Hundun Yu shook his head for with Zhong Yue standing in front of him, the Drum of Dusk’s power did not affect him and Zhong Yue was the one that suffered the most damage.
As they were talking, drum beats were heard again and Zhong Yue immediately sailed away with a grave expression.
Throughout the way, Zhong Yue fought and retreated non-stop, but no matter how hard he tried, he wasn’t able to shake off the Heavenly Wardens. Even if he fought with everything he had and after managing to force them off, his escape would be interrupted when his thousand winged ancient ship was stopped by the drum beats.
There was even a time where Zhong Yue had already shaken them off his tail. Just as he was about to run away, these wardens caught up using some kind of methods. And with that, another round of battle ensued.
They must have some kind of way to track me.
After shaking them off once again, he found his flesh destroyed again and he frowned. At this rate, even if he had achieved the Immortal Body and with the help of the fire spirits, he still wouldn’t be able to last any longer.
Suddenly, rumbles came from the front as a lengthy river intercepted their path. Colorful clouds floated above the river and on the cloud stood divine generals that surrounded a divine king, who smirked, “Rebel, you think you can pass our Xiao Guang Six Paths World?”
Without any hesitation, Zhong Yue turned around until he was stopped by another Realm Monarch, “Rebel, do you recognize me, the You He Six Paths World’s Realm Monarch Qin Liu?”
Zhong Yue switched directions again only to soon be stopped by another Realm Monarch, “You may have escaped Xiao Guang and Qin Liu, but you won’t get lucky again before me, Realm Monarch Wu Yang!”
Again, Zhong Yue turned around and Wu Yang’s army just couldn’t catch up with the ancient ship.
“Rebel, do you remember our An Xiang Six Paths World?”
Not long later, Zhong Yue ran into Xiang Yinhan’s army, the Heavens hung in the air above his army like bright pearls and at the same time, the other Realm Monarchs had arrived, blocking off his path and faint drum beats were heard as the wardens closed in quickly.
On the ancient ship, Hundun Yu frowned and asked, “What now, Mister Yi?”
But Zhong Yue did not say a word and he just charged into the Six Paths World right below them.
The four Realm Monarchs led their armies towards that Six Paths World and this Six Paths World was Wei Shen Six Paths World, its Realm Monarch was Realm Monarch Yunshan, Helian Yunshan.
Xiang Yinhan smiled and said, “Heavenly Wardens, no worries, all I have to do is just notify Realm Monarch Yunshan and the rebels will have no way of running anymore!”
Bing Yin, Ding Mao, and Wu Chen slowed down hearing this while Xiang Yinhan shouted towards Wei Shen Six Paths World’s Heaven Court, “Brother Yunshan, lend us a hand and trap the rebel! He had run into your world!”
In the Wei Shen Six Paths World, Realm Monarch Yunshan’s body gigantified and he smiled, “There is no way to run now!”
In the Heaven Court, the divine generals, soldiers swarmed in, Goddess Shi Ji and the Realm Lords came charging out with the armies under their lead.
In the skies, divine light illuminated as the Realm Monarchs arrived with their army, surrounded the entire Wei Shen Six Paths World and covered every possible exit.
Meanwhile, the ancient ship descended into the Heaven Realm in Wei Shen Six Paths World and stopped right in front of Lord Yue’s Courtyard.
Zhong Yue got down the ship while Hundun Yu frowned upon this, “Mister Yi, with the speed of your ship, we won’t be trapped by them? Why are we not leaving?”
“Why leave?” replied Zhong Yue calmly.
Hundun Yu frowned even more hearing this.
As the owner of Lord Yue’s Courtyard, Zhong Yue was no stranger to its layout and he immediately sat on the main seat in the hall while smiling, “Senior Martial Brother Yu, there is no need to panic. I have been developing my forces in the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds for years. Instead of being chased around by them, we might as well take them all out.”
The partially convinced Hundun Yu then took his seat with an uneasy heart while divine generals were seen patrolling around the Lord Yue’s Courtyard trying to gather as much information they can.
“Huh?”
Realm Monarch Yunshan was surprised and puzzled after he lowered his head and checked into the place where the rebel ran into.
“What’s wrong? Brother Yunshan, is that place a top secret place in your world?”
