188: Ancient Freaks

In front of Myriad Dao Cliff, Lin Huan's aura gradually stabilized at the fourth heaven of the Saint King Realm.

He opened his eyes, and the Chaos light in them receded, adding a deeper profoundness.

He once again cast his Divine Sense towards the area where he had sensed the fluctuations of “Wuji” or “Guiji”.

However, that area seemed to be blocked by an invisible membrane, making it difficult for him to delve deeper with his current Realm and comprehension of Primal Origin.

"Is my Realm insufficient, or has the Opportunity not arrived yet?"

Lin Huan frowned slightly but was not discouraged.

He stood up, took one last look at the vast Myriad Dao Cliff, and turned to leave.

His comprehension here had temporarily come to an end; he needed more battles and Opportunities to solidify his Foundation and further awaken his Primal Origin Body.

His next goal was the rumored “Primal Ancient Palace” deep within the Emperors Road.

According to scattered ancient records, it was an ancient hall that appeared with the manifestation of the Emperors Road, intricately linked to the Dao of Primal Origin.

At the edge of the Burial Sword Star Domain.

Lin Hao sat cross-legged on a massive meteorite, with the Dust-Severing Sword resting across his knees.

He had not delved deeper into the Star Domain but was instead digesting and absorbing the Legacy of that wisp of Primordial Sword Soul.

Contained within the Sword Soul was an ancient Sword Emperor's lifelong comprehension of the Dao of the Sword, not specific sword moves, but a kind of “Sword Heart”—pure, singular, cutting through all illusions, reaching the true essence of the Dao of the Sword.

This perfectly matched Lin Hao's Supreme Sword Body and Supreme Sword Bone, as if they were originally from the same Origin.

His aura became increasingly restrained, like a peerless divine weapon hidden in its scabbard, its edge not apparent, yet containing earth-shattering sharpness.

An occasional wisp of Sword Intent that leaked from his body could easily cut through the Void Realm, lingering for a long time.

"My Dao of the Sword should be like this."

Lin Hao slowly opened his eyes, and two invisible small swords seemed to flash within them.

He felt his Sword Heart become even more transparent, and his understanding of the name “Dust-Severing” deepened by another layer.

What was severed was not only worldly ties but also all mists, shackles, and illusions on the path of cultivation, leaving only the original heart, only one sword.

He stood up, his gaze cast towards the endless darkness beyond the Star Domain.

It was time to leave this place and go deeper into the Emperors Road to verify his Dao with the sword in his hand.

Ancient Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races, Godfall Canyon.

Ye Chen stood atop the skull of a God Race skeleton as massive as a mountain range.

This skeleton was clearly incredibly powerful in life; even after countless years since its death, the bones remained crystal clear like jade, emitting a faint pressure.

Ye Chen's Ancient Desolate Sacred Body resonated strongly here; he could feel that the residual essence blood and Battle Intent in this God Race skeleton would greatly benefit the evolution of his Sacred Body.

He let out a low roar, fully activating his Ancient Desolate Sacred Body, his golden Qi and blood burning like flames around him, pressing his hands onto the skull, forcibly extracting the residual divine essence within!

Buzz!

The skeleton vibrated, and a majestic and ancient power surged into Ye Chen's body along his arms!

This power was incredibly violent, carrying the pride and unyielding Battle Intent of the God Race, fiercely impacting his Meridians and Divine Soul!

Ye Chen grunted, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were wild, and he held on stubbornly.

The Ancient Desolate Sacred Body was like a furnace, frantically refining this external power, transforming it into the purest Sacred Body Qi and blood.

His body groaned under the unbearable burden, but his aura grew stronger bit by bit in the pain, and the golden light around him became increasingly dazzling, as if about to condense into a tangible golden battle armor.

Outside the Corridor of Time and Space.

Lin Yun's figure emerged, his aura becoming more ethereal, his Star Heavy Pupils spinning in his eyes, as if containing endless stellar vortices.

After refining the eternal star core, his Star Heavy Pupils not only greatly increased in pupil power but also became several times more sensitive to the power of time and space.

He could even faintly see some future time fragments, though blurry, enough to give him an early warning before a crisis struck.

He looked towards the depths of the corridor, where there were more dangerous time-space traps and more precious time-space treasures, but he did not plan to go deeper for now.

He sensed a powerful stellar fluctuation calling to him from ahead on the Emperors Road, seemingly related to some hidden ability of his heavy pupils.

In the Flying Immortal Pool.

Lin Qingyi and Jiang Li simultaneously opened their eyes, immortal light flowing within them, and sharp Sword Intent flashed past.

