Tian Xuanzi's mouth right away and he replied, "I also thought that you were joking. Although both of you had not been competing with the same generation for a very long time, you both still have the Couple Saint title on top of you and acquired quite a fame for yourselves ever since that battle in the State of Heavenly River. You two are still ranked very high among the Heavenly Deities and far above my rank with you being number nine and your wife being number seven."
1400
1401Fu Li who was standing on the other side immediately shouted, "Only 7th and 9th? Who created this ranking?"
1402
1403"It's created by the Heaven Court, if I'm not wrong, it's someone called Mo Yin who is in charge of it. Everyone in the Heavenly Deity level is ranked based on their strength and apart from the Heavenly Deity level, there is also the True Deity, Deity Overlord, and Deity Emperor level rankings. Only the Creators and Imperial Emperors are not ranked because of how powerful they are and how rarely they are seen in actual combat."
1404
1405Mo Yin?
1406
1407Zhong Yue was slightly stunned but he betrayed no emotions on his face. Tian Xuanzi continued, "There is something called the Board of Saints in the Heaven Court and this was also set up by Mo Yin. The Board of Saints is divided into different categories ranging from Deity, Heavenly Deity, True Deity, Deity Overlord, and Deity Emperor. It records how strong the gods in this world are and the top ten in each Board of Saints are all conferred the title of 'Saint'."
1408
1409The Heaven Court is looking far ahead by creating the Board of Saints, listing everyone into the rankings, giving them clear details about everyone they are competing with. With that, they could recruit those who are willing to join and pressure those that turned them down.
1410
1411Zhong Yue praised in his heart.
1412
1413The Juling Clan group then moved into South Heaven Gate and were met with the marvelous scene presented by the Zi Wei Heaven Court that ruled the entire universe. Sacred mountains floated in the air, divine palaces were scattered around and the entire landscape was filled with scenes that could not be described by words alone.
1414
1415The Imperial Star was the best sacred ground in the Zi Wei Galaxy and the Heaven Court was the best of the best where the world's fate was gathered there.
1416
1417Zhong Yue originally did not buy into the concept of fate. However, upon being welcomed by the natural celestial Qi so condensed that it was visible even to flesh eyes, Zhong Yue couldn't help but be slightly more convinced by it.
1418
1419"Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's fate is not as strong as it used to be."
1420
1421Ling Zheng looked at the fate visible on top of Heaven Court and commented, "It was so much more marvelous when he first became the Heavenly Monarch. At that time, the fate from the countless sacred grounds within Zi Wei Galaxy rumbled, launched straight into the skies, forming massive alluring pillars made of light that guarded the Heaven Court and that was the true definition of marvelous! Now, the Heaven Court's fate is falling apart slowly and it was nothing compared to the older days."
1422
1423Zhong Yue's heart thumped right away as he thought, These light pillars! Is this not even considered as prosperous?
1424
1425"The lose of fate signals the downfall. It will be very difficult to raise it up again."
1426
1427Ling Zheng added, "Do you know how strong the fate of the Fuxi Celestial Race's last Heavenly Monarch was? He was the ruler of all worlds and realms and even the ancient universe lowered its head before him. But after his passing, the race's fate burst part instantly. Though there are still monarch level existences at that time, the fate just couldn't be raised again after falling apart and where is Fuxi Celestial Race now after 100,000 years?"
1428
1429Hearing this, Zhong Yue clenched his fists. Fuxi's fate has reached the rock bottom where it could drop nowhere further, it's now time for us to rise again!
1430
1431Sometime later, along with the other gods, they all registered themselves in the South Heaven Gate, assigned with their own accommodations and the Xian Tian Palace represented by Zhong Yue was arranged to stay in the Heaven Court's West Palace.
1432
1433Upon arriving at the palace, Zhong Yue immediately detected countless experts surging towards them, examining the palace without hiding their hostility.
1434
1435Fu Li was enraged by their behavior and just as he was about to retaliate, Zhong Yue stopped him, "There is no need for that. Senior Martial Brother Yu, just plant the Fusang Branch right here."
1436
1437Hun Dunyu immediately did as he say and smiled, "I'm tired of holding it as well…."
1438
1439Just as the Fusang Branch was buried into the ground, Zhong Yue let out a roar, launching his Innate Golden Crow Yuan Shen towards the Fusang Branch and set the tree branch ablaze with raging fire!
1440
1441Then, as the countless presences swiped towards them, triggering the Fusang Branch and with the addition of Zhong Yue's psyche, the monarch weapon's power was unleashed; the Fusang Branch grew in a breath's time, turned into an overwhelming divine tree burning with raging fire and crushed the unscrupulous psyche sweeps with absolute power!
1442
1443The ancient monarch level Dao rumbled and vibrated and the many strong magnates that were using their psyche to peek at Zhong Yue were struck by an invisible force, inflicting various levels of injury onto them!
1444
1445At the same time, another rumble came from one of the palaces and with a loud bell noise, a monarch level bell was activated by the Fusang Branch, causing it to unleash terrifying soundwaves that shattered the palace. Then, it slowly ascended into the sky and started intimidating Fusang Branch on the other side.
1446
1447The power of the two monarch weapons clashed, creating an impact that shook the palaces. Suddenly, another monarch level presence rose out of nowhere, crushing the palaces around it as a massive disc floated in midair. It shrouded the surroundings with striped patterns. It was the Haoying Clan's monarch weapon!
1448
1449Right at the moment, the Haoying Clan's monarch weapon started releasing its power, another palace crumbled into dust as another monarch weapon emerged; this time, it was a burning divine cauldron that lit up half the sky with its flame!
1450
1451But the chain effect did not stop right there as one after another monarch weapons revealed themselves before the monarch weapons in the different directions' palaces emerged, pressing the gods located in palaces without monarch weapons all the way down to the ground.
1452
1453Hundun Yu's mind was pitch black as he never thought there would be such big movements caused by merely planting the Fusang Branch!
1454
1455Zhong Yue let out a peal of soft laughter and said proudly, "I knew it, these sovereign and monarch races are not vegetarians. They are here with their monarch weapons to prevent from being eliminated by the Heavenly Monarch."
1456
1457Chapter 932: 24 Monarch Weapons In The Heaven Court
1458
1459
1460
1461What is happening?
1462
1463Chaos spread across the Heaven Court; the South Heaven Gate's Heavenly Kings' divisions, the Heavenly River's source's navy camps, the North, South, East and West navy camps, the Imperial Royal Guards and the many other divisions were all like headless insects. Their leaders were clueless about what to do and all they could do was just look at the dangerous monarch weapons empty minds!
1464
1465This time, the many gods in Heaven Court had already made full preparations for the upcoming Heavenly Monarch's birthday celebration; if anyone dared to actually try to stir up trouble, they would act with lightning speed to make sure that the celebration proceeded as planned without any hindrances.
1466
1467But now, before the celebration even started, the preparations they made were all thwarted!
1468
1469"Which damned brat did all of this!"
1470
1471The three great Heavenly Kings in South Heaven Gate slammed the table and shouted furiously, "Who is going to clean this mess up!"
1472
1473In the Imperial Garden and Qing Ling Palace that was surrounded by the four great palaces were now facing the impact and shockwaves that were so strong that they affected Imperial Garden and Qing Ling Palace's fate unleashed by the monarch weapons.
1474
1475In the Qing Ling Palace, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming frowned slightly, summoned Ghost Master and said, "Youmin, go and take a look at what happened."
1476
1477Ghost Master Gui Youmin stood up and he vanished after nodding towards Heavenly Monarch Di Ming. When he arrived at the scene, he looked around, only to find none of the many monarch races' representatives arrived at the scene but there were already about 20 monarch weapons that emerged from the Heaven Court.
1478
1479Gui Youmin frowned, heading straight towards Division of Sky Surveillance, he summoned the head of the Division of Sky Surveillance and asked, "You are responsible for keeping an eye on anything happening in the Heaven Court. Nothing should be able to hide from your senses. Now, tell me what happened? This incident had already alerted His Majesty."
1480
1481The Division of Sky Surveillance's head was an Imperial Emperor. Like an ancient tree, his body was rooted to the Division of Sky Surveillance and his body reached all the way into the skies; eyes were all over his body and on each leaf, there was also an eye. His tree branches reached all the way into the Void, rooting deep into the dimensions to ease keeping an eye on the Heavens' operation.
