“Once will be enough,” Zhong Yue replied casually, “I die, the Nine Lives Black Wok Mushroom will save my life once and return to its clean slate of no master. Do you think you can resist its Extreme Evil Qi? By then, all of you will fall into its illusions again and die in its evil power.”
Gao Yin’s eyelids thumped, he suddenly smiled, “You dare try to trick me?”
Zhong Yue smiled, “You can try and see for yourself.”
The smile on Gao Yin’s face turned brighter. But the more he smiled he was, the greater his killing intent became!
All of a sudden, Feng Yulan cleared his throat and said softly, “Senior Martial Brother Gao Yin, you really shouldn’t risk it.”
Gao Yin was puzzled but soon realized it. Although he had the confidence to resist the Nine Lives Black Wok Mushroom and even use its Evil Qi to help in his cultivation, Feng Yulan and the others were helpless in front of it.
If what Zhong Yue said turned out to be true, Feng Yulan and the others wouldn’t be able to survive a second time.
Mo Yuanshu walked over with a cold smirk, “Gao Yin, I suggest you not risk it, or else, I’ll have you die a horrible death!”
Shen Qiushan said with a smile, “Senior Martial Brother Gao Yin, in my opinion, since it is Mister Yi that has acquired the saint herb, it meant that fate had it this way. Senior martial brother, I beg you to not raise anymore troubles or the crowd’s anger will not be pleasant to be faced with.”
Gao Yin looked toward Imperial Emperors Du Ya and saw the killing intent in the latter’s eyes. Clearly, if he dared to act here, they would all kill him!
There is no need to initiate a death battle with them now. As it stood now, our Evil Monarch Palace has the most experts. The second stage already had them heavily impaired. The deeper we go, the more of them will die, and it will leave our Evil Monarch Palace with the greatest advantage!
Rays flashed across Gao Yin’s eyes, he suddenly laughed and said sincerely, “You people are right, I apologize for being too impatient. I will not do anything here, will that work?”
Feng Yulan replied placidly, “So long it’s not taking place here, pick anywhere you like.”
Gao Yin nodded, he smiled, “Mister Yi, you are now safe. Everyone, shall we advance forward? That presence’s disciple has long past this stage into the next one. With his ability, there isn’t much that can stop him in his path. If we delay any longer, we probably won’t be able to reap any benefits at all.”
Mo Yuanshu, Du Ya, and the others sterned their hearts. Their faces stiffened up when they thought of the silhouette covered in the mystical light. Immediately, they stood up and moved forward.
That presence’s disciple?, Zhong Yue thought, Are they talking about the silhouette in the lights? Judging from Mo Yuanshu’s and Shen Qiushan and the others’ faces, they recognize the mystical lights. To be able to bring attention from the disciples of Evil Monarch, Demon Monarch, Celestial Monarch, and Black Monarch, and even raise their vigilance, there shouldn’t be too many people…
“Mister Yi.”
All of a sudden, Feng Mingshan strode forward, and he inspected Zhong Yue from tip to toe, then bowed and greeted, “When I saw Mister in the Dao Assimilation, I mourned. But now seeing that you are fine, Mingshan is relieved. Rank one of the Furture Monarchs Board, you are worthy of your name.”
Zhong Yue returned the gesture and smiled, “Senior Martial Brother Mingshan is flattering me. Senior Martial Brother Mingshan, you and Mister Wuji are friends?”
Feng Wuji said while smiling, “Although Senior Martial Brother Mingshan and I met just a short while ago, our personalities match quite well. We are more than just acquaintances.”
Feng Mingshan said sincerely, “This time leaving the mountains, my goal is to meet with the Xian Tian Palace’s Mister Yi. Now that fate had brought us together today, I wonder if I can be taught your way?”
Glowing light wheels emerged behind Feng Mingshan’s head and when Zhong Yue looked over, his heart sterned up.
There were seven light wheels!
Feng Yuan Origin Lord’s disciple has also opened the seventh secret realm!
More so, his seventh secret realm seemed to be even sturdier than Zhong Yue’s, it also contained more Dao abstrusities in it!
But it wasn’t really a surprise either. Feng Yuan Origin Lord was one of the strongest presences now, in the same level to the Innate Evil Monarch, Innate Black Monarch, and the rest. It was impossible that she wouldn’t try for the seventh secret realm, the Seven Paths Reincarnation!
Through Feng Mingshan’s cultivation, Zhong Yue could tell Feng Yuan Origin Lord’s attainments in the Seven Paths Reincarnation were levels beyond his!
And he was also excited to see Feng Mingshan!
For however long, he couldn’t remember if he had come across a real opponent, one that was on par with him and could evoke his battle will. He had been longing for a fellow Daoist that could make him exceed his limits and stimulate his potentials!
And now, he finally found one!
“Alright!” Zhong Yue heaved a long breath, he answered solemnly, “I accept your request!”
A bright smile of happiness radiated across Feng Mingshan’s face, he stepped forth and said, “Mister Yi, this is no place for the battle. After we leave, you and I will battle in your Heaven Suppressing Prefecture.”
Feng Yulan glanced an eye over and lowered her voice, “Junior Martial Brother Mingshan, you’ve acted too rashly!”
Feng Mingshan was puzzled while Feng Yulan sneered frigidly, “When you showed your seventh secret realm, the others all raised their killing intents against you!”
What she meant by ‘the others’ were Mo Yuanshu, Shen Qiushan, Du Ya, Gao Yin, and the like. When they saw the light wheels that emerged behind Feng Mingshan’s heads, Feng Mingshan was too weak to sense anything, but Feng Yulan was able to capture the faint killing intent that was brewing in the Imperial Emperors!
