Ye Fan sat there, not moving for an entire day and night. In the end, he opened his eyes, feeling extremely tired.
Yes, he was mentally and physically exhausted. He wanted to do his best, but he really didn't have any feasible methods. Those were supreme beings. Even if he used all kinds of schemes, it was still difficult to stop them.
He had the Heaven Swallowing Pot and the laws of the immortal bell, but even if they could stop one supreme being, could they stop two or three? Even if he made all kinds of arrangements and schemes, setting up a killing trap, it was still useless.
In front of absolute strength, these things were like ants trying to shake a tree in the eyes of those supreme beings. They couldn't stop their footsteps at all.
Right now, he had a secret technique to hide his aura. Once he crossed the tribulation, he would definitely be exposed. Three great tribulations would shake the entire universe. There were three chances to kill him, and some supreme beings wouldn't miss it.
In other words, he, an ant, was strong enough. He was starting to enter the eyes of supreme beings!
Ye Fan stepped into Quasi-emperor's seventh heaven and was already very powerful. However, he felt an unprecedented fatigue. The future path was becoming more and more difficult, and it wasn't easy to break through.
"It doesn't matter if I die, but they can't be buried with me."
Ye Fan's strength improved greatly, his blood energy flourishing, and his lifespan increased. However, there were a few strands of white hair mixed in with his jet-black hair. He felt extremely tired.
Along the way, he walked and thought at the same time. He returned to the Celestial Court. Looking at the flourishing home of the universe's most powerful inheritance, he found it hard to calm down.
All of this was the result of everyone's hard work. It should have been extremely glorious, but in the future, it might attract a great disaster. If supreme beings appeared, they would definitely flatten it.
"Is there no way?"
He saw a corner of the future. One Underworld was already so terrifying. Now, with the addition of the great completion Overlord Body and the supreme beings of the other restricted regions, how could they resist?
Ye Fan suddenly felt his body become cold. The road ahead was difficult. No wonder the great emperors were so unfortunate. Not a single one of them was truly smiling amidst their glory. They were all so serious.
They experienced joys and sorrows, lost too much, and the price they paid was unimaginable.
"Uncle, you're back." A strong-looking youth ran over and greeted enthusiastically. Then, a group of children rushed over.
This was Li Heishui's child, already more than ten years old. He was quite sturdy, and because he had consumed the Nine Aperture Stone Man divine elixir since he was young, his bones were excellent, far surpassing his father.
"Uncle, did you bring us any gifts?" The one who spoke was a fourteen or fifteen year old girl, the youngest daughter of a savage. She wore a beast bone necklace, and her hair was combed into a small braid. Strings of Daluo Silver Essence bells were tied to the braid, swaying with divine radiance and jingling.
These were the descendants of the Celestial Court. Every single one of them was extremely talented, and any great power would be envious of them. This was because Ye Fan, Li Tian, Black Emperor, and the others were willing to invest in them. After they were born, they were soaked in the divine liquid of the Celestial Being's life spring and fed with the Nine Orifices Divine Fetus Liquid. They were even refined with the essence of the Undead Qilin medicine and the Bodhi Tree, refining them into precious pills for them to build their foundations.
It could be said that these children were the Celestial Court's most valuable assets. They represented the future and hope.
"I came and went in a hurry without any preparation. Today, I will teach you a few great divine abilities and explain the Celestial Scripture of Sun." Ye Fan smiled.
"Alright, uncle is going to preach. Come quickly." The children's cheers immediately attracted more people. Many members of the Celestial Court also rushed over to listen to his lecture.
Ye Fan sat cross-legged on a bluestone. Below him, there were many people, mostly children. All of them opened their eyes wide and listened attentively.
Of course, there were also rebellious little ones who were laughing and jumping around in the distance. They were very lively. Among them, two little fellows were the boldest. They climbed up the bluestone one after the other. The little girl held her chin and sat there quietly. She was quite obedient. As for Little Purple, she was like a little monkey. She climbed onto Ye Fan's body and, with a smacking sound, left a patch of saliva on his face.
