The space-time portal was right in front of him. Jiang Xiaofan glanced at it and could feel the incomparably terrifying power contained inside, as if it could tear everything apart.
"The ancient road is in a special space, which is equivalent to a huge world. Only Dao God Realm experts or people with ancient tokens can enter."
Old Man Ye explained.
Jiang Xiaofan nodded and glanced at the golden token in his hand. His expression was very calm.
He turned around and looked into the small village.
In the village, Ye Qingrou was still sitting on top of a small thatched cottage. When she saw Jiang Xiaofan's gaze, she waved at him. On her shoulder, Huanghuang also let out a cheerful cry.
Jiang Xiaofan raised his hand but put it down in the end.
"Old man, I'm leaving."
He said to Old Man Ye.
Old Man Ye blew his beard and glared. He was very dissatisfied with the way Jiang Xiaofan addressed him.
"Remember, come back alive. Safety is the most important. I don't want that girl Qingrou to be alone forever."
He said.
Jiang Xiaofan had already stepped into the space-time portal with one foot. Hearing this, he trembled slightly. He turned around and looked at the small village again. That familiar figure was quietly looking at him with a faint smile on her face.
"I won't die so easily. I won't die."
He said.
His voice was very calm, but it revealed a strong sense of confidence.
He naturally wouldn't die. He couldn't die.
"Goodbye."
He said one last sentence. His figure flashed and instantly stepped into the space-time portal.
The portal disappeared. Old Man Ye stood outside the small village. After a while, he turned around and walked back into the small village. He sat down in front of the stone table in the small village.
"Yo, old man, are you worried about your grandson-in-law?"
Old Man Cang teased.
Old Man Ye's face darkened. He couldn't be bothered with him.
In the small cottage not far away in the village, Ye Qingrou looked at the sky. Her eyes were very peaceful and beautiful. No one knew what she was thinking.
"The ancient road won't be peaceful. Kid, be careful."
Old Man Ye muttered to himself.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaofan was in a boundless darkness. There was a huge tearing force around his body as if it was going to tear his divine body apart. He actually felt pain.
"Buzz!"
The golden token in his hand emitted a faint light, and a light screen protected him.
"If it wasn't for this thing, I really wouldn't be able to hold on this tunnel."
He thought to himself.
This gave him a further understanding of the ancient road............ terrifying..
After an unknown amount of time, a glimmer of light appeared in front of him. Jiang Xiaofan subconsciously blocked it with his hand. Then, there was a tremor and he was thrown out of the tunnel, landing on a huge stone platform. As far as the eye could see, the stone platform appeared to be rather vast and astonishingly vast. It was even wider than the training field in the Heavenly Court that could accommodate a hundred thousand people at the same time. It was completely made of chaos stones, and at this moment, the stone platform was filled with figures.
Jiang Xiaofan roughly scanned them and estimated that there were about two thousand of them.
Standing on this training ground, these figures all had fearful and hostile expressions on their faces, and their auras were extremely powerful. Jiang Xiaofan was shocked. The weakest of these people was at stage two of Dao Realm and that was really terrifying.
"We're here."
He whispered.
From the looks of it, this should be the location of the 3,000 Great Trials.
He gazed into the distance. Sure enough, a thousand miles away, he saw a majestic divine city. There was a kind of vicissitude and ancient aura that made one feel awe and respect. The Divine City didn't have a signboard, but at the center of the city gate, there was a large word engraved in ancient seal script … "One", indicating that it was the number one Divine City.
Above and outside the city, Jiang Xiaofan saw guards in silver armor. These people all had cold expressions and emitted an extremely dangerous aura, which made Jiang Xiaofan's heart tremble. Among these people, the weakest was at stage three but now they were defending the city.
And this was only the first Divine City.
One could imagine how strong the city guards would be in the later ones.
"Terrifying."
Jiang Xiaofan muttered to himself.
He suddenly recalled that Ye Qingrou had destroyed the three thousand ancient roads of the Great Trial of Refinement and almost completely destroyed the one hundred and eight divine cities. Moreover, she had done it unintentionally. This kind of strength was truly a bit frightening.
"How strong is she? Has she reached the peak of the Dao God Realm?"
He was a little shocked.
Thinking about it, he really felt a little helpless. This woman clearly looked quiet and weak, but her true strength was actually so terrifying.
"Kid, you're quite early!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice spread over.
Jiang Xiaofan turned his head and saw a fatty jumping over. Who else could it be but Wei Ka?
Seeing a familiar face, Jiang Xiaofan smiled.
"You're not late either."
He smiled.
Around, seeing Jiang Xiaofan and Wei Ka talking and laughing, many people frowned. Some of them revealed hostility and coldness. On this ancient path, everyone was an opponent, a competitor, and everyone fought for themselves. Now, when these people saw how harmonious the relationship between Jiang Xiaofan and Wei Ka was, they couldn't help but arouse killing intent.
If they were too close, they might join forces in the future. At that time, compared to them fighting alone, Jiang Xiaofan and Wei Ka's combat strength would definitely be stronger. This would be a huge threat to them.
Jiang Xiaofan naturally felt the killing intent of these people and frowned.
"Don't mind them. These people are just crazy. If they want to team up, they can just find someone to work with. But they treat everyone as an enemy. Even if they were good friends, as long as they step on this path, they will treat each other as an enemy. How should I put it? It's really ironic and sad."
