In the heavens, people become emperors by being bad.

Chapter 645 [I am not yet fully accomplished; once I am, everything will change]

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Fan's expression changed drastically. A look of astonishment flashed between his brows, followed by a surge of various emotions. His face was covered in bruises, reds, and greens, as if he had opened a dye shop.

"Why go to such lengths and perform such a grand ceremony? Please rise quickly."

Lin Xian smiled and said she was getting up, but she didn't actually intend to help anyone up. Instead, she took out the equipment from the Eternal Star Domain and took a commemorative photo.

"This...is not scientific!"

Ye Fan was so emotional that he even blurted out his hometown dialect, which showed that he really couldn't hold back anymore.

"So-called science is nothing more than induction and summarization, building upon the foundations laid by predecessors and developing its own branches."

Lin Xian emphasized that if there is one, there will be two. Since Ye Fan can reach the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor, it is only reasonable for him to advance to the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor as well.

The saying goes, "A single piece of evidence is insufficient," but now that there are two examples, it's much more normal.

"A high-level quasi-emperor who's over a hundred years old? You're a complete idiot!"

Ye Fan cursed, pointing at Lin Xian indignantly, and said through gritted teeth, "Are you still going to talk about the secret realm method? You are subverting the ancient history of cultivation and are the evil culprit who has destroyed the Dao heart of cultivators throughout the ages."

"Aren't you only a hundred years old?"

Lin Xian was speechless. He used the Battle Saint Technique to conjure a Void Mirror and handed it to Ye Fan, indicating that he should look in the mirror and say something like, "Aren't you ashamed to say that? You are the real Demon King of the Emperor's Road."

"That's not the same!"

Ye Fan retorted that in this life he had been trembling with fear, walking on thin ice, experiencing countless bloody battles, fighting against supreme beings, fighting against ancient emperors, and even suppressing the Undying Daoist, his life filled with sweat and tears.

Such achievements, though somewhat outrageous, are also within reason.

In contrast, Lord Lin is simply cheating, subverting the understanding of all living beings in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

"It's definitely different."

Lin Xian thought for a moment, then nodded seriously and said, "Your cultivation is the result of hard work and trials, so your foundation is weak. My cultivation, on the other hand, is a gift from heaven and comes naturally. The difference in skill is immediately apparent!"

"I believe you ghost!"

Ye Fan roared, and the blood energy of his seventh-level holy body was like a vast ocean, penetrating the nine heavens. The universe and starry sky trembled, as if the emperor had reappeared, surpassing all previous and present, possessing an incredible power.

Like an ancient emperor, he resided in the forbidden realm of gods, with wisps of supreme aura emanating from him, radiating brilliance. Every ray of immortal light was enough to annihilate a quasi-emperor, making him terrifying to the extreme.

The next moment, the All-Encompassing Secret was activated, and the imperial aura became even stronger, causing the old ghosts in the forbidden zone to change color.

"Young people these days are truly remarkable!"

Countless supreme beings rose from the dead, doing sit-ups and sitting up, sealing themselves within their divine sources and gazing at Ye Fan from afar, their hearts heavy, as if recalling their younger selves.

When they were at the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor, their strength was extraordinary, and they could kill experts at the ninth level. However, they definitely did not have the aura of Ye Fan, who was infinitely close to the Supreme.

"Truly, he is the reincarnation of the Emperor, the supreme being in Nirvana."

There are also ancient relics left over from the mythological era, such as the Eternal Heavenly Venerable and the Corpse Emperor, who nodded secretly, saying that there was no other explanation besides this one.

He is the reincarnation of a former celestial being, who attained enlightenment three times, thus possessing such terrifying combat power.

"Is that all? That's really disappointing."

The golden light, powerful enough to kill a quasi-emperor of the Ninth Heaven with a single punch, swept towards them, but Lin Xian remained completely calm. His speed was so fast that it rivaled time itself. With every gesture, immortal light shone forth, and his robes fluttered, exuding an indescribable sense of freedom and ease.

