All the heavens, starting with Little Li Flying Dagger

The Ancient Star Road was once a pilgrimage route for all mythical races. Sages from all races would travel from the eight wastelands of the universe to the Ninefold Imperial Pass. This was the gathering of all gods to pay homage to one emperor, the Emperor.

Sometimes, the ancient Heavenly Emperor would also travel along the pilgrimage route, tour the heavens, reign over the vast universe, and bestow blessings upon the various mythological races.

Therefore, strictly speaking, it was almost perfectly legitimate for the Heavenly Court to reclaim the ancient path.

"Of course, the so-called legitimate reason must be proven by force."

Wang Gan took a deep breath.

"But with the current strength of our Heavenly Court, if we were to mobilize all our forces and combine them with the Eternal Warship, it seems not impossible for us to directly reclaim the Ancient Road."

Wang Gan possessed a combat power approaching that of a supreme being, along with numerous imperial weapons. No matter how strong the ancient life stars and geniuses along the Starry Sky Ancient Road were, they could not withstand him.

Upon realizing this, Wang Gan did not hesitate and immediately spread the news that the Heavenly Court would reopen the ancient starry road.

It was said that the Heavenly Court would reclaim the ancient starry road and would only recruit the most outstanding geniuses and great saints to go there.

"Reopen the Ancient Starry Sky Road?! Isn't the Ancient Starry Sky Road an imperial road that only the most outstanding geniuses of the Big Dipper can go to?"

"The Starry Sky Ancient Road was originally built by the ancient Heavenly Court as a route to patrol the ancient life-bearing planets. It later evolved into the Imperial Road. Therefore, if the Heavenly Court can take over the Starry Sky Ancient Road, it will be considered the rightful Heavenly Court!"

"To reclaim the ancient star path, how many geniuses and ancient life stars would we have to contend with?! Even gathering the power of the Big Dipper might not guarantee success!"

"But the Eastern Lord of the Heavenly Court has already subdued the two great imperial stars, Ziwei and Yongheng. This time, subduing the Ancient Star Road is not impossible."

Immediately, various forces discussed the matter, realizing that this was both a challenge and an opportunity.

The Ancient Starry Road was originally only accessible to the most outstanding geniuses of the Big Dipper, but now, Wang Gan's Heavenly Court has opened its doors wide, intending to lead a group of top Great Saints to explore the ancient road.

The ancient road is rich in Dao principles and array patterns left by the Great Emperor, as well as resources from many ancient life stars. For those Great Saints who can hardly move an inch, what a heaven-defying opportunity it is!
In an instant, the saints' thoughts were stirred. For those great saints, if they could share the opportunity of the ancient path, they might be able to advance even further!
Many prodigies were even more excited. Entering the ancient road was like having one foot in the Emperor's Road. With the Heavenly Court's support, even if they couldn't become emperors, they could still go much further on the Emperor's Road!

Wang Gan wasn't idle either; he distributed the Eternal Fleet to the Heavenly Court members, allowing them to refine and familiarize themselves with it.
Although the Eternal Fleet is powerful, its large formation is enough to fight against a Quasi-Emperor, but it needs enough manpower to make full use of its strong technological and numerical advantages. Even three or four Great Saints, with their divine thoughts as vast as the starry sea, would find it difficult to drive such a large fleet.

On the other side, they took out the three eternal quasi-emperor mechs and distributed them to the saints of the Heavenly Court, namely Great Sage Wei Yi, the Old Madman, and the Divine Knight.

The supreme immortal robes flowed, engraved with various runes and divine chains of the Dao, exuding wisps of the Great Sage's majesty. Forged from the Great Luo Silver Essence through countless hammerings, they flowed with boundless immortal light, a combination of the Great Dao runes and technology.

The mecha is an all-in-one weapon for offense and defense, and it is not just a quasi-emperor weapon. It is stronger than ordinary quasi-emperor weapons. If the Great Sage were to enter it, he could unleash power comparable to a half-step quasi-emperor!
Previously, when the Eternal Ancient Star revived the Quasi-Emperor Immortal Robe, it might have actually delayed the power of the Emperor Weapon if it hadn't been for the Great Sage's manipulation.

