Chapter 681: Sworn Brothers

Zhong Yue took out a jade box, and saw that there was a godly inner core in it. He have seen many godly inner cores, they usually bear many kinds of heteromorphisms with godly rays lingering around it.

However, the godly inner core in the jade box was more peculiar. It looked like a treasure, and a medicinal pellet at the same time. There was the image of a god sitting in the core and was surrounded with various totem patterns. The voice of Dao could be vaguely heard chanting from within and the fragrant of an exceptional medicine was emanated.

The image of the god in the inner core was also making many unpredictable and extremely deep hand seals.

“What is this spiritual core?” Zhong Yue was surprised as he asked.

"An excellent treasure! A great fortune!" Through Zhong Yue’s eyes, Xin Huo looked at the spiritual core in the jade box. His eyes lit up and he smiled: "This is the Dao Imparting Innate Core, the treasure refined by an innate god. Half of it is a spiritual core, and the other half of a medium to contain the knowledge of Dao. It seems like an innate god gave it to Fa Zhaozhen, but Fa Zhaozhen treasured it so much he was not willing to use it and so he gave it to his son! The Dao Imparting Innate Core was formed by injecting the innate god’s attainments into an inner core through the innate god’s innate Qi. If he meets with a young child who he likes, he would enlighten the young child and through the Dao Imparting Innate Core, and the young child would receive the innate god’s cultivation heritage."

Goddess Shen Hou also looked at it and said: "I’ve also concocted a Dao Imparting Innate Core myself before, it required the innate god’s life source and innate Qi…Wait, this particular one doesn’t look right!"

She looked at it carefully, her face suddenly turned cold and she sneered: "This is not the Dao Imparting Innate Core, it’s more precise that it’s called the Life Switching Innate Core!"

"Life Switching Innate Core?" Zhong Yue’s psyche rumbled, he asked puzzling, “What do you mean?”

"The spiritual core contains an innate god’s memory. Looks like an innate god died for some reason and was powerless to heal himself anymore. So he refined his soul, memory, blood essence, and innate Qi into a spiritual core. Fa Zhaozhen somehow found it and thought it was a treasure." Goddess Shen Hou repeatedly looked at this spiritual core, she said, "After refining and absorbing this spiritual core, you will learn its inheritance while unconsciously, his blood essence will slowly change your physical body structure, his soul and memory changes the your atman, and his innate Qi will invade your mind and take over your life. You will not be you anymore. Although through this way, he would not be reborn into an innate god, but at least he can still come alive and live well."

"So this spiritual core really contained a dead innate god in it?" Zhong Yue stared at the godly image inside of the spiritual core, and mumbled unbelievably, "Why did this innate god die? Who can be strong enough to even kill an innate god?"

It wasn’t because of his lack of knowledge that Xin Huo couldn’t have seen through the truth of the spiritual core, but it was because he was looking through the eyes of Zhong Yue. Zhong Yue’s cultivation level and divine eyes were far too weak to perceive such high grade materials, thus, Xin Huo wouldn’t be able to as well. Whereas Goddess Shen Hou was an innate god herself, there really wasn’t nothing much that could hide from her eyes.

One should know that even the Prison Realm Realm Lord couldn’t see through the secrets in this spiritual core, let alone Zhong Yue.

"The innate gods are truly hard to kill, only a handful innate gods died for eons. But somewhen about a 100,000 years ago, I have sensed that a great number of innate gods has fallen." Goddess Shen Hou’s face was full of fear and she muttered, “Those years were the most fearful days I’ve ever lived. I was horrified and frightened, I can sense the outside world was filled with an evil and powerful force. Wars, disasters, destruction, and death plagued across the universe. The heaven and earth are filled with all kinds of negative emotions—fear, vendetta, resentment, hate, and the lust to kill. All living beings mourned in it, cried for mercy and still died horribly. The innate gods were killed in a series of death battles. I can also sense the planets dying and lives in it extinguished, even their souls couldn’t have remained…"

Although she could not leave the floating palace. But she could still sense the catastrophe happening in the outside world. The incident more than a 100,000 years ago still feared her even now.

Fortunately, the floating palace was not affected.

Zhong Yue held the Dao Imparting Innate Core and didn't know what to do. The Dao Imparting Innate Core was a true treasure, but if he refined it, it might devoured his soul and took away his life.

However, the heritage contained in it was extremely rare. If refined, he would be able to acquire the innate Qi of an innate god.

"The remnant soul in the spiritual core may be one of those innate gods that died during that period of time. Give this spiritual core to me." Goddess Shen Hou opened her white palm and smiled as she said, "I will handle it and return you a complete Dao Imparting Innate Core when I’m done."

Zhong Yue placed the Dao Imparting Innate Core in her hand. Goddess Shen Hou carefully took the spiritual core. Her eyes flashed brightly, and his divine psyche fluctuated into the spiritual core, "No need to pretend anymore. If you want to live, you have to answer a few questions."

An ancient divine psyche rumbled within the spiritual core, and answered in a profound language, "You are also an innate god, why do you obstruct my plan? Do you know who I am!?"

"Your life was in my hands, and so I suggest you to give me what I want. You are an ancient innate god, but I am much primeval than you."

The god in the spiritual core was silent for a moment and his divine psyche fluctuated again, "What do you want to know?"

......

