Rise of Humanity
chapter-727

Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s eye sights were incredible, it was as if no secret could hide from his eyes; Zhong Yue even felt like he was shone on by the Fuxi Heavenly Monarch’s imperial sword.

As Realm Monarch Bo Luo stared at him, Zhong Yue’s mortal body and blood essence boiled vigorously. Just seconds before he lost control of suppressing his Fuxi Yuan Shen, he gritted his teeth and gathered his psyche, ramming on the innate divine blood in his psyche ocean!

Krong—

A wave of godly aura burst out from his psyche ocean endlessly as if there were a galaxy contained in his psyche ocean, and was now exploding into the world. At the drop of a hat, a grand and imperial aura beyond the mortal’s reach suppressed the whole scene!

The energy in the innate divine blood was triggered, and the illusion of a woman with a snake’s body appeared behind him. When she opened her eyes, all of the Realm Monarchs suddenly found themselves staring into a blank space white like snow and with tears rolling in their eyes—they were all blinded by the godly rays in her eyes!

Zhong Yue has triggered the energy in Goddess Shen Hou’s divine blood.

“Innate god!”

“There is really an innate god!”

The Realm Monarchs were stunned, their hearts pound in shock but their bodies acted immediately. They all stood up and bowed to greet Goddess Shen Hou’s illusion, even Realm Monarch Bo Luo who held a high prestige among the crowd was no exception to it.

Although innate gods were also divided into different levels, and were all born naturally with the power of the Deity Overlords or even Deity Emperors, the innate god behind Zhong Yue was definitely not a newborn innate god, but one who had been through and witnessed eons of vicissitudes.

It was just the illusion formed by the energy in her blood, yet it was powerful enough to infuse terror into the Realm Monarchs. If she had come herself, they couldn’t imagine just how terrifyingly strong she would be.

Zhong Yue was also stunned. He triggered the Huaxu divine blood to infuse the Huaxu blood into his bloodline and assimilate his mortal body and Yuan Shen into one of the Huaxu Clan’s!

If he could show himself as one of the eight sovereign races, the Huaxu Clan’s member, the Realm Monarchs would naturally let him off!

However, that comes with great risk. That was if he has been assimilated into a Huaxu, it was still a doubtful question if he would be able to recultivate his mortal body and Fuxi Yuan Shen.

But little did he expected that triggering the Huaxu innate godly blood would bring out Goddess Shen Hou’s illusion. It looks like the goddess was worried about his safety and thus left an illusion of herself hidden in the Huaxu divine blood that she gave him!

“Goddess Shen Hou…” Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief and finally eased his heart.

Behind him, Goddess Shen Hou’s illusion didn’t return the formality, instead she slightly nodded her head as a form of acknowledgment. Her voice sounded incredibly far, as if it came from an unspeakably far distance, “I am in the Zi Wei Imperial Star now, meeting with the incumbent Heavenly Monarch. I won’t stay long, and so, I want you to understand that I can’t come over personally.”

The Realm Monarchs were mind blown, the goddess was now in the Zi Wei Imperial Star, and was meeting with the current Heavenly Monarch?

And most importantly, she used the word ‘meeting’!

The word itself carried a small sense of a higher-level presence calling upon a lower-being for a talk. For the innate god to use such a word, does it mean that even the current Heavenly Monarch was situated at a lower position than her?

Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s face changed slightly, he bowed and said, “We dare not hold up the goddess any second longer, please excuse us and return as your will.”

Goddess Shen Hou’s illusion dispersed back into a ball of innate divine blood, and returned to Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean.

Realm Monarch Bo Luo heaved a long breath, when he looked at Zhong Yue again, the invasive feeling in his eyes was no more and he stopped trying to see through Zhong Yue’s secrets. He mulled for a second, and said, “I see, no wonder our little friend can leave from that place. I have frightened you, and for that, you shall be compensated. Men, bring a putuan ¹ for our little friend here to sit.”

Immediately, the royal officers brought a huge putuan and placed it beside Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue looked up and found the putuan presented was of the same size to those the Realm Monarchs sat on. But the Realm Monarchs were incredible figures with humongous size like the planets, naturally the putuans they sit on were huge as well in order to fit their body sizes.

And thus, even the putuan itself appeared to be extremely huge to Zhong Yue!

Zhong Yue recollected his thoughts, he flew toward the huge putuan and settled in the center. Even after his body swayed and enlarged into 10 thousand feet tall, he still remained not much bigger than before.

His body swayed again, enlarging himself into 100 thousand feet tall, but was still just tiny when compared to the humongous Realm Monarchs.

Enlarging into the 100 thousand feet tall mortal body was already his limit, left with no choice, Zhong Yue could only settled down. He glanced around only to find himself like a midget situated in the midst of giants.

However, the Realm Monarchs laughed and praised, “To be able to achieve such size, you are near to the Heavenly Deity level already.”

“Little friend, be at ease. Just sit normally as the sizes don’t matter at all.”

“So young and yet so talented, you’ve placed considerable pressure on the candidates of my Huo Shan Six Paths World. Realm Monarch Yunshan, you’ve found a good seedling. Seems like your Wei Shen Six Paths World will not be the last for much longer.”

“You flatter me, my fellow Daoist.”

…

Zhong Yue eased himself. The putuan was so huge and prompted him to enlarge himself in order to fit its size. However, he didn’t do so to prove anything or please the Realm Monarchs, but to test out the depths of his own strength.

Furthermore, if he didn’t show his power to satisfy the Realm Monarchs’ curiosity, they might just probe him in some other way that can potentially leave him exposed to extra risk.

Thus, it would be wiser for him to reveal some of his true capabilities to avoid unnecessary troubles.

