Above the Realm Sea, there were many strong cultivators. Countless people were discussing the opening of the Holy Road.
Across the Realm Sea was Duantian Mountain. It was as sharp as a knife and reached the heavens. Qin Yin looked at the peak of Duantian Mountain and walked around it. She said, "Does Sage Duantian live in the mountains?"
"That's what the rumors say." Li Xun nodded. The sky above Duantian Mountain was misty and hard to see with the naked eye.
Only Noble cultivators could vaguely see the illusion of the palace at the peak, but no one dared to disturb it.
Sage Duantian was a strong cultivator on the Barren Sky Ranking. His cultivation was unfathomable. Not many people in the vast Barren State dared to provoke him.
"It's said that Sage Duantian's disciple will go to the Holy Road to train. The nearest Holy Road is the Dawn Road. It should be the same as ours," someone said not far away.
Sage Duantian's disciple might not necessarily enter the Holy Zhi Palace to cultivate, but he could still participate in the trial of the Holy Road. The Holy Zhi Palace had never required anyone to enter the Holy Road.
"Someone is coming down from the mountain." At that moment, a huge warship appeared at the peak of Duantian Mountain. It flew over the crowd's heads. On the warship, one could vaguely see a group of extremely outstanding people standing on it. They were like divine sons and goddesses from the Nine Heavens.
"The warship of the Mortal World." Someone exclaimed when they saw the symbol on the warship. The Mortal World was the top force in this area. It was considered the top tier in the entire Barren State.
"The disciples of the Mortal World must be passing by Duantian Mountain to pay their respects to Sage Duantian."
"It's said that there will be several extremely talented people from the Mortal World who will enter the Holy Road. They will also go through the Dawn Road." In the surrounding air, people started discussing. The warship streaked past the heads of the crowd. On the warship, a beautiful woman stood there quietly, her robes fluttering in the wind as her hair fluttered in the wind.
She was Chu Shang, a lower Noble Plane cultivator.
If Ye Futian saw her, he would definitely recognize her. She was the disciple of the Mortal World who had been to the Eastern Barren Territory. She had even tried to rope him into the Mortal World to cultivate.
"The various top forces have also taken action." Although she was the beloved daughter of the sage of Mount Jiuxian and had exceptional talent, she knew very well that even she might not be able to stand out on the Holy Road. This was a gathering of the geniuses of the Barren State. Although the Dawn Road was only one of the nine Holy Roads, the lineup would still be extremely terrifying.
Therefore, she needed to join hands with the people from the five cities to have a chance.
"Nantian House will probably choose the Fifth Earthly Branch as well," Xie Wuji said.
"There are also many aristocratic families and powerful sects." Qin Yin gazed into the distance. Ye Futian's eyes sparkled when he heard her words. He had seen the map before. The Mortal World and the Nantian House were indeed in this direction. Now that they had entered the Zhongzhou Territory, would these two top forces who had been to the Eastern Barren Territory choose the same Holy Road as him?
At the edge of the Dawn Road was an extremely ancient city, the Palace Ruins.
It was rumored that the city had collapsed many times but was rebuilt again and again. It was the only way to get to the Dawn Road, so the city was extremely prosperous. Especially when the Holy Road opened once every three years, the Palace Ruins would be filled with people. People from all over the region would rush to the city and descend upon the Sea of Ruins to the west of the city.
The Sea of Ruins was the place that led to the Holy Road.
At the moment, countless cultivators gathered on the shore of the Sea of Ruins. At a glance, the shore was filled with geniuses from all over the Barren State.
The opening of the Holy Road had always been one of the grandest events in the Barren State. How could it not cause a commotion?
When Ye Futian arrived and saw the vast crowd, he was slightly shocked. The lineup this time was too terrifying. There were probably more than 100,000 people. Furthermore, it was not the time for the Dawn Road to open yet. Many more people were still on their way.
"Across the Sea of Ruins is the Dawn Road. After that, we will reach the Holy Zhi Palace." At the moment, someone looked at the Sea of Ruins with burning eyes. The nine Holy Roads all led directly to the Holy Zhi Palace. If they could make it, they would appear at the foot of the Barren State's holy land.
At that time, it would not be just them. The geniuses of the nine Holy Roads, the most outstanding youths of the entire Barren State, would gather at the foot of the Holy Zhi Palace. Just imagining such a scene made one's heart beat faster.
They all hoped to be one of them, to appear on the most dazzling stage.
"There are no rules on the Holy Road, but it is precisely because there are no rules that the rules are the cruelest," someone sighed. It was common knowledge that the Holy Road had always been the cruelest path of trials with the highest mortality rate. Countless geniuses had died on the Holy Road.
There were no seniors on the Holy Road, so there were no restrictions. All sorts of demons and monsters appeared. One would never know what they would face in the next moment.
Roar.
A dragon's roar came from above, and then a Yinglong descended from the sky, its might shocking the heavens.
"The cultivators of the Nantian House have arrived."
Countless people stared at Yinglong, who was in the sky. The Nantian House was one of the top forces in the Zhongzhou City region. Their might was boundless, and no one knew how terrifying they were. At that moment, many people flew up into the sky and bowed to the dragon. They were all juniors of the Nantian House.
