Rise of Humanity
chapter-865

The 18 Jinwu elders sat down. Each of them was extremely extraordinary and just as they sat down, one of them opened his mouth before a rumbling voice sounded, “Dao!”

As this word was spoken, Zhong Yue’s mental flinched and the sun above his head shook; within this word was hidden endless wonders, wonders that were much more complicated and powerful than the ones contained within all of the Jinwu Deity Emperors’ concepts!

As the word was spoken, fiery suns emerged from his back one after another. These were the old man’s totem patterns and Dao and they all turned into Pure Yang suns, each of which contained a different Dao!

“Dao!”

The second Jinwu elder made a sign before releasing another Dao word that contained the power of creation, completely different to the first old man’s.

This word shook Zhong Yue’s mind and the sun behind his back was blown away and the fire drifted away for a few thousand miles long.

“Dao!” shouted the third old man.

“Dao!”

“Dao!”

….

In turn, the 18 Jinwu Creators displayed their own outstanding understanding towards the Innate Pure Yang Dao. Though they were all from the Jinwu Clan, their understanding towards the Innate Pure Yang Dao was completely different. Their starting point was the same but somewhere down the road, they’d taken their very own Dao path before they reached where they were now. Hence, even when they were all cultivating the Innate Pure Yang Dao, their understanding towards it was not the same.

The 18 Jinwu Creators turned into proud suns, each with different wonders and stood off with Zhong Yue’s on a debate; this was a test that was much more grand and marvelous than the one with Deity Emperors. The Dao voices rumbled and unveiled the wonders of the innate — it was indescribable!

The sun above Zhong Yue flinched before the many suns, dimming from time to time. But in the end, there would always be Dao voices that echoed out from his sound, which prevented his sun from going out under the suppression of the 18 Jinwu elders.

Meanwhile, Ji Yunfei, Mo Haozun, and the others were in awe; even Mu Suge was worried for Zhong Yue as he had no idea if Zhong Yue could withstand the attacks from the 18 Jinwu Creators.

Among the 18 Creators, they were a few that rivaled him, also standing at the pinnacle of Creators!

Although he knew that Zhong Yue was an innate god in his previous life and was a Creator, he still couldn’t help but be worried for Zhong Yue.

Out of their expectations, however, not only did Zhong Yue manage to stand his ground firmly against the 18 Creators, he even managed to retaliate!

This debate was completely on each other’s understanding on the Innate Pure Yang Dao instead of cultivation level, hence, as someone who understood this Dao more than they did, it did not take long before Zhong Yue launched a counter-attack. The sun above his head started to shine brightly and the Dao voices echoed from his sun starting to overpower the Creators’. Finally, his sun completely outshone the Creators’.

“Innate Tai Yang Dao?”

The Creators’ expressions changed right away before they shouted in sync and the proud suns collided with each other, merged with one another. The suns combined into a blue massive sun in the blink of an eye. This blue sun that hung above the Turtle Fishing Platform had the 18 Creators’ Dao rules in it and it was a sun that forcefully turned into a godly sun from the Innate Tai Yang Dao!

As soon as this massive blue sun emerged, heat scorched the earth and rampaged fiercely, causing the many experts on the stage to feel as if they were all being melted!

The blue sun felt as if it could burn anything in this universe, and its Dao voices were far more complicated and advanced than its constituent suns. Upon being burnt by the sun, the many spectators immediately got down from the platform and distanced themselves away.

The Innate Pure Yang Dao was a lot more inferior to the Innate Tai Yang Dao; even though they had yet to successfully cultivate the purest Innate Tai Yang Dao, with their might combined, they could still merge their understandings together to create a complete Innate Tai Yang Dao.

Compared to the blue sun, Zhong Yue’s seemed rather underwhelming. It looked just like an ant before this massive sun.

The blue godly sun continued to burn ablaze and beside it, Zhong Yue’s sun continued to resist it, colliding and crashed with each other.

This debate continued for ten days and right now, the puny sun was far larger than it was before; as the debate continued, the little sun absorbed the power from the massive blue godly sun, siphoning away its totem patterns to strengthen itself. As the little sun enlarged, the blue godly sun shrunk.

