In the heavens, people become emperors by being bad.

Chapter 544 [The Sacred Body is the Invincible Path; More Bones, More Paths]

"Lord Lin is even more ruthless than the Black Emperor, and even more ruthless than Duan De..."

Ye Fan muttered to himself, "I've seen dogs before, but I've never seen one this vicious. It's true what they say, every dog ​​has its match, and every vicious dog has its wicked person to deal with it."

"what are you saying?"

Lin Xian asked with an unfriendly expression, "How can I, the dignified Lord of Tianxuan, be compared with the likes of Duan Dehei Huang? Everyone in the Beidou Star Region knows that I, Lord Lin, am a public-spirited and righteous person, and a first-class model of the righteous path in the Eastern Wilderness."

"It's nothing, I was just saying that the Holy Lord has a brilliant insight."

Ye Fan coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject, saying, "What do you fellow cultivators think?"

The princes looked on with strange expressions, but they were also curious about what other supernatural abilities a dog that could set up an imperial array could possess.

"Isn't the successor of the Great Emperor Wushi a person with an innate sacred body and Dao embryo?"

Tai Chu was puzzled as to why an ordinary big black dog would have such potential. He used his Dharma Eye to examine the Black Emperor's origin and found that it was just a mongrel dog with no bloodline and was not a different species.

"The big black dog is extraordinary. It is said to have been tempered by the blood of the Great Emperor Wushi and consumed the essence of the elixir of immortality. Its treatment is no less than that of the emperor's son."

Lin Xian sighed, "The Great Emperor Wushi personally cultivated him and created scriptures for him in order to prove that ordinary people are no worse than imperial sons and geniuses. Turning decay into magic is a truly great way of creating fortune."

The princes were stunned. To raise a mongrel dog into a being of imperial prince caliber—what kind of method was this? It was truly astonishing.

"Wu Shi, as expected of one of the strongest emperors of the human race."

"At the end of the immortal path, who stands at the peak? Upon seeing the beginningless Dao, all is in vain. What is said is not false."

Several prodigies sighed in admiration, when suddenly one of them asked abruptly, "Do you think this dog, comparable to an imperial prince, will surpass our cultivation in the future?"

In an instant, the atmosphere became tense. The smiling princes and prodigies of the emperor suddenly changed their expressions. At first, they were disdainful, but after careful consideration, they found that there was some truth to it, and they couldn't help but stiffen.

Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case!

"What kind of world is this? People are treated worse than dogs." Dao Yi couldn't help but shake his head. The Black Emperor has now surpassed 90% of the outstanding people in the world, and may become a quasi-emperor in the future.

A near-emperor dog, just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

"The Golden Age truly lives up to its name." The Emperor sighed. He had thought that he would sweep across the world as soon as he was born, but he did not expect so many things to happen. Even the end of the mythical era was slightly inferior.

Outstanding talents emerge in every era; in any other time, they could have become emperors, but they all chose to prove their Dao in this one.

If someone can stand out in this life and overpower all others, they will definitely become a Heavenly Emperor.

"Woof woof woof, you bunch of bastards, let me out right now!"

The Black Emperor was so enraged within the Quasi-Emperor Formation that he was practically jumping over the wall. If he hadn't been proficient in the Boundless Formation, he would have been roasted to a crisp by now. Yet, a group of people from the Heavenly Court were actually gloating over his misfortune.

"Come out if you dare," Ye Fan said jokingly.

The big black dog immediately flew into a rage and roared, "Come in if you dare!"

Then came words like "I am a man of extraordinary talent, and I have made great contributions to the Heavenly Court," which drew laughter from the crowd, filling the air with a joyful atmosphere.

"If you come out yourself, you can choose the first item from the Tengshe Treasure Vault."

Ye Fan discussed with several imperial princes and decided to test the Black Emperor's abilities.

Are you serious?

Black King's eyes lit up instantly, and he howled, his greed no less than Duan De's.

Lin Xian also admitted this, but only allowed the Black Emperor to choose one item, fearing that the big black dog would devour the entire treasure vault with a single move.

