Rise of Humanity

Chapter 1100 - Three Strikes



Zhong Yue was panting heavily and looked up at the incoming Panhu monarch spirits. In the Great Six Paths Reincarnation, his strength was equivalent to that of a Ghost Monarch. He thought he would be able to contend with the monarch spirits, but now, it seemed like there was still a huge gap between their prowesses!

To the Heavenly Monarchs that ruled, the prowess of a Ghost Monarch wasn’t even qualified to stand against them. Although Zhong Yue had boosted his atman’s prowess to that of a Ghost Monarch, he was still much weaker than the Panhu monarch spirits.

“The second.”

Five light wheels turned behind the Panhu monarch spirit’s head. In his nine eyes, there were also images of five light wheels turning. He said placidly, “Most of the races that exist can only open 5 secret realms, but those of the Panhu Clan are gifted with the ability to open 15. Although the extra secret realms are still the same type of secret realms as the Dao Yi, Yin Yang, Shen Cai, Wan Xiang, and Wu Xing, 15 secret realms alone have allowed us to stand above all other races. The skill I am about to unleash is known as the [Great Wu Xing Heavenly Amplification]. During my reign, no one has ever managed to counter it.”

Divine lights brimmed out of his nine eyes and the lights morphed into 45 light wheels. The light wheels were turning rapidly, buzzing as they flew out to at Zhong Yue!

Zhong Yue was shocked, he quickly swung the innate divine saber. Every light wheel had its own power of the five different secret realms. When all forty-five light wheels were coming down at him, Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen was distorted and nearly got diminished!

“Open!”

He continuously slashed out the saber at the light wheels. The totem patterns and Dao structures of the light wheels were changing so rapidly that he couldn’t see clearly. No matter how strong his [Dao Crusher] was, he couldn’t find a single flaw in the light wheels. The damage he had done would always be recovered in the matter of split seconds!

Whereas his arcane energy was depleting quickly and his connections to the Daos of heaven and earth were also faltering. Soon, he would be killed by the monarch spirit’s skill!

“Seven Paths Reincarnation, open!”

The heaven and earth trembled and Zhong Yue disappeared from the coverage of the light wheels. The Space Secret Realm was activated and he warped himself out from the [Great Wu Xing Heavenly Amplification], evading the monarch spirit’s attack.

The Panhu monarch spirit was surprised. He looked up and saw the sky separated into seven segments. In each segment, there was a Zhong Yue that was slashing down at him!

“Seven Paths Reincarnation? Space Reincarnation?”

Panhu monarch spirit was in awe, he praised, “Your secret realm is really incredible, it has many amazing uses. You’ve used your Seven Paths Reincarnation to make seven of you attack me. Splendid. No wonder my descendants summoned five of us monarch spirits to descend just for you.”

Seven Zhong Yues were attacking from the Seven Paths Reincarnation. By the looks of it, there were seven of them, but they were actually just one. It was hard for the others to comprehend but not the paragons like the Panhu monarch spirit.

To put it shortly, it was like Zhong Yue was standing in front of seven mirrors that were stacked together. When he reached his hand for the mirrors, his hand would have passed through all seven mirrors.

If each mirror were a world and the seven worlds were superimposed together. Whoever was in the mirror would see seven Zhong Yues reaching their hands out into the worlds.

In addition to the Seven Paths Reincarnation, it was possible to have seven Zhong Yues attacking the Panhu monarch spirit.

“The third strike!”

Panhu monarch spirit suddenly burst up, the Five Paths Reincarnation behind his three heads suddenly merged together. The 15 light wheels combined into one and his aura spiked as he lashed out his attack at the skies!

In just one strike, Zhong Yue’s Seven Paths Reincarnation twisted away and collided with one another. Seven Zhong Yues were squeezed together back into one.

Meanwhile, a sword ray flashed in the sky and a huge head rolled down from the sky. Other than the head, there was also a headless corpse!

The Panhu monarch spirit kept his skill and said placidly, “You still lost, you didn’t block my third strike. But as a Deity Overlord, to be able to drag me into this bizarre world and parry two strikes from me, you are more than qualified to be proud of yourself than anyone else… Huh?”

The huge head rolled to his feet and when he looked down at it, Panhu monarch spirit’s face changed slightly. The head was actually a black wok!

“This… the saint herb, Nine Lives Black Wok Mushroom?”

His facial expression turned funny to look at. He quickly looked up and saw the headless body turning into a huge mushroom with many black woks on its cap.

His killing blow did land on Zhong Yue, but at the moment of death, the saint herb had taken the hit in Zhong Yue’s place and switched his life at the cost of one of its caps!

What the killing blow truly killed was just a mushroom cap!

A hand clenched on the Nine Lives Black Wok Mushroom and disappeared. Then, the Panhu monarch spirit saw the Great Six Paths Reincarnation dispersing and they returned to the real world. Zhong Yue was holding on the saint herb and tucking it away in his Yuan Shen secret realms.

“Senior, three strikes are over,” Zhong Yue cleared his throat and said.

The Panhu monarch spirit gazed back deeply for a second. Then, he moved back into the Void World while saying, “A phoenix drenched in water is still, after all, a mighty phoenix. Fuxi, I will keep my promise. You can leave now. But…”

His voice echoed from afar, “We may meet again. At that time, revealing the Nine Lives Black Wok now will prove to be your downfall.”

