“Damn it, don’t turn into my looks!”
“Here, catch him, quick!”
….
Zhong Yue shapeshifted into the soldiers and he sneaked around, stirring up chaos among them as he ran towards the outer area with the help of the many soldiers.
“Bunch of garbage!”
In Heaven Court, Realm Monarch Yunshan’s expression did not look good at all for with so many people and such power, they failed to seize a human and instead, they were completely disrupted by him, which was very embarrassing.
“Where is Heavenly King Shang?”
Just as Zhong Yue was running away, Realm Monarch Yunshan’s voice was heard saying, “Send out your eight generals!”
“Understood!” replied Heavenly King Shang, “Tian Ting, Tian Shi, Tian Jue, Tian Ming, Tian Hun, Tian Gan, Tian Chu and Tian Xi, get down there and help them to located Lord Yue.”
The eight generals immediately descend from the cracked dimension in the skies and started using their unique abilities as their senses slowly spread through the surroundings.
….
Zhong Yue’s heart thumped right away as he knew that the generals locating him was only a matter of time!
He might be able to have his bloodline, soul, and fate hidden, but when it came to the eight generals, he will not be able to hide all of these from them.
Thus, he hastened up his speed and shapeshifted into a soldier before running as fast as he could. But to his dismay, Tian Chu laughed and said, “He’s here!”
Tentacles flew out from the back of Tian Chu right away and they whipped towards Zhong Yue while the other eight generals immediately locked onto Zhong Yue as they all shouted, “Please hold your steps, Lord Yue!”
Seeing this, Zhong Yue no longer kept out with his plays. He turned back to himself, stretched out his golden crow wings and flew towards a portal in a corner within Heaven Realm; his speed was so fast that even with the heaven and earth sealed by the soldiers and the dimensions locked off, the eight generals still couldn’t keep up!
Zhong Yue flew quickly towards his target and just as he was one step away from freedom, a sigh was heard, “Fuxi, with so many people out to get you, you still managed to slip away from them, you truly represent one of the eight great royal races’ from the previous generation… What a pity….”
Tremendous divine aura rained down from the skies and made the seals planted by the soldiers look like a joke before it pressed towards Zhong Yue with relentless power.
Right away, along with his Yuan Shen and secret realms, his bones creaked under the oppressing pressure.
As the pressure continued to mount to unbearable levels, his Fuxi Yuan Shen emerged uncontrollably in an attempt to resist the divine aura and at the same time, he unconsciously revealed his Fuxi True Form!
“Heh, there we go, the innate divine body of Fuxi!”
The voice said and the pressure vanished without a sign while Zhong Yue flew away quickly towards the teleportal.
As he flew, totem carvings were launched towards the teleportal that was being destroyed by a few gods to prevent him from escaping.
They had already destroyed a few pillars right now but when Zhong Yue’s totem carvings merged into the teleportal, the damaged teleportal immediately lit up and a pillar of light launched up towards the skies.
One after another, Zhong Yue slipped right past the gods and disappeared right into the portal.
I’ve shown my true form now. Goddess Shen Hou might not be able to protect me anymore. All I can do now is get out of this place, hide my bloodline and wait for a chance.
As soon as he thought of this, a mirror flew out from the Wei Shen Six Path World’s Heaven Court, which enlarged each time it spun.
The mirror enlarged bit by bit, revealing the continent within the mirror. All of a sudden, the mirror lit up and shined at the teleportal cosmic wave Zhong Yue was in and the cosmic wave was sucked right into the mirror.
In the Heaven Court, King Zi Guang waved his hand and the mirror flew back from the Heaven Realm in high speed. As it flew towards King Zi Guang, it’s speed decreased gradually and landed quietly in his hand.
“Though there are some turbulences, we still got what we wanted,” said a relieved King Zi Guang towards Realm Monarch Yunshan, “Senior martial brother, now that we have seizes our target, I suppose the higher-ups can now sleep in peace and that includes you too. Thank you for your contribution this time, King Zi Guang will definitely say a few nice words for you in front of the imperial emperor.”
