Chapter 1402: Chapter 1402: Gathering of the Prodigies

The ultimate battlefield.

The ultimate battlefield is the final checkpoint within the Ghost Cave, situated at the convergence of ten ancient roads.

In this area, an aura of ancient and timeworn energy permeates everywhere, clearly indicating great antiquity, and above this ancient battlefield, golden stairs are laid down from above.

Looking up, one sees at the top of the golden stairs a resplendent, ancient palace glowing with ten thousand rays of light, dazzling and majestic, as if it commands all directions.

"Divine Hall of Tears!" The three large black characters on the golden plaque.

Moreover, each character seems to contain an endless realm of Great Dao Intent.

Divine Hall of Tears!

As the name suggests, even a god reaching here would undoubtedly prostrate in worship and not dare to approach the Golden Hall by a step.

Furthermore, on the battlefield at the intersection of these ten ancient roads, many figures have appeared, numbering over a hundred.

But this number alone is already frightening.

Thousands had entered the Ghost Cave, yet only over a hundred made it here; such an elimination rate is terrifying indeed.

Truly, it’s unimaginable.

Of course, those who reached the end are the most outstanding prodigies, and their arrival here naturally came after overcoming numerous trials.

Indeed, many of them, like Xiao Tianyu and Mo Qingluan, experienced a transformation, increasing their talents severalfold.

Among them are leaders from various major forces.

For instance, the Profound Emperor, Lihen Heaven, and Li Yuan among others.

Besides them, naturally, there is the City Lord of Nine Provinces City, Jian Wushuang of Juechen Sword Sect, and the Left and Right Guardians Yan Nanfei and Chu Tiancheng, both with extraordinary Sword Dao accomplishments.

Moreover, after the journey through the ancient roads, these Left and Right Guardians’ Dao Intent has stepped into the Celestial Spirit Position, belonging to the peak echelon of prodigies.

Of course, it’s not just them; Lihen Heaven also has two Sword Dao prodigies whose Dao Intent has entered the Fourth Realm of the Celestial Spirit Position.

These two are Shang Tong and Qiao Yu, holding very high positions in Lihen Heaven, considered the right and left hands of Sword Master Lihen Heaven.

Now, after a transformation, they have also been elevated.

Besides them, beside the Palace Master Li Yuan of the Primordial Saint Palace stand two young men, brimming with prominence.

Both are direct bloodlines of the Great Li Dynasty, possessing extraordinary bloodline power.

It’s worth noting that the Ancient Dynasty of Great Li once ruled the Central Region of Yanzhou, being the absolute overlord.

Even as times change and eras shift, splitting Yanzhou into seven parts, the bloodline of the Great Li royalty remains dreadfully formidable.

Coupled with the insights gained during their journey through the ancient roads, they are undoubtedly unparalleled prodigies here.

These two are Li Cang and Li He.

Of course, the Profound Emperor Hall can be considered one of the most elite forces in the Ancient Realm, and the legendary figures within the hall evidently surpass just the Profound Emperor; this journey through the Ghost Cave also brought achievements to two others.

They are the two vice Hall Masters, Xiao Yifeng and Ouyang Tian.

Besides these people, there are still many whose talents enjoyed a comprehensive ascent, such as the Sect Leader of the Celestial Cloud Sect... and others.

This journey through the Ghost Cave will undoubtedly lead to a major reshuffling of the rankings on the Ancient Realm List.

"A month has passed, and why hasn’t anyone from the Tenth Ancient Road arrived yet? Could they all have perished?" Those eliminated from the ancient road cast their gaze toward the distant battlefield, puzzled.

They have been here for over a month, yet not a single person from the road that Juechen and Xiao Tianyu took has appeared, which perplexes many.

Another person spoke up: "It shouldn’t be the case; if they were all lost, why have the nine supreme defenders not declared war? It’s clear they’re still waiting for those from the Tenth Ancient Road.

If they knew that Xiao Tianyu and Mo Qingluan were delayed for a month due to their baptism in the Celestial Dao Pool, they might well be frustrated to the point of spitting blood. After all, everyone here is waiting for them.

"You nine old guys have been waiting a long time, haven’t you?" At this moment, a loud voice resounded from the void, deafening and overpowering.

Whoosh, whoosh~

Hearing the voice, many turned their eyes only to see a gigantic figure, Ling Tian, stepping through the void with an enormous body that seemed to crush the sky where it passed.

The presence is truly terrifying.

"Celestial Spirit God, what are you up to?" The defender of the Third Ancient Road gave a cold snort, his look carrying a tinge of blame as they have been waiting here for a month.

"I was just held up by something, no need to get angry, am I not here now?" Celestial Spirit God’s body shrunk to a normal human size, and he smiled nonchalantly.

Meanwhile, the defender of the Third Ancient Road glared viciously at Celestial Spirit God: "Hmph~ delayed for a whole month? Do you think our time is worthless?"

What a scoundrel.

"Third brother, no need to be angry, am I not here now?" Celestial Spirit God still smiled as he spoke.

"Where are the people from your Tenth Ancient Road?"

"They’ll be here shortly!"

Sure enough, as Celestial Spirit God stated, someone approached step by step from the distant void.

"It’s Xiao Tianyu!" Upon seeing this, many on the ancient road were astonished, someone remarked: "How is this possible, Xiao Tianyu isn’t dead yet? What’s going on? Could it be that Juechen on the Tenth Ancient Road showed unusual kindness and didn’t kill Xiao Tianyu?"

"Perhaps it’s so!"

Many watched Xiao Tianyu stepping through the void, filled with doubt. When Xiao Tianyu and Mo Qingluan set foot on the Tenth Ancient Road, Juechen had followed them.

The intention was to kill Xiao Tianyu.

Yet, now Xiao Tianyu is alive; how can they not be surprised?

Not only is Xiao Tianyu alive, but even Mo Qingluan is unharmed.

Soon, under everyone’s watchful eyes, the two slowly descended onto the ancient road, and a youth from Juechen Sword Sect spoke: "You sure have a tough life, not getting killed by our Sect Leader!"

"Do you want to die?" Suddenly, Xiao Tianyu’s gaze was as sharp as a sword, domineering and unfathomable, cutting directly through the person who spoke, making that person feel their soul was pierced by Xiao Tianyu’s gaze.

Moreover, a faint trickle of blood came from the eyes of this person.

Even a single gaze from Xiao Tianyu was unbearable for him.

What’s going on?

Others witnessing this were deeply shocked, such a frightening aura, clearly Xiao Tianyu had also gained extraordinary opportunities.

Then, without so much as looking at that person again, Xiao Tianyu retrieved his gaze, holding Mo Qingluan’s hand, and headed toward the central battlefield, causing those who were eliminated to feel puzzled, seeing Xiao Tianyu and Mo Qingluan not only unharmed but seemingly having passed through.

They have qualifications to participate in the final ultimate battle.
