As early as in the Immortal World, Xiao Lingyu had seen the statue of Donghuang Taiyi in the East Royal City. Now that he saw Donghuang himself, he couldn't help but be a little excited.
"Xiao Daoyou are too polite. Although we have never met before, I have heard of Xiao Daoyou." Donghuang was very polite.
"Senior Donghuang should have heard about me from Senior Xiao Tian and Great Saint Sun, right?" Xiao Lingyu asked curiously.
"They did say some, but I learned more from Hong Jun Ancestor." Donghuang replied.
"There are many things that I don't understand. This time, I must ask clearly." Xiao Lingyu said.
"Haha, you will naturally understand everything when you come. The Ancestor also calculated that you have arrived, so he sent me to guide you."
Donghuang smiled and said, "If there was no guide, Great Saint Sun may be able to rush to us again, but that Xiao Tianquan would have died long ago. It dared to come to the ancient star road alone before reaching the peak of Star Pinnacle. Xiao Daoyou surprised us. Even if I didn't come to guide you, with the strength of Xiao Daoyou's family, I am afraid that you can meet us smoothly. "
"Senior Donghuang is too kind. If it weren't for senior's help, I am afraid that we would have had a hard battle." Xiao Lingyu said humbly.
"Let's go, the people in front are still waiting. There's still quite a long way to go. After this desert, there's still a bitter cold land and a swamp. However, the powerful existences along the way have already been wiped out, so there shouldn't be too much of a hindrance. "
Donghuang said as he put away the Donghuang Bell and led the way at the front of the team.
It took them close to a hundred million years to pass through the desert. During this time, they encountered thousands of giant sand beasts. However, under the vibration of the Eastern Emperor Bell, those giant sand beasts all crumbled immediately. It was difficult for them to cause any damage.
What made Xiao Lingyu very curious was what level Donghuang was at now. He felt that he was also at the peak of Star Pinnacle, but his strength was many times stronger than the ordinary peak of Star Pinnacle.
Even with Xiao Lingyu's current level and strength, he felt that it would be difficult for him to even tie with Donghuang, let alone defeat him.
And there must be a lot of cultivators whose strength was comparable to or even stronger than Donghuang. Even they found it difficult to solve the problem, so why should they have high hopes for him?
Along the way, although Xiao Lingyu was full of questions, she didn't ask. She would find out sooner or later. If she didn't say anything, it would be pointless for her to ask.
Under Donghuang's lead, they crossed the desert and came to a frozen land. There were many ice beasts in this land. They hid in the ice and snow and would occasionally appear. They could use the powerful ability to freeze time and space. Even Donghuang would have to spend a lot of effort to deal with these ice beasts.
However, the treasures left behind by the Ice Beasts were treasures that Qing Xuan and Lil Bing liked very much. They could increase their strength by a lot.
After a hundred million years, they finally passed through this bitter cold land and arrived in a world of swamps.
This swamp was not peaceful, either. There were many extremely poisonous Demonic Beasts, but there were also many high-tier heavenly treasures.
Those poisonous Demonic Beasts appeared in groups. As long as they encountered them, there would be a long and bitter battle. Their strength might not be strong, but there would be tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, or even millions of them every time. Moreover, there was a large number of Star Pinnacle Stage existences among them. It would often take a lot of time to kill them all.
Ling 'er was very sensitive to all kinds of treasures. With her in the group, they naturally found many more treasures. Among them, there was a pair of sisters that came from the same root. They were of great help to Jiang Lanchang and Jiang Lanyue.
"There is a large mountain not far ahead. We have already entered the depths of the mountain. In fact, we have arrived in this mountain a long time ago, but there are too many dangers in this mountain, which has slowed our progress by a lot. Even now, we have not been able to pass through completely. Moreover, many powerful cultivators have fallen here," Donghuang reminded them.
After passing through this swamp, they indeed arrived in a world completely occupied by undulating mountains. Standing on top of the mountain, they could see the void on both sides of the starry sky ancient path and the stars in the void. However, they could not see the end of the mountain.
"There are many Heavenly Demons in the mountain, and almost every Heavenly Demon is very powerful. Sometimes, they move alone, attacking cultivators who enter the mountain. Sometimes, they form groups and fight us head-on. We often have to pay a great price to advance a short distance."
Donghuang did not forget to add as he led the Xiao Clan's group into the mountain.
After flying in the mountain for tens of thousands of years, Xiao Lingyu suddenly saw a tombstone. The words "Tomb of Dijiang" were written on it.
"Could this Dijiang be the one from our Earth?" Xiao Lingyu asked in surprise.
"That's right, it's him. His speed is extremely fast. However, it's precisely because he's too fast that he always rushes to the front and dies early." Donghuang explained with a wry smile.
As they continued to fly forward, they saw many tombstones of experts along the way. Xiao Lingyu did not recognize some of them, nor had he heard of them before. Donghuang would occasionally introduce them to Xiao Lingyu.
