Rise of Humanity

Chapter 600 - The Great Ritual of Sealing Abdication

When the dragon horde passed by the Great Wilderness, an altar worshipped continually by the dragons was pulled to the top of Swords Gate Mountain; deep voices of worship rumbled within the clouds, it was the unique call of the dragon race.

Then, Lord Dragon soared out from the altar and descended on Swords Gate Mountain.

“Zhong Yue greets Lord Dragon.” Zhong Yue welcomed the dragon godly spirit while handing over an incense stick, “When Lord Dragon arrives at the West Barren snowy mountains, light up the incense stick and the passage to Kun Lun will appear before you. There, the Kun Lun experts will welcome and receive the dragon race. The Bai Zhe Clan, and a few demon races are on their way to the snowy mountains as well, may Lord Dragon take good care of them for me.”

Lord Dragon kept the incense stick, flew back into the altar while conducting sounds directly to Zhong Yue, “I have news on Lord Kun and Lord Demon. Rest assured, I will return to help once everything has been taken care of!”

Soon after Lord Dragon left, Bo Xun, with the demon ladies in tow, arrived in a flying demon keep. The ladies were well-dressed, and the demon keep was adorned with beautiful ornaments as though they were out for a leisurely picnic.

The demon keep was the Desire Realm forged by Mister Bo Xun, and the occupants were all ladies, except for himself.

Tian Mo Concubine and the others were standing on the keep wall, they waved their hands jubilantly at Zhong Yue; while the young man replied them with a smile, he waved his hand and watched as they drift further.

“Darling, I will make many babies for you in the Kun Lun Realm!” Tian Mo Concubine placed her hands beside her mouth to amplify her voice as she shouted at him.

Immediately, Zhong Yue’s face stiffened up, and his legs wobbled, and he nearly fell from the mountain top.

On the other side, Jun Sixie heard it as well, and she looked at him curiously.

Then, to add on the shames on him, the blurred Xin Huo leaped out and shouted, “Mister Zhong, did you lose control over your body again? What a brat! The last time was a useless White Tiger, now a keep of demon ladies! It should’ve been good, very good in fact, but why did you do it with your incarnation? The bloodline power in your incarnation is so faint that he won’t even produce any good offspring! I let you off with the White Tiger incident, but now you go ahead and do this again? You… you… Can you actually do something that is useful?”

Zhong Yue’s face blushed red, and he murmured, “I didn’t do anything, it’s nothing much… Tian Mo Concubine is talking nonsense!”

“An exuberant young man surrounded with beautiful demon ladies, you dare to tell me you didn’t do anything? Not even once?” the little flame turned dark, and doubted.

Then, Zhong Yue saw Jun Sixie walking over from the corner of his eyes, he rapidly tucked the chattering little flame back into his psyche ocean. He calmed himself and said, “Senior martial sister, I’ll be hosting a world shattering incident, and I will leave the Ancestral Star after that. I need you to summon all the Qi Practitioners back into Swords Gate, and lock down the whole mountain. Swords Gate will remain full alertness until I return safely.”

Jun Sixie was initially here to ask about Tian Mo Concubine, but his words caught her surprise, and she exclaimed in shock, “What are you planning to do? Is it even more serious than provoking the gods?”

“Far more serious.” Zhong Yue said solemnly, “But only a few of the gods and godly spirits could see through my plans. As for the other experts, they are too trivial to even matter at all. Senior martial sister, I just need you to stay on guard and protect Swords Gate, that’s all you and the others are required to do.”

Jun Sixie’s heart palpitated heavily and her throat dehydrated. Never once Zhong Yue had spoken so firmly, he must truly be up to something big!

“Junior martial brother, tell me, what are you going to do?” She calmed herself and asked.

“Sealing the bloodline power of every race.” Zhong Yue answered placidly.

“Sealing the bloodline…?” Jun Sixie startled, she mumbled to herself and seconds later, her body shivered in shock. The more she thought about it, the greater the waves in her heart grew.

Zhong Yue continued in the same placid voice, “I can never leave in peace if our enemies are not taken care of. Even with the help of cultivation, the humans are still weak too compete with the other races, especially once cultivation ends in the future. Senior martial sister, Junior Martial Sister Jin’er has returned, it’s for me to go now!”

As he finished talking, the teleportation portal in the Golden Summit shone brightly, and Qiu Jin’er emerged out from the blinding lights. She saw the two of them and jogged over happily, “Senior martial brother!”

Her cultivation progress was indeed increidlbe, she was even a step faster than Zhong Yue in reaching the Imminent Deity level, suggesting that her time on the Celestial Wood Star wasn’t just boring and repetitive cultivation.

Surely enough, Qiu Jin’er was welcomed by the godly palace of an Innate Wood Spirit Body god in the moon of the Celestial Wood Star. There, she had learned and gained many insights left behind by the Innate Wood Spirit Body god.

