The appearance of the immortals Immortals and Gods in the mortal realm under the name 'Donghua' only elicited surprise and slight worry from other extraordinary individuals and people due to the sudden changes in the mortal realm.

For the master of this magnificent hall, who was surrounded by the Nine-Tailed Fox, it was not just surprise and worry.

The 'Donghua' ascended to godhood based on the Fusang Tree, which is a divine tree of sunrise and sunset, representing the morning sun and belonging to the authority of the 'sun'.

That was what she was pursuing...

"Is this a contingency plan left behind by those departed immortals Immortals and Gods? No, if it were them, they probably wouldn't be so open about it..."

"Hmph, those guys tricked me into hindering the Shang Dynasty's conquest of the Tang Dynasty, but in the end, they broke their promise and suppressed me..."

"Shut up! Isn't it because you went too far? Which of the things you did was done by you at their behest? Su Daji!"

"Don't mention that name to me, Bao Si!"

"..."

Even though there was only one 'person' in the palace, different sounds emanated from within.

It came from that 'person's' mouth.

And it was from those nine tails that a whistling sound emanated...

"What's there to argue about with yourself?" The main body of the 'human' yawned lazily. "But you're right, I've finally achieved the Nine-Tails United and gained the power of the original form, so I won't give up here so easily."

She glanced behind her with her golden eyes and let out a light laugh. Nine tails housed multiple 'personalities'.

That is her, yet it is not her; it is a different existence derived from her as the main subject.

It once wiped out two different 'demons' from previous dynasties, once ravaged a region with demon kings, and once usurped the throne with a demon concubine... Each of them was a powerful demon comparable to a top- Divine Being level. Now, having returned to the main body, the existence of this demon is unimaginably terrifying.

Therefore, although she was surprised by the appearance of 'Donghua', she did not feel the slightest fear, at most only a little apprehension.

"And it is indeed interesting."

"The presence of the 'Donghua' aura seems to be related to the primordial being that appeared in the vast frozen land of the North some time ago, or rather, it is highly likely that they are the same being."

"After all, there aren't that many Primordial...

"Oh dear~~~"

"Then let's play with him for a bit!"

With a flirtatious voice, the nine-tailed fox stirred and rose. The woman lying in the palace twisted her buttocks and slowly got up. Her dark robes hung down, half-concealing her full breasts. As she swayed, her legs swung out from the hem, the black silk tightly outlining and revealing her roundness.

A light drizzle falls outside the window, reflecting off the long, smooth, orange hair that is as soft and supple as the Blazing Sun.

She looked outside.

Her red lips curved into a charming and playful smile as she gazed at the dome, her eyes reflecting the sunlight streaming through the rain.

In the sky, a sliver of the rising sun shines faintly.

The dazzling light flashed and disappeared in an instant. The intense, scorching mystery that had been in the eyes of countless extraordinary individuals vanished as if it had never existed. When they looked at the morning sun again, they felt that something was different from before.

The East China Sea, with its undulating waves and rolling billows, remained as it always had. The heavy fog dissipated, and the Seeking Immortality ships rose and fell, swaying with the wind, no longer facing the previous crisis.

The dragon blood that fell on the sea surface quickly faded and disappeared, comparable to the blood left by a true deity, a demigod dragon. Compared to the vast ocean, it seemed insignificant.

The sailors breathed a sigh of relief, but each bowed to the still swaying 'giant Fusang tree' in gratitude.

Strands of humanity and faith flowed into it, settling on Luo Rovi under the tree.

He glanced at it only once, and then incorporated it into the 'sword' in his hand.

He released his grip, but the sword remained suspended in mid-air.

After absorbing 'humanity', it gained a trace of spirituality—or perhaps it should be called 'divinity', the humanity that gods possess.

The red hue shimmered with light...

"From now on, I will call you Pure Yang Sword!"

Rovi took a half step back, and at the same time, his long robe instantly transformed into a wide-sleeved Huaxia Attire. He wore a crown and tied up his full head of black hair. His face was handsome, yet he exuded a strong masculine aura.

Before, it was clear that he came from a foreign land, but in this instant, he has completely blended into this land.

Rovi chuckled softly.

"Donghua?"

"That's a good name!"

This name and this position undoubtedly meet Rovi's's requirements... It doesn't necessarily bring an increase in the Sun Authority of the Sun God and the status of the emperor are only equivalent to the level of a high-ranking god or 'god king'. For someone like Rovi, who is a primordial being, the increase is almost negligible.

