Perfect World: Ten Crowns

Chapter 443 Surpassing Immortal King, Not Even a Quasi-Emperor

Boom!

At this moment, Xia Sheng's entire body shone brightly, reaching its peak. Strands of dazzling immortal light overflowed, incredibly eye-catching, unleashing an incomprehensible world-destroying power that was too terrifying, spanning countless ages!

This is an indelible and dazzling imperial glory!
In an instant, the entire island cluster was on the verge of exploding, unable to withstand this terrifying life fluctuation. Fortunately, the Butcher and the Burial Queen, two masters of Emperor Light, intervened in time, and a massive amount of runes fell, imprisoning heaven and earth.

Even so, apart from the two of them, all the ancient beings withdrew from the island group and gazed at each other from afar in the boundary sea, not daring to approach.

A single wisp of imperial radiance could crush an unparalleled giant, and even the three Dao Venerables showed signs of fear at this moment.

"A Quasi-Immortal Emperor, did he really succeed?"

The immortal sage spoke, his white hair flying, his face somewhat stunned.

In a mere 80,000 years, he has completed the path to becoming a king, standing shoulder to shoulder with two super-powerful figures, the butcher and the chicken farmer, and might even leap into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm? This is simply like a dream, too fantastical.

However, the phenomenon suddenly changed in the next moment.

puff!
A blinding stream of blood shot out, tearing apart the heavens and earth. It was Xia Sheng. He let out a muffled groan, his brows splitting open, and he staggered backward.

In an instant, the imperial light around him dissipated, his life realm rapidly plummeted, and he fell below the Immortal Path in a short while, his life hanging by a thread.

At the same time, the Emperor also shot out from the infant's body, like a piece of porcelain, its entire body covered with cracks, almost shattered.

"Failed."

He coughed up large amounts of blood, his figure became illusory, and at the same time, there was a pulling force behind him, trying to pull him back to the upper reaches of the river of time, back to the ancient era.

The failure to break through to the Emperor Realm brought with it an incredibly terrifying backlash.

Instantly, countless top players realized what was happening.

For example, the butcher, the chicken farmer, and the three Dao Venerables—back then, which one of them didn't try to break through to the King Realm? They just had different levels of effort.

Now, the emperor's actions are undoubtedly the most radical. He actually wants to step into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm in one step, which is even greater than the backlash after the butcher failed back then.

"Stay true to yourself!"

Xia Sheng roared and swallowed a Nine-Turn Immortal Pill. At the same time, his six secret realms trembled, and the power of the two major systems, Secret Realm Technique and Qiankun Road, was fully activated. A complete life universe was reflected above his head, radiating brilliant immortal light, in an attempt to stop all of this.

If the past and present are called Zhou, representing time, then the four directions above and below are called Yu, representing space. He wants to interpret the path of heaven and earth, condense enough Yu Hai (a vast ocean of space), exchange space for time, and save his true self.

In an instant, the entire sea of ​​boundaries beneath his feet was dyed red, and countless remnants of the boundary glowed, illuminated by the Mother Tree of Heaven and Earth, becoming Xia Sheng's life sea.

Swish!
In an instant, he returned to his peak, and countless figures piled up behind him, then burst like bubbles with the backlash light.

Boom!

Time was devouring, and space was trying to remedy the situation. The resulting phenomena were terrifying. Billions of black celestial rays descended, tearing the heavens and earth apart. Ghosts and gods wailed and howled, as if the world was being created. A massive amount of chaotic energy swept across the sky, engulfing everything.

"Can we help him?"

The female burial queen spoke, and under such great power, only she and the butcher could approach the area where Xia Sheng was located. Even the fake medicine seller could not, after all, he was only one-sixth of his former strength and had not reached his peak strength.

"No, the only way is to save yourself."

"The butcher said, his expression grave.

Xia Sheng was too reckless. His death calamity was even more terrifying than his own back then. Now he could only rely on himself to get through it. Perhaps he could be born into an emperor. If he couldn't get through it, he would only die and perish.

"However, it's not like there's no way at all."

Then, he continued, looking towards the supreme elixir in the distance: "Fellow Daoist, karma will prevail, I'll lend you another nine drops of elixir!"

During Xia Sheng's seclusion, the fake medicine seller kept imitating the Great Dao around him. This was a great cause, and now it was time to repay the great fruit.

hum!
Helpless, the holy little man had no choice but to force out nine more drops of the Dreamlike Immortal Elixir.

This substance has been accumulated over countless eons, and its effects are far greater than those of immortal medicine. Even he himself had not accumulated much of it, yet he had taken out eighteen drops in succession.

