Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Oh boy, the Heavenly Monarch’s birthday celebration is just so lively!”
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu gloated, “First it was the detonation of the 24 monarch weapons that destroyed a lot of compounds, then Bi Luo Palace’s explosion of Tian Yi caused by two wild Fuxi and now, a destructive light sphere mowed its way up to South Heaven Gate. Though the movents are significantly smaller this ti, it happened just right around Ling Xiao Palace!”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian also added salt into the wound by saying, “Three explosions, two had already been caused by Mister Yi, and now, he borrowed our psyche to calculate his art but ended up detonating his item.”
Two out of the three explosions were caused by Zhong Yue, humiliating the entire Heaven Court and as Zhong Yue’s lord, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian felt extrely comfortable.
However, little did he know that the explosion in Bi Luo Palace was also caused by him.
In the palaces, countless gods flew into the air and so of them were half naked but how was it possible for them to escape unscathed before the explosion of Tian Pan?
Fortunately for them, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, Chuo Long and the others shielded these gods with their remaining energy, sheltering the gods in their Six Paths Reincarnation and saving them from the shockwaves.
Though inferior to the explosion in Bi Luo Palace, if this explosion had been left unattended, it would also ended up leaving countless casualties behind.
To them, saving these gods required little to no effort.
But of course, they wouldn’t even bat an eye on the compounds destroyed by the explosion and they were even happy to see the shockwaves headed straight towards Ling Xiao Palace.
Six Imperial Palace was located not far away from Ling Xiao Palace and the shockwaves quickly swallowed Ling Xiao Palace. However, it wasn’t able to destroy it due to Ling Xiao Palace’s monarch level seals that were protecting it.
When the two energy waves clashed, a massive soundwave was?ford and echoed through the heaven and earth.
As the place where the Heavenly Monarch discussed important official affairs, Ling Xiao Palace was the most important command centre. With that, the explosion of Tian Pan was not strong enough to destroy it.
Far away, countless gods ascended into the skies, looking towards Ling Xiao Palace with hearts pounding quickly while an imnse monarch aura seeped out from Ling Xiao Palace as the Heavenly Monarch walked out. His expression, however, changed drastically upon seeing Imperial Emperor and the others.
Whether it be the extrely good self control he had, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was furious about what happened; before his birthday celebration even started, he had already been humiliated three tis in just a few days!
However, he still had a shock when he saw Imperial Emperor, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and the others standing together. He quickly restrained himself from swearing and accusing them.
“Your Majesty, this is all our fault, it wouldn’t have happened if we had been more careful.”
The light wheels spun behind Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s head while he let the gods down and apologized.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’ eyes lit up with hidden emotions and he smiled, “Don’t worry, you have to be more careful next ti. You should’ve let the explosion occur during the ceremony.”
He replied sarcastically and without letting Imperial Emperor Xian Tian say a word, he turned towards Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and Demon Monarch Yang Hou and said, “They said that the celestial and demon races in the ancient universe had irreconcilable enmity. But seeing how the both of you are conversing so happily, it seems like that those were just false rumors.”
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and Demon Monarch Yang Hou both smiled while Demon Monarch Yang Hou replied, “In the ancient universe, we will be fighting each other to the deaths. But in Zi Wei, we are on the sa side. Your Majesty, I don’t think you know that I’ve beaten this old brat here no fewer than a hundred tis but each ti, he just wouldn’t die!”
The Left Pri Minister, Gui Youmin and Right Pri Minister, King Shen Wuwei arrived at the scene along with Old Man Xuan and Qi quickly. Upon their arrival, the army divisions in the Heaven Court set up a formation and looked at everyone with imnse killing intent.
Far away, Goddess Queen Monarch ascended into the skies and arrived at the scene quickly with elegance while four more monarch level existences revealed themselves above the Six Imperial Palace.
Upon seeing the appearance of these individuals, the monarch races beca all tensed and they imdiately activated their races’ own monarch weapons.
In a blink of an eye, the atmosphere beca steeped in a thick tension. All over the Heaven Court, a war was waiting to erupt!
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming waved his hand and laughed, “Stand down. It will be my birthday in two days and everyone here are my guests. Please show so manners.”
Under his order, the Left and Right Pri Ministers had the army retreated and the monarch races kept their monarch weapon away.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s vision brushed through the wreckage and said, “Seems like I have to build another few more palaces for you. These palaces should be built extrely sturdy that even monarch weapons won’t cause any damage to them.”
While what he said seed good, there was another aning hidden between the lines; the only place immune even to monarch weapons was the Heavenly Prison and now, he revealed his desire to imprison Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and the others in the Heavenly Prison!
“Good! Good!”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, Demon Monarch Yang Hou and the others laughed happily and Heavenly Monarch Di Ming also burst out laughing. It felt like they were about to cast aside their animosity and beco friends again. But only they themselves knew that their hearts were stone cold underneath their amiable facade.