"Let me show you what I'm capable of!"

The Black Emperor laughed wildly with his hands on his hips, but when it came to studying the array patterns, he became extremely serious. He even took out a pair of technological glasses made by the Eternal Star Domain, which turned into divine eyes to assist in observation, like an old scholar tapping and tinkering on the quasi-emperor array patterns.

"No, this dog is actually something."

Ye Fan gasped. The Black Emperor was just as good at hiding as the Holy Master Lin.

Half a day later, a shocking Dao principle exploded, its killing intent vast and eternal, astonishing everyone.

"This is impossible!"

The emperor suddenly walked over, his pupils dilated, and his voice trembled slightly as he said, "The second corner of the flawless Emperor's array pattern!"

The other imperial princes were also astonished, as if they had seen a ghost. What was the Great Emperor Killing Array? It was an ultimate artifact comparable to an imperial weapon.

Even ordinary sages who can master a few incomplete array patterns are enough to roam freely in the starry sky.

Being able to set up a perfect imperial formation in a corner is the foundation of a great sect's holy land, something even a great sage would be proud of.

The Two-Cornered Beginningless Killing Formation is not as simple as one plus one; its power is amplified exponentially.

“Aside from the Great Emperor, very few people can fuse the two corner array patterns.” Zhang Bairen’s expression was extremely serious. If the ten corners overlapped, the killing power would be a hundred times greater. If it were truly flawless, it would give birth to a god, which would be equivalent to an imperial weapon that could be revived at any time.

At this moment, the princes realized the Black Emperor's status in the Heavenly Court—a truly powerful figure.

In terms of array patterns, he possesses the true bearing of an emperor.

"No, something's missing." Ye Fan keenly noticed that the second corner array pattern set up by the Black Emperor was teetering on the brink of collapse; it was incomplete and could self-destruct at any moment.

"That's enough. With Black Emperor's skill, it won't be long before it's perfected."

Lin Xian nodded. The Black Emperor was once a demon saint under Wu Shi. Now he has severed himself and started anew. With the accumulation of two lifetimes, it is not excessive for him to have achieved this level.

After all, this dog was once able to fight against the Victorious Fighting Buddha; it was not only a half-step Quasi-Emperor, but also a peerless Great Sage.

"However, how did this dog manage to have so much lifespan after committing suicide? Did it take an elixir of immortality, or did the Great Emperor Wushi use heaven-defying methods to restore its vitality?"

Lin Xian pondered carefully, preparing to find an opportunity to interrogate Black King. You never know what good things the big black dog is hiding.

Several imperial weapons were wielded, and the quasi-imperial formation protecting the treasure vault was blasted open, revealing a mountain of rare treasures that even the most outstanding sons of emperors couldn't help but take notice.

"This is not just the treasure trove of the Quasi-Emperor Tengshe, but the treasure of the Tengshe clan for millions of years, including that Tengshe Supreme who attained enlightenment through unconventional means!"

Black King roared with excitement, his eyes shining brightly. He had struck it rich this time.

"Materials for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill."

Lin Xian had sharp eyes and quickly found several ingredients. He couldn't help but mutter, "I was wondering why the Great Universe didn't have them. They're all lying in the racial treasure troves."

An emperor's reign lasts only tens of thousands of years, making it difficult for him to collect rare celestial treasures that appear only once every hundreds of thousands of years.

However, these races, which have existed for millions of years, can accomplish what even emperors could not, by accumulating over time and through the efforts of thousands of generations, much like ants carrying food.

"Indeed, implementing the Heavenly Emperor Coin policy was the right thing to do. The foundation of the cosmic race is deeper than we believed."

Ye Fan nodded. With the killing of the Quasi-Emperor, the Heavenly Court's prestige rose to another level, and trade with all races would proceed smoothly.

“Baby, my baby…” The conversation between the two was quickly interrupted by a lewd laugh. Black Emperor was the first to choose a treasure and rushed towards a golden mountain.

To be precise, it wasn't a mountain, but rather the divine skin that the old Teng Snake shed during its breakthrough, a top-tier treasure.

