Rise of Humanity - Chapter 1047

Chapter 1047: 1047

These Imperial Emperors delivered the killing blows based on each others’ weaknesses . They managed to kill their targets but their targets killed them too!

Feng Mingshan sat in the puddle of blood, looking blankly at the perfect mirror-like innate dragon scale . His eyes were filled with nothing but pure terror .

Unlike Feng Yulan and the others, he was too weak . The Imperial Emperors didn’t deign to take a puny figure like him into consideration and so he survived .

Feng Mingshan felt a shiver run down his spine . There was no danger whatsoever in this stage, even the innate dragon scale itself didn’t have any power . Yet, this stage had caused the greatest loss to the expedition team, having killed all of the Imperial Emperors trained by the hegemons like the Evil Monarch, Dark Monarch, and Demon Monarch!

In front of the innate dragon scale, they had all turned into devils!

Naturally, Feng Wuji survived too .

Feng Yulan and the Imperial Emperors aimed at the stronger ones, those that were threatening . And in comparison, Feng Mingshan, Feng Wuji was relatively weaker and punier; thus, they survived .

In front of the innate dragon scale, someone slowly stood up . They then suddenly turned into a flash of light and disappeared inside of the dragon scale’s slit .

Zhong Yue and Hundun Yu walked over and glanced at the bodies on the floor . Du Ya, Gao Yin, and the rest were all considered major figures . If they were in the Zi Wei Galaxy, they would be at the pinnacle of Imperial Emperors .

Yet here and now, they were dead in front of the innate dragon scale . All six of them together at once, it was as if Imperial Emperors were so common that they could be seen everywhere .

They weren’t stupid, even Feng Wuji couldn’t have tricked them . But it was because of their cunningness that they directed themselves to death .

The innate dragon scale reflected all of their weaknesses, but they were belonging to different sides and were usually hostiles .

When their weaknesses were made known to the others and the others’ weaknesses made known to them, the only thing they would’ve done was to quickly kill those who knew!

Because if they didn’t, then others would kill them!

There were still stages ahead of them, it was natural to assume they would be in many more dangerous positions . As no one would know when the others would deliver the killing blow to him in time to come, the easiest solution was to kill those who knew their weaknesses .

This was a decent plan, but with everyone having the same plan, it resulted in mutually assured destruction .

“We are the only ones left in the Ancestral Court,” Zhong Yue said as Feng Wuji’s scalps tingled .

He receded two steps back and smiled, “Mister Yi, I didn’t bring you troubles this time, there is no reason for you to kill me, is there?”

Zhong Yue smiled gently, he didn’t look at Feng Wuji but proceeded walking toward the slit while replying languidly, “You don’t seek troubles, I won’t give troubles . Senior Martial Brother Feng’s name is still something I will honor . ”

Feng Wuji heaved a breath of relief, he looked at the innate dragon scale and saw Zhong Yue’s and Hundun Yu’s reflections . Rays flashed in his eyes as he tried to find Zhong Yue’s weaknesses in the reflections .

Suddenly, Zhong Yue stopped, he stood in front of the dragon scale and allowed Feng Wuji to look . Then, he smiled, “Seen enough?”

Feng Wuji’s face changed slightly, he swiftly answered, “I have no ill intentions!”

Zhong Yue didn’t turn around but shook his head, “Don’t you worry, I won’t kill you now . I’ve been constantly searching for an excuse to kill you . Thus, I will let you take a clear look, I will present you with the chance to kill me . You can go ahead and remember all my flaws and weaknesses, you can even write them down . I won’t mind . ”

Feng Wuji was puzzled while Zhong Yue continued, “The flaws and weaknesses you see now, I wanted you to see them . The next time we meet, they will be no more and when you have gathered enough courage to kill me, you will be dead for sure . ”

Feng Wuji didn’t dare to say anything, he also didn’t dare to look at the innate dragon scale anymore .

Zhong Yue smiled gently, he and Hundun Yu entered the innate dragon scale’s slit and went past the stage .

Feng Mingshan was there, still sitting in the dirt . It was too huge a blow to him . His senior martial siblings were all dead, having all died in the Fuxi’s Ancestral Court .

Before the expedition, they all received Feng Tian Origin Lord’s private lessons and were filled with confidence, but now…

His Senior Martial Sister Yulan who was like a mother figure to him was dead .

Why would it happen?

If Feng Tian Origin Lord knew that this place was so precarious, why would they still be sent out?

The innate dragon scale was like a huge eye, glaring at them as if it were criticizing them for being weak, that it didn’t even need to use anything to kill them, and that just a mirror alone would be enough .

Feng Mingshan was dumbstruck, and suddenly, Feng Yulan’s corpse moved!

“Senior martial sister! Are you still alive?”

Feng Mingshan was surprised and overjoyed, but he was shocked to see Feng Yulan’s corpse levitating up from the ground . A wave of terrifyingly powerful energy billowed out of his body and suffused the surrounding air!

Her neck was broken, and her spirit and soul was extinguished, but a phoenix feather flew out from her forehead, flying around her neck and reconnecting the wound .

Feng Mingshan’s body shivered and he lowered his head .

That wasn’t his Senior Martial Sister Yulan, he could recognize the phoenix feather, it belonged to their grand ancestor Feng Tian Origin Lord .

His senior martial sister was already dead . What was controlling her body now was their grand ancestor’s phoenix feather, it contained Feng Tian Origin Lord’s powers and psyche, as if it was an incarnation of their grand ancestor .

Feng Yulan’s mortal body was now made the grand ancestor’s incarnation!

Feng Yulan, or more precisely, Feng Tian Origin Lord, glanced around at the corpses on the ground . She suddenly smiled and said, “My fellow Daoists, how long more are you gonna hide?”

