The second city's envoy didn't seem to want this year's geniuses to enter the later cities so early. Even after half a month had passed since Zhou Tong entered, the second city's smelting trial still hadn't been opened.
Time passed. In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed.
For the past month, Zhou Tong had been quietly cultivating in the city, using the strange Laws and will of the Origin of the Dao to temper his Tyrant Fist's fist intent and aura.
Early in the morning, the multicolored light shone, and the city was bustling.
"Clang …"
A large bell rang. The envoy finally appeared and immediately opened the ancient smelting trial grounds.
The trial challengers that stepped onto the ancient road of stars were all in high spirits. No one wanted to miss out on this opportunity; they were all waiting for this moment.
Zhou Tong was no exception. He also gathered at the center of the city.
After everyone gathered, 12 gates suddenly appeared in the square at the center of the ancient city. These gates led to the ancient smelting trial grounds. The divine gates were resplendent, and it seemed as if there was an immortal realm within.
"Mm, all of you take care of yourselves and temper yourselves. In the past, there were people that obtained great lucky chances here. Now, their names have shaken the ancient road. For example, Di Tian and the Great Demon God from ten years ago. They all gained deep insights here." The envoy didn't speak much, only giving a few simple words of encouragement.
The 12 gates opened and all the trial challengers entered the ancient smelting trial grounds.
This was a vast expanse of land that was surging with great momentum. There were many Archaic Variants living here.
After Zhou Tong entered, he didn't think too much about it. He walked forwards step by step, using his heart to feel this boundless momentum. He could feel an endless strength surging through this place.
Weng ~ ~
As Zhou Tong was comprehending the momentum here, a strange light suddenly flashed in his eyes. This was because strands of runes of the Great Dao began to weave around his bell.
"Eh? There are actually some scriptures here? " Zhou Tong was curious. He immediately closed his eyes and carefully sensed the runes that weaved around his bell. At the same time, the sound of Great Dao scriptures began to resound in his mind. As he carefully sensed them, his heart shook.
This was related to the profundities of 'strength'. Even though it was just a trace of the general momentum at the beginning, it could be seen as a supreme Dao. Through the profundities of symbols, it explained the Grand Dao of all things, and everything revolved around the word 'strength'.
This was an extremely incomplete combination of Great Dao runes. After obtaining it, one would at most be able to comprehend something from a limited number of runes. It was impossible to obtain the entire scripture.
At first, Zhou Tong was a little surprised, but as he continued reading, he was shocked.
He was extremely familiar with this scripture. It was precisely the Vicious Ten precious technique -- Heavenly Horned Ant Precious Technique.
"Heavens, the second trial actually contains the profound mysteries of the Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique?" This was something Zhou Tong never expected, never expecting to be able to see the profound mysteries of the Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique in this place.
Although it was already broken beyond recognition, it was still the profound meaning of the Ten Vicious Treasured Techniques!
"According to normal reasoning, Humanity's ancient path should have been established during the Emperor Realm's era, so why did this type of thing happen?" Zhou Tong frowned.
The Ancient Road of the Human Clan was probably left behind by Venerable Sovereigns in the form of coordinates in the Starry Sky. Along the way, Venerable Sovereigns had set up some cities as transit points. At the same time, Venerable Sovereigns had also left some fortunes here.
All of this ultimately formed Humanity's ancient path of refinement.
However, the Emperor Realm's era was already extremely far from the Chaotic Ancient Era, so there should be no way he could obtain the Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique.
"Could it be … from the Chaotic Ancient Era, the place where the Immortal Dao Flower was?" A figure suddenly appeared in Zhou Tong's mind. That was the Pride of Heaven from the same era as Heavenly Emperor Huang -- Exiled Immortal.
"Could it be that the Emperor Realm obtained the damaged Heavenly Horned Ant nest, and then reconstructed it, turning it into this dao rite? That is why this dao rite specifically for comprehending the dao of strength was left behind? "Zhou Tong suspected that the Chaotic Ancient Era's Heavenly Horned Ant nest might very well be here.
