Chapter 607 - I Shall Bore All The Sins Alone! (2/2)

Time has silently gobbled a huge chunk of his prowess. He was be able to stay in his peak form in the start of the battle if he had pushed for it, but his prowess would plummet quickly right after he got tired.

That being said, this would be his last battle.

All of a sudden, Zhu Jiumu's grey hairs spanned out as a strong burst of blood essence surged within his body. He stopped fighting back and instead, drawn a full bow back and shot out the rest of his energy as the strongest arrow he had ever shot in his lifetime.

The arrow was luminous., It contained his willpower and all of his cultivation base, and it was shot out with the cost of nothing, but his own life!

Blood flowed out his body, but the bow was fully drawn back again, and the blood that flowed out of his body was formed into a blood arrow.

In just the blink of an eye, eight blood arrows were shot out right after. When the ninth blood arrow was shot out, his body aged to like a dying old man. Xuan Yuan decapitated him while Shi Buyi lashed the Eight Extreme Slaughtering Array out at his hands.

Zhu Jiumu's head fountained up into the sky, but his eye was still staring at Zhong Yue where Zhong Yue clenched on the scale mirror to the front and blocked the nine arrows.

Din, din, din—

The arrows were shattered into blood silks, and a smiling expression radiated across Zhu Jiumu's wrinkled face.

All of a sudden, the blood silks turned into arrows that slipped through the scale mirror and shot toward at Zhong Yue from all directions!

Zhong Yue looked over with a bitter expression, but no matter how unwilling he was to bring death to the respected elder god, the three divine rays were still shot out from his divine eyes and killed Zhu Jiumu before the blood arrows reached him.

Zhu Jiumu's eye dimmed away, the blood arrows were lost control and dispersed away. However, some tens of blood arrows still managed to bore through Zhong Yue's mortal body before they faded away.

"Senior, may you walk on a bright path even in the afterlife…" Zhong Yue raised his head and sucked Zhu Jiumu's divine bow into his hands. He stared at the bow and mumbled, "I hope you don't hate me for doing this, I didn't want to either, but… After all, we are both just serving our races with the best we could…"

Zhong Yue sighed, he suddenly raised his head up and shouted loudly, "Patriarch Nature, sacrifice yourself!"

Immediately, the totem patterns engraved all around City of Nature started to distort and vanish away!

However, new totem patterns would always reemerge within the City of Nature and replaced those that were smited; still protecting Patriarch Nature's mortal body from fully sacrificed.

"Brat Yue, it's the Innate Qi!" Xin Huo suddenly said, "The Innate Qi is still lingering in his body, that is what kept his mortal body from dying! The altar's power is still a little below from able to offer the Innate Qi!"

"A little more?" Zhong Yue gritted his teeth, he abruptly tossed the Divine Wing Saber out and sacrificed the saint weapon.

Whereas Xin Huo lamented regretfully, "You should've used this big lion instead. He is one of the most useless thing to keep with you, he is a male lion and can't give birth to any children. Its such a waste to offer the Divine Wing Saber…"

Perhaps, Xin Huo has only simply viewed and categorized the livings into two kinds—one was those who was suitable for mating, and the other kind not suitable for mating.

A few moments later, the Divine Wing Saber was converted into the altar's power, and the City of Nature started to breakdown. Zhong Yue stood in front of the city and watched as it slowly turn into dusts.

A few hours later, the whole City of Nature was fully offered away into the purest form of energy back to the heaven and earth.

Then, Zhong Yue crouched and placed his hand at the center of the altar.

At that instant, a bloody hemisphere originating from the altar has extended to the other end of the planet in just the matter of seconds. Following by a second wave, the third… and many more!

"I curse!" Zhong Yue raised his head, he stared right into the sky and said aloud.

"I curse all of the celestial race in the Ancestral Star to lose the godly power that flows within their blood, and that their power will be sealed by this curse eternally!"

"I curse all of the demon race in the Ancestral Star to lose the godly power that flows within their blood, and that their power will be sealed by this curse eternally!"

"I curse all of the insect race in the Ancestral Star to lose the godly power that flows within their blood, and that their power will be sealed by this curse eternally!"

Zhong Yue paused for a split second, he then shouted in a furious tone, "And I curse, the future generations of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race will have to eat the human shits for the rest of their lives!"

He slowly stood up, his hair turned white like snow, and he lowered his head as he concedes, "And I shall bore all the sins alone!"

Shi Buyi and Xuan Yuan were stupefied as they looked at him aging away to an old man in just seconds.

The curse was never a one-sided ritual; at the moment of placing a curse, another curse would fall upon the caster as well.

For instance, Zhong Yue was cursed with the reduction of over 10,000 years of life.

Although he has cultivated the six secret realms and the Six Paths Reincarnations which gave him an over 10,000 years of longevity even before ascending into deityhood, he was now only left with just a few more hundred years to live.

It was truly a hefty price he has paid to execute the ritual!

"Thankfully the future human leaders wouldn't have to pay such a great price." Zhong Yue laughed, and he kept the scale mirror along with the copper lamp.

Then, he said placidly, "Big lion, little Xuan Yuan, let's leave."

The three of them walked down from the Black Mountain, Xuan Yuan looked back and he abruptly said, "Uncle Zhong, what should we call this mountain? The name of Black Mountain doesn't fit so well with the purpose of this mountain to the human race."

Zhong Yue was piqued in interest, he smiled and asked, "Then, what do you think it should be called as?"

Xuan Yuan looked up at the blood rain, and looked down at the flooding water beneath Black Mountain. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "I have an idea, I will make a new word for it. The three of us are standing above the water, then this word shall be made from the elements of three, human and water."

He wrote down a word symbol and said, "I'm going to call it 'Tai'. It symbolizes an unyielding will, an unmoving resolution, and also… an undefeatable legend. Uncle Zhong, this is where you have paved the foundation to rise for the human race. Thus, I will name this mountain, the Mount Tai!"