In the ga of thrones, those who lost usually ended up tragically. As they failed, the monarchs from the Pan Hu Clan and Yin Kang Clan died and the two races were sealed and banished into the State of Heavenly River. The monarch existences imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison were also ones that were defeated. Among them, there were quite a few that were locked in the prison by Imperial Emperor Xian Tian and the others!
Such was the cruelty of war. There was no room for kindness and pity!
“Your Majesty, what exploded this ti is the item Mister Yi forged.”
Old Man Xuan and Qi scanned around the wreckage and after catching a sight onto sothing, they whispered, “The item Mister Yi forged was not completely done and we had already kept the hamr and furnace before he succeeded. Strange, what caused this item to explode?”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked towards the wreckage as he thought,?Such impact! The power of this item is definitely not to be taken lightly. Judging from how strong the impact was, this item is infinitely close to a monarch weapon! There is no way Li Yang could create sothing like this! Is this Mister Yi not Li Yang who was reborn?
Old Man Xuan and Qi added, “We stopped him from successfully forging this item and we believe that he tried to use it by borrowing strength from the gods with him, which caused the item to explode.”
“Before such an explosion, he is probably dead,” said Old Man Xuan and Qi.
Is Mister Yi still alive?
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian imdiately returned to the wreckage upon noticing Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s glances and blocked off his vision.
Suddenly, a tal clanking was heard and from the ruins erged a bloodied hand before Zhong Yue crawled out from the wreckage covered with blood. When he crawled out, he was seen holding a piece of thin tal plate and the tal clanking noise was caused by this tal plate.
“Mister Yi.”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian approached him and he was lost of words after seeing Zhong Yue making through the explosion that mowed down countless compounds despite located at the centre of explosion!
His vision then locked onto the tal plate as it seed like it was this tal plate that helped Zhong Yue survived the explosion.
After taking another look on the tal plate, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian staggered as the tal plate looked like the bottom of the Tian Pan and not a defensive item as he thought.
Or it might have been Zhong Yue that picked it up after the item exploded into pieces.
But how did he survive?
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was intrigued as he examined Zhong Yue. At the centre of the explosion, not even Creators like Fu Li could survive!
But Zhong Yue survived, which ant that there was sothing else that he used to survive the blast!
He then kept his confusion deep in his heart and started helping Zhong Yue.
“My lord, I am fine.”
With a trembling body, Zhong Yue said, “The centre of the explosion was the safest place compared to the other places. There were not much shockwaves around there and I am rely looking ssed up on my appearance. That’s all.”
Without showing a sign at all, the confusion in Imperial Emperor Xian Tian remained but he laughed, “It must have been scary still. Did you managed to get what you wanted?”
“Not quite, but I do have a general idea of it already.”
Zhong Yue spat out the clogged blood in his chest and said, “I call it the [Innate Eight Trigrams], an art that could explain the wonders in Daos. Through everyone’s strength, I’ve managed to form a scaffold but I never expected that my item would explode.”
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian then replied, “Everything is fine as long as you are alive. By the way, do you mind easing us our curiosity? The art that needed our help to calculate is definitely going to be a very outstanding one!’
His suggestion was turned down by Zhong Yue, “My lord, you will witness it during the ceremony.”
“Then I will be waiting for you to shine during the ceremony.”
At the sa ti, blood kept flowing out from Zhong Yue’s nose, ears, and mouth. After attending it briefly, a voice rumbled in his mind, “Can you win against Zhu Xie now?”
Zhong Yue thought for a second and replied Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, “I’d say I stand only 10% chance to win against him.”
“Good.”
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu said again, “If you win against Zhu Xie, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian will definitely lose his trust in you as beating Zhu Xie would an you would be capable of beating Imperial Emperior Xian Tian as well! You should know what to do, yes?”
Zhong Yue’s heart thumped and he imdiately thanked Celestial Monarch Jin Wu for the advice.
anwhile, as the incident slowly cooled down, cleaners from the Heaven Court started removing the wreckage and built new palaces.
As ti slowly passed, the ceremony was just around the corner and Zhu Xie had also stirred up so attention; from the bottom, he fought his way up and now, he was challenging a Deity Overlord with his True Deity level. In just a few days, he had already fought his way up to the third place and attracted a lot of attention!
Zhong Yue, however, did not head over to observe the battle but he returned to North Heaven Gate and cultivated patiently. anwhile, his wife, Yin Fanxuan, headed over towards the arena from ti to ti. When she returned, she looked worried and showed Zhong Yue every technique Zhu Xie perford. She asked afterwards, “What do you think of your chances?”
“20%?”
On the second day, Yin Fanxuan repeated the sa actions and went to peek on Zhu Xie’s strength, reperford these techniques to Zhong Yue and asked, “How about now?”
“30%”
On the third day, Zhong Yue replied, “40%”
“50%”
And Yin Fanxuan shouted, “How are you cultivating so quickly!”
Zhong Yue then explained, “I have yet to learn much about the [Innate Eight Trigrams] but now that I’ve digested its knowledge. I have more than fifty percent confident. If the ceremony were to be postponed, Zhu Xie will be dead for sure!”
