However, as the two continued to advance, they eventually encountered more and more creatures, whose strength also increased. However, compared to Yunhua and Ruthless Man, these people were nothing more than targets to be sold, unless their raw strength was more than a major realm higher.

However, these creatures were all of different races, and almost no humans lived among them.

"Is it because of the trial?" With nothing to do, Yunhua's thoughts raced as she tried to guess the reason.

"This is the path of trials leading to the human race, but the ultimate goal is the battle to become an emperor, a great confrontation with all races in the universe." Ruthless Man said to Yun Hua, who was on the verge of losing his mind and directly revealed his thoughts.

The two opened one altar after another. Sometimes, they would pass through hundreds of five-colored altars in a single day. Other times, they would linger for several days because of the strange and magnificent scenery.

"Finally arrived." Yun Hua breathed a sigh of relief. After several years of lonely travel, if it weren't for the ruthless person beside him talking to him, Yun Hua probably would have taken the initiative to go and chat with those alien races.

Having embarked on this ancient road for so long, we have finally reached a crucial juncture, where a stone tablet guides us forward, leading to the trial path of the human race.

Ahead on the road, stone tablets appeared one after another. During this process, Yunhua was able to meet a number of people, who were cultivators from various star fields. The road converged here.

The Ancient Road of Humanity was a testing ground for those who had not yet attained enlightenment in the era before the Great Emperor. However, it was also a sacred place for cultivators from various star regions to exchange ideas, as almost all star regions were connected to it, making it of great significance in terms of communication.

Yun Hua's eyes lit up, and array patterns appeared beneath her feet. In an instant, she traversed tens of thousands of miles of starry sky and arrived at a place under the starry sky.

Before him stood a magnificent city, its grandeur breathtaking, with the sounds of dragons and phoenixes echoing from it, stretching across the sky under the stars and moon, eternally enduring.

This ancient city is undoubtedly magnificent, with a touch of mystery and wonder. It is not located on a planet, but rather it floats in the vast starry sky, shrouded in the glow of countless stars, reflecting each other and dazzling the eye.

The stars and moon hung high in the sky, their radiance like a waterfall, cascading down and spreading across the ancient city. Many people stopped to admire this man-made spectacle in the starry sky, while others came to pay homage to their ancestors.

"The first hurdle for humanity!"

Yunhua and the ruthless man stopped and gazed at the ancient city, which exuded a vast and majestic atmosphere and nurtured an immortal power.

It covers a vast area, with city walls like mountains stretching endlessly, and city towers tall and magnificent. A pair of heavy city gates are closed, as if they can block thousands of troops and ancient sages!

At this moment, dozens of figures had arrived in front of the ancient city. Most of them were Dao-Slaying Kings, a dozen or so were Half-Saints, and there were only seven Saints.

This world has only just begun to see the revival of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and the laws of Heaven and Earth have not yet completely changed, so there is no sense of a struggle for the path to becoming an emperor.

Since the gate to the first level had not yet opened, Yunhua and the ruthless man had no choice but to find a place to sit cross-legged and wait. They waited for several days without any fighting happening. Everyone was very restrained, and during this time, the number of people increased.

Most of them came from the depths of the star field and gathered here. In the end, the number of them reached more than a hundred, but they still did not have an opponent of the same level as Yunhua Ruthless.

"Enter the customs!"

Finally, a divine thought arrived, echoing like a great bell, causing many people's bones to tremble and their blood to surge, revealing expressions of horror. Yun Hua estimated that the strength of the owner of this voice was about the same as his.

Chapter 123 Fallen Saint Island and the Battlefield of the Blood Pool

The city gate of the first pass on the ancient road of the human race creaked open, incredibly heavy. Although it was a giant city standing in the starry sky, there was also an environment suitable for human survival inside.

More than a hundred monks who had been waiting outside the pass for a long time either rode on horseback or walked in, and none of them were at peace.

This ancient city exudes an aura of antiquity and vicissitudes. It is built of gray-brown megaliths, magnificent and awe-inspiring, and guarded by people.

