Rise of Humanity

by <unknown>

  Suddenly, Zhong Yue moved, striding toward Kua Fuding while the Tian Wu young cultivator followed. He smiled and said, “I feel so good, the sense of achievement feels so great, especially when I see them looking at me with spite… Senior martial brother, what are you doing?”

  Zhong Yue surged his psyche out into Kua Fuding’s Yuan Shen secret realms, and he smiled, “This brat might have gotten the Peaches of Immortality. I’m searching to see if he got any.”

  Tian Wu young cultivator’s eyes brightened up as well, he followed behind and helped Zhong Yue in plundering the treasures in Kua Fuding’s Yuan Shen secret realms.

  Abruptly, Kua Fuding slowly woke up, and just as he was going to open his eyes, 16 punches struck his head, sending him back into the realm of unconsciousness again.

  “Just a few unripe ones with only one ripe Peaches of Immortality, all from the normal divine trees….”

  Zhong Yue shook his head and handed all of the peaches over to the Tian Wu young cultivator. These peaches weren’t ripe, and for those ripe Peaches of Immortality, it came from the most ordinary Immortality Peach Trees. It could only bring about an additional one or two hundred years longevity at most.

  The Tian Wu young cultivator was incredibly happy, and he said, “I’ve just found a few unripe ones myself, and so I thought I wouldn’t be able to complete our master’s task. In fact, why don’t we just kill him?”

  “If the Western Mother Celestial Race has the Western Mother Empress’s Amnesty Decree, then the Kua Fu Celestial Race might also have the Kua Fu’s Amnesty Decree.”, Zhong Yue shook his head and said, “It’s better if we stay out from triggering those amnesty decrees… If only I can take out his arm guard….”

  Zhong Yue then gave up after a few unsuccessful attempts. The two of them then walked up to Yu Hui. Yu Hui had already woken up. He had consumed the divine herb and was remedying his wounds while suddenly, his face changed drastically as he saw them coming toward him. Immediately, Yu Hui quickly took out all of the Peaches of Immortality he had and gritted his teeth while saying, “I’ll give you the peaches! Don’t you dare try me, I have the Tian Jin Amnesty Decree as well, you want my life? Then we’ll die together!”

  “How about the other divine herbs?” Zhong Yue’s eyes brightened up as he said.

  Yu Hui gritted his teeth harder, and he took the divine herbs out form his Yuan Shen secret realms and Zhong Yue then left him on his own. The Peaches of Immortality were all given to the Tian Wu young cultivator while Zhong Yue kept the divine herbs for himself.

  The two of them then walked toward Yan Que’er. Before they even reached to her, the young demon lady had managed to pull herself out of the ground and bolted away with extreme speed.

  “Woah! She wants to run!”, the Tian Wu young cultivator shouted happily.

  Seconds later, the Long Que Saint Race young lady was struck into the ground again. Two young cultivators have held her on the ground and no matter how hard the young lady cried for help or cursed them, the both were still doing their own things.

  Moments later, Zhong Yue and the Tian Wu young cultivator stood up in great satisfaction. The two of them appeared to be incredibly satisfied and high-spirited while the young lady on the ground was broken-hearted, she sat there not moving as if she has lost her soul.

  With her current appearance and the shabby clothes she was wearing in now, it was definitely hard to not get the wrong idea.

  While the young lady was mumbling in tears, “My divine herbs…”

  Chapter 471: Innate Tai Yin Divine Water |

  Zhong Yue and the Tian Wu young cultivator robbed the three strong and powerful experts and then walked toward Shang Qing. The Tian Wu cultivator smirked and said, “I don’t think he has the divine amnesty decree, does he?”

  “Well, it’s hard to say. After all, Senior Martial Brother Shang Qing is one of the strongest young gods, he might have something like that with him,” Zhong Yue smiled and said, “Brother Shang Qing, you’ve been making a lot of noise, trying to pull strings and making us all fight. Have you ever thought that you will end up like this?”

  Shang Qing raised his brows and twitched his lips as he watched the two coming closer to him. He suddenly laughed and said, “Senior Martial Brother Zhong, do you really need to do this? If you robbed me as well, my mother god and the other gods will personally hunt you down. I think it’s best if you save yourself from the dangers.”

