“The gall of you! You actually attacked the seal of the Human Ruler! You really disregard law and natural morality!” The voice of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky reverberated throughout the void.

The other five half-step Yuan Venerates didn’t seem very pleased either. The seal of the Human Ruler chose its owner and it had chosen Long Fantian. In their opinion, this was really appropriate.

However, the trouble-making Luo Yunyang had actually used unreasonable means against the seal of the Human Ruler during this selection.

The seal of the Human Ruler was terrified of Luo Yunyang’s might and had pledged its allegiance to him. This was blasphemy in the eyes of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others.

Even so, Luo Yunyang had still made his move on the seal of the Human Ruler.

Although the seal of the Human Ruler had withstood his attack, it had ended up in a cracked state. Clearly, Luo Yunyang could shatter this seal, which represented the Human Ruler, with ease if he wanted to.

This was the greatest blasphemy!

“Master definitely wouldn’t allow such a lawless person to be the Human Ruler,” the first hall master of Battle Hall said icily.

The first hall master of Dark Hall also lamented. “But he has already become the Human Ruler!”

As they were talking, the seal of the Human Ruler that was already in Luo Yunyang’s hands seemed tame and it once again started to emit light.

The five-colored celebratory cloud gathered above Luo Yunyang’s head and a set of emperor robes made completely of nomological laws quickly appeared on Luo Yunyang’s body.

A mystical glow shone down from the nine skies. When it landed on Luo Yunyang, the damaged bluestone path to the heavens was restored and quickly harmonized with Luo Yunyang.

As he was bathed in this mystical glow, Luo Yunyang seemed like an emperor overlooking everything.

At the moment, he had already been integrated with the sky and earth of the 36 Great Cosmoses.

Practically all the martialists in the 36 Great Cosmoses felt a sense of allegiance when they saw Luo Yunyang draped in these emperor robes.

The Human Ruler!

This was the Human Ruler!

Long Fantian gazed at Luo Yunyang, who was floating above the path to the heavens, and felt an impulse of subservience. Long Fantian shuddered when he had this thought.

He was an experienced, resolute person after cultivating for so many years. Furthermore, he had always had hostile feelings toward Luo Yunyang.

This is mine! This is all mine! I, Long Fantian, should be the one receiving endless adoration. I should have become the Human Ruler!

Luo Yunyang had relied on forceful means to seize the position of the Human Ruler. He wasn’t the true Human Ruler. He was just a rebel who had taken the position by force.

Long Fantian’s resentment intensified as these thoughts went through his mind. At that moment, Dongfang Chitian and the others also rushed over.

They didn’t seem very pleased as they gazed at Luo Yunyang, who was floating high above.

The battle for the position of the Human Ruler had involved massive benefits. The 300 Taichu Yuan Venerates had followed Long Fantian because of the benefits Long Fantian had promised their clans.

Unfortunately, Long Fantian hadn’t become the Human Ruler, which meant that the things he had promised their clans wouldn’t happen.

Although they were all important and mighty people, they would still receive criticism from their own clan patriarchs.

This was extremely humiliating for Dongfang Chitian, who had been easily overtaken by Luo Yunyang at the first hurdle.

“Lord Long Fantian, didn’t you say that Luo Yunyang snatched the seal of the Human Ruler from you? Let us snatch it back from him now,” Dongfang Chitian said with a hint of viciousness.

Although Long Fantian felt that doing so wouldn’t be right, he still nodded his head. After all, this was his only chance.

“Luo Yunyang, you have committed a terrible crime by scheming to seize the position of the Human Ruler. Today, we shall return the position of the Human Ruler to its rightful owner!” Dongfang Chitian said as he shot over at Luo Yunyang frantically.

300 Taichu Yuan Venerates practically made their moves simultaneously.

All the martialists in the 36 Great Cosmoses were extremely delighted. The 36 Great Cosmoses of the Human Race would stand to gain the most now that Luo Yunyang had become the Human Ruler.

Everything else aside, the great clans of Tianding Realm would definitely not be able to seize the cultivation resources of the 36 Great Cosmoses without any scruples as they had in the past.

Their position would also rise continuously along with Luo Yunyang, who was the Human Ruler.

However, even after seeing Luo Yunyang being recognized by the heavens, the 300 Taichu Venerates still attacked Luo Yunyang. This really infuriated them and made them feel a deep sense of helplessness.

Although the majority of them were very willing to lend their power to Luo Yunyang right now, they couldn’t enter the space where the path to the heavens lay. Besides, their cultivation bases were too lacking.

Under the circumstances, they could basically do nothing.