1482
1483Besides, in the Division of Sky Surveillance were countless other gods from the other unique races like the celestial race of Tian Mu, Tian Ting, Tian Jue, and Tian Ming. These gods were standing on top of the head of Division of Sky Surveillance, observing every movement in the Zi Wei Heaven Court, Imperial Star, Zi Wei Galaxy, and other lands. They even secretly kept an eye on the ancient universe and the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds to observe the Void World's operation.
1484
1485The head of the Division of Sky Surveillance who was able to detect every movement in the universe answered Gui Youmin's question, "Right Prime Minister, in the Heaven Court's West Heaven Palace, the accommodation assigned to Xian Tian Palace's Mister Yi, a young god from the Hundun Clan had brought the Hundun Clan's monarch weapon, the Fusang Tree with him. He planted it down and when the West Heaven Palace's individuals tried to spy on them, their psyche triggered this divine tree and caused this ruckus."
1486
1487Gui Youmin frowned greatly, "Xian Tian Palace's Mister Yi is definitely the one pulling the strings behind all this. He is trying to trigger the clash between the monarch weapons to weaken His Majesty's might."
1488
1489However, Gui Youmin was also clueless before such a chaotic situation; in this era, though monarchs were not as rare as before, monarch level weapons were still one of a kind. After being blessed by their races' worshippings, some of these monarch weapons had already given birth to their own spirit.
1490
1491When these one of a kind monarch weapons met each other, none of them will be able to gain the upper hand against each other, hence, it was only natural for them to unleash every bit of their strength to suppress each other!
1492
1493And just how powerful were these almighty monarch weapons? Back then, when Zhong Yue plotted against the Fuxi traitor, Fu Yuchu, the traitor fell into Zhong Yue's trap and killed the Zheng Race's grand ancestor before being injured critically by the Haoying Clan's monarch weapon. As such, without any options left, Fu Yuchu, fled right into the Haoying Clan's monarch tomb and died there.
1494
1495At that time, Fu Yuchu was a peak Imperial Emperor, one with might beyond comprehension. However, he still stood no chance before the Haoying Clan's monarch weapon.
1496
1497Hence, as these monarch weapons went on a rampage, Gui Youmin was rendered helpless as he was not strong enough to suppress the weapons.
1498
1499He immediately returned to Ling Xiao Palace and reported back to the Heavenly Monarch, "This is the doings of Xian Tian Palace's Mister Yi. He caused the clash between the monarch weapons to weaken Your Majesty's fate."
1500
1501Heavenly Monarch Di Ming frowned, "Any brilliant ideas?"
1502
1503Beneath him, his servants were clueless as well and they all shook their heads with one exception. King Shen Wuwei walked out and said, "Your Majesty, just issue an order to the monarch races to have them retrieve their own monarch weapons respectively."
1504
1505Gui Youmin however, disagreed, "This will, however, hurt His Majesty's reputation as it feels like His Majesty was begging them."
1506
1507King Shen Wuwei frowned, "Then how about His Majesty act against these monarch weapons himself…."
1508
1509As he reached this part in his speech, King Shen Wuwei stopped saying anything. What if Heavenly Monarch Di Ming failed to suppress the weapons?"
1510
1511If he failed, just how embarrassing and awkward would the situation become at that point?
1512
1513Meanwhile, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming got up, dismissing everyone and walking away.
1514
1515At the back, Mo Yin was already on hold and he immediately congratulated, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. This is a sign that the monarchs will defend the Heaven Court."
1516
1517"The monarch races' monarch weapons are threatening me right now but you tried to make it a good thing. Mister, do you think you can withstand my wrath?"
1518
1519Heavenly Monarch Di Ming smirked, "And I assume the accommodations assigned to the guests is also your arrangement? You had them placed in the four great palaces according to the arrangement of the monarch weapons, guarding all directions and robbing me of my fate! Such nice arrangements!"
1520
1521At this point, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was consumed by rage; originally, the Heaven Court's fate had not been as bright as before. After being weakened by the monarch weapons this time, the fate had gotten even weaker than before and this was obviously Mo Yin's arrangement.
1522
1523Mo Yin, however, smiled, "The monarch weapons can also help in pushing Your Majesty's fate. Everything will be revealed once Goddess Queen Monarch arrives, Your Majesty."
1524
1525Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's heartbeat's pace was disrupted for a second; his wife was also from a monarch race, the Wuming Clan. She was the current master of the Wuming Clan and resided in her clan's sacred ground that was not in the Heaven Court.
1526
1527Mo Yin laughed, "Goddess Queen Monarch will be here with the Wuming Clan's monarch weapon and by then, she will turn the tables around. With that, everything will be just like what I said, the fate of the world will slowly flow into the Heaven Court and Your Majesty's reign will last for eternity!"
1528
1529Heavenly Monarch Di Ming let out a relieved breath upon hearing this and he apologized, "I've wronged you, Mister. Please accept my apologies."
1530
1531In West Heaven Palace, Zhong Yue, Hundun Yu, and the others, however, did not feel much under the protection of the Fusang Tree. The situation was also about the same for the other races for their clan's own respective monarch weapon also protected them.
1532
1533But things were different to the others from the other palaces; they were all slammed onto the ground by the almighty weapons' auras and even those Imperial Emperors were struggling against the wrath of these monarch weapons!
1534
1535Hundun Yu immediately took out his mirror and started recording this disastrous event into the mirror, "The human had me plant down the tree, which resulted in this disaster. I assume that the human is bearing ill intentions for having me planting the tree."
1536
1537Zhong Yue reached his head over and he asked in surprise, "Is Senior Martial Brother Yu recording my history? If so, you shouldn't add in any personal opinion but just facts. Whether or not I am wrong or not, the later generations will decide."
1538
1539Hundun Yu asked, "You are meaning…."
1540
1541Zhong Yue replied, "Remove everything after "I assume"."
1542
1543Hundun Yu nodded and Zhong Yue cast aside his worries. He examined the powerful Fusang Tree and though he did not know how Hundun Clan cultivated, it was worth it to study this tree because it was possible to acquire a powerful technique through observing the tree.
1544
1545Hundun Yu, on the other hand, did not erase the words Zhong Yue told him to erase but instead, he added another phrase, "The human wants me to remove my opinions and comments, fearing that his reputation will be damaged."
1546
1547Suddenly, Zhong Yue turned into the Golden Crow and flew right to the Fusang Tree. Upon reaching the top, the Golden Crow started breathing fire comfortably.
1548
1549If I could entirely absorb this heaven fire, it will turn into a very incredible item but it is very difficult.
1550
1551He landed on one of the leaves, looking around, including everything into his vision and far away, the endless Daos released by the monarch weapons created various unique phenomenals that were alluring yet dangerous.
1552
1553No, no! Their position is not right!
1554
1555Zhong Yue felt something was off as he noticed the odd position of the monarch weapons; the Heaven Court's fate was originally powerful. But now, it was greatly weakened by the monarch weapons, which was very strange.
1556
1557Heavenly Monarch Di Ming will definitely do this so how did this happen? Something is not right.
1558
1559He immediately flew down from the tree and requested Hundun Yu to keep the Fusang Tree away, to which Hundun Yu replied, "This is a clash between the monarch weapons. If I recklessly keep the tree away, the might of the monarch weapons will trace all the way to us and crush us all to dust!"
1560
1561Zhong Yue frowned slightly and at this time, another monarch weapon was triggered and was dragged into the clash!
1562
1563This monarch weapon came from the East Heaven Palace and with the addition of this monarch weapon, the originally wrecked fate started gathering again and like a rainbow, it charged straight towards Ling Xiao Palace!
1564
1565The original Heaven Court's fate was already so condensed that it was visible even to the naked eye, but now, it became even more immensely condensed enough to create various abnormal phenomena!
1566
1567An abnormal phenomenon when the stars circled the Imperial Star!
1568
1569The appearance of this new monarch weapon forcefully turned the table around, changing the dire situation to the most desired situation!
1570
1571At the same time, on Ling Xiao Palace, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's figure appeared, dwarfing the skies and bathing himself in the horrifying fate brought by the 24 monarch weapons!
