Rise of Humanity

  “Mister Bi Luo is already on it.”

  Heavenly Monarch Di Ming smiled, “Mister, come, walk with me.”

  Mo Yin bowed and followed behind his master, who waved at Queen Goddess to signal her to leave first while Lou Zhengshi and the others were all dismissed.

  After some time, they got out from the camps and Heavenly Monarch Di Ming said with a headache, “Mister, my teacher sent Junior Martial Brother Xie Yang this time with an item and told me to capture King Yi and present him to my teacher. The other senior martial uncles also sent their own representatives with respective items, also wanting to capture King Yi…. If I helped my teacher, I will inevitably offend Innate Demon Monarch, Innate Celestial Monarch and the others. Feng Tian Origin Lord and Yuan Ya Deity King will also be unhappy with me. But if I help the others, my teacher will be the first one to take my life.”

  He frowned, Zhong Yue was right opposite the river in the fortress, but he still felt difficult regardless. It was not that Zhong Yue was hard to deal with, but that Zhong Yue had just way too many enemies. All those existences that Heavenly Monarch Di Ming didn’t dare to offend all wanted Zhong Yue dead. And he was sandwiched in the middle, something that gave him great pause.

  “If this is the case, why doesn’t Your Majesty just sit out of this?”

  Mo Yin smiled, “Just focus on dealing with Imperial Emperor Xian Tian. As for King Yi, just let the other paragons’ disciples deal him. This way, no matter who captures Zhong Yue, Your Majesty won’t offend anyone.”

  A smile appeared on heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s face as he said, “You are right. No wonder Ghost Master couldn’t win against Mister Yi and you.”

  Mo Yin’s heart tightened, he felt like he was being preyed on, Could it be that he knows what we did and how Gui Youmin died because of his fate being weakened by me?

  Heavenly Monarch Di Ming, however, just said, “Mister, I suppose this far should be enough. For now, you will have to work harder to prove yourself useful, for if you became useless, I won’t mind to stand up for Ghost Master.”

  Mo Yin’s back became soaked in cold sweat right away.

  Serving a lord was tantamount to serving a tiger; history had proven that this saying this was not an exaggeration, but were the likes of a Heavenly Monarch merely just a tiger?

  At least a tiger’s emotion could be deduced from its actions and thoughts, but the same could not be said for a Heavenly Monarchs!

  Even after becoming a monarch, it would be difficult for Imperial Emperor Xian Tian to win against Di Ming.

  Mo Yin thought.

  He was almost scared to death by the words coming out from Heavenly Monarch Di Ming, a little bit more and he would’ve defected to the Heaven Breaching Fortress immediately!

  But if he ran, he would be dead for sure!

  How could someone like him escape from the likes of Heavenly Monarch Di Ming?

  And if the Heavenly Monarch Di Ming really wanted to kill him, it would take less than a second!

  One day, a messenger from the Heaven Breaching Fortress arrived, presenting an invitation letter to Lou Zhengshi before meeting with a few dozen gods, delivering the invitation letter from Zhong Yue. Lou Zhengshi immediately headed towards Mo Yin’s with the letter and said, “King Yi is going to organize the future monarch meeting in the fortress and he’s invited some of us.”

  Mo Yin asked, “The future monarch meeting? Has it been 100 years since that meeting in the Heaven Court?”

  “Not yet but close.”

  Lou Zhengshi said, “I asked the messenger just now and he said that King Yi dispatched his men into Zi Wei and ancient universe to deliver the letter to every future monarch and everyone who has the potential of becoming a monarch. Come to think of it, it would take five years until everyone is notified and arrives at the fortress. After five years, it would be 100 years exactly.”

  Mo Yin looked at Zhong Yue’s camp located far away and slightly frowned, “No wonder his fate is growing stronger each day. With the future monarchs all gathered around in his camp, his fate will be completely immune to me. Mister Yi, you really are a formidable foe!”

  Lou Zhengshi asked, “Five years later, the rebel Yi’s fate will reach the pinnacle with the future monarchs’ fate all gathered there. Mister, should we attack now?’

  Mo Yin shook his head, “General Lou, I will lend you the Insight of Fate and you tell me, is the enemy camp breakable right now?”

