Reunion with Ye Fan

The Tenth City the Human Ancient Road.

"A stone ship crashed down from beyond the realm, accompanied by Wind and Thunder, and many people are giving chase. It is suspected that the Holy Spirit Lineage is preparing to attack our Human Ancient Road."

"A riot broke out in a mountain range beneath the Divine City. Ancient beasts fought fiercely, and holy might permeated the area, turning the region into a river of blood. Several ancient beasts that were friendly to humans were killed and replaced by ambitious behemoths."

"Within the divine star, ancient beasts have emerged, slaughtering human trial participants one after another. Many promising human talents have even been killed here."

"Deep within the Ancient Starry Road, an ancient human pass was attacked and destroyed, resulting in the deaths of everyone in the Holy City, Guiding Envoy."

One piece of bad news after another spread throughout the Human Race Tenth City, and panic was spreading rapidly.

Many cultivators along the way retreated to the Human Race Tenth City, all looking worried, unsure of what they would face next. Many also feared that the Tenth City would be destroyed like the previous one.

"The situation is too tense..." Ye Fan, riding his Dragon Horse, walked through the Tenth City, and all he heard were these kinds of words, which made him unconsciously tense as well.

"Ugh!!" In the next instant, the golden blood within Ye Fan's body surged and churned uncontrollably. Wisps of golden battle aura spread from his body, drawing the attention of countless passersby.

"What are you doing?" Dragon Horse was somewhat astonished, having never seen Ye Fan act like this before.

Ye Fan suppressed his boiling blood, a hint of joy flashing across his face, but then a sense of complexity and helplessness set in.

He transmitted his voice to Dragon Horse and said, "It's alright, come with me."

Ye Fan led Dragon Horse through a maze of twists and turns, finally arriving at a relatively secluded restaurant in the Tenth City. After going upstairs, the two quickly entered a private room.

"Ye Fan, it's been a long time. You've indeed come to the Human Ancient Road." Zhou Tong sat at the table and casually waved his hand, gesturing for Ye Fan to take a seat.

"Zhou Tong, you really are the Overlord of the ancient road. But didn't you already go to the back? Can you return to the ancient road at will?" Ye Fan calmed the agitation in his blood and sat down directly opposite Zhou Tong.

"No one can return at will unless they reach the Endpoint. Those who can return at will are either Guiding Envoy violate regulations, or they are cultivators who have made great contributions to the ancient road and obtained something like the Divine Light Platform." Zhou Tong casually picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

"Then why did you suddenly come back? Did you come specifically to see me?" Ye Fan asked with a smile.

He didn't believe Zhou Tong had come back specifically to visit him; there was probably something else going on.

"You only brought this broken horse with you? Where's Zi Xia? Has the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo yet?" Zhou Tong asked.

"Broken horse?" The Dragon Horse beside him was a little angry. Laozi was a naturally divine Dragon Horse, and this word "broken horse" really made him angry. He was an unruly and untamed man and wanted to kick Zhou Tong.

But seeing Zhou Tong's unfathomable aura, he suppressed his emotions.

Ye Fan was also taken aback, but then he understood somewhat. He looked at Zhou Tong and thought to himself, "He's not as strong as I thought. He's still concerned about the Dark Turmoil!"

In that instant, Ye Fan felt as if he understood why Zhou Tong had returned.

That is, once he calmed down and learned about the Dark Turmoil, he was eager to know if the Wu Shi the Great had any backup plans to quell the unrest.

"Zi Xia stayed in the Purple Mansion Holy Land, as for the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo... we haven't seen any hope for it all these years." Ye Fan shook his head helplessly, picked up the wine pot, filled a cup, and drank it all in one gulp.

"It seems we can't count on the line with the Wu Shi the Great Wushi for the future..." Zhou Tong thought to himself.

Thinking about this, Zhou Tong also felt a sense of frustration.

He had been planning for so long for Wu Shi the Great's backup plan, but he was always stuck at this crucial point and could never see the final result.

"The Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo are unreliable, Wu Shi the Great is also unreliable. In the future Dark Turmoil, I can only truly rely on myself! With my current methods and cultivation speed, I might be able to get involved in the future." Zhou Tong took a deep breath. He no longer thought about relying on external forces, but rather on his own strength.

Zhou Tong's cultivation speed is very fast, extremely fast!