1572
1573Seeing this, the many gods in the vast Heaven Court all knelt down to their lord!
1574
1575"All hail Heavenly Monarch Di Ming! Long live the king!"
1576
1577Their voices resonated and rumbled all the way into the Imperial Star!
1578
1579And before this scene, the guests that attended the birthday celebration were all in awe.
1580
1581Such fate, such might, who could actually win over the throne and pose a threat to Heavenly Monarch Di Ming?
1582
1583Zhong Yue too, was extremely shocked and he only managed to regain his train of thought after quite some time.
1584
1585"So I see. Mo Yin, Mister Mo is actually an expert in the Dao of Fate. Your Majesty, you should be here anytime soon?"
1586
1587"Mister Yi, I have arrived."
1588
1589Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's voice sounded, "King Zi Guang told me to stay in the dark to ease the mission so I did not show myself."
1590
1591"You should show up now."
1592
1593Zhong Yue said without hesitation, "Head straight towards Ling Xiao Palace to compete for the fate against Heavenly Monarch Di Ming!"
1594
1595Imperial Emperor Xian Tian flinched at his words. He immediately showed himself before Zhong Yue and frowned, "Mister Yi, this is not a small matter. If I actually go to fight against the Heavenly Monarch Di Ming for fate, he might accuse me of treason and strike me down with the 24 monarch weapons!"
1596
1597Zhong Yue calmly replied, "Worry not. If you go, the other monarchs with the same intention will not sit back and watch. They will follow your footsteps to compete for fate as they are unwilling to give up this rare opportunity. With that, we can disrupt Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's plan and also enhance our own strength!"
1598
1599Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was seemingly moved by this suggestion and he stared right into Zhong Yue's eyes as he said seriously, "Mister Yi, please don't harm me. If there is anything ..."
1600
1601"Do you trust me, Your Majesty?" Zhong Yue countered.
1602
1603Imperial Emperor Xian Tian stared at Zhong Yue and examined him thoroughly. He wanted to open the golden eye on his forehead but it was sealed away.
1604
1605This eye belonged to his teacher, the eye of the evil existence and he wanted to use this eye to see through Zhong Yue's origin and identity but it was sealed away.
1606
1607Because this was closely related to his life and everything he had worked for so he wanted to know if he could really trust Zhong Yue or not.
1608
1609Zhong Yue, however, stared back into Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's eyes and questioned again, "Do you believe in me, Your Majesty?"
1610
1611Imperial Emperor Xian Tian bit his teeth and after giving up trying to use the golden eye, he burst out laughing and said, "I believe in you!"
1612
1613With that, he flew right into the air and headed straight towards Ling Xiao Palace!
1614
1615Chapter 933: Five Monarchs Stealing The Fate
1616
1617
1618
1619"Your Majesty, Xian Tian is late!"
1620
1621Ling Xiao Palace trembled vigorously and a giant innate god descended. It was Imperial Emperor Xian Tian!
1622
1623Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's expression changed quickly. He was enraged by what he saw; Imperial Emperor Xian Tian descended right when he was about to claim the world's fate for himself. He could feel that a very huge portion of the fate was split away!
1624
1625In contrast to before, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was now publicly trying to steal Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's fate, which was blatant treason in Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's eyes!
1626
1627How dare he! But this is also a good chance to kill him! With the 24 monarch weapons, killing him will be nothing more than crushing an ant!
1628
1629Just as Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was about to lose control of his temper, another intruder laughed, "Your Majesty, Fellow Daoist Xian Tian, you are here early. Heh, is there still a place for me in this Ling Xiao Palace?"
1630
1631Another god descended; this monarch had the appearance of a very young man and had an extraordinary presence. As he emerged, he immediately took another portion of the fate!
1632
1633Then came another laughter as one more monarch level existence arrived, splitting the fate into four pieces. This time, this monarch was an old man with long limbs, pale white turtle shell and he had a crutch in his hands. He squeezed in among them and laughed, "It has been a long time, my friends. The last time we met was when Your Majesty became the new Heavenly Monarch."
1634
1635After the fate was split into four portions, another one appeared, and this time, this monarch was in a black robe. He then laughed, "Back then, after helping His Majesty acquire the throne, I have been living a peaceful life. I forgot to keep in touch with you guys. Please forgive me."
1636
1637The fate was now split into five!
1638
1639With that, the world's power and the monarch weapons' might that Heavenly Monarch Di Ming could utilize was extremely limited.
1640
1641Right now, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's expression did not look good at all. He looked at the four old friends that once helped him in becoming the new king with immense killing intent. However, he suddenly laughed, "Old friends, it is my fault for not keeping in touch with you after becoming the new king! Hahaha, today is my birthday and I'd like to talk and share something with you! This way please!"
1642
1643His voice rumbled through the skies and suppressed Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's voice and the other three monarchs' voice as he demonstrated extraordinary power.
1644
1645With that, the five strongest existences in this world dispersed their avatars and headed into Ling Xiao Palace.
1646
1647The 24 monarch weapons, however, remained brightly illuminated and suppressed the Heaven Court.
1648
1649Under the Fusang Tree, Zhong Yue frowned slightly as he looked at the 24 monarch weapons that turned into a complicated formation. Moving one would trigger the others and without even more monarch level existences to interfere, it was almost impossible to take them away.
1650
1651And as such, the 24 monarch weapons were going to be there for quite some time.
1652
1653"Mister Yi."
1654
1655Suddenly, Zhong Yue saw Mo Yin walking towards him after Zhong Yue turned around.
1656
1657"Mister Mo," greeted Zhong Yue.
1658
1659The two then sat under the Fusang Tree with Zhong Yue saying first, "I never would have thought Mister Mo was an expert in this field."
1660
1661Mo Yin said, "There are three types of arts left behind by the ancestors of my clan to calm the world. The first is the Six Paths, the second is fate and the third is karma. Acquiring one is sufficient to acquire the entire world. I have mastered the art of fate to a certain extent. I serve under Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and swore to bring His Majesty a peaceful world by clearing the darkness in this world!"
1662
1663Zhong Yue's heart pumped quickly for a second, The ancestors he spoke about, could they be the Fuxi Celestial Race? Six Paths, karma, fate…. The Six Paths is about controlling Reincarnation, karma is about controlling the world's karma and fate was about manipulating fate.
1664
1665Mo Yin then continued, "However, because of some unfortunate events, a traitor that had once mastered the art of Six Paths betrayed our clan and after a disastrous event, our clan is now gone. We have lost the art of karma and fate and I only managed to learn some of the art of fate through the ancient books I found. Mister Yi, your words about intelligence being nothing without strength really hit me hard. But as a reborn innate god, you wouldn't be able to understand how a sad child who only wants to restore his clan's honor would feel."
1666
1667Zhong Yue replied, "I once had some conflict with a lady that can manipulate karma. I wonder if Mister Mo knows her?"
1668
1669"Consort Tian Si?"
1670
1671Mo Yin blinked his eyes, "I met her once but our ideas are diametrically opposite. Her husband and her are both rare talents, but our ideas destined that we won't be able to work together. Mister Yi, I see that you have undergone quite a vigorous change? Your fate has dropped drastically, I am sure something unpleasant has happened."
1672
1673Mo Yin continued, "As soon as the fate decreases, one's fate will drop for the second and third time. The first time is still acceptable but the second time will start to wear one out and the third will kill that person. I am worried that you would not make it through the three falls. Previously, your fate is so strong that you have shown talents and signs of becoming a Heavenly Monarch. But now, your fate must have been destroyed by someone. Even if you are an innate god, this is not how fate works so you definitely have another identity that I do not know about."
1674
1675Zhong Yue was in awe hearing this; Great Si Ming destroyed his Imperial Star, shattered his future fate but now, a mere True Deity like Mo Yin managed to see through everything so Zhong Yue asked, "Mister Mo, do you have any techniques in repairing fate?"
1676
1677Mo Yin replied, "I have a technique to steal fate. I can rob Imperial Emperor Xian Tian of his fate and transfer it to you. Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wants to use your fate to become the Heavenly Monarch and in the same way, you can steal his fate to power yourself."
1678
1679Zhong Yue smiled, "If this technique of yours is so powerful, why is Heavenly Monarch's fate now being split into five portions?"
1680
1681"The more ups and downs there are in Heavenly Monarch Di Ming's life, the more he will rely on me."
