Rise of Humanity
chapter-930

When Old Man Xuan and Qi rushed back to the Heaven Court and met with the Heavenly Monarch, they reported, “Your Majesty, we failed to kill King Yi of the Xian Tian Palace.”

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming locked his brows but still smiled shortly after, “So Mu Xiantian came to their rescue and stopped you? Mister Mo, your predications are wrong it seems. Mu Xiantian is not in a life-or-death closed door cultivation for the breakthrough to the monarch level.”

Behind the throne where a folding screen stood, a handsome young man walked out with a frown, “Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is not in the life-or-death closed door cultivation? Strange… does it not require a life-or-death closed door cultivation for the innate gods to breakthrough the level of monarch?”

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming shook, “Tracing back even to the oldest time, there was only one Heavenly Monarch who didn’t go through the life-or-death closed door cultivation, the others all had done so. Mu Xiantian shouldn’t be an exception.”

The young man was none other than Mo Yin. He pondered seconds and commented, “For Imperial Emperor Xian Tian to dare challenge Your Majesty’s throne, he should be at the edge of becoming a monarch. But he still hasn’t gone into the life-or-death closed door cultivation, something’s off…”

Old Man Xuan and Qi exchanged a look and they both laughed together, “Your Majesty, Mister Mo, you are both overthinking. We didn’t leave because of Mu Xiantian, but we left because we’ve lost a bet with King Yi.”

Mo Yin suddenly lost his chill and exclaimed in shock, “Seniors, why did you bet against him? If he agreed to a bet, then it means that he was already confident in beating you!”

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was also between laughters and tears, he asked, “What did the two old men betted against?”

“Forging skills.”

Old Man Xuan said, “We’ve bet with him on who would forge better. If he won, we were to let him go; if he lost, he would die.”

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Mo Yin exclaimed in unison, “And you lost!?”

They were shocked. In this era alone, these two old men stood head and shoulders above everyone else in regards to forging. And now, they were saying that they had lost to Mister Yi of the Xian Tian Palace in forging?

Even being an innate god in his past life, there was still no way Mister Yi could’ve won!

One must know that during the interception with Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, Old Man Xuan and Qi had forged a divine bow and cornered Imperial Emperor Xian Tian with it. This alone showed just how strong they were.

How could Mister Yi have such a level of skills?

Old Man Qi sighed, “We did lose. The Xian Tian Palace’s Mister Yi sure deserves his title. The treasure he was forging was out of our league, it was way beyond what we could forge.”

Rays flashed across Mo Yin’s eyes as he asked, “What was it he was forging? And what was it you were forging?”

Old Man Xuan and Qi shook, “What he is forging is unlike anything we’ve seen before. It can attract the Daos of this heaven and earth, and there is even a trace of Dao that is even more saintly and terrifying that it even caused the phantoms of the gods to praise and enhance it.”

“Praise and enhancement from the phantoms of gods?” Mo Yin was puzzled.

“It seems like they are the spirits that descended from the Void World.” They too weren’t sure as what happened was beyond their imagination. They had never come across an incident where forging a weapon would attract the spirits to descend from the Void World.

“The treasures we’ve forged are tailored against the weaknesses of the wild human Fu Shu, the Yinkang Clan’s Innate Saint Spirit Body, the Hundun Clan’s Hundun Yu, and Mister Yi.”

Old Man Xuan and Qi took out 4 weapons and Old Man Xuan said, “Here they are. Our [Demonic Chant of Reincarnation] in addition to the Million Treasure Dao Hammer combined together can help us find their weaknesses during the forging process. Subsequently, we will be able to forge a mystic weapon targeted on their death spots.”

“This needle is called the Soul Killer, can be used to kill Creator Fu Shu.”

“This scissors is called the Soul Cutter, can be used to kill Hundun Yu. But Hundun Yu has the Hundun Clan’s monarch-weapon Fusang Branch, making him a hard target.”

