Ye Fan kept his promise. He recast the Void Mirror and repaired its body. Over the years, he killed Supremes, flattened the life forbidden zone, and smashed many ancient emperor weapons. Although most of them had become scrap metal and lost their divine essence, there were still some celestial materials left.
He spent several years reading the Void Scripture and studying the remaining formation patterns of the mirror as well as the gods who were still alive. Finally, he repaired it with celestial materials and made the Void Mirror reappear. He returned it to the Ji family.
This matter shook the universe. Who would have thought that there was still a remnant body left behind from the chaotic battle of the dark side? It might be able to recover and come back to life.
Then, Ye Fan ordered all the cultivators in the universe to search for the broken Eternal Universe Furnace, hoping to save the other hero. This was the first time he issued the Celestial Thearch's oracle.
This was because he had personally witnessed the Eternal Universe Furnace shattering, accompanying the white-robed Jiang Taixu into the distance. It was also like a broken mirror that was buried in the void. When he saw that scene, he had some doubts. He felt that the two Great Emperors used the body of their descendants to fight. Maybe they would find a way to protect their descendants in the end.
This time, seeing Ji Zi's remnant body confirmed Ye Fan's conjecture. How could he not be excited? That was why he mobilized so many people and ordered the whole universe.
Of course, this was not forced. He promised that if someone found a valuable clue, he would give them a complete Dao Scripture. And if someone could really deliver the broken Eternal Universe Furnace, Ye Fan promised that as long as he was alive, he would protect the prosperity of this clan.
Celestial Thearch's promise was so grand. Naturally, many people were tempted.
The Jiang family heard the news and set out. There was hope for the Divine King to come back to life. How could they not tremble? They searched everywhere in the universe.
Jiang Yifei, Jiang Caixuan, and Jiang Tingting took the lead. They swept through the universe, wishing they could turn this world upside down and find the Divine King's whereabouts.
Not long after, someone came to the Celestial Court and brought back shocking news. They knew where the Eternal Universe Furnace was.
The Herculean Bull Demon Clan was definitely a powerful clan in the universe. Although they had never produced an ancient emperor, no one dared to look down on them.
In the past, after an earth-shattering battle, a rain of blood wrapped in half a broken divine furnace fell on their ancient star. Even though the Emperor weapon was destroyed, it wasn't something an ordinary star could stop.
However, the ancient star the clan resided in was extremely mysterious. There was a heavenly cave, and those who went down had never come back alive. The Eternal Universe Furnace fell inside.
Then, all of the clan's experts acted together, covering and sealing the Heavenly Cavern.
After so many years, when Ye Fan became the Celestial Emperor and issued such a powerful Celestial Emperor Decree, they finally hesitated. In the end, after some discussion, their patriarchs personally went to the Celestial Court to inform them of this news.
When the Celestial Thearch set out, who could stop him? Ye Fan brought the Old Ox Devil and descended on this ancient planet in an instant.
Then, he arrived before Heavenly Cave with a single step. With a raise of his hand, he undid the seal. It was pitch-black below, deep and immeasurable.
"So that's how it is. No wonder it can conceal one's aura." Ye Fan sighed.
The universe was boundless and full of secrets as expected. This was an abandoned life forbidden zone, and there were ancient emperor rank formation patterns inside. Moreover, there was more than one.
He went deep inside and found the blood-stained broken furnace. He discovered that this should be a life forbidden zone from the chaotic ancient era. Unfortunately, the supreme beings inside had already died of old age, transforming into the dao.
Apart from great emperors, anyone who came here would die without a doubt. They wouldn't be able to walk out of the five emperor rank formation patterns.
Ye Fan nervously opened the Eternal Universe Furnace. As expected, he found half a broken body inside. His hair was white like snow, and his appearance was young. It was precisely Divine King Jiang who had lived a second life.
"Divine King …" Ye Fan called out with a trembling voice. The Divine King had done him a great favor. Without the other party, he wouldn't be where he was today.
The Divine King's song sighs at the world. Back then, he used divine blood to wash the dao for him, protecting him as he grew up. Moreover, during the Jade Lake Meeting, his zither music intimidated all races.
But now, there was only a broken body covered in blood. It made people's hearts tremble.
The Divine King in White's life was full of ups and downs. After being trapped for many years, he came back alive, but his beauty died in front of him. Thus, he left for the Great Wilderness and lived a second life alone. There was no happiness, only sorrow. He fought the ancient race, quelled the darkness, and ended up like this.
