Chapter 1144: Southern Heaven Gate
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The ancient ship halted and started turning around as its wings flapped rapidly, slicing and dicing the innate gods into pieces.
The innate gods among the Sign of Nine-Five charged forth, but Di Xiuluo standing right beside King Zi Guang said, “Be gone.”
The innate gods stumbled on his words for a second and they retreated without hesitation, leaving the battle and disappearing.
Lou Zhengshi’s body turned cold seeing this, the Sign of Nine-Five were all peak Imperial Emperors, with their strength gathered, they formed a significant power that could resist Zhong Yue. Yet, after losing a few comrades, the Sign of Nine-Five fled from the scene right away!
At the back, Heaven Breaching Fortress’ army was approaching quickly, swarming into their camps and started spreading to both sides, except that the Southern Heaven Gate’s army was still moving into position.
“We’re already doomed when the reinforcements arrive, it will be too late!”
Lou Zhengshi shouted, “Clan Master Pan Ji, senior martial brothers and sisters, fall back! Back to the gate! Quick!”
Hearing this, the soldiers retreated under the lead of their generals, they fought ferociously, with their lives on the line and leaving behind bodies as they battled. Throughout the retreat, bodies fell onto the ground in droves only to be quickly swarmed by a tsunami of insect gods.
With Jiao Teng commanding these insect gods, these creatures followed tightly behind the Heaven Court’s soldiers whereas Tai Feng and the others flanked from the sides but not before having these endless insect gods charging first.
Under the lady Imperial Emperor’s order, these creatures charged fearlessly, laying waste wherever they went and biting these defenders to death!
“Shut the gate!”
A burly voice sounded in the Southern Heaven Gate before the massive gate emitted bright yet condensed light, shutting the gate. Along with the closing of the gate was the ending of the soldiers that failed to make it.
They were swiftly swarmed by the insect gods, shrieks and wails sounded endlessly but the insect god’s number multiplied quickly. They started ramming themselves towards the thick gate, only to be crushed to dust by the aftershock and the gate was soaked in their blood.
“Activate the plate!”
The voice sounded again, this time, that plate imprinted with the Southern Heaven Gate’s name shined. At this moment, the words seemed to have come to life, it’s writing like an invincible divine sword, like a slithering dragon, like a billhook and like a serpent!
With complicated and indescribable meanings contained in the writing, they swept towards the insect gods and evaporated millions and millions of them!
The three names were surging with overwhelming monarch might, granting them terrifying power that claimed the lives of the many insect gods in just a blink of an eye, shocking Jiao Teng and had her charging at the plate with the monarch weapon. The plate, however, fired a destructive attack that forced Jiao Teng, who was yielding the monarch weapon, back!
“This plate is one from the Earth Order Era, the wordings on it are nurtured and cultivated by every Heavenly Monarch, be careful.”
Tai Feng halted Jiao Teng’s charge and said, “It’s not a monarch weapon but its strength is about the same. We would need to gather the monarch weapons’ might to hold it off.”
At the same time, the skies turned dark as countless light arrows were fired, nailing the endless insect gods onto the ground, killing them right on the spot and also claiming the lives of the Heaven Breaching Fortress’ soldiers, forcing them to back off.
Fu Li shook his head, “With these peak Imperial Emperor level generals there, it would be difficult to close in even if we had the monarch weapons.”
Meanwhile, from the other side of the field, the ancient ship vibrated slowly as it glided through the skies, on the deck was Zhong Yue himself and the young man who was looking at the gate shouted suddenly, “Xian Tian Royal Guards! Activate the Stone Sentinel Maze!”
Chi Song and the other generals hurriedly activated Stone Sentinel Maze and Zhong Yue revealed his Fuxi True Form, the seven light wheels rotating behind his head as he stood at the deck, shrouded in a terrifying presence.
His arms spread out, and from his mouth chanted obscure Dao language, rumbling the heaven and earth, echoed far away and the peak Imperial Emperors behind Southern Heaven Gate did not look good, one of the older ones murmured, “It’s the Dao language, the language spoken by the innate gods of the Dark Age! Their language contain Daos and the one among us that excels in this language is Mister Wuji, where is he right now?”
Soon, Feng Wuji arrived and his heart skipped a beat upon hearing this chanting, he carefully listened to it and answered, “He’s chanting the revival Dao language! This is a Dao language related to the Dao of life but his understanding and knowledge on this Dao wouldn’t let him revive powerful beings.”
“The revival Dao language…”
This shocking reply impacted them greatly and they shouted, “What is he trying to revive?”
Feng Wuji’s expression changed as well as he mumbled, “The dead buried under this gate….”
Hua la la la—
Eerie noises created when bones knocked onto each other sounded beneath their legs, bodies lying all over the battlefield stood up and the living deads started attacking the Southern Heaven Gate!
Then, a terrifying scene played out. Zhong Yue’s Seven Paths Reincarnation turned bigger and rolled insanely, madly creating things as the souls of the dead were revived!
These were the brave warriors serving Zhong Yue that sacrificed in this battle, they were awakened from their supposedly eternal slumber before Zhong Yue’s revival Dao language!
