There were thousands of colors in the sky, and the light of flowers flowed around. Auspicious signs filled the air, connecting the Jade Lake. Holy lotuses bloomed, and divine rainbows filled the sky.
After an unknown amount of time, the discussion of corpses and the Dao finally came to an end.
"The Dao is formless, and it gradually drifts away. When it reaches the extreme, it will rebel, and when it returns, it is the one that escapes."
The Little Stone Emperor explained Lu Zhan's Dao and nodded. Then, he suddenly waved his sleeves, and with a bang, a tomb split open. The Lunar Shadow Demon Blade flew out and was captured by him. He handed it to Lu Zhan and said, "Very good explanation. This Stone Weapon is for you."
In the distance, Keke had already woken up. Her eyes immediately widened. The Little Stone Emperor handed a Stone Weapon to the Otherworld Primogenitor so easily.
The Stone Corpse, the Floating King, and the others were also startled and revealed expressions of envy. They did not expect the Little Stone Emperor to be so generous, giving away the weapon he used when he was alive just like that.
As for Lu Zhan himself, he did not feel any joy or worry. He seemed to have comprehended something just now. He calmly received the Lunar Shadow Demon Blade, and even when he looked at the Great Dao imprint of the Otherworld Primogenitor in the seven corpses, his expression became incomparably calm.
"The end of the origin can be a grain of sand, a blade of grass, or a flower. Everything is the Dao. You and I are the Dao."
The Little Stone Emperor looked at one of the corpses among the Chaotic Lands Five Kings and said, "Very insightful.
Speaking until here, the second tomb suddenly split open, and a King Stone Sword flew out. He held it with one hand, and then handed it to the corpse.
Everyone revealed strange expressions. This Little Stone Emperor was not just a normal kind of generous, casually giving away the King Saint Sword. The Golem Kings all knew that they could not act so calmly and were reluctant to do so.
In the distance, Xiao Chen was also startled. This Little Stone Emperor had really reached an inconceivable level. Could it be that these Stone Weapons were useless to him? Or had he truly fallen and no longer needed these supreme treasures?
"The Dao is natural. There is no need to sigh about the Dao. There is no need to talk about the Dao. You and I are not the Dao, but the Dao …"
The Little Stone Emperor kept repeating these words. Then, he sighed and said, "It really makes one wish to continue. My heart resonates. Is there a continuation?"
However, the corpse of the Chaotic Lands Five Kings sat there quietly without moving. It didn't respond at all.
The Little Stone Emperor's face was full of disappointment and regret. He said, "Unfortunately, you died too early and weren't able to perfect it."
"Bang … …"
The third tomb cracked open, and a giant seal flew out from within. Without hesitation, Little Stone Emperor handed it over to the corpse of one of the Five Kings of the Chaotic Lands.
Everyone was incomparably shocked. This was a stone imprint personally refined by the Little Stone Emperor, and it was a sect's supreme treasure. It was well-known among Stone Weapons, and they never expected that it would be casually gifted out by him. This was truly extravagant.
"Little Stone Emperor, could it be that the essentials of our Grand Dao are not worthy of your attention?"
When the Stone Corpse saw that the Little Stone Emperor was no longer handing out Stone Soldiers, he couldn't help but growl in a low voice. His expression was extremely unkind.
"Your Dao conforms to the norm and cannot enlighten me. On the other hand, although their Dao might not surpass yours, it can enlighten me …"
The Little Stone Emperor was calm and unruffled. He calmly sat on the bluestone and exuded a boundless pressure.
"Enlighten you? What exactly do you want to do?"
The stone corpse was extremely vigilant. He then shouted, "How can you understand my Heavenly Dao? How can you jump to conclusions and say that it conforms to the norm?"
The Little Stone Emperor didn't reply and swept his gaze over the seven kings and seven corpses.
Ancestor Xuankong sneered and said, "So you didn't divide the Stone Weapons according to our Grand Dao, but according to the Grand Dao that is useful to you. What exactly do you want to do?"
"Discussing corpses and the Grand Dao, we will all ascend together."
Hearing this, Day Corpse sneered and said, "What a great tone. You are a dead man, so how can you ascend? Is this conversation spanning millions of years just to satisfy your vanity?"
Lu Zhan was silent for a long time before he suddenly said, "He didn't die!"
"What?"
The Stone Grinding Beast immediately revealed a shocked expression and shouted, "He didn't die?"
At this time, Dan Jun, who was also born before the archaic era and returned more than 100,000 years ago, suddenly said, "You didn't die. You have always been sleeping in the tomb!"
At this moment, both Lu Zhan and Dan Jun thought of something from the archaic era and came to this conclusion.
Not far away, Xiao Chen and Ke were very shocked. The Little Stone Emperor didn't die — this was too shocking! At the same time, they thought of the old skeleton and the stone crow's words. They had also mentioned the archaic era more than once, and now it was confirmed like this.
