Chapter 1107: Wisdom of Dao
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Seeing this, Zhong Yue was in awe, admitting that he would never have been able to do the same. King Zi Guang waited until havoc wreaked Imperial Star before he stood up and left.
Before the king left, he raised a thumb at Zhong Yue while laughing contemptuously.
Zhong Yue was still in shock when he found Jiang Yiqi and asked,
Has King Zi Guang told you what he did?

Jiang Yiqi took out a roll of fabric and replied,
He said he used a roll of fabric like this to ignite the situation.


It was a roll of fabric that made the races war against one another?



Zhong Yue was shocked. The fabric was the finest he had ever seen. Every strand of it was engraved with totem patterns and its actual material was unknown even to someone with a wide array of knowledge like himself.
Wanjun is from the Tian Suo Celestial Race, she might be able to recognize what this material is.
Zhong Yue soon found Yi Wanjun and passed her the fabric. The young lady exclaimed in surprise,
This is a fabric only our Tian Suo Celestial Race’s weavers can produce, we have a special name for it — the Silk of Love. It’s weaved by a weaver to her lover, it’s a gift of love and only a virgin weaver can weave the Silk of Love. Whoever weaved this has a high position in the clan. In the tradition of the weavers, every Silk of Love has its own branding that can distinguish its maker and the name of the maker’s lover.

She inspected the fabric carefully and continued,
This weaver goes by the name of Zhi Xinwei. Strange, isn’t she the clan master of the Tian Suo Celestial Race in the Zi Wei Heaven Court? I heard she was married to the Jinti Clan’s clan master.

Then, Zhong Yue asked Jiang Yiqi,
Who did Zi Guang give the fabric to?

Jiang Yiqi answered,
Zi Guang said he has acquired it from the Shuilong Clan and sent it to the Jinti Clan’s clan master.


I see.
Zhong Yue was between laughter and tears once he found out the truth. King Zi Guang’s plot was simple yet incredibly effective. The Jinti clan master’s wife had given her virginity to someone from the Shuilong Clan, but she was married to the Jinti Clan.
Through some unknown means, King Zi Guang had gotten his hands on her Silk of Love and sent it to the Jinti Clan’s clan master. With the history of his wife and her affairs brought to light, it was no surprise that the Jinti Clan waged war on the Shuilong Clan.
The plot was simple, but the races of the Imperial Star shared enormously complicated relationships. In terms of Karmic Lines, they were like billions of lines intertwined into a colossal ball. It was impossible to smoothen the relationships between them, not even Zhong Yue could!
Yet, King Zi Guang had found the most crucial strand of the billions of Karmic Lines and pulled it!


When it was pulled out, the colossal block of intertwined Karmic Lines crumbled right away!
Thus, what seemed to be the simplest plan turned out to be the hardest one to execute. It required a great deal of wisdom to devise!
Simplicity was the ultimate wisdom!
He who was able to turn the most complex task into a simple job has the wisdom of the Dao.
What terrified Zhong Yue the most was the fact King Zi Guang’s plan couldn’t even be counted as a strategy. He didn’t need to carefully hide nor deceive anyone into falling for it. He just casually handed out a piece of fabric and the Imperial Star burned itself down into the fire of war.
If King Zi Guang wanted to do anything to me, he would most likely use the simplest trick as well.
Zhong Yue frowned. He wasn’t afraid of Mo Yin, or Consort Tian Si, or even Yun Shujuan. But he feared Zi Guang.
If Zi Guang wanted him dead, he would be struck at places he was most unforeseeable. Simple, yet deadly!
If King Zi Guang is not taken out…
His eyelids thumped softly. An opponent whose wisdom was close to the Dao, he was definitely more terrifying than anyone else!


He may not have invincible prowess, nor lead an invincible army, but he was far more dangerous than Mu Xiantian and posed far more threat to Zhong Yue!
Then, Zhong Yue furtively glanced over at Jiang Yiqi. If he wanted Zi Guang dead, Jiang Yiqi would be the saddest among them all.

Your Majesty, we’ve found Mu Xiantian’s sacred land.

