569: May Your Soul Return To Us

May Your Soul Return To Us

As soon as the zither stopped playing, a little girl's voice reverberated the surrounding, "Bad flame, little Fuxi, I'm not saving you two, I'm just here to avenge my people!"

Zhong Yue replied, "Thank you, Sister Zither."

All of a sudden, a loud blast of sound ravaged in their ears as if the zither was slammed hard, and the City of Nature cracked at the middle.

"Sister Zither, the battle, why…", Zhong Yue hesitated as he asked, "...why weren't you all there?"

The zither sounds faded away as the little girl answered, "It's complicated, we were tangled with many things and can't help in the battle at all. Even the Earthly Sovereigns' spirits were stopped from descending out of the Void World. All you see now, everything you know, are just the tip of an iceberg. There are many more things going underneath the calm sea…"

The zither sound stopped and Haoyi Zither was back in the imperial tomb again.

Zhong Yue kept silent, Even the Earthly Sovereigns' spirits were stopped in the Void World? Who, or what have such appalling strength to do so?

Suddenly, he remembered something and laughed, "Mother Da Zhen, it's time for us to settle our hatreds."

Mother Da Zhen shivered, she quickly laughed, "Zhong Shan Clan member, all these things we have been through, I'd say we have a strong bond between…"

She abruptly waved her claws at him while raising her butt high and spurt out a spiderweb at him!

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue bowed and said, "Mother Da Zhen, there is no need to fight back anymore, you can't change anything at all!"

As soon as he bowed, the Divine Wing Saber burst out from his light wheels and severed the two claws and broke the spiderweb!

Mother Da Zhen gave a shrill whistle and turned back into her true form. Her body swirled like a hurricane and the spikes on her body clashed with the Divine Wing Saber.

In just the blink of an eye, countless bone spikes were broke away by the Divine Wing Saber, while the saint weapon was also repelled away!

Bang, bang, bang—

The poisonous pouches on her back exploded and filled the surrounding with poison gas, poison waters.

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue's bow has also burst out in power; gods emerged behind him and bowed together.

It's the [Worshipping of Gods]!

Krong—

Mother Da Zhen was pushed back along with the poison gas and poison water, she was propelled away in mid-air. Seizing the opportunity, the chimney looking exoshells on her body have blast out dark lights that pushed her further and faster away from him as she made her way out from the city. One must say, her reaction was incredibly quick.

She knew that Zhong Yue wouldn't have let her live. When Patriarch Nature's spirit was still here, she was needed to prove his conjectures. But with Patriarch Nature's spirit now killed, there were no reasons for him to let her live anymore!

But she could still save herself. Before, the City of Nature was like a flawless egg, a locked room; it was impossible to leave the city. But with the terrifying zither sound broke the City of Nature into half, it created a crack on the flawless egg. That gave her a chance to leave the city and survive from Zhong Yue!

Right when her feet leaves the ground, Zhong Yue's mortal body enlarged into a ten thousand feet giant. He reached out for the Divine Wing Saber and cleaved it down heavily to the front!

The saber ray grew longer as it slashed forward, leaving a deep mark on the ground. Right at the moment Mother Da Zhen was going to fly through the crack on the city wall, the saber ray has slashed down and killed her within the City of Nature!

Her mortal body was cleaved into halves and smacked on the sides of the city wall.

Zhong Yue swung his hand and the Golden Feathery Peng Swords swarmed out like a hurricane. The golden swords rained down on her remains and crushed all of the insect eggs in her body!

Zhong Yue hurled the Divine Wing Saber up into the sky while he curled his hands together. The [Shaohao Bell] appeared in front of him and made a series of bell ringing noises. Mother Da Zhen's remains and the insect eggs were all pulverized into ashes.

"Mang-gu—", the six-eyed Star Toad emerged behind him and roared again, turning the ashes into the tiniest particles that dispersed in the winds!

Then, a pair of golden wings spanned behind him, and the Golden Crow shot out like a nocked arrow let loose. The godly sunfire has burnt everything around it!

"Zhong Shan Clan member, you, you! I swear I will kill you!", Mother Da Zhen's Yuan Shen rose within the fire and she cried while dashing out from the city. She was really worthy to be an insect race mother god, she was incredibly hard to kill; even after so many rounds of different assaults.

Clearly, it was the worshippings of the insects she had laid in this continent that has protected her Yuan Shen from dying!

"Da Zhen, do you still remember the array formation I taught you?", Zhong Yue sneered coldly.

Mother Da Zhen startled, she couldn't understand why was he bringing this up so suddenly.

But of course she couldn't have forgotten about it. It was exactly what brought her to where she stands now. If it wasn't that Zhong Yue has pretended as an ancient lamp god and deceived her to sacrifice her prowess to the world, all of these wouldn't have happen at all!

However, the [Heaven and Earth Sacrificial Art] requires the altars to cast. It was too late for Zhong Yue to cast it out now.

"Along the way into the city, I have already placed the altars in various spots. As soon as you leave the city, the altars I have placed in the divine gold mine will be triggered and you'd die for good.", Zhong Yue said while Mother Da Zhen flew out from the City of Nature.

