Rise of Humanity

Chapter 43 The Trembling Great Wilderness

Zhong Yue hid in the woods, he spread out his psyche and not long after, he found a human tribe, with a single thought, his psyche dragged a few clothes over to him.

Shame, I was too complacent till I forgot that my clothes were torn apart.

Zhong Yue donned the clothes and heaved a breath of relief, he suddenly thought of something, he asked, “Xin Huo, if I turn my psyche into clothes and wear them on, will the others be able to see through them?”

“Those that are weaker than you will not be able to, but those that are stronger can see right through your bare buttocks.”

Suddenly, an aura passed by Zhong Yue in mid-air, at the same time a pair of eyes gazed at him for a second and shifted away once the owner identified that Zhong Yue was a human.

“Another Shui Tu Clan Qi Practitioner.”

Zhong Yue glanced at him and ignored it, he had now regained his human form, the Xiang Dragon was what the Shui Tu Clan was searching for, they wouldn’t suspect him at all, giving him the opportunity to leave.

Those white skeletal ships that flew towards the Beast God Ridge, what are they?

Zhong Yue was thinking in his heart while he makes his way back to Swords Gate, The occupants on the ships were surrounded by a wicked and nefarious air, they don’t look like a Swords Gate Qi Practitioner at all, could they be from the monster race? Strange, the monsters and we humans are like fire and water, how would they come into the Great Wilderness, moreover in such a swaggering manner?

He racked his head but his mind came up with nothing, the Beast God Ridge was considered to be located at the center of the Great Wilderness; Swords Gate would surely be alerted to the arrival of the monsters and would never allow them to enter, but there were no actions nor any countermeasures taken so far and this was fairly odd.

The monsters were well-directed to the Beast God Ridge, they should be here for the beast god seal, but little did they know that there was nothing else in the Beast God Ridge other than the inner core of the beast god.

Zhong Yue’s face turned eccentric, he thought to himself, Plus, they didn’t know how dangerous the beast god seal is now. It is not an easy task to break through the seals now, because of Xin Huo and I, the Yin Dragon River and Flora Soldiers Array are restored…

Somewhere on the Beast God Ridge, in front of the beast god seal, Yan Yunsheng, the Lord of Sulphur Island, and Xiutian Chen, another magnate of the Xian Kong City who was also the Lord of Jinxiu Island, led their Qi Practitioner followers into the beast god seal, countless of monster Qi Practitioners started to break the seals off.

These Qi Practitioners were all well-known warriors of the Xian Kong City, they were proficient in the arts of the array formations and their understandings of the totem carvings were profound.

Right outside of the beast god seal, a massive toad crouched on the ground and another giant python coiled beside the toad, the monster Qi Practitioners skinned the toad and the python as they collected their blood in buckets before transporting the blood into the beast god seal.

The stronger monster Qi Practitioners in the beast god seal would then utilize the buckets of blood and mark various totem carvings in order to suppress the beast god totem on the stone tablets and resolve the Seven Slaughtering Arrays.

The toad was six-eyed, every eye had a circumference of one mu and all six of them were bulging up into a circle.

While the giant python had blade-like horns on its head, dorsal fins on its back and a thin layer of translucent cicada wings!

They were not one of the monster race nor the monster beasts, but instead, they were spirits, totem spirits of the monster race!

The two totem spirits were emanating an imposing aura as if they were two statues of gods.

Clearly, the beast god seal was of pinnacle importance in the eyes of the monster race, they even put the two totem spirits of the Sulphur Island and Jinxiu Island to use!

The blood of the totem spirits was not true blood, but rather, the natural totem carvings precipitated into a form of a sanguine liquid, containing the spirit force from the veneration of the monster race, they were the perfect materials to break the beast god seal!

“Concentrate and give me all you’ve got, there is zero margin for error!”

