Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning
Chapter 718 - 716: Heading to the Black Abyss at the Ninetieth Trial, Ambush En Route, Blood Butcher’s Heir
Jun Xiaoyao leaves the Seventy Gates of the Ancient Road, causing a stir from all directions.
In fact, from the moment he left the Desolate Star, countless eyes had been secretly watching him.
It's understandable, as Jun Xiaoyao is now the most dazzling and attention-grabbing presence on the Ultimate Ancient Road.
Every move he makes would attract the attention of countless people.
Not to mention now, with rumors of an anomaly in Jun Xiaoyao's body, he becomes even more eye-catching.
"What's going on with the Jun Family's Divine Son now?" some Celestial Prides whispered to each other in the shadows.
"Not sure, but observing his aura, it doesn't seem as strong as before." Many Celestial Prides' eyes flashed.
At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao's aura was restrained, with no sign of sharpness, giving the illusion that he had weakened.
"If anyone wants to deal with the Jun Family's Divine Son, now should be the best opportunity."
"That's right, if someone could actually defeat the Jun Family's Divine Son, they would definitely become famous overnight and soar up."
Although some Celestial Prides fantasized about defeating Jun Xiaoyao and reaching the peak of their lives,
they knew well that it was just wishful thinking.
Let alone that there's no certainty Jun Xiaoyao's body has issues.
Even if there were, with Jun Xiaoyao's strength, he could crush a bunch of Celestial Prides with just one finger.
Looking at all those eyes watching from the shadows, Jun Xiaoyao directly ignored them.
After exchanging a few words with Tuoba Zhan, Jun Xiaoyao set off on his own.
Watching Jun Xiaoyao venture alone into the depths of the cosmos,
many Celestial Prides also showed expressions of admiration.
Even in such a situation, there wasn't a trace of fear on Jun Xiaoyao's face, and he dared to travel alone.
Such a mindset is incomparable to ordinary Celestial Prides.
Jun Xiaoyao traversed through the Star Universe at an extremely fast speed.
With his current Great Saint Realm strength, combined with the Void Book and Kunpeng Extreme Speed,
not even the speed of a Starry Sky Flying Ship could compare to his ability to tear through the void.
"The Black Abyss is around the position of the Ninetieth Gate of the Ultimate Ancient Road, a forbidden land that ordinary people would never dare set foot in." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Even with Jun Xiaoyao's speed, it would still take some time to traverse from the Seventieth Gate to the Ninetieth Gate.
Once reaching the Ninetieth Gate, the entire Ultimate Ancient Road is almost at its final stage.
"The true era of great competition is upon us. This generation of Celestial Prides walking the Ancient Road will undergo the greatest trials, but I'm curious, what exactly is the final trial at the end of the Ultimate Ancient Road?" Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.
Just as he pondered inwardly, his steps suddenly halted.
"Couldn't wait any longer, could you?"
Jun Xiaoyao looked ahead.
A group of Celestial Pride figures emerged, eyes filled with probing intent.
Jun Xiaoyao knew these minor figures were just pawns, meant to test his body's condition.
"No matter how poorly I fare, I wouldn't have to use these stray cats and dogs to test me, right?" Jun Xiaoyao chuckled, took a step, and with a wave of his sleeve,
Mana ripples spread out, and the void trembled.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Those Celestial Prides couldn't put up any resistance and directly turned into blood mist.
Jun Xiaoyao continued onward.
Every so often, more people would come out to test him,
various Star Thieves and Fierce Demonic Cultivators all took their shots.
The result was that they were all wiped out by Jun Xiaoyao.
"Did nothing happen to the Jun Family's Divine Son?" some Celestial Prides muttered in the shadows.
"That's not necessarily true; what if the Jun Family's Divine Son is just pretending, and no major figures have made a move yet?" someone disagreed.
After about half a month,
at a certain moment, while Jun Xiaoyao was on the move, he suddenly sensed a feeling like a thorn in his back.
