Rise of Humanity
chapter-1063

Xin Huo replied, “Someone who received massive worship like this is hard to kill unless the Heavenly Monarch strips him off from his duty and cuts him off from the worship.”

“Heavenly Monarch’s order? Impossible, I am not the Heavenly Monarch now, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian isn’t either, so we can’t kill him at the moment. Ghost Master is indeed Ghost Master, never thought that we wouldn’t be able to kill him even in such a situation.”

Zhong Yue’s heart thumped suddenly and he took the Drum of Dusk out, Can [Daoless Heavens] kill him then?

“With the endless soul worshipping me, I am unkillable!”

Gui Youmin looked towards Zhong Yue and smirked, “No matter what technique you use, what item you have, you can’t kill me! Once you disperse your Hell’s Reincarnation, I will be free. This bone bowl won’t hold me for long!”

Zhong Yue slammed onto the drum and the others around him backed off quickly except for Yi Wanjun who managed to learn [Daoless Heavens].

Zhong Yue continued slamming the drum, unleashing [Daoless Heavens] time and time again, showing its might!

He then raised his innate divine saber and swiftly beheaded Gui Youmi and his Yuan Shen. The lifeless body fell onto the ground and his head rolled, the smirk fixed on his face.

Everyone looked into the bowl, where Gui Youmin’s head and headless body lay at the bottom showing no sign of revival.

“Boy oh boy, he sure was a tough nut to crack!”

Hundun Yu breathed out a relieved breath and said, “Even the second Yuan Shen cultivated from Innate Celestial Monarch couldn’t kill him, he is really impressive!”

Shi Yinji poured the body out of the bowl and Yi Wanjun praised, “He is really terrifying, unkillable and undefeatable, but he still can’t withstand the Drum of Dusk or the deal between Mister Mo and Darling Zhong would be exposed.”

Yin Fanxuan and Jin Hexi, on the other hand, surrounded the Drum of Dusk and were amazed by its power. Jin Hexi praised, “If we use it in the battle, we will be able to stomp over the enemies like ants! Darling, where did you find such a powerful item?”

Zhong Yue, however, did not feel good about it. The frown on his face deepened and he refrained from kicking the drum away!

The unkillable Gui Youmin did not even last for a second before [Daoless Heavens], even the horrendous worshipping power was muted by [Daoless Heavens], allowing Zhong Yue to kill Gui Youmin!

[Daoless Heavens] was unsolvable in every way!

Even the body part of Innate Evil Monarch, Innate Demon Monarch, Innate Celestial Monarch, Feng Tian Origin Lord, and Yuan Ya Deity King, these existences who were infinitely close to becoming Dao Gods couldn’t harm Gui Youmin at all. This directly showed just how powerful Gui Youmin’s worshipping power was!

But he still died like he was nothing against the Drum of Dusk, and this unsettled Zhong Yue greatly.

The Drum of Dusk he obtained was not the real Drum of Dusk, but just a replica. If even the replica was that powerful, then how powerful was the real one?

And just how terrifying was the one that created Drum of Dusk?

The young Lei Zhe even told him that Zhong Yue would run into the one that created the [Daoless Heavens] in the future. Just thinking about this alone caused Zhong Yue to shiver.

Right until now, he found no way that could counter [Daoless Heavens]; he was entirely clueless!

The more he learned about the [Daoless Heavens], the more terrifying he found it!

He took in a deep breath and dispersed the Great Six Paths Reincarnation after Gui Youmin and his men were all killed. Not a single one remained, and on the outside, the army led by Mo Yin became even more steady. The two sides continued the battle and the skies were dyed red by the war.

Is Mo Yin trying to take us down in one go?

Zhong Yue slightly frowned and he raised Gui Youmin’s head.

He shouted, “Gui Youmin is dead!”

To him, Mo Yin was a friend but also a foe; they may have reached an agreement to remove Gui Youmin from the game, but if Mo Yin found a chance to kill Zhong Yue, the man would not hesitate.

Zhong Yue’s voice echoed across the battleground, but in the sea of battle cries, shrieks, weapon clashes and the rumbling Dao voices from the monarch weapons, it was unable to reach everyone.

However, the noise decreased significantly over time as the soldiers stopped fighting and the weapons stop rumbling.

Countless pairs of eyes looked towards the fortress, where Gui Youmin’s head hung high on the walls. That was the head of commander of the Heaven Court and the Heaven Court’s Left Prime Minister.

“Mister Mo, retreat at once!”

Lou Zhengshi rushed towards Mo Yin and nervously urged him, “Let’s not delay anymore, your order, please!”

He knew how important a commander was to an army, a commander was the pillar of the generals and soldiers. Once the pillar was toppled, the army’s morale would plunge while the enemies would rise. The death of Gui Youmin was definitely disastrous to the Heaven Court, and this could easily lead to the army crumbling.

Not to mention that apart from being the commander, Gui Youmin was also the strategist for the Heavenly Monarch. The Heaven Court’s Left Prime Minister was showered with honor and glory!

Most importantly, if the commander was killed, orders would not be given out, and without proper orders, the efficacy of the army as a unit would be severely compromised. If a defeat happened at such a time, they would definitely be swallowed by the enemy!

“Mister Mo! Your order!” shouted the other generals at once.

Mo Yin shouted furiously, “Left Prime Minister! You are really foolish! You’ve foiled the greatest opportunity we had to take over the fortress! The Heavenly Suppression Fortress’ luck is at its lowest point right now but your death returned their luck back to them!”

