Chapter 549: Chapter 549: The Corpse of Heavenly Dao’s Son! (3 more)

Swoosh!

Ling Feng moved quickly, but no matter how he advanced, everything ahead was just a white expanse. As he walked within it, it seemed he had traveled a great distance and yet not moved at all.

"It really is an Endless Road."

Ling Feng had no idea how long he had walked; in this white expanse, he had completely lost sense of time.

But the more this was the case, the more it stirred the resiliency in Ling Feng’s bones.

"If I can see through a hundred cycles of reincarnation, what is there to fear from the Endless Road!"

Ling Feng clenched his fist, suddenly stopped moving forward, and instead sat down cross-legged right where he was.

He recalled the words of Jin Zhulong, that when he decided to walk back, no matter how far he walked, it would only take half a day to return.

Perhaps, this Endless Road was not a road in the true sense, but a road of the heart!

A road of inner experience!

"Oh? To perceive the essence of the Endless Road so quickly, Heavenly Dao’s Son, you are truly blessed!"

In a chaotic space, a figure emanating a faint golden glow mumbled to himself.

His form had shrunk to that of an ordinary elder, but if Ling Feng were here, he would definitely be able to sense his presence—it was Kong, the ancestor of the Three-headed Demon Flood Dragon Clan!

Kong, with his eyes slightly closed, had every move of Ling Feng within his perception.

He even knew that Ling Feng possessed the Blood of the Emperor, which alone made him no ordinary Demon Emperor!

This was because even the unparalleled Jiang Xuanyu from a thousand years ago did not perceive Ling Feng’s Blood of the Emperor through his own abilities; rather, it was because the Blood of the Emperor in Ling Feng’s body had triggered the time-space traveling ability of the Xuanwu Treasure Blood. (PS: See "Chapter 381, A Thousand Years Ago?")

In a sense, this ancestor called "Kong" from the Three-headed Demon Flood Dragon Clan was even more powerful than Jiang Xuanyu.

"However, to comprehend the reverse flow of time and enter the Ancient Cave of Time is not something ordinary people can achieve. Let me see if all those with the Blood of the Emperor are as defiantly heavenly!"

Kong smiled lightly, then fell silent again. When his eyes were completely closed, all presence disappeared as if truly turning into nothingness, into emptiness, into Kong!

Ling Feng did not know Kong was watching him, but as he quieted down completely, he indeed sensed something peculiar about this space.

"The time here..."

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched wildly as he discovered the unique time-space fluctuations that appeared on the Endless Road, the same ones that had occurred when he had activated the Xuanwu Treasure Blood on the Xuanwu Wall.

And then, he had returned to a thousand years ago.

Could it be that this Endless Road was actually a test of time?

Ling Feng was secretly astonished, for the time-space fluctuations here were very unique, subtly seeming to follow some kind of rule.

"The Ancient Cave of Time..."

Ling Feng murmured to himself, "Time..."

As time slowly passed, Ling Feng sat cross-legged on the ground, unmoving.

If he were to open his eyes, he might see huge cracks in time-space appearing around him, seemingly ready to devour him.

But in an instant, those cracks rapidly closed up, dispersed in a moment by the power of time-space.

Time-space continually appeared and was just as quickly annihilated.

And within this cycle of birth and annihilation, the only constant was the Ancient Cave of Time.

Suddenly, Ling Feng opened his eyes, a curve forming at his lips, and he took a step forward—all the mist, even the path under his feet, vanished at that moment.

His feet now trod upon hard rock, the sight before him—an expansive ancient cave.

"So soon?"

Kong was slightly astonished; the previous person to arrive here did not exhibit such speed.

"Junior Ling Feng pays respects to the senior. May I request the senior to appear before me?"

Ling Feng did not act rashly. Instead, he bowed at the entrance of the cave.

In the presence of this Ancestor, there was no need to lie, for he knew he could never deceive him.

"How did you see through it?" Kong asked indifferently.

"Actually, all the mist and paths are just imagined by those who enter the Endless Road. I was just wandering around the entrance, wasn’t I?"

"I walked through time-space, and no matter where I went, it was time-space moving. But when I stopped time-space, I too stopped."

Ling Feng smiled faintly. Due to his previous experience traversing through time-space, he had gained some understanding of the Power of Time-space, which gave him a significant advantage this time.

If not for that, he wouldn’t have grasped this so swiftly.

"At such a young age, you have already perceived a hint of the Power of Time-space. Heavenly Dao’s Son truly is favored by fate!"

Kong roared with laughter, a wave of Absorption Power surged, sweeping Ling Feng into it.

Ling Feng had no chance to resist. In the blink of an eye, he found himself inside the cave, sitting cross-legged on the ground, a very thin old man.

The old man sat in the center of the cave, his physical body seemingly completely lifeless.

"Senior, you..." Ling Feng was extremely shocked—he could not sense any signs of life from that body, no warmth, heartbeat, breathing, or even a soul!

"I’m sorry, this is not me!"

Accompanied by hearty laughter, a cluster of golden light condensed in the void, eventually forming into a rather tall middle-aged man who, outwardly, appeared almost indistinguishable from a human.

If there was any difference, it was in his eyes, which seemed to be coated with a layer of gold. With every blink, a golden brilliance emanated, daunting to any onlooker.

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched. Such an ancient individual still appeared so young?

"Senior, do you know about the Blood of the Emperor within me?" Ling Feng swallowed hard, slowly speaking.

"The Blood of the Emperor is typically imperceptible." Kong casually sat next to the shriveled body, pointing at it, he softly said, "If not because of him, I wouldn’t have noticed the Blood of the Emperor within you."

"He... " Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably, "is he still... still alive?"

"Alive?" Kong shook his head, "It’s impossible for him to be alive. If someone can still live even after their Divine Soul Origin has been annihilated, then he’s no longer human."

"Who is he?" Ling Feng took a deep breath, a faint premonition brewing in his heart.

"Not many Heavenly Dao’s Sons survive. If I am not mistaken, he might be an Ancestor of your lineage. Anyway, guess whatever relation you want."

Kong’s expression was very casual, even going as far as to nonchalantly cross his legs, completely overturning Ling Feng’s inherent impression of an outsider sage.

"Who exactly are you?"

Ling Feng’s eyelids spasmed. In the Ancient Cave of Time, there existed someone, like himself, with the Blood of the Emperor—a predecessor, no, strictly speaking, the predecessor’s corpse!

What exactly does the so-called Heavenly Dao’s Son bear, and why would someone with the Divine Soul Origin annihilated end up dying in this Ancient Cave of Time?
