Rise Of Humanity Chapter 435 - Only Half

Chapter 435 - Only Half

On the Nacre Lake Golden Stage, the G.o.ds of Kun Lun had gathered to present their gifts to the Western Mother, congratulating her on her 10,000th birthday. The atmosphere was warm and lively.

Suddenly, the sounds of quarrelling could be heard coming from the Nacre Lake Cloud Stage below, a golden-armored G.o.d summoned a G.o.d chiliarch, he asked, "What is going on down there? Do they not know how to behave themselves in the heavenly palace?"

"Sir, it is the eight little Golden Hou of Tian Wu G.o.d. They have offended many disciples and are now surrounded."

The G.o.d chiliarch smiled and answered, "These little ones are some really good troublemakers. Tian Wu G.o.d is a bright young star among the G.o.ds, but because of them, he already has so many enemies."

“Ah, so it's those eight little troublemakers."

On the side, a G.o.d with a ponytail hair and a few hairs of long beard heard them. He was the Ma w.a.n.g G.o.d, "Those eight troublemakers had beaten up my disciple. It's a good lesson for them to be beaten once, at least they deserve it."

The G.o.d chiliarch then answered, "But a young Qi Pract.i.tioner stood up for them. He is now confronting the disciples of Ma w.a.n.g, Niu, Yu Shen, Liang Yu, and the other G.o.ds. He said that he will bear the responsibility for whatever the eight Golden Hous have done."

The G.o.ds on the golden platform interests were then piqued. They all looked down and saw Zhong Yue standing against the G.o.ds' disciples. One of them laughed and said, "Who's that? What a brave young man, for him to dare to help them. Where does he come from, is he not afraid of death?"

Yu Shen G.o.d then said placidly, "Those eight little ones have made enemies of too many experts that not even Tian Wu G.o.d alone can bear it. What makes this boy think he can?"

Jin Wu G.o.d then laughed, "Ma w.a.n.g's disciple, Ma Zhengfeng, has acquired Ma w.a.n.g's true heritage, while the other experts were not weak either. Just who does this young Qi Pract.i.tioner thinks he is? To challenge so many disciples? Is he the disciple of someone else here?"

The G.o.ds then shook their heads and responded, “Never seen him before.”

Jin Wu G.o.d then mulled and said, "Judging from his Monster G.o.d Ming King's form, he is most probably a monster Qi Pract.i.tioner. Today is a day of celebration, it's fine for the little ones to play around, it will add some festivities to the day. However, there must be no casualties, at least, not today."

The other G.o.ds laughed and nodded, “Of course. Any single one of us can easily save him.”

On the Nacre Lake Cloud Stage, Zhong Yue was tingling with excitement. Ever since his arrival in Kun Lun, having met with so many G.o.ds and seeing a cultivation civilization that was far more developed than the one on the Ancestral Star, he couldn't help but have the desire to battle!

In the Ancestral Star, Zhong Yue had already reached the peak among his peers. Other than Bi Xue who he had yet to fight, no one else could compete with him.

It was too much to say that he was feeling bored due to his invincibility, but he was aware of one fact — without compet.i.tion, it would be impossible to improve. After all, if he wanted to fully explore the limits of Heavenly Dharma before he moved to the next cultivation level, it was only possible through the insights that a battle could provide!

And such fights must be against those in the same cultivation level as battling with the senior cultivators such as Peng Qianqiu and Peng Jinyi would not help him in exploring the Heavenly Dharma level. This was because the stronger cultivators in a higher level wouldn't suppress their powers to the same level as him when they fought.

In the Awakening and Atman Body level, he had way too many enemies, and that allowed him to succeed in reverse opening the five secret realms. Eventually, he was able to cultivate the sixth secret realm, an achievement that was unmatched among those at his level!

However, that couldn't be said for his Inner Core and Heavenly Dharma level, and this was because by that point, he had already left his peers far behind.

Thus, he stepped out and voluntarily took on the responsibility of the eight Golden Hous' actions. He wasn't trying to prove himself or show off; he only wanted to place himself in a situation that would pressure him to improve. He longed for a battle with the Kun Lun Qi Pract.i.tioners, he wanted to learn his own weaknesses, and he wanted to learn of his foes' strengths and claim them as his own.

And the most efficient method to do all of this was through battle!

The Kun Lun Qi Pract.i.tioners grew up in an environment with a great cultivation heritage, and there was a plentiful number of G.o.ds here. This was definitely a good place for him to open his eyes.

The horse-faced old man sneered and said, “Nameless child, do you even know how high and wide the sky and earth is!”

His body morphed and leaped behind, he turned into a horse-faced celestial being with billowing fire clouds hovering him into the sky.

