# Chapter 412: Reversing Heaven to Reconnect the Broken Path
After Ye Fan charged forward to break into the Four Extremes Secret Realm, a heavenly Dao diagram actually pressed down from above. It was grand and solemn, profound and complex, irresistible, trying to force him back to his original form.
This had long surpassed the scope of heavenly tribulation. It was not thunder, not lightning, but rather innate patterns woven from heaven and earth, representing the will of the Great Dao.
Heaven and earth did not recognize the Sacred Body!
This was a despair-inducing outcome. How could one born between heaven and earth resist? It was impossible to transcend the great realm. As long as one lived in this world, there was almost nothing that could be changed.
Ye Fan refused to accept this. He used his cauldron to strike the heavens, his white robes stained with sacred blood, his physical body resisting the innate patterns. Even his black hair seemed ready to ignite. Golden flames surged all over his body as he fought with all his might.
The Peerless Divine King also refused to yield. His white hair was like snow, his sword-like brows raised upright, his heroic bearing awe-inspiring. He offered up the Li Fire Divine Furnace to seal the heavens, blocking the descent of the Dao diagram, wanting to reverse heaven and reconnect the broken path for the Sacred Body.
Breaking this heavenly Dao diagram, erasing these innate patterns—how could it be easy? This was the tangible manifestation of the Dao, now clashing with the Sacred Body, fundamentally unable to coexist.
"Heaven and earth cannot be defied, the Great Dao cannot be violated. The Sacred Body's path ahead has been severed. No one can reconnect it."
"The ancient sages have long since concluded this. Who can go against the will of heaven and earth? None of this can be changed."
"Not necessarily!" the Peerless Divine King shouted. "The path is not a dead end. Human strength can reverse heaven and reconnect the broken path. Once you cross over, the sky will be vast and the sea wide open!"
At the same time, this expanse of heaven and earth trembled. A terrifying pressure made everyone tremble, wanting to prostrate themselves in worship!
It was like a million volcanoes erupting, like a thousand demon mountains descending, like a boundless starry sky falling. This realm of heaven and earth seemed about to shatter.
The Eternal Universe Furnace awakened!
After some preparation, the Peerless Divine King fixed the sacred furnace forged from Phoenix Blood Red Gold in the void. Phoenix blood rushed to the heavens, red light like sunset clouds, flooding the entire majestic Divine City.
More than half of the cultivators collapsed to the ground, unable to withstand this extreme Dao divine might. It was as if they could feel a few strands of aura from an ancient Great Emperor.
In the night sky, the heavenly Dao diagram was fixed in place, unable to sink down or approach Ye Fan.
The cultivators who could still stand all sucked in cold air. The might of the ancient Great Emperors was truly unimaginable, absolutely capable of reversing heaven. The sacred weapons they left behind were merely awakening, yet they blocked all of this. What would happen if they were actually unleashed?
However, the White-Robed Divine King showed no joy. Instead, a heavy expression appeared on his face. The innate patterns did not disappear, proving that heaven and earth did not recognize this. He could not keep the Eternal Universe Sacred Furnace awakened and maintained forever. In this world, no one except a Great Emperor could do this.
Many cultivators could see that the Sacred Body's broken path was difficult to reconnect. The sacred furnace could protect him for a time, but not for a lifetime. Ye Fan's heaven, his path ahead, had been blocked.
On the other side, the golden little creature's lightning tribulation was infinitely weakened. It had originally been struck all over, covered in injuries, constantly wiping away tears and wailing loudly, but now it easily blocked the heavenly tribulation.
The people of the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty were extremely nervous. They transmitted a message to the Divine Silkworm, telling it not to approach the sacred furnace. If it got implicated, perhaps after the sacred furnace disappeared, an even more terrifying heavenly tribulation would come.
"Cough..." The Peerless Divine King coughed up a mouthful of blood in public, the bloodstains dyeing his white robes red, shocking to behold.
Everyone's heart jumped, especially the various Saint Lords of the Eastern Wasteland. Their gazes flickered, giving rise to strange thoughts. The rumors were true after all. The Peerless Divine King was likely not long for this world.
