Chapter 1740: The Old Man Who Destroyed the World, the Failed King Who Became the Emperor (Update)
"Young man, do you know me?"

"This is truly a strange thing. No one in this world should know my origins, not even the Nine Nether Beast Clan."

"Young man, can you tell me how you know this about me?"

At the top of the Sea Boundary, the skinny old man looked at Xu Xin in the crowd. There was surprise and scrutiny in his eyes, mixed with many inexplicable emotions.

The expressions of Emperor Huang Tian and the three fallen quasi-immortal emperors changed, especially the last three. After looking at each other, they all had some thoughts in their hearts.

In fact, not only these people, but also many Immortal Kings, True Immortals, and even some powerful people below the True Immortals, can sort out some things from the words of Xu Xin and the old man.

First of all, this skinny old man did not deny that he was the Nine Nether Beast.

The old man who destroyed the world said that no one in the world should know his origins, so he must have done something that led to such a judgment.

But how did Xu Xin know?
The Immortal King overlooks time and space, travels through the long river of history, and can almost discover all the secrets of the world.

However, some history that is hidden by top powerhouses, especially deliberately blurred by beings like the World-Destroying Old Man, is impossible for ordinary people to know.

Xu Xin knew that it might involve a powerful person who could defeat a king and become an emperor.

Perhaps, he is not a quasi-immortal emperor, but a real immortal emperor.

"Nine Nether Beast, can't you guess it?"

"You, all of you, took the wrong path and ultimately failed."

Xu Xin said calmly, his double pupils emitting infinite immortal light, overlooking the long river of time, trying to see clearly the possible waves and storms.

But strangely, everything was calm and nothing changed.

"Did I go the wrong way? Did we fail?"

"You mean, darkness, is wrong? Failed..."

The old man of destruction muttered to himself, and the faces of the three fallen quasi-immortal emperors changed. They took the initiative to come into contact with the darkness, fell into the darkness, and sacrificed countless people. How could they accept that the darkness would fail?

"Little friend, you can't joke about these things!"

The old man of destruction stared at Xu Xin, as if he wanted to know everything he knew.

A lonely and thin figure blocked the way of the old man of destruction. It was Emperor Huang Tian who had recovered some of his vitality.

"Daoyou, are you going to stop me?"

The old man who destroyed the world frowned slightly. Emperor Huang Tian did not answer, but just blocked his sight.

"It's good to be young, passionate, brave, and able to shed tears, but in the end, it's all in vain!"

The skinny old man shook his head and sighed, saying: "The Great Dao is always ruthless. If you don't follow the Great Dao, how can you achieve the Great Dao and become an Immortal Emperor? After all, you are the same kind of person as us. Why do you have to do this? You will understand sooner or later."

"Fellow Daoist, if you can't be as ruthless as the Great Dao, then I will make the decision for you and help you destroy this world!"

"My name is the Old Man of Destruction. I control countless realms of destruction."

The old man said calmly, and with a "bang", he slapped out his palm and hit towards the fairyland, wanting to completely kill it and turn it into an eternal wasteland.

The terrifying darkness destroyed the past, present and future. Even the three fallen quasi-immortal emperors were frightened. With their current strength, the three of them could not withstand such power at all!

The boundary sea was destroyed, and large areas of the sea dried up. They were all destroyed by the palm of the old man who destroyed the world. A wave and a piece of ruined world disappeared just like that, returning to chaos.

The power of darkness surged, the old man made a move, but was blocked by Shi Hao. There was a violent collision, and the sea boundary was filled with gray fog, the ocean was boiling, and an area was completely evaporated, revealing the dry seabed.

There are reefs, chaos, and immortal bones that have sunk for billions of years. The changes in the world have become reality at this moment.

“Young man, let me show you my path back then. I have gone further than you, but unfortunately, it is a dead end.”

"Only by embracing darkness can we find the eternal path and become an emperor."

The old man shook his head and slapped out another palm, which was as black as ink and easily blocked Emperor Huang Tian.

The power of darkness is destructive and overbearing. In the endless darkness, the way of the old man of destruction, his magic, and his unparalleled fighting power are manifested. In the blink of an eye, the heavens will be overturned.

The power of the old man who destroys the world is too powerful, even stronger than the emperor Huangtian who was at his peak during the conquest of the dark land.

"boom!"

A dazzling and sacred light rose from outside the body of the old man who destroyed the world, and it was extremely dazzling.

His entire body seemed to be undergoing a bloody and dark transformation, as if another self was trying to break free from his broken body.

"Hmm, this kind of aura?"

The three fallen quasi-immortal emperors were shocked and felt horrified. That kind of weird sacred light was a purer dark substance, and that kind of transformation was the further dark realm they longed for.

At this moment, in heaven and on earth, whether in the fairyland, the burial ground, the embankment, or in the boundary sea, one could feel a breath that made one's soul tremble.

The broken body of the old man who destroyed the world was cracking, as if it was trying to break free and become a brand new self.

The terrifying aura fluctuated, shaking the past, present and future, emitting a majestic and terrifying aura that swept across all realms of the sea.

"impossible……"

"Didn't he say he had failed a long time ago?"

"Is he lying?"

The three fallen quasi-immortal emperors were all shocked. Their words, like a world-destroying calamity, shook the heavens, with lightning and rumbling sounds.

Looking back at history, blood is pouring down and strange phenomena are appearing in the sky.

The sea world is evolving, and in it, there are the rise and fall of races, the destruction of the strong, scenes of the creation of the world, and signs of the end of the world. These are all old events that happened in the past.

In the endless darkness, the old fetus of the World-Destroying Old Man was transforming, and the new divine fetus was particularly terrifying, as if it had reached a whole new realm. It only needed a little more change to be reborn in Nirvana.

"Young man, did you see that?"

"This is me in the past. I reached the true perfection of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor and reached the ultimate Nirvana. I was just one step away from becoming an emperor, but... I failed..."

The old man who destroyed the world said so. At this moment, he was indeed extremely powerful. With the help of the power of darkness, he transformed into the ultimate perfection of a quasi-immortal emperor. His origin was as black as ink and turned into a body of darkness.

While he was speaking, his aura changed again. He was about to break through to become the Immortal Emperor. However, the most strange thing was that he himself collapsed and broke into pieces, and his soul also did the same. He inexplicably went towards destruction.

"Young man, you understand."

As the old man of destruction spoke, the shattered body of darkness reassembled, as if time had gone backwards, and he achieved nirvana once again, and it was even more complete.

His old skin was cracking again, and was about to transform into the fetus of darkness again.

It can be said that the old man who destroys the world is really strong. He has reached the perfection of the quasi-immortal emperor and has one foot in the realm of the immortal emperor, but it is all in vain after all. For some reason, he can never truly break through the king and become the emperor.
