Golden Ancient Road
After completely eliminating the hidden dangers of the Human Ancient Road, Zhou Tong continued on his way. Instead of proceeding step by step, he directly used the Divine Light Platform to travel.
Meanwhile, the Holy Spirit Lineage, having learned of this news, was filled with rage.
They had finally managed to persuade the Imperial Clan to activate the Ancient Emperor Weapon to attack the human race, but Zhou Tong pulled a fatal blow. Not only did the royal family leave, but he also completely opened those Demon Well.
"Damn Zhou Tong! We finally reached an agreement with the Golden Clan to have them bring their Ancient Emperor Weapon, and he just left!!" Upon hearing this news, the Great Might Sacred Spirit was furious.
They had been preparing for so long to completely defeat the human race and to take away the Heaven Mending Technique, and the core of all this lay with Zhou Tong alone.
But now, Zhou Tong is gone!!
He's gone!
This means that all the efforts made by the Holy Spirit Lineage and the Light Clan have gone to waste.
"Go and find out where Zhou Tong went!" The Great Might Sacred Spirit immediately prepared to send his subordinate Holy Spirit to gather information and find out where Zhou Tong was.
Not only the Holy Spirit Lineage, but also the Light Clan and the Golden Clan in the starry sky looked grim.
The Light Clan had a grudge against Zhou Tong from the previous battle.
The Golden Clan, on the other hand, had a personal grudge against Zhou Tong; their princess had been publicly beaten by Zhou Tong in Big Dipper. In fact, Zhou Tong played a significant role in the Golden Clan's decision to send troops.
After a full month, news finally came back.
"The Golden Seven Cities? He actually appeared there? That makes sense. If he wants to continue seeking opponents to hone his skills, only the Golden Ancient Road and the Mythological Ancient Road will do." The Great Might Sacred Spirit was somewhat surprised, but quickly nodded.
The Golden Seven Cities is an ancient city built in ancient times and still standing today.
This is one of the few ancient cities on the Golden Ancient Road. Over the long years, the road has long been abandoned, and the corresponding cities have been destroyed by various powerful creatures.
What's remarkable is that the Golden Seven Cities are not only well-preserved, but also still inhabited.
"Notify the Light Clan and the Golden Clan to attack together. This time, we must completely reclaim the secret technique of our ancient ancestor!" The Great Might Sacred Spirit's voice was cold.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in the Golden Seven Cities.
This is a magnificent ancient city, seemingly cast entirely in gold, radiating a dazzling golden light against the starry sky. From afar, it appears radiant and full of vitality, brimming with life.
"What an amazing Golden Seven Cities!" Zhou Tong exclaimed upon arriving at the place, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
This city is ever-changing, with Myriad Daos Star River seemingly flowing beneath it. Approaching even slightly, one can feel a vast, majestic atmosphere, like a surging, expansive lake or sea, filled with the essence of heaven and earth, nourishing the very soul.
"It's a pity, though. Such a beautiful city has gradually faded away, and there are hardly any people left." Zhou Tong stepped into the golden city, where the streets were deserted.
This is not the era of the original story; news of the Immortal Divine Medicine has not yet spread, so this city is almost deserted and devoid of people. The city's population is probably less than ten thousand.
As you walk along the road, you can see that many of the palaces that were originally floating in the air have fallen to the ground, and some areas have been cleared away and turned into a Medicine Garden.
Entering the city, the scene is completely different from what you see outside.
From the outside, the city appears majestic, vast, and magnificent, but once you step inside, you realize that the interior is just like a small village, with buildings in a chaotic state.
"There haven't been any outsiders here for a long time!" A small old man with white hair and beard appeared in front of Zhou Tong without him noticing.
"Greetings, senior!!" Zhou Tong was somewhat surprised, not expecting to see a peak Great Sage here.
"I'm getting old. I never expected that such a peerless genius like you would emerge in this generation. I'm afraid that the cultivation records of all ages will have to be changed because of you, and the Du Mu of the God Race will no longer be records!" The old man looked at Zhou Tong with great shock.
He possessed a secret technique that allowed him to roughly sense the marks on a cultivator's Life Wheel, with each mark representing one year of life. Just now, he was astonished to discover that Zhou Tong's Wheel Sea only had about thirty marks!
Although this method has some errors, the errors are definitely not high. With thirty scratches, even at the maximum error, this young man in front of us is no more than fifty years old.
"The Du Mu the God Race are not even recorded. The legendary Desolate Heaven Emperor was only fifty or sixty years old when he attained enlightenment! We, the later generations, are far inferior to our predecessors!" Zhou Tong shook his head.
He didn't want to compare himself to Du Mu of the God Race God Race. Du Mu's speed in cultivating to the peak of the Great Sage was indeed very fast, but he was stuck at that level for his entire life. Moreover, Zhou Tong was only in his early eighties, so breaking Du Mu's record would be a piece of cake for him.
"The Desolate Heaven Emperor is just a legend, and no one can say for sure whether he even exists. Let's not talk about that. Since ancient times, those who have come here have basically been here for that path!" The old man shook his head, gesturing for Zhou Tong to follow him, and then led the way.
"Senior, you are wise!" Zhou Tong followed the old man all the way, and finally arrived at the city center of the Golden Seven Cities.
There is a strangely shaped altar here, completely different from the teleportation altar Zhou Tong used when he traveled through the Human Ancient Road.
This is the oldest altar— the Mythological Altar, which can only be found on the Golden Ancient Road, and currently only a few are located in different Golden Cities.
This altar appears to be made from the corpses of gods and demons, with an extremely bizarre shape. It is engraved with scenes of All Gods falling, blood flowing for miles, the moon setting and stars sinking, and the Sun Emperor exploding, making it very different from other types of altars.
"It still retains some of the style from the Chaotic Ancient Era ..." Zhou Tong examined the altar carefully and made his judgment.
"Now that you've come this far, you should know the conditions for activating this altar!" The old man looked at Zhou Tong. "You must collect ten kinds of Ancient Blood."
"Don't worry, I'm well prepared!" Zhou Tong nodded and took out some bottles and jars containing spoils of war he had acquired over the years from killing opponents on the Ancient Starry Road, including the Essence Blood of various races.
Zhou Tong naturally sprinkled ten kinds of Ancient Blood onto it, and instantly the patterns on the altar seemed to come alive. All Gods were resurrected, the sun was destroyed and the moon was sunk, and the great star collapsed. It was a terrifying and boundless scene!
"Boom!"
In an instant, Zhou Tong was teleported by the altar to the Mythological Ancient Road, arriving at the most mysterious area deep within the Ancient Starry Road.
"Clang!!"
The moment Zhou Tong emerged from the Space Passage, he was immediately met with the most terrifying attack. A dazzling sword light descended from the sky, like a ray of light that World Creation in the chaos, brilliant and radiant.
