  Zhong Yue then Heaven Reincarnation Origin Mirror, shone it towards the dimensions but there was nothing reflected in the mirror!

  Cold sweat started dripping down from Zhong Yue’s forehead upon finding nothing at all no matter what he did, the rumbles from the ancient ship was also intensifying with every passing second. This that they would not stay here forever and that they would be swept away by the Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch!

  If he did not retrieve them right now, this great opportunity would slip through his fingers!

  “Crown Prince Fu Shang, do you have any ways of retrieving them?” asked Zhong Yue as he whipped out the Six Paths Bead.

  However, the time freeze applied to the Six Paths Bead as well, Fu Shang stood there like a statue, moving no finger nor speaking a word.

  “Xin Huo! Xin Huo?”

  Similarly, Xin Huo was also frozen and Zhong Yue could only walk around the bow nervously, “There must be some way! Dao Venerate Fu Min left them here and he must have left a way for me to retrieve them! He saw me so he left them here after his death. He knows that I have a way of taking them back!”

  Suddenly, the ancient ship started moving inch by inch. Hundun Yu seemingly moved a finger as the time freeze was starting to disperse!

  I see it now!

  Something struck Zhong Yue and he immediately cast [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], Dao Venerate Fu Min’s art!

  Back then, I performed [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture] in front of him so the key to retrieve these spirit balls will definitely be [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture]!

  Hong long—-

  The ancient ship trembled, the thousand wings flapped quickly and charged forward after being swept away by Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch.

  At the same time, the spirit balls emerged from the void, flowed into Zhong Yue’s body like fireflies in a speed even quicker than Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch!

  Meanwhile, Hundun Yu, Xin Huo and Fu Shang also recovered from the time freeze!

  Chapter 1026: [Immortal Divine Psyche] |

  I was right!

  Failing to keep his cool, Zhong Yue was on the brink of jumping up and down, the decision he made was the right one!

  He had finally retrieved the item left behind for him by Dao Venerate Fu Min!

  What are these spirit balls though?

  Zhong Yue was deeply puzzled; these spirit balls were definitely of the utmost importance for Dao Venerate Fu Min to pass them onto him even after his death. Besides, there were quite a few of these spirit balls. What were they that even a supreme existence was treating them so seriously?

  He took out a spirit ball and examined it closely, What is this?

  As he looked into the spirit ball, he actually saw a mysterious scene, inside the ball was Star River and there were six of them!

  Six Paths Bead?

  Zhong Yue was surprised and when he looked into another spirit ball, he saw the same thing!

  One by one, he checked the spirit balls and inside every one of these spirit balls were six Star Rivers, and coincidentally, there were 3,000 spirit balls in total!

  Alright, I mustn’t go any deeper than this or I will enter the first Six Path World! It would be terrible if I triggered Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s trap!

  Decisively, Zhong Yue rammed the ancient ship towards Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch’s walls, charged out of Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch. The ancient ship now floated in between two massive Six Paths World, the Bo Luo and An Xiang Six Paths World.

  On the ancient ship, Zhong Yue examined one of the spirit balls, his psyche dwelled into it and that was when he noticed that the six Star Rivers in the spirit balls were just illusions formed from enormous psyche.

  This was no Six Paths Bead but a manifestation of a powerful being’s psyche.

  The six Star Rivers in these 3,000 spirit balls also came in different form and none of them looked the same.

  What are they? What can they do? Why did Dao Venerate Fu Min pass them to me?

  Time after time, Zhong Yue attempted to activate these spirit balls but no matter what he did, nothing happened.

  After some time, he was left with no other choice but to give up; the Six Path Worlds in these spirit balls were made of mass psyche, though they looked extremely powerful in a way, Zhong Yue had no idea how to use them.

  “Zhong Yue, these spirit balls contain massive psyche, perhaps only with equivalently powerful psyche will you be able to activate them.”

  Xin Huo continued, “Monarch Ji Jie’s art focuses on the cultivation of psyche, it’s called [Immortal Divine Psyche]. This art cultivates psyche to a level where your psyche would never deplete and perhaps, this art can let you activate the wonders in these spirit balls.