“No, in fact, this is the place where the Fuxi Celestial Race’s brat once stayed. This rebel is still at large now and not long ago, King Zi Guang sent messengers here to obtain information about the rebel. The messengers also left not long ago.”
“Hmmm, perhaps this rebel is related to the Fuxi Celestial Race’s rebel?”
All of a sudden, heads fell down from the skies as a voice burst out laughing, “Messengers from Zi Wei? Here you go, our Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud had claimed their heads! Right here!”
Realm Monarch Yunshan’s expression twisted slightly and he smirked.
The other Realm Monarchs and the Heavenly Wardens looked up, finding 18 weird looking Deity Emperors and Creators approaching them with a young Deity Emperor. These newcomers entered their encirclement arrogantly and walked into Lord Yue’s Courtyard while ignoring what happened.
“Who are they?” asked Realm Monarch Xiang Yinhan.
“Rebels under the Fuxi Celestial Race’s rebel!”
Realm Monarch Yunshan smirked, “Changgeng and his Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud! Don’t worry, they are not a threat and I can easily stomp them with my army!”
“Then what if you include us?”
The outer skies shattered as a rampaging ape descended, slammed onto the Heaven Realm and toppled mountains.
Then, one after another massive figures rammed through the perimeter set up by the Realm Monarchs, landing beside the rampaging ape. After the dust had cleared, 99 Deity Emperors, Demon Emperors, Monster Emperors revealed themselves.
“Fuxi Celestial Race rebel’s rebels! If you are all here, then where is the Fuxi Celestial Race rebel!”
Chapter 1028: Betrayed |
Yuan Qi, Shang Yu and the rest of the 99 demon Deity Emperors bowed and shouted, “Creators, please show yourselves!”
A tear appeared in the skies and majestic figures were revealed, these were all Creators no weaker than the Realm Monarchs!
And behind the Creators were countless celestials, demons and monster Deity Emperors!
In total, there were 64 Creators and 800 Deity Emperors!
Seeing this, Realm Monarch Yunshan and the others felt a chill wash over them. Their expression changed drastically at the sight of one of the largest powers in 3,000 Six Paths World showing up!
“My lord!” bowed a Creator.
“My lord!” followed by the others.
A young Fuxi walked out, appearing from the tear in the sky; this was the most wanted man in the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds, and one of the two remaining survivors of Fuxi Celestial Race — the Zhong Shan Clan’s Zhong Yue!
Although he was only a True Deity, he stood at the forefront of all Creators and Deity Emperors!
Killing intent raged within him. It was so condensed that a bloodied ocean was created, with corpses floating all over on the ocean. Such a terrifying abnormal phenomenon had just occured. Just how many lives he had reaped with his very own bloodied hands!
Zhong Yue, the ruthless demon king and crazy Fuxi Celestial Race, had returned once again to the Wei Shen Six Paths World!
Realm Monarch Yunshan’s eyes twitched the moment he saw Zhong Yue and he tried to sneak away. All these years he had been worrying about Zhong Yue’s return, and so he was the one that contributed the most each time there was a hunt for Zhong Yue!
Later, after Zhong Yue’s forces grew, his power had outclassed all of theirs. With just a Six Paths World, there was no way to take Zhong Yue down. Realm Monarch Yunshan still failed to kill Zhong Yue even after working with the other Realm Monarchs.
As time passed, Zhong Yue had outperformed the many Realm Monarchs, which scared Realm Monarch Yunshan off and every time when Realm Monarch Bo Luo would organize an attack to destroy Zhong Yue, Realm Monarch Yunshan would only pretend to be supportive without actually contributing.
He feared Zhong Yue’s return, but fortunately for him, Zhong Yue was kept busy by the attacks of Realm Monarch Bo Luo and his allies. But now, Zhong Yue had finally returned with a vengeance!
Not only Zhong Yue’s power, but King Geng’s army had also arrived!
Now, there was nothing else in Realm Monarch Yunshan’s mind except for yielding to run away.
The Zi Wei Galaxy was a mess now and they had no extra attention for 3,000 Six Paths World. The enemy is too strong, so what if I threw Wei Shen Six Paths World? What matters is to stay alive. Whoever that becomes the Heavenly Monarch had nothing to do with me.
