279: Open

Even as Wang Dong’s son, he could contend with him a bit, relying on that strange Divine Ability.

However, his own talent was indeed a bit lacking.

Even with the System’s help, he still hadn't stepped into the Saint Realm to this day.

Wang Jiayao and Wang Yan were also incredibly surprised.

“Clan Chief!”

“Uncle!”

The two called out, but received no response.

However, both of them knew that Wang Dong must have been aware, so they didn’t say anything more.

Although the person’s identity had already been confirmed,

when the three Prodigies of the Ji Family confirmed the person’s identity,

everyone present couldn't help but show a wry smile.

To shake a Great Saint’s Incarnation with one hand, such a Realm was almost considered an invincible existence on this Ancient Star of Life, wasn't it?

Even if a Great Saint appeared, they could clash with him.

However, unlike their wry smiles, some Families and Imperial Dynasties that had previously been enemies with the Ji Family all looked pale.

Revenge is hopeless!

This Prodigy’s Realm progressed so quickly; he was clearly an old monster of considerable age, yet he acted like a young Prodigy.

If this continues, who can be stronger than him?

What revenge is there to seek?

It’s good that the two Imperial Lords who fought before died.

From today onwards, they would completely sever ties with the Nine Li Dynasty and the Great Yan Dynasty.

For this grudge in the future, they hoped the Imperial Clan of the two fallen warriors would find someone else below.

At the same time, Si Yu, the Divine Clan Celestial Maiden traveling with Mo Fan, also showed a look of shock.

She hadn’t helped Mo Fan from beginning to end.

It wasn’t that their relationship was bad.

Rather, she simply hadn’t expected Mo Fan to suffer such a huge setback.

By the time she reacted, Mo Fan had already directly summoned the Incarnation of Haoyue Heavenly King.

With this Incarnation making a move, her help or lack thereof was already useless.

She just didn’t expect that even with the Great Saint’s Incarnation making a move, Mo Fan still died.

Si Yu looked at the three Ji Family Prodigies in front of her with surprise and uncertainty.

She never expected that these three had a Great Saint’s hidden power behind them. If she had known this earlier, she would have advised Mo Fan against going up.

Although there was a high probability Mo Fan would still have gone up,

but now... Si Yu knew that after returning to the God Race, she would very likely be interrogated.

After all, Mo Fan died.

Life and death outweigh all other matters.

She was observing nearby at the time and would certainly be questioned as to why she didn't step in to help.

Could it be that she was colluding with outsiders?

Even if she could prove her innocence, she would certainly be disliked by Haoyue Heavenly King in the future.

Thinking of her future days in the God Race, Si Yu rubbed her temples with some vexation.

However, it was fortunate that she hadn't participated in the group battle just now.

Otherwise, she would have been utterly annihilated by now.

The Great Saint behind the Ji Family was too strong.

He didn't even say a word, directly erasing Mo Fan from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Taking her along with him seemed like no difficult task either.

This could be considered another kind of luck.

The three members of the Ji Family were now strolling through the Ancient Imperial City.

Wherever they went, countless Cultivators retreated one after another.

They were afraid of being touched and then falling to the ground to extort them.

Behind them was a Great Saint! And a Great Saint who protected his own!

No one wanted to provoke them.

Even those from outside the domain, figures of Emperor-level, similarly retreated far away.

The three members of the Ji Family showed a wry smile upon seeing this scene.

They were not people who bullied others by relying on power.

If that person hadn't been so arrogant and overbearing,

they might not have come into conflict.

However, this also brought some benefits.

The three didn't even have to queue; they directly found a place to stay.

The shopkeeper didn't even dare to charge them... Days passed one after another.

In the blink of an eye, a shocking change occurred above the Ancient Imperial City.

A thick, incomparably massive bolt of lightning descended from above the Nine Heavens, piercing through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

This astonishing sight immediately attracted countless Cultivators.

Only to see an old man with an otherworldly demeanor slowly walking out from above the Nine Heavens.

He stepped on a long river of lightning, within which Dao and laws intertwined, appearing momentarily like a True Immortal standing above the Nine Heavens.

However, everyone knew in their hearts that after this chaotic era, there were no more Immortals in the world.

The old man with an otherworldly demeanor before them was a supreme expert who had lived for countless years, a Garrison Commander of the Human Race.

Those with deep foundations in their Families further confirmed the identity of the old man before them.

“Kongkong Daoren!”

“To think such a figure still exists in the world after countless years.”

“He sealed himself in Divine Source, and now in this era, he is receiving peerless Prodigies at the first stop of the Starry Sky Ancient Road.”

Someone revealed the truth.

After all, the last time the Starry Sky Ancient Road opened, it was this Kongkong Daoren who received everyone.

It was just unexpected that it was still him this time.

This made everyone feel a bit surprised.

One must know that he himself was a Great Saint, having lived from ancient times to today, a living history book.

He stood above the Void Realm, and although he had an otherworldly demeanor, his face was already ancient, and his Qi and blood were incredibly decayed.

However, no one felt that he was weak.

Once his Divine Might revived, his Qi and blood would instantly recover to the vigorous vitality of a Great Saint level.

At that time, in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, no one would dare to face his sharpness.

Therefore, everyone was extremely respectful.

Kongkong Daoren’s gaze fell, showing no specific emotional fluctuations.

He scanned everyone present, then slowly spoke.

“I am Kongkong, the Garrison Commander of the Human Race’s First City.”

“By order of the Human Emperor, the Starry Sky Ancient Road will open. In one month, all beings from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths can enter from this place.”

As his voice fell,

Kongkong Daoren ascended directly to the Nine Heavens on the lightning. Moments later, his figure completely vanished from the world.

Everyone couldn’t help but discuss animatedly.

“Indeed! This time the New Hong Ancient Road still opens in the Ancient Imperial City; I guess I’m lucky.”

“Is that the point? Kongkong Daoren is still alive in the world…”

Countless Cultivators discussed, and in a blink of an eye, this news also spread.

Some people who had descended from outside the domain gathered sporadically and rushed towards the Ancient Imperial City.

It turned out that among the Ancient aristocratic families and Primordial Royal Clans, Prodigies had also emerged.

For a time, Kings gathered, fully displaying the splendor of the Golden Age.

At the same time, Ji Zi of the Ji Family also set off.

In a short time, he arrived at the Ancient Imperial City.

His white robes looked unremarkable.

There was no Qi flowing around him, as if he had completely merged into the crowd.

However, unexpectedly, his appearance attracted the attention of countless Cultivators.

“It’s that young ancestor of the Ji Family! The direct son of Void Emperor, Ji Void! I didn’t expect him to appear in this era; does he want to attain the Dao and become an Emperor in this era?”

Everyone was incredibly shocked.

The direct son of Void Emperor had once suppressed an era.

He left behind a formidable reputation, fighting so fiercely that no one dared to claim supremacy, only to be sealed within Divine Source by Void Emperor because he couldn't attain the Dao in that era.

Unexpectedly, he emerged today.
