Rise of Humanity - Chapter 1137

Chapter 1137

After Zhong Yue killed Che Bifu, he went straight for Gu Suiqiu while Gu Suiqiu’s heart suddenly skipped a beat upon feeling Zhong Yue’s incoming assault .

He was already severely wounded by Imperial Emperor Tai Feng and Imperial Emperor Jiao Teng . These two Imperial Emperors were formidable opponents, each wielding a monarch weapon . Thus, his defeat was almost certain . To worsen the situation even more, Zhong Yue’s sudden intervention in the battle had sliced his legs away with the Seven Paths Reincarnation .

Gu Suiqiu shrieked in fear and pain, he wanted to recover his legs, but the two Imperial Emperors slammed their monarch weapons down and disintegrated him into smithereens before he could do so .

“My children, come and feast on the Ba Gu Army with me!” Imperial Emperor Jiao Teng shook her body and countless worm eggs were showered into the battlefield . The eggs hatched into insect gods and swarmed at the Ba Gu Army .

On the other hand, Xiang Zuoyu commanded the Si Xiang Army and controlled the giant beasts . While he was engaged in battle with Duo Yin and Fu Ya, he sensed the death of Bai Fengqi, Gu Suiqiu and the rest . He was shocked and quickly revealed his true form of a Si Xiang, a humongous beast with a white body, four elephant heads, and ten legs .

The humongous beast was a few times larger than the rest . As he turned into his true form, the giant beasts around him flew up and landed on his body while he strode out forward at an unstoppable pace . Even Imperial Emperor Duo Yin was unable to stop him and was sent flying backward .

Xiang Zuoyu was unstoppable in leaving, even Imperial Emperor Fu Ya was pushed back with blood coughing out of his mouth trying to stop Xiang Zuoyu .

It was at this moment that seven light wheels emerged in front of Xiang Zuoyu and turned into seven starry rivers . Bi An had arrived and stood on his path .

Xiang Zuoyu’s heart quivered in shock when he saw Bi An’s Seven Paths Reincarnation . Even though his cultivation level was higher than Bi An’s, he wasn’t daring enough to intercept Bi An and quickly took a detour to avoid Bi An .

Bi An hastily chased behind Xiang Zuoyu while the latter tried to flee .

Then, a loud shout could be heard coming from the front, it said, “Xiang Zuoyu, do you know Ling Zheng of the Juling Clan?”

Xiang Zuoyu looked to the front and saw Ling Zheng morphing into a giant even bigger than him . He was shocked and quickly turned to another direction .

The Juling Clan had always been known for its peerless achievements in the art of the mortal body . Even though he was a descendant to the monster monarch and exceptional in the art of mortal body, he still didn’t dare to compete with a Juling Imperial Emperor’s mortal body .

“Xiang Zuoyu, do you know who I am?” The innate demon dragon soared toward him while shouting, “Let me tell you, there’s even a poem about me…”

Xiang Zuoyu’s heart thumped heavily to see the innate demon god and quickly changed to another direction only to find a celestial lady with the leopard rosettes on her skin obstructing his path .

She was smiling as she asked, “Little Brother Xiang, where to?”

“Nu Fang!” Xiang Zuoyu shivered in cold and leaped upward . But Zhong Yue was coming down from above with the Stone Sentinel Maze .

Then, he quickly dived downward but was stopped by Yi Tianjun .

Xiang Zuoyu shuddered in fear . He glanced around and saw Imperial Emperor Jiao Teng, Tai Feng, Long Zhi, Fu Li, Yin Fukang, Jiang Yiqi, and the others rushing to the scene . His face turned pallid like snow and he knelt down with his ten legs and lowered his four heads, he said, “King Yi, spare us! We’ll surrender!”

Zhong Yue was surprised, he smiled, “You are the son of the monster monarch, your father is Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan’s mount . You have high prestige in the Heaven Court, and yet, you are still willing to surrender to me?”

Xiang Zuoyu said, “My father is dead and I am the Monster Sovereign of the monster race . My surrender will mean the surrender of all monsters in Zi Wei Galaxy . Please, King Yi, spare my life as I am useful to you . ”

Zhong Yue nodded, he summoned Old Man Xuan and Qi and said, “Please, elder brothers, forge four nose rings and bind on his noses to prevent his betrayal . His Si Xiang Army will be disbanded into two . Half of them will be distributed to the armies and the other half will still remain under his control . ”

Old Man Xuan and Qi nodded .

