Chapter 114 – Six-Eyed Celestial Being

The skiff traveled in the air, a river of water flowed through the sky, formed from a Qi Practitioner’s psyche, lifting the skiff and propelling it forwards.

The skiff was not a soul weapon, it was just an ordinary skiff. But for it to be able to fly in the air was because of the Qi Practitioner-psyche formed water that sustained its flight through the air.

Zhong Yue did not know any water manipulation skills. Among the three of them, Yu Xuanji was the one most proficient in manipulating water flow, the man’s attainments in the art of water manipulation were even more profound than the Shui Tu Clan’s. His true form should be a fish monster, one that was native to the water.

Gu Xia City was very far away from Xian Kong Saint City, about sixty thousand miles away. The Eastern Barren was bigger than the Great Wilderness, after all, it was an indisputable fact that the humans were weaker than the monsters, naturally, their territories would differ greatly in sizes accordingly.

The skiff flew in the air, along the way Zhong Yue glanced down to be met with the sights of mountains towering like armies of soldiers. Where there were mountains, there would be monsters. Many of the mountains were wreathed with monstrous clouds, the air of which was thick and heavy, those would be the places where the monster Qi Practitioners resided.

The skiff was not high in altitude as Yu Xuanji was afraid of attracting the thunderbolts in the lightning zone of the upper atmosphere. To the Qi Practitioners, the upper air lightning zone was very precarious, the stronger your cultivation base, the fiercer the thunderbolts the Yuan Shen would attract. a split second of inattentiveness could lead to a fatal death of the Yuan Shen.

Monsters and humans are different, human Qi Practitioners typically congregate together in Swords Gate while the monsters are scattered across the land and live apart on their own. And the monster Qi Practitioners also number greater than the human Qi Practitioners.

Zhong Yue squinted his eyes, in his psyche ocean, his soul visualized the Sui Sovereign. Quietly, he converged the spirit of the Great Sun Golden Crow into his left eye. Although he was lost in cultivation, he never forgot to keep his guard up.

Whether it was Yu Xuanji or Hu Qimei, they were not kind to have good and honorable hearts. If he ever were to ever completely submerge himself in cultivation, he would risk getting assaulted by them to die without even knowing how he was killed!

Yu Xuanji and Hu Qimei were also vigilant against one another. On the surface, they maintained a warm and gentle smile on their faces, but behind their facades of amiability, their hands were clenched in readiness to defend against any ambush.

The incident of Beast God Ridge, two monster island lords led the crowds into the Beast God Ridge and over a thousand of Qi Practitioners died instantly. I thought that the monster race would be heavily affected from that, but who else would have thought that there are still so many monster Qi Practitioners wandering about. The ones that suffered the greatest losses would only be the Sulphur Island and Jinxiu Island. And as for the entirety of the Eastern Barren, such losses would not be enough to impair their overall strength to any significant degree.

Rays flashes in Zhong Yue’s eyes as he thought to himself, The monsters are so much stronger than us humans. Thankfully, their infighting and power struggles monster race are equally intense. They are like a sheet of loose sand. One saint, three islands, four keeps and six cities – govern their own lands and each have conflicting interest against one another. Otherwise, if the monsters can come together and merge forces as one, I’m afraid that the Great Wilderness would be crushed by them easily. This generation’s City Lord of Xian Kong Saint City is said to be greatly skilled and proficient in strategy. It just might be that he would be able to merge the strengths of the monster race together. Meanwhile, the headmaster of our Swords Gate is approaching the twilight of his life, death may be bestowed upon him at any time now. The future of the Great Wilderness worries me a lot….

Converging the spirit of the Great Sun Golden Crow into his left eye was very arduous, it required an exceptionally strong soul. In reaching the level of Rebirth, the coalescence of the soul and spirit was done with the spirit as the dominant driving force, but converging the Great Sun Golden Crow into his left was delegating that leading role to his soul.

Having the soul as the dominant lead demanded an abnormal strength behind it. At least it would have to not be inferior to the Great Sun Golden Crow, and this was the hardest of all. Zhong Yue nearly depleted every morsel of energy he had in his psyche ocean and he even instigated the beast god inner core to discharge more essence to facilitate the process. Only when his soul was brimming with the energy from all possible sources, could it barely be made strong enough to stand alongside in power with the Great Sun Golden Crow.

