Chapter 962 - A Hundred Years Promise (1/2)

Because of this Dao Guardian's responsibilities, Zhong Yue had been going through a lot. Apart from fending off all those with malicious intent, he also had to prevent those from the same side falling to the temptation of the Amaryllis. He also had to keep his guard up against himself, fearing that he would lose his mind as well.

Now, with the Hundredth Reincarnated Saint Amaryllis blossomed, Bi An was born into the world, and Zhong Yue was finally able to absolve himself of a Dao Guardian's responsibilities.

On the Martial Saint Stage, even more gods got up after Zhong Yue walked away; previously, when Zhong Yue showed and explained the seventh secret realm, these gods had a glimpse of new knowledge and were now fervently discussing with each other about their understandings.

However, given the short amount of the time Zhong Yue shown them the seventh secret realm, these gods did not manage to learn much, so they could only grasp firmly onto what they learned and continue dwelling into it.

However, to be able to understand even a little bit, they were all talented gods. With their combined intelligence, even the smallest rivers would turn into a massive torrent when combined!

One by one, the gods started speaking, and even Zhong Yue himself felt that he had benefited a lot from the talks for there were a lot of talks about certain areas that he had not dwelled into.

Gradually, the Deity Emperors and Creators appeared and their talks were even more complicated and beneficiary.

"Mister Yi, in the future, we might be serving different masters and cross swords one day."

Suddenly, an Imperial Emperor walked up to the Martial Saint Stage and caused an uproar with his opening speech. The gods around were all excited as this Imperial Emperor came from the Heaven Court. He was the Yu Lin Army's commander. His name was Feng Wendao, a member of the Phoenix Clan.

With a simple flick, Feng Wendao's armour detached pieces by pieces, flew towards the corner and he smiled, "But today, I am not the Yu Lin Army's commander after I removed my armour. Now, I'll be giving my speech through this Martial Saint Stage. Whatever happens in the future belongs to the future, not now."

Zhong Yue then bowed slightly and invited, "Please, Senior Martial Brother Wendao."

Feng Wendao bowed back and said, "The pursuit of the Dao is agnostic to seniority, only our knowledge matters in the end. Dear senior martial brothers and junior martial brothers, may I have your attention for a moment?"

He then shared his knowledge with everyone generously and compared to ordinary Deity Emperors and Creators, the contents in his speech were so much more complicated and advanced, which benefitted Zhong Yue even more.

After some time, when Feng Wendao was done with his speech, laughter burst out as another Imperial Emperor revealed himself. It was Lilu Clan's Lu Qianqiu. He continued, "After benefiting so much from hearing such a detailed long talk, how petty will I be if I did not share as well?"

After Lu Qianqiu's speech, another Imperial Emperor got up and this time, it was Imperial Emperor Xian Tian's Dao buddy, Tai Feng. He gave an amazing speech, then, one of the three South Heaven Gate's Heavenly Kings, Heavenly King Xuan Wuzun got up, then Lou Zhengshi of the Heavenly River Navy Division and then Long Zhi.

One by one, these Imperial Emperors shared their knowledge one after another.

And this situation only stopped after about a month's time.

Meanwhile in the Six Imperial Palace, the six monarchs were constantly looking at Martial Saint Stage's lively situation with inconsistent breaths.

"Golden bird, what does this remind you of?" asked Demon Monarch Yang Hou towards Celestial Monarch Jin Wu softly.

With a complicated look in his eyes, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu kept quiet for a long time before saying, "I recalled Dao Venerate Fu Min's reign. Back then, everything was in order, glorious and honourable. It was so much more livelier than this and I too, was like one of them. Apart from the eagerness to pursue Dao, there were no other mixed emotions in my mind."

The demon Qi in Demon Monarch Yang Hou's eyes flickered and he agreed, "I was among those ranks too. I recall seeking knowledge about the Six Paths Reincarnation from you and back then, there seemed to have no difference between celestials, demons and races. Back then, I did not call you as golden bird and you did not call me as the goat headed demon. We were getting along with each other."

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu smiled as he recalled of the time when the celestial, demon and different races lived with one another as one. There were no conflicts, misconceptions and they were all working towards the same goal.

Dao Venerate Fu Min, the final Heavenly Monarch of the Earth Order Era, had affected the universes with his charisma, calmed the war between all races and finally, the innates and postnates were all working hard for the Six Paths Reincarnation.

When did all that change? They were no longer friendly to each other and those gods that they once called friends had become foes.

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu felt lost; partners that once got along with each other were not as close as they were, the celestial and demons were no longer communicating with one another and even invisible barriers appeared between innate celestial gods, innate demon gods and between both the postnatal and innate gods. When did all of this strife begin?

His memories clearly emerged in his mind again. When the war first started, he was furious and puzzled, he felt injustice spread slowly around him and he questioned why his Dao friends had broken the peace they all worked so hard for.

But the wars between the races, celestials, demons, innate and postnate gods still ruined the majestic era that Dao Venerate Fu Min had built.

He felt an invisible torrent charging around in the universe, destroying anything it touched as if there were a mastermind behind the scenes pulling the strings.

Then, Dao Venerate Fu Min bared his fangs. With his overwhelming army, he stomped the universe; Celestial Monarch Jin Wu's friends became enemies, killed in the chaos and for him, he hid himself away from the war, fearing that he would be dragged into the bloodbath.

Then, Crown Prince Fu Shang appeared, accusing Dao Venerate Fu Min of being the source for all the chaos, causing a wide scale uproar. The spirit that connected the celestials, demons, innates and postnates had disintegrated.

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu felt anger, agony and he voiced out his questions and even became one of the main factors that destroyed the Earth Order Era.

Some time later, whenever he recalled the chaotic times, he grew suspicious about whatever happened and the more he suspected, the more he felt that Dao Venerate Fu Min was not the man pulling the strings.
