Chapter 186 Peeping through
The entire sky was lit up with a fiery red by the endless sea of ​​fire, and coupled with the supreme pressure from the two powerful men, it was about to shatter.

In the Valley of Gods, several ancient clansmen at the level of Zhan Dao joined forces to build a protective shield. They used all their strength and finally managed to shelter many people.

However, it is still unable to turn the tide and the scope of influence is limited.

"Everyone, it's our turn to take action! King Qing Jiao, you guys take up your imperial weapons to protect my wife, and we'll go and kill!"

The dragon horse laughed wildly upon seeing this, and its four hooves gave off thousands of wind and thunder. Its whole body was covered in red flames like a divine rainbow, and it raised a halberd shining with golden light and rushed into the Valley of the Gods.

This golden halberd was obtained from the prince of Prince Duan of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty. It is a complete weapon of the Great Sage. Even if it is placed in the Big Dipper Star Region, it is a supreme treasure and is extremely rare.

Taoist He, Manniu and Black Ape immediately followed behind him and took control of the Great Sage's weapons together with him.

These four people had been entangled with each other in Kunlun Fairyland for many years, and the tacit understanding between them was extraordinary. In addition, each of them had the combat power of the peak of the Way of Slashing, and they were blessed with the weapons of the Great Sage. Once they entered the Valley of Gods, they were unstoppable and killed all the ancient tribes' Way of Slashing.

As one by one the ancient clan's slayers were killed, the decline of the Ancestral King's aura became more obvious, and soon he was no longer as invincible as before.

"Evil creature! The demon race is a large race after all, but now they are willing to associate with humans. It is really despicable!"

The ancestor king watched his clansmen continue to die, especially the disappearance of those cutting-edge forces. He was so heartbroken that he almost went crazy, and his roar resounded through the world.

The small black tower in his hand was glowing with black light, and the law that covered the sky and the sun broke through the clouds, as if a huge mountain was pressing down.

Chai Xin hung the Li Fire God's Furnace upside down and suspended it above his head. The raging flames dropped down like a waterfall, but it could not hurt him at all. Instead, it provided an impenetrable defense.

With the Ancestral King's current combat power, activating the Great Sage's weapon is indeed a formidable achievement, but he has the protection of a quasi-imperial weapon, so he is not afraid at all.

What's more, the opponent's strength is steadily declining, and his momentum has gradually fallen back to a pretty good level among saints, but it is no longer invincible.

"You conceited old thing! The human race has been striving for self-improvement since ancient times. Over the endless years, the number of great emperors produced by us is more than that of all other races combined. Why do you ancient races think you are so high and mighty? This is simply incomprehensible!"

Chai Xin's voice was cold, with undisguised sarcasm in it.

Although the ancient races are powerful, most of them have only produced one emperor, and many have never produced an emperor.

There are at least dozens of great emperors of the human race throughout the endless years!

Although the lower limit of the human race is very low, the upper limit is in no way inferior to the major ancient races, and their various special physiques shine.

He had always found it puzzling when reading books in his previous life: Why were the ancient tribes so proud?
Just because you are born strong?
"Being born strong is nothing. Only if you have the ability to practice all the way and never give in, can you forge a truly invincible path!"

Thinking of the sages of human race throughout the ages who had blazed a trail of pioneering progress through hardships and difficulties, Chai Xin suddenly felt an unprecedented enlightenment.

"I see. This is the real reason why many powerful people throughout the ages choose to give up their special physiques and bloodlines and return to being ordinary people."

The so-called special is always relative. Only the ordinary is eternal!

The more conceited a person is, the harder it is for him to break free from his own shackles, the harder it is for him to see through the root of his invincibility, and the more likely he is to indulge in his so-called "talent".

What is a strong root?
It is knowing others and knowing yourself!

Precisely because most humans are born young and have to be cautious with every step they take, their understanding of the outside world and themselves is far stronger than that of most ancient races.

The human race that is unaware of itself will easily perish.

But the strength of the human race lies not only in self-knowledge, but also in perseverance.

It is precisely because countless human ancestors grew from being weak to being strong, and even achieved success, that later generations firmly believed that even if they were weak for a while, it would not determine their ultimate achievement.

On the contrary, although many special races are born with powerful strength and seem to be unruly, they actually lack the true "invincible" spirit in their bones.

After all, they are full of mysterious confidence in the so-called "bloodline" and "race".

This kind of self-confidence not only gives them an innately strong foundation, but also makes them involuntarily feel awe for stronger bloodlines.