In the Heaven Court, King Shen Wuwei returned and reported to Heavenly Monarch Di Ming,
I’ve searched every inch of land in the ancient universe, explored countless sacred lands but found no sight of it. Then, only after visiting the Evil Monarch was I able to find a clue. After tracing the clue for tens of years, I finally found the Xuan Pin Sacred Land. The sacred land was shaped like an oyster. It nurtured the innate demon light and innate celestial light. Mu Xiantian has hidden it in the Nine Tranquil Darkly Land, as deep as the darkness can reach.

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was overjoyed, he stood up abruptly and laughed,
King Wuwei, you really are my lucky star! The merits you’ve done this time is beyond words! Summon the six advisors!

Soon after, the six advisors of the Heaven Court had arrived and greeted Heavenly Monarch Di Ming. The six advisors were Advisor Dao, Advisor Bi, Advisor Di, Advisor Shang, Advisor Cheng, and Advisor Shao. As advisors to the monarch. They enjoyed high positions in the Heaven Court, just a level below the prime ministers. They were also six peaked Imperial Emperors.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was smiling,
Follow King Shen Wuwei to the ancient universe, to the Innate Xuan Pin Sacred Land and lay down the Six Isolation Array Formation. I want the sacred land to be isolated from the Six Paths. No mistakes!

The six advisors bowed and received their orders.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming couldn’t contain his joy and laughed happily as he said,
Mu Xiantian, Mu Xiantian, looks like even the universe wants you dead, what else more can you do now! In the Six Isolation Array Formation, your mother body will be trapped and your Six Paths Reincarnation isolated. You will not be able to revive your true body once they are killed!

Quickly, King Shen Wuwei and the six advisors left.


Heavenly Monarch Di Ming found Queen Goddess and laughed,
Zitong, Mu Xiantian is now out of the way. He will die once you and I have opened the seventh secret realm!

Queen Goddess, however, was worried,
The Imperial Star is not looking good now. The races are warring against each other, the situation is growing dire every second. It’s not a good sign.

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming smiled,
They are just a bunch of swine that goes with whichever direction the wind blows. Just look, once Mu Xiantian is killed, they will all turn around again to surrender and beg for mercy. Now, my only worries are Monarch Jin Tian, Monarch Qing He, and the other old folks. However, they are much easier to deal with than Mu Xiantian. Zitong, we’ve been through thick and thin all these years. You have half of my empire!

Queen Goddess’s eyes turned soft and gentle as she chuckled,
Your Majesty, what are you saying? How could I? Your Majesty, let’s quickly get back to study the seventh secret realm and open it as soon as we can.

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming nodded.
…
20 years went by in the blink of an eye. In these 20 years, Zhong Yue had fully merged the first Fuxi monarch, Monarch Pao Xi’s [Wind and Cloud Heavenly Crane Heart Scripture] into his Innate Eight Trigrams] and cultivated the Innate Wind Dao.
As the days went by, his cultivation base deepened and he could feel the days his ascension into the Deity Emperor level coming soon. He couldn’t help but feel happy about it.
One day, Zhong Yue quietly snuck out of the Heaven Breaching Fortress and strolled out. He thought, The Heavenly Daos’ skills are almost uncounterable and indecipherable. The Heaven Dao is the hardest to cultivate in my [Innate Eight Trigrams]. However, Goddess Shen Hou can help me in my Earth Dao and Water Dao. As for the Mountain Dao and Lake Dao, I will have to work on it myself. I’ll be passing by Senior Martial Brother Feng’s place before arriving in the Hua Xu Sacred Land. I should stop by to visit Senior Martial Brother Feng and Pan Suxin.
Before he traveled far from the Imperial Star, he suddenly stopped and gazed into a battlefield somewhere in the corner of the planet. He murmured,
Old friend, how did you end up here?



