Xu Long is eyeing Lin's bloodline and power, while Lin is also eyeing Xu Long.
Lin simply didn't know as much as Xu Long; she just instinctively felt that Xu Long could bring her many benefits.
"A love-hate relationship? Interesting."
Xu Long smiled and put the thought aside.
After being swallowed by the Great Qin Bronze Men, the Throne Yaojibo was squeezed into a ball.
Xu Long unleashed a Heaven-Splitting Divine Palm, instantly killing him.
[Defeat the Throne Yaojibo! Obtain the Throne treasure chest!]
Open the treasure chest; besides the Spirit Stone, there is only one item.
Name: Throne
Level: None
Type: Consumables/Other
Origin: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
Effect:
1. Upon use, it summons the S-rank Throne Yaojibo. This is a combat puppet that cannot repair itself after being damaged and cannot be revived after death.
Note: Yaojibo was once the vehicle of God, but now she belongs to you.
"Heh, I didn't expect to get a sex Wawa."
Xu Long shook his head and stuffed the Throne Yaojibo into the storage space.
The second phase of the main quest is to awaken the Dragon Emperor. Xu Long has now obtained the key item, and the next step is to find the Dragon Emperor's terracotta figurine.
Using Instant Transmission, they arrived at the Dragon Emperor's tomb and quickly located their target.
The Eye of Eternity was taken out, and the artifact immediately flew up and slowly disappeared into the chest of the terracotta figurine.
call!
A strong wind was blowing, and dark clouds filled the sky.
A terrifying aura emanated from the terracotta figurine, enveloping an area within a kilometer radius in a chilling atmosphere.
"Who... disturbed... my peaceful slumber...?"
A rough, hoarse voice rang out, sounding extremely harsh.
"I woke you up!"
Xu Long said, neither humble nor arrogant.
Why?
Although he was a little sluggish after just waking up, the Dragon Emperor was no fool and naturally understood that Xu Long wouldn't have woken him up for no reason.
The other party must have something in mind!
"I want to kill the banshee Zi Yuan, but she is too powerful; my strength is insufficient."
" Zi Yuan! Zi Yuan!"
Upon hearing the name of the female demon, the Dragon Emperor couldn't help but roar in anger.
Because of their misplaced trust in Zi Yuan, the Great Qin Empire was destroyed.
Millions of soldiers were turned into terracotta warriors, and even he was not spared.
The Dragon Emperor quickly regained his composure and asked Xu Long, "Why did you kill her?"
"Eternal life!"
"Immortality? Hahaha! Immortality!"
Upon hearing Xu Long's reply, the Dragon Emperor laughed three times, then said, "Very well, I will kill that banshee with you! But before that, we need to find the Pool of Eternal Life!"
[Chain Quest 2: Awaken the Dragon Emperor! Completed!]
[Chain Quest: 3. Find the Pool of Eternal Life!]
The Dragon Emperor's words reached his ears, and a notification sound immediately rang out.
Just as Xu Long had predicted, the mission was indeed to assist the Dragon Emperor.
Although it's unknown how things will ultimately turn out, the Main God never issues useless tasks. This Dragon Emperor will definitely play a crucial role and may even change the course of the battle.
Where is the Pool of Eternal Life? Do you know its location?
Xu Long asked.
" The Pool of Eternal Life lies deep within the Great Snow Mountain; I have been there before. Zi Yuan deceived me, saying that the Pool of Eternal Life contained a deadly poison and needed to be refined using a secret technique before it could be used. I naively believed her, never imagining I would be tricked by her."
The Dragon Emperor sighed and began to recount the events of two thousand years ago.
Back then, the Dragon Emperor suffered severe injuries from years of warfare, causing him to age very rapidly.
With the recommendation of General Guo Ming, whom he greatly valued, the Dragon Emperor came to believe them.
Years of searching have taken countless lives.
Finally, they found the Pool of Eternal Life deep within the Great Snow Mountain.
The Dragon Emperor was overjoyed and was about to jump in to bathe when he was stopped by the demoness Zi Yuan, who told him that the Pool of Eternal Life contained a large amount of poison and that it could only be purified using a secret method.
Therefore, the Dragon Emperor mobilized a vast amount of manpower and resources to build a palace for Zi Yuan to refine the Pool of Eternal Life.
Soldiers, craftsmen, farmers—countless people died because of this.
At that time, the Dragon Emperor was bewitched and only wanted to achieve immortality.
Ultimately, the traitor Guo Ming and the demoness Zi Yuan gained the power of immortality and used the soldiers, craftsmen, and farmers as blood sacrifices to curse the entire Great Qin Empire into terracotta warriors.
Only when he was on the verge of death did the Dragon Emperor realize his mistake.
His mistake was trusting Guo Ming too much, his mistake was fearing death, and his mistake was being arrogant.
Two thousand years have passed like a fleeting dream, and the Dragon Emperor has been reborn once more.
He wanted revenge; he wanted to kill the traitor Guo Ming and the demoness Zi Yuan.
"Before they notice, let's immediately go find the Pool of Eternal Life."
The Dragon Emperor spoke, and flames burst forth from the terracotta chariot beside him, bringing the four warhorses to life just like him.
As the vehicle used by the Dragon Emperor to personally lead his troops on campaigns, the carriage was of extremely fine quality, and the four horses were no ordinary creatures either.
Although it is still a terracotta figurine, Xu Long can clearly see the scales covering the horse's body and its sharp teeth.
These four horses were no ordinary creatures; they were all at least A-rank.
Law! Law! Law!
They jumped onto the carriage and set off immediately.
The carriage was incredibly fast, much faster than a supercar.
The wind howled in my ears, and the surrounding scenery rushed past.
As the carriage sped forward, the temperature dropped lower and lower, and snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
In about half a day, the two of them traveled thousands of kilometers and entered a snow-covered mountain range.
Two thousand years have passed, and the world has changed dramatically.
The fact that the Dragon Emperor could accurately locate the Great Snow Mountain clearly indicates that he possessed some special methods.
Don't you suspect I have ulterior motives?
Xu Long suddenly spoke up and asked.
As a monarch who ended the Warring States period, the Dragon Emperor's shrewdness was absolutely among the best.
With his most trusted general betraying him, he certainly wouldn't trust anyone else but himself.
"There's no doubt you have ulterior motives."
The Dragon Emperor glanced at him, then said, "So what? If you desire immortality, you are destined to be thwarted by the banshee Zi Yuan, and before you can kill her, you will need my power. Besides, I sensed a shared aura within you. Although I don't know who left it, my perception is never wrong."
"Hehe!"
Xu Long smiled, knowing this was a hidden benefit bestowed by the Main God.
The warlord he replaced was a descendant of Prince Ziying of Ziying, the grandson of the Dragon Emperor.
Even with the Dragon Emperor's temperament, he would inevitably be somewhat moved when he met his descendants two thousand years later.
Time flies, and the world changes; everything we once possessed has turned to ashes.
This faint trace of blood could bring him a little comfort.
"According to the family genealogy, my lineage is descended from Ziying."
Xu Long said casually.
" Ziying, Fusu's child."
The Dragon Emperor sighed, gazing ahead, lost in thought.
Fusu was the Dragon Emperor's favorite son, Ziying, as Fusu's offspring, was certainly also very favored.
Waking up two thousand years in the future, and being able to see one's own bloodline, one doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.
