Chapter 365 – Xing Tian

Tian Mo Concubine and the ladies were stunned, Tian Mo Concubine’s eyes lit up, and she asked carefully, “Do you think you can beat Demon Saint?”

Zhong Yue shook his head and answered, “No, Demon Saint has a better foundation from his last life. But I will have to accept this challenge anyhow unless I choose to die here in the Fiend Capital today.”

Saint Concubine suddenly said, “Defeated by Demon Saint, you will die; defeat Demon Saint, you will also die. Both are paths that result in your death, so why accept the battle?”

She was right. If Zhong Yue were defeated, then he would obviously be killed, but even if he won, he would also die as he would have to go all out in against Demon Saint and doing so would expose his identity. That would eventually lead the eight saint clans to kill him!

Zhong Yue gazed at her and praised her intelligent in his heart, he then smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I will not die. Go do as I say.”

The ladies then summoned their clansmen, and they ordered them to spread the words while they continued accompanying Zhong Yue like his shadows. In their hearts, these ten days would be his last.

All of a sudden, Xin Huo said, “Brat Yue, I’ll teach you a few techniques, they are better than Demon Saint’s【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】….”

However, Zhong Yue shook his head and declined, “I’ve just attained the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】, I can’t even refine it to the peak and learning anymore will do me no good in this situation. Moreover, my focus will be distracted, and the completion of【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】will be delayed further.”

Xin Huo kept mum, Zhong Yue was right. The【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】was created by Zhong Yue to balance the celestial and demon cultivation base and also the Yin Yang Qi. Such a cultivation technique was already of a reasonably high grade and teaching him more techniques would only cause more distractions.

Furthermore, cultivating a new technique in just ten days to the level where it was viable to use against Demon Saint was merely impossible. Not only would it be a meaningless waste of him, but he would also become unfocused.

Tian Mo Concubine cast out her boat and ladies surrounded Zhong Yue, boarded the boat, and headed toward the Fiend Capital. In the boat, Tian Mo Concubine was staring intensely at Zhong Yue, and suddenly, she sighed and said tenderly, “Time is emotionless and what withered flowers would never bloom anymore. Mister, I … somehow miss you a lot.”

Zhong Yue laughed and answered, “You and I, we will one day meet again, there is no need to be like this.”

Ji Xiang Concubine then said, “Mister, you have yet to finish enjoying the Dance of the Sixteen Heavenly Demons, I shall perform it once again, this time, fully from the start till the end.”

“Good!” Zhong Yue clapped his hands and cheered.

Ji Xiang Concubine and the ten-some court ladies danced before him while Tian Mo Concubine and Saint Concubine played the music. The boat was filled with the laughter of the young demon ladies and the cheering of the young demon.

While outside of the boat, following behind them were the demonic clouds, the demon experts were eyeing the ship closely from a far distance, a preemptive action in case Zhong Yue tried to escape.

The boat moved slowly, and the Dance of the Sixteen Heavenly Demons was finished. Zhong Yue calmed himself and plunged into the cultivation state to refine his【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】while the ladies went up to the deck to avoid disturbing him.

Another two or three days passed, and they were still halfway to their destination. The ladies had many thoughts in their hearts. The clouds were white, and the birds flew leisurely across the sky, and when the boat flew over the top of a mountain ridge, a grand palace came into view. It was built on the edge of a precipice, and suddenly, a bright white light flashed across their eyes before disappearing into the grand palace. Saint Concubine was shocked, and she quickly used her Asura Divine Eye to look into it. She then exclaimed in shock, “Demon Embryo! The Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo has entered that palace!”

The ladies were all stunned, they then quickly looked down at the grand palace that was surrounded by a thick and heavy demonic Qi. From the looks of it, this would be the residence of an incredible existence.

Zhong Yue was awoken from his cultivation, and he walked out to the deck. Looking down, he saw that the demon palace was built atop the highest spot of the mountain. All of a sudden, a young child donning in short sleeve walked out like a waiter. He seemed cute and chubby, and unintelligible babble escaped his mouth as he bowed at them.

This little boy was precisely the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo that had escaped!

He didn’t know how to speak yet, and the babblings were the only things he could utter. His little arms and tiny hands were also incessantly pointing at the boat then the palace.

Zhong Yue looked at him from afar and saw the metal chains that were attached to his neck as if someone had captured him, Zhong Yue then said in puzzlement, “This Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo, it seems like he is trying to say something … His master invites me into the palace as a guest?”

“Master?”

The ladies were shocked, Tian Mo Concubine exclaimed in unbelief, “Who dares to be his master?”

The Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo was brought up by Demon Saint, and although it was still immature, the Triad Ritual have infused incredibly strong energy in it. Once the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo had fully digested the energy within him and learned to unleash his power, he would be nearly on par with a newly-ascended god!

Not only that, but this Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo was granted into life by Bo Xun’s scattered spirit. Just how strong was Bo Xun’s scattered spirit and once he had finished absorbing Bo Xun’s scattered spirit and acquired Bo Xun’s cultivation technique, his prowess would skyrocket at incredible speeds!

Yet, such a Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo now had a master? How unbelievable!

Such an invitation wouldn’t have much malicious intent. Even if there is some, someone that can be the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo’s master will be able to kill me on the spot here anyway.

Just as Zhong Yue thought about it, he walked down from the boat and turned back to look at the girls; he said, “Stay here and wait for my return, I’ll come back in just a few moments.”

The ladies watched as he walked into the demon palace and their hearts thumped with unease.

Zhong Yue reached the front of the demon palace, and the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo was still one foot in height and shifted his sights away from Zhong Yue as he was still clearly fearful of him. There were metal chains shackling his feet, creating sounds of metal clanking as he walked into the demon palace while babbling to Zhong Yue, “Yiya, yiya, yiyay….”

Zhong Yue followed him into the demon palace and smiled, “May I know who resides in the palace? Being able to capture the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo and even tame is really impressive.”

Then, a familiar voice answered his question leisurely, “How hard can it be? Capturing the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo wouldn’t be any harder than you breaking the Triad Ritual and causing the Creator to petrify, leaving him with no choice but to infuse the rest of himself into the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo as a final hope for resurrection. Such guile leaves even me in awe. Don’t you think so too, Junior Martial Brother Zhong?”

Zhong Yue’s eyes lit up, and a man in white walked out from the dark. If the white robe were described as the icy snow, then the blood stains on it would then be akin to the red plum flowers that bloomed in the winter.

The master of the demon palace came into his sights, and Zhong Yue raised his brows, the white-robed man was none other than the abandoned Swords Gate disciple, Feng Xiaozhong!

Feng Xiaozhong smiled, and the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo went to prepare tea for his master and his guest. Feng Xiaozhong invited Zhong Yue to be seated, and he said politely, “My place is still new, there is nothing much here, and I hope that Junior Martial Brother Zhong wouldn’t mind.”

Feng Xiaozhong sat down after Zhong Yue was seated, and he looked perfectly sane. With his appearance now, no one would ever believe that he was once a madman, but instead, would think of him as more of a noble scholar. He smiled and said, “I was just dissecting the bodies of a few demon gods for research purposes. So my clothes have been dirtied by the blood stains. I hope junior martial brother can forgive me for that.”

“Senior Martial Brother Feng is being overly polite.”

Zhong Yue remained outwardly calm, but his emotions were currently in turmoil. Dissecting a few demon gods? Where do these demon gods come from? Did this madman go digging up some demon god graves?

He said it so casually, and it seemed like his prowess has dramatically risen from before, possibly now to the point of an Imminent Deity Qi Practitioner!

While the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo tipped his toe and walked over, he reached his short arm out to the table and cautiously served them a cup of tea each.

Looking at it, Zhong Yue praised in his heart at Feng Xiaozhong for being able to tame this little demon.

“Senior martial brother, what’s his name?” Zhong Yue asked.

“Never thought of it before. I kept him alive only so that he can serve as a research subject and after I’ve completed the research on him, I’ll then refine him into a medicinal pellet.”

Feng Xiaozhong then said insouciantly, “Junior martial brother, since you and he have come across one another for so many times, why don’t you name him then? If it’s a good name then I might just let him live but if it sounds bad, then bad luck to him.”

Zhong Yue was speechless. The whole demon race was searching crazily all over the place for this Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo, and the eight saint clans were even planning to nurture him as the next Demon Saint. And yet, Feng Xiaozhong was here planning to eat this Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo!

“He is the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo, a beheaded innate demon god, and is now your research material….”

Zhong Yue mulled, and suddenly, he laughed and said, “So, why not he be named Xing Tian.”

The little boy winked his pitch-black eyes and looked at Zhong Yue curiously when he heard of the name of ‘Xing Tian,’ the little boy was overjoyed and he clapped his hand in exuberance.

“Xing Tian? Sounds good.”

Feng Xiaozhong nodded, he said, “Then I might as well let him live longer, he will serve as my servant. Junior martial brother, I’ve heard it as well, you are going to battle with Demon Saint? Do you think you can win?”