  “Monarch Ji Jie’s [Immortal Divine Psyche]?”

  Zhong Yue’s heart moved as he had never learned of such an art that specifically cultivated psyche. While [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art] also cultivated psyche, it lacked further advanced knowledge, which made it difficult to master.

  There were many powerful races in this universe with immense psyche power; the Tian Jue Celestial Race’s eighth divine sense was terrifying, Zhong Yue had also seen Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s great Sun Divine Psyche and Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s Demon Monarch Psyche, and they were all extremely powerful.

  Hence, he really needed Monarch Ji Jie’s [Immortal Divine Psyche].

  Xin Huo then taught it to him and said, “The psyche is refined in the psyche ocean, only through intense training will one’s power increase greatly. Back then, you had [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art] and that helped you to set up a solid foundation. But that is, after all, Sui Sovereign’s art. It is different to the Fuxi Celestial Race’s cultivation heritage. We have our own art that refines psyche. This art I taught you will allow you to increase your psyche to a point even stronger than you can ever imagine!”

  Zhong Yue silently went through [Immortal Divine Psyche] and he had to admit that this art was incredibly powerful!

  The [Immortal Divine Psyche] had pushed the Fuxi Celestial Race’s psyche to the peak, allowing the psyche to be as sharp as every weapon in this world and achieve indestructible psyche!

  This art was divided into ten levels. Upon reaching the ninth psyche level, one’s psyche would be undefeatable, his psyche could also be turned into a power that could rival a real monarch weapon!

  Once reaching the final level, one’s psyche would be indestructible and last eternally. Even if the person’s body died, their psyche would remain in this world.

  “But it’s still useless.”

  Xin Huo shook his head, “Monarch Ji Jie had swayed from the real path. What’s the point of achieving immortal psyche if your body, soul and Yuan Shen dies? I told him long ago that no matter how powerful his psyche is, his body and Yuan Shen would not last forever. But he insisted on having his psyche remain eternally in this universe. It’s really pointless.”

  Zhong Yue was speechless, Monarch Ji Jie’s psyche had reached the peak and from Zhong Yue’s point of view, there was no flaw in his art except for the absence of Six Paths Reincarnation.

  But there was nothing Monarch Ji Jie could do about that; back then, every art was not as advanced as the ones right now and Six Paths Reincarnation had little impact on [Immortal Divine Psyche].

  With everything I have accumulated from cultivating the [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art], it will be very quick to raise my psyche to the eighth level. With the addition from the herb wine those galaxy raiders drank with me, I will spend even less time to reach the eighth level. But the rest will be difficult…

  After achieving the eighth level, whatever Zhong Yue accumulated would be depleted and it would take him thousands of years to achieve the ninth level. Besides, there was no guarantee that he would reach that level even if he only cultivated [Immortal Divine Psyche].

  And it would take an
even longer time to achieve the final level!

  Anyway, let’s head to the ancient universe first to locate the Ancestral Court!

  Just as Zhong Yue was about to activate the ancient ship, a drumbeat came from the dimension before blasting the dimension apart while drums came flying out from the dimension cracks!

  On each of the drum stood a Heavenly Warden, expressionless and filled with killing intent.

  “By Heaven’s order!”

  A robotic voice came from the Heavenly Wardens as they announced, “We are here to arrest the culprit who disrupted order in Heaven Court, intrude Heavenly Prison and murdered the wardens. If you are not related to this culprit, you’d best leave right now!”

  On the ancient ship, Hundun Yu looked around in confusion and he asked, “There are any other person around, who are they referring to?”

  “Probably you. They do not have their own thinking, it seems like they are created and programmed to carry out fixed procedures!”

  Zhong Yue inhaled deeply, activated the ancient ship and rammed it into the endless dimensions as they fled away!

  But these Heavenly Wardens did not come unprepared, unlike those wardens who died in the ancient continent, these three wardens had brought along three drums, a horrendous divine weapon that contained [Daoless Heaven]!

