  “Si Ming, why did you let Demon Monarch Yang Hou go?”

  Gu Yue’s eyes glinted and asked, “You and I have [Daoless Heavens], and we are all in his Yuan Shen Secret Realm when he is seriously injured, so it would not be much of a problem to take him down. You, however, activated Six Paths Tian Lun and left, what kind of agreement did the two of you make?”

  Si Ming returned an insincere smile, “You are killing that existence that activates Drum of Dusk, Monarch Chang Sheng is running away, leaving me alone against Yang Hou, do you expect me to kill him alone?”

  Gu Yue smiled, “You’d always take a bite off me when I ask for a favor from you, so I wouldn’t buy it if you tell me that you did not bite a piece of meat off him when you let Yang Hou go. Come on, share with me your agreements.”

  Si Ming burst out laughing and she said, “You really are persistent, aren’t you? It really is nothing, just a little tiny Chaos Pact.”

  Zhong Yue’s heart thumped right away, for the Void Contract, Heavenly Daos Oath and Chaos Pact were the three great contracts, among the trio, Void Contract had the least binding power, only applicable to all postnate living beings and completely useless against innate gods.

  Heavenly Daos Oath on the other hand, was strong but it could be neglected by powerful ancient Deity Kings.

  Only the Chaos Pact was the strongest for it was inevitable once signed!

  And the Chaos Pact Si Ming forced Demon Monarch Yang Hou to sign was definitely not as “tiny” as she described, perhaps Demon Monarch Yang Hou was now entirely controlled by this lady and had no ways to run!

  How unfortunate.

  Zhong Yue shook his head, Demon Monarch was very powerful, on par with Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, but he now fell into Si Ming’s control, which was quite a pity.

  Thousand-winged ancient ship arrived at Jinwu Clan’s sacred ground, sailed into Valley of Tang and the others hurriedly welcomed and escorted them right into the nest hung high at the top of Fu Sang Tree.

  Throughout these days, Jin Hexi and Hun Dunyu who remained in Jinwu Clan, helped to fend off the invading demon races; Hun Dunyu fought the demon races away with the Fu Sang Tree Branch, Jin Hexi overwatched the battle, dispatching soldiers to any site in need of help to fend off the invaders.

  In the divine city within Valley of Tang, more and more races gathered, the celestial generals, leaders and commanders arrived accordingly and prepared for a counter attack.

  Ever since Great Sui, Valley of Tang had been titled as the first sacred ground in ancient universe, the beacon that lit up the dark universe, this was the source of civilization, where Great Sui created the totem pattern cultivation system, carved and created language on the Fu Sang Tree, hence, this place was the sacred ground to all races in the ancient universe.

  Though there were still some celestial races that took innate Celestial Monarch as their supreme leader, as one that was birthed in the Valley of Tang, Jinwu Clan represented the heritage of Great Sui, which granted them the power to stand against innate Celestial Monarch and receive the support of the ancient universe’s celestial races.

  Now, right after the many celestial races received news about the Jinwu Clan defeating the demon races, they swarmed right to the Valley of Tang to support their leader, the Jinwu Clan, in exchange for protection and also to form an alliance to defeat the demon races.

  But among the reinforcements, there were only two sovereign races, the Dafan Clan and the Tianyao Clan.

  The other three sovereign races, Jitong Clan, Moyun Clan, and Dayu Clan, on the other hand, belonged to the innate Celestial Monarch’s power.

  The Dafan Clan and Jinwu Clan were in a marital relationship, Tianyao Clan on the other hand, was a monster race, resulting in them not being acknowledged by the other celestial races. They had no position in innate Celestial Monarch’s palace so they turned to the Jinwu Clan instead.

  “Xi’er, you are an unrivalled commander, so you will be leading the counter attack against the demon races. I will leave a few clones to you.”

  Zhong Yue said to Jin Hexi, “I am after all, the man who married you, which makes me part of the Jinwu Clan, but just part of, not truly one of you. If I command the army, they will think that the Jinwu Clan had turned to Xian Tian Palace, making your teacher a level lower than Mu Xiantian. He will definitely take this chance to swallow Jinwu Clan. But if you lead, as the future clan master of the Jinwu Clan and my wife, you will be able to hold the ancient universe’s army power while I hold Zi Wei’s, if Mu Xiantian robbs me of my army power, you will still keep yours.”

