Chapter 246 Quasi-Emperor from the Ancient Times
“The ten immortals have left. This means that the coffin is probably empty now!”

The shock in his heart disappeared with the departure of the ten immortals. Meng Chen stepped forward and looked inside the bronze coffin.

“Yes, I just saw someone who didn’t come out.” Qi Daolin said.

“Oh?” Shi Hao also walked forward and looked into the coffin.

Then, Qi Daolin, White Tiger King, Dragon Bird King, Qingyi, Heizi, Xiaohuang, and Xiyao all gathered around, looking extremely curious.

They stared into the ancient coffin, as if they were looking into an endless dark space.

Gradually, everyone clearly saw a ball of light appear in the darkness, swaying and about to rush out of the coffin.

“That’s it! Chaos Flame!”

Shi Hao exclaimed in surprise after seeing clearly. This was the mysterious flame he saw last time, emitting a strong aura of chaos.

It is only the size of a fist, very special, composed of pure symbols, and does not look like a divine flame. It has an ancient atmosphere and is full of Taoist charm.

Everyone hurriedly retreated. With a hiss, the ball of fire rushed out of the coffin, rushed out of the dark space inside the coffin, and floated in front of everyone’s eyes.

“Is this really the Chaos Flame?! If I could obtain it and use it to ignite the Divine Fire, I would be able to reach a higher level!”

Qingyi was shocked. Her expression of shock at this moment was no less than when the ten immortals rushed out of the coffin earlier.

“No…, this is not Chaos Flame!” Qi Daolin shook his head.

“Indeed! This is not the Chaos Flame. Although none of us have seen it with our own eyes, it is completely different from what is recorded in ancient books.” The Dragon Bird King added.

“This may be a ball of unknown immortal fire! It may be a fusion of the obsession and Tao fire of a true immortal after his death in ancient times, such as the Great Red Sky Fire.” White Tiger King said.

He didn’t know the details, just guessing.

The fire was black and white, floating there and looking very calm, clear and transparent, as if it was confronting them, as if if the enemy did not move, I would not move either.

……

As time went by, the White Tiger King, the Dragon Bird King, and Qi Daolin each had their own selfish thoughts and wanted to collect the ball of black and white flames.

The first two naturally want to take it and give it to Meng Chen, or Xiao Huang and Heizi, while the latter naturally hopes that it can be obtained by Shi Hao.

Just like this, they seemed to know each other’s intentions, but they were not able to say it out loud, let alone take it directly, so they fell into silence for a while.

In the silence, time passed quickly, and the black and white flames, seemingly unable to wait any longer, took action.

It began to fly slowly towards Mengchen, neither fast nor slow, and as it arrived, it began to undergo earth-shaking changes.

It began to extend, and first turned into a Kunpeng, the size of an eagle. Although it was composed entirely of symbols, it was lifelike and extremely mysterious.

In an instant, the fire changed again and turned into a real phoenix, also made up of symbols. It was lifelike and very mysterious.

Then, it changed again, transforming into a Nine Nether Beast…, a red-gold sky dragon, an Eye of Samsara… and so on.

This ball of black and white flame, with its series of changes, made Meng Chen’s heart palpitate. These were all the magical skills he possessed!
At this moment, Meng Chen and everyone else’s eyes widened. It… it could actually sense and imitate the magic of the person in front of it!

Then, after a round of imitation, it changed into a Kunpeng again… and just when the black and white flames were about to change again.

“Buzzing…”

Suddenly, the bronze coffin of the Three Worlds began to move…

It actually began to tremble on its own! The shaking coffin lid made frequent trembling sounds like collisions.

“Hey…”

A colorful light shot up into the sky, gushing out from the bronze coffin, reflecting an endless river of stars. Countless starlight floated and flickered in it like big stars. Sometimes you could see big stars dying and falling, and sometimes you could see new stars being born.

“That is… the long river of time…”

Qi Daolin, White Tiger King, and Dragon Bird King were all stunned.

“Time flows!”

Meng Chen, Shi Hao and the others were all extremely shocked. The scene before them was truly horrifying. Looking at the long river that looked like a galaxy made them fall into a fantastic state of mind, as if they had seen thousands, tens of thousands of years, or even longer…

“Hey…”

As they watched, they saw that in the endless upper reaches of the long river of time, a tiny purple light appeared, as small as the tip of a needle.

