All of this happened quickly, and Zhong Yue suddenly seemed undefeatable.
Everyone was originally prepared to attack at anytime, but with the sudden change in Zhong Yue, who would still dare to attack him recklessly?
Just by standing there, no matter from which direction they looked, whether it be from the front, back, or sides, they clearly felt that there was no holes in Zhong Yue’s defense. They couldn’t figure out a way to attack Zhong Yue without risking being killed!
So… I’ve already become this strong….
The realization came to Zhong Yue, and as he looked at the sky, he softly murmured, “So I am already this strong….”
Without showing any flaw in his stance, the people did not dare to attack as they feared Zhong Yue’s retaliation!
The very first person who attacked Zhong Yue would definitely not walk away unscathed, and this thought that gnawed at everyone’s mind acted as a deterrent that prevented anyone stepping forward at all!
“He is injured,” Shang Qing said suddenly, “When he fought with Qi Lianfeng, his inner core was damaged by Qi Lianfeng. There should be countless of cracks on his inner core.”
Zhong Yue then turned around quickly, looked at Shang Qing and said, “Brother Shang Qing, I am indeed injured, so why don’t you come try me?”
Immediately, Shang Qing laughed awkwardly and kept silent after that.
Chi Qing then suddenly said, “He is the one that got on land with Chi Xue first so they will definitely have quite a few peaches with them, it’s just that we do not know how many they have. Maybe one, probably a few or even more than that!”
Immediately, everyone’s eyes turned red as the situation was on the verge of turning sour for Zhong Yue and Chi Xue quickly.
Shang Qing then laughed and said, “All of us only obtained a total of four peaches, and just for these four peaches, we have to battle each other to the death. But these two... god knows how many peaches they’ve acquired for themselves, isn’t this a little bit unfair for us?”
Right away, Chi Xue walked toward Zhong Yue with a very serious expression, but she was stopped by Fu Tixiang, who laughed and said, “Princess Xue, you have quite a few peaches, can you please be so generous as to give me one?”
Chi Xue smiled sweetly and answered, “Xiang Xiang, the peaches are here with me. If you want it, then come and get it.”
Sparks seemed to fly between their eyes as killing intent billowed from within them as they both unsheathed their soul weapons, preparing to deliver killing blows on each other at anytime.
Shang Qing frowned upon seeing this, and as he looked around, he noticed that everyone still didn’t dare to attack Zhong Yue because he showed no flaw in his defence, and none of the people around wished to attack first; they all wanted the others to act first so they could reduce their own risks.
“Ehem, ladies and gentlemen, the Returning Ruins will soon return to the black hole soon and before that, our sect will send us back to our own territories.” Chi Qing reminded as an attempt to taunt the others to attack.
Her attempt, however, returned no reward as nobody moved an inch.
Meanwhile, at the centre of the encirclement, Zhong Yue ignored everyone around him and continued looking at himself, trying to understand the exact reason his strength grew this much.
My Nine Revolving Inner Core has only reached the seventh revolution, so it’s definitely not because of that. Even if I succeeded, I have only reached the sixth level in the state of extremity. Can it be that because of the Six Paths Wheel behind the head of Reincarnation Monarch that I visualized?
He then closed his eyes, observing his inner body where the Pan Gu God stretched out his four arms, with each arm lifting up and controlling the power of the Yin Yang, Shen Cai, Wan Xiang, and Wu Xing Secret Realms.
And now, the four secret realms were all extremely stable, and a virtuous yet mysterious aura rose up from within the four secret realms.
Each time the Pan Gu God changed his stance, he would always give Zhong Yue some new insight into his own power which allowed him to maintain himself in a state that allowed him to comprehend things quickly.
And this was the reason why he became so strong!
After being guided by the Immortal Peach Mother Tree learning the Six Path Reincarnation of Reincarnation Monarch, he now stood at a level he had never before been envisioned!
All creatures in this world lived all under the law of the Six Path Reincarnation, and Zhong Yue’s incredible strength was because he had mastered four out of the six paths!
