Rise of Humanity

  Jin Hexi said, “But now, our Jinwu Clan is surrounded and besieged, assistance of the other celestial races are out of our reach. If this continues on until a demon monarch comes, we will lose our sacred ground.”

  Rays brimmed in Zhong Yue’s eyes, he said solemnly, “Xi’er, get your elders to cast the Fusang Tree and prepare for a counter attack! Senior Martial Brother Yu, cast your Hundun Clan’s Fusang Divine Tree! Fu Li, Elder Qi, Elder Shan, cast the Create Evolve Mystical Gate! Xi’er, cast out your second Yuan Shen!”

  Krong—

  The thousand-winged ancient ship sailed into the Nether, the deepest part of dimensions, and sneaked into the demon alliance’s center camp. There, they saw many huge ancient warships, hovering demon mountains, flying demonic divine weapons, and countless demon gods. They were all pouncing on the Valley of Tang’s divine city wave after wave!

  Then, there were millions of demon spirits centering the demon monarch spirits. The leading demon monarch spirit was waving a demonic hammer larger than a sun and hammered down on the divine city!

  The thousand-winged ancient ship slipped past the demon weapons and rammed right at the back of Dawu Clan’s Wu Yue. Wu Yue was wielding the Monarch Wu Bamboom Slips and shot our millions of demon swords toward the divine city.

  It was at this moment that a shabby warship appeared out of nowhere behind Wu Yue and rammed on her back. The thousand-winged ancient ship pressed on the peak Imperial Emperor and squished her to death like a tiny bug on the divine city’s city wall.

  Her demonic blood splattered all over the surface of the city’s wall!

  Chapter 1165: Strike of Fusang Divine Tree |

  Wu Yue was almost crushed into minced meat, flesh was all over the walls, but the flesh started squirming, creeping towards the same spot as Wu Yue was still alive and he attempted to recover his body.

  At the same time, Monarch Wu Bamboos Slips scattered around flew into the air and the countless blades rained down on Zhong Yue!

  Wu Yue was after all, a peak Imperial Emperor and that made her more than just powerful; even after she got crushed by the thousand winged ancient ship, she was still able to launch a retaliation attack towards Zhong Yue!

  Meanwhile, when her flesh was about to come back together, Jin Hexi’s second Yuan Shen leaped into the air, hurling punches into the flesh and the walls trembled before her might!

  Her second Yuan Shen was forged from Feng Tian’s phoenix feather, which rivalled a peak Imperial Emperor. With the punches, Wu Yue was once again crushed and heavenly fire started burning him, igniting all her flesh.

  “Heavenly Fire Barren Region’s heavenly fire?”

  Wu Yue’s Yuan Shen squeaked from the scattered flesh before pieces of Yuan Shen flew out from the flesh, trying to flee, but with a swing, Hundun Yu slammed his Fusang Divine Tree down, reducing the Yuan Shen pieces into smithereens!

  And just like that, a peak Imperial Emperor was gone!

  From Zhong Yue’s ramming into Wu Yue until Wu Yue’s death, it only took a breath’s time for a peak Imperial Emperor to be wiped away from existence!

  “How dare you!”

  Standing closest to Wu Yue was a demon monarch spirit who responded almost in an instant, without any more words, he reached his hands out towards Zhong Yue and his companions, only to find a gate descending upon him from above. The sudden appearance of the gate gave no window for the demon monarch spirit to react, and when his hands reached the gate, his strength was weakened by the Create Evolve Mystic Gate.

  Hong hong hong—-

  From Create Evolve Mystic Gate came rumbles, as the demon monarch spirit’s hands past through the countless worlds within the Create Evolve Mystic Gate, came barging out behind the gate and continuing to reach towards the ancient ship.

  Though weakened by the many layers of worlds in Create Evolve Mystic Gate, this demon monarch spirit’s strength was still far beyond powerful!

  At the front deck, Zhong Yue reacted right away, with a turn and a swing, the demon monarch spirit’s hands that extended out from the Create Evolve Mystic Gate were entirely severed.

  In the next second, the thousand winged ancient ship flew away, disappearing in the thin air, leaving the severed arm demon monarch spirit roaring furiously and his body falling backwards towards the Valley of Tang Divine City. His massive size rendered the many Jin Wu unable to escape in time as they all suffered a tragic death.

