If the servant’s power was over the limit, far exceeding the other servants, it would turn into a bad thing to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
Apart from that, in just a few hundred years time, Zhong Yue had already grown his power to such an extent and after the war of thrones, perhaps his power would experience a huge spike, resulting in a situation where he was only below one person and above everyone else!
Hence, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wanted to recruit Fu Baotian and the others so that they could keep Zhong Yue in check.
Yin Fanxuan then walked up and thanked Imperial Emperor Xian Tian who locked his vision onto her while putting on a smile, “Goddess Fanxuan is smart. You know that I am around and requested help from me. Where is King Yi? Why is he not here?”
Yin Fanxuan replied, “He is probably in the unworldly world right now.”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s heart thumped and he exclaimed, “He dares to enter that place? Is he not afraid of being killed after being discovered by the Fuxi in there? No, how did he manage to enter that place without the command scroll?”
“When he left, he said that he will borrow Xiao Wuji’s identity and the command paper with Xiao Wuji.”
Yin Fanxuan replied, “As for how he pull this off, I have no idea.”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian stuttered for a second and praised, “King Yi’s guile is unrivalled! Fu Baotian, that Xiao Wuji you all saw in unworldly world might be King Yi.”
Fu Baotian and the others were dumbfounded, “He’s Mister Yi? But he’s supposed to be Xiao Wuji ….”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian kept quiet for a second as he thought, King Yi did not come back yet probably because he wanted to utilize the uniqueness of the unworldly world to remove the seals in the human bloodline. Is he not afraid of the consequences from me for doing so?
He frowned slightly as his ambition was to become the Heavenly Monarch and as the Heavenly Monarch, his name and reputation must remain untained in the eyes of the people.
Using the Fuxi’s power was already very controversial, hence, upon sitting onto the throne, he will absolutely kill the 8,000 Fuxi serving under Zhong Yue.
Not only that, but Fu Baotian and the others were already dead in his heart.
Recruiting Fuxi was definitely controversial and this was something the ancient existences and powers could never tolerate!
It was suggested that Zhong Yue clearly knew this when the 8,000 Fuxi unsealed half of their bloodline while Zhong Yue didn’t.
But now, he risked being killed by staying in the unworldly world. His purpose was clear; why did he do this even though he knew that there will be a cleansing in the future?
Mister Yi, you are getting more and more mysterious, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian thought.
Nine days later, Zhong Yue was still dealing with the fourth bloodline seal but he did not even remove a single piece in the fourth seal as he waited until he had full control over the seal.
With the mentality of the monarch and the [Innate Eight Trigrams], it was not difficult remove this seal, but what he lacked was time.
Ten days were, after all, not enough.
Without him knowing, today was the tenth day and suddenly, Zhong Yue exhaled deeply. He kept the Tian Pan’s plate away and only the innate divine saber remained.
Without a sign, the innate divine saber disintegrated into countless tiny blades, drilled into his body and at the same time, his countless incarnations shrunk, turned into the size of a dust and dived into his body along with the tiny blades.
These incarnations then grabbed onto the tiny blades and started looking for the fourth seal.
The actions of these incarnations were clearly reflected in his mind and everything the incarnations touched and saw were all crystal clear in his mind.
“[Dao Crusher]!”
With an order, the countless incarnations moved in sync, slashing towards the fourth seal in his bloodline, using the third move, [Dao Crusher] in the [God Slaying Three Styles] he created!
However, this [Dao Crusher] was very much different from the [Dao Crusher] he created in the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds. Now, the [Dao Crusher] was performed through his monarch level knowledge with only one purpose, to severe the fourth bloodline seal!
[Dao Crusher], slashing away all seals and Daos!
The fourth bloodline seal was a Heavenly Deity level monarch seal and it was separated into endless parts that hid within the bloodline!
These seals would get stronger as he grew; when he reached the Imminent Deity level, these seal would evolve into a seal created by Imminent Deity level monarchs, and when he reached the Heavenly Deity level, so would the seal.