How powerful is a quasi-emperor? A group of emperor princes at the Great Sage level, wielding imperial weapons and immortal artifacts, chased after one star field after another, exhausting the resources of the Heavenly Court, and almost suffered a defeat in the end.

When Ye Fan offered the cauldron, he was almost killed by the old Teng Snake in one move. Anyone who is associated with the word "Emperor" is extraordinary and above all living beings.

The remains of the Teng Snake are arguably the most valuable item in the treasure trove. If properly refined, they could definitely be transformed into a quasi-emperor's battle armor.

However, the Black Emperor wasted resources and squandered them. He borrowed an imperial weapon, cut off a piece of divine skin, and forged a pair of golden snakeskin shorts for himself, replacing his original flowery shorts. For a moment, the shorts were dazzling with golden light, incredibly flashy.

"How could God have created such a thing?"

Ye Fan was speechless and couldn't help but raise his middle finger in utter contempt.

"What do you know? I'm leading the trend of the universe!" the Black Emperor said nonchalantly. "There are still some God Skins left. Do you want me to make a few for you too?"

The princes all shook their heads, saying that it was shameful to go out wearing such things and would bring disgrace to the emperor.

It is only because the Black Emperor is not a prince, but occupies the ecological niche of a prince, that he can be so arrogant.

After dividing up the treasure, Black Emperor's eyes darted around, and he set his sights on the ancestral tomb of the Teng Snake clan, thinking to himself, "If that fatso were here, maybe we could dig up the bones of the Teng Snake Supreme."

"Have some decency!" Ye Fan sighed, looking up at the sky, unable to bear the sight.

"I'm a dog, not a human." Black King scoffed. As long as it had no morals, it didn't need to be morally blackmailed.

Lin Xian shook his head and commented, "One shouldn't be too much like Duan De in life, nor too much like Hei Huang in life!"

"Are you in or not?!"

Black Emperor coughed lightly and said, "Don't think I don't know. You two are already Source Masters. Feng Shui is no challenge for you."

"Well, we're going to pay our respects to the ruins of our supreme predecessor."

Lin Xian corrected him, saying that he wanted to conduct valuable archaeological research to explore the history of the Lingbao Tianzun era and reveal the truth to all living beings.

The Holy Body is an invincible path; more bones mean more paths.

"Hey kid, are you going or not?"

Black Emperor waved its large claws, beckoning to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan shook his head. He went deep underground not to dig up graves or rob tombs, but to search for the secrets of the Tengshe clan sealed in the divine source, to eliminate them completely and prevent future troubles.

The Tengshe clan has a profound foundation, with many saints, including a great saint, but none of them could stop Ye Fan. They were all blown apart by his punches.

"The cycle of six realms of reincarnation, the cycle of birth and death!"

Ye Fan shouted, and a divine disc appeared behind him, spinning and reflecting the heavens, melting all the worlds into a single fist.

He became even stronger, his essence, energy, and spirit reached their peak, and he naturally stepped into the eighth level of the Saint King realm!
"A formidable rival on the road to the throne."

"If he were to reach the Great Sage realm, wouldn't he be able to single-handedly defeat a Quasi-Emperor?"

The group of imperial princes changed color again, feeling that the gap between themselves and Ye Fan was widening, until it became unattainable.

Black Emperor and Lin Xian wandered around the Teng Snake Ancestral Tomb and found several sacred tombs, but they did not find any large tombs of quasi-emperors, so they did not start digging.

The Heavenly Court and the Tengshe clan have a feud, but it hasn't reached the point of annihilating them.

"Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise, and there is a sequence to learning the truth."

Lin Xian sighed, thinking that professionals should be left to do professional things. If Duan De had been here today, the man and the dog wouldn't have left empty-handed.

"It's a pity that we, the Four Heroes of Heaven, cannot meet under the stars."

Black King also sighed. Then its dog nose twitched, its eyes lit up, it licked its tongue, and howled, "Such a rich aroma of meat, far surpassing ordinary sacred beast meat!"

You can't dig up the tomb of the quasi-emperor, but you can eat his flesh.

