Rise of Humanity
chapter-646

After burning the copy away, Emerald Heaven Dharma King thought, Whenever Qi Practitioners got to know their fate, they would often try to change it. Although the majority of them end up badly, some still succeed. A few of them once changed their fate, which resulted in catastrophic events. But there were also some that achieved something no one could ever dream off. One among them is now sitting at a position so high up that I can’t even chase after his tail. I must not let these few brats see the contents in the copy lest history repeats itself.

Attempts to change one’s own fate did not only happen in the Prison Realm but in the other realms too.

And among those who changed their fate, there was this one from the Prison Realm that caused the most upheaval; after cultivating into a god, he bribed the judges in Hell so that he could take a look at his fate in the Book of Life and Death. He then came to learn of his rather unfortunate fate — that he would die a sudden death.

However, this god was very amazing too. He kept this in his mind, always reminding himself of his terrible fate, and because of that, he was very cautious.This allowed him to escape from one event that could have potentially killed him. As time passed and as he continued to elude death, he had risen to an unfathomable level.

Soon, the Hell Emperor noticed this, and along with his eighteen judges and the Soul Reaping Bell, they went after this god.

As they battled, the heavens trembled and the earth shattered; that god heavily injured the Hell Emperor, captured the eighteen judges. This god’s fame continue to snowball, and eventually, under the lead of the four great Heaven generals, armadas from Heaven were sent to bring him in. But they too were defeated and captured by this god.

In the end, the furious Realm Monarch ordered the Six Path World’s six great Realm Lords to seize him and only with that was this god defeated.

After his defeat, just when he was going to meet his end just like his fate dictated, orders from the Realm Monarch came; the monarch wanted to recruit this god into Heaven and allowed him to leave the Prison Realm. As such, this god survived once again, and after joining Heaven’s forces, his position was only lower than the monarch’s himself.

Years later, when the Realm Monarch stepped down due to age, he passed his seat to this god.

Thus, this god ascended as the new Realm Monarch, and his name was Wei Shen.

As someone who had lived for such a long time, of course Emerald Heaven Dharma King had heard of the legendary story of this Realm Monarch, which resulted her in being very unwilling to let Zhong Yue and the others know about their miserable fates. She surreptitiously glanced at the servant that followed her order into Hell to check the book and she figured, I’m sorry but I had to put you down. I must not let anyone other than me to know about this.

She had secretly sentenced this servant to death, but her face still had the same smile as if nothing had changed.

On the other side, Zhong Yue and his companions felt even more relaxed upon seeing the copy burnt into ashes; now, all that was left was awaiting for the return of the servant that went to investigate in Cold Spirit Star.

And if she no longer suspected them, then things would be even easier at the side of the Realm Monarch.

The monarch would definitely dwell into the origin and identities of Zhong Yue and his friends; he would only go into this when he suspected something but of course, if Emerald Heaven Dharma King said that there were no problems about them, then the monarch would definitely not waste his time on such petty matters.

“The major competition will be held at the Empty Prison Heavenly Planet of our Prison Realm in a month time.”

No longer paying anymore attention to Zhong Yue, Emerald Heaven Dharma King looked around and said gradually, “The Empty Prison Heavenly Planet is the sacred ground where the Realm Lord of Prison Realm lived. Upon reaching there, you will be met with the most outstanding young Qi Practitioners from different galaxies of the Prison Realm. At that time, whether or not we Left Fang Galaxy will be able to outperform everyone and represent the Prion Realm to duel with the other five realms will depend on everyone present here. Now, anymore questions?”

With a shook, Li Tianxing and the others expressed that they had no more questions.

Suddenly, Bai Canghai said hurriedly, “Can I not take part in this battle?”

Emerald Heaven Dharma King glanced at him and suddenly, she felt disgusted and she rejected, “No, talented individuals like you have to take part. My little friend, the Realm Lord gave us ten slots and if I only brought nine, I’d be shaming our Realm Lord. No matter how unwilling you are, you still have to participate!”

Quietly, Bai Canghai was deeply troubled; though his cultivation level had experienced quite a leap during this short period of time, he was still far weaker than the likes of Zhong Yue and the others; he would be killed easily if he took part in the battle.

And no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Emerald Heaven Dharma King was asking him to voluntarily die.

He thought, Brother Zhong could lead us and triumph over the battle in Left Fang Galaxy but he probably can’t lead us out of the major competition. I might lose my life there!

Emerald Heaven Dharma King continued saying with a smilingly, “Don’t worry, I took a look at your fate written in the book just now. It says that your fate is extremely good and you wouldn't die for sure.”

“If that book is so good, then your son wouldn't have been killed by Brother Zhong.” Bai Canghai murmured softly.

The face of Emerald Heaven Dharma King darkened immediately and it took quite an effort to restrain herself from killing this little brat but she thought, This brat has always been like that, if I kill him, people who think of me as petty and narrow-minded.

However, whatever Bai Canghai said was true; the book might be able to decide one’s fate, but there are also some incapabilities in the book. For example, an unexpected accident could easily affect the fate decided by the book.