The giant celestial being was stepping on the fire, and a divine eye opened on his forehead, forming a three-star eye formation on his face. He sneered coldly and said, "The Tian Si Celestial Race has three eyes, the Fire Star, the Fire Essence and Fire Sun!"

His three eyes were burning in flames, shooting out the G.o.dly rays that contained a deadly heat that could burn everything into ashes!

Zhong Yue could sense the totem patterns in the three eyes were stronger than those in the【Great Sun Heavenly Demon Art】. Clearly, this was a fire-style cultivation technique on a higher tier than the【Great Sun Heavenly Demon Art】!

This horse-face old man strength as a Heavenly Dharma cultivator was much greater than those from the Ancestral Star. Zhong Yue eyes then lit up even more in eagerness.

The Kun Lun Qi Pract.i.tioners are really strong!

Zhong Yue laughed out loud, and he moved like a flash of lightning, Now, there was only one question - how much can he bear with my attacks!

On the golden platform, the G.o.ds were looking at Ma Zhengfeng, and they all praised him. Yu Shen G.o.d said, "Mister Ma, your disciple's three eyes are nearly as strong as yours was in the early days. These three divine eyes are very versatile, able to be used offensively and defensively – it truly is a marvelous technique. It's really a rare thing for Ma Zhengfeng to be able to grasp and cultivate it to such a stage. Mister Ma has taken in a good disciple!"

Ma w.a.n.g G.o.d was proud but still maintained his facade of humility, "This disciple of mine is just a disciple with ordinary talent. But he is hardworking, willing to withstand the boredom of cultivating day and night. That is the only thing worthy of praise…"

Before he could even finish his sentence, Zhong Yue moved. With his eight arms, Zhong Yue launched a barrage of punches at Ma Zhengfeng. In just the blink of an eye, thousands of fists were thrown!

The horse-faced old man Ma Zhengfeng was still planning on taking advantage of his three eyes to attack first, but Zhong Yue had already stolen the initiative, and he was forced to go on the defensive. He formed light s.h.i.+elds in front of him with the three G.o.dly rays.

But in just an instant, Zhong Yue's attacks crushed the light s.h.i.+elds. He took another step forward and launched a heavy punch at Ma Zhengfeng. Ma Zhengfeng was struck out of consciousness, his bones were crushed and displaced out of their location, falling down like a clump of mud from the sky.

Ma w.a.n.g G.o.d's eyes thumped, and he immediately felt the embarra.s.sment filling his heart. He quickly said, "Ma Zhengfeng … his cultivation base is although strong and firm, his stubborn personality destined that he will not be quick-witted in the battles. That will place him at a disadvantage when he meets with another Qi Pract.i.tioner who is quick-witted…" Just as he finished the words, even he was finding it hard to believe.

“I've used half of my prowess.”

On the Cloud Stage, Zhong Yue slowly landed on the ground and said, "The Kun Lun Qi Pract.i.tioners, you guys are really strong…"

“Presumptuous!”

Suddenly, a Qing Si Celestial Race Qi Pract.i.tioner flew into the sky and turned into an ox-headed celestial being. Two horns pointed right at the sky, and he pounded on his chest while bellowing in rage, "Zhong Shan Clan member, aren't you just taking advantage of your mortal body to bully an old horse? I dare you to fight with me!"

His mortal body was strong, muscles bulging out everywhere and one could easily infer how physically strong he was just by looking at his body!

“My disciple.”

On the Nacre Lake Golden Stage, Niu G.o.d smiled and said to the other G.o.ds, "This is my disciple, Niu Qingshan. We Qing Si Celestial Race does not boast, but this disciple of mine is really talented. I can vaguely see myself in him. This child's strength is nearly on par with me during my old days…"

The G.o.ds praised, and it was at this moment that Zhong Yue moved again. His body morphed into a horned crimson ape, and he raised his head high, releasing a raged cry while he stomped his feet on the ground. He had turned into the Zhu Yan form, the race that possessed the greatest brute strength among all the celestial races from the West Barren!

The Qing Si Qi Pract.i.tioner, Niu Qingshan also let out a fury cry. They then rushed into one another and punched at each other. When their fists collided, it felt like the mountains had crashed together, and some weaker Qi Pract.i.tioners pa.s.sed out from the impact of the clas.h.!.+

Kcha——

Niu Qingshan's arm broke and the broken bone fragments pierced out from his arms, exposing them to the air.

Niu G.o.d was in shock. Niu Qingshan then lowered his head and thrust his ox horns at Zhong Yue's torso. Zhong Yue then quickly grabbed onto the horns, and the two wrestled in the air. All of a sudden, Niu Qingshan raised his other hand and struck at Zhong Yue's chest!