There weren't many soldiers, but they were all dressed in uniform magical armor, their long halberds cleaving the sky and their iron spears cutting through the air, like a troop of heavenly soldiers, eyeing the crowd menacingly.

Some commotion occurred during the entry into the city. The strong were vying to be the first to enter the ancient city. Yunhua and the ruthless man followed behind the crowd and slowly entered the majestic ancient city, seemingly not attracting much attention.

"No violence is allowed within the city; violators will be severely punished," warned a monk dressed in the style of a military officer.

On the side of the magnificent city tower, soldiers holding halberds and iron spears coldly gazed down.

Yunhua paid no attention to the gazes of the soldiers around him. He walked unhurriedly through the city gate, which was dozens of feet high and built with a rare stone. It was covered with various array patterns and was filled with traces and ancient energy.

Inside the city gate, there were also several soldiers, exuding a chilling aura. They wore heavy armor, and their metallic battle suits were so menacing that it was hard to breathe.

"Now that we've entered the city, we must not cause trouble here. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without exception!"

One of the middle-aged soldiers, a man of imposing stature, clad in black iron armor and wielding a bronze halberd covered in scars, spoke with a resolute voice. His words carried a chilling, holy aura filled with iron-blooded power, instantly making the trial participants solemn.

They all knew that those stationed here were no ordinary people; each one was a powerful expert at the Dao-Slaying Realm, and the generals were all Saints.

They were the losers of the former Imperial Road, who voluntarily dedicated themselves to the cities of this ancient human road, sometimes resisting the invasion of the ancient road of other races, and sometimes punishing those who disobeyed the prohibitions.

The city was extremely prosperous, with wide streets lined with ancient trees that were lush and full of foliage. There were also many buildings, and the environment was no different from that in other star systems.

This is a huge city full of life. Some children are running around, curious about these people, constantly looking them over.

On a normal day, the streets should be bustling with people, shoulder to shoulder. But today, there are few vendors hawking their wares, and people in the shops are looking out. Many of the street vendors have also temporarily moved aside to make way for them.

Upon arriving at the city center square, a phantom appeared in the air, its face obscured, only two pairs of eyes gleaming with a terrifying light.

"I am the guide for the first level. Only those who pass the test can enter the next level. Fighting is strictly prohibited in the city; violators will be executed." The guide's words were concise and his tone was calm, yet they were filled with murderous intent.

The next day, all the trial participants were summoned by a vast horn. They were about to head to the trial grounds of the first level, where they needed to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao and be selected as the strongest with sufficient comprehension to have a chance to enter the next level.

A bolt of lightning flashed, the void split open, and a unique altar appeared above the plaza, incredibly large.

The commander chanted ancient syllables, and together with his soldiers, he activated the altar, releasing a massive beam of light that pierced through the universe, tearing open a wide spatial passage leading to an unknown destination.

"Get on the road!"

The commander shouted and led the way into the arena. Yunhua and the ruthless man followed closely behind, just like the other trainees. Finally, twenty soldiers brought up the rear.

After an unknown amount of time, the group emerged from the passage and were greeted by a massive island—not a celestial body, not a meteorite, but a mysterious colossal island.

It is more magnificent than an ancient star, exuding an aura of ancient vicissitudes. Having endured countless calamities, it stands here as the first trial ground, named Fallen Saint Island.

This is an ancient battlefield where many sages perished, leaving behind a legacy of their wisdom and teachings. Various principles are scattered throughout, primarily testing one's comprehension.

This Fallen Saint Island is divided into fifty regions, each with its own set of laws. For Yunhua and Ruthless Man, this is paradise. For a Chaos Body and a person about to evolve into a Chaos Body, these fifty regions represent fifty laws. With their comprehension, they are capable of traversing all fifty regions. Even if crossing regions would subject them to a million-pound shackle seal, it would be nothing to them.

The two stepped directly into the nearest area and began to comprehend the Dao area by area. Although some people were blind and tried to make a move, they were too weak and were killed by Yunhua with a single palm strike.