Once reaching the monarch level, there was basically no way to remove these seals anymore for at just the Heavenly Deity level, the fourth bloodline seal had already split into billions of pieces. As he got stronger, so would the seal.
Upon reaching the monarch level, the seal would entirely seal off the bloodline and restricted every power in him.
[Dao Crusher] was now used to slash this monarch level seal and fight against the evil existence.
The seals in his bloodline were equivalent to seals the evil existence created when he was still in the Heavenly Deity level. Whether or not Zhong Yue managed to remove the seals was actually a battle against the evil existence on the same level!
Hong long—
Rumblings came from his body as the countless seals shattered, showering Zhong Yue with his own blood as blood gushed out from every single pore!
“Again!”
Zhong Yue controlled his incarnations, found the new seals and the countless Zhong Yue slashed their blades downwards!
Sharp blades glided through the dimension, creating loud noises as the seals shattered before the countless Zhong Yue charged right towards the other seals!
Chapter 980: The Trapped Dragon |
It felt like a torrent was rampaging within Zhong Yue, pushing him forward while unleashing loud noises, rumbling the blood in Zhong Yue and his clones continued pushing forward!
There was more than a billion fourth bloodline seals in him, each of which were extremely dense.
It was already exhausting right now, and once he got stronger, he would be even more exhausted!
“Slash!”
Zhong Yue roared, turning the torrent in his body into the sharpest saber, mowing down the seals and crushing them into pieces!
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Without any change, Zhong Yue just cut the seals into pieces with a repetitive attack!
As the seals were broken, more and more of his bloodline was unleashed and as his bloodline got stronger, the sealed 34th spinal vertebrae changed as the final piece of the bone no longer obstructed the other 33 bones.
With that, the 33 bones were synched into one, the final piece of the bone turned his legs into a serpent tail that was inherited from the innate serpent.
As more of the bloodline was unleashed, the innate serpent tail slowly became perfect and apart from that, more and more Fuxi’s innate totem patterns emerged, granting him a deeper understanding towards the Fuxi Celestial Race’s monarch level art, especially the serpent tail.
This innate serpent tail was bestowed with the ability to fly among the clouds and slither in the void. It was incredible; if cultivated to a certain level, it would grant the owner immense power!
Lady Monarch Yin Qiang’s [Yin Qiang Demon Conqueror Mystic Scripture] was an art that merged the spine and serpent tail into a ruthless spear with countless transformations; this spear existed between reality and the void and it was one of the few arts that was known for its transformation among the ultimate arts!
And without the innate serpent tail, it was basically impossible to cultivate this art!
Besides, if the [Yin Qiang Demon Conqueror Mystic Scripture] was cultivated along with the [Thirty-three Layers Solar Skies Scripture], the combined power of these two arts would gather the excellence between the two arts, which abs
urdly amplified the user’s power!
After leaving this place, I will have Imperial Emperor Xian Tian escorting Yinkang Clan to the Heaven Suppression Hall while I look for Senior Martial Brother Feng to retrieve the [Yin Qiang Demon Conqueror Mystic Scripture] and [Thirty-three Layers Solar Skies Scripture] from him!
Zhong Yue continued lifting the seals, depleting his energy in the process, weakening him greatly but the persistent Zhong Yue continued to remove the seal.
This was a very rare chance and he grabbed onto this chance firmly by removing the seal in one go to fully awaken the innate serpent tail!
Deep within the unworldly world, in the abyss-like well, Feng Zhen and Fu Mei finally suppressed the rumblings beneath the ground and Feng Zhen immediately stood up and said, “Finally. This old brat may be dead but he sure is a lively one. My bones almost shattered by the turbulence he caused. I don’t understand the reason why are we still keeping him here, why can’t we just erase him?”
Fu Mei laughed, “He had after all, killed Feng Changyang and contributed a lot. Some existences said that they must keep him alive. By the way, didn’t you say you want to meet that Xiao Wuji? I’ll take care of everything here for now so you can go now.”
“I almost forgot!”
