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

Chapter 514 The Four Emperors Awaken
They spent nearly a month discussing and exchanging ideas in the Dragon Nest before the six of them parted ways, wanting to go back and digest what they had learned from this exchange.

Perhaps sensing the benefits, the six agreed before parting to meet once a year to exchange scriptures and secret techniques, and to discuss and hone their skills.

With the alliance of the six, their relationship became closer, and the five ancient royal families also began to communicate more frequently and closely.

The five ancient royal families united and worked together to cope with the pressure from various forces in the Big Dipper. For a time, the pressure they were under was greatly reduced.

Inner Chaos, Primordial Ancient Mine
"Hmm! Another golden age has arrived. There isn't much time left before the path to immortality opens. My sons and the others should have already been born." The Qilin Ancient Emperor slowly awoke, his gaze incredibly deep, looking towards the direction of the Big Dipper Ancient Star.

Soon, in just a few breaths, he learned everything he wanted to know.

"As expected of an unprecedented golden age, even my children cannot stand out. Not only are there many people who can keep up with them, but there are even people who can surpass them." The Qilin Ancient Emperor sighed with emotion.

It should be noted that his children were not ordinary ancient princes. They were conceived after he attained the Dao and became emperor. Furthermore, he devoted all his efforts to laying a solid foundation for them, so their foundation and potential far surpassed that of ordinary ancient princes.

In his view, the two siblings were no less capable than he was in his youth, and perhaps even more capable.

Even so, there were still more than twenty peerless geniuses who could rival them, and one person who stood above them, which shows the glory of this golden age.

Thinking of this, the Ancient Emperor Qilin couldn't help but become interested in Ye Fan, who surpassed even his children, and turned his gaze towards him.

"Ancient Sacred Body!" The Qilin Ancient Emperor recognized Ye Fan's physique, but his eyes remained unmoved.

It's just an ancient holy body; he's seen it many times. It's very strong to others, but as an ancient emperor, he has the confidence to not take it seriously.

The Qilin Ancient Emperor's eyes became even more profound, as if he wanted to see through all of Ye Fan's secrets.

However, at this moment, as if sensing the gaze from the unseen, the Wuji Emperor Tower trembled slightly, and three thousand threads of law descended, imprinting the illusory image of the Heavenly Emperor on it, as if it were about to come to life.

"The aura of the Heavenly Emperor!" Sensing this, the Qilin Ancient Emperor's expression changed. Without the slightest hesitation, he withdrew his gaze and severed the causal link.

"It actually has the aura of the Heavenly Emperor. It's an artifact. Did the Heavenly Emperor forge other artifacts as well?" The Ancient Emperor of Qilin was somewhat surprised and puzzled.

Although he was somewhat surprised and puzzled, he silently added Ye Fan to his list of people he should not mess with, and decided to give his children a heads-up when he went to see them later.

Although he only caught a fleeting glimpse and sensed the aura of the Heavenly Emperor flowing through the Imperial Tower, he withdrew his gaze before it could revive on its own.

But he could vaguely sense the terror of that imperial tower, which might not be weaker than the Wuji Emperor Sword that had once appeared in the world.

The Limitless Emperor Sword that once appeared in the world killed a supreme being who had reached the pinnacle of sublimation in less than ten breaths, even though that supreme being was in a much worse state than him.

But he was certain that if the Wuji Emperor Sword wanted to kill him, it wouldn't take long. In other words, if the Emperor Tower wanted to kill him, it wouldn't take long either.

At this moment, he also understood why Ye Fan was able to defeat his children.

Although it is unknown how much of the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance Ye Fan obtained, it must have been considerable. With the Ancient Sacred Body and the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance, it would be problematic if he were inferior to his children!

Gently shaking his head, the Ancient Emperor Qilin stopped paying attention to Ye Fan and turned his gaze to his children, wanting to spare a bit of his attention to see them. However, at this moment, he thought of something and hesitated slightly, not continuing to act.

Although he had severed and sealed himself, the energy expenditure during his slumber was vastly different from that during his awakening.

To conserve energy, he generally won't awaken unless something major happens, such as an emperor attaining enlightenment or falling from grace.

The Golden Age has only just begun, and there is still some time before the path to immortality appears. Nothing major has happened yet, so logically, he shouldn't be awakening at this time.

But he still woke up, naturally because he had something to do!
what's up?

He urged his children to participate in the trials and join the Wuji Holy Court two years later, on the day when the Wuji Holy Court recruits people once every hundred years.

He deliberately awoke, wanting his children to join the Boundless Holy Court, both for their sake and for his own.

As long as they join the Boundless Holy Court, under its protection, they will be able to cultivate peacefully and achieve enlightenment through alternative paths.

When one's cultivation reaches an unorthodox level of enlightenment, one can seal oneself off when one's lifespan is nearing its end. Once the Heavenly Emperor reopens the passage between the two realms, one can enter a strange world and gain a long lifespan.

Moreover, by following the Heavenly Emperor, they might be able to enter the Immortal Realm in the future, and perhaps even become immortals.

Furthermore, the last time the Boundless Holy Court invaded the Strange World, its members had a certain number of slots to bring some people into the Strange World, and as far as he knew, the next time would be no exception.

If they join the Boundless Holy Court, when the Heavenly Emperor opens the passage between the two realms again, will he be able to use their light to enter the strange world?
If he had instigated the Dark Turmoil, he certainly wouldn't dare enter the Strange World in this way.

Regardless of whether the Boundless Holy Court would allow him to pass, even if it did, he felt that if he went to the strange world, he would likely be casually killed by the Heavenly Emperor.

But he never instigated any dark rebellion, and his children have all joined the Boundless Holy Court, so the Heavenly Emperor might not kill him.

Of course, this was just a backup plan, in case he failed to reach the path to immortality and was unable to enter the strange world.

If possible, he still wanted to enter the Immortal Realm and become an immortal himself, or enter the Strange World, rather than relying on his children to enter the Strange World and leaving his own fate to be decided by the Heavenly Emperor.

But his children have already decided to join the Boundless Holy Court. Is it really necessary for him to expend energy and distract himself to travel through the inner chaos to see them?
After a moment's hesitation, the Ancient Emperor Qilin decided to meet his children, both to remind them of Ye Fan's trump card and to prevent them from being arrogant and having the idea of ​​besieging and killing Ye Fan, and also to meet his daughter.

In an instant, the Qilin Ancient Emperor spared a sliver of his mind, but before he could transmit this sliver of his mind to the Big Dipper Ancient Star, he saw the Myriad Dragons Ancient Emperor, the Golden Ancient Emperor, and the Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor all awaken.

She seemed to have been startled awake by his previous actions, or perhaps she was already preparing to wake up at this time, or perhaps both.

After the three of them awoke, they exchanged a glance with the Qilin Ancient Emperor, said nothing, and then turned their gaze to the Big Dipper Ancient Star before quickly looking away.

By this time, they had learned everything they wanted to know.

Of course, they didn't have the leisure of the Qilin Ancient Emperor to pay attention to a little guy who had just broken through to the Immortal Three Dao, so they naturally wouldn't attract the attention of the Wuji Emperor Tower, and naturally they didn't know Ye Fan's background.
