Upon seeing these faces, Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched as he realized that these faces were the faces of the many gods, even including two Deity Emperors!
Now, he finally understood why and how did the voice of Mother Ghost of Hundred Children managed to sound at the same time from different positions; she was actually speaking through the souls of these deceased strong Qi Practitioners!
Thank god there are only faces, not bodies….
As soon as he thought of this, his face turned green when naked bodies started walking out from the dark as if they were newborns; each of them was not only naked but also covered in a sticky liquid as if they had just come out of the womb!
These walking bodies had no faces as well!
Then, they reached their hands out, grabbed onto the faces around the light bridge and stuck them onto their faceless faces. After adjusting themselves, they corrected their misplaced eyes, ears, nose, and mouth but they all still looked slightly deformed.
These were those who got eaten by Mother Ghost of Hundred Children and after she gave birth to these soulless bodies, they would immediately be pumped into these bodies and retrieve their own faces.
These gods and demons roared as they swarmed Zhong Yue while shouting furiously, “How dare you hurt mother! Now, let your brothers and sisters teach you how to show some respect for mother!”
On the other hand, the three-legged double winged celestial being emerged on top of Zhong Yue’s head and when he swung a banner, the Six Path Reincarnations appeared on the banner and the gods shrieked before their souls flew right into the Six Soul Baner!
Their soulless bodies then fell from the air with only the two Deity Emperors who had abnormally strong souls preserved.
At the same time, the three-legged six-eyed celestial being of Zhong Yue emerged; it was the Innate Starry Toad True Spirit. It channeled the immense power in it and the power turned into an altar and along with the Six Soul Banner, the bodies were sent into the altar and they all got sacrificed.
The two spirits then roared together, activated the altar and converted everything into fearful power with totem carvings before turning the power into two shart cones!
The [Mystic Dao Breaker]!
Behind Zhong Yue, light wheels emerged while rotating quickly and the Six Path Reincarnations traveled through the lights wheels quickly while surrounding the Pan Gu Celestial.
With a battle cry, Zhong Yue pushed his hands, sending his attacks out against the two celestial emperors while he shouted, “King Geng, I will get you out for sure!”
Hong long—-
The two celestial emperors finally clashed with his attacks and Zhong Yue immediately got pushed back; his internal organs and totem carvings were all messed up under the extreme impact and they were on the brink of breaking!
Zhong Yue opened his Bloodline Wheel and his Yuan Shen and body’s bloodline merged together and they too, were bleeding!
The two celestial emperors then charged at him again, and this time, Zhong Yue let out a long shout before he gathered up his full strength to resist and keep the [Mystic Dao Breaker] from shattering.
Clash after clash left Zhong Yue full of injuries everywhere but he still prevented the [Mystic Dao Breaker] from shattering while his two Innate True Spirits channeled power into [Mystic Dao Breaker] in an attempt to complete the [Mystic Dao Breaker] before Zhong Yue was killed.
As time passed, Zhong Yue suffered great injuries under the joint attacks of the two celestial emperors, but at the same time, his skill was also completed!
Zhong Yue let out a smile right away and the [Mystic Dao Breaker] shot towards the cage of King Geng like a meteor!
“King Geng, I have finally gotten you out!’
Zhong Yue burst out laughing and this time, while facing the attacks of the two celestial emperors, he no longer tried to resist as if he had given into fate.
While the two celestial emperors pounced at him ferociously, the [Mystic Dao Breaker] was also on the brink of touching King Geng’s cage.
All of a sudden, the [Mystic Dao Breaker] turned around rapidly without a sign and shot all the way up to the top!
Blood splashed and the gigantic body of the Mother Ghost came running out of the cage with a hole opened up by [Mystic Dao Breaker] on her chest while she wailed in pain!
“Argh argh argh—”
In front of her, the cages dispersed quickly like illusions and what laid in front of Zhong Yue was not the King Geng’s cage but her shadow!
At the same time, the two celestial emperors’ mind went blank and they fell onto the ground powerlessly, only to have their heads to severed off by Zhong Yue who utilized and exploited this hard-to-come-by chance and sent the souls of the two celestial emperors into the banner!
