The emperor's family raised me in poverty? But I have an innate ability.

Chapter 318: The Meaning of the Imperial Road! New World! Exile!

Looking at the little boy in front of him, Su Changqing's heart was shocked.

But in the blink of an eye, the person is still the same person, but the temperament is completely different.

He was obviously just a child of five or six years old, but Su Changqing felt as if he was facing an almighty emperor!

The faint aura that escaped from it made his heart tremble, and he couldn't help but bow down in worship.

"Are you the Sword Emperor?" Su Changqing asked in shock.

He didn't expect that after endless years, the Sword Emperor still existed.

"It's just a fragment of divine thought."

The Sword Emperor shook his head, looked at Xianxian and Juexian outside the coffin, and sighed:
"If it weren't for the help of those two sword immortals, my divine consciousness wouldn't be able to survive until now."

Su Changqing was speechless, and his evaluation of Xianxian soared again.

"Senior said you were waiting for me?"

After a brief moment of distraction, Su Changqing asked curiously, "But what do you want me to do?"

If it was just for a successor, the Sword Emperor wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

Obviously, the Sword Emperor was waiting for him here and had other things to tell him.

"Not really."

The Sword Emperor laughed in silence, looked Su Changqing up and down, and said:

"I just want to see what the person that Martial Ancestor has high hopes for is capable of."

Su Changqing's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this, "Senior, you knew many years ago that your successor would have the Martial Ancestor's inheritance?"

The Sword Emperor was an ancient emperor, and the Martial Ancestor was a creature from ancient times.

There should be no connection between the two.

Furthermore, the Sword Emperor has been dead for many years, so how could he know that the person who came today would be related to the Martial Ancestor?
"Could it be that the person behind me is Wu Zu?"

Su Changqing frowned, feeling something was not right.

"Don't be nervous, I know you exist, it's just a coincidence."

The Sword Emperor sat casually aside, chuckled and asked, "Do you know how the Emperor Road was formed?"

Hearing this irrelevant answer, Su Changqing did not get anxious, but listened quietly.

"The Imperial Road is a blockade of the Heavenly Dao."

The Sword Emperor looked toward the sky and spoke softly:

"Myriad worlds outside the domain were destroyed and eroded by darkness, leaving only the Cang Yan Continent."

"That year, three thousand demon gods descended and besieged the Cang Yan Continent."

"It was only because of a supreme being who sacrificed his life that the evil demons' invasion of Cang Yan was delayed."

"And the way of heaven."

The Sword Emperor pointed to the sky and chuckled, "I didn't miss this good opportunity."

"He used the three thousand laws to form shackles, and with the help of that supreme being, he sealed the invading demon god."

"And the core of the Heavenly Dao is therefore surrounded by the sealed demon gods."

"The end of the road to becoming an emperor is the core of the way of heaven. Only those who reach the end can bear the destiny and become the emperor."

Listening to the secrets of the world, Su Changqing seemed to be back in the ancient battlefield in an instant.

It turns out that in ancient times, there was no Imperial Road.

At that time, as long as the living beings reached a certain level, they could break through to become emperors, and there was no need to fight at all.

But because of the emergence of evil demons, the worlds of all races were destroyed one by one, the world sank into darkness, and the war began.

However, even the Heavenly Dao is no match for the horror of the evil spirit.

As a last resort, with the help of that supreme being, Heaven used the laws as shackles to seal the endless demons.

And this also led to the formation of the imperial road.

The Heavenly Dao during its heyday can support the birth of many great emperors in one era.

But sealing the demon consumed too much of the power of Heaven.

So much so that later on, every 20,000 years, the Heavenly Dao could accumulate enough strength to support the emergence of a great emperor.

"What does this have to do with Martial Ancestor?" Su Changqing asked puzzledly.

"Do you know why there has never been a corpse of any great emperor in the long history of the continent?"

"Even the divine thoughts left behind by people like me are very few?"

The Sword Emperor did not answer, but gave a question that was not asked.

Su Changqing shook his head and looked at the Sword Emperor curiously.

This is indeed a mysterious secret of the mainland, and not a single word of it has been left in any tradition.

"That's because the Imperial Road needs someone to protect it."

The Sword Emperor sighed and said, "Although the Heavenly Dao has sealed those demon gods, the seal is not stable."

"Therefore, the way of heaven has to rely on external forces."

“And this external force is the people who have successfully achieved the Dao and are the emperors who have condensed their own laws!”

He looked towards the outside world and spoke slowly.
"The great emperor who controls the laws used corpses, divine thoughts, and even imperial weapons to firmly seal those gaps."

"So many years have passed, the seal of heaven, the death of the great emperor, and those evil demons and myriad races."

"Many terrifying forces combined to form an imperial road that leads directly to the core of the Heavenly Dao."

"And there is only one way to reach the end of the Imperial Road."

After a pause, the Sword Emperor looked at Su Changqing and said word by word:
"That is, tear open those seals!"

Su Changqing was horrified when he heard this, "If this is the case, won't that release those sealed demons?"

"of course."

The Sword Emperor smiled and said, "No matter which emperor it is, why did the first thing he did on the day of his enlightenment was to suppress the Dark Forbidden Zone?"

