Rise of Humanity

Chapter 1170: Killing The Celestial Monarch

Monarch Xi Hao led many experts to raid the Valley of Xi. Thus began the battle of the fall of Luo Ri Deity King. Zhong Yue watched the whole battle from the deck of the thousand-winged ancient ship.

The outcome of the battle was long destined. Luo Ri Deity King was killed and his race exterminated. The Dao of the Valley of Xi Sacred Ground was crushed and the Valley of Xi was shattered to pieces, turned into ruins.

Monarch Xi Hao and Heaven Court’s generals built a huge temple on top of the ruin and raised a stela made of jade stone. Monarch Xi Hao carved everything about the battle on the stela.

The recording ended up with him stating, “Vaguely, Xi Hao saw a specter riding a ship, came from the future to guide Xi Hao here. It all happened like a dream.”

Then, at the bottom of the stela, he outlined the silhouette of an ancient ship. It was blurry and the specter of a Fuxi could be vaguely seen standing on the deck of the ship, but the Fuxi’s face was blurred out.

Although he could “see” Zhong Yue and the thousand-winged ancient ship, he couldn’t look clearly into the future but only a vague outline of what was.

“Fuxi from the future, will we meet again?”

Monarch Xi Hao raised his head with his Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils opened, staring at the thousand-winged ancient ship and Zhong Yue as he smiled, “I’ve come across many wonders in my life, but never once have I experienced anything as bizarre as today. How unfortunate, I am unable to see your face. But you are one of my descendants, that means I will be able to see you one day in the future, yes? Maybe, you are already born by now, somewhere in our Fuxi Celestial Race!”

He walked around happily, excited by his own conjecture.

Finally, the Heavenly Monarch returned to Heaven Court and ordered every Fuxi to search for Zhong Yue within the race. The search continued on for more than 2,000 years, but Monarch Xi Hao still hadn’t found the future Fuxi even after he took his last breath.

“I’ve seen a specter from the future.” Before his death, the Heavenly Monarch murmured on his bed, “He was here to see me, led me to kill Luo Ri Deity King. He was talking to me on the deck of the ship, but I couldn’t hear a thing…”

A close subject to him replied, “Your Majesty, aging has infected you with illusions. It was your wisdom that led you to eliminate Luo Ri Deity King, there were never any specters from the future. Your Majesty, please enter the Void World, wait no more or your atman will be in danger!”

“No, I saw him, I really saw him. It wasn’t an illusion!” The Heavenly Monarch was rallied, he stood up from his bed and said loudly, “I can wait until he returns! I will be able to… Wait, I saw the ship, I can see him now! He is here to take me! I am seeing the ancient ship from the future, the specter from the future, he is here!”

Beside the bed, his subjects were all shocked. They saw the Heavenly Monarch walked away from his bed in high spirits, striding out of his palace as if youth had returned to his dying body.

The subjects followed the Heavenly Monarch out of the imperial palace and arrived outside. The Heaven Court was filled with golden palaces, the celestials and demons lived in harmony with one another, smiling and laughing together. They glanced around and saw only a world of peace and prosperity.

Monarch Xi Hao stood in front of his imperial palace, his body was straight and his head was high, he was laughing happily as he said, “It is no illusion! He is here to take me!”

“Your Majesty!”

Suddenly, the subjects burst into tears and knelt on the floor, lowering their heads and kowtowing to the Heavenly Monarch. They said in unison, “We congratulate Your Majesty, the Earthly Sovereign Heavenly Monarch, for the returning of your spirit back to the void!”

Zhong Yue was on the deck of the thousand-winged ancient ship, he was also there, watching as the Heavenly Monarch’s spirit rose into the air and flew into the Void World.

He waved his hand and murmured, “Monarch Xi Hao, we will meet again in the future…”

A smile broke out on the Heavenly Monarch’s wrinkled face, his spirit was flying into the Void World, waving back at the ship as he shouted, “We will meet in the future!”

Zhong Yue was startled, he murmured back, “In the future, we will meet, for sure…”

For over 2,000 years, Zhong Yue stayed in the past. In this era, he saw many people of his own kind, they were the Fuxis, his ancestors. The power and glory of the Fuxi Celestial Race in this era was far greater than what he had imagined in his dreams.

He had been to the Ancestral Star and saw Xin Huo and the previous inheritor. Xin Huo was in slumber and the inheritor also died in the curse planted in him by Luo Ri Deity King. He died in his dreams on the Ancestral Star.

His battle with Bo Xun was not known by the public and Xin Huo’s disappearance also began along with the death of the inheritor.

Zhong Yue returned to the Valley of Xi. The derelict sacred ground was unvisited by anyone ever since the death of Luo Ri Deity King and it turned even more ruined.

“How do I go back?” Zhong Yue returned to the sacred ground and was startled. Monarch Hao Yi was long gone. The Heavenly Monarch liked to roam the worlds and visit new places, he had never returned ever since he followed Dark Monarch away.

Zhong Yue didn’t know if the Heavenly Monarch had found Dark Monarch’s hideout, had he met with Dark Monarch’s teacher, or was he safe.

Now, Zhong Yue, Shi Tuo, and Xing Tian were trapped in the past.

For two thousand years, his cultivation progress had excelled greatly. But there was still a long way to go for him to be powerful enough to shatter time and space to return back to the future. The level of Monarch Xi Hao and the likes were still far beyond his reach.

On the other hand, Xing Tian was puzzled by the bizarre experience of living two thousand years in the past. From a young man then to a brawny adult now, his appearance grew much like Bo Xun’s appearance.