1682
1683Mo Yin said, "That's why, I want to make myself someone that can be relied on but not on everything. I can't help him to conquer the world in one go and have to make him rely on me more and more. That way, I will be able to ask for more goods from him to make my clan great again."
1684
1685Zhong Yue's heart thumped hearing this and he gave Mo Yin a glance, "Mister Mo, don't you think you are playing with fire? I fear that you will eventually burn yourself."
1686
1687Mo Yin laughed, "But you haven't answered my question, Mister Yi. Do you want to steal Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's fate?"
1688
1689"There will be no eggs preserved if the nest falls. Now is still not the time."
1690
1691Zhong Yue smiled, "Perhaps in the future, Mister Mo will help me to steal his fate when you serve under me."
1692
1693Mo Yin sighed right away, "I fear that there will not be the chance. In order to prove that I am useful to Heavenly Monarch Di Ming, I need your life to do so. Mister Yi, previously I told you about, fry, boil, grill, and roast and among them, you have experienced frying. You were fried beside Old Man Xuan and Qi's furnace but you were not hurt at all so you passed. The next stage will be grilling and it's unknown if you could pass it unscathed or not."
1694
1695Mo Yin stood up, started leaving while he said, "I am very curious if Mister Yi's skills are better than pure intelligence."
1696
1697Zhong Yue watched him as he left and Fu Li walked up, "This brat is a human too but why is he such a bitch? Why is he treating you like that even though we are all humans?"
1698
1699"He and I, we are the same type. We are willing to give everything we have for the human race but our ways are different."
1700
1701Zhong Yue figured for a while and asked, "Fu Li, do you know the saying about Six Paths, fate and karma?"
1702
1703Fu Li replied, "There are some related things recorded in the ancient books in Star Torrent Fortress. They say that in the Earth Order Era's Heaven Court, Fuxi's Feng Clan had ten sects, the Tian Qiong, Tian Qi, Tian Yi, He Xiong, Tian Yang, Tian You, Hou Niao, Hou Chong, Lei Yu, and Tian Huang, each had different responsibilities. Tian Qiong was responsible for controlling the herbs and medicine in all worlds, Tian Qi on the heavenly weapons, Tian Yi on the Fuxi Celestial Race's army, He Xiong on marriage, Tian Yang on the male gods, Tian You on the female gods, Lei Yu on the weather, Hou Niao on the bird bodied gods, Hou Chong on the insect race, and the Tian Huang on the worlds' lifelines."
1704
1705"Among them, Tian Huang had three divisions that controlled Six Paths, fate and karma respectively. Their power is incredible. They all had a heaven scroll but the scrolls have gone missing since the war."
1706
1707Zhong Yue's heart thumped, Mo Yin and Tian Si are descendants of Tian Huang?
1708
1709Fu Li then asked, "What did he mean by grilling you, master?"
1710
1711"He is in charge of the Board of Saints, making it easy for him to grill me. All he had to do was just move me into the top in Board of Saints and I will become the target of all Heavenly Deities in the world."
1712
1713Zhong Yue said, "Do you think the other gods will be happy with that?"
1714
1715Just as they were talking, noises rose from the outside and the many gods shouted, "The Board of Saints has changed!"
1716
1717"The number one in the Board of Saints has changed!"
1718
1719"Xian Tian Palace's Yi Feng and his wife now occupy the top spots on the Board of Saints!"
1720
1721"Board of Saints has always been impartial. What did Mister Yi and Yin Fanxuan do to make their rank rise all the way up to the top?"
1722
1723"The True Deity level Board of Saints is also altered, a guy name Hundun Yu is now on the top!"
1724
1725"So this is what he meant by grilling," said Zhong Yue after hearing the news, "He threw us into the Board of Saints to grill us by making us the target of the other gods around us."
1726
1727His eyes blinked, "Among those challengers, there are bound to be some that carry deadly weapons that are extremely lethal against us. There will be weapons specifically forged by Old Man Xuan and Qi that will threaten us greatly!"
1728
1729Fu Li had a scare and he immediately shouted, "Then master and madam should not accept their challenge!"
1730
1731Suddenly, Yin Fanxuan's voice was heard, "Why not! How can we not accept the challenge?"
1732
1733Zhong Yue looked towards her and after seeing how energetic she was after coming out from her cultivation, he said, "Have you figured out a way to break the Divine Dragon Bell, darling?"
1734
1735"Not yet, I can't guarantee it yet," replied Yin Fanxuan.
1736
1737"How are the chances?" asked Zhong Yue.
1738
1739"Less than 20%," said a hesitant Yin Fanxuan.
1740
1741"Then I will accept and take on the challenges issued to you."
1742
1743Zhong Yue said decisively, "And Fu Li, you have to be careful as well. Your weakness has been exposed, be careful of that needle! Mo Yin will definitely hand it over to someone else to kill you!"
1744
1745Upon thinking of this needle, Fu Li's heart thumped and he couldn't help but shiver for a bit.
1746
1747Zhong Yue then looked at Hundun Yu and asked, "The tree still couldn't be kept away?"
1748
1749"If I kept it away, we would be crushed by the might of the other monarch weapons," replied Hundun Yu.
1750
1751"Without the tree, the scissors will be able to kill you like an ant. Mo Yin is really hard to deal with! He has planned everything out!"
1752
1753Zhong Yue stood up and walked away, "I will head over to Huaxu Clan's residence and look for a way for Fu Li to cultivate the seventh spine. You all stay here for the time being, do not leave this place recklessly!"
1754
1755Chapter 934: Future Monarchs
1756
1757
1758
1759"I'll go with you."
1760
1761Fu Li immediately volunteered, "This is the Heaven Court, there are powerful foes everywhere! What if they play dirty…."
1762
1763Zhong Yue smiled, "No, they won't. Mo Yin may not have the required strength to pull off his tactics, he still wouldn't resort to dirty tricks."
1764
1765Yin Fanxuan, however, did not hold the same thought, "But still, you have to be cautious. Darling, I will go see the messenger from my clan, perhaps my father is also here already."
1766
1767Zhong Yue thought for a while and after seeing no problem with that, he nodded.
1768
1769Now that the Yinkang Clan had broken the curse from Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan, they could finally get out from the State of Heavenly River. Hence, they wouldn't want to miss the chance to attend the birthday celebration.
1770
1771This celebration was greatly related to the fight for the world's fate, and if the Yinkang Clan did not participate, when the Heavenly Monarch's seat was claimed by someone else, everyone on the spot will try to get a piece of the cake and there would no longer be any space for the Yinkang Clan.
1772
1773The clan master of the Yinkang Clan, Yin Bokang, knew this for sure and so would most likely see no other option but to come to the celebration.
1774
1775Hundun Yu looked at the Fusang Tree and after a moment of consideration, he followed behind Zhong Yue, "No one is brave enough to walk too close to the tree. My ancestor wanted me to follow you so I'll go where you go."
1776
1777Seeing no reason to turn them down, Zhong Yue had no choice but to let them follow behind.
1778
1779The four exited the palace and with the perfect formation formed by the 24 monarch weapons, the world's fate was directed towards Ling Xiao Palace. The monarch might no longer act upon the Heaven Court but instead, defended it and they could walk outside freely once again.
1780
1781"The surroundings are too quiet."
1782
1783Fu Li said suddenly, "There seems to be a lot of gods eyeing us."
1784
1785Zhong Yue also noticed this; the West Heaven Court had always been the place where the Heavenly Monarch's power resided. These gods had never been friendly to them but the situation had now changed. The gods that were hostile towards them were now the Heavenly and True Deities.
1786
1787Obviously, the Heavenly Monarch's birthday celebration was a gathering of talents, and so there were a lot of the young geniuses that followed their seniors to broaden their horizons.
1788
1789Hence, the changes in the Board of Saints that may only be a trifling matter to the old gods were monumental news for the young gods.
1790
1791And to the gods that had been ranked in the Board of Saints for a long time, seeing fresh faces suddenly overtake their ranks for inexplicable reasons left them feeling rather discontent.
1792
1793Fu Li then asked around and returned, "Yinkang Clan is in the North Heaven Palace and Huaxu in the East Heaven Palace."
