Wang Hongyuan shook his head and said, "I don't know. The source of the mist is a huge threat to the Heavenly Domain and even the Three Thousand Worlds!"
"However, it seems that it will be very difficult for the powerful beings at the source of the mist to enter the Heavenly Domain. You don't need to worry unnecessarily!"
Lan Hua asked, "Where did the Pill Emperor go?"
It wasn't just him who wanted to ask; probably all cultivators wanted to know the answer.
Wang Hongyuan looked up and sighed, "He went to the second level of the Heavenly Domain."
Tens of thousands of years have passed, and he has never returned. No one knows the current state of the Pill Emperor!
Upon hearing this, Lan Hua fell silent, as did Wang Hongyuan.
Before leaving, Lan Hua glanced at the dead giant one last time, and a sense of shock once again shook her heart.
This is the power of an emperor; even a corpse possesses immense might and aura.
Outside the altar, Wang Hongyu instructed Lan Hua, "The strange mist and the corpse of this emperor giant are secrets in the Heavenly Domain. If word gets out, it will shake people's hearts. Do you understand?"
"I understand, kid!"
Wang Hongyuan patted Lan Hua on the shoulder, "You're great, the future of the Pill God Palace rests on your shoulders!"
Lan Hua joked, "Palace Master, there's no need to flatter me, is there?"
"One last question, where is the Temple Master?"
Everyone was taken aback; wasn't the Palace Master right in front of them?
Only Wang Hongyuan understood that the Palace Master Lan Hua spoke of was the true Palace Master of the Dan Shen Palace.
"As an emperor, the Palace Master does not appear lightly. When the time is right, he will naturally appear!"
"I understand, kid!"
Lan Hua returned to Danhe Valley, but the turbulent waves in her heart had not yet subsided.
What Lan Hua saw and heard today was completely beyond her comprehension. A peerless emperor-level expert had actually fallen. How shocking!
Those who achieve the status of emperors are invariably the strongest in their respective fields, creating their own path, avoiding reincarnation, and truly achieving immortality alongside heaven and earth.
Even such a ruler was infected by the eerie mist.
This made Lan Hua curious: where did the strange mist come from, and why even the emperor couldn't resist it?
The Heavenly Emperor Dan went to the second level of the Heavenly Realm alone. What happened to him? Will he also be unable to withstand the invasion of the mist and become a bloodthirsty madman?
All of this remains unknown.
In the days that followed, Lan Hua devoted herself to cultivation in Danhe Valley, striving to break through to the Xuan rank as soon as possible.
Although there is deceit and treachery in the Heavenly Realm, it has always been located deep within a super power, almost completely isolated from the outside world.
This is actually the life of most celestial beings; everything seems peaceful and calm, so calm that not a ripple can be stirred.
A year has passed in a flash.
Lan Hua would occasionally visit the Tantai family to inquire about Zi Yue.
Although she was confined to her home, Lan Hua always had a strong feeling that Zi Yue would leave him.
What troubled Lan Hua even more was that after entering the True Realm, her cultivation speed became extremely slow, even though the Pill God Palace had no shortage of miraculous pills and medicines.
Lan Hua then realized that becoming a Venerable was extremely difficult, and becoming an Emperor was absolutely a pipe dream.
On this day, Lan Hua was studying in the valley as usual.
Suddenly, a strange phenomenon occurred in the sky: lightning flashed and thunder roared, the wind and clouds surged, and the clouds in the sky turned into dark clouds, moving westward.
Lan Hua was greatly surprised, thinking to herself that such a strange phenomenon could only be a tribulation, but the Heavenly Realm was different from the lower realms, so how could a tribulation possibly occur?
"Then let's go up to the sky and take a look!"
Lan Hua flew up into the sky and realized that not only did she have this idea, but even the Palace Master Wang Hongyuan and others had the same thought.
However, Lan Hua did not possess the strength of a Xuanzun, so even if she flew into the sky, she could only see the strange phenomena in the distance.
As for where the strange phenomenon occurred, no one knows.
