Chapter 724 - The Heavenly Monarchs Hilt of Supreme Power (1/2)

Zhong Yue opened his eyes wide and stared into the light beam. He was afraid that the tears would sneakily escape his eyes.

The Fuxi Clan's greatest monarch was no more, his soul had entered to the Void World seeking asylum; but now, he was back, having returned from the Void World to fight for the one last time!

Dead, and yet, still fighting!

Such an unyielding spirit, perhaps this was the spirit of the Fuxi Clan that the world knew?

But the outcome of the battle was destined from the start. The evil presence was unboundedly strong, his alliances were numerous and each was a powerful enemy themselves. The forces that stood by his side were unstoppable!

Their faces were either shrouded in darkness or covered, they clearly didn't want their identities to be exposed.

When the Heavenly Monarch was alive, they didn't dare to utter a single word of dissent toward him, but after the Heavenly Monarch died, they had lost all restraint!

The battle was aimed to execute the main forces of the Fuxi Clan; those that could be part of the Heavenly Monarch's funeral procession were those that the Heavenly Monarch valued most.

If they were dead, the Fuxi Clan would be faced with a severe issue—the lack of talents for the next few thousand years, and the loss of their cultivation heritage!

But the Fuxi Clan's Heavenly Monarch had aged greatly. He once suppressed the whole era on his own; he was the strongest, greatest and most talented leader the world had ever seen!

Legends said that Fuxi created the Six Paths and Hou Tu completed the Reincarnations. And that Fuxi was him!

But his mortal body couldn't beat father time. Zhong Yue had seen many aged gods, their worn out mortal body could no longer contain their arcane energy and life essence. It would slowly seep out of their body, and the cultivation base they had all worked on for all their lives would slowly return back to the universe.

No matter what, death was inevitable.

No one could ever remain at their peak while they were alive, let alone when they were already dead.

Fuxi fueled his power with his own soul, but even so, it still couldn't match his power during his prime.

The greatest presence made his way back to the world of the living, but what was destined couldn't be rewritten.

He was no longer the Heavenly Monarch, but just a wizened old man, a timeworn soul.

In the battle, not a single Fuxi took a step back, not a single Fuxi had fallen elsewhere other than around the Heavenly Monarch's coffin. One by one, the Fuxi, the god of wars were put to sleep.

Zhong Yue couldn't stand the scene anymore. Those were his ancestors warring and bleeding for the fate of their descendants.

Finally, the cries of battle slowly ceased. Even the dead Heavenly Monarch couldn't have changed anything. At his last moment, he ignited his soul and spirit and turned it into the last sword strike.

That sword strike lit up the whole universe. becoming the strongest sword in the history of time.

The evil presence suffered severe damage, and the endless darkness ebbed away.

"That'll stop you for a thousand years, at the least." The aged Heavenly Monarch hovered above his coffin, supporting himself with the divine sword while he put up a gentle smile on his face.

Then, his mortal body began disintegrating into lights, and his soul dispersed. Even the divine sword in his hands faded away like light particles.

Soon, within a matter of seconds, he would no longer leave a single trace in this world anymore.

"I hope, in these thousand years, one of our children may rise and lead the Fuxi Clan to greatness again…"

His mortal body and soul had completely disappeared and the coffin shattered into pieces, leaving only his hoarse voice lingering in the air.

In the end, the last Fuxi Clan's Heavenly Monarch couldn't end up buried in the clan's ancestral land.

Zhong Yue stood numbly on the bow, his tears were all dried up. Although the last Fuxi Heavenly Monarch had bought a thousand years of time for the clan, no single Fuxi descendants were able to grow powerful enough to save the clan from domination.

The Fuxi Clan still waned.

At the end of the scenes, the evil presence walked out from the Pan Gu Celestial Being's forehead of the first Six Paths World. Seizing the time when Reincarnation Monarch has passed away, the evil presence blood sacrificed the living beings in the first Six Paths World and marked the end of the Earth Order Era.

"Strange, why did the scenes of the ancient days of 100 thousand years ago reappear?" Heavenly King Shang mumbled.

The teleportation light beam on the Imperial Road of the Heavenly Monarch dimmed down, and the ancient ships grew shabby again as if they were returning back to the flow of time.

The ancient battle was so intense it left an indelible mark in the teleportation beam. And for some unknown reason, the mark in the teleportation beam was triggered and shown the scenes of the battle 100 thousand years ago.

"Look! Look!" One of the eight generals, Tian Yan, suddenly shouted, "What is that!?"

The crowd looked over and saw in the midst of the fading teleportation beam, a strange ball of light remained blindingly bright.

"What is it?"

All of them looked over, even Heavenly King Shang struggled to open his eyes to take a look at the light ball's nature.

But to his surprise, even a celestial emperor like him failed to see through it. Not only him, but Tian Yan who was said to have the best pair of eyes in the whole of Wei Shen Six Paths World couldn't glean anything either.

However, there was one thing for sure—it was getting closer to them, and it was fast. Seconds before, it was just a small dot in their vision, but now it was much bigger like a ball.

Heavenly King Shang suddenly felt uneasy, he quickly shouted, "Raise the flags, quickly! We will leave this place now!"