1794
1795The four then immediately headed toward the North Heaven Palace, passing through the alluring and beautiful Imperial Garden. Some parts in the Imperial Garden were extremely serious, the palaces were grand and sacred and some others were unique and strange.
1796
1797There were real dragons twining around the pillars and there were nine beast gods, vermillion birds and fish dragons residing in the temples, palaces, and ponds.
1798
1799With that beautiful scenery itself, if they were not in a hurry, Zhong Yue would really linger around in the Imperial Garden.
1800
1801"Brother-in-law Yin and sister Yin! Halt!"
1802
1803Zhong Yue turned around and he immediately saw a few familiar faces. They were the Getian Clan's Ge Yishu, Lilian Clan's Heavenly Lady Lilian Lingyu, Wuming Clan's Heavenly Lady Wu Qingqing.
1804
1805"Your wife is incredible! We cultivated a few ten years to become a Heavenly Deity but you are all already on the top of Board of Saints."
1806
1807Ge Yishu praised, "Shame, even until now I have yet entered the top hundred."
1808
1809Lilian Lingyu also shook her head, "Same. By the way, my cousin is looking for you now. She was the fifth in Board of Saints but now, she is seventh place and she is not happy about that."
1810
1811Meanwhile, Wu Qingqing walked towards Yin Fanxuan, placed her palm on Yin Fanxuan's stomach, blinked her eyes and whispered something to Yin Fanxuan, which had Yin Fanxuan blushed incredibly. She then glanced at Zhong Yue before shaking her head and whispering, "Not yet."
1812
1813"Hurry up then!"
1814
1815Lilian Lingyu craned her neck over and said, "If you can't, then I wouldn't mind having a child with brother-in-law. You can watch and learn from us!"
1816
1817The embarrassed Yin Fanxuan immediately shouted, "How dare you! You have to go through me first!"
1818
1819On the other hand, Wu Qingqing added, "Brother, Wu Baihe is also the same. You all need to be careful. Our Wuming Clan also has quite a number of talented ones who have married into the Heavenly Monarch's clan. But that means they will be hostile toward Xian Tian Palace. You have a lot coming for you."
1820
1821"Wu Baihe's rank?" asked Zhong Yue.
1822
1823Wu Qingqing replied, "Not in the top ten."
1824
1825Suddenly, another few gods arrived and they said, "So you're all here. It took us a while to find you!"
1826
1827Zhong Yue turned around and saw the Wuhuai Clan's Wuhuai Yu, the Dating Clan's Ting Huali, and the Zhuxiang Clan's Zhu Xianggong. They were all people in the State of Heavenly River that Zhong Yue once ran into and back then, they were just gods and they are now Heavenly Deities already.
1828
1829"Congratulations, Mister Yi."
1830
1831Xiang Zungong laughed, "Both of you are now at the top of Board of Saints. The honor is ours. Previously, those guys in Heavenly Deity Board of Saints were all so proud and arrogant, looking down on us. They merely ascended to Heavenly Deity a few years earlier but they have the face to call us the next generation."
1832
1833Zhong Yue calmly replied with a smile, "They are also talented and they do live up to their fame."
1834
1835"True."
1836
1837Wu Huaiyu nodded, "Their strength is undeniably powerful, with all of them having the potential to become a monarch. The Titing Clan is a sovereign race, with rumors saying that they managed to complete their techniques that once had no Six Paths Reincarnation. Ti Mobei is very impressive and his strength is the most mysterious one among the Heavenly Deity level."
1838
1839Ting Huali added, "The Zhongyang Clan is also a sovereign race and Yang Fengping is no weaker than Ti Mobei. However, Yang Fengpeng has barely engaged in a fight so there is not much information about him. We have not been cultivating for as long as them so it is normal that we are slightly weaker. But given enough time, we will eventually catch up and even surpass them!"
1840
1841"Mister Yi, Senior Martial Sister Yin, you're here!"
1842
1843A few more acquaintances had arrived. Lilu Clan's Lu Wang, Panhu Clan's Pan Xu, and Zhongyang Clan's Yang Buping were all people Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan had come across before in the State of Heavenly River.
1844
1845How did they know we are here?
1846
1847Lu Wang and the others quickly chimed in and they began chatting happily with the rest of the group.
1848
1849"Yi Feng, you are indeed over here!"
1850
1851Everyone frowned at Tian Xuanzi's loud voice. He was walking toward them and after glancing at Xiang Zungong and the others, he mocked, "So these garbage are here as well?"
1852
1853"Tian Xuanzi, we heard that your marriage with Xian Tian Palace's little princess has been rejected?" gritted Wu Qingqing.
1854
1855Tian Xuanzi, however, seemed unphased, even laughing instead, "I feel even better after that! She did not want to marry me and that is her loss. Pretty girl, I know that you are in love with me but there are many others that are in love with me as well. So you will have to get in the line."
1856
1857Wu Qingqing bit her lips angrily and Shui Bier smirked, "Tian Xuanzi, you…."
1858
1859"You get in the line too!" countered Tian Xuanzi.
1860
1861Shui Bier almost lost her cool, but she barely managed to refrain from charging at Tian Xuanzi and tearing him into pieces.
1862
1863Xiang Zungong then grinned, "Tian Xuanzi, I heard that you were smacked by your second ancestor for saying inappropriate things at the South Heaven Gate's entrance? It really is a shame that I wasn't not there, or I would have had you smacked even harder by your ancestor!"
1864
1865"Just by yourself?"
1866
1867Tian Xuanzi burst out laughing, "Get in the line, there are many that want to beat me up too!"
1868
1869This giant's vision scanned through the rest of them before he lamented, "I am a giant so I will be able to see further and clearer. As for you pathetic shorties, I can't even use your height to contrast how tall I am! Luckily, my path is not lonely because Mister Yi and Madam Yin Fanxuan are strong enough to be my opponent! Yi Feng, are you going to accept my challenge or your wife?"
1870
1871Lu Wang, Ting Huali, and the others were all furious and they only restrained themselves from beating Tian Xuanzi up together after trying all their best.
1872
1873Xiang Zungong, however, was different. He whipped out his two battle axes and charged towards Tian Xuanzi before being stopped by everyone.
1874
1875Seeing this, Zhong Yue felt extremely speechless and he was very curious as to how Tian Xuanzi survived for so long with that mouth.
1876
1877"Tian Xuanzi, how did you know where I was?" asked Zhong Yue.
1878
1879Tian Xuanzi stopped insulting the others and replied, "I stopped a random divine general from the Heaven Court and asked him."
1880
1881"How about you, Little Sister Qingqing?" asked Zhong Yue towards Wu Qingqing.
1882
1883"Same."
1884
1885Zhong Yue nodded. He couldn't help but praise how neatly Mo Yin handled his matters. With the Division of the Sky Surveillance's power, it was not hard to ascertain Zhong Yue's whereabouts and if these guys could find him, then so could Ti Mobei and the others.
1886
1887"What is this place?"
1888
1889Zhong Yue looked forward and a burly 4 headed and 8 armed statue entered his sight. The statue stood right at the centre of the plain field in front of him with its eight arms all stretched out.
1890
1891In its palms were golden bulletins filled with names and portraits. There were also bridges that connected and circled around the celestial being's statue, which looked like the celestial being's Daos that turned into ribbons and later carved into bridges.
1892
1893There were a lot of gods walking on the bridges, moving from one hand to another hand as they examined the golden bulletins.
1894
1895"This is where the Board of Saints is located, it's called the Martial Saint Stage."
1896
1897Tian Xuanzi said, "The Martial Saint Stage was built by the Heaven Court's officer Mo Yin. They said that the statue is the Heaven Court's Martial Saint, the Right Prime Minister King Shen Wuwei, and the golden bulletins in his hands are the many Board of Saints."
1898
1899"There are a total of eight of them? I've only heard that there were the Deity, Heavenly Deity, True Deity, Deity Overlord and Deity Emperor Board. What about the other three?"
1900
1901"The officer, Mo Yin is an ambitious one, he is also planning on creating the Creator, Imperial Emperor and Monarch Board."
1902
1903Zhong Yue tracked the unfamiliar voice to its source and saw a young god walking down from King Shen Wuwei's hand toward them. Each time he took a step, lightning would spark beneath his feet, "With the world in chaos now, the Creators, Imperial Emperors and monarchs are also struggling to survive. There will be a fierce battle soon, and Mo Yin reserved the three boards so that he could record the power of the Creators, Imperial Emperors and monarchs!"