Even if there was no Emperor Dong Hua before this, Rovi had Fusang as his support, and there was no such thing as the previous 'stealing' of Yahweh before obtaining the Void Spirit, because he was Donghua, and this name originated from his existence in this world.

What Rovi values is still the 'destiny' that may exist behind this divine name.

Donghua, also known as Emperor Dong Hua, was a well-known Immortals and Gods in later generations. He held a lofty position, being both a god and an immortal. There is also the mythical story of how, after his death and the dissipation of his Dao, he was reborn as a human—becoming the famous Patriarch Lu Dongbin of Pure Yang.

Rovi named the sword in his hand "Chunyang" in part, which also implies his desire for this destiny.

He wanted to use his name.

This should also leave behind a chance for death.

With each step, Rovi tries to leave himself as much possibility as possible.

"Are you... playing tricks on me again!?" Yu Ji finally couldn't hold back any longer, and she flipped over and rushed forward, grabbing Rovi's's collar.

Her fur-trimmed coat billowed behind her with her movements, her long black hair cascading down. ' Fairy Yu's ' delicate face was filled with resentment, her chest heaving violently, creating waves of color. She slightly rose on her tiptoes, crossing her legs and drawing them together, revealing her flat, warm abdomen. "Fusang Tree, Donghua... you... hmph!"

In an instant, his expression changed, from resentment and depression to helplessness, and then to sudden realization.

As if suddenly realizing something, she let go of her hand. "Hmph, whatever, this is so annoying. Anyway, this place wasn't originally mine, so do whatever you want."

"It's not me, it was never me to begin with—so why should I be sad and angry?"

Yu Ji curled her lip, a disdainful expression appearing on her pretty face. "Fine, take it then!"

So you knew this wasn't you?

Rovi laughed, "Don't worry, this place belongs to me now, but I can lend it to you for as long as you want."

"Do you need to tell me that?" Yu Ji snorted, tossing her long black hair to reveal a pair of small, delicate canine teeth. "You can't get rid of me even if you want to!"

"But if you dare disturb me while I'm sleeping again..."

"Then I will definitely show you!"

"As you wish," Rovi laughed heartily.

Yu Ji, who thought herself fierce, was actually quite fierce, especially since she posed almost no threat to Rovi's. She was practically like a kitten baring its teeth and claws at him.

It's hard not to laugh.

"That... Emperor... Your Majesty?" A small, slightly timid, but clear voice rang out from the side.

Having been closely observing the changes from the moment before to now, Xu Fu raised his hand.

"Call me Donghua, or you can call me Rovi, it's up to you." Rovi looked over and smiled at the little girl, appearing quite gentle.

After all, he was my first 'witness'.

As his initial 'anchor' to the Divine Land, Xu Fu deserves a somewhat special treatment.

"How can that be?" Xu Fu seemed to have mustered up his courage. "Your Majesty, you are Your Majesty."

"Speaking of which, why are you Seeking Immortality?" Rovi suddenly asked.

It seems that up to this point, Xu Fu had never asked Yu Ji for anything.

It was as if they had only come to see them once.

"Seeking Immortality, isn't it all about Seeking Immortality?" Xu Fu, somewhat bewildered. "What else could it be for?"

"..."

This child... seems even more foolish than Yu Ji?

Rovi glanced sideways at the graceful, exquisitely beautiful girl beside him.

He was met with Yu Ji's gaze, which was full of confusion and wariness.

I have a feeling this person is thinking something very rude...

But Yu Ji also felt it was rather strange. Ordinary people seek out immortals with a purpose, either to seek magic to embark on the path to immortality, or to seek elixirs to ascend to heaven in broad daylight and live forever.

Those who seek immortality often yearn not for immortals, but for the path to immortality.

But Xu Fu was the opposite...

Not only did he not ask for anything, he even offered to do things for her. "If you need any help, I will definitely help you!"

Even Yu Ji was used to seeing Seeking Immortality, was somewhat amused and exasperated, and the inexplicable dislike she had previously harbored for them dissipated.

Faced with such a silly child, who could feel genuine disgust?

Yu Ji hated humans because of their endless desires.

"We don't need your help. On the contrary, I will give you something." Rovi flicked his sleeve, took out something, bent down slightly to look Xu Fu was only up to his chest, at eye level, and handed the item to her.

