"The once eternal world and the power of immortality have all become legends."
Four hundred thousand years is not much in the Immortal Realm, because everyone lives a very long time.
Some things haven't been forgotten; it's just that the topics that were once so enthusiastically discussed have simply changed over the past 400,000 years.
In a world where immortality is impossible, four hundred thousand years can erase the vast majority of things.
"Yes, people are almost forgetting that immortals truly exist; only high-level cultivators are still searching for the Immortal Realm," Yunhua said.
"What I need you to do is related to this."
"Over the years, there have been constant wars, the world has been in turmoil, and gaps have appeared between the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and the Immortal Realm."
"None of these gaps can truly lead into the Immortal Realm; they all end up blocked halfway through."
"I need you to walk the earth and find those cracks and fissures."
“Locate each spatial node and try to open up a path to the Immortal Realm, leaving behind paths to immortality in the process.”
"In this process, you can only use humane methods; never try to open up dozens of paths to immortality directly."
"Just leave one path that's passable, and then you can use that path to return to the Immortal Realm."
Shi Hao was puzzled by Yun Hua's request. "What's the point of doing something like this?"
"It feels like they're just idle and have nothing better to do than eat a lot."
Yunhua raised her hand, threatening Shi Hao, "Are you going to do it or not?"
"Do it, do it, do it," Shi Hao muttered. "All you ever think about is threatening me with force. It's not democratic at all."
"He'll get struck by lightning sooner or later."
"I can hear you!"
Shi Hao smiled again and asked curiously, "But what's the point of doing all this?"
"It feels pointless to open up some impassable paths to immortality, while creating a passable one."
"Especially when I only use human power, even if there is a path to immortality that can be taken, it will definitely be full of restrictions, and it will not be easy for people to become immortal."
"Furthermore, the laws of the Immortal Realm will automatically repair the cracks and set up a law barrier to isolate it from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."
"After countless ages, the path to immortality that I opened will probably have healed itself long ago."
Shi Hao is right. Human power cannot last forever. Even if Shi Hao breaks through spatial nodes now and reinforces each one, it would be good if he could leave behind one or two paths to immortality after countless ages.
Furthermore, the laws of the Immortal Realm will automatically evolve to heal the cracks, and for those that cannot be healed, a law barrier will be set up to prevent them from getting involved with the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Although the Dharma-ending Age is a stage in the evolution of the universe, no universe truly wants to be trapped in it...
"The Dharma-ending Age is already hopeless, so we must leave hope for all beings, and for those who are truly amazing."
Yunhua whispered, "Isn't that so?"
"If there were no legends of the Immortal Realm, and no hope of becoming an immortal, how many outstanding individuals would change their minds and stop pursuing the path to immortality?"
"A world in utter despair cannot give birth to the most brilliant flowers."
“That’s true.” Shi Hao nodded. “If there is always hope that the flame can be preserved, perhaps in the future, immortals of the mortal world can be born.”
In this degenerate age, for those who are truly remarkable, the fear is not of not achieving immortality, but of having no hope and no way forward.
"So, do you understand?"
"I understand." Shi Hao nodded, but then immediately realized something else.
"Can't you do this? You should be able to do it faster than me, right?"
"Have you ever seen a Quasi-Immortal Emperor repairing roads?" Yun Hua said matter-of-factly.
"..." Shi Hao was speechless. He couldn't refute Yun Hua's words.
He had indeed never seen a Quasi-Immortal Emperor repair roads...
"Remember, you can leave some traces as you walk through this world," Yunhua reminded her again.
"For example, refining a tower of immortal artifact level or something like that."
"I have a feeling you have another purpose in asking me to do this," Shi Hao said suspiciously.
Leaving traces is one thing, but specifying what kind of traces to leave is really strange.
"I need some things to develop along the original trajectory, not exactly the same, but at least eight or nine out of ten similarities," Yunhua said.
"History cannot be drastically altered, otherwise I fear a major upheaval will occur, an upheaval that even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor could not withstand."
Shi Hao's face lit up with understanding; now he understood.
"Even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor can't withstand it? I thought that breaking through to the King level and becoming an Emperor meant invincibility and omnipotence. How pathetic."
Yunhua wants to suppress Shi Hao again.
Yunhua first took Shi Hao back to the Immortal Realm so that he could meet with the people of Stone Village and reunite with them.
Yunhua wasn't in a hurry to arrange things for Shi Hao; a family reunion was more important.
Chapter 1412 Father and Son Meet
Yunhua isn't exactly a capitalist, so he wouldn't exploit Shi Hao excessively.
After spending some time with his family, Shi Hao returned to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and began to do the things Yun Hua had assigned him.
In the blink of an eye, he discovered many spatial rifts, but not every spatial rift pointed to the Immortal Realm; there were also many broken worlds.
It is evident that this realm has not been peaceful for hundreds of thousands of years, with countless battles fought.
Quite by chance, Shi Hao found a small tower in a dilapidated world. This was the first floor of the tower.
When you enter the Primal Gate, the small tower has six stories, with three more stories remaining outside.
Two of the layers are in the Fallen Immortal Ridge, which is in the hands of the Golden-haired Hou. The one Shi Hao has found now is the last layer.
After finding the tower, Shi Hao remembered what Yun Hua had said, so he used the small tower as a model to forge a celestial artifact-level celestial tower.
Shi Hao did not melt down this layer of the small tower, but preserved it, intending to give it to the small tower later.
Shi Hao still had the materials to forge a celestial artifact.
