Unity with Heaven and Earth.

In Gu Qingyang’s eyes, the entire Cyan Yang Divine Realm held no secrets.

Even the myriad smaller worlds attached to the Cyan Yang Divine Realm, and countless human-created dimensional spaces, were all within Gu Qingyang’s perception.

In the next instant.

Gu Qingyang appeared in another place.

The vast earth.

The Azure Sky was like blood.

The sight was filled with ruins.

Countless corpses lay on the ground, including powerful beings of the human race, and also strong beings from other races.

Yet these powerhouses had all fallen, turned into ghastly white bones after endless years of erosion, as Gu Qingyang’s gaze was directed forward, where something seemed to beckon him.

Walking ahead slowly.

Gu Qingyang looked at the skeletons, his calm demeanor turned into shock.

It seemed as if an epic battle had unfolded here.

On many of the skeletons, there was an extremely terrifying aura.

These auras.

Varied in strength.

The weak ones were merely ninth-tier, while the strong ones reached Quasi-Immortal, or even higher levels.

Suddenly.

Gu Qingyang stopped.

Before him lay a sword scar spanning across heaven and earth, splitting the whole vast earth in two. As his gaze fell upon the sword scar, Gu Qingyang felt a sharp pain in his eyes and instinctively closed them.

When he opened them again, his eyes were filled with ferocious blood threads.

"Sword Intent!"

Gu Qingyang was inwardly horrified.

This sword scar contained the eternal Sword Intent, left by some unfathomably powerful being. Given his current Dharma Body strength, just glancing at it was nearly unbearable.

Gu Qingyang could determine.

If he stepped into the sword scar’s range, he would instantly be killed by this power.

This Sword Intent was too powerful.

Below Immortal, touch it and die.

Even Quasi-Immortal powerhouses are no different from ants before this Sword Intent.

"This is Sword Intent left by an Immortal!"

"And, at least True Immortal, perhaps even more powerful!"

Gu Qingyang’s expression turned clear.

Leaving a sword scar that remained unscathed by endless time, moreover retaining such terrifying power, demonstrated the horrifying might of the one who left it.

Gu Qingyang had only clashed with the twelfth-tier Demon Venerable Xuan Yin in simulations, facing instant defeat.

The current sword scar would not be weaker than Demon Venerable Xuan Yin of the past.

Ultimately.

Gu Qingyang did not heedlessly cross the sword scar but chose a different direction, avoiding the area where the scar lay.

This sword.

Stretched thousands of miles.

After avoiding the sword scar, Gu Qingyang continued digging deeper.

In this space, there was no trace of life, only a deathly silence, like a tomb of fallen gods.

Decayed and shattered corpses.

Broken and fragmented Divine Soldiers.

And.

Lingering indestructible Dao Rhyme.

During these moments.

Gu Qingyang was even attacked by immortal corpses. If not for his quick reaction, he would have perished at their hands.

"Boom!"

Sword Qi descended like the Milky Way from the sky, heavily striking a corpse. Under the terrifying force, the weathered radiant body of the opponent shattered instantly.

After slaying the corpse, Gu Qingyang showed no joy on his face.

Simply put.

There were too many corpses here.

At a glance, there was no end in sight.

Throughout countless ages, some corpses mutated, transforming into the so-called Fallen Immortals, which was quite normal.

Though there was no Immortal Qi here, there was a pervasive terrifying Dao Rhyme. This mystical force of Dao Rhyme could also fuel the awakening of the Fallen Immortals.

"Path to Immortality!"

"So this is the so-called Path to Immortality!"

Gu Qingyang watched ahead with his hands behind his back. This dimensional space was where he, after mastering the Cyan Yang Divine Realm, discovered the Path to Immortality.

Rumor had it that the end of the Path to Immortality led to the Upper Realm.

As long as one reached the end of the Path to Immortality, they could transform into an Immortal.

According to this theory.

The Path to Immortality should hold numerous trials.

However.

These are matters of the past.

An ancient battle caused the Path to Immortality to break, becoming a bloody battlefield between the Upper and Lower Realms.

Countless powerhouses fell, rendering the Path to Immortality unrecognizable, with no trials remaining, only endless Immortal corpses, and terrifying Dao Rhymes left by strong beings.

And—

Fallen Immortals born from Immortal corpses.

...

Several days passed.

Gu Qingyang persistently moved forward.

Though there was no defined direction in the Path to Immortality, an invisible force guided him on where to go.

However.

During these days, Gu Qingyang faced many dangers.

Numerous Fallen Immortals awakened, attacking him.

Common Fallen Immortals Gu Qingyang naturally disregarded, but many mighty Fallen Immortals forced him to temporarily avoid conflict.

After all, Gu Qingyang entered this place with merely a Dharma Body, whose strength was far inferior to his Essence.

Additionally.

Gu Qingyang had to carefully guard against Dao Rhyme assaults.

Many Dao Rhyme powers left from fierce ancient battles lingered in these heavens, transforming into lethal forces, both terrifying and covert, hard to discern.

Suddenly.

Gu Qingyang stopped.

He looked ahead at the ground where a corpse clad in an Emperor’s Robe stood tall, bearing numerous wounds, with the most severe being a gruesome bloody hole on its chest.

Fresh blood flowed from the wound, not genuinely drying.

"The Divine Martial Emperor was never inferior to anyone, believed he could defy the heavens and Ascend to Immortality, but did not foresee eternal Ascension to be such a scam, Ascension to Immortality, what a farce!"

A line of text etched on the ground before the corpse entered Gu Qingyang’s sight.

The words carried unparalleled dominance, along with unconcealed resentment and sorrow.

"Divine Martial!"

Gu Qingyang’s eyes trembled.

Among the Great Emperors of the Immortal Extinction State throughout history, only one could claim the title of Divine Martial, and that was the founder of the Divine Martial Dynasty, the Divine Martial Emperor.

Clearly.

In his later years, the Divine Martial Emperor walked the Path to Immortality in search of the chance to Ascend to Immortality.

Unfortunately.

He never truly became Immortal but instead fell on the Path to Immortality.

Surveying the injuries on the Divine Martial Emperor, it’s evident he endured fierce fighting before his gloomy demise here.

The Great Emperors of the Immortal Extinction State were all powerful, like the Divine Martial Emperor before Gu Qingyang, the aura remained extremely potent despite years of demise.

Gu Qingyang speculated.

Before his fall, he must have been at Great Emperor Perfection.

If in those ancient times, given his strength, he might indeed have Ascended to Immortality.

However.

With the Path to Immortality now severed, no matter how exceptional the Divine Martial Emperor, he ultimately met a melancholy end, dying with his Dao extinguished.
