Rise of Humanity

“Blurred? Then there should be nothing more else to glean on.” King Zi Guang startled, but never took it into heart. After all, with the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror exposing Zhong Yue’s identity as a Fuxi, it was more than enough reason to cut him down.

“Thirty to forty percent of Fuxi blood, that’s terrifying enough already. Fortunately, he was exposed early enough, otherwise we may have had a second Si Ming on our hands!” King Zi Guang turned to Realm Monarch Yunshan, “Senior Martial Brother Yunshan, my disciples are no match for him. Can you assist them with a few of your Heavenly Deity officers to force his true form out?”

Realm Monarch Yunshan was still in shock since the term ‘Fuxi’ was uttered, and as soon as King Zi Guang requested help, he nodded almost instantly. He asked, “Since senior martial brother has seen through him, why is there still a need to force him out revealing his true form?”

“He has an unparalleled presence backing him up, one from the ancient eras that ruled the heaven and earth. We must have solid and irrefutable evidence so things don’t get troublesome with that unparalleled presence.” King Zi Guang smiled, “You should know a thing or two about it this too?”

Realm Monarch Yunshan nodded, he thought, So, the goddess is really a Heavenly Monarch !

Immediately, he summoned ten Heavenly Deities to descend into the battlefield in Dong Ah’s and Xi He’s aid. At the same time, the heads of the races received orders from the Realm Monarch to not interfere with the battle or provide any help to Zhong Yue.

Up to this point, all King Zi Guang was waiting for was for Zhong Yue to reveal the Fuxi True Form. As soon as Zhong Yue cast it out, the images would be recorded as evidence and he could proceed in executing Zhong Yue’s life. With the recordings as a proof, even Goddess Shen Hou wouldn’t be able to do anything.

It must be the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror that is used to execute this young Fuxi, I shouldn’t involve myself too much in it , King Zi Guang thought, Else, even the imperial emperor can’t protect me if the goddess insists on venting her anger on me.

Although he was a trusted subject to the imperial emperor, the imperial emperor wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice him to appease the furious goddess; thus, even King Zi Guang couldn’t help but to think for himself.

Meanwhile, the ten Heavenly Deities had descended into the Lesser Void Heavenly Saint Realm with the direct orders given to them. Without any further ado, they joined the battle and surrounded the young man in the middle.

Shi Yinji, Jun Wudao, Ju Ying and the others were infuriated; they summoned their followers and rushed toward the battlefield. On the other hand, Old Man Six Paths and Shi Buyi also dashed forward to salvage the trapped young man.

All of a sudden, Queen Shi Ji’s voice rumbled into their ears, “Yinji, come back!”

A Ju Fang Celestial Race’s middle-aged True Deity flashed over while shouting as well, “Lord Qi Yue, the Dharma King has ordered you to stand down.”

Then, a rainbow bridge fell down from the sky, curling around Jun Wudao like a silk scarf and pulling her away. When Jun Wudao landed on the ground again, a few beautiful ladies were standing beside her, she exclaimed in shock, “Mother!”

One of them, an elder of the Tian Suo Celestial Race, was exactly her mother who shook her head and said, “Wanjun, I’ve been given direct orders from the Realm Monarch, you are to be watched closely in not providing any help to the human boy.”

Jun Wudao’s heart throbbed, she quickly glanced around and saw similar incidents happening all around.

Yan Zhen was pinned down by a celestial emperor who appeared to be her teacher that rushed over from the Elemental Realm just to stop her from interfering in the battle.

Yu Bochuan and Li Tianxing were also stopped by their respective clansmen and teachers. And although Shi Buyi and Old Man Six Paths were powerful, it was impossible still for them to break into the array formation in such a short time!

“Why!?” Jun Wudao questioned anxiously, “Why are we not allowed to save him!?”

The beautiful woman shook, “The real reasons are not made clear, but the orders given must be executed. We are all here to stop you all.”

Jun Wudao’s heart palpitated heavily and she looked into the array formation. The ten gods, Dong Ah and Xi He were working together to take down Zhong Yue.

The ten gods were far too strong, any single one of them was stronger than Dong Ah and Xi He. After all, the two Zi Wei Qi Practitioners were two cultivation levels apart from the Heavenly Deities.

In the midst of the immense pressure, Zhong Yue finally woke up from the state of sudden Dao attainment. His eyes opened and he suddenly found himself trapped inside a marvelous looking totem patterns, surrounded by ten Heavenly Deities, Dong Ah and Xi He.

The array formation was incredibly high; he felt like a tiny ant in front of it.

On the other hand, the ten gods, Dong Ah and Xi He appeared to be incredibly grand and powerful as the array formation boosted their presence in it.

Zhong Yue’s heart sank and immediately understood the current situation,These two young Qi Practitioners are not from the 3,000 Six Paths World. Their skills, power, and arts are far more exquisite than those here, and both their mortal bodies are in the Pure Yang state.

And what kind of Qi Practitioners could cultivate the Pure Yang mortal body?

He could have only achieved it with the help of the [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture]. Moreover, the extreme state was the Fuxi Clan’s exclusive cultivation technique, it was unheard of to the other races.

No other else could have learned it except the ancient figures who reincarnated themselves into the Fuxi Clan!

His face turned dark and gloomy, clearly Dong Ah and Xi He couldn’t possibly those ancient figures, yet they had cultivated the Pure Yang mortal body. The only explanation for it was that they had access to the heritage of the ancient figures!

Their masters, or teachers, or anyone senior to them, would be one of those ancient figures who’ve reincarnated themselves in the Fuxi Clan!

They are from the Zi Wei Galaxy!

With this hypothesis came the question of why were they suddenly here in the Wei Shen Six Paths World and specifically targeting him!

