Rise of Humanity - Chapter 881

Chapter 881: 881

“Who dares to challenge the Ninth Divine City!? ”

The Ninth Divine City was guarded by an extensive number of experts, the Creators alone numbered over ten . But despite this, they were still helpless against Wu Dulang who was an innate demon god on the level of an Imperial Emperor .

After all, Wu Dulang’s power was among the top-tier Imperial Emperors, how could Creators possibly be a match for him?

However, the Ninth Divine City wasn’t just an ordinary city too . It was located at the center of the ancient universe, like a stone that fixed the order in the ancient universe . No matter how long it had been and how many changes had taken place, all of the ancient universe would continue to orbit around this divine city .

“A mere innate demon god, how dare you?” The gods in the city were unflustered, they surged out their arcane energy and immediately, the whole divine city glimmered in godly rays while marvelous totem patterns rose on its surface .

The totem patterns were combining together, joining in pieces and suffused with incredible power . In just a glance, Zhong Yue relaxed himself and said, “Wu Dulang is in trouble now!”

These totem patterns were the monarch patterns, totem patterns left behind by the monarch-level presences . Moreover, there wasn’t just an Imperial Monarch that had left their totem patterns here to ensure the city’s safety, for as much Zhong Yue could see, there were more than fifty of them!

The Eighth Divine City was lifted on one of Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s statue’s hands . When worshipped, the gargantuan statue of Heavenly Monarch Di Ming would come to life and help defend the city .

But the Ninth Divine City was of much higher importance than the Eighth Divine City . This was the core of the ancient universe and the point that linked the ancient universe to the Zi Wei Galaxy . Clearly, all the previous Heavenly Monarchs valued the city greatly, so much so that they all left their Dao totem patterns inscribed in the city .

One could imagine just how terrifying this divine city was to be protected by all the previous Heavenly Monarchs!

The head formed from Wu Dulang’s demonic Qi gnawed down on the silk-like teleportation beam and the peach-sized Ninth Divine City . Then, the monarch auras burst out from the divine city and like shadows met with light, all of the demonic Qi was wiped away!

A trail of demonic blood was splattered across the space as the innate demon god rushed away from the divine city . As such, the teleportation beam was left unharmed and Zhong Yue, Fu Li, and Mu Suge were able to arrive safely in the Ninth Divine City .

As the invader left, the various monarch auras dwindled and so did the glimmer of the monarch totem patterns . The guards in the city also returned to their respective shifts and duties as if nothing had happened just seconds before .

Fu Li grinned, “Wu Dulang has underestimated this city . Truth is, even the Eighth Divine City is beyond his league, let alone the Ninth Divine City . Which is way you only see me attacking the Sixth and Seventh Divine City but never the Eighth . I don’t even dare to go there . If the little brat Heavenly Monarch’s statue is worshipped and brought to life, even I can’t say for sure if I can escape alive . ”

The three walked into the teleportal stage and a huge light beam engulfed them, sending them to the Zi Wei Galaxy .

“Li Yang, don’t you ever fall into my hands!” Wu Dulang bolted away in panic . Not only did the blastwave from the Ninth Divine City’s monarch patterns injure him further, all of the recovering wounds were also torn open again and the suppressed injuries ravaged his body even further . The innate demon god’s body couldn’t stop flowing blood out of it .

Wu Dulang was infuriated, the new and old wounds and the older recovering wounds have stacked together, causing his cultivation level to wane greatly .

Cultivation was particularly difficult for the innate gods, it took him millenia to cultivate to the level of Imperial Emperor . If he were to fall back to the level of Creator, it would take him eons to cultivate back to the Imperial Emperor level!

“If I never avenge this and make him pay, how can I hold my heads high anymore?!” Wu Dulang cursed and suddenly, he coughed a series of blood out .

It was at this moment, a shady and sinistrous voice came teasing, “Wu Dulang, Wu Dulang, a glorious innate demon god you are but look at you now, this state you are in, even I can’t help but mourn your misfortunes . ”

Wu Dulang gave a cold sneer, he forcibly suppressed his wounds and traced the abrupt voice, “Which senior martial brother is it that is playing a joke with me? Why don’t you show yourself?”

The voice was continuously changing places, its movement was so mystical that even Wu Dulang couldn’t have tracked it .

All of a sudden, the space rippled softly as an old man who seemed to have merged himself with the space appeared in front of Wu Dulang . He smiled, “Wu Dulang, do you recognize the Zi Wei Heaven Court’s Gui Youming?”