Little by little, Realm Monarch Yunshan kept retreating, and that was when a calming and chilling voice said, “Surrender and you shall live! Resist and you shall die!”
This voice came right from Lord Yue’s courtyard and a chill crawled down Realm Monarch Yunshan’s spine for he knew this voice, it belonged to Zhong Yue!
And there was already a Zhong Yue in the tearing in the skies!
What did this mean?
It meant that the rebel being hunted by the Heavenly Wardens was also Zhong Yue!
Zhong Yue’s forces, the many Deity Emperors and Creators had already locked down the Heaven Realm. At the same time, the Creators had opened the Secular Worlds, shrouding the entire Heaven Realm and even if anyone managed to get past the encirclement, they would fall into the 64 Secular Worlds!
And within their Secular Worlds, these Creators were unstoppable!
Thus, a massacre began. The armies led by these Realm Monarchs got wrecked as soon as the fight started, the soldiers fled in fear but there was no way to run, even if they flew into the skies, they would fall right into the Secular Worlds filled with wonders.
Some of these Secular Worlds was mist, rain, dusk, dawn, sun, moon and many more; when the soldiers charged into the Secular Worlds, they were still alive but when they exited, what remained of them were their skeletons that were corroded by the rain in the Secular Worlds, burnt alive by the sun and beheaded by the sword-like light emitted from the moon!
Each of these Secular Worlds was different, but whenever someone entered, they were guaranteed death!
In just a moment, the Realm Monarchs’ forces were decimated, no matter how hard these Realm Monarchs fought along with their Realm Lords and soldiers, the outcome of this battle had been decided from the start.
Yuan Qi and the rest of the demon Deity Emperors charged into the battle while King Geng led Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud as he charged towards Realm Monarch Yunshan who was trying to make his way to the portal in the Heaven Realm. His son, Prince Yunhe was standing right beside it and Realm Monarch Yunshan never felt as delighted as now upon seeing his own son standing beside the teleportal. Just as he wanted to have his son to activate the teleportal and to his horror, Prince Yunhe destroyed it.
“Yunhe, what are you doing!” shouted the angry Realm Monarch Yunshan before he was swarmed by even more enemies.
Prince Yunhe however, did nothing and simply watched Realm Monarch Yunshan entrapped by the enemies while happiness glowed in his eyes and he smiled, “Father, I’d like to know how mother die.”
“She was poisoned to death by Goddess Shi Ji!” shouted Realm Monarch Yunshan who was now covered in blood and wounds.
Far away, Goddess Shi Ji who was rushing to Realm Monarch Yunshan’s aid stopped right away and she smirked after hearing what he said, “You are really cold-blooded, aren’t you?”
The panic Realm Monarch Yunshan hurriedly shouted, “Shi Ji, we have been together for such a long time, how could you watch me die in their hands?”
Goddess Shi Ji however, smirked, “Then tell him, how did your wife die?”
Seeing no way out from this aside from yielding, Realm Monarch Yunshan grinded his teeth and shouted, “Your mother was the queen and at that time, I was on the brink of being stripped of my position. So I had to borrow the Shi Clan’s power! In return, I would have to marry Goddess Shi Ji, who is the clan master and offer her the queen’s position! Your mother had to die, I had no choice! I poisoned her to death with my very own hands! But its fine isn’t it? She had been the queen for such a long time, had enjoyed privileges, wealth and power!”
“You bastard! You had nothing back then and my mother remained loyal to you regardless! She had gone through all that pain and hardship with you, not even daring to have a child, fearing that she would hinder you!”
Prince Yunhe sighed as he covered his face with his hands, “And the first thing you did upon becoming the Realm Monarch was poisoned her to death! How could you… But you are my father after all. I am not as cold-blooded as you, father, I could not watch you die here …”
“Shi Ji, help me!” shouted Realm Monarch Yunshan.
But he received a cold shoulder from Goddess Shi Ji as she left without hesitation, “My lord, we will bid each other farewell here right now. May we meet again in the afterlife, if there is an afterlife for you.”
“Afterlife? I’m afraid there won’t be one for him!”
