564: Strange Eye

Strange Eye

It's real hard to kill the gods…, Zhong Yue looked at the cracked egg and thought. Even for a god to kill the other gods, there was a great chance they would be able to escape, let alone Zhong Yue.

When Mother Da Zhen was exposed by Zhong Yue, she was hunted by over a dozen West Barren gods. But even so, she has still escape and survived until now.

After that in the Ancient Frozen Capital, when the other mother god was chased by the gods, Mother Da Zhen rushed over to rescue. And in the end, that mother god was killed, but she still managed to escape from the many Ancestral Star gods.

Then in that battle with the Xiao Mang grand ancestor, Mother Da Zhen was also one of the few that escaped alive.

One could really infer how hard was it to kill her.

Mother Da Zhen's divine gold mortal body is destroyed, her shell was left behind, and now her mortal body is completely crushed. Now then, where's the hiding place for her Yuan Shen, Zhong Yue thought, The way she hid her Yuan Shen is really strong, able to even hide away from my divine eyes. But this cracked insect egg just explained everything. She has hid her Yuan Shen in the insect eggs. That way, she would be able to let go of her own mortal body and possess on the newborn insects. Seems like the next time, I will have to even destroy all of the insect eggs in her body! But even so, she wouldn't die as she still have the livings worshipping her.

He thought of the insects Mother Da Zhen has left behind on the continent. Those insects are the last thing that could keep her alive!

As long as these insects doesn't stop worshipping her, her spirit would not die!

The same goes to Zhong Yue as well. He has many worshippers among the humans, monsters and demons, more than millions in number. It was easy to kill him, any single god could have done that. But to make him cease from existing at all, even in the form of spirit, it would be incredibly hard.

His worshippers would keep his spirit alive, even though his body could still be killed.

While it was already hard to kill a Qi Practitioners like Zhong Yue, it would be way harder to kill Mother Da Zhen. The mother gods could easily produce batches and batches of insects in anytime, and these insects would be able to worship them, keeping their spirits unkillable.

Not to mention that Mother Da Zhen was a prominent one even among her other peers, having many ways to keep herself alive even under extreme circumstances.

In stark contrast, Zhong Yue only has the Immortal Body and worshippers.

In the City of Nature, Mother Da Zhen isn't the real issue, Zhong Yue thought. He took out the divine herb he has plucked down from Mother Da Zhen's head and ate half of it. Immediately, he could feel himself brimming with energy. His arcane energy was recovering at a great rate, his wounds were healing in an instant and even his cultivation base was increasing!

No wonder the gods wanted to plant these divine herbs. Not only that they can heal the wounds, they can also boost one's cultivation base. What a pity Mother Da Zhen's prowess is gravely impaired, else this divine herb planted on her will be even better than now, He strode forward and thought, Nevermind that. The biggest concern now is this strange city!

The City of Nature was filled with many strange occurrences. He has already been through three different near death experiences in this city and it wasn't hard to tell that it wouldn't have just stop at three times.

He couldn't have stop wondering how many secrets were there in the city, and how many people died in here.

He survived two out of the three experiences by luck. Both of which were that he was sent away before he was killed. While the other time was that he forcibly endured the attacks and killed the four revived gods!

Come to think of it, the light rays that came out from the underground is real bizzare, my [Pan Gu Six Paths] is able to stop it and the Pan Gu god in my Dao Yi Secret Realm can absorb it, Zhong Yue thought and came out with a conclusion, That being said, the light rays should be the unique power of the Six Paths Reincarnation.

He looked at the Pan Gu god in his Dao Yi Secret Realm. The Pan Gu god's five hands were making the hand signs of the Six Paths, while the sixth hand was not moving at all.

Compared to the last time where the Pan Gu god was shadowy, it was now clearer already.

Zhong Yue cast the [Pan Gu Six Paths] again and the Pan Gu god's faint figure appeared in his six light wheels behind him. Golden rays painted the surroundings and the low chants of worshippings resounded the place.

Eh? The [Pan Gu Six Paths] is stronger now!, Zhong Yue was surprised. The [Pan Gu Six Paths] has six unique skills, but there were only five shown to him now. But even so, he could only curtly imitate the hand signs and cast the five skills; he wasn't able to attain anything out from them.

But all these while, the [Pan Gu Six Paths] wasn't very strong, it was only proved to be effective against the bizarre dead livings that came back to live. Thus, Zhong Yue has never used it before in actual combats.

But now, after the Pan Gu god has absorbed the light rays, the [Pan Gu Six Paths] has also gotten stronger!

There is the power of the Six Paths in this city. The light rays that came out from the underground have proved this already. They can be absorbed by my Pan Gu god and strengthen it!, Zhong Yue thought, The [Pan Gu Six Paths] will be my capital to survive the City of Nature!

Rays flashed across his eyes. He survived the second near death experience with his own prowess and has strengthened the power of the [Pan Gu Six Paths].

