Rise of Humanity

  However, her attacks were quickly nullified by Zhong Yue who chanted the innate godly language.

  As the Dao voice and the Dao language clashed, Zhong Yue groaned as he was impacted greatly to the point that his pace was disrupted. In his Innate Celestial Demon Tai Chi Stone Sentinel Maze, the 1,600,000 gods were also affected by the impact.

  Right away, the ship’s speed decreased and the female Imperial Emperor attempted to board the ship as she smiled softly. Suddenly, the ship trembled and it flipped upside down, with the dragon head facing towards the Imperial Emperor.

  From the dragon’s mouth spilled the innate godly language, which caused the female Imperial Emperor to flinch. Her skin showed signs of crumbling but not before she lost her balance and fell!

  Zhong Yue activated Shi Long’s Dao skeleton and forced her off but another Imperial Emperor with a tiger’s tail arrived. The Imperial Emperor immediately directed the heaven and earth’s Dao towards the ship and a tremendously powerful divine ray shot towards the ship in an attempt to immobilize it.

  The ship trembled before the divine ray, its speed gradually slowed down and after a laugh, the tiger tailed Imperial Emperor descended towards the ship’s deck.

  Seeing this, Zhong Yue unleashed a battle cry, using every ounce of energy in him to drive this ship, bestowing it with power that finally breached through the heaven and earth Dao’s net as he quickly flew away.

  “Don’t even think about it!”

  Long Zhi charged towards the ship and her tails immediately whipped towards the ship. Her nine heads chanted Dao language that turned into attacks towards the ship.

  Along with the gods in his Yuan Shen secret realms, Zhong Yue coughed out blood from the impact. But that did not stop him from controlling the ship to sever the nine tails with the innate wings. Then, they immediately charged out and left Long Zhi behind, but the other Imperial Emperors were already onto them and a huge hand grabbed onto the ship’s end.

  “Grab onto me! We must stop him from getting away!”

  The Imperial Emperor shouted and the others immediately grabbed onto him. With their combined power, they stopped the ancient ship before a vigorous trembling slowly traveled through their arms as the ship’s speed reached the peak.

  Hong long—

  The ship opened up a hole in the dimension, dragging them all inside and throwing them off their balance.

  The Imperial Emperors looked around after regaining their balance and they were all shocked by what they saw. A divine ray stretched all the way from the Dark Age all the way to the ship’s end just like an endless path!

  And right in front of the ship was the Heaven Suppression Palace.

  In this strange dimension, when they all looked at the Heaven Suppression Palace, they all felt that it was larger than before and that was not their hallucination for the palace was hanging up in the outer world, which caused it to appear small.

  Now, the palace was immensely huge, grand and special; the light path emitted from the ancient ship surrounded him and before this path, the Imperial Emperors felt they were extremely tiny before the palace and the ship.

  And they were Imperial Emperors, not the mention the strongest ones on that level; with their massive bodies and Yuan Shen secret realms, they were incredibly massive when they brought out their avatar!

  However, before the Heaven Suppression Palace and the ancient ship, they were extremely tiny,

  “Heaven Suppressing Palace disappeared!” exclaimed Long Zhi suddenly.

  They looked around right away and to their shock, the Heaven Suppression Hall which was supposed to be beneath them was nowhere in sight and it was replaced by endless stars, which were slowly distancing from them!

  “That is the Zi Wei Galaxy!”

  One of them shouted, “It’s getting further and further away! What is this place and where are we? How are we out of the Zi Wei Galaxy?”

  Right now, even when they were one of the strongest in this universe, they were confused at what happened.

  The light flow was taking them with it as it headed straight towards the Heaven Suppression Hall. It was a place no one had ever been and now, they were all being taken to this mysterious palace.

  The scent entered their nose again and the five Imperial Emperors were once again, mesmerized by the scent. Long Zhi smiled and said, “Catch up with them and we will get our hands on the herb, perhaps, we can even enter the mysterious palace and obtain items from the Dark Age!”