Ye Futian glanced at the Yinglong in the sky. It was the Yinglong that had once been to the Eastern Barren Territory. He also saw the carriage behind the Yinglong, and a group of people walked out. One of them was a familiar face — Nan Feng. Nan Feng had been in the Upper Arcana Plane back then. Now that two years had passed, he must have entered the Noble Plane.
He thought of what Nan Feng and Nan Yu had said to him. He had been in the Eastern Barren Territory and could not imagine what kind of force the Nantian House was.
Now that he had come to the Barren State, he knew what kind of force the Nantian House was.
In the sky far away, a group of cultivators whizzed over. Their light was dazzling, and they flew directly above the crowd, ignoring everything. Everyone knew that those who dared to do this were all from the top forces. They were unscrupulous, or it would be easy to offend people. However, those like the Nantian House were not afraid of offending people at all. They had the right to do so.
"The Xia Clan is here." Many more people rose into the sky and went to greet them. The Xia Clan was the most powerful clan in the Palace Ruins. They were extremely powerful, and the Great Ancestor of the Xia Clan was unfathomable.
Moreover, a talented junior had appeared in the Xia Clan now. His name was Xia Hou, and he was now a Grade Seven Noble. It was very likely that he would be one of the most dazzling figures in the Dawn Road.
After a while, Lingtian Sword Will descended from the sky far away. A group of people descended on their swords, shining brilliantly. Many people exclaimed. The Sword Saint Villa had arrived.
Countless years ago, a Sword Saint had appeared in the Sword Saint Villa. Although the villa had gone through many periods of decline, in this generation, the Sword Saint Villa had produced another extremely terrifying old man, a super cultivator on the Barren Sky Ranking.
There were also many outstanding figures in the younger generation, especially Yan Jiu.
The reason why he was named Yan Jiu was because he was ranked ninth among his peers.
However, no one dared to look down on this name. Yan Jiu was known as the successor of the Sword Saint and would be in charge of the Sword Saint Villa in the future.
Then, the Mortal World warship descended in the sky. Descendants of the top cultivators from top forces arrived one after another. There were still three days before the Dawn Road opened, but most people had already arrived three days ago.
Countless people discussed among themselves. There were too many cultivators, including those who were extremely famous. Many people were originally ambitious, but after seeing these people, they felt that their momentum had weakened.
Ye Futian was with the people from Mount Jiuxian. In the crowd, they did not stand out at all.
Although they were descendants of sages, there were many people with similar backgrounds in the endless Barren State. Among the people who had arrived, there were too many who might be more talented than them.
Some people sighed. It was a worthwhile trip just to broaden their horizons.
The people from the Top Three Schools and various clans of the Divine Sky City had also arrived. They were also drowned in the vast crowd and did not stand out.
At this moment, Long Mu looked at the magnificent scene in the sky and was filled with emotions. He felt that he had been a frog at the bottom of a well. Of course, his belief became firmer. Back then, his father's name had shaken the Barren State and entered the Barren Sky Ranking. He was so young back then and did not witness it personally. He wanted to do what his father had done. Of course, he also knew that it would be very difficult.
This time, Long Mu came with the people from the Starry School. The people from the Dragon Clan and Gu Clan were all here. Gu Yunxi was also here. She had heard from her father that Ye Futian did not die. It was very likely that Chief Chen had arranged for him to come to the Holy Road. Thus, she wanted to see for herself if the exceptional youth was still alive.
The people from the Jin Clan had also arrived. There were also people from the Blazing Sun School and Bright Moon School. The group had an extraordinary aura.
Among the vast crowd, there was an extremely beautiful girl on the shore. She looked at the sea in front of her. This girl had an extraordinary temperament. She was the genius of the Zhaixing House, Mu Zhiqiu. She could have entered the Holy Zhi Palace with her brother's recommendation, but she did not. She wanted to challenge the Holy Road herself. It had been a long time since she had lost to Ye Futian. She had officially entered the Noble Plane not long ago.
…
There were nine Holy Roads. In the northern direction of the Zhongzhou City, there was a Holy Road called the Nether Road. This Holy Road was also filled with strong cultivators. It was even more powerful than the Dawn Road.
In front of this Holy Road, there were people from the Zhuge Clan, Taixuan Mountain, Demon God Clan, and so on. It was known as one of the three strongest Holy Roads out of the nine.
At this moment, on a mountain peak in front of the Holy Road, a group of people stood there quietly. Among them, there were two beautiful girls. One of them was especially beautiful.
Countless gazes stared at the woman. Just by looking at her appearance, faint admiration was born in their hearts. If they could marry her, how fortunate would that be? However, all of them knew that this woman would definitely not belong to them. Only the monstrous geniuses of the most powerful clans would have the qualifications to lay their hands on her.
Her name was Hua Jieyu. It was said that she was Zhuge Mingyue's sister. Now, she was cultivating in the Zhuge Clan. She was also a Divine Spiritual Sorcerer and had come to challenge the Holy Road!
