Sage Monarch - Chapter 679

Chapter 679: 679

Moments before, Yang Qi had been contemplating the mysteries of the future world and gaining scattered bits of enlightenment .

Eventually he exhaled, and the quintessence around him trembled with a sensation of extreme ancientness . He was finally stepping into the Antiquity-Demolishing level, causing tribulation to appear . He summoned his God Legion Paradise, which made the tribulation seem weak in comparison .

Within his sea of energy, his sage child stirred and the rage of the dao of heaven and its heavenly tribulation turned into vital energy that coursed through him . The particles inside him were like chains that wrapped around the energy and kept it locked down tight .

Moments later, Yang Qi was fully in the eighth stage of Antiquity-Demolishing, making him an immortal emperor .

Unfortunately, that wasn’t high enough . He had to at least reach Dao-Demolishing, and hopefully the Godmyth level . Therefore, he didn’t pause for even a moment, but instead continued with his cultivation, burning his own life force in the attempt .

RUMBLE!

A tremor ran through him as lightning of fate formed, and even as he prepared to push forward into another breakthrough, his soul trembled and he opened his eyes . ‘What’s happening? I have a strange premonition . And it’s not connected to me personally, but rather my immortal-slaying clone in the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart . ’

The Wheel of Fate appeared above his head, allowing him to see into the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart . Inside, there were fluctuations that seemed to be instigated by some event some distance away .

It was like a butterfly effect of some sort .

Apparently, something big was happening in the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart—something that wasn’t an immediate threat to him, but could turn into incredible danger .

WHOOSH!

He rose to his feet and flew into the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart, heading to the location where his immortal world was growing . This was his foundation, his true headquarters, and he had put it here so that he could be free to act without hesitation on the outside . But now he had the same sensation one would experience when a fire broke out in one’s own backyard .

“Did anything happen recently?” he asked of his father, Yang Zhan, who was now one of the most important patriarchs in the Yang Clan and had a hand in almost all of its daily affairs .

“Nothing! Everything has been very peaceful and quiet . As you can see, everything is quite orderly . The Sage Monarch Heaven is like an enormous empire . The population has already exceeded three hundred trillion and is continuing to grow . ”

It was hard to imagine what the faith power of three hundred trillion cultivators was like, but Yang Qi could sense it pouring toward him at all moments .

“I see, Father . Very well, keep things going as they are and focus on your cultivation . I expect to come across some good fortune soon, and when I do I’ll help you to reach the Godmyth level . ” 

Leaving his father, Yang Qi headed to the center of the Sage Monarch Heaven to find his immortal-slaying clone .

“I sensed the same strange fluctuations,” the clone said, his brow furrowed . “It seems to me that someone very powerful is carrying out a massacre . That’s the only thing which would give rise to a killing aura like this . Based on what I can sense, there’s someone else here in the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart who has some of King Immortal-Slayer’s legacy medallions . Perhaps you should use the power of the God Legion Seal to lock down this part of the chart, lest this other individual sense your medallions . ”

“I’ve already done that,” Yang Qi’s true self said . “Right now we need to determine what exactly is happening . We’re heading into a very critical juncture, with the Brahman Immortal World just on the brink of rising to a higher level . The passage to the future world will be opening soon, and the last thing we need is a disaster here . ”

“Let’s get started, then . ”

The clone and the true self immediately set to work .

The clone produced the legacy medallions which were covered with a protective golden light . Meanwhile, the Wheel of Fate turned and eventually produced an image . It looked like billions of trillions of souls howling in rage, and countless destroyed planes of existence .

“Whoever this is, he’s masking his presence . But my Wheel of Fate can see through anything and everything . ” He spat some blood energy onto the Wheel of Fate and the image first grew blurry, then began resolving into spots of violet light .

There were a host of violet figures, pulsing with incredible energy . Although it was impossible to see their faces clearly, they were obviously very strong .

“That… that aura . It’s so familiar . Those magical laws, they’re from the Tusita Heaven! Don’t tell me people from the Tusita Heaven are here! That's a thirty-third ranked immortal world, and definitely not to be taken lightly . These people must be terrifying!”

