The beginning of the game "The King of Heroes"

Chapter 701 The Ladder to the Immortal Emperor Domain, The Corpse Immortal Emperor
It was as if someone from the past was communicating with the two of them through this stone tablet.

"What's going on?" Shi Hao stared at the scene, silently deducing, "Someone from the past tried to communicate with us?!"

Qin Tian seemed to be deep in thought. Only the luminous side of that Corpse Immortal Emperor could display such profound mysteries that even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor couldn't comprehend.

He opened his eyes and gazed into the past, where he could clearly see that, in the distant past, a burly man, his own blood stained, had written his grievances and resentments on this wall.

Injustice! Injustice! Injustice! Injustice!

Qin Tian couldn't help but feel saddened by his plight.

The Corpse Immortal Emperor's sins were unforgivable, but Emperor Bone Brother was simply unlucky.

Emperor Bone was diligently cultivating at home when suddenly the sky cracked open, and a drop of dark true blood fell and corrupted him. His hard-won breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor body was also taken over by someone else, and he became a subordinate personality.

But that's alright. As long as he returns, recovers, and regains his status as an Immortal Emperor, he will eventually regain control of his body.

After all, he was the true Corpse Immortal Emperor.

But who would have thought that after countless eras, he finally awoke and returned, reshaping his immortal emperor body, only to encounter a ruthless man who ganged up on him and beat him to death, scattering his ashes in the Boundary Sea and spreading them throughout the chaotic ancient space-time.

Anyone who hears of this tragedy would shed tears and mourn three times.

"Ignore him, let's continue!"

"Don't go any further, get out of here immediately!" At this moment, the rotten wooden box suddenly emitted billions of rays of light, warning Qin Tian and the other person.

The two exchanged a glance, ignoring the rotten wooden box's advice, and continued forward, arriving at the ultimate dark place.

The dark matter here was even denser, gushing outwards in a terrifying manner, yet they could sense the Emperor's runes surging within this endless darkness.

"The secrets lie within the end of the road; no wonder they claim this place holds the opportunity to become an emperor!" Qin Tian and Shi Hao attempted to exchange their own essence for the Immortal Emperor's Scripture.

This Taoist script is incredibly complex, constructed from countless mysterious runes, and contains astonishing profound mysteries.

Clearly, the Corpse Immortal Emperor had not been sleeping all these years of self-imprisonment. His corrupted dark primordial spirit, at the Immortal Emperor level, governed all past Dao techniques and sublimated them to the highest level.

After a long while, Qin Tian and Shi Hao suddenly shook their bodies and simultaneously expelled the dark matter from their bodies.

"No wonder the four of them would step into the darkness. The opportunity to become an emperor is right in front of them. How could anyone not be driven mad by it?" Shi Hao sighed. In this kind of environment, how could they not step into the darkness after accumulating experience day by day?

"Let's go, let's continue on our way!" Qin Tian was eager to move forward. He had almost reached the pinnacle of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, but there was no way forward. He could only walk alone in the darkness with difficulty.

Unsure if the road ahead was the right one, and when he would reach his destination, he was in such darkness and utterly lost that he desperately needed guidance.

Even knowing that traveling with the Desolate Heavenly Emperor would make him a target of the Corpse Immortal Emperor, he was still willing to do so.

However, he was still wary of the Corpse Immortal Emperor. As a person from the future, as long as he took a step forward and returned to the present world, the Corpse Immortal Emperor would not be able to harm him in the slightest.

The Corpse Immortal Emperor was ultimately killed by the Desolate Heaven Emperor with a single sword strike, and his ashes were scattered throughout the Chaotic Ancient Era. To reach the future, one must defeat the Desolate Heaven Emperor.

However, if he had the ability to kill the Desolate Emperor.

Then the seven large characters wouldn't have appeared on the stone wall.

Qin Tian and his companion strode forward, and the further they went, the more truths they saw and the more Immortal Emperor scriptures they obtained.

Later, they stopped and came to a magnificent territory. This land was filled with dark light, all of which was extremely dense and indelible dark matter.

In that hazy, indistinct scene, one could vaguely make out the general outline.

“There is a being!” Shi Hao exclaimed in surprise. It was an enormous figure lying on a stone chair. Although its body was incomplete, it exuded an incredibly terrifying power and Dao.

"boom!"

Qin Tian and Shi Hao simultaneously raised their cultivation to its peak, their pupils radiating imperial light as they watched intently.

Finally, everything became clear. Under the blood-red twilight, at the bottom of the desolate, rocky mountain, black mist churned, and a giant lay supine on a throne carved from stone.

