As soon as he was done talking, the eerie voice sounded out again, “Show myself? I’ve always been by your side, and you’re telling me that you can’t see me?”
“Right next to me?”
Zhong Yue got goosebumps and when he looked downwards again, the scene of Jun Sixie, Qiu Jin’er and Chi Xue being tortured entered his vision again before the three ladies and the prison cages turned blurry and disappeared, leaving behind only a gigantic shadow.
Then, breaths could be heard behind his head and cold breath blew onto his neck.
Zhong Yue stiffened up immediately as he clearly felt that the strange lady was standing right behind him.
“Now you know?”
The eerie voice sounded again and this time, she giggled, “I’ve been behind you all the while. I walked when you walked and I stopped when you stopped. The footsteps you heard were soft and what you saw was also my shadow. Those things just now were techniques hidden within my shadow and they showed you the secrets buried deep in your heart.”
“Then why don’t you just attack and kill me?” asked Zhong Yue with a sore voice.
The voice giggled right away and she replied, “Oh, I could never bring myself to kill you, my child! You are my dearest child and mother loves you so much!”
Zhong Yue dashed forward in an instant and after moving forward for a fifty miles away, he turned around only to see a huge shadow flying towards him while dancing strangely. He was stunned for a second and he shouted, “Mother Ghost of Hundred Children?”
The gigantic shadow that was charging towards him was a pregnant lady and she had arms like spider legs. Her chest was left exposed and her face was twisted to a grotesque degree.
There were countless faces on her pregnant stomach and these faces were still breathing, blinking, and even yawning and they came in different ages; young men and ladies, white-haired old men, pretty and mature women, and even burly men. The scene was beyond horrible!
The Mother Ghost of Hundred Children!
Zhong Yue once witnessed the technique of Mother Ghost of Hundred Children back in the Ancestral Star. It was the technique of the Gui Shen Celestial Race, but he never thought that he would see the techniques’ origin right here!
And this Mother Ghost of Hundred Children has cultivated into the level of Deity Emperor, she was a ghost emperor from the Gui Shen Celestial Race!
Upon seeing Zhong Yue turned around, Mother Ghost of Hundred Children stopped right away and as she giggled, she covered her face and said, “The child thinks that his mum is ugly! You surely wouldn’t want to recognize me as your mother anymore when I’m so ugly! Don’t be afraid, come to mother and let mother stuff you back into mother’s stomach then you wouldn’t have to see mother’s ugly face!”
Zhong Yue’s expression turned gloomy at her words and seconds later, he burst out laughing and he said, “Stop your foolish act! Those faces on your stomach are those Qi Practitioners that you have eaten alive, I presume?”
“I’m not acting foolish.”
Mother Ghost of Hundred Children covered her face with her sleeves and half of her gruesome face snuck out from the back from her sleeves. She acted like a very polite and gentle woman and said with a nice voice, “They are mother’s child all the while. They did not want me anymore because of how ugly I am so mother stuff them back into my stomach so that they wouldn’t leave me! Dear child, come back to my stomach and together, we shall never be separated anymore.”
Her voice became extremely motherly that she could convince someone that she really was their mother and unknowingly made victims fell for her trick.
Zhong Yue’s mind went blank and he felt like his long-gone mother was reaching out to him. As he walked towards the call of his mother mindlessly, he suddenly had a shock and right after he visualized Sui Sovereign, he swiped away the ghostly Qi around him and cleared his empty mind.
This time, when he looked around, what appeared in front of him was a bloodied huge mouth instead of his long-gone mother!
Mother Ghost of Hundred Children was standing in front of him god knows how long ago; on her stomach was a huge mouth with hooks and this mouth on her belly squeezed the other faces to the side and waited for Zhong Yue to enter the mouth!
Zhong Yue backed off immediately and when he prayed, the countless demons and gods appeared, each surrounded the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art]’s altar and they all bowed!
The [Worship of Gods]!
Boom—
Mother Ghost of Hundred Children was sent flying away right away and she fell right back into the darkness before she wailed, “It hurts! You’ve hurt mother and your brothers and sisters! You foolish child, I will eat you! I will consume you alive!”
Her voice moved swiftly within the darkness and it made it insanely difficult for Zhong Yue to pinpoint her position.
Zhong Yue’s expression turned gloomy and when he shook his head, heads started growing from his neck, each facing at different directions and arms grew out from his armpit as he prepared for the imminent fierce battle.
Mother Ghost of Hundred Children is not someone to be taken lightly as she still remained almost unscathed after receiving my attack. She might even be able to beat me.
Zhong Yue started moving towards the deeper part of the Abyss and he thought, Her skills are strange and full of surprises, which makes them almost impossible to predict…. That’s another tough fight for me….
He was not confident in being able to triumph against this Mother Ghost of Hundred Children!
“Hehehehe, my son, do you not want to see your love?” giggled Mother Ghost of Hundred Children. Her sound came from everywhere in the darkness and this time, her voice even overwhelmed the sound of the Abyss, which furthermore proved how powerful she is.
“I can show them to you.”
This time, instead of just front, back, left and right, her voice came from fifty over other positions!
Zhong Yue looked around quickly and all he could see was just plain darkness and the pitiful light emitted by the light bridge.
Then, Mother Ghost of Hundred Children’s voice came from more than a hundred directions, “Mother is not going to get angry at you for beating mother. Just come back to mother’s stomach and mother will let you stay with your love forever. Hehehehehe….”
Zhong Yue however, did not flinch and when he saw the prison that imprisoned King Geng, King Geng was being held on a rack where his neck, arms and legs were tied up and being dissected by two little imps.
