Dong Ah agreed to this statement and he said, “Who would believe that everything is normal when a mere human managed to achieve what he achieved right now and defeated the Qi Practitioners in all 3,000 Six Path Worlds. Teacher was right, this human is suspicious.”
Xi He then said to the god, “Wake him up.”
And the god immediately replied, ” Lord Yue is currently in the crucial moment. If we disturbed him abruptly, his attainments of Dao will be destroyed!”
“Doesn’t matter. He’s already dead so what’s wrong with that?” said Dong Ah with a cold smirk, “You dare to disobey me?”
The god immediately smiled awkwardly and replied, “Dear guests. Realm Monarch ordered me to bring you here but not listen to your orders. Now, I’ve already brought you here and I shall take my leave if there is nothing else anymore.”
Pa—
A loud slap sounded the sky and the god was seen holding his face. After recovering from the shock, this god got enraged and he stared angrily at Xi He, who then said, “This is a lesson from me. You who come from lower worlds must know your place. Now, begone.”
Hearing this, the flame of anger burnt even brighter in this god but in the end, he was afraid of assaulting them and all he did was leave without doing anything.
“Such a puny god from a lower world actually dares to behave in such an absurd manner.” Dong Ah shook his head and laughed, “DOes he not know he is just a god with the weakest bloodline? And you, junior martial sister, why did you get angry at such lowly beings?”
Xi He smiled and replied right away, “It’s his fault so I was teaching him a lesson. Senior martial brother, are you going to do it?”
“Let me do it.”
Dong Ah flicked his finger and right away, countless totem carvings flew out and turned into a fiery bird mid air. This fiery bird flapped it’s burning wings and in an instant, it flew all the way up into the Pure Yang Lei Zhe, screeched and launched a soundwave attack towards Zhong Yue!
“How dare you!”
Angry shouts were heard as Shi Yinji, Jun Wudao and the others came rushing out and Ju Ying and the rest who were in Zhong’s Yue courtyard also rushed out quickly, each of whom were incensed at their blatant provocation.
“What are you doing!” shouted Ju Ying, “Lord Yue is in a crucial moment right now! Stop your nonsense at once!”
Dong Ah, however, ignored all of them and said in surprise, “Huh? Such self-control, being able to remain focused even when I tried to disrupt him.”
Seconds ago, when the fiery bird screeched, Zhong Yue’s body shook slightly and the way he shook was very strange. With each movement, Zhong Yue placed himself in sync with the soundwave and with that, he evaded the attack easily.
Dong Ah and Xi He’s eyes lit up right away as they realized that this was a move that required great skills; Zhong Yue was still in his cultivation but his body unconsciously acted with such amazing moves!
It felt like his movements themselves were just another amazing technique.
“He is still in cultivation and he is supposed to be fully occupied by this but before the attack reached him, his body had already move by itself to evade the attack. This is a rare one.”
Dong Ah said, “This human is indeed very amazing. My interest in him is growing.”
He clapped his hands towards the air and in a split second, the skies in Heaven Realm collapsed as a jade green palm slammed towards Zhong Yue!
“Damn it!”
Ju Ying and the others immediately acted and they shouted, “How can you be so shameless! I’ve already told you Lord Yue is not to be disturbed right now!”
Dong Ah did not give a damn and he said, “Junior martial sister, teach them a lesson but they must not be harmed.”
Hearing this, the ribbons behind Xi He’s clothes flew up into the air and flew towards Shi Yinji and the others, which caught them off guard and sent them flying all the way back into the ground.
“Qi Practitioners from the lower worlds are just too weak.” Xi He shook and as her ribbons returned to her, she said, “They may have cultivated Creator level techniques and arts but with their talent, they merely scratch the surface.”
On the other hand, Ju Ying and the others slammed back into the ground and they felt blood rushing up their throats as they all thought, Who are they! Why are they so strong!
They said we are lower world Qi Practitioners, could it be that they came from the Zi Wei Galaxy?
At this time, Dong Ah’s jade green palm had already reached Pure Yang Lei Zhe. Though this palm was formed from his skills, totem carvings were etched all over the surface of this palm, each being as deep as a canyon and exhibiting boundless wonder.
