Kyushu ancient road!
… …
Dead?
Many powerful Cultivators’ pupils constricted. These two Peak King Realm Cultivators were not simple; they were the most ancient existences in the Chaos Dojo.
They were the most promising existences to Breakthrough to the Quasi-Saint Realm.
Yet, they were instantly killed by a King Realm Cultivator?
It was truly unbelievable. This person’s combat power was truly Heaven-Defying. He was likely comparable to a Quasi-Saint, invincible throughout the entire Chaos Dojo.
Boom!
Lin Dong’s eyes stared in all directions.
An old Daoist cupped his hands and said, “Young Friend, don’t misunderstand. This old man means no harm; I merely wish to come and admire the peerless demeanor of a Thatched Cottage Prodigy.”
“Me too.”
The others all cupped their hands.
No one wanted to follow in the footsteps of the two Emperor Realm Cultivators.
Hmm?
Lin Dong nodded in satisfaction and was about to leave on Little Peng King.
At this moment, he saw a young Cultivator walk towards him, his Face full of smiles, politely cupping his hands in a bow.
“Fellow Daoist!”
“I am the Young Lord’s attendant from the Imperial Clan’s Heavenly Family!”
“My clan’s Young Lord wishes to meet you. Would you be willing to give him some Face?”
The young attendant was very polite. After witnessing Lin Dong’s true strength, he understood the meaning behind his Young Lord’s words: this person was truly powerful.
A King Realm Sixth-level Cultivator instantly killing a Peak Emperor Realm Cultivator.
Killing an enemy across more than a dozen minor Realms—his combat power… surpassed the Divine Forbidden Domain!!
This person’s combat power was not merely not weaker than his own Young Lord.
Rather, it surpassed his Young Lord.
Even if his Young Lord only had the combat power of an Eight-Forbidden Domain, he felt that when his Young Lord was in the King Realm, he might not have been this person’s opponent.
This person, merely in the King Realm, possessed such combat power.
If he were to reach the Emperor Realm, he would likely be Heaven-Defying. Even in Central Province, he would be an unrivaled Prodigy, capable of sweeping through the entire Nine Provinces Ancient Path alone.
“It’s him!”
“The young man from Central Province.”
“I heard his Young Lord is a Young Supreme of the Imperial Clan, very mysterious.”
“This past year, he has swept through the Chaos Dojo. No Prodigy or Prodigy has been able to withstand a single blow from him.”
As soon as the young attendant appeared, various powerful Cultivators began to discuss him, very interested in this Cultivator from the Imperial Clan Dao Lineage of Central Province.
“Hmm, alright.”
Lin Dong saw that this young attendant was quite polite and sincerely invited him, so he did not attack.
Hearing the discussions of the various Cultivators, he quickly understood the identity of the newcomer and was somewhat curious about what the so-called Imperial Clan powerful Cultivator wanted to do.
“Fellow Daoist, please follow me!”
The young attendant walked ahead to lead the way.
Lin Dong nodded, riding Little Peng King, and slowly followed the attendant’s footsteps.
Along the way, Lin Dong learned of their origins from the young attendant—the Heavenly Family of the Imperial Clan from Central Province.
Lin Dong was a little surprised. They were actually from Central Province, and even an Imperial Clan Dao Lineage. That was interesting.
Lin Dong had long heard of Central Province.
It was the most core area of the entire Nine Provinces Continent, where various Dao Lineages flourished, and countless powerful Cultivators resided. Many Great Emperors, revered by all races, had emerged from there.
He heard his Third Senior Brother say that his First Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister had gone to Central Province for training.
Like a hundred rivers converging, all powerful Cultivators, Prodigies, and Prodigies from various provinces would eventually head to Central Province. People all said that Central Province held the secret to Dao Proving.
Lin Dong yearned for Central Province.
With his strength, he would soon be invincible in the entire Azure Province, and it wouldn't be long before he would go to Central Province.
He thought of first interacting with people from Central Province to understand the situation there.
Soon, the group of three arrived at an Ancient Land, with beautiful scenery, like a peach orchard.
The Heavenly Family Young Lord and a middle-aged Dao Protector sat at a stone table, waiting, with some exotic spiritual fruits and good tea laid out to entertain Lin Dong.
“I apologize for not coming out to meet you. Please forgive me, Your Excellency.”
The Heavenly Family Young Lord stood up, smiling kindly, and cupped his hands to Lin Dong.
Lin Dong returned the bow: “Fellow Daoist, there’s no need to be so polite.”