Suddenly, the dimension in the Returning Ruins trembled vigorously as if a fast moving object came to a sudden halt. The inertia caused the mountains to rock and the bloody water to slosh about.
Immediately, everyone in the Returning Ruins had a shocked expression as they all shouted, “The Returning Ruins has stopped!”
Then everything calmed down, and noises could be heard from underground as the Returning Ruins Land moved slowly again, but this time, instead of moving away from the black hole, the land was slowly being sucked toward the black hole!
This ancient Kun Lun Land then started moving, which meant that this land would soon be devoured by the black hole, only emerging after another 1000 years!
Besides, according to the guesses of the many godly herbs out there, whether or not the Returning Ruins Land will emerge again remained a mystery as this might have been its last appearance before being completely devoured by the black hole!
“Soon, we will all be teleported back.”
Chi Qing laughed and said, “Everyone, are we still going to wait?”
Around Zhong Yue, the people all scuffled about, and as Shang Qing looked around, he thought, If I activated the Lunar Mirror and attacked him, I might be able to fend off his attacks without getting injured… I can also be the trigger that spurs the others to attack him….
As soon as he thought of this, a figure charged toward Zhong Yue as he shouted, “Stop wasting time! Let me kill him!”
Shang Qing was happy and he thought, Who is this idiot? Good, good! He saved me from risking myself getting injured by attacking first!
This figure had eight heads, arms and legs and he bore a wild and strong presence. He was the weird looking man among the four aces of Kun Lun Realm, no one knew his origins but he was known as one of the strongest among the young gods!
As this young man charged towards Zhong Yue, his eight heads roared, and his arms slammed towards Zhong Yue while Zhong Yue visualized his eight arms and swung his arms forward with the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】in his arms.
When their arms collided, the eight headed young man was sent flying away and he spurted out a huge amount of blood as he shrieked.
And at the same time, one after another Qi Practitioners charged toward Zhong Yue with Kua Fuding leading the charge, reaching to the back of Zhong Yue quickly.
“Houtu Mountain River Cauldron!”
Kua Fuding shouted and suddenly, Zhong Yue turned around while the eight-headed young man charged back at them. Then, along with Zhong Yue, the eight headed young man attacked Kua Fuding. Kua Fuding had only one thought in his mind as he was sent flying away in confusion, What just happened?
Chapter 470: Plunder |
The arm guard was part of the Houtu Mountain River Cauldron, it could appear anywhere around Kua Fuding’s mortal body and ward off any incoming attack from any direction. However, Kua Fuding only had one arm guard while Zhong Yue and the young cultivator had a total of sixteen arms, how could one arm guard be able to block them all?
Kua Fuding was sent flying out and crashing into the ground. His head was the first part that hit the ground, sending him into a swoon. The last thought he had was, Was I ambushed by that two deceivious brats….
Zhong Yue and the eight-headed cultivator changed position and they struck at the demon Yu Hui. Yu Hui was struck up high into the sky and nearly all of his rib bones were crushed away!
“What the
shit! These two brats are a team!” Yu Hui shouted in anger, he barely regained his balance just a few moments before he was going to crash, and safely landed on the ground.
Right after he finished shouting, his body suddenly stiffened up, and he fell to the ground like a wooden stick. Wounds burst out from his body and blood soaked the soil below him.
“Nicely done!” Zhong Yue praised.
The eight-headed young cultivator smirked like a proud mischievous child. He raised his hand and high-fived Zhong Yue while the other 14 hands were struck out at the incoming Yan Que’er. The demon lady then quickly raised up her defensive skills in response. But how could two arms were able to fight back with 14 arms? She was badly hit and her body became littered with wounds.
Zhong Yue kicked his leg and the eight-headed cultivator followed and kicked out seven legs as well. A total of eight legs were pressed on the demon lady’s body and sent her flying out a far distance away!
