Chapter 1648: Only half a point away
A lot of Heaven-Defying Road Stones were obtained along the way, and this last layer was naturally indispensable.
It was not too surprising that it appeared at this moment.
However, Lin Chen really didn't care about this at the moment. He took a look and confirmed that the number was enough for him to open the sixteenth limit, so he ignored it.
Presumably, the Heaven-Defying Road Stones in the entire Ghost Country would not be treated like this again. Even those big figures who have been famous for a long time, the Supreme, and even those above the Supreme, are all flocking to the Heaven-Defying Road Stones.
Lin Chen slumped on the ground.
First, the consumption was really huge, and the injuries on his body were also serious, and he needed to recover slowly.
Second, he was greatly shocked in his heart and needed further sorting.
He was confused at the moment.
Although there was no evidence, Lin Chen felt that he had guessed the identity of the figure. Even if the other party wanted him to die, he couldn't be happy at the moment that the other party sacrificed himself.
He knew that the other party must be aiming for the entire human race, and even the entire world.
He didn't know whether his struggle would eventually bring unimaginable consequences, and whether he would regret it one day.
"Heaven, earth...human, what are you inheriting, and why do you have differences?" Lin Chen murmured.
"Chenchen, what did the human figure you mentioned tell you?" Bai Shu took shape and sat beside Lin Chen.
Lin Chen didn't know whether his body was really injured or he was upset and wanted to have a support or comfort. He leaned towards Bai Shu and snuggled together.
"Bai Shu, what kind of person do you think the Human Emperor is?" Lin Chen asked.
"The Human Emperor is an unparalleled human emperor. He even surpassed the two emperors of heaven and earth. His deeds are sung in heaven and earth. Not only our human race, but also the two demon races, all the races in the world have spread the deeds of the Human Emperor", Bai Shu admired from the bottom of his heart.
"You know a lot", Lin Chen smiled.
"What are you talking about? How could I not know the deeds of the Human Emperor? The Human Emperor started from humble beginnings and brought light to the dark world again. He is the hope of the human race and all races. He once..." Bai Shu said slowly and then stopped.
A subtle sense of disharmony flashed between the two people, and then there was no more awkward feeling, as if everything was normal.
Bai Shu did not continue to tell the story of the Human Emperor, and Lin Chen did not ask any more questions, as if they had never had a corresponding conversation.
"Chenchen is guessing, is that human figure the Human Emperor? Is it the Human Emperor who wants to kill you?" Bai Shu frowned and said, she did not believe this kind of thing, and instinctively denied it.
The Human Emperor always walks ahead of everyone, shoulders the world, and he always sacrifices himself.
Although there are like-minded people who are willing to sacrifice for the Human Emperor and die for the overall situation, the Human Emperor has never forced anyone to sacrifice. He has never been a person who will do anything to achieve his goal!
How could such a Human Emperor force Lin Chen to sacrifice, and take Lin Chen's life before achieving his goal?
"It is likely to be him," Lin Chen took a deep breath.
The line of the bronze coffin was laid out by the Emperor of Heaven and practiced by the Emperor of Earth, and finally implemented by the previous human figure.
Lin Chen really couldn't think of anyone else between heaven and earth who could inherit the ambitions of the two emperors of heaven and earth.
Not to mention that he had seen the back of the Human Emperor, which was completely the same as the figure just now.
Although it was not 100% certain, it should not be wrong.
"I don't believe it, the Human Emperor would never do this!" Bai Shu shook her head repeatedly. Even if Lin Chen said this, she didn't believe it.
Lin Chen sighed, "I don't know what the truth is. That person's intention to kill me is not false, but he never hesitated to sacrifice himself. Maybe he had no choice."
"The Human Emperor went all the way to the highest point. He had no choice on the way. He broke them all with one sword. There is nothing in the world that can make him feel desperate. There has never been a so-called last resort!" Bai Shu said firmly.
Lin Chen nodded.
The Human Emperor should be like this.
But if the figure just now was not the Human Emperor, who would it be?
"He once said something very strange, and I still don't understand what it means," Lin Chen said.
"What did you say?" Bai Shu was curious?
"He said that his appearance was actually the beginning of despair. I thought he had not actually lived," Lin Chen repeated, chewing on the meaning.
"It's really strange," Bai Shu nodded, holding his cheek with his hand, thinking carefully.
"His Majesty the Human Emperor was born in the Age of Darkness. It was he who ended that hopeless period and brought light back to the world. Shouldn't his appearance be the end of despair?"
"As for the fact that he had not lived, that's even more nonsense. The greatness of the Human Emperor is praised by all the worlds, how could he not have lived?" Bai Shu shook his head.
"Yes," Lin Chen nodded. It seems that the self-narration of the figure is completely inconsistent with the experience of the Human Emperor.
"I don't understand," Bai Shu curled his lips.
"After all, he is the Human Emperor. It's normal that you can't understand it. After all, I can't understand it!" Lin Chen said.
"Why do you always look down on me!" Bai Shu said dissatisfiedly.
"After all, you haven't experienced the era of the Human Emperor. You have read all your deeds in books, right?" Lin Chen smiled.
"Who said that? You are from a different era!" Bai Shu said speechlessly.
They looked at each other and then said nothing.
After a moment of silence, Lin Chen scratched his head and said, "Bai Shu, I always feel something strange. What were we talking about just now?"
"The human figure and the human emperor," Bai Shu said.
"Where is Feiya?" Lin Chen asked, frowning slightly.
"That's right," Feiya nodded.
Lin Chen did not ask any more questions, but for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, but he could not grasp it.
It seemed that a similar situation had happened before, but he could not remember it at all. He just had such a vague feeling, but now this feeling was a little stronger.
"In any case, leading the Ten Thousand Races to break the lightless Human Emperor should not be the beginning of despair. That figure may not really be the Human Emperor," said Lin Chen.
"Well, I don't think so!" Bai Shu nodded.
In this way, Lin Chen lost interest in continuing to talk for some reason, so he stopped talking about it. Instead, he smiled bitterly and said with the Tongxin Pei: "It is really hard to imagine that it was this jade that saved me in the end."
"Why did the Immortal Emperor save you?" Bai Shu was also puzzled.
"I saw some pictures. The Immortal Emperor was defeated by the Ancient Emperor," said Lin Chen.
Bai Shu nodded, "Indeed, in the early Yuan Dynasty, the two emperors fought, and the Ancient Emperor won in the end. He became the first emperor to lead the human race!"
"But the gap between them is not big. Although the Ancient Emperor won, it was only a miserable victory. If they fight again, it is hard to say what the result will be."
"Maybe history will be rewritten, and the Immortal Emperor will become the first emperor."
Lin Chen nodded, and then continued: "The Ancient Emperor defeated the Immortal Emperor, but did not kill him. Instead, he traveled through the long river of time with him. They seemed to have found my future self."
Bai Shu was stunned, and then said in horror: "You mean, the reason why the Ancient Emperor did not kill the Immortal Emperor is that he wanted him to save your life at the critical moment!"
"That should be the case, otherwise it is impossible to explain why the Immortal Emperor gave me this heart-to-heart pendant," Lin Chen said.
"So that's the case. It solves a puzzle I have had for many years," Bai Shu laughed. This feeling of curiosity finally being satisfied is naturally very pleasing to her.
Her desire for knowledge has always exceeded that of others.
"Bai Shu, you said that the Immortal Emperor who was defeated by the Ancient Emperor is still alive. Could it be that the Ancient Emperor has not fallen, but lives in this world with the ability to deceive the heaven?" Lin Chen's eyes flashed.
"But if so, why did he ask the Immortal Emperor to save you? Isn't it a lot more variable?" Bai Shu asked back.
"This... is hard to say", Lin Chen could only scratch his head, and felt a little headache.
Along the way, he obtained a lot of Heaven-Defying Road Stones, and this last layer is naturally indispensable.
It is not too surprising that it appears at this moment.
But at this moment, Lin Chen really didn't care about this. He took a look and confirmed that the number was enough for him to open the sixteenth limit, so he ignored it.

