Chapter 749 Are you polite?

Chapter 749: Are you polite?

[Writing up to here, I hope readers remember our domain name. Come to Chao Kaopu to read Taiwan novels.]

The boundless earth and magnificent mountains and rivers saw many Cultivators flying across the horizon, landing on the tallest towering mountain that radiated the brilliance of the Dao.

This is the final pure land of the heavens.

Rows of jade palaces stood in clusters, with countless Disciples, a majestic mountain gate, and numerous immortal birds and Auspicious Beasts jointly guarding this Realm.

On the surface, I must say that this place indeed possesses the aura of the heavens, with clusters of spiritual mountains, brilliant divine lakes, and sacred immortal mists.

Also, groups of Cultivators gathered together, discussing the Dharma and debating the Dao.

Their Realms varied; some were Dao ancestors, and some had yet to achieve Immortal Ascension, yet they could communicate on equal footing in a peaceful atmosphere.

"This—" Lin Fan was moved. This was the heavens he had envisioned in his heart; even a corner of it fully displayed prosperity and power.

Ordinary Dao ancestors coming here and seeing this prosperous picture scroll would certainly think the same: the heavens remain the best sacred land in all worlds.

However, who was he? As an Immortal Emperor, how could he fail to see that behind the peace and harmony, there was Death Qi accompanying it?

The true scene was that many people in the distance were bloodless, pale as paper, and even their bodies were illusory and hazy, very unreal.

"A bunch of dead people!" Lin Fan was startled, unable to believe it.

"Waves churn on the long river of time, projecting from ancient times into the present world. Some people are indeed already dead, and for more than one era at that."

Luo Tianxian whispered, revealing a bloody truth. There was a look of melancholy in her eyes, mixed with endless sorrow.

This was also why the Immortal Emperors of the Strange Clan said that the two of them vainly attempted to project from ancient times into the present world to resurrect the entire heavens.

The heavens had truly been defeated, and a crushing defeat at that, with patches upon patches of living beings perishing!

"Only End-of-the-Road Level beings can see the true scenery of the heavens; even Dao ancestors do not have the ability to see through it."

"This time, if not for the End-of-the-Road Level beings of the Strange Clan suddenly coming here and discovering our purpose, a great battle would not have erupted."

Menghai added an explanation, also letting out a sigh. As the saying goes, a man does not easily shed tears, but only when he hasn't reached the point of heartbreak.

Lin Fan understood. Projecting the heavens in an attempt to resurrect dead family and friends was something he had done as well, just not on such a grand scale.

How vast was the heavens? It was far from comparable to a single group of heavens, yet these two actually intended to revive all of them. Their ambitions were truly a bit too big.

"Actually, many years ago, the heavens were already defeated, torn apart, plunged into misery, with blood floating shields. Over eighty percent of the living beings of all clans died, leaving only Menghai and me at the End-of-the-Road Level."

Luo Tianxian said, even End-of-the-Road Level powerhouses could be killed. Since ancient times, no one could truly be immortal and indestructible.

Of course, on this final pure land, it wasn't entirely dead people. The living and ghosts coexisted, only they themselves did not know it.

Here, using "Hell" to describe it was incorrect; it should be called heaven!

All races, whether living or dead, seemed to be in a dream, isolated from the world.

The reason Luo Tianxian and Menghai did that was because they wanted to turn the illusory into reality, resurrecting those who died in the last great sacrifice.

However, how difficult was this?

Even for an Immortal Emperor, as long as they had thoughts, and someone missed them, they could manifest in the present world—there were also ways to crack it.

"The several deceased End-of-the-Road Level Fellow Daoists all left behind a trace of spirit, wanting to come back to life. Menghai and I also want to restore the heavens, using great magical power to project into the past and guide the recovery of several Fellow Daoists."

Hearing this, Lin Fan was startled. Resurrecting the other living beings wasn't enough; they even wanted to resurrect existences of the same level. He really didn't know what to say.

