Rise of Humanity
chapter-659

The Sword Master, Bell Master and the other masters were called as such because of the types of weapons they used respectively.

Apart from them, there were also other different masters such as the Palace Master, Banner Master and Weapon Master.

And once they were crowned with the title of master, it meant that at certain aspects, they had achieved something that no one could ever reach.

But there were also those who did not possess the title of a master. For example, those reborn emperors the likes of the Reverse Emperor and others like Zhen Yao.

Among them, some had incredibly strong backgrounds like Realm Lords or Concubine Han, and another few that achieved the Six Path Reincarnation. It was known that they were very strong, but no one had ever seen them in their full power.

Now, these Qi Practitioners had made their way into this realm after going through a series of challenges and they didn’t come alone, bringing along some Qi Practitioners that they recruited on their way here.

If they waged war against these people, the Sword Master did not have the confidence to beat them and neither did the other masters!

They were aware of each others’ capabilities and as the situation remained tensed, the Sword Master suddenly spoke, “Ladies and gentlemen, may I suggest that we share the profit of this world together? If you agree with me, I would like to request you to help me in sealing the crack dimension in the skies to prevent someone from entering this realm again. I would also like you to cooperate with me to eliminate the more formidable experts that have forced their way into this realm.”

They all exchanged a glance and quickly acted accordingly. After sealing the dimension, the Picture Master, who was a lady that carried a huge picture scroll behind her back, said, “With our combined power, even a reborn emperor would be slain by us if he dares to enter this realm.”

“That’s true,” agreed the other masters as they all smiled.

“By the way, you were here before all of us so have you noticed anyone we should be aware of?” The Book Master asked.

Hearing this, the Sword Master shook his head and said calmly, “What do you expect from such a low class realm? There are only living skeletons with low intelligence here. Ladies and gentlemen, let us split this realm into five sectors and we shall each take a sector for ourselves….”

Before he could even finish his words, he and the four other masters suddenly felt something, he looked towards somewhere far only to see a golden carriage flying towards them.

This carriage was luxuriously decorated and was surrounded by skeleton armies that carried banners with them.

Closely around the carriage was more than ten skeleton gods, each emitting a powerful godly presence, and they had skeleton dragons as their mount; behind them were an endless army of skeleton Qi Practitioners, all in the level of Imminent Deity and these skeletons mounted different looking skeleton warhorses and beasts.

“What an entrance!”

Under the crack in the sky and on the bridge, the masters were surprised by the entrance of the carriage while Lady Xiang Si burst out laughing, “Never thought I would run into something so interesting in such a puny realm.”

The Book Master shook his head and said, “The entrance of a king, don’t you think that it is really hilarious that someone in such a low realm behaves like this?”

As the carriage gotten closer, the masters saw a jade skeleton donned in blood red cape with a jade bone scepter in his hand sitting on the carriage. This skeleton had three eyes where his left and right eyes illuminated like the ghost sun and moon, making him looking extremely eerie.

On his forehead was another eye that was cloaked in divine power.

Upon his arrival, the skeletons waging war against these Qi Practitioners from the Prison Realm pulled back immediately, retreated to safety before they all kneel and bow before the jade skeleton.

Though they were incapable of speaking, the Sword Masters and the others could tell that the skeletons were cheering for the arrival of their king after they sensed happiness from the combined psyche of the countless skeleton Qi Practitioners.

“Skeleton King! Skeleton King! Skeleton King!”

“Skeleton King?”

The Bell Master lost his voice and he smirked, “That skeleton in red cape is their king? Ha! What a joke! That skeleton is really a fool of the fools!”

“But that scepter in his hands is probably something extraordinary,” said the Zither Master.

The Picture Master agreed with a nod while the Sword Master’s pupils shrank as soon as he saw the cape, “And that cape too. These should be an emperor-level treasure that could only be forged by the Deity Emperor!”

The Bell Master murmured, “Good god. Such a puny skeleton king actually has such precious items. I never thought I would run into such items in this realm… I wonder what exactly those items can do though.”

Emperor-level weapons were very rare even within the Prison Realm even with a few reborn emperor-level Qi Practitioners being present there. It was because before they were banished into the Prison Realm, their soul weapons would be taken away from them.

They could actually forge another one after being banished into the Prion Realm but it was not an easy task even for them.

