Rise of Humanity

Chapter 210 - A Girl That Came Looking For Someone

Qing He’s lips curled in self-satisfaction as she thought of this. The prospect of her eventual rescue allowed her to keep her composure while staying in the Storm Courtyard as she waited for Xuan Keep to save her. But little did she know that her junior martial sisters in Xian Kong Saint City were only lost in gossip about her ‘marriage’ to Master Long’ and that they failed to notify the higher ups of Xuan Keep.

The senior martial brothers and senior martial sisters of Xuan Keep will definitely come to save me and Zhong Yue can only be scared to death by that time!

A few days later, a tremendous surge of energy could be felt coming from Zhong Yue’s room. When Qing He quickly look towards his room, she saw the image of a 20-foot tall deity with six eyes that looked like moons appearing above of Zhong Yue’s room.

The third Yuan Shen form!

Qing He looked again in shock to find that the deity had disappeared to be replaced by an eight-limbed, seven-eyed deity with a vertical eye on the forehead!

The eight-limbed Ming King and the six-eyed deity merged together and they became even more strange yet much more powerful!

This Long Yue has achieved the third Yuan Shen form in just a short time!

Qing He felt nothing but shock as she murmured, Just how long has it been since he entered the Awakening level and yet, he has already managed to achieve the third Yuan Shen form…

Some Qi Practitioners were stuck in the Spirit Nurturing level for their entire life, failing to step foot into the realm of Rebirth until their deaths.

While some others would only take months or years to ascend into the Rebirth level from the Spirit Nurturing level; this was where talent came in.

At every level, only a minority of the Qi Practitioners would manage to exceed their capabilities and enter the next level.

In this world, there were truly some exceptionally talented individuals that were able to cultivate much faster than the others but someone like Zhong Yue was the first Qing He had ever seen.

“Will he become another magnate figure for the monsters in the future?” murmured Qing He.

Suddenly, the eight-limbed deity disappeared as Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen changed rapidly again into the Six-Eyed Starry Toad that lay on the ground. Zhong Yue then frowned and said to himself, “Strange, how am I not able to maintain the third form any longer?”

As soon as he achieved the third Yuan Shen form, he immediately sensed the immense power hidden in the third Yuan Shen form and after stimulating the 【Monster God Ming King Art】, he felt that the power was increased by two folds. But without much time to relish in this new-found power, his Yuan Shen quickly reverted back into the second form.

He then tried to cast the third Yuan Shen form again, only to discover that there was no more energy in the Wan Xiang and Shen Cai secret realm, thus, preventing him from using the third Yuan Shen form.

“Why is thing happening? Could it be that my third Yuan Shen form just now depleted the energy in the secret realms?” said Zhong Yue in a very low voice.

Xin Huo on the other hand, stood at the shoulder of Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen and he suddenly flew into the body of the Yuan Shen and entered the Dao Yi secret realm. He then ran out from the Dao Yi secret realm and ran into the eyes to observe the Yin Yang secret realm before entering the Shen Cai secret realm.

Not long later, this little flame observed the entire five Yuan Shen secret realms in the body of Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen and he said, “Brat Yue, the problems are with the five great secret realms and your Wu Xing and Shen Cai secret realms have far more power than the other three secret realms. The energy needed to cast the third Yuan Shen form is incredibly huge and because of the lower energy capacity of your other three secret realms, they are insufficient to maintain the third Yuan Shen form. If you want to be able to sustain it any longer to obtain more power, you’d have to cultivate the five wheels to the peak level!”

Zhong Yue frowned slightly as his Wu Xing secret realms had achieved the highest level through absorbing a mountain of soul weapons while the Yin Yang secret realms had managed to achieve the same through the Yin Yang secret realms of a godly spirit.

As for Dao Yi secret realm, he’d have to muster energy from the other four secret realms to enhance and strengthen the Dao Yi secret realm.

