"Hmm?"
"What was that?"
Immortal Hongyun, Cloud Immortal, and other terrifying existences had long since withdrawn from this Starry Sky Zone, yet they too were alarmed at this moment.
The entire Ninefold Sky Road was like a furnace cauldron brought to a boil, with all manner of strange and terrifying Great Dao divine radiance bursting forth.
Every streak of divine radiance emanated a power so terrifying it defied all estimation!
Then, beneath the gaze of everyone present, they manifested into one mysterious and transcendent figure after another.
Each possessed a terrifying aura that shook the stars.
They were none other than the Three Purities Ancestor, the Confucian School Founder, the Buddhist Founder, the Military School Founder, the Demon Sect Founder, and more than ten other existences who had once stood like sovereigns over destiny.
"So it was them!"
Immortal Hongyun and the other terrifying existences all recognized them. They were the "fellow Daoists" who had once joined them in carving open the Ninefold Sky Road.
They were also the only group of Chaos Initial Ancestors who had survived after fighting their way out of the River of Destiny Origin!
It was precisely because of this group that the Ninefold Sky Road existed!
"That is our Three Purities Ancestor!"
"Goodness, the Buddha has revealed himself!"
"So what our Founder said was true. His elder truly did fight his way out of the River of Destiny Origin back then..."
Upon witnessing the figures of those dozen or so Founders, Bu Sheng Han, Foolish Monk, Kong Jin, Xun Qing, and the others were all deeply moved, their hearts surging with emotion.
Old Lord Antarctic recognized at once that those figures were not the actual Main Bodies of those Founder-level existences, but rather imprint powers fused into the source of the Ninefold Sky Road.