Feng Zhen started taking his leave and said, “Be careful of him. He may be old but he is still powerful. I will now go see this Feng Wuji and take a look at the interesting thingsI saw in him.”
Hong long—
With a rumble, Zhong Yue coughed out tones of blood and he immediately felt better but weak at the same time as he had reached his peak.
At long last! I must leave now!
He beat his sense back to him, dragged himself away while Hundun Yu continued to guard the palace carefully.
“Senior Martial Brother Yu, let’s go!”
Zhong Yue forced out a smile, “Make haste, the quicker the better!”
Hundun Yu who saw how weak Zhong Yue was right now immediately retracted the Fusang Divine Tree and said, “Let me help you.”
“It’s alright.”
Zhong Yue took in a deep breath, tried his best to regenerate more energy but with his current state, there was nothing much he could do.
“Don’t help me or it will be very obvious.”
Just as Zhong Yue spoke of this, a voice came from the back, “Where is Mister Wuji heading?”
Zhong Yue turned around and said, “My mission here is completed so I am going to take my leave now.”
This voice belonged to the young Fuxi celestial being that welcomed him when he arrived. The celestial being took a look at Zhong Yue and said in surprise, “Mister Wuji seems very weak right now. Why don’t you stay for a few days to take a rest first? There are some supplements in my place that can help you recover quickly. Mister Wuji, may Xiaoshan have the honour to aid you?”
Zhong Yue smiled and said, “I wished that I could stay for a few days but I just can’t. The frontline is getting more tense with each day, and I am worried about the battle against the Yinkang Clan now. They need someone like me at the frontlines or they might fall to a disadvantage.”
This “Xiaoshan” smiled, “I see. Mister Wuji, can I have a word with you over there please?”
He then held Zhong Yue’s arms, looked around and whispered, “To be frank, I also wish to take a look at the outside world but I just couldn’t get the chance. Can Mister Wuji….”
Zhong Yue immediately gave him a firm nod and a smile, to which the happy Xiaoshan thanked.
The impatient Zhong Yue who wanted to leave quickly then said, “I am in a hurry, go prepare a ship as quickly as possible! It doesn’t have to be luxury one, I only require it to be quick enough.”
“Xiaoshan” immediately rushed to prepare a ship while Zhong Yue and Hundun Yu walked quickly towards the dock. Upon arriving at the dock, before they board the ship, another voice laughed, “Little friend Wuji, why are you in such a hurry?”
Zhong Yue turned around and he saw a Fuxi old man who was guarding the dock, named Fu Baorui, also an elder but not as close to the centre of power like Fu Baotian and the others.
Zhong Yue replied with a smile, “I’m worried about the battle so I have no choice but to rush back.”
Fu Baorui was amazed at Zhong Yue’s diligence and immediately praised, “You are an admirable one but I can tell that you are very weak now. If you rush over right now, you might hurt your body and Yuan Shen. Why don’t you stay here for a few days and return after recovering yourself?”
“Thank you for your concern, elder.”
Zhong Yue replied seriously, “But I have heavy responsibilities on my shoulders. I am already uneasy after taking a few days off. I must rush back right now and if there is a chance, I will come back to have a drink with you, elder!”
Fu Baorui laughed and said, “If that’s how it is, then this old man will not hold you any longer, please.”
Zhong Yue boarded the Mengchong Warship, bowed at Fu Baorui, who bowed back and watched as the trio disappeared within his vision as the warship sailed deep into the seals.
Suddenly, a monarch presence descended before Feng Zhen landed onto the dock and asked coldly, “Where is Xiao Wuji?”
“He just left, saying that the frontline is tensed up right now and he had to rush back.” replied Fu Baorui as he bent 90 degrees.
“Gone? He solved the bloodline seal in such a short time? How many seals did he lift in only ten days? Baorui, is there something abnormal in him?”
Fu Baorui gave it a thought and shook his head, “There isn’t anything abnormal. He looked the same except that he was a little weakened. He also turned me down after I invited him to stay for a few more days to recover himself.”
“Weakened?”