No wonder the Strange Clan Immortal Emperor would say they were overestimating themselves!

Projecting reality from ancient times and deducing the past was inherently a massive project, and the price to be paid was immeasurable.

However, to make all the dead people think they were alive and in their respective brilliant space-times—this was altering ancient history!

"Can't you two take a further step, achieve a Breakthrough in your original Realm, and then accomplish this matter? Presumably, it would be easier then," Lin Fan asked.

Luo Tianxian and Menghai looked at each other and smiled bitterly, then said with slight surprise, "Fellow Daoist Lin also knows that there is a Realm above the End-of-the-Road Level?"

Lin Fan nodded with a pretense of profundity, saying, "Ever since I stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm, I've always felt that there is still a path to walk upward, and it is not the Peak."

"Allow me to ask presumptuously, how many years have Fellow Daoist Lin and your companion been emperors of the Dao?" Menghai asked curiously.

"It's been less than three million years so far, and my younger brother is a bit younger than me," Lin Fan replied.

"No wonder the Strange Clan would mobilize, searching the whole world for you and your companion. They must have sensed your terrifying potential and wanted to strangle it in the cradle, not giving you a chance to ascend to a higher level."

Luo Tianxian was shocked, her star-like beautiful eyes staring at Lin Fan with a burning eagerness, as if looking at a treasure.

Even Menghai, being a man, couldn't help but take a few extra glances at Lin Fan.

"Indeed, there is still a path above the End-of-the-Road Level, which some call the Sacrificing Dao Realm."

"However, through endless years, only one person in the heavens has reached that Realm."

"That person is my elder sister, whom the world calls the Pollen Emperor."

Luo Tianxian introduced, her words full of admiration, missing, and finally sorrow when mentioning the Pollen Emperor.

Without a doubt, she had fallen—the top combat power of the heavens, the first Sacrificing Daoist, only to die on the plateau of the ominous earth.

"If the Empress were still here, how could the heavens have come to this—" Menghai let out a long sigh, his sorrow tinged with powerlessness.

You must know that this was a fierce figure of a generation in the heavens, a dignified End-of-the-Road Level powerhouse, yet he actually displayed such emotions, which showed the strength of the enemy!

"Since someone has gone before, then—why don't the two of you sacrifice the Dao?" Lin Fan said solemnly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Tianxian and Menghai both rolled their eyes, silently expressing, "Are you polite?"

"Since ancient times, no matter how astonishing your talent or how profound your cultivation, once the sacrifice of the Dao fails, you are destined to fall into eternal silence, dying completely without the possibility of resurrection."

Luo Tianxian stated bluntly that that Realm was difficult to explain in words; even when her elder sister was alive, she rarely mentioned it.

The key to sacrificing the Dao lies in the word "sacrifice"—sacrificing one's own Dao fruit, burning it completely without leaving any leeway, seeking a glimmer of survival within death.

However, how many people in this world have the courage to try such daring feats?

Those who reached the Immortal Emperor Realm naturally existed eternally and were among the most powerful living beings in the world, almost standing at the pinnacle of all worlds. Who would be willing to take risks?

"In fact, through endless years in the heavens, it is not as if no one has tried to sacrifice the Dao, but only the Empress survived and succeeded."

Menghai said solemnly, as he was also an explorer on this path.

However, whenever critical moments arrived, he would sense a great crisis, feeling that continuing would only lead to failure and death, forcing him to stop.

"If you do not stand at the ultimate extreme, never attempt it. Any hesitation will lead to ten deaths and no life."

Luo Tianxian reminded, these were the words her elder sister left behind during her lifetime.

Moreover, the reason these two spoke without reservation also stemmed from their own selfish motives.

After all, having finally waited for a latecomer with potential, if he were to fall in vain because of this, it would be far too much of a pity.

But if Lin Fan succeeded in sacrificing the Dao, the benefits to the heavens would also be immense, able to share the pressure from the Strange Clan.

Perhaps the two of them would even ask him for help in the future.
