In the chaotic outer realm, huge ancient trees with endless tops and bottoms covered half of the sky.
Chen Shen stood in front of a hazy road with a calm expression.
It is said that each of the seven roads in the Outer Land can lead to an end. On the other side of the road lies the truth about the tribulation of the era, and it seems to be a way to avoid the catastrophe.
But even the Immortal King and the unparalleled Immortal Emperor find it difficult to continue.
The Chaos Outer Territory is as big as a million stars in the outer world. Even those who have participated in creation are powerless and helpless.
The road under his feet seemed to be the closest, and it was a shortcut.
But it also seems to be the most dangerous. There was a fairy king who once set foot on this road and went crazy after returning.
The three Heavenly Lords also walked by, and returned not long after walking. They were very secretive about everything on the road and did not want to talk about it.
"What's at the end of the road?" Chen Shen whispered.
"Of course there is the truth about the tribulation of the era, as well as the hope of eternal life and avoiding the catastrophe!" An Immortal King said, his eyes full of expectation.
The other strong men who wanted to chase the robbery weapon came, but no one just started on the road. They were waiting and watching, with some hesitation in their eyes.
"That aura is indeed beyond a hundred calamities, but I'm afraid it's just a little bit more than that. If I risk my life for it, I'm afraid it's not worth it." An Immortal King whispered, thinking about it.
"I am the incarnation, what are you afraid of?" Seeing everyone's hesitation, a powerful Immortal King immediately took the lead and was so heroic.
boom!
However, after taking a few steps, a gust of black wind blew and he disappeared.
"The one who is nearly immortal is the Immortal King himself. This journey requires one to travel in his true form and go through all kinds of unimaginable catastrophes before he can go far. If we try to get through with just our incarnation, will we still hesitate?" The Immortal King was disdainful.
Boom!
But there are still people who dare to take this road.
"The Sword Emperor personally led the team." Many people looked at a middle-aged man carrying a long sword on his back, and their pupils shrank sharply.
"The Sword Emperor was attracted. It seems that the weapon that appeared is very powerful." Youxian King lowered his head and pondered.
The Sword Emperor led the way, followed by several Hundred Tribulations Immortal Kings, slowly walking towards the end of the road.
Compared with the other six roads, this road has a brighter light. The road ahead is not blurry, just like a normal path. The sun is shining brightly, and there are flowers and plants growing on the roadside, full of vitality.
It is very inconsistent with the hazy and gray sky around it, giving people a very strange feeling.
On the ancient road, the Sword Emperor had not taken a few steps when they discovered that the other party had disappeared.
"Although this road is a shortcut, it is the most dangerous and mysterious. It is full of all kinds of strange things." An ancient immortal king said.
Whoosh!
Not long after the Sword Emperor and others left, more than twenty Immortal Kings set foot on this road.
"The Sword Emperor is taking the lead for us, why are we hesitating?" An immortal king said with a smile, if he wanted to follow the Sword Emperor, at least he would not die.
However, most are still considering it, and Chen Shen is also waiting and watching.
The Sword Emperor is strong, but his strength is limited. Compared to the three Heavenly Lords, he is a little behind.
The three of them had to go back the same way they came, not to mention the Sword Emperor.
Boom!
At this time, at the end of this ancient road, a hazy territory could be vaguely seen. There, there was brilliance shining, and the majestic aura rushed towards their faces, making everyone's hearts tremble:
"Far beyond the Hundred Tribulation Weapon, at least two hundred tribulations!"
call out!
Several Immortal Kings no longer waited and immediately embarked on the ancient road.
"Don't miss this opportunity, the only opportunity to hold power in the immortal world is right in front of you!" A peerless immortal king shouted, and he was obliged to go on the road.
"Just being on the periphery is not fatal. The Immortal King who went crazy at the beginning can come back alive, and so can we. Not to mention that the Sword Emperor has endured the most danger for us." An Immortal King whispered and started on the road.
Naturally, Chen Shen also went on the road. He was afraid that something might happen to the bones of Senior Yu, and it would be terrible if the bones were gone.
"The Burial Immortal King!" Several Immortal Kings were with him, their attitudes were very respectful.
These people were timid and curious and did not follow the Sword Emperor. They wanted to hug Chen Shen's thigh.
The latter said nothing and walked directly to the depths of the ancient road.
There were not too many accidents along the way, it was smooth.
Of course, when the strong black wind blew, the flowers and plants on the roadside were not corroded, but instead the immortal kings were robbed.
"This power is very strong!" Youxian King said solemnly.
There were five people following Chen Shen, and two of them were immediately blown to pieces by the wind.
"Come incarnate?" The other three Immortal Kings were reborn from decay, and they couldn't help but shake their heads when they found that two of their companions had disappeared.
This black wind is indeed terrifying, but it is only a short-term erosion. The immortal kings who have descended from the true master are not afraid of it and are reborn in the decay, but the incarnation will definitely not be able to withstand it.
The three of them followed Chen Shen and continued forward.
After probably traveling for several light years, a few people stopped because they had caught up with the large army.
Most of the immortal kings on the road are in front of them.
"It's just an ancient road, but it's boundless. Is this a man-made construction or a natural formation?" A fairy king turned around and sighed.
When he looked at the large army again, he was surprised:
"A pool of water has resisted so many strong men, and the Hundred Tribulations Immortal King is in it?"
I saw a puddle of water lying across the ancient road ahead, probably less than half a foot wide, very shallow, but it allowed a group of immortal kings who had participated in the creation to stay in place.