“Shameless! Why not come one at a time if you want the position of the Human Ruler? Using such methods is simply vile!” Xuantian Zhaoxin roared angrily.

Unfortunately, Xuantian Zhaoxin and the others were just as powerless.

Only Xuantian Zhaoxin’s cultivation base was close to the Taishi Yuan Venerate. However, it was still too far apart from the Taichu Yuan Venerate.

The Da Qian Master and the others were also anxious. The four of them were basically all the Taichu Yuan Venerates of the 36 Great Cosmoses.

Although they were probably slightly stronger than Dongfang Chitian and the others, the other side had too many people.

Under the circumstances, they really couldn’t be of much use.

Just as they were preparing to rush over at the space where the path to the heavens was, Luo Yunyang’s expression was as unperturbed as ever. “How reckless!” he said calmly.

As he said this, his hands moved and the Thousand Era Imperial Purposes fist was unleashed.

This wasn’t the first time Luo Yunyang had used the Thousand Era Imperial Purposes during the battle for the position of the Human Ruler. However, compared to the previous times, the Thousand Era Imperial Purposes move was milder yet it contained an unquestionable might.

When Dongfang Chitian sensed this might, he felt like the great path nomological laws he had were already suppressed by two-thirds.

That wasn’t all. When Luo Yunyang’s fist descended, he felt as if more than half of the power in his body was being sealed.

The fact that their combat ability was deteriorating multi-fold was an absolute calamity for Dongfang Chitian and the others.

“Half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate, how is this possible?” An ear-piercing shout echoed.

Dongfang Chitian heard this shout and instantly understood that this was the might of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate. Although the 300 Taichu Yuan Venerates were powerful, they were merely insignificant ants in the face of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate entity.

In just a moment, Dongfang Chitian realized that he could do nothing. Unfortunately, it was already impossible for him to retract his attack.

Luo Yunyang’s attack made the sky tremble. Everything seemed to have frozen in mid-air in the face of this power.

“You… You have really become the Human Ruler!” Although Long Fantian was still attacking, the Heavenly Emperor All Living Mark he used was much weaker than before.

He was willing to accept this, but he was feeling more helpless than unwilling.

He was rueful because he was reluctant yet helpless.

Luo Yunyang felt the various laws in the surroundings fuse with his body as he said indifferently, “You are right, I have already become the Human Ruler. You already have no chance of vying with me for the position of the Human Ruler!” Luo Yunyang spoke with a trace of mockery.

I have lost! I have really lost this time!

But is there absolutely no chance? No, I am the disciple of the Divine Ancestor. There should still be a chance even though I have lost this time. Although Luo Yunyang has become the Human Ruler, he is still far from being comparable to the Divine Ancestor!

“Luo Yunyang, you have beaten me this time. I admit defeat. However, one day, I will return all the humiliation you brought upon me.” Long Fantian’s face was rigid as he stared at Luo Yunyang bitterly.

Luo Yunyang flashed a smile at Long Fantian but didn’t say anything. However, the Thousand Era Imperial Purposes still barreled toward Long Fantian.

In an instant, the golden palm was slapping down Long Fantian.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others all looked disappointed as they saw the state the 300 Taichu Yuan Venerates of Tianding Realm were in.

They all knew that Long Fantian and his party had already lost their last chance. However, they had never expected that Luo Yunyang would go overboard and make such a vicious move on Long Fantian.

Luo Yunyang, who possessed the might of a half-step Taichu Yuan Venerate, was considerably more powerful than Long Fantian. Under the circumstances, Long Fantian would basically have no way out of a full-power strike from Luo Yunyang.

BOOM!

Long Fantian’s body was immediately blown up. His spirit consciousness wanted to rush out from this void, but the golden palm didn’t stop. Instead, it started to crush his spirit consciousness.

In just an instant, Long Fantian’s spiritual consciousness had started to fragment.

Losing a body was already a great loss for Long Fantian. If his spiritual consciousness broke down, he wouldn’t be able to maintain his Taichu Yuan Venerate cultivation base easily.

While Taichu Yuan Venerates couldn’t die in the eyes of ordinary people, this immortality depended on who their opponent was.

If a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate wanted to squish a Taichu Yuan Venerate, it wouldn’t be very difficult to achieve.

“Luo Yunyang, you actually dare kill me? Master won’t pardon you!” Long Fantian roared. “Save me, Master!”

As Long Fantian howled, Luo Yunyang said icily, “The Human Ruler’s sanctity isn’t allowed to be questioned. Die!”

Chapter 1101: Six Joint Heavenly Rulers

Atlas Studios

Long Fantian’s status was way beyond the ordinary!

