Everyone was horrified.

The sound was terrifying, as if it came from the deepest hell, filled with a low, menacing tone.

Black Tortoise trembled in fear, and the Golden Crow Crown Prince and the million other cultivators turned pale with fright.

Lu Changsheng clenched his fists even tighter. It wasn't that he was afraid, but he felt that if he didn't clench his fists, he was afraid he would burst out laughing.

If I actually laughed, wouldn't that be unseemly?

"Aba! Waibi! Waibi! Aba!"

The voice rang out again. He looked at Lu Changsheng, but his eye sockets were no longer filled with eyeballs; instead, they were filled with two flames.

Being stared at like that by a Celestial Emperor would frighten any normal person, including Lu Changsheng. But this guy just kept babbling and talking nonsense, making it impossible for Lu Changsheng to be afraid.

Fortunately, Lu Changsheng had received professional training, and he generally wouldn't burst out laughing unless he couldn't help it.

However, the sound soon rang out again.

"I've finally waited for you!"

His voice was hoarse, like a demon emerging from an endless abyss; just hearing that voice was enough to make one tremble with fear.

This is the voice of the Emperor Corpse, and also the voice of a great emperor from Ancient Era.

Star Emperor.

But this statement shocked countless people.

I've finally waited for you?

What does this mean? Everyone was filled with curiosity.

Lu Changsheng looked at the other person with some surprise.

"You know me?"

Lu Changsheng was genuinely surprised. Could it be another of his fans? This is great! Let's turn hostility into friendship. Give me, Lu Changsheng, some face and release the person. I'll let you be the ninth prince. Give me face, okay?

However, the Emperor Corpse shook his head, his movements extremely slow.

"I don't know him."

The three words were uttered slowly, causing Lu Changsheng to pause in surprise.

I don't know you, what are you talking about? You're wasting your time.

Soon, the Emperor Corpse's voice rang out again.

"I have waited for an entire era, a whole era, and finally you have arrived. I know you must be full of doubts right now, but don't worry, I will tell you everything little by little. It has been a long, long time since we last spoke, and I will tell you everything. Don't worry."

These words are chilling.

It was as if he had planned everything, giving the impression that he had already anticipated this step.

This is chilling. This Emperor Corpse is very confident; in fact, you could say that every word and action of its exudes confidence.

However, after the Emperor Corpse finished speaking, Lu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

This guy is definitely in for some trouble.

The reason is simple: villains are often the ones who talk the most.

If the other party doesn't speak and just attacks, he'll really panic.

However, to ensure safety, Lu Changsheng turned his gaze to Tianji Zi, who was floating in the void.

"Senior Tianji, please perform a divination for me. If it's an ominous sign, nod; if it's auspicious, shake your head."

Lu Changsheng spoke.

The million cultivators were somewhat bewildered.

What are you going to ask about at this point?

Brother, Immortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor's corpse, what use is your divination now?

Everyone was a little confused, even Tianji Zi himself was a little confused.

Do we even need to look at this?

It's definitely a bad omen.

However, since it was Lu Changsheng who spoke, he didn't say much and directly took out the tortoise shell to start divining seriously.

In the blink of an eye, Tianji Zi's divination was complete.

Ominous sign!

A very bad omen!

It's a death sentence!

Upon seeing this, Tianji Zi looked at Lu Changsheng with a deathly pale face, then nodded ten times, informing Lu Changsheng that this time the situation was extremely ominous.

After seeing Tianji Zi nod ten times, Lu Changsheng completely relaxed.

With double insurance, this time it's really secure.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The earth trembled, and the stars in the Azure Sky shook, shooting out beams of starlight that entered the Emperor Corpse inside the coffin.

But the Emperor Corpse still couldn't move. He just looked at Lu Changsheng and slowly said, "Ask whatever you want to ask now, otherwise I'm afraid you'll die with regrets."

The Emperor Corpse spoke, utterly confident, as if in his eyes Lu Changsheng was already a corpse.

