Rise of Humanity-Chapter 1153: Mystery In The Eye

This was not Zhong Yue’s first visit to Bi Luo Palace, hence, he was considered no stranger to its structure, but with Xuan Ji around, it would be inappropriate to appear to be familiar with it.

Where they were right now was the place where the 800 innate gods cultivated. Among them, most were birthed from worship, they all cultivated right here, lived with each other, and made things very lively.

Ever since Zhong Yue and Si Ming’s robbery, however, Si Ming’s triple questions caused the Heaven Will’s brain explode, killing half of the innate gods and Mister Bi Luo sent the remaining ones out to take part in the war of the throne. Thus, this place remained as it is when the brain exploded, rubble scattered around and every place was in bad shape.

There was a great restriction on all innate gods, those from the Bi Luo Palace were all the Heaven’s disciples, upon running into each other, they were restricted from killing each other, hence, apart from the Sign of Nine-Five, the others still remained nameless as they had yet to pull off anything outstanding.

Even Sign of Nine-Five themselves lost quite a few of them before Zhong Yue’s thousand winged ancient ship.

As for Bi Luo Palace, though they wanted to interfere with the world’s affair, and even control the rise and fall of the Heavenly Monarchs, they had been achieving barely anything up until now.

After all, there were still existences like Yuan Ya and the other ancient existences, even if Bi Luo Palace was strong, they were not as powerful as these existences. They wouldn’t let Heaven’s power reach deep into the universe and that left Mister Bi Luo with few chances. All he could do was wait for his chance.

Meanwhile, while walking in the ruins, Zhong Yue was a little mixed with emotion after seeing the destruction he had caused.

“King Yi, it has been a long time.”

Xuan Ji smiled, “It’s been 40 years ever since that man beside you ambushed me and chased after me. 40 years is just the blink of an eye to us, but for humans, it is already two generations later.”

Given how dire the situation was for humans, 40 years was indeed a very long life. At about 15 years old, they would be getting married, giving birth to their child and once they reached 40 years old, their child would be an adult, having already married with their own child.

To ordinary humans, 40 years was enough time for an empire to rise and fall.

But to the gods, however, 40 years was really a blink of an eye’s time.

Zhong Yue smiled, “And the injuries given to you by that man?”

“Fully recovered.”

The surprised Xuan Ji mumbled, “He is a human too? Strange, how did I fail to notice this after such a long fight with him? I kinda feel that he is a monster created by an unnatural force, he possesses all celestial races’ innate talents and that caught me off guard, throwing me off the upper hand easily and denying me the chance to turn the tables. Finally, I got myself injured, but the injuries were not that serious. King Yi, I can tell that you are close to his level back then judging from this rapid improvement of yours.”

Zhong Yue nodded and said with mixed feelings, “40 years gap… and how many of those gaps are between us? If I want to catch up with him, I will have to spend more than a mere 40 years. Brother Xuan Ji, it has been some time since we last met. May I suggest a quick friendly duel?”

Xuan Ji smiled, “King Yi, you are always so hungry for a battle, aren’t you? Forget battling and you will be in danger, but obsess in it and it will kill you., I’m sure you know about this.”

“Wrong!”

Zhong Yue replied seriously, “I am not battle-hungry. I only desire to learning. I love studying and studying makes me happy! From Senior Martial Brother Xuan Ji, I will be able to learn things that I do not know, so please, give me this chance to learn!”

Xuan Ji blinked his eyes, this strange life form had no emotions as if his Dao heart would never be affected and he shook his head, “The battle between us will eventually turn into a battle between Heavenly Daos’ skills and [Daoless Heavens]. It would only end in a draw. There will be no second possibility. If this is the inevitable outcome, what is the point in having a duel?”

“Then we will drop the Heavenly Daos’ skills and [Daoless Heavens]!”

Zhong Yue smiled, “Or are you afraid?”

Xuan Ji smiled back, “No point provoking me, I have no emotions to provoke and any taunt will be futile.”

Zhong Yue took a step forward and his presence hiked, “I dare you.”

Xuan Ji insisted, “I said, my Dao heart is stable and I will not be taunted….”

“Just admit it, you’re afraid!”

Zhong Yue smirked, “Admit defeat before me and return my Fuxi Celestial Race’s arts to me!”

A dangerous air surged right away and Xuan Ji grinned, “I am reluctant to fight you, not afraid of you! Do you really think that Heaven’s disciple is not as good as you? You think I only know your Fuxi Celestial Race’s arts?”

Zhong Yue burst out laughing, “There is nothing that Heaven does not know, could it be that Heaven also taught you the arts of the other Heavenly Monarchs from the Earth Order Era? There will be no need to worry about my safety, just use whatever you have on me and let’s see if you can even hurt me!”

The two gazed into each other’s eyes with raging battle intent, Zhong Yue’s battle thirst hiked as each second passed and Xuan Ji on the other side, suddenly gave up and said, “I will not be taunted by you and reveal any more of my trump cards…..”

Hong long—-

Without a word, Zhong Yue delivered a punch, slamming onto Xuan Ji’s face, sending him flying, leaving a mark on his face and his body twisted before Zhong Yue’s powerful force.

Zhong Yue then turned into a meteor that dashed past the air, arriving before Xuan Ji and with a turn, 14 arms appeared, each yielding an innate divine saber and he shouted, “I am already hyped by this battle, there is no use even if you refuse to fight! If you don’t fight back, then I will beat you into fighting back!”

His unreasonable actions finally pissed Xuan Ji off, impacting Xuan Ji’s fortified Dao heart and he suppressed his strength into the same level as Zhong Yue’s, unleashing all his presence and smirking, “King Yi, you never learn from your mistakes, don’t you? Now, let’s see what you learned in these 40 years!”