Feng Mingshan’s body shook for a second as he looked around .

Du Ya’s bones were all fractured, but his body squirmed and stood up unstably . He opened his mouth to reveal two tongues . One of it moved like it was alive and swallowed the other tongue, then replacing the original tongue in Du Ya’s mouth .

Gao Yin’s corpse was also levitated and turned vertical from the ground . An eyeball flew out from his forehead and attached itself on his forehead . Gao Yin was also brought back to ‘life’ .

At the same time, Mo Yuanshu and Shen Qiushan have also ‘revived’ . Only the elder Dao kid was still on the ground, not moving at all .

The revived experts were brimming with unimaginable powers, their auras were hundreds and thousands of times stronger than Gao Yin, Du Ya, and the others before!

“Dark Monarch is still in the life-or-death closed door training . Seems like he is insisting on breaking through to the level of Dao God . ”‘Mo Yuanshu’ looked at the Dao kid’s corpse and smirked .

“What a brat, he is actually trying to stay ahead of us in becoming the Dao God . ”

‘Gao Yin’ smirked, “Should we give him a little surprise? Demon Monarch, let’s go ambush him, we’ll kill him in no time!”

‘Mo Yuanshu’ sneered coldly and ignored him .

Feng Mingshan’s heart turned cold, his face went pallid, he abruptly shouted, “WHY?!”

The experts turned around and looked at him .

Feng Mingshan was filled with rage in his heart as he condemned, “You’ve all hidden your psyches in them, why didn’t you come out earlier!? Why did you all still send us here?”

The more he spoke, the angrier he became . “You are all so damn high and mighty, why do you all still send your disciples here and sacrifice our lives?”

‘Gao Yin’ who was now Innate Evil Monarch’s incarnation, smiled as he replied, “You’ve just given the answer yourself, why ask for it again?”

“I’ve already given the answer?” Feng Mingshan was stunned, his heart turned cold and he murmured, “Sacrifice our lives…? This is the answer? You’ve sent us here so we could die? Grand ancestor, we are your disciples, we are your descendants, why do you want us dead…”

His body was shuddering, and his voice quivering .

Feng Tian Origin Lord looked deeply at him but before she could speak, Innate Evil Monarch has already helped her, “Junior, you really talk a lot . You should know, if it weren’t for you all that came and sacrifice your lives, how can we reach here? If we came ourselves, we might not even make it through the doorsteps to the Ancestral Court . ”

Feng Mingshan’s heart grew colder, he said with a mixed face of smiling and crying, “Grand ancestor, we are your disciples, your blood flows in us… . ”

Feng Tian Origin Lord replied a little unwillingly as she initially didn’t want to reveal the cruelness to him, “Mingshan, the life is nothing to me . I’ve been here since the birth of the universe . I’ve lived through the milestones of this universe . I’ve experienced more emotions than you can even fathom; I’ve given birth to so many that I lost count . I watched them as they all grew older to eventually die . I’ve seen all there is to see about living beings . We innate gods are inherently different from you mortals . You have love, hatred, joy, sadness, anger, sorrow; I have none of it . If you had an endless lifespan as I do, you will also understand . ”

Feng Mingshan could feel the blood withdrawing from his limbs, he mumbled, “We innate gods, you prenate living beings? Grand ancestor, are we not from the same race? We are all from the Tian Feng Sovereign Race! The Tian Feng Sovereign Race had existed since the Dark Age, we are the Fire Order Era’s sovereign race!”

Yuan Ya Deity King shook, and he couldn’t help but laugh, “Little brat, you and her were never the same race since the beginning . You are from the Tian Feng Sovereign Race, but Feng Tian Origin Lord is not . Your Tian Feng Sovereign Race is just her descendants . How are the two the same kind?”

Innate Celestial Monarch continued placidly, “Since the very beginning, the innate gods and the prenate living beings were never the same race . Those of the same race share the same ancestor . But we innate gods have no ancestors, we are your ancestors, so how could we be of the same race as the mortals?”

Feng Mingshan laughed loudly like a madman, he pulled on his hairs and ran away .

Everything he had been taught since birth was collapsing, nothing was left of him now . What he had once seen as an honorable race and what he used to be proud of, were all crumbling down into ashes!

His Dao heart had been crushed by the words of a few Innate Deity Kings .

Now, he just wanted to run away from this place, run away from this cold world!

“Fellow Daoists, you have crossed the line,” Feng Tian Origin Lord glanced over the few with a pair of cold eyes .

Innate Evil Monarch smirked, “We are merely speaking the truth to him . Who could’ve known that his Dao heart was so weak . ”

Feng Tian Origin Lord scoffed . She knew what they were planning . They saw Feng Mingshan’s eminent talent and thus, proceeded to tell him the cruel truth so that they could crush his Dao heart!

“What a talent, shame that he has gone mad now . ” Innate Demon Monarch smiled warmly .

Yuan Ya Deity King smiled and said, “Let’s go . That little Fuxi and another one has already moved on . We would have to depend on them to be able to reap Dao Venerate Fu Min’s treasures . ”

The five experts strode forward but suddenly, Innate Evil Monarch stopped, he turned around and looked at Feng Wuji . He asked while smiling, “Little friend, do you want to follow?”

Beads of cold sweat rolled down Feng Wuji’s forehead, he smiled and flattered, “Seniors, this junior is too puny . I shall refrain from burdening seniors’ in your quests . ”

“Little sly loach,” Innate Evil Monarch laughed and strode away .

Feng Wuji immediately turned and left . His expressions were shifting continuously, he thought, These old brats are the most cunning foxes . Zhong Yue will surely suffer this time! Hmph, acting so high and mighty in front of me . Can you do the same in front of them?!
