Chapter 223: The Wan Longhuang Princess's Goodwill

The Wan Longhuang Princess's show of goodwill, whether intentional or deliberate, narrowed the distance between the two sides.

Both sides sat and discussed the Dao, touching upon the Immortal Path, talking about chaos, yin and yang, and speaking of the great masters throughout history, such as the Heavenly Court's Emperor Zun and the Undying Emperor.

"What? Daoist Ye is the reincarnation of Emperor Zun?"

After Lin Xian revealed that Ye Fan was the Lord of the Heavenly Court, the Wan Longhuang Princess's expression turned strange, and the Great Sage Gan Lun was even more astonished.

Emperor Zun—this term, even for the Primordial Tribes, was incomparably lofty.

In an instant, this Ancient Imperial Princess realized that this group of people was ambitious and not forming any Immortal Alliance at all.

They wanted to establish a Heavenly Court, and by winning over her father, they intended to recreate the miracles of the Mythological Era and have all the Emperors stand together!

What kind of bullshit "coexistence of all races"? This is not an alliance, but a rule. The Heavenly Court intends to rule the universe's eight wildernesses; all races are subjects, and there is no distinction between high and low, naturally making them equal.

"Brother Ye, since you are the reincarnation of Emperor Zun, you should have some understanding of the Undying Emperor."

The Wan Longhuang Princess narrowed her eyes, revealing purple vertical pupils, and smiled faintly, probing: "Just how powerful is the Undying Emperor?"

The Undying Emperor—these four words possessed unparalleled brilliance and glory in the Primordial Era. Before he even attained the Dao, he dared to ambush Emperor Zun; his courage and insight were evident. Later, after attaining the Dao, he was honored as the Huang Tiandi and sought to compare himself with True Immortals!

Later still, his cultivation grew daily, surpassing the ancient and present, ruling the nine heavens and ten earths, and he was revered by all races as the supreme god, wishing to compare his height with True Immortals!

After the Primordial Era, almost every generation of Ancient Emperors was compared to the Undying Emperor; however, except for a few, no one could match him.

Even the Wan Longhuang, when he was on the throne, showed a solemn expression when mentioning the Undying Emperor.

"How strong is the Huang Tiandi?"

Ye Fan said indifferently: "Nothing special, not as strong as Emperor Zun."

What a big tone!

The Wan Longhuang Princess and Great Sage Gan Lun looked sideways. With this tone, one would think Ye Fan was truly the reincarnation of the Huang Tiandi.

"Although not as good, it is not far off."

Lin Xian sighed softly: "The Undying Emperor and Emperor Zun are both Huang Tiandi-level masters, distancing themselves from ordinary Imperial Dao masters."

"What is a Huang Tiandi?" The Wan Longhuang Princess pondered for a moment and continued to ask.

Regarding the concept of the Huang Tiandi, there has been no consensus throughout the ages. Some say it is strength, some say it is merit, some say it is the exploration of the Immortal Path, and some say it is the research into longevity methods.

Lin Xian believes all of the above are correct.

But, the Huang Tiandi realm has a passing red line, which is the ability to suppress and kill flawless Imperial Dao masters!

It is not about bullying self-slashing Supremes, relying on young blood to exhaust them to death, but a head-on peak battle, and winning.

"Suppress and kill Imperial Dao?!"

Once these words were spoken, everyone trembled. Even Gai Jiuyou raised his eyelids and pondered: "Qing Di should have this combat power."

Old Man Gai, you still cannot forget your Qing Di.

Lin Xian secretly complained in his heart, but his expression became solemn: "Without such strength, how can one pacify the dark turmoil, deter the Life Forbidden Zones, be worshipped by all living beings, create endless legends, and establish supreme achievements?"

"Not to mention the subsequent exploration of the Immortal Path and longevity; if one is busy contending with the Life Forbidden Zones, there is simply no time to cultivate, which is a waste of life."

"The Great Emperor only deters the Dark Supremes; he cannot destroy the Life Forbidden Zones."

"The Huang Tiandi, however, can make the entire Life Forbidden Zone fearful!"

"Being able to kill Imperial Dao and making Supremes afraid to appear in the world—this is the biggest difference."

As for whether it is killing an Imperial Dao master after a great battle or killing an Imperial Dao master in a few moves, that is the difference between a Quasi-Huang Tiandi and a Huang Tiandi. Having crossed that barrier, there is a qualitative leap, leaving only quantitative accumulation.

This barrier is called the Third Life, called the Immortal Path, called perfecting one's own longevity method, and practicing it to perfection.

The Undying Emperor stepped out on his own path; above, he can strike Immortals, and below, he can suppress demons. After reaching Great Perfection, he can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Third Life Emperor Zun.

If in his prime state, killing Supremes like the Wan Longhuang would only take a few moves.

However, the Red Dust Immortal Path is the most treacherous. Every Nirvana breakthrough is a life-and-death crisis, and the early stage of rebirth is often the weakest moment.

As strong as the Ruthless Great Emperor, during the transformation stage, her combat power also dropped significantly, and it took a lot of effort to fight an Abandoned Heaven Supreme.

