"Was this Imperial Preceptor's residence built for me?"
The Yue Shen stood dumbfounded in front of the gate of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. She had previously guessed the true owner of the mansion and even connected it to the control of the suddenly appearing Undead Legion.
But today, Zhao Gao, a close attendant of the King of Qin, came to announce that this palace of the Grand Preceptor was built for her, the Yue Shen, which shocked her greatly.
It should be noted that this Grand Preceptor's residence was enormous, even encompassing the original residence of Lü Buwei, and its luxury was in no way inferior to that of the Qin King's Palace.
Although she was very confident in her family's Yin-Yang School, she seemed somewhat unworthy of such treatment.
So what were the King of Qin's true intentions?
Thinking of this, the Yue Shen couldn't help but look warily at Zhao Gao beside her.
"Right Grand Preceptor, His Majesty has sent me with a message: I am somewhat aware of the Yin-Yang School's intentions. If you want that item, you must exchange it for the entire legacy of the Yin-Yang School —remember, the entire legacy!"
Zhao Gao said with a smile.
Although it's unclear what the king meant by those words, they were certainly not simple. The fact that the king allowed him access to such top secrets signifies absolute trust, which is a great thing!
In addition, the king also bestowed upon him a peerless martial arts technique, a peerless martial arts technique that was extremely suitable for him.
Recalling the wonders of the Sunflower Manual in his mind, Zhao Gao was so excited he almost wet himself.
That divine skill is simply too powerful!
"I will convey this message to Lord Eastern Emperor. Your Majesty, please await good news!"
The Yue Shen's pupils constricted sharply, and she almost couldn't resist striking out to kill Zhao Gao.
This news was truly terrifying. Even she herself was not entirely clear about the ultimate goal of the Yin-Yang School. Only Eastern Emperor Donghuang knew everything, and what she knew was that all the secrets were hidden in seven mysterious bronze boxes.
The seven mysterious bronze boxes are each in the possession of one of the seven current rulers. The Yin-Yang School only possesses the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, which was inherited from the Great Zhou, and it has been lost and has not been found to this day.
But now the King of Qin actually claims to know the Yin-Yang School's purpose and is even willing to exchange it for the bronze box. This is quite terrifying and has far exceeded the limits of what he can handle.
The only course of action now is to inform Lord Eastern Emperor of this information as soon as possible and wait for his decision.
Meanwhile, in the main hall of the Qin Palace, Ying Zheng summoned the Corpse-Driving Demon, who had been leading a three-thousand -Undead Legion to guard the palace for the past six months.
"My dear minister, you have been with me back to the palace for half a year now, and have saved me from danger several times, but I have not given you any reward. Do you have any resentment?"
Seated on his throne, Ying Zheng looked expressionlessly at the Corpse-Driving Demon kneeling on one knee below. He truly admired this talent.
The other party has been diligent and hardworking for the past six months, and it's time to reward them.
"Your Majesty, I have harbored absolutely no resentment in the past six months!"
As a ruthless and Ruthless man, the Corpse-Driving Demon gave an extremely concise response, and indeed, he had not harbored any resentment over the past six months.
For the past six months, he had focused all his energy on the fusion and cultivation of the Ksitigarbha Realm Divine Power and witchcraft, wishing he could split his head in two to use it. How could he have any mind to think about anything else!
Ying Zheng, seated on his throne, was quite satisfied with this response. The other party said "no," not "dare not." "Dare not" meant that there was indeed resentment, but he simply didn't dare to express it. "No" was different.
Furthermore, according to the intelligence he possessed, this subordinate had indeed shown no resentment whatsoever in the past six months. He was practically a cultivation Kuangren, staying home all day and not even bothering to pay attention to his companions Yan Lingji and Wushuang Gui.
What kind of resentment could a shut-in possibly have!
"Our Great Qin Dynasty is fair in its rewards and punishments. My dear minister has rendered great service and deserves a generous reward!"
As he spoke, Brother Zheng waved his hand, and Zhao Gao, who was beside him, very perceptively carried a long brocade box that exuded a chilling aura and slowly walked to the Corpse-Driving Demon and opened it.
Instantly, a cold current swept through the entire Qin King's Palace, as if one were in the dead of winter, and even the ground was faintly covered with frost.
Inside the brocade box was a longsword, a longsword that combined domineering Haki with elegance.
The moment the Corpse-Driving Demon saw the longsword, its eyes were fixed on it, and the Ksitigarbha Realm Divine Power within its body surged involuntarily, its entire body revealing a desire for that magnificent longsword.
It's mine, and I'll fight anyone who tries to take it from Laozi!
Instantly, the Corpse-Driving Demon's lifeless eyes filled with bloodshot veins, revealing an undisguised possessiveness towards the ornate longsword.
"This sword is named Frostmourne. It was obtained by our Great Qin in its early years in battle against Arthas, a prince of a kingdom in the Western Regions who held the title of Lich King, and whose Scourge Legion..."
Ying Zheng was speaking with a straight face, and it goes without saying that this was Professor Wang Hao's rhetoric.
Honestly, after hearing about the Corpse-Driving Demon's plight and that Undead Legion, Wang Hao was completely shocked and immediately thought of Arthas, the Lich King from World of Warcraft.
The enemy's Undead Legion is so similar to the Scourge Legion in Warcraft!
Moreover, with the help of the Undead Legion and the Ksitigarbha Realm Divine Power, the Corpse-Driving Demon can also indirectly control the power of ice, making him practically a martial arts version of the Lich King!