Creator He Lan arrived in his wheelchair and smirked, “Yunshan, I’ve come back for what you owe me!”
With Creator He Lan’s addition into the battle, Realm Monarch Yunshan’s situation deteriorated quickly. But suddenly, drum beats were heard and [Daoless Heaven] rampaged across the field; wherever the drum beats passed, every Daos suppressed and the gods present all felt that their arts, weapons and power were all rendered unusable!
Realm Monarch Yunshan’s mood lit up as he thought the three Heavenly Wardens were here to help him but in the next second, he was pushed into the oblivion again as the raging [Daoless Heaven] swallowed all sound, obstructing even his power and caused even more losses among his army!
The men Zhong Yue brought today were all Deity Emperors and Creators, allowing them to keep themselves together even after the Daos in their body were canceled, preventing them from dying but the soldiers were different. Therefore, as the drum beats struck them, countless of them fell!
There were three drum beats and these wardens launched an attack towards each other at the same time!
In the attack exchange, all three of them suffered similar extent injuries and they were crippled right away.
What are the Heavenly Wardens doing? Why are they attacking each other?
Whether it be how puzzled Realm Monarch Yunshan was right now, he couldn’t be bothered anymore for he was surrounded by the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud, King Geng and Creator He Lan, which determined his outcome. With only six Realm Lords and the four Heavenly Kings on his aid, chances of survival were slim.
Suddenly, Zhong Yue’s voice came shouting, “Realm Lord Fa, do you remember what you promised me? It’s time that you realize your promise!”
Fa Shaozhen slightly stunned and he sighed before turning against Realm Monarch Yunshan, “Don’t blame me, I gave him my promise, I will give him a hand when he needs it, I’m sorry!”
“He doesn’t need it now….”
Blood gushed out from Realm Monarch Yunshan’s wounds as he fell hard onto the ground, “He wants to wipe us out!”
Out of a sudden, Heavenly King Shang also turned against Realm Monarch Yunshan, delivering a blow onto his former lord and shouted, “My king! I just want to live! Brothers! Don’t kill me, I yield!”
Beside Gu Yue, there were one young man and a young lady, their massive Yuan Shen shrouded the three wardens but when the wardens attacked each other, the drum beatings also injured the young man and young lady, forcing them to retrieve their Yuan Shen back.
“Fuxi, we have done our part, if the drums beat again, little Bai and I will die!”
The lady dragged the young man who was reluctant to leave. However, after receiving an angry glance from the lady, the young man gave in and left but not before saying, “Teacher Jiyan, I am good friends with Senior Martial Brother Zhong, why can’t we help him to kill these three weirdos?”
“He is a Fuxi, his identity itself is a huge problem! We’ve completed our training and arts, thinking that we could stand at the highest point of the food chain. But one strike, one single strike had already injured us heavily! Let’s go! He is a problem!”
Bai Canghai and Jiyan Fei left quickly.
Meanwhile in Lord Yue’s courtyard, Zhong Yue and Hundun Yu walked out and Zhong Yue smiled, “The past me, are you going to come back now?”
The other Zhong Yue in the air descended and burst out laughing, “It has been a very long time since I’ve shown my true strength. At long last, I can now be in my full form again!”
The two Zhong Yues merged together, bones cracked as Zhong Yue returned to his original appearance and his presence turned wild and ruthless.
“Whole again….”
Zhong Yue laughed suddenly before turning into Sui Sovereign’s form, engulfed in raging saint fire, stood on the thousand winged ancient ship and with its wings flapped, it slammed onto one of the drums!
That drum rumbled in a sudden, forcing the ancient ship to retract its wings but given the momentum, the ship still shattered the drum, crushing Ding Mao into bits!
“Damn, it has been a long time since I got to act without boundaries!”
Zhong Yue reached his hands into the Ding Mao’s mutilated body and grabbed onto his Yuan Shen. And with a clench of his fist, Ding Mao’s Yuan Shen was disintegrated.
Right now, he was no longer the strategist Mister Yi, but Zhong Yue, the last god of war of the vaunted Fuxi Celestial Race!
Chapter 1029: Untouched |
The Fire Order Era’s spirits had provided him with power so great that Zhong Yue felt like he was an Imperial Emperor from the Fire Order Era!
