Because the emergence of the Human Sovereign's Path was announced by the Lord of the Chaos Heavenly Mansion himself, with recognition from other human Great Emperors, it caused all living beings to boil with excitement.
Everyone knew that the Human Sovereign was currently in seclusion, awakening his past and present lives, and would not be reincarnating again to compete with them for the Human Sovereign's throne.
Once one grasped the Human Sovereign's throne, they could command the infinite, mighty power of the myriad realms, a status not inferior to that of a Great Emperor Supreme One.
For the people of the world, such a sovereign throne undoubtedly possessed immense allure.
Furthermore, some exceptionally outstanding Heaven's Prides were permitted to leave the myriad realms and venture to the legendary Ultimate Ancient Path for training.
This made many Heaven's Prides quite expectant. After all, the invincible Battle Saint King of yore had once walked the Ultimate Ancient Path, fought his way to the Supreme Ancient Path, and ultimately silenced all the Heaven's Prides of the Chaos Sea, becoming the final invincible one.
If they could set foot on it, they could witness the various traces left by the Battle Saint King in the past, which might be of great use for comprehending the Dao.
Moreover, even if they couldn't comprehend the Dao, merely bearing witness would be enough to satisfy many Heaven's Prides.
After all, for the countless Heaven's Prides of the Pangu Universe, the Battle Saint King's status was so lofty that it even surpassed that of many Ancient Great Emperors throughout history, standing like an immortal monument!
Two thousand years stronger than Ancient Great Emperors, three thousand years guarding the mortal world!
This was the magnificent achievements of a generation's invincible Battle Saint King!
Of course, the Human Sovereign's Path was not necessarily inferior to the Ultimate Ancient Path or the Supreme Ancient Path. Because of three thousand years of prosperous development, both the upper and lower realms of the Pangu Universe had given birth to countless Heaven's Pride talents, Kings, True Kings, and even Supreme Heavenly Prides.
By now, with the Heavenly Dao completely perfected, the birth of Supreme Heavenly Prides, while still not numerous, far exceeded the numbers from that era without Supremes five thousand years ago.
The present age was an unprecedented era of peace and prosperity for the Pangu Universe, reaching an extreme peak far surpassing any previous era.
With so many super Heaven's Prides competing in the same era, the competition was no less intense than that on the Ultimate Ancient Path.
Furthermore, to select a new successor for the Human Sovereign, it was said that various Supreme Great Emperors personally took action to open up a Starry Sky Ancient Path, with many Monarchs and Ancient Monarchs participating, making the Human Sovereign Ancient Path of this era unprecedentedly prosperous.
It was even rumored that the Palace Lord of the Chaos Heavenly Mansion, the invincible Battle Saint King, had personally visited the Human Sovereign Palace and left behind an Emperor-level opportunity.
Whoever could ascend to the Human Sovereign's throne would obtain this Emperor-level opportunity.
Without a doubt, an opportunity left by the strongest Heaven's Pride of all ages, who had dominated the world for five thousand years without finding a rival, could not possibly be something ordinary. It attracted countless Heaven's Pride talents from the myriad realms and the eight lower realms to eagerly participate in the competition for the Human Sovereign Ancient Path. Even those Heaven's Prides who had gone to the Ultimate Ancient Path or Supreme Ancient Path were unwilling to leave.
Even the descendants of Supremes did not hesitate to emerge and compete for this opportunity.
It must be noted that the former Emperor Sons and Daughters, such as Emperor Wuming, Emperor Wushuang, Shen Rong, Ye Cangqiong, Angel Imperial Son, and others, had basically given birth to children over the past three thousand years.
Their offspring, while perhaps not equal to themselves, must be considered—the partners sought by Emperor Sons and Daughters could not possibly be ordinary. If one was not sufficiently powerful and outstanding, they simply could not enter their eyes.
Their children, belonging to the second generation of Supreme bloodlines, were incomparably powerful. Even if slightly inferior to their parents, they absolutely belonged to the Supreme Heavenly Pride level, possessing Emperor potential and formidable talent.
