Chapter 527: The First Pass of Mountains and Seas, This Stel

    

the remains of ancient powerhouses.And the master that this bone maiden spoke of, naturally was Xiaoshi Huang.She is also a follower of Xiaoshi Huang and her strength is not inferior to that of ordin...Shanhaiguan is the first pass on the imperial road of the Xianyu realm in the wild sky.

Looking out, the entire pass stands majestically on a celestial platform, towering and ancient with an air of grandeur.

The city gate resembled a heavenly gate, towering one hundred meters high. Above it hung an ancient plaque, inscribed with the words "Shanhaiguan" in blood-like ink.

The entire city of Shanhai, bathed in starlight and moonlight, resembles a silent giant who has stood the test of time.

A vast Milky Way surrounds the city walls of Shanhai City, like a moat.

Even the well-traveled and knowledgeable Lord Xiaoyu couldn't help but sigh at such a majestic and imposing city gate.

Jun Xiaoyao is near the Shanhai Pass.

He could also feel that a powerful aura was lurking deep within the Shanhaiguan Pass, at least that of an emperor.

"He must be the guardian of Shanhaiguan," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

The Eighteen Passes of the Imperial Road in the Profound Heaven Immortal Realm, each pass has a guardian, of course, they generally don't appear.

Unless there is a major disturbance, he won't show up.

Just as Jun Xiaoyao approached the city gate, the guards at the gate immediately blocked his path with their long spears.

"Cultivation below the Heavenly God Realm is not allowed to enter!" The soldier, clad in armor, spoke with a cold tone.

Jun Xiaoyao's features were blurry, though his bearing was extraordinary. He emitted no trace of aura.

Jun Xiaoyao remained silent, his figure trembling slightly. A wisp of his aura sent the soldiers flying.

He strolled leisurely into the city.

"This…" These soldiers all felt a chill down their spines.

That aura sent shivers down their spines.

"How is this possible This is the first level of the Imperial Road, how could such a powerful monster appear" These soldiers were terrified.

Logically speaking, the further one goes down the Emperor's Road, the more opportunities they encounter, and the stronger those prodigies become.

This is just the first level, there probably won't even be much luck involved.

The commotion at the city gate also caught the attention of some people inside Shanhai City.

A few dishevelled youths, with scraggly beards, saw this and shook their heads slightly.

"The ignorant are meaningless, another arrogant prodigy has embarked on the Emperor's Road."

"When he walks a little further, he will see the reality and know how cruel the path to power is."

"Indeed, among the top prodigies of those immortal powers, how many have fallen"

"Those who can ascend the desolate Heaven Saint List are only a handful, most of whom have become skeletons."

Born a cultivator, I apologize...

These young men, depressed and destitute, were clearly failures in their attempt to navigate the imperial path.

"That's enough! Just because you failed the dungeon doesn't mean others can't do it!" another girl in yellow clothes said angrily.

These people are incompetent themselves, yet they always think others are incompetent too.

"That's reality. Only a handful of people can ascend the Huangtian Sacred List and become renowned on the Imperial Path. Will he be one of them"

These dejected young men shook their heads, they were all old internet pessimists.

On the other hand, Jun Xiaoyao was strolling inside the city walls of Shanhai City.

To be honest, after walking for so long in the lonely universe, arriving here feels strangely familiar.

"Young master, since you've arrived at the first gate of the Imperial Road, why not leave your name on the stele as a memento" asked a cultivator beside him.

"Oh"

Jun Xiao Yao raised an eyebrow.

...He did not stay long before arriving at the center of the city gates, where he found a gigantic stone tablet standing straight up, piercing into the Milky Way. ...

Above it, countless names are inscribed, left by the proud geniuses who ventured through the Imperial Road trials.

"This stele is not so simple. Talented prodigies with average cultivation cannot leave their names on it." The cultivator beside him explained.

"Is that so" Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly.

He, however, had no interest in leaving his name on it.

The name of Jun Xiaoyao, need not be recorded by a stone tablet.

Once he had traveled the entire imperial road and conquered it, naturally everyone would proclaim his name.

Just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to leave, a few ragged, disheveled young men walked over.

"Sir, if you don't even have the courage to leave your name on the stone tablet, I advise you not to continue."

