This is because, on the path to enlightenment, one has already honed one's character through countless trials, making one's resolve unwavering and invincible.
He himself had made a small splash back then.
Among countless corpses, he became the last ancient emperor.
It merges with the will of Heaven, suppressing all paths.
Even though he knew about the system's underhanded tactics at the time and managed to eliminate them in time, it couldn't change the fact that he hadn't honed his skills enough on his path.
After becoming emperor, he became overly cautious and timid, but his moral character was flawed, without his own awareness.
Now Qin Feng understands that only he can be called the true, flawless emperor.
With a perfect Dao heart, even if Fuxi were to be reborn, he could still crush him to the ground, simply because he had accumulated merit over three lifetimes.
The Taiyin Emperor said, "Indeed, fellow Daoist, you have deduced the passage of time and accomplished what we could not, glimpsing a corner of the future."
"But the future has too much influence on you, and you cannot get rid of its influence. Therefore, many of your actions are based on the future, making it difficult to break free from your own constraints."
Qin Feng listened and took notes.
Then, the old man in blue added, "If you entrust everything to the future, how can you break through your own path and open your own immortal path?"
Qin Feng smiled.
Hearty laughter echoed throughout the immortal abode.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, he continuously toasted the two venerable elders, the Taiyin Emperor and the old man in green.
The two senior figures must have already seen through my situation.
But there's nothing else to it; matters of the Daoist heart must be understood, penetrated, and rediscovered by oneself.
"Perhaps this is what integration is."
Qin Feng laughed heartily, thinking to himself, "Now that I've come to this vast universe, where everyone is stubborn and reckless, I want to live for eternity, so I'm not a true native."
"In this way, how can one become an immortal, how can one break through the future? My path should be to use my own strength to break through the eternal universe and wait for Ye Hei and the others. Although they can enter the immortal realm, there will also be a day when they die."
"I'm going to die anyway, so why should I care about that dark future!"
The light of the celestial being rippled across Qin Feng's body.
Countless ages later, in the true heavens above, there lies a battlefield where endless bloodshed reigns.
At that moment, Qin Feng remembered those rhymes that could be used to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination.
At the end of the immortal path, who stands atop the peak? Only the decaying corpse of the beginningless past and the broken bell remain!
I am the Heavenly Emperor's nemesis, lying in a bronze coffin, learning the void!
The empress, whose talent surpassed all ages, fled across a wooden bridge in despair, seeking rebirth!
The desolate emperor who ruled for eternity, forgotten by the world, has vanished without a trace!
Chaos is about to break out in all the heavens and myriad realms; just watch as Chu Feng hides in a jar!
The future is dark. Ye Hei's gang members are either dead or in hiding, or in despair. They're all going to die sooner or later anyway, so what's there to fear?
"Thank you both, fellow Daoists. I will definitely seek a way to be reborn in the future, so that you may reappear in the mortal world!"
Qin Feng made a promise.
At this moment, he had a way to truly bring back the Taiyin Emperor and the old man in green.
But the time is not right, the time is not ripe, and it cannot be mentioned.
"Fellow Daoist has gained some insight; this is an opportunity for you!" said the Taiyin Human Emperor.
Qin Feng nodded and sat down at the table.
After he severed the forbidden zone, the "Red Dust Sutra" that he created was taken out.
Previously, many ancient scriptures had been incorporated into it, such as the Taiyin Immortal Scripture, the Taiyang Ancient Scripture, and the Fengtian Scripture.
As the stone book turned, Qin Feng used his finger as a brush to write three large, gilded characters on the stone page.
—The Qilin Chapter.
Before long, Qin Feng inscribed his insights from the Qilin Ancient Scripture, gained during his discussions with the Qilin Emperor over the past thousand years, into the "Red Dust Scripture".
Seeing the Sealing Heaven Scripture gradually being filled, Qin Feng had a faint smile on his face.
Once you understand one thing, you understand everything; with an open and generous mind.
"Fellow Daoists, perhaps we will have to go out again."
Qin Feng said, "Now that I have found my true purpose, I should no longer cling to life forever, but should truly seek a way to transform myself and live out my fourth life."
"As for the promise to Fellow Daoist Fuxi, he will naturally fulfill it thousands of years later to protect his cousin Nuwa, but it will only be a matter of course. Excessive interference will only cause trouble."
As Qin Feng spoke, he prepared to leave the Immortal Abode.
As they approached the gate of the Immortal Abode, Qin Feng stopped and continued, "If Fellow Daoist Nuwa can truly catch up with my footsteps in the future, or conquer the Immortal Path, I can be of great help."
Having said this, Qin Feng left the Immortal Abode.
In many forbidden zones of life, fellow travelers are always few and far between.