Zhong Yue nodded, he said, “No. Senior martial brother, are you inviting me over just to send me off?”

Feng Xiaozhong smiled gently in turn, and he said leisurely, “I’m a stranger in a strange land, and it is fairly impossible to meet with my own people. Of course, I will invite you over to gather together for some time.”

He was proud and complacent as he said, “What on earth is this Demon Saint? How can he ever be comparable to us of the human race? The powers in the human’s blood are limitless, and when unlocked, even ten Demon Saints could be killed in just a move! Junior martial brother, if you could let yourself become my test subject, then I can teach you how to open the sixth wheel, the sixth secret realm. With this, the Demon Saint would be just an ant you can crush at any time, what do you think?”

Zhong Yue finally understood what he was alluding to – the Fuxi True Form!

He, Feng Xiaozhong, had made a promise to Shui Zian, one that forbade him from harming any humans. Although Feng Xiaozhong was never a man of mercy nor kindness, he was still a man of his word. Hence, he would never force Zhong Yue to become part of his research, but if Zhong Yue were to volunteer to become one, then that wouldn’t count as breaking his promises.

Feng Xiaozhong’s eyes were brimming with a blazing fire, scrutinizing Zhong Yue as if he were an exquisite masterpiece of heaven and earth. He even nearly losing his control and almost pinned Zhong Yue to the ground to begin his research.

A chill was sent down Zhong Yue’s spine as he shook his head and declined politely, “Senior Martial Brother Feng, I’ve touched the edge of the Bloodline Wheel. Sooner or later, the Bloodline Secret Realm will be opened, and with your wide knowledge, you can clearly tell that my Yuan Shen’s blood essence was immense, more than any of my peers out there. I have already fulfilled the prerequisites to open the Bloodline Wheel!”

Feng Xiaozhong kept his blazing sights and answered leisurely, “Despite everything you have just said, you still can’t do it. You have yet to grasp the way to open the Bloodline Wheel, and you have no means to break the seal in our blood. You can’t open the Bloodline Secret Realm before the upcoming battle with Demon Saint, can you?”

Zhong Yue kept quiet, Feng Xiaozhong was right, he couldn’t dig the godly graves like Feng Xiaozhong and dissect the gods just so that he could see the sixth wheel. Hence, he was stuck from moving any further and was only able to continue dancing around the fringes of the sixth wheel.

The opening of the sixth wheel and the breaking of the bloodline seal was something that couldn’t be done in a short period of time.

“I can exchange the ways to open the Bloodline Secret Realm from Senior Martial Brother Feng with treasures, can I?” Zhong Yue suddenly asked.

Feng Xiaozhong laughed, he said, “I’ve been to many godly graves and tombs, I don’t need any divine weapons nor any divine demon weapons.”

“Then how about this?” Zhong Yue took out the Demon God Contracted Puppet and placed on the table as he said smilingly.

“This is….”

Feng Xiaozhong picked it up and looked carefully at it, his interest was piqued, and he said, “Demon God Contracted Puppet? No wonder you dare to accept Demon Saint’s challenge. With this thing, you will have nothing to fear in this world! Do you really want to trade this thing with me?”

刑天 (Xing Tian) – A Chinese deity, an official under the Fire Emperor against Yellow Emperor for the position of supreme god. After Fire Emperor’s defeat and decapitated by Yellow Emperor, his head buried in Changyang Mountain. Nevertheless, headless, with a shield in one hand and a battle axe in the other, he regenerated himself and continues the fight, using his nipples as eyes and his bellybutton as a mouth, and continued his defiance, which was expressed by a martial dance.

Status: Ongoing Type: Author: , , Released: 2015 Native Language: Chinese
In the world birthed by Pangu, the Three Sovereigns lit the spark of humanity that the Five Emperors would later fan into a blazing fire, eternally branding humanity as the leaders of the world…. This was a time where twilight had descended on the reign of the Human Sovereign and the Five Emperors had yet to emerge – humanity was merely one of the myriad races wandering about the vast cosmos. This was a desolate and barren era. The monsters, devils, heavenly gods, and deities of all races stood aloft; with the demons, heavenly souls, and spirits dancing freely around the world. The humans were still a feeble and burgeoning race, often taken as livestock and offered as sacrifices to the pantheon of races that ruled the world together from within the great wilderness. This was not the era of the Foreworld, but the barbaric and untamed era of uncivilization! Let us rewind back to China’s ancient and classical mythology and recount the legendary tale of how a single figure led humanity out of an epoch of darkness and into a new dawn. Please sit back, relax and enjoy the (Rise of Humanity) !