  An eye opened in his forehead and with a point, he placed his finger on Lou Zhengshi’s forehead, allowing him to see what Mo Yin saw and what Lou Zhengshi saw shocked him tremendously.

  He saw that the fate of the Heaven Breaching Fortress Zhong Yue built was extremely condensed, Dao flowers blossomed in the void, Dao light split the skies apart and above the central camp were numerous Imperial Stars!

  The fate surrounded Heaven Breaching Fortress entirely, turning it impenetrable and unbreachable, whoever that attacked the fortress would have to pay an arm and a leg!

  He looked towards the Heaven Court where fate was still strong but appeared to be relatively weak after being absent with the might that suppressed the entire universe.

  “Five years later when the future monarchs arrive, the fate will reach its peak, which is hundred folds stronger than now! If we can’t breach the fortress now, there won’t be a chance five years later!”

  Mo Yin continued, “For now, we will have to wait for the meeting to end and attack only when his fate falls. Once the meeting is over, his fate will fall greatly! Oh, General Lou, will you be attending the meeting?”

  “I will and I have to!” said Lou Zhengshi firmly.

  Mo Yin was stunned for a second and Lou Zhengshi continued, “I am not betraying the Heaven Court, but this is the future monarch meeting, where there are no enemies but only companions, friends that gathered around to pursue the heart of Daos. King Yi is also dropping his duty temporarily if he is willing to invite me and welcome me with open arms thinking that I am a friend. How could I not go?”

  Mo Yin nodded, “Just this point alone shows how he is better than me! I presume he invited the Huangting Clan, Dating Clan, and Panhu Clan’s young magnates as well, will they all be going?”

  Lou Zhengshi sent men to seek an answer from them and they all replied, “Of course, this only happens every 100 years, if we miss it, we would have to wait another 100 years.”

  Mo Yin thought, Even the generals and soldiers in our army insisted on attending, the others will also be there for sure. With the future monarch meeting, the world in the future will tremble before King Yi’s presence!

  …

  Imperial Star.

  The Diming Clan formed an alliance with the Wuming Clan and attacked Lilu Clan, who in turn requested help from the Zhongyang Clan. Both sides continued to battle ferociously for a hundred years; even the Heaven Court’s Constellation Army arrived, but the Lilu Clan still prevailed.

  On the field, bodies were everywhere and one day amidst of the chaotic battle, 100 gods arrived, flew towards different parts in the Imperial Star and one of them arrived at the battlefield and shouted, “Is Lilu Clan’s Senior Martial Brother Lu Wang down there?”

  Lu Wang, who was bathing himself in the bloodshed, raised his head and shouted, “I am, Lu Wang is over here!”

  The god replied, “Under King Yi’s order, I am here to present to you the invitation letter to the future monarch meeting that will be taking place in Heaven Breaching Fortress right outside of Imperial Star!”

  With that, he channeled energy into the letter that was written by Zhong Yue and sent it flying to Lu Wang.

  With a few stabs, Lu Wang struck down his enemies, grabbed onto the letter and burst out laughing after taking a look, “Tell King Yi that Lu Wang will be there on time! Where is Heaven Breaching Fortress?”

  “Senior Martial Brother Lu Wang, just look up and you’ll find it.”

  Lu Wang looked into the skies, where a divine fortress stood almightly right out
side the skies Imperial Star, located not close to the star but still considerately close. From far away, when the sun shone on the fortress, the fortress was all covered in silver lining.

  “That fortress is the Heaven Breaching Fortress? King Yi had reached all the way into the Imperial Star?”

  Lu Wang was caught off guard by this and he exclaimed, “And here am I, wondering when this fortress appeared? So it’s him huh?”

  The god, on the other hand, did not leave as he took out another letter and asked, “Is Senior Martial Sister Lu Binger here?”

  “Pass me the invitation letter and I will hand it to senior martial sister!” shouted Lu Wang as another Deity Overlord died in his hands.

  The god handed out the letter and a golden armored celestial being fought his way out, surrounded by Deity Overlords and he said loudly, “I am the Diming Clan’s Ming Wenyu, is there an invitation for me?”

