The Star Torrent Fortress organized a celebration; the many humans celebrated the amnesty happily. After being imprisoned for three years, Mu Suge was finally released and to compensate him, they treated him with various delicacies.
Zhong Yue, on the other hand, was invited to another sacred ground within the fortress, which was the Fuxi Celestial Race’s saint palace.
In the long hallway, Zhong Yue looked at the ancient pictures carved onto the walls where the history of Fuxi Celestial Race was recorded.
He walked this hall as if he walked through the history where the Fuxi Celestial Race gradually turned into humans, witnessing his own people’s resistance and the brave fallen souls of his race. He also saw how the Fuxi Celestial Race’s survivors struggled in the direst situations, wandering everywhere in search of a chance of survival for their descendants.
He then saw how they finally became humans and the disparity in them were lively carved into the pictures in the walls. In the end, the final Fuxi clan master carried a human baby in his hands, raising it over his head and below him were his people that teared in joy over the newborn.
Facing against this new life, the clan master accepted the fact that they had all turned into humans and everything in this picture made Zhong Yue feel very poignant.
As he passed the hall, he witnessed the growth of the humans, the building of the Star Torrent Fortress, the Fuxi Celestial Race’s branch elder leading the humans before finally being struck down by the Heavenly Warden.
The 80,000 year epic of humanity was one of legendary resistance; finally, they managed to find their ground in the ancient universe as wanderers.
“Fuxi, this way please.”
The human old man that sat on the pale skeleton throne was now extremely awake and along with another few white-haired old man elders, he led Zhong Yue to the palace center.
This place was its own universe, a dimension forged by the branch’s clan master. What appeared before Zhong Yue’s vision were countless memorial tablets. On the front, starting with the Fire Order Era’s Great Sui times, the memorial tablets were placed in order; the Fire Order Era Sui Sovereigns to Earth Order Era’s creator, Fuxi Celestial Race’s Pao Xi, then the final Fuxi monarch, Fu Min and finally, the last clan master from the Fuxi Celestial Race’s branch.
Behind their memorial tablets were even more names that Zhong Yue did not recognize.
The history of these brave individuals was entirely erased in the outside world but their stories were clearly written down here. There was a saying that went, a race is not truly extinct until the last vestige of its history has been erased.
The humans out there had forgotten about their ancestors and knew nothing about the glorious civilization their ancestors once had and the powerful era they ruled.
But here, the ancestors’ stories and history were carefully preserved. As long as the history was remembered, there will always be a chance for the descendants to restore its former glory!
Zhong Yue carved the history into his head and in his ears rang the singings that sung about the stories of his ancestors detailedly, recounting their past glory to him in vivid detail.
After some time, Zhong Yue said bitterly, “Why don’t you make a divine statue for them? I’ve seen their spirits in the void, they… they’ve writhed….”
“Our prayers couldn’t reach into the void.”
The human old clan master, Fu Qizhi sighed, “If we made a statue and prayed to the ancestors, there would be heavenly lightning that descends onto these statues and the Heavenly Wardens will follow soon after. Throughout these years, countless of our people were killed just like that because of this. With that, everyone gradually stopped praying to the ancestors …”
“They’re really trying to force us into extinction.” said Zhong Yue after a moment of silence.
Fu Qizhi nodded, “It’s directly related to Heaven. Back then, when we, the survivors tried to bring forth an ancestor’s spirit, reverse our fate, but we couldn’t even summon one and instead, we were ambushed. We didn’t even manage to obtain a single ancestor’s arts and in the end, we even lost our ancestors’ civilizations. Fuxi, after 80,000 years, you’ve finally surface again. Perhaps, the spirits of our ancestors could not bear to see us plunging ourselves into extinction where our people are eaten alive like sheep.”
Zhong Yue shook his head and said, “Clan master, there are still Fuxi in the Zi Wei Galaxy. I even saw the previous Fuxi Celestial Race’s clan master, Feng Changyang and his people in the State of Heavenly River….”
“They are not Fuxis! They are just pets kept in cages by those that want to annihilate us.”
Fu Qizhi said coldly, They are nothing but traitors! We may be humans but all of us are far more loyal than any of them in Zi Wei!”
An elder humped, “Especially that clan master who knows nothing but entertaining himself! We tried to get in touch but all we got was disappointment!”
Zhong Yue frowned and said, “There is a Fuxi lady called Si Ming. Her bloodline is purer than mine and her talents put mine to shame.”
“That girl?”
Fu Qizhi and the elders exchanged looks and they shook their head in sync, “She’s not a real Fuxi. The only true Fuxi remaining in this world is probably just you.”
Zhong Yue was in great shock and he exclaimed, “She is not a Fuxi?”
“I’m afraid not.”
Fu Qizhi said, “There is something that you must know, please come with us.”
Zhong Yue followed behind them right away and Fu Qizhi continued, “Our branch’s Fuxi Celestial Race’s clan master is also a wise and powerful one but he was born in the wrong time. He had planned a lot for the rise of our race again and there is a measure he left behind. This measure is an empowered and magnificent weapon prepared for any Fuxi that appear again in the future. It has been worshipped and prayed at for 80,000 years but 600 years ago, we grew impatient and we awoke this weapon.”