  Greed consumed them, driving them forward and that was when something even weirder happened; in the light flow, no matter how hard they flew, they couldn’t close the gap between them and the ancient ship.

  “It’s the light! The light from that strange ship is stopping us from getting closer!”

  “We can only catch up if we get out from the light flow!” shouted the “seventh”.

  He immediately leaped out, but immediately, he let out a shriek and horror consumed the other Imperial Emperors as they watched him being crushed by the power of time! His remains were then trampled thinly and glued onto the time flow!

  Then, just like Zi Wei Galaxy, the “seventh” slowly moved further away from them.

  “This ship is traveling in the flow of time!”

  The “second” immediately realized what happened and he shouted, “It’s going back in time, back into the prehistoric era!”

  Imperial Emperors like them were already starting to study the wonders of time, trying to decipher the mysteries in it and they all knew how scary time was; in order to return back to time, one must face the pressure from the spatial-temporal dimension and this person could not alter the past. If that person tried to alter the past, even if he was an Imperial Emperor, he would be crushed by the power of time and dimension!

  “In order to travel in the spatial-temporal dimension, we need something that does not belong to this dimension and this something is that ancient ship!”

  He looked towards the ship and said, “Just follow the light flow, don’t try to get out or you will end up like “seventh”. Once we arrive at the palace, we will be able to catch the little brat Yi.”

  “Then what about “seventh”?” asked an Imperial Emperor, “Will he be able to get back?”

  The “second” was confused and he shook as he could not answer this question for he too, had no idea what would happen to “seventh”. If he failed to return, he would probably become an image that drifted within the spatial-temporal dimension eternally.

  They followed the time flow and the outside became weirder; Zi Wei Galaxy was sometimes near and sometimes far away. Occasionally, massive and saint Imperial Stars would get close and there were even extremely mighty celestial being appearing before them and disappearing at the next second.

  Those were the brandings of the powerful beings that shook even the time and dimension!

  On the ancient ship, Zhong Yue relaxed himself and after dispersing Stone Sentinel Maze, he stood beside Yin Fanxuan while the 1,600,000 gods scattered around the ship and they looked at the unbelievable scene outside the ship.

  Zhong Yue then entered his mind into the copper lantern, passing the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror into the Six Paths Bead and he noticed 30 Amaryllises had already disappeared, and the Bi An Flower was showing signs of blooming.

  Seems like a period of time is still needed until Bi An is born.

  Zhong Yue thought with a relieved heart, The brothers… No, it should be him, not them! After his birth, I wonder how strong he will become? Will he be as strong as an Imperial Emperor or even a Heavenly Monarch? Heavenly Monarch might be a little bit too difficult… Such nice smell! I want to eat him! If I ate him….

  Suddenly, Yin Fanxuan’s flute softly played and Zhong Yue returned back to his senses. He immediately recollected his thoughts and at the same time, the gods looked towards the outside of the ship in shock; right now, marvelous images appeared outside the ship and they witnessed the birth of massive galaxies, how the p
owerful beings that even tremble the spatiotemporal dimension created new worlds and new galaxies!

  They were so huge and altogether, they lifted up the galaxies and changed the universe!

  It was a marvelous scene, a scene where they created worlds and gave birth to legends!

  Six Path Reincarnation, Six Path Worlds!

  Zhong Yue was shocked as they’d witnessed the 3,000 Heavenly Monarchs creating the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds!

  Chapter 907: The First Life |

  The image flashed before them quickly and disappeared again, hence, they only managed to catch a quick glimpse of how the Six Paths Worlds were created.

  Then, countless images flashed across their eyes and they all saw one after another unrivalled Heavenly Monarchs in their corresponding timelines. They saw the massive and grand wars, the gradual changes of the universe and the many Earthly Sovereigns Heavenly Monarchs.

  “Fuxi!”

