Chapter 511 – You Are Overestimating Your Own Capabilities
Niu Jindou was shocked while Zhong Yue took a sidestep and blazing fire abruptly burned in the surrounding. In the next second, Niu Jindou found Zhong Yue standing right in front of him and without even a split second of hesitation, he tilted his head and swung the two divine gold feelers at Zhong Yue like whips.
As Zhong Yue moved his fingers and flicked on the incoming feelers, the two whip like divine gold feelers lashed back as if they were electrocuted.
Niu Jindou opened his claws, and with four arms together, struck at Zhong Yue at an insane clip. Meanwhile, the cicada-like wings on his back spread out and cut through the air like invisible sabers, slashing at Zhong Yue.
But Zhong Yue remained calm. He engaged the insect magnate in close quarter combat, casting the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】effortlessly. His every movement resembled profound skills.
Clawing his fingers down, it’d be like a bell slamming down from the sky. Clenching his fist, a sun would appear in his hands, and when he flipped his hands up, a moon would rise in the air. Yin and Yang, Celestial and Demon… all sort of elements revolved in his hands and were directed toward .on the insect magnate.
This was the【Yin Yang Celestial Demon Style】, a skill he created during his battle with Bi Xie.
In that battle, he found his weakness in the lacking of quick-reflex skills and thus, created the【Yin Yang Celestial Demon Style】. The opponent this skill was created for was no longer living, but the skill continued to grow evolve as Zhong Yue’s insights and cultivation grew.
It was called a ‘style’ because this skill was like a style of martial art. An elegant fusion of speed, power, and efficiency that resulted in a nonpareil frontal combat fighting style.
Especially the energy efficiency part; Zhong Yue was now lacking of divine herbs and needed to save his arcane energy as much as possible. Thus, the【Yin Yang Celestial Demon Style】was his best choice.
Every strike was like a flash of lightning and evoke the power of a tumultuous ocean. Niu Jindou responded with force, but no matter how hard he tried, Zhong Yue was able to counter the attacks and hit back harder.
Niu Jindou released a shrill cry and his compound eyes lit up, blasting out a beam of light at Zhong Yue.
Zhong Yue placed his wrist together and opened up his palms like a mirror. In the hand mirror, the image of a Tai Chi revolved rapidly and the light beam was reflected back upon striking the middle of the palms.
Niu Jindou cried in pain as his body was struck by his own light beam attack.
Wong——
The Tai Chi Force Field expanded out and covered the insect magnate in it. Niu Jindou was shocked and bolted out to escape for his life. But suddenly, the Yin and Yang Qi plummeted down from the sky and crashed right on his body, pushing him down to the ground.
Niu Jindou whimpered in pain, he fought against the Yin and Yang Qi with sheer strength and crawled away on the ground.
Hu——
The celestial and demon Qi cascaded down from the sky and crashed onto Niu Jindou’s body. Blood streamed down from his mouth and his limbs trembled. He was nearly made into a pancake on the ground.
“You want to suppress me? Keep on dreaming, brat! We, the Longicorn Golden King Race, are the strongest among whole insect race!” Niu Jindou swallowed his own blood back in the mouth and roared, “UP!!”
In a burst of strength, Niu Jindou stood up from the ground and moved forward step after step. Forcibly withstanding the Yin,Yang, celestial, and demon Qi of the Nine Revolving Tai Chi Inner Core Force Field. The Longicorn Golden King Race’s formidable strength was certainly showcased in this display!
Suddenly, the blazing sun in the force field descended down on his back and the bright moon fell down as well.
Niu Jindou knelt on the ground, his jaws were clenched so hard that his teeth were on the verge of breaking. He didn’t even have the energy to pant for breath anymore.
Zhong Yue placed his hand forward and the Tai Chi Force Field shrunk into an inner core back in his hands. Inside of the inner core, Niu Jindou was suppressed so hard he couldn’t even move an inch at all.
