Chapter 474 The Memory of the Emperor of the East Sea

The Great Emperor of the East Sea stared at the backs of Xu Yang and others turning around, lost in thought. The golden-threaded yellow cloak behind him hung limply behind him, and the scale dragon pattern on it looked like a hungry worm, limp. At this moment, he looked a little numb, a loser at a loss.

After a moment, he took a deep breath. The salty and bitter taste in the sea breeze stimulated his nostrils and throat, instantly pulling his dazed thoughts back to reality, like a greedy beast that smelled the blood that made its instinct irresistible.

"These people are all my prey. I am the master of the Great Palace of the East Sea, the master of the entire East Sea. How can I easily bear such a failure?" The Great Emperor of the East Sea asked himself in his heart, and a murderous aura flashed in his old eyes.

"Ten years ago, I was seriously ill and my body was decadent..."

His thoughts jumped to ten years ago.

The East Sea Grand Palace stands on a huge island deep in the East China Sea. The entire palace is built on the mountain, like a giant overlooking the vast East China Sea in front of it, majestic and domineering.

In a large bedroom in the palace, on the sunny side, the sun shines weakly through the window lattices and curtains, scattering decadent light spots and jumping shadows.

The Great Emperor of the East China Sea lies on the sickbed, and the whole person is like a soft face.

His hair is a little messy, his face is as pale as paper, and his breath is as weak as the curtain hanging beside the bed.

"Is there really no cure for my disease?" The Great Emperor of the East China Sea looked up blankly with a pair of old eyes that were already a little turbid, his eyes were scattered, and he said weakly.

Beside the sickbed, in addition to two dignified maids wearing the costumes of the Scaled Dragon Clan, there is also an elderly imperial doctor of the East China Sea Grand Palace kneeling on the ground.

"I am incompetent, I am incompetent." The imperial physician looked as if a knife was on his neck, his face was extremely ugly, and he banged his head on the hard ground while speaking. It seemed that as long as he knocked a hole in the ground, he could get out and escape.

"Chief imperial physician, you just said that I am afraid that I only have half a year left. This emperor will not die for the time being, you all go out, let me be alone for a while." The Great Emperor of Donghai said as loudly as possible. His tone revealed the stubbornness and arrogance of the pair of royal horns on his forehead that had never weakened.

After hearing this, the two personal maids and the chief imperial physician bowed and retreated together. The maid who left sighed softly, then pushed the door tightly with both hands and stood outside the door to stand guard.

The chief imperial physician walking on the corridor took steps tremblingly, like grass and trees that were about to fall in the autumn wind, shaking his head as he walked, and his back was lonely.

......

In the room, only the lonely Emperor of the East Sea was left with the trivial, dark shadows cast by the sun.

"I can't die yet. Although I have seven sons, none of them has the pure blood of the Scaled Dragon Royal Family. If I fall, there will be no qualified heir in the entire Scaled Dragon Royal Family, and the Scaled Dragon Family will eventually collapse." Thinking of this in his heart, two lines of old tears crossed the face of the Emperor of the East Sea.

"I am not willing." The Emperor of the East Sea said to himself. The voice was not loud, but it was a cry from his heart.

In his life, he had shed tears only a few times, and he had never shed tears in front of any outsiders. He was the master of the East Sea.

With a "creak", the door that was previously closed was opened by someone from the outside.

"Who is it? Didn't I tell you to get out?" The Great Emperor of the East Sea said angrily, and cursed in his heart with inferior language: "Do you think I can't do it? You dare to go against my will, no matter who you are, I will chop off your head. This is the price of offending this emperor."

"Who I am is not important. What's important is that I can cure your illness." The man's tone was neither hurried nor slow, and his footsteps were as silent as a ghost. Before he finished speaking, he had already arrived in front of the sickbed of the Great Emperor of the East Sea.

"From the tone, it's a stranger." The Great Emperor of the East Sea thought to himself. At this moment, he even had a lot of effort to turn his head. With a glance, he only saw the hem of the man's clothes. It was a purple-black robe with dark patterns on the edge of the robe. Underneath it was a pair of unique black leather boots with the toes raised proudly. It was not the style of the scaled dragon tribe in the Great Palace of the East Sea, nor was it the common style of the Zhongyuan Continent.

Weird people, is he an angel or a devil.

"Who are you? Why don't you come here uninvited?" The Emperor of the East Sea still had some doubts about the visitor's words.

"Don't worry, if I came to kill you, would you still have a chance to speak? The world is so big, no matter where the sun reaches, there will be shadows. You can call me Shadow Master." The visitor said generously.

A stranger stood close to the Emperor of the East Sea and talked to him condescendingly, which made him feel quite uncomfortable.

"Shadow Master? I have never heard of this name." Thinking whether the other party was an enemy or a friend, the Emperor of the East Sea still replied politely: "I am not feeling well, there is a seat over there, please sit down and talk."

"No need, I have a pill that can save your life, you take it." As he said, the purple-clothed man who called himself Shadow Master flipped his wrist, and a purple pill the size of a soybean appeared out of thin air, and automatically floated in front of the Emperor of the East Sea like an elf.

It was a pill with a surface as smooth as jade and five purple-gold spiritual patterns. Each spiritual pattern looked like a miniature deer, jumping on the surface of the pill, full of vitality and life.

"Five spiritual patterns, it's a Xuan-grade spiritual pill."

The Great Emperor of the East Sea blurted out, his eyes full of hope, his fingertips could not help but move, if his body was free, he would definitely grab this Xuan-grade elixir with five spiritual patterns in his hand.

