Perfect World: Ten Crowns

Chapter 441 The Butcher's Pact
"You are the emperor?"

"good."

The Butcher was a burly man with disheveled hair and bronze skin. He carried a bow and arrow on his back and exuded an awe-inspiring aura.

More importantly, its body was surrounded by an incomparably terrifying celestial light, which was a dense array of brilliant Dao symbols that had surpassed the level of Immortal King and reached the realm of eternal immortality.

It's just a pity that he was always one step away from the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

While the butcher was sizing up the butcher, the butcher was also sizing up Xia Sheng. His expression was complicated. He had seen the emperor in more than one era, but he never expected that the emperor was actually an incarnation of Xia Sheng. This was a unique path.

"I need that ancient temple to help me reach the other side and glimpse the ultimate place!"

Next, the butcher revealed his purpose, which was his second statement.

From the chicken farmer, he learned that Xia Sheng possessed a special ancient temple that contained a teleportation path, which might lead to the ultimate ancient land.

Upon hearing this, many of the seasoned veterans in the room became excited.

They have waited for countless eons, all for the ultimate ancient land. They have approached the Emperor more than once, willing to pay any price to obtain the ancient palace, but all their attempts have failed.

Fearing his power, and with the chicken farmer's protection, no one dared to cause him any trouble.

Now that the butcher has brought it up again, how can it not excite people?

No matter how strong the emperor is, he is still only in the realm of immortal kings. Can he defeat a butcher?
"No."

However, even when faced with this rumored jinx, Xia Sheng still refused.

Having glimpsed the future, he naturally knew what lay at the end of the sea. If the butchers and their ilk were to actually cross it, they would only be harming themselves.

"Having reached the other shore and found the opportunity to become an emperor, why do you insist on hindering me, fellow Daoist?"

One of the creators of the Immortal Realm, the Immortal Venerable, spoke, letting out a sigh.

Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng sneered and replied without any politeness: "The Emperor you speak of, fellow Daoist, is probably not the Emperor of the Mortal Realm, but the Emperor of Darkness!"

Upon hearing this, the room immediately fell silent.

The Celestial Venerable wanted to refute, but then remembered the bloodshed in the Heavenly Court and remained silent.

In fact, the strongest people of every era have all come into contact with darkness to some extent, and now that they have all gathered here, they have already deduced some things.

That is the so-called Immortal Emperor, who is very likely the source of darkness.

"Once I touch the Emperor's Gate, I am confident that I can step into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm. At that time, who can eliminate me?" the Butcher suddenly said, his hair flying, exuding boundless confidence.

He had been stuck at the Emperor Light Realm for far too long, and he was confident that as long as he got the opportunity, he would definitely be able to take that step, become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and cleanse all the darkness of eternity.

"Leaving aside the higher levels for now, if there are more than one dark being at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, then let's not forget how that Footprint Emperor fell!"

Xia Sheng spoke, his expression solemn. He would not hand over the ancient palace unless it was forcibly taken.

The future memory shows that four Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors besieged Shi Hao alone. Even if he were to rule this realm in the future, he would not act in vain, but would wait for the next generation.

The moment the words "Footprint Emperor" were uttered, the crowd quieted down again.

Even the butcher looked thoughtful.

The era of imperial decline was truly unique, like a watershed that divided the long river of time into two parts.

“My ancestor did indeed say that there is great terror on the other side, and only an emperor can descend.”

The chicken farmer suddenly said that the ancestor she was referring to was naturally the burial master.

She was somewhat moved by Xia Sheng's words; the other shore was too dangerous and not a place where she could find the opportunity to become an emperor.

"We can't just wait here in vain, can we?"

The Underworld Lord frowned slightly. This handsome young man, dressed in magnificent clothes, appeared to be a refined gentleman, showing no sign of his ruthless and decisive nature, who had once brought about the downfall of an entire era. "The greatest dark storm is about to arrive. You may all return with me to the rear."

Xia Sheng said that his biggest gain from this trip was obtaining the Azure Ancient Palace, which allowed him to establish contact with a group of ancient beings in the deepest part of the Boundary Sea.

Over the course of fifty thousand years of living with this group of people, my own Dao has become increasingly perfect.

Now, he wants to bring everyone back.

Especially the Butcher, the Female Burial King, and the Three Great Dao Venerables—any one of them could sweep across an entire realm and hold down the fort in the rear.

However, after these words were spoken, the people in the room lost interest.

They were too old, having long since transcended worldly concerns, and had no more worries about the rear. They were single-mindedly devoted to the Dao, and nothing could move them except for the opportunity to become emperors.

"If I hear the Dao in the morning, I can die content in the evening. Please hand over the ancient palace, young friend. I want to give it a try."

At that moment, the butcher spoke, his eyes shining with an immortal light.

He was willing to wait for countless years, even if it meant death, to reach the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

Boom!

Upon hearing this, an overwhelming pressure descended upon this world. It was terrifying. Even the three Dao Venerables who stood at the pinnacle of Immortal Kings couldn't help but retreat, not daring to withstand this pressure head-on.

Compared to the butchers, their accumulation is insufficient to give birth to an imperial glory.

Chi!
However, Xia Sheng did not move. His body glowed, and layers of immortal radiance shone out, like a runic hurricane gathering, resisting the terrifying pressure sweeping in from all directions.

Click!

However, after only a dozen breaths, the celestial radiance on his body exploded, becoming unstoppable.

"assistant!"

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the Queen of the Underworld appeared in front of him. With a gentle wave of her fair hand, golden burial aura spread out and blocked all the killing pressure.

At the same time, the butcher also withdrew his life-giving aura. He had not used any killing intent, but only wanted to test the emperor's resolve. However, seeing the emperor's determination, he was now at a loss for what to do.

"Young friend, make a condition. I can exchange anything for it."

The butcher sighed, saying that the two sides only had different ideologies and had not yet reached the point of becoming enemies.

"It's very simple. Give me a million years, and I'll pave a path for you to become emperors!"

Xia Sheng said, his black hair dancing, showing his unparalleled style.

You are waiting for the opportunity to become emperor, well then, since that's the case, he will open a path for you!

At this moment, his understanding of the path to becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor became increasingly clear. Although it was difficult to bridge the gap between the past and the present, it was feasible.

Upon hearing this, all the industry leaders present showed unusual expressions.

There was surprise, disdain, calmness, and seriousness.
Having lived through so many eras, they had seen it all and were not surprised by anything.

"A million years, good, maybe that's not too late."

The butcher looked towards the end of the boundary sea, nodded slightly, and agreed.

He has already waited for countless epochs, and he can wait a million years. If the emperor can open up the path to becoming a quasi-immortal emperor by then, that would be best. But if not, he can still take a gamble.

"Perhaps it won't take a million years, um, give me a hundred thousand years, and I'll prove it to you!"

At this point, Xia Sheng added more.

Before he leaves, he wants to prove his extraordinary abilities and attract a large number of old monsters to help him secure the rear and create a peaceful world.
