Man is covering the sky, the system is perfect

The cold starlight shone through the stained glass windows of the Heavenly Palace, falling on Ye Fan's resolute yet somewhat bewildered face.

He stood alone in the hall, his body radiating a dragon-like aura, roaring within him—his ancient holy body was nearing completion.

Once he reaches his full potential, he will be able to challenge the great emperors of antiquity.

At this moment, however, this holy body, which is renowned throughout the world and famous throughout history, felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.

I was so angry that my eyes almost welled up with tears, and a mix of emotions welled up inside me.

"A hundred years, a hundred deaths and one life, is it all just a joke?"

He muttered to himself, his voice trembling slightly.

My thoughts involuntarily drifted back to those years intertwined with darkness and despair.

In order to obtain enough power to quell the turmoil and protect his family and friends, he resolutely activated the Dark Supreme Source, which was capable of annihilating any cultivator, body and soul.

Furthermore, it became entangled with the unruly and cursed remnant of the Great Accomplished Holy Body.

Each impact felt like walking on a tightrope over a bottomless abyss, tearing the soul apart and polluting the sacred blood.

He was on the verge of complete depravity countless times, but he persevered only because of his indomitable will.

Before going into seclusion, Ji Ziyue's tearful words of advice, An Miaoyi's tender words tinged with resolute determination, and the complex and unfathomable gaze of the Purple Mansion Saintess...

Those scenes of tenderness and exploitation almost wore down his ancient holy body, which was known for its vigorous blood and energy.

I thought that the power I gained at such a terrible price was to deal with the great calamity of eternity, and to settle the world in one battle.

But the result... how could the result be like this?

Thinking of this, Ye Fan almost burst into tears.

He opened his mouth, but found that he was filled with grief and helplessness and could not find any words to express it.

What is the meaning of all the suffering and near-death experiences over the past century?
Is it just to prove one's own stupidity and recklessness?

However, when he looked inward into the sea of ​​suffering and felt the vast, star-like, and boundless divine power, as immense as the universe.

However, it must be admitted that this level of cultivation is real and true, and he has indeed stood at the pinnacle of humanity, far surpassing his peers.

Thinking of the close female friends gathered around me now, although I am burdened with emotional debts, it is also a kind of warmth that others can hardly reach.

This made him swallow back the words that were stuck in his throat, turning them into a long and complicated sigh.

Just as Ye Fan's heart was filled with turmoil, Wang Mingyuan quietly appeared in the main hall.

His aura was ethereal, as if he were breathing in sync with the entire universe, and his gaze was as calm as a deep, ancient well.

The gaze fell upon Ye Fan, revealing a strange expression of inquiry and contemplation.

He was playing with two dazzling primordial energies in his hands, one of which was purple and soaring into the sky, domineering and unparalleled.

One is as deep as blood and as fierce as the heavens—this is the origin of the Heavenly Overlord Body, and there are actually two of them!

Ji Zi and Xia Jiuyou's cultivation requires stimulation from opposing origins to advance rapidly.

However, the two origins of the same Overlord Body are difficult to achieve the best effect.

Wang Mingyuan's gaze seemed to pierce through Ye Fan's sea of ​​suffering, revealing the dark supreme origin that was being suppressed with difficulty but still continuously emitted a strange dark light.

Although that source was powerful, its tempering effect was greatly reduced for Ye Fan, who had now reached the fifth level of Quasi-Emperor and whose path ahead was almost smooth.

Or rather, Ye Fan had become very familiar with fighting him, and after reaching the Quasi-Emperor realm, he could basically sweep him away easily.

A bold, even crazy, idea popped into Wang Mingyuan's mind.

"Perhaps... we could replace it."

His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable Daoist aura that echoed throughout the hall.

"Strip the source of the Dark Sovereign within you, and then transfer the source of this Great Accomplishment Body in my hand into it."

Let the supremely yang and holy essence of the Holy Body intertwine and merge with the supremely strong and fierce essence of the Overlord Body within your body...

I eagerly anticipate the sparks that will fly when these two legendary, opposing physiques from countless star systems collide, and what astonishing chaotic physique they will give birth to!

This idea is enough to shake the past and present.

In the past, although he had this brilliant idea, he was powerless to implement it.

Neither stripping away the original source that had achieved a delicate balance nor finding a suitable and powerful alternative was within our capabilities at the time.

