Rise of Humanity

  The bell rang and the space rift enlarged wider as the imperial bell disappeared into the darkness.

  Zhong Yue smiled, he mumbled, “And so I just thought that she is emotionless like a cold star. But it seems like even she can get salty. Don’t you worry, the Ancestral Star is mine, and nothing shall ever harm it! However, the Shao Hao Bell was brought away by Si Ming, meaning I can’t borrow its power anymore. This is going to make my future battles somewhat more difficult.”

  “Xin Huo," Zhong Yue look into his psyche ocean and saw the little flame, “You didn’t chose her but me instead, I…”

  Xin Huo suddenly lunged over and hugged on his leg while crying out loud. Zhong Yue was shocked and completely clueless.

  “I just let a pureblood Fuxi slipped away from my grasp, she might just be the last pureblood Fuxi in this world left!" The little flame was crying so hard, he sobbed and said, “And I even forgot to make her stay to make some pureblood Fuxi babies with you! I made such a huge mistake! I should’ve asked her to make a mountain of babies before she left… Zhong Yue, you pay me back my pureblood Fuxi inheritors!”

  Suddenly, the little flame stopped crying and glared a pair of bright eyes at Zhong Yue, he shouted, “I let go a pureblood Fuxi because of you, you better to repay me with another one!”

  “I will, I will, I will make sure I pay you back a pureblood Fuxi," Zhong Yue nodded unceasingly, he answered while smiling, “From today onwards, I will listen to Master Xin Huo and make more babies, I will try my best to make a house of the pureblood Fuxi!”

  “That’s the spirit!" Xin Huo stood up straight, he waved his hand and said, “Your children must be stronger and better than this Si Ming, she mustn’t be able to continue acting arrogant and proud, not in front of me!”

  Zhong Yue thought about it and he felt something weird in it, he quickly asked, “Xin Huo, didn’t you chose me as your inheritor? Why are you looking into my children now?”

  Xin Huo gave him a pair of puzzled eyes as the little flame replied, “Since when did I chose you?”

  “You just said that Si Ming didn’t have the human warmth you require and that you chose me instead of you…”

  “You think too much, young man of the Fuxi Clan," Xin Huo raised his little finger and poked it into his nostril as he said, “We just met with a pureblood Fuxi today, which means that we might meet with another one in the future. On the Zi Wei Imperial Star, there might just really be a Fuxi, even if there isn’t, you are still a third priority. The second is still a pureblood Fuxi among your children…”

  Zhong Yue was stunned, then he shouted in anger, “I am still third?”

  Xin Huo nodded while comforting him, “Yeah, it’s a very good position to be in already. Look, that Fuxi lady isn’t even third. You should be proud of yourself! Oh, back to the real matter, when are you going to a house of babies?”

  “Never!”

  “Come on, you promised! You said you are going to work hard and make a house of them!”

  ……

  Zhong Yue inspected his mortal body and Yuan Shen and didn’t find any traces of injuries. Moreover, he could tell that his cultivation base even further increased. Zhong Yue couldn’t help but admire Si Ming’s prowess.

  She looks young, it shouldn’t be too long a time since she started cultivating. Just how did she cultivate to such a stage within such a short time?

  It was Si Ming’s divine third eye that recovered all of his injuries, saved him from death — it was truly amazing.

  ……

  I need to work hard as well, for one day, I will catch up to her and prove to her I am no inferior to her! No, not only will I catch up to her, but I will surpass her and surpass all of the other Xin Huo inheritors as well. I will prove myself to Xin Huo as well!

  Zhong Yue said to himself. He raised his hand and returned Husan Weng to his Yuan Shen secret realms. Husan Weng played a huge role in saving his life and was gravely wounded as well. Even so, Husan Weng never left his side and even fought with him until the end.

  Husan Weng was truly loyal to his friends.

  Zhong Yue glanced around and reclaimed the Divine Wing Saber, he placed it back into the copper lamp. Then, he moved toward the monster god Yu Wenju’s corpse, removing the three divine weapons and kept them in his Yuan Shen secret realms.

  Zhong Yue thought, My willow leaf jade sword is in Princess Jin Xiu’s hands after she killed Bo Xun and if Yu Wenju ate Princess Jin Xiu, where would the demon sword be now?

