Chapter 927 The hiding place of the First Emperor
Actually, these players guessed it correctly, and there is another big news later.
??It’s just that the big news hasn’t happened yet.
At 2 pm on March 3, there was a mountain called "Shenmulei" 135 kilometers due west of Chengdu.
??This mountain called "Shenmulei" used to be a scenic spot.
?However, due to the invasion of the Skrull planet, this scenic spot was suspended in June last year, and now it is very desolate and overgrown with weeds.
?Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang walked slowly in the mountains, carefully observing the plants and trees around them.
??The person walking in front of the two people was a white wolf that was larger than an adult bull. It was Xiaotian''s first pet, the Howling Moon Wolf Dabai.
Dabai walked in front, his nose constantly sniffing on the ground, very focused.
…
?Xiaotian also returned to Blue Star three days ago, and her return time was about 5 hours later than Su Yu and others.
??On Skrull, her visit to the Rhinoceros Tribe went very smoothly.
??The Rhinoceros are a reclusive, neutral race that has basically no interaction with the Skrulls, and their relationship cannot be said to be good or bad.
?During the visit to the Rhinoceros Clan, Xiaotian revealed some of the deal with the Bald Eagle Clan to them, and showed them several pieces of finished equipment sold to the Bald Eagle Clan.
After all, Xiaotian came here not just for a visit, but to sell equipment is her real purpose.
Seeing that these equipment can be freely stored in the body, this immediately aroused great interest in the Rhinoceros!
The Rhinoceros are huge in size, with ordinary members of the tribe weighing 3-5 tons. The reasons why they didn''t wear equipment before were basically the same as the dragons - first, they were not used to it; second, it was troublesome to carry the equipment.
??Now I see that the equipment made by the Blue Star humans can be freely stored in the body! No ethnic group can resist such temptation!
As a result, the leader of the Rhinoceros Clan placed a large order on the spot and gave Xiaotian a large amount of high-end materials as a deposit.
?That afternoon, Xiaotian successfully returned to Blue Star with a full collection of space rings.
…
After returning to Blue Star, Xiaotian had no intention of taking a rest.
She first handed over the high-end materials to Sledgehammer 80, and explained to the craftsmen in detail the requirements of the Rhinoceros Tribe for various aspects of equipment.
Then, she asked Su Yu to help her open the portal, and came to Rongcheng to join senior Wang Mang and continue to search for traces of the First Emperor.
…
Senior Wang Mang has also done a lot in recent days.
?Although Xiaotian was not there, he used his own experience and ancient documents to finally determine the place of "Shenmu Barrier".
As he walked, the old man explained to Xiaotian: "According to my speculation and preview of the hexagrams, the place ''Shenmule'' is most likely to be the hiding place of the First Emperor. I hope we can gain something here."
“I also hope that the First Emperor can be here.” Xiaotian nodded.
Then, she took out a shining golden dice from her backpack and held it carefully in her palm.
She introduced to senior Wang Mang: "This is the [Destiny Dice] that Su Yu gave me three days ago. It can accurately measure our current luck. Let''s use it and see how our luck is now."
“Okay, come on.” Senior Wang Mang did not object and stood sideways.
“Hu—” Xiaotian let out a breath.
She flicked the dice in her hand.
The dice drew a golden parabola in the air, and finally landed on the ground not far ahead.
??The fate dice rolled on the ground a few times and then stopped completely, with one side facing up.
Looking intently at the top of the dice, a smile immediately appeared on Xiaotian''s face: "It''s ''6''! Senior Wang Mang, it seems that our operation will go smoothly this time!"
"Is that so?" Senior Wang Mang didn''t know the meaning of the numbers, but he nodded and looked around: "If you say so, then the First Emperor should be in this mountain?"
As soon as Senior Wang Mang finished speaking, Dabai''s body of Xiaoyue Lang walking directly in front of them suddenly froze and became motionless.
Immediately afterwards, Dabai let out a hurried cry of "Ooooo", and then ran towards a mountain col on the left front as fast as possible.
In the past three days, seniors Xiaotian and Wang Mang have provided Dabai with a lot of "special training."
The so-called "special training" is for the spirit-shielding stone.
Senior Wang Mang had more than a dozen spiritual shielding stones, while the First Emperor had at least hundreds of thousands of spiritual shielding stones.
??The reason why the Blue Star monks could not find the First Emperor was because these hundreds of thousands of spiritual shielding stones completely blocked all the spiritual energy fluctuations produced by the First Emperor''s hiding place.
?Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang have spent the past three days letting Dabai, the Howling Moon Wolf, get familiar with the smell of the Spirit Shielding Stone, and then let Dabai use his sense of smell to find the Spirit Shielding Stone.
?As long as a large number of shielding stones can be found, it means that they have found the hiding place of the First Emperor.
Senior Xiaotian and Wang Mang were immediately overjoyed when they saw Dabai, the Howling Moon Wolf, suddenly start running wildly!
Dabai must have found the existence of the Spirit-shielding Stone!
?Although Dabai cannot speak, it continues to use its mental power to send messages to its owner Xiaotian, which means that it smells the smell of "Lingshishi", and there are many different kinds of "Lingshishi" smells.
?Xiaotian translated and conveyed this message to senior Wang Mang, and the two of them were even more happy.
?Combined with [Destiny Dice], they may have found the location of the First Emperor!
…
??Howling Moon Wolf Dabai led the two of them to run for three or four kilometers in a row, and finally stopped in a mountain col.
“Ouch~” After arriving at the place, Dabai looked around in confusion, looking a little confused.
?Through the sense of smell, it can smell the smell of many messy "spirit-shielding stones" around it. But looking forward, it didn''t see any "spirit-shielding stone". The scenery in front of it was no different from an ordinary valley.
What''s going on? Is there something wrong with its sense of smell?
?But fortunately, senior Wang Mang followed closely behind it.
Arrived at this place, senior Wang Mang could see at a glance that this place was unusual.
He said seriously to Xiaotian: "If my prediction is correct, this is an illusion, and what is covered by the illusion is the hiding place of the First Emperor.
?This location should be an entrance, but this may be just one of the entrances, and there may be other entrances around it. "
?Xiaotian asked: "Senior, what should we do?"
She also has some experience in exploring the secret realm on Skrull, because the secret realm is very similar to the dungeon in the game "Evolution".
??But she was powerless to deal with a place like "The First Emperor''s Hideout" that was dedicated to cultivating immortals. She could only listen to the opinions of senior Wang Mang.
"Leave this to me." Senior Wang Mang stepped forward slowly. When Xiaoyuelang Dabai saw him coming, he stepped aside and stood aside with a look, sticking out his tongue and looking at him.
Senior Wang Mang stood where Xiaoyuelang Dabai had just stood, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "%@%#..."
What he said was a series of ancient Chinese words that Xiaotian couldn''t understand at all.
?However, just based on speculation, Xiaotian felt that senior Wang Mang should be reporting his family status.
After senior Wang Mang finished speaking, he fired a line of light green psychic energy directly forward.
The spiritual energy whirled in the air and then disappeared. About 5 seconds later, a ripple-like fluctuation suddenly appeared in the space in front of the two people. Then, a pitch black door about three meters wide appeared in front of them.
Seeing the door that suddenly appeared, Xiaotian''s eyes immediately lit up!
It seems they have found the right place!
Senior Wang Mang''s expression did not change much.
?He walked forward calmly and knocked on the door more than a dozen times in a special rhythm.
?Finally, when he knocked on the 15th time, the two dark black doors opened with a "squeak~".
“Let’s go in.” Senior Wang Mang turned around and said to Xiaotian, and then took the lead to walk into the door.
“Okay...okay.” Xiaotian quickly put Howling Moon Wolf Dabai into the pet space, and then followed in the footsteps of senior Wang Mang.
After all, the person you are going to see is the First Emperor. Bringing a pet in may be considered disrespectful by the First Emperor. To be on the safe side, she put Xiaoyuelang Dabai away.
…
…
?Stepping into the dark double doors, the scenery in front of you changed and suddenly became bright!
??Now Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang are no longer in that very ordinary mountain col, but standing at the foot of a towering fairy mountain.
?This fairy mountain is very tall and straight, with its peak reaching straight into the sky.
The reason why it is called "Fairy Mountain" is mainly because the peak is covered with all kinds of ancient pines that are full of fairy spirit, and you can vaguely see the flying cranes. It is not an exaggeration to call it "Fairy Mountain".
Now in front of them is a zigzag staircase, along which you can go all the way up the mountain.
?Halfway up the mountain sits a magnificent hall. In front of the hall stands a huge black stone tablet.
?Other than that, there is almost nothing else that can be seen from their perspective.
"Let''s go up and have a look." Senior Wang Mang didn''t show any nervousness at all and climbed up the stairs.
