Rise of Humanity

Chapter 609 - Observer



Two months later, Zhong Yue was still soaking in the ocean of stars, planets, and Yin and Yang lines. Around the entire Celestial Fire Star were stars and unknown symbols everywhere; their flowed quickened as time flashed by, while also turning even more complicated until they eventually became incomprehensible.

Jun Sixie and the others were all completely astounded and confused by the simulation of stars and planets. Bai Canghai tried to run the simulation and calculations himself but in just an instant, his psyche had become completely drained and struck by a heavy surge of dizziness. Ever since then, he no longer dared to look at the simulation around Zhong Yue.

“Found it!” Zhong Yue suddenly shouted and stood up while the stars and symbols around faded, leaving behind only nine stars; the sun, the five celestial stars, Ancestral Star, insect planet and another celestial body that appeared out of nowhere.

Then, the sun, the Ancestral Star and the other stars disappeared and only the star that appeared from nowhere remained.

“An extra star….”

Shi Buyi examined this star and he murmured, “Why is there an additional star, and where did this star come from?”

Zhong Yue, on the other side, couldn’t hide his happiness and said, “This star shouldn't be here in the first place. It must have come from the other galaxy. Judging by its trajectory, it seems to be in sync with the trajectory of the Solar System. After some calculations, I discovered that it was actually slightly off from the trajectory of the Solar System but perfectly in sync with the other stars and planets out there..”

“Thus, it is evident that this celestial body is a real star implanted into this universe!”

Qiu Jin’er, Jun Sixie, and the others did not quite get his words. And so Zhong Yue said, “Whatever stars and planets in the universe you see now are all fake, they exist only inside a scroll. But this star, it is real and is also included in the scroll. That being said… if we get past this star, will we be able to get out of the picture scroll?”

Everyone’s eyes immediately brightened up upon hearing Zhong Yue’s words.

Qiu Jin’er thought for awhile and said, “Senior martial brother, do you mean that through this star, we can actually reach the real universe?”

Zhong Yue nodded and replied, “Ladies and gentlemen, it will be a very long path ahead, let’s get prepared!”

Half a month later, Zhong Yue created a new teleportation array formation in the Celestial Fire Star while the others built a golden shining palace. After a bright flash, they were all teleported out of the Celestial Fire Star while the teleportation portal self-destructed after all its energy was depleted.

In space, a golden celestial palace flew into the dark space, then to the Wood Celestial Star. It exploited the gravitational force of this star to hurl the palace further away into the galaxy.

After another few months, Zhong Yue and the others finally arrived at Celestial Earth Star and they hurled themselves further away into the galaxy again.

The palace then flew past the insect planet but Zhong Yue, who was on a hurry to leave, only took a few glances at the planet from afar before no longer paying it any mind.

However, little did he know that under the thick layer of rocks on this planet were countless frozen insect eggs; these were the eggs of the insect race that are awaiting to hatch in the future, waiting to descend upon this world again to conquer the Solar System and the Ancestral Star.

And inside these eggs were insects that had yet to have their bloodline power sealed!

Some day in the future, when humanity steps foot on this planet, the eggs will hatch and the nefarious insect race will unleash its wrath once again!

The godly palace flew in the dark galaxy for another few months before finally arriving at the eighth star.

Zhong Yue did his calculations again to pinpoint the location of the Skymetrical Scroll, finally succeeding after a long time.

“Shi Buyi, it’s all on you now!”

Right away, Shi Buyi unsheathed his Eight Extreme Malefic Weapons, struck towards the ground and started digging. He spent almost a month time before he finally managed to burrow through this star.

Zhong Yue turned around and looked back only to discover that the beautiful stars of the Solar System were already far behind them to an extent where only their divine eyes were able to see them clearly.

“Senior martial brother, I wonder how long it will take for us to return from this long journey…” Qiu Jin’er murmured as she stood beside Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue gave her a smile and chased away the negative emotions in him and he replied, “Upon our return, I will help the humans become the rulers of everything, not just the Ancestral Star but all of the planets out there!”

He then laughed happily and entered the tunnel dug out by Shi Buyi.

Meanwhile, Jun Sixie, Bai Canghai and Shi Buyi all turned around while Bai Canghai said with a happy laugh, “Big lion, why are you crying? Will a monster god actually let out a tear?”

Shi Buyi wiped his tears off and he shook his head, “I’m not crying, I’m just feeling sad that I am now leaving the place that gave birth to me and the place where I grew up. Didn’t you see Master Zhong also cry?”

He then entered the tunnel and said, “The path I walk on right now is the beginning of a monster’s legend, it is indeed a shame that my kin on the Ancestral Star won’t be able to witness my journey”

Jun Sixie, who was still dozing off on the other side, waved at Ancestral Star.

Goodbye, my Ancestral Star.

At the outer solar system, in the cold space, Zhong Yue and the others spent almost a year to reach where they are; the lighting here was very dark but thanks to their own cultivation power, this was no problem for them.

They looked around, seeing only desolation everywhere; dust blanketed the ground, and giant rocks and glaciers floated in the air.

This place was like an ancient battlefield of gods. It was now reduced to a gigantic ancient ruin with god knows how many stars having been crushed into dust here.

“There is still a star over there!”

Zhong Yue quickly led everyone there and they saw a huge palace floating on the surface of this star.

They entered the palace and suddenly, Zhong Yue was stunned. There was a transparent ball on the star, and inside of it were the reflections of the Ancestral Star and the Solar System!

