Returning to Big Dipper

The Ultimate Imperial Pass is extremely far from the Big Dipper, but it is nothing to Zhou Tong, who is already Quasi-Emperor.

He activated the Divine Light Platform and vanished from the ancient road.

The news that Zhou Tong had left the Ancient Starry Road spread rapidly throughout dozens of ancient roads, causing countless cultivators to breathe a sigh of relief. They felt as if a Mount Tai had been lifted from their hearts, making them feel much lighter.

Of course, some cultivators were also disappointed, especially some young people. They knew they had no hope of becoming Emperor's Path, so they hoped that Zhou Tong would stay on the ancient road to suppress the alien races of other ancient roads and promote the prestige of the human race.

Zhou Tong left behind countless legends in the starry sky, a glorious legacy, before drifting away.

The universe was vast and boundless. Just then, a dazzling universe was torn apart, and a divine platform emerged from the Void the Great carrying Zhou Tong.

In the distance, a vast array of Star Scripture could be seen, among which one emanated a powerful life force—this was the Big Dipper.

"The Divine Light Platform truly lives up to its reputation as a treasure meticulously crafted by the Human Ancient Road. Using it to traverse the starry sky is even faster and farther than if I directly tore through the starry sky..." Zhou Tong looked at the Divine Light Platform beside him, revealing a hint of amazement.

No wonder this item is the ultimate reward for human cultivators who come to train on the Human Ancient Road. Its ability to traverse the universe alone is no less than that of an ordinary Quasi-Emperor.

Zhou Tong knew very well that he needed to reach at least the Quasi-Emperor Fourth Heaven to physically traverse the universe and be on par with the Divine Light Platform, and only at the fifth level could he surpass it. This was assuming Zhou Tong himself was powerful; if he were an ordinary Quasi-Emperor, he would probably need to reach the sixth level to rival the Divine Light Platform.

"I have never looked down at the Big Dipper from this perspective before." Standing in the starry sky and looking down at the Big Dipper, Zhou Tong also had a strange feeling.

This ancient star slowly rotates in the starry sky, as if it were nurturing an unparalleled Divine Fetus. The life force here is simply too strong.

When he was weaker, Zhou Tong couldn't sense these things; but now that he has advanced to the Quasi-Emperor level, he can clearly perceive the awe-inspiring aura of this ancient star.

In particular, the five continents of the Eastern Wasteland, Central Plains, Western Desert, Northern Plains, and Southern Ridge resembled a giant Five-Colored Altar. Zhou Tong knew that this was the arrangement of the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate from the Mythological Era.

The Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate destroyed the Chaos Body and refined its physical form, which transformed it into these five continents.

"Although the Big Dipper is named the Burial Emperor Star, it can actually be considered an Emperor Star ..." Zhou Tong carefully examined the Great Dao Qi of the Big Dipper and was secretly surprised.

The Imperial Dao Laws contained within this ancient star far surpass Eternal Ancient Star, indicating that not only did later Great Emperor visit this place, but more importantly, this Star Scripture itself gave birth to many Great Emperor.

"The Ruthless Great Emperor, the Wu Shi the Great, and the Azure Emperor —just to my knowledge, these three Great Emperor were born here. Not to mention the Ancient Emperor who might have existed in the Primordial Era and the Mythological Era..."

"However, the Path to Immortality is about to open, and the struggle in the Big Dipper is no less intense than that on the Ancient Starry Road ..." Zhou Tong stood proudly in the starry sky, looking out over the countless battlefields of the entire ancient star, which were reflected in his eyes.

Over the years, the Big Dipper has become a massive battlefield, attracting races from all over the world and countless prodigies to fight here. In fact, even without stepping onto the Ancient Starry Road, staying in the Big Dipper would still result in no shortage of battles.

"Hmm... there are several Quasi-Emperor ' auras, but why are you doing this? The opening of the Path to Immortality is also the beginning of darkness. Coming here now is just courting death." Zhou Tong even sensed a trace of a quasi -Quasi-Emperor's aura. Clearly, some Quasi-Emperor had already descended upon Big Dipper, just to wait for the Path to Immortality to open.

"Forget it, let's go back to the Sun Star first." Zhou Tong took a step, and the Star Shift and the Star River receded. With just one step, he arrived outside the Sun Star of the Big Dipper.

Zhou Tong's gaze swept across the area, and he immediately saw that many Golden Crow Clan Saints seemed to be subtly surrounding the Sun Star Sun Star. The Array Patterns on the Sun Star had been fully activated to resist the Golden Crow Clan's invasion.

"The Golden Crow Clan might know something. They wanted to enter the Sun Star to search for traces of the Sun Sacred Emperor, but unfortunately it was useless. The Sun Star has already been occupied by me. After repairing the Sun Sacred Emperor's arrangements, this place is now an impregnable fortress." Zhou Tong said calmly. The Sun Star was originally his base in the Big Dipper, so how could he let anyone in so easily?

