Chapter 380: The Emperor’s Story (1)

A line of text appeared before Li Qingshan’s eyes. He blinked his eyes and was overjoyed. He didn’t expect to glimpse the life of the Central Jade Emperor.

He opened the Central Jade Emperor’s Emperor Scripture. With a boom, a black-and-white scroll appeared before his eyes.

Different from the Emperor Scripture of the Demon Emperor of the Nine Heavens and the Gouchen Emperor, the Central Jade Emperor’s Emperor Scripture wasn’t a complete world but rather a scroll.

This was the credit of his maxed-level comprehension skill.

Li Qingshan entered the scroll and saw a clean and pristine world without a trace.

He walked within the scroll.

Walking in a vast white world.

Suddenly, a huge brush fell from the sky. It carried ink and was written on white paper.

[Kindness]

This word was written in a huge font, very prominent on this scroll.

Li Qingshan saw that after this word appeared, there was a scene of a young man with a pure smile, helping the weak and holding onto kindness.

“That’s the Central Jade Emperor’s youth, but at this time, he was called Zhang Bairen!” Li Qingshan silently recited.

Boom!

Another giant brush fell, writing words.

[Slaughter]

As soon as this word was written, Li Qingshan immediately felt the sword lights, the crumbling rocks, the pervasive killing intent rushing in.

In this word, he saw Zhang Bairen’s slaughter, seeing him punishing evil and promoting good.

Li Qingshan gradually realized that this scroll was none other than the life of the Central Jade Emperor, Zhang Bairen.

Every person is born as a blank sheet of paper, ignorant and innocent, with no understanding of good or evil.

As they grow up, different people appear, writing different words on this blank sheet of paper.

Some taught you kindness.

Some taught you slaughter.

These different people came and went, dyeing a clean piece of white paper with five colors, creating the later Central Jade Emperor.

These different people came and went, turning a clean white sheet into a colorful one, shaping the later Central Jade Emperor.

Boom!

In the next moment, another brush fell, writing a word.

[Evil]

This word instantly occupied most of the white paper, huge and overwhelming, overshadowing kindness and slaughter.

Li Qingshan could clearly feel a chaotic, evil aura rushing toward him as if he had fallen into a demonic abyss, feeling the most terrifying demons up close.

In this word of evil, Li Qingshan saw some of the things the Central Jade Emperor had done.

In his youth, he fell in love with his brother’s wife. At first, he restrained himself, but later, desire burned his rationality. On a rainy night, he used a bewitching technique to spend the night with his sister-in-law, eventually being discovered by his big brother. The brothers split, and he, with determination, killed his big brother, wanting to completely dominate his sister-in-law.

Unfortunately, the sister-in-law couldn’t bear the humiliation and followed her husband, leaving.

This was the first time the Central Jade Emperor, Zhang Bairen, had experienced such deep regret, which he had always hidden and never spoken of, and no one knew.

If it weren’t for now, Li Qingshan wouldn’t have seen it without using his maxed-level comprehension skill.

This was a secret belonging only to the Central Jade Emperor.

After burying his elder brother and his beloved sister-in-law, the Central Jade Emperor secluded himself for a period of time.

At this moment, another brush fell, writing down a few words.

[Ideal]

The word was huge, directly overshadowing evil, kindness, and slaughter.

This word became the goal of the Central Jade Emperor’s struggle in the first half of his life.

Li Qingshan could see that in this word of ideal, the Central Jade Emperor was vigorous, overthrowing the Ancient Celestial Court with his brothers, establishing a new Celestial Court, and creating one of the few peaceful eras in the history of the Immortal Plane.

These scenes flashed by in an instant, but luckily Li Qingshan’s powerful primordial spirit captured them.

As for how the Central Jade Emperor became an emperor, it was shown very rarely in his life.

Until the next moment, when the brush fell again, writing a word.

[Devour]

Li Qingshan finally understood that the Central Jade Emperor’s rise to power was all about devouring the physiques of various geniuses along the way.

He was a genius himself, but his genius lay in being able to devour everything.

Li Qingshan saw that when the word “devour” was written, it didn’t expand but hid within the ideal.

The ideal concealed the act of devouring, so people didn’t notice the Central Jade Emperor’s devouring behavior.

Li Qingshan saw that the Central Jade Emperor had been advancing by devouring the energy of all his targets.

There were scenes showing that after killing enemies, he devoured their primordial spirit energy and cultivation energy to enhance himself.

In that era of overthrowing the Ancient Celestial Court, where battles raged on endlessly and talents were abundant, the Central Jade Emperor not only devoured enemies but also fellow practitioners. He held high the banner of the ideal, fought for it, and at the same time, did not give up on his own future.

Until the final battle, when he alone fought against the five emperors, causing the heavens to collapse and the earth to split, and finally devouring the five emperors, creating a record that was difficult for people to understand.

“As expected, people are complicated. Even the youth who overthrew the Ancient Celestial Court back then held high his ideals and didn’t forget to increase his strength behind his back,” Li Qingshan murmured.

Li Qingshan believed that at that time, the Central Jade Emperor did have ideals.

But having ideals and seeking profit for oneself were not contradictory.
