Chapter 425 - The Kun Peng’s Arrival

To the gods, even magnate Qi Practitioners were like ordinary beings that could be slaughtered easily, thus, why would he even bother about the lives of the people of the Gu Diao Celestial Race? They were not even his own people.

Hence, he wouldn't even bat an eye if the entire Gu Diao Celestial Race was wiped out.

However, even if the Gu Diao Celestial Race were to survive this battle, it wouldn't be long before they were completely annihilated. The other races would now encroach on the Gu Diao territory with impunity in bids to expand their influence under the pretense of righteously exterminating the insect race. As a result, the entire Gu Diao Celestial Race was fated to be wiped out, and their land would be stolen by the other celestial races out there.

"If a god attacks us, would the Great Wilderness be able to withstand his attacks?" murmured Zhong Yue.

After a moment, he said softly, "Perhaps we can only resort to activating that godly

sword underneath Swords Gate to survive?"

Meanwhile, Xuansu couldn't restrain herself any longer, and as she moved, her body burst apart as a gigantic insect queen emerged from her body. As soon as it charged out of Xuansu's body, she forced the Zhu Jian Celestial Race's god away and beat her wings as she flew away.

Despite the Zhu Jian Celestial Race's god being supremely strong, the insect queen was no any weaker than him; she was not afraid of him at all. However, with her identity exposed and as time passed, the living gods of the celestial races in West Barren would quickly notice what is happening here.

And if they surrounded her, then she would end up losing her life no matter what!

How did this god find me? That's it! That brat that chased after Zhu Yushan ... He must have told the god of Zhu Jian Celestial Race that I'm marrying my daughter to Zhu Jushan!

As the insect queen god tore the dimension apart and escaped, she resolved in her heart, I will definitely not let this brat off easily! Now, I will look for Gu Hongzi and force him to reveal that other brat's location!

Suddenly, huge figures appeared and charged toward the insect queen god. These were the gods of the many celestial races that lived beyond plain sight; as soon as they noticed the battle and got to know that an insect queen god was involved, they immediately jumped out to kill it.

All of this was because it had long since been known that nothing would be left behind of whatever place the insects happened to cross, and this was not to mention an insect queen that could spawn even more insects.

Moreover, the reproductive speed of the insect queen was incredibly fast; if left unchecked, the insect race's numbers would balloon to a point where they posed a very real threat to every living being on the Ancestral Star!

Thus, the insect race had become public enemy number one in the eyes of every race on the Ancestral Star!

This insect queen god would definitely go after Senior Martial Brother Gu Hong.

Zhong Yue then moved his gaze away from the scene. Although his divine third eye could see through everything, it was still limited by distance. He then thought, But first, she will have to escape from the pursuit of the gods, including the demonic gods! Anyhow, she won't be able to escape unscathed!

As he expected, the remainder of the Gu Diao Celestial Race's people were soon slaughtered. Their land and wealth had become taken over by the other celestial races, and many of them were taken in as slaves, but this indiscriminate murder and utter disregard for potential innocents within the Gu Diao Celestial Race ensured that countless insects were killed.

In truth, it was neither hard nor easy to identify the insect race; they infested the Gu Diao Celestial Race's Qi Practitioner by parasitically living in their body.

If they exposed themselves, they would usually tear their hosts' bodies apart, and with extraordinary techniques, one could actually cleanse the parasite in the host's body without injuring the host at all.

But today, the celestial races of the West Barren wanted to invade them and rob them of their prosperity, so who would bother about helping them? Isn't killing them an even efficient and faster way?

This was the cruelty of reality, and this cruelty that arose from callousness was far more chilling than one borne of emotion.

On the other hand, Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin'er did not try to steal from the Gu Diao Celestial Race. They remained in an abandoned celestial temple to fully absorb the efficacy of the medicinal herbs.

By the time the chaotic battle had ended, Zhong Yue already stabilized his Heavenly Dharma cultivation. With that, his Yuan Shen could turn into a 100 feet tall Yuan Shen, and if he activated the Atman Body As One, he would turn into a 100 feet tall giant with immense power!

Unlike ordinary Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioners, who could only cultivate their Yuan Shen to the limit of 100 feet tall, Zhong Yue clearly felt that there was still room for improvement in his Yuan Shen.

As for Qiu Jin'er, she received Zhong Yue's guidance when she explored the secrets of Heavenly Dharma level, hence, she too, improved quickly, but it would still take a little bit more time until she advanced to this level.

“Jin’er, let us go back to Swords Gate now… Not good!”

Zhong Yue's expression changed immediately, and as he got up, he focused his sights on the Xiao Mang Celestial Race with his divine third eye.

Qiu Jin'er was confused by Zhong Yue's action while Zhong Yue took out the Golden Peng Sword. He lost control of the sword, and it tried to fly toward Xiao Mang Celestial Race immediately!

With his eyes twitched, Zhong Yue grabbed onto the sword, put it back into his secret realm and shouted, "Jin'er, the Kun Peng Celestial Race has descended onto this planet with the other half of the Divine Wing Saber! We must go now!"

She then quickly flies into the air and returned to Swords Gate with Zhong Yue as she said, "Senior martial brother, I thought that you destroyed their portal?"

"But not the Star Disc. It must be in the hands of Sha Qishan. With this disc, he will be able to forge another portal! Not long ago, I was here, and I discovered that Sha Qishan and Feng Wuji were plotting something together. They probably created a portal during this time to allow the Kun Peng Celestial Race to descend here!" Zhong Yue replied with a grave expression.