  “That’s right!” a celestial magnate said coldly, “Zhong Shan Clan boy, you are invincible here, but you can’t live here forever, can you? Have you ever thought of the consequences that you’ll have to face when you return to Kun Lun?”

  Another young lady then said coldly, “The Returning Ruins is a lawless place, you can do anything you want here, but that won’t be the same for Kun Lun! In Kun Lun, the gods can easily kill you with just a look!”

  Zhong Yue laughed at them and shook his head, “I have the Tian Wu God in my corner. Who do you think I’m afraid of?”

  The Tian Wu young cultivator then said as well, “That’s right, our master Tian Wu God is not afraid of your teachers and parents!”

  “Our master has too many enemies, it’s no matter to make a few more!”

  “Our master can endure many strikes!”

  “Our master is already used to it!”

  …

  ……

  Shang Qing’s face then changed drastically, and he looked at the Qi Practitioners around, “Brothers and sisters, are we really just going to wait for him to come to us one by one? If our divine herbs and Peaches of Immortality are taken away from us, how would you propose we explain this to our teachers? Su Domi, what are you going to do by then? You are a demon, he would have no problem simply killing you! Xuan Zhen, Xuan Pin, are the two of you really willing to let him take away what we spent all our efforts trying to obtain? A mere human?”

  Su Domi shook his head and said, “I have the divine decree, he can’t kill me.” Surprisingly, his voice was still laced with fear. He immediately realized the oddness and quickly lowered his tone so that no one would know what was going on with him.

  Meanwhile, the Black Tortoise celestial was silent.

  The other Qi Practitioners were also not answering. The general Qi Practitioners’ prowess were slightly weaker than these young gods, and even some of the True Spirit magnates couldn’t defeat them. After all, all of these young gods had the protective decrees given to them by their guardians.

  On the other hand, the ordinary Qi Practitioners wouldn’t have such luxuries, and so it was best for them to stay out any further trouble. It’s not worth antagonizing Zhong Yue and getting killed because of that!

  Seeing that no one answered him, Shang Qing’s heart sank. These Qi Practitioners were clearly unwilling to stand out now; they were all waiting for a better chance to take down Zhong Yue once and for all.

  Furthermore, they were only wounded because Zhong Yue and the Tian Wu young cultivator caught them off guard. No one knew that Tian Wu was in fact, a team with Zhong Yue, but now that they knew, it was impossible for Tian Wu to ambush them anymore.

  With and without knowing would lead to two different outcomes.

  As long as someone was able to drag on Tian Wu, the whole crowd would then swarm in and surround Zhong Yue!

  While Shang Qing was also a strong and powerful young god, he was the best candidate to do it!

  All of a sudden, Shang Qing laughed; the fear and terror that once covered his face were now nowhere to be seen, and what took their place were laughter and confidence. “Well, well, and so I thought I could still hide it for a little longer. Senior Martial Brother Zhong, Tian Wu. Su Domi, Xuan Zhen, Xuan Pin... you are all really disgusting, planning on letting me die first so that you all can pick off my treasures. Well, shame on all of you! Today, I will show you my true strength!

  His aura then burst out and grew stronger with every second. His states of extremity were opened, and his blood essence pierced a
hole in the clouds above. A bright moon appeared behind him, and in it was a vague image of a white tiger crouching atop a six-eyed Star Toad!

  Krong——

  His cultivation base then broke through the Heavenly Dharma level, entering the True Spirit level. Two Yuan Shens appeared behind him, one being the six-eyed Star Toad Yuan Shen with the other being the Western Mother Yuan Shen. The six-eyed Star Toad turned into a three-legged celestial being while the Western Mother Yuan Shen turned into a leopard-tailed young lady — his two Yuan Shen was a male and a female!

  These two Yuan Shen were both cultivated into the True Spirits, and so they possessed abundant energy!

  “Twin Spirit Twin Yuan Shen?”

  Zhong Yue exclaimed in shock, and his heart thumped, he has finally met with a Twin Spirit expert!

