First Lord of Earth

"Hey, a set of jade-quality rare items?"

Xia Tian's heart beat fiercely, and he even beamed with joy.

Although, as a lord, I have obtained information from the Will of the Earth that there are some rare treasures in the "Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang".

However, finding a rare item rated "Jade White" so easily still makes Xia Tian feel a little unbelievable!

After all, although there are a lot of rare objects in his own territory, the only jade-quality rare objects are the "Star Palace" accompanied by Zhuge Liang!

Although the Jade Dragon Armor is rated "Jade White", there is still a certain gap between the type of spiritual weapon and the rare object. The "Immortal City" belongs to the "weapon of luck" and is not a rare object.

"The Star Palace's 'Baptism of the Stars' and 'Star Illumination' have definitely greatly enhanced the potential of the territory's development, which is enough to allow an ordinary human territory to reach an extremely high level!"

"Although this 'Da Qin Xuanniao Coin Furnace' is not a building, as a rare object rated by Jade White, its value is not trivial."

In fact, just the fact that the minted currency can help the territory gain luck is already quite incredible!

The human race's territory follows the "path of luck", and luck is the most core factor.

Generally speaking, the only way to obtain luck is to increase the population and improve people's support, or to expand territory, launch wars, and plunder luck from other races!

But with this "Great Qin Coin", while fighting, the territory can also take another path, which is to gather luck by issuing currency and relying on "commercial transactions"!

"Congratulations, sir, for getting this wonderful thing. Miss Xue's idea about the 'Fangshi' will be truly realized."

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan in his hand and congratulated.

As a relatively "ancient" figure from the Three Kingdoms period, although Zhuge Liang was not like Xue Baochai at the beginning, he relied on his own business experience and some modern books from later generations to understand the concept of "financial war"!

But after the "Fangshi" was established, Zhuge Liang easily understood its essence by observing its operation.

In fact, the reason why outstanding people are powerful is not only because of their unique talents, but also because of their outstanding learning ability.

The outstanding figures of ancient times were not as good as modern people in some aspects, perhaps because of their lack of knowledge.

But their own insight and ability to understand new things are outstanding in any era.

Just like Zhuge Liang, he even saw the flaw in Xue Baochai's previous conception of the "square market", that is, it was not appropriate to use spiritual stones as an "intermediary currency".

First of all, spiritual stones are consumables and will become less and less with use.

In fact, the spiritual stone reserves in the "Dark Cave" can only be used for a few months at most!

Once the Lingshi is mined, the city will be in difficulty if new Lingshi veins are not found.

Secondly, the price represented by spiritual stones as currency itself is too high, and ordinary people cannot use them at all.

Just like Hu Sanniang brother and sister, even if they are high-level leaders of a human race stronghold with thousands of people, they can't come up with much that can be exchanged for spiritual stones. This makes the coverage of Fang City limited and difficult to attract people other than territorial caravans.

Now, with the ability to "mint coins", you can completely consider minting some coins with special special effects for "replacement".

Of course, the premise is that you can cast a "currency" that can be recognized by everyone and be willing to accept it, like spiritual stones.

"There are many materials and resources in the territory. If we go back and experiment, we should be able to find a suitable 'recipe'..."

With a smile on his face, Xia Tian put this set of "Great Qin Xuanniao Coin Furnace" into the lord's space.

Then, the team continued to move towards the "main tomb" marked on the route. The harvest from just two tombs was so rich.

Xia Tian is undoubtedly looking forward to what will happen next when he even obtains a rare item such as the "Black Bird Coin Mining Furnace" with a Jade White rating!

However, when the team arrived at the next tomb with an "Eternal Light", everyone was stunned.

"Hey, what's going on? This 'light' went out?"

The Ever-Bright Lamp has the property of condensing spiritual power into "common oil". Theoretically, as long as spiritual power exists, it will never go out.

But now it seems to have been "blown out" by something, and a layer of ice crystals has condensed on the surface!

"Look, the spirituality of these terracotta warriors and horses has also disappeared..."

Especially when everyone found a group of ten terracotta warriors and horses in the tomb, holding weapons in their hands and maintaining an attacking posture, but they could no longer move because the originally powerful spiritual energy fluctuations on their bodies dissipated, just like It's like being swallowed up by something.