"This is the Corpse Immortal Emperor?" Qin Tian narrowed his eyes. The giant in front of him was completely black, his body seemed to be rotting, and he was emitting a thick black mist. That was the true origin of dark matter!
Unlike the three Heavenly Emperors, Qin Tian already knew everything and used the cause and effect reshaped by time to incorporate himself into the history of the current point in time.

Therefore, Qin Tian can truly step into this space-time and witness the final battle.

"A genuine emperor!"

"It inspires awe!"

Although Emperor Bone Brother is an unlucky fellow, he is indeed a supreme being on the path of cultivation, worthy of the awe of all living beings.

Qin Tian clicked his tongue and said, "But it looks really pitiful!"

"Emperor Bone is a ruthless man!" Qin Tian looked Emperor Bone up and down. He was badly injured, as if he had been torn apart, starting from his head and spreading all the way to his abdomen.

His upper body was missing half, such as half a head and his left arm, but his lower body was intact. He was lying on his back on the stone chair!
"After turning evil, he became cruel to all living beings; before turning evil, he was ruthless to himself. His physical body was severed, and his primordial spirit and true soul were also separated."

"This..." Shi Hao was speechless with surprise. The source of the darkness was actually a corpse, a corpse that was already dead, but faintly exuded the aura of an Immortal Emperor!
Even though he has been dead for countless eons, his power and terror can still be glimpsed!
A dense, impenetrable dark substance emerged from his decaying corpse, corroding this ancient and boundless land.

However, upon closer inspection, one can see that the corpse is bound by orderly chains, which tie it to the throne. However, like a curtain of light, it has also darkened under the cumulative impact of dark matter.

"This corpse, is he not dead?" Shi Hao murmured to himself. Based on his knowledge, he judged that this corpse was definitely dead.

However, Qin Tian said that at the end of the Boundary Sea there was an Emperor...

"Stay away from him, it's dangerous here!" said the primordial spirit mark in the temple from behind.

"I know, but some things must be done!" Shi Hao replied firmly. He used his great magical power to deduce the past, seeing the breathing of the Corpse Immortal Emperor, the destruction of the heavens, and the reason why the Four Dark Emperors summoned their dark subjects...

Qin Tian walked to the front of the hall and curiously examined the primordial spirit imprint.

This is also an Immortal Emperor, and compared to the Corpse Immortal Emperor, this mark belonging to the Light is weaker, and one can better glimpse the profound mysteries of the Immortal Emperor from it.

The imperial path he practiced happened to be related to the true spirit and primordial soul, and the part of the body that Emperor Bone Bro severed was simply the best subject of his research.

"What do you want to do?" The primordial spirit imprint in the ancient hall felt a rare sense of unease.

"Nothing much, just wanted to chat with you!" Qin Tian gave a friendly smile.

However, that self-righteous smile almost scared Emperor Bone into shrinking back into the box.

"I heard you've forgotten everything!" Qin Tian said kindly, "Would you like me to help you?" "Coincidentally, I'm a master in the path of the Primordial Spirit and True Spirit." Qin Tian boasted, "Injuries, massage, bone setting, and memory recovery are my specialties."

"No need!" Emperor Bone politely declined, sensing that the guy in front of him had some ill intentions.

Furthermore, what's this about sprains, bruises, massage, and bone setting? He doesn't even have a body, what are you going to massage?
"Come on in, don't be shy!"

Qin Tian patted his chest and declared that his skills were top-notch and would definitely make Emperor Bone feel right at home.

Finally, under Qin Tian's insistence, Emperor Bone Brother obediently released his Origin Imprint, allowing him to observe.

Of course, Qin Tian felt that Shi Hao, who was carrying the Emperor Sword, deserved more credit for the smooth progress.

"Oh, I see!"

"The Emperor is undergoing ascension, and there are even some runes of Quasi-Immortal Emperors within it. It's like a scripture explaining how to ascend from a Quasi-Immortal Emperor to an Immortal Emperor. It's too mysterious!" Qin Tian couldn't help but exclaim.

The ever-changing Immortal Emperor runes captivated Qin Tian.

Long ago, when the Corpse Immortal Emperor was undergoing his transformation, he encountered a calamity, and a drop of dark true blood fell and corrupted him.

In order to save his life, he decisively summoned the Emperor's Sword and dismembered himself to preserve his purity.

Therefore, some of the true spirits have not yet completed their transformation and are still in the realm of quasi-immortal emperors.

This is undoubtedly the greatest opportunity bestowed upon a quasi-Immortal Emperor. Throughout history, who has ever been able to glimpse the secrets of an Immortal Emperor on the verge of ascension? Who has ever been able to see the fleeting changes in the primordial symbols?!
This is like a ladder to heaven, helping quasi-immortal emperors climb to the end of the road.

