In the heavens, people become emperors by being bad.

Chapter 582 [A Grand Dream: Who Wakes Up First?]

Can Emperor Cheng salvage everything?

Ye Fan sighed, hating that the heavens had taken away ten thousand years of his life, causing him to miss that glorious and brilliant era, that golden age, a time when stars shone brightly, heroes vied for supremacy, emperors and princes danced together, and ancient supreme beings eyed him covetously. All that splendor had been buried.

Tai Chu, Zhang Bairen, Emperor, Dao Yi, Holy Prince, one brilliant name after another, and Luan Gu, Jin Wu, Gai Jiuyou, all peerless powerhouses, where are they now?
Who is the peak at the end of the immortal road? Seeing the beginningless path becomes empty!

Originally full of pride, it now evokes melancholy upon rereading. From being an enemy of the world, to being invincible in heaven and on earth, and then to being utterly silent in the world, what a cruelty this is.

The mindset of the great emperors of antiquity was not one of invincibility, but of loneliness.

Walking the path of immortality alone, it's no wonder that there are so many supreme beings in the mortal world who protect all living beings but cannot protect their relatives and friends. Their Dao hearts gradually turn from light to coldness. When they live a second life, with no more ties or attachments, it becomes only natural for them to escape into forbidden zones.

“What you keep in mind will surely come back to you. The Emperor of Humanity is beyond redemption, but the Emperor of Immortality may have a way.”

Lin Xian said in a low voice, "There was once a person who encountered a situation similar to yours."

"Desolate? The Desolate Heavenly Emperor!"

Ye Fan's eyes flashed with divine light, his previously confused Dao heart was swept away, and he looked down on the Immortal Path, piercing through the Nine Heavens. The Holy Lord Lin was a hero of the Chaotic Ancient Era, and he knew more secrets than the legendary Desolate Emperor.

In the chaotic ancient era, only the Desolate Heavenly Emperor became an immortal. Perhaps after the path to immortality, the situation will be very different.

"If there is no result in the human world, then let us go to the end of immortality and ask for the truth."

Lin Xian shouted and pointed to the immortal herbs planted on the sacred cliff: "These are all immortals who have fallen in the past. They have a glimmer of hope for survival. The immortal path is immortal. It is not just a saying. They really have that kind of vitality. Even if the era turns, the world is destroyed, and the universe is reborn, their imprint will still remain."

"Immortal Path?"

"I have severed ties with the mortal world and now pursue immortality and the Dao."

Ye Fan murmured to himself, gradually breaking free from the deathly silence. His eyes shone brightly like fire, as if a sword had been drawn from its sheath and pierced through the nine heavens. He had rekindled his Dao heart, determined to ascend to the Immortal Realm, demand an answer, and investigate the truth of reincarnation.

The path to immortality is based on the Great Emperor, because the Heavenly Heart Mark contains the mysteries of the universe. Without thoroughly exploring this universe, how can one transcend it?

"This life is not the end. I will continue the path of the Holy Body that was severed. I will become an emperor!"

Ye Fan roared, as if a celestial king had descended from the heavens, looking down at the vast starry sky. With a single thought, he could move the heavens and earth, and hold the sun and moon, the universe, the mountains and rivers, the grass and trees, the boundless starry river, and all the creation and life force in his palm.

He embarked on an invincible path. In this universe, the Heavenly Emperor disappeared, all the immortal artifacts vanished, and even the Supreme Beings perished. No power could stop a Great Accomplished Saint Body.

He had already achieved the Nine Heavens of the Sacred Body, and then his flawless crimson blood could kill even the Supreme Being, ultimately achieving a unique path to enlightenment that rivaled that of the Great Emperor.

Countless years have passed, and with the blessings of countless creations in the universe, Ye Fan's aura has grown increasingly magnificent. Finally, the Immortal Platform shimmered with heavenly light, as if the universe had shattered and the world had been created!
A great dragon rose up along Ye Fan's spine, drawing upon the power of the Yin-Yang Wheel Sea and seizing the immortal essence of the Five Elements Dao Palace. Its four limbs and claws also obtained supreme blood energy from the four extremes, nurturing the Dao embryo. They resonated together, as if they were flying immortals.

