After walking alone in the desolate universe for a while, Yang Qing finally arrived before a magnificent giant city.
This giant city was magnificent, with the sounds of dragon roars and phoenix cries echoing, lying across the starlit night, eternal and immortal.
The first trial on the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road!
It seemed the Sun Human Emperor knew that the trials ahead wouldn't serve him much, so he sent him directly here.
After stepping into the first trial of the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road, Yang Qing didn't rush ahead immediately. Instead, he chose to enter seclusion to cultivate.
Under the Fusang Ancient Tree, he had already made significant progress cultivating the True Scripture of the Sun, but it was unfortunately interrupted by an disturbance.
The Sun Human Emperor had given him a trunk of the Fusang Ancient Tree. Seizing this opportunity, he could finally cultivate properly for a period.
Meditating, cultivating, wisps of Solar Sacred Power flowed out from the golden-yellow trunk, continuously absorbed by Yang Qing into his body.
The contents of the True Scripture of the Sun flowed through his mind, the text transforming into the sound of the Great Dao, rumbling within his consciousness.
The Solar Sacred Emperor had taught him the complete True Scripture of the Sun, which even included the most precious forbidden chapters.
A complete Emperor Scripture alone was immeasurably valuable, enough to make countless powerful individuals fight tooth and nail for it.
However, he wouldn't blindly follow the scripture or tread the path others had walked, as that would only lead to a dead end!
Using the True Scripture of the Sun as nourishment to perfect his own techniques and forge his own Dao was the path he should take.
Furthermore, he wasn't just cultivating the True Scripture of the Sun; the contents of the True Scripture of the Great Yin were also resounding in his mind.
Great Yin and Great Sun, two completely different powers coexisted and complemented each other within his body, in perfect harmony.
With the help of the Fusang Ancient Tree trunk, he advanced again, cultivating both Yin and Yang and making a significant leap forward.
"The Immortal Platform Realm is indeed difficult for cultivation. Even my cultivation speed has decreased!"
Yang Qing opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing and disappearing. His face was full of helplessness as he muttered to himself.
Among the five great secret realms of the human body, the final Immortal Platform Realm was completely different from the previous ones, with its cultivation difficulty increasing exponentially.
Moreover, the higher the cultivation level, the greater the difficulty and the longer the time required for cultivation.
In the first four secret realms, he could advance a realm in about seven days, an incredibly fast pace.
In the Immortal Platform Realm, his cultivation speed was still fast, but it took him seven days to traverse a few small steps within a Heaven.
After reaching the Immortal Platform Third Heaven, his cultivation speed slowed down further. It took him seven days to advance one step, which was incomparable to before.
Of course, this was only Yang Qing's own perception. If others knew his current cultivation speed, they would be astonished.
Seven days to advance one step, and each Heaven had only nine steps!
Did this mean Yang Qing could perfect a Heaven in just two months?
To be precise, Yang Qing only needed two months to advance from Immortal Third Heaven Dao Slaying to Immortal Fourth Heaven Saint.
What an incredible cultivation speed this was!
The cultivation speed records of all ages had long been shattered by Yang Qing, with no room for comparison!
"Rumble!"
As Yang Qing broke through the first trial of the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road, a Heavenly Tribulation descended. An boundless sea of lightning covered the sky, terrifying beyond measure.
Such a massive commotion naturally attracted the attention of countless people, including many powerful cultivators.
"Is this a Saint Tribulation? The Heavenly Tribulation is so terrifying. It seems another prodigy will emerge on the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road!"
"What a pity! Even with such heaven-blessed talent, he started too late. True prodigies have already ventured deep into the ancient road!"
"Indeed! Ji Xukong is too dazzling, sweeping away all heroes and defeating all prodigies. Who can contend with him in this era?"
From the tribulation, some clues could be discerned, especially when the youthful Ancient Great Emperor was manifested by the Heavenly Tribulation.
Such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation, if not a prodigy, wouldn't even have the qualification to trigger it, let alone successfully pass it.
When they saw Yang Qing wielding the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist and fighting the youthful Ancient Great Emperor, with neither side gaining the upper hand, everyone was stunned.
At that moment, everyone seemed to witness a prodigy rising!
Just as many were lamenting that this prodigy had started too late and would find it difficult to catch up with those who had embarked on the Strongest Trial Ancient Road much earlier.
Yang Qing's Heavenly Tribulation was nearing its end, and his figure then appeared before everyone's eyes. Many were instantly stunned.
Although his exact age was unknown, Yang Qing was incredibly young, definitely under a hundred years old, perhaps even younger.
At such an age, to have cultivated to the Immortal Fourth Heaven Saint Realm, what terrifying talent was this?
This was not just a prodigy, but an unprecedented monstrous genius of the world!
After Yang Qing finished his tribulation, his body shimmered with divine light, and a terrifying aura of Blood Essence surged towards the heavens, eclipsing the firmament and shaking the world.
"I cannot just pursue the improvement of my cultivation. It's time to forge my own path!" Yang Qing thought to himself.
After becoming a Saint, his cultivation had reached a significant level. The power of the Sacred Body gradually manifested, and he could go anywhere in the world!
Having reached this point, the experiences of his predecessors could only serve as a reference; they could no longer support him in continuing his journey.
He was determined to forge his own path to invincibility!
The Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road was undoubtedly the best place for tempering, where he would battle numerous prodigies and carve out a brilliant future.
Through the brutal battle, he would force out his own potential and forge his own path, of this he was absolutely certain!
"Young friend, with your heaven-blessed talent, would you care to join me in the city for a chat!"
The speaker was an elder, the City Lord of the first pass on the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road, and also a Dao Protector on the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road.
Yang Qing happened to want to understand the current situation of the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road, so he readily agreed and happily entered the city.
After a few rounds of drinks, the elder began to speak about the topic Yang Qing was most interested in. The current situation of the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road was actually very simple.
"Ever since Ji Xukong stepped onto the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road, he has swept through all heroes along the way, defeating all heavenly prodigies."
As the elder spoke, Yang Qing did not see a scene of heroes rising together, with countless heavenly prodigies fiercely battling to the death on the Emperor's Road.
Instead, he saw a magnificent scroll of a peerless heavenly prodigy rising against the heavens, suppressing his era, and being unrivaled.
Ji Xukong, a name that made all the heavenly prodigies of this era dim in comparison, had risen with a speed rarely seen throughout history.
In the eyes of many, Ji Xukong proving Dao and becoming Emperor in this life had almost become an undisputed matter.
Many heavenly prodigies had already lost heart and withdrawn from the competition for Emperor's Road in this life, leaving only Ji Xukong, who was like the midday sun, brilliant and dazzling.
Yang Qing remained silent. He had already heard too many legends about Ji Xukong, all of which were nothing but praise.
Ji Xukong had proved Dao and become Emperor at the age of five hundred and one. If he wasn't so monstrous, it would be abnormal.
But this ignited his desire to compete. If there were no Ji Xukong, what would be the point of the Emperor's Road competition in this life?
Before Yang Qing departed, the elder asked the question that concerned everyone the most: Yang Qing's current age.
"I just turned eighteen this year!"
Yang Qing set off again, heading towards the depths of the Human Race's Strongest Trial Ancient Road, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded people!
