Rise of Humanity

Chapter 433 - Nacre Lake

Both Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er were speechless, and Zhong Yue thought again, According to what Tian Wu God said, this place was once the imperial court of Kun Lun where the Reincarnation Monarch dealt with government affairs. So this must be where the first Six Paths World\'s imperial court was located. When I first opened the Six Paths, I once saw the destruction of the first Six Paths World. A sinister existence that walked out from the head of the Six Path Gigantus God and annihilated the gods in the imperial court…

And when Zhong Yue saw the imperial court being toppled, he also witnessed the destruction of everything, including the six other heavenly palaces.

The Kun Lun Realm must have been one of those broken pieces of the shattered heavenly palaces and imperial courts, and it was also the Kun Lun Realm that carried some of the survived gods who then resided here.

However, no one knew precisely how the Kun Lun Realm was connected to the Ancestral Star or how it was possible for someone to enter the Kun Lun Realm from the Ancestral Star.

And were the celestial and demonic races in Ancestral Star from the Kun Lun Realm as well, or were they from someplace else?

The most crucial point was that those gods that had survived might have seen the existence that destroyed everything back then. Did they leave behind anything that may give some insight into what happened?

Zhong Yue then continued thinking, Besides, is the Kun Lun Realm somewhere around the fragments of the Six Paths Reincarnation? Will someone be able to find the broken pieces? And is the Western Mother Empire related to Reincarnation Monarch? How does one cultivate the sixth wheel in Kun Lun, and would one be able to know more about what happened back then?

There were too many questions in his mind that need to be answered, but Tian Wu God was not here; thus, his questions would remain as such.

Suddenly, the eight golden Golden Hous suddenly murmured to each other, "Si Er, what do you think we should do when we come across the enemies of our master? Our master can only barely manage to fend off Huo Zheng and Wu Ming. He won\'t die, but getting injured is inevitable, and if we happen to encounter another god, we will all be dead."

"In my opinion, we shouldn\'t be pulling this stupid carriage anymore. It is way too flamboyant and is basically a beacon for our enemies."

"That\'s right. We should keep this carriage away and disguise ourselves."

Without hesitation, they put their thoughts into action, and the eight golden Golden Hous retracted their wings, and in no time, eight tiny tigers appeared in front of Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er.

Like every tiger cub, they all appeared to very adorable, and they all had a pair of tiny wings on their shoulders that shone with a bright golden light.

And like every girl, Qiu Jin\'er failed to resist the adorable charm of their appearance as she stroked one of their wings.

The Golden Hou felt good as well, and immediately, the other seven all surrounded the young lady\'s legs like kittens.

No wonder Tian Wu God didn’t punish these little guys.

Zhong Yue did not know if he should laugh or cry, and he thought, But they are all Heavenly Dharma level! They would be elder level Qi Practitioners in Swords Gate, and how can they not take care of their image? If the Heavenly Dharma level beasts in the Ancestral Star are that cute as well, I too, want to take in a bunch of them…

“Stop! Stop! Be serious!” said the eldest tiger cub.

It stopped its chubby companions and said seriously, "We have important matters to attend to, we should discuss later when we arrive at the Western Mother Empire!"

They then all hid the carriage away. These Golden Hous previously had no names, and when Tian Wu named them, he simply called: Tian Yi, Tian Er, Tian San, Tian Si, Tian Wuu, Tian Lu, Tian Qi, and Tian Ba.

“My senior martial brother and senior martial sister, let’s go!”

Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er then flew up into the skies with them. Although their speed was fast as well, it was still not as comfortable as sitting in the carriage, and the eight tiny chubby Golden Hous flew around the two of them as they played with each other.

Suddenly, a chubby Golden Hou took out a zither, put it on its lap while the others seven looked at Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er as they flew forward.

Then, a zither melody could be heard, and as soon as the zither was played, the Golden Hous all started singing.

Qiu Jin\'er and Zhong Yue\'s face immediately turned red upon hearing their song; this song was about a young couple that got married and their passionate nightly activities.

As someone who had yet to experience such things, their hearts thumped quickly, but thankfully, these little guys were not serious at all; after a while, they returned to playing with each other.

When the sun had set, they all finally arrived at the Western Mother Empire, and when Zhong Yue looked forward, he felt countless incredibly strong presences ahead; as an empire that had been here for such a long time, there were a huge number of strong individuals that spread throughout the empire.

And all of these were like entering a mythical world for Zhong Yue.

Suddenly, a godly aura spread across the skies on top of them. Then, luxurious-looking ships and carriages appeared in their sights along with various instruments; there were a few gods that rushed toward a celestial mountain as well.

The celestial mountain they headed to was like a pillar that stood up so high into the skies that the clouds could only cover half of it. Swords Gate Mountain was nothing when compared to this celestial mountain.

