“But my disciple will only be married to the number one in the board.”
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu striked again.
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s expression darkened again; if Zhong Yue does not participate, then Zhu Xie will become the champion on the board, which means Jin Hexi will be married to him and as a result, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu will end up in an alliance of marriage with the Heavenly Monarch, which was the most undesirable situation!
Originally, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wanted Zhong Yue to back off as if Zhong Yue became the board leader, he would become a threat to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian. But Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was forcing him to allow Zhong Yue to compete!
“Mister Yi, reveal your Innate Celestial Dao please.”
After a moment of consideration, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian said, “I will help you raise your Innate Celestial Dao to the Imperial Emperor level. It might not help you win against Zhu Xie, but at the very least, it will help you be able to fight on equal grounds with him.”
Chapter 952: Borrowing Others' Intelligence |
Zhong Yue did as he was told, and after a careful examination, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian laughed, “This is different from what I learned. You lack something.”
His energy then started surging towards Zhong Yue’s Innate Celestial Dao endlessly. After some time, the Innate Celestial Dao was enhanced into the Creator level. But his knowledge was not taught to Zhong Yue at all.
“Mu Xiantian, you are holding back.”.
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s eyes rolled and he grinned, “Mister Yi is your trusted servant but you hold yourself back. You did not raise his Innate Celestial Dao to the Imperial Emperor level as you said you would. No wonder you are called a sissy by all of us. How are you expecting your servants to remain loyal to you if you are not treating them sincerely!”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s expression was a little stiff and he replied, “If I forcefully raise his Innate Celestial Dao to the Imperial Emperor level, it will impact my cultivation level. Besides, it’s not like Mister Yi fully unleashed its power if I did. But now, since you insist, I will just grant you your wish, Senior Martial Brother Jin Wu.”
He mustered his energy, and sometime later, Zhong Yue’s Innate Celestial Dao reached the Imperial Emperor level while Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was slightly weakened as it took quite a toll on him.
Though he was an innate god, his level was still on the Imperial Emperor level, which was a level lower than innate gods like Celestial Monarch Jin Wu that had achieved the monarch level, making it quite tiring to boost Zhong Yue’s innate Dao into the Imperial Emperor level.
“Are you not going to share some of your understandings of the same Dao with him?” asked Celestial Monarch Jin Wu again.
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s expression froze again and he explained calmly, “My understanding will only bring negative effects to mister Yi. Innate gods had always had difficulty in breaking free from the restrictions. I fear that my own restrictions will be spread to him if I share my understanding with him.”
“How petty,” commented Celestial Monarch Jin Wu.
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian choked and the furious Imperial Emperor retaliated, “Then did you share your understandings in Innate Tai Yang Dao with him?”
“No, he merely agreed to marry my disciple, how can I share my knowledge with him before an official marriage even takes place?”
Then, ignoring the angry Imperial Emperor, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu turned to Zhong Yue, “This is as much as both of us can help you. If you are strong enough, then these two innate Daos will improve alongside you. But if you are weak, then you will not be able to unleash the innate Daos full power.”
Zhong Yue thanked them sincerely for both of them had helped him more than he could ever wish for; though there was a risk of damaging his talent by doing so, Zhong Yue did not suffer any losses in the end.
The boost in both the innate Daos were very similar to when Fu Shang raised Zhong Yue’s Innate Yi Dao to the Imperial Emperor level.
While the innate Daos strength increased drastically, they were still not fully in control yet, hence, it all depended on Zhong Yue’s very own capability.
“Mister Yi, if you need something else from me, please feel free to ask,” asked Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
Zhong Yue thought for awhile and with a light flickering in his eyes, he asked, “May I have permission to borrow both Imperial Emperor Xian Tian and Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s psyche for a moment?”
“I don’t mind lending my psyche to you but I can’t guarantee this pretty one here would do the same,” replied Celestial Monarch Jin Wu after he exchanged a glance with Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
Upon being roasted by Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, the angry Imperial Emperor Xian Tian smirked, “If you can, why can’t I? Mister Yi, just feel free to do anything you want!”
Zhong Yue let out a relieved breath and he smiled, “I want to research a technique but because of my limited intelligence, I failed to continue any further. If I have both of your help, perhaps I will be able to boost my progress massively. Please hold for a moment while I excuse myself.”
Zhong Yue then left the scene and not long later, Yin Bokang showed up, greeted both Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, “I am Yinkang Clan’s clan master, I am here at my son-in-law’s request.”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian dare not drop his manners and he quickly greeted back but Celestial Monarch Jin Wu merely gave Yin Bokang a nod while he remained seated.
This was because Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was many generations older than him; back in the days, he was from the same generation as the Yinkang Clan’s monarch and Yin Bokang was just a junior to him.
Not long after Yin Bokang sat down, Fu Li arrived and greeted the trio, “I’m here under my master’s order.”
Not long later, another dream-like lady arrived, cold and distant, she seated and nodded at everyone on the scene, “Senior martial brothers.”