"Because the seal was broken, although the Heavenly Dao recovered its power, it also allowed many evil demons to escape."

"If it is not suppressed, the restricted area will now be ruled by not only a quasi-emperor, but a real demon god!"

Su Changqing remained silent for a long time, his heart agitated.

It turns out that when the great emperor was born on the continent, it was also the day of the evil demons’ carnival.

In other words, the moment Emperor Lu appeared, the evil spirits experienced a revival.

As you go deeper into the Imperial Road, the seal will be broken and more and more demons will escape.

Looking at the silent Su Changqing, the Sword Emperor spoke again.
"Back then, I overwhelmed the geniuses of my generation, tore through the seal, and reached the core of the Heavenly Dao."

"There are many terrifying creatures sealed there that would terrify me even after I become the Great Emperor."

“Above those creatures, there is a tall divine mind sitting cross-legged, suppressing the ages.”

Su Changqing's heart moved, and he asked, "Is it the Martial Ancestor's divine thought?"

"Yes."

The Sword Emperor sighed, “In the core of Heavenly Dao, there are great terrors everywhere, but they were suppressed by the Martial Ancestor alone.”

"Martial Ancestor is so powerful that he almost surpasses the level of 'Emperor'. He is daunting in the face of it."

"However, just when I received the destiny and was about to leave, the Martial Ancestor actually sent me a divine thought."

Su Changqing was surprised to hear this and asked, "Martial Ancestor is still alive?"

"I do not know."

The Sword Emperor smiled bitterly and said, "That level of realm is no longer something I can see through."

"Martial Ancestor only left one sentence."

"'When your imperial tomb is opened, tell Him that a new world will be created and all things will naturally come into being!'"

Su Changqing's heart was shocked when he heard this.

All things!

This is his 'Tao'!
He is now in the realm of divine law. If he wants to break through his current realm, he can only break through by fully understanding the three thousand laws of "Heavenly Dao".

This step is very difficult. Only by preaching to all living beings and borrowing their strength can one achieve great success.

But he had only just realized the truth about himself.

It was only after the Jade Disc of Creation had conceived the new method that he had this idea.

However, this thought had already been pointed out by the Martial Ancestor who had been dead for who knows how many years!

An indescribable sense of horror and the fear of being dominated surged into Su Changqing's heart.

"He saw my future?"

Su Changqing looked up at the sky, his eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.

Open up a new world and everything will come into being naturally.

What is this new world? Is it the world that has been opened up inside his body?

Why did the Martial Ancestor predict countless years ago that he would arrive here today and practice the Ten Thousand Methods?
This is definitely no coincidence!
But the Martial Ancestor had known about Su Changqing's existence countless years ago!

The Sword Emperor standing aside quietly watched Su Changqing's changing expression and sighed in his heart.

He was just a messenger, but he also saw clearly Su Changqing's current situation.

Are they chess pieces dropped by those terrifying beings from ancient times?
Or can a powerful being go against the flow of time and be reborn?

The Sword Emperor couldn't guess, nor did he dare to guess.

Although he is a great emperor, in the eyes of supreme beings like Martial Ancestor, he is not even a chess piece.

"New World"

Su Changqing murmured in his heart, and the confusion in his eyes gradually turned into determination.

The road to becoming an emperor has been opened. Whether it is the thoughts of the Martial Ancestor or the gods and demons in the sky, there will be a day when they will meet.

Whether it's the chess piece or the chess player, he will figure it all out.

"Senior, I wonder how long the Emperor Road will be open?"

Su Changqing calmed down and asked for advice.

The path of all things requires time.

There are countless evil demons outside the domain, various races coexist, and the forces are complicated. It is obviously not a good place to preach.

He needs to accumulate enough strength in the Cang Yan Continent before he can set foot outside the domain.

especially.
We must find the new world that Wu Zu talked about!
"No one will ever reach the end of the Imperial Road. It will always be open."

The Sword Emperor explained: "The shackles and seals formed by the laws of heaven are divided into nine levels."

"Once all nine barriers are broken, you will enter the core of the Heavenly Dao."

"But similarly, each of the nine levels on the imperial road is more terrifying than the last."

Speaking of this, the Sword Emperor's eyes revealed a solemn expression.
"The deeper you go into the core of the Heavenly Dao, the more terrifying the sealed demon will be."

"As the shackles continue to open, there will be demon-level evil demons that break through the seal!"

Su Changqing was surprised to hear this and said, "A powerful person at the level of the Great Emperor?"

"How can we resist this with just a few young geniuses?"

The Sword Emperor shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the blockade of the Heavenly Dao is a blockade outside the entire region."

"Even if the blockade of the 'inside' opens up a path, the suppression of the Heavenly Dao remains."

“Even if those demon gods break through the seal, as long as they don’t escape into nothingness, they will be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao.”

"The nine gates of the Emperor Road will suppress the cultivation of the demon god guarding the gate and will not allow him to break through to the Great Emperor realm."

Su Changqing heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

There are nine levels on the road to the emperor. The demon god becomes more powerful as you advance.