And on the celestial mountain, a mighty and solemn divine ray shone, lighting up the skies. Celestial palaces could be faintly seen within the skies.

"That mountain is the Kun Lun Mountain, the famous sacred mountain of our Kun Lun Realm and also the prohibited area of the Western Mother Empire\'s heavenly palace," said Tian Yi.

He then said again, “We should not cause any troubles today! We are here to make our master proud, not to embarrass him!”

“Can we steal and secretly eat something?”

"It is not stealing if we are not caught, so we will not embarrass our master."

"What if we run into our enemies? Can we smack them?"

"I hear that there are godly herbs in the Peach Garden of Western Mother Empire!"

“Can we insult those ugly looking people?”

"When we see someone that looks delicious, can we eat them?"

One after another, the seven other Golden Hous kept talking, continually firing questions at Tian Yi. He soon lost his patience and silenced all of them with a shout.

Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er were speechless, and they all felt pity for Tian Wu God; this god must be very young with a bright future ahead of him, but who would\'ve thought these eight jokers would become such headaches for Tian Wu God\'s.

However, although they were troublemakers, it was hard to stay angry at them, so long as they did not taunt you.

Along with the eight Golden Hous, Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er flew towards the Kun Lun Mountain, and it took a very long time until they reached half-way up the mountain. They were both shocked, and they thought, Just how tall is this mountain?

It took them another half day to reach the summit, and Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er were even more amazed by what they saw; palaces where the gods once resided in were everywhere, and even after such a long time, the godly aura has yet to disperse.

These buildings were the places within which the gods handled everything of the Six Paths Galaxy and maintained the operation of the first Six Paths World.

Just by standing here, Zhong Yue felt that he saw the timeline of 10,000 years slowly flow past in front of his eyes; he thought that he had entered the history of 10,000 years ago upon entering the heavenly palace.

“This is the Western Mother’s heavenly palace.”

Tian Yi then said, "We will go and take a look at the Nacre Lake and wait for our master there! Once we get there, we have to act more cautiously and be on our best behavior. We must not make any more enemies for our master!"

"Master still hasn\'t arrived yet, can it be that he was beaten to death by someone?" Tian Si asked as he blinked his eyes.

Ignoring Tian Si, Tian Yi looked at Zhong Yue and asked, "By the way, Senior Martial Brother Zhong, where are you planning to go?"

"We are planning to go to the Nacre Lake as well," answered Zhong Yue.

Then, they all departed and not long later, a golden lake appeared in front of them. Clouds could be seen floating on the lake, some of these clouds looked like stalactites, and they appeared in various colors as they floated on top of the lake.

And on top of these clouds was a platform made purely out of clouds. There were jade railings around the platform, and there were also stairs made of clouds that allowed people to get up the platform.

There were already countless Qi Practitioners from various clans on top of the platform, making the atmosphere very lively.

Zhong Yue and the others got up the platform, and when scanned the surroundings, they realized the Qi Practitioners\' presences were nothing like those from the Ancestral Star; those from the Kun Lun Realm all carried an incredibly powerful presence, and if they were in Ancestral Star, they would all on par with hallmasters and elder level!

Besides, they were all disciples of gods. At the same level, they would often be much stronger than those from the Ancestral Star due to the greater wealth of resource that had access to!

I never thought that there would be such a huge difference between Kun Lun Realm and the Ancestral Star.

Just as Zhong Yue\'s mind mulled on this realization, the eight tiny tiger cubs rolled around the platform, and suddenly, a scream was heard. Tian Yi then glared at Tian Qi and snarled, "Spit him out!"

Tian Qi innocently blinked his eyes with his puffed-out mouth that obviously had something inside it, but Tian Yi shouted again, "Spit it out! I saw what you did there!"

Tian Qi then reluctantly opened up his mouth and spat out a Qi Practitioner from some race. As he was spat out, he stood there with his clothes soaked with Tian Qi\'s saliva, and he did not manage to react in time.

"This senior martial brother here, I am very sorry for what my brother did, I have failed to keep an eye on him… San Er, if you ever do this again, I will punish you at any costs!"

Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin\'er were speechless as they stood at the side, and Qiu Jin\'er whispered, "Senior martial brother, I think we should stay away from these eight tiger cubs…"

Zhong Yue immediately agreed to Qiu Jin\'er\'s suggestion, and he thought, I thought I was a troublemaker, but these eight guys are even worse than me! I think it\'s better for us to gather information on Chi Xue\'s and Ying Nu\'s location first. Chi Xue arrived at the South Barren with the Phoenix clan\'s Qi Practitioners, so if we find the Qi Practitioners from the Feng Clan, we will be able to find Chi Xue and the others.