  He himself was a Twin Spirits cultivator, having both the sun and moon spirit at the same time; it was certainly surprising to see that Shang Qing also had Twin Spirits. But different from Zhong Yue, Shang Qing’s Twin Spirits were the moon spirit and the white tiger spirit!

  Furthermore, Shang Qing had even split his soul into two, manifesting them into the male and female Yuan Shen at the same time!

  This was something not even Zhong Yue could have done.

  Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen could be in the form of the Golden Crow celestial being, the Star Toad celestial being, the Fuxi Yuan Shen, or even the Sui Sovereign Yuan Shen. But to summon two Yuan Shen at once was a feat that was currently beyond Zhong Yue’s abilities.

  “This brat is really good at hiding…,” Tian Wu young cultivator mumbled and said, “The Twin Spirits is a Yuan Shen only seen in past records. And the strongest spirits in Kun Lun are the innate moon spirit and the white tiger spirit, both of which he possesses!”

  The other Tian Wu head then said, “But what’s more important is... is he a male or a female?”

  “He looks like a male, how can he be a female?” Tian Si replied.

  Zhong Yue was also startled, he noticed it as well. The three-legged Yuan Shen was a male, but the Western Mother Yuan Shen was female. For ordinary cultivators, the gender of the cultivator themselves dictated the gender of their Yuan Shen.

  If the cultivator was a male, the Yuan Shen would be male, and vice versa.

  Shang Qing had now shown the qualities of both male and female in his Yuan Shen, which meant that Shang Qing was a male and female at the same time as well!

  “Shang Qing, how did you do this?” one of the eight heads, Tian Qi asked curiously.

  Shang Qing laughed proudly, and his voice undulated from male to female, low and deep to high and shrill, as he said, “After I arrived at the Returning Ruins, I quickly searched for the Heavenly God Plants. With the divine herbs, I was able to breakthrough to the level of True Spirit. But, as I wanted to have all the treasures in here, Ihid my prowess until now until I found a chance to wipe you all away…”

  Tian Qi suddenly interrupted and said impatiently, “I’m asking how you made yourself a mix between a male and female. I don’t want to know your journey of breaking through the cultivation level.”

  “Quick, quick, tell us, tell us!” The other heads then said in unison.

  Shang Qing’s face immediately turned gloomy, and he placed his hands in the sleeves while sneering coldly in response, “You all are scum that know nothing of my prowess! Do you know how strong I am? I’ve opened all of the extreme states with only the True Spirit cultivation level’s state of extremity left. What do you have that you can fight me with? Zhong Shan Clan boy, didn’t you always want to know what’s in my sleeve? I’ll show you today…”

  Then, he finally pulled out the item he had always been hiding in his sleeves. It was a five inch long bamboo tube with a sealed cover and on it. Shang Qing opened the sealed cover and revealed the clear water in it.

  The water was bright like the moonlight, when the bamboo tube was opened, the water then hovered in mid-air while it was shrouded with godly rays. The pool of water wasn’t much, barely being able to fill a cultivator’s hands.

  “This is the legendary Innate Tai Yin Divine Waters…”

  Shang Qing looked at the pool of water and mumbled with admiration, “This is the greatest water of all. Do you even know how precious a drop of it is? This water are the saint treasures of the Kun Lun imperial court. Even the Western Mother Empire’s Nacre Lake divine water wasn’t comparable to it. Those waters are said to be gifted to the Reincarnation Saint Monarch by the Innate Tai Yin God herself. Today, you should all feel honored that you can die from such pure water. Be glad that I, as a Moon Innate Spirit Body, am qualified to use it…”

  The water that hovered in mid-air was extremely beautiful, and so was the godly aura it exuded!

  A godly aura they had never felt before rose from the water, and even before Shang Qing exerted his control on it, the Qi Practitioners were already feeling its suppression!

  The experts around were suppressed of their arcane energies, the Yuan Shen, and also the psyches. The flowing water was like the prettiest goddesses moving around, every movement was incredibly beautiful, but within the movements was a force of power that could destroy everyone present with just the snap of a finger!

  The Innate Tai Yin Divine Waters!

  Even the young gods like Su Domi were shocked, and their faces changed drastically. The divine water was beyond imagination, and they were unsure if the divine decrees given to them were really able to withstand the power of the divine waters.

