C720 Confronting the will of the Immortal Emperor
Although Xiao Chen's guess was correct, it was completely different from what he felt when he heard the confirmation from his mouth. He was now incredibly shocked. Among the Ten Great Divine Generals of the Immortal Emperor, there was one that did not perish; he was still alive.
Moreover, he had become his own servant.
It was Bai Ze!
So it turned out that Bai Ze was also a Divine General.
No wonder when he was in the drying corpse domain, he said that he followed the Immortal Emperor back then, so that was the case …
Xiao Chen's eyes turned dark.
He also wanted to know the reason.
Why did the Immortal Emperor Nine Godly Generals, and even the boy beside him, die in battle? Bai Ze was also a Divine General, so why didn't he die?!
Did he betray the Immortal Emperor?
However, if he had truly betrayed the Immortal Emperor and escaped alone, why would he still be so proud when mentioning the Immortal Emperor? It was as though that was the most honorable thing that he had ever done in his entire life.
"Senior, can you tell me what happened that year? I also want to know." Xiao Chen looked at the old man in white. There was doubt in his eyes, and the old man in white was smiling.
"You've met Bai Ze?"
Xiao Chen looked at the old man and finally nodded his head.
"En, I've seen him, and he also has some connections. I went deep into the realm of dried corpses to hunt for spirit pearls to cultivate, and I met him. It was an elder of mine who protected me, and he even made Bai Ze my retainer."
Weng! *
As the sound of his voice faded, the white-robed old man's countenance turned grim.
He looked at Xiao Chen with a sharp gaze. When he looked at Xiao Chen, his eyes flashed as though he wanted to cut Xiao Chen into pieces.
Xiao Chen could not help but take a step back.
"Senior …"
The white-clothed old man stared at Xiao Chen as his voice slowly transmitted out, "You said that your elders subdued Bai Ze and made him your servant?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
"Not all of them were subdued, so it should be considered an equal exchange. Senior Bai Ze protected me while my seniors helped him solve the problem of cultivation and cultivation. That's why Senior Bai Ze agreed. Senior, do you think it's inappropriate?"
The old man in white snorted coldly.
"Of course not! Bai Ze is the Divine General of the Immortal Emperor, but he actually became someone else's retainer! Isn't that betraying the Immortal Emperor?!"
However, Xiao Chen was still smiling at this.
"But, the Immortal Emperor has already been dead for many years."
Indeed, the Immortal Emperor had already perished many years ago. Even he and the other nine Godly Generals had died in battle. Now, all that was left was a remnant will that protected the Immortal Emperor's final will.
Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but smile.
His smile contained a hint of sadness.
"Senior, since Bai Ze didn't die in battle, then there must be a huge reason. Moreover, you all didn't resent him either, it's obvious that his existence doesn't mean that she betrayed the Immortal Emperor. Moreover, the Immortal Emperor wanted him to live, so what was he waiting for? Am I right?"
The old man did not say anything as Xiao Chen spoke.
It seemed as though he had tacitly agreed.
Not only that, your existences are merely waiting for a fated person to pass on the legacy left behind by an Immortal Emperor. I have already reached the final stage, and as long as I pass this final test, I will have the qualification to do so. In other words, I am the successor of the Immortal Emperor and your new master.
Xiao Chen's words rendered the white-clothed old man speechless.
Indeed, Xiao Chen was right.
However, they had followed the Immortal Emperor for so many years. Thus, it was easier said than done. At this moment, their hearts were filled with conflict as well.
"And if you fail?"
The white-clothed old man looked at Xiao Chen with a bright gaze.
Although Xiao Chen had said many things, it was not as though he would be able to pass this final trial easily. If he failed, then he would not be the successor to the Immortal Emperor.
"I have faith in myself!"
Xiao Chen smiled indifferently. He had already reached the final step. Of course, he could not accept that he had failed. Furthermore, he could not possibly fail. This was his confidence.
Young man, you are quite arrogant. Although your cultivation is not high, it is your ability to be the first to come to this place. However, don't be happy too early.
Xiao Chen did not deny the words of the white-clothed old man. Since he had the courage to take that step forward to face the final test, he had already made ample preparations. Regardless of what happened next, he would not turn back.
Senior, if I really pass the test, I want to hear about the past of the Immortal Emperor. I really look forward to hearing about him, and since I've become his successor, it's only right that I understand him. If I fail, I will withdraw, but, Senior Bai Ze will still follow me, and I hope senior will forgive me.
The white-clothed old man nodded slightly.
Things had already gotten to this point. What more could he say? Even if he disagreed, it wouldn't change anything because he had already fallen. He could not stop it at all, and could only watch on helplessly.
"The final test. What you want to challenge is not me, the true will of the Immortal Emperor. Only by obtaining the approval of the Immortal Emperor will you be able to pass."
"Hiss …"
Xiao Chen could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Fighting against the will of the Immortal Emperor.
