Chapter 1088: The Good and Evil Sides
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Zhong Yue murmured softly,
And I was still wondering how Senior Martial Brother Feng could possibly let him walk away. Just as I thought, Senior Martial Brother Feng was prepared to capture a new prey for his research…
The experts were in remorse for not being able to witness the battle between Zhong Yue and Xuan Ji. On the other hand, it was fortunate that they couldn’t witness the battle or there wouldn’t be more than just a few who could still maintain their Dao hearts.
If they have seen the battle of two great monarchs battling in their strongest fortes, their confidence and will would have experienced an irreversible fall that would greatly hinder their cultivation progress!
As the General Assembly of Future Monarchs was drawing to a close, the 17,000 gods left one after another. Zhong Yue was at the gate, sending them off and promising another meeting in 100 years.
Everyone, in this time of chaos, stay safe!
Outside of the Heaven Breaching Fortress, Zhong Yue bowed and sent the experts off.
Yangguan Yuan laughed,
All you brats, if you see Yi Feng on the battlefield, I suggest you all lower your heads and surrender quickly. He treats us well now, but when on the battlefield, he would still show no mercy in killing us!
Qing Ruqu smiled and asked,
Then, what if it’s Brother Yuan that bumps into King Yi?
I’ll run and ask the seniors to kill him. I’ll never fight him, I’m not an idiot!
Yangguan Yuan laughed,
Lord Yi Feng, see you in another hundred years!
And the experts left.
Then, Zhong Yue turned around and looked at the five strangely looking experts that still hadn’t left. He smiled and asked,
Senior martial siblings, aren’t you leaving?
They were none other than Innate Evil Monarch’s disciple, Xie Yang; Innate Dark Monarch’s disciple, Mo Yuanlie; Innate Celestial Monarch’s disciple, Shen Xiage; Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciple, Zhuo Ya; and Feng Tian Origin Lord’s disciple, Feng Yuhuan.
The meeting of the future monarchs lasted for roughly a year. Throughout that time, the five of them had been staying in the Heaven Breaching Fortress, but they never got on stage and talked nor discussed and exchanged their ideas with the other experts, and they also didn’t use the Tian Pan.
Zhong Yue smiled,
Not joining in nor leaving, what are the five of you here for?
Xie Yang, Mo Yuanlie, and the others exchanged a look. Then, they looked up and saw the Heaven Breaching Fortress’s five monarch weapons and the Tian Pan already hovering above them. Even if they took action now, it would be almost impossible to take down Zhong Yue.
But they weren’t willing to leave just like this either.
Yin Fanxuan cleared her throat, she reminded them,
Senior martial siblings, is it your intent to stay here? Perhaps, you have forgotten about Imperial Emperor Xian Tian?
The five immediately understood her meaning and soon left the Heaven Breaching Fortress.
King Yi, let’s fight some other day!
Zhuo Ya’s voice could be heard from far as he was leaving.
Zhong Yue opened his Six Paths Reincarnation and his body suddenly shuddered. The humongous Six Paths Tian Lun sliced into his secret realms and Si Ming walked down from Tian Lun. She smiled while saying,
Zhong Yue, you should be back in the 3,000 Six Paths World now, no? I’m here to pick you up.
Gu Yue walked out of Zhong Yue’s body and headed toward the Six Paths Tian Lun. He smiled
For you to come and pick me, you have a purpose.
Si Ming chortled,
We are, after all, of the same clan. It’s natural that I come and pick you up. Why do you have to accuse me of having an ulterior motive? You think too little of me. However, I won’t mind reaping some benefits from this either.
Zhong Yue smiled,
I need more information on Heaven. Information that you didn’t mention in our last conversation. Why don’t we discuss and exchange some information we both know.
Si Ming grew serious, she asked solemnly,
What information do you have for me?
How about the ways to separate the four past bodies?
Rays flashed in Zhong Yue’s eyes and he answered.
Si Ming’s eyes lit up and she nodded. Then, Zhong Yue imparted her his understandings in the Dirt Body, Dao Body, Emotion Body, and Soul Body, he said,
I’ve already separated the Soul Body, who is Gu Yue. The Dirt Body requires a full unsealing of the Fuxi bloodline. The Dao Body needs me to cultivate my art to its peak. But the Emotion Body, I’m afraid I may not be able to achieve it.
