After briefly adapting to the aftermath of the teleportation and the environment here, Kongdao suddenly spoke.
"Baole, Yameng, I went to find Yifan a few days ago and wanted to give him the quota, but he didn't agree."
"Kongdao, you're overthinking it." Wang Baole patted Kongdao's shoulder and smiled. He had also asked Zhuo Yifan about this matter, but Zhuo Yifan still refused. After all, he didn't participate in the trial. Regardless, even if Wang Baole had the right to give it to anyone, in the end, it was Kongdao's.
Hearing Wang Baole's words, Kongdao heaved a sigh of relief. After cheering himself up, he looked at the mountain path ahead with Wang Baole and Zhao Yameng.
"This is the Road of Brilliance that Elder Feng mentioned. I can feel the aura of an array here. It's very strong, but it's not dangerous!" Zhao Yameng said softly after looking at it for a while.
"I'll go first!" Almost as soon as Zhao Yameng finished speaking, Kongdao's eyes flashed with decisiveness. He was very grateful to Wang Baole for giving him the quota this time, so he wanted to try this unknown Road of Brilliance first. This way, if there was any danger, Baole and Zhao Yameng could be prepared.
Therefore, when he spoke, he didn't wait for Wang Baole and Zhao Yameng to stop him. In a flash, he stepped on the first step. The moment his foot landed, Kongdao's body shook.
Wang Baole and Zhao Yameng immediately approached and observed with rapt attention. After waiting for half an incense stick's worth of time, the two of them became anxious and wanted to pull Kongdao down. Suddenly, Kongdao let out a long breath.
"I saw an image. It's safe to use it here." With that, Kong Dao continued onward. After a hundred steps, his body trembled, and he once again stood there motionless.
Seeing that, Wang Baole and Zhao Yameng looked at each other. After nodding, they stepped onto the trap together. Instantly, both of them shuddered. Wang Baole finally realized what Kong Dao had seen. That was because at that moment, he felt his vision blur, and the entire world before his eyes had undergone a tremendous change that turned the heavens and earth upside down.
The black lightning in the sky vanished, and the sky became blue. The restrictive spells in the area also vanished, and the land became a plain. There were even birds flying in the sky. Even the Seven Peaks no longer looked like a fort. Instead, it had shrunk to the size of a small mountain.
A sense of serenity and peace permeated the area, calming one's entire being as they stood there. Wang Baole blinked and saw that there was a courtyard at the top of the mountain.
There was a well in the courtyard, and beside the well was a big yellow dog, lying there lazily. Beside it was a middle-aged man with a sage-like demeanor. He sat cross-legged and stroked the big yellow dog's head. He smiled and looked at the entrance of the courtyard, where two people were hanging a plaque.
Although the two of them were young, they were very agile. Soon, they hung the signboard on the door of the courtyard. Wang Baole's gaze focused as he saw the words on the signboard.
"Vast Expanse Desolation."
At this point, the image stopped and gradually faded. Everything returned to normal. The black lightning, the restrictive spells, and the seven peaks of the fort were still there!
Wang Baole was silent for a moment. When he turned his head, he saw that Zhao Yameng had opened her eyes.
"The Path of Glory, the history of the rise of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace?" Zhao Yameng murmured softly. After expressing Wang Baole's judgment, the two of them continued forward.
From afar, Kongdao was a hundred steps ahead, while Wang Baole and Zhao Yameng were side by side. The three of them looked like they were on an outing. Under the illumination of the black lightning and restrictive spells, they walked toward the top of the mountain.
After a hundred steps, the second image appeared before Wang Baole's eyes. There were more clouds in the blue sky, and there were more towns on the plains. The small mountain that used to be there had been transformed into a towering mountain peak, and what used to be a waterfall had been transformed into hundreds of pavilions. Under the contrast of the greenery that adorned the mountain peak, it gave off a celestial vibe.
Even the disciples were no longer the two children in the first image. Instead, there were tens of thousands of them. They came and went, and it was very lively. Sunlight flashed and shone on the plaque at the entrance of the mountain.
