"It's hard to say!" Wang Hongyuan shook his head and continued:
"The Nine Revolutions of Buddha Heart cultivated by the mortal monk can be described as a unique path, which is to sever one's own sins and cultivate the purest Buddha heart."
No one has dared to walk this path for so many years, except for the mortal monk who has persisted.
All told, he has probably cultivated for 20,000 years, and now he has finally ushered in the opportunity to become an emperor.
However, the path to becoming an emperor is incredibly difficult, many times more difficult than breaking through previous realms.
Although opportunities to become an emperor are rare, over tens of thousands of years, quite a few powerful individuals have still come into contact with them.
However, only a handful succeeded; in my memory, only the Blade Emperor and the Sword Emperor are truly remarkable.
"What if it doesn't work?" Lan Hua asked.
"He will die instantly and his cultivation will be extinguished!"
Lan Hua shrank back upon hearing this, "That's terrifying! There's no way out!"
Wang Hongyuan added, "But the chances of a mortal monk becoming an emperor are still very high!"
What do you mean?
Xie Wujiu preemptively said, "Because the Buddhist sect already has an emperor, known as the Buddha Emperor."
On the path from mortal monk to emperor, the Buddha Emperor will certainly not stand idly by and will definitely lend a hand at crucial moments.
Therefore, the Palace Master said that the chances of a mortal monk becoming an emperor are not small, at least much higher than fighting alone!
Lan Hua said, "I see," and then asked, "Where does this Buddha Emperor usually live?"
"It's right here in these mountains!"
Deng Xian'er said, "The Buddha Emperor created the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, and usually hides within it, making it a rare sight for ordinary celestial beings!"
"The Pure Land?"
Lan Hua was greatly surprised, "Is there really a paradise in this world?"
Wang Hongyuan nodded, "Of course there are. The original intention of the Buddha Emperor was to guide mortals or believers to continue living in the Pure Land!"
"That's my understanding!" Wang Hongyuan added.
Lan Hua was speechless. She never expected that the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss truly existed in this world, and the same was true in the Underworld.
Dozens of people appeared one after another outside the Buddhist temple, including venerable figures from Taoism and Confucianism, as well as venerable figures from the sword and saber worlds.
All the venerable ones with a reputation in the Heavenly Realm and who had influence came. Among them, three had an extraordinary aura, unlike those of righteous people.
Lan Hua transmitted her voice to Wang Hongyuan, "Palace Master, who are those three people?"
Wang Hongyuan turned slightly to the side, glanced in the direction Lan Hua was pointing, and said calmly, "Those are the second-in-commands of the Poison Realm, the Evil Realm, and the Demon Realm, known as the Poison Lord, the Evil Lord, and the Demon Lord!"
Lan Hua frowned deeply. "What? How can these demons and monsters ascend to the Heavenly Realm?"
Wang Hongyuan laughed and said, "Although they don't follow the usual path, their temperament is also somewhat different from ordinary people."
However, with so many paths to enlightenment, how can one distinguish which are the true path and which are heretical?
"Young man, to become a celestial being, you must have a broad vision. No matter which path you choose, it is all cultivation!"
"Although many evil cultivators and demonic cultivators have done a lot of bad things in the lower realm, causing people to misunderstand this path, it does not prevent these three paths from being excellent."
Otherwise, how could powerful figures like the Poison Emperor, the Evil Emperor, and the Demon Emperor have emerged? As the saying goes, existence is its own justification, don't you think?
Lan Hua nodded. The Palace Master's words had given him much insight and broadened his perspective considerably.
"Palace Master, the Poison Emperor, Evil Emperor, and Demon Emperor you just mentioned, are these three emperors the ones who broke through Xuan Yu?"
Wang Hongyuan sighed, "Indeed, alas, although he has become emperor, his temperament is still unpredictable, harming the people of this realm!"
Lan Hua asked curiously, "Then do you know why the four emperors fought each other? Palace Master Wei told me it was because of the opportunity to become an emperor!"
"More or less!"