Ignoring the Array Patterns on the Sun Star, Zhou Tong stepped into the core of the Sun Star — the Sun Divine Temple.

In the center of the temple, Yan Ruyu was cultivating while holding the Azure Emperor's Heart.

More than a hundred years have passed, but time has left no trace on her. She remains as stunning and flawless as she was more than a hundred years ago.

"The Saint King is at the eighth level of the Heavenly Realm, and is preparing to undergo a complete transformation and break through to the Ninth Heaven. Very well, let me give you a hand!" Zhou Tong flicked his finger, and a drop of Five-Colored Immortal Liquid immediately merged into Yan Ruyu's body.

This is the Immortal Liquid obtained by the Dao Venerable from refining the flawless Holy Spirit. It has the miraculous effect of transforming one's body and soul, and is just right for Yan Ruyu to use for her breakthrough.

"Thump!"

The Azure Emperor's Heart seemed to sense something, and immediately trembled slightly, releasing a surge of vigorous blood energy that merged into Yan Ruyu's body.

At the same time, the Five Great Secret Realms within Yan Ruyu's body trembled together, and celestial music emanated from her body. Her physical body rapidly transformed, her Saint King's might became more concentrated, her divine sense became more refined, and her whole body shimmered with azure light, completely immaculate.

After the transformation was complete, she opened her eyes again, saw Zhou Tong, and exclaimed in surprise, "You're back? How could you be back so quickly?"

"Go and undergo your tribulation quickly. When you return, I will tell you all about it!" Zhou Tong smiled.

"Good!"

Yan Ruyu nodded slightly and immediately transformed into a streak of azure light, rushing out of the Sun Star.

"Hey, that's Yan Ruyu from the Demon Clan! She's finally emerged from the Sun Star!"

"Capture her quickly. Only by capturing her can we obtain the method to enter and exit the Sun Star, and learn about the things that the Sun Sacred Emperor left on the Sun Star back then."

The Golden Crow Saints who had been guarding outside the Sun Star immediately showed joy on their faces.

However, before they could act, an extremely domineering aura, carrying surging imperial might, swept over all the Golden Crow in an instant. In that instant, all the Golden Crow trembled and almost knelt down.

"Demon Clan, you're under my protection, get lost!"

The domineering voice caused every Golden Crow's flesh and blood to tremble, its bones to vibrate, and its primordial Divine Capital to be almost shattered. Fortunately, there was no Killing Intent in the voice, otherwise all the Golden Crow near the Sun Star would have been wiped out.

These six short words completely changed the expression of all the Golden Crow present; the lingering sound contained an air of arrogance that made even the Golden Crow Clan Saint uneasy.

"Walk!!"

The leading Golden Crow Saint King lost all interest and immediately led a large group of Golden Crow away from the Sun Star.

At this moment, lightning flashed Leiming roared from beyond the realm, and Yan Ruyu's Saint King Nine-Layered Heavenly Tribulation descended.

Half a day later, Yan Ruyu, who had successfully transcended the tribulation, returned to the Sun Divine Temple. She looked at Zhou Tong with a disbelief in her eyes. "Others take hundreds of years to conquer the ancient road, why did you come back so quickly?"

"I have already survived the Quasi-Emperor Tribulation. Now, all the geniuses on the Ancient Starry Road avoid me. What's the point?" Zhou Tong chuckled.

"You..." Yan Ruyu was moved. How many years had it been? Her man had already cultivated to the Quasi-Emperor realm?

Her eyes were deep and her gaze towards Zhou Tong was complex, seemingly happy yet conflicted. After a long while, she sighed and said with a bitter smile, "I chose you. My judgment is very good, but it's also... too good!"

"It seems I might have lost Lifetime gamble. I might really lose both my wife and my army..." Yan Ruyu really didn't know what to say. She had only originally planned to have Zhou Tong's Hegemon Body become fully developed so that he could protect her.

But now...

He was able to break through the age limit of eternity to advance to the Quasi-Emperor level, so it's hard to guarantee that he won't be able to break through the limitations of achieving the Dao through the Hegemon Body in the future.

"We haven't seen each other for a century, why are we talking about this? Over the years, there must have been many interesting things happening in Big Dipper ..." Zhou Tong chuckled and casually inserted a hairpin made of Dao Tribulation Gold into her hair.

This was the artifact that Zhou Tong forged after extracting the Dao Pattern of the Thunder Emperor Method when he reforged the Vajra Ring; over the years, Zhou Tong has also upgraded it to the level of Quasi-Emperor Artifact.

Even Yan Ruyu was awestruck by Zhou Tong's grandeur in refining the Dao Tribulation Gold into an ornament, and Quasi-Emperor Artifact at that.

"I also want to know what you saw and heard on the ancient road."

"Perfect opportunity for a deeper discussion!"
