Zhao Tianya couldn’t understand Ye Fan, and likewise, Tantai Wanrong couldn’t understand Zhao Tianya.

The relationship between Ye Fan and Zhao Tianya was complicated and unclear. Tantai Wanrong found herself unable to explain her relationship with Ye Fan either. Both women had their own persistence and stubbornness regarding Ye Fan, and presently, Ye Fan felt at a loss when dealing with these two mature and charming women. He had tried several times to resolve his relationships with Zhao Tianya and Tantai Wanrong, but all efforts ended in failure.

In short, Ye Fan was temporarily unable to win over Tantai Wanrong or reconcile with Zhao Tianya.

At this time, many people had learned of Ye Fan’s celestial ascension. Whether they held good or ill will towards him, they all tried to forget one thing: after Ye Fan left the Pan Gu mystic realm, those mysterious forces began to stir. Even Li Zhaojun intended to take action. To this day, Li Zhaojun had not fully confessed to Ye Fan about her plans. The power that once tempted Li Zhaojun continued to exploit her weaknesses, attempting to disrupt the peace of Ye Fan’s rear courtyard.

At this moment, Ye Fan had finally completed his final ascent into the celestial realm.

Or rather, he had entered a world he had never visited before, which seemed to him very peaceful. Upon opening his eyes, he was greeted by many white lights, making him feel like he had entered paradise. He saw halos and points of light all around, almost expecting angels to appear.

"Is this the celestial realm? Why does it differ from what I imagined?" Ye Fan was somewhat surprised. When he opened his eyes, the world he saw was peculiar, seemingly composed solely of clouds and white halos. This place looked like the celestial palace among the clouds, with vapor shrouded in a powerful force of Spiritual Energy that prevented Ye Fan from exploring further.

Ye Fan pondered, "Legend has it that a powerful force in the celestial realm obstructs one’s Spiritual Energy. It seems this is the place, but why can’t I detect other beings here? Could it be that aside from humans above the ascended level, there are no other creatures in the celestial realm?"

Regarding the celestial realm, Ye Fan was almost entirely ignorant, and now he could not receive any external reinforcement. He was fighting alone, understanding that unless he found the true exit to the celestial realm, he would remain trapped here. Even though he could easily defeat people from the celestial realm in the human world, he was now in their territory, making it difficult to reverse and open the celestial gate. Additionally, he might not even be a match for the battle-hardened celestial beings here.

"I know nothing about the celestial realm. I just arrived here; how can I exit smoothly?" Ye Fan was somewhat concerned. "I am unsure of the extent of power held by the celestial beings here. If they can mobilize a powerful array, they might trap me! Am I currently facing a powerful array?"

As Ye Fan thought, he decided to first explore the path ahead instead of staying in one place.

However, he realized that his Spiritual Energy seemed almost sealed off, and he could only use the elemental forces within his body. When he tried to awaken the six small crystals within him, he found that even this connection had been severed.

"What’s happening?" Ye Fan suddenly grew worried. "Did I enter the celestial realm without the six small crystals? This would have a significant impact on me. Without them, and with my body’s powers sealed, how can I battle the celestial beings? Can I rely on my immortality to fight them?"

At this point, Ye Fan could not even be sure if he was trapped in a powerful array. He could only continue to explore the surrounding space, using a force to impact it. Unfortunately, he found that a strong backlash seemed to exist in the surrounding space, and with each attack, this backlash forced itself back onto him...

...

...

In reality, Ye Fan was currently trapped within a powerful array.

All the celestial beings in the realm had formed a powerful development to combat this outsider, whom they regarded as the most dangerous man, Ye Fan.

There were several thousand celestial beings below the rank of celestial duke who came together to form this powerful array. Utilizing the unique Spiritual Energy of the celestial realm, they sealed off all the power within Ye Fan’s body. While they couldn’t defeat or kill Ye Fan, they successfully trapped him in a nonexistent space, a part of the celestial realm where they believed Ye Fan had no chance of escaping.

Several celestial dukes used the most stringent methods to imprison Ye Fan. They had to focus entirely and couldn’t be distracted, because Ye Fan’s power was so overwhelming. Each time Ye Fan attacked, many celestial beings got injured, yet they had to rely on sheer willpower to confine him, causing the celestial beings significant suffering.

"Try a little harder!" A female celestial, who hadn’t appeared before Ye Fan, continued to relay messages, ensuring that thousands of celestial beings heard her words. "If we can completely bind him and extinguish his will, he will no longer be a threat. Otherwise, the three realms will become his world, and we’ll have to live under his will!"

The celestial beings continued to hold their breath and concentrate their energy. They formed a powerful array in front of Ye Fan, continually trapping him while enduring his relentless attacks.

...

...

In the human realm, within the Left Domain galaxy, Xi He also tried to pass through the celestial gate and enter the celestial realm.

After dozens of attempts, Xi He had to temporarily abandon her efforts. The celestial gate was indeed closed, and she couldn’t pass through it to help Ye Fan. To her, this was not unexpected because she had already realized that the gate’s reverse closure meant Ye Fan had to fight alone in the celestial realm for the time being.

"Do you still intend to help Ye Fan?" Xuan Nu appeared before Xi He again. She looked at Xi He as if trying to use her own will to make Xi He completely abandon her plans to help Ye Fan.

Xi He coldly scrutinized Xuan Nu, "You helped the celestial beings to close that passage?"

"Haha, what makes you think it was me?" Xuan Nu replied smugly.

"No one else but you possesses such powerful spatial abilities. Xuan Nu, I must remind you that what you’re doing is self-destructive. By helping those celestial beings, you’re opposing the master, and when he returns, he won’t spare you!" Xi He said.

Xuan Nu, like a roaring lion, retorted, "I don’t expect his forgiveness. After he returns, whatever he wants to do, I accept it. At worst, he’ll destroy me completely, leaving me truly obliterated!"