Coincidentally, Lu Changsheng had the same idea as him, only the roles were reversed.

"I do have a few questions, but I don't know how to ask them right now. Why don't you just say them first?"

Lu Changsheng originally intended to bring up his own inner questions, but thinking that he shouldn't talk too much, he decided to let him speak first.

"Alright, very good. No one has spoken for a whole era. Since that's the case, I'll tell you everything one by one."

The Emperor Corpse seemed eager to speak, and he spoke somewhat impatiently.

"I was born in Ancient Era, with unparalleled fortune and abundant Immortal Fate. At the age of twenty-five, I obtained a Star Divine Tree, which bore 365 flowers and fruits. Each fruit could greatly increase one's cultivation. I ate 365 fruits and advanced from Immortal Saint to Immortal Emperor."

"Three hundred years later, although I had reached the Immortal Emperor Realm, I thought I was invincible. But when I arrived at that place, I realized that I was just a slightly stronger ant. Isn't that ridiculous? Hahahaha!"

The Emperor Corpse spoke, recounting his past and revealing a shocking secret.

Even if he is an Immortal Emperor, he is nothing more than a slightly more powerful ant?

Millions of monks were stunned; their minds were buzzing.

Immortal Emperor!

This is an existence of supreme importance.

They're nothing more than slightly stronger ants?

What kind of being is a true powerhouse?

"Where?"

Lu Changsheng frowned and asked this question.

"There are places you cannot reach, because there are countless powerful beings there. Even I am but an ant. Even if you knew, it would be of no use. Therefore, one should not know too much. Knowing too much is a fatal blow."

The Star Immortal Emperor spoke slowly.

However, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but ask, "Is it related to the gods?"

"Yes." The Star Immortal Emperor answered every question, which was quite good in that respect. He wasn't too aloof. But he quickly continued, "I can see that you are also very confident. When you saw me, you showed no fear at all. On the contrary, you were extremely calm. You are a prodigy, a true prodigy. You might even be able to surpass me."

Do you believe that, no matter where you are, you will be the bright moon, overshadowing all other brilliance? That you are the protagonist of the era?

"This is what the Star Immortal Emperor asked."

On this issue, Lu Changsheng shook his head.

"Very good, you have a good understanding of your own limitations."

The Star Immortal Emperor spoke, but before he could finish, he had already finished.

Lu Changsheng then interrupted.

"I've never thought about whether I'm the protagonist of this era, because I am."

"I have never thought about whether I am the bright moon or not, because I am the Jin Yang, and even the bright moon does not dare to compete with me."

"No matter where I am, I, Lu Changsheng, am invincible in the world."

"In short, what Tianjiao can do, I, Lu Changsheng, can also do."

"What Tianjiao cannot do, I, Lu Changsheng, can still do."

"The Great Dao has granted this privilege, and Heaven has ordained it. Do you understand?"

Lu Changsheng spoke calmly, but every word he uttered was powerful and resonant, making one's blood boil.

Upon hearing Lu Changsheng's words, the millions of cultivators involuntarily clenched their fists.

Golden Crow Crown Prince and the others looked at Lu Changsheng with an indescribable gaze.

To dare to utter such domineering words in front of a Celestial Emperor is simply unimaginable.

You must understand, if it were them, their Dao hearts might collapse upon learning that even the Immortal Emperor was nothing more than a slightly stronger ant.

Unexpectedly, Lu Changsheng not only stabilized his Dao heart, but also uttered such domineering words.

Could it be...?

Is this what a true prodigy is like?

Lu Changsheng's words stunned even the Star Immortal Emperor.

He was truly stunned.

Lu Changsheng's performance astonished him. He had never imagined that there could be such a person with a steadfast Dao heart in this world.

However, a full quarter of an hour passed.

The voice of the Star Immortal Emperor rang out.

Hahahaha!

Hahahaha!

A strange laugh broke out, and it was unclear whether it was mocking.

