Shi Yinji stuck her tongue out and giggled, âThen what about these guys that died in one blow?â
âThey are in the bottom of the two to three thousand people.â
Zhong Yue said, âIf they survived, they wouldâve probably become monarchs in the future, but this was not a difficult path. There are so many geniuses in this universe but only a few of them will become a monarch in the future.â
âYouâre bragging!â
Shi Yinji did not buy his word, âWeâve not seen each other for such a long time and youâve become such a showoff! You canât possibly have become so strong after coming to Zi Wei for some time! Tell me, who are the ones that are not afraid of your dual sabers!â
Zhong Yueâs expression darkened down and said nothing else for these two were both his wives, one married and one to be marriedâ¦.
Of course, insane ones like Feng Xiaozhong was never within Zhong Yueâs consideration.
The Innate Saint Spirit Body Yin Fanxuan, the future Huaxu clanâs Nuwa, Hua Qianwen, these two ladies were both extremely powerful.
The problem was that both wives were both his main wives, Yin Fanxuan was the first to marry him, and given that she was the only Innate Saint Spirit Body, she had to be the main wife.
And the future Nuwa also had to be one, after all, Fuxi Celestial Race and Huaxu Clan had an ancient agreement and both were to marry each other since birth.
But with both of them being so powerful, problems would arise if neither one of them was the main wives.
Shi Yinji who knew no boundaries smiled, âSee, youâre bragging, you canât even tell who they are!â
With a darkened expression, Zhong Yue thought,_ I canât deal with you but the two could deal with you! Letâs see if you could talk so sharply by then!â_
Yi Wanjun whispered, âYinji, stop talking, just look at his face.â
Hundun Yu on the other hand, seriously said, âMister Yi is not bragging, both goddesses will know once arriving Zi Wei. Mister Yi is really outstanding.â
The two ladies were not convinced at all and Shi Yinji giggled, âYou are his friend, of course you will speak highly of him. Senior Martial Brother Yu, how high do you think you place among the two to three thousand people?â
âOn the top of course, I am the first in the True Deity Board.â
âYou both sure can brag!â mocked Shi Yinji.
Hundun Yuâs face flushed and he stuttered, âI did not! Iâm telling you the truth, I come from a sovereign race and the old ancestor even gave me his monarch weapon ...â
âThen where is the weapon? I will only be convicted if I see it!â smiled Shi Yinji.
Hundun Yu was stunned for a second and he explained, âMister Yi left it in the Heaven Suppression Fortress, I will show it to you when we return! I really do have a monarch weapon! Mister Yi is also titled as King Yi, he is a well known and widely respected commander with countless gods serving under him!â
Shi Yinji giggled again and she whispered to Yi Wanjun, âThey sure can brag! This guy seems honest but in truth, he is as dishonest as darling!â
The two of them definitely did not buy what they said; 600 years ago, Zhong Yue had arrived at Zi Wei empty-handed. She simply refused to believe that he had become undefeatable in his realm and even gained a great army in such a short time.
Zhong Yue, who knew how crazy Shi Yinji was, decided not to dwell into this matter and he examined the Create Evolve Mystical Gate in front of him.
Create Evolve Mystical Gate was Great Monarch Zao Huaâs monarch weapon, buried here along with Great Monarch Zao Hua. When Great Monarch Zao Hua activated this gate, only those that walked out of the gate could continue.
This was the first test to enter the Ancestral Court.
There were endless patterns all over the gate, all of which were Great Monarch Zao Huaâs understanding towards creation and evolution.
In the Create Evolve Mystical Gate, Feng Yulan and the others exited from the other side of the gate; many of their junior martial brothers and sisters lost their lives in the Create Evolve Mystical Gate and after a series of tragedy and crisis, only six among the initial eighteen remained standing.
Feng Yulan turned around and took one final look at gate that stood high up.
Seems like the only way is to continue, shame that my junior martial brothers and sisters were killed in the gate.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
With a heavy heart, Feng Yulan continued with the remaining five.
After some time, the Dark Monarchâs three Daoist children all exited unscathed.
One of them said, âGreat Monarch Zao Hua is not bad, but still not as great as teacher. This test isnât even hard.â
Not long later, Primordial Crow Deity Kingâs two disciples walked out for the other three had lost their lives.
Sometime later, Imperial Emperor Gao Yin led the five evil gods out, all unscathed and they smiled, âSenior martial brother is impressive!â
Gao Yin was enlightened and he proudly said, âWith those fools scouting for us, I can guarantee no one will be hurt!â
Suddenly, a light flew past him and Gao Yinâs expression changed right away after a second of dozing off.
âThat existenceâs inheritor is also here?â
With an unstable expression, he murmured, âIs that existence also eyeing the Fuxi Celestial Raceâs wealth?â
âSenior martial brother, who is in the light?â asked a sinister god.
