Rise of Humanity

Chapter 898: Homeland

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Endless divine light emerged far away; the light was formed from complicated totem patterns that turned into alluring Six Paths light halos!

Then a mysterious and unique Dao voice that sounded like the chanting of the countless living beings in the universe sounded out. It was the chanting of Goddess Shen Hou as she walked out from the Six Paths Reincarnation.

These ancient innate gods’ Dao words were difficult as its pitched and cadence had incredible variance. Zhong Yue had learned some of the words chanted by Goddess Shen Hou but there were others that he had never heard of.

The ancient innate gods’ Dao words chanted by Goddess Shen Hou then merged with the Dao voices from Six Paths Reincarnation and perfectly synchronized with each other without any conflict, filling up each others’ weaknesses and giving off a very charming and unique feeling.

The sound was extremely loud and as she continued chanting, this sound became louder and louder as it slowly overwhelmed the chants of the many undead!

Goddess Sen Hou resisted the endless undead army all by herself and her Dao words were definitely more than just mind-blowing!

Zhong Yue tried to feel the Dao words carefully; after Feng Xiaozhong’s advice, Zhong Yue now understood the proper way. He no longer persists to learn the Dao words’ pronunciations but tried to give his best in feeling the meaning behind the lines in order to understand the Dao words.

Gradually, he finally understood the meaning of the Dao words chanted by Goddess Shen Hou.

As soon as Zhong Yue reached this understanding, an undead whose flesh was slowly growing suddenly collapsed to the ground and the skeleton became reduced to specks of dust.

Zhong Yue’s heart thumped but things did not stop here; the Six Paths light wheels behind Goddess Shen Hou enlarged, shrouding the entire Zhen Tian Star Continent and from the light wheels came mysterious and rumbling Six Paths and Reincarnation Dao voices, which resonated with Goddess Shen Hou’s Dao words, further increasing the might of her Dao words!

Hua la—

The undead collapsed into dust and started crumbling one by one.

Suddenly, the powerful Creator and Imperial Emperor level undead roared, as if unwilling to die again as they all reached towards Goddess Shen Hou in the center of Six Paths Reincarnation!

However, before they managed to touch her, their fingertips turned to dust before the effect crawled through their arms and out to the rest of their bodies.

The faces of the monarch undead twisted as they roared. Monarch level patterns flew out, wrapping around their arms and slowing down the dustification on them before they charged towards Goddess Shen Hou.

…

All of a sudden, without a sign, the ancient ship trembled and dragon roar was heard again; Shi Long had taken control over the ship and rammed the ship towards Goddess Shen Hou!

Zhong Yue’s expression changed right away and so did Yin Fanxuan’s and Chuo Long’s; with strength rivaling Goddess Shen Hou’s and with the addition of the few monarch level undeads, Goddess Shen Hou might not be able to fend them off!

Ka cha—

From the bow of the ancient ship emerged a massive dragon head before dragon claws stretched out, clawing deep into the ground and tearing the heaven and earth apart!

Goddess Shen Hou, however, remained calm and continued her chantingss.

“The dust returned to dust, the soil returned to soil, and the souls have returned to the ground;”

“The Six Paths born, the Six Paths gone, Fu Min controls life and death;”

“The dead died, the living lived, Reincarnations come and go.”

…

The dimension in the Heaven Suppressing Star Continent twisted and a massive projection of a great monarch. It was summoned by Goddess Shen Hou through the innate godly language and the heaven and earth Dao boomed; Goddess Shen Hou’s Six Paths Reincarnation became even studier, grander and more powerful!

“Great Monarchhh——”

Fu Qizhi teared up right away and he knelt before this projection of the massive great monarch.

This great monarch had a human head and a serpent body filled with dragon scales. It felt like that the great monarch was standing at the opposite end of their time and dimension, summoned by Goddess Shen Hou. Zhong Yue was stunned as he saw this great monarch.

It was the projection of Dao Venerate Fu Min.

But Dao Venerate Fu Min was no more; his body was dead and his spirit was gone. What appeared before them right now was just the residual spirit summoned by Goddess Shen Hou. He was the one who made the creation of the Six Paths Reincarnation come true, an unparalleled contribution he has brought to the universe.

And it was this exact same great deed that his figure was branded down by the universe, leaving his own mark in this universe even after his death.

Now, Goddess Shen Hou had summoned his spirit to stop the revival of the ruler from the prehistoric era. It really was an irony that it was the many gods who killed Dao Venerate Fu Min yet now, they still needed him to save them for they were entirely powerless before the revival of the dark ruler.

The few monarch undeads shrieked but their shrieks did not last long as an invisible force immobilized them, dragged them towards the Star River. They were swallowed by the waves in an instant!

“Nooo!”

Shi Long roared while the scales on his body detached, fell onto the ground before vanishing and his flesh rotten and he quickly turned back to a skeleton with his head nailed onto the ship’s keel!

The skies cleared in an instant as soon as Dao Venerate Fu Min appeared, the eerie scene just now was no more; the Deity Kings’ projections that walked out from the Dark Age has vanished and the innate godly light pillar that shot out from the ancient ship disappeared.

Zhong Yue, Chuo Long and the others immediately felt the weight on their shoulders cleared but Goddess Shen Hou was still nervous and she had her guards up still.

Her vision glued onto the projection of Dao Venerate Fu Min and she looked at him with complicated feelings mixed with unwillingness and decisiveness.

The projection of Dao Venerate Fu Min then gradually came to life; blood, bones, flesh, all started forming as he too, was affected by the “Fu Sheng’ Dao words, he was about to come back to life!