  He focused his senses and soon opened the monster god’s mouth before walking into Yu Wenju’s body.

  Yu Wenju’s corpse was incredibly huge. After he was killed by Si Ming, he turned back into his true form, a godly serpent over a hundred miles long.

  Zhong Yue walked for nearly a hundred miles through Yu Wenju’s body. There were mountains and rivers, green grasses and clear waters all over the place, it looked like a paradise in here.

  Suddenly, he raised his head up and saw five light wheels revolving in mid-air above him. Yu Wenju’s Yuan Shen secret realms were well hidden in the mortal body, the entrance was these five light wheels. Without the willow leaf jade sword, it would be incredibly hard to locate these five secret realms.

  Zhong Yue flew up and entered one of the five secret realms. It was because he could sense his willow leaf jade sword in this Yuan Shen secret realm, that’s how he could find the Yuan Shen secret realms.

  When he entered the secret realms, Zhong Yue’s heart shuddered. There were godly lights flowing all around the place, tens of divine weapons were hidden in this Yuan Shen secret realms. Among them, there was a jade sword shaped like the willow leaf — it was Bo Xun’s demon divine weapon,

  The other divine weapons were mostly the insect divine weapons of the insect experts that died by Zhong Yue’s hands!

  Zhong Yue killed them in a bloody battle, he didn’t have the time and energy to retrieve the divine weapons. Yet, who knew these divine weapons would appear inside Yu Wenju’s Yuan Shen secret realm.

  These insect divine weapons were mostly probably retrieved by Princess Jin Xiu before she was eaten by Yu Wenju. He claimed these treasures and kept them in his Yuan Shen secret realms.

  Zhong Yue looked around and found many other treasures piling up on the sides. There were the divine golds and godly materials piling up like mountains, these would be the lifetime treasures collected by Yu Wenju.

  Furthermore, there were tens of thousands of insect corpses on the other end, all forged from divine gold. It seemed like Yu Wenju also collecte divine gold and expanding his vault while he was escaping in the underground.

  Zhong Yue flew into the other Yuan Shen secret realm and saw mountains of medicinal pellets. The fragrance of these medicinal pellets suffused the air, most of these medicinal pellets were concocted by divine herbs.

  He walked into another secret realm again and found the five elemental Qi refined to their finest in it. The metal Qi turned into mountain, the wood Qi formed trees, the earth Qi condensed into the earth, the fire Qi rose into the sky as the sun, and the water Qi flowed like an ocean.

  Yu Wenju’s secret realms were like a divine vault, no, five divine vaults!

  Zhong Yue praised. These five divine vaults were too great a treasure. If he could bring only the divine weapons back to Swords Gate, he could equip every elder with a divine weapon!

  But how do I erase the insect gods’ spirit marks on the insect divine weapons? If their marks aren’t removed, then they will always be able to sense it and control it even from afar…

  Chapter 519: How Nice |

  Zhong Yue racked his head but still couldn’t figure out how to wipe away the insect gods’ marks on the divine weapons. If the marks on the divine weapons weren’t wiped away, then wielding the insect divine weapons would be tantamount to suicide. As long as the insect gods they were able to sense their divine weapons, they would be able to control it and easily kill whomever was using their weapons!

  I�
�m still too weak…

  Zhong Yue shook his head and kept the insect divine weapons in the copper lamp while keeping Yu Wenju’s three divine weapons in his Yuan Shen secret realms.

  When Yu Wenju cast the venomous fangs on me, their powers already stabbed on me before the weapons did. These are the attacks that strike mainly on the psyche level, it is very rare to come across one.

  Zhong Yue raised a venomous fang up in his hand, the divine weapon looked similar to Long Yue’s Fang Blade. Both the divine weapons were forged from the monster gods’ fangs. However, the venomous fangs were stronger than the Fang Blade, this was most probably due to Yu Wenju’s prowess being stronger than the Xiang Dragon god.

  Furthermore, the venomous fangs contained an incredibly potent venom that could even numb gods!

  These two venomous fangs were undoubtedly two powerful weapons!