Realm Monarch Yunshan immediately replied, “I have to say that I am quite embarrassed. I wanted to help but in the end, you still had to carry on this task by yourself because of my useless soldiers. I dare not claim any credits in this task.”
Now that he was caught, Zhong Yue would definitely be slammed with a death punishment and with Goddess Shen Hou, a Heavenly Monarch presence, who was supporting Zhong Yue at the back, Realm Monarch Yunshan clearly knew that he would be killed by Goddess Shen Hou if he claimed any credit.
Thus, without any hesitation, he declined King Zi Guang’s offer. After all, he was sly and cunning, otherwise, he wouldn’t still be a Realm Monarch now.
King Zi Guang on the other hand, knew about this as well and all he did was smile softly and said as he summoned his disciples back, “This is an important matter. I need to hurry back to the imperial emperor and report back to him and after that, I have to explain things to the Earthly Sovereign Heavenly Monarch. I should not tarry any longer.”
Right away, Realm Monarch Yunshan said, “Of course. Please.”
Seconds later, Dong Ah and Xi He returned to the Heaven Court, both were embarrassed and remained silent as King Zi Guang said, “Cheer up. He is a Fuxi and that race had conquered this universe for more than a million years. The Fuxi alone had a total of 23 reigns of Earthly Sovereign Heavenly Monarchs of all the 72 reigns in the Earth Order era, making them extremely formidable. With such power, it is normal that there would still be one or two scrubs that slipped through the net. Don’t take this defeat too seriously or it will affect you in your future cultivation.”
Dong Ah and Xi He nodded and they bowed, “Teacher, what are you going to do with this Fuxi?”
“He will be handled by Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror for the moment before I hand over the mirror to Realm Monarch Bo Luo. I must not involve myself too deeply in this matter,” replied King Zi Guang with some form of hidden meaning behind his words, “Right now, there are still some that still think of the older days and they might be feeling slightly unhappy. If I get too involved, not only will I be killed, I also risk having my soul and spirit completely destroyed forever.”
Hearing this, the two disciples immediately stopped asking anymore.
Then, they boarded King Zi Guang’s carriage and they headed right towards Bo Luo Six Path World. A month time later, the teleportal cosmic wave carrying them slowed down under some unknown power and endless mist started swarming towards them from the dark space and halted them.
“I knew that there will be some of the undying pests that will step forth to stop us.”
King Zi Guang sneered and without standing up, he placed a zither in front of him, played a mysterious song and as a groan was heard, the mist dispersed, leaving behind some blood stains.
And just as King Zi Guang was about to extract the blood, the blood evaporated cleanly.
“You’re a cautious one, aren’t you?”
The cosmic wave’s speed returned to normal as soon as the mist dispersed and a few days later, ghostly shrieks were heard. The many ladies, Dong Ah and Xi He immediately looked out to see what happened and all they saw was a barren plain that appeared out of nowhere. Bones scattered everywhere in the plain and the scene was extremely eerie.
Suddenly, the bones all stood up and turned into skeletons with a human head and serpent body. They all reached their hands towards the carriage and upon grabbing onto the carriage, they stubbornly clung onto it.
“You are all dead already, out of my way!”
King Zi Guang got serious and he no longer played the zither but instead, he stood out and hacked his sword towards the hands.
The carriage then went right into the barren plain and with a loud explosion, this plain that carried endless bones vanished.
“Hmph, puny tricks!”
King Zi Guang let out a cold humphed and suddenly, overwhelming blood ocean gushed out from the dark dark universe. Wave after wave, the ocean seemingly swallowed the universe within in.
