"Two thousand two hundred years, huh? Hmph, hmph hmph... Ying Zheng, you are so cruel!"
Li Mu let out a low roar of anger, but he quickly got his emotions under control. After all, he was one of the four great generals of the Warring States Period, adept at regulating his emotions.
You then continued, "The current dynasties are quite different from those more than two thousand years ago, and moreover, the Land of Huaxia has been unified. We have settled on the na Huaxia for our nation..."
Following that, you briefly described to Li Mu the modern political landscape and the living conditions of the people.
After listening, Li Mu pondered for a good while before heaving a light sigh, "Enough, let it be... Young friend, I saw you observing the Jiu Xianmin earlier. Is that your purpose for this trip?"
"Yes!"
You nodded unreservedly.
"Young friend, you are bold and forthright, truly spirited!"
Li Mu laughed heartily, his laughter was deafening and emanated from inside his brain. Everyone around him was sowhat pained, holding their heads and crouching on the ground.
"Since you wish to have the Jiu Xianmin, I can help you with that. However, after you take the Jiu Xianmin, I hope you can do a favor."
"Please speak, General Li!" Hearing that Li Mu was offering help, you almost jumped up with excitent.
"The Jiu Xianmin is the source of aura for the Zero Boundary. Once it is taken, the Zero Boundary will collapse. I hope that before this happens, you will cremate my wife and together and bring our ashes back to Bo Ren, burying them among the green mountains and waters."
Another bombshell piece of information!
Li Mu and Ah-Fang were actually spouses!
No wonder Ying Zheng sent people to fetch Ah-Fang, only to bring back a corpse!
"I will surely see to it!"
Listening to your promise, Li Mu slowly said, "The Jiu Xianmin is an object of utmost rigidity and yang, said to be the Golden Core of the Cunwu."
The Cunwu, also known as the Three-legged Golden Crow, is a mythical bird said to reside in the sun. If the Jiu Xianmin is its Golden Core, then it’s easy to understand why the Jiu Xianmin is so powerful.
"In this world, there are very few divine objects capable of containing the Jiu Xianmin. However, I happen to have a magical artifact of the Celestial Machine Path in my possession, the Profound Dark Gourd." As he was speaking, a sharp object shot straight towards you!
Zhao’er’s reflexes were even quicker than yours. She appeared in front of you in a flash and casually caught the sharp object. When you looked carefully, it turned out to be a black gourd about the size of a thumb!
"Since you are a follower of Taoism, I will gift this gourd to you, hoping you can make full use of it!"
You took the black gourd handed over by Zhao’er and bowed deeply to Li Mu.
"Do you know how to summon the Samadhi True Fire?"
When Li Mu asked this, you knew he was preparing for his own cremation.
Although reluctant, you also knew that all this had been destined from the start.
Li Mu and Ah-Fang had been imprisoned by the First Emperor in the Ah-Fang Palace. Though they were less than a few ters apart, the existence of that crystal coffin prevented their souls from eting, causing them two thousand years of futile suffering.
Taking a deep breath, you said in a deep voice, "General Li, I do not know the Samadhi True Fire, but I can use a more purified form of Original True Qi to disintegrate your bodies without harming your souls."
"Original True Qi?" Li Mu was startled, then he laughed loudly, "Good! Good! I have not misjudged you, ha ha ha..."
That laugh contained untold bitterness and sorrow. Now finally able to find release, who knows whether Li Mu’s heart was filled with joy or sadness.
"Young friend, let’s begin!"
"Understood!"
Nodding solemnly, you knew that this ti you were personally seeing off the only idol you ever had in your life.
Never had you imagined that your heart could be so calm, so devoid of ripples.
At that mont, you seed to have grasped sothing, yet at the sa ti, like a fool, you were completely clueless and unaware. Your eyes simply started to rotate the Sen Luo Eye within your pupils, which then scattered a brilliant and intense rainbow light.
Original True Qi is the highest and purest essence between heaven and earth, capable of burning and purifying all matter.
The entire hall was enveloped in a dazzling light show, and Sun Lin and others watched in stunned amazent, not even daring to blink, terrified they’d miss the most spectacular scene of their lives.
When the brilliance subsided, the beautiful fluorescent lights turned into twinkling stars spiraling in the air.
"Who has a container?" you asked, turning to the people beside you.
After pondering for a mont, Tu Zhiqing took off his backpack, retrieved a large thermos, and handed it to you.
You opened the thermos and couldn’t help but show a look of surprise. "What’s this?"
"Green bean soup."
You rubbed your forehead, poured the green bean soup directly onto the steps beside you, then used the Wind curse and Water Spell to clean the inside. With a wave of your hand, the gorgeous fluorescent lights swirling in the great hall whooshed into the large thermos.
As you closed the lid, a male and female voice echoed in your mind, "Thank you..."
You pinched your nose, trying hard not to let your tears fall, then slightly lifted your head, looking up at the Jiu Xianmin above, and said to everyone, "We’re leaving now!"
"Hey, wait a minute!"
Zi Qian quickly called out.
"What’s up?" you turned to look at Zi Qian.
He pointed down towards Palace City. "Ju Hua and the others are still down there."
"Oh, I almost forgot about them."
"Damn it, brother, with that one ’forgot,’ you’re risking three lives here." Zhang Dadong, who had just co around, glared at you fiercely.
"Sao Rui, Sao Rui, too excited."
Ten minutes later, all of you stood at the edge of Ah-Fang Palace.
Zhang Dadong turned to you and asked, "Hey, Brother Li, what do we do now?"
"Jump down."
"What the heck!?"
As you spoke, your face bead with a smile as radiant as the sunshine above. "Brother is in a good mood today. I’ll let you guys experience what it’s like to really fly!"
With that, ten Brown talisman papers flew out of your pocket, circling above each person’s head.
"Wind curse, Feather Garnt."
A gentle light cascaded down from above, and in an instant, everyone felt as light as a swallow, as if with a re leap, they could fly to the moon and have a rendezvous with Chang’e.
You glanced left and right, noticing that everyone was fascinated by this unprecedented sensation.
And at that mont, you smiled slightly and took the lead, leaping down from a hundred ters high.
"Holy crap! Brother Li, what are you doi... Wow! We’re flying! Ah! Ah!!!"
Zhang Dadong, chattering too much, got a kick from Zhao’er behind him, launching him straight out and towards the platform where Ju Hua and others were.
"Help!!!"
Zhang Dadong’s pig-slaughtering scream was clear and piercing, echoing all around, "I can’t brake!"
At this mont, you just happened to fly past him, laughing, "No worries, use your face to brake."