Yin Bokang and Fu Li, however, closed their eyes as they dared not look at her.
“The Innate Moon God is here too?”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was surprised and he murmured, “So many powerful ones here… What is Mister Yi planning to calculate?”
Though there were only a few of them, there were already three innate gods among them. Among the three innate gods, two were considerably monarch presences. With the addition of an Imperial Emperor and a Creator, their combined power may not be strongest throughout history but they could now walk pretty much everywhere arrogantly in this era.
But now, Zhong Yue was nowhere to be seen, which meant that he was still visiting friends and trying to get more help from even more magnates.
“Hahahaha. Greetings, dear senior martial brothers!”
Laughter could be heard coming from a distance away and the second person-in-charge of the Juling Clan, Ling Zheng entered the door with a wide smile, “I am here to help a bit with Mister Yi!”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s expression changed and he immediately welcomed, “Relative by marriage, please have seat!”
Suddenly, a footstep was heard and an old voice said, “Zhongyang Clan’s Yang Shuiyun, greetings, dear senior martial brothers.”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was shocked as this Yang Shuiyun was the second in command in the Zhongyang Clan and he too, agreed to help Zhong Yue!
“Lilu Clan’s Lu Qianqiu, greetings, dear senior martial brothers!”
“Leizhe Celestial Race’s Chuo Long, came under Mister Yi’s request! Is there a seat for me?”
Everyone seated and suddenly, a voice that disrupted the atmosphere sounded, “Hahahaha, everyone, there is no need to stand up! Sissy, you don’t have to stand up too!”
Everyone in the Six Imperial Palace felt uneasy. That was when Demon Monarch Yang Hou walked in and sat right between Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and Imperial Emperor Monarch. He then removed his shoes and started sc
ratching his feet.
He then smelled his hands and said, “Li Yang came to me and asked me if I want to take revenge for my disciple. I said yes and he told me to come here. Where is the brat Li Yang?”
At this point, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s expression returned to normal. But inside, he was surprised that Zhong Yue actually managed to get Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s aid. With that, there were already 5 innate gods here and four of them possessed monarch level strength!
While Chuo Long and Imperial Emperor Xian Tian were not monarch levels, their strength was on par with them and they were all extremely difficult to deal with!
At the same time, Zhong Yue was in the East Heaven Palace and requested to see Goddess Shen Hou only to be told by a Huaxu Clan’s lady that Goddess Shen Hou was still visiting at Goddess Queen Monarch’s.
Seems like I can’t gather the power of five monarchs.
Zhong Yue was a little disappointed and he immediately returned to the Six Imperial Palace, greeting and thanking everyone for their aid.
Everyone in the palace immediately stood up as they greeted back, and Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was surprised to see Celestial Monarch Jin Wu standing up as well.
Demon Monarch Yang Hou then laughed, “My disciple lost and you might not be able to win. However, if you beat Zhu Xie, I would be partially honored as well. So tell us, Li Yang, what do you need from us.”
Zhong Yue answered, “I have an item with me. I created it through Old Man Xuan and Qi’s strength but it is not completed yet. Today, I invited everyone over to borrow your psyche to activate the wonders contained in this item. I want to use this item to create a technique.”
Zhong Yue then revealed the Tian Pan and everyone was a little shock to see this item.
What is this item? They all thought.
On the Tian Pan were complicated Dao carvings that contained endless wonders of Dao. And from it, they could peek into even more heaven and earth’s Daos structure. However, what united these Daos belonged to neither the heaven and earth’s Daos. But a type of Dao that was much more complicated and advanced, completely foreign to them.
With his ocean-like psyche, Demon Monarch Yang Hou inspected Tian Pan but discovered nothing. He couldn’t help but be amazed.
Unlike the others, he, who was a demon monarch, had always acted ruthlessly. He obeyed no law and morality so he did not care much when he publicly tried to peek into Zhong Yue’s secrets.
The Moon God, on the other hand, continuously examined the Tian Pan as she had seen similar totem patterns in Bi Luo Palace but what she seen were very much different as well.
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu then smiled, “Let us begin, shall we?”
With that said, he immediately unleashed his psyche and with a boom, his psyche gushed out like six Starry Rivers into the Tian Pan, enlarging it in size and becoming more and more marvelous as it grew.
“How impressive! It actually withstood the impact from the golden bird’s great sun psyche.”
Demon Monarch Yang Hou was furthermore shocked and he laughed, “Can it hold itself with the addition of my demon monarch psyche impact?”
Hong long—
His psyche exploded, turning into six similar Starry River, cut into the Tian Pan while various Dao languages echoed through the skies.
On the surface of this Treasures of Heavenly Daos, the carvings lit up, enlarged in size again and even more Daos carvings emerged but it remained sturdy before the two massive impacts.
“Let me try!”
With a soft laugh, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian unleashed his psyche into the Tian Pan, causing more Dao carvings to emerged and the Tian Pan remained standing strong.
