The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 503 Bad News Arrangement
One year later, the Holy Land of Yao Guang

“Good news! Our ancestor has sent word that our Lingguang Ancestor, who joined the Holy Court from the Yaoguang Sect, has emerged from seclusion and will be returning to Beidou soon.”

Upon hearing this news, the previously somewhat gloomy leaders of the Yao Guang Holy Land instantly regained their spirits.

A year ago, Ye Fan, the prodigy of Yao Guang Holy Land and the Ancient Holy Body, went to the Ji family to arrange a marriage. However, he encountered an accident on the way and was attacked. His divine power, divine sense, blood energy, and even his origin have been slowly depleting and declining.

Faced with this, the powerful figures of the Yao Guang Holy Land were at a loss and had no choice but to invite back the Great Sage Ancestor who was cultivating on the Ancient Starry Road. They originally thought that with the Great Sage Ancestor's help, they would surely be able to capture the enemy easily.

Unexpectedly, even inviting several great sage ancestors proved fruitless. Yao Guang even sought help from the Ji family and other powerful forces, but to no avail.

Despite this, the Yao Guang Holy Land did not give up. On the one hand, they paid a great price to support Ye Fan, replenish his lost divine power, divine consciousness, and aura, and make up for his lost origin. On the other hand, they sought help from Ling Guang, the ancestor who was born in Yao Guang and later joined the Wuji Holy Court.

Having received a request for help from the Yao Guang Holy Land, Ancestor Ling Guang has emerged from seclusion and is heading towards Bei Dou.

Lingguang Ancestor is a powerful expert at the late Quasi-Emperor stage, and they believe that Ye Fan's question will definitely not be difficult for her.

The speed of a quasi-emperor is incredibly fast. Less than half a day after the news was sent back, Ling Guang returned to the Yao Guang Holy Land and began to examine Ye Fan. Moreover, this was only because she had other matters to attend to; otherwise, she could have returned to Bei Dou in an instant.

"Ancestor, how is Ye Fan?" Looking at Ling Guang, a Great Sage of Yao Guang, who had been investigating for a long time and tried various methods without any effect, and whose face was getting heavier and heavier, he asked with a glimmer of hope.

“I didn’t find a trace of the strange black light either. I could only sense that his divine power, blood, consciousness, and physical constitution were slowly depleting and declining.” Ling Guang’s expression was also not good.

The reason she was willing to help was because Ye Fan possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, which had extremely high potential. If he could pass the Wuji Sacred Court's assessment, there was a high probability that he could grow into an alternative path to enlightenment.

If he can grow to this level, it will not only greatly benefit the Yao Guang Holy Land, but also be of great benefit to her.

Unexpectedly, this powerful woman at the seventh level of the Quasi-Emperor realm couldn't even sense the presence of the black light.

How powerful would one need to be to detect the presence of the black light? How powerful would one need to be to solve Ye Fan's problem?

It is absolutely impossible for an enlightened being to achieve this; perhaps an alternative path to enlightenment, or even the possession of a celestial being, is required.

However, the unconventional Dao achievers of the Wuji Holy Court went into seclusion several decades ago, intending to remain in seclusion for several hundred years. Before their seclusion, they said that they should not be disturbed unless it was a matter of life and death for the Wuji Holy Court. Even if you wanted to ask them for help, you would have to wait several hundred years, by which time it would be too late.

As for the Heavenly Emperor's Faith Body, let alone the fact that she doesn't even have the qualifications to pay homage, even if she did, the price that would be paid to ask the Heavenly Emperor's Faith Body to take action would be something that the Yao Guang Holy Land couldn't afford.

Lingguang sighed softly, informing the Yaoguang Holy Land of this devastating news, and expressed her deep regret for Ye Fan.

During this year, thanks to the various rare and precious materials provided by the Yao Guang Holy Land, and the various methods employed by many powerful individuals, his cultivation not only did not regress, but progressed by leaps and bounds, and he has already broken through to the fifth level of the Dao Palace, only one step away from the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

However, he hesitated to take this step because the higher his realm, the more power and essence he lost, and the greater the cost to replenish it.

