Chapter 726: Unprecedented Predicament

When Zhong Yue got close to the edge of the sun and attempted to retrieve the Innate Sun Spirit, the solar storm coincidentally erupted and quite a number of Innate Sun Spirits flew towards Ancestral Star.

And the one Zhong Yue had received was the Sovereign Tree. Although the tree couldn’t become his spirit, it could still nurture his Golden Crow True Spirit and slowly morph it into an Innate True Spirit. Up until now, the Sovereign Tree was still within his Yuan Shen and it had since became the nest of the Innate Golden Crow True Spirit.

At that time, Zhong Yue discovered a horrifying existence within the sun; it was a creature incredibly huge that was digging right into the sun’s core towards the Emperor’s Tomb. While he snuck into the sun, he saw a gigantic mirror which reflected everything about him.

As the mirror moved, even more mirrors emerged and he later discovered that these mirrors were actually scales of a being he couldn’t fathom.

Then, the seals in the tomb exploded, injuring the owner of the scales and thereby benefitting Zhong Yue; he managed to obtain one of the scales and since then, it had became one of his treasures.

There were blood stains on that scale he obtained but given the unique bloodline of the owner, even Xin Huo failed to identify the owner’s race.

But Zhong Yue had still gained tremendously from the scale mirror. With the mirror, he enabled the cultivators of the Swords Gate to make quantum leaps in their training. Besides, with the ability to reflect one’s weaknesses, Zhong Yue managed to triumph against his opponents time and time again.

In his heart, however, he clearly knew that the owner of the scale was not a benevolent being because that tomb that creature was trying to dig into was the tomb of the Sui Sovereign!

The tombs of these sovereigns back in Earth and the Flame Order Era was the shield of Ancestral Star that kept invaders at bay. Thus, it was obvious that the owner of the scales bore only ill intent towards the Ancestral Star when he tried to dig into the tomb.

Now, after sensing the scale hidden in Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen Secret Realm, the owner of the scales summoned his scale back.

The scale flew right towards Lesser Saint Heaven Realm, suggesting that the owner was one of the Realm Monarchs and now, the attention of this Realm Monarch is onto him now!

This Realm Monarch was injured in the sun, lost one of his scales because of that and now, after retrieving his scale back, the information of Zhong Yue was bound to be exposed and this Realm Monarch will know Zhong Yue had come from the Ancestral Star!

There was no other worse outcome than this!

The tensed up Zhong Yue immediately wanted to leave and run as far as he could.

Just one scale already possessed such fearsome power, if the owner used it himself, just imagine what he could see and how much more Zhong Yue could hide?

Even if he cast aside everything, it was already suspicious enough that Zhong Yue had come from the Ancestral Star alone!

The Ancestral Star was sealed off completely, meaning that leaving it should’ve been impossible. How did he manage to leave and how did he get here?

If he were discovered, then the very sole loophole in the seals would be discovered as well. After that, it was only a matter of time before the Ancestral Star truly became an inescapable prison!

It’s fine if I die, but the secrets on me must not be found out at any cost! Whether it be Xin Huo or the hole in the seals, I must hide them no matter the price I have to pay!

Zhong Yue blinked his eyes and when he was about to leave, Heavenly King Shang looked at him and asked, “Lord Yue, what happened?”

Heavenly King Fu’s expression changed slightly and he exclaimed, “Lord Yue?”

“Lord Yue successfully ascended into the forty-ninth level in Pure Yang Lighting Tribulations and he won the favor of our Realm Monarch, thus, the title Lord Yue. This young man’s future is very bright!” replied Heavenly King Shang happily.

Heavenly King Fu’s expression changed right away again and he felt bitter, This human had someone incredible behind him and he even manage to achieve something like that! And I just scolded someone with the potential of a Realm Monarch, and a Creator! This is bad….

He was observant and opportunistic; he would be obsequious to the strong and denigrate the weak. Now, upon knowing Zhong Yue’s background and bright future, Heavenly King Fu’s attitude towards Zhong Yue changed completely.

Zhong Yue, on the other hand, was as nervous as Heavenly King Fu as he wanted to leave right away but he couldn’t since Heavenly King Fu glued onto him in order to please him.

Meanwhile in the Lesser Saint Heaven Realm, the many Realm Monarchs saw the scale that returned to Realm Monarch Dao Ming and they all praised and congratulated.

“Realm Monarch Bo Luo, to be able to enter your eyes, this young man must be related to you in some way that you even gave him one of your scales. This young man is definitely one of your people,” said a Realm Monarch, “Why don’t you summon him here and let us take a look at this young man?”

“Of course. I have something to ask him as well,” replied Realm Monarch Dao Ming.

He was very puzzled; the Imperial Emperor and another few strong presences have made the Divine Tree of Knowledge and the Skymetrical Scroll, sealing the entire Ancestral Star’s dimension, heaven and earth so how did this young man manage to get out?

Other than that, he even became a representative of the Wei Shen Six Paths World; something was not right for sure.

“I will summon him now.”