The imps had huge saws in their hands and each time they swung their saws, King Geng’s body would be cut into pieces.
Though King Geng was imprisoned within the cage that was built for the Deity Emperors and Creators, his strength was far inferior to the Deity Emperors, let alone the Creators. Thus, even if the imps were not able to do anything to the Deity Emperors and Creators, they could still be able to deal with King Geng easily.
And for King Geng, as someone who had cultivated the Immortal Body, his body will regenerate each time after being severed but the pain that came along was inevitable and this would not stop as long as the imps continued!
Meanwhile, upon discovering the location of King Geng, Zhong Yue felt slightly relieved but at the next second, a face descended from the darkness above him while the face giggled, “So you are together with this traitor!”
Zhong Yue looked up and right away, he found that particular face very familiar and he quickly realized that it was one of the faces on the belly of Mother Ghost of Hundred Children!
“Are you trying to commit treason?” asked another face that floated out from the dark curiously.
“Why did you hurt mother? Mother is mad now!” shouted an old face behind Zhong Yue, “You traitorous fool!”
Around Zhong Yue, one face after another emerged and surrounded him.
Upon seeing these faces, Zhong Yue’s eyes twitched as he realized that these faces were the faces of the many gods, even including two Deity Emperors!
Now, he finally understood why and how did the voice of Mother Ghost of Hundred Children managed to sound at the same time from different positions; she was actually speaking through the souls of these deceased strong Qi Practitioners!
Thank god there are only faces, not bodies….
As soon as he thought of this, his face turned green when naked bodies started walking out from the dark as if they were newborns; each of them was not only naked but also covered in a sticky liquid as if they had just come out of the womb!
These walking bodies had no faces as well!
Then, they reached their hands out, grabbed onto the faces around the light bridge and stuck them onto their faceless faces. After adjusting themselves, they corrected their misplaced eyes, ears, nose, and mouth but they all still looked slightly deformed.
These were those who got eaten by Mother Ghost of Hundred Children and after she gave birth to these soulless bodies, they would immediately be pumped into these bodies and retrieve their own faces.
These gods and demons roared as they swarmed Zhong Yue while shouting furiously, “How dare you hurt mother! Now, let your brothers and sisters teach you how to show some respect for mother!”
On the other hand, the three-legged double winged celestial being emerged on top of Zhong Yue’s head and when he swung a banner, the Six Path Reincarnations appeared on the banner and the gods shrieked before their souls flew right into the Six Soul Baner!
Their soulless bodies then fell from the air with only the two Deity Emperors who had abnormally strong souls preserved.
At the same time, the three-legged six-eyed celestial being of Zhong Yue emerged; it was the Innate Starry Toad True Spirit. It channeled the immense power in it and the power turned into an altar and along with the Six Soul Banner, the bodies were sent into the altar and they all got sacrificed.
The two spirits then roared together, activated the altar and converted everything into fearful power with totem carvings before turning the power into two shart cones!
The [Mystic Dao Breaker]!
Behind Zhong Yue, light wheels emerged while rotating quickly and the Six Path Reincarnations traveled through the lights wheels quickly while surrounding the Pan Gu Celestial.
With a battle cry, Zhong Yue pushed his hands, sending his attacks out against the two celestial emperors while he shouted, “King Geng, I will get you out for sure!”
Hong long—-
The two celestial emperors finally clashed with his attacks and Zhong Yue immediately got pushed back; his internal organs and totem carvings were all messed up under the extreme impact and they were on the brink of breaking!
Zhong Yue opened his Bloodline Wheel and his Yuan Shen and body’s bloodline merged together and they too, were bleeding!
The two celestial emperors then charged at him again, and this time, Zhong Yue let out a long shout before he gathered up his full strength to resist and keep the [Mystic Dao Breaker] from shattering.
Clash after clash left Zhong Yue full of injuries everywhere but he still prevented the [Mystic Dao Breaker] from shattering while his two Innate True Spirits channeled power into [Mystic Dao Breaker] in an attempt to complete the [Mystic Dao Breaker] before Zhong Yue was killed.
As time passed, Zhong Yue suffered great injuries under the joint attacks of the two celestial emperors, but at the same time, his skill was also completed!
Zhong Yue let out a smile right away and the [Mystic Dao Breaker] shot towards the cage of King Geng like a meteor!
“King Geng, I have finally gotten you out!’
Zhong Yue burst out laughing and this time, while facing the attacks of the two celestial emperors, he no longer tried to resist as if he had given into fate.
While the two celestial emperors pounced at him ferociously, the [Mystic Dao Breaker] was also on the brink of touching King Geng’s cage.
All of a sudden, the [Mystic Dao Breaker] turned around rapidly without a sign and shot all the way up to the top!
Blood splashed and the gigantic body of the Mother Ghost came running out of the cage with a hole opened up by [Mystic Dao Breaker] on her chest while she wailed in pain!
“Argh argh argh—”
In front of her, the cages dispersed quickly like illusions and what laid in front of Zhong Yue was not the King Geng’s cage but her shadow!
At the same time, the two celestial emperors’ mind went blank and they fell onto the ground powerlessly, only to have their heads to severed off by Zhong Yue who utilized and exploited this hard-to-come-by chance and sent the souls of the two celestial emperors into the banner!
“Mother Ghost of Hundred Children, you are plotting against me but why didn’t you realize that I was doing the same?”
Zhong Yue laughed happily as he walked towards Mother Ghost of Hundred Children who was shrieking nonstop and he said coldly, “You are very wary of my techniques, thus, you tried to lure out my powerful techniques by setting up the illusions. However, a technique used twice in front of me is just a stupid move where I would snatch your life from you!”