Rays were brimming in Si Ming’s eyes, she mulled and said,
I can cultivate my Soul Body and Dirt Body, but the Dao Body and Emotion Body is a problem… But the information you provide is still very useful!
Zhong Yue said,
You’ve talked about the origin of Heaven, and he found out about another existence, the Heaven’s Monarch, that stood above him.
Si Ming continued the story,
After Heaven’s birth, the Heaven’s Monarch, who was also our Fuxi Clan’s monarch, Dao Venerate Fu Min, became his obstacle. Heaven is the highest form of life, the supreme being. He could not abide anything standing above it. He was born from the worships of the many living beings over many years, born with no face, no body, and no emotions. He is the supreme lifeform and his power is absolute. But the greatest power the living beings can ever imagine was Dao Venerate Fu Min’s power. Dao Venerate Fu Min was the strongest and the stood at the pinnacle of the living beings’ imagination of supreme power.
Zhong Yue nodded. Dao Venerate Fu Min was the progenitor of the Six Paths Reincarnation. He himself represented the limit of the era itself. This meant that the strongest that Heaven could hope to go was to merely be on par with Dao Venerate Fu Min’s, maybe even weaker.
After all, not many had seen Dao Venerate Fu Min at his peak power.
But even so, it was more than enough to bring Heaven to the level of the Dao Gods.
The Heaven in the living beings’ eyes was just. He rewarded good people and punished the wicked. He belonged to no celestial nor demon and stood as the only one of his kind. He is above the mortal worlds, he keeps the universe in a smooth operation and maintains its peace. But when the living beings experienced a downfall in their lives, they would also blame Heaven for turning a blind eye at their plight. Some even blamed Heaven for being the cause of it all. Thus, Heaven, who was born of the worships of the living beings, became no different to us, having his good and evil sides. How ironic, it’s the living beings that bestowed him everything and eventually made him into their ruler!
Si Ming continued,
He maintains the universe’s operation, but also uses it to eliminate his enemies. The perfect Heaven in the living beings’ hearts was never perfect since his birth. Ever since he was brought to life, he was consumed by desire, the first of which was to eliminate the one who stood above him.
Zhong Yue was greatly shocked. Moments later, he heaved a long breath and asked,
Dao Venerate Fu Min’s death, it had something to do with Heaven?
More than you can imagine. Including our Fuxi Celestial Race’s extinction, Heaven played a huge role.
Si Ming replied,
I’m still searching for the truth in the lost history, but I haven’t uncovered much yet. The pieces are too scrambled and it is difficult to piece them together. For now, this is all I know.
Zhong Yue nodded, and Gu Yue walked up on the Six Paths Tian Lun.
Si Ming activated the Tian Lun and suddenly, her voice turned soft and she said,
Live on. You are my last clansman, I still want to resurrect our clan.
Zhong Yue was shocked and couldn’t help but feel strange over the implication of her words, let alone her sudden change in demeanor toward him. But before he could reply, the Six Paths Tian Lun shivered and disappeared from his Yuan Shen secret realms.
Peace once again returned to the Heaven Breaching Fortress. The generals continued training their armies and Hundun Yu also took his leave, he said,
King Yi, I have to return to the Hundun Clan and ask for a Chaos Divine Fruit from the grand ancestor.
Feng Mingshan also left, he said,
Initially, I thought I was on par with mister’s prowess, but now it seems that I’ve been deluding myself. I plan to rebuild the Tian Feng Sovereign Race. But I have to steal a Wutong Tree from the Heavenly Fire Barren Region before then, and also to see if I can gather a few of my junior martial siblings to follow me.
Zhong Yue nodded, he replied,
Be safe.
Soon, Zhong Yue, Yin Fanxuan, Jin Hexi, Yi Wanjun, Shi Yinji, Moon God, and the others cast up Tian Pan and used its ability to help them improve their cultivations.
When the ladies saw Moon God, even Yin Fanxuan felt embarrassed and inferior over her own appearance. The only one who was unaffected was Yi Wanjun as she was a unique lady who didn’t fuss over her appearance much.
The Tian Pan now was not the same before. After the meeting, it had grown to a tremendous degree.
