Chapter 272 Undercurrent
The ancient road of the human race is full of formidable passes, each capable of blocking a large number of cultivators, and even ordinary saints cannot go deep into it.

Only by becoming a Saint King or even a Great Saint can one break through the ancient path of humanity and compete for the unique opportunity to attain enlightenment.

However, the paths to becoming a Great Emperor are never parallel; any cultivator aspiring to become a Great Emperor is an adversary to another, and a great battle will eventually ensue.

With so many talented individuals entering the city together, friction is bound to occur. Many people are watching Qi Zhe at the city gate with inscrutable expressions and shifty eyes.

"I wonder what his constitution is."

Some people were reminiscing about the details of Qi Zhe's actions, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't guess what kind of physique he had.

It's not easy to collide with a body that has a super body; an ordinary physique would be completely destroyed at the first touch, and it's amazing if someone can withstand ten moves.

However, Qi Zhe was able to injure the Overlord Body and cause it to bleed. These amazing feats inevitably led many people to speculate.

But Qi Zhe ignored all the stares and was scanning the cultivators entering the city, constantly searching for someone extraordinary.

"There are a lot of people." But after a moment, Qi Zhe frowned.

There were at least a thousand cultivators entering the city this time, a gathering of geniuses from various ancient star fields, making it an unprecedented event.

The deity who had passed by in his chariot had already been taken away by the city's powerful figures, and even Di Tian had long since disappeared without a trace, not even revealing his true face.

If there were experts hiding among the people entering the city, they would not reveal themselves, and even Qi Zhe would have difficulty discerning whether there were any experts.

"If I had known, I would have just kept my skills hidden," Qi Zhe muttered to himself as he observed for a long time before giving up.

The next moment, he stopped paying attention to the cultivators entering the city and turned his gaze to the distance, looking at some towering buildings in the city.

There are still many residents living inside this pass, with a variety of continuous building complexes, including teahouses, restaurants, and inns.

Furthermore, there are rules in the city, the biggest of which is that no one is allowed to attack or kill others in the city; if caught, they will be killed.

City guards were currently standing to receive the group. The leader, after surveying the assembled cultivators, said with a serious expression:
"On the Emperor's road, we cannot travel side by side, but within the city, even mortal enemies must cease hostilities. Anyone who secretly attacks will bear the consequences!"

These guards were all extraordinary, most of them possessing the cultivation level of a saint, and their origins were legendary, all of them former prodigies.

His words silenced the many cultivators. Many were so intimidated that they realized they couldn't cause trouble in front of the sage and promised not to make a scene.

Seeing this, Qi Zhe didn't say anything more, nodded in agreement, and left the city gate, intending to find an inn to stay temporarily.

This ancient city is connected to various trial grounds, where almost every cultivator can train. The first trial will begin soon.

Most people would rest as soon as they entered the city, washing away the dust and fatigue, and Qi Zhe was no exception.

I'm really tired.

Qi Zhe strolled slowly along the bluestone street, feeling relaxed and at ease.

He fought his way through the long trial path, battling all the way to this day. He deserves a rest long ago, and now he can relax in the city for a few days.

But Qi Zhe was already being watched. Many cultivators watched his departing figure thoughtfully, each with their own thoughts.

The Overlord was also among them, his angry gaze like a torch, ready to ignite Qi Zhe from afar, and prepared to attack Qi Zhe once the trial began.

"Your best end is to die by my hand!"

Then, the tyrant's chilling voice rang out, like a demonic sound. Qi Zhe paused slightly upon hearing it. "And aren't you the same?" The next moment, Qi Zhe retorted indifferently, not even pausing for a moment, and walked into the city.

Qi Zhe's attitude was clear: if Ba Wang regarded him as an enemy or prey, he would naturally not let him go and would kill him if given the chance.

Qi Zhe's attitude further enraged Ba Wang. The other party treated him as if he were nothing, leaving without even turning his head.

The tension between the two was palpable, even to those who arrived late, who knew a fight was inevitable.

As Qi Zhe entered the city, the commotion behind him ceased to concern him.

Regardless of the stares of others or the roar of the overlord, he would temporarily distance himself from them. Finally, he strolled through the ancient city and began to enjoy the journey.

The streets of this ancient city are like a forest, with green bricks, red tiles, small bridges and flowing water. It only needs a misty rain to transform it into a scene reminiscent of Jiangnan.

For Qi Zhe, this was a place to rest, enough to relieve the dust of his journey and allow him to escape the hustle and bustle of the world in the inn.

Qi Zhe then checked into an inn, packed his belongings, and in a secluded place, reflected on his gains and losses along the way, summarizing the past events.

He has now recovered from the True Dragon Elixir of Immortality, and the large amount of evolution fluid he seized from the Eternal Starfield has helped him regain his life.

Qi Zhe also benefited from this, obtaining some of the original runes of the True Dragon Immortal Elixir, which he used to master a freehand technique.

But the greater gain was about Nirvana. The elixir of immortality from the true dragon restored him before his eyes, turning decline into prosperity and death into life, which was incredibly inspiring.

Qi Zhe was deeply moved and kept what he saw in mind. He often watched and pondered it, and each time he felt that he had gained a lot.

Moreover, he now has a sufficient understanding of his own path and plans to start creating his own scriptures once he steps into the realm of sages.

"I have learned countless things, but few of them are actually useful," Qi Zhe muttered to himself, knowing that his path was to connect everything.

He possessed many ancient scriptures and unique skills of the Great Emperors, and had also obtained the imprint of the Great Dao. He had even practiced the mysterious treasures of the chaotic ancient era.

Qi Zhe once felt that he had learned too much and too many different things, so he had to create his own supernatural powers, which he has been developing and perfecting ever since.

Now he is certain that he has not gone astray, and he is only one scripture away from becoming invincible. Once completed, he will surely rise to great heights.

"With one foot already in the forbidden zone, all that's left is to land!"

Qi Zhe pondered the timing of his ascension to sainthood in the inn, knowing that the barrier of the sacred realm was nothing to him; he could break it with a mere step.

Now that he has arrived at the ancient road, he naturally needs to improve his cultivation. After becoming a saint, the road ahead will be smooth, and no one will be able to stop him.

Many people in this city share Qi Zhe's ideas, and many are preparing to become saints and embark on their journey to become emperors.

Within a day of entering the city, many people were already busy asking how to overcome the tribulation within its walls.

Numerous rumors are circulating that many people want to become saints this time, just as the Overlord is asking the city's guide.

"That guy might also become a saint, and he and the Overlord will inevitably have a battle!" Some people were gloating, knowing that when two strong forces clash, one of them will be injured.

"Everyone knows, he must know, it's only a matter of time." Some people said that Qi Zhe was definitely prepared, and if he could not become a saint, he would choose to kill the Overlord.
