The man named Zhao Gao was dressed in black official robes, his clothes were luxurious and he wore a crown, which showed that he came from an extraordinary background, but he dared not overstep his bounds in the face of the questioning of the man in front of him.

Although he was of extraordinary birth, serving as the head of the most powerful kingdom in China, the Great Qin Dynasty, compared to the person before him, he was but a firefly vying for the moon's brilliance.

The person before me is the King of Great Qin, the only and strongest overlord on this ancient land.

Zhao Gao's respectful voice echoed through the palace, "I have heard that before the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and Five Emperors, there was Mythic Age of immortals and Immortals and Gods. At that time, Immortals and Gods were everywhere, and humans and gods lived together. Since Emperor Zhuanxu severed the connection between heaven and earth, the immortals have retreated to Penglai overseas and disappeared from worldly affairs, leaving only a few still walking among humans."

"Furthermore, after the Battle of the Investiture of the Gods at the end of the Shang Dynasty, those immortals Immortals and Gods who went to the mortal world also disappeared."

"However, even today, people still flock to Seeking Immortality immortality. It is said that there is a man named Xu Fu from the Qi State who often goes out to sea to visit many fairy islands. He set off again recently and has not returned yet."

"The Penglai overseas? Xu Fu is an interesting man; we should keep an eye on him and try to recruit him if the opportunity arises." The King of Qin pondered, a hint of amusement appearing on his young yet dignified face. "Tell me, what if, after I unify the Nine Provinces of Huaxia, I point the Qin Sword at the Immortals and Gods?"

"My king is so domineering!" Zhao Gao flattered him.

"Hahahaha... Whether it's domineering or not, it ultimately depends on whether my Qin Sword sharp or not!" The King of Qin strode forward, the sound of his boots landing echoing in Zhao Gao's ears as he leaned down, "I hereby order Li Si, Li Xin, Wang Jian, Meng Tian to quickly formulate a strategy for an eastward expedition!"

"Within ten years, I will see the Qin Sword emerge from the east and subdue the world!"

"After that, we will conquer Penglai again—"

"I submit to the Immortals and Gods and immortals!"

"May my king live ten thousand years, Great Qin Dynasty live ten thousand years!"

Amidst the cheers and shouts, the sun rose, its brilliant morning light bathing the magnificent and sprawling palaces of Xianyang, the capital of the Qin state, in a glorious glow.

East China Sea shore.

Amidst the morning mist, one can vaguely see giant trees swaying.

Someone rubbed their bright red eyes, their long, jet-black hair flowing freely.

"It's dawn..."

"I slept for a very, very long time—"

In the ' Primordial Highest Heaven ', Rovi suddenly opened his eyes. He had become a genuine Primordial God and reached the highest point of the planet. Theoretically, he would not dream, since dreams are merely the flow and manifestation of a being's consciousness. However, just a moment ago... he had a dream.

What is a nightmare to others is a sign of a good dream to oneself!

In my dream, he was dead!

Crushed into dust by the chaotic and unknowable light and shadow, the body was obliterated, the soul was shattered, and the original outer shell was peeled away layer by layer, leaving only the pure Spirit Core imprint.

This is a dream.

It was also a 'premonition'—

"Rovi, what's wrong?" Rovi met a pair of eyes full of confusion and worry.

Ereshkigal leaned forward slightly, her red shawl swaying incessantly, her slightly exposed chest tilting forward as she leaned forward, her legs crossed, and her waist, wrapped in black fabric, arched and curved, exuding a sense of allure.

The Mesopotamian Goddess of the Underworld seemed worried. "Are you alright?"

How do people in the human world show concern for the health of others?

Ereshkigal for a moment.

Then suddenly she brought her head close, her slightly raised forehead touching Rovi's forehead, the smooth, warm touch washing over them.

Rovi was stunned for a moment, looking at the goddess's exquisite and pretty face so close to his eyes, her red lips moist and soft, within sight.

"Huh—!?" The girl seemed to be in a daze for a moment, then suddenly realized that her current actions were inappropriate.

She instinctively wanted to move away, but Rovi simply tilted his face up...

"Hmm!?" Lips pressed tightly against hers, invading her, and the girl's face instantly turned extremely red. She struggled slightly, but seemed reluctant to leave.

They separated, panting, after a few moments...

"Something came up just now, but I'm fine now." Rovi Wei laughed heartily, "With you here, everything's alright."

"Damn it... ugh..." Steam rose from above.

I feel like my whole body is burning up.

Oh no, could it be that Rovi is fine, but now it's her turn to be in trouble?

However, if it's something like this, Ereshkigal would actually be willing to come a few more times...

"Where is Mother Goddess?" Rovi stood up and helped up Ereshkigal, who was slumped on the ground.

