The reincarnation of the heavens begins with the path to immortality

Palace of Eternal Life.

The Primordial God Emperor, Laozi, Huang Ya'er, and others had all left, leaving only Shen Pingkang, the Eternal Heavenly Venerable, sitting there cross-legged. At this moment, he stared blankly into the void, pondering his future path.

Previously, he thought that by being kind to others, not causing trouble for Ye Fan, and being as polite and courteous as possible, he might be able to coexist with Ye Fan and his group and resolve conflicts.

But now it seems that this illusion has been shattered and should be abandoned. It is impossible for him and Ye Fan to coexist. In the future, after Ye Fan, the Empress and others become immortals, they will surely come after him for revenge.

So, if that day really comes, will he be able to withstand it?
Shen Pingkang, the Celestial Venerable of Immortality, frowned, constantly contemplating and imagining his future situation. He was not optimistic about his future. If that day really came, he might not be able to withstand the attacks of Ye Fan, the Empress, and others, and would most likely die tragically at Ye Fan's hands.

According to his evolutionary simulation, hundreds of thousands of years later, Ye Fan, the Empress, and Duan De in the Heavenly Court will definitely be able to become immortals, and there will be at least three mortal immortals. As for whether the Azure Emperor, Shennong, the Yellow Emperor, and others will be able to defy fate again, it is unknown. However, they have the immortal realm in the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin, so they should have no problem living for hundreds of thousands of years. Even if they do not truly become immortals in the end, they can still participate in the war.

As for the Hall of Longevity? Hundreds of thousands of years later, he might be able to become an immortal, and the Primordial God Emperor might also be able to become an immortal, but whether the Corpse Emperor, Ning Fei, Laozi, Shakyamuni, and others could become immortals is unknown, and whether Huang Ya'er, Zhang Bairen, and others could become immortals is even more unknown.

Most importantly, hundreds of thousands of years later, most of the supreme beings who have submitted to him in the various forbidden zones of life will likely fail to achieve Nirvana and die on the path to immortality. He is not optimistic about the future of these supreme beings on the path to immortality and only uses them as consumables.

He also lacked the immortal realm with its nine dragons pulling the coffin, allowing the people of the Longevity Palace to live for hundreds of thousands of years. Once they successfully underwent Nirvana once or twice, they could no longer be sealed away and could only choose to die of old age.

Alternatively, one could forcibly break through the barrier between the strange world and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and enter that strange world to obtain immortality.

But if the Corpse Emperor, Ning Fei, Laozi, and others eventually enter the strange world, they will naturally be trapped on the path to immortality and unable to help him anymore. He will then have to face Ye Fan, the Empress, and others all by himself.

Therefore, it is obvious that hundreds of thousands of years later, the Heavenly Court will be stronger and the Palace of Longevity will be weaker!
If Ye Fan insists on settling scores with him, it will be difficult for him to escape or hide. After all, this world and universe is neither too big nor too small. It might be possible to evade the search of a Heavenly Venerable Ancient Emperor, but it would be very difficult to evade a Mortal Immortal.

So what should he do then? The Primordial God Emperor might be able to help him hold off Duan De, but what about Ye Fan and the Empress?

Or perhaps, they pin their hopes on one or two of Laozi, Ning Fei, Huang Ya'er, and others being able to achieve Nirvana and become immortals, and fight alongside him against Ye Fan and the Empress?
Shen Pingkang, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity, couldn't help but shake his head. All of that was uncertain. Placing one's fate on the hopes of others would only lead to greater disappointment in the end.

Therefore, he should think of a safer way to save his life!

For example, he could confirm that someone could join forces with him to fight against Ye Fan and the Empress, making it impossible for the Empress and Ye Fan to do anything to him.

So, are there such people in this world? Yes, just like the Immortal Emperor!

Thinking of this, Shen Pingkang, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity, couldn't help but slightly change his expression. Indeed, hundreds of thousands of years later, those who could be certain to have truly become immortals would not only be Ye Fan, the Empress, and Duan De, but also the Undying Emperor, the Great Emperor Wushi, and a native Red Dust Immortal from the strange world! If they could join forces with the Undying Emperor and that native Red Dust Immortal, along with himself and the Primordial God Emperor, then they would have four Red Dust Immortals on their side. Facing Ye Fan, the Empress, Duan De, and the Great Emperor Wushi, it would be a four-on-four battle, and who would emerge victorious was anyone's guess.

However, just as he thought this, he suddenly shook his head and muttered to himself, "No! It still won't work!"

Because the Undying Emperor is no match for Ye Fan, and that native Red Dust Immortal is no match for the Great Emperor Wushi, the Primordial God Emperor may not necessarily fight to the death. He may only symbolically help to stop Duan De, and would he himself be a match for that Empress?
Shen Pingkang, the Celestial Venerable of Immortality, closed his eyes and underwent another round of evolutionary simulation in his mind, but the final result was still very bad.

The final result of the four-on-four match is likely to be that Ye Fan will be unable to kill the Heavenly Emperor, the Great Emperor Wushi will kill the native Red Dust Immortal, and he himself will likely die at the hands of the Empress. As for the Primordial God Emperor, he might be able to survive!

Thinking of this, Shen Pingkang, the Eternal Celestial Venerable, fell silent again. Suddenly, his eyes became incredibly deep, and he murmured softly, "Then what if it's five against four? What can Ye Fan and the others do to me? Emperor!"

In an instant, his expression became extremely complicated. Yes, he thought of the Emperor!

What if he joins forces with the Undying Emperor to find the Emperor again? He could expose the Emperor's scheme and tell him that Ye Fan and the others had already noticed his presence, but had been holding back, waiting for the final moment when they could all gather together to attack the Emperor!

What expression will the Emperor have at that time? And what plans will he make?

It seems that, faced with Ye Fan, the Empress, and others, even the Emperor would have no choice but to reluctantly join forces with them to fight against the enemy!
After all, if Ye Fan, the Empress, and others were allowed to suppress and kill the Emperor and him, the Emperor's fate would probably be the same as in the original Shrouding the Heavens, where he would eventually be besieged and killed.

Therefore, the Emperor had no choice but to join forces with them, even though he was unwilling. The Undying Emperor and the Eternal Heavenly Venerable were people who had "betrayed" him in the past, and he still had to unite with them, otherwise he would be defeated one by one.

With the addition of the Emperor, it becomes five against four. Moreover, the Emperor's power and terror are self-evident; he alone might be able to suppress Ye Fan and the Empress.

Then, the Undying Emperor and that native Red Dust Immortal can continue to deal with the Beginningless Emperor, while Shen Pingkang, the Longevity Venerable, and the Primordial God Emperor can join forces to deal with Duan De. Perhaps the Primordial God Emperor will even hold back because of this. Shen Pingkang, the Longevity Venerable, will not really fight to the death because it is not worth it!

He just wanted to survive; he didn't really intend to fight to the death!
So, five against four, just right! With the addition of the Emperor, the delicate balance between the two camps can be maintained, and neither can do anything to the other. Shen Pingkang, the Eternal Heavenly Venerable, can naturally continue to live without any danger to his life, and no longer need to worry about being purged and killed by Ye Fan and the Empress.

However, in the novel "Covering the Sky," the Undying Emperor is the villain, and the Emperor is the biggest villain behind the scenes. If they join forces, Shen Pingkang, the Longevity Venerable, will naturally become a true villain as well. The three of them joining forces can be described as a villain alliance!

Thinking of this, Shen Pingkang, the Celestial Venerable of Immortality, became increasingly complicated, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "In the end, I still have to become the villain!"
