  “I wanted to go there anyway, how is that possible that I… Wait! This human messenger is indeed very suspicious! I was still thinking about it but ever since meeting with him, I’ve made up my own unconsciously! I was affected by him!”

  Zhong Yue’s expression changed right away and he immediately charged out from the palace and dove right into the Star Gate as he shouted, “Fanxuan, summon Fu Qizhi and Fu Yanshan to back me up!”

  In the next second, he was already at the fortress’ gates. He ordered the guards to lower the drawbridge and charged towards the plains. He layered his psyche all across the surrounding and started searching for the messenger’s location.

  Suddenly, his psyche tingled as he captured a stone tablet, which read, “I will be waiting for you at the front.”.

  He rushed forward, traveled in high speed for three days and throughout his pursue, there were a few stone tablets left behind, each stating that the messenger would be waiting for Zhong Yue at the front.

  Zhong Yue continued his pursuit and suddenly, he slowed down his speed; at the front, there was a celestial being writing something onto the stone tablet.

  Zhong Yue approached slowly and said, “What are you planning to write this time, my dear messenger?”

  That celestial being was the messenger that sent the scroll to him; now, he was holding a huge brush, writing wildly on the stone tablet and upon hearing Zhong Yue’s question, he suddenly kept away the brush and laughed, “Please, have a look, Mister Yi!”

  Zhong Yue looked towards this stone tablet and he noticed that unlike the other stone tablets, this one was much larger and the words on it were also different.

  “This is where Yi Feng will die!”

  It read.

  Zhong Yue moved his vision away from the tablet and at the next second, numerous Deity Emperors and Creators walked out, each with a gloomy expression as they surrounded the messenger.

  “Why did you come, Mister Yi?” asked the Heaven Court’s messenger with a smile.

  Zhong Yue replied, “Just wanted to know your name after seeing your talent.”

  Hearing this, the messenger bowed and replied in a serious manner, “Pardon my rudeness. I was rushing to deliver the Heavenly Monarch’s message and forgot to introduce myself. This messenger here is just a tiny pawn under Heavenly Monarch. My name is Mo Yin. Greetings, Mister Yi.”

  “Please, you don’t have to be so polite, Mo Yin.”

  Zhong Yue greeted back, “Mister Mo, you are helping the Heavenly Monarch organize the celebration, inviting the many lords in this world. If I may, could you please tell me your plans?”

  The Heaven Court’s messenger replied, “To have everyone cooked in the same pot.”

  Zhong Yue nodded lightly and said, “This tablet, please keep it for next time, today is not the day, Mister Mo.”

  Mo Yin looked towards the back and two human Imperial Emperors flew out, and Mo Yin nodded, “Alright, I will keep it for you, take it away!”

  A Heaven Court soldier then carried the tablet on his shoulder while Mo Yin bowed again, “I will be waiting for you at the Heaven Court then, Mister Yi. At that time, I will place this tablet on your grave and I will bring some fine wine to visit you.”

  Zhong Yue kept quiet and after a second, he laughed, “Mister Mo, I have some advice for you, intelligence may sometimes become ineffective before absolute power. You’ve spent too much on refining your intelligence but you forgot that power is also necessary to support your dreams.”

  Mo Yin was slightly stunned and other thoughts floated up in his mind; the Heaven Court’s Deity Emperors and Creators surrounded him as they all retreated. Halfway through their retreat, a door appeared and upon entering the door, Mo Yin, the Deity Emperors, and the Creators disappeared before the massive door crumbled into dust.

  Fu Yanshan and Fu Qizhi arrived a second later and upon noticing the ruined door, they quickly asked, “My lord, who is that?”

  “The advisor of the Heavenly Monarch.”

  Zhong Yue exhaled deeply and said, “He’s the one behind all this and the one that stopped Imperial Emperor Xian Tian from having both his celestial and demonic body go into cultivation. Most importantly, he is a human!”

  “A human?”

