This is not an imperial title that can be easily bestowed, because above the realm of immortality, there is a realm where the title of Immortal Emperor carries significant weight and karmic implications.
Of course, Li Wangxian wasn't averse to this; rather, for him, the Heavenly Emperor was the most revered imperial title.
I was used to calling him a banished immortal, and since the die was cast, I let it go. But now that he has attained enlightenment and is going to take on the title of emperor again, then the Heavenly Emperors take turns sitting on the throne, and this year it's my turn!
Thinking of this, Li Wangxian's divine voice resonated throughout the universe.
"I am the Heavenly Emperor!"
Four short words, yet they spread throughout the heavens and the earth! The Seven Forbidden Zones of Life!
"God!"
In an instant, a storm swept through the universe, and countless cultivators shouted the words "Heavenly Emperor".
Throughout the universe, no one dared to disobey; even the supreme beings in the seven forbidden zones of life remained silent, uttering no sound.
Although this Heavenly Emperor is young, his combat power is the greatest among the Great Emperors in history. Before he even attained enlightenment, he was able to capture the Immortal Phoenix, suppress the Underworld Emperor, refine the Corpse Emperor, and sever immortality. He single-handedly faced several forbidden zones of life, and his might suppressed the Primordial Beginning and the Immortal Tomb. His divine power was awe-inspiring.
Now that he has truly attained enlightenment, even becoming an immortal, he is destined to be infinitely powerful. Such a person is destined to be the supreme ruler among emperors and should be the Heavenly Emperor!
Chapter 562 Ye Fan's Visit
Li Wangxian proclaimed himself the Heavenly Emperor, and his divine voice resounded throughout the nine heavens and ten earths, shocking the world. A supreme Heavenly Emperor who had cultivated for less than two hundred years—this was too astonishing, even more miraculous than a miracle.
But people know that Li Wangxian does indeed possess such heaven-defying strength, and the deaths of many supreme emperors are the most powerful proof of this.
Not to mention the great calamity that just subsided, which affected the entire universe. People even suspect that the Heavenly Emperor has become an immortal, and will be immortal forever, sitting high on the throne, looking down on all the heavens for countless years!
The whole world was in an uproar. The words "Heavenly Emperor" seemed to possess a strange magic, and the cries of "Heavenly Emperor" echoed endlessly.
This sparked a new wave of pilgrimage, with countless clan leaders and powerful figures from across the universe leading their elites across star systems to pay homage to the supreme Heavenly Emperor on the ancient star of Ziwei!
Faced with this situation, the Sun God Cult was already quite adept at handling things, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner. Even the Supreme Heavenly Emperor made a rare appearance and accepted the worship of the saints!
After that, he opened the temple gates wide and personally gave a sermon.
When a Heavenly Emperor preaches the Dharma and expounds the true meaning of the Great Dao, the scene is naturally incredibly grand, with things like heavenly flowers blooming from the void, divine springs gushing from the earth, golden lotuses covering the ground, myriad spirits protecting the Dao, the rotation of Yin and Yang, the birth and death of chaos, and a divine bridge spanning the other shore, leading to an unknown land, and so on...
Various astonishing phenomena descended, covering all those listening. Combined with the Heavenly Emperor's sermon, the people seemed to be bathed in an ocean of the Great Dao, experiencing a profound awakening and gaining a clear understanding of its true meaning.
Everyone who comes here to listen to the scriptures gains something. Many people directly attain enlightenment and break through to a higher realm. Countless others improve their cultivation by several minor realms. Even those who gain the least benefit from the scriptures understand many secret techniques and texts, deepening their understanding of the Dao, which greatly benefits their future cultivation.
This was a grand event that drew countless cultivators from all realms to the scene in a frenzy. However, even though the Sun God Sect had announced the event three days in advance and Li Wangxian had been preaching for seven days, many cultivators still failed to arrive.
The universe is too vast, with galaxies as numerous as clouds; not everyone has the ability to traverse star systems in a short period of time.
