Chapter 457: Heavenly Destiny Pearl, Entering the Emperor through Taoism
Three days passed quietly.
At the mine, Chen Lan, who had been sitting cross-legged for three days, suddenly opened his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
In front of him was a fist-sized strange stone, emitting golden light and floating in the air.
Chen Lan opened his hands, and the strange stone slowly flew into his palm.
"Yes, this strange stone has been completely refined by me, and I can finally see what is inside." Chen Lan smiled, holding the strange stone tightly, rubbing it twice with a little force, and then he felt the strange stone being rubbed apart.
He opened his hands, and a golden bead appeared before his eyes. With a light breath, Chen Lan blew away the stone debris, and the bead sparkled with golden light, extremely dazzling.
Suddenly, a golden light burst out from the inside of the bead. Before Chen Lan could react, the golden light shot into his mind.
Plop! Chen Lan suddenly fell backwards and lay on the ground, his eyes turning white, as if he had lost his soul.
Another golden light shot out from the bead, forming a protective shield that enveloped Chen Lan's body.
Just at this moment, a ghost came and passed by Chen Lan, but seemed not to see Chen Lan and ignored him and left.
This layer of golden light seems to have a shielding effect.
…
"The ancient immortal war, fate is unpredictable."
"Racial discord will lead to their eventual demise!"
Somewhere in the dark, Chen Lan seemed to hear a heavy voice echoing in his ears, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself in a mysterious and strange white space.
"In the ancient war between immortals, fate was unpredictable, races were at odds, and they were all ultimately destroyed?" Chen Lan muttered to himself, repeating what he had just heard.
"That's right, it will eventually perish!" Suddenly, a voice sounded. Chen Lan looked up suddenly and saw an old man appear in front of him.
The old man was wearing a thin robe, with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile, his face was kind and amiable.
"Senior." Chen Lan said.
"Boy, congratulations, you have obtained the Destiny Pearl."
Hearing this, Chen Lan was slightly stunned, thinking of the beads just now, and asked: "Senior, what is the destiny bead?"
"Ancient Immortal product, can change fate, but can only be changed once."
Chen Lan became excited: "Can it bring people back to life?"
If one can really change fate, then wouldn't it be possible to bring Xiaodie back to life? "No, when a person dies, they are dead, how can one change fate by going against the will of heaven?"
Huh? Chen Lan was stunned. It made sense. He couldn't find any words to refute it.
If you lose your life, how can you change your destiny if you go against the will of heaven?
"Then this bead is of no use to me." Chen Lan sighed.
"Young man, don't you think you have a rough life?" the old man said with a smile.
"Please give me some advice, senior." Chen Lan clasped his fists and said seriously. He could see that this old man seemed to have some skills.
"Fate is unfortunate. The path to invincibility is not easy. Becoming an emperor by this path is even more difficult."
Chen Lan's body trembled: "Senior, do you know that I follow the path of invincibility?"
Realizing that his words were a bit stupid, Chen Lan asked again: "Senior, what do you mean by relying on this way to become an emperor? Please explain!"
"Because I saw a hint of the invincible path in you. You have witnessed alienation. The first step of the invincible path is alienation. You can only move forward and cannot look back. If you want to be truly invincible, you must be strong and powerful, so that others cannot keep up with you. You must be decisive in killing and killing, so that no one in the world dares to provoke you, and everyone in the world is shocked!"
"Some people are afraid of you, some people are afraid that they are not worthy of you, and they gradually become distant. There is nothing you can do. The strong are often lonely, and the path of invincibility is the loneliest of solitudes. I have seen someone walk this path, but it is a pity that he did not finish it."
After saying this, the old man sighed, as if expressing regret.
"Who, and then what?" Chen Lan was very curious. Is the path to invincibility really that difficult?
"That man killed for thousands and tens of thousands of years. When he was about to become an emperor, he found that he had no friends or relatives around him. Even the people he loved died of old age because their realm was too low. He was the only one left. Everyone was afraid of him. He could only endure the pain brought by loneliness and eventually committed suicide. I vaguely remember his last words."
"I will never follow the path of invincibility in my next life. It's too lonely. I'm so lonely that I don't even have a friend or a partner to confide in."
Chen Lan remained silent. He understood that he was too strong and others could not keep up. They might not be as talented as him, and in the end, his friends would die one by one and he would be the only one left.
"But if I bring others to preach the truth together, won't I feel less lonely?" Chen Lan asked back.
"Haha, naive, too naive!" The old man shook his head and sneered, looking at Chen Lan with deep eyes: "You know, the Tao is ruthless. Those who are indecisive, considerate of others, and kind-hearted will never be able to achieve enlightenment. If you want to achieve enlightenment, you must be determined and ruthless, and you must accept the fact that your loved ones have passed away."
"If you can really realize the invincible way while leading others to attain enlightenment, then this Destiny Pearl will be of no use to you."

The old man was very disdainful and thought that Chen Lan was daydreaming. How could practicing Taoism bring any burden? Anyone like this would never succeed.
Chen Lan remained silent for a long time, then he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior. I understand."
"If you can become an emperor through the invincible way, you can come to the heavenly realm to find me. My name is Tianmingzi."
As soon as the words fell, the space dissipated, Chen Lan woke up and sat up abruptly.
Looking at the Destiny Pearl floating in front of him, Chen Lan picked it up and his eyes gradually became firm.
"What a bullshit destiny bead, it can't even help people attain enlightenment, how can you say you want to defy fate? I never defy fate. Heaven is just my stepping stone, how can I defy it!"
Bang! Chen Lan crushed the Destiny Pearl into ashes. This treasure that could change one's fate and countless people wanted to get was crushed by him.
Boom! Thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, as if it was angry, because Chen Lan’s words just now angered the Heaven!
Chen Lan raised his eyes slightly, slowly emitting a demonic aura, and his whole person became sinister and weird.
"One day, I will swallow you up."
Rumble.
There was another rumble of thunder, but it just sounded loud and did not crash down. One was angry but dared not move.
The invincible path that Chen Lan had imagined was never like this. If one stepped into invincibility alone, what kind of invincible path was that!
He wanted to walk out of the real invincible path, and make everyone invincible, that was the real invincibility! Suddenly, Chen Lan's body shook violently, and a mysterious but inexplicable breath floated out of his body. His soul sea trembled, and his body seemed to be much lighter. He felt invincible in the world, and he wanted to be defeated!
This is……
Before he could realize anything, Jintian's words suddenly rang in his mind.
"Master, the demons are coming again. This time there are two Taoist Saints and 100,000 demons. They are attacking the underworld!"
Hearing this, Chen Lan's aura burst out, murderous intent rose up, and he rushed towards the underworld!
