Chapter 647 - Ancient Land of the G.o.ds Grave
At the side of the ship, Bai Canghai couldn"t sit still and began pacing. Just like most men, when he saw the alluring Concubine Han who was leaning against the rail, looking extremely lonely and vulnerable, he approached her and started talking to her.
Beside Concubine Han were two members from the Heavenly Horse Celestial Race, but they acted like that they did not see that little brat disturbing Concubine Han at all.
“They said there are no good people in Prison Realm but I believe you are not as bad as they say.” Bai Canghai said suddenly.
Concubine Han who did not talk at all seemed like she was deeply moved by Bai Canghai"s words. She suddenly turned around and looked into Bai Canghai"s eyes with her eyes that seemed to be able to look into one"s soul.
As soon as their eyes met, Bai Canghai felt incredibly moved. He even ventured to guess that her eyes were even stronger than Zhong Yue"s.
“Really?” The lady asked, her voice seemed to tremble, and this caused Bai Canghai"s heart to undergo turmoil.
“Of course!” Bai Canghai shouted.
He then said loudly, “They said you are evil, said that you have committed crimes beyond redemption, and that you are the most sinister woman, which was why you were banished by the Realm Monarch! But I know that you have been framed! How could an innocent and pure lady like you win against those merciless and vicious women in the palace! Don"t worry, I will protect you with my life in this compet.i.tion!”
Seemingly struck by his words, Concubine Han murmured softly, “Thank you….”
Touched and deeply affected by her, Bai Canghai wanted to say something more, but this was when Zhong Yue interrupted, “Brother Bai, we have arrived, we need to get down now.”
Unwilling to leave her, Bai Canghai turned around and looked longingly back at the lady as he walked away.
“How did you start talking with Concubine Han?” asked Zhong Yue softly as he frowned.
“She"s not a bad person, she"s innocent!” replied Bai Canghai.
“I felt that she is someone very unique and this might be love at first sight….”
“Love at first sight?”
Zhong Yue had a weird expression and said, “She"s the concubine of the Realm Monarch, I"d advise you not to have anything to do with her. You"d be dead for sure if you entangle yourself with her.”
Upon hearing Zhong Yue"s cold words, Bai Canghai laughed sarcastically and argued back, “I never thought you were someone so stupid, Brother Zhong. Our love is true! Whatever race or position we have does not matter when it comes to true love!”
Zhong Yue was left speechless and he said, “It"s not that easy, and you"ve failed to see the demon inside Concubine Han. She is not as good as you think. Did you know why she was banished? You actually deemed her innocent after having only such a short conversation?”
The persistent Bai Canghai continued to fight for Concubine Han"s honor and he said, “The Realm Monarch has so many wives and how could someone like her manage to beat the other old hags? She was definitely framed by them!”
Zhong Yue burst out laughing and he said, “Who do you think the Realm Monarch is? He is the one that rules the entire Six Path World and the strongest existence in this world. What kind of woman can actually cause so much harm just to benefit herself under the eyes of Realm Monarch? I once heard from a few G.o.ds talking about the sin committed by Concubine Han and did you know what she did? She killed the son of Realm Monarch with poison and so, she was banished into Prison Realm.”
He then added, “They said that that murdered son was the unborn son of Concubine Luo and the Realm Monarch. As one of Concubine Han"s major rivals, the child was murdered before he could even open his eyes to see the world. After the matter was found out, the Realm Monarch didn"t kill her because he appreciated the time he spent with her, thus, he only banished her. As such, she is not as simple as you thought.”
Dumbfounded by the news, Bai Canghai was stunned for a moment and at the same time, Concubine Han"s voice was heard speaking gently, “Human, why did you spoil my plans? I just wanted to play with him, are you not afraid of my power?”
Immediately, Bai Canghai shivered and Zhong Yue replied, “I have never killed a concubine of a Realm Monarch… If you infuriate me, I really wouldn"t mind to kill you.”
Concubine Han looked at Zhong Yue for a while and smiled, but she thought with a heavy heart, This is an ruthless man!
Dong—-
The ship touched the ground, causing a slight tremble on the ground. After it stopped completely, Emerald Heaven Dharma KIng said, “Ladies and gentlemen, please follow me to see the Realm Lord of the Prison Realm.”
Everyone then got down the ship and they noticed that the place where the ship landed was an area made up of entirely spiritual energy condensed into liquid. It was located at the center of the courtyard and looked just like a lake in the courtyard. There were countless ships that landed here while countless partic.i.p.ants were alighting to the ground.
Floating on the water were gigantic jade-colored dragons; they exposed their back out of the water, forming white jade bridges that allowed everyone to cross the water before sinking back into the water again.
Stunning, thought Zhong Yue.
And Xin Huo had been keeping quiet all the while as he fused with the sunfire in Zhong Yue"s body. There were countless strong Qi Pract.i.tioners in this place and if Xin Huo did not hide himself, these Qi Pract.i.tioners might be able to notice that there is a strange flame hiding inside Zhong Yue"s body.
When he got to the Prison Realm, Xin Huo was very curious of everything; back in his days, there were no Six Path Worlds, no Six Path Reincarnation and not even h.e.l.l, not to mention the Book of Life and Death.
During his slumber, the world had changed so drastically that this little flame almost couldn"t recognize anything anymore. Thus, he had been absorbing these sudden changes and recently, he rarely show himself to guide Zhong Yue nor did he keep trying to convince Zhong Yue to impregnate ladies. Zhong Yue even began to miss the days where Xin Huo was still being obnoxious.