Not only that, but this Wood Innate Spirit Body god was also one of the three hidden gods that were listed in the Legendary Board!

With the help of the insights left behind by this unnamed god, Qiu Jin’er’s cultivation progress was incredibly fast, and her foundation was also sturdier than ever!

Zhong Yue heaved a breath, saying, “You have returned just in time, I am planning to do a ritual before I leave, and I don’t know when I will return.”

Qiu Jin’er was stunned by the sudden news. Then, she suddenly held his hands, and smiled brightly back at him, “Senior martial brother, I will be there with you wherever you go.”

Zhong Yue was startled as well, feeling the warmth from her little hands touch his soul and.

Jun Sixie’s heart throbbed bitterly at the scene, she suddenly realized what she was lacking compared to Qiu Jin’er, When Junior Martial Brother Zhong told me he is leaving, I didn’t ask to go with him, but when will he return. Perhaps, this is what I am lacking than Junior Martial Sister Qiu Jin’er, I can’t follow him at the cost of everything…

Then, Zhong Yue brought Gongsun Xuanyuan along, and they left for the Xian Kong Saint City, a ritual that would bring thousands of years of peace to the human race was about to happen!

……

East Barren, Xian Kong Saint City.

The saint city was now devoid of living beings as Shi Buyi had evacuated the monsters out of the city, even the lord’s manor had been relcoated. Now, the whole Black Mountain was engraved with the totem patterns of the Great Ritual of Sealing Abdication, essentially turning it into a giant altar.

Zhong Yue brought Xuan Yuan along and landed at the mountain foot. From there, they climbed the mountain by feet, stopping from time to time as Zhong Yue inspected on the totem patterns carved on the mountain body.

He walked around the mountain, checking the totem patterns inch by inch; he stopped the flow of the streams, walked on the mountain walls, and dove into the caves to check the totem patterns everywhere across the place.

Along the way, Zhong Yue had patiently explained the abstrusities within the totem patterns to the young Xuan Yuan. It took a full month for him to finish.

In the end, young Xuan Yuan was bombarded with all sorts of knowledge, both in width and depth.

Xuan Yuan was now fourteen years old. He had cultivated into the realms of Qi Practitioners, and his talents had finally started to bloom. But even so, the knowledge imparted to him was far beyond him his current realm; it was too difficult for him to understand them all now.

“Uncle Zhong, what use do these totem patterns have? Why are you telling me all this?” The young man asked.

“Totem patterns consolidate into the Great Ritual of Sealing Abdication, a grand ceremony of sacrificing offerings to the heaven and earth.” Zhong Yue replied with a warm smile, “When you have conquered the Ancestral Star, you will have to carry out the ritual again in this place. Not only that, but your successors, and the future human leaders will have to host the ritual every thousands of years, only then, the glorious light will always shine upon the human race.”

Puzzled, the young Xuan Yuan couldn’t understand anything.

All of a sudden, Zhong Yue turned solemn, he said sternly, “Swear that you will do it!”

The young Xuan Yuan quickly straightened his stature, and swore to it, vowing that the ritual would be passed down to the future generations.

From that moment onward, the leaders of the human race would continue to host the ritual during their appointments.

However, when it reached to the reign of the Emperor of Qin, the Divine Tree of Knowledge’s effect had already grown strong enough to stop the birth of future Qi Practitioners. Although the Emperor of Qin had awoken part of the Ancestral Dragon’s blood in his body, the lack of offerings for the ritual had imposed a great toll on his life, eventually leading him to pass away early at the age of fifty.

Hence, the need for the ritual had disappeared. After all, the other races have already devolved, and assimilated into different races of the human species.

Zhong Yue smiled, he nodded and brought young Xuan Yuan to the mountain summit.

There, Shi Buyi was already awaiting for him. The lion was puzzled when he saw them, but never asked why Zhong Yue brought someone else along.

Shi Buyi looked at Zhong Yue and hesitated for a few seconds before asking, “Master Zhong, can you tell me what will happen to the monster race after the ritual?”

He was perturbed, but if the ritual would seal the monster race along, then he would do anything to stop it!

Although Shi Buyi was selfish, he was still a monster, he couldn’t have allowed his own race to be annihilated in front of his eyes.

“Don’t worry, both the monsters and humans only have ordinary blood flowing in them, they won’t be sealed.”

Zhong Yue smiled, “It will be a fair competition, do you think the monster race can’t compete with the human race?”

Shi Buyi was relaxed, and laughed loudly, “The monsters will lose to the humans? What a joke! The human race has only one Zhong Yue in over thousands of years, but the monster race had innumerable talents in every generation! In the future, the human race will go extinct as the monsters devour each and everyone of them, do you not think so?”