  Jin Hexi’s heart turned a little cold and she mumbled, “Darling, you mean….”

  “From now on, stay on the ancient universe and never return to Zi Wei. The humans from Star Torrent Fortress will stay with you, only Xing Tian, Shi Tuo and Hun Dunyu will follow me back.”

  Zhong Yue stood beside her, looking at the endless army and said, “I am ensuring a back up for myself in the ancient universe. With you in the ancient universe, the more power you hold and the stronger you are, the more Mu Xiantian is afraid of hurting me and the safer I will be. Remember, don’t wipe the demon races out in one strike, leave some of them so that they can fight back to save yourself a reason not to heed Mu Xiantian’s summon.”

  Jin Hexi nodded and something struck her suddenly, she turned to the tree and said happily, “Teacher is awake!”

  Without any hesitation, the happy Zhong Yue immediately rushed towards the tree with his wife lovingly.

  On the top of the tree, the nest was covered in golden light before a sun slowly emerged, with Celestial Monarch Jin Wu sitting with his legs cross within the sun, emitting powerful monarch might and gave off a sturdy vibe like the fortified walls of a stronghold. His presence made Valley of Tang appeared even more saintful and the countless Daos emerged.

  Outside of the valley, the many celestial races who saw this scene were thrilled and they all cheered happily.

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was the back bone to all of them, and his appearance boosted the morale of the many celestial races!

  Zhong Yue and Jin Hexi entered the nest and looked towards Celestial Monarch Jin Wu worriedly. Though Celestial Monarch Jin Wu appeared powerful and energetic, the duo who was closer to him right now could see through his trick, he was just pretending to be strong and in good condition to boost the army’s morale.

  His wounds, were not going to recover that easily.

  “The nest is cracked but there is no little birdie,” grumbled the little Xin Huo in Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean.

  “You’re here.”

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu removed his disguise, his monarch presence faded slowly and he limped a little, fortunately, there was no one else. Two seats emerged from the nest and after they sat, Zhong Yue and Jin Hexi caringly asked, “Your injuries….”

  “Might need a hundred years or so to completely heal.”

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu smiled, “It’s already good enough to have Monarch Chang Sheng heal me. I almost died back then and it took me more than ten thousand years to heal. Son-in-law, you really are my lucky star!”

  Zhong Yue visualized a galaxy and asked, “Celestial Monarch, familiar with this galaxy?”

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu examined it closely and his expression changed a little, “It’s rather familiar, I’ve seen it somewhere…. That’s it! The ancient battlefield, a dangerous place called Reincarnation Burial Ground!”

  “Reincarnation Burial Ground?”

  Zhong Yue was startled, he couldn’t help but curious over the strange name. The Reincarnation Burial Ground, a burial ground for the Reincarnations?

  Jin Hexi was puzzled as well. Clearly, she too, didn’t know such a place exist in the ancient universe.

  “There are five worlds in this cosmos, the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds, the ancient universe, Zi Wei Galaxy, Void World, and Dao World. But rumors had it there was a sixth world, the Reincarnation
Burial Ground was said to be the sixth world in this cosmos.”

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu said, “I’ve been there once too. The rules of heaven and earth there is, different from the rest of the worlds, hmm, very, very distinct…”

  He held a weird expression as he continued, “There, the rules were strange and bizarre. A few monarchs in the ancient days were said to come from there. Their cultivation base and Daos were different than ours. Rumors said it was the sixth world, you should head there sometime if possible…”

  Jin Hexi asked, “The 3,000 Six Paths Worlds are where the mortals lived, the ancient universe belonged to the innate gods, the Zi Wei occupied by the postnate gods, the Void World is where spirits reside after death, and only Dao Gods can live in the Dao World. If the Reincarnation Burial Ground is the sixth world, then what is it?”

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu said, “After the living beings die, their spirits reside in the Void World. But where to after their spirits have died?”

  He paused for a second, then continued, “It was said that after the spirits die, they will reside in the Reincarnation Burial Ground. But what puzzled me is that the Reincarnation Burial Ground didn’t become a world of its own, but remain part of our ancient universe. I don’t know why exactly. The last time I was there, I was placed in great danger and I stepped away from it. I suspect, there may be an ancient Deity King living in it! Furthermore, I hear that one of the six demon monarch races, the Diling Clan, comes from the Reincarnation Burial Ground.”