  If it were only the three wardens, Zhong Yue would not have been worried, but with those drums, Zhong Yue wouldn’t be able to hold them off without a monarch weapon!

  Back then, Si Ming was only able to resist the drums with the Shao Hao Bell. Now that he had no monarch weapon with him, he would be no match for these three wardens!

  Besides, it had been shown just how serious these wardens were towards him with the number of drums they brought with them!

  At the same time, the dimension rumbled, the ancient ship lost control of its wings suddenly under the influence of the drum beats, the massive ship lost its balance and rammed out from the dimension before rolling all the way down into An Xiang Six Paths Worlds.

  As the drums were beaten, [Daoless Heaven] erupted, covering all Daos and even Zhong Yue and Hundun Yu who were both on the ship lost control of their Dao, rendering them powerless at once!

  Hundun Yu let out a battle cry, trying his best to activate his arts. Six light wheels emerged at the back of his head and after being struck by an invisible power, he let out a groan before his light wheels died out.

  “Mister Yi, we should have brought the tree with us.”

  Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched, activating [Innate Eight Trigrams]. Totem patterns flew around him, the sun and moon in his eyes raged, four diagrams emerged and seven light wheels emerged!

  Beng beng beng—

  His seven great Yuan Shen secret realms shut down right away, the [Innate Eight Trigrams] disintegrated and none of his power was displayed.

  The three Heavenly Wardens pressed on with the drums while the ancient ship kept away its wings to protect them as it entirely lost control and rammed into the Heaven Court in An Xiang Six Paths World.

  Meanwhile, the Realm Monarch, Realm Lords and the other powerful magnates in An Xiang Six Paths World looked into the skies, where a massive warship lit the skies up as it descended towards Heaven Court with relentless force!

  The vibe it gave off upon falling down was just intimidating!

  “Incoming!”

  A divine general shouted, “Set up the barrier!”

  But it was already too late, the ancient ship had already rammed into the Heaven Court before the barrier was set up, shattering palaces and compounds, stopping only after sliding across the ground for a few miles.

  The An Xiang Six Paths World’s Realm Monarch Xiang Yinhan and Realm Lords were stunned by this scene and at the next second, they all saw three black drums floating above their heads. With a drum beat, every single god in An Xiang Six Paths World lost control over their energy. Daos vanished, turning gods, who sat high above all else, to ordinary mortals!

  This feeling was definitely unpleasant for them. Once they had acquired such unrivaled power, to be able to hold the lives of countless mortals in the palm of their hands, having that power suddenly stripped from them left them feeling a certain type of way.

  In the very same second, a clear and intimidating dragon roared sounded from the ancient ship, attracting the attention of the Realm Monarch and Realm Lords. They found a giant with dragon head rising, his body enlarged with visible speed and he was shrouded in raging divine fire!

  The divine fire burnt fiercely and the dragon-headed giant felt like it was a Deity King from the ancient times, condensing with divine fire and the wielder of ancient power. Using his flame as a weapon, this giant turned his fire into a whip and slammed it mercilessly onto an approaching black drum, sending it all the way backwards with even more power!

  The giant then slapped onto another drum, creating a loud creaking voice and sending the drum flying away. But he was also sent flying away by the impact along with the massive ship!

  Chapter 1027: Accomplices |

  As soon as the giant was sent flying away, the last drum charged forward and slammed onto the ancient ship.

  Beng—

  The drum emitted a massive shockwave upon crashing onto the ancient ship, unleashing a massacre upon the An Xiang Six Paths World. Countless gods started disintegrating as the Daos in their body shattered, the body rotted, the life essence slammed out from them and in a second, the Heaven Court was filled with skeletons!

  These gods were not strong enough, resulting in a quick but painful death. When their bodies and Yuan Shen rotted, they were still standing, and as a result, countless skeletons stood on the ground. They were still holding onto their own weapons!

  Then, the divine weapons shattered into dust along with the skeletons.