In the distance, when the Realm Lord’s kill flew out of Fa Bisheng’s head, Jun Wudao suddenly opened her eyes. But when the Realm Lord’s skill was dispelled all of a sudden, and Zhong Yue’s saber slained Fa Bisheng, the lady couldn’t help but to changed her expression drastically, and she whispered sternly, "Leave!"

She quickly fled from the scene, and her followers quickly followed and asked, "Senior Martial Sister Wudao, did you not found a way to counter his skills?"

"No, give me more time and I can eventually counter his skill. But..." Her eyelids thumped and she muttered, "There was someone around him..."

She didn't go because she didn't want to say it, but she didn't dare to say it. She thought, There is an innate god! The woman next to him was is an innate god! Her skin texture, it’s the same as the innate god I’ve met before. It’s the carvings of Dao that paves across their bodies!

When she first saw Goddess Shen Hou, she was surprised by her sudden appearance. And when observed more carefully at the woman, her face changed slightly and there was some doubts at that time. Just that she didn’t believe an innate god could be born in the Ancient Land of God Graves.

It was way too absurd thus she only had doubts but didn’t dare to confirm.

But when the Realm Lord’s skill was abruptly dispelled and disappeared, she was finally able to confirm that Goddess Shen Hou was in fact, an innate god!

Even if I can defeat Blood Bone Evil God, it was far from impossible to defeat an innate god! What's more, I don't have the confidence to defeat Blood Bone Evil God… In her heart, she said, He is a strong enemy, there is no need to have any direct conflicts with him.

Even if she could counter Zhong Yue's skill, she may not be able to win in the actual battle. Thus, she only choose to retreat. In Prison Realm, the experts like her rarely compete with the other experts of the same level because everyone could basically enter the top ten list. And if they have fought in an all-battle, they would only open up chances for the others to kill them both.

Zhong Yue put away the other treasures he plundered from Fa Bisheng and looked back. When he saw that Jun Wudao had gone far away. He thought, What a clever lady. How unfortunate that I still doesn't know her strength. Only by competing with the same experts can I verify my strength and improve further. However, she was too scrupulous.

He recollected his thoughts and walked out.

After a long time, they have finally gotten out of this lough, Goddess Shen Hou looked back and waved as if to say goodbye to them.

Zhong Yue looked at her and wondered. His impression of innate gods was that they were always cold and indifferent. However, Goddess Shen Hou was different, she was sentimental and emotional. She didn’t seem like a grand and powerful innate god, but rather, a precocious mortal girl.

“Human Zhong Yue, Chang Geng has been waiting for a long time!” Suddenly, he heard a peal of laughter. Zhong Yue looked toward the source of sound, and saw marvelous rays revolving far away.

The godly rays formed a grand palace with beautifully carved pillar walls. It felt like a vast expanse of heaven and earth.

Then, around it was a thousand Qi Practitioners that surrounded the palace like the gods while King Geng sat in the palace. The whole scene looked as though the heavenly court had come true from the paintings.

"Human Zhong Yue, you are so hard to find. If Fa Bisheng hadn’t informed me, I still wouldn’t know that you were hiding here." King Geng laughed and sat in the heavenly court formed by godly rays.

Although he was sitting, his body was stalwart like the lord of the heavens that suppressed the heavens and the earth. He sighed, "I love strong talents and admire them a lot. As long as you are willing to follow me, I will forget the fact that you’ve killed my followers! But a talent like you must’ve been extremely prideful. So here I am, if you can force me to get up from my seat, not only will I not ask you to follow me, I will even make us sworn brothers! If you can’t do it, then I won’t force you anymore either. Now, I’ll give you seven chances!”

Let me attack and force him to get up? Zhong Yue was startled. King Geng was more confident than Jun Wudao. No wonder he could compete with the Realm Monarch for the throne. His conviction alone left other Qi Practitioners in the dust!

Goddess Shen Hou was agitated, she kept enticing Zhong Yue to start the fight as if desperate for entertainment.

On the other hand, Ma Sansou's face changed dramatically, he looked at Bai Canghai around him and whispered, "Bai... Brother Bai, can you quietly curse King Geng and make him lose?"

Bai Canghai was dumbfounded as well, he muttered, "I don't even know how to use the Curse Spirit. Also, I think that even if I did, it’d have no effect on him..."

As the two were whispering, King Geng's eyes glanced around. Just as his eyes were about to move away from Goddess Shen Hou who was standing next to Zhong Yue, he abruptly turned back to her again. Immediately, his face changed drastically, he couldn’t believe his eyes and looked carefully for the one last time before his face turned pale like snow.

Suddenly, King Geng got up, he shouted, "Leave!"

Thousands of Qi Practitioners suddenly rushed to keep up and wondered, Didn’t the king say he’d be waiting for Zhong Yue to attack? Why did he suddenly leave before the human Zhong Yue ever attacked?"

Zhong Yue was also wondering, he shouted, "King Geng, why are you in such a hurry to leave? King, since you left, when are we going to hold the ceremony and become sworn brothers?"

Sworn brothers? Bastard, I am not forced to get up by you, why should I be sworn brothers with you? King Geng nearly tripped out of anger, but managed to regain his balance and sped away. His face was still pale as he thought, "Innate god, the woman is an innate god! What a cunning man actually trying to ambush me with the help of an innate god! Fortunately, my past life was the king of the Heavenly Palace, and I have had the honor to meet with a few innate gods so I could recognize one when I see them. Else, I’d be dead by now already! But speaking of which, where did the innate god beside him came from…"
