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

Chapter 516 The Ancient Prince's Thoughts

If there were no other choice, then needless to say, in order to become an immortal and to have a long lifespan, he would ignore all other problems and do everything in his power to fight for a sliver of opportunity, a sliver of life.

However, if there were other options, he would prefer to join the Boundless Holy Court rather than attack the path to immortality or conquer strange worlds on his own. Not only would there be no risk involved, but he could also reunite with his children and clansmen and gain a long lifespan together.

Moreover, given the Heavenly Emperor's terrifying power, there's a possibility that one day he might invade the Immortal Realm and lead them to immortality.

"However, what if the Heavenly Emperor's faith body breaks its promise, agreeing to accept me but then going back on its word after eliminating other forbidden zone supreme beings?" Thinking of this, the Golden Ancient Emperor couldn't help but feel a little worried.

However, in an instant, the Golden Ancient Emperor wiped away this trace of worry.

If the Heavenly Emperor's followers truly wanted to harm them, they could have done so while they were conquering the path to immortality and the strange worlds.

Based on the power previously displayed by the Heavenly Emperor Faith Body and the Limitless Emperor Sword, it is absolutely capable of suppressing or even killing more than twenty supreme beings who have reached the ultimate sublimation.

Moreover, over the past tens of thousands of years, the universe has accumulated at least ten alternative Dao attainers. Even if they cannot defeat the Ascended Supreme Beings, they can still hold them off.

Looking at the grandeur of this golden age, at its peak, it is highly likely that twenty or thirty unconventional cultivators will emerge, or even more.

Furthermore, the Wuji Holy Court has some who are about to attain enlightenment and have cultivated the body of an emperor, enabling them to unleash supreme combat power. There are also a large number of saints in the universe who can form formations and wield supreme imperial weapons, also enabling them to unleash supreme combat power.

With a single command from the Heavenly Emperor's Faith Body, even if the number of Supreme Beings in the Forbidden Zone were more than fifty, let alone less than thirty, they would absolutely be unable to withstand it.

In this situation, it is not worthwhile for believers in the Heavenly Emperor to ruin their reputation.

It's unclear what the Golden Ancient Emperor was thinking in that instant. Not long after the Golden Ancient Emperor spoke, the Myriad Dragons Ancient Emperor and the Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor also spoke in succession, agreeing to spare a bit of their attention to go to the Big Dipper.

Having made their decisions, the four of them didn't hesitate. They silently diverted a sliver of their attention to pass through the inner chaos and descend to the ancient star of the Big Dipper to meet their offspring.

The four people's divided thoughts did not linger on the ancient Big Dipper for long. In less than half an hour, they all withdrew their divided thoughts and fell asleep again.

At this moment, the five ancient princes who had met their father were all very unsettled.

"Brother! Do you think Father can break into the Immortal Realm or the Strange World?" Huo Lin'er asked, tears still wet on her face.

"It's definitely possible!" Huo Qizi gently wiped away Huo Lin'er's tears and said with a firm expression, "Father is an invincible ancient emperor. All the heroes of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths look up to him, including the gods who kneel down and worship him. He can definitely conquer the Immortal Realm, or at the very least, he can conquer the Strange World."

"Yes!" Huo Lin'er nodded firmly, but tears still streamed down her face uncontrollably.

After a long while, Huo Lin'er stopped crying, wiped away her tears, looked up and gazed into the distance, her crystal eyes revealing a trace of hesitation.

"It is said that the Heavenly Emperor mainly cultivates the Yin-Yang Dao, is skilled in the dual cultivation method, and is extremely fond of beautiful women. Female cultivators who join the Wuji Holy Court will not refuse him as long as they are willing to serve him."

"If I join the Boundless Holy Court and am willing to serve the Heavenly Emperor, will the Heavenly Emperor's faith avatar allow my father to accompany him to the strange world when the Heavenly Emperor reopens the passage between the two realms?"

"It should be true. Father has never instigated any dark upheavals, and he has no blood feud on him."

At this moment, she recalled her father, whose majesty commanded the gods' submission and whose loving kindness led him to pick tea leaves for her to drink every day, as well as the separation and death they experienced in ancient times.

The hesitation in Huo Lin'er's eyes quickly vanished, replaced by unwavering resolve: "No matter what, I don't want Father to die, I don't want Father to leave me, I don't want to be separated again, even if the possibility is small, I won't give up." "Sister, what are you thinking about?" At this moment, sensing Huo Lin'er's gaze, Huo Qizi had a vague premonition of something bad.

"It's nothing! I think we should cultivate even harder. We need to grow up as quickly as possible so that we can fight alongside Father when he attacks the path to immortality," Huo Lin'er said, clenching her fist.

She didn't intend to tell him her choice. If she did, she was sure he would worry and do everything in his power to stop her and dissuade her from pursuing her idea.

Rather than making him worry and stop her, it's better not to tell him. Two years later, when it's too late to stop him, he won't be able to.

"Hmm!" Huo Qizi didn't notice anything amiss upon hearing this. He greeted Huo Lin'er and then immersed himself in his cultivation.

……

"Father, is this your arrangement for me? To join the Boundless Holy Court and serve the Heavenly Emperor!" The Golden Heavenly Maiden clenched her fists, and unknowingly her bright golden eyes filled with tears.

Even though she thought her father, who could stand up for her, was dead, even though she faced pressure from many forces in the Beidou system, even though she was defeated by Ye Fan... she remained incredibly strong.

But at this moment, she could no longer suppress the grievances and vulnerability in her heart.

Although her father was not dead, in her mind, that great father was gone, and had collapsed.

After a while, the Golden Goddess wiped away her tears. Her golden hair was as bright as the sun, and her eyes shone with gold. She was as radiant as a sun goddess, yet she exuded a cold aura.

……

"Father didn't die! He even ventured into the forbidden zone of life. I hope he can make it into the Immortal Realm or some other strange world!"

"Otherwise, the Heavenly Emperor's faith might not allow Father to accompany him to the strange world. Even if he does go, he might be killed by the Heavenly Emperor." Thinking of this, the joy in the Dragon Girl's eyes faded, and she couldn't help but reveal a trace of worry and trouble.

"According to Father, the fathers of Huo Qizi, Huo Lin'er, Golden Heavenly Maiden, and Huang Xudao have also entered the forbidden zone of life, and have not launched any dark disturbances. Perhaps we can contact them to see if they have any way to persuade the Heavenly Emperor's faith body to allow Father to accompany him to the strange world."

……

"Father is still alive!" Huang Xudao's eyes brimmed with barely suppressed excitement, but he quickly calmed down.
"My father wants me to offer the Blood Phoenix Ancient Scripture, its accompanying forbidden secret techniques, and the method of merging the primordial spirit with the Dao weapon to the Boundless Holy Court. After breaking through to the alternative path to Dao, I need to see the Heavenly Emperor's Faith Avatar and ask if I can be allowed to accompany him to the strange world. I don't know if the Heavenly Emperor's Faith Avatar will agree."

"I hope the Heavenly Emperor's faith will grant my request! I am willing to pay any price if he does."

……

Time flies, and the years flow by like a river, moving ever onward. Two years have passed in no time.

As usual, the Boundless Holy Court dispatched quasi-emperors, either in their true form or in avatars, to take the Trial Tower to many ancient life stars and sources of life to conduct trials once every hundred years to recruit new talents and send qualified geniuses to the ancient star road.

It must be said that this era truly deserves to be called an unprecedented golden age.

The Golden Age had only just begun when the Boundless Holy Court had already recruited over three hundred prodigies.