She heard him and was shocked. But right before she could make a turn away from the divine gold mine, totem patterns glimmering in rays have emerged in the divine gold mine.

"Not even the [Heaven and Earth Sacrificial Art] can kill me!", Mother Da Zhen shrieked and she forced her way through toward the end of the divine gold mine. But her Yuan Shen grew faint and her prowess waned at a fascinating rate. Her Yuan Shen started to fade away, her spirit was blurred and her soul burnt in fire.

But she wasn't the only one; the whole divine gold mine around was also burning as it was sacrificed to the heaven and earth!

Not only did he placed the altars to sacrifice Mother Da Zhen, Zhong Yue has also included the whole divine gold mine as part of the [Heaven and Earth Sacrificial Art]!

Mother Da Zhen was crying in pain but her destiny has inevitably arrived. Her Yuan Shen grew fainter, her spirit dispersed and her soul dissipated into the heaven and earth!

Zhong Yue raised his hand and recalled the Divine Wing Saber. As he swung it softly, the many Golden Feathery Peng Swords flew over and attached themselves back on the saint weapon. He kept the Divine Wing Saber back in his Yuan Shen secret realms, and he mumbled, "In truth, I was just planning to use the divine gold mine as a starter to oblate the whole City of Nature. However, I'm not sure if it would work at all, and also, my connection with the altars are cutted off as soon as I stepped into the city. But it truly is more than enough to kill you…"

What a pity, Mother Da Zhen couldn't hear it; else, she would most probably leave the Ancestral Star right away and would never ever come back anymore.

After all, it was way too terrifying to even think about it—the fact that you are being marked by someone so sly and cunning like Zhong Yue.

"If you are not taken down, I will never be able to eat well and sleep well. What if you told the world that I have acquired the treasures in the City of Nature? Or tell the others that I am a Fuxi?", Zhong Yue mumbled.

"The innate Qi, innate Qi… where can it be?", Zhong Yue glanced around the city.

All of a sudden, the crack on the city wall shuddered and was slowly closing like a wound that was healing!

The City of Nature was Patriarch Nature's mortal body. This ancient god must have also cultivated the Immortal Body, to a level beyond Zhong Yue's reach!

Although dead, his mortal body still remained to be 'immortal'. It could still recover the wounds created on it, even though the wound was created by the terrifying weapons like Haoyi Zither!

Zhong Yue's heart throbbed, he shouted, "Xin Huo, where can this innate Qi be at? Also, the spiritual energy Patriarch Nature has siphoned all these years?"

Xin Huo quickly shouted, "Not sure about the innate Qi, but the spiritual energy will be in his Six Paths Reincarnations! He has used the Six Paths Reincarnations to trap and manipulate the dead souls, the spiritual energy must be in them too!"

"Six Paths Reincarnations?", Zhong Yue was dawned.

Patriarch Nature has cultivated his six secret realms into a mini Six Paths Reincarnations, granting him with incredible powers!

Haoyi Zither killed Patriarch Nature's spirit but his Six Paths Reincarnations weren't destroyed. The six light wheels were floating around the city where Patriarch Nature died. But these six light wheels were incredibly huge, the largest one was nearly as huge as the city itself.It would be immensely difficult to keep them.

Zhong Yue dashed out while the City of Nature shuddered again, further closing the wound.

Zhong Yue cast the copper lamp and pushed all of his arcane energy into the copper lamp while he aimed the lamp at the six light wheels.

A huge force burst out from the shabby looking copper lamp, it distorted the dimension in front of it and pulled the six light wheels toward it!

Krong!

The city shuddered once again, the crack on the city wall was nearly closed.

Zhong Yue's face changed. Meanwhile, he has finally kept the Six Paths Reincarnations into the copper lamp. Immediately, he morphed into the form of the three-legged Golden Crow and shot out toward the crack on the city wall.

His body turned flat like a paper and slipped through the closing crack on the city wall. Another shuddering came from the city and the crack was closed. His three legs were caught in the city wall and stopped him from going further.2

But Zhong Yue has acted without any hesitation. He cast the Golden Feathery Peng Sword and severed his three legs away. Thus, he fell straight down onto the ground right outside of the city wall.

"Phew, I barely made it. If it was my neck that was caught in the city wall, I can then only decapitate myself. I wonder if the Immortal Body is able to keep me alive still in that condition.", Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief, his heart was still pounding heavily.

The divine gold mine was still burning, sacrificing itself to the heaven and earth. Zhong Yue looked at it for a few moments and knew it couldn't be saved anymore, not a single piece of divine gold would be left behind after the ritual.

Pity, this divine gold mine can bestow every Swords Gate disciple with a divine weapon…

He sighed and lamented in his heart. He took out the Six Paths Reincarnations from the copper lamp and inspected them. When he looked into the Yin Yang Reincarnation, he saw the bottomless pit with countless Fuxi skeletons trapped in it.

"My people…", Zhong Yue's eyes turned red and he laughed while tears rolled down his cheeks, "Come home with me!"

May your soul return to us, so that we can stand together in arms forevermore!

May your soul return to us, so that we will war against the world one last time!

May your soul return to us, so that the glory we have lost will be found again!

May your soul return to us…
