Chapter 1157 - Dao Cannot Be Spoken (1/2)
Sun Guardian’s face was smashed flat on the floor, only able to move after the ancient ship had rammed past him. He quickly leaped out in anger but found that the thousand-winged ancient ship had already sailed far away.
“King Yi is a daring one to invade our Heaven Court, do not let him escape!”
Countless generals and soldiers joined in the search. Nets were thrown up into the sky to seal the place while many Tian Yan Celestial Race and Tian Ting Celestial Race scrutinized the place for Zhong Yue’s location.
“There!”
The gods were agitated, they swarmed toward the direction pointed to them and shouted, “Bei Dou Heavenly Lord has topped him. He mustn’t be let free!”
Before the gods rushed to the scene, a blurry voice with no emotions asked, “Heavenly Lord, do you know the innate Daos?”
Bei Dou Heavenly Lord sneered, “Idiot! I am an Imperial Emperor, what is there that I don’t know? My innate Dao is the Death Dao. It will take your life!”
Krong!
The gods heard a loud boom and quickly looked up to see a huge ship smashing down on Bei Dou Heavenly Lord. The old man was coughing blood out of his mouth while on the deck, stood an absentminded young man. He was shouting in anger, “You liar! You don’t know anything!”
The huge ship pushed Bei Dou Heavenly Lord on the bottom while it sailed forward and rammed past the countless heavenly generals and heavenly soldiers.
“Zhu Shi Celestial Lord, do you know the innate Daos?”
“King Yi, stay if you still have any guts! I will show you the divine pen I’ve forged with my innate Dao! It is a treasure that writes history… You little shit, get down of the ship now! What kind of hero are you to rely on the ship’s power? Oh my… I’ll stop him from the bottom of this ship. You people, quickly notify Her Majesty!”
…
The heavenly generals and heavenly soldiers were in turmoil, scattering all over the place to search for Zhong Yue.
The Heaven Court was extremely vast, it would take a long time to travel from one end to the other. But Queen Goddess was quick to receive the news. She was shocked and personally led the gods to capture Zhong Yue. But when she arrived at the scene, Zhong Yue was already long gone.
“Useless, worthless, pieces of trash! How did all of you let a mere Deity Emperor in and even allowed him to cause such a ruckus for so long!”
Queen Goddess was angered, she screamed, “What are you waiting for? Find him!”
The ruckus continued for a long time, but they still couldn’t find Zhong Yue.
…
At the end of Heavenly River, a huge nose appeared in front of the thousand-winged ancient ship. It belonged to a giant turtle. Its eyes were bright like the burning suns.
It said with the pair of eyes filled with curiosity, “Fuxi, you are looking for me?”
Zhong Yue bowed, he asked, “Senior, do you know the innate Daos?”
“I am formed from the innate Daos, how would I not know?” The giant turtle was enormously huge, it smirked and answered, “I heard the ruckus you’ve caused in the Heaven Court. You were asking them if they knew the innate Daos. What a joke, how would they?”
Zhong Yue’s thoughts returned to him, he was bestirred and quickly bowed again, he pleaded, “Senior, please enlighten me.”
The giant turtle who was also an ancient Deity King swam toward the origin of the Heavenly River. It smiled, “Don’t call me senior. They all address Earthly Sovereign as King Xiang, you can call me that too. Follow me to my cave, I’ll explain it to you.”
Zhong Yue quickly cast the ancient ship to follow behind. At the origin of the Heavenly River, there was a huge cave that appeared in front of them where star sands compressed from stars were flowing out from the cave.
When they entered the cave, he found them arriving in a vast space with a clear and transparent sky.
“This was where I once tried to open up a new world but failed. The failure wounded me greatly and so I set up my cave in here. The Heavenly River is what is left behind from the failure to open the new world.”
King Xiang smiled, “It was an era of chaos, war was everywhere. The failure had left me severely wounded. But fortunately, Lei Zhe and Pao Xi came to rescue me. To repay Monarch Pao Xi’s debt, I gifted him with the Heavenly River. He used the Heavenly River to guard the Imperial Star and started the Earth Order Era.”
Zhong Yue was greatly shocked as he stared blankly at the giant turtle. He had heard of the legends before. The Heavenly River was the remainder of an ancient expert’s attempt to open a new universe. But he never thought that that ancient expert would be King Xiang.
Moreover, he never knew this ancient Deity King would have such a deep relationship with the Fuxi Clan.
“Here is the right place for you to come. If you ask the other innate Deity Kings about the innate Daos, they wouldn’t even look an eye at you. But if you ask me, I will tell you all about it.”
The old turtle was excited, he said, “Listen carefully as I explain it to you.”
He opened his mouth but was puzzled as no voice was coming out from his throat. The old turtle hesitated for a second, then he opened his mouth again but soon forgot what he wanted to say again.
Zhong Yue waited for a few moments while old turtle King Xiang was still opening and closing his mouth without saying a word.
“Dao is just right inside of my mind, but I’d forgotten about it the moment I wanted to say it. How strange, how bizarre!” King Xiang apologized, “Perhaps, Great Sui’s divine language is unable to elucidate the innate Daos. I will use the Dao language to explain it to you.”
He opened his mouth again but still couldn’t say a word.
Moments later, the old turtle was disappointed, he said, “Even the Dao language cannot elucidate the true innate Daos. I wanted to tell you about it, but I didn’t know how to explain. It was just in me, but I couldn’t seem to remember what I wanted to say when I opened my mouth. The innate divine language is the language of the old gods, but I’m afraid that even the innate divine language couldn’t elucidate the true innate Daos.”
Zhong Yue was let down while old turtle King Xiang pondered, “Maybe, only through the psyches, can I impart my knowledge of innate Daos to you. Open yourself and receive my psyches!”
His psyches rumbled, it was incredibly abundant like the cosmos itself.
Zhong Yue’s psyche reached out to his psyche but still couldn’t find any information getting transmitted to him.
