Rise of Humanity

Mo Yin cast out the Deity Overlord Saint Board. There, Zhu Xie’s name was ranked tenth. Other than himself, the other nine of the top ten were all Deity Overlords.

He was just a True Deity but had already entered the Deity Overlord Saint Board, even coming as one of the top tens. It was already an incredible achievement, but Zhu Xie was still challenging the board. He was trying to fight for first place!

Those that were on the Saint Board were all experts on the pinnacles of their respective cultivation levels. Even being able to enter the Saint Board meant these had have the potential of becoming monarchs!

Thus, it was already an incredible achievement to even be on the board, let alone skipping one’s cultivation level to challenge the higher board!

A True Deity making it into the top ten of the Deity Overlord Saint Board had already shaken the universe. A heavy weight fell upon the hearts of those watching as they were witnessing the rise of a young monarch.

“Zhuxiang Clan, Xiang Xinling!”

Zhu Xie looked up to the Saint Board and called, roll calling the board’s rank nine Xiang Xinling’s name, he said placidly, “Let us begin.”

Xiang Xinling’s face was solemn as he slowly stood up. Beside him, the Zhuxiang Clan’s second head quickly held Xiang Xinling’s shoulders, trying to stop him from accepting the challenge.

Xiang Xinling returned a smile, “If I back down from a challenge, how can I ever catch up to our ancestor’s footsteps? Zugong, did ancestor back down once when faced with a challenge?”

Xiang Zugong released his hand, he answered solemnly, “The Zhuxiang Clan’s ancestor had never backed down! His potential was weak and his talent was only common. In all his life, he had been through more than 800,000 fights. And he lost more often than won, but he never once backed down! Through these countless defeats, he eventually rose to become a monarch, carving his legend in history!”

Xiang Xinling raised his voice, strode forth and asked, “Ancestor had never turned away from a fight, so how can I back down?”

Xiang Zungong stood up abruptly, he could feel the blood gushing up his head and he raised his cup while shouting, “Elder Brother Xinling, what is there is be afraid of an innate evil god?”

Xiang Xinling drank a toast and laughed, he threw the cup to the floor and shouted, “Zhu Xie, come!”

His dominating aura has reached to its peak, at this moment, it couldn’t wait any second more to unleash its power!

He lunged onto Zhu Xie. The burning aura granted him 20% more power to wield than usual. The six light wheels were revolving rapidly as the Zhuxiang Clan’s monarch cultivation arts and techniques were showcased perfectly in the battle.

Xiang Zugong’s eyes brightened up like bulbs and he laughed happily, “Excellent! Xinling will surely be able to become our Zhuxiang Clan’s next monar…”

But before his sentence was finished, Xiang Xinling was crushed to bits by Zhu Xie’s 33 Layer Heavens!

Zhu Xie opened his mouth wide and swallowed Xiang Xinling away, his long tongue licked the corner of his mouth. He looked up at the board and called again, “Getian Clan, Ge Tianshu.”

Zhu Zugong roared, he stood up in intense killing intent. But at this moment, Ghost Master Gui Youming’s voice said, “Zugong, this is a fair fight. In front of His Majesty, are you trying to revolt?”

Xiang Zugong did his utmost to restrain himself before sitting violently.

Xiang Zungong’s eyes were still empty. He couldn’t yet comprehend his brother’s death, eaten by Zhu Xie.

“Getian Clan, Ge Tianshu.”

Zhu Xie called again and said placidly, “Come.”

Ge Tianshu’s eyelids thumped rapidly. As the eighth rank, it was naturally his turn after Xiang Xinling’s death.

He was a Deity Overlord and Getian Clan’s greatest talent. All this time, he had stood above his peers, he had been through countless battles to earn his place and name. But now, he was faced with an enormous challenge.

On the side, Ge Yishu said in a quivering voice, “Brother Tianshu, don’t accept it. He is the innate evil god, it’s not a shame to step aside…”

The Getian Clan’s messenger was also terrified, he said in a deep voice, “Tianshu, don’t. He won’t force you to accept the challenge! Take a step back…”

Ge Tianshu’s eyelids jumped again, then he said, “I’ve fought with Xiang Xinling no less than a hundred times and have always come out on top. He didn’t concede defeat, no matter how many times I’ve defeated him, and he still wouldn’t accept being the weaker one. This idiot, every time he saw some improvement in his strength, he would challenge me only to end up the same way every time.”

