<h4>Chapter 366 - The Transcender</h4>
“Senior Martial Brother Feng also knew of the Demon God Contracted Puppet?”
Zhong Yue was shocked, and he looked at Feng Xiaozhong in admiration.
Those who knew of the Demon God Contracted Puppet were few; even its previous owner, Tu Geer, didn''t know what it was, not even its name. Yet right now, Feng Xiaozhong was able to precisely identify it after only a few seconds, suggesting that he also knew of its uses.
"The Demon God Contracted Puppet was a treasure left by the ancient demon gods in order for them to descend back to the mortal world. I''ve yet to see it anywhere before, but there are plenty of records about it in the demon gods'' graves."
Feng Xiaozhong put down the Demon God Contracted Puppet and said, "This puppet can call upon the demon god three times, granting three wishes to its summoner. After the three wishes are granted, the caller''s soul would then be offered to the demon god. Your Demon God Contracted Puppet has already been used once, leaving just two wishes left. With this, you can use another wish to be able to leave the Eight Barren demon race peacefully. A man of his own principles would not simply take the treasures of the others. I don''t think it would be wise of you to exchange this life-saving treasure just to open the Bloodline Wheel."
Zhong Yue''s admiration for Feng Xiaozhong only grew further upon listening to him, "Senior Martial Brother Feng is right, with this treasure, I can easily walk out of the Eight Barren demon race unharmed. However, I want to have a fair battle with Demon Saint. I won''t take advantage of the treasures and use this Demon God Contracted Puppet to defeat him."
Feng Xiaozhong gazed at him deeply before praising, "You have the heart of a true cultivator. But that shouldn''te as a surprise should it? After all, how could someone be able to be listed on the Godlike Board if they didn''t have such a strong will? So, how do you want to exchange this?"
Rays shed across Zhong Yue’s eyes as he gave his bargains, “My chance for the third wish for your ways of opening the Bloodline Wheel.”
Feng Xiaozhong was amazed by such a lopsided deal, but heughed and said, "After the third wish, the demon god will take away my soul. Yet, you are using it to exchange for my ways to open the sixth wheel? Do you think I don''t know what it is?"
Zhong Yue shook his head, and he said solemnly, "I need the second wish for myself, I can only exchange the third. I know Senior Martial Brother Feng fairly well and I know it isn''t the wishes you want from the Demon God Contracted Puppet, instead, you are eyeing on the demon god''s spirit, right?
Feng Xiaozhong''s eyes lit up in amazement as he smiled, "Continue."
Zhong Yue then smiled in turn, "You can get as many the godly corpses, but their spirits aren''t something one can easily get their hands on. Furthermore, the ordinary demon gods now have little to no secrets in your eyes, but a demon god that can produce a Demon God Contracted Puppet would be way stronger than the ordinary gods. The things that he knows, and secrets that he has … would also be a thousand times greater than those of the ordinary ones. If you can take him down, capture the demon god''s spirit behind this Demon God Contracted Puppet, research him and study him, you can reap even greater benefits from it than the wishes it grants!"
Feng Xiaozhong''s eyes shone even more, and he pped his hands in apuse. Heughed, "Junior Martial Brother Zhong, you really know me well. Yes, you are right. The moment Iid my eyes on this Demon God Contracted Puppet, I was thinking of capturing the demon god. He would be a perfect specimen for my research. As for the wishes, I doubt that even the gods will be able to fulfill my true desires."
Zhong Yue then said solemnly, "Senior Martial Brother Feng, I intend to use the third wish for your ways to open the Bloodline Wheel, what do you say?"
“Deal!”
Feng Xiaozhong said leisurely, "You value the wishes of the Demon God Contracted Puppet the most but to me, its biggest use is for my research. I can capture him for my research. A demon god that can produce a Demon God Contracted Puppet … Hehe, he must be very, very valuable!”
He then lifted his finger and pointed over at Zhong Yue''s forehead. Immediately, a massive surge of information flooded into Zhong Yue''s mind -words, images of the totem patterns, dissected gods, their internal body structures, theposition of their Yuan Shen, and most notably, the pictures that contained the shackled chains!
These shackled chain pictures were the most terrifying of all; they were the seals in the human bloodline, made by the totem patterns!
These pictures showed theplexity of the seals that locked away the powers in the human blood, and when all of these picturese together, they would form six perfect circles that collectively represented the Seal of the Six Paths Reincarnation!
Zhong Yue was stunned, he had once seen these bloodline seals that locked his Fuxi powers away before when he was trying to open the Bloodline Wheel. However, they were just not as many as what Feng Xiaozhong have presented to him!