His physical body shone brightly, like a Kunpeng transforming, sweeping across the nine heavens, and with a final leap, he was about to become a Heavenly Emperor!
With a whoosh, the Great Emperor's Tribulation traversed countless star rivers, its brilliance dazzling, intertwining with the unique Dao Fruit. Immortal light illuminated heaven and earth, spreading across the endless void, a vast expanse of white.

Ye Fan slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the golden sea before him, the dazzling universe, and the brilliant starry river, unchanged. He sighed and said, "Who will wake up first from this great dream?"

This is not an illusion, but a glimpse of the future, a possibility on the timeline, glimpsed through the perfect completion of the Xingzi Secret and the Qianzi Secret.

Ye Fan did not truly achieve great success either. It was the Holy Body Ancestor who bestowed upon him his past experiences. The last scene he saw was the Holy Body Ancestor failing to transcend the Great Emperor Tribulation, which brought the dream to an end.

"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows, all shaped by the six consciousnesses, arising from causes and conditions, and ceasing due to causes and conditions. So-called cause and effect are impermanent, and one should abide nowhere and give rise to the mind."

Sitting opposite, Lin Xian suddenly spoke, a trace of vicissitude flowing deep in his eyes. Being able to resonate with the Emperor's Heart of the Holy Body Ancestor is a value that no immortal treasure can compare to. It is equivalent to truly experiencing ten thousand years and undergoing a hundred years of tempering to make up for the last shortcoming.

"When falsehood is taken for truth, even truth becomes falsehood; when nothingness is taken for existence, even existence becomes nothingness. The realms are different, but the heart is real, and the emotion is real."

Ye Fan seemed to be deep in thought. He brandished the Emperor Fist, manifesting his own Dao and Dharma, breaking through the vacuum, and shouted: "And this power is also real. All illusions are real. The physical body becomes real, crossing the sea of ​​suffering and reaching the other shore!"

The blood energy roared and thundered, one after another the chains of divine order fell, and the red lotus of karmic fire descended, cleansing the body of the quasi-emperor.

The golden divine sea surged, and the ancestor unleashed streaks of crimson light that flew toward Ye Fan, making his aura even stronger.

"First Heaven, Second Heaven, Third Heaven... Quasi-Emperor Sixth Heaven!"

"A physical body at the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm!"

A strange look appeared in Lin Xian's eyes. He knew that this level of physical strength was already the pinnacle in the mortal world. The next level would be a high-level quasi-emperor, whose every move could be seen by the supreme beings of the forbidden zones.

The Great Accomplishment Holy Body can be considered a small dragon, the Quasi-Emperor of the Ninth Heaven can be considered a young dragon, and the Great Tribulation of the Eighth Heaven is a transformation towards becoming a giant dragon.

In the eyes of the Supreme Being, a Quasi-Emperor of the Seventh Heaven is no longer an ant, but a dragon egg that is extremely nourishing; swallowing it is comparable to absorbing the essence of an ancient life star.

Holy blood boiled like a long river, bones creaked and cracked, and with the blessing of many laws, it already contained six parts crimson blood!

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Fan exhaled radiant light, absorbed the essence of the universe, and was bathed in celestial light, appearing as if a god had been born, incomparably holy.

The moment he opened his mouth, he ruined the sacred atmosphere.

"Xiao Lin, do you see how much I resemble my former self?" Ye Fan stood with his hands behind his back, speaking calmly with an air of supreme authority.

Lin Xian was slightly taken aback, feeling that the tone was familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

"At the sixth level of Quasi-Emperor, without the Supreme Being present, who can contend with us!"

Ye Fan was filled with heroic spirit. With his quasi-emperor body and the divine forbidden domain, he should be considered a peerless master in this world. A person who is about to achieve great success is enough to suppress the four seas and eight wastelands and dominate the nine heavens and ten earths.

"No matter how strong your physical body is, you're a crippled Quasi-Emperor. I see you as an old Teng Snake, a target for sale."

Lin Xian sneered, telling Ye Fan to attack freely, and that if he made even one more move, he would consider it a loss.

"Really?"

