Chapter 1051: Void Contract
But they weren’t the only ones in the pathway, there was still Hundun Yu, Yi Wanjun, Shi Yinji, and a few celestials from the Tian Feng Sovereign Race. These experts were looking up in stupefaction as the stalwart monarchs fought like machines. Their souls were almost scared out of their bodies.
3,000 monarchs’ corpses. Any single one of those monarchs could smash them into a pile of mixed meat with just a step!
But what was strange was that although the monarchs’ corpses were large in number, none of them did anything to the experts. The monarchs’ corpses stood unmoving right after they battered the five ancient paragon incarnations back into their mediums.
Shi Yinji braced herself and stepped forward to inspect a female monarch, she murmured, “So they are the monarchs of the ancient era? How strong…”
All of a sudden, the lady monarch bolted up into the sky and scared Shi Yinji. They quickly looked up and saw that the other monarchs had also flown back up into the black cloud of coffins. Then disappearing inside of the golden coffins.
Bang, bang, bang…
A series of loud bangs could be heard as the coffins started to close again. The bigger coffins contained the smaller ones, one layer after another, the nine-layer coffins were returned back to their initial state. Then, the coffins lined up back to back and returned into the abyss like a black river.
The monarchs’ coffins entered the abyss and disappeared.
“What just happened?” Yi Wanjun mumbled.
“It appears that Mister Yi may have reached to the abyss’s core and seized control over the Fuxi’s Ancestral Court. The monarchs’ corpses and coffins, they seem to be all Mister Yi’s doing.” Hundun Yu said solemnly.
“By darling?” The ladies were in disbelief but couldn’t do anything but believe it. But 3,000 monarchs’ coffins and 3,000 monarchs’ corpses… it was such an awesome scene, how could it be a power that Zhong Yue could command?
But other than this explanation, were there any better reasons that could explain this?
After all, they weren’t stomped to death by the monarchs’ corpses; this would only make sense if Zhong Yue was controlling the monarchs’ corpses and made the corpses avoid them, right?
“A husband like this, what more can a wife ask for?” Shi Yinji said while filled with happiness.
Yi Wanjun rolled her eyes and Shi Yinji quickly hugged her shoulder, she smiled, “Husband is not mine alone, I’ll let Wanjun have half of him!”
Yi Wanjun sneered coldly, “Take it if you like it, I won’t fight with you!”
Shi Yinji said wildly like a heroine, “We are besties, what’s mine is also yours! Back then, I’ve always shared with you half of all my good things, now your good things are also half mine!”
Yi Wanjun was between laughters and tears.
Hundun Yu was blinking his eyes as he thought, These two ladies still don’t know it yet right? Mister Yi already has a family and two mistresses. Hmm, should I tell them… It’s fine, after all, it’s Mister Yi’s private affairs. I’ll just do my part and record it in the mirror.
…
Outside of the Ancestral Court.
In the ancient universe, the Evil Monarch Palace.
“Interesting, that little brat dares to leave us behind and take the shots for him. He has forced me to abandon an eye!”
A huge eye emerged behind the palace, it was filled with an evil aura. Even the grand and luxurious Evil Monarch Palace was not half as big.
Then, more eyes emerged from the void behind the palace. In just an instant, there were already countless eyes that filled the sky of stars!
“The other little brat is even more interesting. He seized control over the Ancestral Court right under our nose and commanded the 3,000 monarch corpses to attack us! This Fuxi little shit, he is becoming more of an eyesore! Hehehe, it’s about time we reap them yet another round… Xie Yang!”
In the Evil Monarch Palace, an evil god bowed and lowered his head, “Teacher, your orders?”
An eyeball flew out and turned into a bright mirror during its fall. Innate Evil Monarch could be heard saying, “Bring my mirror to the Ancestral Court, stay outside of the Ancestral Court and if you see an ancient ship with a thousand wings, shine the mirror at it.”
“As you wish!”
…
At the same time, in the Demon Monarch Palace.
Innate Demon Monarch awoke from his slumber and summoned his eldest disciple. He took out the Million Demons Banner and said, “Yuanlie, go to the Ancestral Court, if you see an ancient ship flying out of it, use my banner and swing it at the ship.”
Mo Yuanlie received the order, he kept the Million Demons Banner and left for the Ancestral Court.
…
In the Celestial Monarch Palace.
Innate Celestial Monarch summoned his disciple, Shen Xiage, and he said, “I’ve suffered two losses in the Ancestral Court, I will not let it slide. However, I cannot go myself lest I want to get caught up in a battle with those old foxes. I cannot defeat them all alone. Thus, I can only send you go.”
He cast up a Dao and as it was descending from the air, it turned into a golden rope. He said, “Xiage, go to the Ancestral Court, you don’t have to do anything. All you need to do is to cast this rope when you see a thousand-winged ancient ship flying out of the Ancestral Court.”
Shen Xiage bowed and answered, “Junior Martial Brother Qiushan and the others were also in the Ancestral Court, they…”
“Are unfortunately dead,” Innate Celestial Monarch waved his hand and said, “Hurry, no delays!”
Shen Xiage quickly brought the golden rope and left.
…
Zi Wei Galaxy, in the Heavenly Fire Barren Region.
A Tong Wu Tree towered in the midst of the heavenly river. Phoenixes of different colors were flying through the air, and there many palaces that were built on the tree leaves and the pink-colored Tong Wu Flowers.
The Tong Wu Flowers were exactly the sources of the unstopping heavenly fire.
“Senior Martial Sister Yuhuai, the grand ancestor summons you!” A phoenix lady fluttered in the air and shouted at another phoenix shrouded in fire.
The fire-shrouded phoenix answered and morphed into a beautiful maiden. She sported a pair of anklets and walked toward the Tian Feng Sovereign Race’s saint palace barefoot.
