The Emperor Crawling Out of the Grave

"Emperor."

The voice is like a cuckoo crying blood, with endless sadness.

The Prison Dragon hugged Xiao Chen tightly, tears dripping down on Xiao Chen's cracked and bloodshot bones.

Three quarters of Xiao Chen's face had been destroyed, the remaining eyes trembled slightly, and then slowly opened.

"Long...er, don't cry." Xiao Chen's voice was extremely weak, and vague shadows flickered on the bone frame.

The prison dragon knew that this was a sign that the soul was about to collapse.

Xiao Chen raised his hand with difficulty, looked at the intact flower pattern on the tattered sleeve, and his eyes showed great relief.

Xiao Chen held the black knife beside him. The black knife was already full of cracks, and it looked as if it would shatter if touched lightly.

"Long'er, go back quickly."

Holding the black knife, Xiao Chen said to the prison dragon.

Prison Dragon shook her head stubbornly, this may be the first time since she met Xiao Chen that she did not listen to Xiao Chen's words.

Xiao Chen had no time to waste, the fingers of his left hand, which were thick and white, quickly formed a few seals, and pressed them on the forehead of the prison dragon.

Prison Dragon hugged Xiao Chen tightly, shaking his head desperately.

"Great Emperor, Great Emperor, let the Prison Dragon die with you, let the Prison Dragon die with you..."

The prison dragon begged bitterly with a crying voice, and the hoarse voice made people feel distressed.

But I, Xiao Chen, remained unmoved, a black light emitted from the black knife, and sucked the prison dragon in.

After Xiao Chen finished these, he stood up staggeringly.

The phantom above the bones became more and more blurred, Xiao Chen knew that he was running out of time, and the complete collapse of his soul would come soon!

Xiao Chen mobilized the last trace of strength in his body and disappeared into the void.

...

In a space battleship, the old soldier stared fixedly at the projection in front of him!

He has stood like this for a long time, and the people around him have also stood like this for a long time.

They looked at the projection in front of them, and a suffocating atmosphere appeared in the air.

The projection of that battle was captured by them.

But even seeing it with their own eyes, they couldn't believe it was real.

How could such terrifying combat power appear in this universe.

The war had ended, but everyone still couldn't recover from the shock.

Suddenly a cloud of black mist exploded in front of the soldier, and a figure with only a quarter of his flesh and blood remaining appeared here.

Everyone looked at this figure, and after being shocked, they knelt down slowly.

Because it was this person who saved their home planet and this starry sky.

Xiao Chen looked at the soldier in front of him, and took off his shabby robe.

Xiao Chen wrapped the robe over the black knife and handed it to the soldier.

"Send these two things to a place called Earth."

Xiao Chen's body swayed, as if he would fall down at any moment.

"This is the coordinates of the earth."

Xiao Chen lightly tapped the soldier's forehead with his finger.

The soldier did not resist, and he only had infinite awe and gratitude for the man in front of him.

The soldier held the black knife with both hands, as if he was holding the most precious thing in this matter.

"I, Karal, swear on the honor of a warrior, what you have entrusted, even if you are smashed to pieces, will be done."

Xiao Chen nodded, and said softly, "Thank you."

Xiao Chen's figure turned into a cloud of black mist and dissipated in the space battleship.

...

In a glorious palace on a planet.

An old soldier knelt on one knee with a black knife in both hands.

On the throne sat a graceful queen.

There is a projection in front of the Queen, which is playing the unprecedented battle.

After a long time, the queen got up, came to the old soldier, held the black knife in both hands, and said softly.

"Soldier, organize the highest-level team in the empire, and I will personally complete the will of the great hero."

...

In the void.

Xiao Chen sat cross-legged, his worries were gone.

As long as the prison dragon and Tuntun are sent back to the earth, with the huge aura of the earth, they will recover one day.

And what I have to do now is to die here quietly.

Xiao Chen looked at those floating corpses in the void, and smiled coldly.

"Who dares to rebel against what this emperor has accomplished."

This battle, Xiao Chen won, and the legend of invincibility continued.

But later, probably no new myth was born.

Xiao Chen sat quietly in the void, gently closed his eyes, his heart was at peace that he had never felt before.

Suddenly a voice rang in Xiao Chen's ear.

"Do you think you've won like this?"

Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly opened.

A huge and boundless phantom appeared in front of Xiao Chen's eyes.

It turned out to be the soul of that bug.

But Chongzi's soul was not much better than Xiao Chen's, it was also a blur, hovering on the verge of collapse.

Xiao Chen looked at Chongzi coldly and said, "I won."

The worm laughed loudly, and then it fell silent with a smile. Indeed, it was defeated.

And he was convinced of his defeat.

Chongzi looked at Xiao Chen and said, "I can save you, but it depends on whether you dare, haha..."

The worm's tone was full of banter, and then its spirit slowly melted away.

And the huge floating corpses in the void also began to melt at this moment.

The boundless darkness gradually spread, like a thick black cloth, making people breathless.

Soon countless stars were covered by thick darkness and fell into the eternal night.

The spirit of the bug joked before it completely dissipated.

"Does the Emperor like to make choices?" Chongzi continued without giving Xiao Chen any time to answer.

"Hahaha... Absorb these phantom energy of the void, and you will become just like me, a monster that only knows how to devour."

"If it is not absorbed, this starry sky will be covered until all living beings are extinct."

"How do you choose? Poor Emperor! I used to be just like you!"

The bug laughed and disappeared, completely dissipating in this universe.

Xiao Chen stared at the spreading black gas, and froze on the spot.

Winning is winning, but in the end it was this ending.

From the last sentence of Big Chongzi, it is not difficult to infer that he once faced this choice.

If he absorbs the black air, he will also become a monster that only knows how to devour, and this starry sky will not be spared.

Without absorbing the black energy, this starry sky will enter the eternal night, and it will not escape the end of nirvana.

This seems to be the same ending, the only difference is in whose hands this starry sky will be buried.

Whether it was swallowed up by Xiao Chen who turned into a monster, or entered the eternal night and dissipated along time.

Killing and punishing one's heart is nothing more than this.

...

Earth, Shinto twenty-four years, winter solstice.

This winter was extremely cold, and even the southern part of China was covered with a thick layer of ice.

With bare feet, Goudan was lying on a chair in the yard, staggering.

The beautiful face is full of loneliness.
