Chapter 1089 - Resign (1/2)
Chapter 1089: Resign
Feng Yuhuan was surprised. But the two experts were incredibly fast as they flashed past her at a speed beyond her reach. She tried to catch up to them but was too slow and soon gave up. Then, she turned and made her move toward the Jintian Clan in the Imperial Star.
On the other hand, Hundun Yu was back in the Hundun Clan’s sacred land. When the whole universe was in chaos and war was waged in every land, the Hundun Clan maintained neutrality. There weren’t many clansmen in the whole of Hundun Monarch Race, but each and every one of them was incredibly strong. Their prowess was not any weaker than any other monarch race.
Furthermore, the Hundun clansmen were all unconcerned with the affairs of the mortal worlds, they lacked lust and desire. And so such matters that pertained to mortal desires were things they didn’t care for.
In stark comparison, the unsophisticated Hundun Yu who was always seen as wooden and slow of speech was already the most active and talkative clansman in the whole Hundun Monarch Race.
Hundun Yu entered the saint palace and requested to see Great Monarch Hun Dun who was in slumber. Awakened by his descendant, Great Monarch Hun Dun yawned and heaved out a cloud of chaos.
“Hundun Yu, have you met the human? All these years observing and recording him, do you find anything?” Hun Dun opened his eyes and said insouciantly, “It’s not yet time for you to return, why the hurry coming back and waking me up?”
Hundun Yu said in a mixed feeling of anger and bitter, “Grand ancestor, the human has opened the seventh secret realm and starting to research on the Seven Paths Reincarnation. There are also many other monarch races’ clansmen that have also opened the seventh secret realm! But only I am the exception, I didn’t have anything, no saint herb, no monarch to help me, no seventh secret realm, no cultivation heritage, I’ve put shame to your name!”
Hun Dun laughed, “You’ve become quite eloquent from just one trip to the outside world. All these gabs, you are just asking for a Chaos Divine Fruit.”
Hope raised in Hundun Yu, he continued, “I must not embarrass you with my inferiority. Grand ancestor, if I cannot open the seventh secret realm, I will not leave the sacred land anymore. Grand ancestor can select and replace me with another senior martial sibling to stay with the human!”
“Mischievous child, playing mind games with me now I see.” Hun Dun laughed happily, “Among all my descendants, you are the most active and astute, if not you, then who? Fine, fine, fine, I’ll open your seventh secret realm for you.”
Hundun Yu was overjoyed.
A few dozen days later, Hun Dun held Hundun Yu by his neck and kicked him out of the saint palace. The young Hundun fell to the ground on his head with only his legs left visible above the floor.
“I’ve given you the saint herb, I’ve opened the seventh secret realm for you, I’ve even imparted my attainments in the Seven Paths Reincarnation, and you are still here shamelessly sticking around not leaving asking for more, where did you learn this from?”
Hun Dun could be heard saying from the inside of the saint place, “Get out, go back and continue the observation on the human.”
Hundun Yu helped himself out from the ground, he patted off the dirt on him and walked toward his house.
“Father, mother, I’m back to see you! It’s been a long time, I’ve missed you two!”
“Huh?”
“Father, mother, grand ancestor has sent me out in an arduous quest, I don’t know when will I be able to return, I’m afraid I will not have much time to accompany the two of you anymore.”
“I see.”
“Father, mother, aren’t you missing me?”
“Yu’er, you are talking too much again.”
…
In the Heaven Breaching Fortress, reinforcements were marching into the fortress continuously. The number had grown so large that they had to build another fortress beside the Heaven Breaching Fortress.
Zhong Yue stood on the walls of the Heaven Breaching Fortress and looked at the newly-built fortress. It was purple, huge and vast, and wasn’t at all inferior to the Heaven Breaching Fortress. He thought, King Zi Guang has arrived. He is really incredible, in just two years, he has taken care of the races in the base and arrived at the frontline.
The reinforcements were under King Zi Guang’s command, but they appeared just like amateurs when compared to Zhong Yue’s strong and high-spirited armies. By the looks of it, most of King Zi Guang’s armies would probably be recruited from the surrendered races. Their morale was not as high as Zhong Yue’s armies.
Jiang Yiqi also ordered the human race’s gods and formed an independent army in the Heaven Breaching Fortress. The human army was under Zhong Yue’s direct command.
Meanwhile, King Zi Guang and Di Xiuluo also walked up the walls of the Purple City and looked toward the Heaven Breaching Fortress. Di Xiuluo’s face turned solemn and spoke two words out of the blue, “Ferocious. Fiendish!”
“What?” King Zi Guang was startled, he asked.
Di Xiuluo waved his hand and King Zi Guang was lightheaded and when he recovered from it, he saw the world differently. The structures and surroundings were still the same, but no life was seen anywhere. Nearly a billion ghost fires filled the place, with each ghost fire representing a dead soul!
King Zi Guang was shocked, he felt as if he had entered an eerie ghostland!
“These dead souls were killed by King Yi’s armies, their numbers have reached hundreds of millions now!”
Di Xiuluo’s face grew incredibly dark, in just a few moments, he had spoken more than he had in the past hundred years. He continued, “The body count here has nurtured his armies into vicious beasts. Whereas for that King Yi, he is definitely an unparalleled king of viciousness! Look at us.”
King Zi Guang turned his head and looked at their armies, there wasn’t much ghost fire around, only sparsely spreading across the fortress.
Although in number, the Purple City’s armies were not too behind the Heaven Breaching Fortress’s armies, their morale was nothing compared to the Heaven Breaching Fortress’s armies.
King Zi Guang sighed, he thought, In terms of waging war and leading armies, I am no match for him. How nice would it be if he was Li Yang…
“Di Xiuluo, the vicious air locked the dead souls in one place for so long, why haven’t the souls dispersed or returned to the Six Paths Reincarnation?”
