Void Emperor looked at Ye Fan with surprise and doubt; he truly found it difficult to connect this young man with the Heavenly Emperor.
He couldn't help but look at Li Ping again. In his opinion, it would be more believable to say Li Ping was the next Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court.
"The Heavenly Emperor's cultivation is profound, allowing him to travel freely through the river of time and know all future changes!"
Li Ping's expression was calm, as if he were stating a very ordinary matter, but Void Emperor clearly didn't think so.
Traveling freely through the river of time? Knowing all future changes?
He couldn't do it, and neither could other ancient emperors and great emperors!
He even believed that the legendary immortals couldn't do it!
What kind of powerful being could travel freely through the river of time?
It was simply unimaginable!
It made sense, though. To be able to bring the dead back to life, could an ordinary person achieve such a feat?
Unknowingly, his evaluation of the Heavenly Court had risen another level!
The tree desired stillness, but the wind would not cease. The tranquility of Divine City did not last long.
Too many people did not want Divine King Jiang Taixu to continue living, and many also did not want the Sacred Body to successfully break through.
"Dong!"
The bell rang loudly, its chime echoing through heaven and earth. The Jiang family's underground palace trembled as a peerless expert made their move.
Without any hesitation, the Jiang family immediately brought out the Supreme Emperor Armament, Hengyu Furnace. Its supreme imperial might permeated heaven and earth.
From afar, scarlet radiance surged into the sky, and phoenix cries shook the heavens, as if a divine phoenix was being born from fire, soaring through the world.
Void Emperor's eyes were filled with reminiscence. He was naturally no stranger to Hengyu the Great's Supreme Emperor Armament.
"Weng! Weng! Weng!"
The void trembled again, and heaven and earth were pierced through. A vast pressure surged forth.
Supreme imperial might! To counter the Hengyu Furnace, someone had also brought out a Supreme Emperor Armament.
"This Supreme Emperor Armament is quite extraordinary!" Void Emperor said softly.
For him to say such a thing undoubtedly meant that the Supreme Emperor Armament countering the Hengyu Furnace was very unusual.
"The Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, this is the Supreme Emperor Armament of the Yaoguang Holy Land, forged by the Ruthless Emperor!" Li Ping said.
He didn't need to hide much from Void Emperor, as Void Emperor was qualified to know.
Void Emperor's heart stirred slightly. He had heard Li Ping mention the Yaoguang Holy Land before, but the Yaoguang Holy Land had never produced a great emperor.
It was said that the twenty-eight sages of the Yaoguang Holy Land, along with countless Holy Lords and Grand Elders, had spent fifty thousand years forging the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron.
This was simply a joke. Without a supreme great emperor, how could there be a Supreme Emperor Armament!
But in Li Ping's words, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron was actually forged by the Ruthless Emperor herself.
Did this mean that the Ruthless Emperor had always existed in the world and certainly did not die after four lives?
Li Ping could know such a secret because he was a member of the Heavenly Court?
In this light, the Heavenly Court was not only incredibly terrifying but also possessed profound knowledge of the world's secrets.
With two Supreme Emperor Armaments confronting each other, the Jiang family lost their support, and peerless experts appeared one after another, intending to kill Divine King Jiang Taixu.
The Jiang family was in a precarious situation, but neither Li Ping nor Void Emperor showed any intention of intervening.
"Senior, what do you think of the Jiang family's Divine King?" Li Ping asked.
The reason he didn't act was because he knew Divine King Jiang Taixu was undergoing a transformation, and those who were making a move were essentially just fodder.
Void Emperor must have also seen this and didn't want Divine King Jiang Taixu to miss the opportunity for tempering, which was why he hadn't acted.
"Hengyu the Great has such a descendant, it's quite good!" Void Emperor said.
This was already a very high evaluation. In the eyes of great emperors, the difference in cultivation level was not that significant.
To cultivate to this extent in an era of silence, to endure for four thousand years without dying, and even show signs of living a second life.
