281: Open

He knew that his Clan Chief relied on the Dao Fire of the world for his cultivation.

The speed of his cultivation was entirely dependent on the quantity of fire.

Therefore, when he saw the Golden Eye Spirit Fire in the Golden Eye Royal Clan's treasury this time, he immediately preserved it.

Now, upon meeting him, he casually took it out of his spatial ring.

As the Golden Eye Spirit Fire appeared on the scene, the surrounding air instantly began to heat up.

Everyone couldn't help but reveal a look of fervent desire.

This was the Golden Eye Spirit Fire, possessing immense power in terms of offense.

It was forged by generations of the Golden Eye Royal Clan members, using the golden eye in their glabella through a special secret method.

Legend has it that it possesses a special Divine Ability, capable of unleashing the Golden Eye Royal Clan's innate Divine Ability.

That golden ray of light was, for many, no less than an ancient secret art.

In fact, in terms of direct power, it was much more potent.

If they could obtain this Dao Fire, even their strength, as Prodigies from other domains or even Emperor-level figures, would see a significant increase.

However, Wang Ming's expression remained unchanged in the face of so many veiled, ill-intentioned gazes.

If anyone truly dared to snatch it, he would simply kill them on the spot.

On this Ancient Star of Life, he had never feared anyone.

Among all the people, the most indignant were the three Emperor-level Prodigies of the Golden Crow Clan, who had only recently been humiliated and forced to write the Sun Codex by him.

Now, seeing him again, they were naturally extremely envious.

However, they dared not make any moves.

Even their Dao Protectors spoke to comfort them psychologically.

This was to prevent them from rushing forward in a fit of anger.

Not to mention they were no match for him before; now that he had more people, they were even less of a match.

Wang Ming naturally noticed them.

He even thought about whether he should borrow some Sun Sacred Fire.

One must know that this type of flame was much more powerful than the Golden Eye Spirit Fire.

If he could obtain it, Wang Yan's cultivation would see significant progress.

However, after some thought, he gave up the idea.

The Starry Sky Ancient Road was about to open, in just a few days at most.

It would probably not be so simple to take down the other side.

Although he was extremely confident, the clan would certainly have given these Emperor-level figures many life-saving items.

If he couldn't take them down in the first instance, a chase might ensue later.

The reason he was able to easily pluck their feathers last time was mostly because their lives were not immediately endangered.

And the reason he put them in the pot to cook was based on the principle of boiling a frog in warm water.

By the time they realized they were about to die, it was already too late to activate their contingency plans.

However, in the current situation, they were already prepared, so it would be somewhat difficult to repeat the same trick.

"Thank you, Young Clan Leader."

Wang Yan's expression lit up, and without declining Wang Ming, he directly accepted the Spirit Fire.

However, because it was not very convenient at the moment, he did not refine it immediately.

At the same time, Golden Winged Little Peng King also walked over.

He immediately saw Wang Hao in the crowd.

"Brother Wang, long time no see. You've come a bit late this time."

Wang Hao looked at him with some surprise.

"You've come out of seclusion?"

After fighting Golden Winged Little Peng King many times, a hint of friendship had developed between them.

To be precise, the two had no enmity; most of their battles were for mutual tempering.

Now, meeting again was like old friends reuniting.

Little Peng King nodded.

"This time, I will definitely not be weaker than you in battle."

"Good, when we meet again on the Starry Sky Ancient Road, I will give you this opportunity."

The two exchanged a brief conversation.

Then, everything fell into silence.

In a short time, the Starry Sky Ancient Road reached the day of its opening.

An old man, dressed in a water-fire Daoist robe with white hair and beard, slowly walked out of the Void Realm.

His eyes swept over the dense crowd in the city, and he nodded, but there was no ripple on his face.

He was about to open the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

Suddenly, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

It's actually an Emperor's direct descendant? Has Ji Zi also appeared in this generation?

Hmm, and a Divine Clan Celestial Maiden.

Oh, this person is a bit strange.

This Physique seems to be an Innate Dao Embryo? But is the Qi and blood on his body too vigorous?

Kongkong Daoren frowned.

His eyes shone brightly as he looked at Wang Ming, and after a moment, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

It's actually an Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo? And it's even entwined with a trace of Chaos Qi.

This person is extraordinary, possessing the potential of a Great Emperor.

However, he wasn't too shocked.

Having guarded this place for a million years, he had seen countless Prodigies and heroes.

Many had brilliant talents, but ultimately fell at the end of the road.

Not everyone is worthy of being remembered by the world.

As if remembering something, a ripple flashed in Kongkong Daoren's eyes.

He raised his hand, and a long spear appeared in it.

The spear was rusty and covered with traces of time.

This was left by a top-tier hero, who became a Venerable in ten generations, unrivaled in his era.

Yet, he ultimately fell at the end of the Emperor Road.

In this world, he had seen too many Prodigies, people of astonishing talent, but no one had ever surpassed this person.

But fate is mysterious, and no one can be certain who will definitely attain the Dao.

He sighed softly.

Then, a whisk appeared in his hand, and he gently waved it.

Suddenly, drastic changes occurred between heaven and earth.

The essence of heaven and earth surged wildly, followed by rumbling sounds.

A series of roars echoed.

Immediately after, an immortal gate seemed to open at the end of the sky, and an incredibly vast crack (rift) arbitrarily swallowed and exhaled the essence of heaven and earth.

As the essence of heaven and earth entered, the rift gradually expanded.

Through the rift, one could vaguely see turbulent currents and Void Realm wind blades everywhere inside.

One could vaguely see brilliant great stars; this path led to the depths of the Universe, and perhaps contained the mysteries of the Universe within.

Everyone dared not look too much.

The moment they looked, their minds were shaken immensely, as if struck by Chaos.

Kongkong Daoren slowly spoke at this moment.

"The Starry Sky Ancient Road is open. This is the first stop for the Human Race."

"Spanning the Starry Sky, traversing 50 cities, it is filled with good fortune. How much you gain depends entirely on your own opportunities."

As his voice fell.

Countless Cultivators in the Ancient Imperial City all rose.

Streaks of brilliant light shot into the sky.

Some drove golden chariots, with nine exotic beasts displaying their prowess.

Some, with a Flying Sword, were incredibly fast, arriving at the very front in the blink of an eye.

Some merged into the Void Realm, reappearing at the very front of the passage.

Everyone had only one goal: to rush towards the rift passage that emanated the mysteries of starlight.

They were afraid that if they entered late, the passage would close.

As time passed, the number of Cultivators in the Ancient Imperial City also decreased.

However, not everyone could enter.

Those whose cultivation had not reached the Half-Saint level did not even have the qualifications to enter.

Let alone contending on the Ancient Road. The seemingly threshold-less Starry Sky Ancient Road, where most entrants become a pile of withered bones, many still had self-awareness.
