Shrouding the Heavens: Various Timelines Revealed, Ye Fan Achieves Immortality Through Nine Incarnat

Chapter 28 Ye Fan's Righteousness

"The greatest opportunity of all time!"

"The path to immortality is real!"

"Ye Fan—he actually refused to become an immortal for the sake of his subordinates!"

"Is he insane? That's becoming an immortal! Countless people have cultivated for eternity just for this one step. Some would even be willing to abandon their wives and family, let alone their subordinates. How can he just give up like this?"

"Excellent! What a magnificent Holy Body Ye Fan! Loyal and righteous, a true pillar of strength! Compared to him, those supreme beings who would stop at nothing to become immortals should be ashamed and commit suicide!"

The Ji family in Ye Fan's timeline was deeply moved.

Ji Ziyue stared blankly at Ye Fan in the sky, her eyes slightly red, her heart churning with complex emotions.

She never imagined that the boy who used to tease and bicker with her would become so great in the future.

For his wife and daughters, he fought valiantly; for his subordinates, he gave up the chance to become an immortal, leaving the hope of life to others while facing certain death alone.

As Ye Fan turned around in the sky, facing the four supreme beings alone, he used all his strength to shout towards the direction of the immortal sect: "I will become an immortal, see you again someday! I love you all!" At that moment, Ji Ziyue could no longer hold back her tears.

She knew Ye Fan well; he had never been one to express his emotions well. Yet, in this moment of life and death, he uttered those four words with difficulty, each word burning with emotion, filled with reluctance and longing. Even through the sky, she could feel the grief and determination in his heart.

The Ji family members were all deeply moved, and their gazes toward Ye Fan were filled with admiration.

The eldest son of the Ji family stepped forward and patted Ye Fan heavily on the shoulder, his tone solemn and gratified: "Boy, you've done well! You haven't let down the expectations of the Ji family, and you haven't let Zi Yue down either!"

Ji Zi gazed intently at Ye Fan, her eyes filled with admiration, and said sincerely, "Brother Ye, your loyalty, righteousness, and selflessness are truly admirable; you are a rare find indeed!"

Meanwhile, in the Dragon Nest, the Dragon Maiden looked at Ye Fan, who was fighting bloody battles in the sky and was willing to give up becoming an immortal for his wife, daughter and subordinates. Her heart was filled with turbulent waves, and her past understanding was completely overturned.

A self-deprecating smile curled at the corner of her lips, her voice tinged with sorrow and mockery: "How laughable—a father can abandon his daughter and his subordinates without hesitation for the sake of becoming an immortal; while Ye Fan can willingly give up the opportunity to become an immortal that is within reach for the sake of those around him. Compared to him, the difference is obvious!"

The Great Sage of Ten Thousand Dragons standing to the side had an increasingly complicated expression. He knew in his heart that the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons, whom they were loyal to, was no longer the emperor who ruled over ten thousand dragons and protected his race. He was now only obsessed with becoming an immortal.

At the same time, his gaze toward Ye Fan in the sky became even more ardent. Such loyalty, righteousness, and sense of responsibility—if he could become the son-in-law of the Myriad Dragons' Nest in the future, perhaps their Myriad Dragons' Nest could truly return to its former glory.

Deep within the Beidou Forbidden Zone, a group of supreme beings gazed at the sky. When they saw Ji Ziyue and her daughter successfully traverse the path to immortality, and Laozi and Shakyamuni, who were only half-formed but had already stepped into the Immortal Realm, their previously dormant aura instantly stirred, and a blazing light ignited in their eyes.

Most of them did not truly believe at first that this path to immortality could lead to the real immortal realm, which is why only a few supreme beings emerged to compete for the opportunity.

But now, the future is clearly laid out before them, and the opportunity to become an immortal is truly within reach. The mindset of all the supreme beings has completely changed.

"The opportunity to become an immortal has already manifested!"

The Stone Emperor of Undying Mountain burst into laughter. The gloom and resentment he felt from being defeated by Ye Fan vanished instantly. His tone was filled with ecstasy and certainty. After eons of dormancy, he had finally found true hope of becoming an immortal.

"Good! Good! Good! The millennia of waiting have finally been worth it! This time, there truly is a path to immortality!"

The Qilin Ancient Emperor of the Primordial Mine could not hide his excitement, and his voice trembled slightly.

During their reigns, they traversed the universe and explored countless so-called "paths to immortality," but without exception, they were all illusions. Never before had they been able to clearly see the possibility of becoming an immortal as they were now.

Now that the heavens have proven everything, they only need to lie low for a few hundred more years to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. How could they not be overjoyed?

Just as the supreme beings were immersed in ecstasy, the Golden Ancient Emperor, with his sharp eyes, was the first to notice the key point, and his tone turned serious: "However, it seems that at most only two or three people can achieve immortality in one lifetime!"

"That's true," another supreme being echoed. "In the heavens, both Lao Tzu and Shakyamuni had to sacrifice half their bodies to barely pass through the gate to immortality, and the gate closed completely afterward. Clearly, the position of immortal is extremely rare."

The Celestial Venerable of Longevity spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of calm calculation: "Even if we follow the example of those two and forcibly pass through by sacrificing parts of our bodies, we can only add three or four more people at most, and the total number will ultimately be limited."

The carefree Celestial Venerable frowned, his tone helpless yet clear-headed: "More importantly, when passing through the Immortal Gate, one's own laws will be replaced by the laws of the Immortal Realm. That is the weakest moment, and someone must protect you throughout the entire process."

Several supreme ancient emperors, with just a few words, thoroughly understood the mysteries of the path to immortality on Flying Immortal Star.

However, they tacitly avoided discussing the selection of a "protector."

Everyone knows that the protectors must never be chosen from the forbidden zones.

They were all dark sovereigns who had severed their own paths and lay dormant for countless ages. Faced with the opportunity to become immortals, they had no feelings for each other and could not trust anyone else.

Moreover, the number of people eligible to become immortals is at most five or six, but the number of supreme beings in the various forbidden zones of the Big Dipper is more than twenty, which is simply not enough to go around.

Everyone knows that when the path to immortality truly opens, all the supreme beings will surely emerge.

To compete for those few spots to become immortals, a fierce and relentless battle will inevitably erupt. In that case, the entire universe may be shattered, and the annihilation of all races is not out of the question.

For a moment, the major forbidden zones fell into a deathly silence. On the surface, it seemed calm, but in the shadows, countless divine senses were quietly intertwined, and secret transmissions were flowing between the supreme beings.

The Qilin Ancient Emperor of the Primordial Ancient Mine was the first to transmit his voice to the Golden Ancient Emperor, his tone carrying a certainty: "I think Ye Fan is the most suitable protector."

"This lad is loyal and righteous. He was willing to give up the opportunity to become an immortal just for the sake of his subordinates. He is definitely not a treacherous person."

The Golden Ancient Emperor immediately responded, his tone full of approval: "That's right! Moreover, his combat power is extremely heaven-defying. With the Immortal Ascension Cauldron on his head, he can contend with the four Supreme Beings on his own. Even on his own, he can probably fight against three or four Supreme Beings. His strength is enough to protect us through the period of weakness of the Immortal Sect."

"But will the Myriad Dragon Emperor and the Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor be willing to join us in winning over Ye Fan?"

The Ancient Emperor Qilin had even more concerns.
