The Growth of a God-Chapter 624 - 8: Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch

The Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch is a Celestial Being, one who has not joined the ranks of the Godslayers.

The reason why he appeared in the great war of the Celestial Human Realm is that he was affected by the curse of the Chaos Seventeen Ancestors, which forced his residing world to be connected with the Celestial Human Realm.

Of course, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch is not a character with benevolent intentions or compassion for all beings.

He did not develop any feelings of concern just because his world was drawn into the great war of the Celestial Human Realm.

On the contrary, as a qualified "Civilization Seller", the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch saw limitless business opportunities in it.

The so-called "Civilization Seller" essentially refers to deities who treat races and civilizations as "commodities" for trade.

Since the birth of the [Civilization Game], many deities dissatisfied with their clans, or who had special requirements, have exchanged civilizations they needed through the [Balance of Truth].

Thus, some special deities emerged specifically for conducting such transactions.

Due to his own strength, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch is not the kind of "Civilization Seller" who forcibly alters the ecological environment of the entire world to create races that meet specific requirements.

In the hierarchy of "Civilization Sellers", the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch is of a mid-lower type.

Because the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch neither has the qualifications nor ever sells those unique, special civilizations, he only sells some rather unique individuals.

Therefore, the other worlds now forcibly linked to the Celestial Human Realm have become potential "commodity" sources for the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch.

Among these, the Mountain and Sea People from the Mountain and Sea Realm are the most precious.

This is not just because since the emergence of the Mountain and Sea Civilization, very few have been able to deeply understand this group.

Moreover, the Mountain and Sea People from the Mountain and Sea Civilization, on average, have the potential to become Ascenders, and possess a lifespan as long as that of a Demigod.

With these two combined, an ordinary Mountain and Sea Person basically equals a Demigod yet to grow.

Here, it’s necessary to explain that, taking the All Heavens and Myriad Realms into view, not every world has the basic conditions of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

In fact, most of the time, a Divine Pantheon aiming to cultivate a qualified Demigod often has to go through half a civilization’s evolution.

And if this target is raised to the level of a God, several civilizations’ evolutions might not necessarily be able to nurture a qualified True God.

A world like the Mountain and Sea Realm, where every individual has Demigod potential and forms a grand Divine Pantheon within tens of thousands of years, is regarded as an unimaginable miracle by any informed individual.

Feng Xi was picked up as a disciple by the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch under such circumstances.

Thanks to the unique master-disciple inheritance system of the Celestial Human Civilization, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch did not mistreat Feng Xi and tried his best to cultivate her into an outstanding Ascender.

After all, only in this way could the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch sell Feng Xi for a good price.

However, in this way, Feng Xi’s childhood memories were only left with the strict visage of the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch and the almost impossible coursework and tasks.

This situation persisted until the Mountain and Sea Civilization realized their child had been "lost."

Almost without any disputes, the Great Prophets of the Zhiku reached an unprecedented consensus—they must find that lost child and give the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch the punishment he deserved.

From that day forth, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch was relentlessly hunted by the Mountain and Sea Civilization.

No matter how he fled or to which world he escaped...

The Mountain and Sea Civilization almost used all their power and technology to firmly lock onto the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’s whereabouts.

Not until then did the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch realize that the Mountain and Sea Civilization was unlike any civilization he had encountered before.

The disappearance of an individual is a trivial matter in any world or any civilization.

Yet it was this trivial matter that led the Mountain and Sea Civilization to engage in relentless pursuit without an upper limit.

Yes, being hunted for centuries by the Mountain and Sea Civilization, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch can be sure that the resources and manpower consumed have long surpassed that of waging a super large-scale war.

To invest such exaggerated resources and manpower in him.

The Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch didn’t know whether to label the Mountain and Sea Civilization as stubborn or become angry at himself for underestimating their regard for offspring.

In this situation, let alone selling Feng Xi for a good price, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch didn’t even dare let any accident befall her.

After all, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch wasn’t sure if any mishap to Feng Xi might prompt this lunatic civilization to directly annihilate him.

There is a difference between tracking, hunting, and sheer annihilation disregard.

The former considers restraint during action, not daring to act recklessly...

While the latter needs nothing but to ascertain the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’s general location, and indiscriminate attacks like artillery bombardment are completely within the Mountain and Sea Civilization’s capabilities.

At least, the contemporary leader of the Mountain and Sea Civilization—Tianyou is definitely capable of doing such things.

This endless pursuit stopped at the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’s voluntary surrender.

After all, the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch realized that as long as he carried Feng Xi by his side, the Mountain and Sea Civilization would never cease pursuing him.

Since then, there was one less "Civilization Seller" in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, and a prisoner named "Celestial Sorrow Ascendant" was added to the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Perhaps due to the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch not doing anything too terrible to Feng Xi, the high-levels of the Mountain and Sea Civilization ultimately chose not to kill him.

Furthermore, Feng Xi was even specially allowed to continue contacting the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch.

This was also related to Feng Xi’s own will—even knowing the whole truth, she did not hate the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch much.

Because besides wanting to sell Feng Xi as a "commodity", the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’s cultivation of her was utterly selfless.

This can be seen from the third Celestial Eye in Feng Xi’s forehead.

That Celestial Eye was a Divine Eye nurtured by the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch’s interference and cultivation using special methods when Feng Xi was still in the egg, and its origin comes from the Can Cong God of the Ancient Shu God.

According to legend, the Celestial Eye of the Can Cong God has the ability to distinguish good from evil, understand Yin and Yang, and illuminate all evils.

Although Feng Xi is not a direct descendant of the Can Cong God, being endowed with one Celestial Eye has made her path of cultivation unobstructed.

Furthermore, stepping back a thousand steps, if not for the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch, Feng Xi might not have survived until the day she was born.

From this perspective, Feng Xi has always harbored feelings towards the Celestial Sorrow Demon Monarch similar to those of a father. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
