Chapter 501 - Ambush (1/2)

The insect planet had a bluish hue; it looked a sapphire in the dark. There were no suns around it and so the planet didn't receive solar energy.

However, on the top of the buildings and temples were many large shining jewels, giving the planet a faint glimmer.

As for the buildings, their architectural designs were different from the Ancestral Star races. The insect planet buildings were bizarre and had a unique aesthetic sense. Some were shaped like huge insects, some were like the eight-legged spiders, some were tall like wide like leaves, and there were many other bizarre shapes.

"This is the insect planet? It looks just like some exotic land," someone mumbled.

The crowd was amazed and a celestial Qi Practitioner said, "How exactly did the insect experts link their planet to our Ancestral Star?"

"So many insects!" in contrast to the celestial experts, the demons were attracted by the sheer number of insects on the insect planet.

The demon Qi Practitioners were excited as they looked over at the insect planet. The clouds above in the sky were in fact, schools of flying insects!

Tian Mo Concubine was thrilled, saying, "I want them all so much! It must be a rush to see them swarming out to bite someone!"

Zhong Yue frowned slightly as he looked at the surroundings of the planet, "Something's not right…"

"Senior martial brother, what's wrong?" Qiu Jin'er quickly asked.

Zhong Yue glanced around and said, "The last time I was here, the surroundings were different to now. Back then, there was still a sun that shone upon it from the side. But now, the sun is gone and the stars around it also look different. Weird…"

"The stars are different and the sun is gone?" Fang Jiange startled, he mumbled to himself and a second later, he said hesitantly, "Strange, really strange! This might be a lone planet wandering the universe."

Zhong Yue's heart immediately stiffened up; if it was a lone star, didn't that mean that the insects on the planet were all nomads? They devour everything wherever they went?

If they could wander the universe since the ancient days without going extinct, then the insect race's insect gods must be incredibly strong!

"Everyone, take a detour around this ice field and enter the insect planet." The demon race's demon god said indifferently, "Zhong Shan Clan member, you will lead the way."

Zhong Yue looked at the demon god and the demon god looked back at him as well. Their eyes met with one another's, and suddenly, a surge of dizziness struck at Zhong Yue. He could feel as though his heart was struck by a hammer as he started gasping for breath.

"Senior, are you the one who tried to kill me back in the demon land desert?" Zhong Yue asked.

The demon god was tranquil as usual, he answered, "Yes, it's me, so what are you going to do then? But don't worry, you've slipped away from my fingers and that has proven your capabilities. I've struck once but I won't hit twice."

Zhong Yue thanked the demon god and asked, "Then why did senior ask me to lead the way in the front?"

"Because I want you dead," the demon god sneered coldly and said, "You've used our demon's Demon God Contracted Puppet and summoned Shi Tuo to kill the eight saint clan masters. The faster you die, the happier I will be."

Zhong Yue shook his head and strode forward, he said while smiling, "But I've killed Demon Saint as well, I've saved the eight saint clans. Why didn't the eight saint clans come and thank me?"

"Presumptuous!" suddenly, Mister Bo Xun shouted, "Zhong Yue, you have crossed the line of our demon race! Demon Saint is the grand ancestor to all eight saint clans and killing him is also a humiliation to our demon race! You want us to thank you? I think you should be grateful that we didn't hunt you instead!"

"Who are you?" Zhong Yue stopped and tilted his head as he asked.

Mister Bo Xun opened his folding fan and said, "Creator of the demon sacred land Desire Realm, Mister Bo Xun. I was in closed-door training when you came to the demon race Eight Barren with the name of Mister Mo Luo. It's my biggest regret to not be able to compete against you."

"Never heard of you," Zhong Yue shook his head and continued walking forward, he said condescendingly, "You want to fight me? Then you should be prepared to meet death face to face. You are still young, just a child. There is no need for you to commit suicide just yet."

Rays flashed across Mister Bo Xun's eyes, he gave a cold sneer and strode forward alongside Zhong Yue. He smiled and said, "You and I, there will be a battle between us. I have a lot of interest in your strength, to see if you are really as they described. For now, we are meant to be cooperating so our battle will have to be put on hold. But for a start, let's see who can kill more insects, shall we?"

The two of them took a detour around the icy battlefield while the experts all followed behind them. The monster race's god walked forward to the side of the demon god and said while smiling, "Yanmo He, who is this Bo Xun? It's rare to see any younglings that dare to challenge Zhong Yue nowadays. It's a surprise to see such a brave young demon."

The demon god sneered frigidly and said, he looked at Bo Xun's back and said, "This Bo Xun is really bizarre, even I don't know of his origins. I once suspected him as the Zhong Yue in disguise, but I lacked evidence. Now, it seems like I was wrong about it."

Lang Qingyun was walking in front of them. Rays flashed across his eyes and he lowered his head while saying respectfully, "Dear great gods, maybe this Zhong Yue and Bo Xun might be the same man. I heard of a mystical art that allows one to cultivate additional incarnations, a new Yuan Shen, new inner core, a and new body."

"Is that so?" Yanmo He looked over and Lang Qingyun's heart skipped a beat. He quickly gave a dry laugh and answered, "I've only heard of it before, never once have I seen it anywhere. However, if they are the same person, there will certainly be traits that are common between them. Their cultivation techniques, skills, arts, or habits. Dear gods, you are all almighty; there is no doubt you can see through everything."

Yanmo He nodded softly, his sharp eyes fell upon Zhong Yue and Mister Bo Xun.
