Rise of Humanity

Chapter 356 - The First Exchange

The fire ocean was burning as the emerald leaf sailed out from it. The Demon Queen, the demon concubines, and the court ladies all jumped down from the emerald leaf and landed on the ground.

The Demon Saint stood steadfast on the leaf stem, raising his head and looking up at Zhong Yue on the top of the mountain. He then took a good look at the surroundings and was startled as he saw Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine, and the other ladies thirty miles away from him. He shook his head and said, “Back down, Mister Mo Luo is hoping for a fair and square battle, there is no need for you girls to intervene.”

Demon Queen then led the ladies and also pulled back for thirty miles, ending up near Tian Mo Concubine and the other ladies. She then smiled and said, “Demon Saint is here now, Tian’er, you are still not giving in?”

Tian’er was Tian Mo Concubine’s childhood name that the others didn’t know, but the Demon Queen was someone who did.

Tian Mo Concubine then answered with a smile, “We women live on our own just like every other man out there, why do we need to rely on these ugly men? I believe that this world could have a few lady demon gods, Yun’er, what do you think?”

Yun’er, Demon Queen’s childhood name. It was a huge event when the eight saint clans were selecting the Demon Queen and demon concubines for Demon Saint, the ladies knew each other fairly well. After all, they had gone through a series of fights and schemes to end up as the eight demon concubines, or even the Demon Queen.

Demon Queen have called her by her childhood name and she called back the same, this was a verbal fight between them.

Demon Queen smiled, andsaid leisurely, “Tian’er, you are still as naughty now as you were then, full of wild ambitions. However, the Demon Saint is the son of the heaven, he is destined to unite the Eighth Barren once again, sit on the throne as the Demon Lord and the Ancestral Star will be in his grasp. I know you have wild ambitions, you told the world that Mister Mo Luo have forcibly taken you down but in truth, you and this Mo Luo have come together as a team to go against the Demon Saint. Tian’er, if you ignore my advice again, you will only end up as an oblation on the altar.”

“Our goals are different, and so our paths differed. You want to stay the Demon Queen and be the one queen to the world, but I wish to conquer the world with my own prowess!” Tian Mo Concubine chuckled, “Yun’er, it’s been a long time since we fought, hasn’t it? Today is such a nice day, why don’t we compete for awhile? Let little sister have a look at what improvements you have made while following around the Demon Saint, other than your skills in bed!”

Demon Queen raised her brows in surprise, she smiled tenderly and said, “I know you have your own little plans, hiding your prowess away, and you didn’t even go all out during the selections. If only you have contended with me for the place of the Demon Queen, your prowess would long be beyond mine by now. Yet, you gave up the spot of the Demon Queen to me, and now, challenging me again will only cause your death.”

Tian Mo Concubine rose into the air, and she then pounced over at the Demon Queen. The surroundings turned into a sea of Yu Lan Flowers, the lady’s blouse fluttered above the flowers and she said with all smiles, “Yun’er, seems like sleeping with the Demon Saint has given you a sense of superiority!”

Demon Queen swung her sleeves and also moved toward Tian Mo Concubine, replying placidly, “It’s not that I’ve a sense of superiority, but the Demon Saint have taught me a lot of skills and arts, pointing out the ways of cultivation to me and allowed me to stay above the others. Else, how do you think I can be the queen that manages his concubines and ladies? All the things he taught me are exactly meant to suppress naughty girls like you, Tian’er!”

The two ladies were the most noble women in the Eighth Barren demon race, and now, they were filled with killing intent, going all out against one another!

The two ladies fought in a death battle, but unlike the ordinary battles, they seemed to be duo-waltzing with their beautiful skills on display around them.

The more peaceful it looked, the more dangerous it was!

The cultivation techniques they practiced were god-level techniques, they were the most intelligent women in the Eighth Barren. Hidden within the beautiful-looking skills were deadly blows, the slightest moment of inattention would lead to death.

Ji Xiang Concubine, Saint Concubine, and the other concubines stood outside of the battlefield and watched them. Among the eight concubines, Saint Concubine of the Asura Saint Clan was said to be the strongest, her arcane energy was strong and thick and with her around, the other demon concubines dared not act rashly.

Meanwhile, thirty miles away from them, Demon Saint opened his hand and the emerald leaf flew into his palm, shrinking to the size of an ordinary leaf while hovering there.

At the same time, disordered and complex totem patterns were fusing with one another in Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean, his aura turned unstable, fluctuating between strong and weak, celestial and demon, all sorts of changes were taking place, and his aura was in a state of chaos.

Demon Saint walked over, he was surprised at Zhong Yue’s state and he then said leisurely, “Ah, so Mister Mo Luo is cultivating. You’ve challenged me and yet, you are now preparing yourself. It seems like you’ve seen me battle with Shura and you’ve thought, ‘Ah, I’m can’t best him’, and so, here you are, trying to gain another breakthrough in prowess before the battle.”

