Chapter 769 A Conversation With The Holy Emperor (1/2)
Although he appeared aged with a wrinkled face and coarse hair, the vigor of his manner still remained. Darren was right. This old man was none other than the holy emperor with the long spear who practiced the Primitive Fighting Force.
Darren stared at the holy emperor for a while with a look of awe and respect. After all, holy emperors were reputable, high-leveled people who he had only heard about in legends and stories.
”Sir, was what you just showed me the battle that happened between you and the Dark Emperor? What happened to the Dark Emperor in the end? Did you kill him?” asked Darren.
The battle ended abruptly and he really wanted to know what had happened.
”Kill him? He cannot be killed,” said the Primitive Emperor, shaking his head.
”Then what happened at last?” Darren continued.
”In the last stage of the battle, I really did strike him hard. However, did you notice the green shadow behind him?” asked the Primitive Emperor.
Darren thought back to the battle and remembered a dark green shadow floating behind the Dark Emperor. ”Yes! I do!” Darren exclaimed.
”That's what keeps him immortal. That's his Eternal Body,” said the Primitive Emperor. ”Even if I blast him into a million pieces, he will still live. I think you could guess that the battle ended with my defeat. I was able to detach my soul from my real body and transfer it into my avatar in time. Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here and talking to you right now.”
Darren felt the tiredness and shame in the Primitive Emperor's voice. He must have been disoriented during the entire battle.
Striking a man who possessed Eternal Body was a futile attempt, because no matter how hard one would fight, they would never beat them. It was the same case with Aaron, who also possessed Eternal Body.
Under the circumstances, it was impossible for the Primitive Emperor to kill the Dark Emperor. The Primitive Emperor was doomed to be defeated.
”Sir, do you mean that if one possesses the Eternal Body, he can never be killed?” asked Darren. He was incredulous that anyone could have that kind of strength.
”Not really.” The Primitive Emperor shook his head and began to explain, ”Possessing Eternal Body would be able to keep you from most of the dangers. If a warrior of the same level or a bit higher were to attack you, you would be kept safe from any harm. However, someone far mightier and more powerful might stand a chance if he would fire attacks constantly. If all the particles of his body were dissolved and were spread far apart, he would not be able to regenerate in time...” the Primitive Emperor trailed off.
”Darren, do you know about the immortals?” he asked abruptly.
