Chapter 558 - A Strange Place
The Golden Peng Swords drilled underground and thrust at Mother Da Zhen.
The earth rumbled as the swords drilled through the planet’s crust. From afar, a few high mountains were abruptly pushed out from ground; they were the result of Mother Da Zhen’s violent movements in the underground.
Zhong Yue clenched on the Divine Wing Saber and flew up into the mid-air. His three divine eyes were able to see through the earth as though the soil layers were just layers of glasses.
Mother Da Zhen was traveling at a great speed in the underground while the Golden Peng Swords were adding more wounds onto her already wounded mortal body.
Zhong Yue frowned at the a trail of blood she left behind. This blood wasn’t just ordinary blood, it also had eggs in them.
“What is she planning?" He was curious but there weren’t time for him to think deeper; he had to carefully keep his sight on Mother Da Zhen lest she escapes him.
With so many Golden Peng Swords harassing Mother Da Zhen, even if he could’nt find her Yuan Shen, he could still slowly grind her to death!
Killing a god?
That was something that not even Zhong Yue dared to think about yet, but it was exactly what he was doing now!
“Strange, why aren’t there any Qi Practitioners on this piece of land…" Zhong Yue flew for over ten thousand miles. He was controlling the Golden Peng Swords through the Divine Wing Saber he was holding in his hands.
Along the way, he didn’t even come across any Qi Practitioners at all. All there was were native creatures like the the huge bird that couldn’t fly but only run and the two-legged huge rats that hopped and jumped.
Not to mention Qi Practitioners, he didn’t even see a single human, monster, celestial, or demon!
For no sentient life forms to inhabit this place was truly bizarre.
He seized a chance and quickly scanned the surroundings to see only forest and desert all around, devoid of any and all intelligent life.
“The Qi Practitioners are so strong and powerful, and the races fought like the end of the world for every piece of land they could get their hands on. Why is this place still uninhabited?" Zhong Yue was puzzled.
The land on the Ancestral Star was limited, making them an incredibly precious resource. Races wouldn’t give up any single piece of land within their territory. Not only that, but they would even annihilate a whole race just to conquer and expand their territories. That being said, for this continent to remain unconquered or even unexplored was an incredibly strange matter.
Not to mention the others, the dragon race could have easily conquered this isolated continent that was in the middle of the ocean.
“Is there something wrong with this continent?”
Meanwhile, Mother Da Zhen was still swimming through the crust. The insect eggs absorbed the godly blood around them and incubated the insect disciples out from the underground.
Thousands of insects swarmed on the ground surface, killing the many native creatures on this piece of land.
Mother Da Zhen’s plan was simple. She would first give birth to these low-level insects and make them devour the creatures on this continent to gather more energy. After that, she would turn around and devour these insects, using the energy that they gathered to treat her wounds.
She only needed to heal a little bit before she would be able to kill Zhong Yue!
However, she also soon realized the strangeness of the continent they were on. Her face turned gloomy as she thought, Why do the creatures on this continent have so little spiritual energy in them!? It is close to nothing!
The spiritual energy was something that was present in every living creature, with the human race possessing highest levels of spiritual energy among the many races.
This was because the human race was, in truth, the sealed Fuxi Celestial Race, one of the greatest sovereign races. Even though they were sealed, the innate power within them still granted them the greatest concentrations of spiritual energy among the races of the Ancestral Star.
This was also humans were so favored as food. The humans were weak yet contained such a high spiritual energy in them, this inevitably made them to appear as walking medicinal pellets in the eyes of the other races.
It was also why the humans were often captured and concocted into medicinal pellets or forged into the soul weapons. Some of the monsters or demons even used the more attractive human slaves to plunder their spiritual energy through more depraved means.
Although the other races had spiritual energy, they were much lesser than the humans.
Even the monster race that enjoyed a higher status in the Ancestral Star also had spiritual energy. It was only because of this that the monster beasts could cultivate and turn into the monster Qi Practitioners.
In stark contrast, the creatures on this continent had such a low level of spiritual energy, it was almost imperceptible. It was unlike anything Mother Da Zhen and Zhong Yue had seen before!
The Ancestral Star is a place where the talents are often born in. The creatures here are naturally endowed with vigorous spiritual energy. But this continent, it’s so strange, it doesn’t any spiritual energy. Mother Da Zhen thought, Probably because the creatures that are born in here don’t the spiritual energy in them. That must be why this place has never interested the other races in conquering it. But, why is there no spiritual energy here?
Then, she placed down the altars and cast the 【Heaven and Earth Sacrificial Art】. Immediately, the energy of the heaven and earth gushed into her mortal body. It seemed like there was indeed spiritual energy in this continent, but why did the creatures inhabiting it have none of it?
This continent must have some secrets!
Rays flashed across Mother Da Zhen’s eyes, she thought, What a pity that Zhong Yue is chasing after me. Otherwise, I’d be able to dig out the secrets here. With the current situation now, it seems like devouring the livings for energy will be impossible now. Zhong Yue, you have pushed me through my limit. Don’t blame me for what’s to come!

