Chapter 1128: Yuan Ya
Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief when the three left. Then, he looked up to the sky with a stern face.
It wasn’t him who killed Shen Xiage nor was it Great Si Ming; it was the Heavenly Dao, Heaven’s power.
Back in the Space Bottle, he had Shen Xiage, Feng Yuhuan, and Xie Yang vow to [Tian Yin], the skill of the 14th Drawing of Heavenly Daos. The vow was not made to him, but to the Heavenly Daos.
The vow was not easy to do, it was only possible because Zhong Yue had mastered a Heavenly Dao’s skill. In turn, if it were someone who didn’t know a Heavenly Dao’s skill like him, the vow to the Heavenly Daos wouldn’t even work at all.
Fortunately, as he had studied and cultivated a Heavenly Dao’s skill, the vows Shen Xiage, Feng Yuhuan, and Xie Yang had made to the Heavenly Daos were considered effective; thus, the happening of the vow abnormalities and brandings.
So long as they dared to attack him, the Heavenly Daos would punish them for going against their vows!
Furthermore, the vow would follow them for the rest of their lives, even after they had become monarchs in the future. As long as they attacked Zhong Yue, the heavenly retribution would come for them!
Of course, it remained a question if they would be able to resist the heavenly retribution when they had become monarchs. Even Zhong Yue wasn’t sure if the Heavenly Daos’ punishment was able to kill the monarchs.
After all, he hadn’t seen it before, not even Xin Huo had heard of any monarchs getting killed by the Heavenly Daos’ powers.
As for Zhuo Ya, he was only scared away because of Shen Xiage’s death. Although he wanted Zhong Yue to die the most, he, as Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciple, was heavily exposed to Yuan Ya Deity King’s heartlessness. His intention to kill Zhong Yue was to mostly avenge the humiliation given to him.
But when the situation would threaten his very existence, he would naturally back off and leave.
Zhong Yue calmed himself, just when he was headed for the Imperial Star, his body suddenly stopped and so did the thousand-winged ancient warship. His cultivation, arcane energy, Yuan Shen, and muscles were unable to move!
It was as if time had stopped. Such was the result of an abundantly strong arcane energy and an unimaginably powerful skill. It was in a league beyond the Heavenly Monarchs!
Even Zhong Yue’s thoughts were slowed, struggling to think as he thought, Yuan Ya Deity King is here!
This feeling was extremely uncomfortable, as if numerous forces were squeezing him from all sides, squishing on his mortal body, Daos, arcane energy, psyche, Yuan Shen, and even his mind.
His thoughts slowed drastically, and with it, so did his reactions. His mortal body was slow to move, his Daos, arcane energy, and psyche were reacting tardily to his thoughts, preventing him from casting skills and divine weapon. The slowing down of his Yuan Shen pushed him a step further toward death!
To be able to control so many forces and stop him in so many aspects, including the thousand-winged ancient warship, it could only be the Yuan Ya Deity King, who has cultivated the Innate Mountain Dao!
The Innate Mountain Dao’s core idea was the element of immutability while its presentation was endless changes. Thus, as one who had completely mastered the Innate Mountain Dao’s power, Yuan Ya Deity King was able to easily stop Zhong Yue on the spot before even arriving at the scene!
This was something he had never taught his disciples, not even Zhuo Ya!
If Zhuo Ya were taught the Innate Mountain Dao, he would be able to pin Zhong Yue down on the ground and capture him with ease.
Zhong Yue was completely stopped on the thousand-winged ancient ship. Then, he saw the space before him suddenly open as if a huge needle was protruding out from a piece of metal. The distorted dimensions rolled to the side as the deformation grew larger and bigger.
Naturally, it wasn’t a needle that caused it, but Yuan Ya Deity King’s aura that had pierced through the dimensions.
In a despairing silence, an old man with a slightly hunched back walked out of the distorted dimension. He carried no mortal air and had no sense of wordly air.
He was Yuan Ya Deity King.
“What a tiger I have raised. How dare you kill in my homeground.”
Yuan Ya Deity King walked toward him. In Zhong Yue’s eyes, the universe was toppled upside down as if the rules and laws of the universe’s operation were rewritten!
Yuan Ya Deity King was unimaginably strong, he was on a whole new level to any other experts Zhong Yue had ever met, not even the monarchs could compare to him.
A monarch wasn’t even fit to describe Yuan Ya Deity King’s level, his level was the closest to the Dao Gods, a level where it felt like he could rewrite and reform the Daos of the universe!
“My homeground is not something you can toy with. But since you have, then pay the price with your life.”
Yuan Ya Deity King continued walking toward him. Zhong Yue could feel the shuddering dimensions around him, collapsing and disintegrating into the smallest atoms. Even his mortal body and Yuan Shen were trembling as well.
It was a desperate gap between them. While he was still chasing after stronger skills and deeper attainments in Daos, Yuan Ya Deity King was already peeking into the very foundation of the Daos, the very fundamentals of the universe!
