Rise of Humanity

  But how did the rumor reachto the oversea demon race?

  He was puzzled, How did the oversea demon land receive word faster than the Great Wilderness? Sha Qishan listed both Zhong Yue and Long Yue in his wanted list, clearly he knows that we are the same person; is Feng Wuji also in the demon land? What an expert of the Feng Clan, the whole three generations of the Feng Clan are really incredible! There is no doubt, Feng Wuji must have someone in the demon land, but is it Xiao Mang experts, or did he have another demon incarnation?

  Seems like I will have to conduct the duel between the two Yue’s as soon as possible.

  Zhong Yue nodded to himself. Feng Wuji knew of my secret, but he wouldn’t know that I’ve cultivated my Long Yue incarnation. Only the duel of the two Yue’s will eradicate all of the suspicions the world has about the rumor! Hmph, this duel between Zhong Yue and Long Yue will be interesting enough, perhaps earth-shaking news to the world?

  For now, his Long Yue incarnation was in Gu Xia City, the wounded Gu Hongzi had hid himself somewhere in the world and the whole of Gu Xia City was in a state of disorder and chaos due to their missing city lord. As of now, the strongest existence in the city was Long Yue, and he had to stay behind to reorder and reorganize the monster factions in Gu Xia City.

  ------

  Long Yue was sitting in the palace of the lord’s manor while Gu Hongzi’s subordinates were sitting below him. Suddenly, Long Yue thought of something, and summoned a monster Qi Practitioner. He wrote a letter and ordered, “Send it to Swords Gate and pass it to the Zhong Shan Clan member Zhong Yue, this is an invitation to a duel against me! Half a year later, I will await his arrival in the Fiery Capital of South Barren! If, of course, he is daring enough to take up my challenge!”

  The Gu Xia City Qi Practitioners were shocked, the monster Qi Practitioner he summoned meticulously kept the letter and rushed toward the Great Wilderness immediately.

  Long Yue laughed and said, “Brothers, spread the word, the world shall know of this duel and they will cheer for me!”

  The Qi Practitioners quickly stood up and bowed, they said, “Mister Long is the greatest and strongest hero, the Zhong Shan Clan member will never be of your match!”

  Long Yue laughed out loud, he swung the Fang Blade and pointing it toward the sky, he said, “When he kneels before me and my blade is placed on his head, I dare the world to mention the Twin Yue’s again!”

  ------

  Weeks passed, and the letter arrived at Swords Gate; Zhong Yue was not in and Jun Sixie received the letter in his place. She was shocked when she saw the challenge letter ,and quickly summoned Shui Zian over. The two looked carefully at the letter and were both bewildered.

  “This little kid of the Zhong Shan Clan, what is he trying to do? Is he too bored or whatever? Trying to have some fun challenging himself to a duel?”

  Shui Zian mumbled puzzlingly, “Is this some sort of tactic to erase the rumor spreading in the monster race? I’ve heard of a rumor lately, quite a popular one in the East Barren, it suggests that Zhong Yue and Long Yue are the same person. Could it be that he has also heard of it and is trying to drag out half a year’s time just to ease the rumor?”

  Jun Sixie furrowed her brows and said, “But that’s not going to help much, what will he do when half a year’s time has passed?”

  The two exchanged looks and saw the same question in their eyes.

  Shui Zian said worryingly, “This brat is now in the monster race Gu Xia City, what should we do now? Should we reply to the letter and accept the challenge, or wait for him to come back?”

  Jun Sixie mulled things over and grit her teeth. She said, “Reply to the letter, Zhong Yue of the Zhong Shan Clan will accept the duel. Half a year from now, Long Yue and Zhong Yue will duel in South Barren Fiery Capital!”

  ------

  The duel Long Yue proposed in order to prove the rumor wrong and that Zhong Yue had accepted the proposed duel spread across the East Barren. The giants of the monster race were all shocked and surprised.

  The new high priest of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, Feng Wuji, also received the news. He was shocked, and a few moments later, he said with a laugh, “Interesting…”

  Not long later, Ao Fenglou of the dragon race also received the news, a weird expression climbed onto his face as he mumbled, “You are challenging yourself to a duel…”

  On the other side of the Eastern Sea, the land of demons, Tian Mo Concubine was walking alongside h a brawny man, searching for Yanluo Mo’s whereabouts. The man was heavily built, strong and muscular with a thick beard, his tower-like body was surrounded with demonic Qi and when looked at from far, his appearance alone could shudder the hearts of the weak ...this was no doubt Zhong Yue’s new appearance.