What appeared before Zhong Yue now was a half Heavens. It was called a half Heavens because it was not completed; half of it was carved within the saint palace and the other half hidden within the dimension where countless stars were contained.
It’s Reincarnation system was not perfect as well; a perfect Six Paths Reincarnation consisted Heaven, Earth, Celestial, Myriad, Elemental and Hell Realms, each formed from a great presence’s six great Yuan Shen Secret Realms that were corresponding to the Dao Yi, Yin Yang, Shen Cai, Wan Xiang, Wu Xing, and Bloodline Wheels.
And in this half Heaven, it only has a Reincarnation formed from the Bloodline Secret Realm.
With just the Bloodline Wheel contained within this half Heaven, it suggested that this half Heaven possessed something of amazing power related to the bloodline.
Under Fu Qizhi’s lead, Zhong Yue entered this half Heaven and his eyes twitched right away; the planets here were one after another crimson colors, each formed by the purest Fuxi Celestial Blood!
The countless planets represented countless drops of Fuxi Celestial Blood!
“The Fuxis that fled here extracted their celestial blood to forge this half Heavens with only one purpose, to hatch the weapon I talked about.”
Fu Qizhi brought Zhong Yue to the core of the Heavens, where an altar was at the centre with a massive machine formed from complicated divine weapons on top of it.
This was a Nature Weapon of unbelievable power!
Apart from the sacred feeling emitted from the wonderful totem patterns carved onto the altar, Zhong Yue also felt an uneasy evil feeling!
He stood there with an empty mind for a long time before he exhaled deeply and murmured, “This is not fair….”Fuxi, this is your weapon, a weapon that will self evolve! Once the weapon reaches its peak form, it will possess power that not even the entire universe could fathom!”
Fu Qizhi shouted, “Fair and justice? Did the world treat us fairly? Or did Heaven treat us fairly?”
Zhong Yue remained silent.
With a fire of anger burning in his eyes, Fu Qizhi added, “We’ve prepared ourselves for 80,000 years just for this weapon. We have been refining it all these years. 80,000 years! Just imagine how many people and Fuxi that poured their efforts into forging this weapon! Once the weapon reached its maturity, the Six Paths in the entire universe will be in your hands! If we Fuxi can create the Six Paths Reincarnation, we also have the power to bring it down!”
After some time, they exited and returned to the saint palace while Zhong Yue was still in confusion; the Nature Weapon was too terrifying but the weapon created by the Nature Weapon was the real deal! It was an ultimate weapon that took 80,000 years to be created!
But…
Zhong Yue sighed and thought, I hope I won’t have to use this weapon….
Fu Qizhi said, “Fuxi, there is something buried the Ancestral Star’s land of origin. But we couldn’t locate the land of origin even after searching for 80,000 years in the ancient universe. The time gap is just too big. It was sealed away by the Great Sui approximately 2 million years ago. It is really crucial for our future, we must find it!”
Zhong Yue gave this a thought and he asked, “Have you been recording the star map of the ancient universe these years?”
“Of course.”
Fu Qizhi answered, “We wandered everywhere and our footsteps could be traced into every corner in this universe, of course we recorded the map!”
Fu Qizhi immediately brought a disc to them and with a quick activation with psyche, countless stars emerged from the disc, filled up the saint palace’s space while the stars moved in their own destined trajectory.
“I need to study it for some time.”
Zhong Yue kept the star map away and said, “I still have to go back to Zi Wei, take a look at how the stars moved so that I can locate the land of origin. You guys stay in the ancient universe for the time being and only head towards Zi Wei upon receiving the royal scroll of amnesty from Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.
Fu Qizhi nodded and Zhong Yue immediately left. In no time, he arrived at the pale skeleton saint palace, where Mu Suge was dead drunk. After waiting for a few days, Mu Suge finally woke up from his sleep and he immediately got up and said embarrassed, “Mister….”
Zhong Yue waved his hand and said, “I know where is Fu Shu right now.”
Mu Suge’s attention was drawn right away and he shouted, “Where is he?”
“Bought by my old enemy, Wu Dulang. He is already dead.”
Zhong Yue’s expression tightened up as he said, “Innate demon god, Wu Dulang set up a banquet in the demon land’s Capital Wu and ate him in front of his guest. Your Highness, we should leave the fortress soon. With your Tiger Jiao Calvary also bought by Wu Dulang, I’m afraid that Wu Dulang has already located us and we are in the ancient universe right now. If we don’t leave now, we will be in trouble!”
Mu Suge shivered and he immediately said, “Didn’t the humans promise to surrender? Are they no match for him as well?”
Zhong Yue shook and explained, “Without any official confirmation, do you think the humans will risk their lives for you and me? Wu Dulang is after all an innate demon god and the humans are constantly sitting on the fence. If Wu Dulang finds us here, perhaps the humans will sell us out instead of helping us! The best move we have now is to leave as fast as we can while we still can!”
