"As the saying goes, a general's success is built on thousands of bones. Those who died were all unlucky. That was their fate. Even if I didn't scheme against them, they would still die for other reasons."
Pangu said to Great Sage Sun, "At least, you can witness a cultivator enter the Gate of Heaven. This means that you didn't work in vain."
Great Sage Sun sneered and replied, "Even if you enter the Gate of Heaven, it doesn't mean that you will succeed. After the Gate of Heaven, there must be a so-called heaven-like existence. Do you think you can defeat him?"
"I will definitely win!"
Pangu seemed very confident. He said, "If that person is really strong enough, why would he set up so many obstacles on this ancient path of the stars to prevent us from reaching the top? The countless difficulties show that he is also afraid, afraid that we will enter the Gate of Heaven! He has always been outside the game because he is behind the Gate of Heaven. When I enter the Gate of Heaven, I will also be outside the game. I was able to set up the game like this in the game. What reason do I have to lose to him outside the game? "
"I admit that what you said is reasonable, but there are too many things that have failed in the face of great success," Great Sage Sun replied indifferently.
"Haha! Just wait and see!" Pangu laughed loudly.
After a long wait, finally, more than 30 cultivators came to the bottom of the stone steps and were then restrained by Pangu's great magic.
"Come on, everyone, let's rush up together!"
Pangu knew that the number of cultivators was enough, so he shouted excitedly.
Ordinary cultivators were trapped by Pangu and had to follow his orders. Although Xiao Lingyu and Ye Qiu were not controlled, they had to cooperate with Pangu for the sake of the many cultivators of the Xiao family.
Everyone exerted their strength together and broke through the repulsive force on the stone steps at the top.
The repulsive force on the top was very strong, but just like below, it was distributed to every cultivator. The reason why they couldn't come up before was that there were not enough cultivators.
"Don't move!"
After reaching the top, Pangu pointed at Xiao Lingyu and shouted.
Xiao Lingyu shrugged and remained silent.
Pangu stared at Xiao Lingyu nervously, afraid that Xiao Lingyu would reach the Gate of Heaven before him.
Pangu naturally did not dare to touch the cultivators of the Xiao Clan. He did not want to anger Xiao Lingyu at the last moment. He knew very well that Xiao Lingyu, who had also experienced countless reincarnations and cultivated the Primordial Body, was also qualified to enter the Heaven Gate.
Xiao Lingyu was concerned about the safety of her family and had no intention of touching the Divine Gate.
Pan Gu slowly walked to the Gate of Heaven and reached out to push it.
The Heavenly Gate was not pushed open, but it emitted a Primordial light that enveloped Pangu.
The Primordial light circled around Pangu's body, then suddenly disappeared.
The Heavenly Gate slowly opened.
Pangu was right in front of the Gate of Heaven, and no one dared to rush over.
When the gate was two feet wide, Pan Gu flew in and disappeared in front of everyone.
Everything Pangu had done was to enter the Gate of Heaven. Now that he had achieved his goal, there was naturally no need to make things difficult for the Xiao Clan cultivators.
After Pangu entered the Gate of Heaven, the Gate of Heaven suddenly closed before anyone could see the situation behind it.
Even without Pangu, the number of cultivators at the top was enough to resist the powerful repulsive force.
"If Pangu can enter, you should be able to enter too," Great Sage Sun said to Xiao Lingyu.
"Let me give it a try."
Xiao Lingyu pressed her palm on the Gate of Heaven like Pangu did. Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, the Gate of Heaven did not respond.
Even if she pushed hard, the Gate of Heaven still did not open.
"It seems that only one cultivator can enter at a time. We can only wait for Pangu." Great Sage Sun shook his head and said.
Pangu entered the Gate of Heaven like a clay ox entering the sea. It did not stir up any waves, and there was no news of him since then.
The Gate of Heaven had always been quiet and sturdy. Everyone tried their best to open it again but was unable to do so.
They could only wait patiently!
While waiting, there were still cultivators rushing to the bottom of the stone steps one after another.
Xiao Lingyu felt that it was not easy for these cultivators to reach the Gate of Heaven. Everyone had worked hard and fought, and they all had the qualifications to approach the Gate of Heaven. So, she led the cultivators at the top to welcome them.
Therefore, more and more cultivators gathered in front of the Gate of Heaven, but everyone was still unable to open the Gate of Heaven.
With so many powerhouses sweeping through the Ancient Starry Sky Road again and again, the originally incomparably dangerous Ancient Starry Sky Road had now become a smooth road. As long as one could enter, and as long as their luck was not extremely bad, they would be able to smoothly reach the side of the stone steps.