  Fu Yanshan and Fu Qizhi were both surprised and happy with Fu Qizhi immediately continued, “If he is a human, why doesn’t my lord recruit him?”

  Zhong Yue gave them a shook, “I don’t know if he is a real human or just another outsider that was reborn into the human race. Besides, so what if he is a human? Everyone has their own will, perhaps he thinks that serving under Heavenly Monarch is the best option.”

  Speaking of this, he inevitably thought of Consort Tian Si. She too, was a very talented human but unfortunately, she was serving another person. Hence, without knowing more about the details, he couldn’t simply place his trust in another party on the basis of their race!

  Zhong Yue returned to the fortress and thought, The humans are all talented. First, there is Tian Si, then Mo Yin and the others like Senior Martial Brother Feng Xiaozhong. What a pity, apart from Senior Martial Brother Feng, the other humans’ talents were mostly on intelligence, granting them only the capability of serving under their lords. However, without sufficient power, they still can’t alter the tragic fate of the humans in the end.

  With Fu Li’s speed that rivaled even that of Imperial Emperors, they arrived at Xian Tian Palace in a month’s time and delivered the letter to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian immediately summoned King Zi Guang and showed him the letter. The latter was furious after reading it, “This cunning Yi is trying to harm my life through the hands of others!”

  “Zi Guang, he said that he will go with you and if so, how can he harm you?”

  King Zi Guang pretended to be angry as he replied, “Intelligence is no match against absolute power! If the Heavenly Monarch wants to kill us, it won’t matter how smart you are! He must be plotting something when he asked me to go with him, maybe he will throw me to the Heavenly Monarch in exchange for a high post!”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian thought and said, “Mister Yi is in charge of the external affairs and you are in charge of internal affairs. You two can’t go together because if you both are absent, the internal and external management will be in chaos. You will stay to guard Xian Tian Palace and I will place you in charge of the army. I will just go with Mister Yi. Worry not, I will ask for a few precious items from my teacher to protect myself.”

  King Zi Guang laughed and said, “If you want to go, it is fine, my king. However, my king has to give out an order that all races under Xian Tian Palace can only send out messengers as representatives and their leaders must not attend the celebration.”

  Imperial Emperor Xian Tian nodded and said, “You have my word. After I leave, I will hand over the Xian Tian Palace to you, Zi Guang.”

  King Zi Guang nodded as he thought, The traitor Yi used a shady move to make Imperial Emperor Xian Tian accompany him so that the Imperial Emperor could protect him. This brat can fool the Imperial Emperor but not me! Whatever he said in the letter was to force Imperial Emperor to accompany him and he had to go or he will lose the support of the many heroes in this world. But why is he so enthusiastic about heading to the Heavenly Court? I wanted to have Imperial Emperor to order traitor Yi to go with him but now, he has saved me some work.

  His eyes blinked, Can the traitor Yi triumph over that advisor hidden in the Heaven Court? Anyway, I will be able to see the advisor’s abilities through their battle .

  Chapter 927: Magnificent Forging Skills |

  In the Heaven Suppression Fortress, the Heavens Kirin Carriage slowly moved out of the fortress gate while Hundun Yu sat at the door of the carriage with Fu Li controlling the horses.

  Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan, on the other hand, were sitting in the carriage as they all headed straight towards Zi Wei Imperial Star.

  This time, there were only four of th
em. Zhong Yue had no choice but to bring Hundun Yu along with them; after presenting the fruit to Zhong Yue, this guy had glued himself to Zhong Yue with the Fusang Branch in his hand. Luckily, this big guy’s quiet behavior made him easy to ignore.

  As for Fu Li, with his powerful strength, he was brought along as a bodyguard to protect Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan as the trip to the Heaven Court was bound to be a dangerous one.

  Yin Fanxuan had requested to tag along; the lady master of the King’s Palace was tired of staying in the fortress and was eager to meet other heroes.

  Right now, as long as there were no unreasonably strong gods like Imperial Emperor Xian Tian attacking the fortress, the fortress would be fine even if Zhong Yue was absent. Fu Qizhi, Fu Yanshan and the others were sufficient to defend it.