Zhong Yue swiped his hand across the inner core and Niu Jindou’s mortal body shuddered violently and nearly exploded. Niu Jindou smirked and said, “Human, you can’t kill me! My mortal body is forged from the divine golds and the Golden King totem patterns protect me all over from the mortal body to the Yuan Shen. Even after capturing me, you still can’t kill me!”
“I didn’t want to kill you anyway, I just need to weaken your Yuan Shen and cultivation base.” Zhong Yue answered, he swiped his hand across the inner core again.
Niu Jindou’s body shuddered even harder and the Golden King totem patterns started to crack already, causing his heart to thump in fear.
Zhong Yue swiped his hand again and the Golden King totem patterns continued to fragment even further. By now, Niu Jindou’s heart was already fully overtaken by terror.
Oh no, my totem patterns are too damaged, my Yuan Shen…, Just as he was thinking about it, Zhong Yue flicked a finger on the inner core.
A wave of dizziness struck hard Niu Jindou’s mind, his Yuan Shen was impaired as if a divine sword struck right on it.
Zhong Yue flicked the finger for a few times, Niu Jindou’s Yuan Shen cultivation base was nearly reduced to half his peak level.
“【Worship of Gods】!” Zhong Yue mumbled.
Nine demon gods emerged around the Nine Revolving Inner Core and bowed down at it. A grand altar appeared below Niu Jindou in the inner core.
“Don’t you dare!” Although Niu Jindou couldn’t think too quick now, he still knew Zhong Yue wanted to refine him into a Gu insect. He shouted, “I am a True Spirit magnate, a great cultivator and you are just a tiny…”
The nine demon gods bowed at the Nine Revolving Inner Core again while Niu Jindou continued cursing, “You a trivial Heavenly Dharma cultivator, scum from a race of slaves…”
Zhong Yue fully ignored his curses and continued the process placidly.
Niu Jindou’s voice continued to turn softer and slower. Eventually, the Longicorn insect magnate was like a puppet, having no signs of thoughts and consciousness in him anymore.
After a long time, clarity returned to Niu Jindou’s eyes, his aura and prowess slowly recovered as well. He lowered his head down and said with deference, “My master…”
Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief, he extricated the insect magnate from the inner core and Niu Jindou stood imposingly by his side like a loyal bodyguard.
On the other side of the battlefield, Bo Xun was fighting with the other insect magnate. The two opponents were equally matched and the battle turned into a stalemate. With a thought, Niu Jindou bolted out and pinned the insect magnate on the ground.
Without doubt, the insect magnate couldn’t escape from the destiny of being refined by Bo Xun as well.
Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes, and he searched through Niu Jindou’s and the other insect magnate’s memories for a better understanding on Princess Jin Xiu and the other insect Qi Practitioners. After knowing who they all were, Zhong Yue’s heart thumped solemnly.
This Niu Jindou can fight with me for so long and I still thought he is a notable Qi Practitioner among the insect race. Yet, who knew he was only rank 60th among all of the insect Qi Practitioners!
Zhong Yue’s face changed continuously. Niu Jindou’s was so strong that even Zhong Yue had to spend some time to take him down. For the other 60 insect magnates, it would be even harder for Zhong Yue to handle them!
He was still able to defeat three at a time but to handle over 60 of them, even Zhong Yue would be killed for sure.
Not only that, bt they were also many Imminent Deity insect magnates, none of whom were easy targets to deal with. In the crowd of insect experts that were after them, there were already 24 Imminent Deity insect magnates, all of whom were from the Golden King Race!
Other than these Imminent Deity magnates, there were also 10 True Spirit insect magnates that he had to be careful of, one of the 10 was that Princess Jin Xiu!
But even Princess Jin Xiu was only the eighth among the ten. The other seven True Spirit magnates were even stronger than her.
These ten True Spirit magnates were known as the insect planet Ten Little Saints, they were said to have the potential to ascend into the deityhood!
