Through the practice system of the heavens that shroud the sky

Chapter 342 Thirteen Quasi-Immortal Emperors Follow the Path of Faith

The turbulent waves of the long river of time took Ye Fan, Hen Ren, and Wu Shi through the shackles of time and space, and they were forced to leave the era of Emperor Huang Tian. The lonely and determined figure of Emperor Huang Tian gradually blurred at the end of time and space until it disappeared completely. The three people had mixed feelings in their hearts, with both awe of Emperor Huang Tian's future feats and helplessness that they could not change history.

"Is this the taboo of the long river of time? Even we can't easily set foot in it." The ruthless emperor's voice was cold, but his brows revealed an unconcealable fatigue.

The Great Emperor Wu Shi carried the Wu Shi Bell on his back, staring at the long river of time and space, and said slowly: "The path of the Emperor Huang Tian is destined to be his alone to decide for eternity. All we can do is to ensure that there will be no more obstacles on this road."

Ye Fan held the Cauldron of the Mother Qi of All Things above his head. The golden light gradually faded. He took a deep breath and said, "Let's go back to our time. There are still many things waiting for us to deal with."

The three figures walked along the long river of time and space back to their own era and disappeared at the end of the long river of time.

When they reappeared, they had returned to their own era. The majestic palace of the Heavenly Court came into view, and the familiar scene made the three of them feel a little emotional. After nearly 100,000 years of traveling in the long river of time and space and constant battles, they were a little tired, and now they were somewhat relieved to be back.

Ye Fan and the other two went straight to the Imperial Palace of Heaven and summoned all the powerful people above the Great Emperor. For a moment, the emperors, true immortals, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Pangu, Nuwa, Emperor Zun and others gathered in the Imperial Palace, and the atmosphere was solemn and tense.

Ye Fan stood in front of everyone and said with a serious look: "Everyone, this time the three of us went against the flow of time and discovered an astonishing secret. During the time we were away, Emperor Huang Tian was sniped by strange quasi-immortal emperors from the future. Three of the quasi-immortal emperors, like us, did not belong to that era. They tried to change history and prevent Emperor Huang Tian from growing up."

"What?!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

The ruthless man continued, "The three of us arrived in time and stopped their plot. But we were also targeted because of this. I believe it won't be long before the Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the Weird Clan will launch another attack. This time, they may be even more unscrupulous."

Emperor Wu Shi added: "We have also discovered that the number of Quasi-Immortal Emperors of those strange races is much larger than we imagined. We must make the best preparations to meet the upcoming war."

Hearing this, everyone felt a sense of pressure.

"Emperor of Heaven, how should we respond?" asked a True Immortal.

Ye Fan pondered for a moment and said, "Become stronger as soon as possible. There is no other way. This strange disaster is no longer aimed at us, but will become a disaster for the entire universe. Those strange quasi-immortal emperors have some ulterior motives and want to kill all the strong people who do not belong to their camp."

After a moment, Ye Fan continued, "We have encountered other strange quasi-immortal emperors this time. They are powerful and have strange methods. We must strengthen the defense of the Heavenly Court to ensure that all living beings can be safe under the protection of the Heavenly Court."

Pangu nodded and said, "That's right. This 100,000-year reincarnation passage is also harassed by Quasi-Immortal Emperors from time to time. They are trying to find out our strength and even wanted to invade us before."

Nuwa also said: "Fortunately, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors have successively broken through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, which has made the group of Quasi-Immortal Emperors in the underworld a little wary and temporarily gave up the plan to invade."

Hearing this, Ye Fan and the other two felt solemn.

Emperor Zun said, "You three have gone against the flow of time, and you must have discovered the gap between us and the Weird Clan. I think we should improve our strength as quickly as possible and strive to enter the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm as soon as possible. Only in this way can we be invincible in the next war."

Ye Fan and the other two nodded when they heard this. They knew that what the Emperor said was right, only strength was the key to everything.

"We can discuss the specific plan." said Emperor Wu Shi.

In the following time, everyone came up with ideas and discussed various issues such as how to improve strength, strengthen defense, find allies, etc. Finally, they made a detailed plan and decided to start action immediately.

Seventy to eighty thousand years passed quickly. During this time, everyone in the Heavenly Court was cultivating hard. The Emperor relied on the cause and effect signed with the Heavenly Dao and the action of constantly collecting the fragments of the Immortal Realm and integrating them into the heaven and earth, which greatly improved the status and power of the Heavenly Dao.

Today's Heavenly Dao is already able to suppress two or three Quasi-Immortal Emperors.

The other True Immortals and Great Emperors were not idle either. They constantly broke through their own limits and improved their strength. More than ten Great Emperors had already broken through and become Immortals, and two True Immortals had become Immortal Kings.

The strength of the entire heaven has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to before.

Even if the Weird Clan invaded now, they would not be in such a desperate situation as before. However, the Weird Clan was extremely powerful, and there was an even more powerful Immortal Emperor in charge, which was the biggest hidden danger. Moreover, they believed that if the Weird Clan's Quasi-Immortal Emperor could not defeat them for a long time, it would inevitably attract the attention of the Weird Immortal Emperor, and then they would face the same situation as Li Qiye, being targeted and not knowing whether they would live or die.