To avoid exposing his weaknesses to the world, the Undying Emperor chose to lie dormant and pass through the weak period. Clearly a Huang Tiandi-level master, he hid behind the scenes, choosing to ambush late-life Great Emperors one by one, hunting their essence blood and longevity substances to prolong his life.

Calling him the number one old schemer of all time is not an exaggeration. However, under Lin Xian's future vision, the naturally evil Undying Immortal Phoenix was exposed without reservation.

This time, the Undying Emperor is no longer the fisherman; his retreat and Nirvana location have been perceived by Lin Xian.

Compared to the ethereal Immortal Path, bathing in the Emperor's blood and extending one's Imperial life by half a lifetime is full of temptation.

"If several Supremes join forces to preside over the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array, combined with the Wu Shi Bell, Chaos Green Lotus, and Void Immortal Mirror, whether we can take down the Undying Emperor in his weak period is a great attempt."

"Even if it doesn't succeed, it can reduce the pressure on the Wu Shi Great Emperor. After all, in the Strange World, there is still a Huang Tiandi-level master eyeing us, which is very easy to flip over."

Lin Xian silently calculated the number of Supremes. The Primordial Ancient Mine is just a stepping stone; the Immortal Alliance needs more Supremes.

Four Supremes presiding over the four Immortal-Slaying Swords couldn't keep the un-attained Ye Fan, let alone the Undying Emperor; the number of Imperial Dao masters must at least double.

With their current status, even if Gai Jiuyou becomes an Emperor, he cannot gain the trust of the Life Forbidden Zones. We need an insider in the Forbidden Zone to act as a mole, pass information, and share things.

The Wan Longhuang is a good choice. Whether it is his daughter or his desire for immortality, both weaknesses can be grasped.

A massive amount of information struck, completely stunning the Wan Longhuang Princess and Great Sage Gan Lun. Lin Xian stopped while he was ahead and did not reveal the crazier plan to hunt the Emperor, which would scare the Dragon Clan.

It is useless to say more about such things to existences below the Supreme level. Even within the Immortal Alliance, except for the Emperor Weapons and relevant personnel, only Gai Jiuyou perceived part of the truth.

"Suppress and kill Imperial Dao, deter the Forbidden Zones?"

The Wan Longhuang Princess sighed in admiration. Regardless of whether they have that kind of strength, the spirit currently displayed by the Immortal Alliance already has a bit of the Heavenly Court's atmosphere.

Could this group of people really be planning to establish a Heavenly Court?

Great Sage Gan Lun was somewhat worried. Did the Primordial Dragon Clan get on a pirate ship? He was considering the survival and continuation of his race.

Lin Xian said loudly: "Living in one lifetime, if one cannot become an Immortal, one should recast the Heavenly Court and recreate the legends of eternity; it would not be in vain to come to this world."

"The world is not just the Life Forbidden Zones; our generation shall soar!"

"No need for Supremes; in this lifetime, our generation will surpass Supremes and create myths and legends!"

"Dragon Princess, why not come with me for a walk and see the great mountains and rivers of the human world."

"Our generation shall soar?!" This thought, once it arose, took root and sprouted in the Wan Longhuang Princess's heart like a seed, growing wildly. Her eyes were bright and shining, eager to try.

Although it seemed somewhat unbelievable, somewhat young and frivolous, not knowing the height of the sky and the depth of the earth.

But if one is not frivolous, can one still be called a young person?

This young Ancient Imperial Princess was moved, her blood boiling, with the urge to turn into a trend and rush into the Golden Great Age to fight.

"Little Ancestor, let's wait until we have seen the Ancestral Emperor before talking about anything."

Great Sage Gan Lun was extremely experienced and pulled the Wan Longhuang Princess back to reality. Don't look at this Imperial Princess's high seniority and strong strength; she has been sealed in Divine Source for many years and is essentially just a young girl who has not seen much of the world.

Young people are easily fooled by ideals, dreams, and blueprints, and their blood goes to their heads. Great Sage Gan Lun is different; he is an old mud loach who has been a clan leader for four or five thousand years, going through water and fire, roaming the Primordial Era, subduing human demons—an iron-boned, tough man who has broken through barrier after barrier!

Lin Xian and his group are rotten to the core; one look and you can tell they are not good goods.

What reincarnation of Emperor Zun, what Heavenly Court—Great Sage Gan Lun has only one word: Bah! He doesn't believe a single word.

What does the contention between the Undying Emperor and Emperor Zun have to do with the Wan Long Chao? Chasing stars is chasing stars, interests are interests; the Ancestral Emperor's will is the key!

Only the reincarnation of Emperor Zun acknowledged by the Wan Longhuang himself is the reincarnation of Emperor Zun.

By now, Great Sage Gan Lun has figured it out: King against King, General against General, Soldier against Soldier.

Gai Jiuyou will be dealt with by the Ancestral Emperor, he himself has to play against Dongfang Taiyi, and the Wan Longhuang Princess needs to be wary of Lin Xian's flowery words.

Great Sage Gan Lun was earnest, his gaze incomparably sharp, looking at Lin Xian as if he were looking at a yellow-haired brat.

However, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl is at the most rebellious age; if you don't want her to do it, she insists on doing it.

"If one follows the rules, how can one break the shackles of the predecessors."

"If I were the Wan Longhuang, would I let my daughter's great youth wither away in the Wan Long Chao?"

"One yin and one yang, one movement and one stillness, one tension and one relaxation—this is the principle of the Great Dao."

Lin Xian guided her step by step, and every word reached the Wan Longhuang Princess's heart.

She was hesitant, but the Human Demon old man had a change.

"Yin and yang, movement and stillness, tension and relaxation..." Dongfang Taiyi's eyes splashed with sun and moon immortal light, seemingly touched, murmuring: "This is that Great Emperor's Dao and principle."

"Great Emperor, Taiji, that True Martial from Wudang?"

Lin Xian said subconsciously, then realized, and suddenly said: "No, Taiji originated from Yi, it is Fuxi's work."

Yi has Taiji, which gives birth to the two forms; the two forms give birth to the four images; the four images give birth to the eight trigrams; the eight trigrams determine good and bad luck; good and bad luck give birth to great undertakings.

The eight trigrams are just the Great Dao that Great Emperor Fuxi attained in that lifetime. But Fuxi is not just Fuxi; he might also be the Boundless Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun, and what he sought was the Yi Dao.

The Sage's Dao moves with the world; ten thousand Daos and ten thousand methods, only Yi does not change.

"From Wuji to Taiji; Taiji moves and gives birth to yang; movement reaches its limit and becomes stillness; stillness gives birth to yin; stillness reaches its limit and returns to movement; one movement and one stillness, each is the root of the other; dividing yin and dividing yang, the two forms are established."

"Know the white and guard the black, to be the model for the world. To be the model for the world, constant virtue does not fail, returning to Wuji..."

Lin Xian moved the works of several Ancient Heavenly Venerables on the Primordial Ancient Star and the evolution of Taiji in later generations, all of which he moved over and taught to the Human Demon old man.

If there is anything in the world that can accommodate yin and yang, besides chaos, I am afraid it is only Taiji.

The so-called Taiji is a manifestation and evolution of the Chaos Great Dao, containing the wisdom of countless Earth heroes. I don't know how many Heavenly Venerables, Great Emperors, and Quasi-Emperors have made comments on it.

The Human Demon old man was greatly touched, thoughtful, and stood on the spot. The black mist on his body flowed again, but it was extinguished again by the surging Solar Holy Power.

Everyone looked at Gai Jiuyou again, hoping that this Supreme would take out the sun pill inside the Human Demon.

Unexpectedly, Gai Jiuyou said indifferently: "This matter is simple. The Taiyin power symbolizes extreme yin and extinction; the universe is deep and dark, and the power of extreme yin is everywhere. It is much easier to find than the sun."

This time, Gai Jiuyou didn't even go to the edge of the universe to seek vitality. He directly reached out and grabbed a desolate galaxy from the depths of the universe, blended it into his palm, refined a crescent pendant, and threw it to Dongfang Taiyi.

For a time, the Solar Holy Power and the Taiyin Holy Power were balanced again, allowing the Human Demon to return to the state of being a god by day and a demon by night, and once again embark on the path of dual cultivation of yin and yang.

When he took off the moon pendant, the Solar Holy Power covered him, making him clear-headed again.

"Many thanks..." The Human Demon was extremely grateful. These two things were of great use to him. Unless he broke through to Quasi-Emperor and truly fused yin and yang, they would fail and become ordinary holy objects.

"A small matter. I also want to, cough cough, see a Quasi-Emperor who cultivates both yin and yang appear among the human race."

Gai Jiuyou waved his hand, his expression calm, but he suddenly coughed, as if he wanted to cough out his heart, returning to his sickly posture.

"Senior, what's wrong with you?" Ye Fan asked with concern: "Do you want to take the Undying Medicine."

"It's not that time yet." Gai Jiuyou shook his head, then coughed a few more times, and said slowly: "I have taken action too many times, my blood is rolling, and I am somewhat uncomfortable."

"How many more times can Senior take action?" Great Sage Gan Lun asked cautiously.

"I can probably take action seven or eight more times." Gai Jiuyou sighed: "After all, I am old and useless."

"Where is that the case? Senior is old but strong, old and firm, and will definitely be able to attain the Dao and become an Emperor, creating brilliance again." Great Sage Gan Lun shivered and hurriedly accompanied him with a smile.

A Supreme can take action seven or eight times. The first time he killed a Great Sage, who should fill the pit for the remaining times?

Anyway, the Wan Long Chao only has two Great Sages; they can't fill this abyss.

"Can still take action seven or eight times..." Lin Xian looked sideways, always feeling something was wrong. Isn't this Ye Mouren's routine? So he whispered: "What about after seven or eight times?"

"That's a matter for next year." Gai Jiuyou said indifferently.

Good fellow, Great Sage Gan Lun called out "good fellow." Taking action seven or eight times a year—there is no such fishing. The Human Supreme is too good at setting up a nest. Fortunately, he didn't take the bait.