Feng Zhen’s expression changed direly as he realized something, This wouldn’t have happened if he was just removing the first and second bloodline seals! Not even the third seal would cause one to weaken after breaking it! Only the removal of fourth seal would deplete so much energy! The fourth seal’s removal is 80% threshold of the Fuxi bloodline. Xiao Wuji has only unlocked 50% at most! He is not Xiao Wuji!
The monarch then vanished, reappearing on a luxuriuos ship in an instant before charging the ship right into the seals!
This brat is just a Heavenly Deity so his speed shouldn’t be that fast, he is still in the seals!
In the seals surrounding the unworldly world, the Mengchong Warship sailed towards the outside world quickly; these seals was the result of the truce between the many factions. In Feng Changyang’s era, there were a lot of factions.
At that time, the Earth Order Era was no more, replaced by the God Era Order, Tian Yuan became the Heavenly Monarch and Son of Heaven, creating and representing Heaven’s faction. Apart from that, there was another faction led by the evil existence and other factions that were still friendly towards the Fuxi Celestial Race.
These factions then agreed to create the unworldly world, imprisoned the Fuxi Celestial in it and there were once monarch level existences guarded this place so that there would not be Fuxi that escape from this place.
Then, Feng Changyang went insane, washed this place with the blood of the traitors and imposters, dyed the river red with blood and even killed two monarchs, causing a very huge ruckus.
After Feng Changyang’s passing, his younger brother also went crazy after he was haunted by the guilt and remorse of killing his elder brother. Fearing that he would pose a threat to the living beings outside the unworldly world, these factions then sealed him into the abyss.
With that, the only one remaining in the Fuxi branch of Feng Changyang was Feng Jikai, who binged drinked, and lived a life of a drunkard. Thus, as time slowly passed, there were no longer monarchs guarding the unworldly world. Only Feng Zhen and the others remained to safeguard this place.
There was no way for outsiders to enter this place unless they possessed the command scroll left behind by the monarchs who created this place or were gui
ded by the Fuxi in the unworldly world.
However, by boarding the little ships docked in the dock, the people in here were able to leave this place.
The ships in the dock were all capable of travelling through the seals.
Zhong Yue, Hundun Yu and “Xiaoshan” on the Mengchong Warship sailed through the layers of seals, rushed towards the outside but it would take quite some time for the seals here were extremely abundant; they were created by countless monarchs to sever the unworldly world from the universe.
Once I get out of this place, I will be free.
Zhong Yue’s eyes blinked as he felt that the Heavenly River was not far away from them anymore and just as he felt relieved, he suddenly felt goosebumps all over.
It was as if he was being preyed at and this was when he heard an old voice gradually saying, “Little friend Wuji, why are you in such a hurry? Didn’t this old man here ask you to wait for me?”
“Old ancestor Feng Zhen!”
“Xiaoshan” was happy and surprised, “Old ancestor, why are you here?”
Zhe—
A saber slit through his throat quickly, stunning “Xiaoshan” before he grabbed onto his throat as his head fell off slowly.
“But why… Mister Wuji…”
Zhong Yue remained expressionless and kept the innate divine saber away while looking towards Feng Zhen who was rushing towards him on the ship.
Chapter 981: Shang |
On the luxury ship, Feng Zhen squinted, his white beard swung against the air and he laughed, “There must be a reason why little friend Wuji killed him, right?”
Zhong Yue laughed and kicked “Xiaoshan” lifeless body down the Mengchong Warship while saying, “How can I let him live? He’s from the faction that annihilated my race.”
On the other hand, Zhong Yue stopped the ship and transmitted a message to Hundun Yu, “Senior Martial Borother Yu, get the Fusang Divine Tree ready! This is a monarch!”
“A monarch?”
Hundun Yu was all tensed up but that did not stop him from acting. He hurled the Fusang tree branch into the air, which turned into a Fusang Divine Tree. But just as this tree was about to unleash its power, it was immediately suppressed by the monarch’s seals, causing it to barely be able to cover the ship.