  Along with the Fang Blade, Long Yue will will three divine weapons now. From then onward, Long Yue can definitely take a firm position in the monster race already!

  Zhong Yue kept the two venomous fangs and he looked at the serpent spear. It was forged from Yu Wenju’s tongue and the two tips of the spear were terrifyingly sharp and there were barbs all across the spear. Zhong Yue clenched on the spear and swung it in the air, he shook his head as he realized the serpent spear wasn’t suitable for him. Furthermore, his cultivation technique, the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】had little to nothing related to the monster element, so he wouldn’t be able to unleash the power of the serpent spear anyway.

  Senior Martial Brother Gu Hongzi is still lacking a divine weapon, this serpent spear suits the best for him.

  Zhong Yue kept the serpent spear and gazed at Yu Wenju’s corpse, he thought, In the monster race, the serpent, snake-like monsters usually walk on a path of evolution toward the Jiao Dragon and hopefully, the orthodox dragons. Such as Chi Liannv and Lian Xin were both monster snakes and tried to breakthrough by evolving into the Jiao Dragons. But why did this serpent god wasn’t the same and become a god with the serpent mortal body instead?

  Suddenly, Xin Huo said in his psyche ocean, “Brat Yue, this serpent god part of the Huaxu bloodline, his mortal body is incredibly beneficial to you!”

  Huaxu bloodline?

  Zhong Yue’s body shuddered and he exclaimed out in shock, “No wonder he can become the monster god, he has the blood of the Huaxu Clan!”

  The Huaxu Clan were the innate snake gods and the Leize Clan were the innate dragon gods. Both of these races were on par with the Fuxi Clan and were all part of the eight sovereign races!

  The grand ancestor of the Fuxi Clan was the direct descendant of Huaxu and Leize. Thus, the Fuxi Clan had both the powers of the Huaxu and Leize bloodlines. This was an advantage that gave them the capital to start the Earth Order Era.

  Before Zhong Yue broke the blood seals in his body, he had earned a few drops of Ancestral Dragon blood that had greatly helped him in refining the Fuxi blood in him. The Ancestral Dragon was exactly a Leize Clan dragon.

  Although, he never met with any of the Huaxu Clan members yet.

  It was truly a surprise that Yu Wenju was a serpent with part of the Huaxu blood in him!

  “Though, the Huaxu bloodline in him is faint." Xin Huo inspected the monster god’s corpse and said, “But still incredible enough for the Ancestral Star. Take out his monster god inner core, you can refine the Huaxu blood from it and further awaken your Fuxi bloodline!”

  Zhong Yue was overjoyed, his heart was thumping heavily. Quickly, Zhong Yue surged his psyche out into Yu Wenju’s psyche ocean and removed the monster god inner core. This monster god inner core was smaller than the beast god inner core he had, but when Zhong Yue acquired the beast god inner core, most of its essence had already dissipated into thin air.

  This monster god inner core was in its peak state, the essence in it was fully intact and thus, it was a few times stronger than the beast god inner core!

  Most importantly, the blood essences in this inner core were refined by Yu Wenju, there weren’t any impurities in them. This allowed Zhong Yue to extract the Huaxu blood out more easily!

  With this inner core, I will be able to strengthen my Fuxi bloodline!

  Zhong Yue thought, he placed the monster god inner core into his psyche ocean. Instantly, the monster god inner core been refined and the essences in it were extracted out. Waves and waves of energy billowed in Zhong Yue’s body and the level of his Fuxi bloodline was also slowly increasing.

  This Yu Wenju, what a fortune figure he is to me…

  Zhong Yue praised in his heart, he was really grateful for the dead monster god. From one side of the insect planet to the other, the monster god traveled far to reach to him and ‘present’ the monster god inner core to Zhong Yue. Such great deeds, no words could really describe how grateful Zhong Yue was now.

  Yu Wenju’s five secret realms can be refined into five ring soul weapons, they will be incredibly strong.

  With just a thought, Zhong Yue’s psyche surged out and brought the monster god’s corpse into his Yuan Shen secret realms. Yu Wenju’s mortal body was huge, but Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen secret realms weren’t small either.