  The survivors were all frightened and shook for their comrades died right beside them and turned into ashes before their eyes!

  The horror was indescribable!

  “The Heavens!”

  The Realm Monarch, Xiang Yinhan immediately shouted, “Activate the Heavens!”

  As much as they were not as good as Bo Luo Six Paths World, the An Xiang Six Paths World was still ranked in the middle of the 3,000 Six Paths World, which also meant that they were not to be underestimated.

  In the Heaven Court, one after another Heavens descended into the skies and started pumping energy to form a barrier that defended them from the terrifying drum beats.

  Like rainbows drawn across the skies, these Heavens formed a barrier around but as the drum was beaten again, the rainbows thinned and disappeared.

  Fortunately, the drum beats did not sound continuously or even the Heavens would not be able to hold themselves.

  Meanwhile, Zhong Yue revealed his Sui Sovereign true Form, borrowing the power from the fire spirits to resist the drums, breathing out burning fiery dragons as he slammed the drums away!

  These fire spirits were spirits from the Fire Order Era, born in the Imperial Star and endowed with power beyond imagination since birth. While the Drum of Dusk was powerful, they were, after all, replicas of the real monarch drum, hence, Zhong Yue was able to fend them off with the fire spirits’ power.

  These Drum of Dusk were powerful with the might of [Daoless Heaven], but if the target exceeded their suppression ability, then the Drum of Dusk wouldn’t be able to impact the target at all. Back then, Si Ming once triumphed over the Drum of Dusk with the Shao Hao Bell, shattering the Drum of Dusk and killing the warden.

  As the battle progressed, the Drum of Dusk slowly eroded Zhong Yue’s power bit by bit. Even with the support of the ancient Fire Order Era’s fire spirits’ help, the drum beats were still impacting him heavily.

  Unlike the gods in the An Xiang Six Paths World’s gods that were withstanding the stray shockwaves from the drum beats, Zhong Yue was taking the drum beats head-on. He felt that his body was about to disintegrate!

  Can’t tarry anymore!

  Without hesitation, Zhong Y
ue sent the Drum of Dusk away and immediately escaped with the thousand winged ancient ship.

  “Don’t even think about it!”

  The three Heavenly Wardens slammed onto the Drum of Dusk at the same time, unleashing power that suppressed the ancient ship’s wings, forcing it to retract its wings but the ship still managed to charge out from the Heaven Court and into the space with the momentum.

  Two of the wardens gave chase right away and Bing Yin remained on the same spot.

  Upon seeing Bing Yin approaching, Realm Monarch Xiang Yinhan’s heart thumped and he immediately raised his guards up.

  Instead of attacking, Bing Yin took out a medal and said emotionlessly, “By Heaven’s order, An Xiang Six Paths World’s Realm Monarch, accept your order!”

  Upon identifying the medal, Xiang Yinhan’s expression changed right away and he knelt on one knee and said respectfully, “Please, the order.”

  With no emotion, Bing Yin said, “Send word to the rest of the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds. Make sure they send men to intercept the rebel! Tell the rest to cooperate with us Heavenly Wardens.”

  The Realm Monarch immediately nodded and Bing Yin flew away quickly on the Drum of Dusk.

  Heavenly Wardens! No wonder they are so strong!

  Xiang Yinhan’s expression was really bad and he thought, But it is a little problematic to notify the other Realm Monarchs. Their situation is also pretty bad now that the rebels, monsters and everyone are on a rampage. Half of the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds had been flipped upside down and my An Xiang Six Paths World will fall at any time. Anyway, I should tell the few around me and see if they could assist.

  On the other side, Zhong Yue slightly let his guard down and to Hundun Yu’s horror, Zhong Yue’s flesh fell off and revealed what remained of Zhong Yue was just his skeleton.

  “Ah, no worries.”

  With fire from his hand, Zhong Yue burnt to fallen flesh away and his flesh regenerated in a second, recovering himself back to normal and said, “The drums’ power had seeped deep into my body, injected rotting power so I had to replace the rotten flash. Are you alright?”