Along the way, they encountered various laws, such as wind, thunder, light, the five elements, nature, yin and yang. After traveling through forty-nine regions, the two, burdened by shackles weighing tens of millions of pounds, prepared to enter the final region.

Legend has it that this place is a forbidden zone, where even ancient saints often perish upon entering. It has always been the burial ground for the strong and the curious. Feeling the surging bloodthirsty aura around them, one knows that this area is inhabited by beings who have reached the Saint realm. Ten thousand years have passed, and the ground is littered with corpses.

The core area is a ten-mile-long lake of blood-red color, soaring into the sky and filled with killing intent. This is the so-called Blood Battlefield. The one that everyone needs to overcome most is themselves. Here, one will be directly reflected, and an opponent who is exactly the same as them in terms of strength and supernatural powers will appear, which can be used to find one's own shortcomings.

Yunhua stepped inside, needing the feeling of fighting against himself to find the opportunity to break through his own path. Ruthless also stepped inside, and the two were directly separated into different areas, accepting the battle between themselves.

Looking at the figure leaping out of the blood lake, it was indeed exactly the same as himself, both in terms of aura and strength.

"Stop looking. I am you. After I kill you, you useless piece of trash who can't find your own path and can't sever your own path, I will directly replace you and walk to the end of the Emperor's Road to receive the worship of all ages."

Yun Hua ignored his opponent's trash talk and immediately used the Chaos Seal, unleashing a beam of chaotic immortal light that pierced through the void and aimed directly at the clone. However, the clone, with a mocking smile, countered Yun Hua's Chaos Seal with the same move.

The two had fought to the point of madness, unleashing a barrage of hand seals and divine techniques. Chaotic blood flowed from Yun Hua's body as he unleashed a Heaven-Opening Seal, its terrifying sword light shattering the cycle of cause and effect, but it could not destroy his other self.

Yunhua had never felt time pass so slowly. His physical body and vital energy were almost dried up. His origin had burned too wildly, almost leading to the end of his life!

His entire body was covered in blood brimming with chaotic energy, but as soon as it flowed out, it was absorbed back by a mysterious Dao principle. Yun Hua had already pushed his Chaotic Life and Death Technique and Chaotic Creation Technique to their limits, elevating them to another peak. Unfortunately, no matter what laws Yun Hua comprehended or what supernatural abilities he created, any progress he made would be copied by another version of himself, which was extremely shameless.

Fortunately, this life-or-death trial has come to an end. After teetering on the brink of death dozens of times, Yunhua finally discovered a weakness in his opponent: whenever he made progress, another version of himself needed time to reflect on it. The greater the progress, the longer it took to reflect on it. So, like setting up a chess game, Yunhua slowly made some insights in some seemingly unimportant places, and was about to accumulate his own forbidden killing move.

At this moment, Ji Huanyu transformed into a real universe. Yunhua, using the minor advancements in other laws during this time, constructed a world-shaking fusion attack. With all the self-generated Dao evolving into the destruction of the real universe, this single move shattered all Daos, turning this area into a land without Dao. Instantly, it blasted open this trial space, leaving no opponent in sight. The blood-red lake was instantly evaporated by half. This was the accumulation of tens of thousands of years, now half of which was wiped out by Yunhua's single move.

Chapter 124 The Source of the Dao

On the eighth day, Yunhua had been waiting outside the Crimson Battlefield for four days. During these days, Yunhua had also developed a preliminary plan for his fifth single-realm transformation.

Once Yunhua undergoes her fifth transformation, her basic strength will reach the Saint King level, enough for her to pass through the early and middle stages of the Emperor's Path.

The ruthless woman on the bloody battlefield was now exhausted. Her accumulated strength was insufficient for her to suddenly unleash her power and overcome herself. Although she had been making progress, it was not enough to cause a qualitative change.

However, her gains from this battle were undoubtedly enormous. Not only did she create a method to temporarily resolve the fundamental conflict during the battle, but she also further refined her various forbidden secret techniques.

