Rise of Humanity

by <unknown>

  The 30-years promise to Mu Xiantian was already due, but the Innate Mountain Dao mattered more. The battle of the Heaven Court could be delayed slightly for this.

  Rays flashed in his eyes. The Innate Dao Mountain Sacred Ground was still. After all, in Yuan Ya Deity King’s homebase, there were many seals hidden across the mountain. Zhong Yue opened his Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils and scanned the scene, avoiding the hidden seals.

  Yuan Ya Deity King was a Deity King of the ancient Dark Age, he must have collected uncountable wealth. There’s no reason for me to leave this place empty-handed!

  Most experts in the sacred ground were attracted by the battle on the other side of the mountain, it was a great chance for him now. Not only could he study the Innate Mountain Dao, but he could also plunder some of Yuan Ya Deity King’s wealth!

  Zhong Yue was filled with energy. He sailed the ship to a palace and slit through the layers of dimensions, slicing the palace into pieces.

  There was a vault in the palace, and in it was stored a ball of White Luminant Gold the size of a planet. This ball of White Luminant Gold itself was more precious than his whole Heaven Suppressing Prefecture.

  Zhong Yue plundered all this wealth and headed for the next palace.

  “Who dares infiltrate our Innate Dao Mountain?”

  All of a sudden, a few rays of lights flashed through the sky and a few white crows landed in front of him. Their bodies swayed and turned into celestials with wings, human bodies, and crow heads. They shouted at Zhong Yue angrily, “Do you not know the word death!?”

  “Do you all?” Zhong Yue cast the [Innate Eight Trigrams]. Patterns and symbols emerged waltzing around him concomitant with the loud voices of Daos. 13 innate Daos turned into 13 divine sabers and slashed toward the White Crow celestials!

  Chi, chi, chi—

  The White Crow celestials were beheaded, their heads rolled to the ground with only one exception. A White Crow Deity Emperor was strong enough to block Zhong Yue’s divine saber, he spanned his wings out and fled from the scene at great speed.

  Zhong Yue was surprised, he placed his hand out and with his fingers as sabers, he waved his hand. The White Crow Deity Emperor was beheaded, but a White Crow Yuan Shen flashed out from the rolling head and continued fleeing. Zhong Yue opened his palm like a huge bell and with a loud din, the White Crow Yuan Shen was crushed to smithereens!

  “Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples are really strong, impressive!”

  Zhong Yue praised. There weren’t many Deity Emperors that could survive his attacks. But even though the White Crow Deity Emperor hadn’t cultivated the seventh secret realm, he was able to resist a few strikes from Zhong Yue before getting killed. In terms of prowess, he probably was able to rank in the top twenty in the Board of Future Monarchs!

  Zhong Yue infiltrated the grand divine palace where hundreds of black and white crows centered a huge cauldron. They were circumnavigating the cauldron while blasting black and white fire out of their mouths at it.

  A fragrance emanated out of the cauldron. It seemed like these Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples were concocting a cauldron of medicinal pellets.

  By just smelling the fragrance, Zhong Yue was sure to say that the medicinal pellets they were concocting were high-grade and nearing completion!

  “Space Secret Realm, Seven Paths Reincarnation!” Zhong Yue shouted sternly and his Seven Paths Reincarnation was cast from the back before the hundreds of Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples could react to the sudden change. The Seven Paths Reincarnation expanded greatly and encapsulated the black and white crows into Zhong Yue’s Seven Paths Reincarnation.

  Huala…

  In the next second, hundreds of skeletons fell from the light wheels behind his head, crumbling away into bits and pieces as they crashed on the floor.

  In just a short few moments, a million years had passed in his Seven Paths Reincarnation. These hundreds of experts were trapped inside of it for a million years and died of age, their corpses rotted into skeletons and their Yuan Shens disintegrated. They were wiped out of existence.

  Zhong Yue strode forward, he pushed his hand to the front and opened up the cauldron’s lid. Then, he hugged the cauldron up and saw jade-white liquids bubbling inside of it, emitting a fragrance that spirited his energy.

  In the liquids, there were pellets condensing into shapes. These concocting of medicinal pellets would be completed once the medicinal pellets fully absorbed the jade-white liquids.