Yan Yunsheng gazed around, he watched as the beast god power on the stone tablets was suppressed one after another and heaved a breath of relief, he said, “The Beast God Ridge, these eight hundred miles of land really are the remains of the fallen beast god. The beast god must be unimaginably strong. Brother Xiutian, the Swords Gate headmaster is still alive, but he hasn’t had much time left. The reason I went to the Swords Gate wasn’t merely limited to demonstrating my superiority to the petty humans. I have another bigger motive … to test out the limit of that old geezer. Although he had cast off my aura, he didn’t show his appearance, instead, he had the Shui Tu Clan elder to negotiate. With his usual title and temper as the nominal ‘Sword God’, he would have never negotiated at all, killing would be his only answer! From this, one can clearly surmise that he is nearly the end of his life!”

Xiutian Chen clasped his hands behind his back and said in a casual manner, “As long as the old geezer is alive, the Swords Gate will be left untouched. However, once he is gone, the Swords Gate will crumble like a petty bug. He himself is clearly aware of it, which is why he is trying to delay his death for another few more years so that he can raise the next headmaster. But sadly, the elders of the Swords Gate are all hollow shells of their former primes, while the next generation, Feng, Fang, Lei, and Jun are still too green. Although they are comparable to the elders, they are still a distance away from taking charge as chief, not to mention becoming the next headmaster. I wonder if that old geezer Feng can even live long enough to see those four youngsters mature.

“Feng, Fang, Lei, and Jun - the four all possess innate spirit bodies, they were born inherently with their spirits, a Qi Practitioner from birth. They are not to be underestimated, the only caveat is that they have not cultivated for long enough.”

Yan Yunsheng smiled, “The Great Wilderness … will, in the end, belong to us the monster race! This land will be the pasture of the monster race, the humans will be the food we devour. They know very well of the art of surviving, they prey for their own food, they reproduce their own kind. We only need to leave and breed them like livestock here, once in awhile we will come to reap and partake in a batch of humans; we would have an unlimited supply of food for the monster race!”

Later on, Xiutian Chen also joined in the others in suppressing the stone tablets with the totem blood, he said, “There must be treasures of the ancient beast god right here in the beast god seal. It’s a shame the lord of Xian Kong City is not coming along, otherwise, we will be able to greatly expedite the process!”

One after another, the stone tablets were suppressed, numerous monster Qi Practitioners including Yan Yunsheng and Xiutian Chen all ventured deep into the beast god seal.

“This river…”

Xiutian Chen suddenly stopped, he gazed at the river stream that flowed beside his feet, he pondered for a moment and all of a sudden, his face twitched and changed drastically, he took a deep breath and shouted out loud, “STOP, everyone, stop at once!”

The orotund and deafening voice resounded in the ears of the monster Qi Practitioners, they all halted their actions and stayed still.

Yan Yunsheng furrowed his brows and asked, “Brother Xiutian, is there anything wrong?”

Xiutian Chen’s face was filled with fear and terror, he slowly made his way backward, his voice was hoarse and throaty, “There is a second layer of seals, we have only broken off the first layer, but the second one remains active. We must all leave now exactly as how we entered, we must not take a single wrong step!”

Yan Yunsheng also noticed the odd situation, he immediately retreated back in the same manner he entered.

Suddenly, one of the Qi Practitioners took a wrong step.

The surrounding air violently convulsed, it turned stagnant and was dead quiet, a portent of an impending calamity. Xiutian Chen and Yan Yunsheng’s faces changed drastically, they rushed back at their full speed!

Krong!

The little stream of river in the beast god seal suddenly floated into the air, then it expanded quickly turning itself into a ferocious and dreadful black dragon, it’s aura evoked terror and fear in those around, the black dragon soared and tumbled in the seal, slaughtering any living thing that crossed its sight!

It was this moment where all of the monster Qi Practitioners lost their composure, the crowd dispersed all around finding their way out of the seal!