Just like those ancient clans that have produced emperors, their status is always higher than those ancient clans that have never produced emperors.

For example, if people from the Valley of the Gods met the Prince of Heaven, Fire Unicorn and others, they would even have to bow respectfully and consider themselves inferior to them.

This situation does exist within the human race, but ultimately it is an internal problem of one’s own race.

But when it comes to the outside world, although most humans respect the ancient tribes, they do not think that they are inferior to them. This is the core issue.

"I understand... Perhaps, this is one of the core reasons why it is difficult for a family to produce two emperors!"

Chai Xin suddenly realized during the fierce battle and understood many things that were difficult to understand at other times.

Except for very few cases, there are almost no descendants of ancient emperors or great kings, or even descendants who can follow in their ancestors' footsteps and successfully achieve enlightenment again.

Apart from the constraints of the mysterious great way, the "sense of superiority" and "superstition" brought by blood must also be extremely critical factors.

After all, the princes and the emperor's sons must be extremely confident in their own bloodlines, and even have fanatical worship for them.

This kind of self-confidence can be said to be an invincible asset before achieving enlightenment, but when it is about to be achieved, it becomes a shackle that is difficult to break free from.

After all, what the princes and the emperor's sons firmly believe in is the strength and invincibility of their fathers, not themselves.

But the key to enlightenment is to have firm faith in yourself!

If you always believe in the blood from your parents, how can you ever find your own way to invincibility?
Whether to believe in the blood passed down from one's parents or to believe in one's own thoughts is a paradox in itself!
For the descendants of the great emperor, this is undoubtedly another shackle on the already difficult road to enlightenment.

The most important thing is, when one truly reaches the stage of attaining enlightenment, except for a very small number of "special" qualities that defy the heavens - such as the chaotic body, the innate holy body, etc. - the vast majority of "special" qualities are no longer of any use.

"Hahaha, old man, thank you so much!"

After realizing this, Chai Xin couldn't help but laugh out loud, feeling more excited than ever before.

This sudden realization may not be of much use to his current combat power, but it is undoubtedly a leap forward for his future path!
It is true that there are great gains in great wars.

"Whatever the racial talent, whatever the bloodline constitution, in the end, only 'I' is supreme! Whether it is a constraint or a help, it is only a matter of one thought!"

Chai Xin saw through the confusion, his mind became clear, and he reached an unprecedented state of emptiness.

This was not only due to his comprehension, but more importantly, his identity as a time traveler! Because he was a time traveler, although he had great respect for the Ancient Emperor, he did not worship him blindly, nor did he feel that he could not be surpassed.

Moreover, even if he was an emperor-level blood reviver, or a congenital Taoist fetus, he knew that there were still more powerful physiques and bloodlines that were far beyond his reach.

What he has been seeking along the way is nothing more than to accumulate strength bit by bit and finally break the limit in the dark!
This kind of "clarity" that is almost like that of an outsider is actually extremely rare.

For example, if it were the Emperor's sons and others, even if their biological father told them not to be superstitious about blood and physique, deep down in their hearts, how could they possibly betray the pride in their own bloodline?

It's like a child of a noble family: no matter how hard he tries to be approachable, few people can erase the confidence in his family background that he has deep in his bones - and this is just the influence of power and status in the secular world on people.

"Little beast, don't be so arrogant! Even without the blessing of the formation, it is easy for me to kill you!"

King Zu had no idea what Chai Xin was laughing at, but this laughter obviously hurt his heart, especially given the heavy casualties in the Valley of the Gods.

As his roar fell, the black light in the small black tower swept across like thunder, and it was as if the end of the world had come, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles.

Yan Ruyu, Pang Bo and the others were already dazzled. If it weren't for the Green Dragon King guarding them with his imperial weapons, the aftermath of the battle alone would have cost them their lives.

The cultivators who had just entered the Xiantai Secret Realm could only be regarded as cannon fodder in this battle, and they did not even have a chance to escape.

Don’t you see that in the huge Valley of Gods below, except for those above the level of Zhan Dao, no one else can withstand the burning of the fire dragon pouring out from the Fire God Furnace.

"Old man, there's no need to hide it. Your heart has been shaken. This is the beginning of your downfall!"

Chai Xin smiled brightly, his eyes firm and calm, looking indifferently at the hysterical King Zu, the two states formed a very sharp contrast.

"I said, let there be light!"

The next moment, his expression became extremely serene, as if he were a god detached from the world, and he uttered these words softly.

