The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 1552: Successful Passage

Chapter 1552: Chapter 1552: Successful Passage

"The Road of Slaughter is my creation. Because it was too weak, I intentionally created the Road of Ten Thousand Slaughters to help it grow rapidly."

The Extreme Emperor answered truthfully: "However, I am not the original body. The original body created multiple Daos, and I am merely one of them."

Not the original body?

Everyone was shocked. In other words, the Extreme Emperor had multiple split bodies comparable to the Road of Slaughter?

Then how strong must his original body be?

Qin Jun was also taken aback but maintained a calm expression, revealing no signs of inner turmoil.

"Where is your original body?" Qin Jun asked curiously. As for the strength of the original body, he didn’t bother to ask since it would be pointless.

"I don’t know. The original body returns once every ten billion years. For the next visit, it would probably take another 3.3 billion years," the Extreme Emperor hesitated, as if calculating the time.

Qin Jun sighed internally. It seemed that the Extreme Emperor, like the Su Emperor, was boundlessly powerful.

"For certain reasons, I am undergoing recultivation. My cultivation is as such now, but I will soon catch up to you."

Qin Jun finally answered the Extreme Emperor’s question, causing him to narrow his eyes.

What kind of reasons could cause the Heavenly Emperor to recultivate?

The Extreme Emperor was puzzled, as were Ran Min, Nvwa, Xuanyuan Wuji, and the others.

"Are you leaving next?" the Extreme Emperor asked.

"Oh? Do you wish to persuade me to stay?" Qin Jun asked with a smile.

"I can sense that your body contains multiple Daos. Why don’t we discuss Dao together?" the Extreme Emperor nodded and said. This man was even colder than the Su Emperor and showed no emotion regardless of what he said.

Discussing Dao?

Qin Jun’s eyes lit up, and he agreed without hesitation: "Fine!"

Through such discussions, one could gain significant insights, especially when the counterpart was an eternal power like the Extreme Emperor.

"Let’s begin!"

The Extreme Emperor nodded, entirely straightforward without any unnecessary delays.

Qin Jun immediately leaped into the air, flying into the starry sky. Below him appeared the Supreme Nine-Dragon Throne, carrying him aloft.

With his power restricted, he could only rely on the Supreme Nine-Dragon Throne to fly.

The Extreme Emperor flew to the same altitude as him and began first: "The Road of Slaughter, to achieve Dao through slaughter, through the intent and heart of killing. Merging with the Chaotic Primordial Realm, turning Dao law into killing itself, gathering spiritual Qi of heaven and earth as its medium, penetrating the soul of all beings..."

His voice was mesmerizing. The very first word he uttered caused Qin Jun to become dazed.

The disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Academy were even more entranced, collapsing on the ground and mumbling fragments of the Extreme Emperor’s words. Yet, none could keep up with his speech. The difference in their realms was so vast that it was already a mercy they hadn’t been obliterated.

Ran Min, Nvwa, and Liwu Demon Venerable began to seriously listen. Such an opportunity, rare over billions of years, was one they wouldn’t want to miss—even Ran Min, who harbored great enmity toward the Extreme Emperor, wasn’t willing to let it pass.

The Road of Slaughter, though differing from the Road of Carnage by just a single character, carried a significant gap in meaning. The Road of Carnage involved not just slaughter but warfare, whereas the Road of Slaughter was pure and unadulterated killing.

The desolate land resonated with sounds of slaughter, sandstorms twirled toward the heavens, growing to overwhelming proportions.

Time passed, second by second, minute by minute. Without a sunrise or sunset, the desolate land echoed only with the majestic voice of the Extreme Emperor.

During this period, several powerful individuals broke through to the final trial, only to be drawn to the Extreme Emperor’s voice. In their daze, they were attacked and killed by the trial’s guardian—a truly tragic end.

About five days later, it was Qin Jun’s turn to lecture on Dao.

Possessing the Flame Dao, the Time Dao, the Fortune Dao, and the Split-Body Dao, Qin Jun might not have high cultivation, but his comprehension of Dao far surpassed what most beings could ever dream of.

Through their discussion of Dao, both parties gained insights, and even Nvwa and Ran Min benefited significantly. Liwu Demon Venerable, on the other hand, gained less.