The existence of these Supreme grandchildren made the competition for the Human Sovereign's Path even more intense, eliminating the need to go to the Ultimate Ancient Path or Supreme Ancient Path for contention.
Who wouldn't value the Emperor-level opportunity left by the Battle Saint King?
In fact, perhaps intentionally giving it a push, other human Supremes also left behind traces of their own, attracting the participation of countless Heaven's Prides from both the upper and lower realms.
The competition for the Human Sovereign Ancient Path quickly fell into an unprecedented grand spectacle.
Soon, the children of the various Emperor Sons and Daughters gradually stood out. After all, they inherited the most powerful Supreme bloodlines, not much inferior to their parents' generation. At a young age, they displayed the formidable potential of Supreme descendants, sweeping aside enemies from all sides early on and becoming the outstanding ones.
The world speculated on who would ultimately become the new Human Sovereign.
But the number of peerless Heaven's Prides appearing in this era was far too many, far surpassing previous eras. Someone specially compiled a list of those qualified to contend for the Human Sovereign's throne, each one a hegemon of the ancient path, immensely powerful.
At this time, the myriad realms were also paying attention to another peerless Heaven's Pride with immense potential—Ye Jing!
The whole world knew that this was the youngest daughter of the Battle Saint King and the Goddess Zhao Jingruo, who had already become a Monarch. Upon her birth, various phenomena shook heaven and earth, directly stirring the spiritual energy of dozens to hundreds of great domains, nearly devouring it all.
It once shocked the entire Pangu Universe, drawing the attention of various Supremes, who marveled at it.
Without a doubt, this was a baby girl with transcendent talent, her bloodline power astonishing the world, far more shocking than the birth scenes of Emperor Sons and Daughters or immortal offspring recorded in ancient texts.
In fact, whether it was her father, the Battle Saint King, or her mother, the Goddess, both were Monarchs. Especially her father's bloodline was even more heaven-defying. The offspring of their union, how powerful their bloodline would be, was simply unimaginable.
Many believed that Ye Jing's potential was so powerful that it could likely rival the offspring of Eternal Giants.
Therefore, everyone believed that Ye Jing would be the most powerful contender for the Human Sovereign Ancient Path, bar none!
The whole world watched, eager to know how far Ye Jing, who had been born for twenty years now, had progressed.
Chaos Heavenly Mansion.
In the rear garden, magnificent imperial palaces stood tall, spiritual energy was vast, and the immortal realm was ethereal, dreamlike and illusory.
A couple who seemed like immortals appeared here. The man was flawless, beyond reproach; the woman was peerlessly elegant, stunningly beautiful beyond compare.
Before them was a little girl, just over three years old, born exceptionally delicate and pink, with large, dark, clear eyes. She hopped and skipped about, naturally exuding an immortal aura, very endearing.
Looking at the little girl, the couple showed doting expressions.
They were Ye Chen and the Goddess.
The little girl was naturally their youngest daughter, Ye Jing.
Ye, for stillness!
Taken from one character of each of their names, it was simple, yet it carried their parents' wish for her to live a peaceful, tranquil life without hardship.
But Ye Jing was not quiet at all; on the contrary, she was very lively, hopping and skipping about. If not for her cultivation being sealed, she could probably fly to the outer starry sky.
"Daddy, Mommy, hug hug!"
The adorable Ye Jing was calling for her parents, stretching out her two pink little arms and flying into a hug.
The Goddess Zhao Jingruo, as a mother, had a gentle expression. At this moment, there was none of her past aloofness and majesty, only the doting love of a mother for her child. She reached out with her delicate hand to receive her daughter, holding her in her arms.
The little daughter's pink little hands encircled her mother's jade-like neck, giggling with childlike innocence and cuteness.
In fact, as the youngest, she was also the undisputed little princess of the Chaos Heavenly Mansion, dearly loved by everyone.
Beside them, Ye Chen watched, his heart at peace.