“Lord…”

Tears rolled down from the cheeks of the many ancient universe’s humans and they all looked at Dao Venerate Fu Min with respect and admiration.

Zhong Yue too, was as complicated as Goddess Shen Hou; at one side, he Dao Venerate wanted Fu Min to come back to life so that he could see this legend for himself but on the other side, he did not want him to be resurrected.

Meanwhile, Goddess Shen Hou’s gazes became sharper and sharper as she slowly made up her mind. She stretched her hands out, condensed her energy onto her palms while she trembles and murmured, “My lord… You should know that even if you are resurrected, you are no longer you. Your soul and spirit are long gone… That man is just trying to use your spirit to return your body back to life but you won’t be truly resurrected! You… should rest in peace …”

Dao Venerate Fu Min turned around, from Zhong Yue to Chuo Long, Yin Fanxuan, then the humans and Feng Xiaozhong, he slowly shifted his gaze from one to the next.

His body became even more corporeal while the “Fu Sheng” Dao words were still echoing in the air.

Goddess Shen Hou’s complicated expression suddenly disappeared and she was about to erase Dao Venerate Fu Min from existence for she knew that things couldn’t be left unattended any longer; if Dao Venerate Fu Min’s body was revived, with his soul and spirit no longer around, it will become an asset to that man in the future!

Suddenly, a voice came from the gradually realized Fu Min Dao Venerate’s body, “Senior martial sister, you don’t have to do this, I just want to take a last look at this universe.”

He left the Heaven Suppressing Palace and walked in the void. After a moment of hesitation, Goddess Shen Hou left while her sigh echoed in the air.

…

“Xian Tian, seal Xian Tian Palace right away!”

In Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s forehead sounded a rumbling voice. It was his teacher. Through the eye in Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s forehead, the evil existence urged.

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian immediately followed the order and sealed the palace closely before an intimidating figure shrouded the palace, pressuring Imperial Emperor Xian Tian so strongly that he was no longer able to breathe. And along with him was the other demon true body he had hidden within the palace!

The Imperial Emperor was in shock as he felt that mind and soul was overshadowed by a massive figure and it was only when the massive figure left that he could finally regain his ability to breathe again.

Dao Venerate Fu Min’s projection walked among the land within the universe. With each step, he covered a massive distance and he took a stroll in the universe like he was still that unrivalled Heavenly Monarch in the bygone era, like the monarch of Heaven that patrolled his land.

From one end to another, Dao Venerate Fu Min walked past a lot of places and when he arrived at the north of the Zi Wei Galaxy, passed by an ancient sacred ground that was completely dead silent under his presence for no living creatures dared to make a single noise.

There was, however, an ancient existence that trembled in fear and this existence hid himself deep away, afraid of revealing himself.

Dao Venerate Fu Min walked past the Lightning Desolate Dark Ruins, where an ancient dragon head reached out and the two of them looked at each other from afar.

Then, he reached the evil existence’s palace where the gates were shut dead with not a single silt left exposed. From the palace came a sore and quivering voice that said, “I’m not afraid of you… Not before and definitely not now!”

Dao Venerate Fu Min left this palace after that and he walked on the Heavenly River and arrived at the Heaven Court, where a mixed feeling Heavenly Monarch Di Ming greeted politely, “Dao brother…”

“Di Ming, you are just the Son of Heaven and he is the strongest Heavenly Monarch throughout the universe’s history, you are unfit to address him as Dao brother!”

The Heavenly River boiled as a massive ancient turtle emerged, looked up at Dao Venerate Fu Min’s projection and grumbled, “After your death, I did not join the others and worsen the situation, so don’t come blaming me now!”

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s face flushed and he stood aside as Dao Venerate Fu Min walked away while wanting to attack but too afraid to do so.

Dao Venerate Fu Min’s projection walked out from Zi Wei and arrived at the ancient universe; wherever he passed, silence followed and occasionally, there would be a few extremely ancient beings that sent him off with their eyes.

“You’re already dead, why come back?” asked a terrifying existence while Dao Venerate Fu Min passed by him.

Dao Venerate Fu Min, however, did not even answer as he continued moving forward, moving around as if he were travelling at the lands he once ruled; he arrived at the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds, stopped at each world and looked at these planets that he single handedly created.

And finally, he arrived at the abandoned planet, the original first Six Paths World that was later destroyed and replaced by the second Six Paths World.

The Returning Ruins was destroyed but on the Returning Ruins Continent, there was a massive palm that has turned into a mountain, the Five Finger Mountain. It was pressing on the continent downwards, suppressing something beneath while it trembled nonstop, the totem patterns on the mountain were flickering from time to time.

Dao Venerate Fu Min then stood before this mountain, which immediately stopped mountain from trembling and a quivering voice said, “It’s not me! I have nothing to do with all of this…”

After that, Dao Venerate Fu Min walked away and arrived at Ancestral Star in the end.

The humans in Ancestral Star felt a shadow covered the sun and when they looked up into the skies, their mind went blank and they looked at the appearance of this massive giant.

Dao Venerate Fu Min’s projection descended, looking down at this unassuming blue planet and set his eyes onto the place where the Fuxi’s ancestors were buried. His body was not buried here like his ancestors’ were as it was destroyed while it was halfway being transported here.

A warm bright smile has gently radiated across Dao Venerate Fu Min’s face and suddenly, his body turned into specks of dust that eventually turned into a mountain.

“I’ve returned, my homeland.”
