Yunhua smiled, feeling that what Hu Niu and the others had done was a bit extreme.
Yunhua knew very well that they were doing this because of her.
They rose to power because of Yunhua. If it were his clan or lineage that acted recklessly, people would be angry but dare not speak out. However, they would definitely blame the True Immortal, or even Yunhua.
The immortals protect their own families, and the Heavenly Emperor in turn protects the immortals...
This has no real impact on Yunhua, but Ji Lianxing and the others know what kind of person Yunhua is and don't want to make things difficult for him.
Fortunately, this extreme approach eliminated the problem at its root.
This may be somewhat unfair to the Ji and Jiang families, and some even harbor resentment.
But Ji Lianxing and the others didn't need to consider those people's opinions.
And most people can understand what the true immortals do.
To put it bluntly, Ji Lianxing and her family had never even met most of the members of the Ji and Jiang families.
Even among their clansmen, none of them were as close as Yunhua and the others.
The BeiDou Conference was spectacular, but Yunhua left after watching for a while, continuing to wander through the universe, exploring every corner of it.
In the end, Yunhua returned to the depths of the Void God Realm.
The depths of the ethereal realm were serene and deserted.
Chapter 1443 Reunion with the Ruthless Man
"It seems they're all in the Boundary Sea."
Yunhua whispered that when he returned to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths universe, he made contact with us and learned about the situation in the Boundary Sea. The situation was extremely critical.
Suddenly, a figure in white slowly appeared, her aura revealing that she had just returned from the Boundary Sea.
Yunhua saw her, and she also noticed Yunhua.
Looking into those clear, beautiful eyes, Yunhua smiled.
Clad in white, she was peerless, with a cool and aloof demeanor, just as she had always been, just as I remembered her.
Like the moon in the sky, the spring in the mountains, and the morning breeze, it soothes the heart and brings peace.
Okay, actually it's just that I'm good-looking.
"Long time no see." This simple phrase represents more than 400,000 years.
Yunhua and the ruthless person have only known each other for about 150,000 years.
In response to Yunhua's words, the ruthless man nodded slightly.
Although it seemed cold, Yunhua didn't feel unhappy at all.
This aloof, taciturn, and ruthless person was the kind of person Yunhua was familiar with.
"The legend of Liu Shen is also rare, but the two are different—rare words." Yunhua thought to herself:
"Liu Shen is just using his own habits; he's not a talkative person by nature. After all, he's an old immortal king who has lived for an entire era."
The immortal kings of the Chaotic Ancient Era and earlier lived for at least half an era.
Time fades everything, making it hard to get enthusiastic again.
"Ruthless people are like that; they're rather aloof. This is definitely related to their past experiences. They fought against the world to prove their path, so their nature would naturally become aloof and even withdrawn..."
Anyone would be fired up if they faced mountains of corpses and seas of blood along the way.
There are no friends, only enemies.
"Wait, something's not right. Why am I comparing the two of them? How strange."
Yunhua quickly withdrew the idea of spreading it and stopped overthinking.
"Just returned?" the ruthless man asked.
“Yes.” Yunhua nodded. “Although the past was wonderful, this is still my hometown.”
"As soon as things were settled over there, I returned immediately."
As for the chaotic ancient era, it's all the same—the same nine heavens and ten earths, the same hometown, the same everything.
However, if the situation here were not so urgent and if his true form were not about to break through, Yunhua would definitely want to see Shi Hao return after attaining the Dao of Immortal Emperor.
Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time, and we didn't get to see that scene.
She wondered how heartbroken Shi Hao would be if he couldn't find her after she left; he would probably be missing her and searching for her forever.
The version of "The Desolate Emperor" is not for achieving the Dao, but only to wait for your return in the mortal world.
There's nothing I can do; that's just how charming I am. Yunhua's thoughts wandered again.
"Go out and see the world." For the first time ever, the ruthless man actually took the initiative to invite Yunhua.
“Uh…” Yunhua was taken aback. Just as she was about to refuse, she said that she had just returned from traveling all over the universe and that if he wanted to go to the universe, he could go by himself.
But suddenly a flash of inspiration struck Yunhua, like chaos exploding, like a singularity exploding.
His intuition told him that it would be inappropriate to refuse at this moment.
"Alright, I'd be more than happy to." Yunhua laughed, "It's been over 400,000 years since I last returned. I imagine the world has changed a lot. I'll have to trouble you, Great Emperor, to tell me all about it."
What the hell? Called witty! Yunhua and the others' way of addressing each other is quite confusing.
If Yunhua were to address a ruthless person, she would call him the Great Emperor, a habit that continued from their first meeting in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land.
When Ruthless Man communicates with Yun Hua, he generally doesn't use specific titles, but when he mentions Yun Hua to Wu Shi and the others, he still refers to him as the Heavenly Emperor.
As for Wu Shi and the others, they also called the Ruthless Empress, a title that carried a lot of respect.
However, Ruthless is clearly of the same generation as Yunhua, and considering other factors, they can only use this title.
Wu Shi and Ye Fan all address each other by their given names.
No one knows the ruthless person's name, and no one has ever asked them. In short, things are rather chaotic.
After receiving Yunhua's reply, the ruthless man nodded and took the lead in leaving the depths of the Void God Realm, with Yunhua following closely behind.
The familiar cosmos and starry sky appeared before my eyes once again, with distant stars twinkling.
"More than 400,000 years have passed, and the changes don't seem to be significant." Yunhua said calmly, stating something he already knew.
Perhaps this is a man's natural talent.
"However, the universe hasn't changed much, but people have changed quite a bit."