On the other side, after Zhong Yue and the others had settled down, Heavenly King Fu asked, “Brother Shang, I will take you to the Lesser Saint Heaven Realm now. Do you want to tag along, Princess Shi and Brother Zhong?”

Shi Yinji’s eyes lit up immediately and she nodded right away while Zhong Yue shook as he left.

Right now, Heavenly King Fu strongly regretted and he thought, I shouldn’t have offended him. Now, it’s hard to please him anymore. Whatever, the girls in my family are all pretty and gorgeous. I will gift them to him later.

Then, Heavenly King Shang, Heavenly King Fu, and Shi Yinji left for the Lesser Saint Heaven Realm; but as the snake that he was, Heavenly King Fu did not bother to invite Ju Ying and the others along.

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue immediately got out from the palace and immediately flew away from the Heaven Court without hesitation and he thought, Quick! I have to get out as fast as I can!

He flew with lightning speed towards the outside but the Heaven Court in this world was just unbelievably huge, making it impossible to get out in such a short time.

If there is a teleportal, I will be able to teleport away even if that place on the other side is extremely dangerous! Nowhere else can be more dangerous than this place now!

As soon as he thought of this, his eyes lit up upon discovering a broken portal which was being fixed by many demons and gods through reforging the totem carving patterns.

He immediately walked towards the teleportal and thought, It may be useless to others while broken but to me, I could just teleport away by replacing the totem carvings with mine.

As soon as he charged right into the teleportal, his energy boiled and just as he completed the totem carvings, an enormous power descended from the skies.

A light pillar struck onto him and Zhong Yue lost his balance right away but he couldn’t even do anything about it. When the enormous power faded, he regained his balance and he looked around, only to see a gigantic pillar standing at the end of the heaven and earth. This pillar was utterly astonishing and it supported the starry skies where the sun and moon hid among the stars.

This was a huge palace, a palace where the sun, moon, and stars were imprinted at the top.

Yet, this was not the most marvelous thing. The most amazing thing was the many gods and demons sitting in this palace; each and every one of them was extremely huge and when they sat around Zhong Yue, he felt that he was surrounded by planets. These gods and demons had colorful Dao totem patterns surrounding them, each in the form of dragons, serpents, insects, birds, phoenixes, fishes, mountains, stars, rivers and many more and they were all discussing and exchanging ideas on Dao.

Realm Monarchs.

These were the Realm Monarchs of the 3,000 worlds!

To be exact, there were only 2,999 of them since with the original first Six Paths World being abandoned, there was no Realm Monarch to represent it.

Zhong Yue’s mind went blank upon seeing this, but amidst the intense mighty aura, none of the aura of these Realm Monarchs harmed him and they merely felt saintly and majestic.

Meanwhile, Xin Huo had already put on a muzzle on him; he went into slumber and dared not move at all. Apart from that, this little flame even went back to the weathered bronze lamp and shut himself in to prevent the senses of these Realm Monarchs from detecting him.

There were just too many of them, each of whom was on the level of a Creator. It would be extremely hard to escape their detection. Hence, he had no other options but to hide himself inside the bronze lamp.

“What a handsome and talented young man!”

The many Realm Monarchs looked at Zhong Yue and in an instant, Zhong Yue felt immense pressure bearing down on him while his secrets were all laid barely in front of their eyes!

His body creaked under the pressure before the Innate Golden Crow True Spirit and Innate Star Toad True Spirit emerged uncontrollably, each turning into the Golden Crow and Star Toad before transforming into the three-taloned golden celestial and three-legged six-eyed celestial being.

With just a stare, he was forced to reveal his Yuan Shen. The scariest thing was that his Fuxi Yuan Shen was also in the brink of being forced out!

If this happened, no matter how strong the person supporting him was or what he did, he would die for sure!

At this time, a surprised voice was heard before a familiar voice sounded, “Oh? So it’s you, Lord Yue. Realm Monarch Bo Luo, never thought that the talented young man you spoke off was Lord Yue. No wonder, no wonder.”

The pressure from the Realm Monarchs dispersed right away at this voice and when they looked around, they realized that this person who spoke was Realm Monarch Helian Yunshan from Wei Shen Six Paths World.

He smiled gradually and said, “Realm Monarch Bo Luo is indeed very insightful. Lord Yue is the strongest contestant from my world. Though he is a human, his strength overwhelmingly outstripped the rest, which also includes my daughter. Besides, Lord Yue has an innate god guiding him from the back. Initially, I was surprised by his strength, I am no longer surprised after knowing that an innate god and even Realm Monarch Bo Luo were fond of him.”

“Innate god?”

The Realm Monarchs were shocked and when they looked at Zhong Yue, their mind shifted away; this time in their eyes, Zhong Yue saw no more pressure while they said, “Ha! Your insight is impressive, Realm Monarch Bo Luo!

Realm Monarch Bo Luo however, kept his cool from the praises he received and after they were done flattering him, he smirked and said gradually, “But there are still secrets in him, secrets that even I can’t detect.”

He looked towards Zhong Yue who was about to relax and Zhong Yue felt immense pressure charging down on him again. This time, his Fuxi Yuan Shen could no longer be held back and it starting to emerge!