It seems weird.
Of course, it was not that no one crossed over. The Sword Emperor was leaning under an ancient tree in the distance, holding a wine bottle with a cold expression. There were two or three restrained Immortal Kings standing beside him.
"Is there something wrong with this water?" The three immortal kings who came last with Chen Shen frowned.
"I'll take the first step." Chen Shen stepped across the water without hesitation.
He still had to collect the body of the Immortal King of Hundred Tribulations, so how could he retreat because of a puddle of water?
Buzz!
As he crossed over, he noticed an unusual fluctuation.
But then there was a faint sound like glass breaking, and Chen Shen crossed safely without any accident.
"Huh?" The Sword Emperor, who originally had a calm expression, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at this moment.
He stared at the new king in the distance and thought:
"No wonder the Demon Emperor looks at him differently. This person is definitely an unparalleled genius. If it weren't for his arrogant attitude and behavior, I would be willing to save his life just like the Demon Emperor."
"Zangtian just crossed over like that?" The three people following Chen Shen looked sideways, a little surprised.
"Maybe it has something to do with the posture!" One of them recalled Chen Shen's leaping posture, and then he followed Chen Shen's steps and also crossed.
But unfortunately, the Immortal King's eyes became hollow, dull, and seemed to be filled with fear.
"What's going on?" The other two Immortal Kings were shocked.
Why can Zangtian be able to cross it, but his companions are trapped in it?
"If you want to follow, just do it. There is no big danger!" At this time, a strong man following the Sword Emperor spoke.
He seemed a little impatient with these two chirping Immortal Kings.
boom!
There was a roar, and an Immortal King who was stopped in front of the beach was awakened. He crossed over directly, but there was still lingering fear on his face:
"Is this an illusion that can make the Immortal King get lost? Or is there a huge problem with this water? Why do I see a vast sea in my eyes? It seems that I walked for a century before reaching the end and crossing out."
"The combination of reality and reality, there is a problem with the water, but there seems to be some inexplicable force interference on this section of the road. It makes me feel like I have seen the vast sea of space, and it feels like I have been walking for a century."
The second Immortal King woke up and said with a pale face.
boom!
Several immortal kings suddenly flew out, vomiting blood.
"You didn't cross even a puddle of water?" Those people looked ugly.
"What is this, a test?" An immortal king was surprised.
"Thirty epochs ago, this was a river!" Under the ancient tree, the Sword Emperor suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Just a puddle of water blocked the Hundred Tribulations Immortal King, and even the peerless Immortal King could not cross it.
How amazing would it be if it looked like its original form, a raging river?
"No wonder this road is the most dangerous. After only walking a few light years, a strange force blocked the road." An old man sighed.
Very few people take this road, almost all of them are on the road for the first time.
Finally, half of the people crossed over, and the rest could only look at the small water stall and sigh.
But this is because the water flowing here has been infinitely weakened. If it were the original big river, 99% of the people would definitely be put off.
It’s not just as simple as being injured.
"Is this water so scary?" An immortal king was so bold that he reached out to touch the water, but he was robbed.
"Sword Emperor, save me!" The Immortal King was horrified, and finally fell into it.
Gulu!
Finally, everyone discovered that there was a tiny red dot in the water.
"It's extremely scary!" An Immortal King thought about it and was extremely frightened.
"I heard that a certain unfathomable strong man once passed by this place, and the water droplets on his clothes fell, forming what was once a river and now a puddle of water." The Sword Emperor whispered, but no one could listen.
If someone knew about it, it would definitely be scary and even become a shadow.
Finally, the remaining people continued on their way.
Chen Shen felt regretful for a while, as half of the people were suddenly missing, and the one who died was unable to collect the body.
Boom!
After crossing a puddle of water, everyone stepped into a mist.
The sun is no longer shining and flowers are blooming here, but instead it is filled with the smell of decay.
"Gradually, as we go deeper, the original appearance of this ancient road will emerge?" an ancient immortal king was surprised.
"Brother Zang Tian Dao!" A female fairy king called Chen Shen in front of him. The other party suddenly turned around, revealing a scary face, a green face, eyes that almost fell off, and a mouth full of fangs.
"Ah!" she exclaimed.
"A gust of wind blew, and it seemed that some people were missing." On the bright ancient road, Chen Shen suddenly discovered that three people were missing.
Everyone is aware of how keen the Immortal King is.
"I just heard someone say that this road emerged from the water. What do you mean?" an Immortal King whispered.
Many immortal kings looked at the Sword Emperor. The opponent was the strongest and well-informed, and they should know something.
However, the other party did not answer his questions this time and walked further and further away from the few people who followed him.
"If I were omniscient and omnipotent, why would I still be trapped in the fairy world?" the Sword Emperor thought to himself.
He came here today not to be a tour guide for everyone.
Chen Shen turned around, but unfortunately he didn't find the body, so he had no choice but to move on.
"Let's go, this road is too evil." An Immortal King quickly followed the Sword Emperor's footsteps.
Some of them gave up and returned the same way.
Almost all those who can reach this place are the Immortal King's true form. If he really falls, everything will be in vain.
Boom!
One day later, Chen Shen found the body of Senior Yu and laid it on the ancient road.
"I remember that he took another path and died here. He must have been attracted by the mysterious robbery weapon." An Immortal King sighed, feeling sorry for the fallen Immortal King of Hundred Tribulations.