The simultaneous cultivation of the Immortal Ancient Method, the Chaotic Ancient Method, and the Sky Shrouding Method allows him to intuitively examine the essence of cultivation from three different perspectives at each realm, which inevitably leads to a meteoric increase in his cultivation speed.

Moreover, his Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings contain branches of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, as well as the Bodhi Tree and numerous Immortal Divine Medicine, meaning he is constantly nourished by these Immortal Divine Medicine; in particular, the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Bodhi Tree are extremely effective at enhancing the efficiency of enlightenment.

Furthermore, there are several Holy Spirit within the Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings. Even casually intercepting a portion of the Great Dao Fortune bestowed by the Holy Spirit nurtured by heaven and earth would be enough to further accelerate Zhou Tong's cultivation speed.

It can be said that if he hadn't taken the Battle Immortal Path, which requires a lot of fighting, and if he hadn't intentionally raised his combat power to the limit at each level, given his cultivation speed, he would not only be at the Ninth Heaven of the Saint King now, but at least at the ninth level of the Great Saint Ninth Heaven realm.

Most importantly, Zhou Tong's biggest difference and advantage over other cultivators is that his understanding of divine restrictions is almost at the level of Great Emperor.

This means that he spends a relatively long period of time each day in Divine Prohibition State.

Divine Restriction is a comprehensive enhancement, not just in combat power, but also in thinking speed, comprehension, and sensitivity to the rules of the Great Dao...

If a cultivator were to comprehend the Dao in Divine Prohibition State for Dao Yi, the gains in that one day might surpass the results of two or three months of arduous cultivation in a normal state.

Zhou Tong can easily enter the Divine Prohibition State, which means his cultivation speed must be far beyond that of ordinary people.

With such a huge advantage, if he didn't consolidate his combat power and build up his foundation, and instead allowed himself to break through, Zhou Tong would have already broken the record for the cultivation speed of the Great Sage of the God Race, "Du Mu," as recorded in the written records, and might even have been able to approach the cultivation speed of the Desolate Heaven Emperor.

"During this turmoil, I must accumulate enough combat power. Next, I need to slow down my cultivation speed a bit. As long as I can comprehend the Forbidden Domain..." Zhou Tong had already made up his mind.

In the face of Dark Turmoil, nothing can be relied upon except oneself.

"Zhou Tong, did you really come back here just to ask me about the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo?" Ye Fan continued to ask.

"Not entirely!" Zhou Tong said softly. "I killed the Great Sage Cang Yan of the Fire Spirit Clan, and from his divine sense, I learned about some of their Holy Spirit Lineage's plans. In the next ten to forty years, an unimaginable upheaval will definitely break out in ten to forty human cities."

"I plan to use this experience to hone my combat skills and lay the foundation for my breakthrough to the Great Sage level."

Zhou Tong didn't think much of it and directly told Ye Fan what was going to happen next.

Anyway, it's going to happen soon, and even if I don't tell Ye Fan, he'll find out about it soon enough.

But Zhou Tong's words startled Ye Fan and his mount Dragon Horse.

Dragon Horse, who hadn't dared to interrupt, was also startled. "You mean, you killed a Great Sage of the Holy Spirit Lineage while in the body of Saint King?"

Ye Fan was also stunned. Although he had heard many legends about Zhou Tong after entering the Human Ancient Road, such as how he easily defeated another Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body before the First Pass of the Human Race, and how he swept through the saints and even killed the Saint King in the blood-red battlefield.

But he really didn't expect that Zhou Tong was already able to kill the Great Sage.

"Don't look at me like that. When I killed Cang Yan, I relied on external forces. I spent several days making arrangements." Zhou Tong shook his head. "After all, Cang Yan is a Great Sage who has one foot in Quasi -Quasi-Emperor realm. I don't have the combat power to kill him one-on-one right now."

"After several days of preparation, using the Nine Secrets: Zu, you set up the Emperor Formation to kill him?" Ye Fan suddenly realized. He knew that Zhou Tong Nine Secrets: Zu and extremely skilled in array formations. If given time to set up the array, destroying a Great Sage would indeed be very simple.

"More or less, but Cang Yan has been dead for several years, so there's no need to talk about him." Zhou Tong stared at Ye Fan. "Ye Fan, the teleportation array at the Feathered Divine Dynasty Ancestral Temple did indeed bring you back to Earth, right? What changes have occurred on Earth in recent years? Where are my family?"
