Emperor Xi didn't say anything else. He took the Nine-Transformation Immortality Pill and swallowed it directly.
And when Emperor Xi took the Nine-Transformation Immortality Pill, the slight feeling of weakness in his body suddenly disappeared, and he returned to his peak state.
After Emperor Xi returned to his peak state, he instantly displayed supreme brilliance, which then disappeared in an instant, returning to his unpolished jade state.
However, even the glimmer of supreme brilliance that Emperor Xi had just displayed made Chen Lei feel tremendous pressure, but at the same time he also benefited a lot and got a glimpse of the supreme mystery.
"Chen Lei, I really have to thank you this time. With this extra million years of life, I am sure that I can break through the shackles of heaven and earth and ascend to the spiritual world." Emperor Xi said to Chen Lei.
At the level of Emperor Xi, ascending to the spiritual world has become his only goal.
Emperor Xi has already touched upon a possibility of ascending to the spiritual world, but his lifespan is not enough for him to hold on until that time. With an extra million years of lifespan, Emperor Xi will have no problem ascending to the spiritual world and it will be absolutely safe.
However, although Emperor Xi has already touched upon a possibility of ascending to the spiritual world, if he wants to fully ascend, it will probably take hundreds of thousands of years before he can be 70% to 80% sure of it.
Of course, during this period of time, Emperor Xi will always protect the human race.
Afterwards, Emperor Xi said, "Chen Lei, over the years, because of my limited life span, I have been training successors, hoping to train a guardian god for the human race again. Although I have trained more than a dozen disciples, I am not very satisfied with any of them. But my life span is coming to an end, so even if they are not very satisfied, there is nothing I can do. They can also take on some of the responsibilities, at least after I die, they can protect a part of the human race. But now that I have seen you, I find that you are the one that satisfies me the most. Are you willing to take on the responsibility of protecting the human race?"
Emperor Xi’s words made Chen Lei fall into deep thought.
In fact, Chen Lei did not want to take on too much responsibility, and what Emperor Xi said was actually to put the heavy responsibility of protecting the human race in his hands.
If it were according to Chen Lei's original intention, he did not want to take on this burden. However, the current situation of the human race is indeed not good. Under such circumstances, if he does not take on this burden, after Emperor Xi really ascends to the spiritual world, the human race may really be in danger of being exterminated. At that time, when the nest is overturned, no eggs will be safe. He will probably be hunted endlessly, and his parents, wife, sister and others who ascended from the middle world will have no place to stand.
For the safety of his family and relatives, Chen Lei had to take on this burden.
"Palace Master, I am willing..."
In the end, Chen Lei did not refuse the request made by Emperor Xi and agreed to it.
Emperor Xi smiled and said, "That's right. I can see that you hesitated just now. I also know what you are thinking. Even if it is for your family, you have to take on this burden."
Chen Lei said: "Palace Master, although I have accepted this responsibility, with my current strength, I am simply unable to protect the entire human race."
Emperor Xi said, "Don't worry. I still have a million years to live. In these million years, I believe you will definitely grow into an almighty powerful being feared by all the races in the upper realm. I am sure of this."
