The king smiled, but his eyes never left Chu Yan's body. Just as Holy Emperor Xuanyang said, he knew how painful everything Chu Yan had experienced was, and how difficult it was to become a king first in the physical body.
Throughout the world of immortality, with thousands of years of history, there have been many influential figures and geniuses, but how many people have ever done it?
Therefore, the king did not relax for a moment. If Chu Yan really couldn't hold on, then he would step into the Holy Road and rescue Chu Yan. Even if doing so would damage his Taoist heart and the Holy Road would be backlashed, but if it really happened
When he gets to that point, he will do this without hesitation.
"Boy, you have to hold on. For your own sake, for the sake of Ruomeng, or for the common people, you must not fall." The king murmured softly.
Miss Xue listened, her heart beating wildly, and then she turned to look at the young man who was not very burly. She was a little confused, but just how much responsibility did these thin shoulders bear?
——
In the holy road, Chu Yan was suffering from severe pain. Thousands of holy lights from heaven and earth fell down and penetrated his body. It felt like he was cut into pieces by a thousand cuts and could not die. But every time, it was as painful as death.
In the baptism of holy light, every cell and molecule in Chu Yan's body was burning and beating.
He could feel as if he had died several times. His body was shattered and then reshaped bit by bit. After being reshaped, it continued to be shattered and reshaped again. Each time, it was heart-wrenching pain.
At first, he kept screaming, but later, he even lost the strength to scream, his eyes were blurred, and there was only a will to tell himself that he could not die, to live, to let him know that he was still alive.
Time passed slowly, and it was just the first step. It took Chu Yan three full days.
Three days later, Chu Yan finally stopped shouting and his breathing became much calmer. During these three days, Chu Yan himself felt a little numb. He couldn't remember how many times his body was destroyed and reshaped. It just kept going back and forth.
.
Fortunately, he survived. After three days, his body was finally no longer broken, and he gradually adapted to the power here.
After three days of baptism, his body became stronger and stronger, and his skin was covered with a layer of light luster, showing a golden holy light, which looked quite magical.
For three days, Miss Xue and the king stayed together. Seeing that Chu Yan's body was no longer destroyed, Miss Xue slowly let go of her tight jade hands. She knew that Chu Yan had survived, at least for the first step, he persisted.
, there will be no more danger.
"My physical body seems to be stronger." Chu Yan narrowed his eyes, then he tightened his grip slightly and punched forward from a distance.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the space in front of him split open, forming a huge space crack, and terrifying fist winds rolled out, turning into an endless hurricane.
"So strong!" Seeing this, Chu Yan himself was shocked.
You must know that now he has no cultivation and has zero immortal power. In other words, this punch is just a pure punch, but it still shatters the space with its power.
And breaking space is at least a power that only the Holy Emperor possesses.
"Stepping out one meter is equivalent to my current physical state, which is already at the Saint Emperor level. This punch is equivalent to the punch of a strong man with one meter of the Holy Road." Chu Yan marveled at the terrifying power of the Holy Road, and then he looked ahead.
999 meters, if he walked all the way and became the king in the flesh, how strong would he be?
"Huh!" He took a long breath and took the second step.
Chu Yan took one step forward.
"boom!"
In just a moment, before Chu Yan's feet could fully stand still, he felt tens of thousands of tons of force suppressing him. His eyes widened, and his facial features were about to burst. His eyes turned red, his skin burst, and blood splattered everywhere.
"Ah——" Chu Yan screamed, it was so terrifying. This second step was at least hundreds of times more powerful than the first step.
Chu Yan originally thought that everything was difficult at the beginning, but he had endured the first step. Even if the next nine hundred and ninety-nine steps were difficult, they should not be more painful than the first step.
But now he understood that he was wrong, and how wrong he was.
This holy road is getting harder every day, step by step. His physical body can now resist the force of the first step, but as soon as he reaches the second step, his physical body explodes with a bang, all his internal organs are shattered, and his bones are wiped out inch by inch.
Destroyed into powder.
Miss Snow clenched her jade hands again and whispered: "Although the Holy Road is only a thousand meters long, every meter is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Even if it reaches 999 meters, no one can guarantee their success, and
The further back you go, the harder it becomes—"
"He will persevere," the king said seriously.
Miss Snow didn't say anything. I hope so. Just as the teacher said, no more people should die.
