The Emperor Road Opens
"I recently took a trip to the Emperor Road and made some adjustments to it."
"But there are some tasks that need to be done by you. When the time comes, you shouldn't go to the Emperor Road. Go to your respective positions and help keep the Emperor Road running."
Upon hearing Lu Changzhi's words, everyone, including the five beasts, immediately showed expressions of disbelief.
Mu Fan slapped his thigh and exclaimed:
"As expected, it has to be Master! It hasn't even opened yet, and Master has already gone to check it out."
Qin Li's eyes also showed a hint of shock; she had clearly heard her master say "adjustment" just now.
His master can even adjust the Emperor Road?
Compared to the reactions of the others, the reactions of the five beasts were significantly stronger.
Unlike Mu Fan and the others, they didn't know long ago that Lu Changzhi was no ordinary person.
I never expected to hear such unbelievable news.
On the Human Race side, the Emperor Road that even the Human Emperor had so confidently vowed to and eagerly anticipated was now treated like a backyard garden by the other side.
At this moment, Gu Chen spoke up and asked:
"Master, what are our specific responsibilities?"
Lu Changzhi thought for a moment and said:
"Send a wisp of your divine sense aside. I'll take you inside first and tell you what you need to do."
At that moment, everyone and every beast sent a wisp of their divine sense to Lu Changzhi.
The next moment.
Swish!
Lu Changzhi's External Avatar once again carried the divine senses of the others into the Emperor Road.
About half an hour later, everyone regained their composure, their faces still showing signs of excitement.
On the other side, the five Beast Race looked at each other.
Then Long Yi transmitted his voice and sighed:
"Elder Lu's move was too brilliant. It seems highly likely that the Human Emperor Gu De on the Human Race was sent by Elder Lu specifically to deceive them."
Hearing these words, the remaining four beasts nodded in deep agreement.
Land of the Four Directions, with another period of time passing, even cultivators in extremely distant locations have had enough time to arrive.
Therefore, looking around at this moment, the entire world was filled with cultivators eagerly awaiting their arrival.
The Land of the Four Directions was not large to begin with, and now it is almost completely packed with people, with even more people now queuing outside the Land of the Four Directions.
A long time has passed again.
"This hint doesn't seem to offer anything new. Or is that all there is to it?"
Among the crowd, someone glanced at the sky above the Five Symbols Sect, then shook his head somewhat listlessly.
Beside him, another person, upon hearing this, shook his head and smiled, saying:
"These hints are enough. After all, even if we hadn't received any hints, we wouldn't have had any choice. Now at least we know that we need to bring the coffin-clad ancestor with us."
"Speaking of the coffin-clad ancestor..."
The cultivator beside him turned around, his face showing a detached indifference as if he had seen through everything, and said:
"It's impossible to be sure if this is true from the beginning. If someone deliberately did this, and everyone believed it, that would be rather ridiculous."
No sooner had he finished speaking than someone else spoke up:
"Brother, I'm not trying to cause trouble, I'm just a little curious. Does this mean you really aren't planning to bring a coffin to house your ancestor?"
Upon hearing this, the man calmly replied:
"Since I've said that, I certainly won't go back on my word."
"Harmful,"
Someone shook their head.
"What's there to discuss about these things? Whether they're real or fake, just take them if you can. They don't take up much space in your inventory. It's good if you can use them, but it doesn't matter if you can't."
"I think everyone has this mentality. But there are some powerful people who care too much about what others have and what they don't have. They are particularly calculating in this matter. They not only want to find more, but also want to find better quality items, which makes the world a bit chaotic."
Hearing this person's words, those who knew him privately all nodded in agreement.
Indeed, the world is in much more chaos these days.
One person laughed and said:
"Once the Emperor Road opens and everyone goes in, things will probably get even more chaotic. Something like this will inevitably be a battleground of heroes vying for power, a massive struggle for survival, and it'll be a bloodbath."
"From Foundation Establishment to the Emperor Realm, almost everything related to resources is not like this. This Emperor Road is probably no exception."
As they were talking, suddenly a gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd around them.
Immediately afterwards, the previously peaceful world suddenly became bustling with noise.
On the ground, countless people suddenly stood up.
In mid-air, figures emerged from the suspended building.
Almost instinctively, the group looked around before their heads landed on the inscription "Emperor Road".
The next moment, their expressions all changed, and they said in unison:
"Are we about to begin?"
There, the original writing had completely disappeared at some point.
Although there are no new changes, this is a significant shift compared to the past.
Meanwhile, on the outermost edge of the Land of the Four Directions, the crowd began to stir up trouble.
Countless people who were further out in the Land of the Four Directions were now rushing towards the nearest place upon hearing the commotion.
However, although the text disappeared, no new activity appeared for the time being.
As everyone waited expectantly, they went on and on.
Finally, as more time passed, the excitement and anticipation in my heart subsided slightly.
And just as countless people sat back down, prepared to wait any longer.
Suddenly, a surge of power arose from the spot where the original text had been.
In an instant, millions of eyes were fixed on it.
Suddenly, golden light appeared in the void, spreading out like twilight, and something seemed to be changing within it.
This continued for about fifteen minutes.
The next moment, a burst of golden light erupted, suddenly exploding outwards from the Five Symbols Sect, spreading to all Land of the Four Directions.
The next moment, in countless locations throughout the world, a large number of people felt a repulsive force that forcibly pushed them to other places.
Where the repulsive force resided, golden light condensed in the void, forming Dao Grade that extended diagonally upwards from the ground.
Looking out, it seems to stretch straight to the sky.
As soon as the golden staircase appeared, the power of heaven and earth surged wildly towards each staircase, causing the originally somewhat illusory staircase to quickly solidify.
Such staircases appeared countless times between heaven and earth, with one visible almost every short distance.
The moment the Dao Grade solidified, everyone heard a sentence:
"Climb this ladder, and you will enter the Emperor Road."