"Father, I missed you." She said in a sweet and innocent manner.
Seeing her blinking her big eyes and pretending to be obedient, Ye Fan did not know whether to laugh or cry. He could not blame her, so he only pushed her to the side and continued to preach.
The Celestial Court was really very warm. All kinds of familial love, friendship … permeated and intertwined. It made people want to protect it with their lives and not allow anyone to trample or destroy it.
The children dispersed. The Bodhi tree's leaves were green and swayed with green light. Fragments of laws scattered down, making people easily fall into a state of enlightenment.
Ye Fan lightly sighed and stood up.
"Ye, you're back. Come, let's drink. Haha, many people have returned recently. Let's drink to our heart's content." Li Heishui and Dongfang Ye ran over to invite them.
"Haha, it's worth celebrating. Quasi-emperor Pang Bo has consolidated his realm and just came out." Li Tian also laughed in the distance.
"Okay, let's go drink!" Ye Fan nodded.
When they gathered together, they would naturally toss out all kinds of delicacies. What Wu snake soup, Golden Crow wings … there was everything. They were all the archaic species they had killed in the past.
The fragrance of meat and wine wafted through the air.
Ye Fan, Yan Yixi, Pang Bo, Dongfang Ye, Li Heishui, and a large group of people sat together and drank to their heart's content.
Not long after, the group of little ones were all drooling. Regardless of whether they were little boys or little girls, they all ran over like a swarm of bees, fighting over the wine like a group of little bandits.
Everyone laughed.
"You little brats, you dare to fight over wine at such a young age. And you, Li Hu, why don't you control your little sister and let a little girl like her drink too?"
"Hey, Little Violet, you little girl, you're only two or three years old. You can't even walk properly, yet you dare to secretly drink like them?"
The group of adults were angry and amused at the same time.
"Don't be so stingy. Little Violet is only tasting it." The little girl explained and then drank it in one gulp, afraid that she would be deprived of her rights. In the end, as soon as she drank it, she spat out her little tongue and complained that it was spicy and disgusting.
"Nannan is still the most obedient." Someone said.
Only she was the quietest, obediently sitting beside Ye Fan.
In the distance, the sound of a dog barking could be heard. The Black Emperor ran wildly, shouting that everyone was ungrateful and didn't call him.
"You're too busy. You're wholeheartedly in the phoenix nest. I called you twice, but you didn't hear me."
The Mountain Phoenix and the other great demons, as well as Longma and the Golden-Winged Great Peng King, all rushed over when they received the news. The drinking group immediately increased, and in the end, many Heavenly Generals joined in.
"If I am well, then the sky is clear. However, I really can't. This f * cking phoenix nest is like a hornet's nest. Martial Uncle Black Emperor, please spare me. " Hua Hua screamed miserably. He had suffered a lot these days, and his butt was almost beaten into eight pieces by the Black Emperor.
When the laughter ended and he sobered up, Ye Fan sat cross-legged under the Bodhi tree again. He was as still as a boulder and as withered as a dead tree, not moving at all.
"Ye has something on his mind. What kind of difficulty did he encounter? I feel like he is thinking hard about a solution."
"I think it will definitely be very troublesome. With his current cultivation, he won't have a headache over ordinary matters. It most likely involves an ancient supreme being."
Pang Bo, Li Tian, and Li Heishui understood him very well. They immediately saw that something was wrong and gathered together to discuss.
In the end, they walked over with wine jars and asked directly.
"Ye, what's the matter? Let's think of a solution together. Don't sweat it out alone. Our cultivation is inferior to yours, but it shouldn't be a problem for us to come up with an idea. "
"That's right. Let's share the burden together. Don't take everything on your own. Don't treat your friends as outsiders."
…
The group of people looked at him. All of them were close friends who could go through life and death situations together with great enemies.
Ye Fan was very moved. They could see through him when he was deep in thought and revealed an abnormal expression. He sighed and told them what had happened not long ago.
"What? That old bastard Overlord Body also made a move? How shameful, bullying others too much. He really isn't a good person! "
"Look at him. Overlord Body, he actually attacked when Ye is going through his tribulation. Does he want to feed his old face to the dogs?"
