Chapter 439 The End of the Great Wall at Diguan
Lin Hanzhou stepped over the pile of scrap metal and pushed open the heavy door after the tenth level.
The sight behind the door made his expression freeze slightly.
This is no longer a passage through the Great Wall, but an extremely spacious circular plaza.
The square is paved with white jade, and twelve huge totem poles stand around it, making it look solemn and sacred.
But at the moment.
This sacred square has been transformed into a brutal battlefield.
The ground was covered with shocking bloodstains, some of which had dried and turned black, while others still emitted a warm scent.
Broken weapons and fragments of shattered magical artifacts were scattered all over the ground.
In various corners of the square, more than a dozen corpses lay scattered about.
Lin Hanzhou's gaze swept over the corpses.
He recognized the clothing of some of them.
"This is... the patriarch of the Kitahara royal family?"
"That's... the Tiger King of the Southern Ridge Demon Clan?"
"And a prince from the Central Plains Divine Dynasty..."
These are all people from the previous 112 Quasi-Emperors.
Each of them was a peak Quasi-Emperor, the foundation of a force, and an ancestor revered by countless people.
They passed the first nine levels and even defeated the guards of the tenth level.
But in the end, they fell here.
He collapsed in the square, just one step away from the finish line.
Their wounds were not caused by the guards.
Those were marks from sword wounds, knife wounds, and attacks from supernatural powers.
The injury was clearly caused by the other quasi-emperors.
"To fight over that thing, huh...?"
Lin Hanzhou raised his head and looked towards the very center of the square.
There is an ancient stone platform three feet off the ground.
The stone platform was covered with intricate spatial array patterns, emitting a faint fluorescent glow.
Teleportation platform.
The only entrance to the final battleground for the imperial throne.
However, this stone platform has an extremely cruel condition for being opened.
It will only activate when only one person remains alive in the square.
In other words.
These dozen or so quasi-emperors, after going through countless hardships to get here, discovered that there was only one spot available.
Thus, former fellow practitioners became mortal enemies.
A brutal and chaotic battle broke out here.
"This is the Imperial Road."
Lin Hanzhou sighed and slowly walked into the square.
He could feel the lingering resentment, hatred, and despair in the air.
Five roads, five squares.
"More than a dozen people have died here, and the situation on the other four roads is probably similar."
"More than a hundred quasi-emperors are like venomous insects, devouring each other in these five jars."
"This isn't Emperor Cheng's Road, it's a meat grinder."
Lin Hanzhou shook his head, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
He was not afraid of killing, but he did not like the rule that forced people to kill each other for survival.
This made him feel that so-called cultivators, in the face of the Heavenly Dao, were nothing more than a pack of wild dogs tearing each other apart for a bone.
"Fortunately though..."
Lin Hanzhou walked to the stone platform and glanced back at the empty passage behind him.
"On this path, I am alone for now."
"It saves us the trouble of cleaning up the trash."
Although he was not afraid of group battles, killing a dozen or so quasi-emperors at their peak would be quite a strenuous task.
It's not bad to have gotten a freebie right now.
Om-!
As Lin Hanzhou stepped onto the stone platform.
The previously dormant formation instantly sensed the only living being in the plaza.
Brilliant beams of light rose from around the stone platform, intertwining in mid-air to form a giant six-pointed star teleportation array.
"Teleportation activated."
Destination: Tianxin Hall.
A grand and indifferent voice resounded in Lin Hanzhou's mind.
Followed by.
That familiar feeling of weightlessness came over me.
Lin Hanzhou's figure was completely swallowed by the white light and disappeared from the square filled with blood and sorrow.
Only a dozen or so cold corpses remain, still lying there quietly, telling the cruel story that once took place here.
......
As the dizziness of weightlessness subsided, the scene before Lin Hanzhou's eyes gradually became clear.
This is no longer the ancient Great Wall road filled with a chilling atmosphere, nor is it the circular square permeated with the smell of blood.
What appeared before him was a magnificent bronze palace that made him feel so small.
The main hall is tens of thousands of feet high, and its top seems to connect directly to the starry sky. Countless stars slowly rotate on the dome, sprinkling down cool starlight.
The surrounding walls were cast from an unknown bronze or ancient gold, covered with the marks of time and countless complex and obscure Dao runes.
This is the end of the Imperial Pass Great Wall – Tianxin Hall.
It was also the final battleground in the struggle for the throne of the Great Emperor throughout history.
"This is a really nice place."
Lin Hanzhou looked around.
The main hall was extremely spacious, so empty that it made one feel uneasy.
Lin Hanzhou's gaze sharpened slightly as he looked at the four corners of the main hall.
There lay four corpses.
Although these four corpses had lost their vitality, they still exuded terrifying fluctuations of law. Even after death, their physical bodies remained immortal, as if they were merely asleep.
"It seems that these are the winners from the other four paths besides the Azure Nether Quasi-Emperor."
Lin Hanzhou slowly walked to one of the corpses.
This is an old man wearing a purple Taoist robe. He has a vertical eye between his eyebrows, and even when it is closed, one can feel the destructive power of lightning contained within it.
Zixiao Quasi-Emperor, a once-renowned master of thunder magic who shook the world.
But at this moment, there was a large, clear hole in his chest, pierced directly by an extremely domineering finger force, instantly obliterating his soul along with it.
Lin Hanzhou then walked to another place.
That was a powerful demon with a burly build and covered in dragon scales; his true form was probably a dragon.
His physical body was incredibly strong, comparable to divine metal, but at this moment it was torn in two by a human and scattered on the ground, the blood staining the bronze ground red.
"They are all one-hit kills."
After examining the four corpses, a thoughtful glint flashed in Lin Hanzhou's eyes.
"It seems that the Azure Nether Quasi-Emperor was indeed ridiculously strong in the previous battle."
"These four individuals, having survived their respective paths to death, are already among the best of the quasi-emperors, each possessing the qualifications to ascend to the throne."
"pity……"
"They encountered Qingming, who had gone mad in his desire to become emperor."
The presence of these four corpses silently testifies to the brutality of the previous battle.
One hundred and twelve quasi-emperors entered the Imperial Pass.
After passing through five dead ends, only five people finally arrived at this great hall.
Then, the five of them engaged in a final battle here.
The Azure Nether Quasi-Emperor won, killing everyone, and went alone to face that damned tribulation of becoming an emperor.
As a result, he died too.
"completely annihilated."
Lin Hanzhou shook his head, found a relatively clean set of steps, and casually sat down.
"This Emperor's Path is really a bit of a waste for Quasi-Emperors."
He wasn't in a hurry.
Now that we're here, all that's left is to wait.
Waiting for other competitors to arrive.
