Too many people are dying in this chaotic world? Then I'll activate the control panel!

"Father!"

As the daughter of the Xuanzu, Fang Yuyao was heartbroken and cried out as she watched her father leave just as he was waking up, and perhaps never to return.

Xuanzu's expression was solemn. His hand, which was stroking Fang Yuyao, paused slightly, and a slight ripple spread from his fingertips.

Suddenly,

Fang Yuyao then fainted.

A beam of light enveloped Fang Yuyao and sent her back to Heavenly Realm Mountain.

"Go to sleep!"

Xuanzu said softly, watching his daughter return safely to Tianjie Mountain before turning around with a deep and weathered gaze as he looked up at the ethereal Heavenly Road.

Just then, the sound of surging waves echoed from the void, and a vast and boundless pressure, carrying the aura of ancient savagery, descended from the sky, sweeping across all directions.

Deep within the spiritual sea, an immense and unparalleled consciousness quietly rose. Immediately afterward, the Whale Ancestor descended from the sky, riding upon a miniature ocean that had condensed the essence of the endless sea. The seawater surged and the waves shook the heavens. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived beneath the Heavenly Road, facing the Profound Ancestor from afar.

The Whale Ancestor, whose real name is the Thousand-Eyed Whiskered Whale, is a supreme being that has survived since ancient times. It is on par with legendary divine beasts such as the Golden Crow and the Candle Dragon, and its power is terrifying and boundless. It is said to be a variant of the ancient Kunpeng, possessing incredible supernatural abilities.

Its shape is extremely strange, with one side of its body covered with countless scarlet eyes, each eye exuding coldness and eeriness, and its gaze seems to pierce through the void and see through illusion.

On the other side of its body grew countless thick, long, jet-black tentacles, which swayed in the wind and were entwined with wisps of chaotic mist, making it look both terrifying and eerie, sending chills down one's spine at the sight of it.

"Fellow Daoist, the deep bond between father and daughter is truly moving. Such sacrifice and protection is truly touching." Whale Ancestor spoke, his voice booming like thunder. With each breath, the surrounding void trembled, and the waves of the miniature ocean surged even more violently. Yet, his words carried a hint of seemingly sentimental mockery.

Upon hearing this, Xuanzu remained calm and composed, but his tone carried a chilling coldness: "Whale Ancestor just devoured countless offspring of his own mixed blood in the sea, refining their life force and origin. Now he can even speak of understanding the kinship of my human race. It is truly rare indeed."

The whale ancestor's laughter stopped abruptly.

It fell silent.

Wow!

With a loud bang

A dazzling beam of light, piercing through the heavens and earth, suddenly struck from the direction of the Southern Wilderness, landing directly in the void near the Heavenly Road. Its brilliance was so intense that it blinded people.

As the light faded, a figure slowly appeared, none other than the ancient totem ancestor from the Southern Wilderness.

This totem ancestor is different from the Xuan Ancestor and the Whale Ancestor. It is not a body of flesh and blood, but a completely divine soul form. Its body is formed by countless tiny but bright points of faith. Its form is illusory, but it exudes a powerful force originating from the faith of all living beings.

The path it took was to shed its mortal body, sever the shackles of the flesh, and draw its power from the offerings of all living beings and the faith of all races. Although it only retained its divine soul, its combat power was in no way weaker than other beings at the peak of the ancient ancestors, and in some aspects, it was even superior.

The ancient totem ancestor revealed his figure, a humanoid phantom formed from countless points of light. Having just devoured tens of millions of creatures from the Southern Wilderness, he was not stained with a trace of blood.

The ancient totem ancestor looked at the heavenly road with a cold expression and said...

"Only one or two spots are left? Who's going in?"

The whale ancestor blinked its thousands of eyes and uttered a sound, "Do we still have to determine a winner?"

Xuanzu did not speak, but slowly raised his right hand. In his palm, a black and gold light slowly rose, and a long sword with a black body and faint gold patterns slowly emerged.

As soon as this blade was drawn, all the light around it seemed to be devoured by it, and the world instantly became darker. A powerful pressure originating from the very source of humanity and suppressing all ages swept across the eight wastelands and six directions.

As soon as the long sword was drawn, all the human beings in the world felt as if they had been subjected to an additional pressure.

This is the sword of the ancestor of mankind!

The Human Ancestor Blade appeared, and the three ancient ancestors stood together in front of the Heavenly Road Gate, forming a tripod. Their auras collided and intertwined, the air seemed to freeze, and fine cracks appeared in the void. The atmosphere was extremely tense, and a heavy and oppressive feeling spread to every corner of heaven and earth.

Many powerful True Monarchs in the world were constantly watching the movements of the Ancient Ancestor. Upon seeing this scene, everyone's expression changed, and they were filled with fear.

If the three ancient ancestors were to fight each other, who knows which area would suffer.

Even Wang Sheng, who had been cultivating in seclusion, had to temporarily stop, look up, and personally observe the situation of these three ancient ancestors across the distant void.

Rumble...

It was at this moment that

A violent fluctuation and rumbling sound suddenly came from inside the Sky Road.

"The final stretch of the heavenly road!"

"Come quickly!"

An aged voice echoed from the celestial path.

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the three ancestors—Xuanzu, Jingzu, and Tuteng Guzu—immediately blazed with brilliant divine light.

Heavenly Road

Is it almost connected?

hum...

At this moment, the road to heaven seemed to widen a bit and gradually stabilized.

It seems to have become able to accommodate more than one or two people.

Without much hesitation, the three ancient ancestors, including Xuanzu, rushed in immediately.