Tremendous clashings emerged right away deep from Bi Luo Palace, but at the front, Mister Bi Luo and Mu Xiantian ignored the turbulence.

With bitterness, Mu Xiantian asked, “Mister Bi Luo, can you guess what I saw in that eye?”

After some silence, Mister Bi Luo’s eyes lit up and he smiled, “You are testing me, to see if I am worthy of becoming your ally? Heh, Heaven knows everything and is capable of everything. Your test won’t be a problem to me, what you see in Dark Monarch’s eye is a drum.”

Mu Xiantian’s body flinched once upon hearing this answer and she said as she nodded, “Indeed. When my demon true body died, I saw [Dragon Snake Twin Attack]’s enormous strength that cleared the eternal darkness in my teacher’s eye….”

Her demon true body was already on the innate demon monarch level, but before the [Dragon Snake Twin Attack], she found herself entirely helpless.

This strength was just so powerful that she could already imagine the power and form of Monarch Pao Xi and Goddess Nuwa when they suppressed the Dark Age’s ancient Deity Kings back in the chaotic years.

The unrivaled strength crushed him and also purged the eternal darkness in Dark Monarch’s eye.

[Dragon Snake Twin Attack] once suppressed Dark Monarch back then. And although it was not as strong as the creator of the technique, what Di Ming and Queen Goddess performed was also only a replica. The strength was still enough to injure Dark Monarch’s eye and reveal everything hidden in its darkness.

At that moment, her demon true body saw a drum hiding in the eternal darkness.

This drum was imprinted with ancient and mysterious patterns. When her vision landed on the drum, she slowly found herself being dragged into the darkness.

This drum was the reason that drove her here, casting aside all her worries as she visited Mister Bi Luo.

“This is the drum, yes?”

Mister Bi Luo flipped his palm and what appeared on his palm was a drum. After taking a look at the drum, Mu Xiantian nodded softly and said, “Similar but different still. That eye he gave me was to identify King Yi’s true identity, to know his true form, which means that there is no reason to hide this drum in the eye. If the drum hidden in the eye is not to deal with King Yi, then its definitely coming straight at me.”

“This is the Drum of Dusk created by the Heavenly Prison’s prison lord.”

Mister Bi Luo said, “Heavenly Prison’s prison lord created this drum but it is also a replica. His [Daoless Heavens] is taught by Heaven who saw the real Drum of Dusk and the real [Daoless Heavens]. After learning and referring to the wonders in them, Heaven taught them to Heavenly Prison’s prison lord and through this art, he created the Heavenly Prison and became its warden up until now. He and I, are all the Heaven’s disciple.”

Disappointment overwhelmed Mu Xiantian right away and had her mumbling, “Which means that even the Heavenly Prison’s prison lord did not obtain the real [Daoless Heavens] and she can’t deal with Drum of Dusk?”

“The real [Daoless Heavens] is not something even the Heavens could deal with, it can only be repelled and resisted.”

Mister Bi Luo smiled, “Thankfully, Dark Monarch also did not have the real [Daoless Heavens]. He may be that existence’s disciple, but there is no way he can completely get a hold of [Daoless Heavens]. Hence, his [Daoless Heavens] and Drum of Dusk can still be dealt with by the Heaven, your visit is not an unfruitful visit.”

Mu Xiantian got excited right away upon hearing this.

Zhong Yue and King Zi Guang, her two master strategists, thought that she was here to form an alliance with Bi Luo Palace to deal with Queen Goddess and sit on the throne of the Heavenly Monarch. But no one knew that she was looking for something more.

“The ancient Deity Kings are secretly controlling this universe, they are the actual ruler, no matter how many Heavenly Monarchs sat the throne, they were still there. These existences are all parasites that are manifesting in this universe.”

Mister Bi Luo smiled, “They even want to stay above Heaven, rule this universe eternally and continue their lives as a parasite. Heaven is not very happy about this. Heaven wishes to exterminate these parasites, free the postnate living beings from these abominations’ reign. Dao companion Xian Tian, you are destined to leave a heavy trace in history as a reputable one. Heavenly Lady is also the Heavenly Child!”

Mu Xiantian smirked, “Heavenly Lady? Heavenly Child? I’m afraid you are mistaken, Mister Bi Luo. I am here to seek cooperation, not to yield. Do you think that I do not have the assets to work with Heaven so I would have to lower my head and be his daughter and son?”

Mister Bi Luo smiled back, “The time you become the monarch is also the time you will be fished up and killed by Dark Monarch! Where is your asset from? Become the Heavenly Lady and Heavenly Child, work for Heaven, remove the ancient Deity Kings from their reign and you will be one above all else, but only below the Heaven itself. Your descendants will also be bestowed with the opportunity of becoming eternal Heavenly Monarchs, so why not?”

“Nothing much.”

Mu Xiantian smiled, “The Heaven’s achievements are great but also restricted. After all, as an innate god birthed from worship, he possesses the strength of a Dao God since birth but is also restricted to this strength forever. He is restricted, but I am not, why are you insisting on coloring the Heaven colorfully when in fact, he is colorless?”

Mister Bi Luo’s face stiffened up right away.

“What Heaven has control off is just those innate gods birthed from worship, how many of the innate gods birthed by heaven and earth actually listened to him?”

Mu Xiantian smiled, “But I can, I will become one that will unite celestial and demon Dao in the future! If you can’t make this decision, then go and notify Heaven, have him talk to me directly!”

Hong long—-

Massive tremblings came deep from the palace, like ancient lightning, these were all caused by the fight between Zhong Yue and Xuan Ji!