"There are many more cultivators at the pinnacle of humanity, the overall level of cultivators has greatly improved, and the golden age will last forever."
Although the universe of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths still cannot achieve immortality, even after the birth of several Immortal Kings, this remains the case.
After all, Ye Fan and the others firmly carried out Yun Hua's will, and even though the Immortal King blessed the world, they suppressed the changes in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths universe.
It's still that world that requires struggle. But there's a path to immortality.
Once cultivators in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths universe reach a certain level, they can choose to ascend to the Immortal Realm.
After all, while Yunhua wanted more powerful cultivators to emerge in this world's harsh environment, she would not completely extinguish the chance for immortality.
Everyone has the opportunity to make a choice.
Of course, this is on the premise that you have the power to control your own destiny.
So far, it seems to be quite effective; at least many Emperor-level combatants without the Heavenly Heart Mark have been born.
The superior environment for inheritance, coupled with the increasingly prosperous Taoist practices and abundant resources, has greatly reduced the difficulty of cultivation for people.
Quasi-Emperors and cultivators who achieved enlightenment through unconventional means were emerging in great numbers.
Many cultivators have taken an even further step in achieving enlightenment through alternative paths, and although they lack the Heavenly Heart Mark to merge with, they have still reached the pinnacle of humanity.
The Immortal Realm has already accumulated a huge amount.
Although the rule of the Dharma-ending Age is that one cannot attain enlightenment without merging with the Heavenly Heart Imprint, there are still a few Immortal Kings in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths universe.
Furthermore, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths universe already possesses the foundation to overcome the Dharma-ending Age. It is not the most intense period of the Dharma-ending Age, so it is not difficult to make some changes to these rules now.
The ruthless man nodded, agreeing with Yunhua's words, and his cold voice rang out.
"Wu Shi, Qing Di, and Ye Fan have all advanced to Immortal King. The opportunities you left behind will be very useful."
"It's good that it's useful." Yunhua nodded with a smile. He already knew these things, but that didn't stop him from hearing the ruthless man say them again.
Yunhua gently turned her head to look at the ruthless man, "I haven't congratulated you on also advancing to the Immortal King realm, cultivating the Immortal King Dao Fruit, and becoming eternally indestructible."
The Immortal King level powerhouse has already earned the title of eternal immortality. After all, as long as it doesn't happen during the era of the protagonist, the Immortal King's life force is very well guaranteed.
Chapter 1444 A Little Bit
If it's a Celestial King from the protagonist's formative years, then I can only apologize.
"Your cultivation levels are almost catching up to mine now," Yunhua said with a smile. "Perhaps I'll need your protection in the future."
"Sigh, I went to the past, but my cultivation only improved by a tiny bit." Yun Hua sighed, feigning a sigh.
"Human strength really does have its limits."
Immortal Kings and Quasi-Immortal Emperors do indeed appear very close, with only a major realm separating them, while Half-Step Immortal Emperors have only made a tiny, incremental improvement.
"I'm still a ways off from you." The ruthless man shook his head, "But if that day ever comes, I won't back down."
A ruthless person who says they will not retreat means they will not retreat, even if it means dying in battle.
Yunhua understood what the ruthless person meant, and immediately shook her head with a smile.
"If you should retreat, then retreat. As long as you have life, you can always make a comeback."
"Also, that day will never come. I will definitely protect everyone well."
Yunhua practically patted his chest in assurance. He's incredibly strong, okay?!
Ruthless people don't speak. One of the important reasons why she and Ye Fan and everyone else worked so hard to cultivate was so that one day they could stand shoulder to shoulder with Yun Hua and face the storms together.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons, not the only one. Everyone still has their own pursuits.
"Does everyone go to the Boundary Sea often lately?" Yunhua asked.
"Yes." The ruthless man nodded. "Dark forces are rampant, and everyone needs to be tempered."
Yunhua and Ruthless chatted back and forth, perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for over 400,000 years, Ruthless was a bit more talkative.
But they failed to notice one thing: they talked a lot, yet remained in the same spot, without moving an inch.
Universe: Didn't we agree to take a walk and see me?
What is this all about? What do you take me for?
This exchange with such a ruthless person fully proves one thing.
They just don't like to talk much, not that they can't talk.
In the end, they didn't get to explore the universe and went directly into the Realm of the Void Gods.
This place is where the essence of the entire universe is gathered, and all living beings live here.
The Void God Realm grew ever stronger. In the deepest part of the Void God Realm, only Yunhua could sense a very strong, surging aura of transcendence.
This is what Yunhua needs to advance to the Immortal Emperor realm.
The Realm of the Void Gods alters the fate of all living beings in the world, helping them transcend their limits, thus enabling everyone to become like a dragon.
Such a thing can be described as defying fate.
All beings change their destiny, and after transcending destiny, they leave behind a trace of ineffable transcendence in the realm of the gods, which in turn nourishes Yunhua.
With the power of all living beings to defy fate and transcend destiny, help Yunhua "transcend" and grasp the one that has escaped.
Even with over 400,000 years of accumulation, the transcendent energy accumulated in the illusory realm of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths universe is still a drop in the ocean for Yunhua.
But it doesn't matter, Yunhua still has the entire Boundary Sea, and even the Void God Realm of other heavens.
Perhaps the Void God Realms in other heavens are not as prosperous as the Boundary Sea, but if there are enough of them, that's enough.
The heavens above are vast and boundless. The Boundary Sea is only one of the heavens. There are other heavens, whose scale is no smaller than that of the Boundary Sea.
Of course, the other heavens are basically just background scenery.
