Chapter 82: Chaos Emperor (1)
Jun Wunian was the last to enter his own path.
When he placed his hand in the palm of the sculpture, he felt a force wandering through his body, sensing his condition. Suddenly, the dark elemental Shura sprang out uncontrollably and launched an offensive against this force, forcefully driving this force out of Jun Wunian's body.
The statue seemed to tremble, and a path opened on the wall at the same time.
Jun Wunian did not hesitate, and walked over with his feet raised.
Endless darkness poured towards Jun Wunian, and evil bloodthirsty and violent emotions gushed out from a corner of Jun Wunian, rushing straight to Jun Wunian's brain, disturbing Jun Wunian's mind.
The pain eroded every corner of Jun Wunian's body, and Jun Wunian seemed to hear all kinds of cries echoing in his ears, including children, women, and the elderly. Jun Wunian seemed to be crazy, squatting on the ground, holding his head, his face full of pain.
The Bodhi Chain emitted a trace of cool green light, as if it was comforting Jun Wunian. But this limited effect of purifying the heart is very small for Jun Wunian at this moment.
At this time, a hand pressed on Jun Wunian's shoulder, and a powerful force swept through Jun Wunian's whole body with a mysterious force. Shura seemed to be enraged and rebelled, but was quickly suppressed by this powerful force.
The pain gradually dissipated, and Jun Wunian opened his eyes tiredly and looked at the owner of the hand on his shoulder.
"Y-aren't you the person on the sculpture outside?" Although the person on the sculpture did not have a carved face, with his temperament and body shape, Jun Wunian recognized at a glance that the seemingly unpretentious but unfathomable middle-aged man in front of him was the person on the sculpture. "Thank you seniors for saving me, dare to ask seniors what to call them?"
"Kid, everyone else calls me the Emperor of Chaos. The Chaos Emperor smiled kindly, but his expression was a little complicated.
Is the power of Shura going to appear again? Is this the Shura of this generation?
Shura-It's been a long time-
"Emperor?" Jun Wunian thought of something, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Generally speaking, he who climbs the ladder of 100 steps becomes the master. Only those who have climbed above the 95th step of the Elemental Ladder are qualified to be called the "Great Emperor", and the middle-aged man in front of him who looks ordinary is actually a peerless master who has already ascended the 95th Ladder.
"Isn't it strange that you've never heard of me even though I'm an Emperor?" the Chaos Emperor asked with a smile, "I'm already a person from 10,000 years ago, and all you see now is an entity condensed by a trace of my soul." β
"Doesn't it mean that as long as you cultivate to a high level, you can live with the sky?" Jun Wunian thought of what was mentioned in the class.
"Live with the sky?" the Chaos Emperor couldn't help but feel amused, "The lifespan of an ordinary Emperor is only a few hundred years, unless there is some special bloodline, otherwise it will not even have a thousand-year lifespan." β
The words of the Chaos Emperor were different from what he had learned on weekdays, and Jun Wunian couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"What about the life span of the Juggernaut? Can the Juggernaut not die?"
"Juggernaut? There has never been a Juggernaut in this world. Ten thousand years ago, this plane was the plane of Gu Wu. In the past 10,000 years, the ancient martial arts have declined, and the elements have prevailed. But no one has ever been able to climb the ladder of a hundred steps and become the master. There was a hint of yearning in the eyes of the Chaos Emperor, "I used to be infinitely close to the Hundred Steps Heavenly Ladder, but even when I was short of life, I suddenly felt that the Hundred Order Domination and the Ninety-Nine Orders were an insurmountable chasm. LaterβI gave up my last chance for something, came here, and opened up this swamp with my ability, and set a ban on it, and opened up this palace under it. The place was completely enclosed and made a forbidden place. β
"The four forbidden places on the continent are also the four most dangerous places, the Endless Sea in the north, the Extremely Cold Snow Mountain in the south, the Death Swamp in the west, and the Psychedelic Desert in the east. But no one knows, the origin of these four places, actually-" The Chaos Emperor's eyes showed a hint of emotion, and then he said with a dashing voice that saw through the red dust, "I opened up this death swamp in the last ten years of my life, and thus lost the opportunity to become the master forever, but I don't regret it. β
Jun Wunian is puzzled, is there anything more important in this world than achieving masterdom?
The Chaos Emperor saw the incomprehension in Jun Wunian's expression, and did not explain, but lightly recounted his experience.
"I'm a vagabond, I didn't have a lot of talent since I was a child, I awakened the power of the elements by chance when I was a child, it's the earth element, when I was 16 years old, I still didn't climb the twenty-step ladder, everyone looked down on me, I was not convinced, I wanted to become stronger. The Chaos Emperor's eyes gleamed, "I came to the current Death Swamp alone, at that time this was not a Death Swamp, but a forest, I didn't care for my life, I just wanted to come in and hunt some demon beast crystals to increase my elemental power." But as soon as I stepped into here, I was caught. β
"It wasn't the monster that caught me, it was the human. β
"That's a big family, dozens of people came to the forest to hunt demon beasts, led by a son of a family, the first time he came, he had no experience, so he wanted to find a meat shield to open the way. β
"And I'm the unlucky guy who was used as a meat shield. Although the Chaos Emperor's eyes were calm, there was mockery in his tone.
"The target they want to hunt is a kind of monster that lives in forest swamps, the Chaos Octopus. The ink of this demon beast can be used as an elixir to make a breakthrough cultivation, and the body also has a lot of use for mages, and has always been a popular target for mages to hunt. However, due to the scarcity of the quantity, it is very difficult to find. β
"They searched for 7 days and 7 nights, and I was driven by them, like a pathfinder dog, for 7 whole days, and I could not close my eyes for a minute. Just when I was exhausted to the limit, they found their target, a palm-sized juvenile Chaos Octopus. β
"Hehβthe juvenile octopus was weak, and they easily caught the juvenile Chaos Octopus, and they were worried that the news that they had found the Chaos Octopus would leak out, so they discussed killing me and sinking me into the mire, destroying the corpse. β
"When I heard this, I was reluctant to be arrested, but I knew that I was weak and couldn't escape. β
So, I thought, since they are destined to die, it is better to let their wishes be fulfilled before they die. So I snatched the baby Chaos Octopus from them and threw it back into the swamp. The boy who was the leader was so angry that he pierced my heart with a sword and threw me into the swamp. β