"Woof, this emperor is warning you. You can eat whatever you want, but don't speak carelessly!"
…
Ye Fan laughed. This group of people had always been like this. They could still laugh even when they encountered such great difficulties. The atmosphere lightened up.
In the past, Ye Fan had never been afraid. As long as he was strong enough, he could crush the great enemies in front of him. But now, this was not equal. His enemies were ancient supreme beings. Every one of them was once the strongest person of an era and had been invincible their entire lives.
"I've thought about it again and again. There's really no other way. The Celestial Court is too big. In the future, it will definitely suffer a destructive blow because of me. I want the Celestial Court to disperse and gather again in the future."
When these words came out, everyone fell silent. The current Celestial Court was incomparably powerful. Once an order was issued, everyone would obey. Now that it was at its most glorious stage of ascension, they actually wanted to cripple their own martial arts and directly disband.
But they knew that even though it was hard to bear, what Ye Fan said made sense. The best choice now was to let the various departments of the Celestial Court go into seclusion first and wait for the future to gather again.
"As for our children, I want to seal them and let them reappear a hundred years later. I need a hundred years to desperately charge forward. If I succeed, no one will dare to anger my Celestial Court anymore. If I fail, my soul will return to the yellow earth. From then on, the supreme beings won't care anymore, "said Ye Fan.
The scene fell into an even quieter silence. No one spoke.
In the end, everyone nodded and silently agreed to this decision. The final result was that the Celestial Court would be sealed for a hundred years. The celestial soldiers and generals would return to the fields and all go into seclusion.
"I'm sorry. I've caused everyone to suffer," said Ye Fan.
"What are you saying? From now on, you will have to fight with your life on your own. If you succeed, the Celestial Court will be glorious for all eternity. If you fail, you will be doomed eternally. Our brothers can't help you at all. At this moment, there is only helplessness and pain. Ye, you have to work hard! "
"Don't say those words. For you, in this hundred years, there will be two deadly trials. As for the third trial, it's fine even if you don't go through it. Two great achievements are enough. Ye, remember, it's fine as long as you survive. We don't ask for anything else!"
…
These brothers who had gone through thick and thin with him revealed their true feelings. No matter what, he must survive.
Crippling his own martial arts and disbanding the Celestial Court was a difficult decision. The impact was too great. It was simply earth-shattering. Many people might not understand it.
"It's okay. We can definitely start over again. When the time comes, when the banner of the Celestial Court is raised, I think many of the celestial soldiers and generals will come back. Our brothers won't blame you," they comforted him.
"Father, what are you doing? Why are all of your eyes red?" Little Violet ran over from afar.
These men naturally wouldn't shed tears in front of the little girl. However, when Ye Fan thought about how he had to personally seal Little Zi and leave her here, letting her fall into a deep sleep, he felt a wave of sadness. She was still so young, if he lost, this would be the last time he would see his daughter.
Moreover, there were other things at the moment. How was he going to face the people of the Celestial Court?
"It's my incompetence!" Ye Fan looked up to the sky and sighed.
"No, you're already strong enough. Since ancient times, few Great Emperors at your age could have such cultivation," said the Black Emperor.
Although that was what he said, when Ye Fan walked out and stepped onto the General Selection Platform step by step, he looked at the black mass of troops below and found it hard to speak. His heart felt terrible.
"I've been forced to this step. This day has come. I'm helpless …" he muttered in his heart as he looked at the faces. How was he going to announce this news?
Below the platform, there was a group of people with solemn expressions. They were very dignified and respectable. They were the old generals who had walked since the establishment of the Celestial Court until today. There was also a boundless army. They were full of fighting spirit and were in high spirits. They were the generation that had witnessed the glory of the Celestial Court. There was another group of slightly immature faces of the new army. They were full of vigor and were full of hope for the future. They were the troops of the Celestial Court that had just joined not long ago.
This scene made it difficult for Ye Fan to speak after he opened his mouth. All he felt was bitterness.