It was a piece of jade in a black and white yin-yang shape. "This is..."

"A reward." Rovi rubbed Xu Fu's head through his hat.

It's a reward.

But it's actually a wedge.

It was his ability to create 'keys' as the ' Key of Heaven ' that he hadn't used for a long time, or perhaps didn't need to use for a long time.

It will serve as the first physical artifact left by Rovi Wei in China, proving his true existence, and Xu Fu, who possesses this artifact, will also receive the protection of the ' Emperor Dong Hua '.

"Hmm..." Xu Fu blushed slightly. He really wanted to take off his hat and let Rovi rub it, but he felt that it would be a bit strange.

So she gripped the jade tightly in her hand.

Rovi withdrew his hand. "Go on, your companions are still waiting for you."

"Your Majesty, will we ever meet again?"

"Of course."

"Hmph, don't disturb my sleep next time, or I'll really eat you all up!"

The combination of a gentle emperor and a volatile fairy seemed rather strange no matter how you looked at it, but Xu Fu simply nodded emphatically. "I will definitely come out to find you in the future!"

"And I'll be bringing lots and lots of gifts—"

Xu Fu returned to the ship, and the group that had come to Seeking Immortality returned home full of excitement and with a full load of goods. Although the others had not been able to see the immortals, they had seen the sword that slew the dragon and the divine tree that was higher than the sky. They also felt refreshed and invigorated, as if they had received the blessing of the gods.

"I'll probably have to wait until the Great Qin is established before I can come back again." Rovi gazed at the distant sailboat.

Yu Ji inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally!"

I always feel very uncomfortable in crowded places.

"Um, what is this...?" Yu Ji looked at Rovi, stunned.

Rovi sat cross-legged, his posture upright, and a faint light emanated from his body, flowing like a nebula.

"Cultivating immortality." Rovi said seriously, "After all, I'm called an 'Emperor,' so I should at least practice some cultivation to better fit this identity."

"Speaking of which—this was actually a simulation I did by measuring the frequency of the magic power—no, the mana—circulation within that little girl's body."

"It feels a bit rough?"

"..."

So you don't know? Then why were you talking so confidently before?

It's one thing for Seeking Immortality to Seeking Immortality but not gain much benefit, but to have their own "magic techniques" learned by immortals is something that has never been heard of before.

"That little girl is probably learning Taoist School techniques. Taoist School techniques originate from Huang Lao and Laozi. Although what she's learned is exquisite, she hasn't yet touched the path of immortality, so of course it's still superficial." Yu Ji casually commented, shaking her head. "Hmph, if you really want to learn, you can come to me. Whether it's Huang Lao's secret techniques or the Qi Cultivation Method created by ancient Immortal True Person, I remember them all clearly!"

"If you want to learn, I can teach you."

"You're begging... umm?"

Yu Ji looked at Rovi, who was sitting cross-legged in front of her, and saw that layers of aura suddenly spread around him, with countless 'magic powers' swirling around him like nebulae.

Originating from Xu Fu's rudimentary Qi cultivation technique, it instantly became incredibly profound.

It is in no way inferior to the Qi cultivation technique meticulously created by the 'ancient Immortal True Person ' mentioned by Yu Ji.

For a moment, I am immortal.

His human form resonated instinctively with the planet, as if he had simultaneously transformed into Star Spirit.

But the next second, he was abolished by Rovi.

The girl's lips parted, but the words she uttered caught in her throat.

But Rovi simply opened his eyes. "It seems... something's still not right?"

It can only be said that with the support of the original-level Machine God, Rovi's computing power has reached a level that even ordinary supreme gods cannot match.

Any Qi cultivation technique that enters his hands can be instantly innovated, leading directly to the possibility of the 'original' state—although this possibility is still extremely slim, it is already terrifying enough.

However, it did not improve Rovi himself in any way; it was merely icing on the cake.

He could sense that this was not what he wanted.

What he wanted...

"Cough cough cough, that's... that's all." Yu Ji's words were slightly unnatural, a faint blush appearing on her pretty face. She coughed softly, crossing her arms over her chest to conceal her overflowing fullness. "What's Qi cultivation? I also know of the 'ancient' methods that were popular during the Xia Dynasty, which were long forgotten..."

Xia Dynasty? The old days?

Rovi's heart skipped a beat, and he looked over abruptly.
