After dealing with those Heavenly Demons, everyone continued to move forward. Although the size of the entire team was getting smaller and smaller, they were getting closer and closer to their goal.
The path formed by the scattered boulders was still very long. Except for the danger of stepping on air and falling down, it could be considered a smooth path.
After the final battle with the Heavenly Demons, everyone had to stop again after hundreds of thousands of years of traveling.
Looking at the front from afar, there was actually a row of giants wearing black iron armor blocking the path.
As they continued to move forward, the ancient starry sky path became much narrower. It was originally tens of thousands of miles wide, but now it was only tens of thousands of feet wide.
In the tens of thousands of feet wide passage, there were only a dozen or so boulders, which forced everyone to gather together. It also made it easy for the row of nine black iron giants to block the entire path.
Obviously, if they wanted to move forward, they had to first clear the obstacles on the path, which was to defeat the nine black iron giants.
The nine Black Iron Giants did not move at all. With the Black Iron Spears in their hands, they were like iron statues that had existed since time immemorial and were as immovable as mountains.
But if anyone dared to approach them, they would definitely be ruthlessly attacked by them.
After more than two hundred experts of the World of Immortals carefully observed for a while, the current generation of Haotian Evil Spirit Demon Lord took the lead and flew over.
Hong Jun Ancestor, Foodie, Xiao Lingyu, and more than a dozen experts who opened the path in front also took action. Everyone stepped on the boulders and flew towards the nine black iron giants.
When they were less than a hundred feet away from the nine black iron giants, the nine black iron giants suddenly seemed to be injected with life. The spears in their hands pierced forward together, and suddenly, nine sharp spear lights whistled out.
What surprised Xiao Lingyu was that the nine spear lights were clearly condensed from grandmist Xuan Qi.
An attack launched by grandmist Xuan Qi was naturally not a small matter. More than a dozen experts of the World of Immortals were shocked and stopped at the same time. Each of them used the grandmist Xuan Qi in their body to cast a technique to resist.
The reason why these experts were at the top was, first, because their cultivation was extremely high, and second, because they had cultivated and stored a lot of grandmist Xuan Qi.
This was a complete confrontation of grandmist profound energy. Even peak Star Realm experts who had not cultivated grandmist profound energy did not have the qualifications to participate.
Hong Jun Ancestor, Foodie, and Evil Spirit Demon Lord were stronger. Each of them was dealing with a Black Iron Giant. Xiao Lingyu, Donghuang, Fuxi, and other experts were dealing with a Black Iron Giant in pairs. It seemed that they had the upper hand, but in fact, they were at a disadvantage.
Those Black Iron Giants seemed to have an endless amount of Primordial Profound Qi in their bodies. Their attacks were very simple, without any fancy moves or spear techniques, but their attacks were always very fast and tyrannical, and they were always using Primordial Profound Qi to attack.
Not only were their attacks overbearing, but their defenses were also extraordinarily strong. Even if they were struck by Xiao Lingyu's Primordial Sword Radiance, their bodies, which seemed to be cast from black iron, would at most be dented. They were not penetrated, nor were they torn apart. Of course, it was impossible for them to be killed.
If they had a weakness, it would be that they seemed to only have a fighting consciousness, but not a true life consciousness. In other words, they were all puppets.
So, using soul attack magic to deal with them was also ineffective.
The only things that could truly threaten them were the Primordial Profound Flame and Evil Spirit Demon Lord's slate.
Although everyone had a lot of Primordial Profound Qi in their bodies, if they were to use the Primordial Profound Flame to attack, they would not be able to hold on for too long. But at this moment, they could only do so.
More than ten peak experts of the World of Immortals used their Primordial Profound Qi to ignite the Primordial Profound Flame. Then, the Primordial Profound Flame turned into fire dragons that rushed towards the nine Black Iron Giants, and ignited their bodies.
It was really useful. Being enveloped by the Primordial Profound Flame, the nine Black Iron Giants' movements appeared to be a lot slower, and their attacks were no longer powerful.
But the quality of their bodies was really too strong. Even the Primordial Profound Flame had a hard time incinerating them in a short period of time.
More than ten peak experts of the World of Immortals, each and every one of them desperately poured their Primordial Profound Qi into the Primordial Profound Flame, so that the Primordial Profound Flame could burn for a little longer.
The only one who could threaten the Black Iron Giants was the Evil Spirit Demon Master. He was constantly bombarding the nine Black Iron Giants with the stone slabs wrapped in Grandmist Profound Fire. Every time he attacked, he would cause a Black Iron Giant's body to change shape. If this continued, it wouldn't be long before these Black Iron Giants collapsed under the bombardment of the stone slabs.
The Primordial Profound Flame released by more than ten peak experts of the World of Immortals was extinguished one by one. Everyone did not have an unlimited amount of Primordial Profound Qi in their bodies.
Everyone was trying their best to persevere, squandering the Primordial Profound Qi in their bodies, then silently retreated.
Without Primordial Profound Qi, standing in front was not only dangerous, but also meaningless.
Xiao Lingyu's cultivation of Primordial Profound Qi was easier, so he had more Primordial Profound Qi in his body. Therefore, he had been persevering.
The Evil Spirit Demon Lord was also trying his best to increase the frequency of his attacks. Wherever the Primordial Profound Flame was weaker, he would focus his attacks on that side.
