Chapter 596: Chapter 543: Re-entering King’s Ancient Road, Update 66

On the Heavenly Gate’s Divine Ship, the members of the Heavenly Slaying Alliance had their injuries completely healed under Ye Chen’s Healing Pills and were able to get themselves together. No longer bedraggled, they now regained their former, spirited appearance.

However, looking towards Wang Chen, the members of the alliance, led by the Five Great Saints, were filled with awe.

A supreme Heavenly King had actually stepped forward to protect them. What martial prowess he had! Even the major forces of all of Ten Thousand Domains bowed their heads, not daring to defy him.

Yet, they could not help but marvel at Ye Chen, who a mere dozen years ago had been nothing but a young Demigod.

Decades had passed, and the youth of yesteryear had now grown to such a degree that he could reign supreme over all, slaughtering Saints beneath the stars. Indeed, it was lamentable how merciless the passage of time was.

But it was also a delightful surprise, as the seed entrusted to them in the past had finally grown, representing the new hope for the future of the Tiandu Continent.

They were moved to tears.

Since the battle of Heaven Punishment had begun, they had been reduced to scurrying about like rats in the streets, relentlessly hunted by the major forces of Ten Thousand Domains. Even in hiding they were exceedingly cautious, constantly changing locations day by day, so as not to be discovered by the powerful of Ten Thousand Domains.

During that time, they had experienced numerous battles, with the warriors of the Heavenly Slaying Alliance steadily diminishing and suffering the death of Saints. The casualties were immense.

Now, the number of the Heavenly Slaying Alliance’s strong had dwindled to less than half of what it used to be. Many had passed on forever.

Had it not been for Ye Chen leading the Saints of Heavenly Gate today, they would probably have had to flee forever.

"It’s a pity that we’re missing Hongtian Great Saint..."

Ye Chen sighed softly. Even if no one else had news of Hongtian Great Saint, the chances were grim.

After temporarily settling the members of the Heavenly Slaying Alliance at another stronghold of Heavenly Gate on the Tiandu Continent, Ye Chen departed. He believed that with the deterrence of Wang Chen, a Heavenly King, there would be few who dared to defy and make a move against the Heavenly Slaying Alliance’s members, unless they were seeking death.

Also, by now, Ye Chen’s might had thoroughly shaken the world. Even upon entering this Ancient Realm, the strong of all Ten Thousand Domains had heard of him.

As for this Great Killing Star, not many in the world today dared to provoke him.

After dealing with the matters of the Heavenly Slaying Alliance, Ye Chen tore through the void with his palm, staring deeply into the endless Space of Plane, gazing at the mysterious King’s Ancient Road.

Others might not know the location of the King’s Ancient Road, and even the Heavenly Kings had tried to find it over the years with no trace to be found.

The King’s Ancient Palace that led to King’s Ancient Road had long been destroyed by Hongtian Great Saint with additional wipes of the spatial traces by Elder Yan. Unless an Ancient Great Power took action, it was probably impossible for anyone to find it.

Just because others were unaware, that didn’t mean Ye Chen was in the dark; his True King Divine Crown had been obtained from the King’s Ancient Road. He could sense the existence of the King’s Ancient Road and had the method to unseal it, which was left to him by Elder Yan from the past.

Now that he had the time, he needed to unseal the King’s Ancient Road and bring out everyone from within it for a family reunion.

Parents, it had been so long since he had seen them, and he missed them greatly.

He remembered the days of his childhood when everyone had abandoned him, except for his parents who had always been by his side, protecting him. Although he had lived two lives, that parental love was rare.

Thirteenth Prince, Vivian, Princess Hongs Rong, and many other friends felt the same.

Soon after, Ye Chen entered the Space of Plane, where he could vaguely see a myriad of powerful warships continuously shuttling through boundless void, and many powerful figures appearing, belonging to various major forces.

Over a dozen years had passed, and he had not given up on searching for traces of the King’s Ancient Road.

Swoosh—

He continuously shuttled through the endless void, and after about half a day, he finally stopped, sensing the presence of the King’s Ancient Road.

During the past battle of Heaven Punishment, Hongtian Great Saint personally destroyed the King’s Ancient Palace that transmitted to the King’s Ancient Road, but this spatial node still existed. Once found, it was enough to enter upon the Ancient Road.

He activated his Divine Skills and performed the secret technique left by Elder Yan, smacking down with a slap into the void. Suddenly, a large crack appeared with misty Spiritual Energy overflowing from within—it was the true King’s Ancient Road Heaven and Earth.

With a swish, Ye Chen plunged into the midst of the King’s Ancient Road.

The King’s Ancient Road, referred to as an ancient road, was actually more like a vast Inner Heaven and Earth. It was a realm personally established by Jiuyue Great Power, explicitly for nurturing the young generation, to inherit their Dao and legacy.

It had been discovered long ago in ancient times, and generation after generation sent their young Heavenly Prides into it for trials, continuously resolving the crises of the Ancient Road. Eventually, the entire road became much safer, turning into the beacon of hope for the future of Tiandu Continent.

At the end of the Ancient Road lay the passage to leave and head towards the Heavenly Kings.

Entering the King’s Ancient Road once again, Ye Chen felt somewhat nostalgic; a lot had happened here in the past.

He had been crippled by Huangs Tianqin, descending from a prodigy to a wastrel, and had reached the final point of the King’s Ancient Road, entering upon the ancient gate and engaging in fierce battles with the kings of the Void Sky Domain.

Moreover, during the Heaven Punishment battle, he joined forces with Xia Shuangwang and fought his way into the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms...

This ancient road held far too many memories.

After a brief moment of nostalgic sighing, Ye Chen’s brow shimmered, and then a colossal and formless Divine Sense spread out, enveloping everything.

With his current cultivation, the power of his Primordial Spirit was many times stronger than before, and the Ancient Road was not as vast as the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms. It expanded with ease, covering the entire Ancient Road Heaven and Earth, with incredible might.

Beneath his powerful Divine Sense, he quickly discovered a number of formidable presences within this realm.

There were quite a few individuals, and more than half were of the Demigod Realm. Astonishingly, several of them had even reached the Demigod Fifth Layer Heaven, and one had become a Super Demigod, truly extraordinary.

After perceiving these people with his Divine Sense, Ye Chen smiled, for these individuals were precisely the selected seeds from Tiandu Continent, the hope for the future, and now they had mostly grown up.

Although they could not compare with the Heavenly Prides of the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, reaching this stage within this Ancient Road Heaven and Earth was already commendable.

Under his Divine Sense, he promptly sensed a primitive little town where almost everyone resided, even with children playing about.

This caused him to smile faintly; clearly, over the years, some among them had fallen in love with each other and started families.

Suddenly, his smile broadened, for he sensed a familiar person—

The Thirteenth Prince!

Swoosh—

His figure vanished.