This also shows that the demon god guarding the first level is the weakest and will probably suppress those at the king level.

The second level is the Saint, then the Saint King, the Great Saint, the Great Saint Peak, the Quasi-Emperor, and so on.

"Don't take it lightly."

Seeing that Su Changqing's expression had recovered, the Sword Emperor warned:
“Even if the demon god is suppressed to the point where he only has divine magic, he is still a demon god!”

"As great emperor-level warriors, their combat power, experience, secret techniques, and magical powers are far superior to you geniuses."

"Do you know how many people of our generation died before we cleared the first level?"

Su Changqing looked up curiously.

“Three thousand people!”

The Sword Emperor's eyes flashed with memories, and he sighed:

"Three thousand geniuses, among them there are many who are more talented than me."

“But in the end, I couldn’t even survive two moves in the hands of the gatekeeper demon.”

Su Changqing felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when he heard this.

Three thousand geniuses!

There was a creature with stronger aptitude than the Sword Emperor, but he was defeated in just two moves?
"Don't underestimate those evil demons. They are terrifying beings that have survived for countless years."

Seeing the solemn expression on Su Changqing's face, the Sword Emperor smiled and said:
"Don't be so pessimistic. The imperial road is very large. It also contains the divine thoughts of our human race's great emperor, as well as many powerful secret magical powers buried there."

"That place will make people quickly stronger and their combat power will soar."

"At the same time, every time a gatekeeper demon god is defeated, the Heavenly Dao will take the opportunity to extract the laws in that demon god's body and feed back to the heavenly geniuses."

“Those fragments of laws are not the illusory laws I left behind, but real ones.”

"That thing will quickly increase one's realm and combat power."

Su Changqing listened with fascination, and fighting spirit surged in his eyes.

In today's Cang Yan Continent, he has almost no rivals among his peers.

But the imperial road, which is dangerous but full of opportunities, is full of challenges.

"Soon, I'll be there soon."

Su Changqing murmured in his heart, suppressing his restless mood.

"Now that the decisive battle is here, I don't know if there will be any new changes in the Imperial Road. Please proceed with caution."

After saying this, the Sword Emperor waved his sleeves, took out the Sword of Law, and chuckled:

"Now, it's time to forge your imperial weapon."

Su Changqing's heart moved when he heard this, and he looked at the Sword Emperor in front of him and asked hesitantly:

"Senior, I have a favor to ask of you."

Before he could finish his words, the Sword Emperor interrupted with a chuckle, "Are you talking about the monster in the Emperor's Mausoleum?"

Su Changqing nodded helplessly and said, "This creature is immortal and indestructible, nothing can hurt it."

"I really can't figure out how to deal with him."

The Sword Emperor looked towards the Emperor's Mausoleum in the distance, where Tian Huang was moving forward despite the pressure from the entire world, and shook his head.
"I cannot kill this creature either. It seems that he has broken through the shackles of his genes. His potential and immortality are very strong."

As he spoke, he pondered for a moment, then waved his sleeves and took Su Changqing out of the coffin and arrived above the imperial tomb.

"I've met two seniors."

The first moment he came into the world, the Sword Emperor looked towards Xianxian and Juexian and bowed respectfully.

"Leave us alone and go do your thing."

Xianxian chuckled and waved his hand, then he and Juexian stood quietly aside.

The Sword Emperor nodded and looked at Tianhuang who was approaching quickly from the distance.

"Hahaha, Su Changqing, where are you going to escape to!"

"Do you think that the remnant of a great emperor can kill me?"

Tianhuang laughed ferociously, his long scarlet hair dancing wildly in the wind.

At this moment, everyone in the Imperial Mausoleum was shocked when they heard this and looked up in the direction of the Sword Emperor.

What a pity for the emperor!
This is a legendary creature, and they actually saw it alive today!
"Su Changqing actually invited out such a supreme being!"

Seeing the young man beside the Sword Emperor, everyone in the Imperial Mausoleum, especially those cultivators who had been enemies of Su Changqing, all lowered their heads and looked away.

Afraid of being noticed by Su Changqing.

Nowadays, Su Changqing can decide everyone’s life or death with just one word!

"Are you the Sword Emperor?"

Tianhuang's frightening scarlet eyes turned towards the Sword Emperor and said with a fierce smile:

"Get out of here, or I'll swallow you up today!"

The moment he finished speaking, Tianhuang took action directly, and scarlet blood threads tore through the sky and went straight towards Su Changqing.

“That’s really crazy.”

The Sword Emperor said calmly, "It's true that I can't kill you, but it's not difficult to get rid of you temporarily."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Sword Emperor raised his finger and lightly drew a line in front of himself.

boom!
But in an instant, a pitch-black crack tens of thousands of feet long appeared in the sky.

"what are you up to!"

Tianhuang paused, turned around and was about to leave.

But suddenly, a giant golden sword fell from the sky and slashed Tianhuang fiercely.

Although the terrifying power still failed to kill Tianhuang, his body fell into the hideous crack like a cannonball.

Upon seeing this, the Sword Emperor waved his sleeves, and the crack in the sky closed instantly.

He listened to the angry roar in his ears and chuckled.
"Exile."