"Senior, please put away the sacred furnace..." Ye Fan spoke. He had calmed down, wanting to face the Dao diagram in the sky, unafraid of life or death.
The divine king's white robes rustled in the wind. Even though he could look down upon the Eastern Wasteland, how could he contend with heaven? He was filled with a sense of exhaustion, like watching Caiyun Immortal pass away before his eyes—he was powerless to turn things around.
"Hum!"
The void trembled, and the Eternal Universe Sacred Furnace disappeared.
"Boom!"
The heavenly Dao diagram pressed down. Ye Fan's bones snapped, his physical body was pierced through, his divine thoughts shattered. He was almost torn to pieces, but he stood there, not falling down.
People knew that the Sacred Body would likely fall. No one could save him anymore.
Many of the younger generation let out long sighs, their expressions varied. Some were joyful, some took pleasure in his misfortune...
The various Holy Sons and Holy Maidens all faced each other in silence, their expressions strange, clearly their emotions were not calm.
Even the various Saint Lords and the supreme sect masters of the Central Province were moved. Many major powers felt a sense of relief.
"Ye Zi..." Pang Bo cried out.
"Hang in there!" Tu Fei and Li Heishui shouted.
An Miaoyi, whose beauty captivated the world, had the light in her eyes dim. Such a result... was hard for her to accept. She also felt a sense of despair.
"Is it truly a dead end..." Ye Fan's words were calm as he looked at the heavenly Dao diagram covering his body.
"Flash"
Light flashed, and the divine king's Pure Land opened wide. Ye Fan was brought into the Pure Land by the divine king. A spiritual spring babbled, flowers and plants were fragrant, at peace with the world, a scene of harmony.
But still, it could not block the innate patterns. They followed him in, covering Ye Fan again, imprinting themselves into his flesh and blood and divine thoughts.
Ye Fan screamed. Every pore was bleeding. He was almost ground to dust.
"It is not killing your body. It is destroying your Dao foundation. There is still a chance." The divine king shouted.
In the Pure Land, the only divine tree swayed. The White-Robed Divine King sat beneath it, his appearance solemn, sacred and supreme, like a deity.
"Patriarch Divine King, what are you doing?!" The people of the Jiang family shouted anxiously.
Within the Pure Land, flower petals drifted down everywhere, each piece crystalline, fragrant to the nose. The Peerless Divine King appeared in white robes, spotless, elegant as jade, almost like a god.
"Pop"
With a soft sound, a blood flower appeared on the Peerless Divine King's chest, very sorrowful and beautiful. It transformed into a divine radiance that rushed into Ye Fan's body.
"Senior, please don't do this!" Ye Fan shouted, wanting to stop him.
But his body had long been fixed. The heavenly Dao diagram attached to him, he was nearly shattered, unable to move at all.
"Pop"
Another soft sound. Another blood flower flew from the White-Robed Divine King's chest. But his expression was peaceful, like a god holding a flower and smiling, sitting beneath the divine king tree, surrounded by blood-stained crystalline petals.
"That is... the blood of a god!"
"The blood of a god can wash away all sins, purify the Great Dao, and sever karma!"
"The Peerless Divine King wants to use his blood to wash away the heavenly Dao diagram, sever the innate patterns, and use his own strength to reverse heaven and reconnect the broken path for the Sacred Body!"
"But even the Peerless Divine King does not have much blood of a god. The amount contained within him is extremely small!"
"The divine king is about to enter nirvana..."
Everyone was stunned. The people of the Jiang family were even more grief-stricken, wanting to stop all of this, but no one could rush into the Pure Land.
"Divine King, your great kindness is higher than the heavens, but I don't need you to do this. I would rather die immediately!" Ye Fan shouted, very resolute. He could not bear to watch the divine king die.
Flower petals drifted down everywhere, shimmering with crystalline luster. Beneath the divine king tree, that figure in snow-white robes, elegant as jade, became increasingly peaceful and serene, motionless.
"Pop"
Another blood flower bloomed, dyeing the snow-white robes red, flying toward Ye Fan. The divine king was surrounded by crystalline petals, eyes closed, motionless, holding a flower as he sat in meditation.