For this situation, whether it is Ye Fan, Hen Ren, Wu Shi or the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, there is no good way to deal with it. The only way is to become stronger and break through to the realm of Immortal Emperor. But how can the realm of Immortal Emperor be so easy to step into? Although the Quasi-Immortal Emperor may have the word "Immortal Emperor", it is still farther from becoming an Immortal Emperor than a mortal becoming an immortal. One needs to push the system and the Tao of his cultivation to the extreme. The Tao is endless, so how can one reach the end?

They are still groping for the way ahead, let alone a breakthrough.

However, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors proposed a method. They believed that the power of faith had an extremely mysterious and powerful effect, gathering the wishes of all living beings. If all living beings believed in one person and gathered the power of faith of all living beings, perhaps they could step into the realm of Immortal Emperor, just like they used the power of faith to break into the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Seeing this, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors explained, "The power of faith is the gathering of the wishes of all living beings. If all living beings believe in one person, then this power will be extremely powerful. We used the power of faith to enter the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor, so we think this method may be feasible."

However, they speculated that this method would require the faith of an unimaginably large number of sentient beings. It could not be done relying solely on the sentient beings in their own world. It required the gathering of the power of faith of all sentient beings in the heavens. Therefore, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Pangu, Nuwa and others believed that they could try to conquer and annex other worlds, and then preach, gather the power of faith of sentient beings, and allow one person to become an Immortal Emperor. If successful, then it would mean that this path was feasible.

Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought. They knew that this method could indeed succeed. But they also understood that the risk of this method was equally huge. Once they embarked on this path, it meant giving up their own path and pursuing the faith of all living beings.

This is difficult for any practitioner to accept.

Ye Fan and the others were somewhat silent. They felt that this method might be feasible, but it also had great drawbacks. Going down this path would go against one's own path. Even if one became an Immortal Emperor, it would not be the end of one's path. It might just stop there. Although they did not know if there were other realms after the Immortal Emperor, they felt that such an Immortal Emperor was not the strongest, and they might not be able to contend with a powerful and weird Immortal Emperor.

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors agreed with the concerns of Ye Fan and others, saying that this path was indeed a shortcut, but it was not impossible to take. It would just take more time. However, if someone took the path of faith before becoming a quasi-Immortal Emperor, then it was indeed feasible.

The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Pangu and Nuwa may be more in line with this point, but they said that this path cannot accommodate so many people to become immortal emperors, and their paths are still somewhat different. The path of protection and the path of faith they take are not what they want.

"There is one person who fits this path. Fellow Daoist Emperor was once the Lord of Heaven and was believed in by all living beings. He rebuilt the Great Dao and signed a cause and effect agreement with Heaven. Now he has not yet broken through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, which is very much in line with the path of faith." Emperor Yan looked at the Emperor and said.

These words caused the other people present to look sideways at the Emperor.

Emperor Zun also showed a hint of surprise, and then said, "I think this method can be tried."

"I have signed a cause and effect agreement with the Heavenly Dao. We prosper together and suffer together. The stronger the Heavenly Dao is, the stronger I will be. So I am willing to try this path. Only by becoming stronger can we protect more people."

Hearing the Emperor's words, everyone showed a look of surprise. They didn't expect that the Emperor would be willing to take this path.

"Are you sure? Once you leave, you can't go back." Ye Fan asked.

The Emperor nodded and confirmed that he would take the path of faith. He felt that was his way.

Seeing that the Emperor was so determined, everyone was moved by his determination and decided to help the Emperor try this path. They planned to conquer other worlds of the fairyland fragments in a while, and then start preaching and collecting the power of faith.

Ye Fan and the other two also expressed their willingness to help, speeding up the process, and by the way, they went to look for Gai Jiuyou, Qingdi, Xiao Chen and others who had left, preparing to ask them to help preach outside. Many other people also joined in, and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Pangu, and Nuwa guarded the entrance to the reincarnation passage of heaven and earth to prevent it from being invaded by the weird clan.

In the following time, Emperor Zun began to fight everywhere and collect the worlds of other fairyland fragments. He used his status as the emperor of heaven and the cause and effect signed with the heaven to constantly preach and collect the power of faith.

Ye Fan, Henren, Wu Shi and others continued to look for Gai Jiuyou, Qingdi, Xiao Chen and others, hoping that they could join the Heavenly Court and fight against the weird clan together.

As time went by, the strength of the Heavenly Court continued to increase. The Emperor's faith path also became smoother and smoother. His strength continued to increase, and he seemed to have touched the threshold of a quasi-immortal emperor.

Just when everyone thought that everything was moving in a good direction, the quasi-immortal emperors of the weird clan launched an invasion, gathering twenty quasi-immortal emperors to start a war!
Faced with such a powerful enemy, the people of Heaven did not retreat. They used their own strength and wisdom to fight fiercely with the quasi-immortal emperors of the Weird Clan.

In this battle, both sides paid a huge price. But in the end, the Heavenly Court, with the concerted efforts of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Three Heavenly Emperors, and the Fourteen Quasi-Immortal Emperors, killed more than ten Quasi-Immortal Emperors and successfully repelled the attack of the Weird Clan.

After this battle, the prestige of the Heavenly Court became even more prominent. The quasi-immortal emperors of the Weird Clan also realized that the Heavenly Court was powerful and could not be underestimated. They began to adjust their strategies and no longer launched attacks easily, but instead looked for other ways to deal with the Heavenly Court.
