Stepping into the vortex, Ye Lin's vision spun, and he arrived on the Emperor Road once more.
There was not the slightest challenge to it.
After leaving the vortex, Ye Lin was surprised to find that he had actually encountered a secret realm this time.
"Heavenly Dao has opened its eyes."
Ye Lin sighed, then carried Azure Frost and walked step by step toward the distant corridor.
Since he had first set foot on the Emperor Road, nearly two hundred years had already passed.
His pace was still a little too slow.
"Finally made it through. Good heavens."
On the other side, Li Xiaoyao stepped out and finally escaped the eighth trial.
He turned to look at the vortex behind him and could not help complaining.
The first guardian he faced had actually been the Heaven-Devouring Devil Lord. That was far too over-the-top.
That was the Heaven-Devouring Devil Lord—a true ruthless monster. To run into him on the very first encounter, was that reasonable?
It was completely unreasonable.
"I almost... I almost died in there."
Li Xiaoyao shook his head where he stood, then stepped into the vortex before him.
Compared to Ye Lin's ease, the rest of them had practically been driven to cough up blood.
The difficulty was simply too high.
At this level of difficulty, none of them had the slightest confidence that they could reach the end of the Emperor Road.
Because the Heaven-Devouring Devil Lord at the eighth trial had stopped ninety percent of them.
Even some veteran Primordial Unity Golden Immortals had been blocked there.
Those in the early stage of the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm were even more distressed.
Their talent had been mediocre to begin with, much less any chance of defeating the Heaven-Devouring Devil Lord while in the same realm.