Many cultivators who arrived late were filled with regret and despair, lamenting that they had missed such a great opportunity. Anyone would be upset.
After the sermon ended on the seventh day, Li Wangxian returned to his high throne and became the supreme Heavenly Emperor, looking down upon the universe.
However, the throne was neither cold nor lonely, for he was always surrounded by his lovely family, respectable elders, and even close friends of his own generation.
Ye Fan arrived, accompanied by a big black dog and a little girl, as if he were leading a family. He was led into the Imperial Palace by Chong Guang.
There were some things Ye Fan really wanted to know, so he came to ask the Heavenly Emperor!
"Ye Fan!"
Li Wangxian adopted a friendly attitude, greeting Ye Fan warmly. This relieved Ye Fan, who was initially hesitant about how to start the conversation, from his embarrassment. After all, they hadn't seen each other for a hundred years. Even though they had once been brothers and fought side by side, Ye Fan still felt somewhat unfamiliar with Li Wangxian.
Now that Li Wangxian has become the supreme Heavenly Emperor, it's hard to say how he should speak.
However, Li Wangxian's sincere tone instantly brought back memories of those days. Ye Fan didn't mince words; he first congratulated Li Wangxian on his heaven-defying success in attaining the Heavenly Emperor's throne, and then revealed his purpose for coming.
"Wang Xian, I have come here because I have something I would like to ask you, the Heavenly Emperor!" Ye Fan asked earnestly, even with a hint of respect.
Li Wangxian glanced at Ye Fan, then looked at the beautiful little girl beside him.
The little girl blinked, her bright eyes looking at the Heavenly Emperor with curiosity and a little doubt, because she still couldn't remember when she had seen this Heavenly Emperor before.
"Do you want to know about the little girl's origins?" Li Wangxian asked.
Ye Fan nodded and said, "Now that the path to immortality is about to open, many supreme beings from forbidden zones have awakened. In pursuit of longevity and immortality, those people are probably all driven mad. And since little Nannan is so special, I'm afraid some supreme beings will set their sights on her, treating her as a human-shaped elixir to prolong their imperial destiny!"
Li Wangxian understood Ye Fan's meaning. He did come here to find out Xiao Nannan's origins, but he also had the intention of finding a backer for her.
In this life, the truth about the Dark Turmoil had already spread, emerging from the Sun God Cult and various ancient powerful clans. Ye Fan was genuinely worried that Little Nannan would be targeted by the Supreme Being.
Even though the little one was clearly of extraordinary origin, although she had lived on for a long time, she often forgot her past and struggled to live a difficult life in the human world...
In Ye Fan's view, it was obvious that Xiao Nannan's true origins might be quite frightening. She might be incredibly powerful, having accomplished what other emperors and supreme beings could not, and have remained immortal for a long time. However, in her current state, it was clear that something unexpected had happened, and she had lost her power.
If this possibility were to spread, it would be even more terrifying than the fact that the little girl is a human-shaped elixir, because this is a path to immortality. If other supreme beings knew that there was someone who had successfully traversed the path to immortality right in front of them, and who had lost his power, they would definitely capture him and study the method of immortality.
"Don't worry, no one in this world can harm her, not even the Supreme One!" Li Wangxian gave him a serious reply.
This answer surprised Ye Fan. Although the big black dog had said the same thing before, he knew that the big black dog's words were mostly speculation. Perhaps this dead dog had only heard a few words from Emperor Wushi and might not have dared to confirm anything.
Because, after all, the Black Emperor only saw and heard a lot, but he was not truly an emperor or ruler, and had not reached that supreme realm.
But now, Li Wangxian gave the same answer, which made Ye Fan instantly think of many things.
Meanwhile, Chongguang thought to himself, "So, little girl is the Empress's Dao Fruit after all?"
My elder brother once said that the Ruthless Great Emperor has been living in the world, walking the path of immortality life after life. Now it seems that the little girl is the Dao Fruit of the Empress. I just don't know why the Empress is following Ye Fan.