Initially, Prince Shi Yun would not die an unexpected death according to the book but because of Zhong Yue’s arrival — something that was not recorded in the book — he was cut down by Zhong Yue in one strike.

And this was something the book did not include.

Apart from that, the saying of a disaster in one’s life was not very clear as well; if it was written that an unfortunate event would descend upon someone someday, there would be two possibilities in the end, that person might survive or they might die. There was no fixed outcome.

Thus, one should not be too worried after getting to know his fate written on the book because there would still be changes.

Suddenly, a demon god pointed at Zhong Yue and said coldly, “My king, if this human failed to fight into the top ten, can I kill him?”

With a smile, Emerald Heaven Dharma King asked, “Why so?”

“He killed my beloved student! With the protection of the Realm Lord, I can’t even harm a single strand of his hair.”

The demon god then continued, “But if he fails, then he will no longer be protected by the Realm Lord and by then, can I kill him to avenge my student?”

Another demon god stood up and said angrily, “My dearest son was killed by him, I must have my revenge!:

“My wife!”

“My grandchild!”

“My daughter!”

One after another demon gods stood up, voiced out their anger and they looked at Zhong Yue in a way that as if they wanted to kill him on the spot.

Zhong Yue however, did not even flinch and he remained calm as he looked at everyone.

Emerald Heaven Dharma King looked around as well and with a smile, she said, “Excuse me for rejecting your requests.”

The many demon gods stuttered and before they made noise again, Emerald Heaven Dharma King sighed and said, “My son was also killed by him, how can I let you taste your revenge first before me? I guarantee everyone here that if he fails and is still alive, I will let everyone exact their vengeance after me.”

She said, “With my capabilities, I can revive him after he is dead. Hence, I promise that all of you will get satisfaction!”

The way she spoke was filled with hatred and anger, a testament to just how much she despised Zhong Yue.

To her dismay, Zhong Yue replied, “Don’t worry, my king. You won’t have the chance.”

Upon hearing this, Emerald Heaven Dharma King smirked and thought, You won’t be so confident if you saw your fate in the book!

Emerald Heaven Dharma King after all, did not know that Zhong Yue had singlehandedly altered the Book of Life and Death, and if she had knew about this, she definitely wouldn’t have the same confidence.

After a few more days, when the demon god servant headed to Cold Spirit Planet returned and confirmed the identity of Zhong Yue and the others, Emerald Heaven Dharma King announced the time of departure, and they all headed straight to Empty Prison Heavenly Planet.

They all traveled on a luxurious ship pulled by eight dragons; they sailed across space, passing various teleportation arrays as they get everso closer to Empty Prison Heavenly Planet.

After about twenty days, they could finally see Empty Prison Heavenly Planet from far away.

Zhong Yue stood at the deck of the ship, looked at the Empty Prison Heavenly Planet and realized that it was located at the centre of the Prison Realm Galaxy. Empty Prison Heavenly Planet was surrounded by massive black holes and at the outer rim of the black holes were bright divine rays that shone brighter than the sun. While the black holes devoured stars one after another in the galaxy, this star remained untouched, as if protected by some kind of power.

Although it was called Heavenly Planet, the Empty Prison Heavenly Planet did not look like one. Instead, it looked like a massive star that floated in the centre of the galaxy and it looked really ancient.

This huge star was much bigger than ordinary stars; it was so huge that even the sun had to circle around it, and there were more than just a sun and a moon that orbited around it.

But whatever went against the natural law could always be explained by the power of gods.

As time passed, they arrived at the Empty Prison Heavenly Planet, and when it sailed into this star, Zhong Yue was shocked at what he saw. There were mountain gods protecting the mountains, river gods living in the rivers, and every other place had their respective gods living in them!

There were so many gods living here; the number was far beyond their expectation!

But it was actually pretty normal. This is the place where the ruler of the Prison Realm lived. The gods from other galaxies in the Prison Realm strived to be able to live here, and they viewed this as an honor, thus, making the high number of gods residing here quite understandable.

Other than that, Zhong Yue noticed that most of the gods here came from the celestial and demon race; most of the gods were from the demon races with very pure bloodlines, and with so many living creatures here, there would of course be a huge number of gods.

This Six Path World was the weakest among the three thousand Six Path Worlds and even so, they had such terrifying power.

Zhong Yue sighed at the fact that it was already extremely difficult for the Fuxi Celestial Race to rise again.

The ship then sailed into a place filled with marvelous and heavily guarded in Empty Prison Heavenly Planet and into a courtyard.

This courtyard was the place where the Realm Lord handled the affairs of his ruling.

Far away, there were also many ships that emitted crazily strong aura sailing towards the same courtyard.

On these ships stood the most talented Qi Practitioners from the different galaxies within the Prison Realm.

Jun Sixie who stood at the side of Zhong Yue stared at these ships and she couldn't help but to murmur, “Finally, I can compete with the strongest Qi Practitioners in the Prison Realm. I wonder what kind of talented Qi Practitioners I will run into.”

“Don’t worry.”

Zhong Yue included all of these ships in his vision and he said calmly, “I will hack them all to death.”