Wei Ka shrugged.
"Indeed."
Jiang Xiaofan nodded.
If it was because they didn't trust strangers and didn't want to work with others, he could understand. But to be cautious and keep a distance from his former friends, he really felt sad. Of course, it was even more laughable.
Gradually, more and more people appeared on the altar.
The dense crowd quickly divided into two groups. One group had a lot of people, and the other group had a lot less people.
"This is?"
Jiang Xiaofan was puzzled.
At the side, Wei Ka explained, "Look over there. The side with fewer people are all Middle Heavens, and our side is all Lower Heavens. Upper Heavens are disdainful of Middle and Lower Heavens, and Middle Heavens are disdainful of Lower Heavens. Therefore, every time the three thousand Great Trials, the Upper, Middle, and Lower Heavens cultivators would automatically separate after arriving on the altar. This is called birds of a feather flocking together. "
Jiang Xiaofan nodded, "You know quite a lot."
"Of course, the old man has taught me a lot of things."
Wei Ka said.
Not far away, there were hundreds of Middle Heavens cultivators. All of them were cold and arrogant, and when they looked at the area where Jiang Xiaofan and the others were, they all looked at them with disdain.
Regarding this, Jiang Xiaofan was speechless.
They were clearly being oppressed by the Upper Heavens, what were these people so proud of?
"Why are there only two areas?"
He asked Wei Ka.
Wei Ka said, "The cultivators of the Upper Heavens haven't arrived yet. Those fellows all think that the world revolves around them, and we should wait for them."
As soon as he finished speaking, a space-time portal appeared in front of him. One figure after another walked out, chatting and laughing with each other. All of them were dressed in gorgeous clothes and had powerful auras. Very quickly, a group of people walked out of the space-time portal. There were exactly a hundred of them.
"Aren't there only ninety-eight left in the Upper Heavens?"
Jiang Xiaofan did not understand.
Wei Ka explained, "Although those two Upper Heavens were once destroyed by sister-in-law, in any case, there were still Dao Protectors who survived. Although the heaven and earth were not rebuilt, there are still descendants. Naturally, there will be representatives who will come."
Jiang Xiaofan nodded. So that was how it was.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, he frowned as he felt a few cold gazes on him.
He raised his head and saw that in the area where the Upper Celestials were, there were four people looking at him. Their eyes were cold, and there was a cold killing intent in them.
On the other side, the four of them were surprised to see that Jiang Xiaofan had actually sensed their killing intent. However, this was only for an instant. The four of them returned to normal in the next moment. One of them raised his hand and made a throat-slitting gesture towards Jiang Xiaofan. There was a faint sneer on his face.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned, somewhat puzzled.
These people were clearly targeting him, but why? Before this, he had never seen these people before. However, these people seemed to know him and immediately found him. This was very strange.
"Hong long long!"
Suddenly, the god city ahead shook. The city gates opened and dust rose into the air.
Within the city gates, an iron cavalry walked out. On it sat a tall and muscular middle-aged man. This middle-aged man had a scar on his face and his eyes were extremely cold. He gave off a bloody aura and gave off a huge suppression. The moment he appeared, many cultivators were shocked.
"Very strong, I estimate that he is at Dao Realm Stage Eight."
Wei Ka said softly.
Jiang Xiaofan nodded. That was indeed the case. This middle-aged man was a little terrifying and much stronger than them.
Wei Ka said, "He should be the commander of this god city. His combat strength is only weaker than the city lord."
"Commander? City lord? "
Jiang Xiaofan was confused.
Wei Ka explained, "If there is a god city, naturally there will be a city lord. If there is a city lord, of course there will be a commander and soldiers. Otherwise, there will be no order in the 3,000 ancient roads."
Jiang Xiaofan nodded, "That is true."
The middle-aged man rode out on the iron cavalry. There were 10 guards behind him and all of them were experts.
He sat on his horse, and his cold eyes swept across everyone on the divine platform. He said coldly, "Congratulations to all of you for coming to the ancient road of trials. This is your fortune. Here, you can show off to your heart's content and compete with the experts of various worlds, constantly surpassing yourselves. This is also your misfortune. Because here, you can die at any moment and turn into dust. No one will remember you. "
His voice was really cold, causing many people's expressions to turn serious.
Only the people in the Upper Sky region were calm and didn't care at all.
"Now, I will give all of you a chance. You can choose to back out of this trial and return to your own world. Of course, your world's rankings will drop to the bottom. I will give you 10 breaths of time to consider. If no one backs out, then the trial will truly begin. "
The middle-aged commander said calmly.
10 breaths of time passed quickly, and no one backed out.
The middle-aged commander's lips curled into a cold smile. He glanced at the platform and said coldly, "Very good. Now, the first test will begin. Everyone will enter the Dark Forest to kill Dao Realm demonic beasts and obtain their beast cores. Those who obtain three Dao Realm beast cores will pass and step onto the ancient road. Those who fail will return."
"What!?"
Most of the cultivators' expressions changed when they heard this.
"The previous trials didn't seem to have this step?"
"What's going on?"
Many people asked.
Jiang Xiaofan was puzzled. At this moment, he saw the middle-aged man sweeping his gaze over the Divine Platform again. Faintly, he felt that the middle-aged man was staring at him. This caused his heart to sink as he smelled a conspiracy.