It's so precious!
While Qin Tian was comprehending the bright side of Emperor Bone, the Corpse Immortal Emperor suddenly opened his empty eyes and stared at the two of them.

A powerful divine thought told them that if they guided living beings to this place and brought them abundant life force, they could exchange it for a Celestial Emperor's scripture.

Shi Hao resolutely refused. He was born to face calamity and had spent his entire life fighting against darkness. How could he possibly turn into an evil dragon and start a dark upheaval!
"Latercomer, do you intend to forge a karmic bond with an Emperor?!" A cold voice rang out, and the corpse opened its mouth, uttering a sound.

"The deceased is gone, may he rest in peace!" Shi Hao replied coldly, even though he knew that the Immortal Emperor in front of him might still be alive.

But the word "fear" doesn't exist in Huang's dictionary.

What? You're asking him what exactly is in Huang's dictionary?
Child! Look at Perfect World, what does it mean to be a boy who came out of the Great Wilderness? Of course, the dictionary doesn't contain that word.

Of course, that was before he entered the Land of Heaven. After entering the Land of Heaven, he underwent a century of compulsory education.

He is now a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Galleyton.

These calm words enraged the Corpse Immortal Emperor: "To disobey the Emperor is to be executed!"

A majestic voice emanated from the light barrier. Even with the double restraints in place, this voice shook the mountains and rivers, causing the ancient land to rumble in the ears.

"Those who defy the Emperor's will—die!" Dark matter condensed from the Corpse Immortal Emperor's body surged forth, transforming into a storm that surged outwards.

The next moment, the light screen lit up, intercepting most of the dark matter, with only a portion escaping and its power greatly reduced.

Dark matter reshaped and constructed, and countless imperial runes evolved, transforming into a demonic dragon with overwhelming magical power, which charged towards Shi Hao.

Even a mere wisp of aura, separated by two layers of restraint, could give rise to beings possessing combat power at the quasi-Immortal Emperor level.

Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh, the gap between an Emperor and a Quasi-Emperor was simply too vast, like the difference between heaven and earth.

"Come on, let's continue!" Qin Tian turned to look at the primordial spirit figure in the hall. This was Shi Hao's own trial, and he needed to overcome the tribulation on his own.

Moreover, he found studying the path to becoming an Immortal Emperor far more interesting than fighting.

Just a brief observation had already advanced his cultivation by a step, an achievement that would normally take tens of thousands of years to attain.

"No way!" Emperor Bone Brother looked aggrieved, like a little girl who had been bullied.

It's only because he's currently in a state of mental confusion and has forgotten everything that Qin Tian would have had a hard time making a move.

After all, a part of the Immortal Emperor is still an Immortal Emperor, and if they really fight, the outcome is still unknown.

"You don't want to live in a daze forever, not knowing who you are, do you?"

"Let me observe for a while, and I guarantee I'll cure you in the future!" Qin Tian patted his chest and swore.

"Fine!" Emperor Bone hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and agreed, even though he was quite disgusted by this kind of thing and felt it offended his dignity.

But compared to the temptation of regaining memories, a little dignity is not so important.

"You have formed a karmic bond with me, and you must fulfill it!" Emperor Bone's voice was incredibly grand, resounding throughout the ages, with the unseen Great Dao descending to witness this contract.

Qin Tian also sensed that a causal shackle had appeared on his body, incredibly strong and indelible.

This is the karma of a Celestial Emperor!

"Don't worry!" Qin Tian gave a thumbs up and said confidently, "You can go to the Divine City and ask around. Everyone knows that I, Qin, am a man of my word!"

In any case, it won't be long before the Corpse Immortal Emperor helps him remember everything without him having to lift a finger.

As for whether it has anything to do with Qin Tian...

That's not important. Just tell me whether your memory has been restored or not!
"That's good!" Emperor Bone Brother nodded and said, "I will unfold the primordial rules for you to observe."

"Big brother, this guy is a bit wicked. It's best not to form any karmic ties with him," Shi Hao warned telepathically.

"Don't worry!" Qin Tian patted Shi Hao on the shoulder: "Don't forget who I am."

"If I say there's no problem, then there's definitely no problem!" Qin Tian said meaningfully.

The ships that sail to the future do not have a place for the Corpse Immortal Emperor. If you want to cross the Chaotic Ancient Era, you must first ask the Desolate Heavenly Emperor if he agrees.

“That makes sense!” Shi Hao nodded. As a being from the future who had read the script, how could he possibly make a mistake?

Although the environment here isn't great—it's pitch black and you can't see anything clearly—it has the Immortal Emperor's Scriptures to study, making it the best place for cultivation.

And so, the two sat cross-legged in front of the light screen and began their cultivation.
