Rise of Humanity

“Why is there a vast blood ocean here?”

In the carriage, one of the ladies looked blankly at the front where King Zi Guang hacked the waves apart to protect the carriage. Rogue waves raised and swarmed towards them and it seemed to like there were some kind of vile creatures lurking within the water. Each time the carriage was about to be swallowed by the tidal waves, King Zi Guang would cut the waves apart.

“This is an enmity blood ocean formed by Fuxi Celestial blood!”

King Zi Guang’s voice came from the outside, “After that one sided battle, Fuxi Celestial blood spilled all across the universe. The fallen Fuxi warriors’ blood and bodies then turned into this blood ocean. Their angry souls were furious at their extinction, thus, they refused to enter Six Path Reincarnation and with that, these angry wandering souls turned into the vicious souls they are now.”

“So that’s how it is.” said the lady, “Master really knows a lot of things.”

Suddenly, another King Zi Guang’s voice came from the top of the carriage, “Qing Er, I told you, whatever you see and hear is all fake. Who were you speaking to?”

The lady called Qing Er stunned for a moment and replied, “Of course it’s me that I’m talking to….”

The other ladies around here all shivered right away upon hearing the two King Zi Guang voices, which came from the blood ocean and the carriage’s roof respectively!

Just now, the voice Qing Er was talking came from the blood ocean!

Suddenly, Qing Er leaped down from the carriage into the blood ocean while a huge face emerged from the blood ocean and swallowed her down with Qing Er still putting up a smiling face.

The others in the carriage did not manage to stop her in time and they all felt a cold shivering down their spine in this scene.

What Qing Er saw and heard, they did not know. The reason she jumped down was unknown along with her death.

This blood ocean was endless, and the portal’s cosmic wave was completely useless here; all they could do was channel their own power into the carriage to keep it moving while King Zi Guang tried his best to repel the blood ocean.

Sometime later, the ladies, Dong Ah and Xi He finally saw a continent appearing in front of them gradually and they felt relieved right away, “We’ve finally reached the end of the blood ocean!”

Just when they were about to get down from the carriage, a horrid Xi He immediately shouted, “We are still in the space, how can there be land here?”

But it was too late; one of the ladies had already stepped out from the carriage and just when she was about to get back in after she heard Xi He’ warning, a whirlpool appeared beneath her, sucking her in and crushing her into pieces!

Seconds later, Dong Ah shrieked, “Teacher told us that everything we see and hear is all fake! We must not believe our eyes and ears now!”

Suddenly, a voice came from the carriage saying, “So… If what we see and hear is all fake, then are all of you in the carriage fake or real?”

The atmosphere became engulfed in silence. King Zi Guang’s wives and his two disciples glanced at each other wordlessly.

Then to their horror, they realized that there were twenty-two of them in the carriage; back then, there were 23 of them and with the two ladies that got killed by the blood ocean, there should only be 21 of them right now!

The worst part was that they failed to identify who the extra one was!

They looked at each other and they realized that everyone’s faces were extremely familiar, thus, no one knew who the extra person was.

“You guess it,” a laugh came from the carriage again, but no one was able to pinpoint where it came from.

Their faces turned pale and this time, with a shriek, someone launched an attack, causing the carriage to descend into chaos as everyone attacked each other to protect themselves.

After some time, the carriage finally got out from the blood ocean and right away, the blood ocean trembled and disappeared from the universe as if it never appeared.

King Zi Guang let out a relieved breath upon seeing this. He then got down from the carriage’s roof and when he entered the carriage, a thick and bloodied smell gushed out from the doors. King Zi Guang’s expression turned gloomy and he looked around, only to see blood and flesh splattered all over in the carriage. In this trip, he brought along 23 beauties with him and his disciples but now, only four of them remained, each hiding and shivering at a corner and they were all consumed by fear!

Around them within the carriage were missing limbs or were decapitated. King Zi Guang could not even tell who was killed by whom.

“Don’t come near me!” King Zi Guang’s first wife wailed and she charged towards King Zi Guang with her weapon as soon as she saw him.

King Zi Guang’s eyes twitched right away and when he looked at the remaining three survivors, he realized that they had also gone mad.

At his side, there were also a few bloodied words on one of the walls that read, “We will have our vengeance one day! You killed my people and now, I kill your family.”

King Zi Guang took in a deep breath upon seeing those words and with the light wheels behind his head spinning, he collected his wives and disciples’ souls, which got terrorized by this horrifying event, After he collected and patched them up with his Six Path Reincarnation, these souls gained their senses back and they were no longer insane.

“Let’s go. We are only safe when we reach the Bo Luo Six Paths World.”

King Zi Guang put up a calm expression, washing the blood and flesh away and burying his wives and disciples’ remains in his Yuan Shen Secret Realm before continuing his journey.

In his carriage, he took out the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror and looked at Zhong Yue who was frozen within the mirror after being suppressed with a dark expression. For a few times, he wanted to kill Zhong Yue but in the end, he would give up after thinking of the consequences.

I can still marry other ladies when my wives died, I can still take in more disciples when my disciples died but if I kill him, I am nothing more than a piece of dead meat….

