Chapter 274: thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus

"He mistakes me for the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor and is now taking the initiative to gift a treasure. If I refuse, will he fly into a rage out of humiliation and become my enemy?"

"But if I accept it, will I offend the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor?"

Han Jue touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

To accept or not to accept, that is a question worth pondering.

Seeing that the Straw Cloak Person refused to leave, Han Jue sighed and had to go over in person.

His Primordial Spirit immediately jumped into the Underworld, cast the Somersault Cloud, and leaped directly in front of Hidden Sect Island.

Seeing Han Jue's Primordial Spirit appear, the Straw Cloak Person was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly bowed in salute.

Han Jue said, "You can wait a little longer and wait for me to find you voluntarily."

The Straw Cloak Person sighed and said, "You have disappeared for so many years. I'm afraid that if I keep waiting, I won't be able to wait for you."

Han Jue was puzzled. How come this fellow's attitude underwent a one-hundred-eighty-degree shift?

Previously, he was quite impolite, calling him 'you' every breath.

Now 'you' has become 'Your Excellency'.

Could it be that this fellow encountered something over these years?

Han Jue asked, "Why do you say that?"

The Straw Cloak Person did not hide it either and said, "I was suppressed by King Yama and cast into boundless Karma. After the calamity begins, I will suffer Qi Deviation, sink into the karmic entanglement of the floating world, and never be able to turn things around for all eternity, until my body dies and my Dao dissipates."

Speaking of this matter, the Straw Cloak Person couldn't help but sigh again.

So miserable?

Han Jue raised his eyebrows.

Is King Yama that powerful?

No wonder when he passed by the netherworld earlier, he faintly felt uneasy.

One cannot project the King Yama from Journey to the West onto the King Yama here.

"The things you want, I can give directly to you. After my death, I only ask that you can fulfill the matter you promised me back then!" the Straw Cloak Person said in a deep voice.

He raised his right hand, and a black lotus appeared in the palm of his hand.

This black lotus was incomparably bizarre, growing thirty-six lotus petals. It was pitch black all over and exuded an ominous and eerie aura.

Han Jue probed into this black lotus with his Divine Sense. In an instant, a terrifying force swallowed his Divine Sense, scaring him into hurriedly cutting off his Divine Sense.

What is this thing!

Han Jue was frightened. At that very instant, he felt that even his Primordial Spirit would be swallowed by this black lotus.

"The thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus. To obtain this item, I sacrificed my Physical Body and the possibility of Reincarnation, trading for it from the Demon Ancestor," the Straw Cloak Person said in a complicated tone.

He was now merely a powerful ghost.

No matter how strong, it was still a ghost.

Han Jue asked, "Traded for? Since the Demon Ancestor has such a powerful Magic Treasure, why sweep across the Immortal Realm?"

He knew the ambitions of the Demon Race.

"You are joking. He suffered a disastrous defeat in the Immeasurable Calamity and was expelled by Heavenly Dao. He can no longer return to the Immortal Realm. He can only pin his hopes on the Demon Race. I gifted my Physical Body to the Demon Race, allowing them to have an Immortal Emperor's body in the Immortal Realm."

The Straw Cloak Person's words made Han Jue frown.

This Demon Race truly refused to give up.

They were planting contingencies everywhere!

The Mortal Realm had the Demonic Path, the Buddhism of the Immortal Realm had demonic hearts, and they even won over an Immortal Emperor.

Han Jue suspected that one day, the Demon Race would once again sweep across the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms.

No matter how one looked at it, the Demon Ancestor was like the ultimate villain!

The Straw Cloak Person raised his hand and pushed, and the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus flew toward Han Jue.

Han Jue instinctively resisted, but as a result, the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus suddenly accelerated and crashed directly into his Primordial Spirit.

Han Jue was shocked and wanted to banish the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus out, but the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus had actually disappeared.

I'm screwed!

Han Jue panicked.

