The Crisis of Becoming a Singularity Point

At this moment, bursts of dragon roars emanated from the majestic Qin Palace, spreading a terrifying aura.

Its influence spread throughout the former territory of the Qin state.

Even the entire world that had been unified by the Great Qin Dynasty.

Within the Dong Hua Palace, divine light appeared, and a Peach Tree of Immortality materialized, its power emanating from the planet obscuring an area spanning a hundred miles.

On Mount Li, a goddess with flowing golden hair wielded a long spear from Fever Temple, drawing back the curtain of the underworld.

In the Wei River, Wuzhiqi lazily yawned, then reached out and stirred up the waves.

The surface of the Wei River was churning with water vapor, and a thick fog rose up.

They each protected their surrounding territory.

Yu Ji is still in seclusion, Ereshkigal Lei is connecting the north and south of the Underworld, Wuzhiqi is still sealed away.

All the capable Holy City are observing.

Without the decree of the Heavenly Emperor, no one can descend to the mortal realm.

Inside the palace, however, the officials kept their heads down, not daring to look at the figure on the throne, for they were afraid to stare into the cold dragon eyes, and even more afraid to gaze at the black mist that was spreading out, and the countless writhing 'dragon scales' that were vaguely spreading out of the mist.

Li Si dared not, Zhao Gao stood beside the First Emperor, looking restrained and trembling, not daring to move an inch.

Because of the changes that First Emperor during this period of time.

His majesty was heavy.

His personality gradually became more and more unpredictable.

As a result, they dared not inform the emperor of the actual situation, nor did they dare tell the emperor that the world was in chaos.

Demons and monsters roam freely, and evil spirits are everywhere.

Furthermore, Six States joined in an attempt to win over the hearts and minds of the people, planning to stage an assassination attempt on the King of Qin.

This change actually stemmed from the changes in the First Emperor himself.

The 'dragon' he transformed into

This created the basis for the existence of demons.

"Your Majesty's divine might is so great that even Immortals and Gods cannot match it." A man still spoke with a smile, wearing a black robe, with two strands of light blue hair on his forehead reflecting a crystalline glow.

This man, though of light appearance, stood at the head of the three ranks among the officials. He was the one who replaced Xu Fu's puppet ' Siming ' after he returned to the Dong Hua Palace and became the 'new Imperial Advisor '. He claimed to be an ancient True Immortal from Penglai, possessing the power that would allow the First Emperor to truly rule the Three Realms, not just the Divine Land.

He offered up the methods of the ancient sages, and the First Emperor cultivated a body resembling the ' Ancestral Dragon '.

Is it good or bad?

The officials were unaware of this.

However, they all knew that the First Emperor trusted this man inexplicably, trusting him as much as he trusted himself.

The Imperial Advisor said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Your Majesty's true dragon body has been formed. No matter how vast the world is, no one can withstand Your Majesty's divine might!"

"Hahaha—well said!" The First Emperor laughed, "It's a pity that my twelve golden statues were not completed, otherwise, I would surely have made the immortals Immortals and Gods submit."

"It doesn't matter if the Twelve Golden Men are not completed," the 'person' said. "Since they cannot be completed, then—what harm is there in taking the Azure Heaven's coffin in their place?"

The ministers were instantly speechless.

The First Emperor, sitting on the throne, also looked over in an instant, his golden eyes suddenly turning extremely cold.

"Are you inciting me to oppose the 'Heaven' that I personally acknowledge and revere?"

The man was still smiling.

"Why not? I don't recall His Majesty being a person who reveres Heaven and God—"

The First Emperor was indeed not a person who revered Heaven and gods, because he always believed that he was not under Heaven, much less above any deity.

As the supreme ruler of the nine provinces, the first emperor to truly unify the Chinese people and achieve Yanhuang surpassing those of the Three Sovereigns and Emperors, he never lacked such magnanimity and confidence.

However, he said, "Although I do not follow Heaven or believe in God, I will not do anything to harm my friends."

Although their relationship was brief, Rovi was one of the few people in the First Emperor's eyes who could be considered equal to him and who never acted like a Immortals and Gods being.

Therefore, it is only natural that he regarded him as a friend of equal status.

The emperor's friendships did not need to be genuine.

I only ask for one.

The Imperial Advisor of Penglai was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Friend? That's a term I've never heard before—"

"Ha ha ha, someone like you can't possibly understand me!"

The First Emperor's laughter was deep and resonant, like the roar of a dragon. The pillars at the four corners of the Qin Palace stood tall and imposing.

The officials remained silent with their heads bowed, and then the First Emperor asked, "On this day, is there anything you wish to report?"