Following this influx of information was the method that Feng Xiaozhong used to progressively breakthrough the bloodline seals before ultimately opening the Bloodline Wheel!
This information wasrge andplex. Even though Zhong Yue had the confidence that he would eventually be able to attain them all in the future, that would take a long while, most probably tens of years!
On the other hand, Feng Xiaozhong was a true genius, a man that made one feel as if he were the reincarnation of the heaven itself!
Zhong Yue heaved a long breath, he stood up, and Feng Xiaozhong stood up together with him to send him off. Thetter then said, "The day you leave the Eight Barrens is the day I wille to im the Demon God Puppet."
Feng Xiaozhong walked Zhong Yue to the door of the demon pce, and Zhong Yue turned back with his eyes filled withplex emotions. He said softly, "Senior Martial Brother Feng, are you not nning to go back to Swords Gate anymore?"
“No … I will not go back…”
Feng Xiaozhong was also filled with an inexplicable emotion, he shook his head and said, "I can never go back anymore. If I return, my father will die, and none of you will like my existence nor what will happen next after my return…"
As long as he doesn’t go back, as long as he didn’t see his father’s grave with his own eyes, the old headmaster would live forever in his heart. As such, he would be able to remain sane and would not plunge into a permanent state of madness.
Once he had gone back, thest remnants of his sanity would also die along with his father. The old headmaster had banished him just so that he could retain his sanity. With thest sanity he had left, Feng Xiaozhong would still be a living man, and without it, he would turn emotionless like the heaven and earth!"
“Onest thing…”
Feng Xiaozhong was dead silent for a few moments, he then suddenly said, "When you are opening the Bloodline Wheel, you will be able to see the Six Paths of Reincarnation. You have to remember this: When the humans are opening the sixth secret realm, forming the Six Paths Reincarnation in our bodies, a great terror wille for you…"
His calm face distorted as his sanity was starting to shake turbulently, at any point in time now, he would plunge into madness. Feng Xiaozhong was suppressing himself with all his might so as to prevent himself from losing control and his voice husky as he said, "You need to be careful when you see the Six Paths Reincarnation, do not alert the existence that sealed us away, or otherwise, you will be the next madman Feng Xiaozhong! You, look after yourself … Go! LEAVE NOW!"
His sanity was slipping away from his grasp, and he was starting to lose control.
Zhong Yue bowed at Feng Xiaozhong, and he quickly left the demon pce, he boarded the boat in the sky, and he said solemnly, "We will leave now! To the Destion City!"
Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine, and the others quickly moved the boat and left. Rays shed across Tian Mo Concubine''s eyes, and she said softly, "Darling, who is the one that captured Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo?"
“An old friend.”
Zhong Yue stood on the boat, and he looked at the demon pce with a blurred expression. He then suddenly said, "Darlings, I''m guessing that you''ve already notified your ns of the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo''s presence here, am I right?"
Tian Mo Concubine, Ji Xiang Concubine, and Saint Concubine''s countenances stiffened up, and they kept quiet; while the other courtdies were also blushing red in embarrassment, worried and unsettling in their hearts and didn''t know what to say.
All of a sudden, their misterughed and said, "All of you know that I''m actually the human Zhong Shan n member rather than the demon race. It is perfectly normal for you all to do so and I have no ce to say anything. Moreover, this isn''t really a betrayal, you all are just caring for you respective ns, after all, the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo is a huge matter."
Tian Mo Concubine heaved a breath of relief, and she said smilingly, "Thank you for understanding our cause and forgives us."
Zhong Yue nodded, he then smiled back and said, “I understand your causes, but if your ns suffer great damages from this, I hope that you all can forgive me also.”
Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine, Ji Xiang Concubine and the otherdies were dumbfounded, they couldn''t understand what he was talking about, but Zhong Yue didn''t exin further. He kept his sights away from the demon pce and thought, The demon race is really going through a hard timetely. Before this, there was Demon Saint''s Triad Ritual and now, another cmity. The only thing I hope for now is that, after all this ughter, Senior Martial Brother Feng can maintain a longer period of sanity…
After they left, demonic clouds were billowing over to the demon pce and covered miles around it. The demon elders from various ns stood in the clouds and stared at the demon pce.
As time passed, more demon experts arrived around the demon pce. Their auras filled the surroundings, and the air of demon magnates seeped throughout the surroundings!
The eight saint n experts stood in the sky, looking emotionlessly at the demon pce and were still pulling themselves back from galvanizing into actions. They were still waiting for more experts toe, or to be exact, something strong enough that could secure their sess rate. A few momentster, a thick and oppressive demon god aura suffused the air as a beautiful ship flew over. Experts and cultivators of the older generation were on deck while a huge tambour was on the ship''s prow.