  The monster god was stored in the Yuan Shen secret realms, his mortal body was huge like a mountain ridge and godly aura suffused the air.

  “Mister Zhong, can I some godly blood?" Husan Weng raised its head looking at the monster god and asked.

  “You can even bathe yourself in the godly blood," Zhong Yue laughed, he made a hole on Yu Wenju’s head and blood filled into the hole. Husan Weng quickly leaped into the pool of blood and bathed itself in it.

  “How nice of you, sending your divine blood over for me…" Husan Weng looked at the monster god’s head and said with gratitude.

  I wonder if Junior Martial Sister Jin’er and the others managed to escape?

  Zhong Yue bolted away while he fissioned another inner core with the【Mystic Duplication Technique】.

  Although he plundered many treasures, the death of Bo Xun was a great lost to him. Bo Xun was the demon incarnation he had spent great effort in nurturing, more than just a few years of time.

  It wouldn’t be easy to re-cultivate the demon incarnation. Zhong Yue was only able to cultivate Bo Xun so quickly the last time all because of the help of the lotus saint herb. But as he finished consuming the lotus saint herb, it would take a longer time to re-cultivate another demon incarnation, another Bo Xun.

  Thankfully Yu Wenju some of the best medicinal pellets in his secret realms. These medicinal pellets are able to greatly shorten the time to re-cultivate Bo Xun. Sending his lifetime collections to me all the way from the other side of the insect planet, what a nice god he is…

  The young man from the Zhong Shan clan was elated, more so after consuming a god-leveled medicinal pellet.

  A few days later, he flew out from the dark side of the insect planet, finally seeing gleams of light shining down from the sky.

  Very soon, he encountered an insect tribe and furtively refined an insect expert into his own Gu insect. He hid in the insect expert’s Yuan Shen secret realms and used it as his vessel.

  Swords Gate has many treasures, but too few experts. This will only bring us calamities, I need to refine more of these insect experts so that they can be of great help to our Swords Gate!

  Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes, he ordered the insect expert to search all around. He found an insect magnate and ambushed the latter, suppressing the insect magnate and refined him into his own Gu insect.

  After tens of days, more than 20 insect experts were lingering around in the insect planet. Most of these experts were magnate cultivators and their bodies were forged from divine golds.

  Another month passed, Zhong Yue finally reached to the side where the sun was right above him, but the number of insect experts under him was still the same, just over 20 of them, nothing more, nothing less.

  Controlling the insect experts and refining them into Gu insects requir
ed a high standard on the cultivator’s psyche and Yuan Shen. All of these insect experts that Zhong Yue had captured were all magnates, and some of them were even stronger than he was himself. If he had tried to refine more of the other insect experts, he wouldn’t be able to handle all of them at once, potentially opening the door to their betrayal.

  This … what a terrifying godly battle!

  Suddenly, Zhong Yue’s heart shuddered and he ordered the Gu insects to stop. The insect magnates stood alongside one another in a line and in front of them, it was a barren land of over ten thousand miles, filled with the leftover skills of the gods.

  Evidently, this was where the gods battled. Some of their skills were still lingering around the place and transformed the landscape and environment all at once.

  Zhong Yue suddenly frowned as he could vaguely perceive some snowflakes snowing down from the sky.

  Then, he saw the aftermath of the Ice Frost Mirror and the Glacial Frost Palace.

  Bai Canghai isn’t strong enough to wield and unleash these three lord-leveled divine weapons, then it can only be the Bai Zhe Clan god, Bai Yuncang.

  Zhong Yue furrowed his brow and he meticulously inspected the surrounding, he thought, By the looks of it, Bai Yuncang and Bai Canghai must come across more than one insect gods, which would explain why the battlefield is so terrifying. Bai Canghai should still be alive because if he were dead, then the Pure Yang Qi I left in his body would’ve returned to me, but it didn’t. If Bai Canghai is still alive, then he could only have left the insect planet and gone back to the Ancestral Star already…

  Moments later, Zhong Yue’s face turned solemn, he inhaled deeply and walked out from an insect magnate’s Yuan Shen secret realms. He surged his psyche out and kept all of the insect experts into his Yuan Shen secret realms while he strode into the war torn-like godly battlefield.