“Xiang Xinling, the one I’ve always defeated. Even he dares to accept the challenge, and I am stronger than him. So how can I be the one who backs down?”

He stood up, turned around and smiled, “My little brother Yishu, we of the Getian Clan are no cowards.”

Ge Tianshu walked out, the six light wheels behind his head were revolving rapidly and the fabricated monarch weapon emerged behind him. He said loudly, “Zhu Xie, come!”

Ge Yishu shouted, “Brother Tianshu, bring his head to me!”

Terrifying aura burst out and Zhu Xie roared. He stood above the 33 Layers Heavens and pounced down like a flash of lightning. Flashing through the 33 Layers Heavens in 33 steps, and finally clashed down with Ge Tianshu!

Kacha–

A soft crack could be heard and cracks like web could be seen on the surface of the fabricated monarch weapon before it crumbled away.

Blood gushed out of Ge Tianshu’s seven apertures, he was moving backward to soften the impact force but Zhu Xie was faster.

Zhu Xie flashed to Ge Tianshu’s front, reaching his hand out for Ge Tianshu’s neck and heavily twisted the latter’s head down.

Ge Tianshu cried out in pain, his Yuan Shen was also beheaded, and he died on the spot.

Zhu Xie opened his mouth wide and swallowed both Ge Tianshu’s mortal body and Yuan Shen’s heads. Moments later, he spurts out Ge Tianshu’s skull and let it roll to Ge Yishu’s legs.

Ge Yishu let out an agonizing scream, he flipped the table in front of him and nearly rushed out but the Getian Clan’s messenger was quicker in pinning Ge Yishu down with both arms.

Zhu Xie ignored Ge Yishu, he looked up and continued calling, “Luli Cla, Lu Binger.”

Immediately, all the guests and messengers from the races frowned. Imperial Emperor Xian Tian slightly leaned over and said, “Your Majesty, Zhu Xie is a little too brutal, don’t you think so?”

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming didn’t answer while King Shen Wuwei smiled, “Imperial Emperor, it’s a battle, sure there are times where the contestants are unable to hold back too much. It’s only natural that the weaklings die unfortunately in the battles.”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian frowned, “King Wuwei, defeating the opponent is understandable. But to eat them as well, it’s too much.”

King Shen Wuwei couldn’t answer. It was Heavenly Monarch’s birthday ceremony but Zhu Xie had already killed and eaten all his opponents. It was truly too much. Moreover, to die by his hands would mean that they wouldn’t even have the chance to reincarnate.

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming smiled, “Xian Tian, you do not know before. But Zhu Xie cultivates under that existence. He has cultivated the [Evil Tome]. To feast before the true battle, only then can he fully unleash his power.”

Innate Evil Monarch’s [Evil Tome]?

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s eyelids thumped and he quickly contacted Zhong Yue his psyche and said, “Zhu Xie’s [Thirty-three Layers Great Solar Heavens Scripture] is just a cover, the real cultivation art he cultivates is the Innate Evil Monarch’s [Evil Tome]. This is an evil art, Mister must never fight him!”

Zhong Yue remained calm, only nodding softly at Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was relieved and he thought, Mister Yi has always been smart, he knows exactly what to do at different time. When Zhu Xie challenges him, he will surely avoid the battle .

Meanwhile, Zhu Xie was still calling, “Luli Clan, Lu Binger. Shall we?”

Lu Binger was now already a Deity Overlord, when Zhu Xie called her name twice, she didn’t move a single inch at all. Beside her, Lu Wang was extremely nervous, he quickly held tightly onto his sister’s hand.

Then, Lu Binge smiled, “Little Brother Wang, don’t worry. Senior Martial Brother Zhu Xie, I am no match to you, I’ll pass this battle.”

Zhu Xie didn’t mind, he raised his head again to look at the board and called, “Juling Clan, Tian Fengzi. Come.”

Beside Ling Zheng, Tian Fengzi slowly rose and Ling Zheng was agitated, he quickly said, “No! Even Lu Binger didn’t go!”

