Rise of Humanity
chapter-760

Zhong Yue calmed himself down, he examined the Eighteen Emperors of the Heavenly Cloud’s petrified eyes. Totem patterns surged out of his body as he ran the divinatory calculation technique on Queen Shi Ji’s seals.

Queen Shi Ji was a Creator herself, gifted with talent and a vast array of knowledge. The seals she planted in the 18 emperors’ eyes were each unique. Not only just their flesh eyes, but even their Yuan Shen’s eyes were sealed as well.

Thus, in order for one to break them, he must have the attainments on par with the Creators and enough strength to do so.

In terms of attainments, Zhong Yue had spent 30 billion years attaining an Imperial Emperor’s innate Qi as well as Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan’s Dao of Six Paths Reincarnation. His attainments were already far beyond the levels of the Creators.

However, even though his attainments were sufficient, his strength fell far short of the mark to break Queen Shi Ji’s seals. He was not a god yet and if he forcefully tried to break the seals, the impact force would inflict considerable injuries onto his body.

But I can take advantage of external forces. Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes as he thought. This time, he didn’t ask for Xin Huo’s help although he knew the little flame would be able to easily break the seals.

Zhong Yue found a way to prevent himself from getting injured by the impact force of breaking the skills—that was to use them instead!

The totem patterns in the petrified eyes were in the level of a Creator. At usual times, these totem patterns were tranquil as a pool of still water, but when the seals were triggered, they would unleash immeasurable power!

However, if he could topple the balance within the totem patterns and use the powers of the seals against themselves, then he wouldn’t need to worry about injuring himself!

Back then, his attainments weren’t sufficient for him to do so; but now, he had enough insights to execute this bold idea!

“Heavenly King Lu, I am still rather inexperienced, it still remains an uncertainty if I am able to succeed in one go. You are the strongest among all and so you will go first.” Zhong Yue said, “If anything ever goes wrong, your stronger cultivation and greater experience will make you the best candidate to resist the countereffects.”

Heavenly King Lu was almost at the level of a Creator, he was the strongest of the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud. Upon hearing Zhong Yue’s explanation, he answered solemnly, “Please do it.”

Zhong Yue’s psyche rumbled, forming into countless totem patterns that surged into Heavenly King Lu’s body through his severed arm. The eyes were after all the weakest point of one’s body; thus, Zhong Yue decided to experiment on the severed limbs first.

The totem patterns contained little to no energy in them, but when they entered Heavenly King Lu’s severed arm, a series of vigorous chain reactions occured like a cup of cold water pouring into a wok of boiling oil; Quen Shi Ji’s seals were incinerated in an instant!

Heavenly King Lu muffled a deep groan of pain, he felt the seals in his severed arm bursting in power, clashing with the totem patterns and tearing his arm into pieces from within.

Blood immediately painted his arm red, while Heavenly King Lu held the pain to himself and prompted in a hoarse voice, “King Geng, it is too aggressive.”

The totem patterns clashed without rest, mutually destroyoing one another. Sometime later, Queen Shi Ji’s Creator totem patterns were all gone.

Heavenly King Lu was filled with joy and surprise as he watched a new arm growing back in its place. He said, “Effective it sure is, especially to the severed limbs, but at the same time it is also too aggressive to be applied on the seals of the Yuan Shen and eyes, it will bring certain degree of danger to the brother and sisters.”

The eyes were close to the brain, the Yuan Shen was even more important. If Queen Shi Ji’s totem patterns were to unleash their power too violently in places like these, their brains would be fried and their Yuan Shen would be gravely wounded.

And that would bring life and death danger to them.

Zhong Yue nodded, the Yin and Yang lines surged and intertwined, and the mystic symbols changed incessantly as he continued to perfect the seal-breaking technique.

After a long time, countless totem patterns flowed out from his body and surged into Heavenly King Lu’s other severed arm.

