Chapter 789: Combat Body
Zhong Yue silently praised in his heart. Clans on the level of the Zhu Shi Celestial Race controlled a large amount of top graded resources for themselves and often cultivated much faster and efficiently than humans. Though after he still lost to Zhong Yue after his advancement, he knew little of what Zhong Yue had gone through.
Zhong Yue has brushed shoulders with death more times than he could count to be able to stand where he was right now.
As for the Weapon Ancestor's cultivation, he was supplied with countless divine herbs and was supported by over hundreds of gods to forge his body and Yuan Shen.
With that, the Weapon Ancestor had saved himself plenty of effort to strengthen his base. Only powerful races like the Zhu Shi Celestial Race were able to afford something like that.
By doing so, the Weapon Ancestor had saved at least hundred years of effort. It was only now that Zhong Yue realized how incredible an advantage it was to be a part of such clans.
But of course, things were not as perfect as they would seem on the surface; though they saved a lot of time and efforts, the lacked the same in experience and knowledge that someone who walked Zhong Yue's path would have.
This, however, did not apply to those that were reborn like the Weapon Ancestor.
"I've lost."
The Weapon Ancestor got up, and when he walked away, he said, "Forget about the remaining two months. Our Zhu Shi Celestial Race admits defeat so please go home, dear senior martial brothers and sisters of the Xian Tian Palace!"
The Zhu Shi Celestial Race came to the of Weapon Ancestor's intention and they quickly acted, trying to send Zhong Yue and the others out while they all thought, After chasing them out from here, we will ambush them right away halfway, crush their souls and eliminate every traces to avenge ourselves! If we did it clean and swift, not even the Imperial Emperor Xian Tian will know!
Zhong Yue frowned as he wanted to drag the matter for as long as he could, but after all, the Weapon Ancestor who is a reincarnation Creator, knew what they were after so he made sure not to leave them any chance of survival.
If he leaves now, we will be dead for sure even if we manage to get in contact with Xian Tian Palace because of the distance!
All kind of thoughts circled crossed his mind and suddenly, a loud voice was heard laughing, "Hold on! Dear senior martial brothers of the Zhu Shi Celestial Race, I am interested in competing with this reincarnated innate god, may I borrow your place?"
Zhong Yue felt happy right away and when he turned around, he realized that the owner of that voice was the giant who had arrived not too long ago.
The higher-ups in the Zhu Shi Celestial Race and the Weapon Ancestor frowned upon seeing this, and the latter looked at Tian Xuanzi hesitantly.
On the other hand, Royal Prince Wen Chang was also frowning, berating Tian Xuanzi secretly, You said you are loyal to my father and that you wouldn't fight if there is no chance of winning but here you are! This fool is really a troublemaker! I shouldn't have invited him!
Tian Xuanzi stretched and said, "I've basically beaten up or got beaten by the young generation gods in Zi Wei Galaxy. Now that I've run into a reincarnated innate god, I can't ignore my desire to compete with him! Weapon Ancestor, can you please grant me my wish? You lost to him so let me beat him up to make you feel better!"
Weapon Ancestor answered politely, "I dare not trouble you, senior martial brother. Besides, this is a personal affair of our Zhu Shi Celestial Race...."
"I was invited by the Royal Prince Wen Chang, no need for the formalities and politeness! I'm here to help you in support of Royal Prince Wen Chang!"
He then leaped into the air before landing on one of the warehouses in the Imperial Granary and said carefreely, "If I win, your Zhu Shi Celestial Race will owe me one. This includes Royal Prince Wen Chang as well. Next time, if I am in trouble, be sure to help me! Thank you!"
The Weapon Ancestor was on the verge of snapping and Royal Prince Wen Chang almost pulled his hair out right away. They both were doing all they could to prevent themselves from losing control and beating this muscular giant up!
Screw you! When we needed you to act, you did nothing, but when we wished things to end quickly, you jumped out and stirred more trouble for us, even daring to say that we owe you!
But they were merely scolding him in their mind; the Ju Ling Clan was the sovereign race among the celestial race and though they were not as strong as before, they were still a power not to be taken lightly.
Even though the Fuxi Celestial Race was no more and there were no longer any Fuxi, the power and influence they left behind could never be ignored. Besides, without experiencing the crisis rained upon Fuxi Celestial Race, the Ju Ling Clan did not suffer many losses, managing to preserve quite a lot of their power and territory.
The sovereign clans like the Ju Ling Race may not seem to be as powerful as before and while they appeared to be much weaker than the newly arisen clans, the capital and heritage they had accumulated throughout time was still not something the newly arisen monarch clans could compare with.
Royal Prince Wen Chang, as the Heavenly Monarch's son, was one member of a monarch race, but he knew that the monarch race he belonged to was no match for the Ju Ling Clan.
Tian Xuanzi, on the other hand, looked at Zhong Yue as a wide smile spread across his face. He transmitted a psyche message to Zhong Yue, "You're welcome!"
Zhong Yue was surprised and he thought, This giant seems to be a reckless one but he is actually rather sharp.
Tian Xuanzi obviously knew what would happen if Zhong Yue and the others left. He continued saying, "I will fight with you and you can try to drag it out as long as you can. How long you can last under my attacks is up to you!"
