Yunhua shook his head and said, "Using a corpse to prove one's Dao is not this path; it's only a similar one. But ultimately, using a corpse to prove one's Dao still involves giving birth to a primordial spirit from a dead body."
"The pollution of dark matter, on the other hand, is the birth of a primordial spirit in a living body. These two are completely different. In fact, those who use corpses to prove their Dao also initially referred to the characteristics of dark matter, which is why they embarked on this path."
Yunhua remembered that the origin of the Burial Warriors was also dark matter, and they also had ancient artifacts of origin. They and the other world could be considered to have the same origin.
"Moreover, the pollution of dark matter doesn't just affect the primordial spirit; it also impacts the physical body. If you are polluted, you might no longer be human; it can transform you into a monster. Several beings could even fuse under the power of dark matter, becoming a monster that is neither human nor ghost..."
Yunhua gave a brief description of some of the effects and powers of dark matter, which immediately sent chills down the spines of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, the Azure Emperor, and the others.
"Dark matter...is it really that terrifying?" The Azure Emperor still couldn't quite believe it.
Even the Qilin Emperor and his companions found it hard to believe that such a bizarre thing existed in the world.
Yunhua said, "Back in the ancient times of the Immortal Era and the Chaotic Era, there was a great world that was polluted by dark matter. Everyone in that world mutated, and it was called the 'Otherworld.' Back then, the Otherworld fought against the Immortal Realm all by itself, and our world was also ravaged by the Otherworld."
"Is there some kind of grudge?" The Great Accomplishment Holy Body was also taken aback, his brows furrowing.
Yunhua nodded and continued, "That's right, there is a grudge, but that realm was flattened by the Desolate Heaven Emperor during the Chaotic Ancient War. As for its current state, it's hard to say."
"In fact, during the Chaotic Ancient War, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor had almost completely eliminated all the dark matter, thoroughly purifying it. But unfortunately, during the time the Desolate Heavenly Emperor was away, the darkness resurfaced." Yun Hua shook his head and sighed.
"The strange world underwent such changes because of the pollution of dark matter. This is only the dark matter from the corpse of a Celestial King, yet it has already destroyed an entire world. Emperor and Wushi probably have a good understanding of the power of dark matter."
"Indeed troublesome. In the past, when I was studying the immortal corpse of Mount Tai, the dark matter took advantage of my weakness. I resisted for two million years and still couldn't get rid of it. It was only with the intervention of the Heavenly Emperor that I was freed." The Emperor was also quite angry when he thought of the dark matter. If it weren't for the dark matter, he probably would have become an immortal long ago.
"That substance is too bizarre. It directly creates a dark primordial spirit within the body, which is then silently eroded." The Great Emperor Wushi was almost replaced by the dark primordial spirit. If it weren't for the sudden exertion of the Wushi Bell, which had fused with the Immortal Bell, his fate would probably not have been much better than that of the Emperor.
"This is the method I developed to deal with dark matter. Generally speaking, pollution at the True Immortal level can be purified in this way. But for dark matter at the higher level of Immortal King, it can only be gradually worn away over a long period of time, just like I have done," Yunhua explained to them. "Moreover, you cannot purify dark matter at the Immortal King level; at least an Immortal King would be needed to do so."
For a moment, whether it was the Great Emperor Wushi, the Azure Emperor, the Five Supreme Emperors of Qilin, or the Ruthless Great Emperor, they all stared at the millstone diagram in mid-air, carefully pondering and comprehending it.
Dark matter is such a mysterious thing; it would be good to have even a little bit of a way to deal with it.
"Profound, too profound!" Whether it was the Qilin Emperor or the Great Emperor Wushi, they couldn't help but have this thought when they looked at the Dao diagram in mid-air.
The secret technique that Yunhua had painstakingly researched was mysterious and unpredictable to these peak experts. Even the Ruthless Great Emperor, who was the most powerful among them, was mesmerized, his eyes flashing with nine-colored immortal light from time to time.
Time passed slowly, and all of them remained motionless, silently comprehending and completely absorbed in their work. But without a doubt, the Empress comprehended the fastest among them, and in just a moment, she had completely grasped all the mysteries.
She withdrew her gaze, closed her eyes, and stopped looking at the Dao diagram. Instead, she began to silently evolve the traces of the Great Dao in her heart.
Meanwhile, the Azure Emperor and the Great Emperor Wushi also learned very quickly. Soon, a dazzling celestial light appeared around them, like a millstone spinning.
A moment later, the divine light dissipated, and Yunhua also retrieved the divine painting.