Wang Hongyuan nodded and said, "According to the Palace Master, the Four Emperors somehow got the news that there was an Emperor Pill in the Desolate Continent of the Lower Realm, which was left by the Pill Emperor!"
"It is said that the reason why the Pill Emperor was able to become an emperor was because he refined the Emperor Pill, and he refined two of them in total."
After becoming an emperor, the Pill Emperor hid the remaining Emperor Pill in the Pill God Palace on the Desolate Continent!
Lan Hua knew that the Palace Master Wang Hongyuan mentioned was the main Palace Master of the Pill God Palace, who was also the current Pill Emperor and the head of the Pill Dao.
"How come there's a Pill God Temple on the Yuhuang Continent too?"
"yes!"
Wang Hongyuan sighed, "The Pill God Palace on the Yuhuang Continent is a branch palace, far inferior to the Pill God Palace on the Xuanhuang Continent."
Since the Desolate Continent became a continent of death, no one has mentioned it anymore, so it's normal that you don't know it.
"And then what happened?" Lan Hua asked.
"The four emperors descended to the mortal realm one after another, each wanting to be the first to obtain the Emperor Pill, which led to a conflict and a fierce fight."
This battle lasted for nearly ten days, tearing several large holes through the Yuhuang Continent, nearly shattering it, and leaving the four emperors severely injured.
"Is there really an Imperial Pill hidden in the Pill God Temple on the Yuhuang Continent?" Lan Hua asked.
"Hmph, what kind of imperial pill is this? It's just an ordinary pill, yet it has attracted four emperors to fight over it. How laughable!"
After hearing all this, Lan Hua felt that something was not right.
"Palace Master, the power of the Four Emperors is terrifying; they are almost capable of destroying the entire world."
But why was only the Yuhuang Continent destroyed, while the Xuanhuang Continent remained unscathed?
Wang Hongyuan's eyes lit up, revealing a hint of approval.
"Kid, you've hit the nail on the head!"
"Although the four emperors fought fiercely, they were not without consideration, because there has always been an emperor in Xuanyu."
"That emperor had been protecting the Xuanhuang Continent. After the four emperors discovered that the so-called Emperor Pill was worthless and left in anger, he used his great divine power to seal the Xuanhuang Continent."
Lan Hua was greatly surprised, never expecting that there had always been an emperor in Xuan Yu.
Thinking back to the time in the Liutao Great Swamp, the first blessed land, there was an unparalleled expert from the Heavenly Domain who made a move, and there was also a terrifying expert from the Xuanyu side who made a move.
Those present were speculating whether the Emperor had entered the game.
Looking back now, Lan Hua realizes that the person who made the move in Xuan Yu's eyes was indeed an emperor.
"Who is that emperor?" Lan Hua asked.
"The Human Emperor!"
Lan Hua exclaimed, "Oh, there's even a Human Emperor? That's quite a title!"
With a serious expression, Lan Hua guessed, "I suspect that someone has set up a conspiracy in the Four Emperors War. It's too obvious!"
"yes!"
Wang Hongyuan said, "But who is the conspirator? If it weren't for the Pill Emperor's intervention, stopping the Sword Emperor and the Blade Emperor, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Lan Hua thought about the forces in the Heavenly Domain carefully. Among the many forces, only the Owl Sect was good at playing tricks.
"Could this be a setup by the Emperor of the Underworld?"
Wang Hongyuan shook his head, "That's beyond my knowledge. Nobody knows what happened to the four emperors afterward!"
The conversation was interrupted, and Lan Hua felt a shock in her heart. She suddenly learned too many important things and was not able to recover for a while.
Outside the Buddhist temple, more and more powerful figures appeared. Not only were all the Venerables present, but even the Saint-level Celestials had arrived.
The mortal monk had already flown into the air.
A burst of golden light erupted from his body, transforming into a massive pillar of light that shot into the thunder in the sky, stirring up a huge vortex.
Just then, a black aura emanated from the mortal monk, standing out starkly against the surrounding Buddhist light.
"What is that?" Lan Hua asked curiously.
