In the depths of the Immortal's Mansion world, not only were there the imprints of the Battle Saint Emperor, but also traces left behind from the battle to conquer the Immortal Ascension Path.

According to Yang Qing's judgment, in the late Primordial Era, the Battle Saint Emperor, in his later years, fought his way to the Immortal Ascension Path, intending to transform into a War Immortal in one fell swoop.

But like the Great Yin Human Emperor before him, at the most crucial moment, the Battle Saint Emperor was ambushed and ultimately failed.

Although he didn't believe the Battle Saint Emperor could have succeeded in becoming a War Immortal, there was a significant difference between failing on his own and failing due to an ambush.

From the Battle Saint Emperor's roar, it was not hard to discern that the mastermind behind it was the Undying Heavenly Emperor.

The Undying Heavenly Emperor, being a peerless powerhouse who founded the Primordial Era, his actions were truly despicable.

Regardless of the reason, couldn't he have fought a fair battle?

Not only did he wait until the Ancient Emperor's twilight years, but he also resorted to an ambush?

No wonder the Battle Saint Emperor was furious and directly overturned the Undying Heavenly Emperor's dojo, yet the Undying Heavenly Emperor chose to avoid him.

Ji Xukong's expression was grim, his mind racing. The Undying Heavenly Emperor was not dead; had he also become one of the Supreme Beings?

But he felt that a peerless powerhouse like the Undying Heavenly Emperor, so arrogant, would never be willing to be reduced to a Supreme Being, stagnating for life.

Coupled with Yang Qing's earlier words, he suddenly realized that the Undying Heavenly Emperor had likely embarked on an extremely terrifying path.

However, now was not the time to ponder these matters; he and Yang Qing had more important things to do here.

"Let's begin!"

Yang Qing took a step forward first, unleashing a punch. The void seemed to explode, erupting from a single point, causing the stars to tremble.

Brilliant light shot into the sky, and astonishing radiance filled the air. In an instant, a terrifying aura spread throughout the great universe.

Before Yang Qing, the void collapsed, and a massive rift appeared, expanding tens of thousands of feet. A path emerged.

Ji Xukong took a deep breath and attacked simultaneously, severing the void and striking the spatial rift with world-shattering might.

"Rumble!"

As this vast aura shook the heavens, countless beings in the Big Dipper Star Domain trembled instantly, unable to stop their bodies from shaking.

In the various Forbidden Zones of Life, the Supreme Beings sensed it immediately and looked towards the Immortal's Mansion world, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"This? This is forcibly opening the Immortal Path? The Great Accomplishment Saint Body and the Void Emperor are joining forces to conquer the Immortal Ascension Path!"

The Supreme Beings were stunned, never having expected such a world-shattering event to occur at this moment.

Throughout the long ages, anyone who had the thought of becoming an immortal had considered conquering the Immortal Ascension Path.

But thinking about it was one thing, and actually taking that step was another. How many truly dared to take that step?

If it wasn't the right time, one could only attempt to force their way through the Immortal Ascension Path, and the difficulty would be terrifyingly high.

Throughout the long ages, there had been those who forcibly attempted to conquer the Immortal Ascension Path, but their fates were all tragic.

For this reason, the Supreme Beings were deeply hesitant about forcibly conquering the Immortal Ascension Path; otherwise, they wouldn't have waited so long for the Immortal Ascension Path to open.

Now, the Great Accomplishment Saint Body and the Void Emperor were joining forces to conquer the Immortal Ascension Path. What were they trying to do?

Could it be that the Great Accomplishment Saint Body and the Void Emperor wanted to become immortals?

But upon closer thought, that didn't make sense at all!

Both the Great Accomplishment Saint Body and the Void Emperor were very young. Even if they were to conquer the Immortal Ascension Path, they shouldn't be in such a hurry.

Could it be that conquering the Immortal Ascension Path was a pretense, a feint to create a false impression, and their true intention was to attack them?

At this thought, the Supreme Beings became restless, feeling they had truly had enough!

