Chapter 247 Encountering the Two Heavenly Lords

Chapter 247: Encountering Two Heavenly Emperors

They were two young figures, shrouded in the radiance of the Great Dao, possessing extraordinary temperaments.

One had a peculiar bearing, like an emperor with the inspiring power of a spring breeze, giving off an exceptionally stable feeling.

The other was even more unique; though appearing like a scholar, he possessed immense majesty, like a Heavenly Emperor who ruled over all ages.

They looked at the Immortal Gate standing in the galaxy, revealing solemn expressions.

"Greetings, Immortal Emperor!"

"Greetings, Heavenly Emperor!"

Seeing the two appear, the many immortals and demons gathered near the Immortal Gate all bowed in greeting.

The two waved their hands, still observing the Immortal Gate in the starry sky. Radiance of the Great Dao flickered in their eyes as they continuously performed deductions.

However, no matter how they deduced, they could not obtain any effective information.

Moreover, the Immortal Gate's method of dissolving the aura of the Annihilation Tribulation was not within their scope of understanding; it was a method they could not comprehend.

There were no traces of the 'Great Dao' as they knew it!

Originally, their six Great Heavenly Emperors had pushed the Dao Lord Hall, built during the Far Dao era, into the prehistoric era, delaying the arrival of the prehistoric Annihilation Tribulation. Then, the two of them planned to jointly suppress this nascent form of the final Annihilation Tribulation, fighting for a sliver of hope for more people.

As a result, on their way to the Magical Realm Universe, heading towards the nascent form of the Annihilation Tribulation, they saw the Immortal Gate standing deep within the Magical Realm Universe, suppressing the aura of annihilation.

"Could it be outsiders again? But why would outsiders show themselves at this time?" Jiangnan looked at the Immortal Gate, subtly glancing at Ye Lin beside him.

This one is also an outsider. It was precisely because this outsider, in order to cultivate to the end of the Great Dao and pass through the endless void, came here and opened up this universe and spacetime, that his own existence became possible.

"Outsiders from other places, just like me and Immortal Revered Qinglian?" Ye Lin looked at the Immortal Gate, naturally thinking of this possibility.

"But that method..." He looked at the radiance overflowing from the Immortal Gate, his mind flooded with more doubts.

Of course, the outsiders they spoke of were not the same as the outsiders defined by Fang Ming and Ye Fan. Ye Lin and Jiangnan were still under the same Supreme Dao.

Considering it, they were like fellow countrymen from very far away.

Ye Lin's thoughts turned. He looked at Jiangnan not far away and said, "Heavenly Emperor, your methods are brilliant. Have you seen any clues?"

Jiangnan, choked by Ye Lin's words, didn't mind. He said indifferently, "Your Majesty is knowledgeable and exceptionally courageous. Where can we not go when we join forces?"

"So what if they are outsiders? Is Your Majesty perhaps intimidated?" He smiled as he looked at Ye Lin.

At present, he was already at the peak of the Dao Lord realm, approaching the Great Perfection of the Primordial Dao Lord. Ye Lin, on the other hand, had already attained the Dao through his primordial spirit, theoretically surpassing the Great Perfection of the Dao Lord realm and not far from the end of the Great Dao they sought to achieve.

"Intimidated?" Ye Lin smiled faintly and said, "I have witnessed the true end of the Great Dao. I can't imagine anything that could make me show timidity!"

As they spoke, the two had already arrived before the Immortal Gate, only a step away from crossing through it.

Having made their decision, the two no longer hesitated. In an instant, they crossed through the Immortal Gate and arrived in the World behind it.

"Oh, two Fellow Daoists have already come over."

Just as they crossed through the Immortal Gate, they heard this voice ring out.

Following the sound, Jiangnan and Ye Lin's eyes instantly narrowed, their hearts filled with awe.

Two young men were seated under a tea pavilion.

