Bo Di, Dong Ah, and the others quickly rushed towards Bi Yuan and they finally felt a little bit more at ease. Zhong Yue followed them and when Bi Yuan saw him, he said with a frown, “Human? A disciple under Yan Sovereign?”

Bo Di and the others immediately explained Zhong Yue’s origin to Bi Yuan, “Senior Martial Brother Bi Yuan, Yi Feng is an innate god reincarnated into a human. Without him, we would probably dead by now.”

“A reincarnated innate god?”

Bi Yuan’s eyes flashed as he turned his gaze toward Zhong Yue, he smirked and said, “How is it possible that an innate god was actually reborn, not to mention reincarnating into a human? Who are you?”

As he spoke, he unleashed his aura, unvealing his power as a Deity Emperor!

Zhong Yue frowned right away while Dong Ah and Xi He quickly said, “Senior martial brother, our teacher had investigated Yi Feng’s origin and he confirmed that Yi Feng is indeed a reincarnated god. Senior Martial Brother Yi Feng also defeated the Weapon Ancestor and fought on par with Tian Xuanzi.”

“If King Zi Guang looks into this matter, then there will be no problem.”

Bi Yuan had a shock and he quickly dispersed his presence before apologizing, “Mister Yi, please forgive me for my impudence. With the body of a human, you defeated the Weapon Ancestor and were able to stand toe to toe with Tian Xuanzi. Mister Yi is indeed a reincarnated innate god bestowed with great power!”

Zhong Yue shook his head and said magnanimously, “No offense taken.”

Bi Yuan nodded back at Zhong Yue and after that, he bowed toward Royal Prince Wen Chang, “Your Highness.”

“Skip the formalities.”

Royal Prince Wen Chang said, “It’s been a long time, Bi Yuan. How about we go for a drink?”

Bi Yuan replied, “I would’ve drunken with Your Highness but my teacher ordered me to bring my junior martial brothers and sisters back. Bi Yuan will pay a visit next time and make it up to Your Highness. Zhu Shi Celestial Clan’s senior martial brothers, I will take my leave now.”

Weapon Ancestor suddenly expressed that he wished to send them off, to which Bi Yuan quickly replied, “Please halt. You don’t have to go through with the problems, we appreciate it.”

He then gave Bo Di and the others a signal and left quickly.

After they walked out from sacred land Imperial Granary, Bi Yuan took out a divine statue and contacted Xian Tian Palace, “Eldest senior martial brother, we are out of the Imperial Granary already and are on our way back now.”

On the other side, the Weapon Ancestor frowned and after they left sacred land Imperial Granary, he looked at Royal Prince Wen Chang and asked, “What is the meaning of this, Your Highness?”

Royal Prince Wen Chang glanced at Tian Xuanzi who immediately said, “Now that I’ve helped as promised, it’s time for me to leave. See you!”

After that, he left immediately from sacred land Imperial Granary.

Inside sacred land Imperial Granary, Royal Prince Wen Chang sighed, “What is the meaning of this? I’m here to pay the Zhu Shi Celestial Race a visit but never did I think that the Xian Tian Palace would be running amok here. Imperial Emperor Xian Tian has tremendous power but his power is not as strong as my father’s. In truth, his majesty wished to triumph over Xian Tian Palace and it’s entirely up to Zhu Shi Celestial Race to decide for themselves.”

Weapon Ancestor’s expression turned gloomy and he immediately had a Deity Emperor look for their old ancestor.

After a while, the Deity Emperor returned with the old ancestor’s message and he whispered softly to the Weapon Ancestor, “According to his words, the Heavenly Monarch became the Heavenly Monarch because of the heaven’s will and he is still standing on the peak of his state now.”

The Weapon Ancestor understood what the old ancestor meant right away and he said, “Do not disgrace the clan. Send Bi Yuan and the others out politely.”

Beside him, the Celestial Emperors nodded in sync and left right away.

