Su Changqing said helplessly, "It seems that unless the Great Emperor appears, no one can enter." "No, even if the Great Emperor appears, it cannot be entered!" Wu Jiuling firmly stated, looking at Su Changqing, "In this world, if anyone can open that place, it has to be you!" "Me?" Su Changqing was taken aback. "That’s right." Wu Jiuling looked into the distance and said, "That is a world opened by the Martial Ancestor." "Only beings who can condense the Heaven and Earth Divine Body with the accompanying Heaven-Opening Axe can split open the door to that world." "Although I’ve seen your Dao weapon, and you have condensed your own accompanying Heaven-Opening Axe, it’s ultimately not complete." "I tried previously; although I could split a part, it was still far from enough." "I suspect that to open the door to that world, a complete Heaven-Opening Axe is required!" Standing nearby, Su Nan didn’t react much to these words, but Su Changqing’s eyes suddenly brightened. "It must be! The new world that the Martial Ancestor spoke of must be the place my teacher mentioned!" Su Changqing was overjoyed in his heart. He had been troubled about where to find the place mentioned by the Martial Ancestor. Little did he expect that this place was far in the horizon yet right in front of him! ’Split open the new world, myriad laws arise naturally’ were the words left to him by the Martial Ancestor. And the place Wu Jiuling spoke of was a refuge world that the Martial Ancestor had opened for all beings. Everything matched up! His path must lie within that new world! "Teacher, could you take me there?" Without any hesitation, Su Changqing immediately asked. Now that the Emperor’s path was about to open, his cultivation was stuck at the Divine Skill Realm and couldn’t break through to the Divine Law. Google seaʀᴄh 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 With countless geniuses among the Ten Thousand Races, his current strength was far from being able to dominate everything. He must become stronger as quickly as possible! Wu Jiuling noticed Su Changqing’s urgency and, without a word, led Su Changqing straight toward the distant horizon. Seeing this, Su Nan greeted the people of both the Su and Wu families and also went along. He needed to ensure Su Changqing’s safety before he could leave the continent with peace of mind and head to the outside domain. As the group departed, the Western Region once again became peaceful. Meanwhile, the Cangyan Continent was thrown into a tumultuous uproar due to two events. The first event was the instant collapse of the Buddhist order in the Western Region! As a terrifying force of domain master level, its eradication in a single day down to the roots left the major forces of the continent in panic. Especially after learning that it was the Su family of the Southern Region who had done it, the panic grew even more intense. After all, no one knew whether the Su family targeted the Buddhist order because of the ambush on Su Changqing that day. If it was because of that, then apart from a few forces like Taoism and the Celestial Pill Pavilion, most others were involved. If the Su family decided to settle accounts over this, none of them would escape. As time passed, the continent was in turmoil, with all forces behaving very cautiously, fearing the Su family’s attention. There was no way around it; first, Ximen Xiu was slain by Su Nan, and then the Buddhist order was dismantled in a day. The terrifying power of the Su family in the Southern Region left the entire continent somewhat on edge. And that achieved Su Nan’s goal. Though such a calm might not last long, at least in the short term, no one would dare provoke the Su family. The second event that shook the continent was the opening of the Emperor’s path! After nearly three months of condensation, the entrance to the Emperor’s path leading to the external domain in the sky had become very solid. This should have been a cause for celebration. But when the Emperor’s path manifested, and the scene of several thousand terrifying geniuses from the Ten Thousand Races surrounding it came to light, the continent fell silent. "How are we supposed to fight? Judging by their aura, even the weakest are peak Divine Skill Realm experts!" "What about our continent’s geniuses! There are only about a thousand of us; if we charge together, can’t we break through?" "What are you joking about? Those Divine Skill cultivators from the Ten Thousand Races are terrifying geniuses who can rip apart kings barehanded. Who dares to take the lead?" "Exactly, and those geniuses of the Ten Thousand Races have pre-emptively set up arrays outside the Emperor’s path, so even if we charge, it might not end well..." On the continent, beings discussed passionately, feeling both angry and helpless over the encirclement by the Ten Thousand Races. The Tianjiao of the Ten Thousand Races were certainly not weak; they had also seized the geographical advantage by setting up arrays outside the Emperor’s path beforehand. To break through with sheer force, the number of lives lost on the continent would be unimaginable. At this moment, a significant number of the continent’s prodigies had already gathered outside the Emperor’s path in the sky. Figures like King Xiaopeng, Gu Jian Li Bufan, Emperor Body Chu Xi, Phoenix Miao Feng, and Tianwu Li