tarry sky, several streaks of crimson light flashed past.It was Chi Lingkong, his face pale with fear and astonishment, along with several Saint Lords of the Chi Xiao clan who escorted him away."Damn...It has been a year since the Immortal Ancient World closed.

During this year, the Heavenly Immortal Domain underwent significant changes.

The spiritual energy between heaven and earth suddenly became much more concentrated.

All the wondrous places, each a paradise, manifest themselves.

Many old masters who were stuck at a bottleneck suddenly found that they had broken through without realizing it.

This change, first astonishing, then suddenly dawned on people.

"The spiritual energy is recovering, all things are awakening, the imperial path will open!" sighed an elder of a powerful force.

Before the imperial road was opened in the past, there were two omens.

One is the opening of the ancient fairy world.

Another is the resurgence of heaven and earth's spiritual energy.

Of course, this spiritual revival is not a qualitative change, but only a quantitative one.

For those whose cultivation levels are already at the pinnacle, it holds little to no effect.

But for those cultivators below the supreme level, it is of great help.

For young prodigies with abundant vital energy and greater potential, the benefits are even more significant.

Some say this is a way for the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain's will to give back, to raise the overall strength of the younger generation and send them to the Imperial Road to compete for their destinies, thus safeguarding the Immortal Domain.

Under the backdrop of this spiritual resurgence, the younger generation's talents have also begun to surge.

Those ancient monsters slumbering in every corner of the fairyland also sensed this change in heaven and earth, and they all woke up.

For a time, the entire desolate Heavenly Immortal Realm was ablaze with stars. One by one, prodigies streaked across the heavens like comets.

In the past, among the younger generation, the Heavenly God Realm was almost considered the absolute top.

But in this environment, many talented prodigies with deep backgrounds begin to break through to the God Realm.

Even a tiny fraction of these prodigies managed to break through to the Dao God Realm.

These prodigies are mostly awakened ancient freaks or descendants of powerful ancient beings with extraordinary bloodlines.

Even elders mused that, under such circumstances, perhaps in a year or two, there would be demonic prodigies of the Quasi-Saint level appearing.

...and so many people thought of Jun Xiaoyao.

With Jun Xiaoyao's monstrous talent, if he hadn't fallen within the Bronze Immortal Palace.

Under such circumstances, it's almost a certainty to break through to the Quasi-Saint level.

Jun's family kept a low profile throughout the year, with no news released.

Many people believe that, because of Jun Xiaoyao's fall, the Jun family is likely to fade for a long time.

As for figures like Jun Mo Xiao and Jun Ling Cang, these prodigies were also diligently cultivating, each making significant progress in their cultivation.

"I believe the master will not fall..."

Yiyu, Yan Qingying and other followers still firmly believe that Jun Xiaoyao will one day return.

...Unexpectedly, Princess Longji did not return to the ancestral dragon's nest after the Immortal Ancient World closed. Instead, she followed Jun Mulan and others to the Jun family.

This came as a surprise to many.

But then again, Princess Longji had already made an enemy of Dragon Soaring Sky within the ancient fairy world.

If I go back to the ancestral dragon's nest again, I feel a little uneasy.

The Zu Long's Cang Long lineage also wanted Princess Longji to return, but she refused.

Princess Longji's meaning is that even though Jun Xiaoyao has fallen, her promise will not change, otherwise her Dao heart would be damaged.

But only a few, such as Jun Mulan, know this.

The agreement between Jun Xiaoyao and Princess Longji is confined within the Xian Ancient World.

Therefore, what Princess Longji is truly thinking remains a mystery to outsiders.

Time passed, at a certain moment.

All cultivators in the entire Profound Heaven Immortal Domain, as if they had heard a terrifying thunderous roar, seemed to have felt the sky shatter.

At this moment, all the cultivators raised their heads and gazed up at the boundless heavens of the Immortal Realm.

This scene not only appeared in the Wilderness Immortal Domain, but also in the other eight immortal domains, with similar scenes occurring.

Then, amidst the astonished gazes of all.

A vast ancient road, as if materialized from the void, stretches deep into the cosmos.

That was an incredibly ancient road!

That was a bloody path of the proud and talented!

That was a legendary road as well!