The cultivators who died without tombstones were all top experts. No matter how powerful they were in the past, in the end, they still turned into a cup of yellow soil. This made Xiao Lingyu sigh in his heart. On this starry sky ancient path, anyone could die at any time.
"Sometimes, those Heavenly Demons would appear in large numbers and repel us. These tombstones would then be beaten down by the Heavenly Demons from the starry sky ancient path to the World of Immortals."
Donghuang said helplessly, "Even if they've died, it's still very difficult for them to stay on the starry sky ancient path for a long time."
Xiao Lingyu just nodded silently. He did not reply, nor did he know how to reply. He just looked at those tombstones, and his heart became heavier and heavier.
In this big family of his, how many would he be able to save in the end? Or would they all die on the starry sky ancient path?
Another few thousand years had passed. Donghuang, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and frowned, "It seems like a Heavenly Demon is coming."
Not long after, there really was a Heavenly Demon with unfathomable strength lying on top of a mountain peak.
That Heavenly Demon was snow-white. It was not small, and there were eighteen tails fluttering behind it. Looking at its face, one could tell that it was a Fox Demon, which was also a Heavenly Fox.
"Xiao Lingyu, I've been waiting for you for many years. You came to the starry sky ancient path much later than I expected."
The Heavenly Fox spoke in human language, but it was a woman's voice.
"Are you still thinking about revenge?"
Xiao Lingyu could already confirm that this Heavenly Fox was the demonic fox he adopted in the Devil World. Its mother had died in his hands.
"If it were you, would you take revenge?"
The Heavenly Fox was still lying on top of the mountain peak. It narrowed its eyes and asked, "Do you regret not killing me back then?"
"Even if I killed you back then, there will definitely be other Heavenly Demons waiting for me here." Xiao Lingyu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"It's good that you think that way. Today, we can settle this. After today, no matter who lives or dies, our past grudges will be written off."
After saying that, the Heavenly Fox stood up from the mountain peak.
"If it's just for revenge, I don't mind fighting you. But you're blocking my way today. I'm afraid you have other intentions, right?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"The countless Heavenly Demons here are like me. They have the responsibility and mission to stop you from continuing forward. However, those Heavenly Demons have no grudges with you, but I do," the Heavenly Fox replied directly.
"Let us settle our grudges ourselves. Let them pass, and I'll fight you," Xiao Lingyu said.
"You can come together," the Heavenly Fox said confidently.
"Xiao Daoyou, let's go together. This Heavenly Demon is very strong. I'm afraid you're not its match alone," Donghuang said with a frown.
"There's no need. I'll do it myself. After all, this is my personal grudge."
After Xiao Lingyu rejected him, he leaped up and flew up.
The Heavenly Fox did not dawdle. Immediately, its eighteen tails flew out from behind and swept towards Xiao Lingyu.
Each of the eighteen tails was extremely powerful and fast. As soon as Xiao Lingyu flew up, he was surrounded by the eighteen tails. Naturally, he could not dodge every single one of them.
Even though he had the Taiji diagram protecting his body, when the eighteen tails swept past, his body was still whipped down.
"Have a taste of the power of the Donghuang Bell!"
Donghuang attacked. He opened his mouth and spat out the Donghuang Bell. Then, he slapped the Donghuang Bell with his palm.
Clang!
The deafening sound of the bell suddenly rang. The eighteen tails that were chasing Xiao Lingyu were blown away by a powerful aura.
Xiao Lingyu's wife and children, as well as Xiao Wei, were already in position. Without waiting for Xiao Lingyu to speak, they all attacked the Heavenly Fox.
"We're really going to attack together."
The Heavenly Fox let out a string of laughter. Its eighteen tails kept twisting, slapping away all the attacks that were close to its body.
The Heavenly Fox was indeed very powerful. Xiao Lingyu was not confident that he could defeat it, so he did not stop everyone from helping. Even if everyone fought together, there was still hope for victory. If he tried to be a hero and fought one-on-one, he would be the one at a disadvantage in the end.
With Donghuang's help, the Heavenly Fox was finally defeated. However, it did not suffer any damage.
"If Xiao Daoyou fought one-on-one with it, it's very likely that you would die here. Hong Jun Ancestor asked me to pick you up because he was worried about this," Donghuang explained.
"Are the Heavenly Demons here as powerful as the Heavenly Fox?" Anya asked.
"More or less," Donghuang replied vaguely.
After the Heavenly Fox was defeated, Donghuang led the Xiao Clan team deeper into the mountains.
After thousands of years and seeing the tombstones of many powerhouses, the Xiao Clan team finally met up with the team in front.
In the past, countless powerhouses had reached this point on the Ancient Road of Stars. Although they were still moving forward, the speed of their progress was very slow.
Without setting up a camp, all the powerhouses found a mountain and sat down cross-legged. When there was a battle, they would immediately fly out. When they were free, they would meditate and recuperate.
