Rise of Humanity

Zhong Yue was startled, he couldn’t help but curious over the strange name. The Reincarnation Burial Ground, a burial ground for the Reincarnations?

Jin Hexi was puzzled as well. Clearly, she too, didn’t know such a place exist in the ancient universe.

“There are five worlds in this cosmos, the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds, the ancient universe, Zi Wei Galaxy, Void World, and Dao World. But rumors had it there was a sixth world, the Reincarnation Burial Ground was said to be the sixth world in this cosmos.”

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu said, “I’ve been there once too. The rules of heaven and earth there is, different from the rest of the worlds, hmm, very, very distinct…”

He held a weird expression as he continued, “There, the rules were strange and bizarre. A few monarchs in the ancient days were said to come from there. Their cultivation base and Daos were different than ours. Rumors said it was the sixth world, you should head there sometime if possible…”

Jin Hexi asked, “The 3,000 Six Paths Worlds are where the mortals lived, the ancient universe belonged to the innate gods, the Zi Wei occupied by the postnate gods, the Void World is where spirits reside after death, and only Dao Gods can live in the Dao World. If the Reincarnation Burial Ground is the sixth world, then what is it?”

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu said, “After the living beings die, their spirits reside in the Void World. But where to after their spirits have died?”

He paused for a second, then continued, “It was said that after the spirits die, they will reside in the Reincarnation Burial Ground. But what puzzled me is that the Reincarnation Burial Ground didn’t become a world of its own, but remain part of our ancient universe. I don’t know why exactly. The last time I was there, I was placed in great danger and I stepped away from it. I suspect, there may be an ancient Deity King living in it! Furthermore, I hear that one of the six demon monarch races, the Diling Clan, comes from the Reincarnation Burial Ground.”

“Diling Clan?”

Zhong Yue was surprised.

There was a Diling Clan expert, Di Yue, involved in the battle on Jinwu Clan’s Valley of Tang. But he was killed by Zhong Yue and the Fusang Divine Tree.

What a shame I didn’t capture him as a slave back then, Zhong Yue sighed in his heart.

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu struggled to get up, he said, “Little in law, I will not follow you in your expedite. My injuries have yet recovered and the attack on the demon races needed my presence.”

Zhong Yue thanked, he said, “Hundun Yu and I will suffice.”Read more at L isnovel

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu thought, “Oh, the little guy from the Hundun Clan? Those in the Reincarnation Burial Ground will most likely show the Hundun Clan some face. With Hundun Yu by your side, you might be safer.”

Then, he visualized the map to the Reincarnation Burial Ground and imparted it into Zhong Yue’s mind. Zhong Yue studied it carefully and found it being at a strange location.

The ancient universe shaped like two plates facing each other horizontally. Most galaxies were located in the space between the plates with only a few on the outside. Whereas the Reincarnation Burial Ground was not anywhere in between the plates!

There was no top and bottom in the cosmos. But if one has to fixate the Zi Wei as the top, then the Reincarnation Burial Ground would be placed at below of the ancient universe.

It was a region far away from the ancient universe. One has to travel through the vast land of nothingness where nothing exists for a long time before reaching it.

Furthermore, the Reincarnation Burial Ground wasn’t even huge, it was just a tiny spot compared to the whole of the ancient universe.

No wonder the star maps given to me by Mu Xiantian and Fu Li didn’t have this place. It sure is hard to locate. Furthermore, the land of nothingness has nothing for one to navigate his way through it, it’s incredibly easy to get lost in it. In addition, the Reincarnation Burial Ground is shrouded in eternal darkness, if lost his way, there will be no way back anymore.

Zhong Yue mulled. He has the incarnations he could leave behind as beacons to help him navigate his way to the Reincarnation Burial Ground, he should be able to do it.

“Celestial monarch, do you know Monarch Chang Sheng?” Zhong Yue probed, “I hear from Monarch Chang Sheng he was originally Dao Venerate Fu Min’s saint herb. It was Dao Venerate Fu Min that gave him the chance to cultivate and eventually he became a monarch. It is also his medicinal efficacy that saved you this time.”

“Monarch Chang Sheng is Dao Venerate Fu Min’s saint herb?”

Celestial Monarch Jin wu was surprised, then he thought and said, “Back in the ancient days, I sure saw him close around Dao Venerate before. But I don’t know if he is Dao Venerate’s saint herb. Beings like him who’ve cultivated from a saint herb are very sensitive over their true nature. It was not wise for me to ask much.”

Zhong Yue pondered. There were mysteries clouding the truth on Monarch Chang Sheng, but at the moment, he could only still trust him.

After a few days, Zhong Yue waved goodbye to Celestial Monarch Jin Wu and parted ways with Jin Hexi. He and Hundun Yu went on an expedition to the Reincarnation Burial Ground.

Along with them were Xing Tian and Shi Tuo. However, they weren’t following him to the Reincarnation Burial Ground. Zhong Yue would pass by the Ninth Divine City on his way and he would make a stop to leave them there. Afterward, Xing Tian and Shi Tuo would make their own way back to the Imperial Star.

I wonder how is Monarch Chang Sheng now… On the deck, Zhong Yue thought, Now, he should be back in Zi Wei already I guess?

…

“Senior Martial Brother Xiang Mo, here you here!”