He quickly examined this star and his expression turned serious.

In truth, this star actually reflected everything about the Solar System, and even those hidden tombs within the void!

It even managed to cover the interior of the sun!

“Emperor’s Tomb!” Shi Buyi lost his voice for a moment and he shouted!

Jun Sixie and Qiu Jin’er let out a shout as well while Bai Canghai murmured, “What kind of existence in this world created such a huge star? Why is this star here? Why does the creator of this star want to observe the Ancestral Star and the Solar System?”

This palace was the perfect location for observation, obviously, there was someone who had always been here to observe the movement in the Ancestral Star and the entire Solar System!

“Brat Yue, I’m afraid that the master of this palace is the one that gave Feng Wuji the decree!”

Xin Huo said while he examined the totem carvings carved onto the walls around the palace. He discovered that the decree shared the same origins as the totem patterns, he then said in a seriously, “Seems like Feng Wuji managed to leave the Solar System through this god’s decree!”

“Strange, Feng Wuji’s scent was here!”

Shi Buyi, on the other hand, sniffed around and said suddenly, “Although it’s weak, this scent is definitely his!”

Zhong Yue then said, “So Feng Wuji also left the Ancestral Star through this place, which means there must be some kind of a portal around here, or he wouldn't have been able to leave. Lion, follow the scent. The place where his scent vanishes will probably be the location of the teleportation array formation!”

Immediately, Shi Buyi quickly walked around and entered the depths of the palace while following Feng Wuji’s scent.

This palace was huge but empty. It seemed as if someone had raided this place. Zhong Yue could vaguely discern Feng Wuji scent. Clearly, Feng Wuji had gotten here ahead of them took the liberty of plundering all the items here!

“Such great luck he has, being able to hone his skills under such a teacher and being able to have now have access to such precious items,” said Bai Canghai.

He then said again, “He is really incredible, this place is so empty now. It’s as if locusts had just invaded it!”

Meanwhile, Shi Buyi led the way, and after quite some time, they arrived at a hidden portal in the palace. But no one was happy since it had already been destroyed by Feng Wuji; he must have planted a timed spell so that the portal would be destroyed once he left this place.

Judging from the portal that occupied a huge area of ground, it must be an interstellar teleportation array formation that could teleport any living creature to a place far away. It was clearly beyond any kind of portal that Zhong Yue could create.

In front of the portal was a stone tablet that was covered in writing that was written in the ancient divine language.

The writings said, “This is a message to the descendants of that Ancestral Star that are lucky enough to arrive here. I am the Great Saint of the Feng Clan, Feng Wuji. Here, I have ascended as a god, and I mock those that ultimately failed to see a greater future. I am the only one that managed to become a great saint from those in the Ancestral Star. Kneel before me, pray at me and I shall grant you a way out of this place.”

This words lit a fire in everyone’s stomachs, and Jun Sixie immediately erased the “Feng Clan” wordings, “You dare call yourself one from the honorable Feng Clan?”

Qiu Jin’er destroyed the tablet and said, “Senior martial sister, I think it’s better that we destroy this tablet just in case the descendants of Ancestral Star who arrive here in the future actually take him as a great hero!”

Shi Buyi on the other hand, frowned and said, “What a character….. He destroyed the portal just to prevent anyone to get out from here! How are we supposed to leave if the portal is destroyed?”

Zhong Yue bent down and examined the totem carvings and ruins around the portal. His eyes lit up with hope, and he said, “Such low-leveled thinking. Feng Wuji thinks he can destroy the portal through brute strength, but as someone who knows nothing about teleportation totem carvings, he forgot that one can still repair this portal.”

He then took out a divine stone from the ruins of the portal and said, “As long as this divine stone is still here, we can still pinpoint the location he teleported to. Give me a few days while I fix the portal.”

After a few days, Zhong Yue repaired and rebuilt the portal and placed the divine stone into the portal.

“Old Man Six Paths, are you able to retrieve this palace?” Asked Zhong Yue quickly as soon as he thought of something.

The Six Path Fruit Tree had taken rooted in the godly soil in Zhong Yue’s Yuan Shen secret realms for quite some time. During this period of time, the old tree had been teaching Husan Weng. The other five of the Six Gentlemen of Returning Ruins did not follow Zhong Yue.

“I can,” replied Six Path Old Man.

He then asked again, “But if I take this palace away, where are you going to place the portal?”

Zhong Yue didn’t know how to answer this question; the portal was one with the celestial palace, which meant that by taking away the palace, the portal will be taken away as well, preventing them from teleporting away.

“This brat Feng Wuji really raided this place clean, leaving nothing behind for me!” Zhong Yue sighed.

They then entered the portal, and once Zhong Yue activated it, a bright light lit up and the portal started to tremble. The light then shrouded them and they all shot out towards the universe.

“Finally, we could get out there to have a look at the rest of the universe with our eyes!” shouted Bai Canghai as he laughed.

“Shut up!”

Everyone scolded him immediately, “Have you forgotten that you are a harbinger of bad luck? Watch your mouth, don’t bring us bad luck!”

The upset Bai Canghai then quickly kept quiet.

Zhong Yue laughed quietly at this scene, he turned around, faced at the Ancestral Star and recalled the time when he was still a young boy harvesting herbs in the mountains. That was the first time he met Xin Huo.

My Ancestral Star, my people, today I set out for a journey for all of you, wait till I come back….
