Song Xing: I am cultivating immortals in Qingcheng Mountain

Chapter 540: Jiange's Heart, the Greatest Emperor in the World

The morning light poured down like broken gold. In front of the door to the last floor of Jiange, Xiao Se stood on the steps. His green robe was stained with blood, which spread out like blooming winter plum blossoms.

It is not so easy to break into Jiange. Xiao Chong and Xiao Yu tried to break in several times, but they all ended in failure. They didn't even see this last level. Even for Xiao Se, it took him a lot of effort to get here.

Xiao Se's eyes moved slightly, and a purple light flashed in his eyes. At this moment, the inner demon that came from Wuxin was suddenly aroused.

"Asking about the situation?"

Xiao Se paused, guessing the content of the last round of the test. However, at this time, he had no other choice. Many people dare not face their own hearts, because in the deepest part of the heart is a person's cowardice, timidity, inferiority, arrogance, unwillingness, and powerlessness.
Everyone has these things, and Xiao Se is no exception. Whenever he recalls those unforgettable scenes, the wounds will be torn and the pain will still be there.

“How could I be so timid?”

Xiao Se pulled a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth. Standing in front of the door, he felt as if his legs were as heavy as a thousand pounds.

"Old Immortal, I hope you don't lie to me!!"

With a light sigh, Xiao Se took a step forward and crossed the threshold.

The moment you step in, the world turns upside down.

Behind the door is an empty hall with two huge banners hanging in the middle. There are words on them, which are vigorous and powerful, revealing the style of the poet.

"What is an emperor?"

Xiao Se's eyes swept across the banner on the left, his eyes moved slightly, and he read out the contents on it.

"What is an emperor?"

The same content was heard again in the hall. Xiao Se's arms, which were folded in front of him, tightened involuntarily, and a figure appeared at the end of his sight.

A somewhat illusory figure was walking towards him at this moment, with an air of looking down on the world. The crown on his head and the black dragon robe on his body all showed that he was not simple.

Finally, the phantom stood in front of Xiao Se, with a gaze as calm as the mountains, as if it saw through the long years and saw him.

"What is an emperor?"

The other party's voice sounded again, and Xiao Se's heart tightened. Facing this person, he actually felt like he was facing Emperor Mingde. No, this person was even higher than Emperor Mingde.

"A wise king in ancient times, who implemented benevolent and virtuous policies, and the people rested and recuperated, lived and worked in peace and contentment, could he be considered the greatest emperor of all time?"

The shadow raised his head and looked upward. His black dragon robe moved without wind, like the sea embracing all rivers.

The hall fell silent, the visitor stopped talking, Xiao Se looked at the other person, at this moment he suddenly understood the situation, the other person was waiting for his answer.

Xiao Se did not rush to answer this question, but thought carefully in his heart. Jiange was established by Xiao's ancestors, so it must have a deep meaning.

Judging from the literal meaning, the visitor did not seem to agree with this statement, otherwise he would not have asked this question.

But if this kind of emperor is not the greatest emperor in history, then what kind of emperor is the greatest emperor in history? ?

After a long silence, Xiao Se slowly gave his answer.

"Yes!!"

Hearing this, the shadow was stunned for a moment, but the other party did not delay and spoke again.

"He was an emperor with military power, he expanded the territory, he was given the title of Wolf's Lair, he was given the posthumous title of "Wu", he was famous for thousands of years, he could be the greatest emperor in history?"

After saying this, a hint of sneer flashed across the shadow's mouth. If a large-scale military campaign is launched and people's livelihood is inevitably impoverished, since Xiao Se believes that allowing the people to recuperate can make him an emperor of all ages, then a ruler who causes great trouble to the people and wastes money and resources will certainly not be an emperor of all ages.

But is this actually the case? ?

This time, Xiao Se did not delay. He stood there with a determined look, like a pine or cypress on the top of a mountain, unmoved by any wind.

"Yes!!"

This answer is also decisive.

The shadow frowned. Xiao Se's answer seemed to be beyond his expectations. He looked at Xiao Se deeply and continued, "The emperor guards the country's gates, the king dies for the country, the army breaks the city, and swears to coexist with the country. Can you be the greatest emperor in the history?"

Xiao Se lowered his eyes and muttered to himself.

"The emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies for the country." "Is there really such an emperor in the world?"

After a moment of silence, Xiao Se suddenly raised his head, met that majestic gaze, and said firmly: "Yes!!"

The shadow did not pause and spoke again: "In the troubled times, you unified all the regions, established a dynasty, and intimidated the world. Can you be the greatest emperor in history?"

Xiao Se was silent for a long time, and this time he didn't answer.

The shadow seemed to have a telepathic connection with him, and then spoke again.

"A woman is in power, the sun and the moon are across the sky, her methods are cruel, but she has brought order to the world, and all races come to pay tribute to her. Can she be the greatest emperor of all time?"

Xiao Se looked at the phantom with a hint of surprise. In his memory, there had never been such an emperor with a woman in power.

But it did not stop him from answering the question.

"Yes!!"

"The Emperor of Ninety-Nine, standing tall and proud, collapsed in the middle of his path, and the world was in chaos. The one who stole the country, Ji, also called himself the Son of Heaven, can he be the greatest emperor of all time?"

Xiao Se clenched his fists and took a deep breath. This was a loser, but he had a different opinion.

"Yes!!"

The phantom asked again.

"Imprison my father and kill my brother, ascend the throne, unify the world, make all nations bow down to me, bring peace and order to the world, can I be the greatest emperor of all time?"

Xiao Se was silent for a long time this time, only because the scene the other party described seemed familiar and so similar to his current self.

"Yes!!"

This time, the phantom suddenly took a step forward, and an overwhelming momentum rushed towards Xiao Se.

"Young man, how dare you tease me???"

As soon as this sound came out, the entire Sword Pavilion began to roar, and the spiritual energy in Apocalypse City seemed to be ignited at this moment and was in turmoil.

The pressure was growing greater and greater. Xiao Se felt as if a mountain weighing tens of millions of pounds was pressing down on his shoulders, and he might be crushed to death in the next moment.

"Answer me, how can those losers be called the greatest emperors of all time???"

Xiao Se was so overwhelmed by the sudden pressure that he couldn't raise his head, and his originally straight back became hunched.

But his voice was unusually firm.

"An emperor must stand tall and proud, be indomitable, and have a will stronger than iron. He will not regret even if he dies nine times. He will practice his own way and die without regrets."

"As an emperor, one should have the ambition to encompass the universe, not to be concerned with superficial things, not to be limited by low places or ponds, and to carry out one's will from beginning to end."

"An emperor should look down upon the years. If I were the emperor, the world would be in peace!!"

Xiao Se's words were like thunder, and the phantom fell silent after hearing them.

Suddenly, a loud and unbridled laugh echoed out.

“Hahaha~~hahaha~~~hahahaha~~~”

"If I were the emperor, the world would be peaceful!!!"

“Stand tall and proud!!”

“Always consistent!”

"Boy, you are pretty good"

"As an emperor, everything else can change, except for one thing that cannot change, which is to remain consistent and unchanging. If I want to fight, the heavens must make way for me!!"