"That's right, the Imperial Path is treacherous, not something we can challenge. It's better to stay here and preserve our lives."

"The imperial path is bustling with prosperity, all thanks to those top-tier prodigies. As for us ordinary folks, we have nothing..."

These young people weren't intentionally mocking anyone, they simply believed that not everyone could thrive on the Emperor's Road.

"It seems you are not from the Heavenly Immortal Realm." Jun Xiaoyao suddenly said.

These young people were taken aback, nodding slightly.

If they were beings from the desolate Immortal Realm, seeing Jun Xiaoyao, they wouldn't be able to directly guess it, but they could at least guess seven or eight out of ten.

Obviously, these people don't know him.

Jun Xiaoyao also knows that those who walk the Emperor's Road, besides the Tianjiao of the Huangtian Immortal Domain.

And some prodigies from ancient star domains surrounding the Profound Heaven Immortal Domain.

If we were to say that the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain is like nine gargantuan continents...

Then these ancient star fields are like small islands scattered along the edges of the continent.

These ancient star domains, each one larger than the Lower Realm, also harbor powerful Daoist lineages and top-tier prodigies.

However, these people from the ancient star regions obviously couldn't recognize Jun Xiaoyao.

At most, I have only heard the name Jiuxiao.

"Sir, don't listen to them. They are all failures. You are different."

At this time, the girl in yellow appeared, and when she looked at Jun Xiaoyao, there was a hint of strange light in her eyes.

Although Jun Xiaoyao was shrouded in a mist of fairy light, his features were obscured.

But that ethereal air about her could not be concealed, it caught her eye.

Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly, saying nothing.

He raised his hand and was just about to draw a line across the stone tablet.

Suddenly, the entire ancient stone tablet trembled violently, as if bearing an immense amount of pressure.

"What's going on"

At the city gate, even those soldiers had rushed over upon hearing the news.

The entire Shanhai Pass, all creatures, were now startled and looked at the stele with surprise and disbelief.

This towering stele, inscribed with countless names of talented individuals, stood right under the stroke drawn by Jun Xiaoyao. It began to crack and then collapsed with a thunderous boom!

The entire stele was shattered into pieces!

Inside the city gate of Shan Hai, all cultivators and creatures were dumbfounded.

The stele that recorded countless brilliant prodigies, was actually shattered like this

"How is this possible" many people gasped.

As for those young men who were depressed and listless, they were jolted awake as if doused with cold water, their eyes filled with terror.

The young girl in yellow, her pretty face also stunned, looked extremely shocked.

Before, she had seen dragon shadows, phoenixes, the Ninth Son of Phoenix, and even the Third Prince of the Sea God, all top-tier prodigies on the Heavenly List of Profound Heaven. They had left their names here.

However, none of them managed to shatter the stone tablet; at most, it would emit a brilliant light.

And now, this enigmatic young master before us, who resembles a banished immortal, had shattered the stone tablet without even fully inscribing his name.

What does this represent

"It seems this stele is unworthy of bearing my name." Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly.

Then, he had no further interest in this first pass of the mountains and seas. He directly soared into the sky and continued on the Heavenly Path.

leaving behind a group of stunned cultivators and creatures within the mountains and seas pass.

"What kind of demon is walking the divine path"

"Even an immortal heir of the desolate heavens and earth, a monstrous being from ancient times, wouldn't be this powerful, would they"

Many cultivators and creatures who remained at Shanhaiguan were drenched in cold sweat.

Here comes a tough guy onto the imperial road!

Those young men were utterly petrified, collapsing to the ground like they'd been struck dumb. Their legs wouldn't hold them up, and they remained frozen in place for a long time.

"Young master, what is your identity to be so extraordinary!" The yellow-robed girl's eyes were filled with admiration and awe.

Deep within the Shanhai Pass, there's an aura of supreme power pervading the air.

A lone figure stood, gazing at the departing figure of Jun Xiaoyao.

"The Divine Son steps onto the Heavenly Emperor's Path, this imperial road king battle, interesting..."

The guardian of Shanhai Pass said softly.Chapter 1787 Ancestral Spirit Sacred Race, Bone Spirit Child, A Special Kind of Spiritual Life
