Chapter 303: Chapter 270: The Final Destination of King’s Ancient Road

The desolate ancient hall spanned across the endless void; this was an extremely ancient temple, adorned with old patterns and carvings, all worn and aged. A forlorn aura hit them, as if they had gone back to prehistoric times.

There was no doubt that this ancient temple was a product of prehistoric times.

Several Supreme Divines were waiting here early this morning. They could not possibly be in their true forms, as this was the time to stand guard over the Tiandu Continent, preventing sudden invasions by alien races—a mere strand of their manifested virtual selves was present.

Upon seeing the Old Mansion Master lead Ye Chen and other outstanding members of the younger generation arrive, they nodded to each other and then said, "The time is about right, let’s open the King’s Ancient Road."

"Alright, open it!"

Several Supreme Divines injected a stream of Divine Power, reviving the desolate ancient hall completely, blossoming with the ancient Dao Rhythm. The ancient patterns engraved on the two doors shone brilliantly, as if they had come to life.

This Qi Mechanism was ancient, yet grand and vast as well, allowing one to sense a unique Dao Rhythm flowing here.

Boom—

After a loud noise, the two stone gates of the ancient hall were completely opened, leading to the mysterious and ancient King’s Ancient Road.

"Go in, time is short," said Hongtian Great Saint.

Without hesitation, everyone nodded and streamed in, truly stepping onto the King’s Ancient Road.

The King’s Ancient Road, a path from legend, led to the mystical throne of kings.

It already existed in this era, and even more astoundingly, this mysterious King’s Ancient Road hailed from a prehistoric age even older than these times, utterly mystifying, only later to be unexpectedly discovered.

Legend has it that anyone who completes the various trials of the King’s Ancient Road will become an invincible king; this is the origin of the King’s Ancient Road’s name.

There are far too many secrets about this King’s Ancient Road, and to this day, no one has been able to fully explore it due to its age-restrictive nature, allowing only the younger generation to enter.

Various trials on the Tiandu Continent that are intended for the young remind Ye Chen of many things; all seem to point towards the existence of a Heaven and Earth Creation-era Ancient Ancestor—the Jiuyue Great Power!

He was wondering if the Jiuyue Great Power, who was said to have transcended after suppressing the Great Demon of the alien races, had indeed wanted to choose a successor on the Tiandu Continent and hence arranged these trials.

Six years ago, Ye Chen had already set foot on this ancient path. It can be said that the Ancient Road contains its own realm—not comparable to the Tiandu Continent, but certainly not inferior to the Trial Road. It is the only way, spanning the entire realm and guiding everyone to the final destination.

Inside, there were forests, deserts, marshes, oceans, and many fearsome creatures lived there. But according to Ye Chen, who had never made it halfway, the most dangerous encounter was with some Innate Realm monsters, which naturally were terrifying to him at the time because he had not awakened and was merely at the Innate Realm.

Stepping in again, many of the fatally dangerous situations from before were no longer a threat.

When the King’s Ancient Road was first discovered, the dangers that existed on it were even more numerous than imagined, but over time, batch after batch of young powerhouses entered, continuing to train and clear out the dangers on the Ancient Road, leading to today’s relative safety, yet also to an increased desolation.

This entry could almost be said to be the last one, as the previous retreat was due to a real danger, with terrible creatures present and unbeatable at the time. If not for the protection of the Jade Talisman created by several super forces, there could have been heavy losses.

Some had reached the end, including Huang Tianqin. Ye Chen directly inquired about certain matters, learning the truth.

Immediately, Ye Chen had a rough understanding in his mind and, taking the lead, he led everyone straight towards the end of the Ancient Road.

Now, the obstacles on the King’s Ancient Road had been mostly eliminated, and though there were any left they wouldn’t be too powerful; only at the end would they face the greatest fear. However, with Ye Chen’s current strength, it was safe to say that he could effortlessly push through everything.

The King’s Ancient Road was very long, not much shorter than the Trial Road, passing through ancient city ruins and countless treacherous terrains like endless forests, marshes, and deserts. One could even see gigantic skeletons on various ancient grounds, some as large as mountains, extending for miles or even tens of miles, terrifyingly vast.

But these creatures were not slain by the young elites who entered the King’s Ancient Road; such creatures were too powerful, their lingering aura even in death indicating the existence of the Divine Spirit Realm, dissipated over the River of Time.

Time is always the most terrifying force in the world, even the most magnificent beings like the Human Emperor cannot attain Eternal Immortality without taking the final step, surpassing oneself, and thus are bound to fade away.

The young powerhouses rushed past, crossing vast treacherous regions. Ye Chen was at the forefront, his eyebrows emitting a majestic Dao Light Radiance, scouting ahead and neutralizing dangers.

This journey could be described as full of surprises but no dangers, as Ye Chen’s presence provided a sense of security, and everyone felt reassured in the face of everything.

Three days later, they finally traversed a vast distance of over a hundred thousand miles, passing boundless mountains and oceans, and eventually landed on the final part of the King’s Ancient Road, the place where the last group of elite young powerhouses had been stopped—a raging river.