"Heavenly Emperor, does a celestial realm truly exist in this world? Have you become an immortal?"
Before Ye Fan could ask any more questions about the little girl, the big black dog couldn't hold back any longer and asked earnestly and expectantly.
The Great Emperor Wushi was so powerful back then, just like the Heavenly Emperor before us, yet he suddenly passed away without leaving anything behind, leaving the Black Emperor heartbroken.
At this moment, it was very uneasy, afraid of hearing an answer that would leave it in despair.
Although for so many years it had hoped that the Great Emperor Wushi had actually invaded the Immortal Realm, the bloody facts seemed to have already foreshadowed something.
"Yes, I haven't truly become an immortal yet, but I'm already on the path!"
Li Wangxian didn't play the riddle-maker; he directly told the big black dog the answer.
The big black dog was overjoyed and trembled with excitement as it asked, "Heavenly Emperor, Chongguang told us that you are proficient in the Great Dao of Time and Space, and that the Great Emperor Wushi once entered a strange world on a path to immortality? Isn't that the Immortal Realm?"
Ye Fan was shocked. Did a celestial realm really exist in this world? In other words, becoming an immortal was not an illusion?
Although Chongguang had already revealed this to them before, the effect was different depending on who said it.
Li Wangxian looked at the big black dog with a worried expression and slowly said, "Emperor Wushi did not actually enter the Immortal Realm. Eighty thousand years ago was not the correct time and place!"
Even if the Great Emperor Wushi possessed unparalleled power, he couldn't possibly have successfully entered the Immortal Realm; instead, he entered a strange and wondrous world!
Upon hearing Li Wangxian's words, the big black dog's eyes lit up with elation, its large, bright eyes gleaming as it looked expectantly at the Heavenly Emperor.
"According to my calculations, it is a vast world containing substances that can grant immortality. Even with the strength of the Great Emperor Wushi, and even with an Undying Emperor who has not yet severed his own life as an enemy, he should still be unable to bury him!"
Li Wangxian truthfully told the big black dog the truth, which made the Black King extremely excited. If it weren't for the fact that this was the Heavenly Emperor's Palace, it would have howled like a wolf.
Ye Fan's eyes also gleamed with excitement. The secrets of the Great Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor, immortality, and the Immortal Realm filled him with longing.
Chapter 563 The Heavenly Emperor's Banquet
Li Wangxian revealed many secrets, answering all of Ye Fan's questions, including the secrets of many great emperors and the mysteries of reincarnation.
In the past, Ye Fan had been puzzled by the similarities between the Void and the Yellow Emperor, Hengyu and Shennong, the Moral Celestial Venerable and Laozi, and so on. He revealed the truth about all of them.
"Woof, woof... The Great Emperor is about to become an immortal, woof..."
Having finally learned the true situation of the Great Emperor Wushi, the Black Emperor was far from calm. If it weren't for its fear of Li Wangxian, the Heavenly Emperor, it probably would have already been so excited that it destroyed the house.
Even so, the howling and wailing of ghosts filled the palace, causing Ye Fan to break out in a cold sweat.
"Don't run around, dog!"
The little girl tugged hard on the big black dog's tail, afraid that the Black King might get excited and crash into the pillar.
Ye Fan looked at Li Wangxian awkwardly. He remembered that the Heavenly Emperor was a cunning person in the past, and the Black Emperor had been dealt with before. He hoped that he would not have to eat black dog meat this time!
Li Wangxian didn't mind the Black Emperor who kept yelling. Everyone in Beidou knew what kind of person he was, let alone him. After fifty years of hard work, he felt a bit lonely. It was good that someone was making a fuss.
Having not seen old friends for a long time and being away from the world, Li Wangxian, feeling restless and bored, decided to hold a banquet and invite many relatives and friends.
