Ye Fan's divine will was extremely powerful. Even the palace built by the Primordial Emperor and the countless runes laid down couldn't stop him. He instantly knew who was inside.
"It's been so many years. How are the two of you?"
"Brother Ye, is it really you?" The door of the ancient palace was pushed open, and a man walked out. He was tall and majestic, and his body was as strong as a dragon. His skin was bronze, and his long hair was loose. It was very thick, but there were a few strands of white hair mixed in.
"Demon god?" Longma was shocked. He had seen him on the ancient starry sky path back then.
"Southern Demon." The Black Emperor sighed. He was one of the geniuses of Big Dipper back then. It had been so many years since they met again. It made people sigh at the passage of time.
At that time, Southern Demon was in his prime and full of youthful energy. Although his blood energy was still vigorous now, and he had become a peerless expert, he was already over six thousand years old.
Ye Fan also felt rueful in his heart. It was the last time they parted on the ancient starry sky path, and they met again today. In the blink of an eye, thousands of years had passed. If he was an ordinary person, he would have already turned to dust.
Southern Demon was extremely powerful, and could be said to be this world's top combat strength. He was also an unconventional cultivator.
Behind him, there was another person. She had a tall and graceful figure, but her black hair had already turned white. Although she used her magic power to maintain her youthful appearance, it was clear that she had suffered from the impact of time.
It was Qi Huoshui, Princess Qi Qi of the Southern Mountains.
Meeting again made people speechless for a long time.
Youth was fleeting, and beauty aged easily.
When peerless beauties couldn't withstand the passage of time, they would grow old in the wind and frost. To them, this was the most cruel thing. Who could understand the feeling of watching their youth fade away and their grey hair take root?
"Ye Fan." Qi Huoshui sighed softly. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't open her mouth.
She wasn't as powerful as Southern Demon. The marks of six thousand years on her body were relatively more obvious, and her blood energy wasn't as vigorous.
Southern Demon and his sister came over to meet.
Ye Fan captured a meteorite and cut it into a stone table and stool. He took out good wine and reminisced with these two old friends.
"You've become a Great Emperor?" The Southern Demon was astonished. Then, he understood.
They had been trapped here for many years and too many things had happened. They actually didn't know that Ye Fan had already become a Celestial Thearch and that the ancient palace was isolated from the world. However, the Southern Demon was not an ordinary person and would not lose his composure.
"It's been so many years. It feels good to see you again," Ye Fan said.
As the number of people he was familiar with dwindled, he would eventually be defeated in the passage of time. He cherished every single one of his old friends and did not want anything to happen to them.
"This is the Soul Pond left by the Immortal Sky Emperor."
"I already know." Ye Fan nodded.
The Southern Demon recounted what had happened. Back then, they had discovered that ancient palace in the void of the universe. When they entered it, they discovered that it was the place where the Undying Heavenly Emperor had once comprehended the Dao. This had shocked them.
The brother and sister were cultivating there, but they never thought that as their cultivation level increased, the ancient hall would be activated, and the Divine Soul Pond would shatter the space and arrive. The Demonic Fog would also appear, surrounding them and trapping them.
Fortunately, the ancient palace was special and could prevent the corrosive gas from approaching.
As the Southern Demon's cultivation deepened day by day, in recent years, he felt confident in leaving. However, he sensed the wonders of the Divine Soul Pond and was unwilling to leave so easily.
Ye Fan sighed softly. The corrosive gas here was extremely powerful and could even injure supreme beings. It was truly astonishing that the Southern Demon could cultivate to this level. He had already achieved the Dao in a different way.
Just as the Black Emperor had speculated, the Divine Soul Pond was the remnant of the Undying Heavenly Emperor's soul after his transformation.
Ye Fan stood in front of the pond for a long time. Then, he walked around the ancient palace and deeply felt how terrifying the Undying Heavenly Emperor was. He was an unimaginably great enemy.
They gathered here for a long time. Qi Huoshui was very silent. She was once a peerless goddess, but now, her youth was gradually fading away. She felt sad and found it hard to speak when she saw an old friend. Only when it was time to leave did she sigh softly and say, "You haven't changed much."
Ye Fan watched them leave. When they were about to disappear into the starry river, the Southern Demon turned around and said, "Brother Ye, this might be the last time we meet. Take care!"
Ye Fan was silent and sighed. If nothing unexpected happened, the Southern Demon would choose to seal himself and would only reappear after thousands of generations.
"Goodbye!"