“This is the Divine Dragon Bell, can be used to kill the Yinkang Clan’s Innate Saint Spirit Body, she won’t be able to escape from this weapon.”

“This divine weapon is called the Six Paths Armillary Sphere, it is the best of the best. With this in hand, one can suppress and cease all of Mister Yi’s life essences!”

Mo Yin’s eyes brightened up, he smiled, “To have forged these 4 weapons, seniors have already taken down Mister Yi. Your contributions are immeasurable! Can these 4 weapons…”

Old Man Xuan and Qi handed it over while sighing, “To kill a talent like Mister Yi not in a fair and square battle but through shady works of weapons. We do not view this as the true way.”

Mo Yin straightened his back and said solemnly, “Seniors may be from a demonic background, but Yin admires your honorable mindset. But Mister Yi is far too dangerous, he alone is more threatening than a billion warriors, or three or even four Imperial Emperors. If he is not taken down, he and King Zi Guang will both work together and stand unstoppable ever since. I’ve lured him to the Heaven Court to join with His Majesty’s birthday celebration so that he can present his head to His Majesty, that is the greatest present he can offer to His Majesty. Now, what concerns me more is whether or not Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is in a life-or-death closed door cultivation!”

…

The Kirin carriage was closing in on the Zi Wei Imperial Star. The atmosphere around was growing more vivid and lively.

From time to time, they could see luxuriously decorated fleets from afar. Some belonged to the celestials and others to demons. There were the Creators and even Imperial Emperors, they were most probably the sovereigns of the races.

After all, it was the Heavenly Monarch’s 70,000th Birthday Ceremony. Naturally, this event caught the attention of all races, factions, and powers across the universe, even some forces in the ancient universe and the Realm Monarchs had sent their men to pay respects.

This era was still under the rule of the Heaven Court, and the Heavenly Monarch was still the nominal ruler of the universe.

If it were Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s 70,000th Birthday Ceremony, the celebrations surely wouldn’t be as festive.

Zhong Yue looked around and thought, Although Heaven Court has lost its reputation for not stepping in to cease the wars, it still is the strongest force in the universe, the one and only rightful power to rule all. Imperial Emperor Xian Tian is still far from success.

The difficulty of toppling a regime that spanned across a whole universe was staggering!

Soon after, the Kirin carriage entered the Imperial Star. Zhong Yue’s arrival wasn’t grand, but still warranted attention. The three Heavens that were hovering above the carriage alone were able to dim down the other treasures’ attractiveness. Three Heavens weren’t something that ordinary races could pull out.

Probably only the monarch races that had been staying in the State of Heavenly River like the Yinkang Clan were able to pull out such treasures for their daughter’s marriage.

Inside of the carriage, Zhong Yue was playing with the Tian Pan. It wasn’t a divine weapon but just a vessel to the Heavenly Dao. However, its power was not to be underestimated despite it being incomplete.

There was a reason why Zhong Yue decided to forge the Tian Pan instead of other 29 Heavenly Daos. The Heavenly Dao contained by Tian Pan was a special one, looking into it would allow one to reveal the heaven’s and earth’s secrets.

In short, the Tian Pan was actually a calculatory treasure that uses the Heavenly Dao.

He was planning to use it to improve his divinatory calculation technique!

At the moment, his divinatory calculation technique with the Yin and Yang lines had reached a bottleneck. However, with the help of the Tian Pan, he would be able to take a huge step forward!

I want to combine the eight Innate Daos and also the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi], the [Fu Min Dao Venerate Heart Sutra Scripture], [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace], and [Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture] into a new mystic art. But it’d be impossible to achieve it on my own even after exceeding the limit of my intelligence.

Zhong Yue’s eyes flashed and he kept the Tian Pan in his Dao Yi Secret Realm, he thought, With Tian Pan, I will be able to improve my divinatory calculation technique to a level no one has ever achieved before. By then, the difficulty of combining the four cultivation arts into one will be greatly lowered!