The tambour was unsurprisingly a divine demon weapon, one that was beyond the ordinary divine armaments!
Other than that, there was a ming war chariot riding over while leaving a zing trail behind in its wake like scarlet contrails - it was none other than the Asura Saint n''s Sun Chariot!
The eight saint n valued the Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo so highly that they had even taken out two divine demon weapons!
While at the center of demon''s focus, Feng Xiaozhong in the pce was shuddering violently, his face contorted in a strained effort as he gave it his all to suppress his insanity. All of a sudden, his body stopped still, and his face turned calm. But as he lifted his head up, the inquisitive light that used to shine in his onyx eyes was now overtaken by a pure and unbridled madness.
He strode out of the demon pce and lifted up his head. Looking into the sky with a warm, bright smile, he said, "Ah … More specimens to add to my collection…"
…
In the demon pce, light and soft melodies resounded in the depths of the pce, caused by the metal chains that were locking the colossal demon god corpses down. These demon gods were dissected, and their internal organs were exposed to the air. Other than godly corpses, there was still a thousand feet tall ss container on the side. Totem patterns were carved all over it and inside were sealed the spirits that belonged to the demon gods!
These spirits of the demon gods were also dissected, and they were long dead, but their spirits remained in this world. The greatest pain one could ever suffer didn''te from the body nor the heart but the spirit. When their spirits were dissected, spread into pieces, and left exposed to the air, even the gods would be tormented into tears!
Their faces were dreadful, they were struggling, pummeling on the ss container, trying to get out and their angered voices were only reverberating in the ss container as the totem patterns on the ss container even constrained the sounds in it!
While outside of the demon pce, a blood-curdling battle broke out!
As of now, the boat was already long gone from the battlefield. In the boat, Zhong Yue calmed himself down and looked into the information imparted to him by Feng Xiaozhong.
Thoseplexed bloodline seals were required to be identified individually, one by one, so that he could match them with the respective ways to break them away attained by Feng Xiaozhong.
He also needed to study the Seal of the Six Paths, study the Six Paths Reincarnation and also the sixth wheels in the gods dissected by Feng Xiaozhong. He needed to cross-reference all the information with the attainments he had on the sixth wheel so that all his insights would be aligned perfectly.
Other than that, he would also need to locate the position of the sixth wheel and find its point.
The more he studied it, the more his admiration for Feng Xiaozhong grew. The madman was incredibly talented, possessing boundless intelligence and the knowledge he had on the seals of the human blood was far beyond Zhong Yue''s imagination.
Another three days passed, and Zhong Yue had finally finished digesting everything Feng Xiaozhong had imparted to him. The next step was naturally to open the sixth wheel, forming the Six Paths of Reincarnation in his body.
If only Feng Xiaozhong weren''t a madman, he would surely be the most peerless paragon of the human race, wouldn''t he? Even the innate spirit bodies could not hold a candle to him in terms of pure ability when considering the position of headmaster. What a pity … Zhong Yue could not help butment the loss in his heart.
All of a sudden, Tian Mo Concubine, Ji Xiang Concubine, Saint Concubine and the courtdies in the boat were suddenly shocked, their countenances turned pallid, and they retrieved the godly totem pirs of their respective ns. These totem pirs reformed the totem patterns engraved on them into different-looking faces andmunicated with them quickly, their faces changed drastically.
After a few moments, Tian Mo Concubine stepped forward, in a quivering voice, she asked, “Darling, that demon pce, who’s is it?”
“The Transcender.”
Zhong Yue opened his eyes, and he said cidly, "How are your nsmen?"
No reply was given, and after a few seconds, Tian Mo Concubine answered bitterly, "None lived, the divine demon weapons were lost, and the magnates are all dead. That demon pce is now listed as a forbiddennd to all of the demon race by eight saint ns … This Transcender … He must have a name, right?"
Zhong Yue then answered calmly, "Do you know that there is a human tribe in the Great Wilderness, even with only one remaining tribesman left, it is still the greatest tribe of the entire Great Wilderness. It is called the Feng n."
Tian Mo Concubine and the otherdies sucked in a deep breath of cold air, and they mumbled in fear, "He is … Feng Xiaozhong! This Feng Demon…"
“It''s the Transcender.”
Zhong Yue corrected them and said, "Once he is in his berserk state, not even demons will dare to call themselves demons in front of him; and when he is sane, he is the incarnation of a living god. He is in between a celestial and a demon … the Transcender."