“This is much better.” Heavenly King Lu withstood the pain, he commented, “But it still poses some danger to the Yuan Shen.”

Zhong Yue continued revising his technique again and again before moving to experiment on Heavenly King Lu’s severed leg. This time, it was better, faster, cleaner, and safer.

After Heavenly King Lu’s other severed leg had recovered, Heavenly King Lu nodded and said, “King Geng is truly magnificent. It is now safe to be used on the eyes and Yuan Shen. Although the totem patterns will still bring some damage, Qian Shan, Bi Er, and the others will be able to withstand them.”

Zhong Yue immediately broke the seals on Heavenly King Lu’s petrified eyes, while the other emperors remainedquiet despite the immense excitement filling their hearts.

Meanwhile, in the Heaven Court of the Wei Shen Six Paths World, Queen Shi Ji’s heart skiped a beat, her face changed dramaticaly and she stood up, “You Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud are indeed strong, you’ve managed to break my seals! But then you’d be all thinking too much if you try to run away from me!”

At almost the same time, the teleportation formation in the Heaven Court was activated, a Heavenly King rushed out from the teleportal and shouted, “Heavenly King Shou of the Bo Luo Six Paths World bring words from His Majesty for Realm Monarch Yunshan!”

Realm Monarch Yunshan immediately invited Heavenly King Lu into the palace and said, “Senior Martial Brother Shou, what brings you here all of a sudden in a hurry?”

Heavenly King Shou then took out Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s letter and said, “Things have gotten worse, Zhong Yue of the Fuxi Clan has escaped and Realm Monarch Bo Luo ordered me to pass the words to Your Majesty.”

“Zhong Yue has escaped?” Realm Monarch Yunshan’s face changed drastically, he took over the letter rapidly in shock, “How did he? Wasn’t he imprisoned in the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror?”

“It is a shame to say this, but the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror is now in the Fuxi’s hands.” Heavenly King Shou hesitated, he didn’t point out the fact that even Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s treasure vault was also plundered by Zhong Yue. After all, if that fact were to become known to the public, Realm Monarch Bo Luo would lose an incredible amount of face.

Then, the Heavenly King continued, “The Fuxi rebels launched an ambush and kept the Heaven Court busy in dealing with them; if it wasn’t for them, the Fuxi would never have been able to escape. The rebels have since then taken Zhong Yue away.”

Realm Monarch read the letter and nodded, “I see. Realm Monarch Bo Luo wants me to have the Heaven Realm prevent Zhong Yue from returning. Head back and tell Realm Monarch Bo Luo, if Zhong Yue ever dares to come back, he’ll never be able to leave anymore!”

Heavenly King Shou left subsequently.

Then, Realm Monarch Yunshan immediately ordered Heavenly King Lu to bring the men over to Heaven Realm and stay full vigilant to prevent Zhong Yue from coming back. Other than that, Heavenly King Shang was also ordered to stay into Court Yue to wait for Zhong Yue to fall into their traps.

Suddenly, a general came in and reported, “My Majesty, Queen Shi Ji was here for you, but left soon after seeing My Majesty occupied by governing affairs.”

Realm Monarch Yunshan, however, didn’t take it to heart and said, “The Fuxi Clan’s Zhong Yue is let free in the wild and she has the mood to stroll around carelessly? Doesn’t she know how to share and lighten the burdens on my shoulders?”

“Queen Shi Ji is here!” Just after Zhong Yue healed Heavenly King Lu’s petrified eyes back to the flesh and blood eyes, and the severed limbs back in place; a bright ray flashed across Heavenly King Lu’s eyes and he looked afar, saying solemnly, “Her speed is incredible! King Zhong, Queen Shi Ji is here in great force and power, a battle is bound to happen. What will you do?”

Zhong Yue was bewildered, he asked, “She is she, and I am me. Why do you ask me what will I do?”

Heavenly King Lu laughed, “You and her beloved daughter, you two lovely birds have been sticking together in the Heaven Realm, that’s nothing to deny at all.”