This time, King Zi Guang sweated coldly and he immediately ordered, “These are the doings of those factions very close to Fuxi. I will do my best to deal with this blood ocean. But in the meantime, I will be completely occupied. You will have to handle this carriage your own. Remember, no matter what you see, ignore them all or you won’t even know it when you’re dead!”
King Zi Guang then removed his headpiece, untied his hair and stood on the top of the carriage. He then swung his sword and dove right into the blood ocean with the carriage.
“Remember, ignore what you see!” shouted King Zi Guang.
Chapter 752: Devastating Bloodied Tidal Wave |
“Why is there a vast blood ocean here?”
In the carriage, one of the ladies looked blankly at the front where King Zi Guang hacked the waves apart to protect the carriage. Rogue waves raised and swarmed towards them and it seemed to like there were some kind of vile creatures lurking within the water. Each time the carriage was about to be swallowed by the tidal waves, King Zi Guang would cut the waves apart.
“This is an enmity blood ocean formed by Fuxi Celestial blood!”
King Zi Guang’s voice came from the outside, “After that one sided battle, Fuxi Celestial blood spilled all across the universe. The fallen Fuxi warriors’ blood and bodies then turned into this blood ocean. Their angry souls were furious at their extinction, thus, they refused to enter Six Path Reincarnation and with that, these angry wandering souls turned into the vicious souls they are now.”
“So that’s how it is.” said the lady, “Master really knows a lot of things.”
Suddenly, another King Zi Guang’s voice came from the top of the carriage, “Qing Er, I told you, whatever you see and hear is all fake. Who were you speaking to?”
The lady called Qing Er stunned for a moment and replied, “Of course it’s me that I’m talking to….”
The other ladies around here all shivered right away upon hearing the two King Zi Guang voices, which came from the blood ocean and the carriage’s roof respectively!
Just now, the voice Qing Er was talking came from the blood ocean!
Suddenly, Qing Er leaped down from the carriage into the blood ocean while a huge face emerged from the blood ocean and swallowed her down with Qing Er still putting up a smiling face.
The others in the carriage did not manage to stop her in time and they all felt a cold shivering down their spine in this scene.
What Qing Er saw and heard, they did not know. The reason she jumped down was unknown along with her death.
This blood ocean was endless, and the portal’s cosmic wave was completely useless here; all they could do was channel their own power into the carriage to keep it moving while King Zi Guang tried his best to repel the blood ocean.
Sometime later, the ladies, Dong Ah and Xi He finally saw a continent appearing in front of them gradually and they felt relieved right away, “We’ve finally reached the end of the blood ocean!”
Just when they were about to get down from the carriage, a horrid Xi He immediately shouted, “We are still in the space, how can there be land here?”
But it was too late; one of the ladies had already stepped out from the carriage and just when she was about to get back in after she heard Xi He’ warning, a whirlpool appeared beneath her, sucking her in and crushing her into pieces!
Seconds later, Dong Ah shrieked, “Teacher told us that everything we see and hear is all fake! We must not believe our eyes and ears now!”
Suddenly, a voice came from the carriage saying, “So… If what we see and hear is all fake, then are all of you in the carriage fake or real?”
The atmosphere became engulfed in silence. King Zi Guang’s wives and his two disciples glanced at each other wordlessly.
Then to their horror, they realized that there were twenty-two of them in the carriage; back then, there were 23 of them and with the two ladies that got killed by the blood ocean, there should only be 21 of them right now!
The worst part was that they failed to identify who the extra one was!
They looked at each other and they realized that everyone’s faces were extremely familiar, thus, no one knew who the extra person was.
“You guess it,” a laugh came from the carriage again, but no one was able to pinpoint where it came from.
Their faces turned pale and this time, with a shriek, someone launched an attack, causing the carriage to descend into chaos as everyone attacked each other to protect themselves.
After some time, the carriage finally got out from the blood ocean and right away, the blood ocean trembled and disappeared from the universe as if it never appeared.