The Straw Cloak Person smiled and said, "Since You have already accepted it, then I believe You will definitely be able to fulfill Your promise to me!"

After saying that, the Straw Cloak Person turned and left.

[Taoist Yuzhi has developed Favorability toward you. Current Favorability: 5 stars]

Looking at the line of words popping up before him, Han Jue couldn't help but be speechless.

Gazing at Taoist Yuzhi's back, he opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.

You haven't mentioned the promise yet!

Fearing that his identity would be exposed, Han Jue thought about it and decided to let it go.

It might even bring trouble.

Han Jue immediately jumped out of the Underworld, and his Primordial Spirit returned to his body.

He hurriedly checked his Physical Body, fearing that he would be killed by the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus.

However, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find it.

Refusing to believe it, he continued searching.

After several hours, Han Jue finally found it.

It was actually hidden within the Hongmeng World, located deep inside a star.

Han Jue couldn't forcibly banish it out, but he discovered that the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus did not harm him.

Primordial Qi was cleansing the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus. Although the effect was very weak, if it continued, perhaps one day it could completely transform the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus into a Magic Treasure belonging to him.

Han Jue let out a sigh of relief.

It is good that there is no danger.

He thought for a moment and said, "Wudao Sword, go outside for a bit."

Upon hearing this, Enlightenment Sword, who was cultivating, stood up and left reflexively.

After she left, Han Jue called out to the Heavenly Emperor.

This time, the Heavenly Emperor replied very quickly: "What is it?"

"Do You know about the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus?"

"How do you know of this item?"

The Heavenly Emperor's tone was extremely solemn, making Han Jue realize that this thing was truly not simple.

Han Jue immediately replied, "I met a person who mistook me for the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor and even took out the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus, saying he wanted to gift it to me. The aura of that thing was too terrifying, and I was so scared that I directly fled."

"Hmm? The Reincarnation Immortal Emperor is looking for the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus?"

Far away in the Immortal Realm, the Heavenly Emperor couldn't help but frown.

At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor sat on the magnificent golden throne coiled with nine dragons, looking down at the immortals and gods slaughtering the Yao Race.

He felt flustered and thought to himself: "What does the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor want to do? Could it be that the mysterious existence wielding the Book of Misfortune is the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor? This fellow's origin is unknown, and his cultivation purpose is also unknown. He can be said to be the most mysterious existence among the myriad realms."

"He has definitely set his sights on Han Jue!"

Han Jue was the Heavenly Emperor's treasure; how could he allow the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor to lay a hand on him?

The Heavenly Emperor immediately sent a voice transmission to Han Jue, saying: "Where did you meet that person?"

Han Jue said: "The Underworld."

"Go to the Underworld less often in the future. The Heavenly Court cannot manage the Underworld; the netherworld and the Heavenly Court are merely in a cooperative relationship."

"I understand. Can You tell me the origin of the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus?"

The Heavenly Emperor hesitated for a moment, but still stated the origin of this treasure.

Legend has it that when heaven and earth first opened, four lotus flowers were born between heaven and earth, containing four different supreme rules. Obtaining one of them allowed one to comprehend the Dao.

After experiencing four Immeasurable Calamities, one of the lotus flowers transformed into the thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus.

The thirty-sixth grade samsara world-ending black lotus contained incomparably terrifying Karma, and could directly trigger the Immeasurable Calamity before Heavenly Dao reached the calamity period!

This black lotus had accumulated Karma from four Immeasurable Calamities, making it terrifying to the extreme.

The Heavenly Emperor warned, "This black lotus should have been suppressed together with the Demon Ancestor in the dark place beneath Reincarnation. For the Demon Ancestor to release it, he definitely has malicious intentions. Even I am extremely wary of this item; you must not get involved with it, otherwise I won't be able to save you."

Han Jue was awkward. He had already gotten involved and couldn't shake it off no matter how hard he tried.

On the surface, he was very solemn as he said: "I understand, I will never touch that thing!"
