Chapter 1116 - Fish Pond (1/2)
Chapter 1116: Fish Pond
Hua Qianwen was boisterous and exuberant, and she could discover things others would be oblivious to, something even Zhong Yue had to admit was impressive.
Any existence that stood on the same level as the Innate Saint Spirit Body was all incredible.
After bidding farewell to Hua Qianwen, Zhong Yue returned to Goddess Shen Hou and the goddess praised after taking a few glances at Zhong Yue, “Good, even stronger than before. young Fuxi, the stronger you are, the happier I will be, but so will my worry increase.”
Confused at such a statement, Zhong Yue smiled, “Goddess, I know that this is something to be happy about, but where is your worry from?”
“I’ve seen mortals’ fish farming, they always start by breeding fishes, feeding them every day and caring for them.”
Goddess Shen Hou did not answer Zhong Yue’s question directly, “Once the fish are ready to be harvested, they would net them up, if there are still immature fish, they would release these fish back into the water while the matured fish are eaten.”
“Goddess, you think that some kind of existence is rearing me to catch me and eat me when I’m strong enough?”
A smile uncontrollably split on Zhong Yue’s face, “Who is capable of this? Is he not worried at all? That the fish he thinks is weak is actually an alligator that would eat him alive instead?”
Goddess Shen Hou rolled her eyes and mocked, “You? The alligator? You overestimate yourself and underestimate them. What they breed is not just a fish but a whole pond of fish. And they have been doing this for a very long time, since all the way back to the Fire Order Era. They also bred monstrous sized fish but without a fail, these fishes were all netted and eaten alive by them! None of these fishes are any smaller than you, their identity and origin is much scarier than you could imagine!”
Zhong Yue blinked his eyes and said, “Oh? So the goddess knows something, why don’t you share it with me?”
Goddess Shen Hou said, “What if I told you that the improvements of Dao skills are actually them breeding the postnate living beings, so that the postnate living beings could use their intelligence to help these existences develop and perfect Dao skills? And what if I told you that the postnate living beings will be harvested and eaten alive when the time is right? Now, do you still think that things are as simple as you thought?”
A cold shivered down Zhong Yue’s spine hearing this.
“And when the Heavenly Monarchs are getting old, they would start causing trouble but some of them would still die in these fishermen’s hands, ending up tragically. This is their fishing operation, what do you think?”
Zhong Yue trembled again and a scary thought emerged in his mind.
“Forget about those really old ones, let’s talk about the recent ones. If you ran into Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan’s monarch spirit, you can ask him about the cause of his death, and the other one, how did Dao Venerate Fu Min die? Why had Xin Huo gone into a slumber so long? Do you think all of these happened because it’s only time to happen?” said Goddess Shen Hou, “Do you think that the postnate living beings are really the rulers of this universe? Have you not noticed that your fate and destiny, all of it is being controlled by something?”
Zhong Yue couldn’t help but feel cold, “What do you know, goddess.”
Goddess Shen Hou sighed and she waved her hand in exhaustion, “I do know a lot but some things can’t be spoken. Right now, all you need to know is that there is an organization that had existed ever since the Dark Age. Heh, postnate living beings? Rulers of the universe? They’ve never been the rulers of this universe…. Never….”
Zhong Yue was dumbfounded by this revelation, his mind went blank and after shaking away his shock, he calmed himself down.
An organization that controlled the destiny of all living beings and the universe’s operation?
One that would harvest the pool when it was time?
A mastermind behind the history responsible for ending an era?
Wasn’t this just way too crazy?
But if Goddess Shen Hou refused to talk about it anymore, it would be inappropriate for Zhong Yue to ask anymore, leaving him with a heart pumping quickly over the shock he received.
Sometime later, with his shock cleared, Zhong Yue bowed and said, “Goddess, there are two Daos that I fail to understand, they are the Heaven Dao and Innate Mountain Dao, could you please teach me?”
“Innate Mountain Dao, Heaven Dao?”
Surprised by this request, Goddess Shen Hou thought for a while and said, “I know little about the Heavenly Dao, my sister and Lei Zhe know more about it but… Shame….”
She shook her head and said, “Maybe try Lei Zhe Sacred Ground and see Leizhe’s shed body but his condition is a little terrible right now….”
She did not say much about this and continued, “Lei Zhe Sacred Ground, the ancient Lei Zhe Realm is in the lower realm but its core, the place that births the innate celestial dragon has been moved to Zi Wei, it was also destroyed in a battle. Go and meet Chuo Long, if you are lucky enough, you may be able to find Leizhe’s shed body, as for the Innate Mountain Dao….”
“You should head to the north of Zi Wei, there is an innate sacred ground there, one from the ancient universe, which probably is the most ancient sacred mountain in the whole universe. You might find the thing you want there, but that place….”
She hesitated for a second and Zhong Yue tried his luck, “Yuan Ya Deity King’s innate sacred ground?”
His guess caught Goddess Shen Hou’s off guard, had her shouting, “You even know about him?”
“His disciple and I have crossed paths a few times.”
Zhong Yue got up and took his leave, but not before he bowed, “Thank you for your time, your humble disciple will now take his leave. Fair well, goddess.”
