"Evil Heavenly Emperor, my philosophy of survival is that helping others is helping oneself. I went to great lengths to help you collect the eighteen Black Buddha Relics; as long as you become the one-and-only peerless Slaughter Buddha, my merit will be fulfilled. I know full well that I can never become a being like the Ten Great Immortal Emperors of the Ages, nor have I received the Eternal Night inheritance as you have. There are too many things in this world I am powerless to change, but I can choose someone capable of changing everything—and that person can only be you."
After the Future Buddha finished speaking, Chen Xuan was not particularly moved. "If everything you have done so far was to help me, then you shouldn't have played games at the beginning and kept me suppressed for over a hundred years. Future Buddha, I, the Evil Emperor, am willing to cooperate with you only because I still find you useful. If I wanted to, I could undo all your efforts with a single trump card."
As he spoke, Chen Xuan immediately activated the power of the fifteen Black Buddha Relics. The energy swirled between the pagodas, eventually merging completely into the forest of towers as he attempted to unlock their mysteries.
