Chapter 404 Reflecting the Heavenly Empress.
Several ancient vermilion coffins lay across the mountainside, dozens of strange talismans were scattered around them, and a line of footprints stretched across the mountainside, heading towards Qi Zhe.

However, these footprints were not heading towards Qi Zhe; they pointed to the Gate of Reincarnation, which was manifesting one after another.

"Da da."

The footsteps echoed clearly through the mountains, and as they reached Qi Zhe's side, a whisper suddenly rang in his ear.

"They died once more, now they only wish to return to their homeland."

The voice was somewhat sorrowful, carrying a sense of self-reproach. Although it consisted of only a few words, it still recounted a painful past.

The person in the coffin had clearly died in battle once again, and now even resurrection was difficult. They could only ask Qi Zhe to take them back to their hometown.

"You are the Desolate Heavenly Emperor? Why do you say that?"

Qi Zhe raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, not expecting the owner of the footprints to speak up. He couldn't help but confirm the other party's identity and try to figure out everything.

"It's me, I know what you're thinking."

Then a whispered voice suddenly rang out, and the other party responded. Although they were far apart, they could still hear Qi Zhe's words.

"How long can a great war last? Ten thousand years or a hundred thousand years? Actually, it won't take long; the victor will be decided in a short time."

"Ancient history is longer than you think. The chaotic ancient times lasted for endless years. After all the heavens ceased to exist, I used the Great Law to illuminate everything, and the mythological era began."

"That sword severed countless ages and reflected a piece of ancient history, but the world is unaware of it and it has all been forgotten."

"Now everything has started anew, they have fallen in battle once again, but I am powerless to intervene again. I can only try to reincarnate once more."

The words of the Desolate Emperor were astonishing. Even Qi Zhe was unable to remain calm, standing there with his brows furrowed, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

In this world, there is a kind of powerful being who can forcefully reflect everything after all the worlds have been annihilated; as long as one is strong enough, everything can be reproduced.

After the defeat of the heavens, some surviving Immortal Emperors used their supreme powers to illuminate everything. Before them, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor had already illuminated all the heavens.

That event occurred during the chaotic ancient times. It was perhaps a great sacrifice forgotten by the world, in which all the heavens and myriad realms were sacrificed, but he forcibly salvaged everything.

He then broke through the cycle of reincarnation and reached the end of the River of Souls, all to preserve everything, and finally charged into the Calamity Land once again.

Now that the strange phenomenon has returned, he is powerless to reflect upon the powerful figures and can only choose to believe in reincarnation, hoping to reshape everything within it.

Why do you believe me? If it weren't for me, who would have taken your loved ones away?

After thinking for a long time, Qi Zhe became curious, wondering why the other party was telling him these things, as it shouldn't be the case.

“You descended from the river of time, rushing from the end of time to this ancient history. I have seen you before, and I think you are very special.”

"And if it weren't for you, they would sleep here, waiting for my return."

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhe was somewhat dazed. The other party had manifested because of his arrival, which explained everything. Perhaps even the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin was manifested for this reason.

"Was it you who was undergoing my tribulation that day?"

"Indeed, I see you undergoing tribulation; you are about to rise to power."

Qi Zhe stood in the mountains, overwhelmed with mixed feelings. Reflecting on the arduous journey he had taken, he realized that the other party might have been watching him all along.

"I didn't make a move, I just watched." At that moment, the other party also sighed softly, thinking of his glorious past.

"Furthermore, you are special; you are not part of this ancient history. Anyone else in the myriad realms who resonates with me will be locked onto by the Calamity Land."

"Now that my reincarnation is not yet complete, I must embark on my journey again. I can only ask you to take them back to their homeland and bury them on Kunlun Mountain."

"Reincarnation exists there."

The other person sighed, finally venting all the emotions that had been building up over the years, before preparing to leave and continue their journey. "Were those the same people from earlier? Your cousin, your brother, and your children? Did they die at the end of the River of Souls?" Qi Zhe asked one last time.

"Sigh!" the other person sighed, but everything was understood without being said.

At that moment, footsteps sounded again, and a faint line of footprints disappeared into the Gate of Reincarnation, causing the stone gate to dim.

"Buzz!"

The Gate of Reincarnation dissolved and returned to stand as a few stone houses. Qi Zhe witnessed all of this and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

He knew this was the Heavenly Emperor's request, asking him to rebury his relatives in their homeland, and Qi Zhe felt he could do his part.

"Today, I send your souls back to your homeland!"

In the boundless chaos, only Qi Zhe's whispers could be heard as he walked through the mountains toward the several vermilion ancient coffins.

The talismans scattered on the ground were unusual, sealed with astonishing Daoist power, presumably a gift from the other party, and probably related to reincarnation.

Qi Zhe didn't stand on ceremony and collected all the talismans, as they were his payment. He felt it was only right to receive some money for sending off the other party's relatives.

"If these are indeed the bodies of those people, they must be quite astonishing."

When Qi Zhe arrived in front of a coffin, he stared at it for a few moments and couldn't help but mutter to himself. He knew that the body sealed inside was astonishing.

Compared to the nine-layered ancient coffin of the gods that can be opened, the people sealed in these three coffins are unimaginable; even emperors could not lift them.

If Qi Zhe hadn't known that this thing shouldn't be touched carelessly, he felt he would have tried to open the coffin and take a look, and perhaps there would be no more obstacles on his path to immortality.

"Go away!"

At this moment, Qi Zhe shouted, bent down and lifted the coffin. As soon as he put it in his hand, he could feel its weight, heavier than a vast universe.

Moreover, he could tell the material of the ancient coffin as soon as he got his hands on it. It was made of various immortal metals mixed with immortal treasures, and it was incredibly sturdy.

Fortunately, Qi Zhe's cultivation level is now extraordinary, and even the heaviest ancient coffins are no match for him. He successfully collected all three vermilion coffins.

"Boom!"

At that moment, the large crack in the mountain healed rapidly. Qi Zhe glanced at it and then stopped paying attention, striding towards the outside world.

He knew he had gained a lot this time. Not only did he meet the Emperor, but he also had a conversation with the Desolate Emperor. Even without it involving cultivation, he had gained a great deal.

The other party's words about making a comeback were enough to make Qi Zhe think deeply and give him more ideas for the future.

Those dozens of talismans were, after all, left behind by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, possessing astonishing Dao power, and were capable of accomplishing the impossible.

Qi Zhe surmised that just one of them would be enough to send someone into reincarnation, and if several were released at once, he estimated that they could bring back those who died in ancient history.

As long as it doesn't involve the realm of immortality, its effects are enormous. Even if Qi Zhe can't use it now, who can guarantee what it will be like in the future?

The Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin remained on the Chaos Immortal Island, lying amidst the ruins and rubble, as if waiting for him.

"laugh!"

Without hesitation, Qi Zhe unleashed a divine light that reactivated the Nine Dragons and the bronze coffin, then flipped over and stepped onto the ancient coffin.

At this moment, the chaos was pierced, and the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin disappeared without a trace and continued on their way, instantly becoming a boundless chaotic world.

"I've wanted to see Earth and Kunlun for a long time!" Qi Zhe's eyes sparkled; he was genuinely curious about Earth and Kunlun.

The plot needs time to unfold, and my train of thought is getting a bit stuck.