1904
1905Zhong Yue's eyes flickered with interest and he asked, "You are not an ordinary god, may I have the honor of learning your name?"
1906
1907"Titing Clan's Ti Mobei."
1908
1909As if oblivious to the others around, Ti Mobei walked right up to Zhong Yue and stared right into his eyes, greeting, "Mister Yi, words around had it that you have the [Nine Step Plough Cracker] so I've left enough space for you. Now, let's see how strong you are!"
1910
1911Zhong Yue, however, did not look at Ti Mobei as he saw another few Heavenly Deities that were walking towards him and he replied, "What's with the hurry, who are they?"
1912
1913A handsome young man with extraordinary presence replied, "Yang Fengping of the Zhongyang Clan. Greetings, Mister Yi and Goddess Fanxuan."
1914
1915Another young god replied, "The late Heavenly Monarch's surviving clan, Tianyuan Clan's Yuan Mie."
1916
1917Then said an alluring female god, "Lilian Clan's Lilian Qinghong."
1918
1919"Jinti clan's Jin Buhuan."
1920
1921"Haoying Clan's Hao Ri."
1922
1923Zhong Yue nodded softly, looked at these Heavenly Deities and suddenly, his vision landed right onto the blank Board of Saints in King Shen Wuwei statue hand. He then calmly proposed, "Everyone here today is very talented, each with the potential of becoming a monarch in the future. I am very pleased to see all of you future monarchs. Today, now that we are all gathered here, may I suggest that we rank ourselves for the future Board of Monarchs. How about that, darling?"
1924
1925Chapter 935: Six Daos Into One
1926
1927
1928
1929As soon as he said it, everyone present felt their blood begin to boil hot.
1930
1931Creating a ranking system for the future monarchs?
1932
1933Yin Fanxuan was also moved greatly by his words but that did not stop her from saying, "Why benefit Mo Yin? Why don't we make our own board and this board, it will be called The Board of Future Monarchs!"
1934
1935"The Board of Future Monarchs?"
1936
1937On the statue of King Shen Wuwei, even more gods walked down and started gathering around, leaving only the conflicting Deity Emperors that were all eager to listen but refused to set their pride away.
1938
1939Creating a ranking board for the future monarchs?
1940
1941Just a simple sentence sparked the endless battle intent in the young gods in a second; the future did not belong to those old ones that ruled the world now but them, the young gods!
1942
1943They all possessed the talent of a monarch and combat prowess that far surpassed those in the same generous and immense power, why did they have to compete for the ranking in the Heavenly Deity Saint Board but not the Board of Future Monarchs?
1944
1945As long as they did not die suddenly, they were all bound to be successful and become the brightest stars in the future!
1946
1947An excited god then murmured, "The current monarchs, they all started from the bottom, an ordinary god to where they are now. I believe that they are not definitely stronger than us at the same level!"
1948
1949Another True Deity nodded, "If they can be so powerful now, so can we!"
1950
1951"The future does not belong to the old gods, but us!"
1952
1953"King Yi's wife is indeed impressive! We expect nothing less from a reborn innate god!"
1954
1955Xiang Zungong praised, "The Board of Future Monarchs? This name is far greater than the Board of Saints!"
1956
1957The many gods were excited, and that was when Zhong Yue coughed to attract everyone's attention and said with a smile, "I reckon everyone is overly excited. Since it is a board, then there will be ranks, the first, second and third place. Whoever is the strongest and the weakest, that will only be decided after a series of fierce battles. Now, may I suggest a small competition among ourselves. Let us have a glimpse of each other's power and the gap between ourselves. A hundred years later, we will return to the same place under my notice for another competition to exchange our knowledge and another hundred years later, another competition."
1958
1959He smiled, "As time passed and with no unexpected events that would drastically affect us, we will become monarchs in the future. By then, the word "future" in the Board of Future Monarchs will be removed naturally."
1960
1961Lu Wang's eyes lit up brighter and brighter as he said, "What a brilliant idea!"
1962
1963Everyone then sat down with their legs crossed, discussed among one another about the rules for the competition; Ti Mobei, Yang Fengping, and the others finally cast their pride away. They joined in on the discussion. Moments later, the rules were perfected and everyone agreed to them.
1964
1965This competition was an extension of the Board of Saints; there would be competitions at each level and then, the participants would be ranked based on their results.
1966
1967Ti Mobei suddenly coughed and said, "There is a very good place in the Titing Clan, it is called the Heavenly King's Altar that can suppress all levels. Whoever enters will have their strength suppressed at the Heavenly Deity level and with that, perhaps we won't have to rank ourselves through our results. In the Heavenly King's Altar, we will all compete in the Heavenly Deity level."
1968
1969A god then frowned, "Then how about the gods in the Deity level? They are unable to join the competition."
1970
1971Ti Mobei then replied with a smile, "They are temporary excluded. It will not be a problem for them to become a Heavenly Deity and you can all return after becoming one."
1972
1973His reply immediately had the many gods present nodded.
1974
1975Zhong Yue then asked, "Mobei, can we actually borrow the place?"
1976
1977Ti Mobei laughed and said generously, "Of course! I will inform the elders of my clan and have them send the Heavenly King's Altar here!"
1978
1979Happily, Zhong Yue said as he reached his hand out, "Be sure to wait for my notification hundred years later from now on!"
1980
1981The many different level gods immediately placed their hands on top of Zhong Yue's and they all laughed, "We'll be seeing you a hundred years later!"
1982
1983Tian Xuanzi moved his brows around and laughed, "The world is all messed up right now, you must all stay alive until the next competition!"
1984
1985Without even a second, everyone shouted right at him and they were about to throw fists onto him.
1986
1987However, before they could even move their fist, Hundun Yu shouted all of a sudden, "Wait! Let me record this moment!"
1988
1989With that said, he immediately raised the mirror gifted to him by the Hundun Clan's monarch, had it floated in mid-air before he rushed to the Martial Saint Stage, joined the others and shouted, "Everyone, look at the mirror and smile!"
1990
1991Hearing this, Xiang Zungong, Lu Wang and the others who were pressing Tian Xuanzi onto the ground, Wu Qing Qing who secretly gave Tian Xuanzi a kick, Zhong Yue, Yin Fanxuan and the others who were talking with one another, they immediately looked towards the mirror; with a flash, this scene was recorded by the mirror.
1992
1993The excited Hundun Yu immediately rushed towards the mirror, keeping it away and hurled out a brush. After a quick moment of thought, he wrote down a line onto the image recorded by the mirror that read, "The human created the Board of Future Monarch, ranked all gods in it."
1994
1995Meanwhile, everyone walked up to him and upon seeing his words, they all shouted, "How can you be so careless! You should put down our names!"
1996
1997Hundun Yu scratched his head and shouted, "Alright alright! One by one, I will list down your names!"
1998
1999"I look so ugly! I suggest changing another picture!"
2000
2001Tian Xuanzi, on the other hand, shouted, "Wu Qingqing kicked my butt, Xiang Zungong that brat was on top of me and if I became the Heavenly Monarch, this recorded image will only bring shame to me!"
2002
2003His words, however, were ignored as everyone pretended to hear nothing. They all told Hundun Yu their names, clans, which Hundun Yu recorded down carefully; there were thousands of gods recorded in the image and it took him quite some time to list down everyone's name.
2004
2005With that, one of the largest alliances began to show its fang.
2006
2007After having their fun, Ti Mobei asked with a smile, "Mister Yi, Goddess Fanxuan and you ranked first place in the Heavenly Deity Board of Saint so who among the two of you will fight with me? Goddess Fanxuan or you, Mister Yi?"
2008
2009"Which are you more proficient in? Weapons or spells??"
2010
2011Various thoughts flickered in Ti Mobei's eyes and he answered, "We Titing Clan are known for our expertise in weapon handling. I'd say I'm better with weapons, how about you?"
2012
2013"Spells."
2014
2015With that said, Zhong Yue flew right ot the top of King Shen Wuwei's statue and said, "Please!"