“Mother Ghost of Hundred Children, you are plotting against me but why didn’t you realize that I was doing the same?”
Zhong Yue laughed happily as he walked towards Mother Ghost of Hundred Children who was shrieking nonstop and he said coldly, “You are very wary of my techniques, thus, you tried to lure out my powerful techniques by setting up the illusions. However, a technique used twice in front of me is just a stupid move where I would snatch your life from you!”
Chapter 715: The Intrinsic Power of The Races |
King Geng’s and the prison cell’s image that Zhong Yue saw were merely hallucinations that Mother Ghost created based on Zhong Yue’s perception of the Abyss. Zhong Yue saw through her tricks right at the moment they met and knew that they were just illusions.
Furthermore, it wasn’t hard at all to calculate Mother Ghost’s position from her shadows.
When Zhong Yue was fighting her, he purposely proclaimed himself as King Geng’s subordinate to deceive Mother Ghost.
After all, King Geng was the late Realm Monarch’s younger brother and he was a prideful man. If Zhong Yue called him younger brother, Mother Ghost would have many suspicions and grow more cautious in the battle. However, announcing himself as King Geng’s subordinate was a perfectly reasonable lie that Mother Ghost wouldn’t doubt.
And everything he had done, from the first step he took, the first word he spoke, and the first move he made—it was all meant for this one deadly blow.
He had no confidence in taking on Mother Ghost in a direct battle, thus, he could only use deceit to defeat her.
Mother Ghost was screaming in pain, the flesh around the huge hole on her chest was squirming in an attempt to fill and recover her wound. But just how strong was the [Mystic Dao Breaker]?
Creator He Lan took years of hard work and experiments before he came out with this skill. It was specifically created to break the seals and clear a path in the direst of situations. Thus, when it bore a hole on her body, not only did the [Mysitc Dao Breaker]’s energy prevent the wound from recovering, it was also constantly eroding her life essence, crushing the life force in her body and Yuan Shen!
Zhong Yue walked toward her with an ever-strengthening aura while Mother Ghost stopped crying and abruptly stood up. Her body was huge as usual, the demonic flame incinerated the air and the ghostly aura blew onto Zhong Yue’s face. She shrieked aloud, “Brat, you’ve hurt me painfully and killed my children! Today, I will let you experience the greatest torments!”
She was, after all, the empress of the Gui Shen Celestial Race, born with a naturally strong soul that was suited for the environment of Hell. The usual suppression on the cultivator’s Yuan Shen and soul didn’t apply to her. Thus, even when she was severely injured, she was still significantly stronger than the emperors from the Heaven Court, and her skills were too strange to effectively counter!
Zhong Yue let out a long whistle while the Innate Golden Crow True Spirit turned into a miniature sun and the Innate Star Toad True Spirit into a miniature moon. The two Innate True Spirits entered his eyes as he finally revealed the third form of his Yuan Shen!
His legs were replaced by a long snake tail and his divine third eye opened underneath the mask. In jus
t an instant, he had turned into his strongest form, the Fuxi True Body!
His aura intensified to a few times stronger than before, boosting his power to a level beyond his peers!
It was the strongest form of his Yuan Shen, the greatest peak of his true power that had been suppressed for a long time!
He now felt like a Fuxi, a god of war!
Krong—
The two exchanged a bout and the Abyss trembled vigorously as if it were crumbling away in the aftermath of their strikes.
“You are a Fuxi!” Mother Ghost screamed in fear, “Aren’t all the Fuxi eliminated? Rebel Chang Geng has fraternized with the remnant confederates of the overthrown Fuxi Clan. No wonder he deserves to die!”
As soon as she saw Zhong Yue’s Fuxi True Body, she immediately realized that he would never be one of King Geng’s clique’s remaining confederates, but instead, King Geng might just be one of the remnants of the overthrown Fuxi Clan!
After all, King Geng’s greatest enemy was just Helian Yunshan, a Six Paths World’s Realm Monarch; but the Fuxi Celestial Race’s enemy was the whole universe!