Ancient emperors like the Qilin Emperor are extremely rare.
Ancient emperors and great emperors, who wouldn't be amazed? In the ancient immortal era, everyone could become an immortal. But above the heavens, true darkness can lead to despair.
The Stone Emperor, the Immortal Daoist, the Immortal Heavenly Emperor, and the Emperor Venerable have long since abandoned their Daoist hearts and are no different from ordinary people.
Even if they enter the Immortal Realm and reach the Heavenly Realm, they will only become capable assistants to the Weird Faction, providing no help whatsoever. Instead, they will only supply fresh blood to the Weird Faction.
Standing tall atop the celestial abode.
Qin Feng had never felt so clear-headed before.
At this moment, Qin Feng realized that he was the true ancient emperor, the one who truly stood at the pinnacle of all paths.
"It should have been something I understood on the day I attained enlightenment, but it took me tens of thousands of years to realize it. My advancement really came too easily."
Qin Feng was filled with emotion.
In the next instant, divine thoughts surveyed the vast expanse of time and space.
The entire universe seemed to be under his control.
There wasn't an exaggerated health bar, but the majesty of the ancient emperor that was unintentionally swept over him terrified all living beings in the world.
Naturally, the Stone Emperor and other supreme beings of the forbidden zones were awakened, but after glancing at Qin Feng, they fell back asleep.
Feng Tian is a madman... well, I'm used to it, let him be.
Qin Feng soared to the heavens.
A moment later, it stood atop the myriad paths, overlooking the vast universe.
"The Daoist heart has returned, and minds are in harmony, then—"
"From this moment on, I will become the Great Emperor of Humanity!"
Chapter 38 Meeting the Celestial Venerable, Chaotic Ancient Burial Ground
Throughout the universe, the Dao is in motion.
Qin Feng was thoroughly enjoying the scenery; he had almost forgotten how many tens of thousands of years it had been since he had seen anything like this.
Reflecting on his two lifetimes as the Great Emperor of the Human Race, it seems he had never been so magnanimous.
Within the Sea of Bitterness, the Yin Emperor and the old man in green robes wore smiles.
Nourished by the gushing divine spring, the two of them looked increasingly better.
With Qin Feng's Dao heart returning, the nourishment from the divine spring for them reached an even higher level.
“Fellow Daoists, in this life, I should perhaps follow the path of faith, like the Undying Emperor.”
Qin Feng thought to himself, "But unfortunately, after the battle with Fuxi, I became infamous among the people. The path of faith is blocked, so I can only take other paths."
As they spoke, Qin Feng began to make plans.
There are countless methods to achieve immortality; any method that leads to immortality can be called a method of achieving immortality.
Everyone has their own unique understanding.
After much deliberation, Qin Feng made a decision: "Perhaps, in this life I should follow the path of nurturing the Hundred Scriptures in the furnace, and my Scripture of the Mortal World is very close to this path."
Choosing this method is the best option at present.
Qin Feng remembered that the Empress had walked this path before.
The Devouring Heaven Demon Art is actually such a method, except that one nourishes the meridians and the other nourishes the origin.
"However, in my time, the scriptures are limited, and it is not easy to learn from those ancient imperial scriptures. Moreover, it is difficult to find the forbidden true interpretations. So it seems that I can only follow the example of the Empress and learn from the methods of the Heavenly Venerable."
Qin Feng seemed to be deep in thought, carefully deducing the course of countless ages.
His divine senses traversed the universe, seeking something tangible.
"It actually failed. That fatso Duan De's tomb is really hard to find." Qin Feng clicked his tongue. He had just been trying to find Cang Yu to locate the tomb of Duan De's fourth incarnation.
Qin Feng overlooked one thing: tomb raiding is something that Duan De, or rather Cao Yusheng, has mastered to an unparalleled level. It's not something he can find just because he wants to.
"Therefore, it seems that the only place I can find the Celestial Venerable's ruins is there."
Qin Feng sighed softly.
In this day and age, he knows the whereabouts of several Celestial Venerables.
After thinking it over, he decided not to go. The person who had long since lost his beliefs was no longer on his path.
The dimensional gate opened, and the four spirits surrounded it.
The aura of ancient emperors permeates the vast universe.
Qin Feng took a step forward, and in the next instant, he appeared in a vast divine realm.
The Heavenly Soldiers Ancient Star is the place where the emperors of the mythical era forged their weapons, and it is also the ancient star that was transformed from the head of the Lingbao Heavenly Venerable after his death.
"Fellow Daoist Lingbao has already passed away. Are you here to find out if Fellow Daoist Lingbao still has any divine remnants in the world?" asked the Taiyin Emperor.
Qin Feng shook his head: "Yes and no. It's too old, or it might not work anymore, but we can try."