"Sometimes technology has a greater advantage than spiritual practice!"

Wang Gan's lips curled into a smile.

With this Quasi-Emperor Immortal Robe, plus the Great Sage cultivation of Old Madman and Wei Yi, they are almost comparable to half-step Quasi-Emperors.

The Divine Knight had only recently broken through to the Saint King realm, so his cultivation level was still somewhat lacking. However, wearing the Quasi-Emperor Immortal Robe, he was comparable to a top-tier Great Saint.

In this way, the Heavenly Court's top combat power has been further enhanced. With the suppression of the imperial soldiers and the near-supreme cultivation of the Great Perfection Holy Corpse, it is not afraid to even confront the God Organization at its peak.

Zhongzhou, Qishi Prefecture.

In the Big Dipper, the Five-Colored Altar of the Starry Sky Ancient Road is managed by the Qishi Mansion, which selects the most outstanding talents for the Big Dipper. Normally, only the top eight talents of the Big Dipper are allowed to enter the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

This is also the greatest function of Qishi Mansion.

But this time, something unexpected happened.
Boom boom boom!

Looking at the overwhelming fleet, led by Wang Gan and including figures of Great Sage level, the Lord of Qishi Mansion couldn't help but feel terrified.

Is the Heavenly Court really serious? Are they really going to reclaim the Ancient Star Road and attack the ancient life-bearing planets along the way?
Whose prodigy is this, becoming the Heavenly Emperor before even reaching the Emperor level?! The Lord of the Qishi Mansion said that in all his years of life, and in all the years since the Qishi Mansion was founded, he had never seen anything so bizarre.

But he's just a minor saint; even if he disagrees this time, it's useless.

"The Eastern Venerable, the Emperor Venerable, the fleet, and the five-colored altar are all ready."

One of the fleet's captains spoke with utmost respect.
Wang Gan nodded and stepped toward the magnificent and splendid ancient warship.

The vast universe is boundless, and there are countless ancient paths in the starry sky. There are ancient paths of the human race, ancient paths of the demon race, and even ancient paths of the Holy Spirit race. Cultivators of almost every race tend to follow their own ancient paths to avoid losing their way.

But all the ancient roads in the starry sky have the same end: the ancient celestial court of the past, the ninefold imperial pass.

In the mythological era, these star paths all shared a common name: the pilgrimage route.

The pretext for Wang Gan and his group's departure this time was...
"Emperor Ye Tian personally leads the expedition!"

Ye Fan, standing to the side, still felt somewhat uneasy. Looking at the four words "Imperial Conquest" blatantly displayed on the warship, along with the large character "Ye," he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"Are you really going to use my name?"

Ye Fan took a deep breath.

"Logically speaking, I'm just a Dao-Slaying King."

Wang Gan remained calm.

"But you have the Cauldron of Immortality."

Ye Fan still wanted to argue his point; he didn't want to take the blame for such a huge mistake.

If he fails, his reputation will probably be ruined throughout the entire Starry Sky faction!

"I am not the strongest prodigy in the Beidou system yet!"

"You possess the Cauldron for Ascension to Immortality."

"My sacred body is flawed, and I cannot become an emperor."

"You possess the Cauldron for Ascension to Immortality."

"I"

Ye Fan sighed deeply. Since he couldn't resist, he could only accept it.

Oh well, he couldn't beat him in a fight or argue with him. Ye Fan felt that although his cultivation in Beidou had been relatively smooth, he still felt a bit frustrated.
"Sure enough, this guy keeps it on even when he doesn't turn it off."

"It's impossible for my Holy Body to surpass this guy."

Ye Fan's mind stirred.
"But a congenital sacred body and Dao embryo doesn't seem impossible!"

Ye Fan remembered that not long ago he had entered into a marriage agreement with Zixia, the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion Holy Land. If he could give birth to a child with an innate holy body, a heaven-defying existence like the Great Emperor Wushi, wouldn't that be enough to curb Wang Gan's arrogance?
"I'll just go straight for the small one!"

After cultivating for so many years, Ye Fan has come to understand many things.

Since this generation can't suppress Wang Gan, his next generation might be his only chance! (End of Chapter)