In the Dao Yi Secret Realm, in front of the Pan Gu celestial, Tian Pan was hovering quietly in front of the giant.

All of a sudden, the giant’s six arms swayed and its hands made various hand seals, stamping the seals into the mystical Tian Pan.

Immediately, the mystical patterns on Tian Pan’s surface glowed brightly as if they were alive while the mystical patterns also surfaced from Tian Pan’s inner walls and bottom.

These patterns felt like representations of the universe. They were changing nonstop and evolving themselves as they tried to uncover the marvelousness of the changes of Daos.

Zhong Yue looked at the changes and a thought came into his mind. Then, the Pan Gu celestial made more seals, the Innate Daos of Yin, Yang, Celestial, Demon, Lightning, and Yi had been turned into the Yin and Yang lines that swarmed into the Tian Pan!

At the same time, the Space Dao and Time Dao flew out from Zhong Yue’s Space Secret Realm and Time Secret Realm, also turning into the Yin and Yang lines and entering Tian Pan.

Inside of Zhong Yue’s body, in the secret realms, tens of thousands of his incarnations were agitated, rushing into the Dao Yi Secret Realm and leaping into the Tian Pan.

With Tian Pan’s strong divinatory calculation on the Heavenly Daos and a million of his incarnations, his road to combining the arts into one had officially started!

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue himself was still sitting in the carriage as the Kirins galloped in midair along the Heavenly River, moving toward the South Heaven Gate.

On the front of the cabin, Fu Shu raised his hand and the three Heavens showered lights down, forming three layers of light that illuminated the carriage from within. The sounds of the Daos sounded in their ears and the others were pushed away around them, none were able to get too close to them now.

It was an act to show his status and also to ensure the carriage’s safety.

Fu Shu was brawny and had dragon scales paving across his waist, making him look like an indomitable warrior when the lights reflected off the scales.

And although Hundun Yu didn’t appear as heroic, he had the Fusang Branch, making him like a towering tree that could never been brought down. Red streaks ran across the Fusang Branch’s surface while the air of Hundun intermittently leaked out from it. It was truly stunning.

As such, the others quickly distanced themselves from the Kirin carriage, not daring to come close at all.

Suddenly, a shout came from afar, “Yi Feng, it’s you! I was just wondering who this flamboyant character could be!”

Zhong Yue walked out of the cabin, he looked out and laughed, “Tian Xuanzi, long time no see.”

Far away, there was a group of men with marquees above their heads, it was the Juling Clan. The Juling Clan was a sovereign race, a level above monarch races.

Thus, the Juling Clan had also sent out a group of men to celebrate the incumbent Heavenly Monarch’s 70,000th birthday.

Tian Xuanzi stood on one of the marquees, he had grown even taller and brawnier than before. Most would have to raise their heads just so they could see his face. He laughed, “Where’s your wife? Ask her to come out. After I was defeated the last time, I went back to fix my flaws and cultivate even harder. Now, I am stronger, I will fight her again and this time, I don’t think I will lose!”

Zhong Yue smiled, but before he spoke, clamors happened among the guests.

“Mister Yi is also here?”

“Xian Tian Palace’s King Yi has come? He dares to come?”

“I heard King Yi and his wife are known as the Husband and Wife Couple Saints. They are both invincible to those in the same cultivation level, they have defeated every expert on the Heavenly River!”

“The Xian Tian Palace and Heaven Court are nemesis, but King Yi dares come? How daring! The Husband and Wife Couple Saints are just Deities, the Heaven Court has numerous experts, it’d be more than easy to kill them!”

“Husband and Wife Couple Saints?” Zhong Yue was puzzled, since when did they get these titles?

“Couple Saints my ass!” Tian Xuanzi laughed, “I’ve fought with Yi Feng before, he didn’t defeat me! Moreover, he concedes that he has lost to me before in the Imperial Granary!”
