Chapter 585

– Indomitable!

Make me surrender?

Wei Xue God’s laughter came from all directions as the blood ocean continued surging, overwhelming the skies and crashing toward Zhong Yue. Meanwhile, Zhong Yue and Shi Buyi were separated; Zhong Yue was isolated at the bottom of the ocean while Shi Buyi was on top, preventing them from teaming up.
And a strange thing suddenly occurred; another Wei Xue God appeared in front of Zhong Yue. He was standing on the blood ocean upside down like a bat while another Wei Xue God stood above the blood ocean, fighting with Shi Buyi!

Zhong Yue, you are just a puny human! A little True Spirit level Qi Practitioner, how dare you ask a god to surrender? You are a joke!

The two Wei Xue Gods looked exactly the same and they attacked at the same time, both with different moves and techniques.
Although Wei Xue God’s attacks were weak, they were unpredictable. He was able to void shift through space to attack both Zhong Yue and Shi Buyi at the same time, perfectly displayed the power of a god of the Gui Shen Celestial Race!
Zhong Yue could tell that this god that was charging toward him was not the real one, but surprisingly, it still possessed extraordinary power.
Obviously, Wei Xue God had cultivated a very special technique that not only made him almost impossible to kill but also enabled him to create an illusion of himself.
The techniques of the Gui Shen Celestial Race are indeed very unique.
Zhong Yue praised in his heart as he got knocked backwards by a blow delivered by the Wei Xue God. However, his own strength was clearly on par with the Wei Xue God as he merely got knocked backwards instead of being knocked down.
After Zhong Yue slightly tested Wei Xue God’s strength, he waved the weathered copper lamp and a terrifying gravitational force emerged and started sucking the blood ocean into the lamp.
Immediately, Wei Xue God’s expression changed. He quickly plunged towards Zhong Yue who started moving around with his lamp instead of fighting back.
As Zhong Yue moved around, the blood ocean continued to flow into the lamp with no sign of slowing down; no matter how much blood rained down, the lamp seemed to possess an inexhaustible capacity. Soon enough, the blood ocean at disappeared!
In his panic, Wei Xue God attacked Zhong Yue with all he had and the Wei Xue God that was fighting Shi Buyi also turned back and dashed towards Zhong Yue.
Zhong Yue laughed and dodged them while he continued sucking the blood ocean dry with the lamp, turning the blood ocean into a blood lake and then a pool.
With the volume of the blood ocean decreased, the two Wei Xue Gods no longer had enough space to stand, and they had to squeeze together on the remaining blood ocean.
What was strange was that as the amount of the blood in the blood ocean decreased, their strength also decreased.
And the blood on their body also got thinner, their body turned transparent as if the blood on their body flowed back into the blood ocean.
So I was right.
Zhong Yue continued sucking the blood ocean dry with the lamp and after a few moments, the blood ocean disappeared along with the two Wei Xue Gods; they evaporated into smoke before getting sucked into the lamp.
Zhong Yue then closed the cover of the lamp and murmured,
The third sacrifice!

Meanwhile, the startled Shi Buyi who later on got back to Zhong Yue asked,
Where did Wei Xue God go? How did you kill him?


I didn’t kill him, the real Wei Xue God was the blood ocean.

Zhong Yue shook the lantern on his hand, kept it back into his Yuan Shen Secret Realm and said,
This blood ocean is also his divine weapon, but he forged his body into the divine weapon, merging it with the blood ocean. Thus, the blood ocean is him, and the divine weapon is also him. This is probably a technique of the Gui Shen Celestial Race. A Wei Xue God will emerge from the blood ocean if he wants to, killing that Wei Xue God will not work. As long as the blood ocean is still there, he will remain alive, and he would even be able to create another Wei Xue God.

Upon hearing Zhong Yue’s reply, Shi Buyi murmured,
No wonder he emerged from the blood ocean again after Feng Wuji crushed him. And here I thought he had cultivated some kind of immortal technique…..

Zhong Yue then retrieved a few divine herb’s leaves from his secret realm, giving them to Shi Buyi and said,
Wei Xue God’s attack is the weakest among the gods; it was not because he was weak but because after turning his body into the blood ocean, we are only fighting a part of him. However, he triumphed because of the blood ocean but he also lost because of his blood ocean. After I dealt with the blood ocean, he was dealt with by me as well.

Shi Buyi took over the leaves, quickly consuming them and started treated his injuries. As he treated himself, he couldn’t help but feel grateful towards Zhong Yue for not only saving him from Wei Xue God, but also giving him medicines to heal.
However, Shi Buyi suddenly realized something and thought, No! How can I feel grateful? This damn son of a bitch controlled my life with the puny insect, made me his mount and forced me to provoke Wei Xue God while he stood aside! Nothing he does will be able to redeem that! I will not be bought over that easily!