Ye Fan moved like lightning, as if a golden phoenix were dancing. All the runes of the heavens gathered in his palm. He was on a completely different level from the Great Sage. His body was comprehensively improved in all aspects, and his combat power increased by a lot. He was absolutely terrifying and few in the world could rival him!

With a single palm strike, he was unparalleled. Someone like the old Tengshe, a half-step quasi-emperor, would probably be directly turned into a bloody mist. Even a true flawless quasi-emperor would not be able to withstand it and would need to be extremely cautious.

Lin Xian remained calm and composed, standing tall like a mountain and as steady as the abyss. His blood and qi surged throughout his body, and countless laws of the Great Dao surrounded him. He was in a mysterious and profound state, where his essence, qi, and spirit were perfectly united, and he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

He slowly extended a finger, which, as if sculpted from mutton-fat jade, shimmered with celestial light, suppressing the mortal world and looking down upon the world.

"Boom!"

Golden seas rippled, starry skies shattered, and flowers of the Great Dao bloomed in the void, shining brightly before withering away.

Amidst the dazzling light, Ye Fan's eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed in a deep voice, "Divine Restriction?!" How could this be? How could Holy Master Lin possess a Divine Restriction? Even if Duan De had revealed this domain, Ye Fan wouldn't have been this shocked.

But he is Lin Xian!
"It's nothing remarkable for us geniuses to display divine power; it's just basic professionalism."

Lin Xian stood with his hands behind his back, exuding a nonchalant air of superiority, like a deity reigning over the universe.

Those who don't know the situation might really think he's an invincible imperial prince.

"Illusion?"

Ye Fan refused to believe in evil and used several more divine techniques to manifest multiple Dao bodies to conceal and confuse the enemy. His true self attacked with pure physical divine power, shaking the universe, but Lin Xian calmly blocked them all.

At this moment, Ye Fan had to admit that this was indeed a divine restriction, and he was very familiar with it after being in this field for many years.

"My lord is in this world, what fear is there of rise and fall!"

Lin Xian roared, his black hair flowing freely, his blood energy soaring to the heavens, his cold eyes flashing like lightning. He was bathed in immortal energy, his holy body unparalleled, shining in a golden sky, as if an ancient celestial being had descended to earth, exuding supreme majesty.

A golden primordial spirit manifested, embarking on the path to the supreme emperor, and was favored by the Mandate of Heaven.

"I understand, it's that eternal dream."

Ye Fan sighed. The Holy Body Ancestor had favored him, and not only had he benefited, but Lin Xian was also undergoing trials to cultivate immortality in the mortal world.

The Holy Body is at the Ninth Heaven, comparable to the Emperor's Body, which is the Supreme Being. The so-called Divine Restriction is merely the basic quality of a Supreme Being.

Since that's the case, then let's fight against divine restrictions with divine prohibitions.

"The Three Bodies Return!"

Ye Fan shouted loudly, merging his manifested Pure Qi Dao Body into one, and launched an attack stepping on galaxies. His combat power soared, and the Nine Secrets were activated, aiming to unleash ten times the combat power.

As the two quasi-emperors clashed, blood blossoms bloomed, the laws of the Great Dao collided, and the universe trembled.

However, Ye Fan's body and spirit were not in harmony, preventing him from reaching the perfect state of essence, energy, and spirit. There were many disharmonious aspects, which delayed his ability to trigger the divine restriction.

The divine restriction was not manifest, remaining within the Eight Forbidden Domains, which prevented his most powerful technique, the All-Word Secret, from operating, and the Heavenly Emperor Fist from unleashing its full power.

"Your foundation is weak, and your realm is advancing too quickly, so you can't even trigger the divine restriction."

Lin Xian smiled knowingly and said jokingly, "All the methods in the world are just means. True strength comes from within. You are too eager for quick success and do not understand the profound meaning of our divine prohibitions."

In an instant, Ye Fan's face turned green; these words sounded so awkward.

Is this right? Is this right?
Is this the kind of thing Lord Lin should say?!

It is simply the opposite of Tiangang.

After exchanging about a thousand more blows, Ye Fan realized that his realm was unstable because his origin was too abundant. It was a supplement from the Holy Body Ancestor, not his own tempering, and he needed a certain amount of time to adjust.