The terracotta warriors and horses have undergone five transformations, although they have no "spirituality".

There may be some shortcomings, but ten terracotta warriors and horses are definitely not something ordinary people can handle!

"Could it be that there is really a territory that can be conquered first?"

Xia Tian's face became a little solemn.

Could it be that there were other lords who had obtained something related to Qin Shihuang like him, so that they quickly made their location after entering the secret realm, and entered the tomb before him?

"Quick, go directly to the main tomb!"

Therefore, regardless of continuing to empty the tomb, Xia Tian led Zhao Yun and others to speed up the march.

I found that all the bright lights on the road had also been extinguished.

In fact, not only the ever-burning lamp, but also the traps along the way seemed to have been triggered and destroyed.

As a result, they soon arrived at the main tomb marked by the craftsmen, and through a very huge stone door with an astonishing height, everyone entered the main tomb.

For the first time, I was shocked by what I saw in my field of vision!

"Is this really a tomb?"

In front of him, there was an extremely wide space that seemed to be one or two kilometers long.

On the dome of the sky hundreds of meters high, there are one hundred and eight stars inlaid with luminous gems, as well as two bright, slowly rotating sun and moon that rise and set under the action of the mechanism!

On the ground, there are the Chinese mountains and rivers, Kunlun, Qinling, and Mount Tai, carved with uncanny skills by craftsmen... And among these mountains and rivers, there are ten rivers and lakes watered by mercury, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea. …

Between heaven and earth, there are nine floors. From bottom to top, there are nine palaces, eight trigrams, seven stars... and other shapes, like a high platform made of gold.

Below the high platform, there are thousands of terracotta warriors and horses of different shapes guarding them. On top of the high platform, there are twelve "golden men" standing nearly ten meters high.

In the center of the twelve golden figures is a huge bronze chariot pulled by a lifelike nine-headed bronze dragon. On top of the chariot is a five-meter-long jade "Emperor's Coffin" with dragons and phoenixes carved on the surface. !

"The sun, the moon and the stars, the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas guarding them, the twelve golden men, the nine dragons pulling the coffin... Is this the spirit of 'one emperor through the ages'?"

Even though Xia Tian has seen many big scenes in movies and TV shows on Earth, he has also seen many atmospheric scenery in the Eternal Land. He has even seen the projection of "Emperor Ziwei" with his own eyes and the scene of stepping on the galaxy!

But the main tomb chamber that belonged to Qin Shihuang in front of him still made Xia Tian feel very shocked.

And Daniel and others were stunned!

"It's ridiculous! Ying Zheng, a tyrant like Shang Zhou and Xia Jie, took out his anger on others and buried us alive just because they were criticized."

"How can I live in such a magnificent mausoleum after death, perch high on a nine-layer golden platform, and bury myself in a fairy's white jade coffin?"

It was not Xia Tian and his group who said such words.

Instead, there were dozens of people located in a shadowed area of ​​the entire tomb, wearing Qin Dynasty-style black robes and exuding a cold aura!

"There are a total of one hundred and eight 'stars' in the sky above the head of this mausoleum, arranged in the pattern of 'Tiangang and Disha'... There are a total of twelve undulating mountains and ten mercury rivers on the ground, which coincide with the heavenly stems. The number of the earthly branches.”

"In addition, this golden platform is divided into nine palaces, eight trigrams, and seven stars from bottom to top... It seems that after our death, someone still made a plan for Ying Zheng, using the feng shui of heaven and earth to gather together, condense the true meaning of creation, survive in death, and strive to Live another life..."

A black-robed man with a powerful aura who had reached the seventh level of mortal transformation, holding a roll of cloth in his hand, said this.

"It's a pity that the world of Kyushu has long since changed. His extraordinary powers have faded and his spiritual power has dissipated... Even this ancient and unparalleled 'Feng Shui Formation' has no way of resurrecting him."

"However, this Feng Shui formation was not in vain. Now all the worlds are shattered and merged into an eternal place. This formation has also been created by heaven and earth, and it continuously absorbs the spiritual inspiration of heaven and earth. It is very likely that this 'jade coffin' will be enough to give birth to a child. A 'treasure'!"