Suddenly, the expression of the 18 Jinwu Creators turned pale and the blue godly sun writhed while the Dao voices disappeared without a sign.

“Impressive, the sun has no borders and it could light up anything!”

The many Creators stood up and bowed at Zhong Yue as their tones took on a greater level of respect, “This fellow Daoist from the Yi Clan is amazing, the 18 of us surrender, your understandings on this Dao far outstrip ours!”

Zhong Yue immediately bowed back and said humbly, “Thank you, elders. I merely understood the Innate Tai Yang Dao. I won because you were all unfamiliar with this field. Thank you for your help in aiding me to refine my Dao.

Previously, through the debate, Zhong Yue devoured the 18 Creators’ blue godly sun, absorbing the power hidden within the sun to strengthen his own. Without this debate, it would have taken him a hundred years to achieve, hence, his gratitude towards those elders was heartfelt.

The 18 Jinwu Creators bowed back and left. Just as Zhong Yue was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a Jinwu Clan’s young lady rapidly descending from the skies. The lady landed right onto the Turtle Fishing Platform and sat with her legs crossed.

“Fellow Daoist Yi, do you mind another round?” asked the lady as she giggled.

Zhong Yue, however, was surprised upon noticing that the lady was just a True Deity. He was puzzled at why was this lady was sent to debate with him when even Deity Emperors and Creators lost to him.

But that did not stop him from sitting down again. He nodded at the lady and replied politely, “Please, after you, senior martial sister.”

Jin Chufei on the other hand, bore a serious expression and said, “She’s here! Seems like a massive tremble occurred among we Jinwu Clan’s higher-ups and they wanted her to retain our clan’s reputation!”

Yao Xingyue immediately asked, “Brother Chufei, who is this?”

Jin Chufei glanced around and after realizing that no other Jinwu Clan’s disciple decided to stay, he let down his guards and explained, “She is our Jinwu Clan’s Heavenly Lady, the next clan master, Jin Hexi. Her understanding of the Dao rivals the old clan master’s. I’d venture to say that even the old clan master may not necessarily win against Brother Yi, thus, she was sent to deal with him. If she also loses to him, then our clan would have been truly defeated.”

Ji Yunfei, who was standing at the side said, “Brother Chufei, you revealed your own clan’s information, are you not worried about the old clan master and the higher-ups’ punishments?”

Jin Chufei shook his head and said confidently, “Senior Martial Sister Jin Hexi will not lose! She is the brightest talent we have ever had in the last few hundred thousand years! When she was still young, she was already cultivating under the many elders and after she grew into an adult, even the elders were no longer able to match her. She then studied under the Imperial Emperors, receiving their teachings personally and sixty years later, when the seven Imperial Emperors bid farewell with her, the Imperial Emperors addressed her as their equal, rather than a junior. She then studied under the old clan master for a hundred year before the old clan master said that there was nothing left for him to teach to her. With that, he sent her to the ancestor grounds to study under the innate celestial monarch.”

Everyone flinched before this revelation and Mu Suge shouted, “The Jinwu Clan’s innate celestial monarch is still alive?”

Jin Chufei gave him a stern look and said, “Where are your manners? What do you mean by still alive? We Jinwu Clan’s innate celestial monarch is an innate god with eternal life. Of course he is still alive! I will look past this matter since you are Brother Yi’s servant but there will not be a second time!”

Mu Suge shut his mouth right away but his heart still pounded quickly, They say the Jinwu Clan’s innate celestial monarch lost his life in the massive war 100,000 years ago but he is still alive! This is a shocking news!

Jin Chufei continued saying, “Not long ago, Senior Martial Sister Hexi returned from the ancestor grounds and if she couldn’t even win, the old clan master wouldn’t be able to win either!”

Everyone was in even more of a shock; with their innate talents in addition being personally guided by an innate celestial monarch… just how strong was this new challenger this time?

Seems like the Jinwu Clan is very keen on beating Zhong Yue!

