Chapter 562: The Torture of Endless Reincarnation, the True Origin of the Incomplete Ancient Talisman, Emperor Luangu!

It must be said that the nineteenth layer of Hell Star was extremely bizarre.

It didn't have that kind of straightforward danger, yet it was subtly driving people mad.

Next, Jun Xiaoyao seemed to have experienced endless reincarnation.

He was a certain high-spirited young cultivator, only to have his bones buried on the Emperor Road in the end.

He was a certain youth who wanted to revitalize his family, only to bleed ruthlessly on the Emperor Road.

Even, he experienced being a certain infatuated woman who stepped onto the Emperor Road, wanting to pursue the prodigy she admired.

The result was that she never saw that prodigy even once until she died; that prodigy didn't even know of her existence.

Resentment, hatred, unwillingness!

All kinds of negative emotions, like poison, began to infect Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness.

This was the unwillingness of the countless living beings whose bones were buried on the Emperor Road.

Why should some be high and mighty?

And why should they be the withered bones paving the way?

This power of resentment was extremely terrifying.

Even Jun Xiaoyao's Three-Life Primordial Spirit actually showed faint signs of turning black.

"Great Sun Tathagata!"

Jun Xiaoyao activated the Present Tathagata Sutra; a majestic Great Sun Tathagata Dharma image emerged, wanting to suppress the evil spirits.

But that monstrous resentment was too terrifying; even the Great Sun Tathagata found it difficult to suppress.

"This nineteenth layer of Hell Star is indeed dangerous. Although there is no blatant murderous intent, it kills invisibly in the dark."

Jun Xiaoyao also sighed.

Even someone with a strong cultivation base would be very fragile when facing this kind of consciousness pollution; one careless moment and their defenses would be broken.

Jun Xiaoyao seemed to have reincarnated for thousands of lives.

But in the outside world, only a little over a month had passed.

Within this month, the prodigies who had been training on Hell Star had mostly returned.

The entire Hell Star was about to close.

Mu Yuehan, Jin Chixiaopeng, and the little fairy transformed from the King of Immortal Marrow had also returned.

Some prodigies looked at the little fairy with fiery eyes, but dared not make any overstepping moves.

Because this little fairy belonged to Jun Xiaoyao.

Although no one knew if Jun Xiaoyao could come out of the nineteenth layer of Hell Star.

But after witnessing Jun Xiaoyao's strength, no one would test him again, because one careless moment could cost them their lives.

"It's been over a month, and the Jun Clan's Divine Child still hasn't come out."

"Yeah, I heard the Huangtian Battlefield at the end of the eighteenth pass of the Emperor Road is about to open. At that time, prodigies from all paths will gather there to strive for the Seal of Proving the Dao and obtain the title of Emperor Road King."

"The Huangtian Battlefield—that is the ultimate trial ground for the Emperor Road of the Huangtian Immortal Domain, possessing endless opportunities. If one can obtain the legendary Seal of Proving the Dao, their future achievement will be at least a Quasi-Emperor."

"If the Jun Clan's Divine Child participates, not to mention directly becoming the Emperor Road King, he could at least obtain a Seal of Proving the Dao."

"But looking at the current situation, it's still uncertain whether the Jun Clan's Divine Child can come out."

The prodigies in the arena were all discussing.

If one could obtain a Seal of Proving the Dao, it would be extremely beneficial for stepping onto the Ultimate Ancient Road later.

And if one could obtain the title of Emperor Road King, it could almost be said that they were the leader of this Emperor Road in the Huangtian Immortal Domain, and would have endless glory and honor added to them.

With Jun Xiaoyao's current display of strength, he was one of the people most likely to compete for this honor.

But now, over a month had passed, and Hell Star had even closed.

Yet Jun Xiaoyao hadn't shown any movement at all.

If it weren't for Jun Xiaoyao's previous performance being too dazzling, many people would even think that Jun Xiaoyao was truly going to fall.

However, the situation was indeed as some people thought.

