Rise of Humanity

  Jun Sixie laughed and continued, “After that, when we saw the bright moon and the Star Toad, we were sure that it was you.”

  “I see.” Zhong Yue nodded and then asked solemnly, “Have the two of you absorbed any spiritual energy from this lower realm?”

  Chapter 669: Third Style of the【God Slaying Three Styles】 |

  Qiu Jin’er and Jun Sixie nodded. They were severely injured by the followers, and in order to fight back the enemies, of course they would have to absorb the spiritual energy and fix their wounds.

  Immediately, Zhong Yue’s heart sank. Once the cultivator had absorbed the spiritual energy of the lower realm, they would become chained by the laws of heaven and earth, making it impossible for them to leave the lower realm!

  Even experts like the Realm Lord wouldn’t be able to fight back the power of a lower realm, let alone Qi Practitioners!

  However, there was a way to break free from the lower realm, that is to attain the power of Six Paths and Reincarnation, and merge the two together into the Dao of Six Paths Reincarnation just like what Zhong Yue did!

  Only the complete Six Paths Reincarnation allows the cultivators to exit the lower realms.

  Zhong Yue could teach them the way, but time was still needed. He took six years to do it, about seven months to the Ancient Land of God Graves and less than a day to the outside world.

  Thus, the ladies had a lot of time for them to do it.

  Qiu Jin’er was fortunate as the godly ray opened her Bloodline Secret Realm and allowed her to cultivate the Six Paths Reincarnation. But Jun Sixie hadn’t opened the Bloodline Secret Realm, making it impossible for her to cultivate the Six Paths Reincarnation!

  Zhong Yue pondered for seconds, he explained to them and the ladies started to get worried. It was a despair future to be trapped in the lower realm, they would be unable to leave and couldn’t even be reincarnated!

  Zhong Yue thought and comforted them, “Don’t worry, there are still many treasures out there that can open the Bloodline Secret Realm. As long as the Ancient Land of God Graves is still here, I can bring it for Senior Martial Sister Jun!”

  Then, he surged his psyche out and imparted them his attainments in the power of Six Paths and Reincarnation, and also the way to merge the two powers into one. He said, “Don’t worry and cultivate as usual. I will return soon.”

  Just as he was leaving, he suddenly remembered something and asked, “Jin’er, have you come across anything during the opening of the Bloodline Secret Realm?”

  Qiu Jin’er was puzzled, “Come across what?”

  Zhong Yue wanted to frown but he had no eyebrows, he thought, Didn’t Jin’er meet the curse placed by the terrifying existence? Both Senior Martial Brother Feng Xiaozhong and I met the curse, as if we’d been brought back a hundred thousand years to meet with the terrifying existence that place it down. But why didn’t she?

  Xin Huo then said, “It might’ve been the godly ray or the Song Realm that hindered the curse from happening. That’s why she didn’t experience what you did.”

  “Jin’er, let go of your psyche and bloodline. Don’t worry, I just want to check your body and Yuan Shen!” Zhong Yue suddenly said.

  Qiu Jin’er blushed, she lowered her head and murmured quietly, “Senior martial sister is still here…”

  Jun Sixie sneered coldly on the side and scorned, “Junior martial brother, what are you trying to do now? You don’t even have a mortal body.”

  Zhong Yue quickly realized that the ladies had misunderstood his words, he quickly explained, “I just want to check on Jin’er’s bloodline and her Yuan Shen’s bloodline, not her body…”

  Qiu Jin’er and Jun Sixie both heaved a breath of relief. The former then relaxed her psyche and allowed Zhong Yue to inspect her bloodline.

  About ten percent of the Fuxi blood in her body was awakened, allowing her to awaken the divine heart. But she didn’t awaken the divine eyes while the Fuxi snake tail was nearly awakened.

  The Bloodline Secret Realm did linked her mortal body’s and Yuan Shen’s bloodlines together, but as she didn’t awaken much of the Fuxi blood, there wasn’t anything else extraordinary happening.

  Zhong Yue looked closer and realized that although Qiu Jin’er had opened the Bloodline Wheel, not many of the seals over the Fuxi blood were broken.

  When I broke the first layer of seals, about twenty percent of the Fuxi blood had awakened whereas Jin’er now only has ten percent. It seems like only by breaking the first layer of seal would trigger the curse, and the cultivation of the Six Paths Wheel has no direct relation to the curse.

