The Dark Turbulence

Chapter 21: The Ultimate Ancient Road (Two-in-One)

The universe is vast and there are countless creatures of all races.

Countless practitioners struggle to cross the sea of ​​suffering throughout their lives. However, no matter how glorious the world is, only one person can achieve enlightenment in a lifetime. This is the consensus of the entire universe and no one can break it.

There are still many great ages where even powerful people who reach the pinnacle of the universe may not be able to achieve enlightenment.

Although there are legends that in the mythological era, there may have been a situation where several emperors coexisted in the emperor's era, there has never been an accurate historical record in the long scrolls of ancient history.

The Ultimate Ancient Road, also called the Emperor's Road, is actually the strongest trial ground deep in the universe's starry sky. Countless people have entered the Emperor's Road, fought for supremacy in the Emperor's Road, and become the withered bones of the Emperor's Road, but there are also people who soar into the sky and stand above the nine heavens.

Countless practitioners choose to embark on the ultimate ancient road to hone themselves and become stronger. The ancient road has the insights and experiences left by the strongest group of people in history. If you can seize the opportunity on the ancient road, not to mention becoming an immortal, it will be no problem to go further on the road to immortality.

At the end of the ancient times, the ultimate ancient road of this world is about to open.

It has been more than ten thousand years since the Fighting Saint Emperor collapsed, and the remaining scars that suppressed the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth have been released. After the dark turmoil, a hundred years have passed, and all races in the universe have gradually walked out of the haze of turmoil and gradually regained their former prosperity.

Moreover, as the shackles of the Great Dao were opened, the constraints on the practitioners in the world were weakened, and many geniuses set foot on the ancient road of the starry sky again, shining brightly in the competition for the Emperor's Road.

Although all races have not yet fully prospered, various physiques are blooming like flowers and appearing in the world, and another prosperous era has arrived.

Qin Fan was still somewhat confused. Although the great era was gradually emerging, only a great sage could set foot on the ultimate ancient road. In just a hundred years, how could there be so many great sages in the universe?

The Emperor's daughter Taiyin solved his doubts for him.

As the dark turmoil came to an end, the ancient races clearly felt that the ancient times were also coming to an end.

The old era is about to end and a new era is about to begin.

The Tianji Dao, which is famous in the universe, was born. The Tianji Dao has been shining brightly since the mythological era. Generation after generation of Tianji has predicted many major events in ancient history.

Contemporary Tianji predicted shortly after the end of the Dark Turmoil that in about a hundred years, the Ultimate Ancient Road would open up, and a peerless immortal would be born.

He also said that the result of this inference was very different from the previous one. The imperial road should not have been opened, but it was opened because of some changes.

The appearance of the last Emperor Road in an era caused a sensation in the universe, attracting some ancient people sealed in the source to be born and compete for the fortune at the end of this era.

The Empress of the Moon told Qin Fan, "The Great Pass has appeared. Many people have inscribed their names on the Crystal Monument. The Heavenly Secret states that the Ultimate Ancient Road will be opened within a year."

After listening to this, Qin Fan decided to embark on the Ultimate Ancient Road.

Before leaving, the Taiyin Emperor's daughter temporarily lent the Human Emperor Seal to Qin Fan and gave him a Taoist talisman.

Qin Fan was about to refuse, but the Taiyin Emperor's daughter said that with Qin Fan's current cultivation level, he could roam the universe and would hardly meet an opponent. However, this time the Ultimate Ancient Road appeared, and it was feared that some extremely powerful people would be born to compete for good fortune. If he met them and was in danger, he could borrow the Human Emperor Seal and leave.

Qin Fan thanked the Taiyin Emperor's daughter for her care and said, "Thank you very much, Emperor's daughter. Now that the Emperor's Road has reappeared, a great opportunity has emerged. Why don't you go there? Who knows, you can use this road to complete the ultimate leap and achieve the legend of two emperors.

The Taiyin Emperor's daughter shook her head and said, "This is not my era. To break through all the ways and achieve myth, I don't necessarily have to follow this path to become an emperor."

Then she smiled slightly and said, "I wish Brother Qin good luck, seize the good fortune, and create another legend."