He typed out a digital secret with his left hand, and countless rays of light swirled out from the void, as if real dragons had descended to the world, covering the nine heavens and ten earths.

At the same time, his right hand changed into a fist, activating the Dou character secret, evolving an image of nine dragons pulling a coffin. The Xuanhuang Seal also emerged and transformed into an ancient bronze coffin.

The digital secret and the fighting character secret, each representing the ultimate power of close combat and long-range attack, were used at the same time at this time, and unexpectedly produced unpredictable changes.

The nine pitch-black dragons were endowed with a sacred glow, and their mighty power like the abyss and prison turned into a grand avenue, brewing a divine power that could suppress the ages, making the black light emitted by the small black tower melt like ice and snow.

King Zu didn't take Chai Xin's attack seriously at first, but when he saw this scene, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

The power of the combined evolution of the Digital Secret and the Fighting Secret was so unpredictable that it actually made him feel defenseless. Even the Great Sage's weapons were powerless against it.

"How can this be?!"

The ancestor king had never felt such a helpless feeling. The powerful and sacred Nine Dragons pulling the coffin seemed to come from the depths of the universe. It was almost a kind of "Tao" that could not be described by "technique" or "method" at all.

Naturally, it cannot be defended in the traditional sense.

The heaven and earth were shaking, making an incomparable roar. Except for Yan Ruyu and others who were protected by the imperial soldiers, even the four dragon and horse monsters felt an indescribable sense of oppression, and even their breathing stagnated.

There had already been heavy casualties in the Valley of Gods, and now under the pressure of this breath, many more were immediately engulfed by the sea of ​​fire, and there was hardly anyone who could still breathe.

"kill!"

Chai Xin's black hair was flying, like a god king. His temperament changed from transcendent to domineering. Purple energy surged all over his body, submerging the void.

This time he used the Dou character secret and the digital secret at the same time, but it was not a sudden idea, but he had planned it long ago. This was also one of the reasons why he dared to conquer the Valley of Gods.

However, the power generated by the combination of the two nine secrets still exceeded his imagination.

At this moment, he felt that he had surpassed the "Tao", was above life and death, and could control everything in front of him at will.

Of course, this is just an illusion after the rapid expansion of power. It is impossible for him to be truly invincible in the world, and it is even more impossible for him to transcend life and death.

But despite this, it has reached an unprecedented level.

This improvement is not particularly obvious at the moment, but Chai Xin knows that this means that when he enters the saint level, he will have the power to kill the Saint King!

Killing enemies across realms also becomes increasingly difficult as your cultivation level increases.

After all, the more difficult the practice becomes, the greater the increase in strength will naturally be.

There are quite a few geniuses who can fight Dao Palace with perfection in the other shore, but it is very rare for Dao Palace to be able to fight the Four Extremes with perfection. As for the Four Extremes being perfect and fighting against Hualong, Hualong being perfect and beheading the Immortal Platform... almost no one can do it.

Therefore, although Chai Xin had the power to kill a saint with his cultivation of the Way of Killing, it did not mean that after he entered the saint level, he would be able to cross the realm and kill the Saint King.

The gap between the Saint King and a Saint is far more terrifying than the gap between a Saint and a Slayer!
However, now that he has mastered the power of the combination of the Dou character secret and the digital secret, Chai Xin's ultimate combat power has obviously increased a lot, although at present he can only kill a saint at most and it is impossible for him to fight against the Saint King.

But when one's cultivation level is raised again, that may not be the case anymore.

The ultimate combat power displayed by Chai Xin now is already the same as that of the Ancestral King who was previously blessed by the Divine Valley formation, reaching an invincible level below the Saint King.

"No! This is impossible!"

The ancestor king had come into contact with that level of power before, so he was naturally very familiar with it, and his face was full of disbelief.

Chai Xin was able to compete with him with his Zhan Dao skills, which already made him feel extremely fearful. Now he actually showed enough strength to suppress him, which was simply unbelievable.

Even with his thousands of years of knowledge and experience, he had never heard of a monster of this level!
Looking at the nine-dragon coffin coming at him with a roar, the ancestor king finally felt a trace of regret in his heart.

"Perhaps, I should have given in from the beginning... One thought and I've brought the whole clan down!"

The talent displayed by Chai Xin is so abnormal that as long as it is not stifled, the possibility of his attaining enlightenment is very high.

It can't even be called a talent, because his current strength is enough to rival many old antiques.

"The Emperor has ordered that Chai Daotai show mercy!"

Seeing that the Ancestral King of the Valley of Gods was in a desperate situation, a deep voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.