Batian, along with prodigies from various great forces and hidden families, were present. These individuals had formidable auras; even when compared with those beings from the Ten Thousand Races, they were not inferior in the slightest. Even the opening of the emperor’s path caused some unfamiliar, yet terrifyingly powerful prodigies to emerge, calmly gazing into the distance. At this moment, the emperor’s path solidified completely, shaking the heavens and earth with a mighty rumble! Those chosen ones of the Ten Thousand Races stood like deities and demons beyond the realm, observing the living creatures of the continent. Neither side spoke, and a tense, oppressive atmosphere spread throughout. Soon after, a burly creature with double horns on its head stepped forward with surging and boiling vitality. With a condescending gaze, he started speaking nonchalantly, "Do not say the Ten Thousand Races leave no path for your humans to live. Those who can pass three trials may enter the emperor’s path on their own." "We disdain overwhelming with numbers; only those whose strength and talents are great enough can earn our acknowledgement." The resounding voice fell, leaving a long silence in the crowd. Until a voice rose from among the people, "Then... what if one cannot pass?" The three trial tests of the Ten Thousand Races were evidently extraordinary, and those who could pass were certainly very few. The prodigies who came here were not all of them like the frighteningly talented Little Peng King or Chu Xi. "If you cannot pass..." The creature with double horns raised the corner of its mouth slightly, "Then the emperor’s path is not for you, and it’s better to remain on the continent." "The resources beyond the realm belong to the strong, not the worthless!" These arrogant words fell, causing the living creatures on the continent to roar in anger. Only allowing the most exceptional prodigies to enter? It must be noted, some Great Emperors initially had nothing special, and only started to rise after entering the realm beyond. This strategy of the Ten Thousand Races seems not to have completely blocked the continent’s path, but it stops nearly ninety percent of people! These people are the future pillars of the human race! To block so many people from the emperor’s path, who knows how many opportunities will be missed? And this, too, is the intent of the Ten Thousand Races. The truly extraordinary prodigies they cannot stop, just like the elves who recently disrupted their plans. What they aim to do is to block most of the human race to prevent them from seizing too many resources. After all, in this era, the main characters are not only the human race, but also all Ten Thousand Races and demonic forces who dance together, each with a chance to prove the way! Given this, they naturally seek to vigorously weaken the power of the human race. For compared to their families being broken and lives lost, the number of humans... is too large. "The rules are already set." The strong individual from the Ten Thousand Races looked at the creatures of the continent with an indifferent smile, "Those dissatisfied can try to force their way through!" As these words fell, the atmosphere in the crowd became suddenly tense. The opening of the emperor’s path attracted the gaze of all the continent’s prodigies. Yet despite this, Su Changqing paid it no mind, fully focused on the imminent entrance to the new world. He would go beyond the realm, but not now. "Teacher, in this new world, are there any living beings?" As they were about to reach their destination, Su Changqing asked nervously. His path is founded on living creatures, and a mere world alone would not offer him much aid. Wu Jiuling replied uncertainly, "It is said that when the demon forces were powerful, the continent was on the brink of being conquered." "The Martial Ancestor used his unparalleled power to create a new world and guided many endangered creatures from the continent and beyond into it." "Logically speaking, the new world should be filled with countless races and myriad vital beings." "Even races that have gone extinct on the continent and beyond may exist in the new world." Upon hearing this, Su Nan was shocked, "Does that mean dragons, phoenixes, and qilins, such creatures would also exist?" Wu Jiuling said helplessly, "It’s just a legend; I’m not certain. We have to open that world to truly know what lies within." Hearing this, Su Changqing was filled with uncontrollable excitement. If it’s truly as Wu Jiuling speculated, then his ’dao’ will progress by leaps and bounds! Just then, the three of them arrived at the entrance of a broken hidden realm. After moving forward a little more, an enormous, towering, and boundless barrier appeared before them. The grandeur and weight of this barrier left Su Nan and Su Changqing visibly shocked. Standing beneath it, they felt as insignificant as ants. Moreover, the heavy aura emanating from this barrier even made Su Nan feel a sense of helplessness. Only now did they understand why Wu Jiuling said not even a Great Emperor could break this barrier. The sturdiness of this thing... even a Great Emperor would be at a loss. "Chang Qing, give it a try." At this moment, Wu Jiuling’s expectant gaze fell upon Su Changqing, "See if your Heaven-Opening Axe can break open the doorway to this world!"
