"Old Ancestor, what do you mean by that?"
Donghuang and the other top experts of the World of Immortals looked at Old Ancestor Hong Jun, the senior with the highest realm.
"Those who don't enter the cycle of reincarnation are all ants. It's very simple. If you don't experience reincarnation and re-cultivate, you will always be an ant. No matter how high your cultivation is, you won't be able to break through the fate of an ant. You won't be able to escape the fate of an ant."
"As for the Primordial World, it should mean that your body and mind become the Primordial World. Your entire body is the Primordial Body, Primordial Heart, Primordial Infant, Primordial Soul, Primordial Muscles, Bones, Blood, and Flesh … Only then can you become the Heavens, jump out of the fate of the chessboard, and truly control yourself."
Old Ancestor Hong Jun squinted and explained with a bitter smile.
"But only Haotian can enter the cycle of reincarnation. Ordinary cultivators will completely disappear if they die. How can they reincarnate?" Donghuang was puzzled.
"Moreover, even if you get the position of Celestial Venerable Hao, you won't be able to break through the peak of the Star Realm. When you reach the ancient path of stars, you will still be a key target to be killed. It's also difficult to ascend to the Heavens." An expert of the World of Immortals was also puzzled.
"The reason why Haotian can easily disappear on the ancient path of stars and why no Haotian can truly ascend to the Heavens is probably because that person knows the threat of Haotian, so he deliberately set up many disasters to kill Haotian."
Old Ancestor Hong Jun sighed again and continued, "Haotian should be the only hope to ascend to the Heavens!"
"The cultivators who used to be Haotian and cultivated until now through reincarnation and came here, is there any hope?" Foodie suddenly asked.
"There should be. The key is to cultivate the body of Primordial World." Old Ancestor Hong Jun nodded.
"Then isn't there no hope for us?" Donghuang and the other experts were a little disappointed.
"It's not that you have no hope. As long as you find the position of Celestial Venerable Hao, even if you get it temporarily and then die, as long as you struggle in the cycle of reincarnation, there will be hope." Old Ancestor Hong Jun shook his head and comforted them.
"Not to mention how difficult it is to get the position of Celestial Venerable Hao, it is extremely difficult to reach the peak again after countless reincarnations."
"What's more, one has to cultivate the Primordial Physique. How many peerless geniuses have come to the ancient path of stars? Who has cultivated the Primordial Physique? Or who can cultivate it?"
At this moment, the experts from the Lifelong Realm were all filled with despair.
"If it's not difficult and everyone can ascend to the heavens, what's the point of ascending to the heavens?"
Hong Jun Ancestor continued, "Although these words are reasonable, they may not be true. They may be deliberately written by that person to make us despair and lose our fighting spirit. So many sufferings and tortures along the way did not defeat us. Are we going to be defeated by these words?"
Hearing Hong Jun Ancestor's words, everyone's expressions gradually returned to normal, and they felt better.
"Although we have not reincarnated, we have cultivated for countless years. Our realms are definitely not inferior to those Haotian who have reincarnated countless times. As long as we cultivate the Hongmeng Body, we can also transcend the Mandate of Heaven."
Hong Jun Ancestor continued to encourage him, "We have worked hard on the Ancient Star Road for countless years, and now we are about to reach the end. How can we give up halfway?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ancestor Hong Jun took the lead and flew to the first step.
As soon as his feet stepped on the first step, the space above the first step was distorted, and then a force that was not very strong raged on the steps.
That force was like a gust of wind, crazily blowing Hong Jun Ancestor's body, as if it wanted to push him away from the steps. However, except for his fluttering clothes, his body stood firmly.
Seeing this, everyone jumped to the first step.
The strange thing was that the more cultivators that jumped onto the first step, the weaker the force became.
Xiao Lingyu felt for a while and found that the force itself did not weaken, but was shared equally by everyone.
Because of the division, it became weaker.
In this way, it was easy for everyone to come to a conclusion that the more practitioners there were, the easier it would be to reach the top of the steps.
As everyone inferred, the second step, the third step, the fourth step, the fifth step … until more than 8,000 steps, the repulsive force on each step became stronger and stronger. If an ordinary practitioner at the peak of the Star Realm came alone, he could not reach more than 8,000 steps at all, but everyone came together.
Every time everyone took off together, the originally strong repulsive force would be divided into more than 200 strands in an instant, and it suddenly became much weaker.
There should be more than 9,000 steps on this step. The last 1,000 steps gave everyone a lot of resistance. They could no longer climb hundreds of steps without rest like before.
Starting from the 8,633rd step, every time they went up, they would consume a lot of internal force, so they had to take a rest every time they went up.
The higher they went, the longer they had to rest each time.
