Two women became immortals and entered the Immortal Realm, driving the Supremes into a frenzied rage. How could this happen? How could those who had not even achieved emperorship pass through so easily?

Naturally unwilling to accept this, they attacked frantically, trying to force their way in. They even intended to kill the mother and daughter through the Celestial Gate.

Unfortunately, it was useless. All laws and principles were unable to pass through the Celestial Gate; they would be "baptized," undergoing decomposition and reassembly.

"Ye Zi..." Ji Ziyue cried out, wanting to rush back. She didn't want to become an immortal; she only wanted to be with Ye Fan. She knew it would be difficult for Ye Fan to enter, and forcing his way through would be life-threatening.

No one could understand why weaker cultivators could pass through, while powerful individuals encountered so many hardships.

"Father!" Little Zi also cried out, rushing back with Ji Ziyue. However, they were blocked by swathes of light rain. They began to glow from head to toe, rapidly completing a baptism that rendered them sacred and noble, preventing them from returning.

"Boom!" The Celestial Gate became unstable, showing signs of collapse. This made everyone anxious. The idea that only two or three people could become immortals in one era echoed like a curse in their hearts, leaving the Supremes apprehensive, anxious, and deeply unsettled.

No matter how they attacked, they simply could not pass through. To become an immortal and cross the Celestial Gate, one had to undergo the baptism.

The great battle inevitably erupted. Ye Fan wanted to gaze at his wife and daughter for a final moment. He was suddenly overcome with sadness; this... this was actually going to be a permanent farewell!

It was too sudden. All of this was beyond his control today; he had been forced into this situation.

Becoming an immortal was originally a beautiful wish, but now that it had come true, it meant being separated from his wife and daughter across two realms. There was no beauty or serenity at all; he only felt a wave of coldness. His mind became unstable, and an uncontrollable wave of immense sorrow welled up.

"Father, we want to be with you!" Little Zi cried out, but she couldn't rush through the gate. Blocked by a swath of light rain, their transformation was complete.

"Ye Fan..." Ji Ziyue stretched out her hands, her eyes brimming with tears. How could this separation be so sudden? They had only come to assist in the battle, yet they had become immortals just like this.

If they had a choice, they wouldn't want to become immortals at all. This was a profound sorrow; from now on, they would never be able to see Ye Fan again.

"Ah..." The Supremes roared, their hearts aching even more. Had they waited for eons only for this outcome? Even the Imperial Dao Supremes couldn't become immortals, yet two mortals in their eyes had taken that step.

The unstable Celestial Gate shook from the blows but remained difficult to open. The Supremes felt desolate and helpless. They had schemed their entire lives, used unscrupulous means to survive until now, only to be left with regret, watching a grand spectacle end in emptiness.

"Kill!" The several figures charged desperately. Ye Fan, too, wished to gaze at his wife and daughter for a moment longer, not wanting the four Supremes to interfere. This inevitable battle became even more intense than before.

Unfortunately, there was ultimately no outcome. Seeing the Celestial Gate's instability, they became increasingly anxious.

"There's still one spot left!" White Tiger Daoist, Beast Emperor, and the other four charged forward, desperate to force their way in. They became stuck at the Celestial Gate, neither ascending nor descending, as infinite Dao light surged towards them.

Ye Fan acted indifferently, striking forward with the Immortal Cauldron, which caused the four to cry out as they were all knocked back out, filled with hatred, sorrow, and madness. It was the final moment; if they didn't break through now, there would truly be no chance left.

However, with Ye Fan guarding outside, they had no recourse, unless three of them were to sacrifice themselves to protect the gate for one.

"Two fellow Daoists, since you have come, if you are unwilling to contend for this Immortal Gate, could you perhaps restrain others for me? If I become an immortal, I will surely guide you into the Immortal Domain in the future!"

The four could no longer hold back and almost simultaneously sent out telepathic messages, seeking help from the two Supremes who had arrived later. By now, anxiety had spread through their hearts, and each of them was drenched in cold sweat, truly desperate to an unbearable degree.

The two sighed, knowing that they could not enter in this era no matter what. The Celestial Gate was already unstable, and time was running out!

They had not yet achieved ultimate sublimation and didn't want to waste their life essence there. So, they calmly turned and left, disappearing in a blink, departing decisively.

"Ah..." "Holy Body, what exactly do you want?!" The Beast God roared.

No one had expected that at this final moment, the Holy Body would instead become their greatest obstacle to entering the Immortal Domain.

"Even if I don't act, only one of you can go in. How will the other three face that? Will they just stand by and watch?" Ye Fan retorted.

As he spoke these words, he constantly looked at the other realm within the Celestial Gate, where two hands desperately reached out but couldn't quite reach.

"Benefactor, you go in. We will hold them off for a moment for you." Shakyamuni and Laozi approached, surprisingly ready to act.

Centuries had passed, and these two had long since achieved profound mastery, attaining an alternative path to Dao. They were many times more formidable than before, now qualified to fight against the Supremes.

"Father!" Little Zi cried out hopefully, her face filled with longing.

Ye Fan's heart trembled. He looked at his wife and daughter, strongly wanting to step in right then. But he remembered his promises to lead the Heavenly Court's forces into battle: if he left, what would happen to them later?

He didn't even need to think to know that if he were to become an immortal now, the four Supremes would inevitably launch the most terrifying dark turmoil. Not a single member of the Heavenly Court would survive; they would all be hunted down and killed.