Then, Zhong Yue said gently, “Imperial Emperor Xiang . Since you and Bai Fengqi and the rest are comrades, you will be tasked with convincing their armies to give in . I wish not to slaughter them all . ”

Xiang Zuoyu was left with no choice, he headed to the three armies and said loudly, “The merciful King Yi will spare those who surrender and kill those who refuse to give in! What difference does it make serving a new lord? It’s now time to pick the right side! Our cultivations did not come easily, a lord certain to be defeated is not worth dying for! The Heavenly Monarch has outstayed his time, Xian Tian Palace is now the rightful ruler, it’s time we take part in shaping our own future and earn our merits in the new empire!”

As the commander of an army had personally come forward to persuade the gods to surrender, many of them laid down their arms and knelt to surrender .

When Xiang Zuoyu saw there were still some obstinate soldiers that didn’t surrender, he raised his voice and laughed, “What are you hesitating about? Even I, as a commander, has surrendered . All the blames and curses will only be directed to me, I am the one who will bear it all, no one will give their attention to your surrenders . ”

Then, many of Heaven Court’s generals and soldiers sighed quietly, they lowered their weapons and knelt on the ground with the others .

Whereas for the remaining few Heaven Court loyalists, they remained unflinching over Xiang Zuoyu’s persuasion . Then, Zhong Yue gave the order to exterminate those who had refused to surrender while those who surrendered were ordered to present their soul to him and left their brandings in the Six Paths Reincarnation of the Heavens before they were arranged into different armies .

By doing so, if they betrayed Zhong Yue in the future, their souls would return to the Heavens’ Six Paths Reincarnation after their deaths . There, they would be tortured painfully inside of the Heavens .

It was cruel but necessary to prevent them from fakingly surrendering .

Mu Xiantian used the same way to control Zhong Yue’s Xian Tian Royal Guards .

“My lord, the days-long pursuit and battle and lack of rest have exhausted the warriors . It is unwise to resume the battle now . ” Fu Qizhi stepped forth, he bowed and reported, “Pushing further will only cause more casualties . ”

Zhong Yue glanced over the other commanders and generals, and they nodded back at him .

“Mo Yin is almost here, his armies are strong and powerful, way above these Heaven Court’s four armies . A blood battle lies ahead of us . King Yi, our current condition is not suitable to push forward anymore . ” Tai Feng said, “Rest is what we need now . If we push forward recklessly now, our defeat is almost certain . ”

Zhong Yue mulled, he looked at King Zi Guang and said, “Senior martial brother, are you sure the monarch races will come to aid us when we attack Heaven Court?”

Rays flashed in King Zi Guang’s eyes, he smiled, “King Yi, rest assured . When your armies have knocked on Heaven Court’s doors, the other forces in the universe will react accordingly . There will be forces that will rise to join in the battle to conquer Heaven Court . Those with the lust for the throne will never be able to remain calm . ”

Zhong Yue was bestirred, he laughed happily and ordered, “Gentlemen, your rest will be given when we’ve marched to the Southern Heaven Gate! Make haste, we will set up our camps outside of Southern Heaven Gate! March on!”

The commanders had no choice but to return to their armies and ordered their soldiers to march toward the Southern Heaven Gate .

Whereas behind them, Mo Yin’s armies were only five stars away, chasing closely after Zhong Yue’s armies’ tail . Seeing it, Zhong Yue decisively ordered the armies to cast the monarch weapon and shattered the dimensions behind them, creating a blank space filled with the chaotic energies of the monarch weapons .

They were creating the chaotic blank space behind them as they march forward, greatly stalling Mo Yin’s speed .

But Mo Yin had summoned the Sign of Nine-Five . The 95 innate gods worked together and wiped away the monarch weapons’ chaotic energies, restoring balance to the space . Thus, although they were stalled, their speed wasn’t much slower either .

“King Yi sure is amazing, able to defeat the four armies in such a dire situation and short time . ” Mo Yin was worried, he said to Lou Zhengshi, “If he arrived at the Southern Heaven Gate, His Majesty’s fate will be greatly reduced, this will in turn, affect his ruling power . ”

Lou Zhengshi and the others were also worried . Pan Ji said, “Now, our only option is to worship my Panhu Clan’s five monarch spirits to descend from the Void World and kill King Yi outside of the Southern Heaven Gate!”