The palm slammed towards Zhong Yue and without a sign, Zhong Yue stood up with his eyes closed as he nimbly maneuvered around the Pure Yang Lei Zhe.
Dong Ah’s palm slammed onto the ground repeatedly but each time, Zhong Yue managed to evade his attack by walking right through the gap between his palm.
Dong Ah’s expression turned grave as he soon realized that Zhong Yue’s movements were very strange. This time, Zhong Yue stopped right there, sat down and remained dwelling in his cultivation.
“A formidable foe!”
Dong Ah’s pupil shrunk and he laughed happily, “It’s been a while since I ran into someone like you! My interest in competing with you is rising! Good! Good!”
He then hurled out a divine ray, unleashing his power and locking onto Zhong Yue before he positioned himself to charge at Zhong Yue. Suddenly, just as he locked onto Zhong Yue, his target disappeared from his sight. On the other side of the field, the young man was seen stomping down the Pure Yang Lei Zhe!
Dong Ah was caught off guard but at this time, it was already too late to deliver another move, thus, he pushed his hands forward in an attempt to minimize the damage.
Just as soon as he pushed his hands forward, Zhong Yue landed right in front of him from the skies. A loud explosion sounded out, and after a vigorous trembling, Dong Ah felt that he was rammed by a meteor. His bones creaked under the impact and he was sent flying away before he hit the ground rolling and bouncy.
With each roll and bounce, a huge hole would appear on the ground and after creating at least ten huge holes, Dong Ah finally managed to regain his balance.
Dong Ah spat out a mouthful of blood and he immediately looked at Zhong Yue after he stood up straight only to see Zhong Yue’s eyes still closed. This time, without Dong Ah locking right onto Zhong Yue, the human young man sat down again and continued his cultivation as if nothing had happened.
Chapter 749: Exposed |
Zhong Yue was in the status of attaining Dao, just like what Dong Ah explained—Zhong Yue was now infinitely near the Dao.
Any attacks that was directed to him would be spontaneously responded by his subconsciousness; causing him to track the source of the killing intent and neutralize the threats.
The state of sudden Dao attainment was the best experience any cultivator could ever hope for. Being in that state synchonized one with the Dao, imbuing every move they made with the essence of the Dao.
Dong Ah’s first two attempts were skills which Zhong Yue’s subconsciousness only dispelled with no further actions taken; but Dong Ah’s third attempt wielded his soul weapon. At the moment the soul weapons were cast out, Zhong Yue’s subconsciousness subsequently identified him as a threat and responded in kind.
As Zhong Yue was wholly immersed in the Dao, he was considered as part of Dao; and it was exactly the Dao that moved his body to defend himself.
“Junior martial sister” Dong Ah was shocked and furious, he slowly stood up and said solemnly, “We’ve met with a lower realm expert!”
Xi He’s face stiffened along with Dong Ah’s. They trapped Zhong Yue in the center. Dong Ah’s first two attempts had no effect at all while the third attempt even caused him to be wounded by Zhong Yue’s subconscious responses. Such prowess, it was rare even among the Qi Practition
ers in the Zi Wei Galaxy.
“Array formation!” Dong Ah yelled, “Engage him together!”
The Six Paths Wheel behind Xi He revolved rapidly while huge totem pillars flew out from it.
The totem pillars were huge, forged from divine gold, and totem patterns carved by the blood of god’s paved across the surfaces.
But what was most terrifying was that the huge totem pillars numbered in over thousands, with each pillar containing thousands of unique totem patterns carved with different types of godly blood and emanated different types of aura!
The totem pillars array formation alone had utilized the power of over a million god’s blood!
Although King Zi Guang had countless gods under his lead, it was still a big deal for him to order the gods to present their blood just so he could used them to forge the totem pillars for his disciple, Xi He.
One must know, that even Shi Yinji, the daughter to Realm Monarch Yunshan, couldn’t have had the honor of forging her own weapons with the blood of a million gods.
