Chapter 1063 Mighty Ancient Path
Dark clouds covered the sky, and thunder flickered. This silent land seemed to have become even gloomier. There seemed to be shocking killing intent spreading in the desolate wind. The ground kept trembling as it swept through the yellow sand, as if a huge thing was approaching the ancient Imperial City.
"It"s here!" On a majestic pa.s.s under the Nine Heavens, a huge white ape looked covetously at the yellow sand sweeping below. Although his vision was blurry, he could feel the killing intent hidden in the yellow sand.
This was one of the eight great clans of the Desolate Border, the White Ape Clan. Its origin could be traced back to the beginning of the Immortal Ancient. It was one of the Primordial Chaos" demon seeds.
Its greatest characteristic was its extraordinary strength! It had once competed with the Heavenly Horned Ant in the Immortal Ancient and lost in the end.
Although they had lost, no one had ever dared to underestimate them. They had even fought their clan"s honor and soared into the sky.
At this moment, the White Ape Clan was silently guarding the fortress of the Imperial Pa.s.s. They had already set up an inescapable net and were waiting for Ye Qiu and the others to arrive to reel in the net.
Apart from the White Ape Clan, there were also teams from the other large aristocratic families. They chose to stand on the side of the eight great clans and joined this war. In addition, many people from the City Lord Residence appeared here. They were constantly paying attention to the situation on the battlefield and reported to the Head Deacon.
There were a total of four ancient paths outside the Imperial Pa.s.s. They were divided into the east, west, north, and south. The east was the necessary path for the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands to enter the Imperial Pa.s.s. The defense there did not need too many troops.
On the west side was the ancient battlefield facing the foreign races. To the north was the Undead Abyss that connected to the Nine Nether. It was filled with ruthless vengeful spirits and a large number of demonic Blood Clan. The situation inside was complicated and dangerous. Usually, no one dared to step foot on that land.
As for the south, it was a desolate forbidden area, also known as the Immortal King"s tomb. It was the true Forbidden Area of Life. Anyone who entered that place, even an Immortal King expert, would definitely die. Therefore, no one had ever dared to step foot on that land, let alone focus too much on defense.
Therefore, at this moment, after the discussion between the City Lord Residence and the eight great families, all the defense focus was placed on the ancient path in the west.
This was a mighty pa.s.s established to defend against the foreign races. It was called the Heavenly Pa.s.s of Life. There were once Immortal Ancient mighty figures who set up a shocking killing array here. The goal was to resist the invasion of the foreign races.
Yet no one expected that it would become the butcher"s knife that s.n.a.t.c.hed away the younger generation of the Nine Heavens today.
Patriarch White Ape did not panic at all as he held down and presided over the Heavenly Pa.s.s of Life. There was even a disdainful expression on his face.
The eight great clans had controlled Imperial Pa.s.s for so many years and accepted countless factions. They even controlled this heaven-defying killing array. How could Ye Qiu and the other brats overturn it?
It was simply a fool"s dream. Youths knew no fear. If they didn"t suffer a little, they really wouldn"t know their surname.
Forget it! In that case, it was a good opportunity to tell the entire world. As long as the eight great clans were still around, no one could shake their status. Rule was rule. No one could break free from the shackles of fate, and immortals were no exception.
"Patriarch, look! There"s movement in front." On the Heavenly Pa.s.s of Life, a white ape suddenly exclaimed.
Patriarch White Ape looked over disdainfully and saw yellow sand rolling in front of him, as if an army was holding the line. He immediately sneered. "It"s finally here! I"m getting impatient from waiting. That"s good too. I haven"t tasted a new descendant of the Monarch"s bloodline for many years. I can use this opportunity to taste it."
Patriarch White Ape revealed an excited smile, and there was a trace of strangeness in his smile. In his eyes, those so-called descendants of the Monarch"s bloodline and golden bloodline were all delicious food that was extremely nutritious.
Unfortunately, if not for his high status and the restrictions of his status, he could not kill the innocent. Otherwise, he really wanted to taste it every day.
"Roar!" Suddenly, a dragon roar came from above the dark clouds in the Nine Heavens. Its voice shattered the Nine Heavens and echoed throughout the entire yellow sand ancient path.
"Dragon roar? Who is it?" Patriarch White Ape"s expression instantly changed. This aura was at least above the Dao Sacrificial realm. He had never heard of an expert above the Dao Sacrificial realm in the other party"s team.
They were just a group of brats. When they entered the Immortal Ancient Battlefield, the strongest was only at the Dao Sacrificial realm. Why did someone break through to the Dao Sacrificial realm in just a few months?
"Impossible! If you want to break through the shackles of the Dao Sacrificial, you need to spend at least a hundred or even ten thousand years to settle down. You need to reincarnate for a hundred lifetimes and temper yourself in the mortal world to enter the realm.
"How can anyone break through to the realm above the Dao Sacrificial realm in just a few months?"
Patriarch White Ape naturally did not believe it! As an expert above the Dao Sacrificial realm, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was to reach this realm. Otherwise, no one would say that above the Dao Sacrificial realm was the greatest watershed between immortals and mortals.
This was a process of truly achieving transformation.
In just a few months, even a peerless genius could not do it unless they had some heaven-defying opportunity.
Such a heaven-defying opportunity was not like the cabbage sold in the market, where it was everywhere.
How was this possible?
Patriarch White Ape wanted to see who it was clearly through the clouds. His gaze pierced through the entire cloud. When he saw the circling five-clawed flood dragon with faint golden patterns on its body, his expression changed drastically. "Flood Dragon, Fuze!"
"What!" At the side, the expression of an old man from the City Lord Residence changed drastically. He said in shock, "How can it be him? This matter has nothing to do with him."
"Haha, that"s not strange! This child is proud and arrogant, and likes to poke his nose into other people"s business. Since he insists on getting involved, don"t blame me for being rude." After a short shock, Patriarch White Ape waved his hand. The natural chasm that suppressed the Nine Heavens instantly descended with Nine Heavens Divine Lightning, and dark clouds instantly swept over.
The abnormality that shattered the Nine Heavens made one"s hair stand on end, and a murderous aura instantly erupted.
The killing array was activated. The killing array enveloped the entire ancient path of the pa.s.s. Anyone who approached would be hanged in an instant without any ability to resist.
Fuze, who was in the sky, watched all of this coldly. He knew very well how terrifying this natural chasm was. This was also the most important reason why Imperial Pa.s.s could stop the foreign races from invading many times.
Of course, it was impossible for him to break through. With his strength, it was impossible. It was the same even if there were ten thousand people. However, he was not here to break through, but to give the other party a dangerous signal.
This signal would let the people behind understand that this time… they were not playing around. You have to be careful.
As expected, the news of Fuze"s appearance quickly spread to the City Lord Residence. Hearing this news, the Head Deacon sitting in the high seat had a gloomy expression. He was thinking.
The other large families were also thinking. The entire hall seemed especially oppressive and heavy.