"You mean, the elixir of life?"

Another man shrouded in black robes said doubtfully.

"How rare is the elixir of immortality? It is not easy to refine it with the power of mortals. It may not be an elixir. However, if it is an elixir, it will at least be a "supreme elixir." Once swallowed, it will be useful to us and others. For me, it’s enough to be otherworldly and gain endless mana!”

The warlock who spoke had his eyes shining, and he looked at the nine-story golden platform with a very greedy expression.

"Back then, we were tricked and killed by that Ying Zheng! Unfortunately, he never thought that one day we would be resurrected and appear in his tomb... The creation of heaven and earth that he worked so hard to create, Now I’ve been waiting for everything..."

Some of these men in black robes dressed in the Qin Dynasty sounded cold, while others were excited.

"Are these people the 'alchemists' who were tricked and killed by the First Emperor?"

On Huang Rong's pretty face, a pair of black and white eyes widened, and her red lips were slightly opened.

After Qin Shihuang unified the world, as he grew older, he became afraid of death like all emperors. So while building his own imperial mausoleum, he summoned warlocks from all over the world to research and refine and search for the "elixir of immortality" for him.

The result is self-evident. After squandering tens of thousands of money, not even a trace of the "Elixir of Life" was seen.

Several leading warlocks fled from Xianyang because they were afraid that Qin Shihuang would be held accountable. They also told others privately that Qin Shihuang was a tyrant and they left because they were unwilling to refine the elixir of immortality for him!

Qin Shihuang heard this.

Suddenly, thunder raged.

Ordered a search and interrogation in the capital, and captured 460 people, all of whom were buried alive outside Xianyang!

What are the identities of the four hundred and sixty people who were trapped and killed?

Some people say they are "Confucian scholars" who arrogantly talk about Qin Shihuang, while others say they are "warlocks" who deceived Qin Shihuang.

It has always been an unsolved mystery.

However, now that these appear in the main tomb of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, they are indeed "warlocks" and not Confucian scholars!

【Han Zhong (Silver)】

[Level] Seventh level of metamorphosis

【talent】? (Haojie’s aura obscures it, making it difficult to see)

[Characteristics] Catastrophic creatures, warlock talents

[Technique] Technique (the art of witchcraft),?

[Explanation] An alchemist who was once tricked and killed by Qin Shihuang was influenced by the "air of catastrophe" during the fusion of heaven and earth in the eternal world, evolved and reborn, and mastered the power of special magic!

"It's actually a 'catastrophe creature'?"

The information seen by the Eye of Insight made Xia Tian's eyes move.

Naturally, he was no stranger to the creatures evolved from the "Qi of Catastrophe", and he had already killed many of them in the Mysterious Inn.

Even if it weren't for the ninth heavenly tribulation falling and scattering the "black energy" when the luck weapon was "transcending the tribulation", the territory would most likely have encountered the impact of a catastrophic creature when it advanced!

However, the appearance of catastrophic creatures in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor was somewhat beyond Xia Tian's expectations, especially since the strength of these "catastrophic creatures" should not be underestimated.

The most powerful warlock's cultivation level has reached seven transformations, which is equivalent to his own. Even the more ordinary warlocks have five or six transformations and have mastered all "spells"!

"I'm going to take a look. What's in Ying Zheng's jade coffin?"

A taller and thinner warlock looked at the "jade coffin" on the stage and rushed over uncontrollably.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Under the high platform, a famous terracotta warrior raised a powerful crossbow in his hand, and a large number of crossbow arrows flew towards his figure.

"Apparition!"

The warlock chanted some kind of spell in his mouth, and his figure suddenly became insubstantial, and his breath turned into a faint black smoke passing over the terracotta warriors like a ghost.

Just as he was about to rush to the golden platform and get close to the "Emperor's Coffin", the rivers and lakes flowing with mercury on the ground suddenly turned into waves, and a "Mercury Tomb Guard" in human form rushed out and intercepted it!

Facing the "Mercury Mausoleum Guards" blocking the road, Warlock Zhong muttered something and tried to repeat his old trick, but suddenly he became unstable and even reached out to cover his neck!

"No, there is poison near this high platform..."