Whoosh!
In an instant as fleeting as a fraction of a second, a figure suddenly materialized behind Jun Xiaoyao.
A blood-red dagger, brimming with the Power of Curse, stabbed toward Jun Xiaoyao's back.
One could say it was a sure-kill strike.
Even a Forbidden Celestial Pride would have a hard time defending against it, being directly pierced by the blood-red dagger.
But Jun Xiaoyao didn't make any moves, and the figure felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire, his actions slowed.
This was precisely the effect of the Fourth Seal of the Forbidden Immortal.
After that momentary delay,
the back armor of the Seven-Colored Sacred Dragon Armor appeared behind Jun Xiaoyao.
Clang!
Sparks flew.
"How could this be..." the figure showed a hint of astonishment.
"You don't seem to be a nobody." Jun Xiaoyao turned around, his expression calm.
Such strength was more than enough to assassinate a Forbidden Celestial Pride.
"Someone wants me to take your life!"
The figure, having failed the first strike, attacked again.
Behind him, vaguely, a Blood Demon Illusion emerged.
The vision of endless mountains of corpses and seas of blood seemed to manifest.
"Celestial Killer's Stab!"
The figure attacked once more, piercing through the void with incredible precision and cunning.
"This technique, you're from the Blood Slaughter." With Jun Xiaoyao's insight, he immediately discerned the background of the attacker.
Blood Slaughter, a notorious assassin organization, is a hidden Immortal Influence in the darkness.
Hiring assassins from Blood Slaughter to test him was indeed a smart choice.
But sadly, it was all in vain.
Jun Xiaoyao reached out, grasping, the void solidified, and chains of Dao Principles pierced through.
With his current Great Saint Realm cultivation, he could invoke the Power of Laws with every gesture, causing heaven and earth to resonate in a powerful explosion.
This Blood Slaughter's heir was strong, but only at the Saint King Realm, still lacking compared to Jun Xiaoyao.
"How can it be that you're unharmed!?" the Blood Slaughter's heir was somewhat shocked.
As the heir of an assassin organization, he knew best the terrifying effects of the Cursed Blood.
In his prediction, Jun Xiaoyao's body should be in terrible condition.
If that were so, he would have a chance to succeed in the assassination, but now it seemed he'd miscalculated.
"Yet another fool trying to measure my strength with shallow insight." Jun Xiaoyao clenched his fingers.
Like the Five Elements Great Mountain pressing down, crushing the Blood Slaughter's heir.
Without any suspense, the Blood Slaughter's heir perished!
This shocked many Celestial Prides lurking in the shadows.
The Blood Slaughter's heir wasn't just any small fry but a Forbidden Celestial Pride.
"Impossible, could it be that the Jun Family's Divine Son really is unscathed?" Many were astonished.
With a sweep of his sleeve, Jun Xiaoyao's figure swiftly tore through space, leaving without anyone able to follow.
Seeing Jun Xiaoyao's demeanor, some Celestial Prides again showed doubt.
Could it be that Jun Xiaoyao is merely pretending to be unbothered?
One could say, Jun Xiaoyao completely baffled everyone.
In the void, Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward, as though crossing space itself, advancing rapidly.
Now, he had shaken off those annoying flies.
Jun Xiaoyao continued onward.
Ahead lay a belt of surrounding asteroids.
Jun Xiaoyao casually traversed through it.
At this moment, the surrounding asteroid belt erupted with countless Array Patterns, transforming into prisons, sealing the sky and the earth.
Simultaneously, an endless ominous aura pervaded, chilling beast roars echoed, as if ancient ferocious beasts were reemerging in the world.
As the Array Patterns wove together, four massive fierce shadows emerged, each one standing tens of thousands of feet tall, towering in the Star Universe like four Ancient Demon Mountains!
Chaos, Taotie, Qiongqi, Taowu!
The Four Great Ancient Fierce Beasts!