Ye Fan carried his blood-stained broken body back to the Celestial Court.
On this day, another temple was built beside the Celestial Court. It was grand and majestic. Ye Fan sealed another Great Void God!
"Divine King, come back …" he called out, full of emotion.
Since he started cultivating, Ye Fan's will was stronger than steel. But recently, he had been greatly touched. Gai Jiuyou, Ji Zi, and the Divine King in White were the greatest pain in his heart. Now, he finally saw a glimmer of hope.
The three majestic temples stood side by side, glowing day and night. The first thread of telekinesis was personally offered by Ye Fan. With the nourishment of the Celestial Emperor's Light, the multicolored light broke through the sky.
Ye Fan repaired the Eternal Universe Furnace and handed it to Jiang Yifei personally.
After that, he gave the scriptures to the Herculean Bull Demon Tribe and promised to protect them to prosper. The condition was that the tribe did not commit any grave mistakes.
Hundreds of years passed. Other than the three God Sealing Altars, there was also a small temple and a shack beside it.
The small temple was Hua Hua. All these years, Ye Fan had evolved the unparalleled power of the Buddhist faith. It greatly inspired him, so he worshiped himself on the altar to comprehend it.
The Buddhist faith did not decline, and the faith was still flourishing. He was a top-notch figure among the Buddhists, and his name had already shaken the world. He could obtain a large amount of faith power.
Other than him, the shack also flashed with splendor from time to time. There was an altar there, and the Black Emperor sat cross-legged on it. He looked dignified as well.
The Black Emperor had really aged a lot. His satin-like fur had completely turned greyish-white. Most importantly, he was no longer as strong as a bull. His body had shrunk to the size of a normal dog.
He also started to study this method of longevity. Unfortunately, he did not gain much. If the power of faith could be looted, he would have jumped up long ago to snatch it.
"Aiyou!"
Suddenly, on this day, Hua Hua cried out loudly. Blood flowed out from the space between his brows, and he fell down from the divine altar. His entire body shone with buddhist light.
This left the Black Emperor shocked, and it also left the Celestial Court's troops shaken. Hua Hua was now the Quasi-emperor, and his strength was extremely great. How could this type of unforeseen event happen?
Ye Fan, the monkey, and the others were all startled. They hurried over immediately. This was in front of the Southern Heavenly Gate, so who would dare to plot against Hua Hua?
Hua Hua seemed to have transformed into the dao. His entire body was covered in light, illuminating all directions. He was incomparably divine. Only, blood continuously flowed out from the space between his brows.
Ye Fan supported him up, and after a brief inspection, he understood everything. He then stood up and said, "You even dare to touch my disciple?!"
He stood in front of the Southern Heavenly Gate, and with a slash of his right hand, the void was torn apart. He then forcefully grabbed out, and the entire ancient Amitabha Star began to tremble, rumbling with noise.
"Celestial Emperor!"
"Celestial Emperor is angry …"
All the creatures on the ancient Amitabha Star trembled, feeling the might of the Great Emperor. There wasn't a single one of them who didn't tremble and kneel down. However, this situation didn't continue for long. The Celestial Emperor's hand grabbed a stone buddha and disappeared from this place. The great crack in the void closed.
This left everyone horrified. This was the Celestial Emperor's methods! He stood in front of the Southern Heavenly Gate, and there were countless galaxies between them, yet he was able to investigate this place with a single move.
On the stone buddha, a golden-winged great peng spread its wings and took to the sky. It struggled with all its might, but it couldn't escape from Ye Fan's palm.
It wasn't a material object and was forged from the power of faith. However, it was extremely powerful, able to look down on the heavens and attack unyieldingly.
"What is your relationship with the Amitabha Buddha?" Ye Fan asked.
"I am the protector of the Buddha. I had once come into being and was the uncle of the Sakyamuni Buddha." It chanted buddhist sounds, and it was extremely astonishing. Even ordinary Quasi-emperor wouldn't be its opponent.
Everyone was shocked, especially Pang Bo, whose brows stood on end. He was an earthling, so he naturally thought of the legendary golden-winged great peng king.
"Why did you use a secret technique to injure my disciple? Ye Fan exuded power without being angry, causing this golden-winged great peng to tremble. It no longer struggled and landed in his palm. "I am searching for the Future Buddha."