The Heavenly Family Young Lord sized up Lin Dong and smiled, “Your Excellency’s reputation is truly thunderous. Today, I finally have the pleasure of meeting you.”
“The Thatched Cottage indeed produces outstanding talents.”
The Heavenly Family Young Lord said, “I once heard of your Senior Brother and Senior Sister’s renown in Central Province.”
Lin Dong took a sip of tea, observed the Heavenly Family Young Lord, his eyes flickering, and got straight to the point: “May I ask, Fellow Daoist, what is the matter?”
“No need to beat around the bush. Just tell me directly.”
This person had an extraordinary demeanor and a powerful aura. He was at the Emperor Realm Third-level, not weaker than Kunpeng Zi, truly worthy of being a Young Supreme.
“Has Your Excellency ever heard of the Nine Provinces Ancient Path?!”
The Heavenly Family Young Lord’s expression stiffened, but he didn’t get angry and went straight to the point.
Lin Dong nodded, his eyes slightly flickering: “Of course I’ve heard of it. Could it be that the Nine Provinces Ancient Path is about to open?”
He had once read an ancient text that clearly recorded the secrets of the Nine Provinces Ancient Path.
It was a strange Ancient Land in the Nine Provinces, said to have been opened by a former Great Emperor, known as the Trial Grounds for all the Prodigies and outstanding talents of the entire Nine Provinces.
Past Great Emperors had all walked this Ancient Path.
They had all swept through the Ancient Path, stepping on the bones of countless Prodigies and outstanding talents to reach the Peak.
The arrival of the Golden Great Era meant that the Ancient Path would open.
This indicated that the Great Dao competition of this era was about to begin!
The Heavenly Family Young Lord nodded: “Indeed, a Quasi-Emperor in the Nine Provinces predicted that the Ancient Path will open within three years!”
Lin Dong’s eyes flickered. The Nine Provinces Ancient Land was a path that countless Great Emperors throughout the Nine Provinces’ history had walked. Needless to say, he would definitely go.
“Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist.”
“Fellow Daoist, you invited me here, surely not just to tell me about the opening of the Ancient Path, right?”
Lin Dong looked at the Heavenly Family Young Lord: “Feel free to speak directly.”
The Heavenly Family Young Lord tapped the table with his finger and smiled, “Fellow Daoist, since you speak directly, then I will also speak directly… ”
“This Young Lord wishes to recruit you as a battle general to conquer the Nine Provinces Ancient Path together.”
Lin Dong’s power was beyond doubt. Just now, he had also received a message from his attendant, learning that Lin Dong had casually crushed two Peak Emperor Realm Cultivators on the way.
This made him even more excited.
He was determined to recruit Lin Dong as a battle general.
If it had been a year ago, with his Peak King Realm cultivation, he would not have been qualified to recruit Lin Dong as a battle general.
But in the past year, it wasn’t just Lin Dong who had grown. He had also obtained an astonishing Opportunity in an Ancient Land, breaking through all the way to the Emperor Realm Third-level.
He possessed the combat power of an Eight-Forbidden Domain, and half a year ago, he had even slain a Peak Emperor Realm Cultivator.
He believed himself to be no weaker than anyone.
Boom!
Before Lin Dong could speak, Little Peng King immediately flipped the table: “What kind of nonsense is this? How dare you try to recruit my Brother Dong as a battle general? Why don’t you go look in a mirror?”
“Bold!”
“How dare you disrespect Young Master? You’re seeking death!”
The young attendant was furious, erupting with an aura no weaker than Little Peng King’s, and immediately grabbed at Little Peng King with one hand.
The middle-aged Dao Protector standing beside the Heavenly Family Young Lord had deep eyes, and his entire body circulated terrifying power, as if ready to strike at any moment.
“Stop!”
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight.
The Heavenly Family Young Lord raised his hand to stop them and looked at Lin Dong: “What is your opinion?”
Lin Dong stood up: “I will go to the Nine Provinces Ancient Path, but my thoughts are the same as Little Peng King’s. You are not qualified to make me your battle general.”
“Thank you for your hospitality, Fellow Daoist.”
Lin Dong left with those words.
After breaking through to the King Realm, Lin Dong no longer placed fellow Cultivators in his eyes, let alone a mere Young Lord of an Imperial Clan.
“No one has ever dared to refuse the Young Lord’s invitation!”
The attendant was furious and wanted to attack.
Forget it.
At this moment, the Heavenly Family Young Lord spoke: “Let him go. He will beg us for help later. He has offended people from the Saint Fire Sect and will find it difficult to leave alive.”
