Chapter 1824 Good people will fight to the end
No wonder he didn't respond at all when Chen Xuan called him earlier.
They thought he was aloof, but he was actually plotting a sneak attack.
Actually, he's already dead!
"We were just yelling at him like idiots for ages!"
Chen Xuan put his hand to his forehead, suddenly realizing that he had been incredibly stupid.
Or perhaps, it's a bit too cautious!
Of course, it's hard to say whether this guy faked his death.
Chen Xuan slammed the glass jade golden cauldron against him twice.
With a snap, the man's arm was severed.
After confirming that the other person was dead, the two continued to approach each other.
"Amitabha Buddha, well said, well said, I'm so sorry!"
Chen Xuan clasped his hands together and waved them, looking a little embarrassed.
After all, he had broken someone's hand, and Chen Xuan found a way to reattach it.
This was a man, not very tall, only about 1.7 meters, wearing a robe that seemed to belong to some unknown world, family, or sect, and looked quite elegant and noble.
His skin had a grayish-white hue, after all, he had been dead for countless millennia, and his body was extremely cold.
At least, the moment Chen Xuan touched his body, it felt like he had touched a block of ice that had been frozen for millions of years.
He had a jade pendant hanging from his waist. His name was engraved on the front of the pendant, and the words "Tian Lian" were engraved on the back, which was probably the name of his sect.
As for which world among the myriad realms this Heavenly Refinement Sect belongs to, that remains unknown.
Chen Xuan also found a storage bag on him, which contained some things that had not decayed despite the passage of millions of years.
After removing the storage bag, I found some information about this person's identity inside.
"The Heavenly Refinement Sect is one of the top three sects in the Heavenly Realm, and it has several Supreme Beings within its ranks."
"This person was a disciple of a supreme master of the Heavenly Refinement Sect. He was a participant in the previous Emperor's Road competition and was highly regarded. It was thought that he could at least reach the forty-fifth level, but unexpectedly, he died here."
Through the contents of the storage bag, Chen Xuan learned some of the reasons.
In fact, of the first four levels of the Emperor's Path, only the first level is relatively easy.
The remaining two, three, and four levels can be described as either easy or very difficult!
If you just give up, you can easily get through these hurdles.
For example, in the second level, as long as you don't look for the divine fire, you can hide in one place for forty-nine days.
Then, you can easily advance to the third level.
However, if you are looking for divine fire and have very high requirements for it, then it's hard to say.
For example, Chen Xuan once encountered a divine fire with the strength of a quasi-supreme being.
If it were any other Great Emperor-level expert, they would have been annihilated by that Quasi-Supreme Divine Fire.
The same applies to the third level.
If you simply give up and hide in a cave on the shore of the underworld, you will automatically advance to the fourth level after eighty-one days.
Even the Great God Emperor can advance.
However, not giving up is extremely demanding.
For example, the corpse in front of Chen Xuan was a disciple of the Heavenly Refinement Sect, a supreme expert in the Heavenly Realm, and was also an outstanding figure among the many Great Emperors.
Logically speaking, with this person's talent and strength, he should be able to reach at least level 44.
But he died here.
It can only be said that he was able to find a spring in the Yellow Springs because he was strong enough.
But because he wasn't strong enough, he eventually died here.
Strangely, the corpse did not decompose for hundreds of millions of years. Apart from the skin turning grayish-white and the flesh hardening, it did not look any different overall.
Chen Xuan dug a hole next to him, buried him, and then erected a monument for him.
"Brother, as compensation for breaking your hand, I've given you a proper burial and erected a monument for you. I've done more than enough."
Chen Xuan placed three incense sticks in front of the tombstone, but did not light them. After all, they were in the water, and the incense could not be lit; it was just a ritual.
"The person has been dead for 360 million years, why bother with all this?" Dugu Rou didn't understand, Chen Xuan wasn't related to this person.
“You don’t understand, this is a man’s romance,” Chen Xuan said.
"Then why don't you go all the way and be a good person next time you encounter a corpse like this?"
Dugu Rou pouted.
They continued deeper.
As it turned out, they ran into each other again not far away.
This time, however, it was a woman with a good figure and a beautiful face. Her body was also incorruptible, hardened, and her skin was grayish-white.
"You jinxed me, and you were right about it."
Chen Xuan casually made a couple of sarcastic remarks to Dugu Rou.
He then found something about the woman’s identity on her.
This person is a descendant of a supreme family in the Immortal Realm and a participant in the 18th Emperor's Road Tournament.
The 18th Imperial Road was the one before that, which was the one at the end of the barbaric era.
She was very talented; otherwise, she wouldn't have made it this far. But unfortunately, like the disciple from the Heavenly Refinement Sect in the Heavenly Realm before her, she overestimated herself and froze to death here.
Chen Xuan, being a good person to the end, went all the way and buried her, even erecting a monument and lighting three incense sticks.
Next, they continued to venture deeper into the area.
During this time, we encountered more bodies that had frozen to death here.
Without exception, those who have made it this far are all highly talented individuals.
In fact, some of these people, if they were alive today, would probably be supreme beings.
Unfortunately, it's all about timing and fate. No matter how talented you are, if you encounter an accident, it will all be for nothing.
"so cold……"
The two continued walking for less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before Dugu Rou started shivering again.
Even she found it hard to bear.
"Have you noticed that the deeper we go, the colder our bodies feel, but the warmer the water around us gets?"
Chen Xuan spoke.
"I discovered that a long time ago, but what's the use of heating water when my body is as cold as ice, like I'm about to freeze?"
Dugu Rou was so cold that her body was trembling.
Boom!
Just as Chen Xuan was about to say, "If you feel cold, lean on me,"
Suddenly, his whole body jolted as he heard a strong, powerful heartbeat!
The sound of his heartbeat was right beside him.
Chen Xuan suddenly turned his head to look at Dugu Rou's heart.
Suddenly, Dugu Rou, who had been shivering from the cold and covered in goosebumps, was no longer cold, and all her goosebumps disappeared.
Chen Xuan even felt a warm heat emanating from her body.
The heat even radiated onto Chen Xuan.
She was like a furnace.
"Okay, I'm not cold anymore."
Dugu Rou was pleasantly surprised. At the crucial moment, the Angel's Heart worked its magic, dispelling the cold energy within her body.
My heart only beat two more times than usual, and all the discomfort in my body disappeared!
