And outside of Imperial Star, the powers in the Zi Wei Galaxy also went after these innate gods, further stirring up the already chaotic situation.
Not long later, the Heaven Court’s situation died off gradually as the 36 innate gods were all recruited.
As for Heavenly Monarch Di Ming, who was, after all, the current Heavenly Monarch, he recruited the most innate gods while the others only managed to recruit one or two. The recruitment in the Imperial Star, however, was unknown. But it was most likely that the Heavenly Monarch recruited more.
“Go! Reproduce!”
Casting aside the chaos out there, right now in Zhong Yue’s mind was a voice that constantly bugged him; the little flame, Xin Huo, pretended to be Zhong Yue’s inner voice and constantly urged him to reproduce, disrupting Zhong Yue’s mind greatly. It almost made have relations with Moon God but he was too afraid to do so.
“Mister Yi, our Titing Clan’s Heavenly King Altar has arrived.”
One day, a letter from Ti Mobei arrived, “Heavenly Monarch knows about the matter of the Board of Future Monarchs. After becoming known to the Heavenly King Altar, he gave out an order to have us compete in the birthday ceremony to decide who is the strongest among us.”
Zhong Yue frowned and at the same time, Mo Yin paid a sudden visit. After conversing about some irrelevant things, Mo Yin transmitted a message into Zhong Yue’s mind before he left, “Mister Yi, the Heavenly Monarch will be sending out a True Deity level innate god to kill you through the competition.”
Zhong Yue’s heart skipped a beat but Mo Yin was already gone.
Chapter 949: InvincibleTranslator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales |
The Heavenly Monarch will be organizing the Board of Future Monarch personally and wants to kill me through a newly recruited True Deity level innate god?
Zhong Yue remained silent. Mo Yin’s purpose here was to tell him this. But what made Mo Yin want to inform him about this?
But one thing was for sure. Though Mo Yin would not join Zhong Yue, he would at least not be hostile toward him anymore, which was a good thing.
“A True Deity level innate god? That’s rare.”
After telling Yin Fanxuan about this, the lady from the monarch race said, “Innate gods, they possess overwhelming power since birth, most of them are inherently Deity Overlords and Deity Emperors; it’s rare to see True Deity level innate gods. Sister Moon God is an innate god herself, why don’t you ask her? She should know more about this field.”
Zhong Yue immediately sought for the Moon God. But of course, Yin Fanxuan was there with him.
“Innate gods are separated into two different types. The first type is those that were born from the pure and condensed Dao of the heaven’s and earth’s sacred ground. These ones are superior to the other type. The other type is those that were born from worship like myself. We are weaker than the first type.”
Moon God gave off a very calm aura as if nothing in the world could waver her mind. But at the same time, she also emanated a feeling of indifference to everything in the world. “Based on what I know, there are fewer and fewer innate gods that belong to the first category. In recent years, the only innate god birthed by the heaven and earth was Mu Xiantian. On the other side, more and more innate gods are being born from worship. But then again, this type of innate god was further divided into two types.
Mu Xiantian was the last innate god birthed by the heaven and earth in these years?
Zhong Yue was slightly staggered.
With a soft voice, Moon God continued to explain the differences among the innate gods to them.
The first type was called the All Gods, they were birthed from worship and were usually seen in planets with more races.
Because they were birthed by worship, the All Gods usually inherited all beings’ mixed emotions. When the mortals worshipped the gods, they usually did so with a certain intention, since they would only typically worship gods if the gods were useful to them.
For those who worshipped evil gods, they carried ill intent and so worshipped the evil gods to do evil deeds.
Those that worshipped demon gods sought only chaos and destruction. They wanted to use the demon gods’ power to destroy.
Different motives and intents during worship manifest themselves in the innate gods once they are born. As for the Moon God, she represented the beauty and purity within the hearts of the Ancestral Star’s denizens.
