505: Demon Gate

A moment later, Wu Ning received messages from several Old Ancestors and immediately flashed towards the Wu Clan Ancestor Court.

When he arrived at the True Martial Peak Grand Hall, the other Old Ancestors had already gathered.

As usual, most were only a Dao Body present.

Their true bodies were either in seclusion or traveling and cultivating in the Myriad Worlds or the Chaos Sea.

"Haha, Wu Ning is here..."

As soon as Wu Ning appeared, everyone's gaze immediately fell on him, smiles appeared on their faces, and they greeted him one after another.

"Greetings, Senior Old Ancestors."

Wu Ning smiled and bowed.

"No need for formalities, sit."

Grand Ancestor Wu Ji said with a gentle smile.

Wu Ning sat opposite Great Ancestor, his gaze subtly sweeping across both sides of the long table; all eighteen seats were filled, and the Tri-Life Old Ancestor had already recovered to the Dao Lord Realm.

Seeing Wu Ning look over, he smiled and nodded at him.

Wu Ning also nodded in acknowledgment.

At the main seat.

Grand Ancestor Wu Ji said in a deep voice, "You should have all received the message from the Ancestor Court, right? Our Wu Clan needs to send out one Heavenly Monarch and three Dao Lords. Who among you has time recently?"

"Count me in. I just came out of seclusion not long ago and happen to be free."

Heavenly Martial Dao Lord was the first to speak.

"Count me in too."

Profound Frost Dao Lord and Wu Sansheng followed closely.

Grand Ancestor Wu Ji nodded slightly. The three were exactly one Great Perfection Dao Lord, one Middle Great Dao Lord, and one Lesser Extremity Dao Venerable.

Now, they were still short one Heavenly Monarch, and his gaze turned to Wu Wudi, Second Ancestor and Weak Water Heavenly Monarch.

"Great Ancestor, let me go."

Wu Ning volunteered, having been in seclusion for so long, it was a good chance to get some fresh air.

"Let me go instead. You little brat are now the number one most wanted target in the eyes of many foreign race powerhouses. It's better to keep a low profile."

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"Then let Wu Wudi, Second Ancestor go."

Grand Ancestor Wu Ji also nodded, then looked at Wu Ning and said, "Ning brat, if you are willing to go, you can also join, but be careful. A Dominator battle might break out soon, don't get targeted by those foreign race Dominators."

"Great Ancestor, don't worry, I will be careful."

Wu Ning nodded in response.

He wasn't just going to the border for fresh air; he primarily wanted to see if he could witness a Forbidden Existence make a move.

Forbidden Existence were too mysterious. As supreme beings who had stepped into the Half-Step Transcendent Realm, he actually had no idea how terrifying they truly were. His previous understanding of Forbidden Existence came from others' words or fragmented sentences in ancient texts.

Only by witnessing a Forbidden Existence's move and gaining more information would he truly have a solid understanding.

Afterward, everyone discussed some major events that had recently occurred in the Heavens, then dispersed one after another.

Wu Ning also returned to Dao Yu Immortal Palace.

He only needed to arrive at the border within a hundred years, so he still had some time. He planned to spend it with the women first.

...

Decades later, an ancient flying boat flew out from the Wu Clan and plunged into the vast Void Realm.

"Haha, you little brat actually dared to go, aren't you afraid those foreign race powerhouses will specifically target you!"

Wu Wudi, Second Ancestor slapped Wu Ning's shoulder and laughed loudly.

"With Old Ancestor accompanying me, even if those foreign race powerhouses want to cause trouble for me, they'll probably have to think twice."

Wu Ning smiled slightly.

"Don't say that, you little brat are a freak. You're stronger than me now. If foreign race powerhouses really come knocking, I, your Old Ancestor, won't be able to handle it."

"..."

As they joked, the flying boat sped towards the Human Race territory border.

Their destination was the critical border stronghold at the junction of the Human Race and Demon Race—Demon Suppression Pass!