  Zhong Yue’s brows raised as well, and light wheels emerged behind him while the shabby copper lamp flew out — Zhong Yue was going to take out the Divine Wing Saber.

  The Divine Wing Saber was his greatest trump card. He’d never used it in the battles with the experts because one, there was simply no need for it, and two, the Divine Wing Saber would consume too much energy from him. It was also because he didn’t want to reveal it in front of Peng Qianqiu and Peng Jinyi in the case they had certain means to forcibly take it away from him.

  But now, he was left with no other choice!

  The Golden Feathery Peng Sword flew into the copper lamp, lifting the huge saint weapon up and bringing it out from the lamp. Zhong Yue thought solemnly, The Divine Wing Saber is the saint weapon of the Kun Peng Celestial Race, I wonder if it can withstand the Innate Tai Yin Divine Water…

  He was really unsure of it. After all, the Innate Tai Yin Divine Water was a precious gift given to the Reincarnation Saint Monarch by an innate god!

  Shang Qing smiled gently, he glanced around and then looked at the flowing water with reverence as he said softly, “Friends, you may now… die!”

  He then imbued his energy into the Innate Tai Yin Divine Water. The small pool of divine water then turned into a raging ocean, with water dragons flying out of its billowing waves and attacking the experts around!

  Su Domi, Yu Hui, and the others quickly raised their divine weapons. They slashed at the water dragons, and immediately, the divine weapons all melted away by the waters!

  Meanwhile, Zhong Yue’s face turned incredibly bizarre, he didn’t move the Divine Wing Saber anymore and has just stared at the copper lamp lid.

  A round pearl was flying up from the copper lamp and with a leap, it flew out from the copper lamp

  The round pearl enlarged and finally turned into a huge jade globe that revolved above his head, while inside the crystal globe, there was a beautiful goddess sleeping quietly at the center of the crystal globe.

  As soon as the crystal globe came out, the billowing Innate Tai Yin Divine Water took a turn and rushed right toward the crystal globe.

  Shang Qing’s face drastically changed, and he tried to regain control of the divine water with all his might, but all of his effort were in vain. He couldn’t even move a single drop of the Innate Tai Yin Divine Waters, and it was all sucked into the crystal globe. What was left in his hand was only an empty bamboo tube.

  Shang Qing was stunned while Zhong Yue’s fist grew large
r in his eyes!

  Chapter 472: None Would Survive |

  Shang Qing muffled a deep groan, his neck made a few turns, and his body twisted like ropes as well. He was sent back a few hundred feet and laid on the ground like a three-legged toad.

  “Mang-gu——”

  Shang Qing finally came back to his senses after being hit, and he was quick to respond with an attack of his own; he was indeed a cultivator who had opened all the extreme states!

  When the sonic attack reached Zhong Yue, he was already halfway to reaching Shang Qing. Without hesitation, Zhong Yue struck the Kui Long Divine Drum and the opposing soundwaves collided. The power of the two sonic attacks then swept dusts and grass all around them up into the air!

  Shang Qing was struck back, and he laid on the ground like a toad again. Six bright moons appeared behind him, and the space in front of him contorted like the broken mirror. Silver rays materialized into the silver shards and rained down on Zhong Yue to pin him to the ground.

  Zhong Yue then wielded the golden sword and retaliated with a wave of sword rays. The【Great Boundless Sword Qi】was fully cast, and all of the silver shards were cleared away. At the same time, the Kui Long Divine Drum hovered above him and thrummed unceasingly!

  “Krong——”

  Shang Qing’s body morphed into the form of the white tiger and the Gold Qi around formed into an exoskeleton frame around his body. Sharp golden bones protruded out of his joints and fought back with Zhong Yue’s incoming Sword Qi.

  The three-legged Star Toad Yuan Shen and the Western Mother Yuan Shen appeared behind him. The three-legged celestial being held on the Lunar Mirror and shone at the direction of the Kui Long Divine Drum, reflecting and repelling the incoming sound waves back at it!

  The Western Mother Yuan Shen was then infused into his mortal body, changing Shang Qing’s form into a coquettish-looking young lady with a leopard tail on his body, greatly boosted his prowess!