King Zi Guang let out a relieved breath upon seeing this. He then got down from the carriage’s roof and when he entered the carriage, a thick and bloodied smell gushed out from the doors. King Zi Guang’s expression turned gloomy and he looked around, only to see blood and flesh splattered all over in the carriage. In this trip, he brought along 23 beauties with him and his disciples but now, only four of them remained, each hiding and shivering at a corner and they were all consumed by fear!
Around them within the carriage were missing limbs or were decapitated. King Zi Guang could not even tell who was killed by whom.
“Don’t come near me!” King Zi Guang’s first wife wailed and she charged towards King Zi Guang with her weapon as soon as she saw him.
King Zi Guang’s eyes twitched right away and when he looked at the remaining three survivors, he realized that they had also gone mad.
At his side, there were also a few bloodied words on one of the walls that read, “We will have our vengeance one day! You killed my people and now, I kill your family.”
King Zi Guang took in a deep breath upon seeing those words and with the light wheels behind his head spinning, he collected his wives and disciples’ souls, which got terrorized by this horrifying event, After he collected and patched them up with his Six Path Reincarnation, these souls gained their senses back and they were no longer insane.
“Let’s go. We are only safe when we reach the Bo Luo Six Paths World.”
King Zi Guang put up a calm expression, washing the blood and flesh away and burying his wives and disciples’ remains in his Yuan Shen Secret Realm before continuing his journey.
In his carriage, he took out the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror and looked at Zhong Yue who was frozen within the mirror after being suppressed with a dark expression. For a few times, he wanted to kill Zhong Yue but in the end, he would give up after thinking of the consequences.
I can still marry other ladies when my wives died, I can still take in more disciples when my disciples died but if I kill him, I am nothing more than a piece of dead meat….
King Zi Guang then kept the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror away and thought, I must not lose my temper just because my wives are dead! I can be involved into this matter but I must not involve myself too deeply.
The carriage continued to move forward and as they got closer to the Bo Luo Six Path World, the five of them finally felt relieved from the worries and pressure they were shouldering. Whatever those things were, they all happened within the space and when they arrived in the Bo Luo Six Path World, they would be safe under the Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s protection, the protection from someone who was so strong that he was merely a step away from becoming an Imperial Emperor.
And they were only safe after they handed over the mirror to Realm Monarch Bo Luo.
When the carriage got close to the divine battlefield, King Zi Guang hesitated for a moment and when he looked at the battlefield where the Heavenly Monarch’s blood shed everywhere from afar, he was a little unwilling to enter this place.
“My lord….” said his wife with a trembling voice softly.
“The alternate route will take an additional half year and no one can tell what will we run into during that period of time or if we can arrive safely in Bo Luo Six Path World.”
King Zi Guang felt conflicted at the same time as he said, “But if we take this path, who knows what kind of horrible things will happen to us in the divine battlefield? After all, this is the place where the last Fuxi Heavenly Monarch died….”
He was scared, scared to a point where he would be startled by a pin drop. Whatever happened throughout the journey were closely related to the Fuxi Celestial Race. That mist itself and the eerie ruins formed by the fallen Fuxi warriors from the ancient times were a testament to that.
“Half a year is more than enough time for these guys to set up the perfect ambush. We have no option but to take this gamble!”
He made up his mind right away and drove the carriage right into the divine battlefield.
Throughout the journey, everything was smooth; though the Heavenly Monarch’s skills scarred the divine battlefield greatly, they no longer contained any power, thus, King Zi Guang and his people managed to get through safely.
King Zi Guang paid full attention to the surroundings as they traveled within the divine battlefield and suddenly, loud rumblings could be heard. With the rumbles, the ancient Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch appeared out of nowhere and a cosmic wave accelerated through the divine battlefield rapidly.
Then, one after another, ancient yet weathered warships sailed out from nowhere and countless gods of war from the Fuxi Celestial Race stood at the bows of these ships.
“Feng, Feng, Feng….”
