Rise of Humanity

Innate Demon Monarch’s reason to kill Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was much more reasonable, after all, celestial and demon had always been enemies, making it natural for one side to kill the other. As for Innate Celestial Monarch on the other hand, his attempt to kill Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was merely to acquire more power!

Though Innate Celestial Monarch was the ancestor of all celestial races in this universe, in the ancient universe however, some did not pledge their loyalty to him; with Valley of Tang occupied by Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, many celestial races sided with the Jinwu Clan, speeding up their development and directly lowering Innate Celestial Monarch’s control over all celestial races.

Up until now, those in war with Celestial Monarch Jin Wu were Innate Demon Monarch’s disciple, Demon Monarch Yang Hou, and Innate Celestial Monarch’s disciples were nowhere in sight.

“We’re arriving in the Valley of Xi soon!”

Xing Tian’s eyes widened without a sign and he shouted, “Strange, this place feels familiar, as if it is calling for me!”

He, was born from the essence in Bo Xun’s head. As the innate god birthed in Valley of Xi, Bo Xun had a special connection to his birth place and naturally, Xing Tian would possess some kind of connection with the Valley of Xi as well, especially when he got closer to the Valley of Xi, the urge to enter intensified.

With the thousand winged ancient ship’s speed raised to the peak, Zhong Yue sailed swiftly towards his destination. At the front, vast galaxies slowly revealed itself and this one was never recorded in the star map; there was no sign of this galaxy anywhere in the star map.

“This place is still young.”

Monarch Chang Sheng looked around, examining every star that the ship sailed past, “They merely existed for about 100,000 years. They are not stars created by great presences but stars birthed by nature, which is very strange to me.”

“Valley of Xi is just right here! I can feel it!”

Xing Tian was head over heels upon catching onto something, he urged Zhong Yue to stop and after sniffing around, he shouted, “This is it! Strange, I felt it but why can’t I see it right now.”

“This is because this place is covered up by a scary existence!”

Monarch Chang Sheng’s eyes lit up as he channeled his energy, his enormous psyche spread across the place, sweeping past the dimensions and he said, “Innate sacred grounds are always born before the innate gods and the innate gods would always hide the innate sacred grounds away, to prevent from being found out by the enemies so this sacred ground is probably hidden away!”

Even with his powerful psyche, Monarch Chang Sheng found nothing after a sweep.

Zhong Yue frowned slightly for it was just as Monarch Chang Sheng said, the innate gods born in the innate sacred grounds would always hide the grounds away but the one who was born in Valley of Xi was the innate demon god, Bo Xun.

Bo Xun on the other hand, was long dead, its essence, who was now Xing Tian, was standing beside them so who was the one hiding Valley of Xi?

Could it be that this place birthed more than just an innate god?

Zhong Yue’s heart thumped quickly upon this thought for if this was how it was, then everything would be explained, why Valley of Xi was hid away but there were more mysteries to it.

Who is this innate god? And the innate god that is born corresponding to him?

How did Bo Xun die in the hands of the previous Xin Huo inheritor and why did he not revive in Valley of Xi?

What made Xin Huo go into slumber after the previous inheritor passed away?

In the battle between Bo Xun and the inheritor, what happened? What kind of incident is so strong that would even impact Xin Huo’s memories?

“I can’t find anything!”

Monarch Chang Sheng frowned after retracting his psyche, he shook his head and said, “That existence that hid the Valley of Xi away is beyond terrifying, he is definitely on par with the likes of Sinister Monarch, which suggests that he is an ancient Deity King! I can’t find anything at all!”

“The difficulty of finding the Valley of Xi after it is hidden away by an existence infinitely near Dao God level is undoubtedly hard, but Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, Innate Demon Monarch and the others fought all the way in and crashed into the Valley of Xi, the fight will definitely leave trails behind! Three Eyes Heavenly Pupil!”

With a roar, the divine third eye emerged, his eyes fired lasers that combined together and wherever his vision reached, everything was revealed and there were no more secrets; the dimensions turned into networks in his eyes, and his vision analyzed them swiftly, exposing even the nine layers of void!

One by one, tracks appeared, footprints, claws and hooves prints, there were also two other strange footprints belonging to some unknown races.

Trailing after the footprints, Zhong Yue later on found that these footprints vanished before a sun.

“Let’s go!”

The thousand winged ancient ship charged into the sun, crashing into it, with how fast the ship was sailing, it was only a blink of an eye and the ship had already dived past the sun, yet, it failed to exit from the back of the sun.

In the sun, something strange occured, the further the ship sailed into, the tinier it got; finally, the ship shrunk to the maximum extent but from the view of the four onboard, the ship remained the same, instead, it was the sun that was enlarging constantly!

To them, it was because of the enlargement of the sun that they couldn’t sail out from it!