Zhong Yue wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, he laughed and replied, “Senior, how sure can you be that I won’t be stronger than you the next time we meet?”

The Panhu monarch spirit frowned softly before disappearing into the void.

“How childish, your insights are exceptional, but you are still far from success!” His divine psyche rammed into Zhong Yue’s mind as he answered.

Zhong Yue laughed, he wanted to cast the innate mortal body but spurted out a mouthful of blood instead. His face changed slightly and he quickly snuck into the layers of dimensions while suppressing the injuries.

Mo Yin, Consort Tian Si, and the others were not far from here. They would be able to sense the ripples of the battle and would surely come to check. However, Zhong Yue had been injured quite severely, he had to remove the remnants of the monarch powers still lingering in his body before he could travel again.

Soon after, Mo Yin and the rest arrived on the scene. The Panhu experts morphed into their true forms and sniffed around. They concluded, “King Yi is hiding just nearby!”

Pan Ji also sniffed and he frowned, “He is hiding in the Nether. Raise the monarch weapon, force him out!”

The Panhu experts cast the monarch weapon and Pan Ji sniffed again, tracing Zhong Yue’s blood scent and pointed at a direction. He shouted, “There!”

Krong—

The monarch weapon’s power exploded out forward and tore the dimensions on its path. Vaguely, the experts could see Zhong Yue sitting in the lotus position in the Nether and was reduced into ashes by the monarch weapon’s power!

“Dead?”

Mo Yin and Consort Tian Si were both stunned to the fact that Zhong Yue had been killed just like that.

When the dimensions were torn apart, the experts witnessed Zhong Yue’s death under the monarch weapon’s power!

However, it was the world-renowned King Yi they were talking about. For him to die just like that, it was hard for them to believe.

Suddenly, Consort Tian Si’s hands waltzed in the air and she weaved a Karmic Line. She looked at his and her face changed drastically. She quickly said, “He is not dead, that was just his incarnation!”

As she finished talking, Zhong Yue abruptly walked out of the layers of dimensions beside her and pinched her cheeks.

Beads of cold sweat rolled down from Consort Tian Si’s forehead and with a burst of laughter, Zhong Yue disappeared from the scene.

Pan Ji and the experts rammed the monarch weapon again, but he was already nowhere to be seen!

“King Yi’s life is a hard one to claim, he even survived in this dire situation!” Mo Yin praised, “Gentlemen, the ambush is not a total failure! King Yi is severely injured, he will be heading for the Heaven Breaching Fortress. His injuries from the battle with the monarch spirit will not be easy to heal, he will have to take stops in his journey to recover from it. We will move now in pursuit. Consort Tian Si will be calculating his locations while the rest of you will track his scent.”

The Panhu experts nodded and Mo Yin and the rest quickly chased after him. Zhong Yue’s injuries were really severe. Normally, Zhong Yue would have been able to sense it immediately if Consort Tian Si tried to weave his Karmic Line.

But now, when Consort Tian Si was weaving his Karmic Line, he had no reaction against it. This could only mean one thing, Zhong Yue was so severely injured he couldn’t divert any attention to his own Karmic Line anymore, meaning that he was currently incapable of disrupting Consort Tian Si’s calculations on him!

“Strange, Consort Tian Si, King Yi is no idiot. Why did he still come back after running away?” Mo Yin was frowning as he said, “Did he come back to snatch the Panhu young lady? It shouldn’t be, right? King Yi is a womanizer, but he is not the kind that would risk his life for a lady he doesn’t even know.”

Consort Tian Si thought, “Perhaps, they have met before? Or does this Panhu young lady have some secrets in her? Clan Master Pan Ji, please check on the lady’s background.”

Immediately, Pan Ji had an elder run an inspection on the Panhu lady’s background. Soon after, the elder reported, “The young lady King Yi kidnapped is called Pan Suxin, a mix blood of the Tian Feng Sovereign Race and our Panhu Clan. Back in our glory days in the Earth Order Era, a Heavenly Lady of the Tian Feng Sovereign Race was married to us, leaving behind the phoenix’s bloodline in our clan. This is the first time Pan Suxin has left the State of Heavenly River. She is a newly ascended Deity and has never met King Yi before.”

Mo Yin and Consort Tian Si exchanged puzzled looks. Consort Tian Si mumbled, “Or is King Yi really a playboy who would even risk his life just to quench his lust?”

Mo Yin shook, “Definitely not. There must some other reason for his actions….”

On the other hand, Zhong Yue was warping away continuously. Suddenly, he lost his balance and crashed into a planet.

The injuries were getting out of control.

Zhong Yue muffled a deep groan, he mustered his energy to suppress the injuries again. Although he pulled through the Panhu monarch spirit’s three strikes, it wasn’t that easy to get rid of the remaining powers of the monarch skills inside of him.

Mo Yin and Tian Si will never leave this chance slip away. I can hinder the Panhu experts’ smelling senses, but Tian Si’s art of Karma can always track my locations. Furthermore, there is this little girl that is constantly reporting my position…

With a change of thought, the Panhu young lady was dragged out from his Yuan Shen secret realms. She was thrown to the ground and landed on her butt. In her hand was a totem pillar, which was clearly used to contact the Panhu Clan.

“So similar, so alike…” Zhong Yue looked at her and mumbled.