“How dare you all fight with us eight … no, nine brothers! You all are voluntarily asking for death!” the eight-headed young cultivator was saying happily
Yan Que’er’s beautiful countenance was devastated by them, and her high nose was nearly flattened out. She tumbled in mid-air for a few rounds and crashed into the ground. Half of her body was sent into the ground, and her legs above the ground that intermittently twitched were the only signs that she was still alive.
There was a True Spirit demon magnate who rushed forward, but as soon as he saw that even Kua Fuding, Yu Hui, and Que Yan’er were all defeated in just one bout, he was shocked and immediately retreated.
But before he could even move far enough, Zhong Yue surged out the Kui Long Divine Drum, and the two cultivators’ sixteen hands played a drumroll on it. The demon magnate was severely injured, and his body was expanding like a balloon,
He quickly moved back at a faster speed, but his mortal body was still inflating. In just the blink of an eye, he was already pushed to over 10,000 feet long, brimming right through the limit on his mortal body.
Dong, dong, dong——
Louder thrumming sounds came into his ears, and the demon magnate flared his eyes out in fear as his mortal body then exploded, dying on the spot.
While the other Qi Practitioners rushing from the sides were also struck by the divine drum staggering on their feets like drunkards. The drumming then grew louder and faster with every second, it felt like Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator was going to kill them all with the power of the divine drum!
Shang Qing groaned, he quickly cast out the Lunar Mirror and repelled the incoming soundwaves back to Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator. But it wasn’t even considerably far before the repelled soundwaves were cancelled out by the incoming soundwaves.
Shang Qing muffled pained groans, and blood trickled out of his mouth as he fell back onto the ground. But before he fell to the ground, he let out a deep roar and another four eyes formed on his face; together with the two eyes, they formed a circle. He then landed on the ground like a huge toad crouching on the floor.
“Mang-gu——”
Shang Qing sucked in a long breath of air and fought back the incoming soundwaves of the Kui Long Divine Drum with his own sonic attack.
The innate spirit bodies, Moon Innate Spirit Body! Zhong Yue captured Shang Qing’s actions in the corner of his eyes and was shocked.
The two Black Tortoise experts combined into the Black Tortoise celestial being. But just moments after the transformation, the Black Tortoise celestial being was badly struck and turned back into the two experts. However, despite them being stuck in a predicament, the two of them were still as calm as ever. They stood side by side and rained their swords down at the incoming soundwave. They were able to cut through the air at first but were still struck in the sky in the next wave of sonic attack.
The two of them held hands in mid-air and transformed into the Black Tortoise celestial being again. A huge shield emerged before them, and they were able to safely move back with the defense of the shield
Whereas for the demon Su Domi, he had already reacted to the the divine drum when it first started thrumming at them. Without any hesitation, Su Domi grabbed onto Su Wuji’s neck and used the latter as a meat shield against the incoming soundwaves.
When he reached Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator, Su Wuji had already been reduced to ashes by the soundwaves, but not a single wound could be seen on Su Domi. He raised his hands, a demon saber was on the left, and a mountain-like stamp seal on the right, engaging both Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator in a go!
Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator switched places. The demon saber, which was directed at the eight-headed young cultivator, met with Zhong Yue’s Golden Feathery Peng Sword, and the mountain seal clashed with the eight-headed young cultivator’s divine weapon.
The four divine weapons clashed together with great force, and Su Domi spurted out a mouthful of blood. Immediately, he turned his body and another head appeared in front of them. This head looked like the head of a rooster, and it had its own two arms as well, striking at Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator with another two divine weapons!
“Two faces and four arms? One set on each side?” Zhong Yue held on the Kui Long Divine Drum with one hand and wielded the Golden Feathery Peng Sword on the other. Su Domi then took another quarter turn, revealing another face like the eagle and another two arms with two different demon divine weapons.
Zhong Yue’s face then turned solemn, this Su Domi was a multi-faced, multi-handed demon. Zhong Yue had seen many different celestials and demons that had more than one face and a pair of arms. The Tian Wu Celestial Race, the Monster God Ming King, Jiao Qingtu’s nine-headed golden dragon and many others.