At this moment, these emperors also reopened their eyes.
"Heavenly Emperor, how long until we face the dark matter?" asked the Great Emperor Wushi.
Yunhua shook his head and said, "I don't know. I estimate it might be hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. After all, the sword strike from the Desolate Emperor is still protecting us. Although the Great Sacrifice of the Heavens is still a few million years away, various minor sacrifices are constantly emerging."
Yunhua's voice was filled with uncertainty; in fact, he himself didn't know whether his appearance would bring about any butterfly effect.
"Hundreds of thousands, even millions of years... time is running out!" The Azure Emperor sighed.
"So you all should hurry up and cultivate. If the Dark Immortal King launches a full-scale invasion within the next few hundred thousand years, I alone may not be able to withstand it," Yunhua continued.
"Haha, Heavenly Emperor, I didn't expect even you to be so insecure!?" The Emperor suddenly laughed.
"I've always been confident that even if darkness were to descend now, I could withstand it myself, but it's a pity for all living beings!" Yun Hua's gaze swept across the universe, and she sighed softly.
Even if a Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperor or even a true Dark Immortal Emperor were to descend now, Yun Hua would be confident of survival, because at worst he could simply use the Gate of the Other Shore to travel through time and live in a different world.
But Yunhua didn't want to do that. He had friends and ties in this world, how could he just leave?
If Yunhua were alone in the face of dark matter, he could leave or fight as he pleased, with the initiative entirely in his own hands.
“Time is indeed running out; I’m only in my fifth transformation,” Wu Shi said after a moment of contemplation.
"Within 50,000 years, I can become an immortal in the mortal world, which should be able to help you." The Empress is currently undergoing her seventh transformation, which is halfway complete. The method for the eighth transformation can be the universal divine embryo nirvana method given by Yunhua, and the ninth transformation can be carried out within tens of thousands of years.
"Having lived for over a hundred thousand years, I estimate I can reach the pinnacle of immortality, and becoming an Immortal King is not out of the question." The Emperor Venerable, now a mortal immortal, is quite confident in becoming an Immortal King.
"I am walking the path of the Immortal Realm, and I currently possess the strength of a fifth incarnation. If I live out one lifetime within tens of thousands of years and completely construct the world, I will have the strength of an eighth incarnation." Although the Azure Emperor is the only Great Emperor in the post-ancient era, and his time has been short, he is on the right path and is quite confident.
"The Undying Emperor also possesses the strength of a Mortal Immortal. Now that I have converted him, he is considered one of our people," Yunhua added. Currently, the Undying Emperor is recovering in his inner world, so that when he reappears in the future, he will be spared from being attacked and killed.
The five ancient kings of Qilin looked at each other in bewilderment. They had only returned to their peak, and it would still be troublesome for them to live another life. Although they also wanted to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world, their talents did not allow it, and they could only try to reach the Heavenly Emperor level and become true immortals.
Chapter 257 Ye Fan's Birth
Although the two realms were merged to create a vast and boundless land in the starry sky, many life-bearing planets in the starry sky were not merged into it and remained their original spherical planets.
In recent years, the fusion of the two eras has brought about a perfect harmony of heaven and earth, and it seems that the abundant source of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths has already ushered in a golden age ahead of schedule.
Unlike previous golden ages, although this is the most prosperous golden age predicted by the emperors, now that the world has been revived, this golden age, which far surpasses the past, will have no end unless the world's origin is drained once again.
The Primordial Ancient Star is a planet far removed from the Ten Realms. Yunhua did not actively interfere in any matters concerning the Primordial Ancient Star, whether it was the Void God Realm covering the land or the Emperor becoming an immortal in the Immortal Realm.
Now, on the ancient primordial star, because the Emperor has completed his transformation and taken away the Cauldron of All Things, the pattern of ten thousand dragons drawing water back has changed, and the myriad paths of heaven and earth on the ancient primordial star are also reviving.
Until recent years, due to the fusion of the two realms, the ancient star of the primordial world has now completely awakened all the myriad paths and is full of the essence of heaven and earth. The sealed mountain and sea realm of the ancient star of the primordial world has also been liberated, and its area has expanded by more than several thousand times.
Those small countries were ecstatic. The revival of spiritual energy in modern times was already a great opportunity, and many countries had achieved extraordinary feats, far surpassing some technologically advanced nations and becoming true world powers.
Now that the Earth has expanded thousands of times, although it faces a situation of vast land and sparse population and rampant monsters, almost all countries are happy about it. The abundance of resources has also enabled these countries to cultivate a lot of dragon-transformation cultivators.
