521: The idea of asking about the stele is really arrogant.
Ding!
Killed an enemy in the Saint Venerable Realm Middle Stage, plundering his Lifespan of 240,000 years.
A piece of information emerged in Jiang Yi's Sea of Consciousness!
This meant that the Xuanjin Clan's Saintly-Venerable Old Ancestor had—
Perished!!!
His Primordial Spirit shattered, falling on the spot!
Torrential blood rain descended from the sky, gloomy winds rolled in gusts, and a crimson color stained the starry sky.
The wails of ghosts and wolves echoed, causing the Myriad Dao in this world to mourn continuously!
Those who heard it felt a deep empathy, tears in their eyes, and sorrow in their hearts.
The beings within Profound Yellow Ancient Pass felt something and looked up.
Astonishment! Shock! Horror! Awe... all mixed together!
"Blood staining the starry sky, this is an omen of a Saintly-Venerable's demise!"
"Could it be from the battle just now? It's only been so long, and a result is already out!"
"A Saintly-Venerable has died?!"
"Who won?"
"Was it that Human Race powerhouse who tried to force his way through, or the ancient Xuanjin Clan?"
"It seems to be... the Human Race powerhouse!"
"Hiss—"
"How is that possible!"
"According to my perception, that Xuanjin Clan's Saintly-Venerable!
By virtue of his identity as the clan guarding this place, he even forcefully mobilized the power of the Ancient Pass!"
"He still lost like that?"
"Just who is that Human Race powerhouse? How could he be so powerful!"
"I've seen it!"
"The two Xuanjin Clan members guarding the city gate are already dead, and now a Saintly-Venerable has also fallen!"
"Doesn't this Human Race fear offending the ancient Xuanjin Clan?"
"Or is he relying on something?"
"Completely fearless?"
"It's over, it's over!"
"By doing this, he has undoubtedly offended the ancient Xuanjin Clan to death!
How could he possibly come to a good end!"
"Wait, that Human Race youth hasn't left; he actually came in..."
"Is he really that bold?"
"Let's wait and see!"
"I don't think so; what does this indicate? It indicates that this Human Race—
Either his strength is immense and he is extremely confident, or he definitely has some backing and is not afraid at all!"
"Although within this Ancient Pass, one cannot engage in conflict or attack each other!"
"But this is ultimately the Xuanjin Clan's territory!"
"Once he's inside!"
"It's no different from a lamb entering a tiger's den, voluntarily walking into this cage and prison..."
"If he's targeted, can he still get out?"
"Wait, where is he going?"
"Looking at the direction he's going, could the place he's headed be... the Dao Inquiry Tablet?!"
"It really is! Quick! Follow him..."
Watching Jiang Yi's direction, some beings couldn't help but exclaim in low voices!
Some even unconsciously followed him!
The Dao Inquiry Tablet!
This was a perennial topic on the Starry Sky Ancient Road.
Questioning Dao, Questioning Dao!
Questioning the heavens, questioning the earth, questioning the Mortal World, questioning sentient beings, questioning oneself... What is the Dao, and what is the Law?
Where is truth? Where does heavenly principle reside?
On the Dao Inquiry Tablet!
It carried a wisp of the Great Dao imprint of various ancient emperors and monarchs since ancient times, containing the will of those who had 'attained the Dao'.
One hundred and eight ancient passes, one hundred and eight Dao Inquiry Tablets!
Even after millions of years, they still stood firmly on the Starry Sky Ancient Road.
Seemingly unchanging through the ages, coexisting with the world!
It is said!
That a vast divinity had already evolved within it, and an immortal will slumbered!
Moreover, each one was connected and identical!
There were even rumors that—
This so-called 'Dao Inquiry Tablet' didn't have one hundred and eight copies at all.
It had always been just one piece!
It was only due to some reason that it would manifest in every ancient city and mighty pass.
But no matter what!
From its name, one could tell the extraordinary nature of this ancient stele.
Its symbolic meaning was immense!
It represented the 'interrogation' of countless emperors and monarchs throughout history on the path of cultivation!
Only those with unparalleled Aptitude or an unyielding Dao Heart.
Could leave their name on the Dao Inquiry Tablet!
To this day!
Over these millions of years, those who could leave their name on the stele and have it not disappear.
Were fewer than a thousand!
And these fewer than a thousand beings were all renowned, their names immortalized in history.
Some had even attained the Dao and become emperors, ruling as monarchs!
Standing at the pinnacle of the Mortal World, overlooking the Myriad Realms, dominating a glorious era.
Therefore!
Every Cultivator who embarked on the Starry Sky Ancient Road yearned and aspired to leave their name on the stele.
That represented not just an honor, but also a recognition!
It was a tremendous acknowledgment from heaven and earth, from the Great Dao, and from the ancient emperors and monarchs of the past.
Of their path of cultivation!
Similarly—
It also contained opportunities for good fortune!
Through the 'interrogation' on the Questioning Dao, one could temper their Dao Heart and wash away impurities.
Naturally, it also lacked no dangers!
If one's Dao Heart was not firm and they couldn't withstand the interrogation, they could easily suffer a backlash.
At worst, their spiritual Primordial Spirit would be damaged!
At worst, their own Dao would collapse, and their cultivation level would fall and regress.
It could be said that danger and Opportunity coexisted!
But this still made countless beings ascending the Starry Sky Ancient Road yearn for it, even flock to it.
A Human Race powerhouse at the Saint Venerable Realm, whose exact Realm was unknown, yet capable of easily slaying those of the same Realm.
Seeing him about to head to the Dao Inquiry Tablet, how could they not be curious and eager to move?
They also wanted to see if this Human Race Saintly-Venerable powerhouse could display his Divine Might before the Dao Inquiry Tablet and leave his name!
Even if it couldn't last forever on the stele!
Even for a short while, it would be enough to cause a huge stir.
Driven by curiosity, they followed far behind.
Of course, among them, there were also some with intense malice!
For example, the Xuanjin Clan!
Some of their clan's powerhouses, and Old Ancestors who had awakened from slumber, arrived one after another.
They stared intently at Jiang Yi's figure!
Their eyes were bloodshot, and their Killing Intent surged.
Terrifying Divine Thought surged in the Void Realm, as if about to solidify.
"Not only did he kill our clansmen, but he also dared to enter the Profound Yellow Ancient Pass guarded by our clan."
"Truly arrogant to the extreme!"
"If not for the Restriction within the Pass, this Old Ancestor would surely grind you to dust!"
"Human Race brat, have the guts to stay put!"
"Otherwise, once you leave this Ancient Pass, I will surely kill you!"
"With your fresh blood, I will honor the heroic souls of our clan!"
And there were others!
Those who had come from the Five Continents, following a trace, embarking on the Starry Sky Ancient Road.
After hearing this information, they were once again greatly shocked!
"What?"
"That brat surnamed Jiang dared to force his way into the Profound Yellow Ancient Pass?!"
"That's one thing!"
"He also killed the Xuanjin Clan's Garrison Envoy clansmen, and a Saintly-Venerable!"
"Gulp!"
"This brat is truly audacious!"
"Also... how did he do it!"
"Could it be that this brat has always been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger!"
"In reality, his cultivation level had already reached the Saint Venerable Realm?"
"Quick, send a message!"
"Transmit this news to the Superior Envoy, and let him decide!"
