Chapter 601 - Cries of Heaven

Chapter 601 – Cries of Heaven
Shi Buyi’s heart suddenly throbbed with shock as he realized that he had been acting too egregiously and was afraid that Zhong Yue would renege on his words and seal the monster race as well. Shi Buyi quickly smiled and gave a dry laugh,
I’m just joking, don’t take it too seriously, it’s really just a joke! Speaking of which, we are leaving after the ritual, aren’t we? Has Master Zhong left a few seeds of yours behind?

Zhong Yue was puzzled, he asked,
Why do you ask?

Shi Buyi then laughed in reply,
To be frank, I’ve selected and impregnated a few lioness so that the Nine Headed Lion will not go extinct after I leave. Hehehe, I have nine heads, surely I have selected nine lioness. Did Master Zhong do the deed with a few human girls?

Zhong Yue was between laughter and tear, he cleared his throat and asked,
You really plan to leave with me?

Shi Buyi’s face changed drastically, he exclaimed,
Aren’t you going to threaten me to leave with you?

Zhong Yue was puzzled,
Big lion, since when did I say I was going to do that?

Various expressions flitted across Shi Buyi’s face, and he probed a few moments later,
So, you are planning to kill me before you leave? Although I am your mount, that doesn’t mean I won’t fight back for my life!


What makes you think so?
Zhong Yue asked curiously.

Isn’t it obvious that you will surely kill me if I don’t follow you away!? Among the humans, only you alone can suppress me; after you leave, who do you think in the human race can even stand before my aura?
Shi Buyi gave a cold hum,
That’s why you will either bring me along with you, or kill me to prevent future dangers! Don’t try to lie to me!

However, Zhong Yue shook his head upon hearing it,
Shi Buyi, you are overthinking it. You’ve helped me many times, and I am not a man who mistreats those who have helped me before. If you are willing to leave with me, you are more than welcomed to follow; but if you want to stay, I will not stop you either. Warriors were not born in peace and harmony, they only rise from blood and metal. The humans are in need of a strong opponent like you to temper themselves; only in the face of adversity can humanity grow stronger.

Shi Buyi was bewildered, he asked again in disbelief,
If I really don’t follow, you really won’t kill me?

Zhong Yue shook his head in affirmation.
Shi Buyi instantly turned to leave, but stopped a second later. He turned back and said while smiling,
You are lying to me, aren’t you? You will surely kill me if I stay, am I right? You can’t kill me now exactly because I have lent you help many times; however, if I decide to stay, you will then have the right reason to kill me! Hmph, cheeky bastard, I will not fall for that!

Zhong Yue sighed speechlessly. Shi Buyi was too cynical; he even doubted a genuine chance given to free himself from Zhong Yue’s control, even insisting to stay as a mount and follow Zhong Yue instead.
The more you think, the more opportunities will slip away from your fingers. Huh? Zhong Yue suddenly tilted his head and listened. Immediately, a bright smile spread across his face, and he took out the copper lamp, placing it on the center of the altar.

The Great Ritual of Sealing Abdication may commence now! Lion, Xuan Yuan, guard the perimeter!

His divine third eye opened, and three godly rays brimmed in his divine eyes. However, they were not shot out but continued brewing brighter.
One side was bright like the sun, the other smooth like the moon, and the third eye shaped like a golden willow leaf.
As time passed by, his aura grew stronger. Totem patterns emerged around him in various forms of legendary beasts—the dragons, phoenixes, White Tigers, Black Tortoises, Vermilion Birds and many others!
Six light wheels were revolving around him, with the Pan Gu God sitting in his Dao Yu Yuan Shen secret realm; there were also the faint figures of the ancient gods, worshipping at Zhong Yue in the center!
Then, all of the heteromorphisms were consolidated into two scrolls, which turned into two sabers right after. The sabers were pure white and pitch black in color each, representing Yin and Yang respectively. When the two sabers merged together, an enormously huge【Tai Chi Art】was formed.
The【Tai Chi Art】slowly descended down, covering the whole mountain; it fell onto the ground and radially extended three thousand miles out from the mountain!
Then, an inner core hovered up into the sky, it formed a dome above the【Tai Chi Art】and covered the whole mountain within.
The Nine Revolving Inner Core’s Force Field, Celestial Demon Tai Chi Force Field!
On the mountain summit, Shi Buyi and Gongsun Xuanyuan stood behind Zhong Yue. They glanced around and saw many altars emerging out of nowhere around the mountain. On the altars, there were many gods with each of them originating from a different race!
The visualized figures of the many gods just showed how amazing Zhong Yue’s cultivation technique was, nearly covering all the forms of the gods in it!
Other than that, they could also see the Yin Qi sinking to the bottom of the ground while the Yang Qi floating up into the sky. The Yin and Yang revolved continuously, forming the figure of a godly fish—the Yin Yang Fish.
The Yin Yang Fish was bigger than the Kun Peng, so huge it could easily bite a hole in the sky.
Then, a scorching sun rose within the Yin Qi but was gnawed away by a visualized Kun; while a bright moon fell from the Yang Qi and was eaten away by a second visualized Kun.
These two visualized huge fishes then swam around the Black Mountain. They had no physical bodies, seeming to take on an ethereal form between liquid and gas.
Meanwhile, the Nine Revolving Inner Core flew toward Zhong Yue with the Fuxi celestial being in it growing to over ten thousand feet tall, and it merged with his mortal body and Yuan Shen.
In that instant, Shi Buyi felt as though Zhong Yue was now part of the Black Mountain altar. He was now the altar, possessing the unearthly power of heaven and earth!
Behind him, the six Yuan Shen secret realms opened up together, and unleash their powers to their limits!

