"The ferocious beasts here are different from those outside. They have devoured the ancient True God's power, making each one incredibly massive..."

"Moreover, we are suppressed here, and only the original force can be utilized. Ah, if we were outside, I could definitely slap it to death with one hit," said Lin Qianfan.

"Brother Lin, I have a favor to ask," said Chen Pingping.

"Go ahead!"

"Please keep an eye on this girl for me," Chen Pingping pointed to Yue Wuxia. Without waiting for Lin Qianfan's response, he walked straight out.

Lin Qianfan was stunned.

Enormous claws quickly broke through the lakeside, but its body remained within, causing the ground to tremble with each movement.

Before long, it finally crawled out.

It was an Ancient Ferocious Beast resembling a spider, only with a human face on its torso, exuding an eerie charm.

Chen Pingping walked over step by step, his clothes fluttering in the wind. He seemed extraordinarily simple. As he approached the lakeside, he leapt into the air.

Without using original force, purely with his physical body, he punched forward. A majestic power smashed onto the claws, sending them flying away with a thunderous boom.

One strike, done.

The ancient beast fled in terror.

Standing by the lakeside, Chen Pingping gazed at the crack left by the beast and fell into contemplation. After a while, he lifted his head to look at the sky.

The inexplicable throbbing grew even more intense.

Suddenly, a vortex appeared in the sky, resembling a hanging abyss. No... it was a lakeside with rippling clear water, vibrant all around.

Unfortunately, a black sword hung over the lakeside, suppressing everything.

In a trance, the lakeside transformed into a figure wearing a bamboo hat and cloak, exuding simplicity.

He walked across the sky, following which the black sword descended majestically.

The Sword Intent was immense, pressing down on him.

The man in the bamboo hat roared angrily, his cloak flying as he struck the black sword with his fists.

Sadly, the black sword was too powerful, with overwhelming Sword Intent, intense killing intention, and an eruption of Power of Immortality and Power of Order.

Eventually, the black sword penetrated his body.

A sudden white vortex exploded, with countless figures and faces watching from outside the vortex.

They were devout, praying...

They hoped, despaired...

The faces finally coalesced, forming a massive mountain range like a giant dragon roaring, trying to shake off the black sword.

"Daoist Chen, hurry and pull out the sword," came Lin Qianfan's frightened shout from behind.

Chen Pingping remained unmoved, quietly observing the inverted lakeside, having guessed more or less.

The Human Emperor had transformed himself into the Ancient Battlefield, paving a path to the Heavens for the Human Clan.

Here, the Human Clan would encounter all sorts of situations, such as the five viscera left by the Human Emperor, embodying the Essence Qi Spirit of the Human Clan and its willpower.

And the black sword, cut by a God, was suppressing the Human Clan's Essence Qi Spirit, trying to obliterate the Human Emperor's will, aiming to completely sever the Human Clan's path.

Pull out the sword?

How could it be pulled out?

The inverted lakeside belongs to another small world, having long left the Ancient Battlefield.

This is likely the handiwork of the God.

But the Human Emperor's five viscera are too powerful, even though suppressed, they still cannot shake off their reflection with the Ancient Battlefield.

There is always some connection between them.

Is it causality?

Or the endless Essence Qi Spirit of the Human Clan? Willpower?

Chen Pingping smiled and whispered, "Arrogant God, trying to crush the backbone of my Human Clan, forcing us into servitude?"

At this moment, he felt deeply moved.

The Human Emperor of the Mythical Era, having perished for countless years, still paved the way and guided the direction for those who came after.

His willpower is endless, condensed but not dispersed.

If not for the conspiracy of the God, perhaps the Human Emperor would have already attained Divine Enthronement?

It seems the battle witnessed at Jiuning Mountain was just the beginning.

Chen Pingping clenched his fists.

Before long, the inverted lakeside finally calmed down, as did the black sword, and the scene gradually disappeared.

He stepped back from the lakeside, looked at the stunned Lin Qianfan, and laughed, "You are right, the Human Emperor is indeed still alive. His Essence Qi Spirit and willpower remain, and the backbone of the Human Clan stands immortal, no matter how strong the God is, they cannot crush us. The Human Clan will only fight more courageously."

Lin Qianfan's heart pounded, thinking, "Is the Human Clan he speaks of the same race as the Human Clan I understand?"

He was born among the Heavens and had seen countless humans, but... not one of them could bring him such awe.

In Chen Pingping, he saw another kind of Human Clan.

That is beyond the reach of the Northern Wing people.

Oh!

Lin Qianfan seemed to have thought of something, sighing lightly in his heart, "Missed, missed, I should have known to walk all the way from the Heaven Martial Continent back then!"

But it was just a small regret.

In the Northern Wing, among the myriad worlds of the Heavens, the barrenness of the human land is deeply rooted, and maybe entering there to experience isn't necessarily a good thing.

"Your insight is profound," Lin Qianfan praised, then ran to the lakeside, looking up at the sky, muttering, "Strange, I've been in the Ancient Battlefield for hundreds of years, but I've never seen that lakeside appear!"

This must be noted.

Watching for an hour.

At this moment, Yue Wuxia also woke up, noticeably excited, her eyes toward Lin Qianfan changing significantly, shouting from afar, "Brother Lin!"

Chen Pingping lifted his head.

Han Sanqian opened his mouth.

The still studying Lin Qianfan was stunned.

"Thank you for your contribution, Brother Lin," Yue Wuxia smiled charmingly, her beauty blossoming. After the fusion of soul incense and sword embryo, her divinity increased significantly.

She had a feeling that once it was revived, the sword would shine bright across the Nine Heavens.

Chen Pingping came over, pulling her aside with him, "When we meet Sir Lingyun, I'll help you get the Old Kui Tree."

Yue Wuxia was delighted, "Really?"

"Mhm!" Chen Pingping nodded, "Stop calling him Brother Lin, call him Brother Lin."

"Okay!" She smiled blissfully, not sure what she was so happy about...

Han Sanqian hurried to catch up, muttering in his heart, "This girl, she's quite something, isn't she?"

One "Brother Lin" directly broke Chen Pingping's defense.

Lin Qianfan exclaimed, "Wait for me, Daoist Chen!"

Han Sanqian glanced at him, with a strange expression. There were three people here, yet he kept calling him Daoist Chen.

......

Subsequently, the four traveled together.

In Chen Pingping's original plan, he intended to find the Human Emperor's five viscera, to see if the senior had left anything.

But after the first one, he felt it was unnecessary.

The five viscera were not the key.

The Divine Skill from the ancestor of the Huodou Clan was what he most needed.

My realm, physical body, Dantian, Sea of Consciousness, all have reached the utmost. Now only the five viscera remain; if I can open them all, walk to the utmost path, then open the divine nature to nurture the God Grid, soon I will have the chance to enter the Divine Tao.

Entering the Heavens, I can directly face off with the Gods.

Chen Pingping silently calculated in his heart. After a while, he lifted his head, "Brother Lin, do you know the ancestor of the Huodou Clan?"

"Of course, I do!" Lin Qianfan smiled slightly, "However, that place is very dangerous, really... Back then, the Human Emperor cut down a God, using its body to refine a terrifying array. And one of the Human Emperor's hands is still pressing on that place."

Upon hearing this, Chen Pingping said solemnly, "Lead the way!"