  The Heavens Kirin Carriage’s defense was extraordinary; ordinary Creators would not be able to breach it.

  They steadily moved towards their destination. Throughout the journey, Zhong Yue looked towards the outside, only to see the many sacred grounds still at war with each other. The situation was still as chaotic as it was.

  But the chaos did not spread to the monarch and sovereign races, which is not enough. They are after all, extremely rich in every aspect after years of consolidating their powerbase.

  Zhong Yue sat back down and with a thought, six light wheels emerged and started rotating around him while the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] appeared, accompanied by the sound of mysterious Dao languages.

  He was the one who created the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] and merged together the Celestial Dao, Demon Dao, and the Yin and Yang Daos. But now, it was no longer suitable to cultivate.

  Right now, he had achieved cultivating eight innate Daos; the Celestial, Demon, Yin and Yang, Lightning, Time, Space, and Yi. But the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] only contained four Daos, which resulted in a situation where when he practiced [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art], the other four Daos were unable to be cultivated at the same time.

  When he cultivated Innate Lightning, he had to cultivate the [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture]; when cultivating the Time and Space Dao, he has to cultivate the [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture]; when cultivating the Innate Yi Dao, he has to cultivate the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture].

  He was only able to cultivate the eight Daos by cultivating four separate arts. Which meant that Zhong Yue had to spend four times the effort compared to others in order to grow the eight Daos together.

  This greatly hindered his cultivation speed.

  Yin Fanxuan’s cultivation was extremely fast, far surpassing Zhong Yue’s. Apart from the Innate Saint Spirit Body’s powerful effect, another reason was that her art only needed to cultivate one type. What she cultivated was not the traditional monarch level heritage of the Yinkang Clan but the [Twenty-Four Secular Worlds Mystic Art] that she created on her own.

  And that was also why Zhong Yue did not dare to say he was able to win against Yin Fanxuan for certain even after his considerable growth.

  At this moment, Yin Fanxuan was already at the peak of a Heavenly Deity, her speed was even crazier than Zhong Yue’s and the most insane part was that the [Twenty-Four Secular Worlds Mystic Art] meant that she was cultivating 24 Daos, which was extremely insane that she was able to cultivate them all at such high speed.

  She too, had mastered quite an extent of the innate Deity Kings’ Dao languages and the amount Zhong Yue mastered was only 30 more than hers.

  All of this explained just how strong this lady was.

  If she also consumed the Chaos Divine Fruit and dueled with Zhong Yue, she would destroy Zhong Yue effortlessly.

  Hence, Zhong Yue very much wanted to get another Chaos Divine Fruit for her as he was very curious to see how strong she would be after consuming the fruit. But unfortunately, such a chance was very rare.

  I need to merge my arts together into one to increase my cultivation speed.

  Zhong Yue found himself in a quandary as the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture], and [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture] were all monarch level arts that required almost an infinite amount of time to completely master, let alone merge together. It was even harder than he could ever imagine.

  There were more than 100 arts of comparable quality in Xin Huo’s brain and among the many Heavenly Monarch arts, he only had Xin Huo teach him two of them because he knew that cultivating four arts at once was extremely difficult. If he was greedy and asked for all the cultivation arts, there would be no way Zhong Yue could improve anymore.

  He then continued to cultivate in the carriage as they proceeded to the Heaven Court. At the same time, he tried to calculate a way to merge the four arts together. And to his shock, after consuming the Chaos Divine Fruit, his cultivation speed has been increased to a terrifying level!

  As he activated his arts, his cultivation level increased tremendously, his totem Dao strengthened and widened and things that he did not understand before were now crystal clear to him!

  Zhong Yue changed into another art and to his joy, the result was the same!

  Now, cultivating four types of arts was even quicker than cultivating one art before!