As for the ten Heavenly Deities, they should be from the Wei Shen Six Paths World’s Heaven Court. But I hold the title of a lord, I am Lord Yue, these gods are a level lower in status to a lord like me. That means they are only acting under the Realm Monarch’s orders. Which begs the question… why is Realm Monarch Yunshan trying to kill me?

Zhong Yue waltzed within the confined space, deftly avoiding the incoming attacks from the Heavenly Deities. However, Xi He furtively flashed to his back and launched a surprise attack from behind him!

Shua—

A scarlet cloak burst out from Zhong Yue’s clothes and a sun surged out within, clashing against Xi He’s palms.

The scarlet cloak contained a surge of the moon god’s powerful Innate Tai Yin Qi, along with the Innate Tai Yang Qi in the round sun, the coalesced Yin Yang power had pushed the young lady back a few steps with blood trickling out from her mouth.

There must be someone higher from the Six Paths World giving the orders, one who has greater authority than Realm Monarch Yunshan. That can be the only explanation for why Realm Monarch Yunshan sent his men against me.

Zhong Yue was flitting around in the array formation, evading even with the totem pillars that were shooting out countless chains formed from marvelous totem patterns.

If when his subconscious reactions alone was sufficient to easily take on the array formation, what problem would it be when he was now fully conscious and supported by his calculation technique?

Realm Monarch Yunshan could have sent someone strong like the Deity Emperor to effortlessly deal with me or even a pack of Deity Emperors. But he sent only ten Heavenly Deities who aren’t much stronger than me. Which means his true intention is not to kill me, or more like whoever from the Zi Wei Galaxy gave the order didn’t want me dead. Then, what’s his engame?

Suddenly, a thought flashed across his mind as everything became clear as day,He wants to force the Fuxi True Form out of me!

That’s it!

Either Bo Di or the Realm Monarch Bo Luo has told the Zi Wei Imperial Star about me, leading them to suspect my origins. However, in fear of Goddess Shen Hou, I am to being forced to reveal the Fuxi True Form to give them a reasonable excuse to deal with me. So as long as I don’t show any impressions regarding the Fuxi Clan, I can still survive this!

As he thought, he slowly made his way to the side of the array formation and was on the verge of leaving.

“Lord Yue, please go back in!” Suddenly, armies of golden armored soldiers began guarding the perimeter outside of the array formation. A general armed with a golden spear poked the spear forward and forced Zhong Yue back into the array formation, he said in a solemn voice, “Orders from His Majesty, Lord Yue are to be contained in the array formation!”

Zhong Yue glanced around, his face grew dark and gloomy. Not only did the weaponized soldiers seal every corner, they had even formed layer after layer of array formation around the Million Gods Suppressing The Heaven Gate!

“The Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud are here, who dares to harm our King Zhong!?”

All of a sudden, Heavenly King Lu, Celestial Emperor Qian Shan and the others arrived. Immediately, their arrival shattered the soldiers’ array formations to the ground. Although crippled, their power remained and they were still powerful enough to easily tear apart the soldiers’ array formations, opening up a path for Zhong Yue to leave.

“Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Clouds, is treason your decision?” Queen Shi Ji walked over and blocked their paths while smiling, “Blind and crippled, the 18 of you are best off living in seclusion and dying in an unknown ditch. Glorious things like these are no longer suitable for you. If you dare to interfere with the Heaven’s will again, then death will fall upon you!”

As the foes met, their eyes flashed red with burning fury. Heavenly King Lu and the others right away burst out their killing intent on the queen.

“Stand down, Eighteen Emperors.” Zhong Yue’s placid voice came from within the array formation, “It’s just a small matter, there is no need for brothers and sisters to step in. Please, stand back calmly. If Realm Monarch Yunshan said I can’t step out of the array formation, then I’ll just stay in it.”

The Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud heard him, but were still reluctant to stand back and wanted to fight with Queen Shi Ji. Then, Heavenly King Lu said solemnly, “Stand down, we’ll move back.”

In the Heaven Gate array formation, Zhong Yue and the opponents were moving all around in it, slipping through one another totem pillars. But all of a sudden, a serious of explosions occured in the array formation as the totem pillars were crushed into bits by Zhong Yue.

As the totem pillars crumbled, the Heaven Gate fell as well. The array formation was broken!

Zhong Yue could be heard laughing loudly as he moved out from the ruins, he said, “People, the Realm Monarch only ordered you to not let me leave the array formation. But since the array formation is now no more, I doesn’t counted as me not walking out of it anymore, correct?”

Then, he bolted into the sea of soldiers and flashed out like a nocked arrow let loose. The soldiers were hesitant, not knowing if they should stop him or not.

Behind, the ten Heavenly Deities, Dong Ah and Xi He followed. Xi He shrieked at the top of her lungs, “Why didn’t you stop him!?”

One of the generals shook in answer, “Without His Majesty’s order, who dares to stop him? He is a lord after all…”

Xi He swung her hand toward the general face’s whilst he frowned and slipped aside. It was at that moment that a space rift cracked open in the sky and the Realm Monarch Yunshan’s voice rumbled through the endless space, “Stop him.”

By this time, Zhong Yue had already flashed by a few of the array formations, but there were still layers of them before him. As soon as the order was given, the soldiers were galvanized into action and activated the array formations, causing the the dimension to stagnate and the space barrier to harden!

Zhong Yue kept mum, his body flickered vigorously in their visions. Every time he reappeared, he would already be thousands of feet away without even triggering the array formations by the slightest.

“Wounds are acceptable, but his life will remain intact.” Realm Monarch Yunshan’s voice sounded again, this time, appearing to be incredibly far high up above them.