Although the Yao Guang Holy Land could afford it, he wasn't their only disciple, and his future was uncertain, so it was impossible for them to provide countless resources to fill this bottomless pit.

Even she is helpless now, so the Yao Guang Holy Land will definitely not give him a lot of resources anymore.

Without abundant resources to replenish his lost cultivation and essence, he will lose all his cultivation and physical essence in less than a year, and be completely reduced to an ordinary mortal.

Even if he could get an alternative Daoist to help him then, without the Holy Body's origin, he would be useless.

Upon receiving Ling Guang's verdict, the powerful figures of the Yao Guang Holy Land, though filled with grief and indignation, had no choice but to accept this reality. Immediately afterward, the many powerful figures of the Yao Guang Holy Land began to discuss arrangements for Ye Fan.

A decision was reached in a short time.

It's impossible to provide him with an extra large amount of rare and precious materials as in the previous year to make up for his lost cultivation and essence.

However, they neither intend to expel him from the Yao Guang Holy Land, take back everything he possessed, nor withhold his cultivation resources.

He will continue to be provided with cultivation resources as usual, but the resources provided will only be based on his cultivation level and status.

The reason for this is that they still hold a sliver of hope for him.

Next, they did not plan to let Ye Fan stay in the Yao Guang Holy Land to cultivate in seclusion, but instead planned to let him go to Bei Dou to make his way in the world.

Legend has it that the Heavenly Emperor left behind many opportunities and blessings in the Big Dipper. If Ye Fan has great fortune, he may be able to obtain great opportunities and solve his own problems.

Even if not, how many resources would a candidate saint in a Dao Palace Secret Realm consume in a year? As for after a year, once he has completely fallen into the mortal realm, he will naturally no longer be a candidate saint and will no longer need resources.

We've already invested so much, so we don't care about a little more resources now.

Knowing that even the Quasi-Emperor Ancestor was powerless, and the arrangements made for him by the Yao Guang Holy Land, Ye Fan calmly accepted them.

To say that he was truly at peace would be a lie; he was simply prepared for this day after repeated disappointments.

However, the arrangements made for him by the Yao Guang Holy Land were somewhat beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that the Yao Guang Holy Land would take back everything it had given him, or at least not invest any more resources in him.

But to his surprise, the Yao Guang Holy Land did not do so, which made Ye Fan feel a sense of belonging to Yao Guang.

Li Daoming was naturally unaware of this, and even if he had, he wouldn't have cared.

After so many years of development, the relationship between Wuji Sacred Court and other Beidou Extreme Dao forces such as the Great Xia Dynasty, the Ancient Hua Dynasty, and Yaoguang Sacred Land is very similar to the relationship between Yaoguang Sacred Land and Lingxu Cave Heaven.

These extreme forces that produce unparalleled geniuses will all be sent to the Boundless Holy Court. After these unparalleled geniuses achieve success in their cultivation, they will also give back to the forces they were born into, as well as the forces that control them.

Of course, these extreme forces are not at a loss either. With the Heavenly Emperor's faith in the Supreme Court, its foundation is becoming increasingly profound. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this universe will be under the rule of the Supreme Court now and in the future.

They didn't want to be ruled; if they wanted to be rulers, they had no choice but to join them. Moreover, the Boundless Holy Court generally wouldn't interfere with them. Not only would they receive a great deal of benefit, but they would also have the hope of traveling to strange worlds with the ancestors who had joined the Boundless Holy Court.

Unless they are fools, they will be the biggest supporters of the Boundless Holy Court.

Even if they had other ideas, their predecessors who had already joined the Boundless Holy Court and become its long-dormant foundation would not allow them to rebel against the Heavenly Gang.

Furthermore, considering his parents and Ye Liuxian's connections, Ye Fan is destined to be a member of the Wuji Holy Court in the future.
