Chapter 697: Display of Power

“Dao Yi Wheel, Dao Yi Secret Realm…”

Zhong Yue and the others were stunned; judging from what King Geng said, the Heaven Realm was created from the Dao Yi Secret Realm of an ancient one.

If that was how it was, did that mean that the other realms of the Six Path Worlds were formed from the Yuan Shen Secret Realms of the ancient ones?

The Heaven Realm was the Dao Yi Secret Realm, the Earth Realm as the Yin and Yang Realm, Celestial Realm as the Shen Cai Realm, the Myriad Realm was the Wan Xiang Realm, the Elemental Realm was the Wu Xing Secret Realm, and the Prison Realm was the Bloodline Secret Realm?

And the Pan Gu Celestial that lifted up the Six Path World was the ancient one’s Pan Gu Celestial? This was beyond imagination!

“Rumours said that the realms in all Six Path Worlds are actually Yuan Shen secret realms,” added King Geng again, “The so called 3,000 Six Paths Worlds are actually the Yuan Shen secret realms of the 3,000 unimaginably powerful existences. We have been living in their secret realms for our entire life. We are all simply frogs in a well…”

“How is this possible…” murmured Li Tianxing.

It was just too preposterous a proposition to accept. What kind of existence could create countless sun, stars, and creatures in their Yuan Shen secret realms, even allowing the Heaven Court to be built on it with the Realm Lords and Realm Monarchs merely being ancillary supporting cogs.

“Of course, that is all just heresay. No one really knows the true story.”

King Geng said, “You can take it as a joke. What is more important now are those from the Celestial, Earth, and Heaven Realm. Not only are Qi Practitioners that have reverse opened all wheels not uncommon there, but there are even those twin innate spirits that cultivated the Six Paths Reincarnation technique who are equivalent to the combined power of Brother Yu and Zhong. They are all formidable opponents.”

Everyone’s heart gripped as they felt the mounting pressure. Zhong Yue and Yu Bochuan were the creme of the crop among them; just how scary was a Qi Practitioner who was as strong as the both of them combined?

Though Li Tianxing and the others were all the best Qi Practitioners from the Prison Realm, but when compared to those from the upper realms, they were nothing particularly special.

With their position so high up in Heaven Realm, Earth Realm and Celestial Realm, those judges from Hell would easily be bribed by them whenever they wanted to have their descendents reborn into a better life and even choose their desired spirit bodies!

And if a sufficient amount of wealth was offered, twin innate spirit bodies or even five innate spirit bodies at the same time was not out of the question!

This was something that had been going on in Hell for a very long time, but five innate spirit bodies were hard to obtain even with bribery as it could only happen once in a few million years.

The combined power of Yu Bochuan and me? Are they really that strong?

Zhong Yue’s heart sank. Even if King Geng did not know the true limits of his strength, Zhong Yue was still able to infer how strong his opponents were when King Geng used him as a comparison.

Right now, his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, he could even dare to say that he was not quite as strong as King Geng, then he was still on the same level as him. However, he was still not very confident that he could win against King Geng when it came to a life and death battle.

Now, it was about time for them to compete with those from the other three realms, and he inevitably got nervous; only by competing stronger opponents could he continue to improve himself!

Meanwhile, the Prison Realm Lord’s ship sailed into the continent of the Heaven Realm with Zhong Yue and the others standing at the bow of the ship. They saw a mountain that occupied a huge area of land and on top of that mountain was an ocean sprinkled with islands that was home to a myriad of powerful celestial.

There was also a sun and moon orbiting the mountain, forming a unique astronomical system beyond comprehension.

Below the mountain, there were huge and small nations, each emitting powerful auras as they worshipped their own respective gods. The living beings in these nations were also from the celestial races, except that they had lower positions.

And there was more than just a mountain like that; each of these mountains had a strong celestial and demon race living in them, and some even had more than just one sun and moon circling around them.

The ship of the Prison Realm’s Realm Lord was extremely huge already, but it was effortlessly dwarfed by these gigantic mountains.

The Heaven Realm is really stunning.

Zhong Yue was awestruck as he looked at these godly mountains that were larger than planets, and he couldn’t help but feel complicated. As a person that had come from a small backwater place, when did he ever witness something like this?

The ship sailed straight toward the Lesser Void Heavenly Saint Realm. It was the saint realm that was closest to the Heaven Court, the place in which the Realm Monarch resided. This time, the great competition was taking place here, and when the competition began, the Realm Monarch and Realm Lords, as well as various other large influences, would be present to spectate the battles.

Upon reaching the Lesser Void Heavenly Saint Realm, the purity of the spiritual energy elevated a level further, to the point that it condensed into mists and clouds!

“Even a swine will become a god if it cultivates here!” murmured Zhong Yue.

Hearing this, those around him immediately gave Zhong Yue fierce gazes, and Bai Canghai immediately tried his to conceal his presence, which made Shi Buyi on the other side say, “Little brat from Bai Zhe Clan, if you say this out in front of the other gods and demons from the Heaven Realm, you will be skinned alive.”

