Humans are shrouded in mist, projecting their image across countless worlds.

Chapter 2 He Lang: "The world calls me the second most chaotic figure in ancient times, and I am worthy of it!"

Gai Jiuyou's move surprised He Lang; he hadn't expected the senior to make a decision so quickly.

He joked, "Does the senior really trust the junior that much?"

Gai Jiuyou waved his hand and said, "No, it's just that I've heard my little disciple mention your name. You and Ye Fan, the Holy Body, are famous throughout the Eastern Wilderness. You are known as He Lang, the Chaotic One of this Era. Of course I believe you."

After Gai Jiuyou finished speaking, he laughed heartily, revealing a set of white teeth, his eyes full of teasing.

Uh!
Upon hearing Gai Jiuyou suddenly mention the title "The Chaotic Ancient Era," He Lang's originally calm expression turned slightly awkward, feeling a sense of embarrassment at having his online nickname called out to his face. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and recovered in an instant.

"This is a misunderstanding I have by the people of the Eastern Wilderness!"

He Lang gave Gai Jiuyou a serious explanation, and upon hearing it, the wrinkles on Gai Jiuyou's face deepened.

"I feel that I should have the same talent as the Ruthless Great Emperor, which has amazed the ages. I wish I had been born two hundred thousand years earlier!"

"Pfft..."

Gai Jiuyou was just waiting to hear his sophistry when he heard this, and he choked on the wine that was about to go down his throat. The wine sprayed towards He Lang, but it did not splash onto He Lang's face. Instead, it was dissolved in the void by a force of Dao in front of He Lang. He himself did not even need to use his divine power.

"Your spiritual attainment is truly profound, in harmony with heaven and earth, and in accordance with the natural order. Your cultivation in this realm is indeed exceptionally high."

Gai Jiuyou could see that this was a change that arose naturally from heaven and earth, and not from He Lang using his divine power, which made him admire it even more.

This is no longer a realm that can be touched by those at the Dragon Transformation stage. To merge with the Dao is to be close to the Dao, and clearly this junior has already attained the Dao.

That's just too shameless! The people of the Eastern Wilderness jokingly call this junior the "Chaotic Ancient Emperor of our time." Perhaps it was just a joke at first, but this junior really does have a bit of the style of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor. He is invincible in a hundred battles and has an incomparably strong Dao heart.

Gai Jiuyou recalled a saying from Beiyuan: "This boy has the potential to become an emperor!"

"Your temperament is indeed just as my little disciple described—too arrogant and conceited. You must cultivate a sense of awe. The power of the ancient emperors is boundless, and the Chaotic Ancient Emperor is no weakling. The Eastern Wilderness calls you the Chaotic Ancient of our time. Your path of growth is indeed somewhat similar to his. As for the Ruthless Emperor..."

When Gai Jiuyou mentioned the Ruthless Emperor, he glanced at He Lang and shook his head!

When He Lang saw him shake his head, a black line appeared on his forehead. This meant he didn't agree!

"Real Points +30000"

Looking at the system panel notifications that only he could see, He Lang felt both happy and speechless.

He was happy because Gai Jiuyou, this unconventional Daoist, agreed with his claim of being the second most powerful in the chaotic era, which earned him 30000 Reality Points. He was speechless because he had originally planned to challenge the Ruthless Great Emperor and turn his amazing talent into reality, but Gai Jiuyou directly rejected his plan, causing his plans to fall through.

"I have already mastered the legends of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, and obtained the Demon Heart Seed, the Dao Heart is indestructible, and the ability to break and rebuild, among other characteristics related to the legends of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor. I'll save these real points for later use!"

The panel disappeared in the blink of an eye, and He Lang forgot about the thought. He wasn't in a hurry. One day, he would gain the recognition of all five regions!
"I did not underestimate this emperor."

He Lang spoke very seriously; he truly believed it. Because he embodied many of the characteristics of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, essentially possessing a character entry, he naturally knew the terrifying aspects of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.

Gai Jiuyou sensed his sincere intentions, nodded, and showed a satisfied expression.

"By the way, senior, your little disciple wouldn't happen to be Xia Jiuyou, the prodigy who inexplicably appeared in the Eastern Wilderness when he wanted to obtain Ye Fan's holy blood to refine the divine pill, would he?"

