235: The pain that all the immortal emperors are unwilling to mention

Speaking of Ao Zhan’s memories.

After his Breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, the ten sealed Legacy memories that Ao Zhan had in Long Aotian’s Sea of Consciousness finally began to unseal.

Two of the ten sealed Legacy memories unsealed directly.

The moment the Seals were broken, it was as if two nuclear bombs had exploded consecutively in Long Aotian’s Sea of Consciousness, almost shattering it under the impact of the immense memories.

Fortunately, the entire Dragon Soul Power gifted by Ao Zhan was within his Sea of Consciousness, continuously being refined and absorbed by him. Not only did his Divine Soul grow stronger, but his Sea of Consciousness also proved to be not as fragile as he had imagined, managing to withstand the Impact of the two unsealed Legacy memories.

This made Long Aotian break out in a cold sweat.

He hadn't expected the unsealing of memories to be so dangerous. Luckily, only two Legacy memories had unsealed.

If even one more had unsealed, he had no doubt his Sea of Consciousness would have exploded, rendering him unable to use his Divine Sense ever again.

This would be equivalent to a Cultivator losing his eyes!

The consequences would be extremely severe!

Under the unsealing of the two Legacy memories, the massive influx of memories nearly shattered and exploded his Sea of Consciousness. With the Breakthrough and continuous improvement of his cultivation, the refining and absorption of Dragon Soul Power, and the unsealing of Legacy memories, the Sea of Consciousness expanded wildly under these three combined effects, only stopping after covering an area of ten billion li.

Ten billion li in the Lower Realm is equivalent to one hundred li in the Upper Realm.

One hundred million li equals one li!

The Upper Realm Plane is even more vast than the Lower Realm.

Upper Realm Cultivators possess even more Heaven-Defying abilities than Lower Realm Cultivators.

The two unsealed Legacy memories included all of Ao Zhan’s memories in the Immortal Realm and some memories of the Divine Realm. Long Aotian was overjoyed, as these were precisely the memories he needed at the moment.

With the unsealing of the memories, Long Aotian gained a more comprehensive understanding of the entire world and the entire Martial Arts World.

The Upper Realm that Lower Realm Cultivators Ascend to Immortality into is the Immortal Realm.

Above the Immortal Realm, there is also a Divine Realm!

As for whether there are even more Advanced Planes above the Divine Realm?

Long Aotian felt there were, but the two unsealed memories did not contain much information about the Divine Realm. From Ao Zhan’s unsealed memories, Long Aotian did not find a definitive answer.

Through the unsealed memories, Long Aotian also gained a completely new understanding of the Martial Arts system.

Lower Realm Cultivators have ten major cultivation Realms:

Vein Opening Realm, Foundation Establishment Realm, Spirit Spring Realm, Transformation Sea Realm, Golden Core Realm, Nascent Soul Realm, Out-of-Body Realm, Spirit Division Realm, Mahayana Realm, and Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

Each major Realm is further divided into nine minor Realms, commonly known as nine minor revolutions.

Immortal Realm Cultivators also have ten major cultivation Realms:

Human Immortal Realm, Earth Immortal Realm, Heavenly Immortal Realm, Taiyi Realm, Daluo Realm, Golden Immortal Realm, Hunyuan Realm, Immortal King Realm, Immortal Lord Realm, and Immortal Emperor Realm.

Each major Realm is further divided into four minor Realms: Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Great Perfection Stage.

As for the Divine Realm?

Its cultivation Realms also have ten major Realms:

Divine Soldier Realm, God General Realm, True God Realm, Heavenly God Realm, Golden God Realm, Thousand Sovereign Realm, Wan Tong Realm, God King Realm, God King Realm, and God-Emperor Realm.

Each major Realm is also divided into four minor Realms: Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Great Perfection Stage.

It is worth mentioning that precisely because these two unsealed Legacy memories contained some Divine Realm memories, Long Aotian learned some secrets that even Immortal Emperor powerhouses of the Immortal Realm did not know.

At the same time, due to these partially unsealed memories, Long Aotian also roughly guessed why Feng Zixian, as the supreme Immortal Emperor powerhouse of the Immortal Realm, still perished in the Immortal Realm and Reincarnated back.

This was undoubtedly an incredibly cruel question.

It involved Ascension!

Lower Realm Cultivators wishing to Ascend to the Immortal Realm generally reach the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage. After successfully Undergoing Tribulation through the Ascension Tribulation, the Heavenly Dao senses the successful Tribulation Transcendence, then reveals an Ascension Passage, directly pulling and transmitting them to the Ascension Pool in the Immortal Realm to receive the baptism of becoming an Immortal.

This is an incredibly fortunate and benevolent method of Ascension.

But what about Immortal Realm powerhouses who wish to Ascend to the Divine Realm?

There is no Ascension Passage for pulling and transmitting!

There is only one road, a road from beginning to end that is a mountain of corpses and a sea of bones.

This road is called the Godslaying Road!

Immortal Realm Cultivators prefer to call it the Road of No Return, or even the Road of Death!

Only Immortal Emperors who successfully navigate this road can set foot in the Divine Realm.

However, is this road so easy to cross?

It is clearly not that simple.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be called the Godslaying Road, the Road of No Return, or even the Road of Death.

Perhaps most Cultivators in the Immortal Realm only think that there are ferocious Yao Beasts blocking the way in the Godslaying Road, and seeing the mountains of corpses and sea of bones along the way, they dare not proceed further. But after the memories unsealed, the actual situation Long Aotian learned was:

The end of the Godslaying Road truly requires Godslaying!

The first Realm of Divine Realm Cultivators is the Divine Soldier Realm.

All Divine Cultivators who have just set foot in the Divine Realm will be ruthlessly conscripted into military service.

And the end of the Godslaying Road is the Divine Realm’s exclusive large-scale training ground!

What those Immortal Emperor powerhouses face after enduring countless hardships to reach the end of the Godslaying Road is the ruthless slaughter by the fierce soldiers of the Divine Soldier Realm of the Divine Realm.

Of course.

It's not a ruthless slaughter without rules, but rather a brutal situation where it's either you die or I die. Only by killing a fierce soldier of the Divine Soldier Realm from the Divine Realm can one survive and truly set foot in the Divine Realm.

This is the rule of the Divine Realm training ground!

Facing a life-and-death struggle against a powerhouse one major Realm higher than oneself, the thought alone makes one's scalp tingle.

This method of Ascension is too terrifying and too brutal!

Immortal Emperors with ordinary combat power cannot even reach the end of the Godslaying Road, while Heaven-Defying Immortal Emperors, exhausted, reach the end of the Godslaying Road, only to face a life-and-death struggle against Divine Soldier Realm powerhouses.

It truly is a Road of No Return!

A Road of Death!

From Ao Zhan’s partial memories, Long Aotian also learned that out of a hundred million Immortal Emperor powerhouses attempting to cross the Godslaying Road, barely one might succeed.

The success rate is a horrifying one in a hundred million!

It truly fills Immortal Emperor powerhouses with despair.

Can one choose not to cross the Godslaying Road?

Of course, one can!

But then, one's Martial Dao would end at the Immortal Emperor Peak.

Moreover, Immortal Emperor Peak also has a lifespan limit.

Under the pressure of a lifespan limit, shrinking back means death, while pushing forward still offers a one in a hundred million chance of success.

And so, on the Godslaying Road, which spans an unknown number of li, mountains of corpses and seas of bones are found everywhere, burying an unknown number of hundreds of millions of Immortal Emperors...
