Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

Chapter 278: Road to Heaven (Part 2)

His name is Youyue, he is the future heir of Liuli Chen Palace and is very well-known in Jiusheng City.

"Youyue, what do you mean?" Xiao Qinlang shouted coldly, his sword-like eyebrows standing upside down.

"Just now you said that there were constant disasters caused by demons in the ancient times. I was just about to ask you what you meant!" Youyue's eyes were as deep as the abyss, like a desolate and silent universe. He sat there, not afraid of Xiao Qinlang at all, and there was even a sense of tit-for-tat gunpowder.

In terms of background, Liuli Chendian is not inferior to those transcendent Taoist sects and aristocratic families, because their history is even longer, having been passed down from the ancient times, and countless powerful demon kings and demon gods have appeared in history.

There are even rumors that Long Jun, the sixth greatest thief in the North, also came from their place.

As the future master of Liuli Chen Palace, Youyue has an extremely noble status and terrifying strength.

"In ancient times, there were constant disasters caused by demons. Is there anything wrong with what I said?" Xiao Qinlang confronted him.

The Xiao family of Yinchuan, the so-called Yinchuan is in the northern border, which is a place where dragons rise. Nowadays, most of the famous families in the northern border and even the entire Jiuli Dynasty came from Yinchuan.

However, there are also some rumors that the Xiao family is the remnant of the Blood Sea Clan from ancient times. They changed their surnames, disguised themselves as humans, and took root in Yinchuan.

"What's the origin of the Blood Sea Nether Clan?" Gu Chi poked Murong Zhixiu's arm and asked through telepathy.

Murong Zhixiu said, "They seem to be a powerful race from the ancient times. I heard they split from the demon race and defected. However, they were later killed by several human sages and were almost wiped out. By the ancient times, they were basically no longer seen walking around in the world."

He had also seen some records that said that in order to avoid being hunted down by the saints of the human race, the remnants of the Hades captured many human women and married them, hoping that in this way, their offspring would dilute the Hades blood in their bodies.

Rumor has it that the ancestors of the Xiao family in Yinchuan were the descendants of the remnants of the Hades and the human race. Because the Hades blood in their bodies was mostly diluted and their breath was concealed by special armor, they avoided the detection of the human sages.

"They capture the women of our race and force them into marriage, forcing them to give birth to children for them, in order to dilute the dirty blood in them..." Gu Chi narrowed her eyes slightly. This practice made her feel disgusted and angry.

Murong Zhixiu sensed something was wrong and quickly restrained her, warning her silently, "Don't be impulsive. It's just a rumor. We're not sure if it's a remnant of the Blood Sea Nether Clan yet, so there's no need to get angry with him."

Gu Chi said: "I didn't intend to fight him here, I just felt a little unhappy."

On the other side, Youyue, the young master of Liuli Chen Palace, was still arguing with Xiao Qinlang. He snorted coldly and said, "In the past, the Xuehai Ming Clan colluded with the Daoist sect of the upper realm and attempted to annex the countries of the lower realm. In the end, they were surrounded and suppressed by the saints of the human race and many demon gods of my demon court.

Some fled to the depths of the blood sea, while others hid their identities and took root among the demon and human races. This is all clearly recorded in ancient books and historical records. Could I be wrong?"

The two men had just fought a big battle not long ago and had a deep grudge against each other. Now they are at loggerheads and there is a high possibility that they will have another life-and-death duel.

"So what? My Xiao family has been based in Yinchuan since ancient times. We are an orthodox human race and have no causal relationship with the so-called Blood Sea Nether Clan. Stop throwing dirty water on us!"

"Oh, those remnants of those inexhaustible evil who once dreamed of unifying the world, were ultimately defeated and liquidated. Now, with the passage of time, they've changed their identities and are calling themselves a noble family of the human race. They're neither human nor ghost, truly ridiculous!"

Although they were powerful enemies, the two men had no intention of fighting here. They soon calmed down and did not want to be laughed at by others.

Fairy Lianxin poured the wine herself, and then with a turn of her hand, she placed two jade cups in front of Xiao Qinlang and Youyue respectively.

"Young gentlemen, there is no need to argue with each other. Please drink this wine."

Seeing that the atmosphere had relaxed somewhat, someone nearby asked, "Brother Youyue, your Liulichen Palace has a profound heritage, and many demon kings and demon gods have emerged from it in the past. I wonder how much you know about the ancient road that connects to the upper realm?"

Fairy Lianxin smiled lightly, her jade teeth gleaming with a shimmering luster, her bright eyes filled with poetry. She said, "Lianxin also wants to ask Young Master Youyue these questions. Could you please tell me a few?"

Gu Chi was a little puzzled. Why was this woman so obsessed with the ancient road connecting the upper and lower worlds? Could it be that she already knew that the catastrophe was coming and wanted to plan a way out for herself in advance?

"In the distant ancient times, there were indeed many ancient divine bridges and roads connecting the two worlds, but later on most of them were destroyed due to wars." Youyue said calmly.

In the ancient times, the demon race was extremely prosperous. Although the Liuli Palace at that time could not command the whole world, it was definitely an unshakable force. The many classic books handed down also recorded many unknown secrets.

"If the road to heaven in Yuhuang Mountain had not been completely destroyed, it might really lead directly to the upper realm." Youyue did not reveal too much to everyone.

He glanced at the Holy Son of Wanyan Holy Land and said, "As far as I know, several ancient Taoist traditions have found the path to the upper realm. If you want to know the details, it would be more appropriate to ask him."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on the Holy Son of Wanyan Holy Land. Fairy Lianxin personally poured wine for him and said, "Young Master, can you reveal a few things?"

"That happened tens of thousands of years ago, but unfortunately it failed in the end." The Holy Son Wan Yan was silent for a while before speaking.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the Wanyan Holy Land accidentally discovered an ancient road leading to the upper realm. In order to activate it, a huge amount of manpower and resources were spent, but in the end, it was discovered that it was a bottomless pit that could never be filled.

"In the past, in order to activate that ancient road, our Wanyan Holy Land suffered considerable losses. Many predecessors speculated that if the ancient road was forcibly activated, not only would it not reach the heavens, but it might also cause some uncontrollable catastrophic changes. However, the Holy Lord in power at that time still insisted on his own way and did not hesitate to dig up his own roots..."

Wan Yan Shengzi paused and continued, "Later, the ancient road to heaven was indeed activated, and the Holy Lord and the sages also selected a disciple to serve as a pioneer."

"What happened to that disciple later?" someone asked. This is also the question that everyone is most concerned about.

Wan Yan Shengzi had already said that they had failed, indicating that the ancient road did not truly lead to the upper realm. But what happened to the disciple who had pioneered the road? If he died, how did he die?

To these, the Holy Son Wan Yan did not give any answer and remained silent.

"I heard that the pioneer died a miserable death in the end." Lu Yanlie said indifferently.

"Even a transcendent sect as powerful as the Wanyan Holy Land was forced to dig up its own roots in order to activate the so-called road to heaven. What a loss that must have been?" someone was shocked.

"Now, all the transcendent forces in the North have mined a large amount of spiritual mineral resources. If they try again now, I think it won't cost much energy." Someone said.

“If you are not sure whether you can reach the sky, investing too much may result in more harm than good. Even in today’s Wanyan Holy Land, it is impossible to spend such a huge price on gambling.” Wanyan Holy Son shook his head and said.