After the words were spoken, the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. After a long while, someone finally answered, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

"What do you want?"

"Your Majesty, I have something to present to you!"

What is it?

The First Emperor raised an eyebrow, his golden dragon eyes piercing through the thick black mist as he looked at the speaker.

He was an official with a slightly slender build.

The official said, "It is a Divine Sword."

"Divine Sword?"

"That's right, this sword embodies the hopes of all people, gathers the essence of mountains and rivers, and collects the spirit of heaven and earth."

What is the name of the sword?

"The sword is named 'Junwen' (君问), meaning 'to ask the king a question for the world'."

"Ask Your Majesty—"

"Dare you drink from this sword?!"

As soon as the words fell, a sharp clang rang out, and a sword suddenly appeared between the official's long sleeves. His crown fell off, and his long, black hair flew up, revealing his pretty face.

It was a woman.

Even more shockingly, it was an assassin.

Her sword was extremely fast and sharp, flashing like lightning. Before the officials could react and the palace guards could defend themselves, she was already in front of the First Emperor, and her sword had pierced through the vast black mist that enveloped the emperor.

whoosh whoosh...

The woman pursed her lips tightly, her face solemn.

This sword strike is a vow to assassinate the Qin emperor for the sake of the people.

However, before the sword light arrived, it was tightly gripped by a dragon claw that emerged from the mist, emitting a buzzing sound, "Not bad sword, but unfortunately, it's still too slow."

As soon as the words were spoken, a tremendous force struck her head-on, sending the girl disguised as an official flying and crashing heavily to the ground.

"It's a familiar scene... Although he's a little late, he's still here." The ' Imperial Advisor ' smiled.

The First Emperor glanced at him. "Was this something you expected?"

"Consider the total of eight hundred taels, it's nothing more than an ordinary matter to me," the Imperial Advisor nodded.

The First Emperor snorted, looking down at the girl below who had fallen to the ground but quickly gotten up and gripped her long sword tightly.

He said, "Your sword is pure and generous, with the spirit of chivalrous wanderers from Yan and Zhao."

"Are you originally from the Yan State?"

"The Wei State, Jing Ke." The girl raised her hand to wipe the blood from her lips.

The First Emperor asked, "Why did you assassinate me?"

"Now that the world is unified, I didn't want to come, but now I have no choice but to come," Jing Ke replied, standing up.

"Why?"

"For the sake of all the people under heaven!" Jing Ke stroked his sword and stood up.

The swordswoman who had met Rovi once in Yan State did not want to come. She did not reject the unification of the world. In her opinion, a unified world, ending the strife and war, might lead to a better era for China.

Therefore, although she had helped Crown Prince Dan of Yan State find helpers many times before, she never personally took action for him.

I was just observing.

They just stood by and watched.

She fulfilled her responsibilities as a friend.

With the world unified, the people did indeed enjoy a period of good life, but this good fortune did not last long.

Demons suddenly appeared.

However, the Qin Dynasty officials turned a blind eye to this.

The source of the demonic manifestation is this very figure sitting high on the emperor's throne.

That's why Jing Ke wanted to assassinate the King of Qin.

He wanted to assassinate the Qin emperor for the sake of all the people of the world.

The Yan and Zhao regions are known for their many generous and tragic heroes, and she wouldn't mind emulating them once.

"I have not drunk any alcohol for many days in preparation for this assassination attempt on the King of Qin."

"It's rare to be clear-headed in life."

"Your Majesty, take a good look at this sharp sword, this dazzling shadow."

"Could you pierce through your heavy body?"

"Hahaha, a sword for all people?" The First Emperor laughed, seemingly unsurprised. The dark mist instantly expanded, revealing the enormous body of a black dragon, its scales writhing and shimmering with light. "Then come on, give it a try!"

The sword light shone again.

Jing Ke frowned and stepped forward.

The dragon's roar echoed throughout the palace.

On the land of Qilu, pear trees bloom and wither in an instant; the once magnificent trees vanish in the blink of an eye.

When everyone came to their senses, they found that there was nothing in front of them, and the previous scene seemed to have been just an illusion.

The emptiness in one's heart will also return.

But Wukong, who had been watching from the stone bridge, knew it wasn't an illusion. She scratched her head and looked at Rovi, who had just returned to her side. "Did Master slay that demon?"

"It's just letting Him find His rightful place!" Rovi glanced at her. "I won't be at peace until I slay the demons who try to disrupt the world!"

Wukong clapped his hands and exclaimed with delight, "Great, Master! That's exactly how it should be!"