Not only was he a renowned figure amongst Taichi Yuan Venerates, but he was also the Divine Ancestor’s final disciple. It could be said that Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others would give in to him when it came to many things.

More importantly, he was the Human Ruler that the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor had chosen.

However, Luo Yunyang was actually trying to kill him audaciously!

“He is courting death!” Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky’s gaze was like crackling lightning as fury built up in him. He wasn’t furious because of how important Long Fantian was, but because if Luo Yunyang were to kill Long Fantian in this way, it would be a provocation to the sanctity of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor’s disciples.

However, he simply wasn’t able to stop it.

Although their cultivation was outstanding, they were unable to enter the space where the path to the heavens was and were naturally unable to stop Luo Yunyang.

“Master definitely wouldn’t let him act so impudently!” the first Xuan Pin Sacred Hall Master said irrefutably.

There wasn’t much time for them to discuss, as Luo Yunyang’s fist intent had already struck Long Fangtian’s soul viciously.

In an instant, Long Fantian’s soul shattered and dissipated into the void.

Although martialists at the level of a Taichu Yuan Venerate could be resurrected with just a trace of spiritual consciousness, the possibility of being resurrected when facing the entrapment of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate wasn’t too high.

Long Fantian looked terrified and unwilling the moment before his soul was destroyed. He was afraid that he was really going to die! What made him feel unresigned was that he hadn’t achieved many of his lofty ambitions.

Actually, he was filled with anger. The object of this anger wasn’t Luo Yunyang but his own master.

Originally, he had thought that his own master would definitely show up and save him if he were to encounter a calamity that concerned his fate. He was still the master’s final disciple, so the Divine Ancestor would definitely save him at a crucial time.

However, while his assumptions seemed great, he wasn’t saved by anyone.

His soul was annihilated by Luo Yunyang’s overwhelming fist intent. The nomological laws he controlled and even some life-preserving methods he possessed all disappeared in the face of Luo Yunyang’s fist intent.

“Long Fantian has died!”

Dongfang Chitian and the others were flabbergasted as they watched Long Fantian fade away. They couldn’t believe that what they had witnessed was true.

In their opinion, Luo Yunyang wouldn’t dare kill Long Fantian even if he dared to make a move. He would at most just teach him a lesson.

They had never imagined that this entity that had just attained the position of the Human Ruler would make a move and immediately kill the disciple of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor.

What sort of person was Long Fantian? In terms of status, he was more than a hundred times stronger than them!

Not only did his cultivation exceed theirs by far, but his status couldn’t be comparable either. However, such an individual had been killed just like that.

“Are you all going to do something?” Luo Yunyang’s voice rang out as they were all still feeling confused and muddled.

Although Dongfang Chitian and the others had strength in numbers, Luo Yunyang had displayed a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate’s cultivation.

In the face of such crushing power, the final outcome of possible resistance would be death. Therefore, after exchanging apprehensive glances, Dongfang Chitian and the others realized that this was the time to yield.

“Greetings, Human Ruler!” A Taichu Yuan Venerate hesitated for a moment before bowing.

Luo Yunyang was in a position of power now. Therefore, some Taichu Yuan Venerates chose to lower their heads. They weren’t being too disgraceful. After all, Long Fantian was already dead and they didn’t want to be buried alongside him.

When some took the lead, others would follow. In just a moment, more than a hundred people bowed in Luo Yunyang’s direction.

Dongfang Chitian and the other Taichu Yuan Venerates of the various large clans hesitated a lot at the beginning. However, as more of their comrades chose to bow, they too paid their respects to Luo Yunyang. “Greetings, Human Ruler!”

Luo Yunyang smiled at the 300 Taichu Yuan Venerates.

Although he really wished to kill these fellows, he realized that killing Long Fantian had most likely tested the limits of that person.

That person would definitely not agree if he were to kill so many other Yuan Venerates. After all, nurturing a Yuan Venerate wasn’t easy.

Permitting the killing of Long Fantian already showed the newly-ascended Human Ruler some respect. If Luo Yunyang didn’t know when to draw a line, then there was a possibility that he would receive great punishment.

“No need for formalities.” Luo Yunyang glanced at the 300 Taichu Yuan Venerates and chuckled. “I heard that there were 300 constellations in ancient times. From now on, you are the 300 Starlords of our Human Race.”

300 Starlords!

This sounded very impressive, but Dongfang Chitian and the others were no fools. They immediately understood that these Starlords weren’t much in front of the Human Ruler.

After all, anything that existed in a big quantity would fall in value. However, they understood that they needed to express their gratitude to the Human Ruler, who had presented them with this title.

