Strife

Outside the Human Race's 57th City.

Zhou Tong and the Great Sage Qinghuang walked out of the Chaos Small World together.

The Great Sage Qinghuang said, "This Chaos Small World is extremely precious. With the addition of this Small World, the foundation of our human race will increase significantly. On behalf of the future human race, I thank you!"

"Senior, you flatter me. I am also a member of the human race, and the prosperity of the human race is to my liking." Zhou Tong.

The Great Sage Qinghuang examined Zhou Tong carefully and said, "I never expected that the Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body in this Lifetime would be so different from before..."

As the protector of the Human Ancient Road, the Great Sage Qinghuang naturally knew very well what kind of people the Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body of each generation was.

He can say with certainty that the Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body of all generations have always been the kind who only respect bloodline. Almost none of them consider themselves human and want to completely separate their lineage from the human race. Just like the God Race in history, they are domineering and arrogant to the point of madness.

It's truly rare to encounter someone with such an "alternative" mindset as Zhou Tong, the Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body.

"In fact, many cultivators, after passing through the Human Race Fifty City, will choose to go to other ancient roads to try to collide with the geniuses of different ancient roads." After a moment of silence, the Great Sage Qinghuang suddenly said.

"Senior wants me to leave the Human Ancient Road?" Zhou Tong asked with a smile.

"Even if you don't leave, the road ahead probably won't improve you much." The Great Sage Qinghuang was quite speechless.

If you bring the Azure Emperor Weapon out, who dares to stop you?

On the Human Ancient Road, everyone will avoid you. What good will it do you to stay here any longer?

Moreover, allowing someone like you, carrying Imperial Weapon, to Human Ancient Road would be a great disadvantage to other prodigies. Rather than that, it would be better to let you wreak havoc on the ancient roads of other races, at least allowing the human race to demonstrate its power.

People are now traveling on other ancient Human Ancient Road, such as a prodigy from the God Race who has been traveling on the Human Ancient Road and has even earned the title of "Goddess".

Then, the Great Sage Qinghuang continued, "By the way, I have some news to tell you. As far as I know, a Scripture Cave has been discovered near the sixty cities of the God Clan Ancient Road. I don't know if it was left by the Amitabha Great Emperor or the Taiyin Human Emperor. Would you like to take a trip there?"

This is blatant bribery.

The Great Sage Qinghuang believed that any cultivator who embarked on the Human Ancient Road would be restless upon hearing news of Amitabha Buddha and the Taiyin Human Emperor, and would definitely go to investigate.

"The Amitabha Great Emperor and the Taiyin Human Emperor?" Zhou Tong was taken aback. Could it be that the Taiyin Human Emperor's Divine Thought resided on the God Clan Ancient Road?

"If I'm not here, I wonder who you would notify, senior?" Zhou Tong asked in a deep voice.

"If you weren't here, the message would naturally have been sent to the Human King and the Great Demon God," the Great Sage Qinghuang laughed. "There are countless paths leading to that final checkpoint. The Human Ancient Road is one, but there are also the Demon Clan Ancient Road, the God Clan Ancient Road, and even the sparsely populated Holy Spirit Lineage has its own path."

"There is also competition between the ancient paths. Prodigies from other ancient paths often come to our Human Ancient Road for trials, vying for our human race's Fortune; naturally, our human race will also send some prodigies to other ancient paths to vie for their Fortune."

Although the Great Sage Qinghuang spoke lightly, he thoroughly revealed the cruelty of the Ancient Starry Road.

The most brutal place in the struggle for Emperor's Path is the Ancient Starry Road.

This place truly embodies the spirit of "struggle" in the Emperor's Path.

Each ancient route not only competes internally, but also seeks resources from other ancient routes.

Only those who survive to the end in this competitive environment are qualified to ascend to the supreme imperial throne.

"The scripture repository discovered near the God Clan Ancient Road is almost certainly left by our human Great Emperor. Our human race will naturally not shirk its responsibility and must get a share of it." Great Sage Qinghuang spoke, he took out a jade piece and handed it to Zhou Tong, on which was a coordinate.