Naturally, Zhong Yue would never be King Geng’s confederates, but it could only be the other way round!
Mother Ghost was terrified, a living Fuxi was far too important that it involved things beyond her reach. As a result, she now had no intention of getting entangled in the fight anymore and only wanted to report Zhong Yue’s presence to the higher-ups. As long as she reported him, she would be greatly rewarded!
Such a reward would come directly from those high up at the tip of the power pyramid, not even Realm Monarch Yunshan could present the rewards given by them!
It would be extremely precious!
Zhong Yue slithered close to her, and the two swung their eight arms, rapidly exchanging bouts. But as Mother Ghost insisted on leaving, they were moving closer and closer to the exit.
As time passed, Mother Ghost suffered severe wounds, and she was bleeding profusely; but the exit was close, she was on the verge of escaping the Abyss!
With his power, he will never be able to catch me! The great rewards that I shall claim, here I come… Mother Ghost was extremely happy as she saw her head out of the Abyss. But suddenly, her legs were entangled by Zhong Yue’s snake tail, and she was forcefully dragged back into the Abyss.
Screams of pain and terror resounded through the Abyss for tens of days before it regained peace and silence.
“Fuxi, when I am reborn, I will awaken my memories in this life and report you to the high heavens. You can run, but you can’t hide!”
Mother Ghost’s soul flew out from her corpse and was pulled toward the Sea of Oblivion.
Immediately, Zhong Yue cast and waved the [Six Soul Banner]. Mother Ghost’s soul shrieked in terror and was helplessly sucked back into the Abyss and into the banner.
Zhong Yue was coughing blood as he perished Mother Ghost’s soul in the [Six Soul Banner]. He said calmly, “But as long as you are dead forever, who would know I was here?”
Zhong Yue recollected his thought and found himself actually killing a celestial emperor!
He killed a Deity Emperor in Hell!
If I hadn’t awoken the Innate True Soul, I’d be the one that was killed. However in Hell, with the Innate True Soul awakened and in addition to the Fuxi Yuan Shen, I can actually defeat almost everyone in Hell!
Zhong Yue collected Mother Ghost’s True Soul and mortal body, then revert back to his human form. He strode into the deeper regions in search for King Geng who was imprisoned with the other Deity Emperors.
Although trapped, the prison cells still couldn’t stop the strong and powerful Deity Emperors’ voice and vision.
“It’s this young man again!”
“He had been here before! Is Hell his own backyard that he can enter and exit as he liked?”
“He freed Creator He Lan along with over a hundred others the last time he was here, why is he here again? Who is he going to free this time?”
“Young man, free me, and my life is yours to command!”
“Free me now, I will give you all the treasures I have, and bestow you with great power!”
…..
Zhong Yue ignored all of them, and he looked through the prison cells. When he finally found King Geng, he heaved a breath of relief. Indeed, just like the fake images Mother Ghost presented, King Geng was nailed on a cross and two fiends were sawing his mortal body and Yuan Shen. Clearly, Mother Ghost had seen the prison cell, thus, she was able to replicate King Geng’s situation.
Brother is nailed on the cross and there are two fiends beside him. This is troublesome.
Zhong Yue mulled. He suddenly lashed a skill on the prison cell light barrier. The two fiends felt the light barrier trembling and quickly looked out.
Zhong Yue saw them looking over and smiled, he raised Mother Ghost’s head up in his hand, and the two little fiends were completely terrified. They were screaming and running around in the little cell. But the cell was so strong that even the Deity Emperors couldn’t break through it, let alone them.
After some time, the little fiends were finally able to calm down. They moved toward King Geng in attempt to threaten Zhong Yue with his life. But then, they remembered King Geng has the Immortal Body, and they couldn’t actually kill King Geng. Left with no choice, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhong Yue to beg for mercy.
Now that’s much easier. Zhong Yue’s psyche rammed on the light barrier and he said, “Open the cell, and I’ll spare your lives!”
His Yuan Shen was so strong that in Hell, he was no different than a celestial emperor. His psyche could be transmitted into the cell just like the other Deity Emperors imprisoned here!
