A friendly reminder: if you have any questions or suggestions, you can ask Dong Ge on his Weibo; he reads all of them.

All the Supremes changed color, their gazes fixed on little Nannan. They all recognized her extraordinary nature—this was the Dao Fruit of a Supreme Emperor!

“Hmph!” someone snorted coldly, pressing forward.

Several Supremes had already shattered this realm, and a number of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals had fallen near them. Now, the four were merciless, reaching out to seize them.

They were establishing their might. Even after seeing little Nannan and with Ye Fan standing in front, they still attacked.

“Pfft!”

Blood light exploded, and lives cried out in agony.

In front of Ye Fan, they brutally crushed hundreds of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals. Blood spurted high, and their blood-stained bone fragments turned to ash, a truly horrific sight.

Ye Fan couldn't save these individuals; they were too far away, too close to the Supremes. He watched helplessly as their souls scattered, his eyes blazing with killing intent as he clenched his fists.

Although the main force was protected by Ye Fan inside the cauldron, such a tragedy still occurred. The brutal deaths of hundreds of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals ignited a raging fire in his heart.

“You are all bad people!” Little Nannan pointed a delicate finger forward. Though her big eyes blinked rapidly, she looked very angry and sad.

To her, those Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were like elder brothers, very familiar. Their sudden deaths infuriated the little one.

“Nannan doesn't need to fight,” Ye Fan said, gently stroking her head. He then brought her into the Cauldron of Immortality. While the little girl was powerful, facing so many sublimated Supremes could be dangerous for her.

Ye Fan vanished with everyone, choosing not to engage them in a fierce battle.

“Where do you think you're going?!”

The four Supremes roared, chasing downwards. They used all their power, locking onto a trace of Ye Fan's imprint, intending to kill him.

Thus, they crossed vast star seas, entering countless galaxies and causing immense destruction. Finally, Ye Fan stopped and said to the Cauldron of Immortality, “Go!”

He transmitted a divine thought, giving it a set of coordinates, instructing it to seal everyone within one of its other chaotic realms to lie dormant.

He, however, stopped, blocking the four Supremes and cutting off their path forward.

“Hmm, it's good that you stopped. Come with us to the Immortal Road. Otherwise, if we chase that cauldron now, it won't be able to escape.”

“What more is there to say? Kill them all! Force those people onto the Immortal Road, and let him comprehend with blood!” The Myriad Dragon Emperor was the most ruthless. His daughter had died by Ye Fan's hand. If it weren't for the pursuit of immortality, he would have attacked long ago. Now that he had the chance, how could he let it go?

“I will go to the Immortal Road with you!” Ye Fan stated calmly.

He believed that once the Cauldron of Immortality entered the chaotic realm this time, it would no longer leave any flawed traces, as it had already been reformed and was no longer the divine artifact of old.

Now, all that was needed was time; he couldn't let the four Supremes continue their pursuit.

Seeing that the Dragon Emperor still wanted to unleash a massacre, the remaining three stopped him, not allowing him to act on emotion. They surrounded Ye Fan, forcing him to step onto the Immortal Road.

“Hmm, where did that Golden Crow go? It would be even better if we could catch it too.”

“It must have completed its tribulation and is likely hiding, severely wounded. It only imprinted part of its mark on this universe; that Great Emperor is somewhat flawed, not complete, heh!”

The Immortal Pass, the Chaotic Hole, and the Reincarnation Gate had not yet closed and had been forcefully opened by them. Standing before the Celestial Gate once more, the Supremes intended to force Ye Fan inside, seeking to observe the outcome.

Suddenly, everyone was startled; there were people inside the Immortal Gate, undergoing transformation and breaking through to a new stage.

“There are two people!”

One was a monk, with kind brows and benevolent eyes, bearing a solemn and majestic appearance. The other was an elder, ethereal and detached from worldly concerns, exuding a sense of non-action and harmony with nature.

Ye Fan was surprised; he recognized both individuals—one was Siddhartha Gautama, and the other was Laozi.

During the Dark Turmoil years ago, these two had also participated in the battle, though not in close combat, but by casting spells from a distance.