Zhong Yue was controlling the Golden Peng Swords and struck at her unceasingly, causing her to be wounded even more, causing her speed to slow down even further.
She had lost too much blood. And with the Golden Peng Swords continuously coming at her, her condition was worsening with every second.
Her mortal body won’t last much longer! Zhong Yue kept a close eye on her, and he had noticed the decline in her speed. He heaved a breath of relief, After killing this mother insect, I can return to Swords Gate … Hmm?
His heart skipped a beat, the Golden Peng Swords thrust through Mother Da Zhen’s mortal body and flashed out form the other end. However, it didn’t feel like it had thrust through a solid body!
Not good! This is just her shell! She escaped without her shell!
Zhong Yue descended from the sky and turned into a Gou She Celestial Race. Then, he dove into the ground, reaching the side of Mother Da Zhen’s shell in just a few moments.
Zhong Yue flipped her huge shell away and found a huge hole on its belly. Clearly, that was where the mother insect escaped from. there was also a huge hole on the ground right where the shell was at before — that must be where she went.
Without hesitation, Zhong Yue rushed into the hole with the Golden Peng Swords in front of him to prevent Mother Da Zhen from launching a surprise attack at him.
She just removed her old shell, her new shell will be weak. It probably won’t be able to withstand the Golden Peng Swords at all. This is a good chance to kill her!
He moved quickly. The hole led him into a tunnel that went straight down to the center of the planet, and he could feel the temperature starting to rise. It was evident enough that he was deep enough to be close to the mantle underground.
Soon after, he exited the tunnel and reached a huge space underground. There were fire and flames all around, the lava paved the floor and the temperature rose without pause.
Zhong Yue clenched on the Divine Wing Saber and cast the Golden Peng Swords out around him. All of a sudden, his heart tensed up and he instantly recalled the Golden Peng Swords back to form a barrier around him.
Krong!
A strong force impacted on him and shuddered his body. He muffled a groan and the Golden Peng Swords were struck out of formation. He quickly looked around and found himself surrounded by statues that rose within the lavas.
These statues numbered in the hundreds and were sculpted like the mother insects. They each had their own unique appearances.
These mother insect statues were siphoning the energy from the lava and formed the totem patterns around in the space. Needless to say, this was definitely Mother Da Zhen’s work!
Mother Da Zhen reached here first and sculpted these statues, placed an array formation while Zhong Yue rushes right into her trap!
“Hehehe, Zhong Yue, you really did fall into my trap!”
Mother Da Zhen turned into a woman again. Except this time, she wasn’t beautiful anymore, scars crawled all over her fair skin. She stood outside of the array formation and chortled, “I prepared this Mother Queen Soul Destruction Array here just for you. How do you feel now?”
The mother insect statues slowly melted down and turned into the many bizarre looking mother insects made from lava. Their tentacles and claws waved in the air and struck at Zhong Yue, trying to break through his defenses.
The array formation was a god-level array formation. But Mother Da Zhen was limited in time and energy as well as the materials at this point in time.
Otherwise, a fully prepared and set up version of this array formation would be able to kill Zhong Yue in one strike!
All of a sudden, the over hundred mother insects covered in lava roared at Zhong Yue. The sound waves turned into the totem patterns and converted into many insects inside his mortal body and Yuan Shen!
Zhong Yue’s face changed drastically, he quickly visualized the 【Shao Hao Bell】. The ringing of the bell then fought against the incoming soundwaves while he also visualized the 【Dragon Shears】 to kill the insects inside his mortal body and Yuan Shen.
“Go!" Zhong Yue yelled and the over hundred banners flew out from his Yuan Shen secret realms. These hundred and eight banners enlarged and surrounded the mother insect statues in the middle.
Figures of the demon gods emerged from the banners and they roared back on the mother insect statues. Immediately, the mother insect statues crumbled and disappeared into the lava.
“Da Zhen, maybe you should come and try my array formation as well!" Zhong Yue yelled and the banners flew out further, expanding the array formation’s coverage area for over a few dozens times!
Mother Da Zhen’s face changed drastically, she quickly turned and ran. But just seconds before she exited the array formation coverage area, the hundred and eight demon gods roared at her in unison.
A wave of dizziness struck on Mother Da Zhen and she spurted out a mouth of blood. It was at that moment that the Divine Wing Saber slashed down and cleaved her in half at the middle.
Mother Da Zhen was cleaved into halves but her mortal body was still running forward. The 108 demon gods quickly raised their hands and punched her two halves into minced meat. also breaking away the stone wall behind her.
Behind the stone wall was empty and the two clumps of minced meat fell into it.
Zhong Yue squinted his eyes and looked into empty space. Suddenly, the two clumps of mince meat squirmed, soon reforming into Mother Da Zhen again. This time, she bolted out into the empty space at great speed, Zhong Yue chased after her but soon lost her from his vision.
Zhong Yue’s heart skipped a beat, it wasn’t Mother Da Zhen that escaped, it was his vision that deteriorated!
5800 feet, how can my vision be this poor?
Zhong Yue raised his hand and the banners flew back into his Yuan Shen secret realms on their own. He looked forward and shuddered in shock, “This… this is…”
