The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 2920 The Primordial Road

But Austin didn't take action at once, even though the other creatures rushed into the shop to get the valuable treasures.

He had a gut feeling that things were not going to be that simple. It was almost too good to be true.

“Something is going on. I can feel it.’

Sure enough, in the next moment, a thundering roar resounded.

"How dare you rob the shops in broad daylight, you shameless looters?"

A horde of puppet riders dashed into the herb store.

"Die, you worthless pieces of shit!"

Each with a long spear in their hands, the puppet riders rushed towards the mob who came to steal the treasures in the herb store. Many were caught red handed, with the actual stolen goods in their arms.

"Fuck off! Mind your own business!"

There was no way that the outsiders were going to give up the valuable treasures, especially those that they already had in their hands. Soon, they were engaged in a fight with the puppets.

The puppet soldiers were all brave and strong. They knew nothing about pain or death, so the fear of dying was non-existent to them. After all, they were lifeless things.

Not long after, the creatures were surprised to find that an increasing number of puppet soldiers started arriving in the shop and charged at them.

Despite that, there was no way that they were going to give up such precious treasures. They wasted no time snatching the remaining items on the shelves. Besides priceless things like the Flower of Law and the Legendary Dragon Fruit, there were other rare spiritual herbs that people wanted badly. This might be the only time that they would get those things for free.

Meanwhile, in the herb shop, several attendants rushed towards the shelves to prevent the others from taking the goods. However, they were crushed to powder in the blink of an eye. The looters were incredibly determined to ransack the place.

A middle-aged man in black took one of the herbs and burst into laughter. He was an earth immortal.

"Look! I have in my hand, the Flower of Law. It now belongs to us! Anyone who tries to take it away from me shall become an enemy of the underworld, and shall have a taste of my wrath!" he declared loudly.

More than a dozen people shrouded in corpse miasma rushed forward and guarded the middle- aged man in black.

The others were stunned, looked at each other and hesitated.

The underworld was undeniably a powerful force. Most creatures knew it and dared not mess with it.

At that moment, without warning, the roof above them collapsed.

Large pieces of bricks and stones toppled inward.

Then a giant hand appeared from the sky and came at the middle-aged man in black who held the Flower of Law.

In a flash, it seized him so tightly that he couldn't breathe. He let out a loud gasp but no other sound could come out from him. His face became extremely red and distorted as the pressure from the squeeze was too much to handle.

Before the middle-aged man in black could do anything else, the giant hand tightened its grip. He exploded and died on the spot, leaving splatters of blood everywhere. Even the giant hand was drenched in blood.

It grabbed the Flower of Law before dropping the limp and lifeless body like a useless banana peel. But it didn't stop there.

Releasing terrifying power, it launched attacks on the rest of the looters.

Agonizing screams and cries of pain resounded in the shop.

Almost half of the people in the shop were blown up by the giant hand, and they were all destroyed together with their spiritual souls.

"Oh my God! It's a master at the Heaven Immortal Realm!"

Immediately, all the remaining creatures who heard it, felt cold all over their bodies. They froze momentarily, but for dear life, they rushed out of the shop as fast as they could. The most important thing was to get out of there alive.

They could all tell, based on the power released by the giant hand, that it was indeed equal to that of a heaven immortal

This time, the most powerful ones among the creatures that had entered the passage were at the Earth Immortal Realm.

The giant hand had no reservations using its power. It showed no mercy on the helpless creatures trying to get away from it.

"Oh man! Aren't you all seeing this? It's a giant puppet of one million feet in height!"

When they got out of the shop, they finally saw that the owner of the giant hand was a puppet. The puppet bent forward, staring at the people on the ground with its huge eyes.

At that time, the shops on both sides of the street had been emptied

All the creatures had been thrown out from all the stores, including the spiritual herb stores, the taverns and many others.

It turned out that the intruders not only robbed the herb shops, but also rushed into the magic treasures shops and pill shops and snatched a lot of merchandise there.

It was because some outsiders had spotted the valuable treasures in magic treasure shops and pill shops with the aid of their spiritual sense.

While they were fighting over the treasures a couple of minutes earlier, the gigantic puppet that was one million feet high showed up and hit the robbers in the shops. A large number of creatures died in its hands, and the rest were terrified and rushed out.

Just then, a voice resounded.

"This is the Layne Lu City. It is the beginning of the trial road. You can buy treasures and related products and services here. Anyone who dares to take any of them away without paying will surely be killed!"

Out of nowhere, a vision of an old man appeared in the sky.

No one could see his face clearly. But his golden eyes were brightly aglow and attention grabbing as they emitted golden lights.

"I am the guardian of this city. You can have some rest here. A bit later, you must go through the first test in the training field.

Those who pass the test will be able to leave and take the next test in another location,”

the shadow of the elder said in a loud voice.

His voice not only reverberated in the vast block, but also reached other places in the small world. Anyone in all the four corners of that world could hear him clearly.

At this point, all the outsiders looked up at the shadow of the elder in the sky. The shock written on their faces was beyond description.

“This city is called Layne Lu City?

And we will receive the first test here?’

All the creatures from the outside world were in utter shock. They were not expecting that they were about to undergo a battery of tests and tasks.

The strong cultivators had confirmed that this passage was a long-distance space tunnel.

This passage was quite special because of the many small worlds that were in it.

According to old man, however, the passage was the trial road itself.

Upon hearing this, the creatures were beyond disbelief.

More so than anyone else, Austin was shocked when he found out the name of the city.

Others might not have heard of the name Layne Lu, but being from Earth himself, Austin knew it very well.

Layne Lu had been a very famous and skilled craftsman on Earth since ancient times. It was said that he was the first craftsman, the pioneer of his kind. Because of this, he had a much revered and elevated status.

'It is uncanny that this city is called Layne Lu City. Is it a mere coincidence or does it have something to do with Layne Lu from Earth?’

Austin pondered to himself.

"May I ask you a question, sir?

What is this trial road that you speak of?"

someone asked anxiously.

"I'm glad that you asked. The trial road was created by the gods in the primordial times. That is why it also goes by another name, the Primordial Road.

The gods meant to select the creatures that had the potential to become gods, and this road, interspersed with various trials and tests was one of the ways that they could do that. Therefore this road is also called the Road of God-to-be.

During those primordial times, the trial road was open for use to all the universes, including three thousand small universes and three thousand big universes. Any qualified creature could enter the Road of God-to-be and undergo a series of trials and tests to prove whether he or she is worthy to become a god," the shadow of the elder in the sky explained patiently.

The people on the other hand listened very intently.