‘The seventh secret realm isn’t the specialty of the Heavenly Fire Barren Land. The Evil Monarch Palace, the Demon Monarch Palace, they too have their heritage of it, don’t they?”
Feng Mingshan was puzzled, “I don’t believe that they didn’t cultivate the seventh secret realm. Since we all do, why raise their killing intent on me?”
Feng Yulan smirked coldly, “It’s your first time out of the Heavenly Fire Barren Land, it’s only natural you don’t understand the cruelty of the outside world. What do you think, the seventh secret realm can be achieved by random cultivators? Even our Heavenly Fire Barren Land only had you over the past 100 thousand years. The Evil Monarch Palace, the Demon Monarch palace, even when they had talents like you too, they wouldn’t be large in number. At most, there would only be one! One in a hundred thousand years, of course they would raise their killing intents at you, if not you, then who? Killing you will be tantamount to destroying the future of our Heavenly Fire Barren Land!”
Feng Mingshan’s heart tensed up upon hearing this.
However, Feng Wuji from the side said with a smile, “Senior Martial Brother Mingshan, Senior Martial Sister Yuzhen insect race right, you need to be more cautious. Look, even with Mister Yi already having opened the seventh secret realm, he also wouldn’t want to leave you alive. The fact that he has agreed to the battle with you somewhat proves that he is trying to take you out of the picture.”
Feng Mingshan was dumbfounded but shook shortly after, “I don’t know about the others, but Mister Yi is not the same as the ones you speak of. Him publicly sharing his experience and attainments of the seventh secret realm in the Heaven Court is a testament to his magnanimity. I think he only accepted my request because I too had the seventh secret realm. He is asking for no more than an exchange of our knowledge in the seventh secret realm. He has no other intentions.”
Feng Wuji shook his head, “You are still too naive. You don’t know of the cruelty of the world. Mister Yi is the ultimate pragmatist. Imperial Emperor Xian Tian saw him as a Mister, Xian Tian Palace’s first adviser and general. Mister Yi is sly and cunning. If you insist on your naivety, I fear that you will die from his tricks!”
Feng Yulan nodded with a serious countenance, “Mingshan, when you battle, do not ever hold back!”
Feng Mingshan answered.
“Mister Yi.” The two little Dao kids strode toward Zhong Yue and Zhong Yue asked curiously, “You three are…?”
Black Monarch sent out three little Dao kids, one of which died under Nine Lives Black Wok Mushroom’s illusions, he was left with not even his soul to be reincarnated. Now, there were only two surviving.
“Mister Yi, we are Senior Martial Brother Xian Tian’s junior martial brothers, the Dao kids of Black Monarch. We cultivate under the Black Monarch’s teachings.”
They were in black robes, looking young in appearance but speaking like wizened old men.
The elder-looking of the two said, “Since you are under Senior Martial Brother Xian Tian’s command, you are also under ours to command. We still need you later!”
The young one continued, “I’ve heard that you’ve opened the seal of the Fuxi divine blood, and quite a significant portion of it. This is the Fuxi’s Ancestral Court, we are guessing there will be a need for the Fuxi blood somewhen later. Follow us, we will protect you, but you will present the Fuxi blood when required.”
Zhong Yue was expressionless as he asked placidly, “Am I taken as a key to open the locks of the Ancestral Court, or an offering on the altar?”
The two Dao kids frowned.
Zhong Yue waved his hand and dismissed their request, “I am confident I will still able to protect myself without your help. Please, return.”
The elder one said coldly, “Mister Yi, don’t you forget your place! You are my senior martial brother’s subject…”
“What has that got to do with you?” Zhong Yue interrupted coldly.
The two kids exchanged a look and strode away, the younger one said, “There is no need to argue now. When he is needed, we’ll just take it ourselves!”
Zhong Yue squinted his eyes and thought, These two Dao kids are not weak …
Xin Huo said, “Dao kids? These are two Imperial Emperors!”
Zhong Yue was shocked and exclaimed, “These two little kids are Imperial Emperors?”
“And ones at the strongest level!” Xin Huo nodded heavily, “They are definitely no weaker than Du Ya, Shen Qiushan, and the rest! Furthermore, they aren’t kids for sure. The younger one was already at least 30,000 years old!”
For a few moments, Zhong Yue was speechless, then he shook his head.
Xin Huo gloated, “Do you regret it now? They may be arrogant, but at least they won’t take your life. They still need your blood to pass through the stages. But you offended them for literally no reason, prepare to suffer the consequences…”
“I didn’t shake my head because I regretted my actions.” Zhong Yue smiled, “I shook because they had only reached the level of Imperial Emperor in 30,000 years. Did they spend all their lives on Feng Wuji?”
It was Xin Huo’s turn to become speechless, he murmured, ” Spent their lives on Feng Wuji 1 ? What does it even mean?”
When the third stone tablet hovered over, the patterns on its surface have shone brightly. The patterns were projected down and above the ground, space shuddered. Then, the space had been raised upright vertically beside the pathway.
The crowd stood up and looked at the vertical space. It was a picture, thousands of miles high and tens of thousands miles long. What was drawn in the picture recorded a grand battle of gods. The war involved all kinds of gods, they were in different forms and the battles filled the whole picture from one end to the other.
“This picture… it’s Shui Mo Lady Monarch’s Picture of Armistice!” All of a sudden, Du Ya murmured softly.