  The god took out a letter right away and said politely, “There is, here is Your Highness’ letter and these are the letters for the other princes and princesses. If Your Highness’ would be kind enough to deliver letters to them!”

  Ming Wenyu burst out laughing after taking the letters over and shouted, “Brat Lu Wang, I am also invited to the meeting!”

  Lu Wang let out an angry battlecry, charged towards Ming Wenyu with his own men and smirked, “By the time the future monarch meeting begins, Your Highness’ body would have rotted a long ago!”

  Meanwhile, Zhong Yue’s emissaries flew towards different parts in the world, arriving at the many sovereign races’ doorsteps, delivering the invitation letters. There were many strong magnates in the Imperial Star, most of whom were already reliable and independent experts. But there were also many who once shone brightly but had now lost their lives at some point throughout time.

  However, because of the war, many other strong magnates rose. Zhong Yue’s messengers delivered the letters and the many young magnates who received the letter were all surprised and happy. They showed the invitation letter to everyone around them and smiled, “King Yi knows about me!”

  Chapter 1068: The Same Logic |

  After a few months, the messengers had finally completed their mission but just as they were about to return to the fortress, a divine officer, seemingly from the Heaven Court, descended from the skies and stopped them.

  “Dear messengers, do you still have any additional invitation letters? I am here under His Majesty’s order to ask for some.”

  The messengers’ heart tightened as they all said carefully, “There aren’t any prepared for His Majesty.”

  The officer then simply said, “Then please have King Yi to prepare some. These are the ones that His Majesty wants the invitation letters for.”

  He then took out a gold booklet and handed it to the messengers, who kept it away and left quickly.

  “What is His Majesty planning to do by showing desire to attend the future monarch meeting?”

  The messengers were all confused.

  They continued but before they could leave the Imperial Star, a handsome young god halted them.

  This god was extraordinarily good looking, with wings on his back. But despite how graceful and polite he looked, there was clearly madness burning in his eyes.

  “Did King Yi tell you to send an invitation letter to me?” asked the god.

  “May we know your name, my lord?” asked a messenger.

  The god’s voice rumbled in his chest, sounded like phoenix, “I am Feng Mingshan.”

  “Feng Mingshan of the Tian Feng Sovereign Race that opened the seventh secret realm?”

  One of the elderly messenger’s eyes lit up and said, “Our master had already sent another batch of messengers to deliver the invitation into Heavenly Fire Barren Region. Once returning to Heavenly Fire Barren Region, Senior Martial Brother Feng will be able to retrieve it.”

  “You say go back to Heavenly Fire Barren Region?”

  Fire raged within Feng Mingshan’s eyes, “Go back? I can’t go back anymore! I am the sole survivor of the Heavenly Fire Barren Region now!”

  The messengers were all stunned for they all knew Zhong Yue was taking Heavenly Fire Barren Region’s Feng Mingshan seriously and he specifically sent a messenger into Heavenly Fire Barren Region to invite him. But now it seemed like Feng Mingshan had severed ties with Tian Feng Sovereign Race and bore hostility towards the Heavenly Fire Barren Region.

  “There is no Tian Feng Sovereign Race anymore… only Feng Mingshan!”

  Feng Mingshan placed his hands behind his back and said proudly, “Why would I still view her as my ancestor when Feng Tian Origin Lord uses me as a tool and chess piece? I will rebuild the Tian Feng Sovereign Race and the new Tian Feng Sovereign Race will replace the old one as the real monarch race. I will reclaim the honor of the phoenixes instead of being a puppet of the ancient Deity King! Bring me to Mister Yi, I need a word with him!”

  In the ancient universe, the Yang Hou Demon Race had expanded its powerbase crazily, having swallowed the other races’ territories and gone to total war with the celestial races.

  The Yang Hou Clan also received the support from the other five demon races. They had obtained the Innate Demon Monarch’s support and had now acquired half of the ancient universe.

  Yangguang Yuan was the disciple of Demon Monarch Yang Hou and was tasked with great responsibilities. On this day, he welcomed Zhong Yue’s messenger and after reading the invitation letter, he smiled, “So it has been 100 years, eh? The Yi Clan is really saving themselves the effort of researching who are worthy of being invited by asking me to help deliver the letters to those with the potential of becoming the monarch. Return to your lord and tell him, tell him that I will show up with the talents of ancient universe to compete with the talents in Zi Wei Galaxy!”

