Chapter 827

In the beginning, there were only two kinds of ancient roads. One was the strongest ancient road, which was known as the training ground for powerhouses. The other was the well-known ninth ranked ancient road, which was known as the most mysterious place.

Over the course of countless years, the force that controlled the ancient roads had forcibly added eight more ancient roads to these two ancient roads.

Although there were only eight, the number of small worlds contained within them was innumerable. It could be said that this was a really big deal.

Among these eight ancient roads, the innumerable small worlds had intersected with the original ancient roads. This was the most precious and inconceivable thing.

During this period of time, the body tempering road that had been opened from the strongest ancient road made the force of the ancient road extremely proud. This body tempering road was the original barbarian world, which was extremely suitable for body tempering.

Apart from that, there were also countless Ancient Roads of the Strongest that had been broken open. If one's luck was good enough, they would have a chance to enter the Ancient Roads of the Strongest that had been broken open.

These ancient roads had an extremely important characteristic, and that was that they were extremely useful for cultivation. For example, in the barbarian world, any cultivator who entered would have their physical strength break through to the sixth level.

The other ancient roads were relatively similar. If they didn't have a lot of resources, then they had other precious treasures, or rather strange things.

These ancient roads that had been successfully opened and intersected with the other ancient roads, the only thing that didn't was the hardships that Zi Chen had experienced along the way.

If it was said that Zi Chen had entered the barbarian world and entered the other world with resources through the ancient roads, then he should have obtained the fruits of his hardships. However, if others rashly entered this place, they would have taken advantage of the loopholes of the ancient roads.

The fifth nine ancient road was the first gathering place for all trial challengers. Here, it didn't matter if you were a first-class, the strongest, or a ninth ranked ancient road. As long as you made it to the fifth nine ancient road alive, then you would appear in the first human gathering place.

In front of the human gathering place, there was an extremely mysterious fifth eight ancient road. This ancient road was discovered by a peerless powerhouse in the past. Even among the strongest ancient roads, this ancient road's ranking was extremely high. It was a true land of great opportunities.

After the other party discovered it, they forcibly used their formidable strength to break open this world. Then, they used the power of laws to connect to the other ancient roads.

If a cultivator was lucky enough, they would automatically be teleported here when they reached the fifth ancient path.

If the world of the Barbarian Race was a world that focused on the cultivation of power and belonged to the body cultivators, then this world was an opportunity for elemental force cultivators.

This was because this place produced a special substance that could make Origin Energy purer. Moreover, there were many powerful battle skills that had been lost. If one's luck was good enough and the opportunity was great enough, one could obtain a powerful inherited battle skill.

All of the cultivators who had arrived here had coincidentally arrived at the Fifth Eight Ancient Path, and had come across an opportunity to be teleported here.

This world was large enough and there were many lucky chances. However, there were very few dangers. The only thing they needed to be wary of was the foreign trial challengers.

The number of trial challengers who arrived here was surprisingly high. Therefore, after these trial challengers arrived, they would gather in groups of three to five and form some sort of alliance to resist the other trial challengers.

In this world, there was a silver domain. This was the domain of heavenly lightning. From the outside, other than the resplendent silver light and the lightning snakes swimming around, there were no other changes. Even the sound couldn't be heard.

But as long as one entered this silver world, they would feel a kind of apocalyptic danger. If they rashly entered, even a Heaven realm expert would die.

And in this silver world, there was something called lightning liquid essence. It was said that after swallowing this lightning liquid essence, an ordinary cultivator would immediately become a Heaven realm expert with pure Origin Energy.

And the lightning liquid essence's effect was to temper Origin Energy. It would make the already pure Origin Energy even purer, without any impurities.

This kind of thing was a priceless treasure for ordinary cultivators, but it was also the same for Heaven realm experts. It was said that as long as a Houtian cultivator refined it, they could transform into a Xiantian cultivator. Their combat strength would increase by several times.

As the name implied, a Houtian martial artist cultivated a cultivation method that produced pure origin energy. Like Zi Chen, this was a Houtian martial artist. As for a Xiantian martial artist, they were like Ling 'er, born with a pure spiritual body. As long as they had a suitable cultivation method, they could become a powerful Xiantian martial artist.

At this moment, outside the silver world, there were two groups of trial challengers arguing over the ownership of a drop of lightning liquid essence.

The two sides were both Houtian cultivators, and each side had exactly three people.

"Yan Wu, you have to understand that we asked for this drop of lightning liquid essence first. So, you'd better not go too far," said a burly man coldly as he stared at the youth in front of him.

"Du Ji, are you an idiot? It belongs to whoever asked for it. What do you think the lightning liquid essence is?"

The youth called Yan Wu snorted coldly. "I still say the same thing. It's up to Lei Ming. Whoever he wants to give the lightning liquid essence to can have it."