As for Xuanyuan Wuji and others, they were already in a dazed state, lost in boundless confusion and unable to break free.

No one knew how long had passed.

It felt like both an instant and an eternity, as though eons had come and gone.

Qin Jun and the Extreme Emperor concluded their discussion, gazing at each other. The Extreme Emperor sighed and said, "Heavenly Emperor, just how many Daos do you command?"

Even during his Wuji Chaotic Primordial Supreme realm, he had touched only the fragments of Dao’s tail, incomparable to Qin Jun. Even though Qin Jun was in recultivation, it was something the Extreme Emperor had never heard of.

Both Nvwa and Ran Min looked at Qin Jun with admiration. As beings who had achieved Great Detachment within the Primordial realm, they each commanded only one Dao. They couldn’t comprehend how a Wuji Chaotic Primordial Supreme could master multiple Daos.

Could it be that Qin Jun was a child of Dao?

No.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him a child of the Primordial itself!

"That’s a secret. Now, do you finally believe that I’ll catch up to you soon?" Qin Jun said smugly, showing no concern that the Extreme Emperor would attempt to slay him.

It was an indescribable bond of trust.

Like the connection between him and the Su Emperor, among the three of them, there were no grievances—only rivalry and mutual encouragement to push their growth. Naturally, they would not harm one another.

"I’ll await you. By then, let’s seek out the Su Emperor and have another battle," the Extreme Emperor said as a rare smile appeared on his face.

Liwu Demon Venerable was struck with a sense of nostalgia, as if transported back to the dawn of Chaos, when all beings gazed upon the Three Emperors’ legendary battles. At that time, Qin Jun’s brilliance had been etched into his soul.

"Well, it’s time for me to leave."

Qin Jun waved his hand, saying he had stayed nearly nine years on the Road of Ten Thousand Slaughters. He had no idea how much time had passed in the Ancient Sage Emperor Path. Now, his longing to return burned brightly, allowing no delay.

The Extreme Emperor nodded and said, "The trial reward for the Road of Ten Thousand Slaughters is the Kill Orb. Do you want it?"

"Of course I do. How much can I take?" Qin Jun’s eyes lit up. The Kill Orb was the main reason Ren Wo Xiao had sent him here; he certainly hadn’t forgotten.

"You can take as many as you want," the Extreme Emperor said with apparent indifference, showing great generosity regarding the Kill Orb.

Hearing this, Qin Jun’s eyes grew slightly greedy as he gazed at the Extreme Emperor, as if staring at a treasure vault.

...

Approximately three hours passed.

Xuanyuan Wuji and the others gradually regained consciousness, waking one by one and sitting up in confusion. Their memories returned only when they spotted Qin Jun’s figure.

"Alright, get ready to leave."

Qin Jun smiled. These disciples would one day serve the Great Qin Heavenly Court loyally, so he naturally wouldn’t neglect them.

The disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Academy quickly gathered around, their faces red and filled with embarrassment.

Especially Xuanyuan Wuji, who kept his head low, unwilling to meet Qin Jun’s gaze.

To them, the Heavenly Emperor was a legend they’d heard of since childhood—a figure of faith and the progenitor. To embarrass themselves before the progenitor was humiliating beyond measure, making them wish they could bury themselves.

"Damn it..."

Xuanyuan Wuji deeply regretted it. This was an unprecedented opportunity, and he had squandered it. Not to mention the Heavenly Emperor, but the Extreme Emperor surpassed even their academy head. He’d never heard of the Extreme Emperor giving a lecture before.

This might have been the one and only chance.

What a pity.

"Let’s go!"

The Extreme Emperor waved his sleeve, and instantly, everyone’s vision went dark. Their feet felt as if suspended in mid-air, a sense of weightlessness engulfing them. Fortunately, the sensation didn’t last long.

In the next moment, Qin Jun opened his eyes and found himself standing on a desolate island. Above his head swirled rolling Chaos energy, while endless darkness stretched out in the distant cosmos.

Rumble!

Before he could carefully observe his surroundings, the power within his body erupted like a breached dam, surging uncontrollably. His cultivation climbed higher and higher.

The others experienced the same, their power recovering and growing to varying extents, except for Ran Min and Nvwa, whose power had already returned during their ultimate awakening.