Also known as Demon Suppression Ancient City.

It was one of the Human Race's four major border strongholds.

It was a magnificent ancient city personally built by a Human Race Dominator, incredibly vast and possessing supreme power, standing directly in the Boundary Sea, guarding the Human Race border.

The Wu Clan flying boat traversed the Void Realm at extreme speed. After an unknown period, it finally arrived at Demon Suppression Pass.

As soon as they emerged from the Void Realm, an incredibly majestic, almost boundless, towering ancient city came into view.

It stood quietly in the Boundary Sea, like a crouching sky-devouring beast, exuding an extremely ancient and vicissitudes of life Aura, grand and awe-inspiring, intimidating all realms. Even with Wu Ning's cultivation, he felt a faint, almost imperceptible sense of pressure.

He looked up at Demon Suppression Pass, the entire Demon Suppression Pass and the surrounding Void Realm were hidden with dense, terrifying Restrictions and Formations, practically a super war fortress.

Some of the Restrictions and Formations made even him feel a faint threat.

If those Restrictions and Formations were activated, they would immediately transform into a terrifying weapon of destruction.

In the depths of Demon Suppression Pass, an invisible barrier enveloped it, capable of shielding all detection.

There might even be means of Forbidden Existence within it.

Wu Ning was worried about alarming the powerhouses of Demon Suppression Pass and causing unnecessary trouble, so he didn't casually probe.

The flying boat descended towards Demon Suppression Pass.

After the group presented their identity tokens issued by the Ancestor Court, they were guided inside.

Inside Demon Suppression Pass.

Wu Ning raised an eyebrow; Chaos Qi permeated the air, and Dao rhyme was incredibly rich inside, definitely a treasure land for cultivation. It was also enveloped by an incredibly powerful special Formation. If not for Human Race powerhouses, all their cultivation would probably be instantly restricted.

And their whereabouts would be directly exposed.

Even a foreign race Dominator would likely find it difficult to hide.

This should be one of the means of Forbidden Existence.

"Let's go to the Garrison Manor first."

Wu Wudi, Second Ancestor, familiar with the route, flew towards the ancient building in the center of Demon Suppression Pass.

He had lived for a long time, and he had been to Demon Suppression Pass countless times, everything was too familiar.

The others were also not unfamiliar.

Only Wu Ning was visiting for the first time.

"Ning brat, this Demon Suppression Pass is a good place. All kinds of merchant associations and taverns are available, and there are many special treasures from the Demon Race that you can't see anywhere else..."

Heavenly Martial Dao Lord actively introduced it to him.

Although Demon Suppression Pass was a border, it was filled with powerhouses. Immortal Emperor powerhouses were unremarkable, and Dao-Grade powerhouses were everywhere. With so many powerhouses gathered, the abundance of resources definitely far exceeded many top Major Thousand Worlds.

However, Wu Ning didn't care about these. What he did care about was Demon Suppression Pass itself, which was definitely an excellent check-in location.

The group quickly arrived at the Garrison Manor.

This was a simple building shaped like a towering pagoda, exuding an extremely powerful Aura. The mission hall on the first floor was bustling with powerhouses constantly entering and exiting.

Wu Ning immediately saw a giant light screen with lines of missions and reward merits listed on it.

The Garrison Manor would frequently release missions, which Human Race powerhouses who met the conditions could accept. The merits obtained after completing the missions could be exchanged for various resources and treasures.

This not only attracted a large number of Loose Cultivator powerhouses, but the rewards for some Advanced missions even tempted many powerhouses from major forces.

For example, a permanent long-term mission at the top of the light screen was to kill a Demon Race Giant powerhouse and hand over the body or proof, with a reward of 1 to 100 million merits.

This price could even be exchanged for a top-grade Dao Artifact.

In addition, accepting the Ancestor Court's summons to assist in guarding Demon Suppression Pass also came with merit rewards.