King Zi Guang then kept the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror away and thought, I must not lose my temper just because my wives are dead! I can be involved into this matter but I must not involve myself too deeply.

The carriage continued to move forward and as they got closer to the Bo Luo Six Path World, the five of them finally felt relieved from the worries and pressure they were shouldering. Whatever those things were, they all happened within the space and when they arrived in the Bo Luo Six Path World, they would be safe under the Realm Monarch Bo Luo’s protection, the protection from someone who was so strong that he was merely a step away from becoming an Imperial Emperor.

And they were only safe after they handed over the mirror to Realm Monarch Bo Luo.

When the carriage got close to the divine battlefield, King Zi Guang hesitated for a moment and when he looked at the battlefield where the Heavenly Monarch’s blood shed everywhere from afar, he was a little unwilling to enter this place.

“My lord….” said his wife with a trembling voice softly.

“The alternate route will take an additional half year and no one can tell what will we run into during that period of time or if we can arrive safely in Bo Luo Six Path World.”

King Zi Guang felt conflicted at the same time as he said, “But if we take this path, who knows what kind of horrible things will happen to us in the divine battlefield? After all, this is the place where the last Fuxi Heavenly Monarch died….”

He was scared, scared to a point where he would be startled by a pin drop. Whatever happened throughout the journey were closely related to the Fuxi Celestial Race. That mist itself and the eerie ruins formed by the fallen Fuxi warriors from the ancient times were a testament to that.

“Half a year is more than enough time for these guys to set up the perfect ambush. We have no option but to take this gamble!”

He made up his mind right away and drove the carriage right into the divine battlefield.

Throughout the journey, everything was smooth; though the Heavenly Monarch’s skills scarred the divine battlefield greatly, they no longer contained any power, thus, King Zi Guang and his people managed to get through safely.

King Zi Guang paid full attention to the surroundings as they traveled within the divine battlefield and suddenly, loud rumblings could be heard. With the rumbles, the ancient Imperial Road of Heavenly Monarch appeared out of nowhere and a cosmic wave accelerated through the divine battlefield rapidly.

Then, one after another, ancient yet weathered warships sailed out from nowhere and countless gods of war from the Fuxi Celestial Race stood at the bows of these ships.

“Feng, Feng, Feng….”

Summonings were heard and these summonings turned the weathered warships and corpses back to their original form. King Zi Guang immediately stopped his carriage nervously and when he looked at these ancient warships, he raised the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror over his head and shouted, “Touch me and the man within the mirror is dead!”

As King Zi Guang threatened by killing Zhong Yue, the cosmic wave paved backward and swallowed the carriage.

King Zi Guang gritted tightly. He pretended that he was going to slam the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror and the cosmic wave disappeared along with the ancient warships.

Seeing this, King Zi Guang let out a long breath and by then, he noticed that he was covered in sweat. He was also exhausted by this incident and he could barely maintain his balance.

What a shame… I have no options but threaten to kill a little Fuxi to protect myself… Did anything happen when the cosmic wave rushed into us just now ?

He quickly checked on the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror and he eased his worried heart after seeing Zhong Yue remain trapped within the mirror.

They then quickly rushed out from divine battlefield and headed straight to Bo Luo Six Path World with King Zi Guang channeling all of his energy into the carriage to speed it up.

Once they arrived in Bo Luo Six Paths World, the burden and pressure on his shoulders were relieved right away. He quickly headed towards Realm Monarch Bo Luo and handed the mirror to the Realm Monarch and said, “This human is indeed a half-blooded Fuxi. I’ve isolated him within this mirror and he has nowhere to run in there. Senior martial brother, the journey back to the Zi Wei Galaxy is seven years long. Wait for my news here and after reporting back to the imperial emperor, I will contact you to wipe this human’s existence from this world entirely. Remember, you must not harm him at all before you receive word from me.”

Realm Monarch Bo Luo replied with a smile, “Of course. I will keep this mirror safe by my side and I will destroy every chance he has to escape.”

“I suppose he won’t be able to escape. This mirror is, after all, something crafted by a Heavenly Monarch, even if it was faulty, this human will have no hope of escaping. I’m more worried about those closely related to the Fuxi Celestial Race that would probably try to save him.”

King Zi Guang emphasized the importance of this matter repeatedly before departing for the Zi Wei Galaxy along with his disciples and wives.

I hope nothing happens anymore….

Meanwhile, Realm Monarch Bo Luo flipped and looked at the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror over and over again with a happy mood as he murmured, “I’ve finally gotten my hands on you, Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror. You may be a faulty item created by the Heavenly Monarch, but you are of great use to me as a chance for me to advance into the Imperial Emperor level! What a pity… I can only use you only after King Zi Guang contacts me seven years later….”

He then sent this mirror into the treasury within Heaven Court, planted down a seal inside the treasury to secure the mirror before he left. At the exit, he planted down another seal outside of the treasury again and left with a relieved heart.

“Seven years… After I kill this human, this mirror will be mine!”

As he was all over the moon, he and King Zi Guang did not realize that the mirror spirit within the mirror had not shown herself at all and they also did not know that when the carriage was overwhelmed by the cosmic wave, a wave of energy had rushed right into the mirror.