In addition, his atman was not the three-legged bird-winged celestial being anymore, he had visualized the Sui Sovereign and morphed into the dragon-headed snake-tailed humanoid figure of the Sui Sovereign, so that he could augment his soul and push its strength to the highest peak it could possibly go to!

“Brat Yue, whether it be the moon spirit or the sun spirit, they are all external powers coalescing with the soul, and the coalescence is usually done with the spirit as the dominant lead. But the soul is the root of the Yuan Shen, when the soul gets stronger, so will the Yuan Shen. That’s why you will have to let the soul rule over the spirit, and not the other way around!”

Xin Huo then continued, “Visualizing the Sui Sovereign has incredible effects in strengthening your soul and Yuan Shen, something that the sun spirit and moon spirit can never be able to compare to. Converging the sun spirit and moon spirit into your eyes, to become the master of your spirits’ powers … this will be your capital in surpassing the others!”

Zhong Yue mustered every vestige of available energy he had and pulled his Great Sun Golden Crow into his soul’s left eye, trying his best in converging the Golden Crow spirit’s power. After two or three days, in the left eye of his soul, an aureate halo was faintly glowing, it was like a golden pupil.

He had already converged most of the Great Sun Golden Crow’s power into his soul’s left eye, and the left eye now had dual pupils – a black pupil enshrouding around another golden pupil. And in it, a three-legged celestial being was faintly distinguishable; its wings were flared out like the totem patterns of a sun.

Meanwhile, his mortal body’s left eye was also transmuting and the same exact three-legged celestial being appeared in it. It was very fantastical and astounding.

Yu Xuanji was steering the skiff and failed to notice anything at all, but Hu Qimei saw the image in his left eye, her heart thumped in shock, not knowing what kind of profound art he was cultivating.

Another two days passed by, and Zhong Yue had finally completely converged the Great Sun Golden Crow into his left eye. and he then started to work on coalescing the moon spirit.

After coalescing the moon spirit, I will then have the Sun Moon Twin Spirits, I don’t dare to boast much, but my cultivation base will at least increase twofold!

Before coalescing the moon spirit with the soul, he would need to adjust the soul so that it would fit more with the moon spirit. During this period of time, he must not be interrupted by the sun spirit, this was also why Xin Huo insisted on him converging the sun spirit into the left eye first.

When the Qi Practitioners cultivated to the level of Rebirth, they would attain a great leap in prowess, whereas for Zhong Yue to advance into the level of Rebirth two separate times, even more so with the exalted sun and moon spirits – the benefits he would receive could be imagined.

Behind his soul, the bright moon emanated moonlight like a washing river, it flowed into his soul and body ceaselessly, nourishing his psyche and psyche ocean.

After a long time, the moon spirit in his psyche ocean transmuted into its second form – the Star Moon Jade Toad. Its six eyes shone bright like moons, and its gaze was akin to focused moonlight, shining and nourishing his soul, mortal body and psyche ocean.

And after a period of time, the third form of the moon spirit emerged, but it was even more peculiar than the sun spirit, it was a three-legged celestial being with six eyes. Its countenance was comprised of six eyes with no nose. It stood atop the psyche ocean with its three legs!

Only with the emergence of the third form could the coalescence of spirit and soul be done.

In comparison to the first time he coalesced the sun spirit, his soul was much stronger now. He was tiptoeing on the precipice of life and death in his initial foray into the soul and spirit coalescence with the sun spirit. But now, with the greatly augmented strength of his soul, it would be a smooth ride.

Another two more days, then I can coalesce the moon spirit and advance into Rebirth for the second time!

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt two surges of strong auras following by the sounds of powers clashing into one another. Almost simultaneously, Yu Xuanji and Hu Qimei also felt the auras, and they quickly looked over.

In the mountains, monstrous Qi billowed vigorously, two monster Qi Practitioners stood amid the monstrous clouds. They appeared to be battling in the mountains, one of them donned in an ocean blue colored robe, her beautiful hair fluttered in the wind as she manipulated a gourd-shaped soul weapon. Monstrous Qi gushed out from the gourd and amid the overcast monstrous Qi. A multi-armed celestial being with only its upper half body emerged, its arms were miles long and in which were grasped different soul weapons whisking away in a ferocious flurry of attacks trying to slash and lacerate her opponent ceaselessly … it was astoundingly strong!