Wu Dulang was shocked, “Ghost Master Gui Youming? Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s advisor!”

The old man donned in luxurious clothes smiled, “It is I . ”

Wu Dulang’s expressions were changing violently . Other than being the Left Prime Minister of the Heaven Court, Ghost Master Gui Youming was also an expert himself . Long ago, there were already rumors of him ascending to the level of an Imperial Monarch, that he was the strongest and most terrifying presence of the Gui Shen Race!”

His forte wasn’t his strength, but his wisdom . Ghost Master Gui Youming was a great helper to Di Ming’s coronation as the Heavenly Monarch!

“Advisor Youming, what do you have for me?” Wu Dulang asked politely .

Gui Youming smiled, “Wu Dulang, you think too much . I am not here for you, it is His Majesty’s order that brought me here . I only ran into you by chance . I saw you defeating by the Ninth Divine City and thus, came to visit . ”

Wu Dulang muffled a groan, his eyes glimmered vigilantly while Gui Youming laughed . “Your enemy, Li Yang, now stands as one of Xian Tian Palace and is known as Mu Xiantian’s Mister Yi . Wu Dulang it’s almost impossible now to take him down on your own . But I have a way for you to avenge yourself . Zi Wei is now in chaos, and His Majesty’s biggest enemy is Mu Xiantian . If you pledged your loyalty to His Majesty, you will take your revenge sooner than you’d expect . ”

“Pledge my loyalty to the little old man Di Ming?” Wu Dulang’s face changed drastically, he gave a cold sneer, “The ancient universe belongs to no one, not your Heaven, not your Heavenly Monarch . Di Ming wants my loyalty? Dream on!”

Gui Youming squinted his eyes and said happily, “Then, I am afraid you will see yourself dead here . ”

Wu Dulang’s face changed again, then, he suddenly laughed, “Ghost Master, joking I am! What benefits will you give me if I pledge my loyalty to His Majesty Heavenly Monarch Di Ming?”

“Wealth you can never imagine, power beyond your reach, countless enslaved beneath you, land and territory are yours to command, and joy you can embrace every single moment you live . ”

“Fantastic!” Wu Dulang was overjoyed, he said, “But I am now gravely wounded, my cultivation level is…”

Gui Youming took out a spirit pellet and flicked it toward Wu Dulang, he smiled, “This is the Innate Demon Pellet concocted by the paragon behind His Majesty, it’s more than sufficient to take care of your injuries . ”

Wu Dulang received it and inspected meticulously . When he heard Gui Youming, he trembled in shock and asked in a quivering voice, “The presence behind Heavenly Monarch, could it be that senior…?”

Gui Youming nodded softly, “My expedition today is exactly ordered by His Majesty to pay the senior a visit . Come with me . ”

Wu Dulang immediately kept his arrogance and followed behind Gui Youming carefully toward the deeper regions of the ancient universe .

…

“Zi Wei is really in chaos . ”

Zhong Yue and the others returned to the Zi Wei Galaxy and were on their way back to Xian Tian Palace . Along the way, all they saw were turmoils . Almost every race in the Zi Wei Galaxy was sucked into this huge swirl of chaos . War raged about, territories were conquered, and countless were enslaved .

Although the Heaven Court was strong and powerful, the turmoil were happening everywhere, it was impossible to suppress all of them .

Furthermore, the incumbent Heavenly Monarch somewhat seemed careless toward the chaos running in the Zi Wei Galaxy . He was more inclined toward saving his forces for Xian Tian Palace and the other monarch races .

Along their way, Zhong Yue also saw countless fiends and mischievous creatures walking out from the shadows into the light . The Curse Spirit Disaster God, Million Venom Plague God, Seven Slaughtering God, and Northern Dipper Death God have all walked out from their caves .

These four Innate Spirit Bodies were almost dubbed useless in the eras of peace and harmony . However, when they were placed in the warring eras, their strengths would be fully unleashed .

Zhong Yue saw a Million Venom Plague God who has sneaked into his enemy’s territory and brought death upon a whole race . He saw the Seven Slaughtering God who hovered above the battlefield and commanded a million gods in war!

This Seven Slaughtering God was using the killing intents coming from the war to boost his cultivation progress .

Zhong Yue had also seen the mysterious Northern Dipper Death God . The Northern Dipper had always been said to be able to control death . In the war, the Northern Dipper Death God held a Book of Life and Death on one hand and a writing brush on the other . Whichever enemy he encountered, he would simply wave his enemy’s life away from the book!