Doctors should have a benevolent heart and save people from the suffering of fire and water, not kill people, which is a sin.
——
The second meter of the Holy Road was more difficult, a hundred times more terrifying than the first meter. In this meter, Chu Yan's will was almost destroyed.
He even forgot how much time had passed. It was longer than the first meter. It took seven days for his body to stop decomposing and adapt to this power.
"Two meters, I have persevered." Miss Xue whispered, and she kept thinking about it for seven days.
Chu Yan's strength was also stronger, but at this time, he no longer cared. The heart-wrenching pain was not only a torture to the physical body, but also a test to the mental strength.
He looked up at the remaining 998 meters, and suddenly felt a sense of confusion.
At this time, he finally understood why more than a hundred Immortal Emperors had failed. What they lost was not necessarily the Holy Road, but also their own hearts.
Only two meters was so painful, and there was still an endless road ahead. It was no exaggeration to say that it was almost endless. Even he was a little shaken.
And this is what warriors fear the most. If they deny themselves and think they can't do it, then they definitely can't do it.
"The Holy Road, the Great Road of Heaven and Earth, is this what it is?" Suddenly, Chu Yan felt that he understood the Holy Road a little better.
It turned out that he didn't know what the Holy Road was and why it was born, but when he actually walked on this road in the flesh, he understood a little bit.
The so-called holy road is actually more like a kind of tempering of willpower, deepening one's own belief, tempering it repeatedly, and finally reaching the end and achieving the Taoism.
But this road is really difficult.
After enduring the second meter, Chu Yan exhaled and took the next step.
He didn't even dare to let himself think, because he was afraid that once he stopped, he would never dare to move forward.
Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, one hundred days passed. This time seemed very long, but in fact, Chu Yan had only walked thirteen meters. At this rate, it might take thirty meters for him to completely cross the Holy Road.
years, or even longer.
On this day, Holy Emperor Xuanyang came here and saw that there was no one left in the holy road. Chu Yan, who was covered in blood, was a little surprised, because although Chu Yan was miserable, he was still alive.
"Compared with some of the people before him, he is different." Holy Emperor Xuanyang said lightly.
"Of course." The king smiled, and then suddenly said: "Xuan Yang, do you believe in fate?"
Holy Emperor Xuanyang was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I am a doctor, so naturally I don't believe it. My fate is up to me and not to God."
"I believe it." The king seemed to be talking to himself and looked at Chu Yan: "Then do you know what a son of destiny is?"
"It came into being in compliance with the destiny of heaven?" Holy Emperor Xuanyang asked.
"Of course not." The king laughed loudly: "The so-called son of destiny is born to go against heaven, break the destiny, and break all the rules. Such a person is the son of destiny, and he will be such a person
Man, do you believe it?"
Holy Emperor Xuanyang frowned even more tightly and muttered: "When my teacher was still alive, he once mentioned a person to me, Qin Ruomeng from the palace, a mysterious woman. In that era, she was known as the daughter of destiny.
, Chuang Shen Palace, went against the will of God, but in the end, she failed."
"Failed?" The king smiled even more wantonly: "You are wrong, Shen Palace has never been defeated. The defeat of Shen Palace is only because of wanting to lose. Otherwise, how could it be defeated?"
Holy Emperor Xuanyang frowned even more tightly. He was also from the older generation of the Immortal Realm. He was close to the era of the Divine Palace and knew a little about the things of that era: "I've actually always been very curious about whether it's the Divine Palace or the Nine Heavens Royal Family. You guys
, what exactly do you want to do?”
After a pause, Holy Emperor Xuanyang continued: "Teacher once said that there are some people in this world who are born to compete with the sky, but what do you really want?"
The king looked at Holy Emperor Xuanyang in surprise and said with a smile: "The ghost doctor was very talented back then and was proficient in the calculation of heaven. Didn't he calculate something? Why, didn't he tell you?"
Holy Emperor Xuanyang shook his head: "The teacher said that my fate is not hard enough, so I am not allowed to participate. Anyone who can play with the sky must either have great luck or have an extremely hard fate."
"Haha, the ghost doctor is smart, but he is right. Your destiny is not strong enough. You cannot play this game of chess." The king laughed, and then murmured alone: "You must have great luck or extreme destiny.
A tough person? I don’t know what kind of person I am.”
