Corpse Liberation Immortal

The continuous rain fell on the city's Japan. Order had been re-established here, Bai Mo only spent one night adjusting his body to its best condition. The rest of the time was spent dealing with the things sent by the Qin Shi Huang.

"Whether it's Lostbelt or Pan-Human History, the Qin Shi Huang was a man of great courage. How should I put it, Master, is it overconfidence or a smokescreen that you dare to tell us information so casually?"

Xu Fu stuffed a steamed bun into his mouth, looking at the pile of intelligence in his hand. This was mostly intelligence from the Realm of Immortals, and even included some technologies far beyond imagination. And most of this was research about the Qin Shi Huang himself.

This struck Xu Fu as somewhat absurd; generally, it was impossible for an enemy to do something like revealing their trump card. There was likely some misleading information involved, or it was completely unreliable.

"Perhaps both."

Bai Mo's return puzzled Xu Fu. As he put away the intelligence report, he explained, "This might not be false, but since he mentioned three days, he might still be preparing and needs those three days to make arrangements."

"Huh? So we've been tricked? I knew it! You can't even trust the emperor's words! What gentleman's agreement? We should have just..."

"There's nothing wrong with this agreement. Think about it, if he wanted to maximize his profits, when would be the best time to act? I was in a very difficult situation at the time, and there are quite a few experts at Mount Li."

Bai Mo's words startled Xu Fu. She belatedly realized what he meant and replied, her voice trembling slightly.

"Was it when you were dealing with that bunch of Giant Spirit, boss? Yes... If he had made his move then, not only would he have been able to catch you at your weakest moment, boss, but even Qin Hong wouldn't have been able to escape, right?"

But he's not a god; how could he possibly foresee everything?

"But he's been observing all along, and you should know very well what tactics Qin excels at, right? He would never let such an opportunity slip by."

Hearing Bai Mo's words, Xu Fu nodded in deep agreement. Bai Mo glanced at the information one last time, shook his head, and added:

"Besides, it's not entirely accurate to say he's not a god; this guy might actually have become an immortal by now."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fu felt a chill run down her spine. She immediately squatted down, covered her head with her hands, and looked like she was about to cry.

"Damn it, why is the heavens so biased towards this guy! The Qin Shi Huang was terrifying enough as a human, but now that he's an immortal, he's even more terrifying! Boss, can we not go to Xianyang tomorrow? I really don't want to see that guy again; just thinking about him gives me nightmares."

"Running away won't solve anything. Although I'd love for you to stay here and rest, unfortunately, you might be the key to defeating the Qin Shi Huang this time."

"Well?"

Looking into Xu Fu's clear eyes, Bai Mo nodded, seemingly finding it hard to accept reality. She even pointed to herself, her expression as if to say:

Am I really going to confront that Qin Shi Huang who became an immortal?

A day later, in Xianyang, Bai Mo, Ritsuka, and the others slowly walked into the Epang Palace. This time, the head guard was still standing at the entrance. Looking at the group, this old man, who should have been their enemy, smiled at them instead.

"It's in the same room as before. I won't lead the way. If anyone doesn't want to get involved, please follow me."

Upon hearing this, no one left, which surprised the head guard. Qin Liangyu hesitated, her gaze shifting between the two sides, while Hinako Akuta clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction.

"I've worked for him for so many years, and now that Lord Xiang Yu isn't around, I don't want to go back to that room with the cobwebs. Compared to that guy, Chaldea is a pretty conscientious company; at least I, his junior, am well-fed and healthy."

"I'm not fat, senior!"

As Ritsuka spoke, she pinched her stomach. There wasn't an ounce of fat on it. "I've been through Leonidas Sparta training, there's no way I could have any fat on me!"

However, upon pinching, a tiny bit of fat did appear, and Ritsuka's expression instantly turned terrible.

Qin Liangyu, standing to the side, seemed somewhat puzzled. She stepped forward and said, "I remain loyal to His Majesty's rule, but... there are some things I want to witness personally. I'm not sure if my answer will change after this, but perhaps it's better not to sit in the audience."

Seeing this, the captain of the guard was not angry at all; he even smiled.

"Is that so? If His Majesty could witness this scene, he would surely be pleased. In that case, I will go with General Han Xin to watch the battle."

"Huh? Can't I participate?"

"No, this is His Majesty's order. If you wish, you can side with Mr. Bai Mo."

"Let's forget about it. No matter how good the team is, it's meaningless if they don't follow orders."

Walking past those long display cases again, no matter how many times I come, I am always drawn to these magnificent items. Any one of these works of art would be worthy of being placed in the center of the most prestigious collectors' showcases, but here, they are displayed as densely as a honeycomb.

The door was reopened, and Li Shuwen and Han Xin were already seated below, looking quite relaxed. They sat on a bamboo chair, a pot of tea and a handful of melon seeds on the table. Only these two, who had followed the Qin Shi Huang all the way to the present day, had such an honor.

"You're here."

In the center of the room was a silver-white chair, its shape quite peculiar, resembling mountains, rivers, and drifting clouds. And upon this chair sat a figure in blue and white.

His sleeves were like wings, his hair like clouds, and a long, silver-white sword stood before him. His body had transcended the thoughts and understanding of normal humans.

Upon seeing the Qin Shi Huang, Xu Fu couldn't help but exhale a deep breath.

The Corpse Liberation Immortal, by using a vessel and abandoning his physical form, transforms himself into an immortal. Although I already knew from intelligence that this guy had become an immortal, it was still somewhat hard to accept when I actually saw it.

"You actually succeeded..."

Hinako Akuta couldn't help but marvel at how, with the help of her own data, she had actually accomplished this goal for him. At this moment, the boundaries of life no longer existed, and even the shackles of the Primordial Spirit had vanished.

"Yes, without your help, we probably wouldn't have gotten this far."

The Qin Shi Huang replied, Bai Mo sensed the body; the soul perception given to him by Yog -Sothoth was accurate. Although his power had not reached the Ultimate level, the problem of the shackles on his Primordial Spirit had been resolved.

The rest can be accumulated gradually over time.

It's unclear whether the energy in this Lostbelt is sufficient for it to reach that level.

"It's quite remarkable; I never expected it could actually solve the problem of the Primordial Spirit."

"Indeed. Since the human body cannot withstand the Primordial Spirit, then we only need to surpass humanity. Although I would like to experiment with it further, never mind, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