Zhong Yue’s chaotic aura felt like countless stars and planets ramming into one another. He couldn’t stabilize them, as each time they clashed, his arcane energy would plunge into disorder and the totem patterns in his psyche ocean were still messed up.

However, just as Demon Saint stepped onto the mountain top, his aura stopped changing. A sun had emerged in the center of the stars and the order of the universe was restored as the stars were now orbiting around the sun.

Zhong Yue opened his eyes and looked over at Demon Saint, complimenting the other in his heart.

The Demon Saint was an outstanding man. The mortal body he had possessed was Yan Moluo’s; it had green skin, a dreadful appearance, and looked like a demon among the demons. However, as the Demon Saint had possessed his new mortal body, he had changed the mortal body to better suit to himself.

Green became gold, his stature turned more slender and muscles more well-proportioned.

The dreadful appearance of the Yan Luo Saint Race had changed into an unworldly air. One had to be honest, Demon Saint had the air of a convincing leader. Standing there just by himself, he could convince the demons to join with him, and any thoughts of rebellion would be eradicated right in front of him.

Yet, Zhong Yue knew that Demon Saint wasn’t the wise and sagacious leader he appeared to be. In fact, the days of his reign were the darkest days of the demon race! He was just a licentious and overbearing leader!

“Demon Saint.” Zhong Yue greeted him.

Demon Saint looked at him and was shocked. He said curiously, “You are not a revived god, and are not even a demon! Strange, how can you cultivate the demon cultivation technique? Oh, there is also the air of the celestials about you, are you a celestial? No, no, you are not a pure celestial…”

He was perspicacious, in just a few seconds he saw through Zhong Yue’s false appearance, but not his origin.

Zhong Yue smiled gently as he said, “Demon Saint, does my race matter? Shall we?”

Demon Saint was laughing, he answered calmly, “Indeed it is not, you are meant to die and so what does it matter? Such a young age and you’ve such achievements, you are good. However, without living two lives, your foundation is just lacking. If you were given time, you might just be able to compete with me.”

The nine demon gods appeared behind him, they stood on the altar in the void and every demon god have five light wheels behind them, their own Yuan Shen secret realms. With the forty-five light wheels, Demon Saint’s aura was growing stronger.

Wong——

Five light wheels emerged behind him, and included the nine demon gods within them.

Zhong Yue opened his divine third eye and looked at them. In the center of the altar where the nine demon gods were worshipping, there was a faint image of a god. It only had a head, but even so, it was unearthly strong. Its eyes opened and the world was suffused with an overbearing aura!

This was the true 【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】!

Innate demon god! He has used that demon Creator to complete his 【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】!, Zhong Yue looked at the demon god’s head and was shocked.

“What a pity you won’t have the chance to do so anymore.” The Demon Saint smiled and put his hand out. The emerald leaf was used as a sword as he slashed down at Zhong Yue.

His skills were mingled into one. Although the sword looked simple, there were many little chains around it, Zhong Yue could vaguely see the skills surrounding the leaf sword, enhancing the emerald leaf.

In Zhong Yue eyes, this sword was appallingly terrifying!

To the others, the leaf was still a leaf, but in his eyes, the skills surrounding the emerald leaf became bigger, stronger, and more overbearing.

Demon dragon, demon elephant, demon lion, dark phoenix, fire demon, water demon, and every other kind of totem pattern was surrounding the emerald leaf, getting clearer in shape and their powers getting stronger!

Everything around Zhong Yue had turned into black and white, every sound around him disappeared. It felt like all of his senses were wiped off, and all that was left was the emerald leaf.

The simplest move was the greatest skill, simplicity was the manifestation of the complex world. Demon Saint had used the emerald leaf as a sword and slashed out a single attack that contained every other skill in it!

Zhong Yue sucked in a deep breath of air, he morphed into the three hundred sixty foot Fuxi True Form and the 【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】 emerged, the dragon carving split the Yin and Yang apart, while the sun and moon arose within, fusing the celestial and demon into one.

He unsheathed the Golden Feathery Peng Sword from his light wheels and slashed the golden sword toward the emerald sword.

At the same time, he pushed his other hand out, there was a Yin and Yang revolving in the center of his palm, and the world was given color again, sounds could heard and his senses came back.

Demon Saint’s face turned gloomy, he raised his other hand and also pushed forward. At the same time, the two swords struck at one another, the feather and leaf were stuck together and moving incredibly slowly, as if they had fallen into a swamp.

Chi——

The invisible Sword Qi slashed onto the bright moon and put a huge opening on the moon, the tip of the crescent moon fell off and crashed into the fire ocean.

Kacha!

A rift over twenty miles long deep was created on the ground!

Kacha, kacha, kacha…

The bright moon above them started to crack apart, more of the moon fell from the sky, each creating a rift on the ground. It looked like as if a giant was drawing lines on the ground…

The two swords let out a repressing aura into their surroundings, the deadly blows were moving slowly into one another and causing incredible damage to the area!

When Zhong Yue’s and Demon Saint’s palms finally crashed together, the peace on the mountain top was struck away, and an appalling aura burst out in all directions!