When this was done, Dongfang Chitian and the others left the path to the heavens. As they were leaving, some information appeared in Luo Yunyang’s head.

This information mainly concerned the space of the path to heaven.

This space actually had another name: Supreme Sky Domain. This was a space the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor had created by drawing on a portion of energy from the 36 Great Cosmoses and Tianding Realm. Or rather, it could be described as an ultimate treasure.

As long as the seal of the Human Ruler was incorporated, even a Taishi Yuan Venerate could display power equivalent to a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate in this space. More importantly, because of the existence of the Supreme Sky Domain, the Human Ruler could still exhibit the power of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate within the 36 Great Cosmoses or Tianding Realm.

Upon leaving the scope of the Human Race’s control, the power of the Supreme Sky Domain would decline considerably and the Human Ruler’s power would only be restored to his original strength.

Controlling this half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate power required that one should become the Human Ruler. After completely integrating the seal of the Human Ruler, that person would truly be one with the Supreme Sky Domain.

Now, there were two choices Luo Yunyang could make. One was to completely integrate it, and the second option was not to integrate it.

Fully integrating it would naturally mean that all the benefits would be controlled by Luo Yunyang. Not integrating it would mean that even though Luo Yunyang could display the strength of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate in the Supreme Sky Domain, he would still only have his own cultivation base in the 36 Great Cosmoses and Tianding Realm.

This meant that it would be difficult to tap on the power of the Supreme Sky Domain in these places. On the surface, it seemed like the benefits of integrating the seal of the Human Ruler were great. However, once it was integrated, there would practically be no possibility of advancing one’s cultivation base.

Taishi Yuan Venerate, Taichu Yuan Venerate, Taiyi Yuan Venerate!

While it seemed like the only difference between these three was their grade, each of them had barriers that were difficult to exceed.

It was very difficult to go from the Taishi Yuan Venerate to the Taichu Yuan Venerate and even more difficult to ascend to the Taiyi Yuan Venerate from the Taichu Yuan Venerate. It could even be said that ascending from the Taichu Yuan Venerate to the half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate already seemed insurmountable.

Otherwise, Tianding Realm wouldn’t only have Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the other five half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerates after so many years since the Divine Ancestor.

The reason Long Fantian had strived for the position of the Human Ruler and had even been willing to give the majority of the benefits to Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others was because he had been striving to become a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate.

Although this sort of half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate ascension seemed somewhat false, he wouldn’t have been any weaker than Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the other first hall masters as long as he was within the range the Human Ruler controlled.

For all Yuan Venerate powerhouses, being a half-step Yuan Venerate was enticing and hard to reject. It could even be said that the allure of being a Taiyi Yuan Venerate couldn’t be resisted.

Luo Yunyang pondered this for a moment before making a decision.

After seeing what it felt like to possess the enormous power of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate, Luo Yunyang really liked the power that a half-step Yuan Venerate could possess. However, he understood that this sort of power wouldn’t be his own true strength.

This power originated from the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor. It was like the God Sky Conversion Technique, and the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor could easily withdraw this power if he felt like it. However, the ones who experienced this would suffer immense losses.

Decline!

This was Luo Yunyang’s choice. The instant Luo Yunyang made this choice, he felt more relaxed, as though a massive load had been lifted off his back.

The moment Luo Yunyang made his decision, he even felt like he heard a sigh. However, the source of this sigh was too far away and he simply couldn’t tell where it had come from.

A call from the Da Qian Master and the others was received by Luo Yunyang’s communication device. Luo Yunyang quickly put them through after he regained his composure.

While he was already the Human Ruler, Luo Yunyang knew clearly that being the Human Ruler only sounded great. In fact, the power he had was still the same.

Even if he constructed a Human Ruler palace, he would need the cooperation of the Da Qian Master and the others.

“Congratulations, Human Ruler!” the Da Qian Master said with a bright smile when he saw Luo Yunyang through the virtual realm.

At the same time, the Xuan Pin Sacred Master and the others also bowed respectfully in Luo Yunyang’s direction.

Although Luo Yunyang had already become the Human Ruler, he still smiled gently while facing them. “Hall Masters, even though I have seized the position of the Human Ruler, I am still the same old me. Let’s speak like we always have. I will cut ties with you all if you address me as Human Ruler or anything!”

The Da Qian Master laughed heartily. He was about to speak when a thunderous sound rang out throughout the void. “Luo Yunyang serves as the Human Ruler. Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the other five will be the Six JointHeavenly Rulers, who will rank under the Human Ruler. They will be in charge of the sky and earth…”