"I've given you the coordinates. Whether you want to use them or not is up to you. The Divine Light Platform can be used not only on our Human Ancient Road, but also to other places as long as you have the coordinates. However, time is a bit tight. The restrictions there can hold for the next half month, but after that, it's uncertain," the Great Sage Qinghuang said in conclusion.

"The God Clan Ancient Road... So that's where the Divine Thought of the Taiyin Human Emperor resides; I was wondering why I hadn't found a single trace of the Taiyin Human Emperor after searching for so long near the Human Ancient Road. Perhaps the Taiyin Human Emperor or Amitabha Buddha didn't take the human road back then, but the God Race road?" Zhou Tong noted down the coordinates.

"Speaking of which, after I advanced to Saint King, I feel like I have gained a bit more control over the Reincarnation Mirror." Zhou Tong had some vague thoughts in his mind. He quietly closed his eyes and carefully sensed the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass True Fate Body that he had previously "thrown out" through the Reincarnation Mirror.

The Myriad Heavens realms and timelines shrouded Zhou Tong's mind like a mist. Relying on the Reincarnation Mirror and his connection with the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, he vaguely and indistinctly sensed something.

He could sense that his Nine-Leaf Sword Grass True Fate Body seemed to have been rooted in some unknown place, growing on its own.

"It's a little clearer now, but I still don't know exactly where it is..." Zhou Tong was still somewhat speechless.

Could it be that my Nine-Leaf Sword Grass True Fate is like that of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass from the Immortal Ancient Era, rooted in one place and never moving an inch in its entire life?

"Perhaps, if I were to reincarnate again, I could see something more?" Zhou Tong didn't have many concerns about this and acted on his idea immediately.

He looked at one corner of his Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings, where his other true destiny lay— the Thunder Emperor.

"Go!" Zhou Tong activated the Reincarnation Mirror directly.

"Buzz!"

Almost instantly, all of Zhou Tong's holy power was absorbed by the Reincarnation Mirror.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling ray of light shot out from the surface of the Reincarnation Mirror and landed on the Thunder Emperor.

Without a sound, the Thunder Emperor transformed into light and disappeared into the Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings.

The whole process was exactly the same as when the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass disappeared.

"When I activated the Reincarnation Mirror at the Saint stage, I needed to consume all my Saintly Power. Does it still require all my Saintly Power at the Saint King stage?" Zhou Tong was speechless. "Moreover... this vague feeling is exactly the same as the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass's situation!!"

He knew very well what these signs meant.

This means that he has not only failed to grasp the true core of the Reincarnation Mirror, but has not even truly figured out how to use this divine artifact.

"I refuse to believe this nonsense! If the Saint King doesn't work, then the Great Sage will; if the Great Sage doesn't work, then the Great Emperor!" Zhou Tong was determined to figure out how to use the Reincarnation Mirror.

On the other side, the Great Sage Qinghuang handed the coordinates to Zhou Tong and then departed.

Thus, all the grudges between Zhou Tong, Di Tian, and the Fifty-Seventh City Guiding Envoy came to an end in this city, Myriad Heavens also spread the news to the depths of the ancient road.

On this day, the entire Human Ancient Road was violently shaken. The name of the Hegemon Body was heard in both the front and back roads. He fought against three opponents and killed Di Tian, Qingshi the Immortal, and the Guiding Envoy the Fifty-Seventh City in one battle. The name of the Overlord shook the ancient road.

This was an extremely terrifying storm, stirring up endless turmoil along the Human Ancient Road.

Previously, Zhou Tong's existence only led the other prodigies on the road to believe that he, like Di Tian and the others, was competing to become the strongest on this ancient road; but now, the result of this battle has left everyone speechless.

In a sense, this battle completely changed the landscape of the Human Ancient Road.

With the fall of Di Tian and Qingshi the Immortal, even the Great Demon God, Tianyi, had to avoid the Overlord and enter some side paths, no longer daring to linger on the main road.

From this point on, the Human Ancient Road was dominated by the Overlord, who reigned supreme over the world.