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue asked with concern,
How much did you gain from this battle? Can you achieve the Pure Yang Yuan Shen in one shot? If not, I can risk my life again and accompany you to challenge other gods to help you improve!

Once again, gratitude involuntarily rose within Shi Buyi’s heart, but he quickly reminded himself to not let his guard down.
I am not used to this, him being so nice to me all in a sudden…. Thought Shi Buyi as he still felt unhappy. But without realizing this himself, his impression of Zhong Yue had slightly changed.

In the West Barren, there should be one more god other than Zhu Jiumu. The problem is that I don’t know where is he hiding.

Zhong Yue thought for a moment and said,
And another god ran into the Kun Lun Realm. Other than them, there is a demon god in the demon land and two insect gods. They however, are all hiding. Wei Xue God was still manageable but these other gods out there are perhaps not people to be messed with. The hardest ones to be dealt with are probably the likes of Lord Kun, Lord Demon…

As soon as he thought of this, he sense something. He looked towards somewhere far away, he bowed and greeted,
How have you been, Senior Jiumu? Thank you for your help in helping me to guard Swords Gate during my absence.

The old and wizened Zhu Jiumu from the Zhu Jian Celestial Race walked towards Zhong Yue with a complicated expression,
I am fine, little Zhong Yue. I was just repaying your debt by guarding Swords Gate, but I never thought you could come back alive. Besides, the demon god was injured badly so there was actually no need for me.

Upon saying this, his expression turned even more complicated and said,
Little Zhong Yue, too many have died because of you. Wei Xue God did indeed sentence you to death when he forced you to go to the insect race, but you didn’t die in the end, did you? Is there a need for all of this? Wouldn’t it be wiser to let bygones be bygones?

Zhong Yue smiled and replied,
Senior Jiumu, when you advised them to not to force me into a corner like that as well, did they listen to you?

Zhu Jiumu was at a loss for words, but he soon sighed in understanding and replied,
Little Zhong Yue, I know you are a smart person. With you present, humanity will triumph as a great race on par with the celestial and demon races. As long as you are still here, the humans will remain strong. However, what do you think will happen if you insist on killing Wei Xue God now? How will the other races think?

Zhong Yue’s heart tigthened upon hearing Zhu Jiumu’s words as the latter continued saying,
They will think that once you grow strong enough, you will not spare the other races. You may even inadvertently force them to create an alliance to eliminate you! If you let Wei Xue God go now, no one will be able to stop the rise of humanity, but if you insist on the path of vengeance, then I’m afraid you will not walk out of the West Barren alive.

Shi Buyi immediately looked at Zhong Yue with worry.
Perhaps whatever Zhu Jiumu said was actually a message from the other races in the West Barren. Obviously, the other races had been paying attention to this battle and also knew that Zhong Yue had captured Wei Xue God!
Whatever Zhong Yue did so far had garnered the attention of the celestial races in West Barren; if he could capture Wei Xue God, then it meant that he could also rampage across the entire West Barren with disregard!
Thus, wouldn’t it be better for them to kill him before he had fully grown instead of waiting for him to destroy them?
After all, Zhong Yue was still killable right now, but once he became a god, then everything would change!
The reason why Zhu Jiumu came to advise Zhong Yue to let Wei Xue God go was because he was Zhong Yue’s friend.
However, if Zhong Yue refused to listen, then the celestial races in West Barren would team up to kill Zhong Yue at all costs!
At the same time, celestial rays shot up into the skies from the many celestial temples; there were also prayer voices everywhere as the celestial races all prayed to their gods!
Upon their calls, the godly spirits and divine weapons in their celestial temples woke up from their slumber and prepared to strike at once!
Obviously, beneath the many celestial temples were prayer rituals hosted by one high priest after another as they led their people!

Master Zhong Yue….
said Shi Buyi as he trembled slightly.
He was the lord of all monsters, he understood well how terrifying the situation would be if the many races in West Barren fully unveiled their power!
Zhong Yue, who also saw the celestial rays far away, also remained silent.
Zhu Jiumu coughed and said,
It is still alright if you stop now. They respect the strong so they will let you go if you stop right now. Only by staying alive will you ascend as one of the strongest in this world. You should know that the god of you humans once walked on the West Barren but he too, lost his life in the end as well….

Suddenly, Zhong Yue asked,
Senior Jiumu, if I am not wrong, we humans have been taken as food by these races out there for a very long time, yes?

Before the stunned Zhu Jiumu could react, Zhong Yue laughed and said loudly,
I will not let Wei Xue God go! I will cut down everyone you send after me! Everyone!

His voice got louder and louder until it began to even shake the skies,
I will now walk on the path the god of our human race had once walked! I await all of your arrivals!

Zhu Jiumu sighed and left as there was nothing he could do now.
Far away, a mighty voice echoed out and said,
Zhong Yue, your bravery and talent is no weaker to the Swords God from back then. I have to say that you have my deepest respect. With that being said, I will wait for you at the Divine Battlefield!