One wore green clothes and had an aura of boundless Chaos. Seeing him was like seeing true Chaos; it was as if Chaos was his very embodiment.

As for the other person wearing purple clothes, he was even more terrifying to them. He was no different from an ordinary person. The two of them could not sense any aura of the Great Dao on this young man.

This was a feeling they had never experienced before, a feeling different from anything in the past.

Seeing the two young men, they almost simultaneously had the same thought: "The end of the Great Dao!?"

"I am Xuantian. Greetings, two Fellow Daoists." Fang Ming's Chaos avatar spoke first with an inexplicable smile.

He looked at Ye Fan beside him and said, "This is Ye Fan. He once established the heavens and earth, ruled over all worlds, and was honored by the world as the Heavenly Emperor."

He knew that this Heavenly Emperor had also used the name 'Xuantian' before, but after experiencing various things, he no longer used it.

"That's in the past. I'm not really a Heavenly Emperor anymore." Ye Fan waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Jiangnan, Jiang Zichuan, greetings, two Fellow Daoists."

"Ye Lin, greetings, two Fellow Daoists."

Jiangnan and Ye Lin spoke one after another.

"Two Fellow Daoists, please have a seat and a cup of tea." Ye Fan spoke, making a gesture of invitation, and then said, "We have come from outside this region, intending to find some like-minded individuals and Fellow Daoists to exchange ideas. If we have disturbed you, please forgive us."

The moment he saw the two of them, he had already deduced their origins and knew they were not evil individuals, which was why he extended the invitation.

Jiangnan and Ye Lin did not hesitate. They strode forward and sat on the stone stools.

Suppressing the nascent form of the Annihilation Tribulation was not urgent at this moment, but the two people they had just met were very important to them, potentially even capable of resolving the Annihilation Tribulation.

They weren't so pressed for Time that they didn't even have a few moments to talk. From the attitudes of the two, they weren't the extremely evil beings like Emperor Lin's father.

However, even if they were evil beings, there was nothing they could do; the people had already arrived.

"This is not a disturbance, but the timing of the two Fellow Daoists' arrival isn't particularly good." Jiangnan said, shaking his head, "Of course, perhaps for the two Fellow Daoists, this is irrelevant."

"The timing is indeed not great, but it's not the worst situation either." Fang Ming said very calmly.

In fact, for him, this situation was already considered good.

However, such words naturally conveyed different meanings in the hearts of different people.

"Have they cultivated to the true end of the Great Dao and achieved Primordial status?" This question arose in Jiangnan's heart.

"As expected! If I cultivate to the end of the Great Dao in the future, even the final Annihilation Tribulation won't be able to do anything to me!" After Ye Lin heard Fang Ming's words, this thought arose in his mind.

Thinking of this, Ye Lin opened his mouth and asked, "May I ask presumptuously, have the two Fellow Daoists already cultivated to the realm of the end of the Great Dao?"

Since the other party had said they came for exchange, it was better to be a bit bolder.

"The end of the Great Dao?" Fang Ming's gaze shifted. He looked at Ye Fan and said, "It's better for Ye Tiandi (Emperor) to answer this question. Relatively speaking, his cultivation is countless levels higher than mine!"

Hearing this, both Jiangnan and Ye Lin looked towards Ye Fan, who was tasting the tea.

Ye Fan shook his head and said calmly, "I am not the end of the Great Dao, nor is Profound Heaven Fellow Daoist the end of the Great Dao."

"Not!?" Ye Lin showed a look of surprise, but the method of suppressing the aura of the Annihilation Tribulation couldn't be fake; it was a method he couldn't understand.

Moreover, these two people before him were unfathomable and their strength was immeasurable. He could still sense some clues about the person named Xuantian; Chaos was like his embodiment, far more terrifying than Bukong!

He felt that even if Bukong achieved the end of the Chaos Great Dao, he might not possess this person's strength.