"Lei Ming already agreed to it. It was ours in the first place. Why should we share it with you?" Du Ji was still unwilling to accept this. The two Houtian cultivators beside him also had ugly expressions.

Clearly, this Yan Wu fellow was pestering them endlessly. He was blatantly trying to steal their things.

Yan Wu glanced at the burly man, disdain flashing in his eyes. "You're merely of the acquired earth element. You're only slightly stronger in defense, but your attacks are useless. I'm letting Lei Ming choose now, so I'm giving you some face. So, you have to accept it."

The Houtian earth element represented Houtian cultivators. It was an earth element technique of the metal, wood, water, fire, and earth elements.

The Martial Heaven Alliance produced Houtian cultivators, but just like other large powers, the Martial Heaven Alliance also had other powers. These powers were tangled up and varied in size. But according to their factions, they could be divided into five factions.

Those were the metal, wood, water, fire, and earth elements. Of the five elements, the metal element had the sharpest attacks, the fire element was the most berserk, the wood element could use wood energy, the water element was mostly female, and the earth element was mostly male. Furthermore, they were extremely powerful, but their defensive power was greater than their offensive power.

In other words, their defensive power was stronger than their offensive power.

Of course, that was only for Houtian cultivators. To outsiders, Houtian cultivators were Houtian cultivators. No matter what faction they belonged to, they were all incomparably powerful.

Of the two factions of Houtian cultivators, Du Ji's side was an earth element cultivator, while Yan Wu's side was a berserk fire element cultivator. The fire element's attacks were not only powerful, but they also contained a berserk flame poison. They naturally had the upper hand against the earth element.

While the two factions were arguing over a drop of lightning essence, a silver-robed youth was standing on one side. The silver-robed youth was tall and slender. Silver light flickered around his body like a silver snake. There was a silver lightning mark on his forehead that emitted silver lightning.

Just by looking at his figure and appearance, he should have been a handsome man with a jade-like complexion. Unfortunately, at this moment, his face was as fat as a pig's head, and there were clear finger marks on his face. He was actually beaten beyond recognition.

In his hand was a drop of lightning essence. This was the liquefied energy of heavenly lightning. It was something unique to the Ancient Path, and it had extraordinary effects.

"Lei Ming, then tell me, who should I give this lightning essence to?" Du Ji's cold eyes fell on Lei Ming. The threat on his face was indescribable.

Lei Ming was in a dilemma. His hand that was holding the lightning essence was trembling. He looked at Yan Wu and then at Du Ji. His mouth moved slightly, unable to make a decision.

"Lei Ming, don't be anxious. Think carefully. Think carefully." Yan Wu said lightly. But the coldness in his eyes made Lei Ming's heart tremble.

Lei Ming was holding the lightning essence now. He was so scared that he didn't know who to give it to. No matter who he gave it to, the other side would beat him or even kill him.

In this place, Lei Ming was extremely cooperative. He would agree to any request, but he was still beaten because there was a situation of snatching.

The fearful Lei Ming was hesitant, unable to make a decision.

Turbulent energy raged from the sky. The sky suddenly broke open, and a crazy murderous aura fell from the broken void.

Feeling this murderous aura, everyone's expression changed. They all looked up at the sky.

A huge black hole appeared in the broken void. A figure walked out of the black hole.

This was a figure whose entire body was covered in dried pitch-black blood, a figure that would make one feel nauseous. It was because there were several layers of blood stains on his body, all of which were left behind after the blood had completely dried up. There were also some pale white substances, unknown as to what they were.

He was holding a long spear in his hand. The spear was already soaked in dried blood. It was impossible to see its original color. There was a black belt around his waist. The head of the belt looked like some kind of black ferocious beast.

This was a human figure whose entire body was covered in filth. The moment he appeared, a nauseating stench was emitted from his body. However, no one present felt nauseous because the murderous aura that surged out from his body made them feel apprehensive and oppressed.

When the black man appeared, his body was filled with killing intent. He was extremely cautious. However, after seeing this place clearly, there was a hint of surprise in his only bright eyes on his filthy face.

Then, he said, "What rich spiritual energy."

Just as everyone was confused, an incredible scene happened in the next moment. With the black man as the center, the spiritual energy in the surroundings started to go berserk. It was like a tornado started to roll.

The endless spiritual energy formed a storm and swept towards the black man. However, as the center of the storm, the black man seemed to have turned into a bottomless black hole. All the spiritual energy that gathered was refined by him at the fastest speed.

Almost everyone present was in the Sky Realm. Seeing the speed at which the black man refined the spiritual energy, they all gasped and sighed.

A hundred meters, a thousand meters, the storm started to spread. It continued for several miles, dozens of miles. The spiritual energy within dozens of miles was rioting because of the black man, turning into tornadoes.

The tornadoes approached from afar. The violent spiritual energy could easily tear apart an ordinary Dan Core Realm cultivator. However, the black man stood in the center of the tornadoes. He was motionless like a rock, refining the spiritual energy.
