Chapter 110 'The Way Cannot Be Traveled Together'

In an instant, Zhang Jiao and Ning Shijun were bathed in brilliant golden light that shot straight into the sky.

Not only did it envelop the entire [the utopia of the mysterious girl] Card Domain, but it also caused the entire Yunlin City to tremble violently, with fine cracks splitting the ground and skyscrapers swaying precariously.

Ning Shijun closed his eyes and concentrated, feeling the ultimate transformation of his body and soul. A sense of profound refreshment swept through him, as if his soul were drifting into the clouds.

Gu Ye's expression changed as he looked up at the 'domain river' above; it was getting closer and closer to them.

No!

It was they who were getting closer to the 'domain river'—the city was flying toward it.

Gu Ye hurriedly looked at Ning Shijun ahead and asked anxiously:

"Uncle Jun, what are you doing?"

"Ascending to godhood!"

The woman standing nearby had a cold expression and a calm, steady tone, yet she spoke those earth-shattering words. Her cool voice was exceptionally clear in the restless air.

"Didn't Uncle Jun just break through to the Legendary Realm? How could he be breaking through to the Mythical Realm so soon?"

Bu Xia's face was cold, but her eyes were filled with adoration as she looked at Ning Shijun:

"The Sect Leader has already comprehended his own Path.

Besides possessing divinity, the most important thing for ascending to godhood is comprehending one's own Path."

"Path?"

"The order of the Heavenly Path is set, and the thousands of Path rules are all predetermined. Once someone achieves the Mythical Realm and occupies a certain Path, that Path belongs to them alone.

If a latecomer comprehends the same Path and wishes to break through to godhood, they must either kill their predecessor to seize the Path or wait for the predecessor to fall so the Path becomes vacant.

In high-level circles, this is also known as 'The Path cannot be shared'!"

Gu Ye looked at Ning Shijun, who was already enveloped in golden light, in surprise.

Then, Ning Shijun's voice rang out, filled with excitement and gratitude.

"Xiao Ye, I have to thank you for letting me create this divine card of Zhang Jiao.

The efforts I've made over the years have yielded massive returns now that I have Zhang Jiao, harvesting a vast amount of the power of faith.

It not only helped me break through to the Legendary Realm but also allowed me to condense a Godhead and comprehend the Path of Faith along the way."

"Haha—!"

At the height of his excitement, Ning Shijun laughed out loud, his voice so bold it made the clouds churn:

"What others cannot obtain in a lifetime, I have within my reach."

"There is no one ahead of me; I will be the first person on the Path of Faith."

As his words fell, the spiritual energy around Ning Shijun erupted. The crystal-like Godhead in his sea of consciousness radiated brilliant light, and a continuous stream of the power of faith poured out, enveloping the entire Yunlin City and beginning its transformation.

Several dozen minutes passed, and even the petals floating in the air were tinged with a hint of golden light.

After drifting onto the civilians, they slowly disappeared, merging into their bodies.

"My strength is increasing!"

Some people jumped up in excitement, and those with serious illnesses were healed by the petals.

The eyes of the people in the slums were no longer numb; a small light of hope filled their gaze.

"Who are you, to dare destroy Yunlin City?"

A sudden roar exploded, carrying the pressure of the Legendary Realm as it echoed throughout the city.

Two figures arrived through the air and stood before Gu Ye and the others. Their spiritual energy was violent, and their gazes were arrogant.

"Legendary Realm!"

Ning Shijun smiled playfully. About to become a god, killing them would be as simple as swatting a fly.

The two saw Ning Shijun radiating golden light, but since his realm was only that of a Legendary Realm Card Master, they immediately dismissed him.

However, their eyes were fixed on Gu Ye behind him.

When they came, their families had sent word for them to go to Yunlin City to capture a person named Gu Ye, saying he possessed the spirit sealing cauldron.

The two saw that it was on their way, so it was easy to handle.

Seeing that Ning Shijun remained silent, the two became somewhat annoyed.

"Speak! Are you deaf?"

"Scram!"

Ning Shijun's thin lips parted as he spoke a single word. Thunder flashed in his eyes, and purple lightning surged within.

"You—"

Before they could finish, the void suddenly distorted, and a sky-covering giant palm condensed. Carrying world-destroying pressure, it crashed down upon the two.

The two didn't even have a chance to activate their cards or struggle; they were instantly crushed into a bloody mist by the giant palm.

Gu Ye breathed a sigh of relief seeing this; he was the only Bronze-level Card Master present.

In a battle of such high realms, even the slightest aftershock was more than he could withstand.

"Haha, so it's a Card Master who has comprehended a Path breaking through to the Mythical Realm.

What an exquisite setup. Thank you very much for preparing this venue for me."

A sharp voice suddenly rang out. A man wearing a hat and a tailcoat, holding a cane and with clown makeup on his face, appeared out of nowhere.

"Allow me to formally introduce myself... I am Cheng Xiaochen, from the Cheng family of Haiyu City."

Clap clap—!

After speaking, Cheng Xiaochen clapped for himself.

He bowed to Gu Ye and the others and smiled:

"Thank you everyone, and welcome me!"

The golden light on Zhang Jiao dissipated as he took a step forward, blocking Cheng Xiaochen's line of sight.

Ning Shijun felt the aura of a similar Path on him.

Judging by his earlier words, he was clearly also a powerhouse about to break through to the Mythical Realm.

"Bu Xia, take them away from here first."

"Sect Leader..."

"Do as I say!"

Hearing this, Bu Xia flew downwards with the two, moving away from the center of the battlefield.

"Gu Ye is here."

A voice suddenly rang out, filled with pleasant surprise.

Several more figures appeared in the void. Bu Xia stared at them warily, but seeing they were mostly in the Diamond Realm,

she couldn't help but sigh in relief and instructed Bu Yao behind her:

"Take Gu Ye away from here and wait for the Sect Leader to complete the ritual."

"Okay!"

Bu Yao had great faith in her sister's strength and turned to leave with Gu Ye.

"Thinking of leaving? Leave the spirit sealing cauldron behind!"

One of the Card Masters shouted, and the giant mantis behind him charged at Gu Ye.

Clang~~!

The sharp sound of metal clashing spread around as a rabbit-shaped swordsman blocked the mantis's attack.

"You all deserve to die. Why must you come to disturb the Sect Leader's ascension to godhood?"

Bu Xia's eyes were filled with bloodlust, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a crazed expression. The Tang sword in her hand was shrouded in waves of black energy.

She raised the Tang sword and pointed it directly at the group of Diamond Realm Card Masters.

Bu Yao led Gu Ye out of Yunlin Second High School and only stopped once they reached the base of the plasma solar tower.

"We're safe!"

"Are you sure?"

Gu Ye looked up at the intense activity in the distance. The void was being torn into black holes by Zhang Jiao and Cheng Xiaochen, and radiant light filled the sky.

From Bu Xia's location came her mad laughter, the screams of her enemies, and the sound of buildings collapsing.

"Guess why I brought you here?"

Bu Yao winked at Gu Ye.
