Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!

Because Chen Pingping's Boundless Sea was still in the opening stage, they wouldn't head straight onto the road. They hid in the mountains, set up an array, and cut themselves off from the outside world.

Lingyun began talking about the Void God Realm: "The Five Major Heavenly Clans—Zhu Yan, Tao Hu, Fuzhu, Fei, Hudu—strictly speaking, only they can truly be called Alien Races. All other races are just branches extended from the bloodlines of the Five Major Heaven Rank clans. As the ages passed, they evolved into what the Void God Realm is today…"

"That so‑called Heaven–Earth–Black–Yellow ranking comes from this, but it doesn't actually mean much."

"The origins of the Five Major Heavenly Clans are shocking; they're very closely tied to the Divine Clan. There are even rumors that their first-generation ancestors were actually the mounts of Gods, ordered to enter this place to block the Human Clan from stepping into the Heavens and the myriad worlds."

"Secondly, the Heaven Rank corresponds to the Five Secrets: Zhu Yan corresponds to the Boundless Sea, the heart; Tao Hu corresponds to the Endless Land, the liver; Fuzhu is the Cave Heaven, the spleen; Fei is the God Platform; and the last is Hudu. That realm was already lost many years ago, and only the Heaven Rank still records it."

"Back then, Zhengheng and I fought our way into the Zhu Family, Tao Hu, Fuzhu, and Fei, and took their Divine Skills. Only within the Hudu lineage did we find nothing."

Uh!

Hearing this, Han Sanqian's face was full of doubt. He couldn't help but ask, "Senior, something feels off. The Five Major Heaven Rank clans correspond to the five viscera? Does that mean they only cultivate one Secret?"

"I was talking about Divinity." Lingyun glanced at him sidelong.

"What is Divinity?"

"Alright, half‑breed, stop interrupting." Lingyun said, "They have corresponding Divine Skills, and in their respective domains they can push opening to the extreme, even giving birth to the Power of Immortality. That's what makes the Heaven Rank so terrifying."

Chen Pingping grew solemn. "I currently have the Divine Skills of two Secrets. If I fully open them, can I match them?"

Lingyun shook her head. "Hard to say; it depends on how far you go. Zhengheng and I each have two Secrets, and all these years we've still been hiding everywhere, haven't we?"

"…"

"Also, correction—you currently have four Secrets." As she spoke, Lingyun lifted her hand and pressed it onto his shoulder. Radiance burst out. "Heart, liver, spleen, lung, corresponding to Zhu Yan's Boundless Sea, Tao Hu's Endless Land, Fuzhu's Cave Heaven, Fei's God Platform. In the recorded history of the Human Clan, no one has ever obtained four Divine Cultivation Skills. At least, I've never heard of such a thing."

Four great light clusters floated within the world of Chen Pingping's Sea of Consciousness. With just a slight sense, he could guide them out, but unfortunately, what manifested within the light clusters weren't words, but some strange, indecipherable diagrams.

He couldn't understand them.

Lingyun continued, "In every generation, when a Human Emperor crosses the Ancient City and enters the Void God Realm, their greatest goal is precisely this: to open the Five Viscera, cultivate Divinity, thereby achieve their own immortality and evolve the Power of Immortality. And when they risk everything to enter Tianqiong Tower and charge into the Ancient Battlefield, in truth… it's all to search for the Hudu Clan's Divine Skill."

The God Slaying Road was likewise a path they had to take.

Compared to snatching Divine Skills from the Heaven Rank clans, entering the Ancient Battlefield to search for them seemed far safer. First, they could charge into the Heavens in the name of the "Righteous Path." Second, there were more opportunities there. Third, it could save a lot of time and unnecessary trouble.

"Kid, you carry the Divine Skills of four Secrets on you. How far you can go depends on yourself. Whether you can actually cultivate them is your own skill." Lingyun's face was extremely serious as she spoke, then glanced at his Boundless Sea.

It had already been opened to five thousand zhang, covering a small portion of his square‑inch world. Original force was gushing and boiling like water at a rolling boil.

He half‑squinted his eyes and fell silent, thinking of that old friend of his. Although that guy was not very reliable, at the crucial moment he'd acted with him to suppress Zhu Yan, and in the end, despite past grudges, had left behind two Divine Skills.

Shameful!

This Emperor actually judged a gentleman's heart with a petty man's mind.

Lingyun thought to herself, "Next time I see him, I definitely have to apologize properly."

Mm!

If only they could step onto the road together. At least… when the Heaven Rank slaughtered their way over, there'd be someone to be buried with her.

"Pingping, I've saved up a few Original Stones before." Yue Wuxia whispered.

"No need, you keep them." Chen Pingping smiled. His opening of the Boundless Sea wasn't because of the Five Senses, nor something Original Stones could push. It was entirely due to the system's cultivation level.

He paused, afraid Yue Wuxia would misunderstand and think he despised her, so Chen Pingping added an explanation: "You know, I've never been short on cultivation resources."

Yue Wuxia blinked her eyes.

Off to the side, Han Sanqian couldn't stay calm. He really wanted to say, "If you two don't want them, you can give them to me!"

"Come closer." Chen Pingping spoke.

"Ah?"

"Closer. Carefully watch my Boundless Sea, and use the Original Stones in your pocket to open yours." Chen Pingping said. He was preparing to guide Yue Wuxia in opening her Five Viscera.

Over there, Lingyun was still in a daze, looking deeply preoccupied.

Seeing this scene, Han Sanqian cursed inwardly, "What do you take Five Viscera Cultivation for? Something you can open just because you want to?" He didn't think much of it, planning to mock this girl later.

Yet after just one stick of incense, Yue Wuxia actually opened her own Boundless Sea as well. From the Gushing Spring Land, golden liquid spurted up.