It was no longer the Vast Expanse, but three words.
Vast Expanse School!
Next, every hundred steps, an image would appear. The higher they went, the more pressure they felt. It landed on the three of them, as if it was testing their physical endurance.
Kong Dao and Zhao Yameng were fine in the beginning, but their footsteps gradually slowed down. Only Wang Baole maintained a steady pace throughout, advancing step by step. He didn't help the two of them, because he could tell that there was indeed no danger on the Path of Glory. To a certain extent, he could even use the suppressive force to temper his body to a certain extent.
Even if he didn't need it, it was still a good opportunity for Zhao Yameng and Kongdao.
Therefore, after paying attention to the condition of the two of them, Wang Baole looked at the third, fourth, and fifth images as if he were really having fun.
The three images were largely the same. They depicted how the Vast Expanse Sect rose above the rest of the other cultivation sects after many years. They became the dominant force and eventually unified the entire planet, ushering in the era of the cosmos. They grew from a single planet to a star system. There was no description of the twists and turns involved, but Wang Baole could imagine them. He knew that the history involved the hard work of countless generations. Their influence expanded to encompass too many star systems, and they eventually spread across an entire star domain and became the overlord of a region!
During this process, the name of the sect changed three times. It changed from the third image to the sect to the fourth image. It changed from the sect to the palace. At the end of the fifth image, the name of the sect became the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!
Looking at the history of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, even if it was only a brief outline, the feeling of glory was still very strong. After all, it was the scene of a sect becoming the overlord of a planetary system. Even though Wang Baole wasn't a member of the Dao Palace, he still felt a sense of encouragement. He could imagine that the disciples who joined the Vast Expanse Dao Palace before the catastrophe. They must have been even more excited on this path.
Completing the entire mountain path is equivalent to reading the history of the Dao Palace. It gives this disciple an instinctive sense of belonging and pride. Wang Baole took a deep breath as a sense of respect rose in his heart. It was just that the glory in the painting, the lightning in the sky, the hex in the surroundings, and the Sea of Fire in the distance because he was standing at a high point, as well as the endless ruins and ruins, made Wang Baole a little dazed.
It was difficult for the images in history to overlap with reality. After a long time, Wang Baole shook his head and walked to the top of the mountain. He had taken the last step on the path of glory.
As he took this step, the sixth image appeared before his eyes. Wang Baole thought that he would see the fall of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. However, what he saw was a familiar figure.
It was a white-haired middle-aged man. He brought a mischievous little girl to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. The Vast Expanse Dao Palace treated his arrival with great importance. Even Laozu went out to greet him. In the image, the little girl looked around curiously. It became an eternal memory.
"Little Miss." Wang Baole stopped in his tracks. As the image disappeared and he walked out of the path of glory, he stood at the top of the mountain. Behind him was the mountain platform, and in front of him was the palace. He muttered to himself in silence.
Time passed slowly. Wang Baole stood there, waiting for Zhao Yameng and Kongdao. He calmed himself down and looked at the palace in front of him. The palace was magnificent. The huge pillars seemed to support the domed palace. However, it couldn't hide the vicissitudes of life. The statue erected in front of the palace was especially majestic.
Wang Baole was familiar with the statue. It was the middle-aged man who sat cross-legged in the first image.
Perhaps this was Laozu of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!
Even though the palace had been destroyed in the sword body, it was still intact. Standing in front of it was like standing at the foot of a giant. As he stared, Wang Baole slowly heard the sound of breathing behind him. Kongdao walked up. Although his body was trembling, his eyes shone brightly. His physical body had been tempered by the path of glory, and it was obviously much stronger than before. After another five minutes, Zhao Yameng finally finished walking the path of glory.
Her physical body was the weakest among the three of them. However, it was also because of this that she had benefited the most from the path of glory.
After the two of them rested, Wang Baole suddenly spoke. His eyes shone brightly. "Next, we will challenge the seven palaces!"