  But Zhong Yue didn’t care that much. He opened his mouth wide and gulped the contents of the cauldron in one go, consuming all of the pellets and the jade-white liquids in just a few seconds.

  Zhong Yue’s mortal body and Yuan Shen trembled. Tens of thousands of secret realms were activated in his body and Dao voices started chanting from within.

  “Delicious, not bad! Strange, it’s even intoxicating! What a nice wine they brewed, how wonderful!”

  His face flushed red, his pace was teetering, and he was laughing loudly. He controlled the thousand-winged warship and rammed out the grand palace through the thick walls on the back!

  He was moving back and forth, swaying left and right, and his consciousness was blurry from the intoxication of the cauldron’s contents. His Dao heart was undulating randomly and his desires in flared, causing him to become unbridled his actions. This was probably caused by the toxins in the pellets that weren’t eradicated due to incompletion of the process.

  These toxins had unknowingly affected his judgment and intoxicated him!

  The contents of the cauldron weren’t any other common medicinal pellets. Although they may be inferior to the saint herbs, the medicinal efficacy was still abundant and had been stored inside of the secret realms in him.

  Zhong Yue was teetering on the ship while the thousand-winged ancient warship’s wings cut through the rooftops of the palaces on its way.

  “Treasures, present them all to me!” Zhong Yue was laughing like a drunkard, reaching his hands down into the palaces and randomly grabbed on anything he could.

  “How dare you!”

  Ladies flew into midair from the palaces and surrounded Zhong Yue. They were angry, glaring at him while shouting, “Who are you, how dare you step into the Deity King’s chambers of concubines!?”

  Zhong Yue glanced over the ladies and laughed, “So you are all Yuan Ya Deity King’s wives? How impressive is Yuan Ya Deity King, he has so many beauties! I don’t kill women, so, you kill yourselves!”

  Chapter 1121: Corpses Piled Like a Mountain, Blood Streaming Like a River |

  The ladies were all enraged, among them were peaked Imperial Emperors. When Yuan Ya Deity King selected the ladies as his concubines, his criteria leaned towards their looks rather than strengths, hence, even though he had many wives, not many were Imperial Emperors.

  Besides, the talents shown by these ladies were far behind his disciples.

  To Yuan Ya Deity King, who was an immortal innate Deity King, he wouldn’t bother about his concubines’ talents, for no matter how talented, how intelligent or how powerful they were, none of it would not matter since they weren’t immortal like him. One day, the ladies would all die and pass away.

  Even if they managed to become monarchs, their lifespans would only reach a maximum of 120,000 years. They still would not be able to escape death.

  Thus, if they were not going to be by Yuan Ya Deity King’s side forever, it was better off if he picked only the beautiful ones as his concubines.

  “Kill him!” shouted the ladies.

  The perfume smell wafted through the air, long sleeves whirled around, and silky smooth arms and legs were revealed.

  Zhong Yue burst out laughing, through the fire spirits’ power, he entered the Imperial Emperor level temporarily. The great Six Paths Reincarnation activated, [Innate Eight Trigrams] emerged, and Zhong Yue stood right in the center of the [Innate Eight Trigrams], the sun and moon flipped around, Yin and Yang ran together, and the four elements moved, grin
ding the many ladies into minced meat as they charged at him!

  Innate Kui Water Dao turned into an innate serpent. With a bite, it swallowed hundreds of them alive. The Innate Lightning Dao turned into an innate divine dragon, breathing lightning that burst the ladies apart. The Innate Lake Dao turned into a quasi star, hurling sword energy that cut down the ladies, piercing right through their brows.

  The Innate Kun Earth Dao, on the other hand, crushed the ladies into dust, Innate Fire Dao took form of a fiery phoenix that torched the ladies mercilessly while Innate Xun Wind Dao turned into a gourd, blowing wind so strong that it tore off the flesh of these beautiful ladies, leaving only bones on the ground.

  There were some that found their way into his eight trigrams only to get themselves killed. In the Four Symbols, the Tai Yin Divine Toad turned from the Innate Tai Yin Dao. Wherever its six eyes looked, its vision would distort the dimensions, forcefully tearing the ladies into six pieces. And when its tongue whirled around, their bodies that were separated into six pieces vanished, entirely swallowed by the toad.