The Great Accomplishment Saint Body was too troublesome. Since achieving the Great Accomplishment Saint Body, how many incidents had occurred?

If nothing else, in this short period, four Supreme Beings had already fallen.

It hadn't been long, and the Great Accomplishment Saint Body was causing such a massive disturbance again. Were they not going to let them sleep peacefully?

While the Supreme Beings were lost in thought, Yang Qing and Ji Xukong were jointly breaking through the heavens, forcibly conquering the Immortal Ascension Path.

"It's not the right time, forcibly conquering the Immortal Ascension Path is indeed difficult!" Yang Qing said.

Without the right time, simply forcing open the Immortal Ascension Path required world-shattering might, something only a Great Emperor could achieve.

As they stepped onto the Immortal Ascension Path, one after another, world-destroying immortal lights appeared, piercing the great universe and shattering the ancient firmament.

Fortunately, it was on the Immortal Ascension Path. If it were in the outside world, it would undoubtedly have destroyed the Big Dipper Star Domain and annihilated billions of stars.

To advance on the Immortal Ascension Path was like carving out a path forward, equivalent to confronting the rules of heaven and earth, breaking through the heavens with sheer force.

Even with their combined efforts, they could only advance slowly on the Immortal Ascension Path, illustrating how difficult it was to forcibly conquer it.

No wonder, throughout the long ages, anyone who dared to forcibly conquer the Immortal Ascension Path was a peerless powerhouse of their generation.

But no matter how astonishingly talented they were, they all failed without exception, turning the dream of becoming an immortal into a foolish delusion.

"Must we truly wait for the right time and the right place?" Ji Xukong murmured to himself.

After proving Dao and becoming Emperor, no one would not wish to become an immortal. It was the ultimate dream of countless beings, and no one was an exception.

But if he had to wait bitterly like the Supreme Beings, he would rather dedicate his entire life to protecting all beings, and he would have no regrets even if he didn't become an immortal!

"That's not necessarily true!" Yang Qing said with a smile.

In his opinion, there were only two ways to achieve immortality: one was the Immortal Ascension Path, and the other was to achieve it within the mortal world.

Entering the Immortal Realm through the Immortal Ascension Path was a path the Desolate Heavenly Emperor had once taken. Compared to the correct time, the correct location was more important.

To enter the Immortal Realm, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor had once opened up many spatial nodes in this universe. These spatial nodes were the Immortal Ascension Path.

Most of the spatial nodes were incorrect and could not lead to the Immortal Realm at all. Only the spatial node on the Flying Immortal Star was correct.

With the correct spatial node and waiting for the correct time, the difficulty of traversing the Immortal Ascension Path and entering the Immortal Realm would be reduced.

However, as long as one was powerful enough, traversing the Immortal Ascension Path at the correct spatial node made the correct time irrelevant.

Of course, the prerequisite was to be powerful enough. When the Desolate Heavenly Emperor opened up the Immortal Ascension Path and entered the Immortal Realm back then, he was almost at the peak of a Mortal World Immortal.

The second path to immortality was equally arduous. One could become a Mortal World Immortal by living backward through nine lifetimes in the mortal world.

Over the long years, some people had already embarked on this path, such as the Tribulation Crossing Heavenly Venerate, Emperor Venerate, Undying Heavenly Emperor, Divine Silkworm Ancient Emperor, and the Ruthless Great Emperor.

Of course, it was too early to talk about this now. He and Ji Xukong were still young and could consider how to proceed on their future paths slowly.

As they ventured deeper into the Immortal Ascension Path, the tribulations became increasingly terrifying. All sorts of fearsome calamities transformed into monstrous beings, blocking the path of Yang Qing and the other.

Fighting their way through, Yang Qing suddenly sensed something and a brilliant smile spread across his face.

"Found it!"

Ahead of him, a broken physical body appeared. He felt a familiar aura, the power of Great Yin.

The shattered corpse of the Great Yin Human Emperor had finally been found!