In Niu Jindou’s memory of the Ten Saints, the strongest of all ten was the moon core armored Fuxi lady, the one who called herself Si Ming!
So her name is Si Ming. But why is she helping the insect race? Why does she want to invade and destroy the Ancestral Star? Zhong Yue thought and questioned in his heart.
Moments later, he recollected his thoughts and wiped her image from his mind. His arcane energy surged out and kept Bo Xun and the two insect magnates into his Yuan Shen secret realms while he bolted out after Princess Jin Xiu’s trails.
Considering the state that Senior Martial Brother Fang, Senior Martial Brother Gu Hongzi, and the others are in now, there is no way they can escape Princess Jin Xiu and the other insect experts. Bo Xun and I, in addition to Niu Jindou and the other insect magnate are also not enough to stop the insect experts.
Zhong Yue was traveling at an increasingly fast speed, but his expression remained placid as usual.
A distance of 1000 miles was traversed in just a few moments. Although Princess Jin Xiu and the others were quick, Zhong Yue was faster than them!
The faster he went, the softer his aura became. He pulled back his aura into his body and elevated his speed up another level.
On the dark side of the insect planet where no light shone upon, sparks of lightning occasionally illuminated small areas of land. This was a byproduct of the friction between Zhong Yue’s body against the air.
The lightning sparks were initially sparked less than a mile away from him but as his speed continually increased, the lightning radius started to grow as well. In just a few moments, everywhere within a 10,000 mile radius of him became a lightning field!
The lightning area was moving on the insect planet surface as Zhong Yue shot out in a straight line. From the high sky, it looked as if a shining lightning ball was moving on the ground in the dark night.
Princess Jin Xiu and the others were hunting for their preys and suddenly, there were the Imminent Deity magnates that sensed the change in atmosphere behind them. They raised their heads and when they looked back, they saw the lightning sparking behind chasing after them.
Soon enough as they looked back, the other insect experts noticed it as well. They were all shocked to see the sudden appearance of a lightning area behind them.
“What is that? It’s fast!” Princess Jin Xiu frowned.
There were lightnings sparkling up the dark sky, but sounds of thunder rumbling couldn’t be heard. Clearly, whatever it was, it was traveling at a speed even faster than sound, which would explain why the sound of thunder couldn’t be heard at all.
Suddenly, when it was a few dozen miles away from them, the course of the lightning area took a sharp turn to the side and bolted away from them. It bolted out for a few hundred miles before settling on an ice mountain.
Then, wave after wave of deafening thunder attacked the ears of the insect experts. Lightning flashed in the night sky and a silhouette became vaguely discernable at the summit of the ice mountain, but it disappeared from their visions again as the lightning stopped.
“Zhong Yue!” Lang Qingyun was able to recognize the expert immediately even though what was they saw was just a faint silhouette.
“Zhong Yue? How did he catch up to us?” Princess Jin Xiu mumbled curiously and suddenly raised her voice, “Oh no! Niu Jindou must’ve been killed by him! But why didn’t he run but come after us instead? Is he planning to fight with us all on his own?”
Over 200 insect experts were bewildered before suddenly bursting out in laughter.
On the tip of that ice mountain, Zhong Yue released Niu Jindou and the insect magnate from his Yuan Shen secret realms. Niu Jindou crawled on the ground and turned into the 10,000 feet Longicorn on the ground.
The other insect magnate also cast out his tall and muscular Avatar, making Zhong Yue look like a tiny insect below the two huge giants’ feet.
His clothes were fluttering against the wind, and his face was stiffened up. This was his final attempt to stop Princess Jin Xiu and the other insect experts.
Princess Jin Xiu squinted her eyes and gazed at Zhong Yue through the darkness, but it was too dark she couldn’t clearly see what’s there. She shook her head and sneered coldly, she said, “Brat, you are overestimating your own capabilities.”
