He did not want anyone to recognize his arts and techniques through his disciples, so he taught them different arts. Yet, these arts contained the core of the Innate Mountain Dao’s fortification! From the endless transformations in his disciples’ arts, I can trace and identify the core of the Innate Mountain Dao!
This also meant that I can start from his disciples’ souls and find the Innate Mountain Dao through searching their souls!
Zhong Yue blinked his eyes and thought, The Innate Mountain Dao I identify later is probably Yuan Ya Deity King’s innate Dao. As one infinitely close to becoming a Dao God, his ken is far greater than mine!
When he was drunk, he put most of Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples into eternal sleep, laying bodies everywhere, claiming lives as he walked. Right now, apart from a few whose soul faded, most of them were trapped in his Six Paths Reincarnation, turned into wraiths walking on the star bridge.
Among those that Zhong Yue knew, Feng Xiaozhong was the one who was most knowledgable about the soul. Thus, he managed to learn a little about extracting memories from it after being exposed to Feng Xiaozhong for quite some time.
Yuan Ya Deity King will return any time soon, I must not tarry anymore!
Zhong Yue looked at the bodies lying everywhere around Innate Dao Mountain and couldn’t help but have the chills for he had slaughtered most of Yuan Ya Deity King’s disciples and clan members!
What he did was considered a great humiliation, a great hatred that could never be washed away. Though Yuan Ya Deity King cared little for these disciples and his clan members, he still needed to maintain his reputation and name.
When the Deity King was enraged, lives were bound to be lost, blood was sure to be bled and one would wish to have a swift death.
Staying right here was looking for death.
Just as Zhong Yue was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a different looking divine palace in the Dao Mountain. When he was drunk on the massacre, he did not notice that there was actually a palace standing there.
It was only when his mind became clear did he see this palace hidden deep within the mountain.
Hmmm, judging from the strict defense around, it’s probably a good place, perhaps the survivors are all hiding there?
The thousand-winged ancient ship flapped its wings and flew towards the palace, but just when the ship moved an inch, the entire Innate Dao Mountain seemingly struck by a unique change and the palace disappeared.
It was an abnormal phenomenon formed by Innate Mountain Dao, when looking at this mountain from different angles, the entire mountain’s landscape looked the same but once changed into another position, the landscape also changed.
This change wasn’t just changes triggered by positions but changes that were realistic!
Which meant that this mountain had endless detail in it!
A truly authentic transformation!
If one walked within this mountain, no matter how quickly they traveled, there was no way of getting out of the mountain, because when they walked, the mountain transformed. When you stood on the surface of the mountain, the other parts of the mountain would be hidden in a complicated dimension. With every step one walked, the person was actually randomly entering a dimension through another dimension, hence, seeing the mountain differently each time!
What a strange Dao and a strange Dao Mountain!
Zhong Yue was awestruck, he opened up his divine third eye, his Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils looked around, searching through the mountain before he located the strange palace again.
Through the Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils, he identified a path leading straight to the palace, moved his ship towards it and the ship started moving around cluelessly; flying from the left to the right, flipping up and down, diving in and out from the dimensions, flying around like a headless fly.
After a few days, the ancient ship finally reached the palace hidden in the Dao Mountain.
The Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils closed upon reaching the palace, the prolonged usage of the pupils had strained Zhong Yue heavily, even when he was in the Deity Emperor level.
The transformations of the Dao Mountain are even more than I expected, the Innate Mountain Dao really is something different! It’s not weaker than the other Daos!
He arrived before the palace and he caught a sweet scent that boosted his spirit.
“Scent of a saint herb!”
The sweet woke Xin Huo and he shouted happily, “Zhong Yue, there is more than just one saint herb here! Let me sniff around, 1,2,3,4… There are at least 8 saint herbs hidden in this place!”
“At least 8?”
The surprised Zhong Yue pushed the gates and intruded into the palace as he burst out laughing, “Yuan Ya Deity King is indeed an ancient one from the Dark Age that is still standing right now! There are actually that many treasures here! Ooof—”
A second after he entered the palace, Zhong Yue flew out with a speed ten times quicker, slamming into the mountain beside the palace. His bones creaked under the impact before he slowly slid down from the mountain, still subdued from the shock he received.
“Did I just got slapped by a saint herb…”
Blood dripped down from his mouth, he happily entered the saint palace and what welcomed him was a herb with seven leaves and seven flowers, its leaves curled into the shape of a fist and slammed onto his face, with extraordinary strength that knocked him out for a second!
Zheng—
11 arms grew out from his armpits, totaling 13 arms that each yielded innate divine weapons made from 13 innate Daos. He walked into the palace again, this time with killing instinct and a grave expression.
The notorious and famed King Yi was slammed on the face by a saint herb, no one would believe to be true if told!
“If you dice it up, the saint herb will lose its efficacy.” Xin Huo reminded after seeing the killing intent in Zhong Yue.
The speechless Zhong Yue then kept the 13 sabers away and charged into the palace once more. Again, he was welcomed by the same saint herb, far away stood a massive green vine, twining around on a saint tree. Beside the tree was a pond filled with spiritual water, floating on the water was a white lotus and a red fish could be seen leaping out of the water from time to time.