The legend of the Ancient Starry Sky Road had always existed in the World of Immortals. As long as a cultivator's cultivation reached the peak of the Star Realm and was unable to break through for a long time, they would have the idea of exploring the Ancient Starry Sky Road. Therefore, more and more cultivators entered the Ancient Starry Sky Road and were then led to the Gate of Heaven by Xiao Lingyu.
The number of cultivators in front of the Gate of Heaven first exceeded a thousand, then three thousand, and then ten thousand …
The number of cultivators in front of the Gate of Heaven had just exceeded ten thousand. What no one expected was that the Gate of Heaven would actually open by itself.
For a long time, everyone had formed the habit of following Xiao Lingyu as their leader. Xiao Lingyu's humility and easy-going attitude, as well as his magnanimity and powerful strength, had already convinced everyone.
After all, Xiao Lingyu was the only cultivator who had cultivated the Primordial Body. Moreover, his cultivation was extremely high. When everyone saw him, they would think of Pangu and compare him. Naturally, they would feel that Xiao Lingyu was more trustworthy.
Even though the Gate of Heaven had opened, everyone first looked at Xiao Lingyu.
"Shall we go in and take a look?" Xiao Lingyu faced everyone and asked.
No one nodded. However, their expressions were filled with excitement and anticipation.
Xiao Lingyu could see that everyone wanted to enter the Gate of Heaven. After all, didn't they wait for countless years just to enter the Gate of Heaven?
Even Xiao Lingyu's wives and children were clearly restless.
Thus, Xiao Lingyu led everyone through the Gate of Heaven.
Beyond the Gate of Heaven was a vast expanse of void. Within the boundless void, there was also a vast expanse of stars.
If one were to count them carefully, they would discover that there were exactly ten thousand stars in the void.
As for the ten thousand stars, they were arranged parallel to each other. They were like chess pieces on a chessboard.
Xiao Lingyu led everyone into the starry sky.
Looking at it up close, the ten thousand stars looked more and more like chess pieces, and the starry sky looked more and more like a chessboard.
And at the edge of the starry sky, there was an extremely large shining stone slab. On it were two lines of large words —
The hearts of all people solve the game of chess, and the success of a general will be in vain.
"What does that mean?" Jiang Lanchang was a little confused.
"The meaning is actually not that profound. It means that with the support of all people and the help of all people, one can solve this game of chess and achieve the Heavenly Dao."
Donghuang narrowed his eyes and smiled. "If it's only a powerhouse who has cultivated the Primordial Body and has experienced countless reincarnations, he can only sigh in vain and be helpless here."
Everyone understood Donghuang's explanation.
"What about Pan Gu?" Great Sage Sun asked.
"He probably didn't give up and entered the game of chess. As for the current situation, it's unknown." Donghuang replied.
"There's only one person who can achieve the Heavenly Dao, but he still needs the hearts of all people."
Great Sage Sun continued, "The reason why the Heavenly Gate opened automatically for us is probably because we have the hearts of all people. And the person who wants to achieve the Heavenly Dao must have the support of all people. Of course, the stone slab at the bottom of the stone steps clearly states that to achieve the Heavenly Dao, one must enter reincarnation and gather the Primordial Body. "
Thus, everyone looked at Xiao Lingyu. Right now, he was the only one who could fulfill all these conditions.
Faced with the temptation of achieving the Heavenly Dao, most cultivators would definitely find it hard to resist, but Xiao Lingyu hesitated at this moment.
Firstly, he didn't have much desire to achieve the Heavenly Dao. He also didn't want to control the fate of other cultivators and become a supreme existence.
Secondly, he still felt that things weren't that simple. There were hints and guidance every step of the way. These hints and guidance were obviously not automatically generated, but deliberately made by cultivators. If this continued, it might not be the right path.
"I feel that the Heavenly Dao shouldn't exist in the first place! So we don't have to solve the game of chess. We can just destroy it! "
"From now on, there will be no more Heavenly Dao!"
Xiao Lingyu narrowed his eyes and said to everyone.
When everyone heard this, they were first stunned, then looked at him with approval.
"Our hearts are not for the Heavenly Dao. We can only solve the game of chess for the sake of destroying the Heavenly Dao Chessboard, for the sake of … no more Heavenly Dao!"
Xiao Lingyu raised his arms and shouted loudly.
"No more Heavenly Dao!"
Tens of thousands of cultivators responded together.
Then, Xiao Lingyu led the tens of thousands of cultivators behind him to attack the chessboard together.
Although the chessboard was exquisite, under the combined attacks of tens of thousands of cultivators, it shook and trembled …
After a full four hours of bombardment, only one star exploded.
Then, one star after another, tens of thousands of stars all exploded within a few days.
"I hate it!"
When all the stars were destroyed, an old but very loud voice suddenly surged in the void.