A complex emotion flickered in the eyes of the carefree Celestial Venerable, who sat opposite the Myriad Dragon Emperor in the Holy City. It was as if he saw his younger self, equally invincible, equally domineering over the heavens and earth, and equally youthful and passionate.

When did everything start to change?
Is it the first time your blood and energy decline, the first gray hair appears, or the moment you cut yourself?

"Take this!"

Lin Xian shouted, and a waterfall of immortal light flew from his fingertips, crystal clear and dazzling the heavens. It not only awakened the carefree Heavenly Venerable, but also made the old ghost in the forbidden area tremble and cry out in surprise.

"Light of time!"

That was a divine technique that could threaten them, specifically designed to counter the Elderly Supreme, and it was incredibly insidious.

Every Supreme Being who had severed their own life had a grim expression at this moment; Lin Xian posed an even greater threat than the Carefree Heavenly Venerable.

Although the Celestial Venerable of Freedom is powerful, he is ultimately old. If he does not reach the ultimate level of sublimation, he will not be able to unleash many beams of time light.

Lin Xian was a little weaker, and could only unleash one or two beams of Time Light at full power. However, he was still young and on the rise, like a rising sun, incredibly brilliant. The next 20,000 to 30,000 years would be his era!

"If we wait until he becomes emperor, who can control him!"

"And there's also the Heavenly Court Lord, Emperor Ye, who is also a formidable enemy of the forbidden zone."

"The path to immortality is only a few years away, so we need to prepare early."

The exchange of divine thoughts within the forbidden zone of life was exceptionally frequent. Some supreme beings who originally did not intend to emerge into the world sensed the threat to their lives and prepared to band together.

More than thirty supreme beings are a force that no one can ignore. If they were to rebel, the entire universe would be reduced to ruins.

"Heavenly Emperor Fist!"

Ye Fan's battle cry resounded throughout the universe, radiating golden light, like a celestial emperor rising and reigning supreme over the nine heavens and ten earths.

"Chaos Heavenly Blade!"

Lin Xian countered with a backhand strike, transforming his palm into a blade. This was a great supernatural power he had created by observing the Heavenly Emperor's Daoist arts and borrowing scriptures from the Heavenly Emperor's son.

The blade gleamed with light, a manifestation of the creation of the world, giving rise to a vast universe and the birth of all things and galaxies.

The two supreme beings fought from the Big Dipper to the edge of the universe, and then back from the edge of the universe to the Big Dipper. With every move they made, chaotic energy surged, and even the Great Dao was obliterated.

Fortunately, both of them exercised restraint; otherwise, the aftershocks of the battle alone could have caused the Beidou Ancient Starfield to explode.

Near the Starfield Battlefield, many bloodthirsty saints gathered to watch, shouting that witnessing such a battle was worth dying for, which made people sigh that the myriad realms of the heavens were truly full of wonders.

Many beings at the level of imperial princes came, such as Huang Xudao, Huo Linzi and his sister, Wanlongnu, and the Divine Prince... There were also Zhang Bairen, the Emperor, and others who came from beyond the realm.

The strongest among them is already at the peak of the Great Sage realm, just one step away from becoming a Quasi-Emperor, while the weakest is still hovering around the Saint King realm.

These descendants and disciples of the enlightened beings of the past, now self-proclaimed as enlightened ones, stared blankly at the two freaks in the sky, their lips twitching and their eyes glazed over.

"Are we really going to compete with this guy for the throne in this lifetime?"

An ancient prince who had come from beyond the realm said with a wry smile, "Father, you really think highly of me."

What is a golden age? This is a golden age!

The one who attained the Great Sagehood at the age of one hundred was already a person of extraordinary talent and destined to become an emperor.

In this life, the Great Sage, the Imperial Prince, is barely a supporting character. He has obtained an entry ticket and is expected to become a background character who provides commentary on the battlefield.

They used their extensive knowledge inherited from their fathers to depict the brilliance and splendor of this world.

"Boom!"