  Sha Qishan was posting his wanted portraits everywhere, with a high enough price that even the Heavenly Dharma Qi Practitioners would hunt for him. Hence, Zhong Yue could only change his image into another man.

  Thankfully he had cultivated his Immortal Body to a certain stage, and changing his appearances from the inner bones to the outer hairs wasn’t a big deal.

  I’m now in the demon land, I know nothing about this place and it’s best I remain a low-profile demon,Zhong Yue thought to himself.

  “The Demon Saint has fully devoured Yanluo Mo’s soul and possessed his body. There is no news of him anywhere now, he must be hiding in closed door training and he won’t come out until he has full control over Yanluo Mo’s body.”

  Tian Mo Concubine and Zhong Yue was traveling in the boat, she smiled and continued speaking, “That is the Fiend Capital, there are many knowledgeable people there and the saint clans’ informants are everywhere, we can probably find news about Demon Saint. Demon Saint is a very selfish man, he can’t stand people staring at his women and would take their eyes out if they did; speak even a word to his women, and he would remove their tongues. These days, you and I have traveled together like a couple. I don’t believe he can withstand this!”

  The boat flew into the Fiend Capital. Tian Mo Concubine swung her sleeves and stashed it away. The two of them stood in mid-air and Zhong Yue laughed out loud, he reached his hand and held onto Tian Mo Concubine’s slim waist, his deep voice covered the whole city as he said, “I’m Mister Mo Luo and I’ve snatched over Demon Saint’s Tian Mo Concubine, I wonder if Demon Saint likes to have his woman in other men’s hands? Demon Saint, where are you?! Get your ass over here!”

  Tian Mo Concubine’s beautiful countenance blushed, and she put her head on his chest; Zhong Yue stepped on the demonic clouds and strode into the Fiend Capital. These few days, they did the same to every city they had visited, as they were trying to lure Demon Saint out from his hiding.

  Suddenly, a voice smirking frigidly could be heard, “Shameless adulterous couple…”

  Zhong Yue looked over and saw a crowd of demon ladies walking toward them. They were beautifully dressed and the voice came from one of them, the most coquettish among all of them. She was incredibly beautiful, dressed in an exquisitely sewn blouse, and held a marvelous air, only a fine line less than Tian Mo Concubine.

  Tian Mo Concubine’s eyes brightened up, she whispered softly, “She is another imperial concubine of Demon Saint, Ji Xiang Concubine of the Ji Xiang Saint Clan. The others are the court ladies. If the Ji Xiang Concubine appeared, then it means that Demon Saint knows about us already.”

  Zhong Yue was puzzled, he asked, “Other than you, there are still other imperial concubines?”

  “After Demon Saint plotted his revival, the eight saint clans each selected an imperial concubine. And in addition to the eight imperial concubines, there is also a demon empress, who has a higher status and is also stronger than me, while the numbers of court ladies selected are countless.”

  Zhong Yue was very envious of this, he suddenly laughed and said, “Ji Xiang Concubine, quickly tell your Demon Saint to come out. Tell him, Mister Mo Luo has coupled with his Tian Mo Concubine. If he is daring enough, tell him to c
ome out and fight me!”

  Tian Mo Concubine was furious and embarrassed at the same time, she furtively placed her fingers on the soft meat of his waist and pinched it heavily.

  Chapter 333: Invincible |

  “Who is this? Who gave him such bravery? How dare he sleep with Tian Mo Concubine!”

  As soon as Zhong Yue’s voice was heard, the entire Fiend Capital was in shock. Each and every demon Qi Practitioner in the capital immediately looked up into the air where Zhong Yue was and quickly expressed their confusion, shock, and questions with each other.

  The Desolation City was a fortress that was built at the border of the demon territory to fend off the dragons. Thus, it was not as rich as the other cities, while the Fiend Capital was one of the prosperous cities among the demons. The significance of the Fiend Capital among the demons was equivalent to the saint ground of the celestial races, and it was located at the center of the Eighth Barren, which was why there were so many Qi Practitioners gathered here.