The Sun God, on the other hand, represented power, light, and fertility that is sought by all beings. Due to the purer motives in all beings, there were less impurities in the Sun and Moon Gods, which granted them more space for improvements as compared to the other innate gods.
The Moon God continued, “The other type are the Race Gods. They are innate gods birthed by collective worship of an entire race, like the Mountain Gods and so on.”
This type of innate gods was endowed with the singular most desired element of a race.
Li Yang and Wu Dulang were both Race Gods. Li Yang’s clan called themselves the descendants of the Chao Sun. Hence, they worshipped the Chao Sun and birthed Li Yang from the sun.
As for Wu Dulang, his race addressed themselves as the descendants of a great demon god called Wu Du. Thus, they worshipped Wu Du and gave birth to Wu Dulang.
When the Race Gods were birthed, they usually possessed higher cultivations. But given the different motives the races worshipped for, the Race Gods were much more restricted compared to the first type.
“Usually, when innate gods are birthed, they are usually born as Deity Overlords, Deity Emperors, and on rare occasions, True Deities, like myself.”
Moon God added, “The lower the level you were born in, the greater your potential and the fewer restrictions you will face in the future. Conversely, the opposite also holds.”
Zhong Yue nodded at her words. While it seemed extremely good to be an innate god, it wasn’t without restrictions.
The difficulty of exceeding this limitation was extremely difficult.
While it was considered fast for the Moon God to cultivate into an innate Deity Overlord from an innate True God, she also took at least 600 years to do so. That was even when she was a very pure innate god.
In other words, the other innate gods needed even more time to achieve this!
Yin Fanxuan turned serious and she said, “And this True Deity that served Heavenly Monarch Di Ming….”
“His name is Zhu Xie, an evil All God that came to life 300 years ago in the ancient Zhu Xie Star.”
Moon God answered, “Zhu Xie Star is a land gathered with fiends from all races. The evil gods that had no more room in Zi Wei, 3,000 Six Paths Worlds and the ancient universe will gather around there to fend off their enemies. The mortals there worshipped evil gods and after some time, Zhu Xie was born. Soon after his birth, he was brought to Bi Luo Palace to cultivate. The one that was recruited by the Heavenly Monarch is most likely him. Both of them have relationships that could be traced back to an extremely dangerous and sinister existence.”
Zhong Yue’s heart thumped, “And this evil existence is….”
“From what I heard from Mister Bi Luo, there is a sealed divine eye in Mu Xiantian’s forehead and that was the doing of this dangerous sinister being. He is probably a Deity King from the Dark Age, one that is from the same generation as Mu Xiantian’s teacher.”
Moon God added, “Whereas for Zhu Xie who was Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s junior martial brother, wasn’t it natural that he is recruited by the Heavenly Monarch?”
Zhong Yue had goosebumps all over her body, as for the first time ever, he realized that the war for the throne was much more dangerous as he thought!
The Heavenly Monarch’s junior martial brother and an innate evil god, the titles on Zhu Xie were extremely huge. It really was a very cautious move from the Heavenly Monarch by having Zhu Xie kill him in the competition!
Yin Fanxuan then asked, “And this Zhu Xue’s strength?”
“He cultivated Bi Luo Palace’s arts and techniques but also received the ancient universe’s sinister being’s heritage so he is stronger than me when I was first born into the world.”
Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched as he recalled the time when Moon God was born into the world. As soon as the Moon God was born, she effortlessly defeated the grand ancestor of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race and retrieved the Moon God’s innate Qi stolen by the old ancestor!
Back then, she did not kill him and the grand ancestor’s strength was on the Deity Emperor level!
As a True Deity, Zhu Xie was truly one to be feared for he possessed power three times that of a Deity Emperor!
Time passed slowly and it has gotten closer to the birthday celebration. The peace in the Heaven Court was no more as the many powers discussed on the innate evil god named Zhu Xie who was going to take part in the True Deity Board of Saints’ competition.
In these few days, he had challenged the top hundred in the True Deity Board of Saints and tasted only victory!
