Chapter 921 - Dao Assimilations (1/2)
When Imperial Emperor Xian Tian told him the news, it also meant that Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was about to make his move against the Heaven Court!
The exact moment he advanced into a Heavenly Monarch would herald the beginning of the war!
Zhong Yue, however, felt that it was still not time yet; though the world was in chaos, the situation was still not extremely terrible yet, hence, he felt that Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was a little impatient in making his decision.
Now, the many lords waged war against each other but the war was only among themselves, not the 24 monarch races and the 7 sovereign races. These races were still extremely calm as only a few of them were involved in the war and even so, it was only to a certain extent.
The chaos in Zhong Yue's mind was a situation where everyone was dragged into the battle, where the hidden powers of the many sovereign and monarch races were revealed and dispatched into the battle and Heavens were destroyed!
The ancient universe was to be involved in this great battle in order to create turbulence in the ancient universe, the six great celestial monarch races and six great demon monarch races were supposed to attack as well, resulting in a war where the innate celestial and demon gods fought ferociously with the usage of massive power.
The 3,000 Six Paths Worlds too, must not be excluded. They too were supposed to be dragged into the battle and the many gods were to fight for themselves. Such was the chaotic war Zhong Yue was waiting for!
That time was the best time to strike for the throne.
"Recently, I can constantly feel the Dao, heaven, and earth closely within my grasp. From time to time, my psyche would reach every corner in this world and link me with the Dao."
Zhong Yue was stunned upon hearing this as what Imperial Emperor Xian Tian described signified that he was on the verge of stepping on the impossible level.
"I feel like I am being affected by the Dao, turning into the Dao itself. This might be a sign that I am about to become a Heavenly Monarch."
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian smiled, "I am preparing to sever myself from the outside world to focus on my cultivation. This might last for a hundred years. Do you have any advice for me, Mister Yi?"
Zhong Yue thought for a moment and said, "That is the timing that the Heavenly Monarch is waiting for."
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's body flinched and he nodded at Zhong Yue's reply, "That's what Zi Guang said too. He said that the Heavenly Monarch did not do anything because he was well aware of my power. If I went into a hundred years cultivation, the Heavenly Monarch would definitely spare no effort in trying to annihilate Xian Tian Palace. If Zi Guang and Mister Yi say so, then I can only assume that the Heavenly Monarch is definitely lying in wait."
This was indeed, a very tough predicament he is facing. Obviously, there was a very intelligent strategist supporting Heavenly Monarch from behind, feeding him this plan to ignore everything but his biggest problem, the Xian Tian Palace, and wait for his foe to reveal his weakness.
Only through removing Xian Tian Palace would the Heavenly Monarch be able to suppress the chaos!
And Imperial Emperor Xian Tian had no choice but to expose his weakness.
"Who is the one helping Heavenly Monarch? Is that person Ghost Master?" asked Zhong Yue.
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian shook, "No. Ghost Master is a sly and cunning man. Zi Guang once said that Ghost Master is an expert in all sorts of considerably mysterious and dirty moves, a trickster undefeatable in his field but as every gods, he has his own weakness. Once he focuses too much on the details, he lacks the ability to clearly see the situation as a whole. Unlike Ghost Master, the one aiding Heavenly Monarch is using a direct and creative tactic. This is the reason why Zi Guang said he is a powerful opponent."
"Even Your Majesty does not know who he is?"
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian shook his head, "No. I've been planning for a long time and planted countless spies in the Heaven Court. But there had been no information about this strategist. Only a few can rival you and Zi Guang in terms of intelligence in this universe. While Zi Guang is good at planning, Mister Yi excels in combat. But this time, I'm afraid you've all run into a formidable foe! But my cultivation can't be delayed any further. Do you have any other ideas?"
Zhong Yue asked, "Can Your Majesty become a Heavenly Monarch with only a side of your body?"
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian hesitated, "Zi Guang also asked the same thing but things would become unbalanced quickly. If I become a Heavenly Monarch through the demon Dao, my celestial Dao will fall and vice versa. In the end, either way is good to me."
Zhong Yue understood what Imperial Emperor Xian Tian meant right away.
Though he was a natural-born innate god, the demonic and celestial element had always been incompatible with one another, just like water and fire. No matter which of his true body reached the Heavenly Monarch level, his other body was bound to be suppressed by the one that first achieved the Heavenly Monarch stage, making it incredibly difficult for his other body to achieve the same level!
"If there is a gain, there will be a loss. You must be decisive, Your Majesty. I believe that you can find the best way in the end!"
With a sigh, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian left with a frustrated expression.
He's going to ascend into a Heavenly Monarch already? That quick?
Zhong Yue lowered his head as he thought; Chuo Long, who was an innate dragon god, had experienced the Fire and Earth Order Era and even so, he did not become a Heavenly Monarch. As for Li Yang and Wu Dulang, Wu Dulang was still in the Imperial Emperor level and if Li Yang was not ambushed and forced to be reborn, he was at most on the same level as Wu Dulang.
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, on the other hand, was much younger than all of them but he was the first among them to have a glimpse of the Heavenly Monarch level. Were the innate gods really that powerful?
Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was the rarest one among the innate gods, one with both celestial and demonic elements in him, which bestowed him talents beyond Li Yang, Wu Dulang and even Chuo Long's. But then again, wasn't this cultivation speed a little too scary?