Even if these four didn't have much life left and might not last long enough to find the Heavenly Court's forces, there were still supreme Imperial Dao experts in the forbidden zones who held a deep grudge against him. If he wasn't there, the Heavenly Court's forces still wouldn't survive.

"Ye Fan..." Despair and sorrow filled Ji Ziyue's pale face. She knew him, understood Ye Fan, and grasped his intentions. What more could she say at this moment but a heartbreaking call?

"I will become an immortal; we will meet again someday!" In the end, he only managed to utter these eight words. His throat felt choked, and his eyes blurred.

These eight words determined the rest of his life. This would be a separation in life that felt like death, signifying an eternal separation between mortals and immortals. Perhaps it could even be said they would never see each other again.

The Immortal Path could not be opened at all times; the next time might be tens of thousands or even millions of years later. Those eight words were heavy as a mountain, suffocating Ye Fan and making his body tremble.

"Father, I really can't leave you!" Little Zi cried loudly.

Ji Ziyue's tears had already blurred her eyes. Filled with helplessness and sorrow, she whispered, "These years with you, I've been very happy. I... will wait for you!"

"Ah..." Ye Fan roared, his black hair standing on end, filled with tragic madness and helplessness. He wished he could shatter the sky with a punch, break through the Celestial Gate, and directly charge in, but he couldn't.

"Two seniors, please become immortals and take care of them for me!"

Finally, Ye Fan roared out these words, pushing Shakyamuni and Laozi inside. He then abruptly turned around, confronting the four Supremes alone.

"Father!" Little Zi's face was covered in tears as she struggled and cried out.

"Your father has his own choice," Ji Ziyue comforted her, though her own heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife, and tears flowed continuously. "The brothers and sisters of the Heavenly Court cannot do without him. He has to fulfill his promise. In the future... we will meet again."

They gazed blankly, enduring their sorrow.

Shakyamuni and Laozi did not want to become immortals in this way, but they were pushed in by Ye Fan using the Immortal Cauldron, blocking the gate to undergo baptism and transformation.

The Beast God, Myriad Dragon Emperor, White Tiger Daoist, and others were naturally enraged. In their despair, they unleashed their strongest combat power, fighting fiercely there.

Ye Fan was covered in blood, and his body shattered several times, but he refused to retreat, resisting with the Immortal Cauldron.

"Boom!" Inside the Celestial Gate, a torrent formed by converging light rain swept forth, instantly carrying away Ji Ziyue and Little Zi, submerging them into a golden ocean.

Those were their last two calls. They waved vigorously, sorrowful and helpless, tears falling like rain.

Tears streamed down Ye Fan's face as he cried out loudly, "I love you!"

He was not someone good at expressing his emotions; these words had never been spoken by him. Only at this moment did he utter them with difficulty, facing the world within the Celestial Gate.

Ji Ziyue smiled—a happy smile, yet also a sorrowful one. She had spent nearly a thousand years with him without ever hearing these words, but she had always understood his feelings. At that moment, whatever she wanted to shout, a swath of golden light rain engulfed them.

"Boom!" The Celestial Gate disintegrated. Shakyamuni and Laozi's lower bodies were severed and left on this side, while their upper bodies entered the Immortal Domain, barely making it through.

"Only two or three can become immortals in one era!" "I refuse to accept this!" "A scam of a thousand ages!"

The four Supremes roared, fiercely attacking Ye Fan.

At this moment, the Immortal Path began to collapse entirely, with endless large cracks spreading. The Celestial Gate closed, and everything would cease to exist. This era had ended.

"Boom!" With a final loud bang, the entire Immortal Path exploded. Light rain scattered, a fleeting dream, leaving nothing behind.

The four Supremes surged forth, frantically chasing Ye Fan, determined to fight him to the death. They were utterly desperate, having no hope left in this life.

They had strived their entire lives, fought for eons, yet in the end, it was such a disappointing outcome. With no possibility of stepping onto the Immortal Path again, how could they not be filled with sorrow and fear?

"I want to be free; I don't want to be an ignorant weapon anymore! I'd rather be an ordinary mortal than remain bound!"

The Immortal Cauldron spoke to Ye Fan, its obsession very deep.

"Very well, I will grant your wish!" Ye Fan said, staring at the four Supremes. He intended to use their hands to crack the cauldron, hoping to destroy all four of them in the process.

"Heavens, someone really became an immortal!" "Ascending with the rosy clouds, becoming an immortal in broad daylight!"

At this moment, light rain scattered along the Immortal Path, rushing to all corners of the universe, incredibly brilliant. It looked as if immortals were dancing, as if the Immortal Realm had opened wide and connected with this world.

Seeing all this, Ye Fan could only let out a desolate sigh. His face was filled with sorrow. It was too sudden; he had just been separated from his wife and daughter like this. Would they ever meet again in this life?

"The next time the Immortal Path opens will be a million years later!"

Someone in the forbidden zone sighed deeply, filled with regret, desolation, and helplessness. This time, their deductions were wrong; one could truly become an immortal in this era, but they had missed it!

"To become an immortal and establish a Dao for a million years... Hahahaha..." Ye Fan laughed loudly, tears streaming down his face. This time, it was truly a permanent farewell!

"Kill!"

These past few days, I've read various news about the Sanya Hainan Rendez-Vous. I'm heartbroken and deeply regretful! So many girls had their eyes blinded by materialism, their souls bought by money. So many young men had their bodies hollowed out by wine and lust, their youth defiled by desire, alas! The decadent indulgence of capitalism is the biggest obstacle to our nation's great rejuvenation. For such an activity that subverts one's values and destroys one's will, I only want to say four words: I want to go too!