Wang Hongyuan stared westward, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light, and two beams of light shot westward, seemingly able to see to the farthest reaches.
"Hmm? This strange phenomenon seems to be coming from the Buddhist temple in the west!"
Deng Xian'er asked in surprise, "Such a strange phenomenon has not appeared for many years. Ordinary celestial beings could not possibly cause such a commotion. Could it be that a divine monk is about to break through to become an emperor?"
Wang Hongyuan frowned. "That's possible. It's been ten thousand years, and it's rare for a Venerable to break through to the next realm. This is a good opportunity. Let's take a look!"
Seeing that the Palace Master and the Head Instructor were about to go to the Buddhist sect, Lan Hua quickly flew to their side and said eagerly, "Palace Master, I want to go too!"
Wang Hongyuan nodded and said, "When a Buddhist monk breaks through to a higher realm, there will definitely be many venerable ones watching. It might not be appropriate for someone like you, a True Celestial Being, to do so!"
"However, such an opportunity is rare, and I also want to witness the glory of the path to becoming emperor!"
"Alright, let's go together then. Keep calm!"
Wang Hongyuan grabbed Lan Hua's arm, then used his supernatural powers to suddenly disappear from the spot.
When they reappeared, the two had already left the Pill God Realm, and then suddenly disappeared again.
After dozens of attempts, it finally stopped outside the Buddhist realm.
During this process, Lan Hua felt as if she were traveling through time and space, and her face turned extremely pale every time she stopped.
"Kid, this spatial jump must be tough, right?"
Xie Wujiu appeared beside Lan Hua at some point, and upon seeing Lan Hua's pale face, he teased her a bit.
"Space jump?"
Lan Hua took a deep breath and asked, "What kind of supernatural power is this?"
Xie Wujiu laughed and said, "After becoming a Venerable, as long as you know the location of your destination, you can use the supernatural power of spatial jump to get there quickly, which is many times faster than flying with qi!"
"You're only at the True Rank. Even if someone uses spatial jump to help you, you'll still be under immense pressure from the spatial traversal, which is why you look unwell!"
Lan Hua was stunned by what the Grand Elder said. She had never expected that the Venerable One was so extraordinary that he could use such a spatial jump.
No wonder Zi Yue was able to come to my rescue so quickly when I was ambushed during my tribulation.
Wang Hongyuan suddenly said, "Enough talk, look ahead!"
Before them stood a massive mountain range called Mount Sumeru, where the Buddhist temple was located.
At this moment, the sky above Mount Sumeru was shrouded in the power of thunder and dark light, while the entire Mount Sumeru was radiating golden Buddhist light.
The aura of Buddhism permeated every corner, and even though Lan Hua was outside the Buddhist community, the abundant Buddhist energy still made his mind clear and serene.
At that moment, the Buddha's light began to shine brightly, and clear Buddhist chants could be heard from the mountains.
Every sound was deeply moving and awe-inspiring.
Deng Xian'er asked curiously, "Palace Master, which bald monk from the Buddhist sect wants to become emperor?"
Wang Hongyuan slowly said, "There are only a few powerful monks in Buddhism, but the one most likely to become an emperor is probably Fan Chen!"
As soon as he finished speaking, deep within the Sumeru Mountains, a person slowly rose towards the sky, maintaining a cross-legged sitting posture.
"He truly is a mortal monk of divine stature. Could it be that his Nine Revolutions Buddha Heart cultivation is about to reach its peak?" Xie Wujiu asked.
"It is very possible that the mortal monk was the first person to cultivate the Nine Revolutions of the Buddha Heart, and he was also the first to create the Nine Revolutions of the Buddha Heart Path. He was an unparalleled genius!"
Lan Hua used her Thousand-Mile Eyes, pushing her cultivation to its limit, before she could clearly see the body of the mortal monk.
The mortal monk was radiant with golden light, as if he had cultivated a golden body. He kept chanting and held a string of Buddhist prayer beads in his hand.
Lan Hua asked, "Palace Master, do you think this monk can succeed?"