What he has to do now was to continue find ways in improving the power of his [Pan Gu Six Paths]!

Only by doing so, I can have a greater chance to survive!, Zhong Yue recollect his thoughts and strode forward.

Soon after, he reached to the front of a god's grave. The grave was opened and clearly this time, the gods have prepared themselves, only one god died.

Two skeletons laid beside the grave, there weren't any spiritual energy in them. Zhong Yue meticulously walked closer to them and moments later, the earth quaked following by the bizarre light rays that seeped out from the underground.

The two skeletons were shaking violently and were slowly standing up!

Without any hesitation, Zhong Yue instantly cast the [Pan Gu Six Paths] and light rays from the underground have rushed to the back of his head, absorbed by his Pan Gu god. Even the light rays that have entered the two skeletons flew out as well.

The two revived skeletons groaned and clawed over. But just a second before their claws could reach to Zhong Yue's head, they have crumbled and collapsed back on the ground as two lifeless skeletons.

"Run?", Zhong Yue could feel the spiritual energy in the underground moving away from him. He yelled softly and arms grew out from his body, waving his fists and pummelled on the surface of the ground.

The earth cracked and there were light rays that could be seen seeping down into the underground.

"Come over!", Zhong Yue quickly cast the [Pan Gu Six Paths] and a curtain of light rays was sucked into the body of his Pan Gu God!

The Pan Gu God grew clearer and the sixth hand moved as well, the sixth hand sign was finally formed!

Meanwhile, a loud muffled groan from the underground shuddered the earth. Zhong Yue saw a shadowy figure moving in the underground, its voice stopped his [Pan Gu Six Paths] and it carried the light rays away with it!

It was huge, moving in the underground like a whale swimming in the sea!

Is this the Disaster the gods are talking about?!, Zhong Yue was shocked. The energy in his body was shuddering concomitant with his cultivation base, arcane energy and psyche trying to gush out from his mortal body. He quickly leap back and the place where he stood collapsed away into a bottomless hole.

His heart was pounding harder than ever. The 'Disaster' would suck away every spiritual energy, including the livings and items, everything would be turn into a pile of waste dusts!

While when his [Pan Gu Six Paths] was in touch with that huge figure, the spiritual energy in his mortal body was nearly sucked away as well!

Is it a creature, or something else?

Cold sweat burst out on Zhong Yue's forehead. He looked into the hole and saw the shadowy figure moving away shrouding in light rays.

Then, the hole was filled with the color of white, it was smooth like a pool of still water or like a clear mirror.

Right after, it turned darker than black, like a fathomless abyss following by the same color of white again.

After that, the colors disappeared and the hole slowly shrunk smaller like a wound that was healing.

The earth is healing itself?, Zhong Yue shook his head in disbelief but couldn't stop thinking about it, If the hole can heal like a wound, doesn't that mean…

The city is actually alive?

A shocking thought flashed across his mind and he immediately shook his head right after. He gave a series of dry laughters and mumbled, "Impossible, how can a city be alive… Wait, wait, no… the City of Nature is not a city, it is the stomach of Patriarch Nature, it could really be alive!"

His scalps tingled and the hairs on his skin bristled up, "Patriarch Nature is still alive!"

But he soon ruled out the possibility. Xin Huo said before that Patriarch Nature was the child of an innate god, although having half of his blood belonging to the innate gods, he was still not the innate gods. He enjoys only a limited time of life just like the other gods, he couldn't live for so long until now.

From the ancient time until now, it has already been 86,000 years of time. Even if he has the six wheels and cultivated the Six Paths Reincarnation, only the Heavenly Monarchs could live for so long. But clearly, Patriarch Nature is not in the level of the Heavenly Monarch. Also, what is that white and black mirror thing, how strange…

He pondered deeply and a cold child was suddenly sent down his spine, his eyes were opened wide as he came out with a guess, An eye! That was an eye! It was looking at me through the hole!

Zhong Yue's body shivered in shock. Just imagine about it terrifies him! He wasn't sure if the city was alive, but there was definitely someone, something living in this city. He and Mother Da Zhen weren't alone in here!

What is that? Is it the cause of all the strange events?

Zhong Yue calmed himself and continued moving forward. He was hoping that he could find some clues in the center of the city. Everything he has in mind now was just thoughts and conjectures, he might be able to prove them when he reaches the center of the city.

The City of Nature was shabby and dead silent. The buildings were crawled with the green vines and the bushes grew all over the place.

Crack…

Tens of miles away from Zhong Yue, weird noises could be heard as a huge eye rose from the underground. It rolled in midair and finally stopped, looking toward the direction where Zhong Yue was at. It seemed like the eye could see through the mists that even the Fuxi divine eyes couldn't have.0

"A young Fuxi…", somehow, the eyeball started making sounds of nefarious gigglings.