  As soon as Zhong Yue thought of it, he was relieved. As long as Qiu Jin’er didn’t break the first layer of the bloodline seals, he wouldn’t have to worry about her encountering the curse anymore.

  He stood up and walked out of the sea palace, he said, “Jin’er, senior martial sister, stay here and cultivate. The song here is useful for the comprehending the Six Paths and Reincarnation. In the mean time, I will find another fortune for senior martial sister!”

  Qiu Jin’er and Jun Sixie watched him walk away before diving back into their cultivation.

  Zhong Yue reunited with Ma Sansou and they walked toward the sky. Ma Sansou shuddered with cold and quickly said, “Senior Martial Brother Evil God, if we leave now, King Geng will catch us right outside on the entrance! I think, we should stay…”

  “Stay? You want to spend the rest of your life here?” Zhong Yue asked.

  Ma Sansou replied timidly, “Sounds fine to me…”

  “Follow me, I still need you. Don’t worry, King Geng won’t be able to catch us.” As he finished, Zhong Yue tore a rift in the sky and strode out from the Song Realm.

  Left with no choice, Ma Sansou could only follow behind him. He prayed in his heart, Please, please, please. Please let King Geng still be on his way, please don’t come back so soon… We’ve just entered the Song Realm for days, and it’s merely less than half a day to the outside world. King Geng should still on his way here… right?

  Zhong Yue walked out of the Undying Flower with Ma Sansou behind him. Ma Sansou glanced around and heaved a breath of relief, King Geng is really not back yet…

  All of a sudden, the a huge rift cracked in the sky and a voice rumbled over from the void, “Senior martial brother, how are you and why did you kill my followers?”

  The voice rumbled like thunder and contained abstruse power within, Ma Sansou could feel his head getting dizzy and his Yuan Shen slowly drowning into the deep abyss of unconsciousness.

  However, Zhong Yue was completely unaffected by the voice, his psyche pounced into the void and reached to the other end of the space rift, “King Geng?”

  “Yes I am Chang Geng.” The voice replied, “Senior martial brother, can you explain why did you kill my followers? With your prowess, they are no much different than ants to you, I can’t see any interest for someone like you to kill the ants for no reason? Can you explain?”

  “Why should I?” Zhong Yue asked curiously, “Do I need a reason to kill in the Ancient Land of God Graves? King Geng, you are still a distance away and is only doing this in attempt to stop us from leaving. But it must be regretful that that things don’t always go as you expect them to.”

  “You can’t escape from me!” The void cracked open and a hand holding a flower with six petals reached out from the space rift. Shrouding around the flower was the power of Six Paths Reincarnation!

  The flower looked no different to any other blooming flower, even the hand was carefully holding it in fear of breaking it. Yet, it contained one of the strongest powers, as if a realm existed within the flower!

  The flower was struck toward Zhong Yue, and at that instant, countless images appeared in his eyes as it attempted to suck him into the realm within the flower!

  “What an amazing technique!” Zhong Yue praised. Even he couldn’t have done it!

  King Geng’s skill was too abstruse, the flower was real and was formed by
totem patterns, such a skill was already not far away from the level of Creator!

  Zhong Yue raised the Solar Divine Saber, the Six Paths Wheel emerged behind him and all of his prowess was converted into Pure Yang Qi that further enhanced the divine saber.

  He brought the saber down and cast out the【Sun Burst】, clashing with the incoming flower!

  A wave of blinding light burst out from the center of the clash as the two skills unleashed their powers. Zhong Yue’s body shuddered from the clash, he then turned the Solar Divine Saber into a saber sheath and proceeded in unsheathing the Metamagnet Divine Saber. The【Moon Tide】was cast out and merged with the power of the【Sun Burst】.

  Finally, the flower was slashed into halves!

  Then, the sabers flew up and turned into two dragons that lunged at King Geng’s hand.

  It was the【Dragon Shears】!

  King Geng’s hand quickly moved back into the space rift, he flicked his fingers over ten thousand times in the blink of an eye.

  Even though the【Dragon Shears】looked like just a pair of scissors shearing the opponent, the totem patterns in it were actually changing endlessly every split second. Each time King Geng’s fingers flicked, he would be able to stop the changes of the【Dragon Shears】.