Right at this time, the flowers, grasses and trees started wobbling in the beast god seal; a flower and a grass, a leaf and a branch, every small and insignificant flora transformed into strong and powerful soul weapons of capable of extinguishing life!

Zheng-zheng-zheng, the flora flew into the air, the smell of blood and metal along with a strong surge of killing intent deluged the air!

In the beast god seal, heads fell onto the ground and limbs scattered all around, some Qi Practitioners let out roars and howls as they reverted back to their monster beast form, the massive and humongous monster beasts then fought back with their soul weapons and defended themselves from the slaughtering arrays!

But once they had shown their gigantic true forms, one after another the giant gods walked out from the stone tablets. in a trice, the beast god seal was filled with the gods as they tore the massive beasts into pieces!

Countless monster Qi Practitioners were torn into pieces and were devoured by the gods.

Fortunately, some Qi Practitioners were strong enough to defend themselves from the gods, especially Yan Yunsheng and Xiutian Chen as well as the two island lords - their strengths were incredibly strong. In a single strike, they could have struck off the gods away from them.

Those that were surviving right now were the elites of the monster Qi Practitioners, they would all be a well-known cultivator if placed in the Swords Gate!

“Krrong!”

A loud roar resounded, the medium slaughtering array of the beast god seal was triggered and the tens of thousands of feet tall gods slew the monster Qi Practitioners like ravenous wolves amidst a flock of sheep; blood and flesh scattered all over the place. Within a breath’s time, the over one thousand monster Qi Practitioners were routed and their corpses lie strewn across the floor, the only survivors were the two island lords, Yan Yunsheng and Xiutian Chen.

The duo rushed to the edge of the seal, they were only a single step away from exiting the beast god seal but just right at that point of time, the high platforms shuddered and ear-deafening sounds bombarded the ears of the two; pillars of rays from the high platforms shot up into the high skies!

Right when this happened, Zhong Yue was close to Swords Gate, he suddenly turned around and saw forty-nine light pillars shooting up into the firmament and forming a radiant curtain of light rays!

The light curtain was like a black hole that kept spinning and the colossus gods were sucked into it one by one.

“The three arrays are finally activated at the same time!”

Xin Huo was overjoyed, he leaped out from Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean and sat on top of Zhong Yue’s head, “Brat Yue, quickly, there is a big show about to start!”

Zhong Yue looked at it and his heart shuddered for a moment, the mirror blurred for a second and the foot of a square mile large creature covered in dragon scales slowly emerged from inside it, followed by a colossus body, long tail and a head with the size of a mountain!

Xiang Dragon!

It was a Xiang Dragon purely formed by the totem carvings, a Xiang Dragon with an unimaginable size!

The Xiang Dragon trembled the whole of Great Wilderness beneath its god aura, shuddering everyone and instilling every living being with unfathomable fear and terror!

The Xiang Dragon stood in the Beast God Ridge, its colossal body could be seen even from far away as if it was the mountain ridge itself in the Beast God Ridge!

There was also the black dragon formed by the little river in the beast god seal soaring around and looming in the woods while Sword Qi was circling in the air as if it would rend the heavens in half!

Suddenly, a six-eyed toad carrying a pale-white skeletal ship leaped into the air. Beneath the toad, a giant python flew into the air and carried the toad flying away from the Beast God Ridge!

The next moment, the giant python was sucked back and devoured by the black dragon, the Sword Qi slashed in the air and the six-eyed toad fell dead onto the ground. The Xiang Dragon released a dreadful howl and rammed onto the skeletal ship crushing it into pieces, the silhouettes of two figures were thrown out of the Beast God Ridge.

While Zhong Yue was in rapture by the three slaughtering arrays, Xin Huo shook his head disapprovingly, “They didn’t all die, could it be that I’ve placed something wrongly and the power of the three slaughtering arrays failed to be fully unleashed … Nope, definitely not me! How could someone as smart and brilliant like me make a mistake? It must be the beast god being all lousy and useless! Yup, it must be it!”