Not only Ye Fan and his group, but also old friends from Beidou came. Pang Bo, Long Ma, and a few bandits were there. Of course, they wouldn't miss the Heavenly Emperor's sermon, so they quickly came over to drink and eat.
In the past, the Human King, Qing Shi, Di Tian, and Yan Chongtian, whom Li Wangxian had subdued on the Ancient Starry Road, all returned to the Sun God Cult during the recent Emperor-Chenging turmoil.
In the past, Li Wangxian's plan to have his divine generals and heavenly kings sweep across the ancient starry sky had, in a sense, failed, because this generation had produced too many ancient princes and forbidden-level figures.
Although the King of Men and others have earned great reputations, especially Yan Chongtian, who has traversed many star systems and vaguely established an invincible reputation, it is still difficult to say that they have swept through the ancient road.
Unless he can defeat a figure of the level of an ancient prince, but clearly, Yan Chongtian, who has accumulated strength and has long since broken through to the level of a Great Sage, is a step ahead of many ancient princes, it will be difficult for him to fight against someone of the same level.
However, Li Wangxian had high hopes for this old saint. This man, who was once the second best in the world in the Divine Realm, had accumulated too much experience in the Saint King Realm. In the original trajectory, even with Dao injuries, he could put great pressure on Ye Fan, who had just created the ancient scripture. In the end, the Divine Realm collapsed, and Yan Chongtian, who had gained his freedom, wandered for a long time before he resolved his Dao injuries. In the end, he still achieved Dao in an unconventional way.
Undoubtedly, this is a prodigy, one could even say he has the potential to become an emperor. Given enough time, there is absolutely no problem for him to rival the emperor's son.
This time, Yan Chongtian, who quickly obtained the essence of Li Wangxian's divine medicine and healed his Dao injury, undoubtedly shone with the most brilliant light, soaring into the sky and overshadowing the young prodigies such as Di Tian, Qing Shi, and the Human King.
This surprised them all, and their Dao hearts were almost broken. However, they were relieved. They thought about how Yan Chongtian had been stuck in the Saint King Realm for a long time due to Dao injuries. The accumulated foundation he had built up was indeed terrifying when it was unleashed. It was only natural that he temporarily surpassed them.
Otherwise, why would such an old holy king be able to gain Li Wangxian's special favor?
Not long after, Chongguang arrived with Jiang Yifei, Ji Zi, and the Holy Prince.
Several bold disciples of the Sun God Cult arrived upon hearing the news, drawing in even more people. Yue Ning and Yue Shi also brought along several of their sisters from the Ziwei Divine Dynasty, further expanding the crowd.
When the Heavenly Emperor hosted a banquet, there was an abundance of delicious food, including Golden Crow meat, Xuanwu soup, honey-preserved holy bear paws, and fire-roasted white tiger legs. Ye Fan even took out his Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron as a pot and placed the meat of the Great Sage Teng Snake on it, which astonished a group of disciples of the Sun God Sect. They had never seen such extravagance, using the Myriad Things Mother Qi, a divine ingredient, to cook.
Even the Heavenly Emperor has never done anything like this with the Chaos Bell!
But the next moment, the ingredients that the Heavenly Emperor took out made everyone dizzy!
A piece of meat with flowing five-colored fairy light was taken out, exuding immortal energy. The crystal-clear meat was shimmering with precious light, and the gorgeous muscle texture was like a series of laws of heaven and earth, making everyone's soul tremble and at the same time, they felt an instinctive desire!
"Gudong..."
Some people couldn't help but swallow hard. Even though it hadn't been grilled yet and was still raw meat, some were strangely tempted and even had the urge to swallow it whole.
"Big brother, could this be the flesh of a phoenix?" Chongguang asked in surprise.
This is the immortal emperor, the biggest mastermind who has lived from ancient times to the present.
Even though it's just a smaller version of the Emperor, isn't it a bit strange to put it on the dining table like this?
“That’s right, it is indeed that celestial phoenix.” Li Wangxian nodded, leaving everyone stunned.