  Innate Tai Yang Dao turned into the Golden Crow, split the head of a lady apart, breathed fire through the hole and burnt the lady into ashes.

  Innate Shao Yin Dao turned into a Gui Tree, crushing a lady with only a single brush, Innate Shao Yang Dao turned into a Sui Tree and burnt another lady with a brush.

  Another two Creator level ladies charged into his [Tai Chi Art], only to find themselves trapped between the Celestial and Demon Daos. With a simple twist, the ladies’ heads were plucked down right away.

  The two Imperial Emperor level ladies who saw this immediately lost their composure.

  They hurriedly came to rescue their sisters, with their powers as Imperial Emperors, their strength easily breached Zhong Yue’s Innate Eight Trigrams, charging into the Innate Four Symbols and finding their way into Innate Tai Chi.

  And that was where they were stopped, halted by the Innate Yi Dao.

  With his hands raised, the 13 innate Daos ascended into the air, turning into a colorful innate divine saber and with a swing, a head fell onto the ground, the Imperial Emperor level lady standing on the left was killed!

  Fear crept into the heart of the other lady and she took off in panicked retreat. Zhong Yue gave chase, in a very brutal and primal way, charging through the obstacles. Out of nowhere, a swarm of white and black crows emerged, these were Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples located in Innate Dao Mountain Sacred Ground, who were scattered around the mountains.

  The Dao Mountain was enormous, so huge that even the star rivers had to circle around it. When Zhong Yue intruded this place, he had already caught the attention of these disciples but it needed some time for them to arrive, given how huge the mountain was.

  Although immensely powerful, when these disciples arrived, Zhong Yue had already slaughtered most of the ladies, leaving only the last Imperial Emperor level concubine as the sole survivor.

  Drunk yet conscious, Zhong Yue looked at the disciples of Yuan Ya Deity King. There were some differences between their cultivation level, but there were so many of them. They were split into two groups, one in white robes and the other in black robes. Before they reached him, they morphed into celestial beings with bird’s head, human body, and wings. Their weapons illuminated when their energy was channeled into it, and with their energy erupted, they rained a barrage of attacks down toward Zhong Yue!

  These disciples were not to be fooled, they all possessed immense power, after all, a fool would not be chosen as Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciple; each and every one of them were qualified to enter the Board of Future Monarchs, and among them, there were a few that could even squeeze into the top ranks!

  They all had their own techniques, all unique in their way, and the weapons they wielded were also very peculiar.

  “Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples? Do you think I am afraid of you?”

  The Fuxi True Form was revealed without hesitation, human head and serpent body, the dragon scales reflected the lights and the Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils replaced the human pupils, from his throat and chest sounded the Dao voices of a dragon and snake. The 33 layers of Heavens emerged from his spine, the serpent tail turned into the innate divine dragon, Dao bones trembled, innate totem patterns branded everywhere, his heart pumped quickly, beaten like a war drum, his blood shined like a jewel, the sun and moon emerged in his eyes. His tail slithered, standing on the wind that carried him forward quickly, charging towards the approaching bird-headed celestial beings!

  Xiang Tuan Drum rumbled, bursting the disciples’ body and Yuan Shen apart, showering the ground with their blood. Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils were wide open, firing divine rays that severed the bird heads, killing everyone it looked at!

  His dragon scales, with the ability to reflect Daos, countered the disciples’ attacks, redirecting their attacks toward themselves with a power stronger than before, decimating them entirely.

  The sun and moon in his eyes shifted around. Through visual prowess, he twisted the disciples and ripped them apart!

  The Shao Hao Bell on his head rang loudly and the others started aging rapidly under the soundwaves, their body and Yuan Shen were forcefully separated. One was left outside the bell while the other was trapped within. Outside was the galaxy and inside was the universe.

  The one outside died of old age and the one inside was crushed.

  Zhong Yue’s throat moved, the Dao song of the dragon and serpent sounded, when the song rang, only a few of the Black Crow celestials and White Crow celestials covering the skies remained standing.

  Pu tong pu tong—

  Corpes fell from the skies, raining blood that dyed the Dao Mountain red.