And all of these required a huge span of time but with his plans of leaving Xian Kong Saint City soon, time was not something he had in his favor.

Xin Huo flew out from his Yuan Shen’s body and said again, “To average Qi Practitioners, even a slight difference in the strengths of their five secret realms would prevent them from achieving the third Yuan Shen form. As for you, as someone with an incredibly vast gap in the strengths of your five secret realms, you could be considered as very good already considering to you were able to even achieve it at all.”

Zhong Yue sighed and he thought to himself, I could only maintain the third Yuan Shen form for around seven minutes and in that short period of time, it may be difficult for me to escape from the monster Qi Practitioners.

Atman level Qi Practitioners were just too strong, seven minutes was simply too short a window of time for Zhong Yue to escape from their pursuits.

All the while, during this time he was in secluded cultivation, he was unaware of the waves he caused in the Xian Kong Saint City with his return.

News about him slaying the monster Qi Practitioners that were after him only reached Xian Kong Saint city a day ago and as soon as the news was known, the city had erupted into an uproar.

After successfully escaping from the encirclement of a few Atman Body level Qi Practitioners and defeating the two of the best Awakening Qi Practitioners, Yuan Ji and Hua Feiyu, in just one hit, Zhong Yue had been widely acknowledged as the strongest monster Awakening level Qi Practitioner!

Details of his journey also provided some insights and clues about his horrifying power!

“Long Yue lives up to his name as the final disciple of Saint City Lord, being able to kill so many strong Qi Practitioners that blocked his path towards Xian Kong Saint City!”

“The Meng Family has suffered heavy losses on the young Qi Practitioners and the young Qi Practitioners of the Ying Family were completely wiped out!”

“The Tu Family also suffered the same fate. All of them were killed underground before even having the chance to emerge!”

“None of those that went after him were able to return alive!”

…

Meanwhile, in the Saint City Lord hall, the news had also managed to reach Shi Buyi through his psyche even though he was in the most crucial part of cultivating the sun and the moon eyes.

This magnate figure of the monster race had also experienced a tremendous change in his emotions as he became aware of Zhong Yue’s return. His face changed as he thought, My youngest disciple… You dare to even return to the Saint City and even with such commotion? Such audacity. Haha, dragon race, are you all so desperate to get back onto the land?”

He suddenly opened his eyes and above his two eyes, the sun and moon eye opened on top of his eyes. With the four eyes, Shi Buyi looked incredibly odd.

Suddenly, the two new eyes immediately closed back and blood dripped out from the two eyes and in no time, a blood pile was formed on the ground.

I failed again… The sun and moon eye cultivation art that Long Yue passed to me is definitely right so why am I failing again and again?

Shi Buyi let out an angry roar from his throat and after a moment, he thought again, Could it be that I am cultivating in a wrong way? Hold on, let me try again! I wonder how Lang Qingyun is so bad in handling the matter this time that he has yet to kill Long Yue…

In the Flattened Wave Courtyard of the Saint City, which was also the courtyard of Lang Qingyun, he frowned and stared at the soul lantern in front of him before he sighed and said, “There is no turning back now. During the last encounter we had in Gu Xia City, he must have figured out that I was the one who stole the soul lantern and notified the other Qi Practitioners of his location so that they could ambush him on the road. He will definitely become an enemy of mine in the future if he doesn’t die …”

“After our Xiao Mang Celestial Race conquers the Great Wilderness, we will definitely invade the East Barren. If he were to grow up right after Shi Buyi dies, he would definitely become another obstacle for the Xiao Mang Celestial Race. Fortunately for us, he is very ruthless and has killed countless of the younger generations of the many monster factions. He has already sealed his own fate with his actions.”