  A Fuxi general among the Xian Tian Imperial Guard shouted, “I saw the ancestors of Fuxi Celestial Race!”

  What they saw was the history of the entire Earth Order Era, the Fuxi Celestial Race’s glorious era, and it was truly mesmerizing!

  Suddenly, everything changed and they witnessed the war that ended the Fire Order Era; a terrifying war that swept passed the entire universe like a plague, entirely destroying the Fire Order Era.

  However, this particular image flashed by too quickly and everyone did not have the time to properly examine, what caused the annihilation of the Yanzi Clan, the most powerful clan at that era.

  What followed next was the buried history, the proud civilizations of the Fire Order Era, and the figures of the Fire Order Era Heavenly Sovereigns Heavenly Monarchs and the majestic empire.

  Finally, they saw the creation of the Fire Order Era and that too, was a fearsome battle where countless lives were lost. The saw how the braves gave their lives for their dreams, which all caused the rise of the Yanzi Clan!

  In the dark universe, the flames of civilization lit up, illuminating the universe. The scene was more than amazing. It shook their souls tremendously and they wanted to cheer for their ancestors that mowed down all the adversaries that stood in their path so that the later generations could live in peace.

  And as they witnessed the fire of civilizations, tears built up in the eyes of the many gods; those fires were the start of civilizations, a world where the non-innate beings started to control their own fate.

  The ancient ship then sailed right into the Dark Age, an era where there were no civilizations except the wilderness. It was an era ruled by the innate celestial gods and innate demon gods.

  From here, they witnessed the birth of many legendary figures, and also their deaths.

  “Did this ship just bring us back to the Dark Age?” murmured Yin Fanxuan.

  Zhong Yue nodded and just as he was about to speak, the time flow outside of the ship started flowing in reverse and they returned to the Fire Order Era from the dark prehistoric era.

  The images they just saw reappeared, they returned back to the Fire Order Era where the many Heavenly Sovereigns Heavenly Monarchs rose and fell, then the Earth Order Era, the end of Earth Order Era and the start of God Order Era!

  “Look at that ship!”

  A god shouted, “Over there! It’s the same as our ship!”

  On the ship, the gods held their breaths and their vision glued onto the ship, which was also traveling in time and also headed towards the Heaven Suppression Palace.

  Seeing this, the many gods looked towards that ship with an empty mind.

  On the other side, the leader of that newly appeared ship was also a young man, with a beautiful lady standing by his side and the gods on the ship looking toward them mindlessly.

  That was another Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan!

  Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan felt a chill down their spines right away because they saw “themselves” in the time flow!

  Yin Fanxuan was confused and she asked, “Did we return to the Dark Age? How is this happening?”

  The exact same situation was happening on the other end.

  Upon noticing what happened and after seeing the four Imperial Emperors that were chasing the other ancient ship, Zhong Yue immediately understood what happened, he shouted, “That’s us in the flow of time!”

  The scene disappeared in a blink of an eye and everything outside the ship changed rapidly; the flames of war spread across the universe and everything happened in the war was extremely impactful!

  The war of thrones!

  It was the war of thrones that had yet to happen in their era!

  Yin Fanxuan suddenly saw herself and she shouted, “We are sailing towards the future!”

  In the image she saw, she became the queen and sat within a massive and grand divine palace, saw herself marrying a strang young man who was a Fuxi and on top of that, the Heavenly Monarch of the Fuxi Celestial Race!

  She was dumbfounded. That young man was how Zhong Yue really looked like, which she once saw and said he did not look as elegant as Mister Yi.

  Zhong Yue too, saw his future self, at a point where he had finally conquered the universe and become its ruler, creating his glorious era!

  The image disappeared and this time, Zhong Yue horridly saw himself being cut down. He was decapitated by a powerful yet mysterious existence; with an alluring and terrifying light that flashed across the scene quickly. His head was chopped off and his Yuan Shen was slain, which denied any chance for him to be revived!