But at the same time, his actions have led to Realm Monarch Yunshan’s dissatisfactions as the Realm Monarch didn’t want him to expose his power so soon before the competitions. After all, once Zhong Yue’s power was made known, the many Realm Monarchs here would surely instruct their candidates to be aware of him; thus, taking away the element of surprise.

However, as the innate god backing Zhong Yue was revealed and heavily suppressed the Realm Monarchs, even Realm Monarch Yunshan couldn’t simply vent his anger on Zhong Yue anymore.

Realm Monarch Bo Luo looked at Zhong Yue again, but this time, he was like an amiable elder as he said, “Granting you a seat among us, doesn’t mean you are qualified yet to sit as one of us. This is just a compensation to the disturbance we’ve brought to the goddess who supported you, the frightenings we’ve caused moments ago, and the taking away my scale that was previously in your hands.”

Zhong Yue nodded and thanked, “Thank you, Realm Monarch.”

But to his shock, he only heard his voice lingering around him, it couldn’t even transmit out of the putuan.

My voice couldn’t even transmit out of the putuan, the disparity of power between mine and the Realm Monarchs are like the heavens and earth!

The hall was unspeakably huge, the Realm Monarchs and putuans were huge like planets. The distance between them was billions of feet away from one another. It looked close because the Realm Monarchs were huge.

It was not an issue to the strong and powerful Realm Monarchs, their voice no longer transmits but it resonants with space around and reaches to the others directly. But although a prominent Qi Practitioner, Zhong Yue’s power couldn’t even send his voice out of the putuan.

“Furthermore, fate somewhat brought you and me together.” Realm Monarch Bo Luo continued, “You knew nothing about it before, but the reason why I left you with one of my scales instead of collecting it back was that I appreciate you as a talent, especially when you visualize me.”

Zhong Yue was puzzled, since when did he visualize Realm Monarch Bo Luo?

Realm Monarch Yunshan laughed, “What are you waiting for? Quickly thank Realm Monarch Bo Luo!”

Realm Monarch Bo Luo laughed as well, he didn’t explain further and said instead, “No need for that. He is still weak, even when he speaks, he couldn’t bring his voice to our senses. Just sit and listen quietly, it depends on yourself how much you can gain.”

Zhong Yue nodded, he spaced out the myriad thoughts in his mind and calmed his heart, while he listened carefully at the Realm Monarchs’ discussions.

The Realm Monarchs first started with little talks of catching up with one another, and shortly started exchanging their views and attainments in the path of cultivation and the discussions soon turned intense.

Seconds into listening to the Realm Monarchs, Zhong Yue was stunned greatly. Their attainments and point of views were extremely unique and abstruse. Sometimes when words turned insufficient to depict their meanings, they would even cast the techniques on the spot.

The discussions of the Realm Monarchs were no longer just about the arts and techniques but correlated deeply to the many Dao in the universe. Some were even unknown to Zhong Yue, and he was forced to fully focus on memorizing and understanding their words!

Not only that, the Realm Monarchs even started talking about the profundity of the Dao they have each attained. The direct explanation to the different Dao exceeded Zhong Yue’s limit and he quickly grew another few more heads to aid him in understanding the abstrusities.

The Yin Yang Lines drowned him within, helping him accelerate his attainments but often times before he could grasp anything much from the previous thoughts, the Realm Monarchs would’ve brought out another point of view again.

Although he could barely follow up their thoughts, the benefits it brought were unimaginable. His cultivation was skyrocketing, his attainments were escalating rapidly, and his foundation grew much sturdier than he could imagine!

If one thought about it, what kind of fortune could be on par with the opportunity of listening to 3,000 Realm Monarchs exchanging their thoughts together?

As when Zhong Yue was madly trying to catch up to the Realm Monarchs, Heavenly King Fu led Heavenly King Shang and Shi Yinji to the outside of the Heavenly Cloud Violet Golden Pavilion. They looked over and found at the side of the walls, there were many Deity Emperors eavesdropping behind the walls, and some were even peeking into the hall.

Shi Yinji frowned, these Deity Emperors had occupied every single available spot, there was no place for them to fit in anymore.

To that, Heavenly King Fu laughed, “Don’t worry, I’ve already reserved a good spot for us. Brother Shang, princess, this way, please. This is the best spot in town, just right beside the doors. Not only that we can clearly hear the Realm Monarchs’ discussions, but we can even look into the hall and witness the marvelous skills. As long as we don’t stare at the Realm Monarchs, they wouldn’t care at all.”

Heavenly King Shang praised, “Brother Fu is really amazing, you even secured such a good spot!”

Heavenly King Fu lamented in return, “Brother Shang, you only saw me being able to reserve this place for us, but little did you know how many treasures I’ve given out to make it happen!”

Heavenly King Shang immediately understood him and laughed back, “Brother Fu, don’t worry, I will surely repay your good deeds!”

The three squeezed to the side of the doors and sure enough, they could hear the Realm Monarchs clearer than the others. They then peeked into the hall and was dazed by the marvelous skills cast out by the Realm Monarchs.

“Just listening to them talking would be worth everything we have ever achieved… Wait, the one sitting on that putuan looks familiar…”

Heavenly King Shang, Heavenly King Fu, and Shi Yinji stared blankly at one of the putuans in the hall. There, it sat a young human boy who wasn’t even a god yet still able to sit on the same level as the Realm Monarchs.

“How is he here?” Shi Yinji exclaimed in shock.

Whereas Heavenly King Shang was dawned, “No wonder I didn’t see him following us. He has his own ways to enter the hall and sit together with the Realm Monarchs. That’s way better than us eavesdropping behind the doors.”

Meanwhile Heavenly King Fu regretted greatly for looking down on Zhong Yue before this, he thought to himself, No matter what now, I will deliver my daughter to his room tonight, and I might just be able to gain his forgiveness !