  After all, the【Dragon Shears】were created by Feng Xiaozhong with one purpose only—to break the seals in the Fuxi blood. Thus, the changes that happen in the【Dragon Shears】were nearly endless. Zhong Yue had never seen anyone else being able to hold off the【Dragon Shears】, until today!

  King Geng’s hand returned to the space rift, and the【Dragon Shears】were forced back into the sabers once again.

  Zhong Yue suddenly stiffened up his face, the sabers turned into a sun and moon that orbited around one another, and they followed King Geng’s hand into the space rift.

  “Nice skill!” In the Ancient Land of God Graves, over a hundred Qi Practitioners centering around King Geng were rushing toward the site. All of a sudden, the void shuddered and King Geng returned his hand following by an appalling wave of saber will that slashed out from the void!

  At the instant the sun and moon slashed down, a huge Tai Chi Art appeared above them and stopped everything beneath it. The Qi Practitioners were stunned in mid-air, unable to move their Yuan Shen and mortal body, only able to watch helplessly as the saber will plummeted down at them!

  Cold sweat burst out from the hundreds of Qi Practitioners, but they couldn’t even move the totem patterns in their body, or even their psyche and arcane energy!

  The Tai Chi Art above them were turning slowly like a grindstone; countless saber rays like dragons rained down on the Qi Practitioners!

  Just a second before the saber rays swallowed the Qi Practitioners, King Geng who stiffened up his face as well suddenly praised. At that instant, starlight gathered around him and formed a mini galaxy around him. He stood above the galaxy as it moves beneath him.

  King Geng raised his hands and the galaxy moved up toward the Tai Chi Art.

  The space shuddered and the dimension cracked. Suddenly, the Tai Chi Art broke apart as well, turning into two saber rays that disappeared back into the space rift.

  On the other end of the space rift, Zhong Yue’s body shuddered violently and the two saber rays flashed into his Yuan Shen secret realms.

  “What is this skill?” King Geng asked at the same time. Zhong Yue turned and left, he grabbed Ma Sansou in his hand and flicked his finger to a corner of the palace where a stone pillar was crushed as a result.

  Then, he leaped and disappeared from the scene while his psyche rumbled into King Geng’s ears, “The【Dao Crusher】.”

  Chapter 670: Strongest Innate Spirit Body |

  “【Dao Crusher】?” King Geng startled, he praised, “What a nice saber art. The sun and moon halts the heaven and earth, the Yin and Yang traps the Yuan Shen, the Reincarnation ceases the Wu Xing and Wan Xiang, whereas the saber crushes the Dao. Although there is still plenty of room for improvement, it is truly appalling. Those who wield a saber are usually idiots but I see something different in him. He crushed the totem pillar I left in the palace, it seems like he noticed that I am observing him through that. What a cautious opponent.”

  It was only now that the Qi Practitioners could move, but their faces were still pale like snow. Zhong Yue’s third style of the【God Slaying Three Styles】, the【Dao Crusher】was far too strong for them to even put up a fight. It was truly a huge impact to the experts like them.

  “King!” One of the Qi Practitioners bowed and asked, “Who is he?”

  The Qi Practitioners centered around King Geng and continued moving to the site. King Geng mulled and said, “He shouldn’t be Li Tianxing, nor Shu Ye, let alone Fa Bisheng. After all, there is no need for them to fake themselves as a skeleton to fight with me. But since when did the Prison Realm have a skeleton Qi Practitioner?”

  “Skeleton?” Suddenly, one of the lady Qi Practitioners thought and stepped forward, she said, “My king, there is in fact a skeleton that has caused quite a ruckus recently. The skeleton is said to be a lower being that freed himself from the lower realm. They call him the Blood Bone Evil God. A sinistrous being that killed many in his hands.”

  “Blood Bone Evil God? A lower level being from the lower realm?” King Geng laughed as he shook his head, “He is definitely no lower level being from the lower realm, nor is he a god. He is just a Qi Practitioner like you and I. Although I couldn’t have stopped him from leaving, I was able to take a glimpse at his background. He is a Prison Realm Qi Practitioner, must’ve been teleported into the lower realm and turned into a skeleton in there. Amazing, it just proves his talent to be able to break free from the lower realm. I think I know who he is already.”

