Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning-Chapter 563 - 561: The Trial of the Nineteenth Layer of Hell Star
Hellstar Dojo.
Everyone was still caught up in the previous tremors.
The fall of the three little giants was undoubtedly big news on the Emperor's Road, and spreading it would cause a sensation along the entire path.
And Jun Xiaoyao, using only forty percent of his power, casually slaying the three little giants, would surely become a hot topic among everyone.
"The Jun Family's Divine Son has completed his meritorious deeds; shouldn't he be coming out by now?"
"Hmm, no, look, the Jun Family's Divine Son is continuing deeper?"
"What is he trying to do? Could he possibly want to enter the Hellstar's nineteenth layer?"
"The nineteenth layer, one of the Seven Great Wonders of the Hellstar, is a place of taboo!"
Jun Xiaoyao's actions undoubtedly stirred up yet another intense wave at the dojo.
No one could have imagined that Jun Xiaoyao would actually choose to go deeper.
"The master is so bold!" Even the Nine-headed Lion was speechless.
"Can he make it through the nineteenth layer of Hellstar?" Kong Xuan was still in a state of shock.
Jun Xiaoyao's performance had already reshaped her understanding of strength.
She wasn't sure if Jun Xiaoyao could create yet another miracle.
"Heh, the Jun Family's Divine Son, worthy of being you." Venerable Chongming also smiled and shook his head.
The reason he had come in person was to see Jun Xiaoyao's choice.
Now it appeared that Jun Xiaoyao was indeed still that same Jun Xiaoyao.
If Jun Xiaoyao hadn't gone to explore the nineteenth layer of Hellstar, that would have been the real surprise.
The outside of the entire dojo was already a scene of frenzy.
Meanwhile, in the depths of Hellstar, Jun Xiaoyao walked with his hands behind his back, with an indifferent expression.
Along the way, he also encountered numerous Earth Demons and Celestial Demons.
There were even several Earth Demon Emperors and Celestial Demon Emperors.
Yet, they were effortlessly destroyed by Jun Xiaoyao with a wave of his hand.
The title of Invincible Saint was not just bragging; in this realm, Jun Xiaoyao was nearly unbeatable.
Furthermore, Jun Xiaoyao had the ability to battle opponents of a higher level.
Even the Saint Kings or Great Saints would find it challenging to deal with Jun Xiaoyao.
Finally, Jun Xiaoyao came before a large door.
This door was mottled and dark, as if it had been drenched in blood.
A sinister resentment pervaded the air, like a gateway leading to the Netherworld Yellow Springs.
"Is this the entrance to the nineteenth layer of Hellstar?"
Jun Xiaoyao scrutinized it.
Just a door standing there gave people an uncanny feeling.
Celestial Prides with a slightly weaker Dao Heart would find their minds unstable, and getting too close would mean being branded by some mysterious curse power, dying in extreme pain and madness.
However, Jun Xiaoyao's entire being was enveloped in immortal radiance, with golden brilliance surging.
The exorcism power of the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body was at its peak at this moment.
Jun Xiaoyao was like an Endless Light God, suppressing all evil spirits.
Without hesitation or delay, Jun Xiaoyao decisively pushed open the door.
At the moment of opening the door, Jun Xiaoyao felt a sense of vertigo, unable to see anything clearly as if he had been suddenly thrown into a dark cosmos.
He didn't know how long had passed.
In front of Jun Xiaoyao's eyes, it was as if things suddenly brightened.
Surrounding him were mountains, resembling the base of some influence.
"Senior Brother, it's impossible between us, the person I admire is a peerless hero reigning over the Emperor's Road."
Suddenly, a female voice came through.
A pure and beautiful woman appeared in Jun Xiaoyao's sight.
She looked at Jun Xiaoyao with disdain in her eyes.
Jun Xiaoyao was about to say something but found he couldn't speak at all.
Instead, a voice rang in his ear, sounding like him yet not him.