  His cultivation level had increased tremendously, his Daos fortified and his energy surged across his six great secret realms. Within the secret realms, the Dao totem patterns evolved into the skies, earth, sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, exotic creatures, dragons, and phoenixes.

  He even vaguely felt that among these totem patterns that flew into the secret realms, there were some Daos recorded within the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] that did not belong to the Six Paths.

  Zhong Yue activated the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] and without him knowing, he had already cultivated these abnormal Dao totem patterns. These totem patterns were incompatible with the six great secret realms and they flew right into the closed secret realms, making them very likely to be the power nourished in these secret realms.

  His Time and Space Dao were also constantly nourishing the Space Secret Realm and the Time Secret Realm hidden in his body, allowing them to grow stronger.

  However, as long as these secret realms were not opened, using the power in them would only be a fat dream for him.

  The Heavens Kirin Carriage traveled at a constant pace but even so, its speed was so still fast, enough to compare with Zhong Yue’s flying speed. As time passed, they were getting closer and closer to the Imperial Star.

  Zhong Yue then took this rare peaceful time to cultivate with Yin Fanxuan; in this period of time, he had improved greatly and he was at least fifty percent stronger than before.

  His Innate Secular World was refined to a very high level; in the Innate Secular World, Zhong Yue separated about 10,000 himself out, continuously trying to find a way to merge the four ultimate arts. Inside the Secular World were endless totem patterns formed from the Yin and Yang Lines while the Dao languages rumbled.

  Zhong Yue glanced at Yin Fanxuan who was also dwelled in her cultivation as he thought, Now that my strength increased by fifty percent, will I be able to win against her?

  Just as he was thinking about his chances, a loud hammering sound came from nowhere and it felt like the hammered right on their heart.

  Then Fu Li was heard shouting, “My lord, there are two old man smithing right at our path!”

  Zhong Yue opened the door and when he looked forward, he saw a blazing divine fire that lit up half of the sky, the fire in the furnace was brighter than a billion suns; two shirtless old men were setting up the fire and hammering a piece of metal in it.

  As the divine fire raged, the space around the furnace started melting down but even so, the piece of metal was still too stubborn to be melted.

  “Halt.” said Zhong Yue softly.

  The Heavens Kirin Carriage stopped gradually and Zhong Yue walked out of the carriage with Fu Li and Hundun Yu behind
him. In the carriage, Yin Fanxuan became uneasy upon hearing smithing noise, causing her to awake from her cultivation. She also walked out of the carriage.

  As Yin Fanxuan looked at the two old men in surprise, Zhong Yue was already at the furnace, observing the smithing, only to notice that the old man who was smithing used a clamp to hold the metal piece and was hammering it strongly with a massive hammer.

  Zhong Yue was moved by this as when the hammer landed, it turned into wonderful Dao techniques; the hammer felt like it had created a whole new world and within this world was a giant equipped with a massive hammer, slamming it everywhere with a hammer technique so wonderful and so powerful that it left Zhong Yue breathless.

  Fu Li was also shaken by this; with his rich experience and knowledge, especially as an expert in body techniques, Fu Li saw much more than Zhong Yue in the old man’s hammer technique; the flow in his blood, energy, movements in his muscle and veins were just like a gushing water of Dao that was extremely wonderful.

  Yin Fanxuan also saw the wonders in this hammering and she quietly tried to decipher the hidden wonder behind it.

  Zhong Yue then looked towards the other old man who was controlling the fire, who seemed to have been annoyed at how inefficient the bellow was. He threw it aside and started blowing wind into the furnace with his mouth. In an instant, the already raging fire turned even more aggressive like it was going to melt everything!

  That breath contained endless changes of wind and fire, and the two Daos were all at the peak!

  Such wind, such fire! Such an excellent hammer technique!

  While everyone was amazed by the hammering, there was an odd one; Hundun Yu stood there with a confused expression, holding the tree branch in his hand and remained unwavering at the techniques displayed by the two old men.

  Dang—

  As the hammer slammed into the metal on the anvil, the loud din shuddered their Yuan Shen and mortal body.