The Emperor's Road, has been opened!

The next moment, the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm was in an uproar.

On the side of the desolate fairy domain, countless prodigies rose into the sky like crucian carp crossing a river from every region.

Every genius possesses an exceptionally powerful aura, far surpassing that of before the spiritual energy revival.

Many ancient warships, flying prehistoric beasts, and magical mounts all rose into the air, carrying one by one the peerless geniuses towards the Imperial Road.

The world's heroes emerge from our generation, every genius harbors the dream of proving themselves, their blood boils with passion, eager to carve a name for themselves on the emperor's road, leaving a mark in history and being sung through the ages!

Someone saw the heir of an ancient, long-hidden family appear.

An heir with the bloodline of an ancient race has appeared.

Even descendants of ancient great calamities emerged from their eggs, their ferocious aura shaking the eight directions.

Each and every one of them has an astonishing background.

Of course, some famous immortal powers of the Heavenly Immortal Domain have also sent people to appear, wanting to expand their territory on the Imperial Road.

Someone saw, deep in Mount Wanhuangling, a young figure riding a Fire Phoenix into the sky.

“He is an ancient monster from Wanhuangling Mountain. It is rumored that he is a descendant of a certain ancient emperor!”

From ancient Croc Lake, a terrifying and immense force surged forth. A massive black crocodile rose from the old lake, its tail lashing and collapsing an entire mountain range with a single swing.

"He is a descendant of the Crocodilian Ancestors..." Some creatures from ancient races exclaimed.

On the peak of a mountain, a beautiful woman in a sapphire peacock dress lifted her head to gaze at the Imperial Road, a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

"As long as you follow Master Buddha, how can you not reach the end of the Imperial Road..." The woman murmured, a smile playing on her lips.

She is the proud disciple of Yufozi, a monster from ancient times in Xiaoxitian. She is the direct daughter of King Peacock Daming and possesses a noble bloodline and immense power.

Besides, the ancient Ye family.

On a solitary peak, towering and sheer.

In a black robe, with a handsome face, Ye Ji Jian Mo's reincarnation, Ye Guchen, slowly stood up.

His aura was incredibly profound, his eyes no longer held the ancient vicissitudes they once possessed, but instead became incredibly clear.

Ye Guchen, completely severed the past, reshaped his true self.

Now, he has undergone a stunning transformation compared to before. His aura is profound and unfathomable; even saints would feel apprehensive upon seeing him.

It's time.

Ye Guchen looked up and gazed at the imperial road in the sky.

He raised his hand and suddenly drew the Emperor Slayer, which had been slanted into the ground.

That sword, stained with imperial blood!

Bang!

In the instant Ye Guchen drew out his Empyrean Slayer sword, a terrifying aura erupted. A horrifying sword energy that could shake even the heavens and stars swept across the sky!

At this moment, the Ye family was alarmed, with many elders visiting outside Ye Guichen's seclusion.

Even the ancient monster from the Ye family, Ye Nantian, who awakened in the fairy ancient world, had his eyes shaking with shock.

"As expected of the reincarnation of the Sword Demon. Though he severed his past, his talent and cultivation have become even more profound and unfathomable, almost comparable to that of the former Jun Xiaoyao." Ye Nantian was astonished.

As a freak of nature from ancient times, he felt like he was facing his senior when he saw Ye Guchen.

That sword intent is chilling!

Ye Guchen gently caressed the blade of the Slaying Emperor Sword, its resonant hum shaking the heavens.

"Old friend, you were destined to meet a worthy opponent, it's a shame…" Ye Guchen shook his head slightly.

He was, of course, referring to Jun Xiaoyao.

"As agreed, we wouldn't see each other again. Yet, it seems even harder to meet now."

“I, Ye Guchen, wield this sword seeking only one defeat. I hope the path of the Emperor won't disappoint me.”

Ye Guchen carried the Slaying Emperor Sword on his back and stepped onto the sky with each step.

The long-reclusive Ye Family Sword Demon has been reincarnated and is finally embarking on a journey!endless green leeks.Each one is so fresh and crisp."I came to the right place..."Jun Xiaoyao sighed once more in his heart.He felt that his inner universe, within the Sea of Realms, should be able to...