"You know perfectly well why you ask! You're quite cunning, younger generation. I've spoiled her rotten. I've already placed her under house arrest. I hope you can resolve this grudge. My Dao injury cannot be healed by ordinary Holy Body blood." Gai Jiuyou's tone was somewhat saddened upon hearing He Lang's words.

He Lang remained silent. He knew that Gai Jiuyou's injury was left when he tried to defy the heavens and prove his Dao under the suppression of the Azure Emperor's Great Dao. It could only be said that the old man was born at the wrong time and encountered the Azure Emperor, one of the most powerful emperors in history.

As the first emperor of the post-ancient era, the Azure Emperor was born extraordinary. He was born with consciousness from the immortal medicine Chaos Azure Lotus and took human form. His power was beyond doubt. He was an existence that could compete with the Ruthless Emperor and the Beginningless Emperor. Although the Azure Emperor's later actions of opening up the Immortal Realm seemed to be a confusing behavior, it did not affect the power of this demon emperor.

He Lang even calculated that this demon emperor had left behind countless contingency plans in preparation for his return, but an accident still occurred after a long period of time.

Although the Azure Emperor's primordial spirit entered the Desolate Tower to create a small divine realm and evolve towards the Immortal Realm, his heart and imperial weapon remained outside. Even the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart still had vitality. In the original work, it transformed into the Chaos Azure Lotus in Ye Fan's Sea of ​​Bitterness and was nurtured until Ye Fan reached the Quasi-Emperor realm before leaving, awakening the Azure Emperor from annihilation and allowing this great emperor to reappear in the world.

Perhaps the Azure Emperor had already foreseen the opening of the path to immortality and planned to use external forces to revive at the right time when the path in the Desolate Tower became impassable, thus gaining entry into the path to immortality.

With such an unparalleled emperor, how easy would it be for Gai Jiuyou to break through his Great Dao suppression? If it were the Golden Crow Emperor, he would probably have a much better chance!
"Senior's Dao injury is not insurmountable. The withering and flourishing, birth and death of all things in the world are also within the Dao. A withered tree can bloom again in spring, and we cultivators can also revive in annihilation and rise from ruin. This is also in accordance with the Great Dao. The Jiang family has a God King named Jiang Taixu. Ye Fan and I once rescued him from a dangerous place. He seemed to have found a path when he was on the verge of death, and his original source was restored. I think he can be called a second life. If you are interested, senior, I can contact the God King and you can discuss it. I think you will gain some insights. If all else fails, there is still the elixir of immortality."

"Really? There are still such outstanding people in this world!"

Gai Jiuyou was somewhat moved by He Lang's words. To live a second life? He had seen such legends recorded in ancient books, but he never expected that there would be such a person in the present world.

However, when he heard He Lang say that the immortal medicine was a backup option, he felt both amused and exasperated.

"Why do you sound like the elixir of immortality is everywhere?"

Gai Jiuyou couldn't help but tease He Lang a couple of times.

"Uh, I do have it, but my elixir of immortality only has the root."

A plant root shaped like a foot appeared in He Lang's hand. The special longevity energy of the immortal medicine left Gai Jiuyou speechless. Immortal light shot out from his eyes, and the laws of the Great Dao transformed into a waterfall that cascaded down to his head. A terrifying aura permeated this world.

"You actually have it!"

Gai Jiuyou completely lost his composure! He carefully examined the root of the immortal medicine in He Lang's hand, and finally revealed his regret.

"Unfortunately, the destruction was too severe; life was almost completely extinguished..."

At this point, he suddenly remembered something.

"Is this the one from the Holy City of the Northern Region? So it was you who cultivated it. I remember the news at the time was that the roots of this divine herb still had a chance of life. How come it has almost been completely destroyed now?"

Faced with his probing gaze, He Lang guiltily shifted his eyes, which made Gai Jiuyou narrow his eyes, knowing that the reason might lie with this junior.

Faced with his gaze that seemed to see right through him, He Lang had no choice but to tell the truth, saying, "Legend has it that the elixir of immortality can bring about nirvana. I wanted to study the mysteries of the elixir of immortality and see if I could bring a withered tree back to life and comprehend the secret of the elixir of immortality, so I absorbed a little bit of the elixir of immortality's life force..."

Gai Jiuyou was completely stunned upon hearing this. He had lived for eight or nine thousand years and had never seen such a spendthrift. His hands even trembled a few times!
"Senior, why are your hands trembling a little?"

I want to punch someone!

　It was right at the beginning! I was so oblivious; I watched it several times and didn't notice.