He then stopped again, took out the copper lamp and said, “We can’t go back to Swords Gate anymore!”

At the front, huge Peng feathers could be seen, shrouded the surrounding with shadow as they floated on the skies. It was an abnormal phenomenal that was created whenever the experts of the Kun Peng Celestial Race transformed into the Golden-Winged Peng!

And right behind the Peng feathers was a 1000-foot-long fish swimming the air.

The magnate Qi Practitioners of the Kun Peng Celestial Race had arrived!

Zhong Yue took back his Golden Peng Sword in the nick of time; if he were slightly slower, the people of the Kun Peng Celestial Race would have already located him through the other half of the Divine Wing Saber!

As a huge race that was able to go head to head with the dragons, the Kun Peng Celestial Race was renowned for their abundant energy reserves, resilient bodies, and exceptional agility!

The Qi Practitioners of this race all possessed incredible power that their attacks were even more ferocious than most could fathom. For their magnate Qi Practitioners to be sent out, the Kun Peng Celestial Race was clearly very determined to kill Zhong Yue and recover the other half of the Divine Wing Saber!

“Jin’er, notify the Swords Gate and tell them to prepare for an incoming invasion!”

Zhong Yue then continued, "We can't go back to Swords Gate. We have to go to the snow mountains in the West Barren!"

Wordlessly, Qiu Jin'er took out a totem pillar and proceeded to contact Swords Gate to inform them of the Kun Peng Celestial Race's arrival. After that, they rushed toward the West Barren's snowy mountains.

At the same time, as soon as the news reached Swords Gate, Jun Sixie immediately convened the elders from the Elder Council and even Fang Jiange.

"With their teleportation portal destroyed and half of the Divine Wing Saber stolen by the Seal Suppression Hall Master, they will definitely attack us first and wipe us out."

She looked around the table and asked, “Any brilliant ideas?”

To her dismay and as expected by her, her question was met with only silence and clueless stares.

Shui Zian, however, laughed and said, "Why don't we inform the dragons?"

Jun Sixie's eyes immediately lit up, and she said, "The Kun Peng Celestial Race and dragons are perennial enemies. If the dragons receive word of their arrival, they will definitely not sit still and wait. With the alliance between the Ao Clan and the Swords Gate, the other four major dragon clans will definitely participate as well. However, Swords Gate might be able to fend off the Kun Peng Celestial Race, but for Seal Suppression Hall's hallmaster…."

The elders all frowned, and Fang Jiange said, "I will go assist him in the West Barren."

“You mustn't!”

Shui Zian shook his head and said, "You have to safeguard the borders, who will be the one to protect the southern border if you are gone? I think I am the most suitable one to…."

Before he could finish talking, Jun Sixie shook her head and said, "Elder Shui, you must go to the dragons to convince them – only you can do this. Perhaps, I will go to the West Barren personally to bring them back safely…."

“Impossible!”

The elders all stood up and voiced their dissent, "How could you, as headmaster, risk losing your life by entering West Barren?"

Jun Sixie then thought for a moment, and she suddenly said, "Alright, none of us will go and help them."

Everyone looked at Jun Sixie in shock and vacant minds. She then said, "Previously, he was chased by Xia Zhongjin, Xia Zhongguang, and Sha Qishan and survived. This time, as a Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioner, he will definitely not die as well in any circumstance. All we have to do is just safeguard the Swords Gate with everything we have."

“The hallmaster of Seal Suppression Hall is already a Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioner?”

Her words shook the elders again as they all though, Does that mean Zhong Yue is already qualified to become an elder of Swords Gate? He is only 20 years old. If this is true, then he might be the youngest elder in Swords Gate history.

"Don't you think it's not that good for us to sit back while he is being pursued out there?" Some of the elders immediately asked.

Meanwhile, Shui Zian murmured, "I still have one token from him, and that is my last token. If he were killed, then from whom could I have obtained something valuable?"

Jun Sixie laughed and replied, "Don't worry, not even the Kun Peng Celestial Race could stop him if he wanted to escape. I mean, just look at the Zhong Li Celestial Race of the South Barren, didn't they spend a fortune and pour in immense effort to kill him but still failed regardless? Besides, as a newcomer, I think that the Kun Peng Celestial Race might not even dare to act to arrogantly and ruthlessly!

***

In the West Barren, the Xiao Mang Celestial Race.

Feng Wuji, Sha Qishan, and a plain-looking old man were sitting around a table and sipping tea. Feng Wuji said, "Mister Kun Da, Wuji has waited this day for a very long time."

"My high priest, you have waited this day for only one and a half years, but our Kun Peng Celestial Race has waited for more than 10,000 years."

Mister Kun Da put his cup of tea onto the table and said, "The books of our clan wrote that the Ancestral Star was much bigger than the Celestial Wood Star. Who would have thought that when we returned to this planet, its size has shrunk so much? High priest, don't worry, we have no intention of conquering this planet, we only came back because this was the place where we were born. Your portal is too small, so it will take a long time before our army arrives."

Feng Wuji laughed and replied, "The Xiao Mang Celestial Race has just experienced a huge loss, we've lost quite a huge amount of god-tier materials, and this is the best we can do for now. Mr. Kun Da, have you found the man who stole the Divine Wing Saber? This man is a very cunning person, and I am worried that if you could catch him."

"Don't worry, I've locked onto him with the Divine Wing Saber long before I touched down," replied Kun Da calmly.

He then said again, "Right now, Peng Jinyi, and Peng Qianqiu are on him. All you have to do is wait for the good news."
