Rise of Humanity - Chapter 1159

Chapter 1159: Becoming Innate

“I know now!” King Xiang exclaimed out in shock as he finally figured out, “He has assimilated his Daos so he could attract the Daos of heaven and earth to evolve his Dao Yi Secret Realm into an innate sacred ground! He is trying to transcend into an innate god in his own innate sacred ground!”

Xin Huo’s eyes brightened up, he quickly asked, “Would it work?”

“Well…” King Xiang hesitated for a moment before he answered carefully, “It’s possible. The Dao Yi Secret Realm is opened in the Chaos inside of the cultivator’s mind. The Pan Gu Celestial cleaved the Chaos and opened a new world, such is the opening of the Dao Yi Secret Realm. Theoretically speaking, on a micro-scale, the cosmos in his brain can be considered as an innate sacred ground. When the cosmos was born, there were many innate sacred grounds that were created along with its birth. Thus, it is possible that he can turn the cosmos in his brain into an innate sacred ground. But the dangerous part is whether or not his Dao can fully elucidate the cosmos? If he can’t, then…”

Xin Huo asked anxiously, “Then what?”

“Hmm, are the Fuxis really extinct?” King Xiang didn’t answer, he winked his eyes and said, “Why is it that I still remember there are a few pureblood Fuxis in the unworldly land? Why don’t you consider making one of them in the State of Heavenly River as your inheritor? I can bring you in there, I was one of them who helped create the Fuxi’s unworldly land…”

Xin Huo was piqued in anger, “No! Their blood may be pure, but their hearts are Fuxis no more. I want him and him only!”

“A new one might be even better…” King Xiang murmured softly. Then, he answered, “I’m afraid that his Dao is unable to elucidate the cosmos. If the elucidation is incomplete, the simulation of the cosmos in his mind will also be incomplete, this will make it impossible for the birth of the innate sacred ground. By then, the module will collapse, everything he has worked for will return to Chaos in the blink of an eye. You’ll see him collapse from within; starting with his brain sinking in, followed by his body. He will shrink so small that even I can’t see him anymore.”

“You might as well just say that he’d die, can’t you?” Xin Huo grew angrier, “If you didn’t answer him that the whole cosmos is a huge innate sacred ground, he won’t have all these crazy ideas!”

King Xiang quickly smiled awkwardly, “Of course, there is also a possibility that his Dao is able to elucidate the cosmos and evolve the Dao Yi Secret Realm into a stable innate sacred ground. Look, he is Dao assimilating himself so he can lure the Daos of heaven and earth here. What are the Daos of heaven and earth? They aren’t the totem pattern Daos, but the true innate Daos. Furthermore, after the Daos of heaven and earth have merged with the innate Daos he has cultivated, there is a chance for him to…”

“His [Innate Eight Trigrams] is not yet complete!” A cold chill traveled down Xin Huo’s spine, he shivered in terror as he suddenly recalled, “Old turtle, his innate sacred ground lacks the Heaven Dao! What would happen then?”

“You are saying, he is still lacking in preparation?” King Xiang’s mouth was agape with his eyes flared wide. Moments later, he quickly said, “We are not far from the unworldly land, I can bring us there and find you a new inheritor before you extinguish! Come, let’s go now!”

Xin Huo burst in flame, cooking King Xiang’s bald head, the smell the cooked meat filled the air.

The old turtle and the little flame stared closely and anxiously at Zhong Yue’s Dao Yi Secret Realm. That was the world in Zhong Yue’s mind. He had constrained the Daos of heaven and earth in his Dao Yi Secret Realm, trying to merge the Daos into his Dao Yi Secret Realm and use the Pan Gu Celestial Being to subdue the Daos so he could simulate the cosmos in his mind.

His elucidation of the cosmos was based on his [Innate Eight Trigrams]. The core was the Yin Yang Tai Chi, surrounded by the Four Symbols, and followed by the Eight Trigrams.

Now, the totem pattern Daos he had cultivated his whole life were all assimilated away. If he didn’t succeed, he would end up just like how King Xiang has described. His brain would not be able to take it and he would shrink into a spacetime singularity. By then, he would disintegrate back into a part of Chaos and disappear from the cosmos forever.