But although these celestials and demons would have the heads facing different directions to guard against the attacks from other directions, that wasn’t the case for their arms. Their arms all faced the front and had difficulty covering the back.
But this Su Domi had four heads facing one direction and two arms in every directions. This meant that he was able to defend and attack from all directions!
This was the first time Zhong Yue had ever come across such a bizarre form!
Zhong Yue then asked, “This senior martial brother of the demon race, how many legs do you have?”
Su Domi was momentarily frozen at the question, an opportunity that Zhong Yue used to kick his groin. Just as Su Domi quickly raised his leg to block the kick, the eight-headed young cultivator stood up with one leg and kicked the other seven legs at him.
Peng, peng, peng…
Su Domi was hit seven times, and he released a shrill cry of pain as tears started rolling down his face. His voice was even raised an octave, and his face became as pale as snow at the excruciating pain. The eight arms immediately spread out like wings, and he bolted out from the battlefield, collapsing onto the ground while his legs could clearly be seen shuddering as he feared of loss of his genitals.
“Who are you!?” Shang Qing shouted and questioned in anger as he stared at the eight-headed young cultivator.
Seeing that the surrounding enemies had all been wiped away, Zhong Yue and the eight-headed young cultivator stopped as well. One of the eight heads smiled and said, “De-nek, wrong question! You should ask who are we! I’m Tian Yi!”
Another head then continued, “I’m Tian Er!”
“I’m Tian San!”
“Tian Si!”
…
The eight heads said their names, and the cultivators around were stunned. They were puzzled as to why the young man would give a different name to each of his heads. Moreover, such a simple name that counted from Tian Yi to Tian Ba could only be attributed to lazy, what a lazy fellow.
[Yi is one, and Ba is eight]
“It sounds like … Tian Wu God’s eight little Golden Hous…”
Someone suddenly mumbled softly, “Tian Yi to Tian Ba are e
xactly their names! But they were always weak, how are they so strong now?”
……
“The Tian Wu Celestial Race!”
Shang Qing’s face turned solemn, and he heaved a long breath, saying, “They are of the Tian Wu Celestial Race!”
The Tian Wu Celestial Race was always shrouded in mysteries as they were incredibly rare. This celestial race had only a handful of clansmen, and the present records on them were vague and obscure as well. It was only because of the Tian Wu God’s emergence that Kun Lun began to know more of this race.
All this while, people only knew that there was a Golden Hou Celestial Race, but no one knew of the link between the two celestial races.
“This Tian Wu Go, he is really good at hiding…”
The whole situation came to a stalemate again, the cultivations panting for breath while they slowly tended to their injuries. This Tian Wu young cultivator was seen launching his attacks on Zhong Yue, but in fact, he was only putting up a show to lure the other experts to move as well. As soon as they moved, Zhong Yue and the young cultivator would work together to injure the experts. Powerful young gods like Kua Fuding, Yu Hui, and Su Domi were just a few of the ones that fell victim to this ploy.
Moreover, a True Spirit magnate was killed by them!
As of now, only Shang Qing, Fu Tixiang, and a few others were still not severely injured, However, Fu Tixiang was in a battle with Chi Xue now, and although Chi Qing was also not wounded, she was too weak to bring any trouble to Zhong Yue. Not to mention that the Princess Qing of the Western Mother Empire had gone crazy and went all out against Chi Xue in the hope that she died.
Rays flashed across Shang Qing’s eyes, and Su Domi forcibly pressed down the pain. The Black Tortoise celestial being took out a huge banner from the Yuan Shen secret realms and the other Qi Practitioners also readied themselves.
Kua Fuding, Yu Hui and Que Yan’er were still in a swoon.
“Consume the divine herbs!” Suddenly, Su Domi said sternly.
The experts soon understood the situation, and they quickly consumed their respective divine herbs to remedy the wounds. Their eyes were closely following Zhong Yue’s and the Tian Wu cultivator’s every movement, waiting for a flaw to emerge so they could deliver the killing blows.