To advance six levels of cultivation in one go, especially to the level of a Quasi-Emperor, would shake even the most unparalleled genius.

It is only because Ye Fan has undergone countless trials that he can still maintain the Eight Forbidden Domains. Other imperial sons would probably not even have the Eight Forbidden Domains.

"Defy the immortals and vanquish them! Today is the day!"

Lin Xian roared, determined to defy Ye Fan and dominate this era. The Time Blade in his hand gleamed, shimmering with light. A divine aura spread out, covering the heavens and earth.

"Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist!"

Ye Fan was bathed in golden light, which manifested as six black hole universes. He was like a god, suppressing those below him with his supreme power and invincible physical body. As his realm increased, supernatural powers naturally came into being.

Even if it's just physical strength, a Quasi-Emperor at the sixth level is still a top expert in the mortal world. His Dao principles are brilliant, his radiance is boundless, his fist intent is invincible, and his blood is boiling.

At this moment, Ye Fan roared and fought fiercely, without using any other wonderful methods or combat skills. He only had a kind of primal resonance, releasing the most primitive physical power, which caused the golden divine sea to tremble, and even the Holy Body Ancestor responded.

"Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique!"

Lin Xian shouted loudly and also used the Samsara Dao Technique. With a wave of his hand, six invincible imperial techniques were unleashed: the Great Void Technique, the Word of Movement Secret, the Azure Lotus Imperial Technique, and the One Thought Flower Blooms to Rule the World... These techniques were mysterious and profound, controlling all the stars and all things in the universe.

In an instant, amidst the bustling prosperity, the flowers of the Great Road bloomed, incomparably magnificent.

"The primordial spirit merges with the Dao, and one can control time."

Ye Fan also possessed great wisdom. Knowing that the divine restriction could not be opened, he decided to use the methods of the Holy Master Lin to defeat him. His brow glowed, and his golden primordial spirit stepped on the cauldron, activating the "Form" and "Move" secrets to unleash the power of time and suppress Lin Xian!
"How dare you use my secret technique to attack me!"

Lin Xian laughed in extreme anger, and in an instant, countless Dao bodies manifested, changing from eight to nine, approaching the Dao of Heaven and Earth, evolving into divine beasts such as the Fighting Saint Ape, the Nine Heavens True Dragon, the Five-Colored Immortal Phoenix, and the Yin-Yang Kunpeng, fighting through time and dividing the years.

The divine beasts shouted in unison, and in an instant, they unleashed three thousand six hundred strikes, each one different, reflecting the cycle of birth and death of the Great Dao.

"Rise!" Ye Fan shouted. The Xuanhuang Mother Qi Cauldron soared into the sky, resisting the Time Emperor Blade, while he used the Xingzi Secret Technique to continuously close the distance with Lin Xian.

In the battle of Daoist arts, Lord Lin possesses too many imperial techniques and is invincible. Only by getting close can one have a sliver of hope.

When Ye Fan got close, Lin Xian took out her imperial weapon without hesitation. When traveling, one should always carry a powerful weapon with them.

"when!"

As Ye Fan collided with the Dragon Stele, a green lotus suddenly flew out from within his body, taking root on the golden forbidden sea, swaying gently, dissolving the Imperial Dao Realm, and pacifying the world's bloodshed.

"Grow green lotus from the sea of ​​suffering!"

"The Azure Emperor's backup plan!"

The two were immediately startled and stopped what they were doing, staring at the blue lotus flower. It had three leaves, which were a vibrant green, with a hazy, primordial aura that seemed to have been created at the beginning of time. It exuded an aura of supreme power.

Gai Jiuyou, far away in the Heavenly Soldiers Ancient Starfield, suddenly looked up and gazed into the distance. His heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to fly out of his body.

The golden divine sea surged, sensing the life-giving energy, almost transforming the green lotus into a golden lotus.

"This golden divine sea, is it alive?" Ye Fan was startled, recalling the events of the past and pondering the details of the Great Dream of Ten Thousand Years.

"If we use the remains of the Great Perfection Sacred Body to support this golden sea, and then supplement the Azure Emperor's Heart," Lin Xian said softly, "could it achieve Great Perfection?"
