Theoretically speaking, the power of laws mastered at the Immortal King level is already at the pinnacle of the laws, no different from that of an Emperor.
But in reality, his combat strength is worlds apart from that of the Immortal Emperor.
A Celestial Emperor who wields divine power does more than simply use it to strengthen their domain.
Reaching the Immortal Emperor level also results in an exponential difference in the application of the power of laws.
Unlike Ye Feng, who needs to activate his divine eye, a simple glance is enough to see the lines of law... and even trigger the rules.
Under such conditions, for a Celestial King to harm a Celestial Emperor is simply a pipe dream.
Even if a Celestial King opens a celestial realm, a Celestial Emperor can render it useless simply by manipulating the lines of law...
Only grotto-heavens at the Immortal Emperor level can be called small worlds, where sentient beings can be born.
And from then on, the erosion of chaos could no longer invade its territory...and it enjoyed eternal life!
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Dark Emperor Moro couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"In just three years, you've managed to collect ten points of divine power... If this continues, you'll reach the Emperor Realm in less than forty years!"
Forty years... so that's a hundred points!
That's simple.
"I have another question. I wonder if Emperor Moro could answer it for me?"
"Speak freely, and we will tell you everything we know! Now that you are one of us, we will need to work together to purify the evil tree in the future!"
The Demon Emperor spoke earnestly, his eyes filled with satisfaction as he looked at Ye Feng.
They had originally intended to use his formation to seal the gap in the heavens and earth, but now it seemed that with Ye Feng's purification speed, it was better not to seal the gap.
Without the threat of the world collapsing at any moment, the Evil Tree will probably become a real treasure!
The words of the Demon Emperor made Ye Feng feel a sense of warmth.
But these words raised another question for him...
"Your Majesty's words are somewhat puzzling... If one can absorb divine power and become an emperor by refining the evil tree, why are there only ten emperors in the Immortal Realm!"
"Speaking of Immortal Kings, there are probably hundreds or even thousands in this realm, if not tens of thousands. If they could all absorb divine power... wouldn't the number of Immortal Emperors be quite large over these tens of millions of years?"
The celestial realm has been invaded by evil forces for fifteen million years.
Not to mention the Celestial Kings who died in battles during this period, the number who perished naturally was also extremely large.
If everyone could refine the evil tree and absorb divine power, there should be at least several thousand to tens of thousands of people who could become emperors!
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, all the emperors couldn't help but shake their heads.
Finally, it was Emperor Fanghua who spoke.
"The Evil Tree... is not so easy to refine. Apart from Immortal Kings who comprehend the ultimate laws from the beginning, only your kind of spiritual leaf..."
As he spoke, Emperor Fanghua paused for a moment.
"Your pre-existing divine power counts too! But very few people master divine power on their own... Besides you, only Yuan Chen and Mo Luo are like that."
At this point, Emperor Yuanchen, dressed in a white Taoist robe, took over the conversation.
"To directly comprehend the ultimate laws is inherently extremely difficult. Even if one does manage to comprehend them, reaching the Profound Immortal realm before the end of one's life is virtually impossible..."
Throughout hundreds of millions of years since ancient times, only a handful of people have reached that level, and of those, only eight have become emperors!
Moro stared intently at Ye Feng, as if trying to see through his secrets.
"It's virtually impossible for an ordinary Celestial King to refine the Evil Tree. We've made countless attempts, and these Celestial Kings can at best only suppress the evil energy..."
To completely refine them would likely take until their lifespans expired! We later distributed some branches to the various kings... but so far, it hasn't had much effect; many immortal kings have even simply thrown these evil branches into the mortal realm!
Ye Feng frowned. So the Evil Sword had such an origin; its source was actually a test by several Immortal Emperors...
"But you possess both of these qualities simultaneously... or rather, all three! A spiritual leaf capable of purifying evil, divine power capable of resisting evil intent... and you directly master the ultimate law!"
To absorb divine power and become an Immortal Emperor, one must refine the Evil Tree oneself to absorb its divine power and become an Emperor! Anyone who masters just one of these methods has a very high chance of becoming an Emperor, but you possess all three!
Having all three means one is destined to become an Immortal Emperor... After Moro said that, Ye Feng no longer wanted to ask his previous questions.
For ordinary people, comprehending even one ultimate law ahead of time is incredibly difficult; two... even for these Immortal Emperors, it's an extremely difficult feat.
There's no need for me to speak out and invite hatred... Once I've gathered all 100 points of divine power and become an Immortal Emperor, the grotto-heaven will naturally be formed.
After Moro finished speaking, Zhao Yinman, who was still standing behind Ye Feng, was almost fainting from happiness.
I possess a spiritual leaf capable of purifying the evil tree... Am I about to become an Immortal Emperor?
If it weren't for the Water Blossom Tree that Ye Feng gave her, even if she became a Celestial King, she wouldn't have been able to advance to Celestial Emperor.
But now... how fortunate I am to be his woman!
I am Zhao Yinman, the Manyin Emperor!
...
Seeing Ye Feng remain silent, the Blood Blade Emperor beside him revealed another shocking piece of news.
"Boy, do you know that before the flaws in the universe appeared, there was no such realm as Immortal Emperor..."
If there's no Immortal Emperor realm... then what about the current Immortal Emperors?
"In the past, the Immortal King realm was already the pinnacle of the world! Beyond that..."
"The realm of gods?" Ye Feng replied.
A hint of surprise appeared on the Blood Blade Emperor's face, then he nodded.
"Indeed! Above that is ascension to the God Realm... Unfortunately, a flaw has appeared in the heavens and earth, and several supreme laws are incomplete... This path to ascension has been severed!"
What! !
Ye Feng's eyes widened. If the path to the God Realm was cut off, how could he possibly go to the God Realm to find Xiao Xuan and her son?
"Theoretically speaking, we've already reached the realm of gods..."
The realm of gods... The Immortal Emperor is the realm of gods!
Having reached the realm of gods, they are unable to ascend further...
After Ye Feng had processed the information for a while, the group began to speak again.
Dragon Soul: "Now, how should we distribute this? Shouldn't we discuss it? Since Emperor Penglai has such power to purify the evil tree, shouldn't he take on a larger share?"
Kunpeng: "That's right... Although Emperor Fanghua didn't increase his purification share after obtaining the Fire Maple Tree, the Fire Maple Leaves were still consumed on the battlefield, which means he contributed extra effort!"
...
Before Ye Feng could speak, the two of them, in their back-and-forth banter, seemed to have already assigned him the task, wishing he could solve all the problems with the evil tree by himself.
Ye Feng ignored them and turned his head towards Moro.
"Could the flaw in the universe lie within the Dark Empire...? How many evil trees remain unpurified?"
"That's right! The center of the Dark Empire is where the gaps in the heavens and earth are located. As for how many there are... if I remember correctly, there should be 198,500!"
Ye Feng: ....
