Chapter 581 - The【Skills of Diction】

However, Shi Buyi somewhat sensed the bad intentions behind Zhong Yue’s warm words. Shi Buyi knew what kind of man Zhong Yue was, this young human would never be so kind to other races, especially monsters.

He saw no legitimate reason for Zhong Yue to help him, and furthermore, why would one have to kill gods to become one?

It sounded easy to kill a god, but which god was ever an easy target? Shi Buyi reckoned that he would most probably end up killed instead.

He said he wanted me to kill the gods to help me break through, but I think he just wants to take revenge on the gods for sending him to the insect race. But… are we really capable of killing the gods?

Shi Buyi grew nervous, although he regarded himself as more talented than the gods, he was still not a god yet; even with Zhong Yue, it might still be no different to suicide to stir trouble with the gods.

But he couldn’t simply say ‘no’ to Zhong Yue either as his life was in the latter’s hands.

Even though Zhong Yue seemed to be gentle now, it was not impossible for the young man to become an incarnation of a vicious beast in the next second. By then, not only would Shi Buyi have to pull through the unbearable pain, but he would have lost his dignity in front of the monster race as well!

Left without any other choice, Shi Buyi could only agree and accept Zhong Yue’s ‘good will’, with feigned gratitude.

“Ease yourself, lion.”

The two walk out of the Xian Kong Saint City, and Zhong Yue comforted Shi Buyi when he saw the cold sweat on the Shi Buyi’s head, “The gods are gravely injured by the moon god and Xiao Mang grand ancestor, they won’t be able to recover so quickly. We are more than sufficient to handle one wounded god at a time, it is not as hard as you think.”

On the other hand, Shi Buyi was shouting in his heart, “The gods are injured a year ago, even if they have yet to fully recover, most of their injuries are already in control now.”

Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes as he said, “But the moon god and Xiao Mang grand ancestor scared them a lot, they went into hiding. But this won’t be too much of an issue… Shi Buyi, you are the monster overlord, do you know where the gods are?”

Shi Buyi shook his head rapidly, he wouldn’t tell even if he knew; there was no way he would tell Zhong Yue about the gods’ locations.

“The West Barren gods are easier to find, they should be in their temples. Guess like we will have to head to the West Barren first for now!”

West Barren, Xiao Mang supreme temple.

The Xiao Mang white-robed priests knelt humbly in front of the temple, awaiting Xiao Mang grand ancestor’s rebirth. These few days, the supreme temple was shrouded in godly rays and emanated an entrancing fragrance, clearly, the possession was a success, the grand ancestor would walk out through the door anytime now.

All of a sudden, the supreme temple’s doors opened, and Feng Wuji gently walked out in a yellow dress and an umbrella.

“We welcome the grand ancestor’s return!” The white-robed priests knelt humbly and shouted in unison.

Suddenly, Feng Wuji laughed loudly, he said, “Grand ancestor? Xiao Mang grand ancestor is dead!”

The white-robed priests were stunned, they looked up and saw Feng Wuji sitting down in the middle of the supreme temple while calmly saying, “But I can be your grand ancestor. From now onward, I am your Wuji grand ancestor. I want all of the godly statues in the Xiao Mang Celestial Race to be changed into that of my own, even the Xiao Mang grand ancestor’s statues will be changed into mine. From here onwards, the Xiao Mang Celestial Race can only worship me!”

An old priest was piqued in anger, he stood up abruptly and shouted out of indignation, “Xiao Wuji, you unfilial fiend, how dare you…”

Bang—

Feng Wuji did was to raise a finger up and the old priest’s head exploded. And when the old priest’s Yuan Shen dashed out from his mortal body to escape, Feng Wuji casually opened his umbrella and closed it again. The old priest’s Yuan Shen was then sucked into the umbrella and ground to ash.

The other priests were bewildered, all kinds of emotions filled their eyes and faces. Immediately, a huge portion of them knelt down and kowtowed at him while chanting in unison, “Wuji grand ancestor!”