And there were even some reborn emperor-level Qi Practitioners like the Reverse Emperor who had lost their soul weapon after they were killed by the others.

“A tiny skeleton king, what kind of background did he come from? It.. it feels like he is not even a god yet….”

On the bridge, the expression of masters were very interesting upon discovering the fact that a puny skeleton Qi Practitioner possessed two emperor-level divine weapons.

“Just how much of the emperor-level divine weapons can this fool utilize?” The giant Bell Master murmured.

“Not even ten percent!” The Sword Master answered coldly.

Right away, greed rose within the eyes of these masters as from their view, without being able to fully utilize the two emperor-level divine weapons, this skeleton king was just trying to bestow them with his emperor-level divine weapon but coming right at them like that.

Suddenly, the Zither Master said, “I could give up the portion of my share but I want that cape in exchange!”

The Bell Master added with a grin, “Same here, but I want that scepter!”

Meanwhile, on the carriage, Zhong Yue’s finger repeatedly taped onto his throne unconsciously as he looked at those Qi Practitioners excitedly.

The hole in the skies and the outer demons these skeletons were talking about must be them. If they are the Qi Practitioners of the Prison Realm, does that means that I can leave this place even without achieving the Six Path Reincarnation?

“My king! Look at them!”

One of the skeleton gods under his command said excitedly, “They even have clothes on! God! Oh my god! I’m going nuts! Our king only has a cape signifying his royal position bit these guys even have more than one piece of clothing on them!”

“They looked extremely awful,” murmured another skelton god, “I’ve never seen such an ugly existence in my life. Strange, how did they manage to differentiate males from females? Which of them is male and which of them is female?”

“They are not even as close to the handsome king of ours,” said another one.

Zhong Yue however, ignored them and all he did was stare at the crack in the skies.

He had been trapped in this realm for 72 years! Even though it meant nothing to Qi Practitioners, if he was an ordinary person, he would have been an old man now.

By now, he even felt that he was already ready to accept the fact that he is one of these skeletons after such a long time.

But now, how could he not be happy and excited when these people from the outer world entered this realm?”

“Dear senior martial brothers, may I ask where you are from?” Zhong Yue asked through psyche.

To the surprise of these masters, they laughed and said, “He actually called us senior martial brothers? But you wouldn't even know if we said that we came from the Prison Realm!”

Lady Xiang Si and Hong Dou exchanged glance and suddenly, they leapt into the air from the bridge and they charged towards the army of skeletons.

Right away, the ladies were met with countless skeleton Qi Practitioners that tried to stop them. Around Zhong Yue, the skeleton gods were also enraged and when they were about to attack, Zhong Yue stopped them from attacking.

Immediately, the skeletons had a shock and they knelt down without hesitation.

The scene was very impressive as countless skeletons knelt before their king in sync without making a noise at all, even with the ladies continuing to charge towards him!

“Today, we will seize you and your weapons as trophy for the Sword Master!” The two ladies proclaimed.

They both had strength that was no weaker than those skeleton gods!

But Zhong Yue did not flinch, sitting there without moving as he allowed the two ladies to draw ever so closer to him, and that was when he raised his palm.

Shua—-

He reached out toward them with lighting speed.

In an instant, dizziness struck the ladies and they were in extreme shock after they regained their consciousness and balance; they looked around and all they saw was that they were transferred to another world where the sun and moon hung in the skies at the same time and this world only had two colours — black and white.

In the middle of the world, there was only a skeleton with a human skull and the body of the serpent bone.

“We are in his hands now… No! We are in his inner core!”

The two ladies immediately figured out where they were now and they shouted, “You actually dreamt of trapping us? You low level imbecile! We will break your inner core now!”

As soon as they shouted, they flew into the air, attempted to break free but suddenly, immense pressure pressed onto them and slammed them back into the ground, caused them to suffer injuries that immobilize them right away.

Zhong Yue then looked at his palm and the two ladies lied there without strength to struggle anymore.

“Prison Realm… Hahaha….”

Zhong Yue opened his mouth, laughed without a voice as he slowly got up from the throne and there was only one message that the masters could decipher from his psyche, “I can finally go back! Finally!”

The endless skeletons had their heads lowered down all the time and donned with the red cape and the scepter in his hands, Zhong Yue slowly walked towards the rainbow bridge with the two ladies still trapped in his palm.