Lin Chen slumped on the ground.
On the one hand, the consumption is really huge, and the injuries on his body are also serious, and he needs to recover slowly.
Secondly, he was deeply shaken and needed to sort things out further.
He was confused at the moment.
Although there was no evidence, Lin Chen felt that he had guessed the identity of the figure. Even if the other party wanted him dead, he could not be happy at the moment when the other party sacrificed himself.
He knew that the other party must be aiming for the entire human race, and even the entire world.
He didn't know whether his struggle would eventually bring unimaginable consequences, and whether he would regret it one day.
"Heaven, earth... people, what are you inheriting, and why are there differences?" Lin Chen murmured.
"Chenchen, what did the figure you mentioned tell you?" Bai Shu took shape and sat next to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen didn't know whether his body was really injured or he was confused and wanted to have a support or comfort at the moment. He leaned towards Bai Shu and snuggled together.
"Bai Shu, what kind of person do you think the Human Emperor is?" Lin Chen asked.

"Chenchen is guessing, is that figure the Human Emperor? Is it the Human Emperor who wants to kill you?" Bai Shu frowned and said, she did not believe this kind of thing, and instinctively denied it.
The Human Emperor always walks ahead of everyone, carrying the world on his shoulders, and he always sacrifices himself.
Although there are like-minded people who are willing to sacrifice for the emperor and die for the overall situation, the emperor has never forced anyone to sacrifice. He has never been a person who will do anything to achieve his goal!
How could such an emperor force Lin Chen to sacrifice his life and take his life before achieving his goal?
"It is most likely him," Lin Chen took a deep breath.
The line of the bronze coffin was laid out by the emperor of heaven, implemented by the emperor of earth, and finally implemented by the figure before.
Lin Chen really couldn't think of anyone else in the world who could inherit the ambitions of the two emperors of heaven and earth.
Not to mention that he had seen the back of the Human Emperor, which was completely the same as the figure just now.

"In any case, the human emperor who led all races to break the lightlessness should not be the beginning of despair. That human figure may not really be the human emperor," Lin Chen said.
"Well, I don't think so!" Bai Shu nodded.
As a result, Lin Chen somehow lost interest in continuing the conversation and stopped talking about it. Instead, he smiled bitterly and said while holding the Heart-to-Heart Pendant: "It is indeed hard to imagine that it was this jade that saved me in the end."
"Why did the Immortal Emperor save you?" Bai Shu was also puzzled.
"I saw some scenes, and the Immortal Emperor was defeated by the Ancient Emperor," said Lin Chen.
Bai Shu nodded, "Indeed, in the early Yuan Dynasty, the two emperors fought, and the Ancient Emperor won in the end. He became the first emperor to lead the human race!"

"But if so, why did he ask the Immortal Emperor to save you? Isn't it too much of a variable?" Bai Shu asked back.
"This... is hard to say", Lin Chen could only scratch his head, feeling a little headache.