His fame grew as did his rank. In nine days, he had defeated 99 True Deities!
Those that were challenged by him did not manage to make it through three attacks. They were either defeated in a blink of an eye, or suffered heavy injuries or even death!
These True Deities were all from the imperial, monarch, and royal races. They are viewed as important talents, but now, about 30 of them have died in Zhu Xie’s hands. The races of these victims were enraged and they immediately planned on taking him out!
But news came out that Zhu Xie was the Heavenly Monarch’s junior martial brother and this news immediately extinguished the anger of these races!
“Mo Yin created the True Deity level Board of Saints and the one ranked highest on this board is a demonic race from the ancient universe, Yang Guanyuan of the Yanghou Clan. He is the only one at the True Deity level that can perform the Six Paths As One!”
Ti Mobei and the other Heavenly Deities who invited Zhong Yue to observe the battle said, “Today is the day Zhu Xie will be challenging Yang Guanyuan!”
With a deep tone, Yang Fengping said, “This battle had garnered a lot of attention from the Heaven Court. From what we Zhongyang Clan’s old Imperial Emperor said, this battle signified the battle between the most outstanding disciple of both Zi Wei and ancient universe! If Zhu Xie triumphed against Yang Guanyuan, then its the victory of Zi Wei Galaxy over the ancient universe and vice versa!”
Jinti Clan’s Jin Buhuan laughed, “But there is nothing to be proud of when the innate evil god won a prenate god?”
Zhong Yue then revealed an explosive piece of information at this time, “Zhu Xie is from the ancient universe.”
Everyone’s eyes widened and they choked on their breath for a split second.
“An innate god from the ancient universe dueling with the ancient universe’s postnatal gods… No matter which side won, our Zi Wei Galaxy’s sovereign, monarch, and royal clans are all inferior…” mumbled Ti Mobei.
Tianyuan Clan’s Yuan Mie then explained, “Zhu Xie is coming right after Mister Yi. Am I right?”
With a nod, Zhong Yue confirmed, “Yes, he is sent to kill me.”
Ti Mobei then said, “If he defeats Yang Guanyuan, then he will be taking part in the Board of Future Monarch’s ranking competition.”
Everyone fell into silence and Pan Xu laughed, “Board of Future Monarch and Mister Yi’s competition with an innate god, I’m already excited before this battle even start!”
Yang Fengping let out a breath and said seriously, “The more I learn about innate gods, the scarier they became! At the same level, innate gods are undefeatable but Mister Yi from Xian Tian Palace that I know is also unrivaled!”
Lilian Lingyu then said softly, “When the undefeatable runs into the unrivaled, whose legendary streak will be ended?”
The many Heavenly Deities felt their blood boiling hot and Ti Mobei burst out laughing, “The battle between Mister Yi and Zhu Xie is the real battle between the outstanding gods from the Zi Wei Galaxy and ancient universe! How exciting!”
Tian Xuanzi, however, poured cold water onto them by shouting, “Garbage! They are innate evil gods and reborn innate gods respectively. Both are from the ancient universe so is there even a need to be that excited? I am different, however, I am a magnate born and raised in Zi Wei Galaxy!”
The others immediately shouted back angrily, “Mister Yi was born in our Zi Wei Galaxy so he is considered as one of us, not one from the ancient universe anymore!”
Zhong Yue remained silent as little did they know that this so-called reborn innate god actually came from the forsaken world, the first Six Paths World!
The battle between him and Zhu Xie was actually a battle between the weak human race and the lofty innate gods!
Chapter 950: I Must Hack Him To Death! |
Before the battle between Zhu Xie and Yang Guanyuan started, the entire Heaven Court was already very lively; this battle was viewed as the battle between the strongest postnatal True Deity and the strongest innate True Deity, taking place in the Heavenly Beast Garden.
The Heavenly Beast Garden was the place the Heaven Court bred and nurtured the monster races. These monster races were raised to be the Heaven Court’s mounts and more than half of the soldiers and generals’ mounts came from Heavenly Beast Garden.
