Chapter 1958: Chapter 1955: Bragging
"Including the Immortal Ancient Era."
These last words made Ye Xuan’s expression somewhat peculiar.
Does that mean no one else has ever been here besides him?
Including those ancient beings from the Immortal Ancient Era!
Purple Dragon noticed Ye Xuan’s peculiar expression and curiously asked, "Do you have any doubts?"
Ye Xuan paused for a moment, finally saying, "Actually, it’s not my first time here."
Purple Dragon looked bewildered, "Impossible, if you had been here before, I would certainly have memories about you, but I have never seen you."
Ye Xuan didn’t reply, instead, he reached out and swiped in the void.
In the next moment, within the chaos, an image appeared out of nowhere.
In that image, there was a humanoid creature shrouded in dark Qi, walking through the chaos step by step, once arriving at this place, gazing into the distance, but noticing nothing.
"This is..."
"You?"
Seeing the image, Purple Dragon’s expression also turned peculiar, he carefully compared Ye Xuan with the figure in the image, unable to figure out the connection between the two.
Ye Xuan remained calm, nodding slightly, "It’s me."
Purple Dragon shrugged, "Well, it just means you were too strong back then, from the perspective of the Dao here, you probably didn’t need what they call tempering."
"It’s kind of odd, why back then you were so powerful, but now you’re so weak?"
Purple Dragon was a bit curious.
Ye Xuan chuckled, "Some boring past events, there’s no point in mentioning them."
Yet Purple Dragon couldn’t contain his curiosity, urging, "Don’t worry, I won’t make fun of you. How about we share stories, one each?"
Ye Xuan still shook his head.
Purple Dragon hurriedly said, "Come on, I’ve waited here for so long, finally meeting someone, what’s the point if we don’t chat?"
Ye Xuan looked at Purple Dragon, smiling, "Weren’t you planning to spar with me, why talk about all this?"
Purple Dragon rolled his eyes, replying with frustration, "That’s just the constraint of this prohibition, actually, I don’t like fighting. Let’s spar a little and chat more."
Ye Xuan, with a half-smile, said, "That punch you just threw didn’t seem like just sparring."
Just now when Purple Dragon appeared, his punch’s power was absolutely at the Quasi-Emperor Realm.
That punch, if it were anyone else, would have been smashed to pieces long ago, how could they still be leisurely chatting here?
Purple Dragon grinned hearing this, "You’re interesting, if we were from the same time, we’d surely be friends."
Ye Xuan said nothing to this.
Purple Dragon lay back with his hands behind his head, staring at the sky leisurely, "Honestly, there isn’t much fun in our time, my life has too many regrets."
"Even..."
"I didn’t have the chance to marry, isn’t that regrettable?"
Purple Dragon glanced at Ye Xuan, noticing this guy didn’t seem to care.
Purple Dragon continued, talking to himself, "I always thought, once I became an Immortal Emperor, I’d set up a grand harem, to have my favorite women presiding over it."
"But unfortunately, on the Immortal Emperor road, I didn’t survive those calamities and ultimately fell."
"Before falling, those scenes flooded my mind, shattering my Dao Heart, never to revive again."
Listening to Purple Dragon’s story, Ye Xuan found it strange, "Are you saying you appeared here only after you died?"
Purple Dragon shook his head, "Not exactly, because by the timeline, this version of me is still a young lad who hasn’t experienced these, but since I’d already fallen, this prohibition resurrected me in this way, with those past experiences."
Ye Xuan pondered, "Is it possible all your memories are fake?"
Hearing this, Purple Dragon was momentarily stunned, he lowered his hands, directly facing Ye Xuan.
The atmosphere seemed to freeze.
"Makes sense."
But Purple Dragon didn’t strike, instead nodding in agreement.
Ye Xuan chuckled, "So, are we going to fight or not?"
Purple Dragon looked at Ye Xuan, smiling, "Do you want to fight?"
Ye Xuan slightly nodded, "I haven’t encountered characters from your era, naturally I’d like to see if I could learn something."
Purple Dragon laughed heartily, "I guarantee it won’t disappoint you, but I’ve got to tell you in advance, after fighting, you must drink and boast with me."
Purple Dragon pointed at the Snow Nourishing Sword Gourd on Ye Xuan’s waist, drooling, "I really crave that."
Ye Xuan patted the Snow Nourishing Sword Gourd, smiling, "You can have as much as you want!"
Hearing this, Purple Dragon wiped his drool and grinned, "Deal!"
Neither spoke further, but their auras began rising rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, they reached the peak.
Boom!
When the atmosphere reached a critical point, both of their bodies moved almost simultaneously.
Around them, strands of Dao Patterns were roiling.
As if it was a confrontation between two Dao Patterns.
Their figures passed each other, having exchanged blows hundreds of times.
In this battle, Ye Xuan didn’t use any external force, nor did the Emperor Soul.
He wanted to exchange moves with Purple Dragon.
Or rather, Purple Dragon was feeding moves to Ye Xuan.
After all, Purple Dragon no longer existed.
He came from the Immortal Ancient Epoch, who once perished attempting to become an Immortal Emperor.
The Daoist Techniques of that time differed significantly from the present.
Ye Xuan seized this rare opportunity to engage such a being.
Just like when Ye Xuan first visited the Immortal King Hall, encountering Luo Chen Immortal King before he reincarnated as Wu Muchen, the two said nothing but engaged in a peak duel.
Exchange of moves.
The current situation mirrored the past.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Their duel was overwhelmingly fierce, causing the surrounding chaos to churn continuously.
In this vast chaos, they could strike without restraint.
There was no fear of destroying the world.
But with their continued combat, within this chaos, earth, water, fire, and wind seemed to evolve, forming a chaotic, turbulent world.
Yet soon, this chaotic, turbulent world was reduced to ashes in the midst of their duel.
Their moves seemed devoid of any style, yet the power of primordial Dao was surging!
It was a collision of their Daos, a mutual comprehension.
Battle often is the quickest path to learning.
In the brink of life and death, pursuing the origin of Dao, and attuning to nature.
Their battle lasted a very long time.
"Thrilling, absolutely thrilling!"
Purple Dragon laughed heartily, thrilled and exuberant.
"Emperor Ye, honestly, in my era, no one could contend with me. Not at the same realm, even if I suppressed a realm, and the opponent was one realm higher, they still weren’t my rival. I’ve never had such an exhilarating battle!"
"This battle, I’m genuinely happy!"
"For this, I’m willing to offer all the Dao comprehensions of my life to Emperor Ye, the only condition is that we drink to our hearts’ content afterward!"
