Chapter 226: How is this possible! (Fourth Update)
After a brief pause, Emperor Kun weakly said:
"Come here, I will directly imprint my inheritance into your Primordial Spirit."
Standing still, Qin Chuan sneered:
"Senior, we both know each other’s tricks well. Let’s not play these little games. If I’m not mistaken, the moment I get close, you’d probably swallow me whole, right?"
Even a Martial Emperor, when almost spent and sealed, can still be dangerous as long as there’s a breath left.
"Sigh, not even a trace of trust."
Emperor Kun sighed helplessly.
Qin Chuan smiled:
"Senior, if you continue being dishonest, even after I receive the inheritance, I might still consider turning you into the Pit Emperor."
"Moreover, if I suspect you’re holding out on me, I’ll also turn you into the Pit Emperor."
"Even if I’m just in a bad mood, I’ll turn you into the Pit Emperor."
"You!!!"
Endless cold light shot from Emperor Kun’s eyes, and a few more stone shards fell from his pupils, likely his retinas detaching.
"Senior, these days are different from those of the past. Your glare doesn’t affect me. If you were in your prime and had trained some Pupil Technique, you might have glared me to death, but now..."
With a slight smile, Qin Chuan’s voice turned cold and sharp: "You are in no position to negotiate with me!"
Emperor Kun’s body trembled violently, and the stone skin on his surface continuously cracked and fell off with a clatter.
But eventually, he calmed down.
"Fine, I’ll give you the entire inheritance, just hoping you’ll keep your word and give me a quick end!"
Emperor Kun surrendered.
With no hope for survival, he could only wish for death and hoped to die with some dignity, not leaving a cursed legacy.
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
A subtle thread intertwined at the center of his brows, with no offensive power, quickly sketching in the air before him.
Instantly, a vast amount of text emerged. These characters were quite similar to those of the Nine Realms.
There might have originally been some differences.
But fearing Qin Chuan might be in a ’bad mood’, he took the initiative to translate them into the Nine Realms’ language, making it clear at a glance for Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan swiftly scanned these texts with Divine Thought, copying them into his mind.
Divine Thought acts as both a scanner and a printer, with endless wonders, of course, it requires significant strength in Divine Thought.
And for a Quasi-Emperor, their Divine Thought is more than sufficient!
"’Scripture of the Ten Directions of Earth’!"
"’Kun’s Secret Technique’"
"’Earth Travel Technique’"
"’Earth Vein Body Refining Technique’"
...
This Celestial Eternal Race’s Martial Emperor lived a long time with substantial foundations, so he knew too many things.
Various Divine Techniques and Cultivation Techniques, a total of dozens, each of which could incite a bloody storm once released.
However, most of these things pertain to the Earth Great Dao, with the foundation on the ’Scripture of the Ten Directions of Earth.’
This scripture is profound and extensive, matching the Sun Devouring Emperor Scripture in depth.
Clearly not something Emperor Kun created himself.
After a long time, Emperor Kun seemed to be squeezed dry.
Qin Chuan saw this Martial Emperor even hesitantly wrote out bedroom techniques and felt a tinge of compassion, waving to stop.
"Alright, alright, this will do, consider it a pass, our deal is accomplished."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Kun let out a relieved sigh and then closed his eyes, awaiting death.
As agreed, Qin Chuan would kill him and offer him a quick end.
"Here I come, it might hurt a bit at first, but just endure it."
Qin Chuan said with a smile.
Emperor Kun’s mind was frantic, but he had no choice, he could only keep his eyes shut and await death.
"Ah!!"
Suddenly, Qin Chuan exclaimed.
Emperor Kun opened his eyes.
He was then shocked to see the black-clad youth who was about to kill him flailing and jumping around in a frenzy.
This person’s body... seemed to be leaking, with a massive outpouring of Spiritual Energy from all over, while he desperately tried to plug the leaks to no avail.
Thus, his cultivation level rapidly plummeted!
From Quasi-Emperor Heavenly Third Layer, down to the Second Layer, the First Layer, and dropped to the Realm Emperor Ninth Heavenly Layer, Eighth Layer...
"How could this be, how could this be! The borrowed cultivation supposed to last a day, why is it fading so quickly..."
Qin Chuan was filled with panic, fumbling about.
Borrowed cultivation?
To last a day??
Emperor Kun immediately understood!!!
But he didn’t make a rash move, nor did he gloat over Qin Chuan’s misfortune, as he clearly knew — even a leaking ball is bigger than A.