  The Qi Practitioners exchanged a look curiously, and King Geng said while smiling, “He is a human from the Left Fang Galaxy, the human Zhong Yue who defeated and beheaded the Reverse Emperor. It’s been said that he has the Sun Moon Twin Spirit and his saber arts are incredible. The sun and moon from the【Dao Crusher】that was just casted is a solid evidence to his identity.”

  King Geng mulled and said, “Furthermore, his saber styles are really incredible. Among everyone in the Prison Realm, only that human Zhong Yue could’ve done it. I am amazed, I have never expected the human race to be able to create such a talent.”

  “The Innate Sun Moon Twin Spirit Body is known as the second strongest innate spirit body, just slightly weaker than my Innate Galaxy Spirit Body. It is really amazing for him to be able to awaken both the sun and moon spirits. I heard that he is still in the True Spirit level and is able to remain undefeated even after exchanging four strikes with me, what a talent. If he cultivated to the level of Imminent Deity, he might just been strong enough to contend against my all-out strength. Of course, that’s only if you’re considering me in my current state.”

  King Geng spoke with the utmost confidence. He was also at the level of True Spirit just like Zhong Yue. He suddenly smiled, “If a talent like him can follow me, he’d be very useful. However, for the puny human race to have an extraordinary talent like him, he will surely be uneasy to tame. It seems like I still have to show him the unfairness of this world before he is willing to bow his head before me.”

  Abruptly, one of the young man stepped forward, he was fanning himself with a paper fan as he said, “King, do you still remember the story of the late Realm Monarch and the current Realm Monarch?”

  King Geng sterned his heart, while the young man continued, “The current Realm Monarch was captured by the six Realm Lords, but the late Realm Monarch saved him and gave him a high position in the Heaven, making him the only one that stands a position below the late Realm Monarch. However, as soon as the late Realm Monarch died, he stole the throne and made himself the ruler without even thinking about all that the Realm Monarch had done for him. Not only that, but he stripped the king off from your mortal body and banished the king to the Prison Realm. This human Zhong Yue was in
a situation just like the current Realm Monarch and the king as the late Realm Monarch, I am worrying that…”

  King Geng sneered coldly in reply, “Ease your heart, I am not my brother nor is the human Zhong Yue the current Realm Monarch. As long as he falls into my hand, I will take full control of his life! Heed my orders, all the Qi Practitioners in everywhere will search for this Blood Bone Evil God, I will repay those who notifies me of his position!”

  The Qi Practitioners nodded and quickly spread the news.

  The young man then asked again, “King, what about the territory…”

  “There is no need to go there anymore. I have more than one territory, it’s no big deal of losing one. Head back to the Yu Yang Palace, and we shall wait for further news.”

  …

  “Brat Yue, this King Geng is really stronger than you. He fought a distance away and used only a hand whereas you fought on the spot with full strength. Yet, he was able to fight back easily, even the【Dao Crusher】wasn’t really able to disturb him.” Xin Huo said while Zhong Yue was bolting away.

  He analyzed, “The last strike he cast utilized the starlights and formed into the phantom of a galaxy. This reminds me of a terrifying innate spirit body—the Innate Galaxy Spirit Body! The galaxy spirit comes from the galaxy that is worshipped by the living beings in it. Every star in the galaxy is akin to a god, and thus granting those with the Galaxy Innate Spirit Body the power of a million gods, it is truly terrific! However, the Innate Galaxy Spirit Body is extremely rare, only being able to be born after the death of a galaxy. Furthermore, the Galaxy spirit would usually die off before it could even travel out of its galaxy and reach to a host.”

  Zhong Yue then asked, “Xin Huo, is the Innate Galaxy Spirit Body stronger than the Sun Innate Spirit Body?”

  Xin Huo laughed, “Are there more living beings worshipping a single sun or an entire galaxy? Which do you think it is? The Innate Galaxy Spirit Body isn’t inherently stronger than the Innate Sun Spirit Body. However, it has an incredible advantage, and that is that its potential is nearly limitless. As each star resembles a power source to the Innate Galaxy Spirit Body, when in the high cultivation levels, his arcane energy would be so abundant that it had literally no end to it. On the contrary, the different sources of power means that the arcane energy is fairly hard to control.”