It was Xing Tian’s presence in the Valley of Xi that triggered us to go back to the past. So to return to the future, we’ll have to rely on Xing Tian as well.

Zhong Yue mulled as he thought. He planned to let Xing Tian cultivate here in the Valley of Xi and see if that would trigger another chance for them to return to the future.

Of course, it was just a guess. He had no confidence as to whether it would actually work and bring them back to the future.

A dozen years passed by unbeknownst to them. Xing Tian’s cultivation base also propelled over the years and suddenly, Zhong Yue’s heart pounded heavily. In the next second, Xing Tian broke through into the level of a Deity Emperor. The Daos of the Valley of Xi abruptly quivered and swarmed toward Xing Tian!

“Uncle Zhong, I can sense the future me!” Xing Tian exclaimed in shock.

Zhong Yue was bestirred, he said happily, “That means we are returning to the future present!”

Shi Tuo was also rallied, he laughed and said, “Although it’s nice here, this is still a shithole to stay in. How boring is it to have no one to be able to see and talk to! It has been more than 2,000 years and finally, we are going back!”

They stood on the deck of the ship, high spirited as they saw the time and space around them distorting in shape. The flow of time of past, present, and future tumbled into chaos and twined together for a short moment. They saw the present Valley of Xi, just a layer of time and space away from them!

Zhong Yue sailed the thousand-winged ancient ship and just before he was going to travel through the layer of time and space to the present, darkness shrouded the Valley of Xi all of a sudden.

“Luo Ri Deity King, I am here.”

In the darkness, a terrifying presence showed himself, it was Dark Monarch!

Zhong Yue quickly stopped the thousand-winged ancient ship and floated quietly on the side. In the boundless darkness, Dark Monarch walked to the side of the Demon Suppression Grand Temple, raised his hand as he was tempted to crush the temple but forced himself to hold his urge back.

“I promised you to save you when you are in danger, but I never thought Monarch Xi Hao would follow me and find my sacred ground. Fortunately for me, my teacher noticed him and forced him back into the past. When I had the time, you were already killed by Monarch Xi Hao.”

Dark Monarch sighed and continued, “I broke my words. I dare not come as Monarch Xi Hao still had his eyes around in this place. Only after his death did I dare to come and see you. But don’t you worry, although your sacred ground is shattered and your Dao is broken, I can still revive you!”

Boundless darkness gathered into a black cloak behind Dark Monarch as he said, “I have a way to revive you!”

“That is the fall of the sun!”

“In the Valley of Tang, a celestial was born along with your little brother’s birth. He is an Innate Golden Crow!”

“He is the dawn, the rising sun, the opposite of your little brother!”

“But he can be taken down! His fall will the fall of a sun. His death will recuperate the broken Daos of the Valley of Xi. The shattered Valley of Xi will be completed again and the fallen Luo Ri Deity King will rise once more!”

Dark Monarch’s voice grew louder and darker, he laughed nefariously, “But he is still too weak now, I still need him to grow stronger. His death now will only be strong enough to revive your brother. Wait till he becomes a monarch, wait till he is the Celestial Monarch Jin Wu. By then, his fall in the Valley of Xi, his blood, his Daos, his body, will be the foundation of your reincarnation!”

Zhong Yue’s heart skipped a beat, the thousand-winged ancient ship shuddered and was sucked away by the time and space of the future present!

“Who——”

Dark Monarch suddenly turned his head to the direction of the thousand-winged ancient ship and the ancient ship disappeared in the next split second!

At the same time, the thousand-winged ancient ship suddenly reappeared in the present time and continued ramming toward Celestial Monarch You’E.

On the other hand, Monarch Chang Sheng was also heading toward Celestial Monarch You’E. Meanwhile, Zhong Yue’s connection with Gu Yue returned and sensed Gu Yue in the Six Paths Tian Lun that was cast by Si Ming to attack Celestial Monarch You’e’s Six Paths Reincarnation!

He had left for two thousand years and spent those years in the past, but when he returned to the present, he found himself back at the exact same moment as if he had never left before!

“I’m so crazy…” Shi Tuo murmured in disbelief.

Whereas young Xing Tian was driven nuts by the truth, he shouted like a mad man, “We have been dreaming all this time! Hahaha, I knew we were dreaming! It must be it!”

Zhong Yue also felt the same. But he couldn’t care less about it anymore as he must eliminate Celestial Monarch You’e now and save Celestial Monarch Jin Wu!

It wasn’t just Innate Demon Monarch and Innate Celestial Monarch that wanted Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s death, but Dark Monarch was also striving for the same goal. Not only that, but he even wanted to sacrifice Celestial Monarch Jin Wu’s blood, Daos, and body to revive another terrifying ancient Deity King!

Luo Ri Deity King!

If Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was killed here and Luo Ri Deity King revived, Xing Tian would also be dragged into danger!

If it happened, no one knows if Bo Xun would also be revived, would he possesses Xing Tian’s body and came back to life?

No matter what, Zhong Yue had to stop it from happening!

Krong——

Monarch Chang Sheng and Celestial Monarch You’E clashed ferociously. Their monarch weapons rammed into one another. At the same time, a loud explosion resounded out as Celestial Monarch You’e’s Six Paths Reincarnation was slashed open. His Yuan Shen secret realms were sliced apart by Six Paths Tian Lun and his essence leaked nonstop out of his body!

Zhong Yue cast the thousand-winged ancient ship with all his might and rammed into the celestial monarch’s mortal body. On the deck, Zhong Yue roared like a mad beast, raising his hand high to bring the [Dao Crusher] down heavily on the monarch’s head!