  Before this demon monarch spirit could get up, however, his expression changed upon seeing the massive Fusang Divine Tree in the Jinwu Clan slamming towards him, shrouded in raging heavenly fire!

  Shua—-

  The divine tree’s branch struck first. It whipped his body, causing the demon monarch spirit to wail in pain. He then rose quickly from the raging chaotic heavenly fire and escaped into the Void World.

  In the skies, dimensions were ripped apart by the demon monarch spirit and he also tore the Void Realm apart, letting the alluring light from the realm to slip past through the hole, as if it were a bridge that led to the opposite world.

  The demon monarch spirit sprinted on the light bridge leading to the Void Realm while the fire remained burning in him as he fled. When he finally arrived at the entrance to the Void Realm, the last bit of him was consumed by the fire and he was burnt into streams of chaos Qi!

  Zhong Yue, too, was in intense shock. The Fusang Divine Tree was indeed one of the nine spirit roots, its strength was so overwhelming that it burnt a demon monarch spirit into ash with just a strike!

  However, he couldn’t be bothered and he started fleeing right away; just as the thousand winged ancient ship vanished, its original position was flooded by the might of one after another powerful weapons as Yang Yuzun and Chen Gongzheng attacked!

  Deep in the dimensions, even more demon monarch spirits’ arms reached into the dimensions before these massive spirits squeezed out from the void and charged towards the thousand winged ancient ship, but not before the monarch weapons were swung towards the ship!

  With all his might, Zhong Yue pushed the ship’s speed to the peak while the four demon monarch spirits gave chase. All of a sudden, light erupted from the front as a majesty divine tree breached out of the dimensions. Each of the dimensions had this tree standing firmly in the chaos.

  Seeing these trees, the four demon monarch spirits halted right away while Zhong Yue’s clothes fluttered despite the absence of wind. His body ballooned in size as he turned into a giant whose upper body was human and lower body was serpent. With a grab, he held Hundun Yu’s Fusang Divine Tree’s branch in his palms and he hurled it into the air.

  Instantly, the tree branch started flying towards the ancient spirit root under some kind of unseen power!

  At the same time, the many Jinwu Clan’s elders and members knelt and bowed towards the spirit root!

  With his serpent tail slithering quickly, Zhong Yue moved towards the spirit root and the Fuxi Celestial Race’s bloodline started igniting, allowing him to resonate with this Fusang Divine Tree!

  Yes… you feel it too, don’t you? The Great Sui’s bloodline flowing through my veins!

  He circled around the tree, climbed onto it, diving in and out of the thick leaves and he murmured, “Great Sui planted you here and it has been more than 2,000,000 years since you last move, your master is gone and you are the only one left…..”

  “Can you feel the raging Great Sui bloodline in me….”

  “The amazing era of Fire Order Era is calling for you, are the battlecries of that era still echoing in your heart….”

  “Great Sui and you, the battles that you all fought so hard to suppress the darkness, do you still remember? Have you forgotten the singings of Great Sui?”

  The tree’s branches started waving under his words, as if it was moved by the callings again.

  Ancient Dao language sounded, like the singings of the ancient people, echoing deep from the dimensions; it was the praisings and singings that went mute for million years, it wa
s the song for the glorious era.

  In Zhong Yue’s forehead, the dragon headed and serpent bodied fire spirits revealed themselves, surrounded this ancient spirit root as they started singing deeply, synchronizing with the ancient beings’ humming.

  “The great age of Fire Order, where stars blinked brightly in the sky!”

  “The great days of Fire Order, where fire sparks and enlightened law and order!”

  “The great epoch of Fire Order, where justice and fairness repletes the universe!”

  “The great years of Fire Order, where light lead us through darkness!”

  “The great era of Fire Order, where we embraced the greatest Sui Sovereigns!”

  Fire started sparkling and in the blink of an eye, the Fusang Divine Tree turned into a blazing tree, a divine tree shrouded by the chaos fire that burned everything, lighting up the Valley of Tang, emitting bright light that seemingly chased the darkness in the ancient universe away!