Demon Empress Bi Er chuckled, “We aren’t blind, do you think you can hide from us? Ever since the Lei Zhe Galaxy, you two have been spending some sweet and productive days together.”

The other sixteen blind men nodded simultaneously with a tacit smile on their faces.

Zhong Yue gave a cold sneer, he thought, Seems like I need to keep a lower profile the next time I do something like this. First, seal Xin Huo’s senses on the outside world, then seal the room to prevent them from peeking and eavesdropping.

Then, his psyche pulsed out vibrantly with the totem patterns surging into the eyes of the other 17 emperors—he was planning to break the seals of their petrified eyes together!

At the same time, a terrific aura was drawing closer to them at a tremendous speed. Zhong Yue saw at the corner of his eye that a ball of light was flashing across the sky, lighting up the surroundings like jade!

Even the flowing waters have condensed into a jade-like paste and hardening soon after; even the space around was also frozen!

He couldn’t waste a second longer and went all out in breaking the seals of the 17 emperors’ petrified eyes and their Yuan Shen.

Whereas on the other hand, Heavenly King Lu tensed every strand of his muscles, he bolted up into the sky in a flash of red light. His voiced rumbled like thunder as he rushed head-on toward Queen Shi Ji with a dominating aura, “I will buy you as much time as I can! Leave at once and if I can make it back alive, I will catch up to you all soon. But if I don’t, then avenge me when you have grown strong enough!”

Krong—

The sky shuddered and the space cracked like shattered mirrors. The other 17 emperors had the seals of their petrified eyes broken away just in time. They let out a battle cry and collectively pounced toward Queen Shi Ji.

Demon Emperor Qian Shan laughed aloud, “Have the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud ever run away from trouble!? If we live, we live together; and if we are to die, then we will also die together!”

“Then die you fools!” Queen Shi Ji smirked frigidly, “When you are all in your peak forms, you were no match for me; let alone after your cultivations have remained stagnant for a hundred years. Dream on, fools!”

Then, the 19 experts became engaged in a bloodletting battle. Suddenly, the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud crashed down from the sky with blood trickling down the corner of their mouths. They were single-handedly defeated by Queen Shi Ji!

Just when the Queen was on her way delivering her final killing blow to the 18 emperors, her heart suddenly tightened and a godly ray flashed into her face. Her heart skipped a beat, but it was too late for her to block it as she was sent flying before crashing into a mountain.

The earth shattered and Queen Shi Ji bolted up into the air. Her clothes and hair were disheveled and she spurted out a mouthful of blood. She looked toward the source of the godly ray and anger immediately reddened her face.

There, Zhong Yue was holding the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror high up, pointing it at her.

“Damn you brat!” Queen Shi Ji was grinding her teeth as she laughed out of extreme fury, “You have the audacity to even attack your mother-in-law?!”

Zhong Yue was stunned, he exclaimed in shock, “You knew it too?”

“I am not blind, you fool!” Queen Shi Ji gritted her teeth, “Ever since you came, my daughter has been going to your place so frequently and the minor changes of her physical profile clearly suggested she is no longer a virgin. If it’s not you, then who else!?”

Zhong Yue was at a loss for words, while the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud flew up into the sky. Demon Empress Bi Er gave a frigid smile, “We all knew about it. Our king has slept with your daughter and what can you do about it? Not only that he has slept your daughter, but he has also attacked you, and what can you do about it too? When our king has grown strong enough one day, it will even be uncertain if he is willing to have your daughter as one of his many wives. Even if he wanted her, she will most probably only be a mistress!”

The other emperors were suddenly filled with pride, they thought, We’ve been losing to this lady ever since the start, but now we finally can condemn her. Cheers to King Geng!

On the other hand, Zhong Yue was having a serious headache as he thought,Thankfully only they know about it, no one else other than them… besides Heavenly King Lu and also Xin Huo I guess.…