Weapon Ancestor then looked at the royal prince and said, “Your Highness, our Zhu Shi Celestial Race is forever loyal to his majesty. I hope that your highness put in a good word for us in front of his majesty.”

Royal Prince Wen Chang burst out laughing right away and said, “Of course. Now, they said the scenery around the sacred land Imperial Granary is very good, why don’t you show me around?”

Though having said that, the Weapon Ancestor knew deep down that Royal Prince Wen Chang wanted to see the death of Bi Yuan and the others in their hands so that he could rest easy.

Outside of the sacred land Imperial Granary, Tian Xuan traveled at full speed, allowing them to catch up with Bi Yuan and the others in relatively short time. He charged right past them and said softly, “Run, quick!”

Bi Yuan frowned and before he could react, Tian Xuanzi was already gone from his sight.

Bo Di then said, “Senior Martial Brother, he is warning us, he must have known something. The Zhu Shi Celestial Race humiliated us this time and I couldn’t hold myself back and killed a few of their people. I suggest we get back to Xian Tian Palace as soon as possible…”

Bi Yuan sneered, “What’s wrong with that? Are they even brave enough to ambush us?”

Zhong Yue quickly added, “They wouldn’t dare to act against us without tacit consent from the Heavenly Monarch. But now, they will definitely attack us to show their loyalty to the Heavenly Monarch. After leaving their territory, I fear that they attack us even in your presence.”

Bi Yuan was very polite to Zhong Yue and replied, “You are right. But Mister Yi knows little of the hidden power of our Xian Tian Palace. The entire world knows how strong we are. The Zhu Shi Celestial Race would be out of their minds to attack us.”

Hearing this, Zhong Yue immediately said, “But it’s best if we remain vigilant for now. Brother Bi Yuan, I suggest you contact Xian Tian Palace and request for reinforcements.”

“You are overthinking, Mister Yi. But there is nothing wrong with your suggestion. I will contact them right now.”

With a divine statue, he tried to contact Xian Tian Palace, but his eyes twitched suddenly and his expression turned extremely serious. He looked around and whispered, “Mister Yi, I’m afraid that I was wrong and you were right. I can’t get in touch with them now and it seems like the Zhu Shi Celestial Race have made up their mind to kill us all!”

Zhong Yue looked around as well only to see nothing abnormal around them; the skies and earth was the usual one they saw but the fact that Bi Yuan failed to contact Xian Tian Palace suggested that the heaven and earth here was already sealed up by some kind of power!

“Let’s go!”

Bi Yuan swung his hands and his sleeves wrapped around everyone immediately before he hurled them all into the light wheels behind his head and said, “It’s not that easy to seal the heaven and earth, especially when I am a Deity Emperor. They will have nothing on us if I manage to get out in time! Now let’s see who is faster, me or their sealing!”

The Deity Emperor’s speed was truly horrific; innate Qi shrouded Bi Yuan’s legs like giant serpents, bestowing him with tremendous speed no lesser than that of a Creator.

“Bo Di, as soon as we escape the seals, you contact Xian Tian Palace right away!”

With a gloomy expression, Bi Yuan said, “How dare they lay their hands on Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s disciple! Tell them to raise an army and step on the entire Zhu Zhi Celestial Race flat with no mercy!”

Behind his light wheels, Bo Di and the others nodded and they looked around worryingly with the divine statue in their hands, fearing that they would be attacked by the Zhu Shi Celestial race that jumped out from the dark.

All we can do now is hope that Senior Martial Brother Bi Yuan can get out alive smoothly!

Bi Yuan stomped on the ground heavily as he ran away quickly but suddenly, his expression turned drastically and he stopped. He looked around with a gloomy expression and after a few seconds, he lost his voice and shouted after that, “Why is the sky still the same?”

His innate Qi was given by Imperial Emperor Xian Tian; the Imperial Emperor bestowed him with an innate Qi that was personally cultivated by the emperor himself and allowed Bi Yuan to cultivate it later on. After nurturing the innate Qi for some time, Bi Yuan had completely turned it into his own.