But things are different now. He treads on the corpses of many ancient emperors and supreme beings on the path to immortality, and in the shortest time, he has completed the longest journey, truly standing in the realm of the Heavenly Emperor, overlooking the cycle of reincarnation in the mortal world.

Looking back, the flesh and blood and primordial spirit of those supreme beings in forbidden zones became the most abundant resources on his path to enlightenment.

Thinking of this, Wang Mingyuan felt an unprecedented sense of ease and joy, a transcendence that came from mastering the laws and glimpsing the origin of the Great Dao.

However, below the main hall, the core powerhouses of the Heavenly Court, led by Gu Tianshu and the Old Man Demon, were far from relaxed.

Although they had received Wang Mingyuan's help and their strength had risen to an unprecedented level, enough to make them stand out throughout the ages, their faces were still shrouded in solemnity and worry.

"The unrest in the restricted area has not truly subsided."

Gu Tianshu's expression was serious, and his voice was low, "Even those supreme beings who have severed their own flesh are eyeing us covetously, let alone..."

There's also the ancient emperor who seems to have lived a second life and returned to his peak state.

If they launch an attack, it will be earth-shattering, a major threat to us!

The old man, the demon, nodded slowly. Although he was warlike, he was not reckless.

They once thought that Wang Mingyuan relied on his invincible strength after attaining enlightenment, coupled with the astonishing killing formation of Lingbao Tianzun, to kill off many ancient emperors and supreme beings one by one on his path to immortality.

Although he knew Wang Mingyuan was powerful, he never imagined that he had reached such an incomprehensible level, so he was still overwhelmed by a great sense of urgency.

"News from the Immortal Realm says that the path to immortality will reopen in a few hundred years."

Ning Fei spoke, his brows furrowed with worry.

"At that time, the powerful beings from all the heavens and myriad realms, and the giants who have been dormant for countless ages, will surely flock here."

Where should we go from here?
Should we strive to cross the path to immortality, or remain steadfast in the mortal realm?

The atmosphere in the hall immediately became even more oppressive.

The allure of immortality, the threat of turmoil, and the uncertainty of the future, like layers of gloom, shroud the hearts of everyone.

They all turned their gazes to Wang Mingyuan and Ye Fan high above, for these two were the key figures who would determine the future direction of the Heavenly Court.

Ye Fan felt those gazes and was abruptly jolted awake from his self-pity.

He looked around and saw the trusting, expectant, yet uneasy eyes of his comrades.

He saw the concern in Ji Ziyue's eyes, and the steadfastness of his old friends Pang Bo, Hei Huang, and others.

In that instant, he understood that no matter how much suffering he had endured in the past, and no matter who had orchestrated this scheme, he was no longer alone.

On his shoulders lay the weight of the entire world, the life and death of his relatives and friends, and the peace of this universe.

That indomitable fighting spirit, originating from the very essence of the Holy Body, burned once again in his chest like a raging fire.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his surging blood and qi. His gaze sharpened again as he looked at Wang Mingyuan and said in a deep voice, "Strip away the source, fuse with the Overlord Body..."

This method is certainly shocking, but what are the risks involved? What will I need to give up, and what will I gain?

Upon hearing this, Wang Mingyuan's lips curled into a meaningful smile, as if he had already anticipated Ye Fan's question.

The two tufts of his domineering essence at his fingertips pulsated slightly, emitting a heart-palpitating fluctuation.

"There are risks, of course, and the possibility of falling into utter ruin. But the rewards... may exceed your wildest imagination."

As for the cost…

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd below before finally settling on Ye Fan's face.

"It is with you, with this Heavenly Court, that we will weather the coming catastrophe that will sweep across all the heavens and myriad realms!"

Seeing the serious expressions on the faces of all the people in the hall, Wang Mingyuan suddenly couldn't hold back and let out a laugh.

"It seems I haven't explained many things clearly to you, leading to some misunderstandings about me and Bai Yujing..."

"Didn't I say before? I killed many ancient emperors and dark sovereigns on the path to immortality. I killed them all by myself..."

"what?!"

The people in the main hall were so shocked they were numb, unsure how to describe it.

Wang Mingyuan then explained his plan and ideas step by step.

"I traveled through the chaotic void and found a fragment of a world left behind after my realm shattered in ancient times."

Rather than being fragments, after so many years of development, it's more like another extremely vast world...

"The longevity substances in that world are far more abundant and more concentrated than those in this world."

Even if we say that place is a celestial realm, it wouldn't be a big problem.