Three days later, on the ancient star Taiyin.

Qin Fan stood alone on the Divine Light Platform. The Taiyin Emperor's daughter told him the approximate coordinates. Qin Fan looked back and saw many young people from the Taiyin tribe coming to see him off, waving and shouting at him.

Qin Fan silently looked at the energetic faces below the stage. He waved his hand, and the stone platform under his feet suddenly emitted a divine light, carrying Qin Fan into the air and about to disappear from the ancient Taiyin Star.

At the last moment, Qin Fan turned around and looked at the Emperor's daughter of Taiyin. The Emperor's daughter smiled at him and greeted him. She was dressed in white as white as snow, with eyebrows and eyes as picturesque as a painting, and a stunning face, just as Qin Fan had seen her in front of the Immortal Palace. Her unparalleled beauty left an indelible image in his heart.

The moment the door to the void closed, Qin Fan turned around, said goodbye silently, and then looked forward with a firm look in his eyes.

Qin Fan followed the coordinates, and although there were some deviations, he finally reached the final destination.

In the universe, many people now set foot on the Ultimate Ancient Road.

He looked up and ahead.

A majestic and imposing fortress stands tall, shrouded in boundless chaotic energy. It is incomparably grand, as if it spans between heaven and earth. Ancient Taoist patterns are engraved on the city walls. These patterns shine with immortal brilliance and contain the heaviness of history.

In front of the pass, several huge stone pillars rise into the clouds and stand above the ground. The names of the Taiyin Human Emperor, the Sun Holy Emperor, the Yuan Emperor, etc. are engraved on the stone pillars.

The stone pillar that reaches the sky is engraved with not only the name of the Supreme, but also the history of the Supreme before he became enlightened. It is a record of his dominance of an era.

Not only human emperors, but supreme beings from other races have also embarked on the path to becoming emperors, fighting their way out of the world.

There were other people stopping in front of the huge stone pillar to admire the emperor's footprints.

A burly middle-aged man with loose black hair, with an ancient and mellow gourd hanging around his waist, stood under the Yuanhuang Stone Pillar with a look of nostalgia in his eyes.

Qin Fan glanced over casually and found that the gourd on the middle-aged man's waist was extraordinary. The great way was simple, chaotic and ancient, and the imperial laws were faintly flowing. This was actually an ultimate imperial weapon!
This person was standing under the Yuanhuang Stone Pillar. The middle-aged man's origin was obvious. He was the Great Sage from the Primitive Lake.

In the past, when Emperor Yuan passed away, two holy spirits were born one after another, trying to seize Emperor Yuan’s treasure. The three sons of Emperor Yuan fought against the holy spirits and all died in the battle. Only the youngest son of Emperor Yuan left some bloodline. The middle-aged man in front of him is the fourth-generation grandson of Emperor Yuan - Yuan Dao.

Emperor Yuan was extremely talented. He killed a powerful enemy in Qixiayuan, and then embarked on an invincible imperial path and finally achieved the great way.

Even in his later years, when his life was about to end, Emperor Yuan did not choose to commit suicide or live in the forbidden area.

In the world of Shrouding the Sky, with the exception of Yuan Huang and Douzhan Sheng Huang, most of the recorded ancient emperors chose to kill themselves in their later years, and then lay dormant in the restricted area, waiting for the path to immortality to open.

Qin Fan withdrew his gaze and looked at the gate of the pass. The bronze ring with animal heads exuded an ancient and desolate Taoist spirit, and there was no one guarding it.

Currently, the Ultimate Ancient Road has not been opened yet. Without the strength of a Great Sage, even the city gate cannot be opened.

Qin Fan walked forward and stood in front of the gate. He took a step forward and with a buzzing sound, a huge stone tablet made of crystal appeared in front of the gate.

The stone tablet reaches up to the sky, with divine light flowing on it. The name written on the crystal tablet requires the cultivation of a great sage.

Qin Fan looked at the stone tablet in front of him. There were more than a hundred names engraved on it, and each name was shining.

The first name is Taichu!

Qin Fan was somewhat surprised. The first name inscribed on the crystal monument in this life was still Taichu, and he was also born in this life.