There was also another white crane, the top of its red was red and its vision locked onto that red fish, seemingly wanting to eat him. On top of this crane was a little child, standing only about 3 inches tall, and hanging right above the child’s head was the branch of the saint tree and a golden snake slithering around that particular branch, flickering its tongue as it looked at the child like a prey.
Zhong Yue charged forward without giving a damn and grabbed towards the saint herb with seven leaves and nine flowers. But just as he revealed his hostility, the little child charged right at Zhong Yue. Riding on the white crane, the red fish flew up with the white lotus in its mouth, and the saint tree unrooted itself as the golden snake slithered towards Zhong Yue!
Beng—
To Zhong Yue’s dismay and embarrassment, he was sent flying out again, slamming back onto the mountain. This time, he was covered in bruises all over his face and his torso.
“Xin Huo, give me your promise that the future inheritors will never know about this!” begged Zhong Yue suddenly as he wiped away the blood on his face.
Xin Huo nodded repeatedly and promised, “Don’t worry, no one will know about this. There will only be you and I who know about this!”
Zhong Yue, however, wasn’t convinced, no matter how he tried to believe Xin Huo’s trustworthiness, he still found Xin Huo to be unreliable as he thought, This unreliable Xin Huo will definitely expose this and my image in the future generations’ eyes will be tainted…”
“The saint herb with seven leaves and nine flowers must be the Nine Daos Flower, in each and the flower and leaf are an innate Dao. The tree should be the Dao Attainment Tree, which is also a saint herb. They say that the Dao Attainment Fruits it produces can increase in the affinity in one person. That white crane is also another type of saint herb, it looks like a crane but in truth, it is called the Red Top Wood Scent Flesh Ling Zhi, one that could prolong lifespan. It is in the league right below the ancient Tree of Life. That golden snake over there, is the Dao fruit grew from the Long Green Dao Teng, that red fish is Red Pellet Saint Herb and that white lotus is Feathering Spirit Lotus!”
Like an encyclopedia, Xin Huo had already revealed the information of these saint herbs to Zhong Yue, “That child riding on the crane is most likely Xuan Yellow Dao Spirit. Hmmm, strange, I smell 8 types of saint herbs but there are only seven here? There must be another one hidden right here, this scent… so familiar… I must have smelled it somewhere…”
Zhong Yue revealed his Fuxi True Form, the seven light wheels lit up behind his head, seven secret realms opened up entirely and with raging battle intent, he charged back into the saint palace. Previously, he was defenseless before the saint herbs and it was a tremendous humiliation to the famous King Yi. This time, he no longer came unprepared, the Seven Paths Reincarnation wide open, him in his strongest form and determined to obtain the seven saint herbs.
Yet this time, before he could do anything, the seven saint herbs had already started running, diving deep into the saint palace and in an instant, they all disappeared.
This left Zhong Yue in confusion and he did not know how to react.
These saint herbs were not to be underestimated, upon realizing the rapid growth in Zhong Yue’s strength, they knew they were no longer his match and they cunningly escaped.
That red fish even drank the spiritual water in the fond dry, not leaving even a drip of water for him!
“There is the smell of the eighth saint herb, its scent…”
Xin Huo mumbled, “I’ve definitely seen it once… definitely! It’s just so familiar… That’s right! That Wall Painting Flower! Hey baby-maker, look around for something like a painting!”
“Xin Huo, can you stop calling me baby-maker?”
Zhong Yue grunted and looked around, only to find empty walls everywhere, there was no drawing and no carvings. He looked at his feet and the ground was also clean, except that there were a few potholes, supposedly formed when the saint herbs rooted themselves on the ground.
He looked into the skies, where there was only the sky, star streams, long star rivers, lightning that spanned million miles, starry clouds, it was a beautiful scene of the galaxy.
“From here I can even see the galaxy… Wait up! When I was outside, I clearly saw a roof on this palace!”
Zhong Yue ascended into the air, the seven light wheels whirled around, shrouding the galaxy and right away, the beautiful galaxy, the stars, star rivers, lightning all disappeared, leaving only a huge flower on the top of the ceiling.
This flower had two huge leaves, billions of roots like legs and it ran, just like a human!
“You are not trying to run, are you? After entering my Seven Paths Reincarnation!”
Zhong Yue burst out laughing and shockingly discovered the Wall Painting Flower’s roots pierced through his reincarnations before started to expand outside, attempting to escape!
“Stop dreaming!”
The Seven Paths Reincarnation’s strength was pushed to the peak, spreading out like a spider web, with that, no matter how hard the flower tried to run, it merely entered a reincarnation secret realm to another, and the cycle continued.
“An ultimate saint herb!”
Xin Huo shouted excitedly, “I’ve seen it before, right in the chaotic years in between Fire Order Era and Earth Order Era! I saw it at Yuan Ya Deity King’s! Wall Painting Flower is Yuan Ya Deity King’s symbiotic flower!”