He harbored complex feelings towards these two divine beings. He had always wanted to find them, with many questions he wished to ask for clarification. But now that he himself stood in the Supreme realm, he realized it was no longer imperative to meet them.

Moreover, his former hopes and reverence had long since vanished.

“You're quick! You think it's too easy to use this opportunity to rush into the Immortal Realm!”

“Boom!”

One of the four Supremes made a move, intending to blast them to death. Siddhartha Gautama and Laozi coughed up large mouthfuls of blood, their bodies glowing, stuck in place and only able to passively defend themselves.

“Hmm, don't rush. Let's observe first. They've only just begun their transformation. Isn't this the result we hoped to see? We can just stop them at the crucial moment,” the White Tiger Daoist sneered.

The two had entered simultaneously. At this moment, their bones were shattering, their flesh and blood being destroyed and then reassembled. Their Dao foundations were being severed, and mysterious runes were being infused into them.

“Hmm, their Dao marks are being erased. Is it being replaced by an immortal Dao foundation?”

The four Supremes watched in astonishment, and even Ye Fan's eyes gleamed with wonder.

“Don't accidentally let them truly achieve immortality. If that happens, it will be a great disaster for us!”

“No, even with mysterious runes being infused, I don't feel them getting stronger.”

Before the Celestial Gate, everyone was meticulously observing, trying to comprehend the final secret of achieving immortality.

“Hmm, these two have quite the background. I almost overlooked it; they feel somewhat familiar.”

“One is a resurrected Heavenly Venerate's corpse, who almost achieved an alternative form of Daohood. He is... the Moral Heavenly Venerate of the Mythical Era!” When the Beast God uttered this name, everyone's eyes flashed with brilliance.

Ye Fan remained silent upon hearing this. As expected, his previous conjecture had come true: Laozi was once an ancient Heavenly Venerate, who could be simply called Dao Venerate. The *Dao Scripture* was likely his legacy.

“This monk's physical body is from this era, but his divine consciousness is somewhat peculiar, as if it was born from some kind of mental energy!” The Dragon Emperor frowned.

“He's half of Amitābha!” the White Tiger Daoist suddenly exclaimed, his eyes widening as he stared at Siddhartha Gautama.

Everyone knew that Buddhist divine abilities were peerless, possessing many secret techniques. Especially their mastery of mental energy had long reached perfection, becoming truly supernatural. There were rumors that Amitābha had never truly died, that his divine thoughts lived on in the hearts of all beings, and would one day reassemble to reappear in the world.

“He has only gathered half of himself and has cast off his past. He can be called Amitābha reborn, or perhaps his demonic shell!”

“Where is the other half?”

The words spoken by the Supremes were shocking, simply because they were so powerful and knew so much, allowing them to make such deductions immediately.

Ye Fan was speechless; it was only today that he fully understood the true origins of these two legendary ancient figures.

“The immortal laws have begun to sever their Great Emperor marks!”

Both individuals suffered unimaginable calamities. Laozi's physical body was being pared down, while Siddhartha Gautama's primordial spirit was almost extinguished. This sight sent shivers down the spines of the Supremes.

However, new runes were being replenished. As much as was extinguished, so much was reignited. Yet, no matter how they looked at it, it seemed somewhat bizarre.

“Are Amitābha's thoughts and the Dao Venerate's physical body both to be cleansed, leaving no Great Emperor marks behind?!”

The Supremes marveled, considering their own situation. Wouldn't they have to undergo a double cleansing, losing all their cultivation, only to have it replaced with the divine marks of the Immortal Realm's laws? This made them uneasy.

“Their transformation ends here. Don't let them actually achieve immortality.”

At this moment, people noticed that the two were becoming increasingly brilliant, almost burning, undergoing a complete metamorphosis and intense restructuring, while also emitting an exceptionally powerful aura.

It was a disaster; the two were blasted out, covered in blood, and almost shattered.

Although Ye Fan tried to intervene and lend them a hand, he failed, and the two were forced out, severely wounded and almost obliterated.

“Crack!”