Taichu is a spiritual fetus conceived by the Taichu Ancient Mine. He should have been a natural emperor, but because the Taichu Ancient Mine was chosen as a forbidden area by the Supreme, he luckily escaped from the Supreme's hands and finally succeeded in achieving enlightenment in the Era of the Heavenly Emperor.

Qin Fan looked down and found that he didn't recognize many of the names until the 30th one appeared.

It was actually the Emperor! He was also born in this lifetime.

The Emperor was the disciple of the Emperor. In ancient history, the smallest number of names inscribed on a crystal stele was only fifty-five, and he was one of them. He killed all fifty-four who had rushed to the pass before sighing softly and choosing to leave without entering the Imperial Pass. It seemed that the final opening of the Ancient Road in the Primordial Era had a profound impact on the world, with two ancient geniuses recognized by Qin Fan appearing one after another.

Qin Fan continued to look down and found Duan De at the seventy-eighth name. A hundred years had passed and he had become a great sage and had also inscribed his name on the crystal monument. He found Zhang Bairen at the ninety-ninth name. In this life, he also did not catch up with the fiftieth name and did not fight for the one that escaped.

Qin Fan did not recognize the rest of the names. So far in this life, more than a hundred people had their names written down, but most of them were ancient people, and there were not many modern people.

The Emperor's Road has been opened over a hundred times, but most of those who have reached the summit of the Emperor's Road have failed to achieve enlightenment.

It is not the Emperor's Path that makes one supreme, but the Supreme that makes one's Path to the Emperor.

For example, Taiyin Human Emperor and others, they once reigned supreme on this road, and finally achieved enlightenment, giving this ancient road a myth.

Not everyone embarks on this path to attain enlightenment.

Qin Fan left his name on the crystal stele, inscribed with iron and silver strokes.

He has now reached the level of a quasi-emperor, and is carrying the supreme imperial weapon, the Human Emperor Seal. Unless the Supreme of the Forbidden Zone is born, who can be his opponent? Not to mention, he also carries the supreme immortal weapon, the Desolate Tower, but the Desolate Tower is currently in a deep sleep.

Qin Fan then left and went to a nearby ancient star to wait for the Emperor Road to open. According to contemporary predictions, the Ultimate Ancient Road will open in the near future.

Time flies, and six months have passed in a flash.

Qin Fan sat cross-legged on the top of the mountain, reciting the ancient scriptures. The Taoist Dharma wheel rotated the five secret realms, and the power of the moon spread out. Suddenly, a light gate appeared in front of him, and countless light rains fell.

The imperial gate is open!

When the Emperor's Road is opened, no matter where the person who writes his name on the crystal monument is, a door will appear in front of him. He only needs to enter the light gate to go directly to the Emperor's Pass.

Qin Fan stood up, took a step forward and entered the light gate.

The next moment, he appeared in front of the Imperial Pass.

Qin Fan was about to move forward when a fat Taoist suddenly appeared in front of him. His bloated figure stepped out of the light gate, his back facing Qin Fan, and he muttered, "Wuliang Tianzun, what the hell are you doing to me, the Taoist?"

Qin Fan chuckled. It seemed like fate really was predestined. He didn't expect that he would be the first person he met in front of the Emperor's Pass.

Then he walked quietly behind Duan De and patted Duan De's shoulder hard. When Duan De turned around, he saw Qin Fan showing a mouthful of white teeth and smiling at him.

"Ghost, why is it you again!" Duan De yelled and took two or three steps back, attracting the attention of other people nearby.

"Master Duan, it's been a hundred years since we last met. I hope you are well."

Qin Fan looked at him and said with a smile: "Why can't it be me?"

Duan Deyuan's eyes flickered, and he looked shocked. He couldn't help but approach Qin Fan and whispered, "Are you a human or a ghost? In just a hundred years, you've already advanced from the Great Sage level to the Quasi-Emperor realm?!"

Qin Fan had already used the Human Emperor Seal to conceal the secrets of heaven, but he didn't expect that Duan De could still see his cultivation level. It seemed that the Heavenly Eye could indeed see through the heavens.