  With a serious expression, Zhong Yue stood at the top of the tree. His presence merged with the Fusang Divine Tree, becoming one with it. Here was the place where the Great Sui and Great Si Ming met, the place where Great Sui created the totem pattern cultivation system and the place where he erased the Dark Age!

  Now at this exact location stood Zhong Yue, surrounded by chaos fire while underneath was the living beings that worshipped this tree, making him feel like he had turned the the era of darkness, where Great Sui lit up the universe.

  “Fu Mu, do you still remember those times?”

  Zhong Yue’s voice intensified, rumbling through the dimensions and ancient yet enormous power erupted from the tree right away!

  The word Fu in Fu Mu’s name was the origin of Fuxi’s Fu, Fu Mu was Fusang Tree, Xi was sunlight, this spirit root was Fuxi Celestial Race’s ancestral tree!

  Xin Huo stuttered and he murmured, “Great Sui….”

  “Fu Mu! Lend me your strength!”

  Zhong Yue roared and Fusang Tree’s divine energy burst out, standing tall in the ancient universe and endless sun emerged from the raging chaos fire, dancing around the tree.

  Seeing this, the four demon monarch spirits’ expression stiffened up and they shrieked, “Back! Fall back!”

  But it was already too late.

  With a simple point, the raging chaos fire and the suns swarmed the demon monarch spirits; the branches of the Fusang Tree were like dragons and the leaves on them seemed like continents, unleashing the ruthless strength and displaying the powerful form of the Fire Order Era perfectly!

  Hong long—-

  Suns flew out from the Valley of Tang’s sacred ground, crashed into the demon race’s camps and the fire swallowed them all. The demon gods struggled in the fire ocean but to no avail; they were quickly devoured, the camps became engulfed by the fire and everything got burned into dust!

  Even the six demon monarch spirits were ignited, the four demon monarch spirits wailed and shrieked as they charged towards the Void World as quickly as they could.

  Heavens, Secular Worlds, everything, was burnt into ash. The siege weapons collapsed in the fire and the fire pillars came charging out from the Valley of Tang Divine City, swallowing everything in their path. He Xi, Chen Gongzheng and the other peak demon Imperial Emperors too, lasted no more than seconds in the fire, not even their Yuan Shen survived!

  With their strength combined, the four demon monarch spirits charged into the Void Realm, but at that very second their feet entered the realm, they were burnt into ash. Just like that, four more monarch spirits were wiped out of existence in this universe!

  Of all those present, only Yang Yuzun managed to get out alive, as one who specialized in fire cultivation, he possessed the strongest resistance against the chaos fire. And with everything he had, he escaped.

  Some time later, the raging fire, branches and leaves calmed down, returning back to the tree and Fusang Divine Tree’s presence slowly faded and returned to normal. At the same time, Zhong Yue’s presence deteriorated rapidly, he felt weak in his knees all of a sudden and he fell from the top of the tree.

  Jin Hexi, on the other side, flew up from the ancient ship and held onto her husband, aiding him in touching the ground safely.

  The many Jinwu Clan’s elders approached them quickly, each looking at Zhong Yue in surprise and outside of Valley of Tang Divine City, the battlefield was already cleared. Everything was burnt into ash, the countless invaders were no more and all that was left were just fire sparkles and some bones.

  A moment later, after his body recovered, Zhong Yue struggled to get up and he bowed at the elders.

  “Master, how did you manage to activate the Fusang Tree?”

  An elder mustered his courage and asked, “This tree…. Not even the celestial monarch is able to fully activate it, even with the entire clan’s prayers, we could only utilize about 10-20 percent of its strength.”

  The other elders and the current Jinwu Clan’s clan master were also curious about this. When they prayed towards the tree, they were obviously hoping to utilize its power to fend off the enemies, they’d never hoped to wipe them out in one shot!

  With a smile, Zhong Yue looked towards the tree and calmly explained, “This tree, its an innate spirit root passed down by my ancestors, of course I can activate it.”

  Chapter 1166: To Paint With Two Brushes |

  “The spiritual root of heaven and earth passed down by the ancestors?”

  Jinwu Clan’s clan master and the others looked at each other with a blurry mind. They couldn’t comprehend what had happened. When Zhong Yue turned into a Fuxi, he was covered by fire and that hindered the visibility awfully.

