175: Chapter 175 City of the Great Dao

The reason why the Cultivators of the Cangyuan Realm knew there was a Secret Realm here was because a monument was erected outside the Thirty-Six Peaks to record it.

Looking from afar, the City of the Great Dao simply looked like a small kingdom, suspended high in the air.

On that city wall, three thousand Dao Laws flowed down, transforming into a sea of Dao churning in the air.

This giant city was as if supported by a vast sea high in the sky.

The city gates in all eight directions were open at this moment, with a Dao Bridge extending down from each for people to step into the city.

At this moment, the Cultivators of the major immortal imperial clans and Holy Lands were all flying toward the city suspended above the peaks.

However, there were also people who had just stepped onto the Dao Bridge only to be blown away by a ripple.

Xie Wushang rode a treasure boat and flew forward with the Cultivators of various clans.

"The City of the Great Dao was used by geniuses to heal their injuries in ancient times, so wanting to enter the city requires the bearing of a Saint." Female Saint Jiang Ling of the Jiang Clan and Empress Qinghong rode a green phoenix flying chariot, accompanying Xie Wushang in his treasure boat while explaining.

It was precisely Jiang Ling who had just transmitted the news about the City of the Great Dao.

"City of the Great Dao... used for healing people..."

"First there is the Nirvana Sea... then there is the Dao Pool..." Xie Wushang whispered, "This place is indeed not simple."

"According to the bamboo slips obtained by the clansmen, the Immortal-Demon Realm was originally the frontier fortress resisting foreign races during the Archaic era."

Jiang Ling said.

"Archaic frontier fortress?" Xie Wushang's gaze narrowed.

"Legend has it that during the Archaic era, foreign enemies invaded, and countless Great Emperors of our realm guarded the frontier fortress..." Jiang Ling said.

"Among them were the Human Race, Yao Race... and even Demon Race Great Emperors were discovered..."

Xie Wushang listened quietly.

"Demon Race Great Emperors?" Jiang Nianyang's heart stirred, and he secretly kept it in mind.

Unknowingly, the treasure boat had already arrived before the Dao Bridge.

Everyone looked up, and the city was ten thousand meters tall.

The Dao Bridge was ten thousand zhang wide, and its surface was permeated with Chaos Qi, connecting to the city gate as if connecting to a world.

The treasure boat and several flying chariots drove onto the bridge.

Suddenly, Chaos Qi cascaded down, and a force of Restriction enveloped everyone, seemingly inspecting the bone structure of those entering the city.

After the inspection was completed, that force of Restriction vanished, and the treasure boat and flying chariots smoothly drove into the city.

There were also people nearby who did not have the bearing of a Saint and were swept away by the force of Restriction.

"Only those with the bearing of a Saint can enter the city... To think that such a precious city existed in the Archaic era!" Jiang Yupin and the others were shocked.

They were filled with awe toward the city ahead.

"It is said that the Dao Pool can not only help people heal injuries but also wash away one's marrow and cleanse the bones." Jiang Yanzhou wore a fiery expression.

"If I can enter it, perhaps my Saint Physique can advance further and upgrade into a Divine Physique."

He was full of anticipation.

Whoosh!

The treasure boat and flying chariots glided across the long bridge, passed through the light barrier of the city gate, and stepped into the vast City of the Great Dao.

As soon as they stepped into the city, everyone only felt their vision suddenly open up.

Instead, they saw that there were no streets ahead.

All there was was a boundlessly vast suspended divine platform and an endless Chaos Sea.

On every divine platform, there was an emperor battle stage, as well as a giant monument emitting the aura of a Great Emperor.

At the end of these suspended platforms was a Dao Pool carrying a vast sea.

The Dao Pool was like a sea, with misty vapor shrouding its center.

Faintly, one could see that it was subdivided into nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine independent Dao pools.

"These are emperor monuments?"

"There are a total of three hundred and fifty-two emperor monuments?"

"On these emperor monuments, the Profound Truths of the Great Emperors seem to still linger. If one can observe and comprehend them, they will surely gain something."

"To think the City of the Great Dao still has such fortuitous opportunities!" Seeing this, all the Cultivators who entered the City of the Great Dao were shaken.

Because at this moment, they could see that some people were already sitting cross-legged in front of those emperor monuments, silently comprehending the Great Emperor Laws.

Xie Wushang and the others put away their treasure boat and flying chariots, drifting down into the huge drill ground at the city gate, and looked toward the Dao platforms ahead.

They were also startled by the scene before them.