"Very good, very good, excellent. I see my former self in you. You are truly confident. If you hadn't met me, I believe your future would have been incomparably brilliant. Perhaps you would still lose in the end, but you wouldn't lose by too much. With this kind of Dao heart, your achievements would definitely surpass mine. It's a pity you met me."

The Star Immortal Emperor laughed loudly, but his laughter seemed to be filled with jealousy, deep jealousy.

"But your words not only demonstrate your unwavering faith in the Dao, but also your ignorance and foolishness!"

At this moment, the Star Emperor roared, acting like a schizophrenic. One second he was praising Lu Changsheng, and the next he was furious.

When the Celestial Emperor was enraged, the Azure Sky changed color, billions of stars trembled, and countless Immortal King outside trembled in fear.

Unfortunately, they had no idea what was happening inside.

"Lu Changsheng, you are foolish and ignorant, which is why you dare to say such things. When you actually get to that place, you will find that you are nothing but an ant, a pitiful and pathetic ant. No matter how hard you try, even if you try your whole life, in the end, you are just a supporting character. Because in the eyes of those true geniuses, you don't even have the right to let them know your name."

Do you know?

"Star Immortal Emperor roared."

Lu Changsheng, however, remained completely calm.

He wasn't arrogant or overconfident; he had just heard these kinds of things far too often.

This was the case in the Lower Realm.

The same was true in the celestial realm.

Now, it's the same again.

Lu Changsheng looked calmly at the Star Immortal Emperor, and then slowly spoke.

"After saying all that, there's one thing I really don't understand: you encountered injustice in that place, so why did you want to kill me?"

Lu Changsheng took the initiative to ask a question.

He was puzzled. "You were humiliated elsewhere, why did you want to kill me? What grudge do I have against you?"

Lu Changsheng really couldn't understand it.

However, the Star Immortal Emperor slowly spoke, "When did I say I wanted to kill you?"

The voice of the Star Immortal Emperor rang out.

This left Lu Changsheng stunned.

Are you brain-dead?

Has the brain gone slumber for an entire era?

Wow! Is this guy out of his mind?

Not to mention Lu Changsheng, even the million cultivators floating in the air were dumbfounded.

"Don't rush, let me finish explaining."

The Star Immortal Emperor seemed genuinely confident, not worried about discovering any anomalies; otherwise, he wouldn't be so leisurely telling stories to Lu Changsheng here.

He's not in a hurry, not at all.

"In that place, I knew deeply how insignificant I was, but at that time, my Dao heart was firm. I believed that hard work would definitely pay off. But then I met a person, a true peerless genius. He was like a god, and I didn't even deserve to know his name."

"But I was blinded by greed and wanted to steal a treasure. He discovered me, but instead of killing me, he added karma to me. Perhaps you don't understand how terrible karma is to me. Karma blocked my path, so I left that place."

"I know that if I don't resolve this causal issue, I will eventually die silently like this. So I chose to bury my imperial body here. You all think I want to be reborn, right? Actually, I never died. It was this enormous causal relationship that allowed me to live, but it is also this enormous causal relationship that makes me suffer so much."

"I am here, waiting for an era, waiting for you. To be precise, I am waiting for an unparalleled genius, a true unparalleled genius. I want to shift the cause and effect, to place my cause and effect on you, to make you suffer the torment of karmic fire, while I inherit your cause and effect, inherit your body, and thus transform into a new imperial body."

"I can see that you have extremely high aptitude and talent. Your future achievements will not be lower than mine. Moreover, I am prepared that in this life, I can cultivate back to the Great Perfection of the Immortal Emperor realm and even surpass my predecessor."

"Most importantly, you also solved a huge problem for me. You got that treasure, didn't you?"

"I'm so happy that you've obtained the treasure that I tried everything to get but failed. You've solved a huge problem. Don't worry, once I have everything over you, I will remember you. And when I truly become that kind of being, perhaps I will resurrect you."

"Of course, at that time, it also depends on my mood. Perhaps at that time, I will forget you."