Finally, Lin Xian unleashed a Heavenly Dao Fist from the heavens, carrying the mark of ten thousand immortals. Its fierce power was earth-shattering, like a chaotic universe collapsing and suppressing Ye Fan, knocking him down to the mortal realm and blasting him back into the Sacred Cliff. The black mountain was shattered by the impact of the Ancient Sacred Body, even the Beginningless Emperor Mark was obliterated, leaving behind a huge, deep pit, as abyss as the heavens.

The imperial formation presided over by the Investiture of the Gods experienced a slight tremor, allowing the seasoned Immortal Daoist to emerge, transforming into a raven and attempting to fly out of the Sacred Cliff Mountains.

"what are you doing?"

"Get back!"

A golden light shot into the sky, and Ye Fan leaped out of the pit. His black hair was disheveled, and he was covered in dust, looking quite disheveled. However, his eyes were like lightning as he coldly swept over the Undying Daoist's primordial spirit. The next second, he unleashed the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, shattering eternity and overwhelming the supreme being.

"How dare you, junior, bully me like this!"

The crows burst open, their black feathers scattering across the sky and earth like chicken feathers. The Undying Daoist's primordial spirit, deep within the Sacred Cliff, was enraged, roaring with fury, "If you had physical bodies, you would be nothing but a bunch of ants..."

“You don’t have a physical body, but I do have a fully-fledged holy body.”

Ye Fan coldly said, moving the corpse of the Great Perfection Saint Body of the Holy Cliff, and sat down beside the Undying Daoist, personally suppressing that trace of the Emperor's Mark loophole.

In an instant, the incessantly chattering Immortal Taoist fell silent.

Although the Imperial Formation had a flaw, the exit point of that flaw was a Great Perfection Saint Body, which was even more terrifying than having no flaw at all.

"An inherently evil old man."

Ye Fan snorted coldly, stood atop the black mountain, gazed at the heavens beyond, and shouted: "Come in if you dare!"

"Do you think I'm stupid?"

Lin Xian's lips twitched. With the Great Perfection Saint Body, this thing was much tougher than an Emperor Artifact. Even the Undying Daoist would get beaten up, let alone him. After all, he was not a true Chaos Emperor and could not achieve true invincibility.

So Lin Xian stood outside the Sacred Cliff, raised a middle finger, and mocked, "Come out if you dare."

"Come in!"

"Come out!"

"I can suppress the ruler of the Heavenly Court with a single hand; who else in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths can rival me!"

"I have not yet achieved great success; once I achieve great success, everything will change!"

Two of the strongest beings in the world were actually cursing like shrewish women near the Holy Cliff, making many powerful figures from the Heavenly Court blush with embarrassment. They were reluctant to admit that these two were actually the leaders of the Heavenly Court.

"I want to compete with these two for the title of Emperor and coexist with them for one lifetime?"

One of the princes shook his head, feeling that his reputation had been tarnished.

"Heaven has no eyes, actually allowing such a guy to attain the quasi-emperor level."

The father of the Great Sage Qianlun, a dragon headdress of a Quasi-Emperor with the Supreme Dao Imperial Weapon at its peak, complained to his clansmen, "I have endured countless tribulations to finally fuse the Yin and Yang power of the human and demon and break through the Quasi-Emperor barrier..."

"What did you say?"

Lin Xian's sinister voice rang out as he walked behind the Quasi-Emperor Old Dragon.

"I mean, how come Lord Lin is only a quasi-emperor? He should be the supreme emperor now!"

The old patriarch of Wanlong Nest felt a chill run through his body, and was drenched in cold sweat. He almost roared out, "Heaven is blind and has wronged Lord Lin."

"You're smart enough to know what's good for you." Lin Xian nodded in satisfaction. Out of respect for the Myriad Dragon Emperor, he didn't touch the Quasi-Emperor Old Dragon, but simply kicked him away and exiled him to the end of the starry sky. Then, he took the Myriad Dragon Bell and continued to challenge the Holy Cliff.

The Quasi-Emperor of the Myriad Dragon Nest went through a great deal of trouble, breaking through layer after layer of space, before finally escaping from the edge of the universe.

"Father, you're back!" Upon seeing the old dragon return, the Great Sage Qianlun breathed a sigh of relief, invited the old dragon to sit down, and comforted him, "Lord Lin had no intention of killing..."