"Don't do it here." Rovi flicked Wukong's forehead, and as the girl cried out in pain, he adjusted his sleeves and said, "The Divine Land has changed, and I'm afraid I can't take you on a leisurely cultivation trip like before."

"Heh, what does it matter?" Wukong rubbed his fists together, eager to show these demons how powerful Sun Wukong is!

"You're really confident."

"That's right..."

"But you're still too weak. If you want to prove yourself, you should at least become a Great Sage first!"

"Hmph, Master, just you wait! This mere Great Sage is within my grasp."

"Stop bragging, start doing it."

"If it weren't for the fact that you're a descendant of my master..."

"How?"

"I definitely won't go with you!"

"Then you're leaving?"

"I won't leave! You're telling me to leave? I'm not leaving!"

The noisy commotion followed us all the way.

Rovi and Wukong embarked on their journey once again, but this time it was different from their previous leisurely pace.

This time, Wukong is here to hone his skills.

Rovi, however, was even more dedicated to slaying demons and monsters.

He doesn't believe in demons.

As the Heavenly Emperor, as the Azure Heaven worshipped by the people of Qin.

But if you see it,

Then he must be executed.

For he is God and man.

And because what he sought was always freedom and unrestrained living.

That is, demons.

It is a scourge to the world

Therefore, he killed them without hesitation.

And so on this day.

A monstrous demon transformed into a beautiful woman to devour the life essence of passersby, but suddenly a celestial sword descended from the sky, severing her head and causing her already dead skeleton to shatter instantly.

This moment.

A demon has taken over the mountain and become its king, oppressing the people in the surrounding area.

A sword falls, slaying ten thousand demons in a single strike.

In that instant, in that blink of an eye, as heaven and earth seemed to vanish, someone sang an evil song:

Riding the wind on a sword.

Exorcising demons across the land.

The faint, ethereal singing echoed across the wilderness.

The legendary swordsmanship is renowned, and demons from all directions retreat in fear.

No one dared to challenge its edge again.

However, during this process, Wukong was actually dissatisfied, after all...

"Has it been resolved?"

"Yes."

"My master didn't give me a chance to show my skills."

"You? You should just give up. You just left the Immortal Realm, and now you can't withstand the disturbances of the mortal world."

Wukong grinned, her pretty face, framed by her disheveled red hair, filled with displeasure. "I will definitely find a chance to make you acknowledge me."

"I'm looking forward to that day." Rovi paused, glanced at the petite red-haired girl beside him who was only as tall as his chest, and laughed, "But it seems to me that you are still tens of millions of years short of the Dao."

Rovi pointed to the top of his head, then pressed down on Wukong's messy red hair with his hand, making the girl grimace in displeasure, before finally saying, "You'll know once you try it yourself."

"So what if it's the sky? Sooner or later, I will be as powerful as the sky!"

"Hahaha. I'm waiting for that day!"

"Then you just wait and see, Master!"

"..."

Keep moving forward, keep going.

Wukong's incessant chatter never stopped throughout the journey.

Despite appearing carefree, Rovi's mood was far from good during this period, witnessing the turmoil in China.

Moreover, the closer one gets to Hangu Pass, the closer one gets to Xianyang.

The more he felt the power manifested there, the more he could sense it.

First Emperor...

It has become a very special existence.

Although he hadn't faced it directly yet, Rovi could already sense this point. The aura that the First Emperor, who ruled over all of China, exuded at this moment seemed so murky.

Its influence has spread throughout the entire Divine Land.

The resurgence of countless demons is merely a harbinger.

If left unchecked, this place will become a ' Singularity Point ' destined to be repaired.

Then, everything Rovi did before will be completely erased, and all traces of his existence on the Divine Land will disappear without a trace. What he has gained now will not be lost, but it will also become a rootless duckweed, and everything will turn to ashes.

As time goes by, although Rovi Weiru is powerful and has the ability to influence the entire planet, he does not yet possess the power to counteract the planet's repair mechanisms.

Because this is not a planet, but a planet called Earth, and the mechanism maintained by countless worlds across timelines, past and future.

This is not something that can be compared to the scale of a single planet.

This is something that might happen, and something that Rovi absolutely does not want to see.

He still cherishes the people he met in China and the bonds he formed with them.

I don't want to just give up like this.

Therefore, he must stop it.

We must 'save' this timeline and this point in time.

So they headed straight for the border.

The direction it faces is meaningless—

It is Xianyang.

As for the others, they crossed the lands of Six States, slaying demons and monsters along the way, and ahead of them, they had already crossed Hangu Pass.

Further ahead,

It is the former territory of the Qin state and the core area of the Qin Dynasty.

A ray of sunshine rises.

The Blazing Sun shines brightly, illuminating the vast land!