Feng Tian Origin Lord was sitting unmovingly. A fan flew out from the palace and she said, “Yuhuan, your junior martial siblings are unfortunately all dead. They died in the ancient universe, in the Fuxi’s Ancestral Court. Take this Heavenly Phoenix Divine Fire Fan with you to the Ancestral Court. When you are there, do not even try to enter the Ancestral Court. Wait until when you see a thousand-winged ancient ship flying out, you will then fan this fan at the surroundings.”
Feng Yuhuan was puzzled, “Those that are coming out from the Ancestral Court, are they the ones that killed Junior Martial Sister Yulan and the others? Grand ancestor, why did you want me to fan the surroundings instead of directly at the murderers?”
Feng Tian Origin Lord smiled, “I’ve given my orders and you will follow them exactly as I said. Don’t question too much.”
Feng Yuhuan received the order, turned and left.
…
Far north of Zi Wei, in an ancient innate sacred land.
Yuan Ya Deity King summoned a disciple and he took out a jade bottle that he has been secretly forging. He said, “Zhuo Ya, your senior martial brother is dead. Bring my Time Bottle to the ancient universe and wait outside of the Fuxi Clan’s Ancestral Court. When you see a thousand-winged ancient ship flying out, cast the Time Bottle and point it around the Ancestral Court. After that, don’t you look at wh at you’ve collected in the bottle but immediately turn and leave. Don’t turn back and look or you’ll find yourself dead!”
Zhuo Ya was puzzled, but he didn’t dare to ask much. Thus, he turned and left.
…
In the abyss, the monarchs’ coffins have finally returned, they were all levitating quietly in midair. Among one of the 3,000 monarchs’ coffins, one of it was empty. That would probably be Great Monarch Zhao Hua’s coffin.
Great Monarch Zhao Hua was buried by Dao Venerate Fu Min in the first stage, and thus, it was only natural his corpse wasn’t here in the coffins.
“Seniors, I swear here and now.” In the center of the floating coffins was a palace. Zhong Yue turned into his Fuxi True Form, revealing his true appearance and he bowed, “I, the Fuxi Celestial Race’s clan master, Zhong Yue of the Zhong Shan Clan, will one day in the future, recomplete senior monarchs’ atmans. The seniors’ atmans will be completed and returned to the Void World, there, seniors will have your worship!”
The 3,000 monarch coffins trembled, corpses sat up from the coffins and turned their heads at Zhong Yue. Their blank and dead eyes stared at Zhong Yue and voices of the 3,000 monarchs said in unison, gathering into a stream of loud noise!
“Young clan master of the Fuxi Celestial Race, cast the hilt of power, sign the Void Contract!”
3,000 streams of Daos surged out of the Void and formed into a huge board ornamented with Dao patterns. On the board, wrote Zhong Yue’s oath.
Zhong Yue held a solemn face while the innate divine saber consisting Dao Venerate Fu Min’s sword hilt emerged. The sword hilt was also known as the Power Hilt of the Heavenly Monarch, resembling the Heavenly Monarch’s ultimate supremacy of the Earth Order Era!
An essence emerged above Zhong Yue’s head and combined with the Power Hilt of Heavenly Monarch. Then, the sword hilt flew toward the Dao board and engraved its pattern on the board.
Voices of terrifying forces rumbled from within the monarch coffins. As all 3,000 voices merged into one, it shook his mind and soul as it spoke, “Dare you go back on your oath and break the contract, your soul will be rejected by the void eternally and the power hilt will come for your head itself! Your soul will be tortured endlessly as the monarchs feed on it!”
The Dao board crashed down and entered Zhong Yue’s divine third eye, hovering quietly in it!
Zhong Yue kept the power hilt, turned and entered the divine palace.
Dao Venerate Fu Min’s Power Hilt of The Heavenly Monarch was the key to the Ancestral Court. Right after he entered the abyss, the power hilt flew out on itself and seized control over all of the seals in the Ancestral Court. Through the power hilt, Zhong Yue too was indirectly given full control over the Ancestral Court!
One must say, Dao Venerate Fu Min’s arrangement was truly stunning. First, Zhong Yue was given the power hilt, giving him the key to control the Ancestral Court. Then, he was given the 3,000 spiritual pearls, providing him the foundation to sign the contract with the 3,000 ancient monarchs!
Right after, whether it be the Mystical Gate or the NIne Lives Black Wok Mushroom, or the rest of the stages, each was meticulously planned and arranged so that he could arrive safely to the destination and seize control over the Ancestral Court!
To be able to still have the plan carried out even after his death, one could tell just how incredible Dao Venerate Fu Min was.
The palace gates opened slowly. Sonerous Dao voices could be heard coming from the inside. They were the voices from Dao Venerate Fu Min’s era, chants of wisdom regarding the sixth secret realm from the countless monarchs!
After the Bloodline Secret Realm was officially instituted as the sixth secret realm, all the research on the other secret realms that were not made the sixth were now the most valuable materials and precious experiences on the upcoming seventh secret realm!
Zhong Yue stepped out of the divine palace and was met with a grand scene.
Before him, thousands and thousands of light wheels were revolving in midair. These light wheels seemed as though they were formed by countless stars. The starlights gathered together and streamed in circles.
These huge star wheels were tardily flying in the palace. Every movement they made would reverberate with a Dao voice across the hall, elucidating the marvelousness in each of the star wheels.
The Dao voices were the voices of the ancient monarchs and the star wheels were the secret realms they had spent all their knowledge and wisdom opening. Although these secret realms were incorrect for the Six Paths Reincarnation, they were invaluable experiences to the opening of the seventh secret realm!
And they were the exact reason as to why the Evil Monarch, Demon Monarch, and the others were here!