Husan Weng nodded immediately upon hearing this as he was very supportive of this statement.

Finally, the ship sailed into a huge area of compounds and it slowly descended. As it landed, someone welcomed them immediately and the person shouted happily, “Realm Lord Fa, it has been so long! I am here to welcome you and your people by the order from the Realm Monarch! Please, this way!”

“Thank you, Celestial Emperor Ai Shan.”

The Prison Realm Lord, Fa Zhaozhen, alighted from the ship and greeted the person that welcomed him before another few goddesses arrived. Under the goddesses’ guidance, Zhong Yue, King Geng and company went into the palace to get some rest.

“You guys came from a place slightly further away from the Heaven Realm, the others are already here.” Celestial Emperor Ai Shan looked at Zhong Yue and the others and he praised, “Wonderful talents we have here. This competition is bound to be an interesting one with all of you present.”

The Realm Lord of Prison Realm, however, forced himself to squeeze out a smile at Celestial Emperor Ai Shan’s sarcasm.

After all, the Prison Realm was the weakest realm among the six realms; it was already good enough if they could win against those from Myriad Realm and Elemental Realm, and he did not even have his hopes up since the beginning.

“The Qi Practitioners of the Prison Realm are here? Is King Geng with you? The King Geng that competed for the position of the Realm Monarch.”

Suddenly, a very burly voice echoed out and everyone turned toward that direction. They were greeted with the sight of a group of Qi Practitioners walking toward them. The leader of the group was a handsome young man that shouted, “King Geng, I’ve heard of your name for a very long time but have never had the chance to meet you, not to mention to witness the tough battle between you and the Realm Monarch, which is quite a shame.”

King Geng slightly became happy and he walked out and said, “I am. May I know your name, brother?”

He was quite proud of himself and couldn’t help but to look at Zhong Yue as he thought, I wanted to recruit you but you kept on giving me excuses, forcing me into becoming your younger brother. How could you possibly know how famous I am?

The young man walked forward and introduced himself, “I am Wu Yangsheng of the Heaven Realm, an unnamed pawn here. I admire King Geng for being able to compete with the Realm Monarch and I am eager to compete with you. Hmmm… Since it’s hard to run into King Geng, why don’t we compete in one on one battle here? Let us decide who is stronger right now!”

As soon as he was done talking, he dashed forward with lightning speed and slammed his palm towards King Geng. As he swung his hand, the power of Six Path formed in his palm before it condensed into an energy dragon that flew straight toward his unfortunate target.

The attack was so sudden and had an extreme brutality. The fierce winds whipped up by the attack were so strong that it sent some of the people around them flying into the compounds around them.

Seeing this, everyone’s hearts turned heavy.

Powerful.

Immense power!

This man might be an Imminent Deity Qi Practitioner, but the strength he had just revealed belied that. His strength was enough to stand out among even the gods and what he cultivated was obviously a Six Paths Reincarnation technique that allowed him to launch powerful attacks!

His strength is perhaps about the same as King Geng!

Zhong Yue thought as he took in a deep breath.

Meanwhile, before the smile on King Geng’s face could even fade away, the young man’s attack was already in front of King Geng. The latter quickly tried to repel the attack man. With a flip of his palm, he channeled power into his palm and created an energy ball that collided into the young man’s attack.

Boom—

The windows and glasses along the street shattered under the powerful impact and shockwaves spread everywhere.

King Geng let out a silent groan, backed off slightly as he was caught off guard; he couldn’t even get himself ready and he was suppressed by Wu Yangsheng as the calculative Wu Yangsheng came fully prepared.

However, with King Geng’s strength, and his countless different Innate Galaxy Spirit Bodies, he was able to see through Wu Yangsheng’s weaknesses and exploit them.

On the other hand, Wu Yangsheng delivered another attack, and the power of Six Path Reincarnation flowed in his hand as another Dao totem pattern in the shape of a phoenix flew towards King Geng. It was another type of Dao!

This Wu Yangsheng cultivated two types of Dao!

After two strikes, Wu Yangsheng stopped attacking and he said in disappointment, “Petty Qi Practitioners like you can’t even stop my attacks and yet you dare to compete with the Realm Monarch? You really have no shame. I thought you were good, but now, it seems like you were just a clown.”

King Geng’s face turned beet red as he looked at Fa Zhaozhen angrily.

Fa Zhaozhen frowned slightly and when he looked at the Realm Lord standing on the other end, he said, “Realm Lord Hua, what is the meaning of this?”

The Heaven Realm Lord burst out laughing and replied, “This is just child’s play. One day, they will face each other on the battlefield and now, they are just having a peek at each other’s’ strength. Please don’t mind them, Realm Lord Fa.”

As they conversed, a Qi Practitioner under Realm Lord Hua smirked and said, “The Prison Realm is just so weak. The famous King Geng is merely a clown that couldn’t even take on two attacks from Senior Martial Brother Wu Yangsheng. Seems like your competition this time will end badly again.”

King Geng was angered greatly and suddenly, Zhong Yue laughed and said, “My younger brother, please patient and let me help you.”