Ancestor Xuankong, the Stone Grinding Beast, and the Three-Eyed Stone King were all filled with killing intent at this moment. After knowing the truth, all of them were afraid. This was the legendary Little Stone Emperor, unrivaled in the world. If he wanted to harm them, he could use the world's third stone mirror to kill him. This was an extremely terrifying and dangerous thing.
"You are all wrong. I have indeed fallen. This is a conversation spanning thousands of years. I am connected to the past and the present, and I have already calculated everything. I left behind a strand of my imprint to wait for you."
The Little Stone Emperor was terrifyingly calm.
"Who the hell killed you?"
The stone corpses and the others asked cautiously. They really wanted to know the truth.
Not far away, Xiao Chen and Ke were also listening attentively. They also wanted to know the answer.
"I killed myself."
The dragon robe on the Little Stone Emperor's body fluttered, but his body was as still as a rock.
"You … How is this possible?!"
"Nonsense!"
Everyone was shocked. Although they didn't believe it, they still couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Why did you kill yourself?"
Lu Zhan asked.
"What do you want to do?"
The stone corpses were even more cautious and cautious.
"Walking on a hopeless path, what's the point of living? I will never see the light of day. I might as well end it myself."
The Little Stone Emperor was neither happy nor worried. He spoke very calmly.
No one would think that he had a negative outlook on life. They immediately thought that he might have chosen to end his life because he couldn't make any progress on the path of cultivation.
"You were reborn?"
The Stone Grinding Beast asked uncertainly. The others were all moved.
The Little Stone Emperor didn't answer. He was silent, like a statue that had existed for eternity, not moving at all.
"You killed yourself to break through, and now you were reborn …"
Lu Zhan tried to ask this, because he wasn't sure either.
The unrivaled Little Stone Emperor had chosen to commit suicide and end his own life. This was simply unimaginable. It had to be known that when he was alive, he had already stood at the very peak of the world. Someone like him, who could look down on the world, was actually willing to let go of everything that had happened in the past.
If this was really the case, it would require great courage. Among the kings present, who could do this? They were immortal and undying. Who could give up their life? Who dared to start all over again?
This required unimaginable willpower, and even more so, an unparalleled boldness to let go of everything in the past, to forget the glory of the past, to start from a mortal, and to start all over again.
Throughout the ages, who dared to do this? Only the Little Stone Emperor!
Silence was equivalent to tacit agreement. Everyone was shocked.
After a long time, the stone corpse stood up eerily and said, "Unfortunately, you wasted millions of years of hard work, but it was all in vain. Otherwise, you wouldn't have discussed the path of the dead with us. In the end, you still couldn't break through.
"You're right. I haven't even been reborn. My strength is not as good as before."
Ancestor Xuankong laughed loudly. The uneasiness in his heart lessened a little. However, he knew that the other was not an ordinary person. Since he dared to face them, it meant that he could protect himself and recover completely in the future.
"You went through so much trouble and used the worlds as nodes to build this great tomb. So it was for yourself, to protect you, to welcome your rebirth …"
At this moment, everyone understood why this tomb was so majestic that even the Golem King had to spend so much effort to build it.
"You're only half right. This is a conversation that transcends eons …"
Hearing this, Lu Zhan frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
"The tomb contains my past body, but it doesn't protect my new body."
Dan Jun glanced around and said, "You're saying that you transcended eons to talk to us, but the new you hasn't appeared and hasn't fought with us yet?"
"You can say that, it's a very equal conversation."
"I, I advise you to hide him well, or else it'll be very dangerous …"
The Stone Grinder's eyes flashed fiercely.
"Billions of years ago, I killed myself. I've been waiting for this day for a very long time. There are seven great tombs here, and now the seven kings and seven corpses are meeting …"
Lu Zhan felt a chill and shouted, "So what? What do you want to do?"
"I want to borrow everyone's hands to give me a push and help me take a step forward …"
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
"Which step do you want to take?"
The Three-Eyed Golem King's expression was extremely ugly.
Everyone had a bad premonition. Everything was within the little Stone Emperor's control. Their arrival had long since been discovered, and everything had already been arranged. This might not only be a conversation that transcended the millennia, but could also transcend the millennia to seize their lives!
"You're worrying too much. I don't want to kill you, and I don't have the ability to do so. Even if I'm called Little Stone Emperor, we're still cultivating in the same world. Mo said that when the Seven Golem Kings work together, even if the five of them work together, they'll still be invincible. No one in this world can be your opponent …"
"Then what do you want?"
"I want to borrow the supreme divine power of all the kings to refine my true body! I want to borrow the Dao of all the kings to make my dao seal perfect! "
"How arrogant. You said it yourself that when the five Golem Kings work together, they'll be invincible. Now that the seven of us are here, you dare to have any ideas about us?"