This battle, which reflected his own experiences, made the ruthless man realize how difficult he was to kill, but he also gained a lot, gaining a clearer understanding of his own path to greatness and refining the power he had accumulated in recent years into something incredibly well-rounded.

At this moment, her essence, energy, and spirit were united, soaring to infinite heights, transforming into a point of spiritual light hanging high, reaching an astonishing realm. Her blood energy was like a vast ocean, her divine consciousness was as refined as celestial light, and her whole being was like a living god or demon.

She triggered the divine restriction once again, intending to unleash a world-shaking attack, but unfortunately the blood-red battlefield did not give her the chance, because time was up and they were directly teleported out.

Yunhua looked disheveled, but her eyes were extremely bright and clear, clearly indicating that she had gained a great deal. Yunhua handed her a 100,000-year-old medicinal king to help her recover. Yunhua once again thanked the Tian Shu Holy Land for putting a large amount of their belongings into the Tian Shu Star Orbit Instrument.

"It seems you've had a good haul. It seems the Ancient Trial Road for Humans truly lives up to its reputation," Yunhua said, looking at the ruthless man who had fully recovered after consuming the Medicine King.

"Unlike you, you actually defeated yourself and even evaporated half of the blood pool." The ruthless man sensed the abnormality of the blood pool during the battle, and only after he came out did he find Yun Hua waiting outside and the blood-red lake that had shrunk considerably.

"Let's go, let's get out of here quickly. I reckon it's just the two of us who haven't left yet." Yunhua and Ruthless immediately flew towards the exit of Fallen Saint Island, where many trainees had already gathered.

"There were 125 people when we arrived, and now there are 114. You've done well. This trial is over."

The Grand Commander glanced with satisfaction at the trial participants who emerged from Fallen Saint Island, took out an iron plaque from his robes, and flicked it towards the sky, emitting a soft holy light that covered Fallen Saint Island.

Immediately afterwards, an altar appeared in the void, with various patterns intertwined and radiating thousands of divine lights, leading them back to the first trial of the human race.

The ancient city at the first pass remains peaceful, with people coming and going on the streets, making it very prosperous and lively. Everyone has a different feeling when they return.

"Congratulations everyone, you have taken the first step to success. In a few days you will be leaving to embark on your most glorious journey. Please cherish your last moments in the first city of the human race."

The Grand Commander offered words of encouragement, then dismissed the trial participants to rest before heading to the second trial grounds.

...

Three days later, the ancient horn sounded once more, vast and distant, summoning all the trial participants. An altar appeared, situated in the sky, flowing with a hazy radiance.

"All of you, get on the road and do not stop!"

The commander arrived riding a silver wolf. His voice was deep, but it made many people's blood boil and they lost their balance.

"After that, you will fight your way to the second level. You can use any means you want. Everyone is an enemy of the world. The one who survives to the end will pass the level!"

The commander's words were filled with murderous intent, piercing the heavens and causing everyone's energy to boil.

Fighting! Every single one of them is an enemy!

A chilling aura suddenly rose among the more than one hundred trial participants, and their gazes toward each other became sharp.

The five-colored altar radiated countless divine lights, opening a star gate. One by one, the trial participants entered, which transported them to a vibrant world filled with rare and precious treasures.

This is a pure land, filled with the essence of heaven and earth. Spiritual trees and herbs abound nearby, many of which are ancient and precious medicinal herbs. It looks peaceful and serene.

However, it was difficult to find any living beings here. Yunhua and the ruthless person had been separated and had not seen any other trial participants for a long time. Moreover, this ancient land had unparalleled restrictions that prevented the trial participants from taking flight and forced them to proceed step by step.

Yunhua sped along, collecting all the precious herbs and spiritual materials he encountered. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was as bold as the heavens. Along the way, some people saw Yunhua's unrestrained behavior and wanted to suppress him, but their strength was simply too much for Yunhua to handle.

It wasn't until Yunhua arrived at a medicinal garden that she saw the jade figure that had taken the form of the Azure Jade, sitting in a beautiful jade carriage about a foot in size, radiating a powerful holy aura.

