Chapter 498: Entering Emperor Road, Wu Clan’s Power, Divine Emerald Lamp
Many cultivators gathered outside the Misty Ocean as they stared passionately at the entrance of the Emperor Road. At the same time, they also feared the danger within the Misty Ocean and could not muster the courage to venture forth.
Just then, an enormous black Fairy boat glided across the air and landed on the surface near the Misty Ocean.
Then, the cultivators witnessed the Fairy boat releasing a surge of sword qi onto it.
The terrifying sword qi poured out and caused the mist above the ocean to dissipate, opening a clear, wide path straight into the Emperor Road!
The path and the mist were separated by a boundary that was forged from myriads of sword qi that merged into a barrier.
Chu Kuangren had separated the Misty Ocean with a single ray of sword qi!
"It’s him. He’s here."
"Chu Kuangren’s here. Why wouldn’t he be? It’s the race to the Emperor Road."
"What an amazing sword qi. It literally just parted the Misty Ocean into two. He really lives up to his name."
"Of course! He has once obliterated the Ancient Battlefield with a single palm technique. What’s parting the ocean compared to that?"
Following the parting of the Misty Ocean, the cultivators quickly retrieved their Fairy boats and tailed the Illusive Mirage.
Chu Kuangren stood on board the Illusive Mirage and mobilized his spiritual thought. Nothing on the ocean’s surface could escape his sight.
"Misty Ocean, one of the Ten Great Forbidden Areas. According to the ancient tales, the unending mist is the manifestation of the rage qi of an Emperor who has perished in this region. Countless oceanic beasts also reside within these waters. This is the most dangerous location out of all the Forbidden Areas."
Chu Kuangren murmured. His spiritual thought could sense many formidable entities dwelling within the ocean, and some of them were even stronger than a Boundary Emperor. He could even sense that some locations were immune to the detection of his spiritual thoughts. All in all, it was a location filled with mysteries.
If there was any location in Firmament Star that would make Chu Kuangren feel uneasy, the Misty Ocean was one of them.
Fortunately, the entrance to the Emperor Road was near the outer perimeter of the Misty Ocean.
The crowd approached the Emperor Road.
Soon, they arrived before the gigantic pillar.
The glowing pillar shot straight into the sky, radiating a surge of overpowering spatial energy as if it was a fabric that linked all the realms and universes together.
"Let’s go."
Chu Kuangren said faintly.
With that, they entered the pillar and were soon engulfed by a boundlessly formidable spatial energy.
…
Stone City, Wu clan.
The Wu clan was one of the most influential clans in Stone City, known even by cultivators who lived millions of kilometers away.
The Wu Clan Leader was a formidable Sage Ruler and also one of the strongest experts on the Emperor Road.
Yet on this day, the Wu clan was facing unprecedented turmoil.
"Wu Clan Leader, surrender the Divine Emerald Lamp, or the Wu clan shall perish today."
Within the Wu clan’s compound, a bare-shouldered brute laughed menacingly and said.
Beside him were a few more cultivators who boasted an equally strong aura. Each of them was a Sage Ruler cultivator.