Since he is the Lich King, he naturally needs the matching Devil Sword Frostmourne.
So he plundered the Great Qin Dynasty's treasury, found the corresponding precious materials, and used them to create a Frostmourne.
Although this Frostmourne is a knock-off, he is confident that its power is no less than the original, especially since it is perfectly suited to the Ksitigarbha Realm Divine Power of the Corpse-Driving Demon.
Of course, he didn't just copy the design of Frostmourne; he also added some new elements to make it more Haki and magnificent. Even Ying Zheng couldn't help but want to possess it.
"Thank you for your gracious gift, Your Majesty!"
The Corpse-Driving Demon, regaining his senses, hurriedly expressed his gratitude, saying without hesitation that he would repay this favor with his life!
"This is what you deserve! I hope you will make many contributions to our Great Qin in the future. There is also a set of Lich King armor and his mount, Invincible, waiting for you in my treasury!"
Ying Zheng gentle reassurance and then threw out a bait.
That's right. Since Wang Hao has copied Frostmourne, he has naturally also copied the Lich King's armor, and has made significant modifications and optimizations, especially in terms of design.
The design of the Helm of Domination hasn't changed much, but the armor itself has become incredibly gorgeous, incorporating design elements from Saint Cloth —it's absolutely stunning!
When Ying Zheng saw that set of armor, he was quite impressed and subtly indicated on the spot that he wanted Wang Hao to make him a set as well, and that it should be even more magnificent.
All of this was prepared for the Corpse-Driving Demon; clearly, they intended to cultivate this person as a key figure.
"Your Majesty, I will certainly not fail your expectations!"
The excited Corpse-Driving Demon immediately declared that he would do everything in his power to achieve great feats so that he could collect the Lich King set as soon as possible.
"After you have completed the handover with the newly formed Imperial Guard, report to General Wang Jian's command in three days. He will arrange everything."
Ying Zheng planned to train the Corpse -Corpse-Driving Demon to become a commander of a large army, otherwise it would be a waste of this Undead Legion.
It should be noted that although the Corpse-Driving Demon can only barely control this Undead Legion of three thousand people at present, that is mainly because its own cultivation level is not high. Once its cultivation level improves, especially after the Ksitigarbha Realm Divine Power becomes stronger, it will definitely be able to control a larger and more powerful Undead Legion.
At that time, extremely strong command abilities will be needed to make a difference, and Wang Jian is currently the strongest army commander in their Great Qin. Having the Corpse-Driving Demon follow him will definitely allow him to learn a lot.
It's even possible that, by leveraging the cheat-like nature of the Undead Legion, they could cultivate another military genius for the Great Qin.
"My lord, I obey the order!"
The Corpse-Driving Demon bowed and accepted the order, while pondering who he should learn swordsmanship from later.
With the Frostmourne sword Frostmourne in hand, it would be a great waste not to learn a sword technique from it.
However, this divine sword is truly heavy, weighing at least tens of thousands of kilograms. If it weren't for the fact that he had been diligently cultivating the Ksitigarbha Realm Divine Power over the past six months, and had also strengthened his body considerably, it would have been very difficult to lift it.
It seems that to truly master its wielding, he needs to further improve his physical abilities. Perhaps he could try Wushuang Gui Gui's training methods, which, though somewhat cruel, are worth the risk for the sake of this Frostmourne.
What the Corpse-Driving Demon didn't know was that the Frostmourne itself weighed 100 million tons. Wang Hao even went to the seabed specifically to find an iron ore deposit and used Magnetic Field Power to mine it, eventually forging the Frostmourne, its matching armor, and the Invincible mechanical warhorse.
However, considering the Corpse-Driving Demon's small size, its weight was sealed away. It will be gradually Xie Feng as the Corpse-Driving Demon becomes stronger in the future.
Therefore, Wang Hao really put in a lot of effort to deal with this Corpse-Driving Demon!
However, Wang Hao soon regretted it.
"Here is the divine sword you requested!"
Returning to the Qin Palace weary from his journey, Wang Hao tossed the fiery red longsword he had just forged to Yan Lingji, that woman.
I don't know if it was because he was provoked by that Frostmourne Demon's Corpse-Driving Demon, but this woman kept pestering him to have a divine sword too. Her charming appearance almost made his blood boil and turn him into a werewolf. He barely managed to restrain himself.
Left with no other choice, he had to go out and find a volcano, extract the magma containing immense terrestrial fire power, compress it to the extreme, and finally forge it into this weapon Fire's Delight.
Of course, the name is taken from the divine weapon in World of Warcraft, while the design is based on the Aestus Estus, the longsword of Nero, the Red Saber in Fate/stay night, which is a divine sword that twists like flames.
"Thank you, sir!"
Upon receiving the Fire's Delight, Yan Lingji was overjoyed and couldn't resist leaning over to give Wang Hao a sweet kiss on the cheek.
"This is the Untamed Blade of the Wushuang Gui. Take it back to him; I've sealed the accompanying sword technique within it."
Wang Hao casually took out a giant sword that was three zhang long from his storage space. This was specially prepared for that guy, Wushuang Gui.
Whether it was a genetic mutation or the Vajra Realm Divine Power, that guy's already enormous body underwent a second growth spurt, and now he has grown to be two zhang tall, or five meters.
Although the growth trend has slowed recently, it is still continuing.
Based on this trend, that guy will grow to at least three zhang tall, at which point this the Untamed Blade will be just right for him.