Qin Fan sighed softly, "Master Duan, I am just like you, suffering in the human world."

The Imperial Pass is majestic, and the blood-red light on the city walls breaks the desolation.

The ancient and dusty city gate opened, hundreds of divine lights lit up, and hundreds of people rushed into the Imperial Pass from different directions.

Then, Qin Fan and Duan De walked into the city gate together.

Inside the city gate, a huge light array rose into the sky, emitting the mystery of space. Beside the huge light array, several powerful men were suspended in the air and said, "Anyone entering the Emperor's Gate will enter the light array and go straight to the Third Emperor's Gate."

The light array flashed by, and the two appeared in the Third Emperor's City.

The Third Emperor's Pass is majestic and magnificent. It is built from the remains of countless fallen stars. These star remains emit starlight, making the Third Emperor's Pass like a shining star in the boundless deep space.

There are multiple Heavenly Lord and Ancient Emperor formations here to protect the Imperial Pass from collapse in a war.

As soon as the two landed, powerful men collided with them from the void.

boom!
The battle of the Great Sage had already destroyed the world and shattered the stars in the outside world, but within the Emperor's Pass, it was unable to unleash such a powerful force.

Inside the Third Emperor's City, there is a main road made of stars. The end of the road cannot be seen. On both sides of the main road, there are pavilions and towers, just like the busy streets in the mortal world.

The pavilions and towers have been occupied by some powerful people, and some of them are staring at Qin Fan and Duan De with a covetous look.

There are still some indigenous people in Diguan. Over the endless years, Diguan also needs to be adjusted and repaired. Some of those who set foot on this road in the past chose to stay here, and their descendants became the indigenous people of Diguan.

Qin Fan and Duan De walked forward. On the way, Qin Fan saw a woman standing on the highest attic. She had a veil on her face and chaos covered her face, so she couldn't see her appearance clearly. Her black hair was like a waterfall, her figure was graceful, and her demeanor was elegant. It was also unclear what her strength was. Behind the woman, there were two beautiful women standing, like maids, both of whom had the cultivation level of Great Saints.

Qin Fan was shocked. Who was this beautiful woman? Even her maid was a Great Sage.

The woman in the attic also noticed Qin Fan and Duan De. She looked over with an unusual expression, but did not pay too much attention. It was obvious that she had noticed something unusual about the two.

Duan Deyidao's voice came: "This woman is an unparalleled strong person, her cultivation is unfathomable!"

Qin Fan and the other man also found an ownerless attic and flew up.

Qin Fan turned around and looked towards the attic not far away. A blue-haired woman appeared in front of him. She had bright eyes, white teeth, fair skin, a slender figure, and was graceful and charming. She was so beautiful that she could captivate the whole country.

The blue-haired woman had a jade hairpin in her hair with a small purple Qilin hanging on it. She also noticed Qin Fan, so she turned her head and smiled at him.

A smile that is enough to conquer the city, a thousand beauties.

Qin Fan's expression changed. The blue-haired woman in the attic was only at the second level of the Immortal Realm and had not yet achieved the Dao of Destruction. However, her appearance allowed Qin Fan to roughly guess who she was.

From behind the beautiful blue-haired woman, a blue-haired man appeared. He had an aloof look and looked somewhat similar to the woman. Next to the blue-haired man, an old man followed him.

In the old man's hand was a dazzling divine staff, which was crystal blue all over and made of eternal blue gold. It was dazzling and brilliant. At the end of the staff was a Qilin head, which was lifelike and exuded the ancient imperial power.

The Qilin Staff of the Ancient Qilin Emperor!

The blue-haired girl is Huo Lin'er, who is extremely beautiful yet also a little playful. The aloof man is Huo Qizi. They are only at the second level of the Immortal Realm now, and were brought into the Imperial Pass by the Great Sage of the clan.

Duan De beside him said, "The guardians of the Ultimate Ancient Road will grant a few people special ancient orders, allowing them to enter the Imperial Pass. Just like the indigenous residents of the Imperial Pass, even if they are not great saints, they can still survive in the Imperial Pass forever."

Rumble!
At this moment, the void of the Third Imperial Pass shook, and all the strong men in the city looked towards the void.