Ye Fan glanced at Huahua and immediately understood. Back on Mount Meru, he had already guessed that Huahua might be the Future Buddha from the Buddhist Gate.
"I … found him." The golden-winged great peng king looked at Ye Fan with a type of reverence. "Celestial Emperor, please allow my buddha to return."
Ye Fan didn't say anything. After a moment, he woke Huahua up and let him choose.
There was a buddha's relic on Mount Meru, but that wasn't the ultimate divine object for his revival. There was another nirvanic dao fruit that existed on the ancient Amitabha Star.
It had been dead for hundreds of thousands of years, waiting for new life!
It extracted the true consciousness of the past Buddha from the hearts of all living beings and gathered it bit by bit, condensing it into a stone buddha.
In the past, the nirvanic dao fruit had been divided into three. The main consciousness entered Shakyamuni's sea of consciousness, and a part of the auxiliary consciousness entered the body of the Western Desert old monk. Later on, it crossed the shore with Ye Fan and entered Huahua's subconscious. The other part had always been in the stone buddha on the ancient Amitabha Star.
"I will always be me, not someone else!" Huahua shouted after waking up. He chose the same path as Shakyamuni, not being Amitabha Buddha and only being himself.
"Alright, the path is under your own feet. This is your own choice." The golden-winged great peng began to burn, turning into flames of faith that melted the stone buddha. Specks of light flew up from the lava and entered Huahua's body.
However, at this moment, Huahua's heart trembled again. The Buddha was merciful and didn't force him. He couldn't steel his heart and chose to fuse with it.
"Amitabha Buddha, only today do I know that I am me." When the rain of light disappeared, Huahua's precious appearance was solemn as he chanted the name of Buddha.
Everyone was shocked. Could it be that the Amitabha Buddha had really revived? The methods of the Buddhist Gate were just too terrifying!
"Master!" Huahua bowed towards Ye Fan.
"Are you still Huahua?" The Black Emperor asked.
"Amitabha Buddha has long passed away in meditation. Of course, I am Huahua. It's just that there are a few more scriptures and insights in my sea of consciousness." Huahua replied truthfully. He couldn't bear it and wanted to accept the remnant spiritual consciousness. In the end, he was the one who obtained it.
"Is good karma repaid? The Buddhist Gate's karma is used on oneself. " The Black Emperor muttered. Then, he unceremoniously slapped down with his claw, smashing into Huahua's bald head. Keng qiang sounds rang out and sparks flew in all directions.
The golden-winged great peng didn't disappear. It turned into a demon-subduing pestle. This was a weapon forged from the power of faith, and it landed in Huahua's hands.
"In the future, you and Qingyang will protect these three temples." Ye Fan said. There were no more suitable people than them. Huahua's gains on the path of faith should be great, and Heavenly Master Zhang Qingyang was also proficient in this dao.
Huahua immediately frowned.
Time passed. This year, Ye Fan was six thousand five hundred years old. During these years, his blood energy actually flourished even more and was always on the path of ascension.
This was truly shocking!
"Boom!"
The sound of tribulation came from the Celestial Court with great momentum. Pang Bo revealed a joyful expression and said, "Wenchang has finally taken that step."
Everyone revealed strange expressions. Zhang Wenchang was definitely a weirdo in the Celestial Court. With friends and relatives like Ye Fan and Pang Bo, the contrast was too great.
His cultivation progress was extremely slow. For thousands of years, he was constantly surpassed by the younger generation generation after generation. However, he was always improving, advancing in an orderly manner, and finally, he slowly caught up.
Every time, he would only break through when his lifespan was exhausted and enter a higher realm to extend his life. This always made people's hearts beat faster.
This time, it was like this again. He looked like he was about to die of old age. Six thousand five hundred years old, he finally broke through from the saint king realm to a higher realm. Not to mention in the Celestial Court, even in the entire ancient times, there weren't many people who dared to do this.
Other people did it when they were young and vigorous. Only he broke through when he was so old that all his teeth were about to fall out. This made people extremely worried, afraid that he would die prematurely.
However, Ye Fan's evaluation of him was very high. He said that Zhang Wenchang didn't have a short life, and his lifespan wouldn't be shorter than a peerless expert's.
"Wenchang broke through again. According to tradition, he has to return to his homeland to take a look. Ye, are you still not going back?" Pang Bo asked.
"I'm going back," Ye Fan said.
"Okay, this time we'll go back together!" Pang Bo was excited.