The top-grade elixir has three spiritual patterns, which is already very valuable. And the top-grade elixir with four spiritual patterns is a collection of various sects. As for the Xuan-grade elixir with five spiritual patterns, it is said that it is a replica of the immortal elixir in ancient times, and each one has unexpected effects.

The person who claimed to be the shadow master stretched out a finger and pointed at the elixir floating in the air. A purple spiritual light fell on it, and the elixir was as crystal as a gem.

The five "deer" on the surface of the elixir became more real, cheering and jumping, as if the gods reappeared.

The next moment, the purple elixir turned into a purple light and shadow, and directly sank into the lips of the Great Emperor of the East Sea.

The Great Emperor of the East Sea did not even have time to savor the taste of the pill, and the power of the pill had already turned into a warm stream, flowing directly into his abdomen, traveling around the eight extraordinary meridians and the five internal organs.

Comfortable, like a spring breeze.

The Great Emperor of the East Sea, whose body was as dry as a long-drought land, regained vitality.

His eyelids closed comfortably, his breathing became stronger and stronger, and a dream appeared in his mind, which was his childhood memory.

A child who looked seven or eight years old, with a face similar to the Great Emperor of the East Sea and a pair of pointed horns on his head, stood on the beach of the East Sea and shouted loudly: "When I grow up, I will become the master of the East Sea."

The voice was full of vitality, stirring the sea surface and jumping up waves full of vitality.

......

I don’t know how long this dream lasted, the Great Emperor of the East Sea opened his eyes. He turned around and got off the bed nimbly. Not only did his sick body recover, but even his cultivation had taken a half step forward.

The person in front of him was tall and wore a dark purple robe. The hat on the robe was very large, and the brim of the hat covered half of his face. The shadow cast made it difficult to see the person's face and age.

"What a powerful divine sense, it can easily block my vision and make me unable to see his face." The Great Emperor of the East Sea was surprised.

Then, he bowed and said respectfully: "Thank you, Lord Shadow Master, for the medicine."

At this moment, in the eyes of the Great Emperor of the East Sea, this Lord Shadow Master was the god sent by the God of the East Sea to save his life. If he was not the king of the Great Palace of the East Sea, he would have knelt down because of his status.

"Nothing? What you took just now was a purple Yuan Dan, which only increased your lifespan by 20 years. Whether you can change your fate and live for hundreds of years depends on your future luck." The Shadow Master said in a light tone.

The words of the Shadow Master were like an invisible needle piercing the long-dormant heart of the Great Emperor of the East Sea. His heart was like an excited big bird, flapping its wings constantly.

"Plop, plop..." The strong and powerful heartbeat seemed to be back to the age of twenty. As a person who climbed back from the edge of death, the Great Emperor of the East Sea had nothing more coveted than longevity, which was a hundred times more precious than the treasures in the entire East Sea Palace.

"This? Is there anything I can do? Please let me know, Lord Shadow Master." The originally turbid old eyes of the Great Emperor of the East Sea suddenly shone like a pair of night pearls, stirring the darkness and peeping at the light.

Longevity.

Light.

Brilliant.

Dream come true!

"I gave you twenty years of life, and I don't need any reward from you for the time being. In these twenty years, I will do something big in Zhongyuan Continent. At that time, as long as you cooperate with me to launch an action, lead the hundreds of tribes in the East Sea to take the opportunity to attack Zhongyuan Continent and divide their power. Maybe, at that time, I will give you a better elixir, and I wish you to break through the bottleneck of cultivation. If your cultivation can break through from Daoming Realm to Tianjie Realm, it should increase your life span by hundreds of years." The Shadow Master said in a flat tone. It was as if the elixir that could break through the Heavenly Tribulation Realm was just something he could easily obtain.

The usually shrewd and steady Emperor of the East Sea was a little uneasy. His eyes swung back and forth in excitement, as if the elixir that the Shadow Master said could help him break through his cultivation was right in front of him.

"Is there really such an elixir? Maybe what the Shadow Master said is true. I can be cured miraculously, which is the fact." Thinking in his heart, the Emperor of the East Sea became more certain of the Shadow Master's words.

"I believe that the Shadow Master has great abilities, but you want me to mobilize the hundreds of tribes in the East Sea to assist you. I'm afraid the big thing you want to do is to dominate the entire Zhongyuan Continent. This is not something that one person or a few people can do. The Zhongyuan Continent has stood for thousands of years, and no one has been able to completely rule it by himself." The Emperor of the East Sea asked tentatively.

"Do you doubt my strength? Now I may be just one person, but in the future I may be thousands of people. You have to believe that where light can reach, there will be traces of shadows." After saying this, the Shadow Master turned his wrist and handed a square purple wooden box with a unique pattern carved on the surface to the Emperor of the East China Sea.

"What's in this box?" The Emperor of the East China Sea took the box respectfully with both hands and asked.

"Just accept it. If one day, our affairs are exposed in advance, you can open this box. It can help you kill and silence people and defeat opponents you cannot defeat. But if you don't encounter such a thing, don't open it rashly." The Shadow Master said in a calm tone.

After saying this, without waiting for the Emperor of the East China Sea to answer, a ray of purple spiritual light swirled around the Shadow Master.

In the flashing purple light, the Shadow Master has disappeared, as if he had traveled to another world.

The Great Emperor of the East Sea looked at the place where the Shadow Master disappeared, half believing and half doubting. Then he carefully looked at the purple wooden box in his hand, confirming that this was not a dream, and then with a smug look on his face, he carefully put the box into his arms.