Yang Qi felt himself going taut from anxiety as he realized that the situation was definitely grim .

“Destiny Piercing; Tusita Heaven Magical Laws; Be Broken!” He exhaled not blood energy, but rather the same violet energy that formed the magical laws of the Tusita Heaven . After all, he had long since built up such magical laws and violet energy within himself . It swirled out to form a dazzling śarīra, which then entered the Wheel of Fate, causing intense rumbling sounds to echo out along with bright violet light . Within that light, the figures from the Tusita Heaven became clear .

‘Dear god . So many unique constitutions!’ Yang Qi’s eyes nearly popped out of his skull at the sight of the seventy-two individuals . ‘Are they even human? Well, they’re not the children of gods . That’s a Devouring One . A Resentful One . A Courageous One! They actually have a Courageous One!’

Courageous Ones were said to be the most daring and audacious cultivators that existed, and they always made rapid cultivation progress . They were always able to fight people above their own cultivation level, making them virtually invincible as fighters .

‘A Sagacious One? And that… that must be their leader . He has some of King Immortal-Slayer’s legacy medallions . Three of them . No wonder he was able to get inside the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart . They’re killing everyone! He must have a unique constitution as well . But which one? I've never seen anything like it before, but it seems on par with my constitution . Don’t tell me he’s an Eternal One . Or possibly a Fortuned One . ’

The entire group of young men were stronger than the Shattered God Proud Wing . They were clearly bent on destruction and were not holding anything back, destroying everything in their path .

Yang Qi could tell that he wouldn’t be a match for even one of this group .

And if all seventy-two of them joined forces, they could kill him millions of times over . It seemed apparent that they wanted to take control of the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart and exterminate any other living beings inside .

Initially, Yang Qi had been pleased at the thought of more of King Immortal-Slayer’s legacy medallions coming to him . But that pleasure had been short-lived . Each and every one of these newcomers could bring complete catastrophe to his growing immortal world, and there was nothing he could do about it . And that wasn’t to mention the fact that their leader would no doubt want to take his own legacy medallions .

The only advantage he might have was his God Legion Seal and his Blood of the One God . With them, he could suppress the aura of the legacy medallions and remain hidden from this new opponent .

‘This is terrifying . Seventy-two people from the Tusita Heaven, all of them with unique constitutions . Wait . Are they trying to model themselves after King Immortal-Slayer and his sworn brothers? I can see already that they have a lot of the treasures originally belonging to those seventy-two brothers . The Mourn-Parting Heaven-Palace . The Wilds-Horn God Armor . King Life-Killer’s swords . Imperial snakecharms . One of them actually has several hundred imperial snakecharms! That’s quite a collection . ’

The one with the imperial snakecharms was a Devouring One, just like the ancient King Heaven-Devourer . If Yang Qi could get him, he would get much closer to the point of having all three thousand talismans . After acquiring two thousand, he had come to find that acquiring more was very difficult . But each one he added provided a huge boost in strength .

Now more than ever, Yang Qi thirsted for more .

Collecting King Immortal-Slayer’s legacy medallions could lead to dangerous consequences, but there was nothing like that with King Heaven-Devourer’s talismans . Collecting more of them just gave one greater access to King Heaven-Devourer’s legacy .

‘It's too bad I'm not even close to being in a position to deal with these people . I need to keep out of their way for now, and think of a way to take advantage of them later . The Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart is so huge that it would take me decades to clear it out and search it . They’re getting closer and closer to me, though . Soon, they’re going to notice my immortal world . After all, it’s nearly at the tenth rank . Worst case scenario, I guess I can just seal it up and take it somewhere else . ’

He had originally assumed the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart would be the safest location, but then these fiends showed up and he realized he needed to change his plans .

He obviously needed to become a Godmyth before he could face this group .

‘The one with King Immortal-Slayer’s medallions seems like a Fortuned One . How can I manipulate a Fortuned One…?’