Every single god had their own secrets; they hailed from different heritages, different powers, and different races. Their blood contained the secrets to their cultivation; thus it was only natural for them to decline any requests for their blood essences!
But Xi He had done so.
It was evident how much influence King Zi Guang held over the Zi Wei Galaxy.
“The Million Gods Suppressing The Heaven Gate!” Xi He chanted as she cast the thousand totem pillars. The totem patterns on the pillars glimmered, turning into the images of gods that centered around Zhong Yue, creating an independent dimension that enclosed him within.
As the array formation was activated, four walls were raised with watchtowers on each side. Along with the grand-looking gods, the Heaven Gate was truly a spectacular scene to behold.
Shi Yinji, Yu Bochuan, and the others rushed to the rescue, but they couldn’t even get close to the array formation before an invisible force pushed them miles back from it.
Known as The Million Gods Suppressing The Heaven Gate, the array formation was solely created by Xi He. When the array formation was activated, it would ensnare the target in the four walls and beleaguered until either side dies. The overbearing pressure from the Heaven Gate has naturally acted upon the only victim it had as it tried to immobilize Zhong Yue.
But to her dismay, even when the array formation was fully activated, Zhong Yue stood up as if nothing had happened, his eyes were still closed and the calmness on his face never wavered.
Suddenly, his body vibrated with high frequency and disappeared in her vision, leaving only shadows behind as he continuously slipped away from the pressure of the Heaven Gate every time it was about to catch him.
Beads of cold sweat rolled down Xi He’s forehead as she mustered all of her might yet was still unable to follow Zhong Yue’s speed.
“He is too fast!” Xi He said with dismay, “Every time, he appears at the point my array formation can’t have reacted to instantly, I can’t suppress him at all! Senior martial brother, what should we do now?”
But she was only partially right. Even though the strange movements allowed him to evade the array formation’s overbearing pressure, it was still insufficient for him to avoid clashing with the gods in the array formation. If she had looked closely, she would see that his mortal body was shivering at a strangely high frequency that was in sync with the everchanging conditions inside of the array formation.
Zhong Yue, at this point in time, appeared to have even more profound attainments than Xi He in her own formation. It was as if he knew the changes and ways of the array formation like it was his own creation.
Suddenly, Dong Ah bolted into the array formation toward Zhong Yue while shouting, “Together we will break the flow of his movements!”
Xi He also followed behind, aiding Dong Ah in stalling Zhong Yue’s movements while controlling the array formation at the same time.
Zhong Yue’s movements were constantly changing, his body shivered even more vigorously and suddenly, he started moving his hands and legs as if he was dancing with the Heaven Gate as his stage.
Hu—
A total of eight arms grew out from his body, making various kinds of hand seals while also warding off Dong Ah and Xi He’s attacks. Moreover, he was able to counter their attacks and fight back!
Dong Ah and Xi He fought with Zhong Yue inside of the array formation. The totem patterns hovered on their sides while their skills ravaged the space around. But Zhong Yue’s state of sudden Dao attainment still persisted, totem patterns were forming outside of his body and fused into him; Xi He and Dong Ah couldn’t even affect his pace even the slightest!
The two higher realm cultivators were enraged, while they were going all out in the battle, their opponent seemed lackadaisical and at ease. Yet, he was able to respond with every one of their moves.
It was truly terrifying!
“Can a human really reach such a profound stage?” The two were terrified, but their attacks grew stronger. Everything King Zi Guang had ever imparted them was cast out at Zhong Yue, these skills were even better than those taught to Shi Yinji by her parents.
After all, King Zi Guang was from a great heritage, a knowledgeable man, a seasoned cultivator, and at the same time, a trusted courtier to the imperial emperor; of course his skills would be much better even when compared to the Realm Monarchs.
Despite that, Zhong Yue remained unperturbed, and that struck a blow to Dong Ah and Xi He’s self-confidence.
“You two from the Zi Wei Galaxy, how dare you still claim yourselves to be superior to us? Two against one, and still used the help of the array formation! Shameless!” Shi Yinji taunted from outside of the array formation.