Tian Fengzi said coldly, “I’m not a pussy! I will fight…”

Tian Xuanzi’s crawled out from the bottom of the table and shouted, “Tian Feng, fight your ass! You aren’t even as talented as Laozi ¹ , Laozi is far more talented than you, but even Laozi will die…”

“You dare call yourself Laozi in front of your elder cousin brother?” Tian Fengzi was enraged, he dragged Tian Xuanzi out from the bottom of the table and started slapping and hitting while saying, “Laozi will kill you!”

Ling Zheng stepped forward and slammed both of them down while also punching and kicking them, he was scolding, “Two brats and you all call yourselves Laozi in front of me? Laozi will let you two see what I am capable of so you won’t dare to go against my words…”

Moments later, Tian Xuanzi and Tian Fengzi were both left ravaged on the floor. There were wounds and blue blacks all across their bodies. But Tian Fengzi still wanted to accept the challenge and started moving out. Immediately, Tian Xuanzi jumped on Tian Fengzi’s back and pinned the former down hard. To which, Ling Zheng battered the two once more.

All the others around were frowning, even Zhu Xie. Then, Zhu Xie disregarded them and continued calling, “Jintu Clan, Jin Taibai.”

“Nope.” Jinti Clan’s Jin Taibai was smiling as he explained, “My stomach isn’t feeling well now and I’ve diarrhea, I think I ate something bad. I am afraid that Brother Zhu Xie will feel uneasy too to eat me now. So, I don’t think we should fight.”

Zhu Xie’s face got dark for a second, and he continued, “Wuhuai Clan, Wuhuai Zishan.”

Wuhuai Zishan was a lady donned in purple dress, she chuckled and said, “Forgive me, Brother Zhu Xie, I also ate something wrong…”

Jin Taibai’s eyes brightened up, he laughed, “Senior Martial Sister Zishan is also having diarrhea?”

Wuhuai Zishan was angered, she sneered frigidly, “Taibai, do you want to fight?”

Jin Taibai acted like a mucker, “Come then, I love most of your little, soft, puffy and cute hands.”

Zhu Xie’s face darkened, he sneered coldly and criticized, “Get a room.”

“Nope!” The two answered together.

Zhu Xie’s evil aura suddenly burst out and he said coldly, “After the ceremony, the two of you stay back then. Next! Dating Clan, Ting Shunfang.”

Ting Shunfang was also a lady, she snickered, “After the ceremony, I will stay too.”

Zhu Xie was caught off guard. There were only two left on the Deity Overlord Saint Board but he hadn’t fed full yet in the feast, the [Evil Tome]’s power wouldn’t be able to unleash its full potential.

“Hexu Clan’s He Zhengfeng.”

“No thanks you,” He Zhengfeng yawned and answered insouciantly.

Zhu Xie frowned, just as he was to call out the last name on the board, Bo Qingyun of the Bohuang Clan waved his hand and said, “After the ceremony, I’ll stay too.”

Zhu Xie sneered coldly and looked up to the Heavenly Monarch. The Heavenly Monarch looked at King Shen Wuwei and the latter stood up and said solemnly, “Left Brigadier, step forth, you and your men!”

A Deity Overlord then led a thousand cavalry out, he bowed and asked, “King Weiwu, your orders!?”

Zhu Xie opened his mouth wide and swallowed the whole Left Brigade down. There were sounds of thunder rumbling in his stomach and he burped loudly. The evil aura in him was heightened to a new level and he turned his head to Zhong Yue while laughing happily, “King Yi, where is the Future Monarchs Board? Where is the Heavenly Deity Altar?”

Zhong Yue looked toward Ti Mobei, his face placid as he asked, “Brother Mobei?”

Ti Mobei clapped his hands and more than a dozen Deity Emperors could be seen carrying a huge altar on their shoulders.

Krong— 

When the altar was placed on the ground, all of the buildings quaked heavily.

“The altar is here,” Zhong Yue stood up and walked onto the Heavenly Deity Altar. He hung a huge board up in mid-air and said placidly, “The Future Monarchs Board is here. Come up, I’ll tell you where you are ranked in the board.”