He suddenly dashed. His speed belied his size as he rammed towards Zhong Yue like a raging storm!
"But of course, you owe me one as well! Next time, when I am in trouble, you will have to help me with all you could!"
The giant from the Ju Ling Clan had a very powerful body. Each time he moved, the heavens shook and the earth trembled. He obviously managed to cultivate his body to a level that no ordinary god could even reach!
With a punch that was unadorned by any unnecessary movements, the giant's attack was swift and direct!
With the power of his fleshly body alone, this Tian Xuanzi was already head and shoulder above his peers.
Innate mortal body!
Zhong Yue was shocked; he had never encountered another innate mortal body in the Zi Wei Galaxy even after being here to a long time.
And someone who had also achieved this boundary, the difficulty of reaching this stage was all too clear to Zhong Yue!
Besides, one required an emperor level art, and the art he used was the [Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace Scripture], where his body was used as the furnace to smelt thunder and lightning before absorbing it as essences!
With that, he had finally achieved the innate body and after ascending into a god, he achieved the innate divine body!
And to think that this giant had also achieved the same thing, perhaps even stronger, how did he do that?
I expect nothing less from the Ju Ling Clan, the clan that is one of the eight sovereign clans, a clan that gave birth to an Earthly Sovereign Heavenly Monarch! Their foundation is extremely deep to be able to produce such experts!
Zhong Yue praised internally, but this did not hold him back; he smacked his fist with Tian Xuanzi's as a loud and thunderous boom rang out. The gods around them who heard the thump suddenly had their faces turned pale with blood dripping out from their mouths.
Tian Xuanzi's fist was as huge as a mountain and Zhong Yue was of the normal size; when their fists came into contact, nothing spectacular happened and there was only a thump.
But it was also this insignificant thump that impacted the many gods around greatly and injured them!
This was because the power they unleashed did not scatter at all, and when their fists clashed, the dimension around them shattered into dust!
And after receiving the clashing power of their fist, the power of the two innate divine bodies rampaged in the tiny dimension, resulting in an explosion in the dimension that crushed it.
Thus, just imagine the power contained in the explosion, which created a loud thump.
Seeing this, the many Deity Emperors acted right away; they placed down seals around the Imperial Granary to prevent the shockwaves from injuring the disciple of Zhu Shi Celestial Race.
Inside the Imperial Granary, Zhong Yue and Tian Xuanzi dashed around as if they were teleporting; they appeared for a second before vanishing and reappearing at somewhere far away. They both clashed fiercely with each other and each time when they exchanged blows, loud thumps were hurt and the ripples started forming all over on the seals placed around the Imperial Granary.
The shockwaves created by their clashes struck onto the seals planted by the Deity Emperors and the seals started to flash each time they were impacted.
Suddenly, after another clash, Zhong Yue leaped onto Tian Xuanzi's fist and he started running towards Tian Xuanzi's head. Upon reaching his head, Zhong Yue punched right onto Tian Xuanzi's, toppling the giant and his head landed right onto a warehouse.
Dong—
Zhong Yue applied strength on his palm, grabbing towards the giant's head and kept slamming his head onto the warehouse.
Dong— Dong— Dong—
The giant warehouse trembled under the impact; as a warehouse created by a Deity Emperor, these warehouses were basically immune to their strength but the warehouses were still being pushed away by them.
Tian Xuanzi roared and instead of resisting, he allowed Zhong Yue to continue slamming his head onto the warehouse and he lifted the warehouse in front of him.
Tian Xuanzi turned around and he used the warehouse as his new weapon, hurled it onto Zhong Yue, who then got sent flying away.
The warehouse flew together with Zhong Yue and at the back of the warehouse was Tian Xuanzi who rained down punches onto the warehouse, adding more and more power in the speed of flying.
Boom—
Zhong Yue slammed into another warehouse while the warehouse that was used as a weapon by Tian Xuanzi slammed right into Zhong Yue.
The two warehouses pressured Zhong Yue so hard that his bones started to creak while the warehouse behind him was pushed backwards.
As he was trapped between the two warehouses, he kicked onto the one behind him and finally freed himself.
Outside the seals, the magnates from the Zhu Shi Celestial Race were all dumbfounded.
These warehouses were where the Heavenly Monarch stored food supplies for his army. Every single one of these warehouses was as heavy as the moon.
And yet these two crazy men actually toyed around with these warehouses as if they were nothing. Such powerful bodies were extremely rare!
Suddenly, Tian Xuanzi's size shrunk and Zhong Yue's enlarged. After another clash, their body sizes changed in the other way round.
This repeated for a few times; with equally muscular bodies, they two fought even more intensely and ruthlessly!
The confused Dong Ah then asked, "Senior Martial Brother Bo Di, they are...."
"They are looking for the most suitable Combat Body."
Bo Di did not even look away from the scene as he wanted to observe and learn from this battle, "Their bodies are equally strong, but Tian Xuanzi's large form comes at the cost of mobility, so he had to shrink his body size. Senior Martial Brother Yi Feng's was small but his speed was incredible. However, this came at the expense of strength so he had to enlarge his size to compensate. We are merely witnessing the prelude of the true battle."