2016
2017Ti Mobei flew up, landed on the opposite of Zhong Yue and with a simple flicker in his mind, the Yuan Shen secret realms in his body were all opened but not before torrents formed of divine weapons flew out. The divine weapons torrents charged around swiftly and in just a blink of an eye, Ti Mobei turned the surrounding into a field filled with countless weapons!
2018
2019The endless divine weapons first turned the surrounding to a field of weapons and alter the field into an infinitely close to perfect divine weapon Secular World!
2020
2021These weapons possessed different functionally and now, they had formed a near-perfect Secular World which floated right behind his head and the combined energy of the divine weapons was in his command.
2022
2023As the countless divine weapons crossed each other, they formed a massive weapon force field, which later on evolved into a forged Divine Weapon Secular World!
2024
2025These weapons that had different effects combined into a Divine Weapon Secular World, hung right behind Ti Mobei and they gathered all the energy together.
2026
2027Zhong Yue's expression changed; he was not the only one that had a glimpse into the secrets of the Creator level at the Heavenly Deity level and Ti Mobei was clearly one of those that managed to peek it!
2028
2029He sensed terrifying energy hidden right within Ti Mobei's Divine Weapon Secular World, which gave off a vibe similar to a monarch weapon. It was probably a replica of the Titing Clan's monarch weapon and was made into the forged Divine Weapon Secular World's core by Ti Mobei!
2030
2031The Titing Clan was one of the sovereign races that cultivated weapons and their monarch back in the days was titled as the Weapon Sovereign. Apart from that, during the God Order Era, they too, also gave birth to a monarch that later on completed Weapon Sovereign's heritage with the Six Paths.
2032
2033Hence, that monarch weapon in Titing Clan could be said that it was forged by two monarchs from different eras, bestowed with incredible power that even its replica was not to be underestimated!
2034
2035Suddenly, Ti Mobei's forged Divine Weapon Secular World rumbled, a weapon flew right out from the Secular World and it was a divine spear. With the spear in hand, Ti Mobei shadowed Zhong Yue with an overwhelming spear stabs and stabbed towards Zhong Yue!
2036
2037With a barrage of attacks, Ti Mobei managed to condense the power of the weapons within the Divine Weapon Secular World in the spear stabs, unleashing terrifying power and displayed his might as the first in the Board of Saint!
2038
2039Suddenly, the overwhelming spear stabs were all halted and it became hard for them to move around.
2040
2041Zhong Yue had opened his Innate Secular World, had the almost halted spear attacks collided with the Secular World and created sparks as they collided.
2042
2043Suddenly, two arms grew out on Ti Mobei, a hammer flew out from the Divine Weapon Secular World and he slammed the hammer right onto the Innate Secular World.
2044
2045At the same time, his Secular World also charged into the Innate Secular World, creating a loud noise and a terrifying impact that crushed the statue's head where they were standing on.
2046
2047The two Secular Worlds collided, Zhong Yue stuttered for a second and he reached out his fingers, launching an innate Dao with innumerous totem patterns flying around before turning them into a divine saber that slashed towards Ti Mobei.
2048
2049Right away, Ti Mobei grew out another pair of arms, drew out a weapon that slammed onto Zhong Yue's saber before he laughed, "Why are you not using the
2050
2051[Nine Steps Plough Cracker], Mister Yi?"
2052
2053Hong long—
2054
2055The statue's head exploded under the shockwaves, the debris flew everywhere and the duo moved quickly around the statue.
2056
2057Zhong Yue launched another innate Dao, turned it into a second innate divine saber and as they both landed on the statue's palm, saber flashed across the area and the massive fingers fell onto the ground.
2058
2059Then, Ti Mobei shockingly saw a third, fourth and when he finally saw a fifth divine saber appearing, he could no longer hold himself back; he revealed the true form of his Divine Weapon Secular World, drew out the replica of the Titing Clan's monarch weapon, which came in the form of a monarch sword with immense power!
2060
2061Though it was just a replica, its power bore a certain level of the monarch sword's might. With just a swing, the Six Paths Reincarnation emerged and circled around the monarch sword replica!
2062
2063Guards raised and wary of the monarch sword replica, Zhong Yue quickly revealed the sixth innate Dao, aligned the six divine sabers and merged them into one single divine saber before charging towards the monarch sword replica!
2064
2065Ti Mobei burst out laughing, slammed the monarch sword replica with the saber and the massive Six Paths Reincarnation torn down the statue, dropping it to both sides in half.
2066
2067"Finally, Mister Yi's [Nine Steps Plough Cracker]...."
2068
2069Ti Mobei's monarch sword replica shattered, a cut appeared on his forehead and the Divine Weapon Secular World behind him had a massive slash. With the six divine sabers merged into one, Zhong Yue had merged the Six Paths into one and decimated the Divine Weapon Secular World with his divine saber.
2070
2071"The strongest Heavenly Deity is indeed a fit title." praised Ti Mobei as he touched his forehead
2072
2073Meanwhile, Zhong Yue dispersed the divine saber, causing it to split into six sabers before turning into the six innate Daos then returned back to the light wheels behind his head while he said, "Thank you. I merely managed to achieve Six Paths As One and if Brother Mobei achieved this, I will be no match for you."
2074
2075Chapter 936: Future Demon Monarch
2076
2077
2078
2079The spectators' mind went blank in an instant; Ti Mobei was still standing his ground against Zhong Yue, but after drawing out the Titing Clan monarch weapon replica, he was met with a swift defeat before Zhong Yue's Six Daos As One.
2080
2081A confused Xiang Zungong then asked "Six Daos As One? What kind of technique is this?"
2082
2083On the other hand, with a serious tone, Tian Xuanzi said, "It's a type of technique that merges the six Daos into one, allowing him to unleash the Six Paths Reincarnation's power with a simple move in his mind. This is the rawest form of a monarch level weapon, this is beyond your understanding."
2084
2085His words immediately angered Xiang Zungong who then shouted, "So you are telling me that you know? Then how are you still ranked 32nd on the board?"
2086
2087Tian Xuanzi smirked, "I may not achieve that yet but I definitely know more than you! The easiest way to achieve this is to become an innate race like Huaxu and Leizhe Celestial Race of the sovereign races or Hundun Clan, Shuilong Clan and the other races in the monarch races. The barrier to achieving this is much lower for them. For example, the Leizhe Celestial Race cultivates six types of innate lightning Daos. Hence, their Six Paths Reincarnations are all made of pure lightning, easing them to merge the six Daos into one."
2088
2089Everyone's eyes lit up; though Tian Xuanzi seemed like a very rude person, it still didn't change the fact that as someone hailing from a monarch race, his knowledge was far beyond most.
2090
2091Lilian Qinghong immediately asked, "But through my observation, Mister Yi's six Daos are all different, how did he manage to pull it off?"
2092
2093"Idiot!"
2094
2095Tian Xuanzi did not feign politeness and scolded her, "The same type of Daos merely make things easier but if you mastered the Six Paths Reincarnation, you can perform Six Daos As One even with different Daos! This is the rawest form of monarch weapons! In the era where six Daos were non-existent, Five Daos As One was already sufficient to create monarch weapons' rawest state! Now, you would need six Daos to do it, which is also why the monarch weapons in this era are stronger than those from the Earth Order Era."
2096
2097Upon being scolded, Lilian Qinghong's expression turned dark, "Tian Xuanzi, if I'm not wrong, you have a ranking lower than mine in the Board of Saints?"
2098
2099"So what? You and your sister cousin are still illiterate in my eyes!"
2100
2101Tian Xuanzi, however, did not give a damn, "In my eyes are only Yi Feng and his wife. But even so, I still won't bring myself to bow before them!"
2102
2103At this point, Lilian Qinghong finally realized that talking to this fool would only bring herself down to his level, so she decided to simply ignore him.
2104
2105"The Heavenly Deity level includes countless Daos, it is impossible for someone to be undefeatable!"
2106
2107Zhong Yang Clan's Yang Fengping walked out and looked at Zhong Yue, "Mister Yi, you are a master strategist. But to achieve this, you have to pour in a great deal of effort in this field, which will inevitably decrease your time in refining your techniques and skills. As we speak, I've mastered six types of arts that are capable of allowing me to compete with almost anyone. Up until now, I've only used one. I wonder how many of my arts you will force me to use against you."
2108
2109"Please, it will be my pleasure, Brother Fengping," Zhong Yue said calmly.
