YM778.TV Chapter 1080 - The Battle of Three Monarchs
Although the innate gods weren’t undefeatable, their strengths were still far above ordinary cultivators of the Six Paths Reincarnation. And if there was an innate god who managed to open the seventh secret realm, they would be even stronger, perhaps even achieving invincibility across the same cultivation level!
To begin with, Mu Xiantian had fewer innate gods following him compared to the Heavenly Monarch. So to lose 36 of them in one go was a huge blow to his force.
And all of this was because of Mu Xiantian’s arrogance!
Appointing the right people to the right post was originally what Mu Xiantian was best at. Without it, Mu Xiantian may not experience any personal losses, but his followers would definitely suffer the consequences!
The victim to experience it firsthand was none other than Zhong Yue!
Each one of the light beams represented an innate god. They were soaked in the blood of either their enemies or their own. They were each holding an invitation letter as they entered the Heaven Breaching Fortress.
The stage was dead quiet. There was no one talking anymore as they were all staring at the innate gods.
Beside Zhong Yue, Hundun Yu suddenly said, “95 innate gods? This is the Sign of Nine-Five, it represents the Heavenly Monarch’s majestic might! I’ve heard the grand ancestor talking about it before. Back when Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan was enthroned, Mister Bi Luo had 95 innate gods descend from the skies to crown the Heavenly Monarch! It was from that day onwards that the God Order Era and God Order Calendar was officiated! These 95 innate gods, are they the same ones as before?”
“The innate gods that have enthroned Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan?” Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming still had a few things up his sleeves, being able to make these 95 innate gods follow his command. They may not be the strongest innate gods in Bi Luo Palace, but their strengths were definitely among the top. Together, they were fearsome force that no one would want to contend with!
But there were more than 800 innate gods in Bi Luo Palace, and Heavenly Monarch Di Ming only had 95 with him. Most of the others had gone to the other factions!
These 95 innate gods walked toward the stage and bowed toward Heavenly Monarch Di Ming. Then, 36 of them turned and walked toward Mu Xiantian, each holding a head in their hands.
When Mu Xiantian saw the heads, his face turned dark and gloomy. These heads belonged to the 36 innate gods under his command!
He had gone through much hardship to recruit these innate gods from the Bi Luo Palace, and in just one battle, they were entirely wiped out.
“Senior Martial Brother Xiantian, they aren’t dead, but defeated.”
The leading innate god said politely, “We are, after all, senior martial siblings of the Bi Luo Palace. We cannot see ourselves killing our own siblings. Thus, we’ve convinced them to surrender to the Heaven Court and work together as comrades. That way, we brothers can still be together.”
Mu Xiantian’s eyes thumped, he asked, “Their heads are here, where are their bodies?”
The innate god replied, “Back in the Heaven Court, now part of His Majesty’s forces.”
Mu Xiantian’s face darkened. He would rather see the 36 innate gods dead than to have them serve the Heavenly Monarch!
Now, with the additional 36 innate gods joining the Heaven Court, his enemy’s power had grown stronger while his own fell!
“This time, I’ve lost.”
Mu Xiantian smiled at Heavenly Monarch Di Ming, “Brilliant, Your Majesty, truly brilliant. You’ve found help from the Nine-Five, you’ve won this round.”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming replied politely, “You always win, it’s no big deal to lose once.”
Mu Xiantian laughed, “Quite true. After all, no one will be able to win all the time. The only thing that matters is to be the one that wins last. Your Majesty, it’s the General Assembly of Future Monarchs today, but the future monarchs are still just juniors. We as seniors would be taking advantage of them if we only listened to their discussions of the seventh secret realm and not share our own. Why don’t we too, go on stage and talk about our attainments in the seventh secret realm and Seven Paths Reincarnation?”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess exchanged a look and smiled, Queen Goddess said, “His Majesty and I both haven’t opened the seventh secret realm, our attainments sure aren’t as deep as Xiantian’s. But since you’ve invited us, we will not decline. His Majesty and I will both discuss our attainments with Xiantian, how’s that?”
Mu Xiantian laughed, “Two monarchs working together hand in hand? Your Majesty, Queen Goddess, you’ve both overestimated me. But that’s fine, it’s alright. Let’s get on stage and get started!”
Then, the three monarchs walked on stage, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess sat on one end and Mu Xiantian on the end.
“Thinking back, we’ve fought hard side by side and built this empire together. But now, here we are, sitting in front of the juniors in competition with one another. I can’t help but have mixed feelings.” Heavenly Monarch Di Ming said.
Mu Xiantian smiled, “Your Majesty, do not be troubled by the unnecessary feelings. To the innate gods, the postnate beings’ lifespan is nothing more than the blink of an eye. It should be Xiantian that should have mixed feelings about us. When Your Majesty and Queen Goddess are reduced to ashes in the flow of time, Xiantian will be the only one left standing before your graves.”
Queen Goddess smiled in response, “Xiantian is right. However, you may live eternally, but your subjects won’t live as long as you. They are the ones that are most pitiful.”