Chi—

Xin Huo was on King Xiang’s head, his flames burning anxiously. King Xiang’s bald head’s was starting to be cooked. The fire spirits around looked at King Xiang’s head and wanted to tell the ancient Deity King about his head but stopped themselves from interrupting.

Dao voices could be heard coming from Zhong Yue’s Dao Yi Secret Realm. They sounded incredibly abstruse and filled with mystical knowledge that could inebriate cultivators. These were the innate Dao voices, similar to the Dao language.

The innate Dao voices were produced from the innate Daos’ movement. Even listening to the voices could impart the cultivators with a vast array of knowledge about the Daos.

However, it wasn’t long until random noises started to appear in the midst of the Dao voices. The noises grew stronger and louder with every second, interrupting in the melodious Dao voices.

This was due to Zhong Yue lacking in his [Innate Eight Trigrams]. The lack of Heaven Dao had ultimately become crack in the foundation of his Innate Eight Trigrams Saint Ground!

In his Dao Yi Secret Realm, his Pan Gu Celestial was trembling. The hand seals it was making turned messy and the innate sacred ground was showing signs of collapsing!

Krong, krong—

Zhong Yue’s face flushed red and his head expanded a few times larger.

As his Dao Yi Secret Realm was expanding, his head was also expanded to contain it inside!

Chi-la—

King Xiang’s bald head was charred red by Xin Huo while his remaining moustaches were plucked out by his own hands!

“Let’s go, let’s go, I’ll find you a pureblood inheritor!” King Xiang said, “There is no need to watch anymore. His head is expanded by the Dao Yi Secret Realm’s expansion. A short while later, his Dao Yi Secret Realm will collapse and shrink into nothingness. His cultivation art is incomplete, the most crucial ingredient is missing. He is dead for sure!”

As he finished saying that, a huge seal flew out and slammed into Zhong Yue’s Dao Yi Secret Realm. With the seal’s mergence, his Dao Yi Secret Realm’s stopped trembling that much. Then, another silver plate flew out and fell into his Dao Yi Secret Realm, slowing the Dao Yi Secret Realm from trembling further.

Zhong Yue’s huge head slowly returned to normal as his Dao Yi Secret Realm was slowly stabilized.

King Xiang stopped in his tracks and exclaimed in shock, “The Treasures of Heavenly Daos? Is he planning to use these two Treasures of Heavenly Daos to replace his shortcomings? But, there are only two Treasures of Heavenly Daos, they are not enough to suppress his innate sacred ground.”

Sure enough, Tian Pan and Tian Yin only suppressed Zhong Yue’s Dao Yi Secret Realm for some time. After that, his Dao Yi Secret Realm started trembling again and his head expanded once more. However, this time, the rate wasn’t as terrifyingly as before.

Hu—

A sword hilt flew out and took the place of the missing Heaven Trigram. But even the Power Hilt of Heavenly Monarch couldn’t fully suppress the secret realm from trembling.

“How, how? What now?” Xin Huo jumped into King Xiang’s ears and shouted at the top of his lungs.

King Xiang was stunned, he never thought that Zhong Yue could really suppress the innate sacred ground, even for just a short while. However, the delay wouldn’t change the final outcome, it was only a matter of time before his death arrives.

“He is already starting to complete his inner cosmos and elucidate the cosmos with his Dao but it’s too late now. If he was given time, he might’ve really succeeded…”

King Xiang mulled, his face was covered in mixed feelings.

“Fine, fine, fine. This is what I owe to you Fuxis. I will now return the favor!”

All of a sudden, King Xiang gritted his teeth. He raised his hand and severed his right arm. The right arm flew out and turned into a humongous turtle leg, flying into Zhong Yue’s Dao Yi Secret Realm and raised like a towering pillar beside Tian Yin and Tian Pan.

As one of the most saintly and ancient Deity Kings, an existence of Daos, his turtle leg was also formed by the innate Daos. Although his innate Dao wasn’t Heaven Dao, its power was beyond Zhong Yue’s Tian Pan and Tian Yin. Thus, its addition in the Dao Yi Secret Realm finally stopped the secret realm from trembling!