Lou Zhengshi and the others assisted their soldiers in retreating, blocking off the fortress’ pursuers. Corpses and blood splattered everywhere in the frenzy.

“Bring out Old Man Xuan and Qi’s weapons!”

With an order, the weapons forged by Old Man Xuan and Qi were distributed to the generals while Zhong Yue sat in the command center as his men slaughtered the enemy generals with the weapons.

Mo Yin quickly reorganized the soldiers, took over control and used the monarch weapons to strike down the approaching enemies yielding Old Man Xuan and Qi’s weapons. However, in the chaotic situation, they were hard to locate; more than 30 Deity Emperors and Creators had lost their lives in this battle on Zhong Yue’s side. But there were more than 600 of them who died on Mo Yin’s side!

Lou Zhengshi, Pan Ji and the others were also ambushed by Yin Bokang, Long Zhi and the rest, almost losing their lives, but they managed to escape after giving everything they had.

“No… no!”

Mo Yin’s face turned pale upon the inevitable defeat, his army retreated as quickly as they could, but Zhong Yue’s army was chasing right behind them closely, not even giving them a chance to catch their breath!

Throughout the retreat, Heaven Court’s army was crippled heavily, they lost more than 40 percent of their men but the Heavenly Suppression Fortress showed no sign of stopping.

“Tian Hou Royal Race is at the front!”

Lou Zhengshi’s spirit suddenly raised after he looked far away, “Tian Hou Royal Race’s strength is only a little weaker than an imperial race and they also had one of the greater celestial races in the Heaven Court. Lord Tian’s daughter is married to His Majesty and the Tian Hou Royal Race’ have more than 20 celestial races under them. They are powerful and rich with resources right now. Lord Tian himself is also a peak Imperial Emperor, with his help, we will be able to hold the fortress’ attack regroup in their territory!”

Mo Yin, however, held a different opinion, “I’m afraid Lord Tian won’t be able to stop Heavenly Suppression Fortress’s army either.”

He was a little frustrated right now, King Yi did not keep his word! Our deal was if he killed Gui Youmin for me, I will return the fortress’ fate to him. But when Gui Youmin died, he took the chance to gain the upper hand against us! But come to think of it, I can’t blame him because I was planning to take the fortress down in one shot as well….

The two of them had been exchanging messages secretly and he used the altar to communicate with Zhong Yue; when he held the ritual, he would use the totem patterns to create words that would definitely be noticed by Zhong Yue. On the first day, the word he wrote was “Kill” and in the next few days, he would complete his sentence without anyone knowing, forming the sentence “Kill Gui Youmin together.”

He knew Zhong Yue would be paying close attention to his movements, hence, he used the altar to pass the message and just as he expected, Zhong Yue transmitted messages back to him through Old Man Xuan and Qi’s [Demonic Chant of Reincarnation], accepted his deal and started planning to kill Gui Youmin. And just as Zhong Yue thought, Mo Yin was planning to take down the fortress when Gui Youmin died but he did not expect Gui Youmin to be killed in such a short time, killing him before Mo Yin could get even close to the fortress.

This defeat had also weakened the Heaven Court’s fate as well and it was definitely impossible to find a way to raise their fate in the midst of chaos, allowing the fortress’ soldiers to plunge on them like hungry tigers.

Lou Zhengshi frowned, “Mister, if we insisted on running, we would not only lose our resources and also drop our morale deeply. If this keeps up, we will all be gone in a matter of time!’

Mo Yin clenched his fist and said, “Ok, to the Tian Hou Royal Race’!”

At the Tian Hou Royal Race, Lord Tian waited at the main gate with his men. He welcomed the Heaven Court’s army into the sacred ground. Tian Hou Royal Race clan members were all six eared and eight-armed celestial apes, they were all extremely muscular. While they did not give birth to a monarch, the Tian Hou Royal Race was extremely thirsty for battle and strength.

Lord Tian, who was the Heavenly Monarch’s father-in-law laughed, “Mister Mo, Senior Martial Brother Lou, worry not and take some rest in my land while you enjoy the view of my children fighting!”

Suddenly, smithing sounds could be heard and Mo Yin’s expression changed, “They’re here!”

Lord Tian smiled, “Wait for us, my men and I will fend them off and return shortly!”

“You mustn’t!”

Mo Yin, Lou Zhengshi and the others halted him, “Many talented ones with strange abilities serve under King Yi! You just have to defend us while we catch our breath. After that, we will launch an all-out attack!”

Lord Tian hesitated and said, “Fine, I will go take a look at King Yi’s army then.”

He got onto the walls and after some time and to Mo Yin and the rest’s surprise, the smithing sound stopped and they knew things were bad right away.

The Imperial Emperors and Mo Yin quickly charged out and they saw the endless army from the fortress, covering the entire horizon and they were all well prepared.

In the center, Imperial Emperor Fu Li, who was larger than a planet, bared his top, exposing his muscles as he drew a steel arrow on a steel bow!

“Lord Tian, run quickly!”

Everyone shouted but before their words reached Lord Tian, the man’s head exploded and his corpse fell down from the walls.

Their expression was terrible, but the enemies did not give them the chance to react as after Imperial Emperor Fu Li killed Lord Tian, Zhong Yue pointed at Tian Hou Royal Race and his chilling voice echoed out, “Level the entire Tian Hou Royal Race!”
