Chapter 1103: How To Know If I Am Loyal

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Although Pan Ji was quick, it was still a dozen days later when they arrived at the Heaven Breaching Fortress. Mo Yin and Consort Tian Si were hiding in his Yuan Shen secret realms.

From afar, the battle was still ongoing. Cries of war could be heard, and the river was red with the blood of fallen soldiers.

The trio who arrived later was slightly relieved by what they saw, We’re not too late!

But when Pan Ji got closer to the fortress, their hearts turned cold.

“It’s too late….”

What lay before them shattered their hopes, the Heaven Court’s army was completely separated from each other, surrounded by the enemies. The Xian Tian Royal Guards unleashed a one-sided slaughtering, piercing through the Heaven Court’s army ranks, preventing them from grouping up again and decimating them.

Time to time, warhorns sounded, erasing the final chance for the Heaven Court’s army from escaping; the warhorn was always a double-edged sword; it may be able to boost morale, but when the morale breached the appropriate level, the soldiers would lose their cool and they would entirely be driven by zealous fighting spirit.

“It’s all gone…. Gone!”

Mo Yin pointed towards the man blowing the warhorn and said coldly, “Who is he, why is he siding with the enemy!”

Pan Ji squinted to have a clearer view and shook his head, “Seems like a Deity Emperor from Bi Xie Clan, could it be that this clan had some unpleasant events with our Heaven Court that they want to eliminate us right now.”

Consort Tian Si, on the other hand, was shocked, she quickly messaged Deity Emperor Bi Xie and Deity Emperor Bi Xie left right away. After seeing Deity Emperor Bi Xie leave the battlefield, Consort Tian Si said, “Probably someone King Yi pleaded for help. This King Yi has many friends across the world and the Deity Emperor Bi Xie blowing the horn is probably a friend King Yi made during the meeting.”

Mo Yin sighed softly and said, “With this major defeat, the lower stream of the Heavenly River is lost. Clan Master Pan Ji, head towards the State of Heavenly River at once and prepare for a battle.”

Pan Ji nodded and left quickly.

With the absence of Deity Emperor Bi Xie, the Heaven Court’s army who lost their cool under the warhorn’s influence regained their senses. But when they looked around, they horridly discovered themselves cornered by the enemies, surrounded by the bodies of their comrades, which allowed fear to consume them and they escaped right away.

Lou Zhengshi, Celestial Heavenly King, Demon Heavenly King, the four armies’ generals, Ting Daoji and the others led the soldiers to breached the encirclement but instead of forcing them back into the encirclement, Zhong Yue ordered his men to tail behind the enemies and pierce through the enemy ranks whenever they had the chance, like a swarm of sharks taking a bite off the whale whenever they had the chance.

Yet, Lou Zhengshi and the others had no other way of defending themselves. All they could do was rush back to the Heavenly River as soon as they could. Behind, Zhong Yue led his men after the enemies while the Yinkang Navy flew across the river with the warships

Mo Yin and Consort Tian Si arrived with a tiny ship and were welcomed aboard by Lou Zhensghi, who embarrassingly said, “I did not foresee King Yi’s sudden return. We only managed to salvage less than 20,000,000 men.”

Mo Yin shook his head, “It is normal to triumph and experience defeat in war, it is our fault that King Yi escaped from Consort Tian Si and myself. He survived the encirclement of the five monarch spirits and this is not what I expected either. You are not to be blamed, it’s just that King Yi’s might is stronger than I thought.”

Lou Zhengshi said, “Without that Deity Emperor Bi Xie, the casualties would be lower! This is a shame for all of us! This Deity Emperor Bi Xie drove us all into madness with his warhorn, stalling us so great that we missed the greatest opportunity to escape! Who would’ve seen this coming, to think that there is actually someone like that under King Yi! He almost wiped us all out!”

Mo Yin too, was confused and he said, “Warhorns are used to boost the morale, bestowing the men with power. But King Yi used it on us, which I have to admit is really an impressive move.”

Hearing this, Consort Tian Si’s face flustered a little but she kept this away from the others.

Deity Emperor Bi Xie was an ally of hers, they both served the same lord but they were leaders. They were experts in stirring chaos, only walking within the shadows without exposing themselves.

Back then, it was exactly both of them that caused chaos to descend onto the world.

And this time, during the campaign to kill Zhong Yue, Consort Tian Si went to Mo Yin while Deity Emperor Bi Xie stayed in the dark.

Deity Emperor Bi Xie’s intention was to help the Heaven Court fight King Yi, but his good intention had inadvertently helped the wrong side, thought a speechless Consort Tian Si.

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue led the army in pursuit, the Heaven Court army entirely ignored the pursuers as they focused on fleeing, though forced to abandon a few warships, they still managed to escape.

Mo Yin and the others looked back and saw the Yinkang Navy returning to its camp, showing no signs of pursuing to the end.

“We’ve lost our grounds in the lower stream of the river. The only option left is to set up camp in the State of Heavenly River and prepare ourselves against King Yi!”

Mo Yin continued, “I already sent Clan Master Pan Ji to get ready. When we arrive, we will regroup, report back to the Heaven Court and request His Majesty’s help by sending the Nine-Five.”

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue’s army returned after hunting down the remaining Heaven Court’s army, which took them a week to clear them off.

In this battle, the Heaven Court’s soldiers, including the Heavenly River Navy Fleet, four Heavenly Kings, four armies, Huangting and Dating monarch races, they were all entirely crippled, almost wiped out completely.

The Heaven Court had lost 10 armies, out of the 36 armies, and they were all erased by Zhong Yue!

