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

Chapter 48 Emperor: The Cunning Boy

Chuan Ying nodded slowly, his regret growing: "It's such a pity about Ye Fan. He was only one step away from the mystery of becoming a true immortal, yet he ended up like this. It's truly regrettable."

The Emperor suddenly chuckled, his tone carrying a hint of understanding and mockery: "Chuan Ying, you're still too naive."

He raised his hand and pointed to the sky, slowly saying, "That cunning brat has already achieved the ability to suppress all other paths with one. He didn't fail; he has already broken through to become an emperor! As for his serious injuries—it was just a scheme by a black-hearted brat."

Chuan Ying was taken aback upon hearing this. After a moment of contemplation, she instantly understood Ye Fan's intention. She was immediately dumbfounded and exclaimed in shock, "Even at this point, he still wants to fish?!"

The other celestial beings also realized what was happening, and were all at a loss for words.

In the shadows of the Primordial Ancient Mine in the Taiyin Holy Emperor's Time and Space, several slightly mocking voices rose and fell, their tone full of "comfort" but actually hiding undisguised ridicule.

"Fellow Daoist, it's truly a pity for you, a junior. You went to great lengths to break through the myriad paths, only to end up severely injured and perishing. It's truly lamentable!"

"Yes, yes! To be fair, he was able to suppress all other paths with a single one, breaking countless ancient rules. He has already left a significant mark on the history of cultivation, so his life wasn't wasted!"

"The most regrettable thing is that Heavenly Court of later generations. Without this successor to support it, it won't be long before it falls apart and vanishes into thin air!"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor of Taiyin merely glanced in their direction indifferently, a half-smile playing on his lips. He offered neither explanation nor rebuttal.

With his level of understanding and insight, he had already seen through Ye Fan's little tricks, and thought to himself, "Cunning kid, he knows how to hide, he even fooled these old fogies."

"But does defying the heavens to prove one's Dao mean placing one's mark above all the myriad paths of the universe?! All paths will be beneath one's feet! How domineering!"

On Ye Fan's Ancestral Star, the Space-Time Overlord Body was already in an unprecedented frenzy.

Countless cultivators with powerful bodies spread the news, their cheers and shouts echoing across the entire planet, their faces filled with the ecstasy and relief of surviving a calamity.

"Dead! That demon is finally dead!"

"Heaven has eyes! After being so arrogant for so long, he has finally fallen under the myriad punishments of Heaven!"

"That's wonderful! We no longer have to live in his shadow, and we no longer have to fear that he will crush our clan's Dao heart!"

They gazed at the mangled body falling into the sky, their eyes filled with schadenfreude!

During this time, the future images projected on the screen had already plunged them into endless fear and despair.

Ye Fan, the strongest holy body in history, not only possesses heaven-defying combat power, but is also the nightmare of their Overlord Body Clan.

He not only killed the three Great Completion Hegemon Ancestors, the lifelong faith of the Hegemon Body Clan, but also razed three forbidden zones of life. This intimidation almost shattered the Dao hearts of all the cultivators on the Hegemon Body Ancestral Star.

Deep within the Ancestral Cave of the Overlord Body, the atmosphere was equally lively, and the three Overlord Body Ancestors finally revealed smiles that they had suppressed for a long time.

Canglan's aura of dominance surged, unable to contain his joy, and he laughed loudly, "It's finally over! This kid defied the heavens all his life, but in the end, he couldn't escape the backlash of the Heavenly Dao. It's truly gratifying!"

Xuan Ming nodded repeatedly, his tone full of satisfaction and sarcasm: "Arrogance will be punished by Heaven! He dared to defy the eternal laws of cultivation, insisting on dragging a group of people to prove the Emperor Realm together. Such madness naturally led to divine punishment, resulting in this end!"

During this time, looking at the sky, they were already extremely angry.

If it weren't for their fear of the power of the various forbidden zones, they would have already broken out of their ancestral planet and eradicated this major threat.

Kungu's eyes were filled with resentment and venom as he gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait and see! I want to see how he dies! Those supreme beings from the forbidden zones in the Heavenly Curtain all hate him to the bone. Now that he's so badly injured, they will never let him go!"

The usual liveliness and excitement of the Ji family in Beidou have completely vanished, replaced by a heavy sense of dejection, with an oppressive atmosphere permeating the air.

Ji Ziyue's eyes reddened, and glistening tears welled up in her eyes. She covered her mouth tightly with her hands, her voice choked with sobs, and she could barely utter a complete sentence.

"Little Leaf, this—how could you—"

Her once bright and lively eyes were now filled only with endless panic and heartache.

Ji Zi frowned deeply, her gaze fixed on the sky, her expression extremely solemn. She murmured in a low voice, "She had clearly placed her own Dao above all other Daos, breaking through the shackles of eternity, she had clearly already broken through to become an Emperor, how could she have ended up like this?"

He couldn't understand how Ye Fan, with his incredible resilience and iron will, could fail at the last step.

Pang Bo, usually so playful, stood with his hands on his hips, his expression grave, his eyes filled with resentment: "Impossible! How could Ye Zi lose? He even withstood the Heavenly Tribulation of Ten Thousand Paths, how could he fall at the last moment?"

He refused to believe that his sworn brother, who fought alongside him and was seemingly invincible, would end in such a tragic way.

The eldest son of the Ji family, Sheng, who was standing to the side, also had a pale face and a dejected expression, full of regret.

Ye Fan's extraordinary abilities had long been his hope, but the scene before them now shattered all their expectations.

Even the usually boisterous, greedy, and restless Black King lost his usual arrogance, hanging his head and lying on the ground.

"Hey kid, just be more careful next time. Don't be so reckless, don't gamble with your life again."

Only Ye Fan remained unaffected by the dejection around him. Instead, he frowned, his gaze fixed intently on the figure reflected in the sky.

He looked at his "broken" self with a puzzled expression.

"That's not right—this doesn't fit my personality."

He knew himself too well; even if he were in dire straits, even if he were seriously injured and on the verge of death, he would never "fall" in such a wretched manner.

The Undying Emperor of this strange world stood high in the heavens, gazing at the mangled body reflected in the sky. A disdainful smile played on his lips as he coldly snorted, "Just a petty trick!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly became solemn, his gaze sharp as a knife: "To place one's own imperial seal above all the myriad paths, and not to be in harmony with the universe, is indeed quite powerful."

"Powerful and ruthless, it seems you will be my greatest enemy in the future. Let's wait and see whether your methods, Emperor Ye, are more cunning, or whether my Undying Emperor will prevail!"

"I've reserved your Heavenly Emperor's blood!"

The scene continued to shift, switching to the busy figures of the Heavenly Court. The entire Heavenly Court was mobilized, with millions of heavenly soldiers and generals scattered throughout every corner of the universe, methodically collecting and refining the materials for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill. The scene was magnificent and its power overwhelmed the world.

Beneath the celestial canopy, all the spirits of the heavens were utterly shocked by this scene, their cries of astonishment rising and falling, filled with disbelief.

"Is this the true power of the Heavenly Court in later generations?!"