Whereas in the Zi Wei Galaxy, there were also a few Curse Spirit Disaster Gods that rained disasters and misfortunes all across the galaxy .

With these Innate Spirit Bodies that were useless before coming into play, the Zi Wei Galaxy was made even chaotic than before!

And the Heaven Court’s control over the Zi Wei Galaxy has also dropped to its lowest . The races were warring on their own without even heeding to the monarch’s orders!

“The Zi Wei Galaxy is much messier than the ancient universe . ” It was truly an eye-opening experience for Fu Li and he laughed .

Zhong Yue shook, “The ancient universe will soon be worse than the Zi Wei Galaxy . Not only the ancient universe, but even the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds will also be in turmoil . Chaos will swept across all with no exception! I’m afraid, it will only stop when a faction wins and claims the throne . ”

Fu Li’s heart skipped a beat, even with the wildman’s unlawness, he was still shocked by Zhong Yue’s words .

The three traveled for two years time and finally, reached the Xian Tian Palace . Zhong Yue ordered Fu Li to wait outside of the palace while he and Mu Suge entered to report to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian .

…

Meanwhile, Consort Tian Si and Celestial Emperor Bi Xie have arrived in the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds and were rushing their way to the Yong Ming Six Paths World .

Consort Tian Si took out the Karmic Line given by Zhong Yue and ran calculations on it . Suddenly, her eyes brightened up and she lead the way toward the outskirts of the Yong Ming Six Paths World .

The two spent months before they finally found their destination . It was a stellar system exiled from the Yong Ming Six Paths World . It was surrounded with an air of misfortune that was so tense it formed a region of misfortunes . Consort Tian Si and Celestial Emperor Bi Xie eventually made their way through the region of misfortunes while escaping death by a whisker numerous times .

“Dear guests, you’ve come far enough . What do you need here?” A sweet voice could be heard asking . Consort Tian Si and Celestial Emperor Bi Xie looked over and saw a young and pretty village lady holding a flower basket standing in the flower bushes . She was accompanied by a young man and were both looking at them curiously .

Consort Tian Si calmed herself, she bowed slightly and replied, “We are here to ask for your help to save our lives . ”

Celestial Emperor Fei Yan examined the uninvited guests from tip to toe . She was surprised and said, “You two have killed a great deal of lives, as such, their Karma gave cursed your lives now . Death will arrive soon enough, and it is inescapable . True, Little Bai and I are able to save your lives, but the questions is, why should we?”

“Can the two of you recognize this silk line?” Consort Tian Si took out the Karmic Line given by Zhong Yue and asked in hope .

“No . ” Celestial Emperor Fei Yang and Bai Canghai shook togetherly .

Bai Canghai sneered frigily, “But I recognize this horn . I’ve had the fate to cross path with Bi Xie in the past; but shame, his grand ancestor has shamelessly possessed his life . As such, Brother Zhong has lamented for a long time, he said he had lost a fellow Daoist who could stand on par with him and grow together with him . This horn, it is Celestial Emperor Bi Xie’s Warhorn, and thus, you should be Celestial Emperor Bi Xie? I recognize this face, it belongs to Bi Xie’s body . ”

Rays flashed across Celestial Emperor Bi Xie’s eyes, he asked in a hoarse voice, “You came from the Ancestral Star?”

Bai Canghai nodded and smiled coldly, “You want us to save you? Impossible! Brother Zhong has been wanting to kill you, but you’ve been good at hiding . But today, you’ve come to deliver your life? I will just have to trigger the curse in you and bring forth the Heavenly Retributions earlier, that is all it takes to kill you!”

Celestial Emperor Bi Xie immediately burst out his killing intent while Consort Tian Si frowned . She was hesitating if she should flip the table against these two Innate Curse Spirits .

It was at this moment, a voice came descending down from the skies, “Celestial Emperor Fei Yan, Brother Bai, help them . The curse and Karma in them are able to boost your strengths further, even pushing you two to the levels of Creators . ”

The crowd in the planet looked out in shocked and exclaimed, “The Zhong Shan Clan’s member!”

“Brother Zhong!”

“The Fuxi!” Consort Tian Si was agitated, her eyes filled with waters and her voice was trembling, “Are you the Fuxi in the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds? Human Tian Si pleads the Fuxi to come out…”