Bones started growing, flesh regenerated and after that was their skin but the bodies mainly remained in a mutilated state as Zhong Yue’s understanding of the Dao language was still relatively weak!
These mutilated gods swarmed out from his Seven Paths Reincarnation, charged towards Southern Heaven Gate, giving the existences behind the gate the chills!
At the same time, black and white crows with damaged wings flew out, these were Yuan Ya Deity King’s descendants that were slaughtered by Zhong Yue back in the Innate Dao Mountain, amounting to billions!
This scene was beyond horrifying, even with the Southern Heaven Gate’s plate, they failed to eradicate these foul beings despite the immense energy pumped into it. Besides, even after killing these living deads, they would still walk out from Zhong Yue’s Seven Paths Reincarnation again, making the living dead army endless!
“Damn… damn!”
Behind the gate, everyone was crazily channeling energy into the plate and their eyes popped out when Zhong Yue disappeared from their vision and appeared before the plate a second later. To their horror, Zhong Yue effortlessly removed the plate and disappeared along with the plate again.
Shua—
The Seven Paths Reincarnation was kept away in an instant, without its strength, the living deads lost their souls, the bodies rotted and turned into dust right away while their souls returned to Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen Secret Realm.
“Attack! Charge!”
The Heaven Breaching Fortress’s generals roared, monarch weapons flew out and slammed onto Southern Heaven Gate, shaking it vigorously and leaving cracks on it.
The gate shrieked under the impact and finally shattered before the second wave of attack!
“Charge!”
Tai Feng, Long Zhi and the others led the charge into the gate, at the same time, the remaining three gates from three sides were being attacked by the other armies, plunging the Heaven Court into a dire situation.
“Fanxuan, Hexi, just occupy the gate for ourselves and give no chase to the Heaven Court. There is no need to enter a fight with them at this time.”
The ladies nodded and Zhong Yue turned around for the Heavenly River. When he looked down, the Eastern Heaven Gate was already breached and the other two gates were on the brink of falling.
No matter who won, the Heaven Court had lost its majestic fame and might.
Zhong Yue blinked his eyes as he flew right past Heaven Court and his speed slowed down when approaching Bi Luo Palace. He took a detour right away and from Bi Luo Palace walked out a figure at the same second. It was Mister Bi Luo. From far away, the Heavenly Prison trembled and a majestic existence looked towards the Heavenly River from the prison.
These two caught the presence of the ship right away and they looked at Zhong Yue at once.
Mister Bi Luo nodded as a greeting, Zhong Yue bowed back and his heart thumped quickly upon seeing this existence above Heavenly Prison, What is this! It’s no celestial, no demon and no innate, is this a mother queen monarch, wait a minute, this isn’t a mother queen’s presence….
This figure was tall and muscular, covered in white robes and beneath the robe was something moving around, just like a giant serpent slithering in her clothes.
However, it was entirely blocked away as she was entirely hidden in the white robe.
If this is not a mother queen, then what is she?
Zhong Yue shifted his vision away and sailed into the Heavenly River.
The master of Heavenly Prison too, moved her sight away and asked, “Its the fire spirits’ contract, no wonder his presence is so familiar.”
Mister Bi Luo’s heart thumped at this comment, “The fire spirits are hiding in him? Could it be he is the one that intruded the prison?”
With a sore voice, the Heavenly Prison’s master answered, “Then why are you not doing anything? He is a remnant of Fuxi Celestial Race and as someone like me, I would always prepare a room for these Fuxi.”
Mister Bi Luo’s eyes rolled around and he smiled, “It’s ok, he must be alive right now. If he died, then we would not be able to draw out the backup plans left behind by Dao Venerate Fu Min. Apart from him, there are also some old dogs that are willing to side with Fuxi any time. The higher up wants me to net them up at once to eliminate every potential threat. Besides, the higher up also wants me to weaken those that acted recklessly just because they are born innately.”
What he meant here was not the ordinary innate gods but existences that were already around before Heaven itself.
The master of Heavenly Prison remained silent and after some time, she said, “You are playing with fire.”
“No no no, I am not. This is what we call breeding fish. The higher up is very fond of these existences in a way but also despises them for their weak resolve. After all, these guys barely improved after we bred them for such long time. The little Fuxi is all under control, it is Mu Xiantian that we should beware of right now. He is the last innate god, and that bestowed him with great fate. If he becomes the Heavenly Monarch, he will definitely disown Heaven and start attacking Heaven.”
“Hence, such an incident is definitely not allowed, Mu Xiantian must be killed but the one standing behind him is a pain in the butt.”
The ancient ship sailed to the beginning of the Heavenly River and Zhong Yue started trailing after it, exiting the Heaven Court’s territory and that was when bubbles started emergy, as if it were being boiled. Stars emerged from the water and flew into the air, growing in size throughout the way and finally disappearing as massive planets.
Huu—
A rainbow appeared in the skies, slicing through the galaxy and diced the planets into dust!
The battle between Di Ming and Mu Xiantian was finally underway!