The little fiends immediately got up and freed King Geng from the cross and reconnected his severed body parts back to his body. After that, they then stood humbly on the side.
King Geng’s lost body parts were returned, he slowly stood up and glanced over the two little fiends before looking out.
But Zhong Yue was wearing a mask, and even he couldn’t tell who it was. He thought, Could it be a celestial emperor who was indebted to me in the past life? But Hell is heavily guarded with many Deity Emperors, how did he get in?
“Brother, do you still remember your elder brother?” Zhong Yue’s psyche seeped through the cell and sounded right in his mind.
King Geng was greatly shocked, he couldn’t believe it and exclaimed, “You? Impossible! How could it be you?”
“Why not?” Zhong Yue laughed. He cast out Mother Ghost’s mortal body and spirit, and sacrificed them as a power source to the [Mystic Dao Breaker].
After a long time, the [Mystic Dao Breaker] had enough power, and it flashed out like a ray of light. Concomitant with a loud boom, a hole was opened on the prison cell light barrier, and Zhong Yue smiled, “Why are you still in there?”
King Geng calmed himself, he looked at the two fiends beside him and grabbed them along as he escaped from the prison cell. He stood beside Zhong Yue and placed the two fiends down on the ground.
“Do you want to kill them?” Zhong Yue frowned, his psyche rumbled and asked.
King Geng shook his head, he replied, “They are just following their orders, there’s no need to kill them. Since brother you’ve already promised to spare their lives, then they shall be spared.”
Zhong Yue nodded, “We need to leave now before the Heaven Court realize.”
King Geng then turned to the little fiends and said, “I’m now freed, and as a punishment, you two will be setenced to death by the Heaven Court and Hell. But now, before they are able to react to it, you may head over to the Sea of Obvilion and be reincarnated to your next lives.”
The two fiends knelt and kowtow to him, they said, “We thank for the king’s mercy!”
King Geng waved his sleeves and they left immediately.
“Brother, you’ve personally come to free me, the Wei Shen Six Paths World is no place for you or me anymore. W
e need to leave now, only to return once we have the strength to compete against Helian Yunshan,” King Geng said while looking at Zhong Yue with a complicated expression.
Suddenly, he sighed and bowed solemnly, “I was never willing to acknowledge you as my elder brother; but now I do. Brother, you’ve risked your life and your future to save me, and even given up your spot in the Wei Shen Six Paths World. You’ve sacrificed too much for me, and I have nothing to repay you for that. From now onwards, you’ll always be my elder brother, until death does us apart!”
Zhong Yue quickly picked him up while smiling, “You’re making it too serious. But this time, only you are leaving, I will not go with you. Don’t worry, Realm Monarch Yunshan won’t be able to do anything to me. We have to leave now, I had the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud wait for you!”
King Geng was shocked, he followed closely behind Zhong Yue while saying, “Helian Yunshan is extremely witty, you won’t be able to hide from him. It’s best you follow me and leave this place, it’s far too risky to stay!”
Chapter 716: Imperial Level Skill |
Zhong Yue smiled and said, “Be at ease, although Realm Monarch Helian Yunshan is smart, he is witnessing myself initiating the challenge at the Pure Yang lightning zone. Thus, no matter who he suspects, he will never think it was me.”
King Geng was even more surprised, he exclaimed in shock, “You were in the Pure Yang lightning zone challenging the lightning tribulations?”
Zhong Yue nodded, he couldn’t explain more and said, “The Heaven Court would have noticed the situation by now already. Time is of the essence, we have to leave now!”
The two of them sped out of the Abyss and headed to A’Bi City.
Zhong Yue gave a long whistle as a signal to An who was suppressing Hell Emperor to hide in the Sea of Oblivion. As soon as An heard the whistle, he dashed toward the two.
Since the battle started, Hell Emperor was suppressed so severely that without the help of the Sea of Oblivion, he had no chance of fighting back. When he saw An dashing away, the furious Hell Emperor immediately rushed out of the Sea of Oblivion along with his Soul Reaping Bell.