Ereshkigal swayed slightly, realizing she couldn't stand steadily, so she leaned against Luo Rovi: "Mother Goddess, go to sleep."

sleep?

Rovi raised an eyebrow. "A transformation?"

He looked around at the scenery. He had been here for a while, and the chaotic environment was now much more stable than before. There was more and more solidified lava, and the fog in the air was gradually sinking.

A system, like a water vapor cycle, is constructed invisibly.

Tiamat is the primordial Mother Goddess and the primordial Chaos Sea, but living beings can enter and evolve from the initial underwater life into countless species. Gods also possess this ability.

However, most of the original gods did not live to see this moment and all disappeared.

Tiamat was also betrayed and banished by the Mesopotamian gods, thus unable to gain progress or unravel the primordial mystery.

But now, this Primordial Highest Heaven has given Tiamat another chance.

As the environment stabilized, she also gradually stabilized and progressed.

As a result, Tiamat slept more and woke up less during this period.

"I really envy Mother Goddess for becoming stronger..." Ereshkigal muttered softly.

The primordial Mother Goddess was far stronger than her, yet she still had the opportunity to become stronger.

Despite being the Goddess of the Underworld, Ereshkigal's progress over the long years has been limited.

She was already a senior god of the underworld.

However, there is still a slight distance between them and the position of the Area God- king.

"There will be opportunities, and I won't look down on you just because you're weak—"

"So you still think I'm weak?"

"Otherwise what?"

"You..."

Before Ereshkigal could finish speaking, her mouth was once again covered.

Their lips parted in an instant, and their cheeks flushed.

"You're not weak, why would I bully you like this!?"

Ereshkigal ground her teeth. Although it felt somewhat comfortable, she still felt uncomfortable.

"When I become stronger—I'll treat you the same way!"

Rovi was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Wouldn't she be the one who suffers the most if she did this to him?

However, Rovi Wei was happy to see it happen. He took Ereshkigal's hand, held it tightly in his palm, and walked forward.

The Primordial Highest Heaven were of course devoid of scenery, but Ereshkigal found this moment exquisite.

After a moment of silence, Ereshkigal turned her gaze to the side. "Are you leaving?"

"Hmm." Rovi nodded, not intending to hide anything. "I still have things to do."

"Is it something I can't help with?" Ereshkigal asked, somewhat disappointed.

"Hmm." Rovi nodded again, but then suddenly said, "Your presence is actually the greatest help you can give me!"

He gently embraced Ereshkigal and said, "Because of your existence... I have a 'home' in this world."

"And I will make you stronger."

A warm embrace enveloped her, her heart pounded, and Ereshkigal blushed, yet felt incredibly happy.

Happy, joyful...

It wasn't until Rovi's figure disappeared into the Primordial Highest Heaven, until his voice, "Help me say goodbye to the sleeping Mother Goddess, I'll be back soon," drifted into the gradually stabilizing mortal realm, that Ereshkigal suddenly came to her senses.

What he just said... sounded like he meant "you all," not "you"!?

The Goddess of the Underworld suddenly turned dangerous and sharp.

The departed Rovi would never know the psychological shift that Ereshkigal underwent in that instant.

After leaving the Primordial Highest Heaven, he naturally appeared in the atmosphere above the planet. The rising sun cast its light on the rugged waves of the sea, rippling in layers, while seagulls flew over the clouds.

Rovi stands suspended in mid-air, but in reality, he exists in a mezzanine space of another dimension.

This is how we observe the changes in the world.

With this, gaze upon the present.

Where to go next was no longer a concern; the dream he had just experienced was still fresh in his mind, and the threat and danger of death were exactly what Rovi longed to encounter.

The danger lies in the East.

In his homeland—China, the land of China.

Yanhuang land.

Unfortunately, this is ultimately a different world; though similar, it is only superficially similar.

Even so, Rovi still felt somewhat sentimental, even excited.

His thoughts drifted slightly as his body sank and fell.

We traversed dimensions and the atmosphere that shrouds the Star River, heading southeast towards Scandinavia.

The vast sea rippled, and Rovi and his celestial steeds descended not directly on the heartland of Divine Land Huaxia, but rather on its periphery.

Because the chaos in his 'dream' also appeared here.

In that instant, what I saw was the surging waves of the East China Sea. Unlike the seas of Northern Europe, the waters here flowed extremely rapidly and violently. In the sea, I could see schools of fish rising and falling, and giant sharks circling around.

Occasionally, Kun Fish suspended in the sky raises a huge column of water, connecting heaven and earth.

Then came a loud boom.

The Machine God has appeared and descended!

The sea surface suddenly became still, and the planets seemed to stop rotating for a moment.

All things and spirits are silenced and tremble with fear.

The ' Rovi-go ' aircraft appeared directly on the vast sea surface and landed on the head of the Kun Fish, causing the Kun Fish to let out a miserable cry and be directly smashed into large swaths of clouds.