Although the monster races did not have a high position in the world, as one of the larger sacred grounds in Heaven Court, the entire Heavenly Beast Garden was still superior to some sacred grounds out there. There were also top tier monsters that managed to cultivate to a very high level, they were definitely not lacking Imperial Emperor level monsters!
Some of these greater monsters even had their very own Heavens dangling in the skies above Heavenly Beast Garden.
This place was vast and rumor had it that at the beginning of the God Order Era, the monster race’s monster monarch tried to vie for the throne against Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan. The two then placed a bet that if the monster monarch won, Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan had to step down from the throne, and if the monster monarch lost, he would become Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan’s mount.
In the end, the monster monarch lost, and as per their bet, he willingly became the Heavenly Monarch’s mount. As time passed, the universe was united by Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan. Once there was no more war, Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan then set the monster monarch free into the mountain, which later on became the Heavenly Beast Garden.
After entering this mountain, the monster monarch organized and united the monsters in Zi Wei Galaxy, turning this place to a breeding field that raised mounts for the Heaven Court.
“In that era, legends had it that two monster monarchs were born and shocked the world with their presence.”
Zhong Yue, Yin Fanxuan, and the others boarded a warship that later sailed into the air. Around them were various sized warships all carrying magnates from the many races in Zi Wei. Yin Fanxuan said, “The other monster monarch called himself Monarch Tian Yao. At that time, while there were a lot monarch level beings at that time, many races still did not have their very own monarch level expert, hence, the monster race drew a lot of attention when they had two monarchs. Shame, the Zi Wei’s monster race did not become a monarch race with their monarch becoming someone else’s mount. However, Monarch Tian Yao severed ties with the monster race in Zi Wei and traveled into the ancient universe, turning the monster race there into a monarch race.”
The monster race was just slightly above the human race but there were also great individuals among them that bathed in blood for their race’s future!
In the ancient era, the two monster monarchs made different decisions, which resulted in different endings.
One chose to be a mount and because of that, the future generations were all mounts to the gods in Heaven Court.
The other chose to become a proper monarch in the ancient universe, ending up turning the ancient universe’s monster race into a monarch race and with th
at, they were able to stand tall.
Those who choose to be a slave will have the future generations to be born as slaves. Those who chose to stand up will have the generations after them to be freed from slavery. The human race must not have someone with great power and a feeble mind or it will only bring disaster to the human race!
Zhong Yue thought, If there really is someone like that, no matter how talented he is, I will cut him down!
The Heavenly Beast Garden was huge; there were countless mountains and monster gods scattered everywhere. The palaces built by them could be seen from time to time.
As that monster monarch’s descendants, they had ruled and managed the Heavenly Beast Garden. But every time, whenever there was anyone that requested for a mount from them, the monsters didn’t dare to show any disrespect at all.
Given how grand the battle between the two young True Deities was, the monster leader in the Beast Garden had already evacuated the monsters around, clearing out a field for the two True Deities to prevent unnecessary casualties.
Far away, Yang Hou Clan’s Yang Guanyuan was already at the scene but the challenger, Zhu Xie was nowhere to be found.
A battle between the innate gods and postnatal god was a very rare one, thus, there were a lot of spectators today. Among them were some of the higher-ups in the Heaven Court’s army.
After all, there were barely any postnatal living beings that actually rivaled an innate god.
But now, it was truly exciting that there was actually a postnatal god that could standoff with an innate god!
“Where is Zhu Xie?”
Suddenly, Yang Guanyuan asked loudly, “You challenged me but you are not here yet even after such a long time, did you chicken out in the last second?”
After a few seconds, seeing no one respond to his question, Yang Guanyuan smirked and walked away while laughing, “Not showing up after challenging someone to a fight? Do you think I will wait for you just because of who you are? If you want to fight, show yourself. But if you think you can stall for time, then I will not waste my time with you.”
