The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2608 - 2597: Is There Eternal Life in This World?

After operating the Eternal Codex’s method.

Dots of blue light radiated from Ye Chenfeng’s body, and the meridians throughout his body remained unbearably painful.

The original three Spiritual Qi Rivers within his meridians became increasingly chaotic, and their turbulent trend was completely beyond his control.

The power that entered his meridians continued to press against the other three Spiritual Qi Rivers, almost as if it was a relentless force that couldn’t peacefully coexist with them.

Originally, Ye Chenfeng thought that after operating the Eternal Codex’s method, the Spiritual Qi Rivers in his meridians would calm down.

But contrary to what Ye Chenfeng imagined, after operating the method, more power drilled into his meridians, as if trying to force the other three Spiritual Qi Rivers out.

The severe pain in all his meridians grew more intense; indeed, trying to cultivate four Supreme Techniques simultaneously was extremely difficult, even harder than ascending to the heavens. Yet Ye Chenfeng had already taken this step, and there was no turning back, so he could only continue to operate the Eternal Codex’s method.

As time slowly passed.

Ye Chenfeng clenched his teeth tighter and tighter, and thick veins popped out on his forehead, while his face was filled with an expression of extreme pain.

The more the Eternal Codex’s method was operated, the more pain filled his body, and the three Spiritual Qi Rivers in his meridians refused to give way to the invading power, unwilling to back down even half a step.

Ye Chenfeng’s brow furrowed deeper, and blood began to trickle out from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, who were meditating, became worried as they witnessed this scene, always thinking that Ye Chenfeng was cultivating two techniques simultaneously.

"Lan Ruo-jie, his condition doesn’t look optimistic, could he be on the verge of demonic possession?" Fang Duo’er asked softly.

Song Lanruo shook her head, "Cultivating two techniques simultaneously is incredibly difficult. It’s natural for him to be in this condition, and whether he can overcome it depends entirely on himself. If he indeed can cultivate two techniques simultaneously, his future achievements will definitely soar."

Fang Duo’er nodded, "This time he’s gained the Eternal Emperor’s legacy, which definitely belongs to the Supreme Techniques. If he can withstand it, there will be a place for him in the Upper World in the future. Talents from our Middle Realm can’t even compare to him."

"Lan Ruo-jie, who do you think he really is?"

Song Lanruo replied, "With strength at the Initial Stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, judging by his aura, he’s likely not older than us, yet such a talent perhaps can’t even be groomed in the Upper World?"

When Song Lanruo finished speaking.

"Ah!"

Ye Chenfeng let out a hoarse roar, startling Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er.

Blood oozed from every pore of Ye Chenfeng’s body, making him look exceptionally terrifying at that moment.

Ye Chenfeng had always been in disguise. In such a situation, the disguise on his face started to fade, soon revealing his true appearance.

Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng’s true appearance, Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er were taken aback. Fang Duo’er wondered, "He was in disguise? His face looks somewhat familiar."

Song Lanruo reminded, "The Upper World’s Hes’ wanted poster."

Fang Duo’er suddenly understood, "He’s one of the people the Hes in the Upper World want to apprehend. I’m even more curious about him now—why did he cause the Hes in the Upper World to issue a wanted notice?"

Song Lanruo frowned and said, "Our lives are tied to him now. We can only rely on him to survive. This isn’t the time to dwell on these things."

Fang Duo’er felt dejected, "Lan Ruo-jie, the person in the coffin outside is definitely a master from the Chaos Era. Even if this guy has inherited the Eternal Emperor’s legacy, do you think he can defeat the person in the coffin outside?"

Song Lanruo forced a bitter smile, "No matter what, he has to first overcome the challenge he faces now, otherwise, he truly might become possessed."

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er couldn’t assist Ye Chenfeng in any way.

Meanwhile, Ye Chenfeng, from whose every pore blood was emerging, looked utterly in pain.

Suddenly.

Ye Chenfeng felt his consciousness enter a peculiar space, which was enveloped in a white, misty haze.

In this space, there was a large tree on the right side, with a stone table and two stone chairs underneath it.

Besides that, there was nothing particularly notable.

Ye Chenfeng began to survey the rest of the area and when his gaze returned to the direction of the stone table.

Someone was now sitting at the stone table.

It was a middle-aged man with long, flowing robes, and a jug of wine appeared on the stone table, which he drank without acknowledging Ye Chenfeng’s presence.

Ye Chenfeng squinted slightly, recognizing that the Eternal Emperor’s corpse had previously restored its living appearance. The middle-aged man now before him looked identical to the Eternal Emperor.

Ye Chenfeng clearly understood he had entered some sort of illusion, possibly to find an answer for cultivating four techniques simultaneously here.

Approaching the stone table, Ye Chenfeng sat down opposite the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man finally looked up at Ye Chenfeng, "Did I invite you to sit down? What an impudent brat."

Ye Chenfeng replied confidently, "You didn’t tell me I couldn’t sit, either. You looked lonely, so I came to keep you company with a drink."

The middle-aged man examined Ye Chenfeng with interest, "Cultivating the Eternal Codex I, the Eternal Emperor, created isn’t easy at all. Do you believe in eternal life in this world?"

"All things in this world have a finite lifespan. Whether they’re unparalleled powerhouses or mighty beasts, their lives must ultimately come to an end, and everything in this world cannot escape death."

The middle-aged man waved his hand.

A small grass sprouted beside Ye Chenfeng, growing and dying in an instant before his eyes.

Following this.

The middle-aged man waved his hand again.

The entirety of the white, misty space transformed instantly.

A myriad of things appeared around them, including newborn babies crying loudly and newly born beasts.

Ye Chenfeng observed these beings growing until they all faced death.

No one could escape death!

Ye Chenfeng sank into an incredibly anxious state, as if he had fallen into some sort of enchantment.

The middle-aged man laughed, "I’ll ask you once more, is there eternal life in this world?"

Ye Chenfeng hesitated to answer, sitting dazedly across from the middle-aged man, while the middle-aged man continued to drink leisurely.