2110
2111Ti Mobei's expression was very serious and he said softly, "Yang Fengping is going to use all his arts now. It seems like he is serious now."
2112
2113At the same time, Lilian Qinghong also had up tensed expression on her face as she agreed with Ti Mobei, "The six monarch level arts of Zhongyang Clan came from the five Heavenly Monarchs in the Earth Order Era and another monarch level in the God Order Era. Yang Fengping is also the only one that acquired the six monarch weapons, capable of absorbing the knowledge within them. No one had ever seen him using all six types of arts. Never would I have thought I'd be able to witness it here today."
2114
2115A curious Hundun Yu asked, "Ti Mobei, aren't you rank one on the Saint Board? Have you not witnessed Yang Fengping's six monarch level arts?"
2116
2117Shaking his head, Ti Mobei said, "I am merely ranked higher than him because of my results. His was considerably lower, hence, he was ranked the second place. But when it comes to actual combat prowess...."
2118
2119Ti Mobei remained silent after shaking his head.
2120
2121Tian Xuanzi smiled, "Doesn't matter, Yang Fengping won't end anywhere better than you."
2122
2123"Why?" asked the surprised Ti Mobei right away."
2124
2125"No matter how strong Yang Fengping's six arts are, they are all part of his ancestors' heritage, things that he learned from someone else. Unlike him, Mister Yi had already managed to execute Six Daos As One, which is able to destroy all forms with a form, suppressing all techniques with one technique and defeating all arts with one art."
2126
2127Tian Xuanzi explained, "Thus, even if Yang Fengping learned and mastered a million arts, as long as he did not achieve Six Daos As One, it doesn't matter."
2128
2129Before Tian Xuanzi's voice could even fade away, Yang Fengping had already engaged Zhong Yue; instantly, the arts he learned from the monarch level weapons burst, releasing power that shook even the heaven and earth!
2130
2131From the Zhongyang Clan rose five Heavenly Monarchs and there was a monarch level existence in the God Order Era, making this battle even more shocking than the one between Ti Mobei and Zhong Yue; the monarch weapons revealed themselves and rumbled.
2132
2133However, just as the monarch weapons' projections power was on the peak, they were all sliced part by the saber, their forms crumbled in a second and Yang Fengping was pushed backwards while the light wheels behind his head all shattered; Zhong Yue's six saber attacks merged, his six Daos turned into one, morphing into a divine saber and cut Yang Fengping's six Yuan Shen secret realms apart!
2134
2135Yang Fengping bled, forcing himself to halt the crumblings of his Yuan Shen secret realms. He was afraid of saying a word for it might cause his Yuan Shen secret realms to tear apart again.
2136
2137Everyone's heart thumped as they never expected the Six Daos As One that formed the basic form of the monarch weapon was so strong that even the monarch weapon projection was powerless before it!
2138
2139Tianyuan Clan's Yuan Mie fell into silence for a second and he decided not to compete with Zhong Yue, handing the number one Heavenly Deity title to Zhong Yue.
2140
2141Tian Xuanzi took a look at Yin Fanxuan, examined her with raging battle intent as he laughed, "Senior Martial Sister Yin, how about a competition?"
2142
2143Yin Fanxuan turned him down without hesitation and said, "Tian Xuanzi, I've fought you and I've studied you. Everything about you, your techniques and your future are all crystal clear in my eyes. Fighting with me again and you will experience a swift defeat. Previously, I needed a thousand strikes to defeat you and now, I merely require fewer than ten strikes."
2144
2145TIan Xuanzi widened his eyes, stared at her angrily and smiled after a moment of silence, "I am feeling that brother-in-law Yin is weaker, challenging him might be safer!"
2146
2147He then leaped into the air and charged towards Zhong Yue, "Yi Feng, accept my challenge!"
2148
2149Yin Fanxuan hesitated and she murmured after failing to stop Tian Xuanzi, "But he needed less than three attacks to defeat you…"
2150
2151Lilina Qinghong exclaimed, "Your husband is stronger than you?"
2152
2153"No."
2154
2155Yin Fanxuan shook, "He is powerful in burst attacks but slightly inferior to me in terms of mastery. If I were to compete with him, I will have to circle around him and look for an opening. But even so, I was only able to stand on equal ground against him. I can't guarantee a win. Tian Xuanzi is known for his courage and power but he will only be defeated quickly before even stronger power."
2156
2157The gods around immediately noted her words and at this exact moment, with a huge explosion, Tian Xuanzi was knocked flying away while coughing out a lot of blood.
2158
2159Those around were incredibly shocked as Tian Xuanzi was indeed defeated in less than three strikes!
2160
2161Yin Fanxuan then hesitated, "My husband has yet to use his full strength or there wouldn't be anyone that could last more than three strikes."
2162
2163Ti Mobei lost his words for a while and he shouted, "Mister Yi is still holding back?"
2164
2165"Is this even possible?" exclaimed Yang Fengping who had lost his cool at this moment.
2166
2167After seeing Zhong Yue pay no attention to them, Yin Fanxuan said softly, "In the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, with only an array and a saber, he once slew more than ten race sovereigns. They were all peak Creators, and with only one strike, they were all decapitated along with their Yuan Shen. Then, my husband fought against five Imperial Emperors on equal ground. Whatever he displayed just now was just a part of his strength, merely 80 percent. His cultivation speed is much slower than mine and if he cultivated at the same rate as me…."
2168
2169She shook, "Some times, I really can't tell anything about him…."
2170
2171On the Martial Saint Stage, Deity level gods were battling each other again, competing with each other fiercely before the True Deities got up. Hundun Yu also fought on the Martial Saint Stage but this time, he no longer succeeded in keeping his title as the strongest True Deity.
2172
2173With the ability to perform the Six Paths As One, Hundun Yu's opponent was overwhelming and Hundun Yu simply had no way of winning against him.
2174
2175Then there was the Deity Overlords and they also engaged in friendly competition.
2176
2177"Mister Yi has achieved the Six Paths As One and I also achieved the same thing. I look forward to competing with you on the same level in the future," said the demon race's True Deity who defeated Hundun Yu politely after greeting Zhong Yue.
2178
2179Zhong Yue greeted him back and said humbly, "The Titing Clan's Heavenly Deity Altar will arrive in no time and by then, let us have a friendly match!"
2180
2181"The battle between Mister Yi and I will not take place on the Heavenly Deity Altar but once we are on the same level!
2182
2183The demon god shook his head before he left while the stunned Zhong Yue chased after him and asked, "Brother, your name?"
2184
2185"Yang Guanyuan of the Yanghou Clan, one of six demon monarch races from ancient universe!"
2186
2187The demon god stopped his footsteps, bowed at everyone and said, "Greetings, every senior martial brothers and sisters from Zi Wei Galaxy! May we cross paths soon!"
2188
2189Zhong Yue watched as this demon god vanished from sight, and this was when a ruckus emerged. The soldiers and generals in the Heaven court received word that demon gods from the ancient universe had snuck into the Heaven Court and that they were here to arrest them.
2190
2191There are actually such young magnates in the ancient universe….
2192
2193Zhong Yue recollected his and walked toward everyone. Pan Xu smiled, "Mister Yi, do you mind sharing with us how you achieved the Six Paths As One?"
2194
2195"I don't see why not!"
2196
2197Zhong Yue burst out laughing before taking a seat on the ground with his legs crossed. "Dear senior and junior martial brothers, I am still new to this and I dare not hide my knowledge. Let us all share our ideas."
2198
2199Ti Mobei was amazed by this generosity and he said, "If King Yi is so generous, then I will not hide my knowledge from everyone either. I shall share the weapon control technique of our Titing Clan!"
2200
2201Yang Fengping laughed, "We Zhongyang Clan possessed a lot of monarch weapons, each with their own uniqueness and I shall share this with everyone."
2202
2203They sat on the ground, becoming lost in their discourse. The thousand gods remained like this for about ten days; throughout the sharing session, they've all benefited greatly from each other's ideas.
2204
2205Zhong Yue shared everything he understood about the Six Paths As One while the others shared their understandings and the situation was extremely lively.
2206
2207Meanwhile, another thought entered Yin Fanxuan's mind.
2208
2209Titing Clan's weapon controlling technique might just be able to counter the Divine Dragon Bell.
