  Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched, Valley of Evil? Innate Evil Monarch? Another one that is from the same generation as the evil existence?

  The evil existence was just way too strong that he was beyond Zhong Yue’s imagination and Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was telling him that there was something on par with that evil existence!

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian smiled and added, “Don’t worry about Innate Evil Monarch. He may be strong but my teacher can deal with him. You don’t have to worry about Di Ming because there is me to deal with him. What the two of you are responsible is to destroy the obstacles in my path!”

  The duo nodded.

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian said again, “I am depending heavily on the two of you. King Yi will be in charge of the external affairs and Zi Guang internal affairs. If the internal is stable, then the external will not be impacted. I sincerely hope that you will both work together and stop fighting with each other.”

  Zhong Yue immediately smiled and replied, “I’m fine as long as he does not disturb or provoke me.”

  “Fine,” replied King Zi Guang after a moment of consideration.

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian then opened up a star map and said, “King Yi, please take a look. The Heaven Suppressing Prefecture is our frontline. If the other powers wish to invade us, they would have to remove the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture from their paths first, making the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture extremely vital for us. In your opinions, how much force do we have to assign to Heaven Suppressing Prefecture in order to protect it?”

  Zhong Yue took a look at the map, which had the entire landscapes of Zi Wei Galaxy recorded; countless divine stars shone brightly and one holo line highlighted the Xian Tian Palace’s territory area.

  There were approximately a thousand markers belonging to Xian Tian Palace in the map; most of them were linked with each another and everything suggested that Xian Tian Palace had already removed all the other powers in this area.

  Zhong Yue knew that the many monarch races were extremely wary of the humans, hence, the humans’ sacred grounds also had many other races’ sacred grounds placed nearby, forming a complicated power network and now, the star map Imperial Emperor Xian Tian revealed suggested that Imperial Emperor Xian Tian did not sit back during the war. As the world plunged into chaos, he too, acted by clearing the other powers around him.

  Now, Xian Tian Palace’s power was exactly like an eagle that stretched its wings forward and the Xian Tian Palace located right at the eagles’ heart while Heaven Suppressing Prefecture was the beak.

  Thus, Heaven Suppressing Prefecture was extremely important and it must not be lost at any cost; it could support the wings if necessary, making enemies that attack the wings suffer extreme losses instead of hurting Xian Tian Palace’s power.

  On the other way round, if enemies were to attack Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, reinforcements from the wings would arrive in no time.

  Now, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wanted either King Zi Guang or Zhong Yue to be stationed at Heaven Suppressing Prefecture.

  King Zi Guang, who was standing at the side, was also examining Heaven Suppressing Prefecture and he frowned. He too felt that things were a little bit tricky.

  Heaven Suppressing Prefecture was way too important; if they were to start a war with the other powers, the enemies were definitely going to tackle Heaven Suppressing Prefecture right away, making it a great challenge to safeguard Heaven Suppressing Prefecture and they could already foresee how much blood will be shed here!

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian said, “Zi Guang, if you were to guard Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, how many forces do you think you’ll need?”

  “As many as I can get!”

  King Zi Guang replied, “At least 5,000,000 armies or it’d be almost impossible to guard Heaven Suppressing Prefecture! In addition, I’d need at least 3 Imperial Emperor level existences to aid me!”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian had a scare and he frowned at this reply he received, which he found a little bit unpleasant, “You are asking too much. I may have Imperial Emperor level existences serving me but they all have their own assigned positions. Besides, if I gave you 5,000,000 men, I’d have to thin out the numbers in the other places. I can only give you 1 Imperial Emperor level existence and 1,000,000 men at most.”

  “What you ask for is too much!”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian then turned around to Zhong Yue and asked, “Mister Yi, how about you? How many men do you need? If what you asked is the same as Zi Guang, then forget about saying it out loud.”

  Zhong Yue stared at the map and after considering for a moment, he exhaled deeply and said seriously, “Sometimes, more men doesn’t equate to a better outcome. With my own men, the 8,000 Fuxi and the ancient universe’s humans, I will be able to protect the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture!”

