Supreme Warrior in the City

The crowd stared in astonishment at this scene, unable to comprehend the situation.

In the end, these strongest ones, each tried it one by one, but the result was the same as for Heaven Slayer Ye Wantong. They walked to that place, and nothing happened, as if nothing had occurred.

”What on earth is going on?” Su Yang couldn’t help but walk to that place again, trying once more. As a result, he suddenly disappeared again.

Su Yang came back, seeing the expressions of the crowd, he knew what had happened. He scratched his head and said, ”How can this be?”

”Why don’t we go together with Brother Su?” Qi’er suggested, ”Hold hands and walk over together, to see what’s going on?”

”Let me try!” Ye Wantong nodded, she walked over and held hands with Su Yang, moving forward together.

Arriving at that place, Su Yang clearly felt his hand suddenly empty. He had already begun to run towards that area of the forest, while Ye Wantong stood still, looking bewildered.

”Still not working?” Su Yang stepped back, looking at everyone in amazement, ”When I get there, I feel my hand empties, and then I just went in by myself.”

”What is going on here?” Everyone was perplexed, this situation truly baffled them.

”Could it be due to strength limitations?” The Human Emperor suddenly said, ”This is a place where only those below the strongest can enter, those who have reached the strength of the strongest cannot enter?”

Everyone immediately widened their eyes, indeed, this seemed possible.

”Then let’s find someone below the strongest to try!” Su Yang immediately said.

”You all wait here!” The Taoist Venerable said and quickly left. It wasn’t long before he returned with the Eternal Divine Emperor and four others.

The reason he brought these five was mainly because their strength was similar to Su Yang’s, they were all at the Heavenly Peak. The closer the strength, the more it explains the situation.

”Try again.” The Taoist Venerable said, ”Su Yang, take these five over to try!”

Su Yang nodded, taking the five towards that area.

These five had already heard from the Taoist Venerable about the situation as they came, and they were also very surprised. They followed closely beside Su Yang, fully alert, wanting to observe what was different about this place.

Soon, they reached that position.

A group of strongest ones behind them widened their eyes, watching as these five walked over with Su Yang. But quickly, Su Yang disappeared, while the five remained standing, bewildered, looking around.

”What’s happening?” The Human Emperor exclaimed, ”Does it have nothing to do with strength?”

Others were equally puzzled, previously really believing it was due to this reason. Now it seemed not to be the reason at all.

But if it’s not due to strength limitations, then what is it? Why could Su Yang go in, but they couldn’t, and neither could the five including the Eternal Divine Emperor? What was special about this place?

Su Yang backed away, equally perplexed by the situation, unable to understand it at all.

”It’s not due to strength, could it be due to people?” The Human Emperor looked up and down at Su Yang, ”But there’s not much difference between you and us, so why can you enter, but we can’t?”

Su Yang scratched his head, ”Could it be because of some connection I have with this place?”

”What connection?” The Human Emperor asked curiously.

Su Yang recounted his previous suspicions, including the memories that weren’t his, which returned after he picked up that branch.

Everyone listened and was utterly shocked, mouths agape.

”Su Alliance Leader, according to you, there isn’t just one World Tree, but many. The previous World Trees also gave birth to life, but ultimately those lives withered and the World Trees withered too, leaving that forest?” The Eternal Divine Emperor exclaimed in astonishment, ”And you, are a surviving life from one of those World Trees, sent by that World Tree to another newly born World Tree, which then revived you?”

Though what the Eternal Divine Emperor said was convoluted, it was exactly what Su Yang was speculating. He slowly nodded, ”I think this is a possibility!”

Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with astonishment.

”Amitabha Buddha!” The Buddha Venerable sighed lightly, ”If this is true, it could explain some questions from when primordial life first emerged!”

”What questions?” Su Yang asked curiously.

The Buddha Venerable looked at the Human Emperor, speaking softly, ”Human Emperor, do you remember? When we first emerged from the Ancient times, we were actually quite fragile. Although we were innate beings, most of our strength was cultivated later. Only Su Alliance Leader was different from us. Upon his birth, he had the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone. At that time, we marveled, he must be the child of providence!”

The Human Emperor nodded, ”Indeed, I used to envy him greatly. To be so powerful from the start, possessing the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone, things I still haven’t achieved despite all my cultivation. While he had them right upon birth, I was quite frustrated then. Hearing you now, I understand a bit more; his Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone were probably cultivated in his previous life, in the world of that World Tree he lived in!”

The others appeared shocked but nodded in agreement. Given Su Yang’s case, this explanation was the only one that made sense!

”Also, he seems to have been born earlier than us!” The Taoist Venerable curled his lips, ”I still remember when I first met him, he beat me up and made me call him ’Grandpa’!”

Everyone: ”...”

Su Yang felt a flush of embarrassment; such things happened? No wonder the Taoist Venerable seemed somewhat displeased with him during his first visit to the Venerable’s planet, turned out he had beaten him before!

”Wasn’t it your sharp tongue that compelled you to compare ages with him!” The Human Emperor pursed his lips, ”I couldn’t beat you, otherwise I’d make you call me ’Grandpa’ too!”

”You still can’t beat me now, should you call me ’Second Grandpa’ then?” The Taoist Venerable immediately put hands on his hips.

”Get lost!” The Human Emperor rebuked with annoyance, then looked at Su Yang with a frown, ”If it is indeed as Su Yang just described, that he came from inside that forest, then he can enter again. For us, it’s truly impossible to enter this place, as we didn’t originate from this forest!”