However, Earthlings did not give up on technological progress. In fact, they combined the two, learned from the Eternal Star Domain, and forged their own path of cultivation technology.
At this time, Yunhua returned to Mount Tai on the ancient star of the primordial world. Mount Tai is now tens of thousands of feet high, and the Jianmu tree has been exposed to the world due to the expansion of the world.
This made many Earthlings who longed for the extraordinary realize that Earth actually had such a profound heritage. It was the Jianmu tree planted by the Heavenly Emperor in the past, which now has lush branches and leaves covering the entire area of Mount Tai. The trees growing on Mount Tai are several times taller than the tens of thousands of meters of Mount Tai.
Today, the roots of many Jianmu trees have even formed the unique foothills of Mount Tai, making the scenery of Mount Tai seem like a fairyland, and turning it into a national treasure-level area in China, with countless spiritual materials and precious medicines.
On Mount Tai, the Ziyun Temple, which has existed for thousands of years, is also known as the oldest and most powerful force in the region. If you are lucky, you may even be able to meet Zhuang Zhou and Peng Zu, two famous figures from thousands of years ago.
Peng Zu and Zhuang Zhou have now attained enlightenment in unconventional ways and reside in caves carved out on the Jianmu tree. The Ziyun Temple now boasts countless disciples and is truly the number one power on Earth and even in the universe, after all, it is the lineage of the Heavenly Emperor.
Even the 800-year-old Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain had to show the respect due to a disciple when he met the current abbot of Ziyun Temple, because this abbot was a figure from hundreds of years ago.
Yunhua is currently in Jianmu Cave, receiving the worship of thousands of disciples and followers, whom he can beat at will. Yunhua's purpose in coming here is to witness the dark history of the future Emperor Ye, and to record it all, which would be enough to bring him to his death.
At that time, without extorting some Immortal Emperor artifacts, Yunhua will definitely spread the word about him throughout the myriad realms, including the heavens above, so that even the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who has countless dark histories, can see what he's made of.
What is the difference between barrenness and leaf, and leaf and barrenness? In terms of dark history, Yunhua wants them to be evenly matched, to the point that even if the past and future are reflected in the future, it cannot be changed.
Ye Fan is now six years old. For the past three years, Yun Hua has been Ye Fan's kindergarten teacher. His embarrassing history from birth to age six has been recorded by Yun Hua in a specially crafted imperial weapon mobile phone.
Whether it was the first time he wet his pants, the first time he was beaten to tears by a girl, the first time he was beaten for lying, or the first time he was beaten for not speaking properly, Yunhua recorded them all. He believed that many years later, Emperor Ye would thank him.
Ye Fan is twelve years old. For the past six years, Yun Hua has been Ye Fan's homeroom teacher. He adheres to strict education, which makes Ye Fan and other little kids suffer a lot. When they complain to their parents, they are praised for teaching well.
Six years later, Ye Fan graduated from elementary school, and a familiar scene unfolded.
Ye Fan bid a reluctant farewell to his teacher, with whom he had spent nine years.
Twelve-year-old Ye Fan's eyes welled up with tears as he faced the impending separation.
"Goodbye, Teacher Yun!" Ye Fan waved repeatedly.
The difference between kindergarten and primary school isn't that big, which is why Teacher Yun was able to transfer here. However, there are some differences between junior high and primary school.
This separation will likely last a long time. Ye Fan's cultivation talent is too good; he is a peerless holy body. However, the suppression of holy bodies by the world remains unchanged. According to the description of the Great Accomplishment Holy Body, a certain brainless Heavenly Emperor put Ye Fan in a predicament of being unable to cultivate in order to temper a certain holy body. This made Ye Fan somewhat dislike that holy body.
"I must give that Holy Body a good beating in the future, and I'll also spank the Heavenly Emperor's backside when I get the chance." Ye Fan was filled with mixed feelings, thinking that he had suffered too much, and he would definitely avenge this when he grew up.
Teacher Yun smiled and told Ye Fan to go back quickly, but Ye Fan couldn't understand her smile.
However, Ye Fan still rushed home, not only because he missed his parents, but also for another important reason.
He is twelve years old, which meets the age requirement for entering the Realm of the Gods!
For ordinary people without cultivation, the minimum age to enter the Void God Realm is twelve.
After returning home, Ye Fan entered the Realm of the Void Gods under the care of his parents.
"Wa-ku-wa-ku!"
The moment Ye Fan entered, he exclaimed in amazement; it was so huge and so magnificent.