Power of the Heaven and Earth!
Zhong Yue chanted softly, and the powers within him consolidated into one piece. A whirlpool of spiritual energy was formed right above him, pumping the purest energy from the heaven and earth into his body and into the altar!
Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed across the sky. Suddenly, the spiritual energy in the whirlpool grew so dense that it started blasting down onto the Black Mountain like a beam of light!
On the mountain body, the totem patterns engraved all across the rocks glimmered as though they were coming to life. The totem patterns started shifting with an inexplicably marvelous marvelous rhythm. At the same time, Zhong Yue’s arcane energy and psyche was forcibly enhanced under the effects of the overabundant spiritual energy.
Krong—
Finally, the Great Ritual of Sealing Abdication was activated, the heaven and earth was worshipped in the ancient ritual with the Black Mountain acting as the altar.
One of the most obvious effects of the ritual was the exponential growth of everything around it — the Black Mountain rose, the trees surrounded it become sturdier, and the waters flowed with an increased vigor.
Zhong Yue morphed into the Fuxi True Form ten thousand feet tall, his tail was coiling around the mountain summit, and he was looking down at the center of the altar from above while the Yin Fish and Yang Fish were swimming around him.
It was truly a stunning scene!
Zhong Yue’s current prowess was now beyond the monster god Shi Buyi. However, this was not his true strength, it was merely the power borrowed from the heaven and earth to proceed with the great ritual!
All of a sudden, Zhong Yue raised a finger at the copper lamp, and the lamp lid opened. A godly spirit dashed out of the copper lamp while shouting loudly,
Brat, you’ve suppressed us for far too long, it’s time to pay for what you’ve done!

But, Zhong Yue didn’t even look at him. As soon as the godly spirit exited the copper lamp, he was instantly torn disintegrated into the purest form of energy, and absorbed by the Black Mountain altar!
Even his Yuan Shen was decomposed, robbing him of all his chances for resurrection!

You dare let us out? Are you planning to die?
Another godly spirit dashed out only to suffer the same fate as the previous unfortunate godly spirit.
Shi Buyi was astounded until the fear began to settle in as his body started shuddering in terror!
The godly spirits flew out from the copper lamp, but none could last even a second before they were disintegrated into the purest forms of energy and offered to the ritual.
Each and every godly spirit was equivalent to an incredible amount of spiritual energy, that greatly boosted the power of the grand ritual.
The wind blew more forcefully in the sky, and blood rain started to fall.
Thunders was all that could be heard for hundreds of miles, and the blood rain baptized the entire Ancestral Star in red, even the icefields to the far north.
It was the cries of heaven.
The thunders were the sobs, and the blood rain were its tears.
The heaven was crying for the future generations, for the hardship of the sealed lives in the future.
In the Zhu Jian Celestial Race, Wen Changgong and Zhu Jiumu walked out of the temple. They looked up toward the rumbling thunder and raining blood.
They could feel a strange force lingering in the heaven and earth, a form of energy that was completely unknown to them.

Senior Martial Brother Jiumu!
Wen Changgong shouted,
The human Zhong Yue is an ambitious opponent. Why do you think he wants to captures so many godly spirits? Why do you think he needs to capture Wei Xue God? He is planning to offer them to the heaven and earth!

He stood in the blood rain with a face of fury,
I don’t know why is he doing that or what he is trying to achieve. But I sure do know that it will be nothing good for the celestial race! This is just the start of the ritual, and the heaven and earth has already crying! Who will be able to stop him once he’s finished the worship?

Zhu Jiumu’s expression was changing incessantly. Feng Wuji, who was lurking in the dark, decided to give him a final push,
You’d remember the goods he has done and is even willing to reward him, but he might not think the same of you! If you don’t stop him now, then even the Zhu Jian Celestial Race will go extinct!

Zhu Jiumu walked out of the temple, he bathed himself in the rain of blood as he looked up. There, Feng Wuji was hovering in mid-air like a faint specter, while on his back him was a huge shadow.
It was Lord Kun.

Zhu Jiumu
another voice said. Demonic Qi billowed over, and a thousand bladed demonic trees rose from the ground. It was Lord Demon’s weapon.
The Asura demon god Tuz Bawk was standing in front of the demon tree, with Lord Demon himself on the tree’s crown.

The gods of the Ancestral Star are just left with the few of you, if you don’t stop him now, then Zhong Yue will wash this planet clean with the blood of his enemies!
Lord Demon said frigidly,
Now, he has literally started washing the Ancestral Star with his enemies’ blood!