After they reconstituted, the two surprisingly disintegrated multiple times. This world seemed to reject them; the newly infused Immortal Realm laws were useless in this realm.

“What's going on? They seem to have been severely injured because of this!” The Supremes were alarmed, growing even more apprehensive of the Celestial Gate.

Siddhartha Gautama and Laozi chose to temporarily join forces. Hand in hand, with one's divine consciousness overturned and the other's physical body severely damaged, they could only unleash the power of a single individual when cooperating in this manner.

Despite their calamity, they remained serene, not uttering a single word or saying much.

“There's something strange. Why is achieving immortality somewhat terrifying? Does it mean that once one crosses over, they can never again be compatible with their original world?”

The Beast Emperor's eyes turned chilling; he felt something was amiss.

“Human Saint Body, it's your turn. Go and achieve immortality!” The White Tiger Daoist pointed, forcing him inside, wanting to continue observing, as the changes in Siddhartha Gautama and the other were too bizarre, somewhat alarming.

“Aren't you afraid that I might accidentally achieve immortality directly, and then destroy this gate in the other realm, extinguishing all your hopes?” Ye Fan's lips curved in a hint of mockery.

“Alas!” Hearing these words, the Phoenix Winged Golden Spear let out a soft sigh, offering no reply. Instead, it tried to gaze through the boundless void, attempting to see through the Great Forbidden Zones of the Big Dipper.

“They still haven't arrived. Don't they believe us? Hmm, we want to use the Saint Body for experiments, but do they think we are also experimental subjects?” The Beast Emperor frowned.

“We can't worry about that now. How will we know if we don't try? We're out of time,” the Dragon Emperor bellowed, intending to force Ye Fan inside.

Ye Fan naturally refused to yield. A great battle erupted, with Laozi and Siddhartha Gautama also joining in. The place instantly boiled with activity!

Blood bloomed, and countless immortal lights danced.

“Boom!”

The Cauldron of Immortality crashed down, having returned once more!

“Father, we've come to help you!” Little Zi had also arrived, surprisingly.

Not only her, but Ji Ziyue was also there. Both had special physiques, and with the help of the Cauldron of Immortality, they reached Ye Fan's side, merging into his manifestation. Immediately, they mobilized all the light rain and essence from heaven and earth to replenish Ye Fan's needs.

Their bloodlines were exceptionally unique. One was a Primordial Spirit Body, and the other a Primordial Spirit Saint Body. The origin of all things was connected to them, forming a bridge to connect Ye Fan to the Mother Source.

Now, with the Cauldron of Immortality in hand, Ye Fan was actually on the verge of a successful counterattack, about to escape from this predicament.

Blood splattered, and the battle raged intensely.

Little Zi and her mother were hidden within the Cauldron of Immortality, which hovered inside Ye Fan's manifestation, drawing forth the essence of all things and releasing fragments of immortal laws to protect and assist Ye Fan.

The situation was improving, and Laozi and Siddhartha Gautama were also fighting.

However, an alarming development occurred once more. The auras of two primeval beasts surged forth, encompassing everything. Two more Supremes had emerged, joining the Beast God and others to block Ye Fan, intending to force him onto the Immortal Road.

“You two, go in!” Ye Fan suddenly made this decision, telling Ji Ziyue and his daughter to enter the Celestial Gate.

“Ye Fan…” Ji Ziyue softly called out. When Ye Fan had come alone at this moment, she knew he was likely in great danger and wished to face death alongside him. His daughter also refused to leave. Were they finally confronting this situation?

“There will be no danger, go in!” Ye Fan's tone was firm. He directly flipped the cauldron, pushing the two into the Celestial Gate.

“Huh? How can this be?” Almost simultaneously, everyone was shocked.

The mother and daughter barely exerted any effort; runes flashed all over their bodies as they stepped through the Celestial Gate and entered the Immortal Realm!

“What?! Why is this happening? Is it just because they haven't become Emperors, have no Imperial Dao foundation, so they don't need to be severed?!” The White Tiger Daoist went mad.

“Impossible! Not having become Emperors, yet they're unrestricted? Have they achieved immortality? I refuse to accept this!” the Beast Emperor roared.
