Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 418 Above the Three Realms
Ning Fei's voice was cold, and when he looked at Yin Wei, there was even a hint of murderous intent that sent chills down one's spine.

“Brother Ning, why do you say that? I have only respect for the Holy Emperor Palace and have no intention of insulting it in the slightest.”

Yinwei quickly explained, his attitude changing drastically.

Because neither the man in front of him nor the forces behind him were entities he could afford to provoke.

The former is on par with the Little Heavenly King of the Immortal Academy, while the latter is a behemoth, no weaker than the Longevity Family.

Under these circumstances, Yin Wei naturally dared not offend him, so he composed himself and spoke very politely.

However, he was puzzled as to why the other party would say such a thing; he was merely belittling the beings of the Ten Lands.

"Who in the Nine Heavens doesn't know that the founder of my Holy Emperor Palace—the Holy Emperor—originally came from the Three Thousand Dao Provinces."

"And what is it if not an insult to my Holy Emperor Palace that you look down on the living beings of the Three Thousand Dao States?"

Ning Fei's expression turned cold, his eyes like two divine swords, extremely intimidating.

Upon hearing this, the silver-robed man was shocked. The legendary Holy Emperor was actually a creature from the lower realm.
Not only him, but everyone else was also quite surprised, as if they were hearing the news for the first time.

Suddenly, a man said, "I remember hearing my elders say that when the Holy Emperor rose to power, everyone actually called him the Devouring Demon Emperor."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed, as if they felt a sense of dread towards the words "Devouring Demon Emperor," treating them as if they were taboo.

"The Holy Emperor's first incarnation was the Devouring Demon Emperor, so wouldn't he have been a ruthless killer...?"

The man trembled, his voice grew softer and softer, and he felt a chill emanating from Ning Fei.

"I advise you to speak properly; my knife may not be without its flaws!"

For a moment, many people swallowed hard, swallowing hard, and swallowed back what they wanted to say.

"Brother Ning, please forgive me. I really didn't know, and I had no intention of offending the Holy Emperor. I take back what I said earlier." Yin Wei immediately apologized.

Clearly, even a young prodigy with three strands of immortal energy dared not provoke the Holy Emperor Palace.

That was undoubtedly a suicidal act!
Ning Fei glanced at it coldly and then ignored it. Moreover, there was a restriction here, and no one could make a move, otherwise they would be directly eliminated by the rules.

Then, he turned his attention to Lin Fan, muttering to himself, "So alike, so incredibly alike, both from the Three Thousand Provinces. Who exactly is he...?"

……

The ancient hall, with its walls and massive pillars, is entirely carved from wood, exuding a powerful vitality.

Ordinary people can prolong their lives simply by being in it, and hardly feel the passage of their own lives.

As for the cultivators, they were even more delighted, as their cultivation speed here was greatly accelerated, as if they were in an endless source of divine energy.

It has to be said that this is a celestial palace, which everyone yearns for, makes them drool, and wants to move and possess it, so that they can stay inside and cultivate at all times.

"It's a pity we didn't have the fortune or luck to fail so early," someone sighed.

At that moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Lin Fan and Lü Hong, who were still in the process of comprehending the truth, and they were filled with envy.

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the succession will fall into one of the two categories."

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, the entire hall resonated softly, and all the symbols imprinted on the walls leaped out one by one, shining brightly and possessing a metallic texture.

Then, the ancient immortal characters all swirled around the two of them, surrounding them at the center, their appearance solemn and sacred.

This scene was truly amazing, leaving people speechless.

At the same time, a powerful vitality erupted, and green clouds fell around Lin Fan and Lü Hong, causing many plants to grow.

"It's almost time. Both of them have reached the final stage. Whoever can comprehend the true immortal's insights first will receive the inheritance." Many people breathed heavily, staring intently, all filled with anticipation.

"Sister Life, your understanding of the Dao of Life has actually reached this level, comprehending beyond the third realm—the realm of Heavenly Dao?"

Lin Fan closed his eyes and wandered into the vast emptiness, as if he had entered a great world where all things were thriving and peaceful.

Back when he dreamed of returning to the ancient times, he mentioned the three-level division of his understanding of the Dao.

The first level is seeing mountains as mountains and water as water; the second level is seeing mountains as not mountains and water as not water; the third level is seeing mountains as mountains and water as water again.

Lin Fan had already reached these three levels, and for someone with advanced cultivation, reaching them wouldn't be too difficult.

But the most difficult, and most important, path lies beyond the third realm, a realm of transcendence, an indescribable state.

To date, Lin Fan has not achieved this, which shows how difficult it is.

In fact, he had guessed that it involved the realm of immortality, which was beyond his current comprehension, so he was not in a hurry.

Today, Lin Fan was greatly surprised. He never expected that the Life Fairy would actually comprehend it and attain the realm of transcendence.

“Incredible! I only mentioned it once, and she actually did it and succeeded.”

Lin Fan was shocked. Surrounded by the vast ocean of life, he found himself resonating with the insights of this old friend, which brought him sudden enlightenment. He felt radiant and gained immense benefits.

Without a doubt, this was a valuable experience for him, a true gem, more important than anything else.

Although he did not purely cultivate the laws of life, the insights gained from the enlightenment of a true immortal are still priceless treasures.

Next, as Lin Fan read carefully, he became completely immersed in it, verifying the first three realms without any problems.

But once he reached the third realm, he became alert and revealed a strange expression: "No, that is her path, I shouldn't be so obsessed with it."

"The Life Immortal followed the way of Heaven, attempting to merge herself with the way of Heaven, create all things, achieve true immortality, and recreate the peak of the laws of life."

“But this is the fourth realm she has comprehended, the path of transcendence, not my Great Dao,” Lin Fan muttered to himself, shaking his head.

In his view, even heaven and earth will one day collapse, go to annihilation, and return to chaos.

To achieve true eternity, one must gather one's own great power and not rely on external things; this is the path he should take.

"Yes, this is the way I should be!" Lin Fan opened his eyes, fully comprehending the truth, and his mind was completely clear.

However, in the eyes of others, his premature realization was a sign of failure.

"It seems that the ultimate successor belongs to Lü Hong."

"Hey, so what if you persisted a long time? You still failed, one more time..."

The man in the silver robe sneered, then glanced at Ning Fei with apprehension, not daring to utter those words again.

Lin Fan listened to the discussions and smiled dismissively, without explaining that he had actually confirmed his success.

Soon after, Lü Hong also woke up. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, her big eyes were bright and lively, and her beautiful face shone with joy.

"As expected of a fairy from a family of immortals, she is exceptionally intelligent and gathers the divine essence of heaven and earth... to seize the ultimate destiny!"

Some people were generous with their praise, extending goodwill and trying to befriend him in advance.

Of course, some people were indignant. How could they be willing to watch the inheritance of a true immortal fall into the hands of others?

If it weren't for the prohibition of violence here, a major war would probably have broken out long ago.

"Wait, something's not right. Why did the inheritance choose this guy?!" Yinwei exclaimed, his tone full of surprise.