They successfully absorbed that wisp of first-generation Flying Immortal Sword Intent; although they hadn't fully mastered it, they had planted its seed within their own Flying Immortal Origin, which would gradually blossom with brilliance as their cultivation improved.

Their auras became even more ethereal; when they joined forces, the Flying immortal light blended more perfectly, doubling its power.

They exchanged smiles, flew out of the Immortal Pool hand in hand, transforming into two astonishing immortal rainbows, and disappeared into the depths of the ruins, continuing to pursue the higher mysteries of the Flying Immortal Body.

Center of the Chaos Fire Domain.

The Chaos Fire Lotus finally recognized Lin Ziyan and slowly merged into her Violet Extreme Heavenly Fire Origin.

In an instant, her Violet Extreme Heavenly Fire seemed to undergo a qualitative change; its color became deeper, and Chaos Qi faintly flowed within the flames, causing its power to surge!

The flames burning around her could even briefly incinerate space!

She contentedly looked at the new flames she controlled, naming them “Chaos Violet Extreme Heavenly Fire”.

With her strength greatly increased, she confidently rushed deeper into the Fire Domain, where a wisp of “Innate Fire Spirit” from the time of creation was rumored to be dormant.

Small island in the center of the Myriad Poison Marshland.

Lin Yao finally succeeded in collecting the Nine-Orifice Poison Dragon Grass and initially tempered its overbearing toxicity with his Myriad Medicine Body.

He did not leave immediately but gazed intently at the bottom of the marsh.

There, he sensed an even more subtle yet more majestic life aura, seemingly the dormant skeleton of a Primordial Poison Dragon!

If he could obtain its poison sac and Dragon Pearl, it would be an unimaginable nourishment for his Myriad Medicine Body...Mid-section of the Emperors Road, Godfall Ancient Path.

This was an ancient path floating between shattered stars, rumored to be where gods once fell, hence its name.

The ancient path was fraught with danger, not only inhabited by powerful Starry Sky Behemoths but also retaining various bizarre Divine Ability Restrictions.

At this moment, an earth-shattering battle was erupting on the ancient path.

One side of the battle consisted of three ancient freaks from different Immortal Powers; their auras were ancient and powerful, and when they joined forces, Laws roared and Divine Abilities covered the sky.

Their opponent was only one person—Yang Yan!

He stood in the center of the ancient path, like a human sun, his Solar Divine Body pushed to its limit, endless light and heat erupting from his body, illuminating the dim ancient path brightly!

He wielded a battle spear crafted from Solar Essence Gold; each swing carried True Sun Fire capable of burning mountains, boiling seas, and purifying everything!

The three ancient freaks were extremely powerful and possessed strange methods, but in front of Yang Yan's utterly dominant and supremely pure True Sun Fire, their Divine Abilities were often suppressed and purified.

Yang Yan grew stronger with each clash; wherever his battle spear pointed, the Void Realm was scorched and distorted, and he, fighting alone against the three ancient freaks, did not fall into a disadvantage in the slightest!

"The Solar Divine Body truly lives up to its reputation! But today, you are destined to fall here, and the Origin of your divine body will pave the way for our Great Dao!"

An ancient freak said coldly, conjuring an ancient forbidden artifact emitting a chilling aura, attempting to suppress the True Sun Fire.

Yang Yan laughed wildly: "Mere goblins and monsters dare to covet the light of the sun? Burn for me!"

A true sun seemed to burn within him, and his battle spear erupted with billions of feet of light, transforming into a torrent of flames that tore through the star river, sweeping towards the three of them!

The battle entered a fierce stage, and the entire Godfall Ancient Path trembled.

Meanwhile, in other unknown corners of the Emperors Road.

Moon Radiance absorbed the supreme Yin Origin from the Grand Yin Origin Eye, and the illusory full moon behind her became increasingly solid.

Lin Zhan awakened his Azure Dragon Sacred Body Bloodline in the Azure Dragon Ancestral Land, triggering the phenomenon of ten thousand Dragons paying homage.

Lin Feng deduced Myriad Laws within the Innate Dao Rhyme vortex, his body merging with the Dao, his aura becoming increasingly unfathomable.

The Lin family's Prodigies, like the most dazzling stars in the night sky, each shone and rapidly rose on the bloody and glorious path of the Emperors Road.

Their reputations, accompanied by brilliant battle achievements, spread like a storm to every corner of the Emperors Road, attracting countless exclamations, envy, and... more hidden and fatal murderous intent.

Some truly ancient and terrifying existences, some Emperor-level figures from Life Forbidden Zones or those who had sealed themselves until this generation, also began to turn their attention to these rising “new stars”.

The struggle on the Emperors Road was past its halfway point.