Fortunately, they did not encounter any danger, but it was more and more difficult to go up.
With one more practitioner, there would be less pressure. Therefore, even if some practitioners recovered slowly, everyone would wait patiently until everyone was in peak condition before continuing.
As Xiao Lingyu was already very strong, his recovery speed was also very fast. Therefore, he was actually very relaxed. While other cultivators were recovering and resting, he would either continue to cultivate the Primordial Qi or enter the Reincarnation Dream Realm.
In fact, everyone was secretly rejoicing in their hearts. Fortunately, there were many practitioners here this time. Otherwise, not to mention reaching the top of the steps, even if it was an existence like Hong Jun Ancestor, it would be difficult for a single practitioner to reach the 8,000th step.
When everyone reached the 9,600th step, they could see the top of the stone steps.
At the end of the stone steps, there were two tall stone pillars. There were carvings on the stone pillars, but no one could see what the carvings were.
In the middle of the two stone pillars, there was a gate. There was a plaque above the gate with the words "Heaven's Gate" written on it.
Seeing the gate and the words "Heaven's Gate", everyone was a little excited, as if they had been lost for many years and finally saw the gate of their home. They were also like travelers in the desert who saw an oasis.
Today, the goal that they had been fighting for for many years finally revealed its true face in the fog. Even Xiao Lingyu had the impulse to cheer.
Seeing the Heaven's Gate, everyone naturally worked harder.
They continued to climb up.
The higher they went, the stronger the repulsive force was, and the longer they needed to rest and prepare.
Practitioners at the level of Hong Jun Ancestor, Xiao Lingyu, and Foodie had more free time. They did not consume much energy each time, and it took a short time for them to recover. Therefore, they had a lot of time to wait for other practitioners. At the end, they had to wait for at least hundreds of thousands of years for every step.
When everyone reached the 9,997th step, they were two steps away from the Heaven's Gate. However, because the repulsive force was too strong, they could not reach the second last step, let alone reach the top.
Hong Jun Ancestor took out many elixirs, which were used to enhance the practitioners' internal force and strength. Every practitioner got one.
With the help of these elixirs, everyone went up to the 9,998th step. One more step and they would be able to reach the Heaven's Gate.
Hong Jun Ancestor brought so many elixirs to enhance his internal force and strength. It was as if he had been prepared and knew that these elixirs were needed here. Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised.
However, thinking that Hong Jun Ancestor had a very strong divination skill, Xiao Lingyu was relieved.
However, even with the help of the elixirs, they could not continue to move forward on the last step.
The repulsive force gushed out from the top, which was the 9,999th step, and no one could resist it at all.
Xiao Lingyu, who had been very relaxed before, also could not resist the huge repulsive force with all his strength. The same was true for Foodie, Hong Jun Ancestor, and other top practitioners.
"It seems that what is written on the stone tablet below is true. Only by really practicing the Hongmeng Body can we reach the Heaven's Gate." Donghuang shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Don't worry, as long as more practitioners come, we may be able to go up." Hong Jun Ancestor persuaded.
"Almost everyone who can come is here. Who else can come?" A cultivator said without much hope.
"Since we can come, there are naturally other practitioners who can come." Hong Jun Ancestor said with confidence.
"The World of Immortals may have collapsed. Who can come up later?" Xiao Lingyu also frowned and said.
"The World of Immortals will not collapse." Hong Jun Ancestor said firmly.
No one had a better choice, so they could only wait here.
Anyone could imagine that even if more cultivators were to arrive, it would take a very long time for them to arrive.
But now on the 9,998th step, everyone could barely stand firm. While recovering, they used the newly recovered strength to resist the repulsive force. They could not really cultivate, let alone make progress.
Xiao Lingyu could continue to accumulate Hongmeng Xuan Qi. Knowing that it would take a long time, he occasionally entered the reincarnation dream to cultivate.
Time passed quietly like this …
Waiting was lonely, especially this kind of boring wait of constant recovery and consumption. For ordinary practitioners, it was a kind of torture.
A thousand years, ten thousand years, or even a hundred million years of waiting was nothing to the cultivators here. After all, they had been cultivating for countless years and had long since gotten used to the days of loneliness. However, this kind of waiting was the most difficult to endure.
Almost all the experts of the World of Immortals came to the Ancient Star Road. Most of them died on the Ancient Star Road, and only a few of them came here.
Other practitioners had not even reached the Star Extreme Realm. It was really difficult to estimate how much time it would take for a large number of practitioners to reach the Peak Star Extreme Realm and be willing to go to the Ancient Star Road.
But in this kind of waiting days, Xiao Lingyu kept making progress in the Reincarnation Dream. The Star Universe in his inner world kept increasing the Hongmeng Xuan Qi storage, so it was not a waste of time.