Although the Dao Yi Secret Realm was still not stabilized, still trembling from time to time, the situation was not as tenuous anymore.

“Effective!” Xin Huo’s eyes lit up, he quickly said, “King Xiang, one more leg, that’ll wrap it all up!”

King Xiang glared at Xin Huo. Then, he turned back into his true form of a giant turtle. The whole of his left front leg was severed and he said, “Little Fuxi, I’ve given you the most I can! I’ll leave my leg in your Dao Yi Secret Realm to help you stabilize it. When, in the future, you have stabilized it on your own, remember to return my leg!”

“Thank you, Dao Brother.” Zhong Yue answered.

In his Dao Yi Secret Realm, the Innate Eight Trigrams Sacred Ground was finally stabilized. Mystical Dao voices were chanting in it while the Gui Tree was rooted inside of the innate sacred ground and receiving the innate sacred ground’s blessings. Life force was returned into its branches, new verdant leaves were grown and flowers bloomed.

After all the experiences of nearly dying in the Dao Assimilations and crazily pumping its life force into Zhong Yue, it has now finally rewarded with a huge prize.

Furthermore, after the stabilization of Zhong Yue’s Innate Eight Trigrams Sacred Ground, the Dao voices also bestowed it with incredible knowledge. It suddenly understood many things it couldn’t before.

“Oh my, I thought I was going to die!” The saint herb heaved a breath of relief and said. Its voice sounded like a young maiden’s voice.

All of a sudden, the Dao Yi Secret Realm exclaimed in shock again, “Who is talking inside of my body? A ghost! Master King Xiang, there is a ghost in me!”

King Xiang staggered back its own cave, he was laughing while shaking his head, “Idiot, you have been blessed with the innate sacred ground’s birth. You are now a cultivator! You have a soul now!”

The saint herb Dao Yi Secret Realm was stunned, it shouted in shock, “I am a cultivator now?”

“Are you not?” King Xiang turned his head around and laughed, “This is your fate, something I couldn’t give you. But the little Fuxi had done it.”

“I am really a cultivator now?” Dao Yi Secret Realm was shocked and overjoyed, its branches danced in the air in extreme happiness. The saint herb chuckled happily, “I can cultivate now? Can I finally fight back at those who tried to eat me? Haahahaha, your mother I can walk now, I can run now, I can also jump!”

Meanwhile, Xin Huo quickly flew into Zhong Yue’s Dao Yi Secret Realm and scolded, “Don’t jump anymore! Your master just sacrificed a leg to stabilize this place. Make anymore ruckus in here and you can go crying if this place collapse again!”

Immediately, the Gui Tree stopped and slowly walked away with its roots, it smiled, “Your mother I…”

Xin Huo rolled his eyes and Gui Tree quickly corrected, “Sister I am different now. I am a cultivator, I am prepared to have fun in the vast and amazing worlds…”

Xin Huo replied insouciantly, “Once you leave this place, you’d be captured and eaten for sure.”

Gui Tree immediately shuddered in cold and fear.

Xin Huo said, “You should first learn to transform yourself into a celestial or demon or something else. This way, no one can see through your true form and they won’t think of eating you anymore.”

“How do I do that?” The saint herb asked dumbly.

“How would I know? I am a spirit fire, not a herb cultivator. Ask your master.”

All of a sudden, sounds of trembling could be heard again and Xin Huo and Gui Tree were shocked. They thought Zhong Yue’s Innate Eight Trigrams Sacred Ground was starting to collapse again. But soon, they noticed the tremblings came from Zhong Yue’s body.

His Dao Yi Secret Realm burst in lights, shining from his head down to all parts of his body.

Wherever the lights reached, secret realms were opened in his body. The Yin Yang, Shen Cai, Wan Xiang, Wu Xing, Bloodline, Space, and Time Secret Realms all reopened once more. However, this time, the secret realms were not opened in his spirit, but in both his mortal body and soul!

However, the eighth secret realm was quickly closed followed by the seventh secret realm. They didn’t last long before closing.