The purple light quickly flowed down the long river of time, making the purple color clearer and more purple, rendering the large area of ​​the long river of time into a pure purple color. This purple color seemed to be able to reverse life and death. The starlight that was about to extinguish and fall began to shine again under its rendering, as if it had been reborn.

“Hey…”

The purple light came along the long river of time, getting closer and closer, allowing Meng Chen and others to finally get a glimpse of the full picture. It turned out to be a blooming purple lotus!
Flowing down the long river of time that is separated by who knows how many years.

It moved at an extremely fast speed. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the purple lotus seemed to have reached their time. It began to neither move up nor down, and slowly rotated there. Its color was astonishing, as if it had rendered the whole world in pure purple.

Horrifying arcs of lightning flashed on the purple lotus, and overall, it looked illusory, not real!

White Tiger King, Qi Daolin, Dragon Bird King, Shi Hao, Qingyi, Heizi, Xiyao, and Xiaohuang were all stunned, staring at the purple lotus flowing downstream, extremely shocked:

“Could this be the Purple Lotus of Samsara?”

“It is said that the Purple Lotus of Samsara can control life and death, and can be immortal in the cycle of reincarnation.”

“This purple lotus has come down from the ancient times. Could the rumors be true?! Is there really reincarnation in this world? It can cycle through life and death. Although the body dies, the soul lives on forever.”

……

Meng Chen can’t hear their voices now!
When he saw the purple lotus clearly, he fell into a wonderful state.

He seemed to be frozen, his face expressionless, as if even his breathing had stopped, and the world before his eyes changed.

It was not the purple world that Shi Hao, Qi Daolin, Qingyi and others saw, but a completely new world that they entered through the purple lotus.

A world that is suffering from the scourge of the dark matter in his memory!

“boom……!”

The vast land and mountains and rivers that stretch for billions of miles were destroyed and completely collapsed, turning into a huge and boundless black abyss.

“Crack…!”

The endless void exploded and the sky shattered.

Looking around, Meng Chen saw that the most powerful creatures emerged one after another. Their auras were far superior to those of the ancient Nine Nether Beasts, the Immortal Monk King, and the True Phoenix that he had seen. There were so many such creatures that it was difficult to count them.

These creatures were fighting with hideous and terrifying strange creatures. These terrifying and strange creatures had very strange shapes. Some had multiple alien heads growing on their bodies, looking hideous and creepy. Some were filled with bloody black fog and emitted a strong stench, but all of them were extremely powerful.

Meng Chen was floating in the void of this world, feeling very strange, with a sense of supreme transcendence, as if he could dominate this world, and as long as he took a step, he could reach any place in this world.

This is not to say that this world is small, but rather a feeling of detachment and self-confidence. He asked himself, if compared with the entire three thousand Dao states he had visited, even if one thousand, ten thousand, or even more three thousand Dao states were added together, they would not be as big as this world.

But that’s all. This kind of detachment only allows him to run around freely and witness the wars in various parts of the world, but he cannot intervene.

Because he does not really exist, does not exist in this world, and only serves as a witness. In the sky, tens of thousands of the strongest creatures and the weird strongest are fighting, and on the vast land, there are also armies of creatures and armies of weird people slaughtering each other.

“What era is this? Eternal times? The glorious era when kings competed for supremacy?!” Meng Chen exclaimed. There were too many powerful people.

It was vast and endless, filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Killing was eternal and continued. When Meng Chen was here, it felt like several epochs had passed in just a short period of time.

After a long period of endless killing…

With a “chi…” sound.

Purple air came from the east, and a purple light rose from the far east. Meng Chen could see clearly that it was a purple lotus.

It appeared, emitting pure purple, spreading boundlessly and coloring the entire world. Under this pure purple, the strange army was annihilated in an instant, and the strange and powerful beings in the sky all exploded into endless blood mist.

In the blink of an eye, this world returned to normal, and the killing that had lasted for endless years finally came to an end!
Countless creatures are cheering, leaping for joy, and celebrating the victory!

Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long, only a short moment.

“Rumble…”

Suddenly, this world changed again. Endless chaotic energy descended from the void outside the domain, rolling down and covering the entire world.

Endless chaos descended, and the vast sky became dark and invisible.

The purple lotus released boundless pure light, which prevented chaos from descending, and for a time formed a tense confrontation.

Chaos was pressing down outside the horizon, and the pure purple light was like a protective shield, covering this world.

“A mere purple lotus of reincarnation dares to go against the will of heaven and block the path of this emperor. Die!”

A terrifying roar shook the earth, as if representing annihilation. In the boundless outer space, stars flew out from the rolling chaos and smashed into the boundless purple light reflected by the purple lotus.