After crashing into this place, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was injured and he attempted to recover his strength through this sun, only to fall into the enemies’ trap. Demon Monarch Yang Hou and the others want to kill him but Celestial Monarch Jin Wu revived himself through Valley of Tang, hence, Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s power attacked Valley of Tang to occupy that place to isolate Celestial Monarch Jin Wu.

Zhong Yue thought, Even though I wiped out all the demon races surrounding the Valley of Tang, if Demon Monarch Yang Hou manage to kill Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, then they would turn their attention to the Valley of Tang and given the strength of Valley of Tang, they would not be able to hold these dangerous foes off and Celestial Monarch Jin Wu will die still…

As he thought, a vast dimension appeared in his vision and a place beyond imagination revealed itself to them. Massive star ocean roared before them, at the center was a large black hole, sucking the dying suns appearing from nowhere into it!

The black hole even twisted the star ocean, from the opinion of the four, it looked just like a gigantic valley!

This place was much scarier than Returning Ruin’s black hole, it was filled with destructive power, but Xing Tian on the other hand, got all hyped up. He felt that there was some kind of comforting energy in the air surging through his body, and he murmured, “Uncle, something is calling for me, it feels like I’m back, back to my home… It’s so strange….”

Monarch Chang Sheng however, frowned, “This place is filled with the demonic power and this alone would impact the celestial Daos’ power. Junior martial brother, where is Celestial Monarch Jin Wu?”

“In the land of sun set, which is also in that black hole.”

Zhong Yue’s eyes locked onto the massive black hole and he said, “There is a sacred ground there and that is the real Valley of Xi, the place that birthed the innate demon god and Celestial Monarch Jin Wu is forced into this place right now.”

“That is also where the Chaos Lotus is?”

Monarch Chang Sheng’s eyes lit up, “The spiritual root of heaven and earth that is on the same level as the Fu Sang Tree…. One day, I will become a spiritual root of heaven and earth as well… Junior martial brother, with our strength alone, there is no way we can save Celestial Monarch Jin Wu. I can’t even use my full strength here, the environment is affecting my strength greatly! In this place, Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s strength is a few times stronger than his usual strength, the other demon monarch’s strength is amplified as well. With the decrease in our strength and increase in their strength, I couldn’t do anything at all, not only I will not be able to save Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, I might even risk dying!”

Shi Tuo nodded, “Same here, my strength increased by a quarter thanks to the prospering demon Dao right here! If Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s strength increased by the same amount, we….”

The ancient ship continued sailing and Zhong Yue blinked his eyes, “Senior Martial Brother Chang Sheng, worry not, I have some friends.”

Monarch Chang Sheng glanced at him before looking around, finding no other existences around and he thought, where are his friends?

Without a sign, destructive power came running out from the twisted dimensions in Valley of Xi’s black hole, the countless suns burnt into ashes, their power and heat spread across the land and turned into chaos Qi by the black hole. The Qi was then stirred around and chaos fire raged in the black hole but no light escaped.

Not even the light of the chaos fire could escape from the black hole!

The ancient ship creaked before this twisted power but it remain sailing forward steadily; after all, this ship was a product created by the combined power of the many ancient Deity Kings, granting it the capability to resist the black hole.

At the front deck, Xing Tian grew restless and he had the urge to jump right into the black hole.

Zhong Yue, on the other hand, frowned, for streams of demonic Qi and innate demon Dao was everywhere outside of the ship, entering Xing Tian’s body and boosting his strength without him knowing.

This speed was so quick that it was beyond imagination!

Am I doing the right thing by bringing him here?

He calmed his mind quickly after that, since they were already here, then he would have to set aside any other problems and focus on saving Celestial Monarch Jin Wu!

Finally, the ship arrived at the end of the black hole and when Zhong Yue looked around, his heart tightened when he saw the remains of the countless suns falling down from the skies. The Valley of Xi revealed itself before them, shrouded in thick chaos Qi and chaos fire.

Except that this massive sacred ground was already in ruins!

Lying before them was a shattered Valley of Xi, crumbling and being bombarded by the remains of the suns!

“What is this! What is happening?” mumbled Shi Tuo.

Xing Tian’s eyes widened and he said softly, “I can feel a sad presence, this is so weird, there heaven and earth Daos here are broken, they are crying….”

Monarch Chang Sheng’s expression changed, his eyes twitched, “A terrifying fight took place at this place, and Valley of Xi is destroyed by a dangerous existence! In that case, the other ancient Deity King born in Valley of Xi is probably dead, killed by his opponent!”

Zhong Yue’s heart squeezed again for he knew that the battle took place here was the battle that erased ancient Deity Kings!

A terrifying existence, found the base of the ancient Deity King born in Valley of Xi and struck him down here!

And thus was the death of an immortal ancient Deity King!

“Xin Huo, do you know when this fight took place?” asked Zhong Yue.

“No I don’t…. Wait! There is a familiar scent, it seems like a Heavenly Monarch’s presence of the Fuxi Celestial Race….”