Just as Niu G.o.d was praising his disciple's actions, Zhong Yue forcibly pulled his arms back. The two ox horns were pulled down from Niu Qingshan's head, and Zhong Yue then thrust the ox horns down right at Niu Qingshan's back while he then followed up with a knee attack on Niu Qingshan's lower jaw.

Teeth flew into the air as Niu Qingshan was sent flying into the sky before falling to the ground and landing on his back. The ox horns penetrated deeper into his body and exited out of his chest while blood flowed out of it like a streaming river.

Niu G.o.d and the other disciples all quickly rushed over to tend to Niu Qingshan's injuries.

"Still 50 percent."

Zhong Yue slightly frowned in dissatisfaction, and he mumbled, "Is there not a single Kun Lun Qi Pract.i.tioner worthy for me to use my whole prowess?"

“How dare you!”

Yu Shen G.o.d's disciple flew over and turned into a human-headed, snake-bodied giant. He ferociously whipped his snake tail at Zhong Yue and sneered coldly, "Who do you think you are to look down on the Kun Lun Qi Pract.i.tioners…"

Krong——

Zhong Yue cast out the f.u.xi True Form, also human-headed and snake-bodied. His continuous attacks eventually broke the bones of the Yu Shen G.o.d's disciple, causing him to fall down from the sky like a dead snake.

“Let me teach you a lesson!”

A Yu Liang G.o.d's disciple stood up and morphed into the Rain G.o.d True Form. He collided with Zhong Yue in the air, summoning the rains and commanded the water. Zhong Yue then morphed into the Kun Peng form and sucked all of the water into his mouth. He then shot up into the sky, taking the form of a Golden Peng as he clenched on the shoulders of the Yu Liang G.o.d's disciple and crus.h.i.+ng it.

Zhong Yue then plunged down to the stage and smashed the Yu Liang G.o.d's disciple onto the floor, sending him into the abyss of unconsciousness.

The other Yu Liang G.o.d's disciples were incensed and humiliated. They shouted and cast out the Rain G.o.d True Form, launching out all their skills and soul weapons at Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue then turned into the three-legged Golden Crow and stood steadfast against the incoming attacks. A trinity of divine fires then burned around him, vaporizing all of the incoming attacks while he spread out the Golden Crow Wings. Countless golden feathers then shot out and cut the many Yu Liang G.o.d's disciples.

The horse-faced old man Ma Zhengfeng was suppressing his injuries, and he looked at his martial brothers. He furtively gestured toward them, and they all immediately rushed out toward Zhong Yue.

Meanwhile, the many disciples of the Yu Shen G.o.d had also swarmed over, casting out the Heavenly Dharma and True spirit soul weapons. As the crowd parted, the Niu G.o.d's disciples also stepped out, roaring loudly in unison before lunging over at Zhong Yue. The Cloud Stage was suddenly steeped in chaos and disorder!

Support RoH in GravityTales~~!!

On the Golden Stage, Niu G.o.d, Ma w.a.n.g G.o.d and the other G.o.ds all had gloomy expressions on their faces.

Zhong Yue flared his wings and shot up into the sky, shooting out countless golden feathers that injured the many Yu Liang G.o.d's disciples. He opened his eyes, and the Yin and Yang Qi swirled out, crus.h.i.+ng their soul weapons into pieces. At the same time, Zhong Yue pushed his hands out, launching fire Jiao Dragons at the Niu G.o.d's disciples and setting them ablaze.

He then made a clawing motion with his hand, and a fire cage formed around a Yu Shen G.o.d's disciple, effectively grounding him. He then shot his Great Boundless Sword Qi at the disciple!

Zhong Yue then turned into the Zhu Yan form and stomped on an expert's shoulder, crus.h.i.+ng the bones in that area. He quickly transitioned into the Kui Long form, drumming on his chest and forcing many surrounding experts off their balance.

He turned into the Zhong Li form and flashed out like lightning, stepping on two dragons, further injuring the experts.

But more and more Qi Pract.i.tioners continued swarming over. Seeing that, Zhong Yue surged out the six-eyed Star Toad on his back. The gigantic toad was crouching in the air with six bright moons emerging behind it. Suddenly, the toad sucked in a deep breath of air and roared, "Mang-guu————!!”

Immediately, the area within a 10-foot radius of him was cleared of Qi Pract.i.tioners. Some of the weaker ones were even blasted out from the Cloud Stage to completely disappear beyond the horizon.

Oh no, I've used up all my power!

Zhong Yue was shocked, and he quickly recollected his arcane energy. The Qi Pract.i.tioners on the Cloud Stage were all lying on the ground like crops recently ravaged by a hurricane. And only Zhong Yue was left standing on the stage in the middle.