  The era he created crumbled, and his followers and servants all died tragically in a chaotic war. Everyone was killed by the mysterious existence and his world was washed with their own blood!

  He even saw the death of Xin Huo and Yin Fanxuan!

  “I’ve lost….”

  Coldness shrouded Zhong Yue upon seeing his future; he lost, killed by someone when he was at the peak. His ambitions and dreams were denied!

  In the future, Fuxi was still nonexistent, Zhong Yue failed to save the humans and reverse the tragic fate of the Fuxi.

  Zhong Yue lost his will to fight right then and there, the image of the future that was shown to him was too daunting.

  Suddenly, a warm and soft hand slipped into his palm; the Yin Kang Clan’s Heavenly Lady who saw this tried to calm him down and pump confidence back towards Zhong Yue.

  Zhong Yue’s heart felt weak; everything he had fought so hard for had collapsed in an instant. In the future, he had lost everything, his conquest and his life. He failed to save the humans from the abyss, failed to revive Fuxi and even Xin Huo died alongside with him.

  It was a hopeless future.

  “This is not the future.”

  At his side, the beautiful lady comforted, “If you lose hope now, then everything you saw just now will become your destined future! If you knew about the future long ago, you would have lost hope from the beginning. With that, you and I would have never met, we wouldn’t have gotten married, you wouldn’t have built an empire and become the future Heavenly Monarch.”

  Zhong Yue’s eyes moved and his will returned back him, “You’re saying that what we saw is not real?”

  “I’m saying that it doesn’t have to be.”

  Yin Fanxuan gave him a warm smile and said, “After all, the future is still the future, nothing is set in stone, and things are still going as how you planned. Am I wrong? It can be very scary and disappointing to know our future beforehand but will the wise Mister Yi be defeated by some mere images?”

  Zhong Yue held onto Yin Fanxuan’s palm firmly and said with a relaxed smile, “You’re right. I was putting too much stock in the images. If the future is destined, then what’s the point of working hard? We might as well sit there and wait for death. What’s done is done but we can still alter the future! I won’t let that be my end!”

  Yin Fanxuan smiled and replied, “I won’t buy it too! You’ve not defeated me yet so how is that possible…possible for me to have a closer relationship to you.
”

  Zhong Yue burst out laughing, “Don’t worry, I will definitely beat you and I will throw you onto my bed!”

  Yin Fanxuan blushed and she rolled her eyes as the two had seemingly cleared the shadows on their mind.

  But in truth, as Zhong Yue looked towards the outside, he was still very much feeling the pressure of what he saw.

  Though Yin Fanxuan’s words brought him some comfort, he was still puzzled by what was shown to him.

  Did that mean that if he continued what he was doing right now, the scenes in the future would turn into reality?

  But he was also unsure of what would happen if he changed his plans.

  He knew that something must be done but what?

  What should be done in order to alter the tragic future?

  The scene outside the ship changed constantly and the timeline tangled together gradually; at certain times, a tip of the iceberg in their future was shown and at another time, they were shown their past, making it difficult for them to differentiate where the ship was heading towards, the past or the future?

  “It’s heading toward neither the future or the past.”

  Zhong Yue said out of nowhere, “It’s heading towards The Impossible World, the Heaven Suppression Palace. The Impossible World should be a world that is independent of time, which is why we are seeing so many strange things on our journey.”

  “The Impossible World?”

  Yin Fanxuan murmured in awe and she looked towards Heaven Suppression Palace which was now directly ahead of the ancient ship.

  They were getting closer and closer towards the palace.

  The scene outside of the ship was still changing and what was being shown now were prehistoric images that recorded things not known to the people and they quickly turned back to the future images, showing the future again.

  Image after image flashed by and Zhong Yue suddenly saw something.

  In that particular image, he saw an endless chaos where there was a fire ocean, seemingly the Jinwu Clan’s sacred ground.