Indeed, the final test was so difficult.
Seeing Xiao Chen's expression, the old man in white could not help but smile, "Scared?"
"I'm scared!"
Xiao Chen said without any hesitation, "However, I'm afraid that I will have to make a breakthrough too. I have confidence in myself. Senior, you can begin!"
The white-clothed old man did not say anything else. He retreated, and only Xiao Chen remained in this area. In the next moment, a majestic figure descended from the sky. That figure was covered in a resplendent immortal light; it was incomparably powerful.
Pressuring heaven and earth, Immortal Emperor Expert!
Xiao Chen's eyes trembled in shock.
"So this is the Immortal Emperor Expert, so powerful!" Xiao Chen was astonished. Other than the ancestor, this was the first time he had come into contact with the Immortal Emperor Expert at such a close range.
"When can I step into the Immortal Emperor Realm and suppress a region?!" Xiao Chen was currently at the seventh level of the Immortal King Realm. Although it looked like he was only three levels away from the Immortal Emperor Realm, he knew that there was still a huge gap between him and the Immortal Emperor.
Rumble rumble rumble!
Heaven and Earth shook, and massive pressure bore down.
Xiao Chen let out a muffled grunt, his face turning slightly pale.
A strong pressure was stronger than all the pressure he felt when he climbed the stairs before. Moreover, it was more than doubled. This pressure gave Xiao Chen an incomparable feeling.
This feeling was very terrifying.
It was as if he could be killed here at any moment.
Swoosh swoosh!
Xiao Chen's clothes were torn apart. After that, his body began to crack open, and fresh blood spurted out. The pain caused Xiao Chen's complexion to turn incredibly grave. He used his immortal energy to resist, but in the face of the pressure from the Immortal Emperor, his strength was like a firefly fighting against the splendor of the bright moon.
It was so insignificant.
"So powerful!"
Xiao Chen's body absorbed and spat out Buddhist light. Endless amounts of the power of reincarnation flowed through his body. The Nirvana Pangu and Phoenix Meridians circulated endlessly, defending Xiao Chen from the pressure of the Immortal Emperor.
Even so, Xiao Chen still felt incomparable pain.
It was simply impossible for an immortal king to contend against an immortal emperor.
However, this was a test.
Not absolutely, then he had a chance.
If he had the chance, he wouldn't give it up!
"Xiao Chen, how about I help you? If you resist too much, you might lose here." Bai Chenfeng's voice sounded out slowly. He was also worried about Xiao Chen. Before the Immortal Emperor Will made a move, it had already pressured Xiao Chen to this state.
Perhaps Xiao Chen would not be able to withstand it in the future.
"No!"
Xiao Chen refused.
"Ancestor, I want to do it myself. I can do it myself, but I have done it myself. I did not rely on you to grow, and this time is no exception."
BOOM!
As the sound of his voice faded, Xiao Chen pushed his strength to the limits.
He was afraid that the pressure from the Immortal Emperor was too strong and Xiao Chen was not able to endure it. However, Xiao Chen wanted to challenge it by himself, step by step. Since this was an inheritance, he would not need external help.
With his focus, when would he be able to grow?
"Ah …"
Xiao Chen roared angrily; his body had the sound of bones cracking.
The pressure from the Immortal Emperor caused Xiao Chen's entire body to be covered in blood. The current him was a bloody person; he was in a miserable state. However, Xiao Chen was still standing upright and did not fear him at all.
"You're too weak. Go back."
There was a sigh from the Immortal Emperor's will. It was the voice of the Immortal Emperor. At this moment, he rejected Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen was very determined.
"Weak?" I don't think so! "
His voice was hoarse as he said with great difficulty, "You say that I am weak, but for all the experts of the world, who was the strong from the very beginning? Are you a natural Immortal Emperor? You are not, you also came from the weak, if you can, why can't I?! "0
Every word he said was like a gem.
The will of the Immortal Emperor did not speak. Xiao Chen's eyes were already bloodshot. That was the situation when he was under extreme pressure. He breathed heavily, and his chest was burning in pain.
"Puff …"
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
He looked at the Immortal Emperor's will and slowly said, "It is because I am still weak and have no strength that I must become strong. That is why I must persevere. If I am an expert, why would I still need to inherit your power?!"
"Hehe, this kid is ambitious!"
The Immortal Emperor spoke with a hint of praise in his voice.
"Although you're right, you are still far from enough to become my successor. You need to meet my requirements to do so, do you know that?" As he spoke, the winds and clouds surged, thunder rumbled, and the Immortal Emperor's single word caused the constellations to move. It was extremely violent.
At this moment, there was already a dense mist of blood under Xiao Chen's feet, but he still did not move. The current Xiao Chen, with the exception of his eyes, was completely drenched in blood.
His bloodshot eyes were still bright.
"Bring it on, I'll accept it all!"