"Jiang Huaijiang of the Jiang Clan pays respects to the Divine Son... pays respects to all Old Ancestors!"

At this moment, a Jiang Clan Saint King flew over, bowing in salute to Xie Wushang, Jiang Bayang, Quasi-Emperor Jiang Lei, Jiang Liming, and the others.

Beside them, Saints from the Ji Clan, Tushan Clan, and Ice Phoenix Clan all flew over to respectfully welcome them.

Inside the City of the Great Dao, the aura of Great Emperors permeated everywhere.

Those emperor monuments made people yearn for them, and the younger generation of various clans wished they could immediately step onto the Dao platforms to observe the Profound Truths left behind by the Great Emperors of antiquity.

The Cultivators of various clans who had entered the City of the Great Dao long ago flew over to welcome them.

The Jiang Clan female who came to welcome them was named Jiang Yuan.

"What is the current situation in this City of the Great Dao?" Empress Qinghong asked.

This Jiang Yuan was unexpectedly a descendant of her lineage.

Xie Wushang also looked at Jiang Yuan.

"Replying to Empress... Divine Son..." Jiang Yuan saluted the few of them and immediately spoke.

"Within this City of the Great Dao, there are three hundred and fifty-two emperor monuments. Anyone who enters this city can comprehend the arts left behind by the ancient emperors among them."

"In addition, there are nine hundred and ninety-nine Pools of Dao..."

"The Pools of Dao are divided into Saint Rank, Quasi-Emperor Rank, and Imperial Rank..."

"The Saint Rank Dao pools... anyone who enters the city can go!"

"If one wants to enter the Quasi-Emperor Rank and above, they must first ascend the emperor battle stage and participate in the Prodigy Battle..."

"Those who win three consecutive matches may enter!"

"As for the Imperial Rank Dao pools... one must win seven consecutive matches..."

"If one ascends the emperor battle stage, the loser will lose their qualification... and can only try again seven years later when the City of the Great Dao opens once more."

"Right now, the previous generation's Divine Son of our clan, Jiang Weiting, is on the emperor battle stage participating in the Prodigy Battle, hoping to enter the Imperial Rank Dao pool, obtain the Imperial Rank Dao Origin Liquid, and heal Great Emperor Liuyang!" Jiang Yuan detailed the rules of the City of the Great Dao.

When mentioning the latter, her expression was fiery.

If there was enough Imperial Rank Dao Origin Liquid, even if it could not help Great Emperor Liuyang live for another lifetime, it could still extend his Lifespan by several decades.

Thus, the Jiang Clan would also have more breathing room.

"A Prodigy Battle, huh!" Xie Wushang's gaze narrowed. "Let's go, take me to take a look."

Xie Wushang mastered countless Dao Law Divine Abilities, so he was not very interested in going under the emperor monuments to comprehend Laws.

He also wanted to go to that Imperial Rank Dao Origin Pool to take some Imperial Rank Dao Origin Liquid to elevate the cultivation of the twenty Revered Masters within the disaster prison bead.

"Divine Son, please!" Jiang Yuan extended her hand, welcoming Xie Wushang and the others.

Xie Wushang nodded slightly and strode forward.

Jiang Nianyang, Jiang Ruoxi, Tushan Qingqing, and Li Hao all followed along.

The two little fellows in the back now also regarded themselves as people of the Jiang Clan and were paying attention to the Jiang Clan's affairs.

Tushan Dieyi, Li Shuangyan, Ji Xiaoqiao, and the others also followed.

Everyone walked to the end of the drill ground, where rows of Dao Bridges extended forward.

The largest one connected to the emperor battle stage ahead.

At the end of the emperor battle stage were nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, and above the steps was the Dao Pool.

At this moment, on the emperor battle stage below the steps, the previous generation's Divine Son of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Weiting, was on the battle stage.

Battling against him was You Qianyu, the ninth-generation grandson of the Great Emperor of the Nether Flame Fire Crow Clan.

Below the emperor battle stage, suspended spectator stands surrounded it one by one.

At this moment, many members of the Jiang Clan looked toward the emperor battle stage ahead with nervous expressions.

Among them, there was also a man with a bruised mouth sitting cross-legged on the ground, healing his injuries.

At this moment, he could not help looking forward either.

This man with blood on his mouth was named Jiang Zhengyang, a Quasi-Emperor of the Jiang Clan. He had gone up to the emperor battle stage just a moment ago, but unfortunately suffered defeat.

Jiang Weiting, who was currently in the arena, was also a Quasi-Emperor, and his talent was even above Jiang Zhengyang's.