"Don't mention that name!"

The old dragon quasi-emperor roared, his face deathly pale. He only dared to speak because he was under the protection of the supreme imperial weapon.

But Lin Xian appeared and kicked him away. What does that mean? Even the power of a royal artifact couldn't stop Lin Xian. This is terrifying; it's practically a ghost story.

Is this still a quasi-emperor? If he doesn't get nerfed, is the game even playable?!
"If we don't mention names, what should we mention..." Qianlun Dasheng was at a loss, somewhat helpless: "Should we call that person?"

"The Supreme One's name must not be mentioned!"

The Quasi-Emperor of the Myriad Dragon Nest took a deep breath, recalling the customs of the ancient times, and gradually regained some of his vitality. His face was no longer so pale, and he said with utmost caution, "From now on, you must not mention the names of the three leaders of the Heavenly Court."

"The three leaders of the Heavenly Court."

The Great Sage Qianlun was slightly taken aback, then recalled the news of the Heavenly Court's recapture of the Underworld not long ago, and said thoughtfully, "One is the ruler of the Underworld, the former Lord of the Underworld, one is the ruler of the Heavenly Court, the reincarnation of the Emperor, and what should the last one be called?"

"Lord of the Underworld, Heavenly Emperor, Immortal Venerable!"

The old man of the Great Sage Qianlun said decisively, "From now on, the Myriad Dragon Nest will enshrine three immortal deities, on par with the Myriad Dragon Emperor Ancestor. You will personally handle this matter."

"Yes." The Great Sage Qianlun nodded solemnly, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.

"By the way..." After giving these instructions, the old dragon quasi-emperor calmed down a bit and asked, "Where is Little Ancestor? I want to go with her family to visit the Immortal Venerable and apologize."

"My ancestor is in the Holy City, accompanying the First Ancestor," said the Great Sage Qianlun cautiously. "As for the Immortal Venerable, it seems he has gone to the Spirit Ruins Grotto-Heaven."

"Lingxu Cave Heaven, what kind of place is that?"

The Quasi-Emperor of the Myriad Dragon Nest was somewhat confused. Could it be that he was newly born and lacked knowledge, and had never heard of this pure land? So he asked, "Is this a forbidden zone for human life?"

“No,” said the Great Sage Qianlun with a strange expression. “It is a sect of the human race.”

"Sects." The Quasi-Emperor of Wanlong Nest said thoughtfully, "Holy lands like Yaoguang are similar to our ancient royal families."

Since the true identity of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone was exposed, the status of the Yao Guang Holy Land has become more and more prominent day by day.

Originally at the bottom of the hierarchy of the Great Emperor's lineage, Yao Guang possessed only an imperial weapon but lacked inheritance and foundation. Now, it has suddenly taken off.

What kind of profound foundation is more terrifying than a living emperor?

Although the Empress is unlikely to take action for the sake of the Yao Guang Holy Land, who would dare to gamble? At least the Quasi-Emperor doesn't have that courage.

For a time, Yao Guang seemed poised to become the second holy land in the Eastern Wilderness, while the first holy land was naturally Tian Xuan.

……

Beyond the Big Dipper, the Eastern Wilderness, and the Lingxu Cave Heaven, the group revisited their familiar surroundings with a refined air, strolling through the mountains and fields like ordinary people, appreciating the famous historical sites.

As for the minor sect Lingxu Cave Heaven, its famous scenic spots and historical sites are naturally related to the Great Emperor.

"Please look, everyone. This is the Spirit Ruins Grotto-Heaven, which contains many imperial relics. Although the large blue stone in front of the mountain gate looks ordinary and unremarkable, it was actually dug out by the Heavenly Emperor himself."

"What do you mean, which Heavenly Emperor? It's naturally the reincarnation of our Emperor, Emperor Ye."

"What? You're not interested in the Ye Tiandi Ruins? No problem, the Qingdi Ruins are right next door."

Lin Xian spoke eloquently, pointing to the ruins near the Spirit Ruins Cave Heaven, and said with a smile, "That used to be the tomb of the Azure Emperor."