'Ha... Just as I thought!' Rovi of the Machine God laughed loudly.

The 'dream' he sensed was right here. Although the Kun Fish was lifelike, it was not a real Kun spirit at all, but merely an illusion created by the clouds.

Like a mirage, only by smashing it and tearing through the clouds can one see what Rovi is looking for.

The engine ignited, and flames erupted like lava. The power of the primordial star god gathered and surged between his palms. Rovi stretched his hands forward, grabbed a corner of the cloud, and pushed forward, lifting it up!

Creak, creak, creak—

The sound of the door opening echoed.

Layers of clouds were pulled open like doors, and a 'tree' appeared behind them.

The magnificent canopy of the tree flourishes on the sea surface, its glistening branches gleaming with golden light.

The emergence of trees also brought with it a sprawling expanse of soil.

The 'earth' is woven from roots.

Rovi stood on the 'ground' and looked up. Even with his towering, mountain-like Machine God, he was still much shorter than the tree. When he raised his hand, he could only barely touch one-tenth of its height.

Without a doubt, this is a sacred tree.

"Ancient legends say that to the east of Shenzhou, Divine Tree Fusang, which is the place where the sun rises. Xihe the solar system sets off from here every day to travel between the heavens..." For some reason, the myth that Rovi had known for a long time suddenly came to mind.

Is the source he senses Fusang?

The massive Machine God fell into deep thought. At that moment, a small, clear voice, as if struggling, reached Rovi's ears. "Bastard... let me out—"

Rovi was stunned for a moment, not quite reacting, before slowly lifting his foot...

"It's under your feet, you bastard!"

"Oh." Only then did Rovi realize what was happening, and he slightly lifted his foot.

The drooping golden-red eyes saw the figure lying at the feet of the Machine God.

She was a rather young and beautiful woman with long, ink-black hair, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and ruby-like eyes that, though slightly dull, were as beautiful as gemstones. Her graceful figure was only covered by a light brown brocade dress, which concealed a small portion of her body. Her rounded breasts and waist complemented each other, and her full thighs meandered along them.

Despite her beauty, Rovi knew in an instant that she was neither human nor god. The mechanism by which she existed and operated was similar to that of the star god Rovi created. She was an existence with a very clear connection to the planet, but it was obviously impossible for her to be a star god.

"Planet Spirit who has been put to flesh? Sorry, you're too weak to notice." Rovi's response seemed insincere, yet it was the truth.

Having just been drawn to the ' Fusang Tree ', he had no time to notice the 'ants' at his feet.

"You rude giant, are you some supreme god from somewhere?! Hmph... never mind!"

But the 'person' only muttered a few words, then swayed as he got up. "Honestly, I just woke up and you, this big guy, disturbed me—"

"So annoying! So annoying! So annoying!"

Unafraid of the primordial presence, as if accustomed to it, amidst the clamor, she looked up at Rovi, revealing a pair of small, tiger-toothed fangs. "If you really want to apologize, why don't you give me some of your blood?"

"—I'm hungry too, so out of respect for you being the supreme god, I'll reluctantly accept this form of compensation!" she muttered to herself.

Rovi's voice sounded slightly strange, "Are you... sure?"

"Hmph, you don't want to? Fine, then!" Despite her appearance being that of a young girl, her temper was clearly not good. "I've seen plenty of supreme gods, and I even know the Three Sovereigns—"

"I don't need your blood!"

A free spirit does not need any energy, but after being subjected to flesh, it becomes a different concept.

Because the body of an elf also originates from the body, it needs 'blood' to maintain the vitality of its physical body.

It was obvious that the girl didn't care about human blood, let alone the blood of ordinary living beings. Rovi could sense the emptiness in her body; she probably hadn't drunk any blood since she was born.

The reason why they are interested in Rovi's blood is simply because of his nature as a 'supreme god', yet he also possesses 'blood'.

—The blood of the Divine Spirit is essentially self-generated, and has no effect on her.

Having just woken up, she was somewhat indiscriminate in her hunger, though this "indiscriminate" requirement was a bit too high, as no one but Rovi Wei could satisfy it.

However, although—

"My blood is engine oil now..." Rovi wanted to say, but he knew that the 'elf' in front of him would definitely know what engine oil was, so he gave up.

"This is the first time I've ever seen such a strange request." He stretched out his finger, and a drop of gold dripped from his fingertip.

A rich divine aura spread out, and the girl paused for a moment before subconsciously licking her lips and reaching out to catch it.

"You're smart to know what's good for you!"

As she said this, she put the 'blood' into her mouth.

After the thud

"Hiccup... Pfft!!! What is this?!"

Rovi couldn't help but laugh.

So, this is the first time I've ever seen such a strange request.