In terms of length, the street was only filled with countless living beings and heads. In terms of width, Ye Fan felt it was larger than his own neighborhood, and it would take quite a while to walk from one side to the other.
Such streets are the most common and ordinary in the divine city.
Fortunately, when traveling in the Void God Realm, everyone can use the power of the Void God Realm to travel to the ends of the earth in one step. Otherwise, it would be really unpleasant to think about for a mortal like Ye Fan to travel in the Void God Realm.
"As expected of the Divine City of the Void God Realm!" Ye Fan exclaimed excitedly. "The Heavenly Emperor who created all of this is truly great!"
Upon hearing Ye Fan's words, a teacher who wished to remain anonymous smiled with satisfaction.
It wasn't for nothing that I've been so good to you for the past nine years, always thinking about how to help you endure more trials and tribulations and go further in the future.
Ye Fan, eyes wide open and full of curiosity, wandered around this corner of the Divine City in the Void God Realm. Everything he saw was so novel.
Treasures from all corners of the universe and from strange worlds have appeared here, treasures that Ye Fan has never seen before.
There were also some biological species that made Ye Fan exclaim, "Wow!"
It was an extremely strange creature in Ye Fan's eyes—a creature with a pig's head, a dog's body, frog's legs, and a cow's tail!
Furthermore, their true form is actually a sacred mountain, a wondrous race that is spiritually connected to the mountains!
"So this world is so big," Ye Fan exclaimed. He had only heard about the legends of the Void God Realm before, but now that he had come here himself, he had a real understanding of it.
"Sigh, this Void God Realm is great in every way, except for one drawback."
Suddenly, someone next to Ye Fan sighed. Ye Fan was a little surprised and glanced at the person.
That was a young man, who looked to be a few years older than Ye Fan.
"Oh? I wonder, friend, is there anything wrong with the Void God Realm?" Ye Fan asked casually.
In Ye Fan's eyes, who had just entered the Realm of the Void Gods, these scenes, combined with the legends he had heard before, were all quite impressive.
This virtual god realm is simply a celestial realm, a paradise!
"Alas," the young man sighed, "My family has existed since shortly after the emergence of the Void God Realm, and has been passed down to this day."
The Tragic Years of Emperor Ye Tian (258th)
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a deep sense of respect. This family had a history of at least several thousand years. In such an era, to be able to survive for so long, there must be no shortage of sages and wise men among them.
"But even after more than 100,000 years, the Void God Realm still cannot run naked!"
At this point, the young man became somewhat angry; this was disrespectful to the loyal fans of the Virtual God Realm!
The young man fumbled around his waistband for a few moments, then walked away dejectedly, his back view utterly forlorn.
Ye Fan experienced a considerable shock, but he was quickly drawn to the Flowery Void God Realm.
After all, he was just a happy elementary school graduate.
A short while later, Ye Fan withdrew from the Void God Realm, his face still showing a hint of reminiscence.
"What a pity," Ye Fan said indignantly. "What's with this anti-addiction system? Do they think I'm going to get addicted? Ridiculous!"
Taking Earth as an example, the rules of the Virtual God Realm stipulate that anyone who is underage but over sixteen years old can only log in to the Virtual God Realm for two hours a day.
Those aged 12 to 16 can only log in for one hour per day.
Furthermore, you cannot log in between 8 PM and 8 AM the next day.
The above rules apply to mortals. On some planets and among some races, the age of adulthood varies, and in such cases, the rules of each race will apply.
Ye Fan was just a twelve-year-old junior high school student who could only log in for one hour a day.
The anti-addiction mechanism is designed to stop people like him!
From that day on, Ye Fan lingered in the Void God Realm every day, staying for a full hour before being forcibly kicked out.
He even tried to use his parents' accounts to log into the virtual god realm and play around with it at will.
Unfortunately, the Realm of the Void Gods has developed for thousands of years, longer than the lifespan of most saints, so how could it be exploited?
Happy times always pass too quickly. Ye Fan's summer vacation is over, and he has to go back to school.
Ye Fan is now tall and upright, much taller than his peers. Although he is not particularly handsome, he still attracts the attention of many girls when he enters the school.
Ye Fan, who was about to enter his second year of middle school, flicked his bangs and walked towards his classroom, leaving behind a proud and aloof figure.
At this moment, Ye Fan was in high spirits. Although he could not cultivate, he had always been a good student since he was a child. After junior high school, he would definitely be even more outstanding.
Ye Fan, who had just randomly found a seat in the classroom to wait, was met with someone who would make his jaw drop.
