Chapter 1884 - 1881: Ascending the Mountain
At the end of the Emperor Road of Slaughter.Qiao Xinyu at the front, with the East Desolate Wolf behind.
Climbing the mountain.
Behind them, there were also reincarnators and snow storages walking the same Emperor Road of Slaughter.
————
Destiny Emperor Road.
One of the Three Thousand Emperor Paths, representing the Destiny Dao of the Three Thousand Great Dao.
At the end, a young man in a Daoist robe leisurely walked to this place, his eyes carrying a mysterious sense of antiquity.
A half-year journey on the Emperor Road seemed to have given him much to reflect on, and he saw many things.
Following behind him were fellow seniors from the Immortal Capital Pavilion.
"Beyond this is the peak of the Xuanhuang Emperor Road."
An elder in the Invincible Great Sage Realm squinted his eyes, looking at the majestic Divine Mountain at the end.
"Little Zhou Ye, you who have glimpsed the river of destiny, can you see your future self?"
The elder withdrew his gaze, smilingly looking at Zhou Ye, his younger family member.
Although he was a senior, he couldn’t compare to this younger generation in terms of strength or talent.
Initially, his main intent was to protect Zhou Ye on the Emperor Road.
But in the latter half of the Emperor Road, it was Zhou Ye who was dragging them forward.
If it weren’t for Zhou Ye, they might not have reached this far.
"I see nothing."
Zhou Ye withdrew his gaze, shaking his head as he said, "That thing is too enigmatic. This Destiny Emperor Road is really uncanny, no wonder so few walk it. It’s likely just us and the Guardian’s legacy, along with a few geniuses from the Fated Ancient Sect capable of walking this path. All the way, we fought the manifestations of the Emperor Road, quite dull."
The elder rolled his eyes, "That’s still good. The manifestations later on are increasingly terrifying. If these beings were real and fought us, we might not have made it here."
"From here on, you must walk the rest alone. We are heading back."
The elder suddenly sighed, looking at Zhou Ye, increasingly satisfied, "Young fellow, the patriarchs all favor you. Our Pavilion hasn’t seen a Great Emperor emerge for several generations, you must strive forward."
Several other seniors in the sect each sent him their expectations, speaking a great deal to Zhou Ye.
Only when Zhou Ye looked utterly despondent did they fall silent, fearing that more words might affect the child’s prospects.
"No more words, we’re leaving!"
The elder cried out, immediately dropping out of the Emperor Road.
Actively withdrawing from the Emperor Road.
Their figures flickered and vanished.
On this long Emperor Road, some were knocked off the road; those who perished are forever left on the road, unable to enter reincarnation.
But if one survives, they have a chance to leave the road.
Besides, one can reach the end and choose to actively withdraw, not participating in the confrontation at the Emperor Road’s peak.
Just like the few before.
Because once moving further forward, one must ascend to the peak of the Xuanhuang Emperor Road.
There, a battle will inevitably occur among everyone, regardless of acquaintance.
They originally came to escort Zhou Ye, naturally unwilling to join that fight.
Thus, they could only choose to exit at this point.
Generally speaking, those truly walking the Emperor Road persevere to the end.
Instances such as theirs are rare.
After the others left, Zhou Ye suddenly sighed, loud in his grievance, "Why did the heavens make me born in this era? I don’t want to walk anymore, can’t go on!"
Zhou Ye shouted loudly, venting his inner frustration.
But after he yelled, he turned around suddenly, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Miss Li, you’ve come too..."
Zhou Ye greeted.
Seeing a young woman in white clothes standing behind, with a peculiar look directed at Zhou Ye.
Upon hearing his greeting, Li Feixuan also smiled slightly, "Little Daoist’s speed sure is fast."
Zhou Ye could only chuckle awkwardly.
Embarrassed to realize he was too caught up in cursing this horrid world to notice anyone arriving.
Yet truth be told, Li Feixuan’s extraordinary talent was becoming increasingly profound after walking this Destiny Emperor Road.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have missed her approach.
Looking at the Divine Mountain shrouded in divine light and mist, Zhou Ye softly asked, "Miss Li, have you seen the river of destiny?"
Li Feixuan nodded gently, "Vast and magnificent."
Zhou Ye spoke with deep eyes, "You’re not in despair?"
Li Feixuan smiled warmly, sunlight glinting in her beautiful eyes, "I’m looking forward."
Zhou Ye shuddered, took two steps aside, and asked curiously, "Are you sure we saw the same thing?"
Li Feixuan looked at Zhou Ye, puzzled, "You haven’t said what you saw."
Zhou Ye was silent, pondering if they hadn’t seen the same destiny?
How strange.
While they talked, two more people came up from behind.
One old man was peculiar with a single arm and single eye.
Another was an elderly woman with a face full of pockmarks, looking much like a market butcher, hardly relatable to someone mastering the Fated Dao.
Originally, Zhou Ye thought that Ziwei Saint Heir would walk the Destiny Emperor Road, but strangely chose the Star Emperor Road.
Though Ziwei Doushu is derived from ancient star observations, it ultimately involves destiny.
Zhou Ye squinted, maybe Ziwei Saint Heir foresaw something and hence opted not for this road.
Alas.
The great tides of the future.
It spirals into chaos.
Zhou Ye rubbed his temples, beginning to ascend.