"If it were any other place, I naturally wouldn't be able to do anything to you, but the seven great tombs here have exhausted my efforts."
The seven kings were shocked and were about to act, but they suddenly felt great danger, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
"An unparalleled killing formation from the primeval era can trap a Stoneman King. I've built seven great tombs here, and with forty-nine layers of killing formations, it won't be a problem to trap you for a hundred thousand years!"
"You …"
Everyone's expression changed!
Forty-nine supreme killing formations. This place was simply a land of death. They couldn't break through no matter what.
"I won't let you be trapped here for ten thousand years for no reason. If I succeed, I'll impart all the supreme Dao I've comprehended to you without reservation. If I fail and die, all the treasures here will belong to you, including the Three Emperor Mirror, which was ranked third in ancient times. I'm sure you'll know a bit about its origins …"
"I, Stone Sharpening, have never respected the heavens or the earth. I won't be manipulated by others …"
The Stone Sharpening Beast was the first to resist.
However, one of the great tombs suddenly shone brightly. Seven supreme killing formations were activated at the same time, and he disappeared in an instant. The first great tomb cracked open and swallowed him inside.
"Everyone, please enter the tomb!"
At this moment, the little Stone Emperor stood up and swept his gaze over everyone. The seven demonic stars above his head and the Three Emperor Mirror slowly rotated.
One great tomb had seven killing formations that completely sealed this place. There wasn't a single gap that could be broken through.
This kind of power made everyone furious. The seven Golem Kings were actually being forced to enter the tomb!
"Chi …"
The Three-Eyed Golem King's third eye suddenly opened and shot out a dazzling golden light that could pierce through the past and the future. He wanted to open a passage and leave this place.
However, the killing formations were unparalleled and sealed everything. Even his king's third eye was powerless and couldn't shatter the void.
"Chi, chi, chi …"
He let out a furious roar and shot his third eye at the little Stone Emperor. The resplendent golden light illuminated the void and submerged the area.
However, when a smooth stone mirror reflected the light back, his roar stopped as the same attack was launched at him.
"Swish …"
With a flash of light, the seven great formations displayed their might. The second great tomb cracked open, and he was swallowed up. The Golem King had entered the tomb. This kind of method was truly astonishing. The remaining five kings all had unsightly expressions.
In the distance, Xiao Chen was also astonished. Keke's little mouth was opened so wide that a walnut could be stuffed inside. At the same time, when they looked at the old Daoist beside them, their gazes became even more complicated and cautious.
"Everyone, please enter the tomb."
The little Stone Emperor placed his hands behind his back and said to the remaining five kings, "I will repay you in the future."
Even if he would repay them in the future, the Golem Kings wouldn't be happy with forcing them into the tomb like this. The five kings' expressions were extremely gloomy.
"I, Xuankong, will never obey you!"
The Xuankong ancestor wielded the golden stone sword and slashed down, unleashing endless laws and order.
In the end, it was all for naught. The Little Stone Emperor had long since made preparations for this place, and he had poured a great deal of effort into it. The third great tomb split open, and rumbling sounds could be heard as seven grand formations were activated, swallowing up Patriarch Xuankong.
"Kings, please enter the tomb!"
It was still the same words.
Lu Zhan let out a long sigh. In the end, he walked toward the fourth tomb. The tomb cracked open automatically and sucked him inside.
Afterward, Dan Jun and the nameless Golem King also went forward. The stone corpses were furious, but they had no choice but to be forced into the seventh tomb.
"Brothers, please return to your positions!"
The little Stone Emperor gestured to the seven corpses.
Strictly speaking, the seven corpses didn't have any sentience and could be controlled by him. So, after he spoke, they all flew up and sat cross-legged above the seven great tombs.
Forcing the seven kings into the tombs — this kind of thing really happened. Xiao Chen felt that it was very unreal. This little Stone Emperor was indeed heaven-defying.
Could it be that he could see through millions of years and foresee what would happen today before he died? Perhaps this was the true manifestation of being able to see through the past and present!
The Little Stone Emperor walked to the center of the seven great tombs. With a bang, the dragon robe on his body shattered, and he transformed into a ray of divine sense. Then, he tore open the central ground, and a tall body that was half flesh and half stone rose up.
At the same time, the seven tombs seemed to be burning. They released boundless divine light that soared into the sky.
"Little Stone Emperor, are you trying to refine us? That's impossible. You will die first! "
"No, I'm just borrowing your strength."
The seven tombs shot out seven dazzling beams of light toward the huge body made of half flesh and half stone.
Xiao Chen felt very strange. Why didn't the old daoist beside him participate? Could it be that his guess was wrong?
Just at this moment, the old daoist beside Xiao Chen suddenly trembled. He revealed an extremely grave expression and looked around as if he was looking for something.