In the demon land of the ancient universe, a galaxy where demonic palaces were raised everywhere. Demon Monarch Xiang Mo was the supreme ruler to the tens of demon races living in this galaxy. Most of them were his descendants but these demon races were no monarch races.

This was because Demon Monarch Xiang Mo has a mixed bloodline himself. Furthermore, he has nine heads and countless wives. Thus, his descendants were all different from one another, there was not a united race among his descendants.

Some of them have the elephant-headed and human-bodied, some were elephant-headed but dragon-bodied, some were elephant-headed and spider-bodied. Their looks and the bloodline in them were not uniform, thus, they were not considered one of the demon monarch races and they were not up to match to the monarch races either. At most, they would add up as a strong demon race among the rest of the demon races.

At this time, inside of the grandest palace, Demon Monarch Xiang Mo’s face changed drastically. He looked at the incoming man with the eyelids of his remaining four heads thumping heavily. He shouted, “Chang Sheng, how dare you come to me, who gave you the courage to confront me! I am a disciple to Demon Monarch, are you not afraid of my teacher killing you!?”

Monarch Chang Sheng strolled leisurely in the palace, touring himself around as he appreciated the luxurious decorators in the palace. He smiled and answered, “Don’t boast your own courage here. You are already a monarch, but why are you still so timid? I am feeling shame for your timidness. As for threatening me with Demon Monarch, are you trying to mock my intelligence? Where is it? Hand it out now. You should know why I’m here.”

Demon Monarch Xiang Mo’s fats were quivering but he didn’t move for a long time.

“Don’t you try anything stupid. Five of your heads are cut away and diminished and the Six Paths Reincarnation in your body is shattered. You are no match for me.”

Monarch Chang Sheng said calmly, “You know my prowess, not even you in your peak state can defeat me, let alone now when you only have at most thirty percent of your overall prowess. Hand me the thing I want and I will spare your life.”

Demon Monarch Xiang Mo kept quiet for a moment, then, he took out a saint herb and tossed it to Monarch Chang Sheng.

Monarch Chang Sheng was overjoyed to receive the saint herb while the saint herb was shuddering heavily. It was blooming in bright colors before but once it was in Monarch Chang Sheng’s hand, it started to wither as its medicinal efficacy was sucked away from it.

In just seconds, the saint herb was reduced into a pile of ashes.

Meanwhile, Monarch Chang Sheng’s aura grew stronger. His eyes were closed like a foodie appreciating a delicacy. Satisfaction could be clearly seen in him. After a while, he opened his eyes and murmured, “Two thousand six hundred and forty-six more…”

“Chang Sheng, you’ve had what you want, why don’t you leave now?” Demon Monarch Xiang Mo said solemnly.

Monarch Chang Sheng nodded, he turned and left.

Demon Monarch Xiang Mo heaved a breath of relief as he watches Monarch Chang Sheng leaving, he whispered softly to himself, “This brat, he wants to transcend as a heaven and earth spiritual root? Hehe, him becoming a spiritual root, that’ll make him a herb to the ancient Deity Kings too…”

Shua—

Huge roots suddenly pierced through the demon palace and curled around Demon Monarch Xiang Mo. Then, countless smaller roots have made their ways into his body through the openings and pores on his body. They drilled into his Yuan Shen and crazily sucked on his blood essence, psyche, and Daos!

The demon palace crumbled into ruins while countless roots raised Monarch Chang Sheng in midair.

“Caught you, I’ve caught you!”

Monarch Chang Sheng smirked, “It’s rare to bump into a weakened monarch like you, wouldn’t it be a waste if I don’t consume you?”

Demon Monarch Xiang Mo was shocked and angered, he shouted, “You!”

Immediately, huge roots drilled into his mouth while Monarch Chang Sheng smiled, “Me? Me what? Not keeping my promise? I never said I was a promise keeper, but you trusted me? What a fool, you should’ve signed the Chaos Pact with me first before handing me the saint herb. That way, I will be sure to keep my hands off you. Hehehe, you all think the saint herbs are your nutrients, your delicacies. But in my eyes, you lots are the food and the nutrients! I need all of you, I want more food…”

After a few months, the thousand-winged ancient ship reached the Ninth Divine City and left Xing Tian and Shi Tuo In the city. Then, it sailed for the Reincarnation Burial Ground. After a few days, Zhong Yue created an incarnation on a planet before moving on.

Another few days later, Zhong Yue placed down another incarnation. Every few days, Zhong Yue would leave an incarnation behind on his path while he travels for the Reincarnation Burial Ground. These incarnations formed a straight line and as long as he continued down this straight line, he would’ve arrived in the Reincarnation Burial Ground.

Soon, the stars and planets around them grew fewer and further away from one another. After a few months, an incredibly ancient star flew past the ship and Zhong Yue placed another incarnation on it. He glanced around and saw nothing around them anymore, not even a speck of dust. There was nothing else but darkness.

It was the land of nothingness.

But it was at this moment, he felt an incarnation he has left in the ancient universe disappearing from his senses!

Soon after, he lost contact with the second incarnation!

Someone is killing my incarnations!

Zhong Yue was shocked and angered. He quickly sensed his other incarnations and looked around their vicinities. After tens of days, he saw a skiff heading toward one of his incarnations.

On the skiff squeezed tens of gods. One of them raised his hand and shot a ray out and killed his incarnation!

“Feng Wuji!” Zhong Yue was angered, “This little bitch!”