"Thanks."

Xia Sheng opened his eyes, and his figure suddenly became solid. He did not refuse and accepted the nine drops of dazzling immortal liquid. Then his figure became blurry again as he struggled to survive the vast death tribulation.

Finally, eight thousand years have passed.

Just as he was about to run out of energy, he finally pulled through, and his figure was reflected again in the inexplicable sea of ​​space, shining brightly, with a faint imperial glow appearing on his body.

Meanwhile, as time passed, the Emperor's figure stabilized and did not disappear, but it was forcibly relegated to the middle period of the Immortal Ancient Era, where it remained.

"Is this to be grouped with butchers and chicken farmers?"

At this moment, all the old monsters were startled.

How long has it been? Only a hundred thousand years. The Emperor has successfully given birth to Di Hui. How astonishing! Throughout the ages, only a handful of people have reached this level. "Incompleteness is actually a constraint."

However, Xia Sheng merely frowned slightly, examined the faint imperial aura covering his body, and then deliberately dissipated it, transforming it into a vast essence that seeped into his flesh and blood.

Since he was going to make a breakthrough, he decided to go all the way to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm. He didn't want to be stuck at the Emperor Light realm forever, so he took the initiative to cut it off.

"It's a pity."

At this moment, the Queen of the Underworld arrived from afar, revealing a slight look of regret.

The Emperor's Light, something countless beings dream of, was discarded with disdain by the Emperor, which is truly a pity.

"Haha, fellow Daoist, you have a great spirit!"

However, the butcher laughed heartily, stepped in front of Xia Sheng, looked him up and down, and then patted him heavily on the shoulder as a sign of goodwill.

He valued this young man more and more.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on reaching a new level!"

The three Dao Venerables arrived at the same time, each revealing a hint of surprise.

Having survived this near-death experience, Xia Sheng dispelled his imperial aura but absorbed a vast amount of essence into his body. They could sense that this young man was even more terrifying.

Surpassing the pinnacle of Immortal Kings, yet not within the realm of Imperial Glory.

This is a strange state. After all, throughout history, no one would willingly dissipate their imperial glory. Perhaps only one emperor has ever appeared in all the ages.

"I wish to return to the rear; who will accompany me?"

After expressing his gratitude to everyone, Xia Sheng revealed his true feelings.

Fifteen hundred thousand years have passed since his trip to the Boundary Sea. He doesn't know what's happening there, but he wants to go back and take a look, and also bring a group of powerful individuals from the island with him.

Upon hearing this, several people in the room showed signs of interest.

The emperor's performance proves that he has the qualities to become emperor, and following him does not seem like a bad thing; perhaps it can help us avoid the great purge in the future.

As the dark storm intensifies, many powerful giants are considering their options.

"I'll go back with you!"

At this moment, the Immortal Venerable, one of the three Great Dao Venerables, spoke. He had a ruddy complexion and white hair, and held a whisk in his hand. Unlike the other two Great Dao Venerables, the world he created, the Immortal Realm, still existed.

This is also why he wants to return.

Neither the Underworld Lord nor the Human Lord spoke.

The former buried its own era with its own hands.

As for the latter, the original ancient world of that time has long since passed away, and as for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, that is a brand new era, which has long been irrelevant to him.

The butcher and chicken farmer also stated that if any dangers arise in the rear in the future, they can contact them through the Guiding Ancient Temple.

They still intend to remain in the Boundary Sea, seeking an opportunity to become emperors.

Although Xia Sheng failed to become emperor and severed the Emperor's Light, the two butchers regarded him as an existence on the same level and addressed him as a fellow Daoist.

Even the chicken farmer had some doubts. Just how powerful was the current emperor? To obliterate the imperial radiance and integrate it into his flesh and blood—this was a path no one had ever walked before.

Xia Sheng left in a hurry, so she didn't bring it up again.

"We are willing to follow Your Majesty."

Before his departure, two more supreme figures stepped forward, willing to follow in Xia Sheng's footsteps.

One was the Peacock Ancestor from the Immortal Realm, surrounded by seven-colored immortal light, making him extremely extraordinary; the other was a powerful Holy Spirit, whose age was unknown.

And so, Xia Sheng led the three masters on their journey home.

However, before leaving, during his conversation with the Butcher and the Female Burial King, he unexpectedly learned the whereabouts of the Azure Nether Daoist.

"Qingming Daoist? You don't mean that weapon refiner, do you?"

The chicken farmer spoke up, clearly indicating that he had heard of this person.

"He is still alive. On his journey back 100,000 years ago, I crossed time and space with him and we met in the same world."

The butcher added, recounting the story in detail.