On the Turtle Fishing Platform, Zhong Yue and Jin Hexi sat face to face. Suddenly, Zhong Yue made a hand sign before a thick and rumbling screech came out from his mouth. Along with this screech, a sun emerged and this innate godly sun rose into the air while being shrouded in rumbling Dao voices.

Before the screech ended, another clarion screech rang out; Jin Hexi screeched after a hand sign but unlike Zhong Yue’s, hers was much clearer and melodious in comparison.

Another innate godly sun rose into the air, shining brightly and also unlike Zhong Yue’s, her sun’s sunlight was warm and nice.

Zhong Yue’s was like the noon’s sun that scorched the earth with unbearable heat.

The two voices contained different understandings towards the Innate Tai Yang Dao and as the voices became louder and louder, the sunlight twined around each other and hiked further into the air.

The two innate godly suns also circled around each other, spun quickly and climbed higher.

Shua—

A divine tree uprooted from the ground, it was a Sui Tree. Zhong Yue’s innate godly sun circled around the Sui Tree while fiery dragons, phoenixes, serpents, and crows danced around the tree, twined together and suppressed Jin Hexi’s innate godly sun right away.

Shua—

Jin Hexi’s soft body trembled before another divine tree uprooted from the ground, it was a Fusang Divine Tree that resonated with the massive Fusang Divine Tree in Jinwu Clan’s sacred ground. Supernatural phenomena occurred and her innate godly sun shone brightly, rivaling Zhong Yue’s equally.

Their Qi and Dao then got stronger and stronger as they started to unleash more of their strength, perfecting their own Innate Tai Yang Dao in an attempt to defeat one another.

As they both refined themselves through battling each other, they made full use of their intelligence, utilizing their potential greatly and their understanding of the Innate Tai Yang Dao skyrocketed!

Zhong Yue’s eyes lit up and suddenly, he placed his palms before his chest and shouted, “Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao!”

In six shouts, Dao voices rumbled again and lights shot out from his body before the lights turned into six alluring light wheels that entered the Innate Sui Tree and placed it right into the six light wheels.

With that, the Innate Six Paths Reincarnation that included the Innate Tai Yang Dao was formed and created a complete cycle!

Finally, Zhong Yue broke his limits and improved himself another step further as he merged the Six Paths Reincarnation with the Innate Tai Yang Dao, forming a complete cycle, which also meant that this time, his level in the Innate Tai Yang Dao had reached a peak he had never imagined!

Jin Hexi on the other hand, also shouted six times; her Dao words possessed different meanings and wonders and similar to Zhong Yue, her Innate Tai Yang Dao and Six Paths Reincarnation merged together.

Their Dao voices trembled the skies; innate totem patterns turned into flower petals that showered from the skies and golden spring water gushed out from the Turtle Fishing Platform. As the golden spring water gushed out, golden fiery lotuses blossomed and among the lotuses, a sun emerged.

This scene was extremely marvelous that it even amazed the many Jinwu Clan’s Creators standing far away from the Turtle Fishing Platform.

Somewhere further away, Jinwu Clan’s old clan master who was observing this debate sighed, “Hexi’s understanding on this Dao far surpassed me but her foe is also a strong one. He understands the Six Paths Reincarnation before her and if she can’t beat him, then it will be a shame to us Jinwu Clan….”

His expression was extremely gloomy right now.

“Extreme Yang to Yin, did fellow Daoist Yi achieve this?” Jin Hexi’s aura changed right away, birthing Yin through extreme Yang, turning her Innate Tai Yang Dao into Innate Tai Yin Dao, crossing the Yin with Yang and grew together like a Tai Chi Picture.

Zhong Yue groaned and the Six Paths Reincarnation behind him vanished, the sun above him died out. He got up and said, “Impressive, senior martial sister, you’ve won.”

Jin Hexi was shocked however, she got up right away, bowed back at Zhong Yue and asked, “Why… Thank you.”

Her beautiful eyes blinked and locked onto Zhong Yue while she transmitted a message to him, “Why did you let me win?”

Zhong Yue paused in surprise for a second and replied, “How did you know?”