As expected of the Star Immortal Emperor, he was quite the chatterbox, uttering so much in one breath.

But the whole story has been explained in detail.

He didn't want to kill Lu Changsheng, but rather to switch places with him, so that he could inherit everything from Lu Changsheng, and Lu Changsheng could inherit everything from him.

This is an unparalleled and supreme method.

It was also his wish to plan for an era.

At this moment, the million cultivators fell silent. They had not expected that this Star Immortal Emperor was not dead, but was waiting for a sacrifice.

But what happened today has shocked them many times, so for some reason, they have become numb and taken it for granted.

"So that's what you were after?"

Lu Changsheng understood, he finally understood.

However, he showed no fear and continued to ask questions.

"What exactly is that place? And how powerful are they? Are they related to the gods? And just how powerful are the gods?"

Lu Changsheng continued to ask questions. There was a true Bai Xiaotong here, and he couldn't miss the opportunity, lest he lose the chance to ask him after he died.

"You don't need to ask anymore. You don't understand, you won't understand, and there's no need to ask."

The Star Immortal Emperor shook his head. At this moment, all the stars in the heavens trembled, and various auras of death and misfortune permeated the Main Tomb.

The withered bones trembled, and the Star Emperor's body slowly moved; he seemed to be reviving, completely reviving.

"I have OCD, please finish."

Lu Changsheng continued, saying that digging a hole but not filling it up was really unsettling.

After all, if he dies later, it will be a real problem.

The Star Immortal Emperor let out a piercing laugh, but he soon spoke.

"Alright, if I hadn't been out of touch with people for an entire generation, I would never waste my breath talking to a dead man."

"That place is called the God Sea! There are endless treasures in that place, and there is no shortage of fruits that can make people become Immortal Emperors. You heard me right, a single fruit can make a person an Immortal Emperor."

"But that place is extremely dangerous and terrifying. Even a Celestial Emperor would be nothing more than a slightly stronger ant there."

"The gods were a powerful force in that place. The strongest among them could rival those people. But since the end of the mythological era, the myths of the gods have also come to an end. They are not so powerful now, but the prestige of the gods remains. As long as the God King is alive, they will always have a place."

"As for how strong the gods are, you can think that the birth of the Six Realms is closely related to the gods. I am not very clear about these things, but the only thing I know is that the birth of the Six Realms was created by one of the gods' ancestors."

"Alright, I've told you everything you wanted to know. Now put everything down and give it all to me. That will reduce your suffering."

The Star Immortal Emperor said this, then waved his hand, instantly unleashing a million rays of starlight.

Thus, all one million cultivators fell into a daze.

At that moment, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but frown slightly.

However, the Star Immortal Emperor disagreed, saying, "Don't worry, they are not dead. I just erased all our conversations. I still need them. After I inherit everything from you, I will need a force to do things for me."

The Star Immortal Emperor said this.

At this moment, he was surrounded by stars.

Then he was surrounded by a sea of fire, which was karmic fire, the fire of cause and effect. In fact, he was suffering in the karmic fire every moment.

But soon, he won't.

The Star Immortal Emperor's face was beaming with an undisguised smile; aside from being ugly, there was nothing else to criticize.

"Cause and effect reversal!"

A low growl rang out as the Star Immortal Emperor exerted all his strength.

"Big brother, run!"

However, at this moment, Black Tortoise forcefully created a channel through the array. He remained silent, actually inscribing array patterns. At the critical moment, he wanted to take Lu Changsheng away.

Unfortunately, the Star Immortal Emperor didn't care at all.

He moved his hand slightly.

The formation was immediately broken.

"You can't escape."

The Star Immortal Emperor was extremely confident.

The surrounding Karma Fire Sea spread out, blessing Lu Changsheng.

At the same time.

The karma of Lu Changsheng also affected him.

But the next moment.

The Star Immortal Emperor's expression turned extremely ugly.

He witnessed a scene he would never forget.

It was even beyond his imagination.