  “Just that little? Do you not want more men?” exclaimed Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.

  King Zi Guang frowned and added, “Indeed, your men is not enough at all.”

  To answer their question, Zhong Yue enlarged the detailed star map, looked at the landscapes around Heaven Suppressing Prefecture and gave King Zi Guang a glance and said, “What I told you is more than enough! Your Majesty, if you grant me permission to command the armies stationed around Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, I could even support the wings!”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was very moved by this suggestion but he still hesitated, “Zi Guang asked too much and you asked too little and because you asked too much, I felt even more uneasy about this…. My dear advisors, you are making things too difficult for me.”

  King Zi Guang frowned as well since the number of men that Zhong Yue requested seemed way too little. This time, he did not object Zhong Yue because of personal affairs as Heaven Suppressing Prefecture was just too important of a locations that it must not be threatened at all!

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian remained silent for a long time before he said, “Mister Yi, Heaven Suppressing Prefecture must not be lost!”

  “If I lose Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, I will bring my head to you!”

  King Zi Guang on the other hand, quickly warned, “Mister Yi, this goes beyond our personal squabbles, please think this over….”

  “Alright! The decision has been made! I will pass the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture to Mister Yi and he will be in charge!” shouted Imperial Emperor Xian Tian as he slammed onto the table when he got up.

  “What else do you need?” asked Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.

  “The power to prosecute!”

  “Granted!”

  “The power to act before reporting!”

  “Granted!”

  “Whatever I decide, Zi Guang must not interfere!”

  “Granted!”

  “What I do can bypass Your Majesty for the time being!”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian hesitated but after a while, he said, “About this, don’t you think you have to tell me first….”

  Zhong Yue immediately said, “It takes a year to travel back and forth Xian Tian Palace and Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, reporting back to Your Majesty will serve no good but to impact the situation negatively.”

  “Fine, do it your way.” said Imperial Emperor Xian Tian hesitantly.

  “Then Your Majesty can start the appointment ceremony now!”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian immediately summoned the many officers and before their witnesses, he personally took out the army talisman and seal, bowed at Zhong Yue and said, “Heaven Suppressing Prefecture will be in your hands now!”

  In front of Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, Zhong Yue stood there proudly and confidently, bowed back as he took over the talisman and the seal and replied in a rumbling voice, “I will not fail you, Your Majesty!

  Chapter 885: Traitor Yi Escaping |

  Zhong Yue walked out of Xian Tian Palace and passed the edict to Fu Li, ordering the wild man back to the ancient universe to bring the Star Torrent Fortress straight toward to the Heave
n Suppressing Prefecture.

  “Fu Li, do not delay long. Seven years, is that enough for you to bring the Star Torrent Fortress?” Zhong Yue asked.

  “Mister Yi, rest assured!” Fu Li answered and left immediately.

  Zhong Yue brought the military stamp and seal and returned to the Jin Yun Sacred Land. There, the 8,000 Fuxi and a million gods were still nurturing the Stone Sentinel Maze. It was now already a Deity Emperor-level divine weapon, just a fine line away from ascending to the Creator-level weapon. Its power was incredible.

  With the million gods and the three Heavens surging their power to help improve it, the Stone Sentinel Maze was getting increasingly stronger day after day.

  At this rate, it would soon turn into a Creator-level divine weapon!

  The Stone Sentinel Maze was a treasure forged by Zhong Yue, as such, he still held the highest commanding rights to it. The eight scrolls – Qian, Zhen, Kan, Gen, Kun, Xun, Li, and Dui, each were different elements and thus, had different powers and uses.

  In order to forge Creator-level divine weapons, one must have a deep understanding of the Creator level. This was something Zhong Yue wasn’t lacking in at all. Although just a Heavenly Deity, he had cultivated six Innate Daos and his comprehension to the Creator level was no weaker than any other Creators!

  Thus, improving the Stone Sentinel Maze into a Creator weapon wasn’t impossible for him. However, it was impossible to bring it up to the level of the Imperial Emperor.