"Who are you, daring to trespass into the forbidden area of ​​my herb garden?"

Before Mu Ran could even get close, the carriage roared out of the rolling mountains, uttering a stern rebuke.

Immediately afterwards, a green light descended like a bolt of lightning from the sky, its holy power surging and sweeping towards Yunhua.

Yun Hua smiled faintly, extended a large hand, the five elements flowed, the four symbols circled, and chaotic energy permeated the palm, opening up a great world and sweeping it away.

The next moment, the sky changed color, the sea of ​​clouds collapsed, and the mountains within a radius of ten thousand miles were shattered by this attack.

The giant hand, which transformed into a world, crashed down, instantly shattering the green light. The lingering shockwaves swept in all directions, alarming the trial participants in the distance.

A five-element palm-shaped mountain peak suppressed the Holy Spirit miniature beneath it, leaving only its head exposed. The miniature body showed faint signs of cracking, indicating severe damage. As a stone figure, it received the same treatment as Sun Wukong.

After suppressing the Divine Jade Figurine, Yun Hua chuckled and looked with satisfaction at the dazzling array of medicinal herbs in the garden. He then waved his hand, unleashing a powerful force that swept across the spiritual land within a thousand miles, collecting all the spiritual fruits into the Celestial Pivot Star Orbit Instrument. With a contented expression, he leisurely walked out of the spiritual land.

"Go to hell, you damned trial participant, what the hell did you crawl out of out of nowhere, you freak?!...My herb garden! My herb garden, ahhhhhh!"

On this day, Yunhua arrived at a battlefield where many little jade figures were fighting with some strange creatures and human trial participants for a ball of light, about the size of a human head. The light was soft, the divine nature was amazing, and various Dao symbols appeared, making it mysterious and unpredictable.

Seeing that mass of Dao Source, everyone's mouths went dry, and they rushed forward to snatch it without hesitation.

"Get out of my way! It's mine!" "Anyone who dares to stop me will be killed without mercy!"

Two loud shouts erupted from the cracks in the ground, followed by two beams of immortal light that shattered a group of creatures trying to seize the Source of the Dao. Then, two ancient saints quickly ascended into the air and reached for the Source of the Dao.

But all living beings seemed to have gone mad, fighting the ancient saints for the source of the Dao without fear of death. Even the Spirit Saints, who had not participated in the battle, appeared. There were three of them, all grabbing at the source of the Dao together.

Unfortunately, the Source of the Dao possesses extremely strong divinity, traversing the world at incredible speeds, sometimes disappearing into the void, allowing the five sages and countless beings to pursue and intercept it, until finally it vanishes into the world.

As Yunhua approached the battlefield, he suddenly reached out and grasped, and a ball of light the size of a human head, incomparably peaceful and holy, appeared in his hand. He was somewhat puzzled as to why the Source of the Dao would appear before him.

Chapter 125 Killing Five Saints in Succession

"Why? How could such a thing happen! Did the Source of Dao directly choose him?!"

"The Source of the Dao has come to submit on his own initiative? Could he be the reincarnation of an ancient emperor? There's no such thing in the world!"

The battlefield erupted in uproar. Countless people were shocked and astonished. How could there be such a person in the world who was so favored by heaven and earth!

"Heavens! My Source of Dao! It's mine, and no one can take it from me. Even if it's the Lord, so what? Today I will defy the heavens and seize the Source of Dao with my own hands!" An ancient sage, unwilling to lose the Source of Dao, made a powerful move.

This was an ancient sage of the Crimson Fire Clan. In order to seize the Source of the Dao, he forcefully unleashed a divine flame that filled the sky. The crimson divine fire fell from the sky, sealing Yun Hua's body and attempting to roast him alive.

Unfortunately, he underestimated Yunhua. Yunhua stepped forward, holding the Taiyin and Taiyang in her hands. A huge bright moon rose into the sky above the blazing sun, and the two intertwined and evolved. In an instant, a Yin-Yang diagram absorbed all the divine fire in the sky and then bombarded the Crimson Fire Clan Saint.