  “Fuxi! You are a Fuxi!”

  A disciple screamed in fear, but that was the only thing he managed to do before he was swallowed by Zhong Yue’s [Immortal Divine Psyche].

  With the strength he borrowed from the fire spirits, he was now at the Imperial Emperor level, completely trampling upon his enemies, entirely unrivaled!

  Of course, the even stronger ones had already gone to help Zhuo Ya, therefore, not many Imperial Emperors remained.

  Zhong Yue remained drunk, surrounded by powerful foes, and the Imperial Emperor lady was among them. His eyes lit up upon detecting the differences in their strength, burst out laughing and when the Seven Paths Reincarnation spread out, the enemies were thrown off balance, their vision distorted and after recovering, they found themselves separated from each other, now trapped in different dimensions!

  The seven secret realms formed the Great Seven Paths Reincarnation!

  At the same time, Zhong Yue split into seven giants, launched his attacks and at the next second, he claimed the lives of his enemies, leaving only five stronger ones remaining!

  Ka cha—

  Then there was another explosion as another Seven Paths Reincarnation emerged, forcefully splitting Zhong Yue’s, obtaining a golden opportunity for survival of the remaining survivors, allowing them to escape from Zhong Yue as the two Seven Paths Reincarnations fought each other.

  “Oh? Finally, someone that can provide me with a decent challenge!”

  Zhong Yue was surprised by this and he immediately looked at the new challenger, a White Crow celestial, with a thirst for battle and blood.

  “You will not cause any more destruction!”

  The Deity Emperor level White Crow celestial shouted, “Do you think you are undefeated just by achieving the seventh secret realm? You are not the only that knows the Seven Paths Reincarnation! Now, I will show you the quintessence of our Innate Dao Mountain. Now, you will taste death by my hands!”

  “Oh? I’ve encountered Heaven’s disciple. I know exactly how powerful the Seven Paths Reincarnation is. But I’ve never fought with Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciple. I wonder how strong his Seven Paths Reincarnation is.”

  Excited by a decent challenger, Zhong Yue changed his Seven Paths Reincarnation. It was no longer the Space Reincarnation but
the Time Reincarnation. The fire spirits’ strength he borrowed was returned and he laughed, “Now, let us fight fair and square, at the same level! If you are still alive after this, I will spare you!”

  Hong long hong long—

  The ground rumbled as numerous Zhong Yue’s marched out from the other secret realms and smiled in synchronization, “Come, fight me!”

  There were a total of six Zhong Yue, and despite how impressive that White Crow celestial was, he was overwhelmed because he was inferior to Zhong Yue from the start, not to mention that he was also outnumbered. In an instant after the battle begun, he was lacerated, the angry and shocked Yuan Shen of the celestial tried to escape from his mutated body right away only to be caught by Zhong Yue in a flash. With drunkard behavior, Zhong Yue smiled, “Is this all Yuan Ya Deity King’s Seven Paths Reincarnation can do? So it seems like his Seven Paths Reincarnation is not as good as mine! However, the fact that you achieved Seven Paths Reincarnation tells me that there is a saint herb in the Innate Dao Mountain, tell me where it is and you shall be spared, by my generosity!”

  “Never!” Shouted the White Crow celestial’s Yuan Shen.

  “Then you will die,” replied Zhong Yue coldly as he disintegrated the Yuan Shen. Meanwhile, the other disciples and that remaining Imperial Emperor concubine scattered around, running for their lives. With a stomp, Zhong Yue launched himself forward, ramming himself into the back of the concubine, pressing her onto the mountain and smiling, “Goddess, why are you running away from me? If Yuan Ya Deity King can sleep with you, then I too, can sleep with you…. Huh? Dead already? How boring!”

  He threw the concubine’s crushed body aside and charged towards the others. Just as a Creator activated his Secular World, a fiery hand tore it apart and grabbed onto his head, squashing it off with brute strength!

  The body was thrown aside and the palaces’ gates were mowed down as Zhong Yue charged in, unleashing a massacre upon the other Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples cultivating within these palaces, one by one, they were all hunted down by Zhong Yue, no matter who they were or how they begged and what they did, they were all killed mercilessly.