On the way back, Ye Fan was very silent. Only after a long time did the Black Emperor say, "Let's walk around a bit more. There's nothing to do anyway."
Ye Fan nodded. Seeking the method of longevity wasn't something that could be comprehended through seclusion. Since ancient times, so many heroes had been stuck. He naturally didn't believe that he could break through the heavens just by immersing himself in dao comprehension.
This journey lasted for more than half a year. They passed by many star systems and caused a great commotion. The Celestial Emperor's tour caused all races to revere him. Many great races came out to welcome him and invite him in, but they were all tactfully declined.
Along the way, they saw many things and sighed inwardly. This glorious era had reached its end and was truly about to come to an end.
Zhang Bairen, Tai Chu, and the others had long disappeared. It was rumored that they had already sealed themselves. They wanted to leave their hopes and ambitions for the future, hoping to defy the heavens and return.
Soon after, they saw a few world-shocking bloodlines that were already declining in their later years. There were even more people who were also starting to grow old and show signs of fatigue.
"Ah, is our youth finally going to end in this flourishing era?"
"Haha, the most resplendent era, the most glorious era. What did I see? Nothing more than this, nothing left behind. In the end, we just hurriedly passed by like this. We are just passersby, nothing more! "
Someone was laughing loudly, tears even flowing out.
The autumn wind rose, and the yellow leaves withered. This flourishing era was finally going to end.
The stars were resplendent. They were so dazzling that people couldn't open their eyes. So many people with imperial talents fought for supremacy, but in the end, there was only a single Celestial Emperor who towered above the nine heavens, overlooking the many generals.
The stars grew dim, and the heroes were all sad.
Since the legendary era, there was a prophecy that the true immortal path would open in this era. The glorious great dao would lead to the other shore, directly reaching a world of immortality.
However, this similarly came to nothing, leaving people with too many regrets. The immortal realm was just that high and distant.
Supreme beings shed tears of blood and heroes grieved. All of this came to an end in this world's legendary era. Countless experts' blood splashed across the starry skies in the great era's struggle, dying.
Too many heavenly geniuses were buried in the starry river. Six thousand years of great battles, six thousand years of glory. Perhaps it would continue for another ten thousand years, but the curtains would still fall in the end. No one could stop it.
"I used my blood to write sonorous war songs. I used my life to blossom with brilliance, and in the end, I listened to the great sorrow of the world. Is this the end?"
Many people raised their heads towards the heavens.
The heroes of the past were all full of vigor and vitality, but now, their hair had already turned white. Moreover, many of them died, and the remaining ones were already covered in the wind and frost of time.
"Is it … going to end just like this? I am unwilling! What can a golden age do?! "
Long songs were weeping, the tears of heroes flowing.
How could they forget, how could they let go? A great era was going to end just like this. The heroes in their prime were all gradually growing old, their curtains were about to fall!
After experiencing a great era, they watched as a world of prosperity blossomed like fireworks, yet they were going to wither just like this.
Ye Fan continued forward, his words becoming less and less. The more he saw, the more silent he became. Was he finally going to send off this era?
"Look, the Heavenly Emperor is sending us off, haha …" Someone laughed loudly, tears long flowing.
"Correct, the Heavenly Emperor is sending us off. He had previously competed with us in the same generation, heh, haha … farewell to this era!" Sorrowful laughter rang through the skies, staggering into the distance.
…
Ye Fan and the others continued forward, arriving at the ancient land where they had previously fought. This was a star domain that had been shattered during the dark age of chaos, a ruined expanse.
At that time, Ye Fan still hadn't become an emperor yet, fighting completely out of hot-bloodedness, carrying the resolution of certain death. He threw himself into the battlefield like a moth flying into a flame.
When they turned around, the entire path was mottled with blood.
There were ruins everywhere, countless star ruins. The blood of all types of creatures dyed this ancient land red, but it still hadn't dried up.
This was a dream broken star earth, the people of the past couldn't return anymore.
"Ji Zi, how I wish for you to be alive so that we can drink a cup together." Ye Fan said softly.
He thought of many things. There was also the father-like white-robed divine king, and the unparalleled sickly old man Gai Jiuyou. They had sacrificed too much.
"How can we forget that even though the Sun Saint Emperor was only left with a piece of human skin during the chaos, he still defied the heavens and returned to fight until his blood ran dry." Longma also sighed softly.
Back then, in the Ziwei Star Domain, the human emperor's skin reappeared. Even in death, he still wanted to protect the creatures of an ancient star, and in the end, the last drop of blood flowed from his eyes before falling.