After all, once you enter that realm, the lifespan of all cultivators can increase several times over…

"I allowed Fellow Daoist Gai Jiuyou to enter that world ahead of time, and at the same time, I allowed Chuanying to enter that realm as well."

They successfully transcended the tribulation and became great emperors...

Then, in the tomb of the Celestial Venerable Lingbao, I obtained four killing swords and that array diagram. With this, I already had the confidence to deal with the Dark Turmoil..."

Wang Mingyuan briefly described what he had done over the years, and the expressions of the group of people below changed, finally letting out a long sigh of relief.

Just moments ago, Ye Fan thought he was about to encounter great risks and face a huge crisis in order to cultivate the Saintly Overlord Body, but his expression began to twist again.

"So you were being so serious just now, were you kidding me?"

Wang Mingyuan's stern expression made Ye Fan's expression also turn serious.

The next moment, Wang Mingyuan's lips curled up slightly again.

"Don't you think it would be interesting to fuse the essence of the Holy Body and the Overlord Body to achieve an unprecedented special physique?"

"Both the Holy Body and the Overlord Body are the first physiques below the Chaos Body and the Innate Holy Body Dao Embryo, and are the most outstanding in the entire universe."

"If the two are combined, it might break the age-old curse and allow you to directly attain the Dao and become an emperor!"

Isn't it worth trying?

"I get the feeling that you simply want to take a look and try it out?"

"Don't you want to?"

"Kind of thinking about it!"

Wang Mingyuan and Ye Fan exchanged a glance and both chuckled.

"So you're saying there's no such thing as immortal jade, and no true immortals, and everything was just a setup?"

Ning Fei's expression was inscrutable.

Wang Mingyuan shook his head after hearing this.

"No, the Immortal Realm still exists."

"Before I became an emperor, I had no way to deceive so many people."

Throughout history, all ancient emperors and great rulers have believed in the existence of a celestial realm and have sought to venture onto the path to immortality.

So many people died on the path to immortality, how could there be no immortal realm?
At that time, I had no way to deceive the ancient emperors and great rulers of the entire world…

"The Immortal Realm does exist, and at a specific time and place, it will merge with this world and reveal a corresponding passage."

"But I seized the opportunity at that time, when the secrets of heaven were in chaos, and filled that vast world I had found at the entrance of that passage, pretending it was a celestial realm..."

This gathering was absolutely shocking to everyone in Baiyujing. Everyone was filled with endless shock and awe as they learned about the ancient secret.

"In other words, the opening of the path to immortality hundreds of years later is also a lie. It's that the vast world is going to approach this side again and then close the door and beat the dog again."
"Kill the ancient emperors and celestial beings in the forbidden zone again?"

"Yes and no!"

Wang Mingyuan was very calm and composed.

He recounted the initial plan step by step, and even discussed his plans for the future.

At his current level and level, he no longer needs to resort to any schemes or tricks.

Before becoming emperor, he needed to use schemes and tricks. Now that he's emperor, if he still needs to use schemes and tricks, then what's the point of becoming emperor?
"Such changes have already occurred..."

The group of people looked puzzled, but it didn't affect the great battle on the path to immortality.

"You've become this strong?"

"You can single-handedly push through the penalty area?"

"Have you truly become an immortal? Do immortals really exist in this world?"

The last question was the one they asked the most, and it was also the one they cared about the most.

The most outstanding individuals all have many thoughts on this question and want to know the answer.

Shakyamuni, Lao Tzu, the Demon, Ning Fei...

Each of them had their eyes fixed intently, hoping to get a definite answer.

"Immortal?"

"Not quite yet. I'm still a bit far from that level!"

This statement disappointed everyone present, but Wang Mingyuan's next words excited them again.

"However, I am basically clear about the future direction and path. I just need to put more effort into this aspect in the future."

"what?"

The news that there really is a path to immortality in the mortal world is even more shocking than Wang Mingyuan becoming an emperor.

But Wang Mingyuan remained calm and composed, even relaxing as he leaned back on his throne.

Instead of asking me these questions, you should think about what you're going to do next!

"Ok?"

"I have decided to rebuild the glory of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

"In the time to come, I will continuously strengthen this world, merging countless great worlds and universes with it. I will even wage war against strange worlds and the Immortal Realm..."

"The Immortal Realm reached an unprecedented peak when it merged with one great universe after another."

So, who stipulated that these things cannot be done in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?

"Merge multiple universes, and then create a celestial realm!"

"That's right!" (End of Chapter)