  This was because Zhong Yue’s understanding of the Imperial Emperor level was still too shallow, thus, he couldn’t have forged the Imperial Emperor weapons.

  Even so, being able to forge the Stone Sentinel Maze a stage higher to the Creator-level weapon was already a huge leap in strength. By then, the Stone Sentinel Maze would be brimming with the power of Creators, containing heaven and earth in itself; and each of the scrolls would have the mystical powers of Six Paths Reincarnations.

  Furthermore, although the Stone Sentinel Maze was composed of eight separate scrolls, it was in fact, a singular divine weapon in a whole. It may be in eight parts, but when all eight parts came together, it would turn into a powerful weapon with the united powers of all eight scrolls!

  Not only that, but the Stone Sentinel Maze wasn’t in its best form yet. Zhong Yue had something bigger in mind, that the Stone Sentinel Maze was just the outer layer centering to a core – the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art].

  If he used himself as the array and cast the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art], with the Dao powers of Yin and Yang, celestials and demons, he could combine the two and form the [Innate Celestial Demon Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Art]. The array’s power would undoubtedly increase tenfold!”

  Just how powerful would it be? Zhong Yue himself didn’t dare to imagine!

  After all, the [Innate Celestial Demon Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Art] wasn’t just the ordinary Stone Sentinel Maze composed of eight scrolls, but nine. When it fully cast its power, it would be like a Creator-level Zhong Yue!

  Zhong Yue in his Creator level, how strong was that exactly? He couldn’t say for sure.

  Now, inside of the Stone Sentinel Maze, Bing Rong, Qiu Yi, Huo Rong, Yu Rong, Wo Yun, Cang Ya, Tai Sui, and Li Hua were each leading a hundred thousand gods under their command. These eight Fuxi leaders were controlling the eight scrolls, continuously making changes and casting its power to the maximum. The eight scrolls made rumbling noises were clashing together while the gods were also lashing attacks on each other. It was no less vicious than a bloody war.

  Meanwhile, Chi Song was standing in the air above the eight scrolls, closely looking at the war zone, ready to take over the Stone Sentinel Maze to intervene when necessary and avoid any casualties among the gods.

  “Husband,” Yin Fanxuan came forth and welcomed him.

  She was now stronger than they last met, even emanating a kind of pressuring aura upon Zhong Yue. If one were to say that there were a handful some who could stand on par and or even defeat Zhong Yue at the same cultivation level, Yin Fanxuan would definitely be one of them!

  Moreover, Yin Fanxuan’s cultivation base was now imperceptible to him. Her affinity to the Daos grew even stronger from when they were in the Heavenly River. Zhong Yue couldn’t help but think of challenging her but stopped out of worry that he would be embarrassed being defeated by his wife in front of his subordinates.

  The Innate Saint Spirit Body was above all other ordinary cultivators, it wasn’t something that could be made up for by just hard work.

  “Husband has been busy working out there, you’ve even forgotten your home.” Yin Fanxuan chortled, “This time, are you going to come back only to leave the next second?”

  “Not really,” Zhong Yue told her of Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s decisions and his appointment, he said, “Now, I plan to lead the gods to the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture. This is the time where the phoenix leaves the bushes and soars in the high skies, the dragon leaves the pool and dives into the endless depths of the ocean, nothing will be able to stop my rise now! Accompanying the emperor is like staying beside a man-eating tiger. With Imperial Emperor Xian Tian around me, my powers are restricted and limits bounded my performance. But this time going far away to the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, I will be able to execute my own plans! Yinxuan, you should follow me to the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture too.”

  Yin Fanxuan frowned, “But Imperial Emperor Xian Tian may not let me leave, he’ll hold me hostage here.”

  “It’s no big deal.” Zhong Yue laughed, “Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is slow in the small matters and quick-witted in the important ones, if we leave now, he won’t be able to react fast enough to it. My only worry is King Zi Guang, he is quick-witted in both small and big matters. But if we leave right now, I can hold him off even when he is quick enough to react to this.”

