Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 287 Horse Trampling the Starry Sky, Old Friends Appear
The dark starry sky was silent, with only streaks of starlight wandering through it, making the traveler who traveled under the stars and moon feel less lonely.

The magnificent city stands tall under the starry sky, its high walls draped with streaks of the Milky Way, and surrounded by countless stars that constantly revolve.

It was so vast that it was comparable to a real star, and countless Dao patterns intertwined on the city walls, exuding an astonishing aura.

"The 40th city."

It is one of the few formidable passes on the ancient road of humanity, and there are two life-bearing stars nearby, where countless creatures have multiplied and thrived.

The city was teeming with cultivators, and representatives from various forces along the ancient road gathered here, making it resemble a bustling immortal kingdom.

"whoosh whoosh"

Countless cultivators flew across the sky outside the city, like comets shimmering with rainbow light, constantly entering and leaving the formidable pass.

"Another ten years have passed." Qi Zhe rode a stone horse, gazing at the fortieth city on the ancient road of the human race from the starry sky, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

His eyes held the vicissitudes of life and the weariness of a long journey, yet his heart remained steadfast.

Since Qi Zhe stepped into the sixth level of the Saintly Realm, he has fought fiercely in the starry sky for ten years and has finally reached the ninth level of the Saintly Realm.

These have been difficult times. Since the trials began in the thirtieth city of the ancient road, they have not been entirely under the control of the human race, and large areas of uninhabited lands exist.

Various alien races appeared, and Qi Zhe encountered ancient races, evil gods, demons, and all sorts of creatures.

He encountered a powerful Holy Spirit, fought fiercely and killed him, and also encountered a Holy Horse in a stone, which he subdued and then rode across the starry sky.

The bloodshed and turmoil along the way made his name known throughout the ancient road, leaving the most outstanding talents of the time in awe and making the older generation tremble with fear.

He is now only one step away from the Saint King realm, possessing extremely formidable combat power, and defeating Saint Kings has become commonplace for him.

It has to be said that his momentum is already established, and even those who are envious have to admit that he is indeed the future master of this path.

"It's time to go in."

Qi Zhe thought of many things and was in a daze for a long time in a state of melancholy. He didn't know how much time had passed before he rode the stone horse towards the fortieth city.

"Damn it! Let me go!"

This stone horse, as a holy spirit, had resisted every day after being subdued by Qi Zhe, but now it could only raise its hooves under Qi Zhe.

It was over ten feet tall, covered in a lot of stone skin, with half of its horse tail broken off, and had been forced out of the stone embryo by people early on.

Now its crimson eyes are filled with rage. Qi Zhe rode it across the starry sky, creating a legend that is very distressing.

"boom!!!"

Boundless silver light emanated from beneath its hooves as it traversed the heavenly avenue towards the fortieth city, carrying overwhelming holy might that shook the starry sky.

An astonishing aura swept across the vast starry sky, as if a powerful saint had reigned over this place, or at least possessed the level of a high-ranking saint.

Some small stars near the giant city fell gently, then exploded into fragments out of thin air, scattering stardust everywhere.

Many passing cultivators shouted upon seeing this, "It's a Holy Spirit! An alien race is attacking the ancient road! Kill it!"

The overwhelming holy might pressed towards the stone horse, and countless cultivators attacked it, provoking widespread anger.

"He's really not being honest." Qi Zhe's lips curled up when he saw this. This stone horse was up to its old tricks again, thinking that it could gain its freedom this way.

But how could Qi Zhe let it succeed? He immediately surged with power, and thousands of divine lights shot out from his eyes, easily separating the void between heaven and earth in front of him.

"Swoosh!" Countless attacks missed their mark, and various divine techniques and Dao patterns were poured into the void, disappearing without a trace. "Please calm down, everyone."

At this moment, Qi Zhe laughed on the stone horse, his hair, shimmering with divine light, fluttering in the air. With a smile on his face, he charged towards the forty cities, ignoring the astonished saints.

"It's Qi Zhe!" Someone recognized Qi Zhe and then vaguely remembered that he had subdued a holy stone horse.

Having traversed the ancient road for sixteen years, Qi Zhe has now arrived at the fortieth city of the human race's ancient road, and his mere appearance has caused many cultivators to be astonished.

Many people stared at his back with puzzled expressions, sighing that a prodigy had reached this point and achieved unparalleled fame.

The guards of the fortieth city stood at the city gate, their expressions somewhat unpleasant as they watched Qi Zhe ride across the starry sky, but they ultimately remained silent.

Many powerful forces in the city had noticed this, and countless people were gazing at the city gate, seemingly anticipating Qi Zhe's appearance.

"He's gotten this far so quickly!"

With Qi Zhe's appearance, some people noticed his current cultivation level and were puzzled for a moment. After calculating the time, they realized that his cultivation speed was too fast.

Qi Zhe was still very young when he embarked on the ancient road of the human race, looking to be less than forty years old, but sixteen years later he has reached this point.

Will he break the record for the fastest attainment of the Great Sage realm?

Many people find this absurd, as ancient history records instances of people becoming great saints at the age of one hundred, leading to speculation that someone in this world is about to recreate the myth.

Qi Zhe was the closest to the truth, causing many forces on the ancient human path to frown, feeling that it was somewhat exaggerated and outrageous.

"What a huge city!"

Amidst the hustle and bustle and various gazes, Qi Zhe sat upright on the stone horse, walking slowly along the bluestone street, scanning the buildings in front of him.

This city is truly enormous, resembling a dock in a starry sky, with countless cultivators of all races lingering there.

The city's commander-in-chief had been following Qi Zhe ever since he appeared, and he showed up directly when he saw Qi Zhe stop in front of a restaurant.

Every city along the ancient road has a commander in charge of security. As soon as he appeared, he warned Qi Zhe to keep a close watch on the Holy Spirit Stone Horse and not let it run rampant.

He then went on to say that in a few days he would open the gate for Qi Zhe and lead him to the next formidable pass, and that he should not cause any trouble in the meantime.

Qi Zhe naturally did not refuse. After warning Shi Ma again, he rested in the city and began to inquire about various news.

He didn't want to be a closed-minded person; he wanted to learn about the current state of the ancient road every time he passed through a city, and he didn't want to be ambushed without realizing it.

"The ancient road is now full of opportunities. I've heard that a Chaos Immortal Land has recently emerged, near the thirtieth level."

There were countless well-informed people on the ancient road; they could even send back news from the front, let alone the rear.

Some say that rare treasures have appeared on the ancient road, perhaps even immortal gold. Now, many powerful forces have rushed to the thirtieth city on the human race's ancient road.

However, this isn't all the news. Some claim that cultivators from the same region as Qi Zhe have already arrived at the ancient road and begun their trials.

"The cultivator from the Burial Ground Star has arrived and discussed that guy with his companions," someone said, adding that the person had revealed Qi Zhe's past on the ancient road.

Qi Zhe, a renowned prodigy on the ancient road, is now a household name and is referred to by many as "that guy".

Qi Zhe was puzzled when he first heard the news and couldn't help but wonder who the other person was and whether he knew them.

"His name is Pang Bo, and he claims to be irreconcilably opposed to Qi Zhe."