"However, does it matter if the Heavenly Horned Ant nest is here or not? Either way, I already understand the Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique. Even if there used to be any treasures here, they are definitely gone now! "
Zhou Tong was quite open-minded, not thinking too much, instead calmly wandering about this divine earth full of the dao of strength.
Heavenly Tyrant Body, unmatched flesh, endless power. This was especially the case with Zhou Tong who cultivated the 'Imperishable Scripture' and the Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique. When he came to this place, he naturally entered this type of atmosphere full of power.
Zhou Tong walked on foot. The Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique and the 'Imperishable Scripture' began to operate unconsciously within his body. His entire body's essence blood surged like a star, every movement able to crush mountains and rivers, distort the void.
This was especially the case when as time went on, his power became heavier and heavier, more and more terrifying.
Beng!!
The space around Zhou Tong's wrist and neck completely collapsed, forming a terrifying great crack that penetrated through this place.
Just the throbbing of his pulse, that extremely fine bit of power, could make a large expanse of the void collapse.
Countless holy beasts in this world were trembling, not daring to approach him in the slightest.
"The dao of strength, if I use this as a test, perhaps my Tyrant Fist will become even more perfect!" Zhou Tong muttered to himself for a moment, and then he changed his train of thought, starting to use the omnipresent great dao of strength to temper his own fist intent and great power.
In this instant, the countless mountains and rivers in the entire Archaic Dao Rite, and even the sky released brilliant light, as if there was a type of unmatched great power and will taking form, and then it suppressed towards Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong calmly comprehended the dao, merging with the great power produced by the great dao of strength that filled the sky, moreover accommodating it within his own great power, allowing his fist's power to undergo rebirth a step further, transcending above the original Tyrant Fist.
As he comprehended, a figure gradually condensed behind Zhou Tong, one that was completely identical to him. It began to brandish its fists, condensing an unprecedented fist aura.
That figure was extremely terrifying, and every move had supreme power that shook the heavens. With a raise of its hand, the sky exploded, and eternity was destroyed.
"Law! Technique! Power! "
A trace of understanding gradually appeared in Zhou Tong's heart.
It was related to his understanding of his forbidden domain.
The Heaven Slashing Path was the law, the Tyrant Fist was the power, and the treasured technique of the Ten Ferocious Beasts was the technique!
With the treasured technique of the Ten Ferocious Beasts as the core, he re-evolved the Heaven Slashing Path technique and the power of the Tyrant Fist.
After that, he mastered the newly evolved Heaven Slashing Path and the Tyrant Fist through a comprehensive study, combining them into one.
Finally, on this foundation, he was reborn, completely reborn!
"Forbidden domain, this is my forbidden domain …" The figure behind Zhou Tong suddenly dissipated, and he opened his eyes, his gaze unprecedentedly clear.
This enlightenment allowed him to understand the dao of his forbidden domain, and he knew the direction to advance. It was of great significance.
"However, just the dao and comprehension alone is not enough. I have to accommodate the Vicious Ten's methods … My Vicious Ten divine forms also have to be completed as soon as possible!" Zhou Tong silently said inwardly.
He had a feeling that his forbidden domain might have to wait until he cultivated the true Vicious Ten divine forms before it could truly be completed.
"My Vicious Ten divine forms are still missing three, Heavenly Horned Ant, Nine Netherworlds Ao, Divine Striking Stone …"
It was quite difficult to choose between these three vicious ten precious techniques.
The Heavenly Horned Ant's precious technique was the dao of strength. By merging this dao into his own system, it would allow his dao power to increase explosively. Meanwhile, the Nine Netherworlds Ao's precious technique even more so symbolized 'death' and 'destruction'. It corresponded with the Immortal Phoenix's precious technique, so it could be improved from another aspect. As for the Divine Striking Stone's precious technique, there was no need to talk about it, it was the most proficient in divine sense among the Vicious Ten's precious techniques.
These three techniques were all what Zhou Tong needed the most right now.
"The divine form for the Saint King Realm should be the Heavenly Horned Ant!" Zhou Tong muttered to himself for a bit, and then finally came to a decision.