  “Diling Clan?”

  Zhong Yue was surprised.

  There was a Diling Clan expert, Di Yue, involved in the battle on Jinwu Clan’s Valley of Tang. But he was killed by Zhong Yue and the Fusang Divine Tree.

  What a shame I didn’t capture him as a slave back then, Zhong Yue sighed in his heart.

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu struggled to get up, he said, “Little in law, I will not follow you in your expedite. My injuries have yet recovered and the attack on the demon races needed my presence.”

  Zhong Yue thanked, he said, “Hundun Yu and I will suffice.”Read more at L isnovel

  Celestial Monarch Jin Wu thought, “Oh, the little guy from the Hundun Clan? Those in the Reincarnation Burial Ground will most likely show the Hundun Clan some face. With Hundun Yu by your side, you might be safer.”

  Then, he visualized the map to the Reincarnation Burial Ground and imparted it into Zhong Yue’s mind. Zhong Yue studied it carefully and found it being at a strange location.

  The ancient universe shaped like two plates facing each other horizontally. Most galaxies were located in the space between the plates with only a few on the outside. Whereas the Reincarnation Burial Ground was not anywhere in between the plates!

  There was no top and bottom in the cosmos. But if one has to fixate the Zi Wei as the top, then the Reincarnation Burial Ground would be placed at below of the ancient universe.

  It was a region far away from the ancient universe. One has to travel through the vast land of nothingness where nothing exists for a long time before reaching it.

  Furthermore, the Reincarnation Burial Ground wasn’t even huge, it was just a tiny spot compared to the whole of the ancient universe.

  No wonder the star maps given to me by Mu Xiantian and Fu Li didn’t have this place. It sure is hard to locate. Furthermore, the land of nothingness has nothing for one to navigate his way through it, it’s incredibly easy to get lost in it. In addition, the Reincarnation Burial Ground is shrouded in eternal darkness, if lost his way, there will be no way back anymore.

  Zhong Yue mulled. He has the incarnations he could leave behind as beacons to help him navigate his way to the Reincarnation Burial Ground, he should be able to do it.

  “Celestial monarch, do you know Monarch Chang Sheng?” Zhong Yue probed, “I hear from Monarch Chang Sheng he was originally Dao Venerate Fu Min’s saint herb. It was Dao Venerate Fu Min that gave him the chance to cultivate and eventually he became a monarch. It is also his medicinal efficacy that saved you this time.”

  “Monarch Chang Sheng is Dao Venerate Fu Min’s saint herb?”

  Celestial Monarch Jin wu was surprised, then he thought and said, “Back in the ancient days, I sure saw him close around Dao Venerate before. But I don’t know if he is Dao Venerate’s saint herb. Beings like him who’ve cultivated from a saint herb are very sensitive over their true nature. It was not wise for me to ask much.”

  Zhong Yue pondered. There were mysteries clouding the truth on Monarch Chang Sheng, but at the moment, he could only still trust him.

  After a few days, Zhong Yue waved goodbye to Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and parted ways with Jin Hexi. He and Hundun Yu went on an expedition to the Reincarnation Burial Ground.

  Along with them were Xing Tian and Shi Tuo. However, they weren’t following him to the Reincarnation Burial Ground. Zhong Yue would pass by the Ninth Divine City on his way and he would make a stop to leave them there. Afterward, Xing Tian and Shi Tuo would make their own way back to the Imperial Star.

  I wonder how is Monarch Chang Sheng now… On the deck, Zhong Yue thought, Now, he should be back in Zi Wei already I guess?

  …

  “Senior Martial Brother Xiang Mo, here you here!”

  In the demon land of the ancient universe, a galaxy where demonic palaces were raised everywhere. Demon Monarch Xiang Mo was the supreme ruler to the tens of demon races living in this galaxy. Most of them were his descendants but these demon races were no monarch races.

  This was because Demon Monarch Xiang Mo has a mixed bloodline himself. Furthermore, he has nine heads and countless wives. Thus, his descendants were all different from one another, there was not a united race among his descendants.