Jun Xiaoyao's situation was indeed not very good.

The reason he was able to come out of the Bronze Immortal Palace safely before, besides various factors.

The most important was the karma between the Bronze Immortal Palace and the Ghost-Faced Woman.

And he had an unclear and undefined karma with the Ghost-Faced Woman.

Because of this layer of relationship, Jun Xiaoyao could treat the Bronze Immortal Palace as his own home.

If someone else entered, even a Supreme, they would be wiped out.

But the nineteenth layer of Hell Star was different.

This incredible place had no karma with Jun Xiaoyao.

In other words, Jun Xiaoyao had to rely on himself to pass this trial.

For the outside world, it was only a short month or so.

But for Jun Xiaoyao, trapped in the nineteenth layer of Hell Star, it felt like thousands of lifetimes of reincarnation had passed.

He possessed the bodies of countless prodigies who had fallen on the Emperor Road, and each time, he died with endless despair.

Once or twice, he might not feel anything.

But when a person experienced that kind of endless despair, that kind of death like an abyss, millions of times.

No one could guarantee that they wouldn't go mad.

At the very least, if it were any other prodigy, even a Supreme, it would be impossible for them to hold out longer than Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao's invincible Dao heart had already experienced countless tempering and would not collapse so easily.

But even so, facing this kind of endless torture, even Jun Xiaoyao felt somewhat mentally exhausted.

"A truly torturous trial." Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

His Primordial Spirit power began to gradually fade, and layers of pitch-black resentment and sin were stained onto his Primordial Spirit.

Finally, after experiencing ten thousand lifetimes of reincarnation, Jun Xiaoyao's Primordial Spirit was almost about to turn pure black.

At that moment, even Jun Xiaoyao himself was powerless to save the situation.

Just as Jun Xiaoyao was preparing his final trump card for a desperate fight.

An incomplete ancient talisman suddenly emerged.

"This is..."

Jun Xiaoyao was startled and remembered.

This was the half-piece of incomplete ancient talisman he had seized from Wang Teng when he was in the Bronze Immortal Palace.

This incomplete ancient talisman had the character "Luan" (Chaos) carved on it and possessed the power to protect the Primordial Spirit.

Even if Wang Teng's Primordial Spirit was slashed, he could use this to recover.

And now, this incomplete ancient talisman emitted a faint light once again, like a spark in the darkness.

As the incomplete ancient talisman was activated, vaguely, Jun Xiaoyao seemed to see a majestic figure gradually emerging.

In his ear came a sonorous and powerful voice, carrying an endless, tenacious will.

"In the first half of my life, I fought ten thousand battles, and in all ten thousand, I was defeated, never winning a single victory!"

"After ten thousand defeats, I turned from Saint to Demon, reversed Yin and Yang, overturned life and death, and achieved the creation!"

"In the second half of my life, I fought ten thousand battles, and in all ten thousand, I was victorious, never having tasted a single defeat!"

The deafening voice echoed in Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness.

That half-piece of incomplete ancient talisman also released immeasurable divine brilliance, illuminating this vast darkness.

Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness was startled, waking up like a sleeping lion.

These words reminded him of a person who could be called a legend among Emperors.

Emperor Luangu!

An Emperor whose life was full of bumps and who had tasted ten thousand defeats.

It could be said that he was an anomaly among Emperors.

Other Emperors were stunning the universe from birth, with glory added to them.

But he rose from the humble, recovered from the grassroots, step by step.

In the first half of his life, he never won a victory; in the second half, he never tasted a defeat.

Jun Xiaoyao had also read about the deeds of Emperor Luangu in some classics before.

And at this moment, Jun Xiaoyao's consciousness shook as he looked at the incomplete ancient talisman.

Looking at the character "Luan" carved on the ancient talisman, Jun Xiaoyao could finally be certain.

This incomplete ancient talisman was indeed the Emperor Weapon of the former Emperor Luangu, the Luangu Emperor Talisman! ===== CHAPTER 563 =====