  Immediately, Yin Fanxuan turned and left to pack their stuff, but Zhong Yue stopped her, he smiled, “There is no need to pack.”

  “No need?” Yin Fanxuan startled.

  Zhong Yue’s psyche rippled out and the whole of Jin Yun Sacred Land received his orders. Chi Song and the other eight Fuxi leaders have commanded the gods and stood above the Stone Sentinel Maze. With an order, the Stone Sentinel Maze hovered in the sky and its power burst out, swallowing the three Heavens away.

  These were top-tier Heavens, each was like an individual world itself with complete Six Paths Reincarnations in them. There were six galaxies in every Heaven and the Hell dimension that stacked over reality. This caused the Heavens to be incredibly heavy to bear.

  There were trillions of living creatures in each Heavens, they live in the six galaxies, they worshipped the masters of the Heavens. They are the source of the Heavens’ powers.

  However, these living creatures were mostly lowly beings, they weren’t any more prestigious than the humans and thus, it was hard to see the birth of any experts among them. For them, the Heavens themselves were the universes and those who created the Heavens were the one and only gods of creation.

  The only aspects that the Heavens were lacking from the Six Paths Worlds were the size, resources, and the massive amounts of spiritual energy to nurture experts.

  This was why the Heavens couldn’t be better than the Six Paths Worlds.

  But the Heavens too had their own advantages, that is – it could be used as divine weapons and also the controller’s source of energy.

  These three Heavens were created by Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, they were forged to a high level. And when they were granted to Zhong Yue, the controlling rights were also given to him and also Yin Fanxuan. Thus, although the Heavens were incredibly huge, they were still able to hide them inside the Stone Sentinel Maze and drag them along.

  “Husband, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian won’t allow us to bring the Heavens away, will he?” Yin Fanxuan was uneasy and she quickly asked.

  “He will. These three Heavens are a condition granted to me so that I will serve him. King Zi Guang will stop us, but he
can’t do much on this.”

  Zhong Yue kept the three Heavens and took out a totem pillar. He contacted Jiang Yiqi and gave some orders. Then, he kept the totem pillar and said, “Yinxuan, the carriage.”

  Yin Fanxuan cast out the Heavens Kirin Carriage and Zhong Yue held her hands as they boarded it. With a command, the million gods stood in formations and headed toward the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture.

  A short while later, King Zi Guang received words of King Yi leaving for the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture with the million gods of the Jin Yun Sacred Land. He exclaimed in shock, “So quickly?”

  “The military camps in King Yi’s Jin Yun Sacred Land are still there, nothing has been packed. He only left with the million gods, that’s why he can be this speedy.”

  King Zi Guang’s face changed slightly, he questioned, “The three top-tier Heavens given to him by Imperial Emperor?”

  “Taken away by him.”

  “Madam Yi?”

  “Madam Yi is also with him!”

  King Zi Guang’s face changed drastically, he summoned a Deity Emperor and ordered, “Qing Shu, quickly, catch up to King Yi’s forces and tell him to leave Madam Yi behind so she could safeguard Jin Yun Sacred Land! I will see the Imperial Emperor now!”

  Deity Emperor Qing Shu nodded and leaped out from the palace. He rode on a patch of verdant cloud and left like a flash of light.

  Whereas King Zi Guang quickly headed for the Xian Tian Palace.

  The Kirin carriage was traveling in godspeed, but there were after all, a million gods. Although they were casting the Stone Sentinel Maze in full power as they travel, their speed was still much slower than Deity Emperor Qing Shu’s.

  Four days later, Deity Emperor Qing Shu caught up to Zhong Yue’s Xian Tian Royal Guards, he shouted, “King Yi, please wait!”

  In the Kirin carriage, Zhong Yue smiled at Yin Fanxuan and said, “See, King Zi Guang’s trouble is here again.”

  As he finished, he conducted his voice directly to Chi Song and the Fuxi leaders, he told them to continue their journey.