  Some of them have the elephant-headed and human-bodied, some were elephant-headed but dragon-bodied, some were elephant-headed and spider-bodied. Their looks and the bloodline in them were not uniform, thus, they were not considered one of the demon monarch races and they were not up to match to the monarch races either. At most, they would add up as a strong demon race among the rest of the demon races.

  At this time, inside of the grandest palace, Demon Monarch Xiang Mo’s face changed drastically. He looked at the incoming man with the eyelids of his remaining four heads thumping heavily. He shouted, “Chang Sheng, how dare you come to me, who gave you the courage to confront me! I am a disciple to Demon Monarch, are you not afraid of my teacher killing you!?”

  Monarch Chang Sheng strolled leisurely in the palace, touring himself around as he appreciated the luxurious decorators in the palace. He smiled and answered, “Don’t boast your own courage here. You are already a monarch, but why are you still so timid? I am feeling shame for your timidness. As for threatening me with Demon Monarch, are you trying to mock my intelligence? Where is it? Hand it out now. You should know why I’m here.”

  Demon Monarch Xiang Mo’s fats were quivering but he didn’t move for a long time.

  “Don’t you try anything stupid. Five of your heads are cut away and diminished and the Six Paths Reincarnation in your body is shattered. You are no match for me.”

  Monarch Chang Sheng said calmly, “You know my prowess, not even you in your peak state can defeat me, let alone now when you only have at most thirty percent of your overall prowess. Hand me the thing I want and I will spare your life.”

  Demon Monarch Xiang Mo kept quiet for a moment, then, he took out a saint herb and tossed it to Monarch Chang Sheng.

  Monarch Chang Sheng was overjoyed to receive the saint herb while the saint herb was shuddering heavily. It was blooming in bright colors before but once it was in Monarch Chang Sheng’s hand, it started to wither as its medicinal efficacy was sucked away from it.

  In just seconds, the saint herb was reduced into a pile of ashes.

  Meanwhile, Monarch Chang Sheng’s aura grew stronger. His eyes were closed like a foodie appreciating a delicacy. Satisfaction could be clearly seen in him. After a while, he opened his eyes and murmured
, “Two thousand six hundred and forty-six more…”

  “Chang Sheng, you’ve had what you want, why don’t you leave now?” Demon Monarch Xiang Mo said solemnly.

  Monarch Chang Sheng nodded, he turned and left.

  Demon Monarch Xiang Mo heaved a breath of relief as he watches Monarch Chang Sheng leaving, he whispered softly to himself, “This brat, he wants to transcend as a heaven and earth spiritual root? Hehe, him becoming a spiritual root, that’ll make him a herb to the ancient Deity Kings too…”

  Shua—

  Huge roots suddenly pierced through the demon palace and curled around Demon Monarch Xiang Mo. Then, countless smaller roots have made their ways into his body through the openings and pores on his body. They drilled into his Yuan Shen and crazily sucked on his blood essence, psyche, and Daos!

  The demon palace crumbled into ruins while countless roots raised Monarch Chang Sheng in midair.

  “Caught you, I’ve caught you!”

  Monarch Chang Sheng smirked, “It’s rare to bump into a weakened monarch like you, wouldn’t it be a waste if I don’t consume you?”

  Demon Monarch Xiang Mo was shocked and angered, he shouted, “You!”

  Immediately, huge roots drilled into his mouth while Monarch Chang Sheng smiled, “Me? Me what? Not keeping my promise? I never said I was a promise keeper, but you trusted me? What a fool, you should’ve signed the Chaos Pact with me first before handing me the saint herb. That way, I will be sure to keep my hands off you. Hehehe, you all think the saint herbs are your nutrients, your delicacies. But in my eyes, you lots are the food and the nutrients! I need all of you, I want more food…”

  After a few months, the thousand-winged ancient ship reached the Ninth Divine City and left Xing Tian and Shi Tuo In the city. Then, it sailed for the Reincarnation Burial Ground. After a few days, Zhong Yue created an incarnation on a planet before moving on.

  Another few days later, Zhong Yue placed down another incarnation. Every few days, Zhong Yue would leave an incarnation behind on his path while he travels for the Reincarnation Burial Ground. These incarnations formed a straight line and as long as he continued down this straight line, he would’ve arrived in the Reincarnation Burial Ground.