It was the battlefield between the Changsheng Clan and Zhongyang Clan. Both races were far stronger than the rest of the ordinary monarch races. The Zhongyang Clan was a clan with five reigns of Heavenly Monarchs during the Earth Order Era and still had living monarch in the clan. Its prowess and influence were beyond compare.
Furthermore, the Zhongyang Clan had five monarch weapons and five monarch spirits. It could even be said as the only faction in the Imperial Star that was on par with the Xian Tian Palace’s and Heaven Court’s power!
During the ongoing havoc since 20 years ago, the Zhongyang Clan was also forced to step in and intervene in the turmoil caused by King Zi Guang. And the prowess it demonstrated to the universe undoubtedly shocked the races in the Imperial Star.
But the Changsheng Clan was not to be underestimated as well. Monarch Chang Sheng was one of those who helped Heavenly Monarch Di Ming become the Heavenly Monarch. But after years of closed-door cultivation, his cultivation base deepened and his prowess turned unfathomable. Thus, giving him the confidence to fight for the throne of Heavenly Monarch.
Monarch Chang Sheng had taken a low profile. But the havoc in the Imperial Star came too quickly, too strong, even he couldn’t stay out of it as well and was also dragged into it.
The battle between the two races took place all of a sudden, both races were not fully prepared for it. Furthermore, Monarch Zun Yang was distracted by Diming Clan’s and Wuming Clan’s assaults, unable to focus his attention on the Changsheng Clan.
Whereas the Changsheng Clan was not as strong as the Zhongyang Clan, it wasn’t in the place to form an alliance with the Diming Clan as well. Thus, both races were not feeling comfortable to be in the war now.
On the battlefield, there was a granny aiding the Changsheng Clan’s forces. She was a god ascended from an uncommon lifeform.
She was a Creator. There was a hairpin made of a peachtree branch on her head and her skills were all accompanied by the appearances of blooming peach flowers.
Zhong Yue opened his Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils and inspected carefully, he thought, It’s really her! It has been so long. Looks like she has joined the Changsheng Clan, no wonder I couldn’t find her anywhere!
Then, he snuck into the Nether and infiltrated the Imperial Star. He flew for a long time and arrived at the battlefield.
The granny was battling two Zhongyang Creators, her situation was dire and death was imminent. But suddenly, one of the Creators lost control of his skill and accidentally lashed it out on his comrade. Seizing the chance, the granny launched a barrage of attacks, killing one of the Creators and heavily injuring the other!
Soon, the Changsheng Clan won the battle and the Zhongyang Clan’s soldiers retreated. Arrows were rained down from behind and stopped the Changsheng Clan from chasing them.
Then, the Changsheng Clan sounded the warhorn and returned to their camps. The granny also returned to her palace on her own and sat down. She was gazing at a blank space and suddenly, she laughed,
Young man of the Fuxi Clan, you’ve walked out of the ruins of Kun Lun to the Imperial Star.

Zhong Yue reverted to his true appearance and walked out of the Nether, he smiled and greeted,
Junior greets Ancient Mother Di Lin. How did Ancient Mother know that I was here?

Ancient Mother Di Lin looked at him, she said,
You’ve eaten my peaches, it’s like you eating my son. How can I not know you are here? Was it you that helped me back there?

Zhong Yue nodded,
I’m now a little capable of doing more, of course I have to help senior out whenever I can. Ancient Mother Di Lin, how did you end up here in the Changsheng Clan to help Monarch Chang Sheng fighting for the throne of Heavenly Monarch?

Ancient Mother Di Lin was the Immortality Peach Mother Tree in the Kun Lun Realm’s Returning Ruins. She and Zhong Yue had met before. She was the divine tree from the Life Tree’s fruit seed planted by Reincarnation Monarch.
Back then, when Zhong Yue was in the Returning Ruins, Ancient Mother Di Lin gave him an Immortality Peach that helped him extend his lifespan and allowed him to cultivate the Six Paths Reincarnation under the tree.
Zhong Yue had also given an Immortality Peach to Shui Zian and extended his lifespan.
When the Returning Ruins were destroyed, Ancient Mother Di Lin came to Zi Wei and for the next 700 years, Zhong Yue never heard from her anymore.
Ancient Mother Di Lin invited Zhong Yue to take a seat and smiled,
Monarch Chang Sheng is one of my kind, so of course, I have come to him. He is a saint herb cultivated into the monarch level.

Zhong Yue was shocked, he exclaimed involuntarily,
Saint herb cultivated into monarch? How is that possible?


A divine herb can cultivate into a god, why can’t a saint herb cultivate into a monarch?

Ancient Mother Di Lin smiled,
Reincarnation Saint Monarch has attained the Six Paths Reincarnation and became a monarch under my tree. His ascension has also given me sentience and allowed me to cultivate. This was his gift to me, a turning point in my life. Monarch Chang Sheng has a similar past, an ancient paragon had given him guidance and eventually allowed him to become a monarch. In fact, Monarch Chang Sheng and yourself share a very interesting link.