Mu Xiantian was insouciant, he said placidly, “Since it’s a Dao discussion that we are having now, Your Majesty, Queen Goddess, let’s stop the chatter and get into our agenda today.”
“Very well!”
The three exchanged a look and together, they shouted.
“Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao! Dao!”
Seven shouts of ‘Dao’ sounded out at the same time, but each Dao was different from the other. The seven shouts of Dao corresponded to the seven secret realms they each cultivated. The first six secret realms were still similar to one another, but when it came to the seventh Dao, the differences were as stark as night and day.
Mu Xiantian’s seventh shout of Dao from his mouth was accompanied by the melodious chants of Dao voices. But within his body, there was an even deeper chant from his seventh secret realm!
His seventh secret realm was unlike any other. From the Dao voices it made alone, it couldn’t be determined what type of secret realm it was. However, the seventh secret realm of an innate god would of course be extraordinary. Even Zhong Yue didn’t dare to say he could defeat a same cultivation level innate god who had opened the seventh secret realm!
Mu Xiantian was one such existence that Zhong Yue had no confidence in defeating!
The Dao voices coming from Mu Xiantian’s body superimposed each other into a stream of loud roars. Although the Dao voices were many, they were in perfect resonance, as if there were a unique system that synchronized them together!
“This secret realm…” Zhong Yue mulled.
From the Ancestral Court, Zhong Yue had acquired the knowledge of the many secret realms opened by the ancient monarchs. The number of secret realms the ancient monarchs had opened were countless and multifaceted. So much so that Zhong Yue hadn’t encountered any experts that had opened a secret realm that was not explored by the ancient monarchs before.
Even Yin Fanxuan’s Million Dao Secret Realm was opened before the ancient monarchs.
Yet, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s seventh secret realm exceeded the current body of knowledge of the ancient monarchs, it was an unexplored type of secret realm!
Mu Xiantian, could it be that he has two seventh secret realms?
Zhong Yue’s heart stiffened up. He thought of the seventh secret realm Mu Xiantian’s celestial true body had shown him before. The attainments in it were entirely different to whatever the demon true body was revealing now!
That meant that his celestial true body and demon true body both had a seventh secret realm of their own!
If Mu Xiantian merged his two true bodies together, wouldn’t he have eight secret realms? Was he planning to cultivate the Eight Paths Reincarnation?
If opening the seventh secret realm would already make him an undefeatable legend; then what would Mu Xiantian be if he opened the eighth secret realm?
Zhong Yue couldn’t help but shiver. It was true that Mu Xiantian’s demon true body was arrogant and lacked rationality, but he had the very capital to do so!
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s and Queen Goddess’s Dao voices were in a different form.
The Dao voices from their bodies came from many secret realms in their bodies. These secret realms contained different attainments and powers of their own.
Mu Xiantian’s Dao voices were gathered into a huge stream of raging torrents. Whereas their secret realms were opening and closing like waltzing notes.
Although the raging torrents could destroy everything on its path, the waltzing notes created a rhythmic barrier that gradually lightened and eventually diminished the unstoppable force.
The battle of the Dao voices had left the gods perplexed.
The battle between the three monarchs with the Dao voices was far too complicated and abstruse that they couldn’t even comprehend what was happening.
Only a rare few could grasp the Dao attainments in the Dao voices, they were immersed in the marvelousness of it. But these few were those that had opened the seventh secret realm.
Only by opening the seventh secret realm could one comprehend the attainments contained in the Dao voices.
Furthermore, the three monarchs were elucidating their attainments of the seventh secret realm with their monarch level mentality. Their attainments were far more abstruse and intricate than the others, it was impossible for the gods to understand!
Zhong Yue listened carefully to the three monarchs’ Dao voices. He ignored the silent battle that was happening in the midst of the Dao voices and only focused on the attainments as he referenced the monarchs’ comprehensions to his own seventh secret realm.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess sure are magnificent! Although they haven’t opened the seventh secret realm, they had opened many secret realms of the same type in their bodies! As long as they are able to connect and merge these secret realms together into one body, they would achieve the seventh secret realm!
It wasn’t easy to open the seventh secret realm while Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess were monarch-level cultivators, them opening the seventh secret realm would naturally face greater risks!
In this era now, there wasn’t much else that could help them mitigate the risks of opening the seventh secret realm. A slight moment of inattention could lead to the complete destruction of their Yuan Shen and mortal body!
Thus, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess didn’t dare to open the seventh secret realm. They could only further solidify their foundations until they had the confidence to succeed before in opening it!
With enough comprehensions in the seventh secret realm, the risk of opening the seventh secret realm would naturally be smaller.
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and Queen Goddess were two old foxes. They are trying to make use of Mu Xiantian to help them open the seventh secret realm!
Quickly, Zhong Yue realized the two monarchs’ intentions. Mu Xiantian was Dark Monarch’s disciple and Dark Monarch’s research into the seventh secret realm was almost unparalleled in the universe. Thus, the couple was using this Dao discussion as an excuse so they could find a safer way to open the seventh secret realm from the attainments in Mu Xiantian’s Dao voices!