And with this innate Qi, Bi Yuan’s speed far surpassed even a Creator, not to mention a Deity Emperor.

Thus, after sprinting for such a long time, he should’ve crossed a few thousand planets by now. Yet when he stopped, the sacred land Imperial Granary was still right behind him and the stars appeared to be unchanged.

In truth, the divine weapon that locked the dimension of the heaven and earth here was rather heaven-defying; it twisted the dimension, essentially locking Bi Yuan into place, rendering his speed useless.

Cold sweat fell from Bi Yuan’s forehead and he murmured with a sore voice, “They’ve used the Imperial Granary?”

“What do you think Imperial Granary is? It is an item tracing back to the Earth Order Era, a divine weapon forged by an Earthly Sovereign! Bi Yuan, please do not mock the Imperial Granary, the Imperial Granary is not even needed to deal with you!”

A burst of mocking laughter rang out as Celestial Emperor from Zhu Shi Celestial Race descended from the skies. In his hands was a round granary that emitted bright and alluring totem patterns. These totem patterns were a few thousand miles long and they extended right towards the end of the dimension.

When Zhong Yue looked into these patterns, he noticed that they were all sealing totem patterns and he took it that it was this granary that sealed the dimension around them!

The Celestial Emperor laughed and said, “This item is a replica of the Imperial Granary created by our old ancestor! It might be a replica, but it has a portion of the Imperial Granary’s power, which is more than enough to deal with you.”

“An item created by the Zhu Shi Celestial Race’s old ancestor?”

With a grave expresison, Bi Yuan sneered, “You are Zhu Zhengshi? Don’t you think that you have all underestimated me for sending just you? I will need no more than three moves to kill you!”

“Do you think I am the only one here to deal with the Imperial Emperor’s sixth disciple?”

As he spoke, coughs were heard and seven white haired old Celestial Emperors appeared from nowhere, each older than another and their white hairs waved around.

Zhong Yue’s heart thumped upon this scene; with eight Celestial Emperors standing against one Celestial Emperor and a few more pawns, they will definitely not end up well.

And Bo Di and the others were already wallowing in their despair by this time.

“Mister Yi, dear junior martial brothers and sisters. Please forgive me for being not considerate and careful enough. I’m sorry for not being able to bring you all back.”

Bi Yuan said softly and after taking a long deep breath, he said, “Zhu Shi Celestial Race is way too daring, don’t you think? They are determined to kill us all and this battle will not be an easy one. Listen to my command and run as fast as you can on my signal. After that, contact Xian Tian Palace to help me right away!”

“Still thinking of fleeing? Are you still dreaming?”

An old Deity Emperor sneered and said, “Hang the Heavenly Lanterns!”

Countless lanterns then flew towards them. Within these lanterns, there were layers of brandings that illuminated brightly.

When these heavenly lanterns appeared, a few hundred sealing totem patterns appeared as well and after these seals merged together with the heavens and skies, the seals around Zhong Yue and the others became even stronger.

“Let’s go!”

Bi Yuan shouted as he poured his energy to activate the innate Qi, which wrapped around Zhong Yue before turning into a spear that was hurled by Bi Yuan with all he could. The thrown spear then pierced right through the sealings in the dimension without stopping.

Ding——

This innate divine spear landed onto the final seal and the pseudo Imperial Granary trembled vigorously before it flew out from the Deity Emperor’s palms.

The eight Deity Emperors’ expression changed slightly and they swarmed towards Bi Yuan, who thought with a pale face, I am sorry, dear junior martial brothers and sisters. If I focused my attention to destroy the seals for you, I will be injured heavily by these guys…

With a shake, Bi Yuan shrugged off Zhong Yue and the others within the innate Qi as he charged towards the eight Deity Emperors.

On the other hand, without piercing right through the pseudo Imperial Granary’s seals, when Zhong Yue and the others were thrown off, they fell right into the seals.