"Junior Sister, I will walk the Emperor's Road, I will prove to you that I have the ability to protect you!"
Upon hearing this voice, Jun Xiaoyao was perplexed.
Was it really him saying those words?
How could he be such a lapdog?
"Senior Brother, then I'll be waiting, when you're famous on the Emperor's Road, that will be when I marry you."
This senior brother, with determination in his eyes, embarked on the Emperor's Road.
Only then did Jun Xiaoyao suddenly realize that he seemed to have become a mass of consciousness residing in another's body.
Or rather, Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness was gradually merging with that of the senior brother.
"What the hell is the nineteenth layer of Hellstar?" Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
This was simply eerie, like sitting in a movie theater watching someone else's life.
Jun Xiaoyao considered that the nineteenth layer of Hellstar might pose various dangers.
But he hadn't expected it to be this bizarre.
Next, this senior brother resolutely and full of conviction stepped onto the Emperor's Road.
Compared to Jun Xiaoyao, who was the focus of countless gazes, standing above all other beings in an exalted manner.
This senior brother seemed rather ordinary.
He was just an unremarkable outer disciple of a first-class influence.
Walking the Emperor's Road was no different from courting death. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
True enough.
Not long after stepping onto the road, this poor senior brother was utterly crushed by a celestial pride from a top power.
"With you, an ant, wanting to walk the entire Emperor's Road? Haha, simply laughable!" The celestial pride stepped on the senior brother's head, pressing it into the ground.
Then, the entire head exploded!
Jun Xiaoyao felt strange, as if his own head had been crushed.
In the case of a regular Celestial Pride facing such an event, they would undoubtedly go mad.
Jun Xiaoyao, however, found it novel.
Then came a blood-curdling voice.
"Unwilling... unwilling... I am unwilling... why is it that the one buried on the Emperor's Road is me!"
This voice wept bitter tears, bone-deep and full of lament!
Vaguely, Jun Xiaoyao even sensed that his consciousness seemed to be tainted as well.
He seemed to become that senior brother, carrying a grudge, with a desire to curse everything!
"So this is the test of the nineteenth layer of Hellstar?"
At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao had a sudden realization.
Hellstar was rumored to be formed by the convergence of countless grievances from cultivators who fell on the Emperor's Road.
This nineteenth layer was a place where grievances gathered.
These grievances wanted to assimilate Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness.
If that happened, Jun Xiaoyao would fall into endless madness, forever remaining in this place, becoming part of the grievances.
"No wonder those who accidentally entered the nineteenth layer of Hellstar never came out." Jun Xiaoyao understood.
This test, however, at first glance, didn't seem too terrifying.
Yet, Jun Xiaoyao was still naive.
After the senior brother that Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness inhabited had his head crushed.
Moments later, Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness was revived again.
This time, he became a youth of the Demon Race.
This Demon Race lineage was subjected to persecution by some great force.
This Demon Race youth vowed to become strong to protect his bloodline.
Then, he resolutely set foot on the Emperor's Road, seeking the path to power.
The outcome was predictable.
He couldn't pass through many trials before being pierced in the chest by a Human Race Celestial Pride.
"No... I'm unwilling, I want to become strong, I want to protect my race, protect my family and bloodline!"
This youth of the Demon Race was bleeding at the mouth, letting out a despairing cry.
"The strong live, the weak die, you, an ant, want to protect your race?" The Human Race Celestial Pride sneered in disdain.
"Ahhh... I hate it!"
In the end, this youth of the Demon Race exploded into bits, his primordial spirit shattered.
But the endless resentment and curse power lingered.
This is the reality of the Emperor's Road.
Apart from the few astonishing talents like Jun Xiaoyao who shine brilliantly.
The vast majority of cultivators and beings who step onto the Emperor's Road are mere unnoticed waves in the sea.
A small wave comes, and they disappear without leaving a trace.
The Emperor's Road, full of bones, is paved with their remains.