There were so many partic.i.p.ants and when Zhong Yue looked around, he realized that each and everyone of them looked very powerful; none of them were any weaker than the Reverse Emperor and the other prodigies of the Left Fang Galaxy!
In the Left Fang Galaxy, the Reverse Emperor, Li Tianxing, Bi and An and the others... they were all strong individuals that were on par with Zhong Yue!
But now, there were so many of them right here!
Just thinking off this was already horrifying!
And this is only the weakest among the other Six Path Worlds and the weakest realm of the weakest Six Path World!
What was even more scary was that in the other 2998 Six Path Worlds, there are six realms in each of them, and there are bound to be even more strong Qi Pract.i.tioners like them!
The compet.i.tion there would be even fiercer!
Compared to them, the Ancestral Star and Kun Lun were basically some rural village!
By now, Zhong Yue could feel the weight on his shoulders get increasingly heavy, and the stress of Jun Sixie, Qiu Jin"er and the others were even stronger. Their strength was still not on the same level as Zhong Yue"s and in this battle, they risked death!
Whereas for Bai Canghai, he had already given up completely and no longer paid attention to how things are progressing now.
As various thoughts ran wildly through Zhong Yue"s mind, everyone gradually entered the courtyard.
On top of the courtyard was a huge platform floating in the air, and on top of this platform were countless altars. These altars illuminated brightly and ]acted as the seats for the G.o.ds.
Right under the platform was a huge plaza and the countless Qi Pract.i.tioners gathered at the plaza.
Suddenly, the dharma king of the different galaxies ascended into the sky and landed on their respective seats and as they sat, they created unique supernatural phenomena.
“The Realm Lord has arrived!”
Golden armored giants beat the drums as an officer shouted while a burly man showed up being surrounded by many officers. He sat on the throne at the centre of the platform.
As this burly man sat down, a G.o.dly aura spread across the surroundings, the heaven and earth shook and the dimension twisted.
All in a sudden, when the Qi Pract.i.tioners at the plaza looked at this man, they felt that they were so puny and there were six light wheels that emitted powerful auras behind his head.
And those dharma kings, G.o.dly officers and generals were also so strong to an extent some could only dream of but in front of this burly man, they too appeared to be very tiny.
From small to big, these dharma kings, officers, and generals appeared in different sizes; those with higher cultivation level were bigger and those with lower cultivation level were at least a few hundred feet tall.
This burly man sitting at the throne in the centre was the current Prison Realm"s Realm Lord, one of the six Realm Lords in this Six Path World!
After he sat on his throne, the Realm Lord announced, “Heavenly King Shang will be here shortly to join us, please hold for a moment.”
As he made his announcement, music sounded from the skies and when Zhong Yue looked above, the skies split apart and heavenly generals carrying various divine weapons descended.
At first look, they appeared to be small but as they gotten closer, they too, appeared to be incredibly huge in size.
These newly arrived heavenly generals emitted outstanding and marvelous aura, each had six light wheels behind their head and they scattered and shouted, “Hail my lord!”
Hong long—-
The courtyard everyone gathered in trembled and a gigantic shadow squeezed out from a cracked dimension. It was a huge altar that was far larger than the altars of the other kings.
Then, this altar flew towards the Realm Lord and it stopped right beside the altar of the Realm Lord.
Suddenly, light came out from nowhere and the divine light lit up the skies before they landed on that new altar.
After the light dispersed, a G.o.d with a small paG.o.da in his hand appeared on the altar.
“Heavenly King Shang.” The Realm Lord greeted.
The newly arrived G.o.d nodded back and greeted back, “Realm Lord.”
Seeing this, the officer under the command of Realm Lord seeked his permission before he announced, “Heavenly King Shang is here. Let us begin!”
The officer"s voice spread across the courtyard, “There are 78,023 partic.i.p.ants this time. Among you are 920 True Spirit level Qi Pract.i.tioners and 77,103 Imminent Deity level Qi Pract.i.tioners. In this battle, the top ten will be selected as candidates to represent the Prison Realm.”
“This battle will take place in the ancient forbidden land in the Prison Realm, the Ancient Land of the G.o.ds Grave. Now, the rules!”
“Rule number one, each partic.i.p.ant has their own respective star token. With every kill, a star will be added into your token, and at the end of the battle, those with the most stars will be the winner.”
“Rule number two, all partic.i.p.ants are allowed to use any means and ways to survive in Ancient Land of the G.o.ds Grave for a month. Once the time is up, you will all be guided out from the Ancient Land of the G.o.ds Grave.”
“Rule number three, there will only be ten winners and after the ten winners are decided, then it will be every man for themselves for the rest.”
Right away, the place erupted in an uproar; the Qi Pract.i.tioners in the plaza immediately began fervid discussion with one another, asking about the Ancient Land of the G.o.ds Grave. Though they were also the people of Prison Realm, most of them knew nothing about this Ancient Land of the G.o.ds Grave!
“Rumours said that this is a remnant land from the Earth Order Era,” said Bin suddenly, “They said it"s a place built to conduct experiments by the ruler of that era.”
“What kind of experiments?” asked Zhen Yao immediately.
After exchanging glances, Bi and An suddenly said, “A place to experiment on the Six Paths of Reincarnation.”