“boom……”

With a loud bang, the boundless chaos exploded, leaving a portal. It was like a door of absolute darkness, and boundless dark energy surged and overflowed from it.

“Bang bang bang…”

There were heavy footsteps coming from inside.

“Ow…”

With a roar, a huge wolf head appeared, with thick red hair and a pair of huge horns on its head, looking extremely ferocious.

It opened its bloody mouth and began to devour the purple light that was blocking the chaotic energy.

When it swallowed, the boundless void was annihilated, and the stars in the sky flew out from the chaos and fell into its mouth. It was too terrifying.

It swallows the sky and eats the stars, and refines all things in the heavens. It is an extremely terrifying creature.

The huge wolf head and bloody mouth emitted a black light, as if it could refine all tangible substances.

Under this devouring, the purple light began to twist, as if it was about to be swallowed up.

At this moment, the purple lotus showed signs of abnormality, emitting endless light that made it impossible to see clearly. Gradually, as the light faded, a human shape was revealed.

Zi Lian transformed into a human form!
He was dressed in a purple robe with fluttering sleeves and purple hair like a waterfall.

He has a tall and strong figure, a handsome appearance, long eyebrows like willows, and a pair of purple eyes as deep as the sea.

“Retreat!” He opened his lips slightly, with a smile on his face, and his every move revealed an endless detachment.

His words came true, and with a whisper, endless laws spread out, making the purple light that was about to be swallowed up become stable again.

Seeing that it couldn’t devour it, a pair of huge black horns on the red wolf’s head glowed and collided with the purple light that was blocking his descent, causing the space there to collapse.

“Roar……”

The red wolf head opened its mouth and roared, with such ferocity that it shook the past, present and future.

Then, suddenly, nine real dragons rushed out of the dark portal, pressed against the purple light, and tried to tear it apart.

Gradually, the Dark Portal faded away, and the body of this creature was completely revealed.

When Meng Chen saw it, he gasped. This… this is actually a Nine Nether Beast!

He was as black as ink, with a ferocious dragon head, a huge open mouth and sharp fangs.

This Nine Nether Beast is too powerful. It existed countless years ago and is definitely the ancestor of the Nine Nether Beast clan.

“Could the source of the darkness be this Nine Nether Beast?” Meng Chen guessed in his heart.

“broken!”

A voice as deep as the abyss was heard. It was emitted by the Nine Nether Beast.

Its pair of black horns suddenly exploded, piercing through the purple light, and the nine true dragon tails exerted force, completely shattering the purple light.

Afterwards, it slowly stepped down into the air, accompanied by endless darkness, and slowly, it turned into a human form.

He looked like an old man, wearing an old black robe that looked very ancient. The corners of his robe began to flutter, and then a huge black mist burst out.

In an instant, as he approached step by step, the surroundings were covered by darkness. It was the power of the origin of darkness that was so dense that it could not be dissolved, and boundless pressure descended along with it.

His facial features were gaunt, his body was tall, and his eyes became increasingly fiery, like two small suns, dazzling and terrifying in the darkness.

A ball of black light was swirling around him, and his aura was extremely terrifying, overwhelming the heavens and the earth!

Countless powerful creatures around were frightened and retreated instantly, all fleeing away.

Only the man transformed from the purple lotus stood still, his deep purple eyes confronting the old man transformed from the descending Nine Nether Beast.

“I call myself the Old Man of Destruction. I have destroyed hundreds of worlds, but I didn’t expect that in the 101st life, I would encounter a lotus of reincarnation that can catch up with me. You are very good, but you have blocked my way. You can only die!” The old man approached step by step.

The purple-clothed man looked up at the world-destroying old man with a half-smile, and said calmly: “Although you call yourself an emperor, you are not like me. You only have the cultivation level of a quasi-emperor, and you are still one step away from the ultimate!”

“You are killing people and harming them. To me, you are hindering my path. Therefore, I will rise up today and kill you to save all living beings.”

“Okay! If you want to come from behind and win, then show your strength.”

The old man who destroyed the world spoke in a deep voice, and his aura became more and more terrifying, as if he was about to explode at any time.

“Quasi-Emperor? Above the Immortal King, below the Immortal Emperor?”

At this moment, Meng Chen was extremely shocked. He couldn’t imagine what kind of realm that was.

He stood in this period of time and space, being there and yet not there.

He could see everything clearly, but like an outsider, no one could discover him.