“Heh, how about mine?”
Chuo Long was surprised and his psyche surged into the Tian Pan, causing the countless Dao carvings to blink constantly.
Yin Bokang, Ling Zheng, Lu Qianqiu, Moon God, Fu Li, and the others followed up quickly and as their psyche entered the Tian Pan, the countless Dao totem patterns on the Tian Pan finally lit up.
Zhong Yue then inhaled deeply and sat right in the middle of the Tian Pan. He then started taking control over everyone’s psyche to create his new technique!
As the combined psyche wavered, the countless Dao totem patterns began transforming crazily and around Zhong Yue, countless totem patterns started twisting around as the calculation began!
In the Six Imperial Palace, the Heaven Daos and Earth Daos were triggered before such terrifying psyche and started transforming!
In truth, whatever Zhong Yue said just now was just an excuse to borrow their intelligence to aid him in merging his four monarch level ultimate arts into one final ultimate art!
Chapter 953: Unlucky Heaven Court |
His shortcomings in intelligence was made up for by the many monarchs and gods’ intelligence.
Their psyche nurtured the Treasures of Heavenly Daos, unleashing the Treasures of Heavenly Daos’s terrifying calculation ability. It was equivalent to gathering their intelligence together to be placed under Zhong Yue’s control.
However, the details of how the Tian Pan worked was unknown to them.
When Zhong Yue’s psyche connected with the Tian Pan, Zhong Yue felt like he had control over endless intelligence, he clearly felt that the combined psyche of everyone present was so many times deeper than the ocean, larger than the so-called galaxy. His very own psyche was like an ant before this psyche torrent!
But now, everyone’s combined psyche was now able to be used freely by him to complete the extraordinarily calculation through the Tian Pan and use their psyche to power up Tian Pan!
When everyone’s psyche seeped into Tian Pan, what they saw was what Zhong Yue wanted them to see; the transformation in the Daos of the operating Tian Pan lay before them, and they couldn’t peek into what Zhong Yue was doing behind the scenes.
And that was the most important part as Zhong Yue’s arts and techniques contained a huge portion of Fuxi Celestial Race’s arts. Among all, the most important one was the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] and [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture]. Between the two, [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture] was leaked to the outsiders, but the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Scripture] remained hidden away from the wrong hands.
Hence, if the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] was exposed, so would his identity!
Besides, the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] must not be leaked as they could trace him through this [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture]!
[Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art], [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture], in addition to the [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture], it was impossible for him to merge them all together with his very own intelligence. But now, with the contribution of the monarchs and gods outside, he finally had a chance to pull it off!
First, he spread out the incomprehensible part in [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] and solved them through the help of the Tian Pan.
Whatever was contained in the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] were far too wide-ranged and complicated that it would take him a few tens of thousands of years to understand it completely!
Among these, every iota of comprehension towards Dao required an endless amount of time!
Zhong Yue was not smart to begin with. In fact, from the beginning of his cultivation journey, Zhong Yue had always been one with the most average talent. But he had an advantage others did not possess, his determination and novel methods.
Knowing his own flaws, Zhong Yue created the [Yin Yang Lines Divinatory Calculation Technique] that boosted his own intelligence. But before the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], he was still helpless.
But things were different now. With the help of the monarchs and gods alongside Tian Pan, he had obtained endless intelligence; the information that needed endless time to be mastered was gradually being mastered by Zhong Yue and absorbed by him.
The knowledge was turned into a knowledge tree that contained endless Dao systems in its leaves, branches, barks, and roots!
The [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] was just like a tool passed down to him. After that, it would entirely depend on Zhong Yue on how to use this tool.
Dao Venerate Fu Min had taught him a portion of this art. The crown prince, Fu Shang, then taught him the entire art along with his own understandings to Zhong Yue. But all of these were incomplete.
What Dao Venerate Fu Min taught was just a part; Fu Shang’s was his own understanding. And what Zhong Yue was doing right now was reorganizing this knowledge before turning it into his own!
The Tian Pan rumbled, and torrential psyche cut into it. The endless Greater Dao totem patterns transformed at insane speed while everyone except for Zhong Yue looked towards the Tian Pan in awe, shock and even fear.
“What is this item?”
Yang Shuiyun murmured, “Was this really created by Mister Yi?”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian frowned slightly as he failed to comprehend the wonders in it. This aroused his suspicion; the Tian Pan was beyond his comprehension yet it was something created by Zhong Yue, how was this not worrying?
It was never a good thing for a lord when his vassal’s power surpassed his.
The stronger Zhong Yue was, the more relaxed he was as he was able to control Zhong Yue and every inch of talent displayed by Zhong Yue would be for his use.
But now, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian felt like he might not be able to control Zhong Yue anymore.
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was also surprised as he thought, No wonder Hundun said that he has gotten out from Chaos to in search of this man. With just this item alone, I am already incapable of understanding it. I might be able to escape death in the future by tying myself to this man….