With the triumph, Zhong Yue returned to the Heaven Breaching Fortress with his soldiers and moved the entire fortress right into the camps in the Heavenly River, replacing the Heavenly River Navy Fleet as the new owner of the camps. He then started awarding his commanders, generals and the others, each according to their performance.

With this victory, King Yi’s fame spread across the continent and once again shook the entire universe!

Previously, Mu Xiantian recklessly swapped King Zi Guang in to replace Zhong Yue, which raised internal conflicts within the many ancient races in Imperial Star, the fortress’ fate stalled and after King Zi Guang’s great defeat on the Heavenly River, the Heaven Breaching Fortress’ fate had reached the rock bottom.

But with Zhong Yue’s return and the great victory under his lead, he forced the Heaven Court’s army to the middle stream, restoring the fate of his army, even making it exceed its previous level!

Yet surprisingly, instead of giving chase, Zhong Yue remained at the lower stream, showing no sign of attacking the Heaven Court, not even mentioning it.

Meanwhile, messengers from the many races in the Imperial Star arrived at Zhong Yue’s camp, some came with the intention of aiding King Yi in his mission, some offered treasures to ensure their safety, others proposed a marriage with Mu Xiantian’s child. The Heaven Breaching Fortress was on the verge of falling, which had the many races reluctant to walk too close to the fortress, but with Zhong Yue turning the table around, the many races hurriedly came towards Zhong Yue like sharks that smelled blood.

Zhong Yue welcomed them with open arms, reporting the victory to Mu Xiantian and at the same time, asking for forgiveness for executing the 19 princes and princesses.

Not long later, Mu Xiantian sent words back to Zhong Yue, praising him for the victory, saying absolutely nothing about the execution and summoning King Zi Guang back to take care of the rear while leaving Zhong Yue in charge of the frontline.

Mu Xiantian then had Tai Feng, Long Zhi, Yi Tianjun, Nu Fang, Jiao Teng, Duo Yin, Fu Ya, Ling Zheng, and the others each lead an army, with Zhong Yue as the center of operation and the eight Imperial Emperors to assist him.

These Imperial Emperors each led an army but ever since arriving at the Imperial Star and serving King Zi Guang, tasted a great defeat under his lead, there were not many men left in their armies.

Now, the order from Mu Xiantian to have them each lead an army was to dilute Zhong Yue’s power to prevent him from getting out of control.

Zhong Yue, however, was not bothered at all by this. He knew that Mu Xiantian would not be comfortable with Zhong Yue leading a massive army, but as long as Zhong Yue still controlled his real power, whatever Mu Xiantian did would not hurt him at all.

If Mu Xiantian tried to intervene in Zhong Yue’s real forces, Zhong Yue would’ve then made a scene.

Then, the many races that came surrendering to Mu Xiantian were then distributed among the army of Tai Feng and the others.

After that, Zhong Yue stayed at the lower stream of the Heavenly River, speaking nothing of attacking and at the back, King Zi Guang organized the races perfectly.

At the middle stream, Mo Yin attempted a few invasions, all to no avail. Like Zhong Yue, he too spoke nothing of attacking the Heaven Breaching Fortress. All he did was focus on managing the State of Heavenly River.

“Mister Mo, King Yi is gathering the luminant gold in the world to forge new weapons!”

Scouts came reporting in, “The Heaven Breaching Fortress is turned into a sleepless fortress, divine fire raged all night long to melt the gold to forge an unknown weapon.”

Hearing this, Mo Yin was a little puzzled and he decided to check it out for himself, he summoned Lou Zhengshi and both of them arrived somewhere close to the lower stream. They watched from afar as the furnace in the fortress kept burning all day and all night as endless celestial beings refined the gold.

The star water and light in the Heavenly River was also harvested into the gold refining.

“Such scale… This is not the forging of some ordinary weapons, it looks more like the scene when King Yi forged that strange-looking disc.”

Mo Yin managed to catch a glimpse before the Yinkang Navy discovered him but thanks to the speed of the ship he used, he escaped effortlessly before the Yinkang Navy could surround him.

And in the fortress, Zhong Yue was forging the second Treasure of Heavenly Daos, the fourth Drawing of Heavenly Daos, Tian Yin.

Tian Yin suppressed all fate, symbolizing a supreme power, one who possessed this item would be immune to Mo Yin’s ability to weaken or even rob fate. Unlike the Tian Pan that had no power, Tian Yin was terrifyingly powerful, and once forged, it would be nothing less than a monarch weapon!

The most crucial point was that Tian Yin was forged by Zhong Yue, with the efforts and understanding Zhong Yue had over the weapon, it would become even more powerful in Zhong Yue’s hands!

The process of forging Tian Yin was also a new lesson for Zhong Yue, allowing him to peek more into the secrets of Heavenly Dao.

Old Man Xuan and Qi, on the other hand, cultivated the monarch arts through the Tian Pan, reforging the Million Treasures Dao Hammer, Bellow, Furnace, their [Demonic Chant of Reincarnation] became even stronger as they reached a level they had never anticipated they could. As for Zhong Yue, he was confident that he would be able to forge the Tian Yin to a perfect level even without Feng Xiaozhong’s help.

If it weren’t for the insufficient materials, Zhong Yue even wanted to forge all the items recorded in the 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos!

This time, the movements created were even louder than before, billions of gods were present, Old Man Xuan and Qi assisted Zhong Yue, and they both nervously aided Zhong Yue, fearing that the items they created with great effort would explode just like that again.

With each hammering, the Daos in the universe came forth, surging into the Million Treasures Dao Hammer, Dao languages rumbled and as if just like the reincarnation of Heavenly Dao itself, Zhong Yue seemingly had endless power bend under his will!

All of a sudden, something ticked Zhong Yue off and he accurately pinned onto the vein of Heavenly Daos!