  But when Zhong Yue claimed that the tree belonged to his ancestors, the elders all started thinking of Zhong Yue badly, fearing that he would rob them of this tree.

  After all, their future clan master was already married to Zhong Yue and if Zhong Yue took the tree with him, that would be a great loss to the Jinwu Clan.

  The Fusang Tree was the origin of the Valley of Tang, without the tree, there would be no Mountain Fu, no Chaos Fire Ocean or Chaos Turtle Fishing Stage. If Zhong Yue took the tree away, then the Jinwu Clan would lose their root.

  Thankfully, Zhong Yue shown no intention of taking the tree away with him. Hundun Yu kept the branch away but the massive fire spirits still surrounded the Fusang Tree, dancing around it and showing no sign of returning to Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen.

  “Fuxi, can you gift us the few Heavens you acquired in Innate Dao Mountain?”

  The fire spirit leader’s voice entered his mind, “We wish to cultivate the Fire Order Era’s Imperial Star and Heaven Court through the chaos fire and turn them all into a combined continent.”

  With a flick of his mind, Zhong Yue immediately activated the Heavens and flew them towards the Fusang Tree. The fire spirits hurriedly took over the Heavens and extracted the Imperial Star’s Heaven Court’s pieces in these Heavens, circling around these ancient sacred grounds and starting to refine them with the chaos fire.

  “Clan master, we need all the information you got on the innate god Bo Xun who was born in the Valley of Xi.”

  At the side, Jin Hexi asked Jin Yaoxian, “My teacher is isolated in the Valley of Xi right now and if we can find the recordings on Bo Xun’s symbiotic saint herb, perhaps we can locate it!”

  Immediately, the elders started searching the Jinwu Clan’s libraries and books, and some time later, they finally found something related to Bo Xun.

  “Sometime during the Fu Mountain Heavenly Sovereign Order Calender, a celestial was born in the Valley of Tang, residing in the Fusang Tree. Then, a demon rose from the Valley of Xi.”

  “Then, during the reign of Monarch Xi Hao, in Year 8600, a demon crow rose from the west, met with a rising sun and the setting sun fell into Star of Xi.”

  Jin Yaoxian frowned slightly, “This is all we have in our clan, is this Chaos Lotus Bo Xun’s symbiotic saint herb?”

  Zhong Yue shook his he
ad right away; Chaos Lotus was probably another innate spiritual root that was also in Fusang Tree’s level but was long gone. In the records, the god in the Valley of Tang was Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and the demon god in the Valley of Xi was Bo Xun. Their birth was corresponding, one born in the land where the suns rose and the other born in the land where the suns set, one was a celestial and the other a demon.

  During the reign of Monarch Xi Hao, the demon crow rose from the west, which was probably Bo Xun’s departure from Valley of Xi and the dawn breaks talked about the suns rising in the east, which told that he headed east.

  Meanwhile in the east, the sun rose and the rising sun ran into the setting sun, resulting in a ferocious war and the setting sun fell into Star of Xi. The setting sun here was most likely Bo Xun and Star of Xi was Fuxi Celestial Race’s Ancestral Star.

  The records of the departure of Bo Xun from Valley of Xi, his encounter with a strong foe who cultivated the great sun and the battle ensued right after the encountering, then the falling of Bo Xun and his crashing into the Ancestral Star.

  This record was about the battle between the inheritor and Bo Xun before Xin Huo’s slumber in 730,000 years ago!

  “What is Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s symbiotic saint herb?” asked Zhong Yue as he calmed himself down.

  If Bo Xun’s symbiotic saint herb’s information couldn’t be found, then locating Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s symbiotic saint herb would have the same result, he could locate Celestial Monarch Jin Wu through the Wall Painting Flower.

  Jin Yaoxian and the other elders immediately went through the books again and this time, they all shook their head as Jin Hexi replied, “I’ve never heard of master’s symbiotic saint herb.”

  “Could it be that Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and Bo Xun were born too late, making them inferior to the ancient Deity Kings so they didn’t have any?”

  Zhong Yue remained silent for a while, he tried to track the symbiotic saint herbs to locate Celestial Monarch Jin Wu or the Valley of Xi’s position through the Wall Painting Flower. But without any symbiotic saint herb, things became out of hand.