The world remembered Shi Hao again, knowing that he was a "prehistoric" Heavenly Emperor, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.
Shi Hao also opened up many paths to immortality, but without exception, they were all blocked. He also left behind many inscriptions to warn those who came after him.
The final path to immortality was perfect in terms of timing, location, and people. Shi Hao opened it up, embarked on this path, and suppressed those who followed behind them with malicious intentions.
Ultimately, Shi Hao entered the Immortal Realm through this immortal path. The story of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor's ascension to immortality has been passed down through the ages.
The Immortal Kings of the Immortal Realm, who had been eagerly awaiting Yunhua's return, finally saw him arrive. Apart from Ao Sheng, all the waking Immortal Kings of the Immortal Realm went to the Cloud Universe.
Yunhua didn't hide anything and clearly told them that she had made a breakthrough.
He was the one who annihilated all the dark kings near the Immortal Realm.
The kings of the Immortal Realm were naturally shocked, but they also believed Yunhua's words and did not think that Yunhua would lie to them.
Because Yunhua is the only possibility.
Rather than believing that a certain Immortal King in the Immortal Realm had broken through to the King Realm, they preferred to think it was Yun Hua.
Even if other Celestial Kings are stronger than them, they aren't much stronger.
If you say that they broke through, they don't believe it and can't accept it.
Seeing the hidden expectation in the eyes of the kings of the Immortal Realm, Yun Hua smiled. How could she not know what these people were thinking?
"I will go ahead and explain the methods of the Immortal Emperor. All fellow Daoists are welcome to listen," Yunhua said.
"I will inform all fellow practitioners when I give the sermon."
Yunhua was not stingy with sharing his insights on the Great Dao; once he spoke them, he did.
Can telling this make all the kings of the Immortal Realm become quasi-Immortal Emperors?
Obviously not. There is no hope of taking this step; even the Celestial Emperor's sermon has no chance.
Those who have the potential to take this step, as long as they continue to cultivate, may see the light at the end of the tunnel even without guidance from others.
Well, it's only a possibility. The kings of the Immortal Realm were naturally overjoyed and thanked Emperor Yuntian for his noble character.
He is now the true Emperor of Clouds.
The princes then wisely left without further disturbing Yunhua.
Not long after, Shi Hao entered the Immortal Realm from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths via the Path to Immortality.
Everyone in Shicun gathered together; none of the people who had been with Yunhua in Shicun during that time were absent.
No, there's one more, that's Shi Hao's son.
That's right, Shi Hao also has his own child now, although he only has one, but at least he has an heir.
Yunhua was very disappointed, as she had already gone into seclusion when Shi Hao's child was born.
Now, so much time has passed, the children have all grown up, and I've missed out on a human cub.
"Child, come here." Yunxi waved to a young man not far away.
The young man bore a striking resemblance to Shi Hao and possessed an exceptional air about him.
Shi Hao's first child was with Yun Xi. Perhaps it was destined from the beginning.
Shi Hao had several Daoist partners, but only with Yun Xi has he conceived a child.
Shi Hao's child walked over and respectfully said, "Grandpa Yun."
Yunhua sighed a little, realizing that in the blink of an eye, he had become a grandfather.
“Yes, he looks a lot like your father.” Yunhua nodded.
"Not only do they look alike, but their imposing manner is exactly the same," Shi Hao interjected from the side.
"What's the child's name?" Yunhua asked.
"Shi Fan," Yun Xi said gently, "We all hope that Fan'er can be safe and happy, even if he is a little ordinary, it's fine."
Upon hearing this name, a strange look flashed across Yunhua's eyes. Shi Fan…
He would have to hint to Ye Fan later that Ye Fan should name his son Ye Hao.
The name carries the meaning of the wish that my son will shine as brightly as the eternal sun.
It has to be a draw.
"A very good name, a very good child." Yunhua nodded in approval.
Shi Fan was no ordinary man; he possessed boundless divine power, as Yun Hua could see.
This child's future is undoubtedly bright, and with his father's bloodline, he is destined to roam the heavens.
Even if Shi Fan was Shi Hao's child before he became an Immortal Emperor, he would still enjoy great blessings when Shi Hao became an Immortal Emperor.
The bloodline of the Immortal Emperor is not bound by time.
"Cultivate with me for a while from now on," Yunhua said, intending to personally guide Shi Fan in his cultivation.
Although I missed the cub stage, he is still Shi Hao's child, and I still have to fulfill my responsibility.
Yunxi seemed very happy, and Shi Fan also thanked Yunhua earnestly.
Shi Fan's impression of Yunhua was built up through people's descriptions and various legends about the Cloud Emperor.
The one who raised his father, the one who guided his father, the creator of the prosperity of Stone Village, the hero who saved the heavens and the earth, the strongman who intimidated foreign enemies, the emperor among non-emperors, the supreme powerhouse who challenged the emperor realm.
Now he has emerged from seclusion and is already an emperor.
This grandfather is shrouded in mystery, inspiring both curiosity and awe.
This was his first time meeting Yunhua, and he was a little reserved.
Upon hearing Yunhua's words, Shi Hao sighed, thinking to himself that his child might be led astray and wouldn't be able to become an elegant person like himself.
However, Shi Hao wasn't too worried, since Shi Fan was now an adult with his own values and could withstand the impact of external ideas.
"From now on, follow your Grandpa Yun and learn cultivation techniques properly." Shi Hao instructed his son, emphasizing the words "cultivation techniques."
Don't learn anything else!