When most of the Primordial Profound Flame had been extinguished, the nine Black Iron Giants had already been smashed until their forms were distorted. It was impossible to see their original giant form. Each and every one of them looked like a pile of scrap iron pieced together into a lump. Even the Black Iron Spears in their hands were bent.
The Primordial Profound Flame and the Primordial Slate's bombardment had caused the nine Black Iron Giants' battle prowess to drop by too much. Even if the peak experts of the World of Immortals did not have a large amount of Primordial Profound Qi and were unable to release Primordial Profound Flame, it was still very difficult for them to threaten everyone's safety.
At this point in the battle, everyone could finally see the hope of victory. It was also the most dangerous moment.
Xiao Lingyu naturally went all out. Primordial Sword Radiance, Blood Light of Destruction, Primal Chaos Seal … all kinds of methods were continuously released.
The main attack was still the Evil Spirit Demon Lord. His Primordial Slate was the real powerful method.
However, even though the strength of the nine Black Iron Giants had dropped by a lot, they were still able to continuously release Primordial Profound Qi. Once the experts of the World of Immortals who did not have Primordial Profound Qi in their bodies were hit, most of them were seriously injured and retreated. There were also some who were directly blasted out of the void.
Among the more than ten peak experts who participated in the battle, two had already died in battle and five had retreated with serious injuries.
However, as time passed, the might of the nine Black Iron Giants became weaker and weaker. It seemed that they would not be able to hold on for too long.
Since the other party was weak, this side naturally had to strengthen their attacks. The experts of the World of Immortals quickly attacked with all kinds of powerful divine abilities.
Just when the aura of the nine Black Iron Giants had dropped to the extreme, they suddenly erupted with an incomparably powerful aura.
"Not good, quickly retreat!"
Hong Jun Ancestor shouted and immediately retreated.
Just as everyone was retreating in shock, the nine Black Iron Giants suddenly roared in unison. Their bodies shone with Primordial Profound Qi, and then, nine streaks of Primordial Profound Qi quickly gathered together and shot towards the direction of the Evil Spirit Demon Lord.
That streak of Primordial Profound Qi was mighty and powerful. Even the Evil Spirit Demon Lord felt his heart palpitate. However, he also realized that he could not dodge at all, so he used the slate to block.
The slate blocked that streak of Primordial Profound Qi in an instant. However, in the next moment, the Primordial Profound Qi surged past the slate and fiercely blasted onto the body of the Evil Spirit Demon Lord.
Although the Evil Spirit Demon Lord was strong, he had fought for too long. His condition was not as good as when he was at his peak. At this moment, after being hit by so much Primordial Profound Qi, his body could only hold on for a short while before suddenly exploding.
The slate that symbolized Celestial Venerable Hao's position shot out a ray of colorful light at this moment. It wrapped around a strand of Evil Spirit Demon Lord's broken soul and flashed into the starry sky with that strand of broken soul.
Soon after, the stone slab disappeared as well.
All of this was done in the blink of an eye. Everyone only had time to exclaim before everything was over.
The nine black iron giants fell silent again. However, there was no powerful aura overflowing from their bodies. It was obvious that their power had been exhausted.
"Evil Spirit Demon Lord … has fallen?" Donghuang asked in surprise.
"He has fallen. His fate wasn't high. This is already his limit."
Ancestor Hong Jun shook his head and sighed. Then, he said, "This is also the reason why I felt that it was a pity when I heard that he had obtained the position of Celestial Venerable Hao. Hao Tian came to the ancient path of stars, so he must have been a key target. If he wasn't a cultivator with an extremely high fate, he would have died sooner or later."
"However, at least he helped us get rid of these black iron giants. Moreover, he didn't die. He just fell into the cycle of reincarnation. Sooner or later, he will reach the peak of perfection," Donghuang said.
The fall of the Evil Spirit Demon Lord didn't shake everyone's will. It only made them sigh for a while.
Ancestor Hong Jun flew towards another black iron giant. Even when he was in front of it, the black iron giant didn't move at all.
"They are already useless. They no longer have any combat power," Ancestor Hong Jun said after checking for a while.
Foodie then flew towards a black iron giant. Originally, he opened his mouth wide and was about to swallow and digest it. However, after a pause, he gave up this plan. He wasn't afraid that he couldn't digest it, but that he was worried that he would encounter another accident.
"These are all left behind by that person. We can't take them."
As Ancestor Hong Jun spoke, he kept pushing the nine useless black iron giants into the void and watched them disappear.
Everyone began to recuperate again. It was mainly for the strong practitioners to accumulate primordial Qi and heal their injuries.
It still took an unknown amount of time. After everyone recovered, Ancestor Hong Jun led everyone forward.
After carefully walking for millions of years, this ancient path of stars paved with scattered boulders finally came to an end.
This could also be the end of the entire ancient path of stars.
Because in front of everyone was a stone staircase that was about 100,000 feet wide.
The stone staircase extended all the way up. Each level was three feet high, but they couldn't see where the top was.
Instead, in front of the first level of the stone staircase, there was a stone tablet that was thousands of feet tall. On it, there were two vertical lines of words —
Those who don't enter the cycle of reincarnation are all ants. Only by gathering the primordial chaos can one become the heavens.
