Chapter 1883 - 1880: Mountain Summit
Not long after Ye Xuan and the Senluo Girl left, a True Destiny Great Sage from the Xuanhuang Great World who had narrowly escaped the ambush of the nine quietly came to the place where Ye Xuan had just been.When he saw Jin Hai, Blood Child and the others lying on the ground, his expression instantly changed drastically.
These guys got worked over by someone?!
On the Primordial Emperor Road, who has that kind of strength?
Almost in an instant, this True Destiny Great Sage thought of Ye Xuan.
After all, back on Zhongxuan Mountain, Ye Xuan had once used just an avatar to fight alone against more than forty invincible existences.
But he still wasn’t sure whether Ye Xuan was walking the Primordial Emperor Road.
As he pondered, this person came to the side of the eight, and after a brief inspection, began to loot the spoils.
As for finishing these few off?
The idea never even crossed his mind; he could tell these people weren’t dead, and if he struck now, he would very likely wake them up, putting himself in a dangerous situation instead. Much better to strip them of their treasures and leave immediately.
Picking it up for free—what’s not to love?
The pitiful Jin Hai and the others, full of pride in their own status and looking down on people from the Lower Realm, were being completely robbed blind at this moment and still had no idea.
......
The Heavenly Dao Suppression loosened.
The Myriad Worlds surged once more.
With the opening of April, the long‑silent Emperor Road grew lively again.
But this time, those stepping onto the Emperor Road were ancient existences who had entered the Great Saint Realm.
Although their numbers were far from comparable to those of the Great Sage Realm, every single Great Saint Realm expert was an ancient existence whose name had been known for a long time.
Among them there was no lack of old monsters who had lived for over a million years.
They set foot on the Emperor Road to chase after those guys who had climbed it before April.
These Great Saint existences had basically all walked the Emperor Road before.
Only a few existed—top‑tier freaks like those in the Heavenly Domain—who had stepped into the Great Saint Realm within these ninety thousand years without ever having walked the Emperor Road.
But if they were to Ascend the Emperor Road, they would surely display an invincible might that swept the Emperor Road flat!
Their goal was the Peak of the Emperor Road.
However, above the Heavenly Domain, no powerful beings descended to the Lower Realm for a long time.
Someone, through communication with the Heavenly Domain, learned that the Heavenly Domain was in chaos at this moment.
War flames and strife.
This was entangled with the Revenge Lineage and the Double Emperors.
Whether it was the ancient inheritances of the Myriad Worlds, or the Immortal Sacred Lands above the Heavenly Domain, none dared take sides lightly; they chose to sit on the fence and watch.
On one side was the mysterious and powerful Revenge Lineage, on the other the Double Emperors who stood in might upon the Peak of the Myriad Worlds.
Neither of these were forces they could afford to provoke.
If they chose the wrong side, the painstaking inheritances of countless generations might well be reduced to bubbles.
So the best method was not to choose a side.
But even so, they still couldn’t descend to the Lower Realm at the first opportunity.
At this critical juncture, Empress Changxi made a move.
A giant hand thrust out from the Empress Palace, crossing the Ninth Layer Heaven and striking directly at the largest Heavenly Domain Gate, seeking to blast it open.
Yet at the same time, from the depths of the Heavenly Domain, another giant hand thrust out as well—withered and shriveled, like the palm of a dried corpse—tearing through the sky to collide with that hand from the Empress Palace.
Boom!
The Thirty-Three Heavens of the Heavenly Domain trembled violently.
But the aftershock of that power caused all the Heavenly Domain Gates of the Thirty-Three Heavens to open!
One ancient existence after another at the Great Saint Realm took the opportunity to descend to the Lower Realm.
Unexpectedly, on the side of the Revenge Lineage, no one came out to stop them.
But when the Great Saints under the Double Emperors began to descend, the flames of war were ignited once again.
It turned out that from the beginning, the Revenge Lineage had been targeting the Great Saints under the Double Emperors!
This made the other ancient inheritances who had not taken sides feel relieved; this was best, so they wouldn’t get caught in the crossfire.
