Chapter 3453: An Existence More Scary Than the Ghost Emperor
"Ghost Emperor? Why are you asking about him?" The old man sweeping the floor put down the broom in his hand and looked at Long Chen.
Long Chen didn't hide anything, and directly told the old man what happened in the Seventh Branch's Heavenly Tribulation, and also told the old man about the ghost ship.
The old man pondered for a moment and said: "The Ghost Emperor is the master of the ghost realm. He controls all living beings in the ghost realm and is also the strongest existence in the ghost realm.
The origin of the Ghost Emperor is a mystery. Some people say that he is a creature from the chaotic era, who gradually cultivated and eventually became the master of the ghost way.
Some people also say that he is the product of the resentment condensed after the death of all living things for hundreds of millions of years. It has the same lifespan as heaven and earth and is immortal."
Long Chen was startled. This was the first time he heard of such a terrifying existence. A species in the age of chaos? Immortal?
"Why would such a terrifying existence leave a mark on me?" Long Chen said in surprise.
"Because he met a more terrifying existence, fought with it, shattered the flesh god, cut off the soul, and even the immortal existence was severely damaged.
In order to quickly cultivate his body, his men would secretly identify some powerful geniuses and plant the Ghost Emperor's mark on them.
When these geniuses grow to a certain level and are devoured by inner demons, they will become the puppets of the Ghost Emperor, and eventually return to the ghost world and become part of the Ghost Emperor's body.
What's different from others is that they were all seeded, but you are the ghost emperor's mark condensed into the cause and effect." The old man replied.
"Being shattered by a more terrifying existence and cutting off the soul?" Long Chen's heart was beating wildly. What existence can defeat the master of ghosts?
"You are so smart, you should be able to guess it." The old man said with a slight smile.
Suddenly, Long Chen felt like his breathing had stopped, and he said with a horrified look on his face: "Could it be..."
"Causation is sometimes very mysterious and no one can explain it clearly. Although the Ghost Emperor is said to be immortal, it is not absolute.
If the Lord of Nine Stars had a Chaos Weapon in his hands back then, the Ghost Emperor would have perished. In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the only thing that could kill him was the most primitive power of Chaos in the Chaos Artifact.
The Lord of Nine Stars made him so angry that after that battle, he never made a sound again.
And you, as a descendant of the Nine Stars, bumped into the ghost ship with the mark of his soul, and finally formed the mark of the Ghost Emperor.
But you don't have to worry, he won't find you until you reach the realm of the King of Kai, because there are too many Marks of the Ghost Emperor, and unless he closes the net uniformly, you will always be safe," the old man said.
Only then did Long Chen realize how terrifying the master of the Nine-Star Hegemon Body Technique was. Even the master of the ghost realm was beheaded by him. Long Chen's heart could not calm down for a long time.
"Senior, the Lord of Nine Stars is so powerful, why did he still fall?" Long Chen couldn't help but ask.
"You, the descendant of Nine Stars, need to understand this for yourself. I can only tell you that the most dangerous thing in the world is the human heart." After the old man finished speaking, he continued to sweep his head and sweep the floor.
Long Chen knew that the old man didn't want to continue talking. Obviously, the old man knew a lot, but there was only so much he could say.
After practicing all the way to this day, Long Chen also knows how terrifying this so-called cause and effect is. People need to be careful with their words and deeds, otherwise they will easily harm others if they don't keep their mouth shut. Therefore, even the strong must have some knowledge.
Awe.
After a conversation with the old man, Long Chen realized how huge and terrifying this world is.
However, I am also a little uneasy in my heart. The Lord of Nine Stars is the person who almost beat the Ghost Emperor to death. However, he has modified the technique he created. The road ahead is long and he can only find a way to pave it forward on his own. Under this pressure, he cannot
Use language to describe it.
At the same time, based on the bits and pieces in my mind and the clues I have experienced, I can infer that the road ahead is destined to be uneventful.
However, the huge pressure actually inspired Long Chen's boundless fighting spirit.
"You are born like an ant, you should have the ambition of a swan. Your life is thinner than paper, so you should have an unyielding heart. My life, Long Chen, is to be controlled by myself. I want to walk my own path." Long Chen tightened his grip.
Fist, he knew that he was involved in a huge whirlpool and was moving towards the center of the whirlpool.
He still has time now, he wants to make himself stronger and accumulate more trump cards to face future challenges.
Returning to the Seventh Branch, everyone except Bai Shishi was in a coma. The elders of the academy were extremely busy these days, constantly feeding these disciples medicine, which was all requiem liquid.
Because many people endured tremendous pain, their bodies managed to hold on, but their souls couldn't bear it and went crazy.
During the Requiem Night, they were allowed to repair their injured souls in their sleep. At the same time, the elders used soul magic to enter their dreams and guide their souls to prevent them from developing inner demons.
Long Chen returned to his room and took out five lotus seeds of the magic eye water lily. This was the fourth level magic eye water lily, which was the same level as Long Chen.
He took out the alchemy furnace and carefully refined it into medicinal powder. Long Chen did not dare to use the Yaoyue Furnace, but used the Melting Moon Star Furnace because the Melting Moon Star Furnace had more experience in alchemy making, was more reliable, and had a higher failure rate.
Low.
Long Chen wants to refine the Purple Que Pill this time. These materials alone are priceless, especially the elixirs produced by some monsters and spirit beasts cannot be cultivated, so Long Chen can't be lavish and wasteful like before.
.
The eyes of the devil dragon, the fangs of the blood bat, the gallbladder of the deep-sea snake, the essence and blood of the sable... they are all precious medicines that are constantly being extracted. Long Chen is concentrating on it and does not dare to be careless.
It took Long Chen a whole day just to purify the medicine. Because his mental power was too concentrated and the pressure was too great, Long Chen rested for an hour before starting to refine the pill.
The five-color powder of the magic eye water lily is the first to be put into the alchemy furnace. It is the main medicine, and all medicines must be under its control.
When the flames rose, the precious medicine blended into the alchemy furnace, and colorful clouds appeared in the alchemy furnace. At the same time, the runes on the alchemy furnace began to light up automatically.
"What a terrifying power. The alchemy furnace's self-defense runes were forced to activate." Long Chen's heart froze. This was just the beginning. The alchemy furnace actually became alert and automatically activated its defense.
As the medicinal powder blended into the alchemy furnace little by little, the colorful glow began to become restless and constantly collided with the alchemy furnace.
Fortunately, this alchemy furnace is not an ordinary alchemy furnace, but a Tianye furnace. If it were the ordinary royal alchemy furnace from before, Long Chen might have to give up.
This has just begun, and there is already such a big movement. If the alchemy furnace is not strong enough, it will not be able to withstand it.
"Rumble..."
When nearly a thousand kinds of elixirs were put into the elixir furnace, you can see that the five-color glow in the elixir furnace condensed into five torrents, like giant dragons rolling and colliding madly, and the elixir furnace made a roaring and exploding sound.
"Now we have something to play with."
Long Chen felt the overwhelming power in the alchemy furnace. While he was nervous, he also became more and more excited.
