"One or two hundred million years?"
Is this really true?
Originally, Black Bear and White Tiger were already prepared. Even if Chen Xuan said it would take five or six hundred million years, they could accept it and it wouldn't be a big problem.
After all, the path to becoming the supreme being is a long and arduous one!
Then Chen Xuan said it would take one or two hundred million years, which was a huge surprise!
A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!
Chen Xuan spoke seriously.
"Haha, good, as expected of our fifth brother, we believe in your abilities!"
The black bear burst into laughter.
"Oh brother, what's this talk about becoming the supreme being? That's still too far off. Let's see what happens next."
The fourth sister, a fox demon, chided, "Fifth brother, where do you plan to go next? When do you plan to become the Great Emperor?"
Chen Xuan thought for a moment and then smiled and said, "I will go into seclusion first and cultivate the Divine Tear Green Gold and the Heaven and Earth Tai Gold into two small cauldrons."
At this moment, the second brother, Baihu, suddenly spoke up: "The Emperor's Path, which takes place once every 360 million years, is about to open in all the heavens and myriad realms. Fifth brother, will you participate?"
"The Imperial Road?"
Chen Xuan was completely dumbfounded.
This was the first time he had ever heard of this so-called Imperial Road; he had never heard of it before!
"Fifth brother, you don't know about the Imperial Road?"
The fourth sister, a fox demon, asked in surprise.
Chen Xuan shook his head blankly.
Douwu crossed his arms and leaned back slightly. Even though there was nothing behind him to lean on, the posture made it look like he was leaning against a pillar. He laughed:
"Heh, this kid is only a few decades old. Although he has the spacetime law to accelerate his cultivation, he is actually only a few tens of millions of years old. The Emperor's Path left by the Desolate Heavenly Venerable only opens once every 360 million years. It's normal that he doesn't know it."
"What? He's only in his fifties?"
The four black bears were completely shocked.
Chen Xuan explained, "I can accelerate time and space, and I often accelerate my cultivation, so I'm actually quite old!"
Upon hearing this, Black Bear sighed, "Fifth Brother, it's best to avoid using time-accelerated cultivation unless absolutely necessary."
"Because unless we reach the Supreme Cultivation level, our maximum lifespan is 1.296 billion years!"
"You have been using the laws of time to accelerate your cultivation, which is against the natural order. Your lifespan will be consumed even faster. While others can live for 1.2 billion years, you may only live for 700 or 800 million years."
"Because the way of Heaven is to take from the surplus and give to the deficiency, this is the price you have to pay for accelerating your cultivation."
Chen Xuan nodded: "Thank you for the reminder, brother. I will remember it."
While cultivating using the laws of time does increase cultivation speed, in reality, within one's own time rules, the burning of lifespan is doubled!
Therefore, those who are powerful enough to understand the laws of time, or whose families have time-accelerating cultivation arrays, generally do not use time acceleration cultivation lightly.
Even in its lightest state, it will have twice the lifespan.
In more serious cases, it could even be three, four, or even ten times the burn life!
"By the way, what exactly is the Imperial Road?" Chen Xuan asked.
Judging from their expressions, this so-called Imperial Road is not simple!
Furthermore, it even involved the Desolate Celestial Venerable!
"Little girl, why don't you explain this to your man?"
Douwu was clearly too lazy to talk, so he threw the question back to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan hadn't expected Chen Xuan to be so young; no wonder he seemed so clueless about many things.
She slowly explained, "The Emperor's Road was originally called the Supreme Road. It was an ancient road set up by the Desolate Heavenly Venerable during the Boundary Sea Era to select the most outstanding and talented young people from all the heavens and myriad realms!"
"Only those below the Quasi-Supreme level are allowed to participate in the entire Emperor's Road!"
"Therefore, 99% of those who participate in this path are Great Emperor level experts. As a result, this path was originally renamed from the Supreme Path to the Emperor Path. Only a very few extremely powerful Great God Emperors will confidently participate in the Emperor Path!"
"The Emperor's Path has a total of forty-nine levels, and each level was personally set up by the Desolate Celestial Venerable!"
"When you reach the final level, you will receive a huge reward!"
"Basically, almost everyone who makes it to the final stage becomes a supreme being!"
"And this Emperor's Path opens only once every 360 million years, open to all realms and domains!"
"Although the World Tree was later cut down and the Abyss was formed, the Emperor's Path can ignore the Abyss's obstruction whenever it opens!"
Lin Yan paused for a moment at this point.
Looking across the past, present, and future, only the Desolate Celestial Venerable could be so powerful.
The so-called Heavenly Abyss is an insurmountable chasm for the Supreme Being!
But for the Desolate Celestial Venerable, it was a bubble that would burst at the slightest touch!
"By the way, the Eastern Emperor, the Central Emperor, and the Lord of Mount Tai all participated in the last Imperial Road!"
"Actually, in our Yin-Yang Realm, there were a total of thirty-two people who participated in the Emperor's Road last time, but only ten of them returned in the end."
At this point, everyone fell silent.
In reality, every time the Imperial Road opens, each of the major forbidden zones sends out powerful individuals to participate!
However, since ancient times, many bones have been found on the roads!
Countless powerful figures ultimately perished on the path to becoming emperors!
Lin Yan continued slowly, "On the Emperor's Path, one cannot carry Supreme Dao Artifacts, nor even Quasi-Supreme Artifacts!"
"Therefore, whether you can pass the test with a single sentence depends entirely on your own strength!"
"In short, this is a bloody road. The last time the Emperor's Road opened, ten of us from the Yin-Yang Realm were able to return because we were united enough."
"If we don't unite, I'm afraid only a handful of people will eventually return."
"If you calculate the time, it has been 359,997,000 years since the last time the Emperor's Road was opened!"
"There are only three thousand years left until the next opening of the Emperor's Road!"
Three thousand years sounds like a long time.
In reality, for cultivators, it's just a snap of the fingers, a blink of an eye, and it's over!
Because one cannot carry supreme Dao artifacts, or even quasi-supreme artifacts.
Therefore, this path can be considered absolutely fair!
Whether you survive or not depends entirely on your own abilities!
"By the way, kid, you know about Reincarnation, Creation, and the Worldly Free Buddha. Those three kids also ventured onto the Emperor's Path, but that was the time before last when the Emperor's Path opened, back in the late Wilderness era."
At this moment, Douwu slowly spoke.
“Dong Zun, Ming Zun, and Bai Zun from the barbaric era all traversed the Emperor's Path.”
"In the mythical era, my sons, Dou Zun, Lei Zun, and Hai Zun, all traversed this path that buried the bones of countless geniuses!"
"It can be said that most supreme beings in the myriad realms have embarked on such a cruel path of genius downfall before becoming supreme beings!"
"Because that's where geniuses gather!"
