The boss of the underworld is a wife-loving maniac

Chapter 187 Long Talk

"boom!"

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Chen felt that he had finally stopped moving.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw a bamboo forest in front of him. Outside the bamboo forest was a staircase paved with bluestone, winding its way to the depths of the bamboo forest.

"Are you inviting me?"

Lin Chen chuckled, he stepped onto the bluestone steps and walked into the depths of the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest was very quiet. There was no sound of birds singing or insects chirping. If the bamboo forest was not growing so lush and green, this place would probably be mistaken for a dead place.

After walking a few dozen steps, the view suddenly became clear.

At the end of the bluestone steps is an open space in a bamboo forest. There is a young man.

The man had a charming and feminine appearance. Although he couldn't match the appearance of an immortal, he wasn't far behind.

He was leaning on the wooden table in front of him, seemingly dozing off, and didn't notice anyone coming.

"This can't be the great emperor."

Lin Chen murmured in his heart, and he became alert. The power of the emperor cannot be bullied. The strength of the emperor is very strong. He did not dare to take the risk to move forward easily.

"My friend, since you are here, why not come up and have a chat."

At this moment, a calm voice sounded in Lin Chen's ears. At the same time, the man leaning on the wooden table opened his eyes and looked at Lin Chen with bloodshot eyes.

The moment he saw Lin Chen, a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in his blood-red eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.

"Sit down. Since you have an emperor-level expert who was once stronger than me by your side, you don't have to worry about me doing anything bad to you."

The man said calmly. He was only a wisp of spiritual consciousness now, and was no match for Ye Yuan.

Lin Chen frowned slightly when he heard this, but he still sat opposite the man, and the two looked at each other in silence.

"...Don't you have anything to ask?"

After a long while, the man asked with some doubt. He had seen countless people, but he had never seen someone as strange as Lin Chen.

"Qianyun Mountain is the place where the seniors practiced in seclusion. I came here only to comprehend the techniques. I don't have anything to ask."

Lin Chen shook his head. What he said was true. He had no curiosity about the emperor in front of him.

Apart from the opponent's imperial-level martial arts, he didn't care about anything else.

"Hahaha! Interesting."

The man laughed out loud upon hearing this, and then he poured a cup of tea for himself and Lin Chen and chuckled.

"I used to be a genius from a large sect in the Immortal Realm. Later, my sect fought a great war with another sect. The battle shattered the void for tens of millions of miles, the heaven and earth shook, and the mountains and rivers collapsed."

"At the end of the war, I, who had just entered the Saint Realm, had reached the peak of the Supreme Saint Realm after countless life-and-death battles. In the end, I fought a life-and-death battle with the Supreme Sect Master of the opposing sect, broke through the Emperor Realm, and achieved the throne."

The man took a sip of the fragrant tea and looked into the quiet depths of the bamboo forest, as if he was missing something.

Lin Chen didn't say anything. He waited until the man looked at him again before he slowly spoke.

"Senior is indeed a man of natural talent. He fought to the death and broke through the Emperor Realm. This is not a big record in history."

Lin Chen was not lying. He had read most of the ancient books in the Immortal Realm and knew that every emperor-level strongman relied on training and fighting.

The man in front of him was at the beginning of the Saint Realm, but he kept breaking through his limits in the battle, and broke through the Emperor Realm without any breathing exercises. It can be said that he was unprecedented and will never be surpassed.

Now it seems that Lin Chen finally understood why the vision that emerged before the comprehension of Qianyun Mountain began was the killing of gods and the slaughter of all worlds.

“Haha, it’s a pity that I became an emperor in a hurry, and the hidden injuries on my body were too severe. In the end, I was defeated by another emperor. I left the spiritual consciousness space I opened up in Qianyun Mountain, and finally I was seriously injured and died.”

The man smiled sadly. His talent was indeed amazing.

If he could have enough time to regulate his breathing and enough healing pills, he could at least break through to the Half-Step Dao Lord realm.

"Senior was killed by another great emperor?!"

Lin Chen's attention was different from the man's. He noticed that the man said he was killed by another emperor, and he showed a rare look of shock.

In the current fairy world, everyone believes that there is only one emperor in an era, and only one person in the same generation can achieve enlightenment and become an emperor. This is completely different from what the man said.

Lin Chen was very keenly aware that the man died before the current fairyland, and he might know the secret about why the fairyland has become what it is now!

"Hmm? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

The man frowned slightly and looked at Lin Chen with doubt, wondering if he remembered it wrong or if there was something wrong with Lin Chen.

His spiritual consciousness is still relatively stable, so he shouldn't forget how he died.

"Senior, it's like this..."

Lin Chen then told the man the current situation in the fairyland. The man's face suddenly changed after hearing it.

"How is it possible that the Immortal World today doesn't even know what the Daojun Realm is?!"

He looked at Lin Chen in disbelief. Although he subconsciously felt that Lin Chen would not lie to him, he really couldn't believe it.

"Indeed, Senior, have you ever heard of the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls?"

Lin Chen asked. The man's face changed slightly when he heard this. He nodded, as if he had thought of something bad.

"The Ten Thousand Souls Hall is a very evil organization. Their hall master is already at the Dao Lord level, very powerful. Almost no force can destroy them."

"But in today's fairy world, the Ten Thousand Souls Hall has disappeared. Although the main members may still be there, there are no relevant ancient records."

Lin Chen said in a deep voice. He felt nervous for some reason. His question might be answered today.

"What? The Hall of Ten Thousand Souls is gone too!?"

The man was in disbelief at first, then he thought of something and his expression became a little strange.

Lin Chen naturally noticed this, and he bowed.

"Does the senior have any guesses?"

“…Although it’s not accurate, it should be able to provide a general direction.”

The man shook his head and then slowly said,

It turns out that the laws of heaven and earth in the fairy world are constantly changing, and every change will more or less change the distribution of the major races.

There was a fortune teller who once observed the stars and predicted that there would be a devastating catastrophe in the fairy world. The heaven and earth would collapse, and countless powerful people would perish, causing real devastation to all living things.

After a great catastrophe, the immortal world may be filled with grief, corpses, and broken laws, making it extremely unsuitable for cultivation.

After endless years, when everything has recovered to a certain degree, great changes will occur in heaven and earth, and in the midst of these great changes, a true golden age of cultivation will be ushered in.

"Those former top powers have all prepared for the catastrophe. I think the Ten Thousand Souls Hall has probably destroyed all traces of its existence, waiting for the great changes in the world to come and be reborn."

The man drank the tea in the cup and looked at Lin Chen opposite him, only to find that Lin Chen's face was solemn and he had not drunk a single sip of the tea in the cup.

He was speechless for a moment, then patted Lin Chen's shoulder gently and chuckled.

"What are you thinking about?"

"nothing."

Lin Chen came back to his senses from his contemplation, shook his head, and said nothing more, just staring at the tea in the cup in a daze.

Seeing this, the man helplessly poured himself another cup of tea and said lightly.

"Your talent is so amazing that you are the best even in my era, when saints are as numerous as dogs. You just need to fight when you need to challenge your limits and focus when you need to take steady steps. There will be no problem for you to reach the Dao Lord realm in the future."

"Thank you for the compliment, senior."

Lin Chen smiled gently, then he drank the tea in front of him and put down the teacup.