The image of an old man appeared. He said, "I calculated everything and was about to succeed, but I didn't expect that someone would give up the chance to become the Heavenly Dao!"
"I hate it too!"
Pan Gu's silhouette showed up in the air again. He said, "I fell into your trap. I entered the Gate of Heaven alone, into your chess game. Now, the game is destroyed. You and I are both going to die. I've tried everything I could against you, but in the end, it's all in vain!"
The old man's image smiled bitterly. "You also had the chance to lead tens of thousands of cultivators to destroy the chessboard. Unfortunately, you were greedy."
From these words, Xiao Lingyu could guess that if he led tens of thousands of cultivators into the chessboard and wanted to solve it, he wouldn't be able to become the Heavenly Dao. Instead, he would be schemed against.
For a long time, everyone, including Xiao Lingyu, had been schemed against. However, at the last moment, Xiao Lingyu's choice surprised this old man who was obviously the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Hmph!" Pangu snorted coldly. His image and the old man's image were both fading.
"You are actually not the first Haotian. I am!"
The old man said, "Unfortunately, when I reached the peak and stood alone at the highest point, I wanted to break through and leave this world. Therefore, I opened up this Ancient Road of Stars. This is actually a space passage that penetrates the original space barrier of this world. What I didn't expect was that in the endless years, this space passage I opened up didn't connect to other worlds. There was only an endless void and endless loneliness … "
No wonder the void on both sides of the Ancient Road of Stars was so dangerous. It turned out that it was the space barrier of the World of Immortals. How could it not be dangerous?
"Furthermore, the more I continued to open it up, the more energy I needed to maintain the stability of the entire space passage. I couldn't hold on any longer. Therefore, I turned back and set up the Ancient Road of Stars. I set up the stone steps, the Heavenly Gate, and the Celestial Chessboard just now. In fact, I only set up a scam to deceive the strong practitioners of the World of Immortals into coming to the Ancient Road of Stars. I knew that the more dangerous and strange a place is, the more it attracts strong practitioners, especially those top-notch ones. "
"Reality proved that my scam was very clever. Indeed, there were always top-notch strong practitioners who were tricked. Unfortunately, it was difficult for them to reach the end. After they died on the Ancient Road of Stars, their cultivation and energy would become the energy that maintained the stability of the Ancient Road of Stars for a long time. Otherwise, the Ancient Road of Stars would have collapsed long ago."
"However, after I finished setting up everything, I prepared to continue opening up this space passage. It's just ahead …"
At this point, the elder pointed to the distance and continued, "Just as I started to open it up, I advanced less than a hundred feet. However, Celestial Venerable Hao's position suddenly became chaotic in my body. It collapsed my body and soul and flew away. I was only left with a remnant soul. However, the Heavenly Gate that I had personally created blocked my way back. I couldn't enter the cycle of reincarnation. After becoming Hao Tian, I shouldn't be too far away from my original world. I should have crossed the boundary, which was why I met with such a calamity. I hid in the Celestial Chessboard that I had set up and used my remnant soul to control the chessboard. I had a chance of survival because this chessboard was my backup plan. If I met with misfortune and hid in the chessboard, as long as more and more strong practitioners entered the chessboard, I would be able to borrow the power of the chessboard to obtain a chance of rebirth. What a pity, how hateful … No matter how exquisite the plan is, it's impossible to calculate everything. "
Xiao Lingyu finally understood. He asked suspiciously, "Did you control our fates? How do you explain the saying of fate?"
The shadowy old man shook his head and said, "Fate can't really be controlled because the future can't be clearly presented. The saying of fate is a lie!"
At this point, the shadowy old man's shadow finally became completely transparent and then disappeared completely.
"Haha …"
Pangu's shadow let out a loud laugh and then disappeared.
Pangu's laughter was full of complicated meanings. From that laughter, Xiao Lingyu's doubts became much clearer.
By now, Xiao Lingyu could think of a lot of things. Everything was not controlled by anyone. It was just a game between Pangu and the shadowy old man. Pangu thought that he had calculated everything, but he was still schemed against and ended up in a miserable state. He and many other practitioners were just implicated in it. They were schemed against and deceived, but they didn't really step into the abyss of conspiracy.
Because this was a game of chess, there were lies and calculations in it. That was why everyone felt that their fates were controlled and that they were chess pieces.
It was unknown whether it was because of the death of the old man or the destruction of the Celestial Chessboard, but the void showed signs of instability. The entire Ancient Road of the Stars suddenly shook, and even the Gate of Heaven shattered.
"It seems like this place is going to collapse. We have to hurry back to the World of Immortals."
After that, Xiao Lingyu led the tens of thousands of cultivators out of the Gate of Heaven. They followed the ancient path in the starry sky and headed towards the World of Immortals.