This resulted in only a scant few powerhouses descending from the Heavenly Domain to the Lower Realm.
Instead, it was the ancient existences awakening from the various Great Worlds that were more numerous.
These powerhouses also saw an opportunity and chose to head straight for the Emperor Road.
If the people from the Heavenly Domain weren’t coming, they would have a better chance of charging to the Peak of the Emperor Road.
After all, they had all heard that in the Heavenly Domain there were terrifyingly monstrous geniuses.
Some had been sent up from the Lower Realm, and some were native freaks of the Heavenly Domain itself.
These monsters had never suffered the Heavenly Dao Suppression; they could charge toward the Peak from the very beginning.
Unlike those from the Lower Realm, whose path was sealed from the start.
No matter how strong they were, they could not break through the barrier of Supreme.
Except for a unique existence like Qiao Xinyu, who could ignore the Heavenly Dao Suppression and continue to break through in Realm, everyone else could only advance step by step as the Heavenly Dao Suppression was gradually lifted.
This was also why whenever Heavenly Domain monsters were mentioned, people would subconsciously feel they could crush existences from the Lower Realm.
If the Gu Family had chosen to send Gu Changge into the Heavenly Domain, Gu Changge would one hundred percent already have stepped into the Realm of Great Emperor.
But the Gu Family did not do so, because they did not trust the Double Emperors.
The birth of an Immortal Body would inevitably draw the covetous gaze of countless people.
As a Longevity Family, they naturally had countless enemies as well.
Those enemies would surely fix their gaze on Gu Changge.
The Gu Family didn’t dare gamble on what the Double Emperors might think—if the Double Emperors didn’t want to see Gu Changge and chose to strike and erase him, in the Heavenly Domain there would be no one who could stop them!
Whereas in the Lower Realm, it would in fact be safer.
This was the fundamental reason why many forces would rather hide away the geniuses of their clan than send them to the Heavenly Domain.
At this very moment.
On the Three Thousand Emperor Paths.
The time of April had sent countless lives to the Netherworld.
But it had also granted those who survived a kind of sublimation and transformation.
Another two months passed.
It had already been half a year since the Emperor Road opened.
One Great Saint Realm powerhouse after another had basically reached the latter half of the Emperor Road.
The Kill Emperor Road.
Someone had already reached its end.
It was a mysterious woman carrying three blades on her back, dressed in a black robe and wearing a black veil hat.
By the time she reached the end of the Kill Emperor Road, the killing intent on this mysterious woman’s body had almost formed an Asura Purgatory, terrifying to the extreme.
Looking closely, one could see that above her three blades, a fourth blade seemed faintly about to manifest.
The mysterious woman slightly raised her head, looking at the towering Divine Mountain at the end.
Before her was a stretch of spotless white steps.
At a glance, there were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety‑nine steps.
"If I reach the mountaintop, I can see the Peak of the Emperor Road of the Xuanhuang Great World?"
The woman whispered softly, a faint smile appearing on her cold face.
The woman was none other than Qiao Xinyu.
Qiao Xinyu did not rush to climb the mountain; instead, she leaped up onto a Primordial Chaos Stone above the Emperor Road, sat cross‑legged there, as if waiting for someone.
Three days later, a defiant youth wearing short shirt and shorts, with a head of fluffy long hair flying unruly behind him, came swaggering step by step.
He grinned, fangs bared, a vicious look in his eyes.
At this moment he suddenly halted, raised his head to look at Qiao Xinyu atop the Primordial Chaos Stone, his smile reined in as he scratched his head in some irritation and said, "You win."
Qiao Xinyu opened her eyes, glanced down at the East Desolate Wolf, then floated lightly to the ground and walked toward the mountaintop without looking back, saying blandly, "Don’t keep Emperor Ye waiting too long."
The East Desolate Wolf watched Qiao Xinyu’s back, and for once he didn’t open his mouth to snipe at her.
For a simple reason.
On the Kill Emperor Road, he had come close to falling several times.
If not for Qiao Xinyu’s help, he would really be dead.
He would never have had the chance to later counter‑kill Gu Changfeng.