  “That is Mister Mo Luo, they said that he came from the Mo Luo Clan, but I have no idea about his specific details,” said a Qi Practitioner that had heard of Zhong Yue.

  “He appeared from nowhere only recently, gained quite a bit of fame, and when he encountered Tian Mo Concubine at the Desolation City, he captured her and slept with her.”

  “Slept?” A demon Qi Practitioner listening to the speaker widened his eight eyes and shouted, “For real?”

  “With such a beauty so gorgeous, elegant and alluring like Tian Mo Concubine, how could he hold himself back?” The Qi Practitioner then said, “Look at the size of the Mister Mo Luo and the petite Tian Mo Concubine, how could she withstand the ruthless Mister Mo Luo?”

  “Indeed!”

  “But he is too arrogant! After sleeping with Tian Mo Concubine, he took her with him and passed a few large cities saying that he wanted to meet the Demon Saint to compete with him. If I were him, I would have run away after sleeping with Tian Mo Concubine long ago so that Demon Saint could not find me at all…”

  It was a normal phenomenon that the younger generations who sought fame and reputation would challenge the older generation, and it was very common to have more than ten challenges a day.

  Therefore, an unspoken rule was created; if the younger generations challenged each other, the older generations could not interfere, as all of this was the result of the wild and ruthless culture of the demons. However, compared to the celestial races, the demons were much better.

  However, it was kinda irrational and unwise for a new person to challenge a figure like the Demon Saint.

  The Demon Saint was once an ancestor demon, and regardless of how strong he was in the previous life, the body he possessed for his revival was incredibly strong as well. This body belonged to Yanluo Muo, a young demon Qi Practitioner that was so talented and strong that he was almost undefeatable among the younger generation of demons!

  This Yanluo Muo was the disciple of the Demon Saint, a Qi Practitioner that was personally taught by the demonic spirit of the Demon Saint. As soon as Yanluo Muo became a Qi Practitioner, he showed his great talent by defeating all of the Spirit Nurture level demon Qi Practitioners, and he was acknowledged as the strongest Spirit Nurture level demon Qi Practitioner among the demons.

  After entering the Rebirth level, Yanluo Muo had yet to experience any defeat. During the Awakening and Atman Body level, he still managed to outperform others and thrive as the strongest one among those in his age!

  Then, not long ago, he entered the Inner Core level, and he let out words that he wanted to challenge all of the Inner Core level demon Qi Practitioners. When he defeated them all, he would head towards the East Barren and the other Barrens to challenge those on the same level.

  However, before he could even challenge anyone, Yanluo Muo was possessed by the Demon Saint during his prayers to his master.

  Based on the achievements of Yanluo Muo, it was not an exaggeration that Tian Mo Concubine said that he was a Qi Practitioner on par with Zhong Yue.

  For someone like that to be possessed easily by the Demon Saint, it was not hard to imagine the result of challenging the Demon Saint.

  Someone then asked, “Mo Luo Clan? What is this race? Why have I not heard of it?”

  Everyone around them said with a shake of their head, “Probably some tiny clan.”

  Other than the eight saint clans, there were also some other demon clans that were not as strong as the eight saint clans. They also had quite a few strong individuals, but since his history was made up by Zhong Yue, it was natural that no one had ever heard of the Mo Luo Clan.

  “How dare he!”

  Ji Xiang Concubine’s pretty face changed rapidly as she scolded Tiam Mo Concubine, “How dare you challenge someone as great as the Demon Saint! Kneel down and await your death!”

  The lady then shouted, “Tian Mo Concubine, you were chosen by the Demon Saint to be his concubine, yet you did not appreciate the honor bestowed upon you! How dare you have an affair with this garbage! Today, I shall execute you on behalf of the Demon Saint!”

  Obviously, she did not have a good relationship with Tian Mo Concubine and after being “captured and forcefully slept” by Zhong Yue, immediately accused her of having an affair with Zhong Yue, as she wanted to kill Tian Mo Concubine.

  “Darling, is she unhappy with you?” asked Zhong Yue softly.

  Tian Mo Concubine laughed and replied softly, “I was the head among the eight concubines, which placed her beneath me, so this little slut has always sought to take my place.”

  Zhong Yue then asked again, “So how is her strength compared to yours?”