But before the burning fire of anger rose in Dong Ah’s and Xe He’s hearts, another lady’s voice said indifferently, “Most importantly, Lord Yue is still in his cultivation, yet they still can’t do anything to him.”
“Wanjun, Lord Yue’s clothes were sewn by you, weren’t they? They look nice on him, look at that, him wearing the clothes you’ve made for him and toying around with them like worms without even opening his eyes.”
“It’s nothing.”
Dong Ah’s and Xi He’s face turned dark and gloomy.
Meanwhile in the Heaven Cour, Realm Monarch Yunshan was also furtively observing at the battle. His face was as dark and gloomy as the two, thinking of how his scheme on the young cultivators would not work anymore—Dong Ah and Xi He were clearly no match for Zhong Yue.
All of a sudden, he sensed an incoming aura and walked out of his palace. He looked at the Heaven Court’s teleportation formation and saw a beam of light descend down from the firmament. A golden carriage slowly emerged from the light beam.
King Zi Guang walked down from the carriage and bowed from afar, “Senior martial brother.”
Realm Monarch Yunshan also quickly reciprocated the formality, “Senior martial brother.”
Flanked by the beauties, King Zi Guang walked over and said, “I am from the Zi Wei Imperial Star. I serve the Imperial Emperor. I go by the name Zi Guang. Under His Majesty’s order, I am here to verify the human’s origins. I plead Senior Martial Brother Yunshan to give me the necessary authority to execute the orders given.”
To check on a human?, Realm Monarch Yun Shan’s heart palpitated in shock, he didn’t dare to displease the guest and invited him to sit while contemplating, A subject of the Imperial Emperor? Which Imperial Emperor is he referring to? Or can it be that Imperial Emperor…
King Zi Guang thanked Realm Monarch Yunshan and seated himself. He casually waved his fingers through the blank space in front of him, creating a space rift. But unlike the usual space rift that had endless void in the rift, this one showed the images of the battle between Dong Ah and Xi He against Zhong Yue.
King Zi Guang glanced at the battle and sighed while shaking his head, “Shame, what a shame. I am embarrassed in front of Senior Martial Brother Yuns
han. These two are my disciples, I took them under my wing since their childhood and watched them grow. I initially sent them over to pressure this human so that he would be forced to reveal his full power and his true identity. But I never expected this….”
Rays flashed across Realm Monarch Yunshan’s eyes, he smiled and said, “And I was just wondering where two talents like that popped out from the Zi Wei Galaxy, so they are your disciples, no wonder they are so strong. Senior Martial Brother Zi Guang, you might’ve not heard of it yet, but this human, Zhong Yue, he is very strong. He has already surpassed the 81 levels of Pure Yang Lei Zhe, it’s only natural that your disciples are no match for him.”
“Has he already?” King Zi Guang frowned slightly, he mumbled, “A mere human can hold no such potential in them, unless, he has awakened… Hmm, no, no, that’s not right!”
He squinted his eyes slightly and stared at the totem patterns forming and fusing on Zhong Yue’s mortal body, his facial expression changed slightly and he shook his head, “Realm Monarch Bo Luo has ruined my plan! They are the innate totem patterns, from Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s ancestor’s [Innate Saint Ritual Mystic Art], it’s out of my expectation that he has imparted it to a human, and what’s more was that this human actually succeed in cultivating it!”
As King Zi Guang continued observing closely, he locked his brows deeper and mumbled, “There’s another art in him, not of the innate ones, but still on par with one. This human, what an ambitious heart has he contained in him, he has cultivated the Pure Yang mortal body and is still not satisfied, he wants to strive for the innate mortal body! How courageous!”
Pure Yang mortal body? Innate mortal body? , Realm Monarch startled and grew envious. Whether it be the Pure Yang mortal body or innate mortal body, he knew nothing of them all and never thought he would see it on Zhong Yue!
“But is he Fuxi or not, it is not something I can tell from his current state. Unless Dong Ah and Xi He are able to force him out of the sudden Dao attainment state and push him to unleash his true power. But by the looks of it, my disciples are still too weak to do so.”