“All I gotta do is just pull the strings from behind and wait for the various factions to finish off the dirty work. Too bad for me, as much as I want to kill him, I cannot kill him myself or Shi Buyi who wants to kill me as well would definitely have sufficient reason to do so if I were to personally end Long Yue’s life …”

Zhong Yue walked out of his room and when Long Chun’er and the three other girls handed up the account books, he briefly looked into them and he said, “As the final disciple of Shi Buyi, there are actually that many precious items that were distributed to us. Chun’er, keep them up and we will depart after another few more days. By the way, list out the best resources for me as your master wants to craft eight soul weapons!”

Long Chun’er and the others immediately scattered after receiving his orders and in no time, they had prepared the various precious resources Zhong Yue needed.

Zhong Yue started crafting the soul weapons; he used the sun fire to melt the various minerals and used the Qi of the moon to remove the impurities so that he could guarantee the quality of the soul weapons.

This time, he was crafting the soul weapons for his combat Yuan Shen.

The Combat Yuan Shen of the 【Monster God Ming King Art】 has eight limbs and in each hand, he held one soul weapon. Other than that, the 【Monster God Ming King Art】 contained unique crafting methods for each of the soul weapons.

With that, the soul weapons crafted according to the ways recorded in the 【Monster God Ming King Art】 would become tightly related to the Combat Yuan Shen, which could greatly enhance the combat power of the soul weapons and the Combat Yuan Shen!

Previously, Zhong Yue was very poor and he had no ways to gather the various materials needed to craft his own soul weapons. He had only a Fang Blade and all the eight soul weapons used by his Combat Yuan Shen were formed with his very own power and psyche, which were somewhat strong but no any stronger than the real soul weapons.

But now, since he had become Shi Buyi’s final disciple, he was granted with territories that would produce sufficient resources that could allow him to craft his own soul weapons.

And as he managed to craft these eight soul weapons, his overall strength would definitely increase again and together with the Ba Ji Slaughtering Arrays and the third Yuan Shen form, he would be able to fight head-on with Atman Body cultivators!

“Junior martial brother, I am really sad that you did not come looking for me after you have arrived in the Saint City!”

Suddenly, a seductive voice could be heard outside of the Storm Courtyard and Zhong Yue’s psyche moved, dragging all the newly crafted eight soul weapons back into his own Yuan Shen’s secret realm before he led the girls to get the door.

As they opened the door, an alluring woman walked into the courtyard. She wore a slightly transparent blouse that wrapped around her well-developed chest and there were two ribbons that dangled down from her arms. She was the second disciple of Shi Buyi, Chi Liannu.

Then, Chi Liannu lifted up her long and pretty legs and entered his courtyard. There was nothing on her legs save for a very short silky skirt on her waist that barely covered her thighs.

And the silky skirt was just too thin, simply failing to even conceal the bounciness and firmness of her butt. Every one of her strides would be accompanied by a playful jiggle of her behind that made it seem like they would burst out from the feeble restraint of her skirt.

This girl was just too alluring - a perfect seductress. The other girls instinctively felt a sense of wariness and danger upon seeing her and an inexplicable hostility rose up from within all of them.

Chi Liannu however, did not deign to pay them any mind as her vision swept over them before landing on Zhong Yue. After she dismissively measured the other girls, she said with a smile, “Junior martial brother, so you were having your pleasure time with these girls during these days of hiding? What are you guys playing? Could I tag along?”

Her curvaceous body leaned towards Zhong Yue and before she could land on Zhong Yue, he quickly took one step back and said quickly, “Senior martial sister, stop joking around with me. What do you want from me, senior martial sister?”

Chi Liannu’s face turned serious and she said, “Of course I have a serious matter. I am here to dual cultivate with you through an ancient dual cultivation art. I came to you because I couldn\'t find any partner better than you. You and I will be able to achieve even more together and besides, you are my junior martial brother and I am familiar with you, thus, I selected you as my partner. Junior martial brother, you already have five mistresses. I assume you wouldn\'t mind adopting me as the sixth one, right?”

Qing He became speechless and she immediately and emphatically disputed, “I am not his mistress!”