But there were a few that refused to pledge their allegiance. Feng Wuji flicked his fingers rapidly and the last thing the priests heard before their deaths was a cold hum that came from them.

“I have even killed the Xiao Mang grand ancestor, let alone you weaklings.” It was only after he killed the priests that Feng Wuji said, “Maybe all of you should learn how to evaluate the situation and make the right choices in your next life. As for the rest of you, do as I command.”

The other white-robed priests stood up and left; if one looked closely enough, their bodies were still shivering even after they left the supreme temple.

The Xiao Mang Qi Practitioners were ordered to break the godly statues away and replace them with Feng Wuji’s statue above the ruins. The order was to be carried out with immediate effect, and no one was allowed to worship any other object other than Feng Wuji in the future. Any act to resist his will would be considered as treason that was punishable by death!

On that day alone, mountains of corpses were piled up in front of the Xiao Mang Celestial Temples, all of them were the experts that refused to submit to him.

Then, the rest of the Xiao Mang Qi Practitioners blew out fire from their mouths and incinerated the corpses. The smell of death gushed up into the sky and lingered across the Xiao Mang territory for days after the incident.

After all that was done, Feng Wuji could be said to have taken total control over the whole Xiao Mang Celestial Race.

Xiao Mang grand ancestor that old dog underestimated me, he said I will never become a god, but the energy I have siphoned from him is actually sufficient to ascend to godhood. All I need to do is keep on fighting so that the battles will allow me to absorb and convert his energy into my own. They’ll also serve to help me gain new insights. I will be the greatest god the Ancestral Star has ever seen!

Feng Wuji’s decisiveness played a huge part in ruling the whole Xiao Mang Celestial Race, he became its supreme leader in just a few day’s time. Then, he raised his umbrella and pointed at the Bi Fang Celestial Race.

In just a day, the Bi Fang Celestial Temples were torn to the ground and the godly spirits killed. Countless Bi Fang experts were held captive and even more died in the war. The godly statues were all pushed down and replaced by Feng Wuji’s statues.

The Bi Fang Celestial Race was a strong celestial race that was no weaker than the Xiao Mang Celestial Race. They had a god on their side as well, but the Bi Fang goddess died by the hands of Xiao Mang grand ancestor. Thus, they had nothing that could stop Feng Wuji’s assault. Only a few eminent Bi Fang Qi Practitioners were able to escape death and imprisonment.

Over the next few months, Feng Wuji annihilated a number of celestial races; killing their godly spirits and replacing their statues with his own, slaughtering those that resisted.

Meanwhile, he had converted many of Xiao Mang grand ancestor’s energy in his body through battles with the godly spirits. Eventually, Feng Wuji had reached had arrived at the Gui Shen Celestial Race’s territory, and behind him was the Xiao Mang Celestial Race and an army formed by the captives of the other races.

“Wei Xue, the God of Blood.”

Feng Wuji glared emotionlessly at the Gui Shen Temple, he said, “I know you are not dead yet, you are here healing your wounds with the power of worship, but it all ends here and now, come out and meet with your death!”

All of a sudden, a burst of godly aura pierced through the sky, the clouds turned bloody and a blood-soaked god emerged in the sky. The giant god seemed to be formed purely from the coagulated blood, but not a single drop of blood sprinkled down from the sky.

“Xiao Wuji, how dare you taunt me, and challenge the Gui Shen Celestial Race.” The God of Blood’s eyes were also made from the coagulated blood, he laughed and said, “You are just a pet dog that the Xiao Mang grand ancestor keeps under his leg, he can eat you anytime he wants. Is he the one that gave you the courage to taunt me? Doesn’t matter anyway, I will still kill you anyhow!”

Bloody clouds sunk down from the sky like a blood ocean while Feng Wuji’s armies cast out their divine weapons, forming array formations in order to push it off.

In just seconds, the blood ocean had fully swallowed the array formations in it, only the Qi Practitioners inside of the array formations were able to push out the blood ocean. Suddenly, one of the array formations was thwarted by the blood water, and it failed; the blood water seeped into the array formation and turned the over thousand Qi Practitioners inside into skeletons.