Soon, he saw with his own eyes that this young man’s cultivation level had fallen continuously until it stabilized at the Fourth Heavenly Layer Saint.
This should have been the young man’s original realm.
Immediately, a surge of shame and anger arose in his heart—he had actually been threatened by a Fourth Heavenly Layer Saint.
Absolutely shameful and pathetic!!
"This... this... sigh!"
Qin Chuan looked at his own hands and feet, seemingly confirming that he had indeed been reverted to his original form, and sighed heavily.
He looked at Emperor Kun again and asked, "Senior, my power has weakened, so how can I kill you now?"
Wow!
Emperor Kun was stunned for a moment and then laughed in anger—you’ve gotten this weak, and you’re still thinking of killing me?!
Don’t you know to take a look at yourself in a puddle of water?
Moreover, even if I stood here, completely defenseless, could you kill me?
Could you break through my skin?
Don’t even talk about the skin; you couldn’t pierce a single membrane!
But before he could speak, Qin Chuan frowned and said, "Senior, why do I feel like you’re mocking me?"
"Believe it or not, even if I have only this little cultivation left, I can still summon many people to dump excrement and urine over you, preserving you in your golden years!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Kun’s expression stiffened—though it was already stiff, it became even more so.
To be precise, he was dumbfounded.
Yeah!
How did he forget this aspect? He can’t move now, and this kid still has the ability to tarnish his reputation forever.
"Uh..."
At this moment, not far off, one of the dozen Celestial Eternal Race spies he knocked out awoke groggily from unconsciousness.
The man slowly sat up, seeming still disoriented, and bleary-eyed, patted his head.
Emperor Kun hurriedly shouted:
"Quick, kill him!"
The Celestial Eternal Race Emperor’s body shivered as if he suddenly woke up and prepared to rise.
However, a shadow flashed by.
"Puff—"
Blood splattered as an Imperial Artifact long spear pierced through the Celestial Eternal Race spy’s head, instantly shredding the Primordial Spirit.
With the long spear in hand, Qin Chuan turned to look at Emperor Kun, sneering, "Senior, it seems your hope is probably going to be dashed..."
"Puchi!"
Qin Chuan withdrew the spear, and blood mixed with white matter gushed out; the man collapsed on the ground, his body still twitching.
The life force of an Emperor was strong; even with the Primordial Spirit dead, the body was not completely dead and could struggle for a long time.
"You... you!!"
Seeing his rescuer die in front of him, Emperor Kun felt an immense sadness and rage, almost going berserk.
"Haha, I just remembered that I must finish them off properly."
Qin Chuan smiled benignly at Emperor Kun, then strode toward the unconscious dozen with the blood-dripping spear.
"Puchi!"
"Puchi!"
"Puchi!"
With a spear for each one, he sent all these still-unconscious Celestial Eternal Race spies to meet their end.
"Ahhhh—"
Seeing this, Emperor Kun’s heart bled, and his hatred for Qin Chuan had reached a point of no return.
"You can just kill me, why do you have to kill them, why must you kill them!!"
As the Martial Emperor of the Celestial Eternal Race, he couldn’t protect his juniors. They came to rescue him but died in front of him.
The endless grief, self-blame, made him almost lose his reason, even triggering a burst of potential from within.
"Boom!!"
A muffled sound came from within him, as if a certain bottleneck broke, akin to heaven and earth being created.
Cultivation breakthrough!
His body began to glow, the oil-running-out, flame-about-to-go-out body showed signs of gradual recovery.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
The altar trembled violently, shining brilliantly, and the pitch-black Cursed Stone Pillar emitted a large number of Curse Runes to suppress him, while the chains revealed runes and began to drain his power.
But even so, his body was still slowly repairing, and this repair was extremely slow yet indeed happening.
According to this trend,
his strength would grow stronger, and the altar and Cursed Stone Pillar’s suppression would weaken. If this continued to change, at most one month, he would break free!
"This... this is impossible!!"
Qin Chuan exclaimed exaggeratedly, as if scared out of his wits, then scrambled out of the abyss pathetically.
Quickly disappearing into the horizon.
In truth, he was laughing heartily inside!
Because he originally planned to release this Martial Emperor while leaving the secret realm, intending to spend some "relying on daddy value" to unlock the seal, but now that the other party could come out on his own, he saved himself the cost.
Once Emperor Kun broke free, he would surely harbor deep hatred toward Qin Xiaozhu, and if he ever encountered Qin Xiaozhu someday, his killing intent would pierce the nine heavens!