  The messenger bowed and Yangguan Yuan smiled, “Who else is invited in the ancient universe?”

  The messenger replied, “Under my lord’s order, invitation letters have been sent to the Moyun Clan, Dafan Clan, Jitong Clan, Dayu Clan, Tianyao Clan, and Jinwu Clan. They were also requested to send those with the potential to the fortress for the meeting.”

  Yangguan Yuan, however, paid little attention and he said, “The celestial race in ancient monarchs? Apart from the six great sovereign races, only the Innate Celestial Monarch’s disciples are a little worthy, despite being weaker than us demon races. These scrubs shouldn’t be a concern. Mister Yi is wasting his effort by inviting them because I will crush them one by one! Hmmm, these guys will also be attending the meeting? This is a great chance for me to crush them! Oh, are you going to deliver the letters to the Innate Celestial Monarch’s palace?”

  “Some of my colleagues are already making their way there.”

  Yangguan Yuan nodded and said, “King Yi is really ambitious and charming, he even dares to invite the existence in that palace. Heh, if the ancient existences’ disciples are attending as well, the meeting will be more lively! I am stronger than I used to be and curious to see how many of their disciples I can crush!”

  In Heaven Breaching Fortress, Ti Mobei arrived with Titing Clan’s Heavenly King Altar. The many Titing Clan’s Deity Emperors moved the gigantic altar slowly and placed it at the center.

  The fortress was located close to the Imperial Star and because of this, many of the invited future monarchs were already here, turning the atmosphere extremely lively.

  So many talents but I can’t experiment on them, what a shame!

  A middle-aged man in white robes acted politely, welcoming the many attending future monarchs with Zhong Yue.

  Seeing this man, Ti Mobei became attracted by his presence, but he couldn’t see through Feng Xiaozhong’s cultivation level and so asked Zhong Yue in surprise, “Mister Yi, this is?”

  Zhong Yue, however, showed little desire to introduce the middle-aged man to him and simply smiled, “This is my senior martial brother. Brother Mobei, there are many strong ones that have arrived recently, much of whom a
re your old enemies.”

  Ti Mobei burst out laughing but Zhong Yue could see the icy cold in his eyes, “Throughout these years, I’ve been through battles. I’ve come across many strong foes, but it is not that easy to win against me! Heh, I would personally like to meet with some of these old enemies in fact! Mister Yi, see you in a bit!”

  Zhong Yue watched as Ti Mobei left and he smiled, “Senior Martial Brother Feng, you are a little excited, aren’t you? How far have you progressed in the Ancestral Court’s Seven Paths Reincarnation that I taught you?”

  The man standing beside Zhong Yue now was Feng Xiaozhong and he replied, “I merely understood a little on the ancient monarchs’ understanding towards the seventh secret realm and Dao Venerate Fu Min’s understanding was far greater than mine, but still, the completed Seven Paths Reincarnation System is not formed yet. If the great Dao Venerate Fu Min could live a little longer, he might just be able to create the Seven Paths Reincarnation or even the Eight Paths Reincarnation.”

  His heart moved, revealing the seventh secret realm projection that turned into the seventh light wheel and said, “It’s hard to connect the seven great secret realms together. I tried many other secret realms throughout these years but none succeeded.”

  Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched but the seventh light wheel behind Feng Xiaozhong’s head transformed the another seventh secret realm; after receiving the information, Feng Xiaozhong started developing other secret realms and tried to explore the wonders of the Seven Paths Reincarnation from the other secret realms.

  Then, the secret realm transformed again, turned into the third type of secret realm, the forth and so on….

  What a crazy man you are! Do you even know fear?

  Zhong Yue complained silently in his mind as he watched Feng Xiaozhong changing his secret realm to different types, which was very alike to the Fuxi statue he saw deep in the Ancestral Court’s abyss.

  The Fuxi statue was also constantly changing the seventh secret realm, studying the interactions between the seventh and other secret realms.