Even if it's a trap ahead, they have to go through it.

The figures of the three ancient ancestors disappeared.

The Heavenly Road became unstable again, with ripples and fluctuations spreading around it.

The crisis of the ancient ancestor's great war has been resolved.

The world became quiet.

A few days later,

The road to heaven suddenly began to narrow.

The spacetime rift is about to disappear.

at this moment,

Almost every living being who knew about the Heavenly Path stared intently at that spacetime rift, their hearts pounding with excitement, unable to shake off the feeling for a long time.

Those below the True Lord level lamented that they were born too late and missed the chance to ascend to heaven.

The experts at the True Monarch level all had grim expressions and bitter feelings.

Although they were qualified to enter the Heavenly Road and could enter as True Lords, they were nothing more than cannon fodder.

But it is precisely this glimmer of hope that causes many True Lords pain and resentment.

The ancient ancestor in that forbidden zone felt even more complicated, with a range of emotions that were difficult to describe.

At this moment, they seemed to have returned to the moment when they were young and faced a choice, torn between two options and hesitant to make a decision!

If the Heavenly Road is real, then they have missed a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, and they will probably have to sleep until death, or be subdued by the ancient ancestors who have advanced to the Dharma Aspect.

boom!

boom!

Just as the Sky Road was about to be completely closed, two earth-shattering sounds suddenly rang out.

Two ancient ancestors, unable to suppress their greed and resentment, abandoned their usual practice of harvesting living beings to enhance their strength. They unleashed their ancestral might, transforming into two streaks of light, and charged headlong into the Heavenly Road.

They had their own plans in mind. The Heavenly Road had been open for quite some time, and the ancient ancestors such as Xuanzu and Jingzu who rushed in earlier had probably already reached most of the Heavenly Road, or even were close to the end. After experiencing numerous dangers, their own strength and origin must have been severely depleted. If they went in now, they could reap the benefits and pick up a huge bargain.

hum!

As the two ancient ancestors rushed into it, the spacetime rift that had existed for many days finally closed completely, and the sky returned to its former clarity, as if the Heavenly Road had never existed.

But the ancient ancestors of all the forbidden areas began to feel uneasy.

Some of the ancient ancestors were filled with regret, feeling that they shouldn't have missed it.

Some ancient ancestors immediately sent an avatar to the location of the Heavenly Road to see if it could still be opened.

Actually,

Just before the Heavenly Road was about to close, ancestral might erupted in forbidden areas across the land, and there were more than just a few ancient ancestors stirring with urges.

There were five ancient ancestors, all wanting to seize this last opportunity and venture into the Heavenly Road to take a gamble.

Ultimately, due to hesitation, fear, or various calculations, the three ancient ancestors changed their minds at the last moment and gave up their chance to enter.

Only the two ancient ancestors who held onto a sliver of hope managed to rush in.

The spacetime rift has closed.

The biggest opportunity is gone.

The remaining opportunities lie in the Imperial Seal and the Immortal Tomb.

But the imperial seal has a pit.

The Immortal Tomb cannot be opened.

Therefore, some ancient ancestors began to plot and prepare to target Wang Sheng and cut off his path.

The paths of both the Ancestor of Humanity and the Ancestor of Beasts have been severed.

Wang Sheng's path would naturally not be spared by the ancient ancestors.

Two days later, the peaceful Central Plains were suddenly greeted by a chilling ancestral might.

A gigantic, illusory hand, obscuring the sky and the sun, silently emerged from the void, carrying earth-shattering power, and slammed down fiercely towards Zhen Ding Mountain where Wang Sheng was located, intending to destroy Zhen Ding Mountain in one blow and give Wang Sheng a warning.

boom!

The moment the giant hand phantom fell.

Wang Sheng remained calm, casually waving his hand, and a condensed spiritual light shot into the sky. It easily blocked the illusory giant hand, and upon impact, the illusory hand instantly shattered and vanished without a trace.

The ancient ancestor who made the move clearly wanted to conceal his identity, and deliberately used a secret technique to cover up the cause and effect, so as to prevent Wang Sheng from deducing his whereabouts and origins.

Therefore, he was very measured in his actions, only revealing limited strength. The power was just enough to shatter Zhen Ding Mountain, but it couldn't hurt Wang Sheng in the slightest. It was purely for provocation and disruption.

After some calculation, Wang Sheng was unable to determine who had made the move.

An ancient ancestor who could also make calculations concealed the cause and effect for him.

On the third day after the Heavenly Road disappeared, there were two incidents of the Ancient Ancestor attacking Zhen Ding Mountain.

Wang Sheng understood.

These ancient ancestors wanted to disturb his mind and force him to lose his composure.

That's a very low-level tactic!

If Wang Sheng were to fly into a rage and, without distinguishing right from wrong, target the ancient ancestor who threatens all forbidden zones, then he would fall into a trap.

Even if Wang Sheng doesn't fall for it, if this disturbance continues, and one of the ancient ancestors launches a full-scale attack, and more than one of them does, and Wang Sheng makes a mistake, then Zhen Ding Mountain will also be in danger.

"Do you want to die?!"

On the fourth day after the disappearance of the Heavenly Road,

Wang Sheng put away Zhen Ding Mountain, shrinking it and hiding it within his own body.

then,

Wang Sheng stood above the Central Plains, overlooking the five regions and eight seas of the world, and coldly rebuked them.

"You've been tricked?"

The ancient ancestor of the restricted area was surprised that Wang Sheng actually dared to be so arrogant and clamorous about the restricted area.