"There was also the Void Emperor, who spent his entire life quelling chaos until his death. In this era, he still had to shed his last drop of blood, and in the end, only half a broken mirror accompanied him. "
As they talked about the past, they all sighed.
Even Ye Fan had great sorrow and found it difficult to control himself.
Suddenly, the Black Emperor stopped, and Longma also turned his head. Only Ye Fan didn't stop, continuing to walk along this blood-stained battlefield. There was a figure there.
"It's you." Ye Fan recognized her. It was old man Gai Jiuyou's only disciple, Xia Jiuyou.
In the past, she was a genius girl. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, she was able to stand up to the Little Peng King, Yao Guang, and Ye Fan, shocking the Eastern Wasteland.
In the past, she was willful and unruly, but in the end, she was defeated by Ye Fan and taught a ruthless lesson.
Many years had passed, and this genius girl had changed greatly. She had long grown up, and her clothes were as white as snow. Her face was full of sorrow.
Xia Jiuyou was beautiful and moving. She had already reached the Quasi-emperor realm several thousand years ago, and her strength was extremely astonishing. However, there were still a few strands of white hair in her beautiful hair.
"You … why are you here?" Seeing her, Ye Fan couldn't help but think of Gai Wudi. His heart was filled with grief, and he still remembered the tragic scene of the sickly old man straightening his back and shouting, "Who dares to fight me?"
"I'm looking for Master …" Xia Jiuyou said. Tears hung on her face, and she looked very sad.
After so many years, she had actually been searching in the cosmos. She didn't believe that her master had died. That was her only relative, and she wanted to find him.
Ye Fan felt bitter in his heart, and his nose turned sour. Even though he was a celestial emperor, he still couldn't hide this kind of emotion. In the past, he had awakened three hundred years after the darkness chaos ended. He had once searched like crazy, but he didn't find anything in the end.
Unexpectedly, there was someone even more persistent than him. She had searched for more than five thousand years, and she was still searching today!
"The old man doesn't wish for you to be like this …" Ye Fan advised in his heart.
"Master is with me, and he will return. I've found a part of him," Xia Jiuyou said mournfully.
"You …"
"Unfortunately, I only found a drop of Master's blood." Xia Jiuyou's eyes were filled with tears. She carefully held up a divine crystal, and there was a bright drop of blood sealed within.
"Was it really left behind by Senior Gai?!" Ye Fan was greatly grieved.
He looked at it for a long time, and then he walked into the depths of the shattered battlefield. He couldn't help but roar towards the sky, his heart filled with too much helplessness and unwillingness.
It wasn't just Gai Jiuyou. So many people also appeared in Ye Fan's heart. Too many people and matters had passed away just like that.
The past events, day after day, scene after scene, seemed to be right before his eyes.
Ye Fan displayed the Emperor Fist. In this ruined battlefield, it struck the nine heavens, releasing rumbling thunder. There was also a sad song that moved the stars.
"After the Desolate Era, the world moved.
The Big Dipper beacons were thick.
Time stopped, and the ancient race was in chaos.
Sword qi rushed into the heavens, and blood dyed the rivers and mountains.
Zither and drum sounded, metal spears cried, and cold light flickered, illuminating the starry sky.
Unyielding and unyielding, asking who was the hero under the heavens.
Immortal clouds rose, supreme beings appeared, and the path of immortality was fought for tens of thousands of eras.
Fight, fight, fight!
The starry sky collapsed, and all life trembled.
White hair dyed in blood, thousands of corpses, the resentment of young girls in pools of blood, the chaos and war of the mortal world.
Blood splashed in the sky, and swords rushed into the heavens. The chaos of ten thousand ages, the lament of the end of the world.
Mountains and rivers like blood, who could pull them back?
All life called out, and the human emperor fought against the heavens. Blood and tears dried, the world was dark forever.
It was hard to see in the void, and the night flower appeared and withered. A sad song could not bury the heroes of ten thousand ages, and half a broken mirror accompanied them.
Time was like a knife cutting down the proud sons of heaven. The path of immortality sighed enchantingly. The opening of blood and bones was a sorrowful picture scroll.
How many heroes were buried in foreign lands, and how many brilliance could not be seen again.
Nine dragons pulling a coffin, stirring up chaos in the world. White hair whistled and sang, and the end couldn't be found on the path of heaven.
The Emperor's blood burned the starry sky, and the words of the immortal path were eternal.
The beauty sighed, and the hero was in his twilight years. The mortal world lasted for ten thousand years, and the immortal path couldn't be seen.
Battle! "