Then, he was covered by a mercury mausoleum guard, and a large amount of mercury poured into his body crazily. After a struggle, he completely turned into silver and lost the breath of life!

As a "different species", the Mercury Mausoleum not only has physical lethality. In addition to being in a regular liquid state, it can also release highly toxic mercury mist into the air. The entire tomb is shrouded in the mercury mist shuttle. , and the closer they get to the golden platform, the stronger it becomes. Once these warlocks rush in, they will be poisoned and cannot get close to Qin Shihuang's imperial coffin...

This may also explain why the previous "Mercury Ling Guard" fled in a hurry after launching a round of attacks, without attacking again in the middle.

Compared to these "warlocks" who had already broken into the main tomb, Xia Tian and others who had just entered the tomb were not considered important targets at all.

However, these "warlocks" do have some pretty good means, but they can't break through from the air.

"Earth Escape, Metal Escape..."

A warlock cast a spell, but his figure submerged underground to avoid the "Mercury Tomb Guard".

When he reappeared, he had directly reached the nine-story golden platform and stood next to the bronze "Nine Dragon Chariot".

"I saw it. Inside the emperor's coffin was..."

The warlock, with a look of ecstasy on his face, was about to rush towards the emperor's coffin...

Then, the next moment, his figure was enveloped by a tall golden figure, and he saw twelve golden figures guarding near the "Nine Dragon Coffin". The figure closest to him stepped forward, holding a fist. Swinging towards him, a rich golden light bloomed from the fist, and it was filled with an unparalleled sharpness, like a killing aura condensed by thousands of weapons, enough to open up the world!

"No, Jin Dun..."

The warlock's face changed in horror, and he hurriedly used the "Escape Technique" again in an attempt to retreat from the golden platform and escape.

However, the golden man's fist did not stop, but hit the golden platform heavily.

Bang!

A force of killing power that seemed to be substantial struck his body and penetrated into his meridians, flesh and blood, and even his soul, causing his body to reappear, and various weapons in the form of knives, spears, swords, halberds, etc. appeared. The wound exploded and died on the spot, leaving only a "catastrophe copper bead"!

[The First Emperor’s Golden Man (Gold)]

[Type] Strange objects·Architecture

[Characteristics] Weapon Killing (the golden man condenses the majestic killing energy, and can use the killing power to condense various weapons to attack during the battle), step on the ground and turn it into gold (the land near the golden man standing will generate materials suitable for crafting) The metal veins of weapons can produce high-quality 'spiritual gold' by consuming luck)

[Explanation] In order to curb the people's resistance, he gathered all the soldiers from the world, gathered in Xianyang, sold Feng Dy, and cast it into the Twelve Golden Man!

[Remarks] If a single golden artifact is further "cast" with luck, it can be further upgraded to the "Jade White" grade!

"These golden figures are actually puppets guarding the tomb. And, are they so terrifying?"

In the shadows.

There was some discoloration on the faces of the black-robed warlocks.

It was obvious that the Qin Dynasty had been destroyed, but the guards of the two "gold and silver" mausoleums made them unable to help but recall the scene when they were captured and buried alive by the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. The power of the Qin Dynasty was in this "eternal land". It seems no worse than when I was in Kyushu!

Ying Zheng, you tyrant!

What kind of merit can obtain such blessings as the will of the Nine Provinces and the destiny of the eternal land?

However, he and others are not even qualified to enter the eternal land, and can only be forced to become the incarnation of the "air of catastrophe"!

"Well, who is it?"

Suddenly, a black Qin robe warlock seemed to sense something.

He suddenly looked back at the entrance.

But it was a territorial soldier who was shocked physically and mentally after seeing this "golden man" take action, and accidentally leaked his own aura!

"They are actually some creatures that have entered the 'Eternal Land'!"

"Great, I'm just worried about how to find some creatures to kill and steal their luck so that we can enter the 'Eternal Land' smoothly! If we don't expect it, someone will come to our door."

"Catastrophe Creatures" are excluded by the Eternal Land and cannot exist for a long time. They must kill the creatures in the Eternal Land to gain enough luck to extend their survival time.

Since the treasures conceived in Ying Zheng's emperor's coffin include "gold and silver", they cannot be obtained in a short time.

Then, let’s kill this group of people first and seize their luck!