“How many lives are needed to summon the five monarch spirits?” Mo Yin said, “The blood sacrifice of so many lives will bring unpredictable consequences . Clan Master Pan Ji, you may even need to be prepared for the extinction of the Panhu Celestial Race . ”

Pan Ji’s heart stiffened up . It was a general consensus among the cultivators that the more lives one blood sacrificed, the more severe the retributions would be . If he had blood sacrificed billions of lives, there was a chance the retribution would be the Panhu Celestial Race’s extinction .

“We will never be able to stop him anymore when King Yi’s forces have arrived before Heaven Court, unless…”

Mo Yin looked Nine-Five and didn’t go on . The Nine-Five were strong, if they were willing to intercept Zhong Yue’s forces, they would be able to stop him .

But by doing so, the Nine-Five would suffer heavy casualties, most would die with only a few lucky enough to survive .

And if the Sign of Nine-Five was lost, Heavenly Monarch’s reputation would only fall even quicker!

There are still 36 innate gods in Heaven Court . They are also enough to stop King Yi temporarily . However, these innate gods belonged to Bi Luo Palace, would Bi Luo Palace willing to sacrifice them?

Mo Yin shook . Although Heaven Court was still the strongest faction, it was starting to falter . Its fate had been reducing every day and was at its lowest point now, even with him controlling the Almanac of Fate, he was unable to save the situation .

If it weren’t Zhong Yue but someone else he was facing, he would’ve won the war long ago already . But unfortunately, that wasn’t the case, and so he was fated to taste defeat by Zhong Yue’s hands .

There was no way he could stop Zhong Yue’s forces from attacking Heaven Court now . The real issue now was not Zhong Yue’s attack on Heaven Court anymore, but the battle between Heavenly Monarch and Queen Goddess and Mu Xiantian .

If Mu Xiantian was defeated and killed, Zhong Yue’s forces would be dismissed on its own . Then, the only choices left for Zhong Yue was to either run into hiding or plead his loyalty to Heavenly Monarch and serve as a Heaven Court subject .

However, if Heavenly Monarch and Queen Goddess were defeated, then an era of mayhem would begin!

At that time, the war for the throne would enter its most appalling phase . Qing He, Jin Tian, Jin Wu, Yang Hou, Yang Zun, Chang Sheng, and the other monarchs would use the cover of avenging Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s death to attack Mu Xiantian .

As of now, Heaven Court was the strongest, making it their targets . But once Heavenly Monarch was defeated, whoever claims Heaven Court would also claim the position of becoming their targets!

How I wish to let King Yi claim Heaven Court and make him their targets! Mo Yin clenched his teeth in resentment, but was feeling helpless at the same time .

Consort Tian Si never returned ever since she disappeared . Clearly, she had her own plans and her goal wasn’t in line with his . She was most likely waiting for him and Zhong Yue to battle and die together . Thus, she wasn’t dependable . Whereas Mister Wuji’s intelligence was a line weaker, he was fully suppressed by Zhong Yue . He too, was undependable .

After the evaluations, Mo Yin found himself helpless against the situation . The only thing he could depend on was to pray for Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess to defeat Mu Xiantian . One must say, it was a huge blow to his confidence .

Intelligence is inferior to strength . King Yi’s words have come true, He sighed deeply in his heart .

Suddenly, a general came reporting, he said, “Mister Mo, a celestial has arrived and wishes to see Mister . He said he is an old friend of Mister . ”

Mo Yin’s heart thumped a beat faster, he ordered the general to lead the celestial into the tent while he thought, I’m in a speed chase after King Yi’s forces, who would come looking for me at this time?

Soon after, the general lead a young man into the tent . He was a human Deity Emperor, young and handsome like a noble scholar, and bear the demeanor akin to the clouds . When he laughed happily when he saw Mo Yin, bowed and greeted, “Senior Martial Brother Mo . ”

“Senior Martial Brother Yun!”

Mo Yin was shocked and overjoyed, he quickly bowed back and greeted .

Then, he dismissed the generals and asked the young man to sit . He said sincerely, “Senior martial brother, finally you are here! This King Yi has left me in the worst situation, he is driving me nuts! Your intelligence is a hundred times stronger than mine, with your help, I will be able to defeat him!”