  “Not much of a difference. Do not underestimate her, she may have a lower ranking than me, but she is not someone to be mess with. Besides, the other court ladies are also very strong, as they are only slightly weaker than her.”

  There were about twenty court ladies that had accompanied Ji Xiang Concubine, and most of them were Inner Core level Qi Practitioners. As a result, Zhong Yue was very envious of the Demon Saint.

  These court ladies themselves could form a very strong power, and I really envy how Demon Saint could select so many talented and pretty ladies for himself.

  However, Zhong Yue was very skeptical when Tian Mo Concubine said that Ji Xiang Concubine was on par with her. Tian Mo Concubine always hid her true strength, but Zhong Yue still managed to catch a glimpse of her power. This happened when she executed the demon ladies around Madame Hua Zhen; unlike the strength she displayed usually, during the execution, her attacks were deadly, fast, accurate, and strong.

  A court lady then smirked and said, “Kneel down!”

  “Let me teach Ji Xiang Concubine a lesson…” Tian Mo Concubine asked with a lilting voice.

  “There’s no need for that!”

  Zhong Yue wrapped his arm around the soft waist of Tian Mo Concubine. When he pressed his hand down, a huge river flowed across the Fiend Capital, let out a creaking, thunderous roar, and the water of the river surged into the skies. Freezing power gushed out from Zhong Yue’s fingers into the water, froze the river, and formed an ice throne atop many ice pillars supporting it.

  He then sat down on the throne, had Tian Mo Concubine sit on his lap, and reached out his hands towards Ji Xiang Concubine as he laughed arrogantly, “The concubines of Demon Saint… Never thought I would come across another concubine after sleeping with one, and there are even so many court ladies! Good! Since he dares not show himself and instead sent his concubines, I will happily accept his offer and sleep with all of them!”

  Ji Xiang Concubine shouted and immediately retaliated, she swung her sleeves and struck towards the hands of Zhong Yue.

  With a laugh, Zhong Yue suddenly moved, he flung Tian Mo Concubine up into the air and dashed towards Ji Xiang Concubine.

  Hong long——-

  As he plunged towards Ji Xiang Concubine and struck into the ranks of the court ladies, Zhong Yue’s body enlarged and turned into
a demonic god’s demon that was twenty-eight feet tall with nine demonic gods’ apparitions behind him! His body was covered in jet black dragon scales, and appeared extremely dangerous, fierce, and ruthless!

  Twenty-eight foot Yuan Shen! Avatar?

  Tian Mo Concubine had a shock when she saw the Atman Body As One displayed by Zhong Yue while falling back down.

  The Yuan Shens of Inner Core level Qi Practitioners were still twenty feet tall, and there was no way for them to exceed this limit. Only those on the Heavenly Dharma level could do so.

  But Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen had.

  He exceeded the limit and after performing the Atman Body As One, his demonic god body was twenty-eight feet tall, while his Yuan Shen was also twenty-eight feet tall!

  It was said that brute strength could easily overwhelm techniques, the stronger the body one possessed, the stronger the power one contained. Thus, with the twenty-eight foot tall Yuan Shen Zhong Yue possessed, he could easily defeat those at the Inner Core level with overwhelming strength!

  But Tian Mo Concubine also realized that Zhong Yue did not expose the true strength of his Yuan Shen completely, he merely displayed about half of it, preventing everyone from seeing the true form of his Yuan Shen.

  Ji Xiang Concubine’s sleeves wrapped around Zhong Yue’s arm and started squeezing. In an instant, her sleeves completely covered his arms. When she wanted to rip Zhong Yue’s arm off with her sleeves, his arm suddenly enlarged, the muscles moving rapidly as if there were Jiao Dragons slithering under the skin as the veins popped out!

  In the blink of an eye, the sleeves of Ji Xiang Concubine were torn to pieces, and Zhong Yue charged towards her without stopping for even a moment! He shrouded the court ladies and Ji Xiang Concubine in the shadow of his huge body while the nine apparitions of the demonic gods showed their fangs, waved their claws, and he overwhelmed the Fiend Capital with his horrifying aura!

  Ji Xiang Concubine was shocked, and a demonic inner core flew out from her mouth while a lute surging with demonic Qi flew out from her five rapidly spinning wheels.
