Chapter 59 Divine Artifact - Yellow Dragon Seal
Chapter 59 Divine Artifact - Yellow Dragon Seal
The streets were empty and quiet.
Dou Changsheng's buttocks were sticking up high, his forehead touching the cold ground.
I felt extremely weak all over. I tried to get up several times, but each time I failed. I could only lift my head 20 or 30 centimeters before it fell heavily back down.
Dou Changsheng's head throbbed with pain, and he was in a sorry state. There must be a martial arts expert constantly toying with him.
After all, our old man Dou isn't a spineless coward.
A seven-foot-tall, upright man, with an iron will, even the mighty Chu with its million armored soldiers didn't give him a second thought, and he still rebelled against them.
Everyone would give a thumbs up and praise our old man for his tough character.
The world was silent; the wind stopped and all sound vanished.
Time seemed to stand still, and after an unknown amount of time, a clear, cold voice slowly rang out: "I have seen more than one King of Yue, but I have never seen a King of Yue like you before."
You've opened my eyes to a whole new world.
"I originally thought that there were very few things in the world that could move me, but I never expected that something would happen in this remote place."
"There's no need to say anything more. With your integrity, it's pointless to say anything."
"No wonder you've made such a big splash in less than a month. At first I didn't understand, but now I accept it. Even a thousand or eight hundred years from now, you will still have a place in my memory."
"No, I'm afraid I'll never forget this scene for the rest of my life."
"Alright, let's get down to business."
"You are waiting for this imperial edict from the Sun and Moon Demon Court to gather dragon energy with the power of the Demon Court. This is naturally not wrong. After all, the Demon Court is the legitimate one. Even if there are some hidden dangers, such as the Demon Court being able to use this to interfere with you, you have risen to power too quickly and have no other choice. The benefits outweigh the disadvantages, so it is naturally acceptable."
Dou Changsheng got up and said in a deep voice, "What the senior said is right. If given a choice, who would want to create unnecessary trouble?"
"There is really no other choice but to rely on the power of the Demon Court and to draw upon the remaining dragon energy of the Great Yue. Only in this way can I successfully gather dragon energy, truly transform into a hidden dragon, and embark on the path of fighting for the dragon."
"With the dragon's energy, the Imperial Weapon, the Sword of Goujian, King of Yue, was able to truly revive, starting from the ninth rank and eventually allowing me to leap up and possess the combat power of the middle third rank."
"Now the Black Ice Platform has poisoned me, and the Sun and Moon Demon Court has also poisoned me. Everyone is trying to harm me because I am too weak and have no power to protect myself. So even if there are hidden dangers, I must have the power to resist."
A cold voice rang out: "No need to say so much, I don't want to hear it."
"You are neither innocent nor pitiful."
"Your current situation is entirely due to your own choices."
"To become an extraordinary person, one must do extraordinary things. To save decades or even centuries of time, how can one not take risks?"
"Whether your choice of Dai Viet was a coincidence or intentional, it doesn't matter. You've come this far, and it's natural that you're connected with Dai Viet."
"Through countless rivers and mountains, you have barely passed the first hurdle."
"The difficulties and dangers ahead are still unknown. Da Yue has been destroyed, but the royal family still exists. They are hiding now only because it is too dangerous. If you use Da Yue to achieve your goals, hidden dangers will arise and trouble will come in the future."
"And so on, too numerous to count."
"When I was young, I traveled through the underworld. A great river blocked my way, which displeased me. I cut the river in half with my sword and unintentionally killed a yellow dragon."
"Afterwards, people kept coming to seek revenge. After several battles, I got fed up with it. In the end, I decided to go all the way and wiped out all of Huanglong's relatives. Only then did I finally have some peace and quiet."
"This old yellow dragon has lost most of its dragon heart power over the years."
"The remaining power is not bad. After all, it was once a top-grade item. After I specially refined it, it has been transformed into a seal."
"This item can contain dragon energy. As long as you keep it with you, it will operate smoothly and will not affect your martial arts cultivation. Once your martial arts catch up, you can absorb the dragon energy within it without any negative impact on you."
"If things go well in the future, we can reforge the seal and upgrade it into an imperial weapon without much difficulty."
It is entirely golden, pure and clear, like it was cast from glass. A yellow dragon coils around it, lifelike, as if it is about to take off and rise into the clouds at any moment.
Dou Changsheng accepted it respectfully with both hands. This was a treasure, a genuine divine artifact.
Made from the remains of a top-tier expert, its power is far more than the other party claimed. The dragon energy it contains is only a part of it. It's just that Dou Changsheng's strength is low. If he had a mid-tier expert, he could unleash the power of a top-tier expert with the help of the divine artifact.
Of course, it is tempered with dragon energy and gradually transforms into an imperial weapon. In the future, it can be activated by dragon energy, which greatly reduces the difficulty of using it.
That's quite a generous gesture.
The Dai Viet brand really works.
It's no wonder he called himself King of Yue right from the start. Look at him, if he had called himself King of Chen, he wouldn't have a single thing left.
But are you content?
That definitely won't work.
Finally, a big boss came along.
You can't skimp on the deals; even a second of hesitation is disrespectful to your boss.
After carefully examining the Yellow Dragon Seal, Dou Changsheng found it to be smaller than the county seal, appearing quite petite. He slightly raised his hand, brought it to his lips, and swallowed it whole.
Dou Changsheng patted his throat, feeling something stuck in it. Finally, relying on his martial artist's physique, he managed to swallow it down. This would have been impossible for an ordinary person, but martial artists are tough and resilient.
The Yellow Dragon Seal is ultimately an external object, and carrying it around carries the risk of it being stolen. In the end, my strength is too weak, and there are too many ambitious people around me. My cultivation is also subject to being spied on, making it easy to expose the Yellow Dragon Seal and become a target for them.
It's better to keep it inside the body, which is something you can carry with you. Even if you're a cultivator, outsiders wouldn't even think of it. As for my good older brother, Fierce Tiger, there's no need to worry about him now. The boss has already arranged everything, after all, this is a private matter.
Silence fell, and the atmosphere grew heavy once again.
Some people are forced into this situation by others.
It will constantly shatter your worldview.
This act of swallowing the imperial seal is truly unexpected.
Some remained silent, while others did not speak. Dou Changsheng then spoke again: "Senior."
"This junior humbly requests your assistance."
"I don't expect you to take any risks, just lend a hand occasionally. If you really encounter danger, please leave first."
A cool voice rang out: "No need for tricks. I can tell you're trying to make it difficult for me to refuse your next request after I refuse."
"You have repeatedly defied our expectations; you can be considered a prodigy."
"I'll give you one last push. Before you break out of Xiangzhou, no one of the top three ranks will make a move."
"As for what the future holds, you'd better take care of yourself."
After the sound was heard, the person had already disappeared.
Dou Changsheng slowly got up, brushing the dust off his clothes. The big boss didn't say it explicitly, but Dou Changsheng understood that he had to be filial to her, treat her as his master, and take care of her in her old age and see her off in her final days.
It's only natural for a master to protect his disciples from the wind and rain before he gets old!