Gao Yin walked forward and he shook his head, âThis you do not need to know. But know this, that person inside the light might be the most threatening one here! Be careful! From now on, only by working together will we be able to strive from the hardship! Huh? This gate is still here? Someone apart from us has also entered Ancestral court?â
âGreat Monarch Zao Huaâs Create Evolve Mystical Gate....â
On the other side of the gate, Zhong Yue took a close look at the patterns, trying to decipher Great Monarch Zao Huaâs arts. After some time, he took out a spirit ball, faced it at Great Monarch Zao Huaâs Create Evolve Mystical Gate and murmured, âThis spirit ball is corresponding to Zao Hua Six Paths World, right?â
Just as the spirit ball appeared, the earth and Create Evolve Mystical Gate rumbled vigorously and tremendous monarch presence erupted!
The ground under their legs upheaved, a palm reached out from the underground and lifted them up along with the gate.
Yin Shiji screamed, hugged onto Yi Wanju right away and Hundun Yu quickly hug onto a pillar, only to have his mind went blank upon realizing that there was no way that a pillar would appear in a palm.
He quickly let go after realizing what he thought was a pillar was in fact, a finger.
Zhong Yue stunned for a second and when he kept the spirit ball away, the massive monarch corpseâs hand sank back to the ground.
When he took out the spirit ball again, the palm emerged and sank back when he kept the spirit ball away.
Time after time, Hundun Yu could no longer handle the stress and he coughed, âMister Yi, please!â
âAlright.â
Zhong Yue nodded, placed the spirit ball beside his head and whispered, âIf your soul is still with us, Great Monarch Zao Hua, if you can hear my prayers, please borrow me the gate. In return, I will recover Great Monarch Zao Huaâs soul so that you will be completed again!â
Yi Wanjunâs eyes widened upon hearing the whisper and she shouted, âDar⦠Darling, Donât tell me you are intending to take the gate away?â
Her words were ignored as Zhong Yue continued praying sincerely, again and again and he reached his hands out trying to lift the Create Evolve Mystical Gate.
Hundun Yu and the other twoâs mind went blank, Create Evolve Mystical Gate was a test, one to test the mettle of those wanting to enter Ancestral Court, how was it possible for him to take the gate away?
Wasnât this a little bit of a fat hope? Did he not know what he canât do?
As Zhong Yue was praising, the hand under them slowly emerged and the fingers closed, Great Monarch Zao Huaâs corpse revealed his head and when his ears emerged, the monarch corpse paused as if it heard Zhong Yueâs prayers, it sank back into the ground again.
Shi Yinji smiled, âDarling, stop dreaming for the impossible. This gate is a monarch weapon, you donât possibly think that a monarch weapon will yield to you by saying only some prayers? If this is possible, the gate would have been taken by the others ...â
Before she finished her words, the gate rumbled, ascended into the skies and when it flew up, it shrunk quickly and landed in Zhong Yueâs hands.
âWhat?â
The trioâs eyes popped out upon seeing Zhong Yue really did take the monarch weapon away!
The impossible had happened right before their own eyes!
With the gate in his hand and the spirit ball in the other, Zhong Yue finally understood why Dao Venerate Fu Min left these spirit balls to him.
And what purpose they served Zhong Yue had a rough idea.
At the front, Gao Yin, Feng Yulan, Mo Yuanshu and the others sensed this right away and they were all a little stuttered after the gate disappeared.
Seems like there is a formidable foe followed into this place behind us. He might be the one who was experiencing the Dao Assimilation.
Gao Yin thought, He must be very powerful to have escaped from Dao Assimilation. The disappearance of the gate also means that there is no one else after him.
Zhong Yuelifted the gate in his hands and as he examined it closely, he confusedly thought, What kind of test is in this gate that cost so many Deity Emperors and Creators their lives?
He knocked on the door and smiled, âHey little ones, why donât you explain?â
Yi Wanjun and Shi Yinji were both confused about who he was talking to and that was when a creaking sound was heard, the gate opened and two chubby children stuck their heads out in curiosity.
These two little ones had no legs as their lower half was just air.
Zhong Yue smiled, âLittle Dao buddies, what is your name?â
The two little children rode on the air and flew towards him while the little girl said, âIâm Left Gate.â
âAnd I am Right Gate.â said the other boy.
Shi Yinjiâs eyes lit up right away but just as she was on the verge of losing control and was about to hug onto the two cute little ones, Yi Wanjun quickly said, âThose are monarch weaponâs spirits, you mustnât offend them or we would be killed right away!â
âThen let us lure them, one each?â suggested Shi Yinji softly.
Yi Wanjun hesitated for a second but she gave in quickly for she too, found the two children adorable.
Zhong Yue on the other hand, asked, âCan you tell me what did the gods experience in the gate?â
âWhat they experienced is the monarchâs experience.
The little girl said with an extremely sweet voice, âThose who enter the gate will experience all the crisis a monarch gone through.â
The little boy added, âThe monarch stimulated his own experience into a test and only by passing 80 levels in the gate will someone pass the test.â
âItâs 81 levels!â corrected the little girl.
âBut the monarch died in the last level, so itâs 80!â rebutted the little boy.