?Xiaotian immediately followed him and looked around cautiously.
?Although this secret-like place looks quite safe, in tomb-robbery novels, ancient emperors’ tombs often hide some hidden weapons to deal with future tomb robbers, so it’s better to be careful.
…
However, Xiaotian''s vigilance was obviously overly worrying.
They walked all the way up and came to the mountainside hall, under the pitch black stone tablet.
?Xiaotian raised his head and looked at this huge dark stone tablet, which was 5 meters wide and more than ten meters high. It was filled with small characters the size of a fingernail filled with gold paint.
The font used for these small characters is official script, so Xiao Tianda can understand most of them. Even if he can''t understand, he can guess it based on the context.
Senior Wang Mang certainly feels less stressed when reading these words.
?Just like that, the two people stood in front of the stone tablet and patiently read the words on it.
…
Unknowingly, half an hour passed.
Old senior Wang Mang read the words on the stone tablet before Xiaotian, touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
?Xiaotian also barely finished reading the text description on the tablet.
After reading it, she immediately clarified many questions. For example, "Where is the First Emperor?", "Why did the First Emperor build a hiding place here?", "Why did the First Emperor want to confiscate all the ''shielding stones'' in the world?" and so on.
To answer this question, we have to start with the unification of the six kingdoms by the First Emperor.
More than 2,300 years ago, the First Emperor successively defeated the vassal states of Yan, Qi, Chu, Zhao, Wei, and Han, unified the country, ended a century of separatist wars, and achieved the throne.
?His own strength also continued to accumulate in the process of unifying Liuhe, and finally broke through to the peak of Mahayana (the peak of the divine level) and became one of the strongest beings in Blue Star.
But after unifying the country, the First Emperor suddenly lost his goal.
The country is unified and there are almost no enemies within the four seas.
To the southeast of the dynasty was the vast ocean, and to the northwest was a barren land with no value for occupation. Even if it was valuable, it could not be occupied with the manpower at that time.
As for strength, reaching the pinnacle of Mahayana is already the upper limit of Blue Star. If you want to break through to the planetary level, all the resources of Blue Star combined are far from enough, and it is simply impossible.
As for letting descendants continue to rule the country for tens of thousands of years? Sorry, he''s not interested.
As a result, the First Emperor fell into confusion.
But in the fifth year of his reign, one day he woke up from his dream and suddenly came up with a brilliant idea - the world is so big, he wanted to see it!
?Of course, this world does not refer to the Blue Star, but the vast and boundless universe outside.
?There are 100 billion planets in the Milky Way alone, and there are even more than one trillion stars in the Galactic Galaxy next door!
?Such a vast world must be so colorful!
The First Emperor had a strong idea of ??"wanting to go out and have a look".
But soon a problem arose - he couldn''t get out.
?Di Xin, King of Shang Zhou, once left Blue Star, but he met an interstellar traveler by chance, and with the help of that interstellar traveler, he successfully left.
The First Emperor did not meet any interstellar travelers. To be honest, he had never seen any aliens.
Without the help of aliens, his own strength is simply not enough to leave the solar system.
As a result, the First Emperor fell into depression.
With no choice but to wait, he hoped that aliens would visit Blue Star again and take him away.
This period is 32 years.
During these 32 years, the First Emperor had been looking forward to the arrival of alien visitors, but unfortunately, he did not even see the alien hair.
While waiting for a long time, his patience was completely exhausted.
After repeated thinking, he decided not to wait foolishly for the aliens, but to adopt a stupid method.
?This method is - time travel!
He wants to travel to the future, to an era when Blue Star has integrated with the civilization of the universe.
According to his estimate, it would take at least 100,000 years for Blue Star humans to develop to the point of interstellar communication. (Dinosaurs ruled Blue Star for about 100 million years. 100,000 years is really not that long.)
However, the lifespan of a peak god-level expert is only 3,000 years at most, and he will definitely not survive that time in a normal life.
?So, he built this hiding place and sealed his body. Every cell and molecule in his body stopped moving under the restraint of spiritual energy and entered a state of complete dormancy.
?After entering a complete dormant state, his lifespan will be greatly increased. It is no problem to live for 100,000 years or even a million years.
This is also called “traveling”.
?This is a bit like some wealthy people in modern times who freeze their entire bodies in the hope that one day they will be thawed and resurrected.
With this stupid method, the First Emperor could successfully "travel" to the future world, and then use the technology of the future world to travel to the universe.