Such a white-robed Divine King Jiang Taixu truly deserved Void Emperor's remark of "quite good."
Just as Divine King Jiang Taixu was gradually awakening and numerous experts were storming the Jiang family's underground palace, Ye Fan was also undergoing his tribulation.
Ye Fan's heavenly tribulation was terrifying. Many people, just watching from afar, felt their hearts tremble with fear.
Ye Fan's first heavenly tribulation was nine bolts of heavenly lightning, and the second was nine surges of purple sea lightning.
The third heavenly tribulation involved lightning transforming into nine illusory figures, interwoven with electric light, like nine divine spirits.
The fourth heavenly tribulation consisted of nine great bolts of lightning, each containing a wisp of chaos energy flowing within it – these were chaos lightning.
Each layer of heavenly tribulation was immensely terrifying, but Ye Fan endured them all, even transforming and being reborn within the tribulation.
After passing through the four layers of heavenly tribulation, Ye Fan had successfully broken through to the Four Extremes Realm. This should have been a world-shattering event.
But at this moment, no one was paying attention to Ye Fan. Almost all attention was focused on Divine King Jiang Taixu.
Thirteen Holy Lords joined forces, along with some mysterious experts, and had now stormed into the Jiang family's underground palace.
In everyone's eyes, the situation had become extremely unfavorable, and it seemed likely that the Divine King Jiang Taixu would meet a grim fate this time.
Just then, the Divine King Jiang Taixu suddenly stood up, positioning himself within the Dragon Transformation Pool. The Divine King Jiang Taixu had been resurrected.
The Divine King's resurrection did not deter the many powerful experts; instead, it strengthened their resolve to kill him.
They all believed that the Divine King's revival was only temporary and that his condition was poor. If they didn't kill him now, when would they?
"It's here!" the Void Emperor looked up at the sky and uttered two words softly.
The next moment, the void trembled, and the sky above seemed on the verge of collapsing, sending shivers of fear down everyone's spines.
Under the cover of night, innate patterns emerged, weaving together high in the sky to form a Dao diagram that slowly descended.
The Dao diagram was profoundly mysterious, like the very form of the Great Dao, making people gasp for breath. The void shook, almost collapsing.
Even the powerful experts preparing to kill the Divine King Jiang Taixu were startled and turned their attention to the Dao diagram.
"Innate Dao Diagram! This is a curse that the Sacred Body cannot break because it is not recognized by heaven and earth!" Li Ping said.
The Innate Dao Diagram was not a heavenly tribulation, but it was more than a hundred times more terrifying than any heavenly tribulation!
The Innate Dao Diagram was composed of the innate patterns of heaven and earth, representing the will of the Great Dao, signifying that heaven and earth did not recognize the Sacred Body.
For this very reason, no Sacred Body had ever been able to cultivate to the Four Extremes Realm in the Post-Ancient Era.
This was a curse and a shackle, the restriction imposed by heaven and earth upon the Sacred Body!
How could human strength defy heaven?
"What a pity! The Sacred Body ultimately cannot defy heaven; this is the limitation of heaven and earth!"
"The Sacred Body is indeed monstrous, possessing unparalleled potential, but in the end, it will all be for naught!"
"The path of the Sacred Body is severed, and it is no longer a threat. Even the Divine King is destined to fall!"
No one believed Ye Fan still had hope. Facing the limitations of heaven and earth, no one could defy fate and change their destiny.
The Innate Dao Diagram descended slowly, causing the void to collapse, crushing everything in its path!
"So what if heaven and earth do not recognize it? The path of the Sacred Body, I will continue it!" the Void Emperor declared.
With a wave of his hand, a stream of patterns surged forth, exuding the aura of the Great Dao, soaring against the heavens and charging towards the sky to meet the Innate Dao Diagram.
To the astonishment of countless onlookers, the Innate Dao Diagram trembled and could not descend any further!