I…

Han Sanqian jumped to his feet on the spot, eyes bulging as though he'd seen a ghost. He began to doubt life.

Time passed. In a flash, more than half a month went by. News of Chen Pingping opening golden original force and suppressing Zhu Yan had already spread throughout the Void God Realm, shocking all the major powers, and afterward, everything boiled over.

Many Alien Race powerhouses rushed to this region. For a time, the Eastern Mausoleum became the target of everyone's blades.

They were all searching for Chen Pingping, but up until now, no one knew his whereabouts. They couldn't find even a trace, as if he'd vanished into thin air.

At this moment!

The Demon Emperor Zhengheng, bringing along Lan Yi, climbed up from the Tianqiong Tower's gate and fought his way all the way in here.

Fortunately, Chen Pingping and Lingyun were not by his side, so the higher-ups of several Heaven Rank forces didn't take it to heart, just perfunctorily dealt with him, and when they found they really couldn't beat him, they simply let him pass.

More than half a day later.

A strong cultivator of the Huodou lineage suddenly cried out in shock: "Wait, doesn't that old man look like the one on the wanted notice?"

Inside the Tianqiong Tower there is a wanted list, and almost everyone on it is a Great Emperor who came from the mortal world; among them are Zhengheng and Lingyun.

These two bastards had long ago stormed into their clan, overturned their ancestral land, and dug up their forefathers' coffins.

The Five Major Heavenly Clans had hunted them for who knows how long, and had never even given up…

When several members of the Alien Race heard this, they hurriedly ran over to the Tianqiong Tower's wanted list, stared hard, saw Zhengheng's likeness, and then connected it to that old man who had fought his way in here half a day ago.

In their hearts they cursed "Holy shit," cold sweat pouring down in panic.

They weren't people of that era, but being born into Heaven Rank families, they'd been steeped in these stories since childhood, so they naturally had a strong sense of involvement.

Besides, the duty of guarding Tianqiong Tower was so relaxed that it was hard to accumulate any merit!

They never imagined that a colossal piece of credit had slipped right past under their eyelids, and now it had even turned into dereliction of duty.

...

In the Heavens, Northern Wing.

In the Tianxuan Holy Land, on the Outer Square.

Figures in white flowed one after another, all young faces, red belts tied at their waists, the knotted ends uneven in length, fluttering in the wind, their long hair also tied up with a red cloth strip.

Both men and women were like this.

They were cultivating; some sat cross-legged without moving, comprehending the Dao, while others swung huge blades, sweat falling like rain, their qi and blood vigorous. When their blades flashed, they inadvertently revealed hints of Dao-rhyme, especially astonishing.

There were also those practicing sword dances, spear arts, and movement techniques…

Off to the side, even more people were sparring and exchanging pointers, with many standing around watching, observing the fights with great interest.

However…

On the other side of the square, beneath an old tree, there was a delicate-looking girl, watching the senior brothers and sisters on the square, a trace of forlorn melancholy in her eyes.

Mo Lai walked up from behind: "What's wrong?"

Sigh!

An turned her head and complained, "It's too boring, cultivation is meaningless."

"..."

He didn't dare respond to that.

First, An's Dantian had not yet fully formed, so she didn't need to cultivate; second, she really didn't need to cultivate to be very powerful.

Mo Lai glanced toward the depths of the Tianxuan Holy Land, his tone leisurely: "All the Emperor Sons, Goddesses, Divine Sons, young Masters, Saint Heirs, Saintesses, geniuses and so on who are sent here all want to enter deeper into the Holy Land. There might be something in there that interests you."

An tilted her small head and said, "It's nothing more than those insights accumulated over generations, the experiences and notes left behind by Ancient Emperors, and how Emperor Sons broke through obstacles to verify the Dao. So then, in the Holy Land's historical records, just how many Emperor Sons actually broke through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao?"

Mo Lai's mouth opened slightly, and he suddenly felt that what she said was very reasonable.

Northern Wing had existed for countless years, and so had the Tianxuan Holy Land. From back then, Holy Lands had been defined as places to help them break their shackles.

But in reality, those who could, under the suppression of the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, go against the current and even surpass the suppression of bloodlines to step into that realm…

Such people possessed great perseverance, great courage, great wisdom, great fearlessness, and so on. Whether these dragons and phoenixes among men accomplish something or accomplish nothing—does it really have that much to do with the Holy Land? Is there really such a connection with those so-called insights?

"Perhaps the Holy Land has the merit of guidance," he explained softly.

"Wrong!" An slowly stood up and gazed into the distance: "Every person is different, just as every era is different. We can't march in lockstep, studying the seniors' insights and walking today's path. Maybe, your last sentence has a tiny bit of truth to it, but not much!"

What did that mean?

Mo Lai was a little dazed; why did it feel like this girl's words were getting more and more profound? Wait! He suddenly felt a jolt, his heart giving a fierce tremor.

An, standing beneath the old tree, coupled with that nonchalant expression and what she had just said—just for a moment, he seemed to see a second Chen Pingping.

After a long while, a piece of news spread across the square: the God Slaying Road was in turmoil again, a strong cultivator from the Human Clan had charged in there.

An froze for a second, a fierce premonition rising in her heart. Then she followed the crowd, running over as she went, and shouted like a maniac, "My father has fought his way here, hahaha!"

The people around all gave her sidelong looks, thinking, "Where did this idiot come from? Does she even know what the God Slaying Road represents?"

At the back, the corner of Mo Lai's eye twitched. He hadn't originally thought in that direction, but… An had guided him, making it impossible not to think of Chen Pingping.

Now that the God Slaying Road was in upheaval at this time, the one who came must be Chen Pingping.