However, compared to the brain Tian Yi that could predict the future, the Tian Pan could only run its calculations on the cultivation-related matters. It was still far inferior to Tian Yi.
I wonder if it can calculate and derive the Heavenly Daos?
Zhong Yue had already merged the [Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils] into his [Innate Eight Trigrams], incorporating it into the same cultivation art. He thought, If it can calculate the Heavenly Daos and merge it into the [Innate Eight Trigrams], one of my [Innate Eight Trigrams]’s hardest problems will be solved.
The Heavenly Daos were the hardest to derive. He could go to Goddess Shen Hou for the other Daos like the Innate Earth Dao and Innate Water Dao and she would be able to provide him with the respective cultivation arts. But the Innate Mountain Dao and Innate Lake Dao required him to acquire them on his own. And as for the Innate Wind Dao, the Fuxi Clan had used the element of wind as their war song, it wasn’t hard to acquire the Innate Wind Dao.
The first Fuxi, Monarch Pao Xi’s cultivation art was wind-aligned. It was known as the [Wind and Cloud Heavenly Crane Heart Scripture]. Xin Huo had the complete art of it with him.
…
Feng Mingshan was on his way, almost leaving the Imperial Star when a voice could be heard from behind,
Junior Martial Brother Mingshan, wait!
Feng Mingshan quickly stopped and saw a white lady traveling down from the Heavenly River. She was plump and curvaceous, and her voice was sweet. Feng Mingshan was startled to see her and he bowed in greeting,
Senior Martial Sister Yuhuan.
Feng Yuhuan waved her hand and she smiled,
Junior Martial Brother Mingshan, I saw you in the Heaven Breaching Fortress but didn’t dare to get close to you in fear that my affairs with King Yi will bring you to his attention. Where have you been all these years? The grand ancestor has missed you!
Feng Mingshan shook his head, he replied in mixed feelings,
Anywhere, everywhere. Senior Martial Sister Yuhuan, why did you leave the Heavenly Fire Barren Region to the Imperial Star? I’ve seen you in the Heaven Breaching Fortress too, you came as one of the representatives of the Heaven Court, didn’t you? When did the Heavenly Fire Barren Region and Heaven Court become so close?
Feng Yuhuan replied solemnly,
Grand ancestor sent me to capture King Yi alive and return him to the Heavenly Fire Barren Region! It was a coincidence bumping into Shen Xiage and the others, our Heavenly Fire Barren Region has no relation with the Heaven Court. Junior martial brother, since you are also here, why don’t we return together.
Feng Mingshan ignored her invitation, he said,
King Yi is now in the Heaven Breaching Fortress, his forces are strong, five monarch weapons and countless gods are all under his command. If senior martial sister offends him, he will not let you go.
Feng Yuhuan chortled,
Of course I won’t go and offend him easily. Grand ancestor said, Heavenly Monarch Jin is one of her distant disciples, she sent me to find Heavenly Monarch Jin and request for his people’s to capture King Yi.
Then, senior martial sister, please be careful.
Feng Mingshan didn’t stop her, he said,
It’s been a long while, it’s time I return to the Heavenly Fire Barren Region now and greet the grand ancestor. Do forgive me for being unable to accompany you.
Feng Yuhuan reminded him,
The grand ancestor is not the Heavenly Fire Barren Region now, she is out to visit some old friends. You won’t see her even after you’ve returned.
A ray of light flashed in Feng Mingshan’s eyes, he smiled,
Then I will wait for her to return in the Heavenly Fire Barren Region. Senior martial sister, please excuse me!
As soon as he finished, he turned and left immediately.
Feng Yuhuan saw him away and was puzzled, Mingshan had always been happy to see me, but why did he feel so distant all of a sudden now? In the Heaven Breaching Fortress, he also didn’t come and greet me… What is that?
A look of shock radiated across her face. A spoon-like chariot was riding in the bottom of the Heavenly River at a great speed. A faceless man was on the chariot and he was lashing out a barrage of attacks to the back.
Behind, a god was madly chasing after the chariot in high spirits!
The two were extremely strong, their powers rumbled the Heavenly River and shuddered the star clouds. It was a beautiful scene to watch.
What a strong presence! It’s him, Heaven’s disciple who goes by the name of Xuan Ji and the one who challenged King Yi! But who is that? To corner him so badly?