Ye Lin did not hesitate and immediately asked, "I observe that the cultivation of the two Fellow Daoists is unfathomable. Even though I have attained the Dao through my primordial spirit, I cannot sense the depth of the two Fellow Daoists."

"Could it be that the realm after Dao Lord Perfection is not the end of the Great Dao, but there are other realms?" He looked at Ye Fan with uncertainty and surprise.

Similarly, Jiangnan's heart was also filled with doubts. If this were the case, wouldn't their pursuit be mistaken?

"I think Fellow Daoist Ye Lin has misunderstood. We have come from outside this region." Ye Fan shook his head and said, "In my homeland, the saying 'end of the Great Dao' is not popular. The countless cultivation systems and practitioners ultimately do not seek to attain this Dao fruit."

"Not popular? The Dao fruit that practitioners ultimately seek to attain is not the end of the Great Dao either?" Jiangnan and Ye Lin frowned simultaneously, feeling puzzled.

In their view, the Great Dao leads to the same destination through different paths, so the final pursuit should also be the same.

Ye Lin and Immortal Revered Qinglian also came from outside this region, infinitely far from here. The realm they ultimately sought to cultivate to was also the end of the Great Dao, also called 'Primordial'.

The two cupped their hands and said, "Please enlighten us, Fellow Daoist."

Ye Fan pondered for a moment, then said, "In my homeland, the end of cultivation, widely known and recognized by the world, is called 'Road's End' or 'Immortal Emperor'. This realm stands on the cliff of the Dao, being both the ultimate and the transcendent."

"Road's End? On the cliff of the Dao?"

"Immortal Emperor?"

Jiangnan and Ye Lin exchanged glances, both seeing confusion in the other's eyes.

At this moment, Ye Fan's voice continued to ring out. He said, "We do not pursue cultivating the original Supreme Dao to its perfect end. After cultivating the original countless Great Daos to a certain extent, we will jump out of the Supreme Dao and pursue achieving the Dao ourselves, surpassing the Dao ourselves. Of course, this can also be called an alternative way of achieving the Dao."

In an instant, Jiangnan and Ye Lin's hearts trembled, and they understood the difference between these two cultivation philosophies.

If the two philosophies were compared to two circles, the countless living beings within the circles are practitioners.

The practitioners within one circle pursue expanding themselves, striving to fit the circle, or even completely overlap with the circle.

This is their cultivation philosophy of pursuing the end of the Great Dao.

The beings in the other circle also first expand themselves, but after expanding to a certain extent, they will jump out of the original circle and become another circle themselves.

This is the cultivation philosophy of Road's End Immortal Emperors from Ye Tiandi (Emperor)'s homeland.

Of course, although the philosophies are different, theoretically, their ultimate achievements are at a similar height.

Ye Lin looked at the tea on the stone table, momentarily lost in thought. At this point, he naturally understood that the so-called Road's End was even beyond the end of the Great Dao as he understood it.

His end of the Great Dao was not the true end of the Great Dao; what he attained was merely the end of a certain segment of the true, unique Supreme Dao.

The so-called attainment of the Dao at the end of the Great Dao means trying one's best to depict the true appearance of the Dao.

It now seemed that these Heavenly Emperors were merely blind men before the Supreme Dao.

The phrase "blind men touching an elephant" would one day also apply to these powerful Heavenly Emperors.

Indeed, as that Heavenly Emperor said, such an end could not be considered true Primordial status. When the tribulation arrived, their bodies would perish and their Dao would disappear!

At this moment, Jiangnan clapped his hands and sighed, "What a wonderful concept of surpassing the Dao oneself! It's truly marvelous!"

If one forms their own Dao, they naturally have no fear of the so-called Annihilation Tribulation.

Moreover, compared to the Primordial state, or the end of the Great Dao, and other similar realms where all Great Daos originate from the current unique Supreme Dao, the Immortal Emperor realm might possess some additional divine peculiarities.