Meanwhile, the other monster Qi Practitioner cast out his own atman. Clearly, he had his own fortunes as well, the spirit he manifested was not one of the monster gods typically worshipped by the monster race, but rather, the spirit of a demon god – a demon spirit!

The spirit of demon god had four heads and eight arms, on every palm was an eye, and the heads only had a mouth and were devoid of eyes and ears.

The demon god spirit was sixty feet high, standing behind the black-robed monster Qi Practitioner. It was refined to the point where it almost materialized into a physical object. It opened its arms and swung them around, whenever the fingers spread out and the palms opened, a powerful ray would be blasted from the demon eyes sitting in its palms!

Meanwhile, the blue-robed Qi Practitioner had an exquisite soul weapon and manipulated it to manifest the totem carvings in the gourd into the multi-armed celestial being. The two Qi Practitioners fought a bone-rattling battle!

Zhong Yue scrutinized the battle and the two combatants carefully. His heart stiffened up, these two monster Qi Practitioners were the ones who had clearly gone through countless battles, this was clearly exhibited in their exceptional combat abilities that were not inferior to Yan Lisan’s in the least. Even more so, the demon spirit Qi Practitioner was even slightly stronger than Yan Lisan!

“Hehe, it’s Qing You and Yu Kun of the Qing Ming City. They are from the same city, the same young and formidable experts of the younger generations of Qing Ming City, who knew they would end up fighting among themselves already.”

Yu Xuanji squinted his eyes and glanced furtively at Zhong Yue and Hu Qimei before saying, “The two of them are concentrating in their battle. If we were to suddenly emerge and ambush them, we will have two fewer formidable opponents to fight against! Qimei, Brother Long, I’m steering the skiff, I don’t have any extra hands, you two should kill them!”

Hu Qimei was noncommittal while Zhong Yue smiled and said, “Brother Xuaji, Qimei, the two of you have seen my prowess in Gu Xia City, but I haven’t seen any of yours. Although we are joining hands, the alliance is contingent on the strength of the people who make up it.”

Right now, he seemed to be absolutely normal on the surface, but he was actually on the crux period of coalescing the moon spirit. It would be fine if it was just a simple and shallow battle, but if he were to engage into such a blood-curdling fight, he would not be able to reserve any more strength in condensing his moon spirit.

Hence, if he was the one to engage, he would have to reveal to Yu Xuanji and Hu Qimei that he was at the critical period of cultivation. They would not hesitate in making short work of him, reaping the lives of himself, Qing You, and Yu Kun together.

In addition, if he were to engage in a fight with those expert cultivators, all the effort he invested into coalescing the moon spirit would be thrown down the drain, and he would even suffer from an impairment of his cultivation base.

“That said, Brother Long Yue is examining me?”

Rays flashed in Yu Xuanji’s eyes, he gazed at Hu Qimei and asked, “What does Qimei think of it?”

“I’m also very keen to warm myself up by tidying the remains of a few formidable opponents before reaching Xian Kong Saint City,” Hu Qimei flicked her ears while smiling.

“Alright!”

Yu Xuanji leaped out from the skiff, monstrous clouds billowed up behind him, shrouding and concealing him within. The waters beneath the skiff also disappeared.

Seeing that the skiff was plummeting down the sky, a sudden surge of flame emerged out of nowhere and it was as if the skiff had grown a pair of fire wings. It fluttering in the air, lifting it up. And yet, the skiff was not set alight in flames, instead continued to move with Zhong Yue’s dextrous manipulation of the fire.

Yu Xuanji’s heart stiffened up, The fire and water don’t come together as one, this Long Yue’s attainments in fire manipulation are not any weaker than my attainments in the water manipulation!

Visualizing the Golden Crow wings would not affect Zhong Yue greatly, he gazed at Hu Qimei who was still on the skiff, smiled and said, “Qimei, please.”

Hu Qimei chortled and walked out of the skiff with her lute, she licked her lips with her tongue and said, “Brother Xuanji, Qing You is also a woman, I’ll kill Qing You while you handle Yu Kun!”

Zhong Yue looked over but nothing came into his eyes, Yu Xuanji had suddenly disappeared to be replaced with white and fluffy clouds. All of a sudden, the sky turned gloomy, lightning flashed and thunders roared, and the water started drizzling down into a light rain.

Zhong Yue searched around, and his heart palpitated in shock, Yu Xuanji was nowhere to be found, it was as if he had turned invisible!