Ye Fan returned from hunting, carrying a string of large and small snakes. He used the Xuanhuang Mother Qi Cauldron to stew a pot of snake soup in the starry sky. The soup was fragrant and full of essence. He then used True Fire to roast the meat. The medicinal power contained in the flesh and blood of the Quasi-Emperor was crystal clear, containing endless radiance and possessing great life energy.

"Good meat must be served with wine!"

Lin Xian shouted and led everyone back to the tenth level of the human race, opening the immortal treasure left by the Dao Venerable. In the first ancient well, a holy white lotus slowly bloomed, with a stone token floating in and out, and the rest were immortal wine made from the blood and flesh of holy spirits.

The Quasi-Emperor Tengshe was killed by them, and the other Great Saints were no match for the Three Mad Daoists and others. When Lin Xian and his group returned, the cultivators of all races scattered and retreated to other star fields to wait for an opportunity.

"This great victory is entirely due to the concerted efforts of everyone!" Ye Fan clasped his hands in a bow and discussed with the princes of the emperor that they should take out all the immortal liquid from the first well, not keeping a single drop, and use it all to hold a grand banquet to boost morale and inspire the people.

Everyone agreed that after the victory, it was necessary to celebrate and take the opportunity to reward the heroes.

When Black Emperor took on this task, he had a wealth of experience from his time with Emperor Wushi, when he had held countless banquets in Yaochi, relying on his master's power and indulging in lavish feasts.

In an instant, the tenth level of the human race was filled with immortal energy, like a light veil rising up, with rays of light spreading across the earth, illuminating the entire palace in a golden splendor, just like a celestial realm.

The crowd toasted and laughed, and amidst the clinking of glasses, waiters brought out various delicacies and fine wines. Each person received a piece of Tengshe meat that had been refined to neutralize its murderous aura.

The flesh and blood of a quasi-emperor contained abundant energy, which was rare in the human world. Just one bite was enough to burst a saint. During the event, there were many cultivators who broke through continuously, which triggered several tribulations of lightning, pushing the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax!

No one was restrained anymore, and they devoured the food and drinks like crazy.

Even the ethereal and otherworldly Saint Primordial was much more unrestrained that day, abandoning his aloofness. His once cool and handsome face gradually became rounder, full of auspiciousness. The other imperial princes' bellies were also enlarged by Master Ye, and they let out a few burps.

"Fine wine, divine wine!"

The white-haired Great Sage Qinghuang was radiant with health, as if he had been rejuvenated. His muscles and bones were incredibly active. The power of the Great Perfection Holy Spirit was truly domineering, forcibly prolonging the life of this old man who was nearing the end of his life.

The Great Sage's eight thousand years of age is not his end; he is expected to live to nine thousand years and rival a Quasi-Emperor!

"Congratulations, Ancestor! Your name will be etched in history!"

The disciples and grand-disciples of the Great Sage Qinghuang stepped forward to offer their congratulations. This was the creation of a myth and a miracle, breaking the limits of the human body, and representing the ultimate achievement of the Great Sage in some respects.

From now on, although Daoist Qinghuang will not be a Quasi-Emperor, he will far surpass other Quasi-Emperors and stand shoulder to shoulder with the ancient Great Emperors, and will be frequently mentioned by cultivators of later generations.

In an era where immortality is impossible, to live on in the hearts of all living beings, to be praised by the world, and to be remembered by all races is also a kind of immortality.

"What a potent medicine! I have tasted the indomitable will of the Holy Spirit."

"It is truly the spirit of the Holy Spirit."

Lin Xian swirled his wine cup, and dozens of drops of five-colored immortal liquid flowed and condensed in the amber-colored glass, sparkling and dazzling. With just a gentle sip, one could sense the power of the Holy Spirit exploding, and the immortal will danced on the taste buds of the tongue, lingering for a long time.

Although the celestial wine goes down the throat, its aftertaste is endless and its lingering flavor is long-lasting.

Products made by Daozun are guaranteed to be of the highest quality!
This is a wine with a soul!