“Hahaha, just nice that I have some injuries that requires a lot of energy to heal, your minions make a perfect tonic. Xiao Wuji, I’m starting to feel grateful. I might even think of sparing your life!” Wei Xue God laughed loudly.

Feng Wuji opened his umbrella, it enlarged as it flew up the sky, and it abruptly sucked the whole blood ocean into it, including Wei Xue God.

“Your arcane energy, how can it be so strong?!” Wei Xue God’s face turned dark, he shouted in shock as he was sucked into the umbrella. When the umbrella was closed, the canopy was soaked with blood and was eroded away, leaving it with only the rib assemblies.

An ocean of blood surged out from the umbrella and Wei Xue God stood above the streaming bloods.

But just as he freed himself out from the umbrella, Feng Wuji slammed his hands down on him.

Krong—

The blood ocean exploded and Wei Xue God’s mortal body scattered into blood.

“I have taken over the old dog Xiao Mang grand ancestor.” Feng Wuji strode above the water, his body shuddered and two Pan Ao heads grew out from his neck, glancing vigilantly to the sides.

Meanwhile, one of the Pan Ao heads said, “I need you to give me more pressure, to help me in breaking through to deityhood, to cultivate the Pure Yang Yuan Shen!”

Hua—

Wei Xue God formed himself in the blood ocean again, he opened his hands and many blood dragons lunged out toward Feng Wuji. He laughed while saying, “Then, I shall fulfil your death wish! You’ve made a mistake to step into my Blood Rive Array Formation. Don’t worry, I will not let you die so soon, I want you to watch as I suck away every single ounce of energy within your body!”

The blood dragons were striking from many directions. But Feng Wuji stood still, and he said the magic word, “Still!”

He spoke a language that even Wei Xue God has never heard of before, it sounded ancient, and imbued a profound skill within.

This single word alone has stopped the blood dragons still in mid-air, they were unable to move even for a single inch.

Wei Xue God yelled and suged his power into the blood dragons, extricating the dragons and they pounced down at Feng Wuji again.

“Seal!”

“Lightning!”

“Slash!”

Feng Wuji spoke one word at a time, loud and clear. The blood dragons and Wei Xue God were first sealed, then struck by the lightnings and killed by the saber rays; the skills were so powerful that even Wei Xue God had to raise his defense against them.

All of a sudden, Wei Xue God took a step back and disappeared in Feng Wuji’s senses. It was the natural ability of the Gui Shen Celestial Race, to hide themselves in the void, and wait for the chance to assassinate their targets.

The words Feng Wuji spoke were exceptionally strong, he couldn’t let his guard down and decided to use the natural ability of the Gui Shen Celestial Race to assassinate him.

“Heaven!” Feng Wuji abruptly gritted his teeth and chanted. His body suddenly turned as mighty as the heaven; right at this moment, a bloody hand came out from the void and clawed on his body, leaving only a severe injury instead of killing him.

“The 【 Skills of Diction】 is really a strong skill!” Feng Wuji laughed, the wounds of his mortal body healed right away. He didn’t cultivate the Immortal Body, but the abundant energy from the Xiao Mang grand ancestor contained immense life force that could heal any kind of wounds in just the matter of seconds!

“Seal!”

Without any worries left, Feng Wuji spoke another word and forcibly pushed Wei Xue God out from the void. Then, the two of them engaged in a bone-rattling battle in mid-air.

A thousand miles away, Shi Buyi was in his true form, a giant lion with nine heads, while Zhong Yue sat on his back. The two of them watched the battle from far and Zhong Yue’s face changed drastically, “When did Feng Wuji became so strong?”

“Master Zhong, you are no match for Feng Wuji now, let alone killing the gods!” Shi Buyi sighed and said.

Zhong Yue stared closely at the battle and shook his head, “Maybe not! Feng Wuji’s cultivation base is unstable, it’s the ancient words that he is really rely on. Without that, he might not even stand a chance against me.”
