Lord of the Earth

"However, what is shown in this picture may not be true history... The so-called 'Shennong Whip' may not be a gift from the Emperor of Heaven..."

"In real history, it is very likely that countless people came one after another, countless 'Shennong' tasted hundreds of herbs, and with the lives, poisonings, and illnesses of many people, they finally gathered the experience of generations to find this medical path that has been passed down by the Chinese people for thousands of years..."

"The true origin of this whip may be the crystallization of the wisdom of countless Chinese sages. They are the true 'Emperors of Heaven' of the human race..."

Afterwards, he held the whip in his palm, his expression solemn and dignified, as if he was holding some kind of "inheritance".

"The sacrifice to heaven begins!"

And wait until Xia Tian took away the "Yandi Whip".

The image appeared again in the Xuanhuang Treasure Box, and a human figure appeared in the middle.

He was also tall, wearing a yellow imperial crown, a flat crown with twelve tassels on his head, and a brass sword carved with mountains, rivers, plants, gold and stone hung on his waist!
And around it, there were a large number of chariots that exuded a wild atmosphere, and on them were placed the corpses of various rare and exotic animals. Each of them exuded a terrifying pressure that made people feel that they were probably extraordinary or even holy beasts...

"It seems to be Taowu, Kuiniu, Mingshe, and Leiyu..."

Xia Tian even recognized that many of them were strange and ferocious beasts recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

"I respectfully inform Heaven that here is the Youxiong clan, who has inherited Heaven's will to rule the world...Since we have succeeded the saints of the past, we have accomplished great things and brought order to the country. I dare to report my humble achievements to Heaven."

"I started farming, taught people how to sow seeds, and made clothes to distinguish between the noble and the humble. I started etiquette, the foundation of civilization. I created writing to record historical events, taught people about the truth, and enlightened future generations. I cast bronze into weapons to control the four directions..."

Hmm, is this Emperor Xuanyuan offering sacrifices to heaven?
Xia Tian's idea moved. Bai Yujing would also be offering sacrifices to heaven and earth soon, which was a good opportunity for reference!
"When I ruled the country, I brought harmony to all nations, pacified the land and water, and when Chiyou rebelled, I personally led an expedition to suppress him and finally brought him to submission. Then I educated the four directions and practiced benevolence and righteousness. I also appointed officials and divided their duties, each of them performing their own duties..."

In the picture, Huangdi enumerates his own achievements and those of Youxiong clan. Each achievement causes heaven and earth to thunder, and the sound reaches the sky.

"Today, I, with a sincere heart, present this achievement before the Heaven, and I hope that the Heaven will take notice..."

And when the sacrifice is completed.

The sky was filled with wind and clouds, and a huge white jade golden palace appeared, stretching across the sky and the earth. Then the gate opened, and scenes of fairy beasts, singing divine birds, and dancing celestial maidens filled the sky.

A ladder made of clouds and mist descended in front of him. Moreover, a huge five-clawed yellow dragon with scales as big as a roof flew out from the sky and landed on the edge of the ladder. Its body like a mountain range crawled on the ground in a welcoming manner!
After Huangdi nodded, he took off his crown and put it together with the sword.

Afterwards, under the kneeling and respectful gazes of many tribal leaders, he climbed the ladder and walked onto the dragon's back.

Ride the dragon, ascend to heaven, and become an immortal!

In the end, the things in the picture shattered and disappeared, and what remained in Xia Tian's hands was the "Twelve-Tassel Flat Crown" that Huangdi wore when he offered sacrifices to the sky!
【Huangdi's crown (Xuanhuang?)】

[Type] Strange object

[Features] Emperor's Crown (Wearing this crown will give you the status of an emperor. If you are already an emperor, you can gain higher recognition, but you will need to bear a huge weight), Xuanhuang Embryo (After offering sacrifices to the heavens, you can condense corresponding features based on your own achievements, and the highest level you can reach is Xuanhuang)
[Explanation] If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!

The crown, which also means "emperor's crown", is a decoration that the Chinese nation attaches great importance to.

According to legend, the crown system originated from Huangdi. The crown was a ceremonial crown made by Huangdi's minister Hu Cao. Later, it was called "huang" in the You Yu period, "shou" in the Xia Dynasty, "冔" in the Shang Dynasty, and "mian" in the Zhou Dynasty!
The clothes worn by ancient emperors were generally divided into formal wear and casual wear.

Among the formal wear, the most important one is the crown used for sacrifice, and the crown is part of the crown. It is the most important crown type in ancient China. Depending on the identity of the wearer, there are three, five, seven, nine, and twelve tassels. The one with twelve tassels is the most noble and is reserved for emperors.

"The whip of Emperor Yan, the crown of Emperor Huang... Thank you so much, Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang..."

The expression on Xia Tian's face was very excited, even a little eager.

The two items come from the two emperors "Yan and Huang" respectively. For Xia, they represent extraordinary meanings.

The "Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors" in ancient Chinese legends are the orthodoxy of Chinese civilization, and Emperors Yan and Huang are the common ancestors that every Chinese person talks about!
In terms of meaning, these two items represent the inheritance of Chinese civilization, and one represents the recognition of the first "Human King" of China for people of later generations.

Now, the will of the earth gives such items to Baiyujing.

There is no doubt that this itself is full of expectations for Baiyujing.

After all, even if they all started with "god-level talent", Baiyujing is now at the forefront compared to most human territories. Human territories that can complete "founding a country" in the first year are definitely rare!
Moreover, Xia has always taken it as his mission to revive the "Chinese civilization".

The origin of Chinese civilization can undoubtedly be traced back to Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang. Now he has obtained the "items" of these two human ancestors...

In a sense, this might also be the ancient human emperor's "congratulations" and recognition to him, a descendant of the Chinese nation!

Although, only these two items were revealed in the third Xuanhuang treasure box.

But Xia Tian felt that this treasure chest was no worse than any other in the past, and was even more precious and had unlimited potential!

"Besides, one is Emperor Xuanyuan and the other is Emperor Yan. It is obvious that the will of the Earth also agrees with my idea. This matter should be possible..."

Xia Tian looked up at the "Lingyun Cave" which was completely covered by flames, making it impossible to see the inside clearly.

Roar!
Even though Jiang Wei used his own companion magic weapon to summon "Young Lin" and let it step on the flames to approach Lingyun Cave, he was stopped by a roar at the last moment, and even forced back by a burst of flames.

If Xia Tian remembered correctly, this was because the Fire Kirin in the Fengyun World had some mental problems and turned from a auspicious beast into a "ferocious beast".

Not only is he prone to going crazy himself, his Qilin blood can also turn human blood into "crazy blood", gaining powerful strength but at the risk of losing his nature!

"It seems that I still have to rely on this 'Flame Emperor's Whip'..."

Judging from the description of its properties, this whip should not only be used to whip "grass and trees", but also to whip living creatures, naturally including "mounts".

Clap!

Xia Tian looked at the entrance of Lingyun Cave opposite him, the flames that almost covered half of the sky. With a smile on his face, he raised the "Flame Emperor Whip" in his hand, and with a shake of his hand, a force rushed out, instantly opening up a passage in the flames...

This Shennong Yan Emperor Whip itself is a rare item with fire attributes. Now when it is swung, it has a powerful ability to restrain flames!

The most important thing is that when Xia Tian raised the whip, its power collided with the flame, and a burly human figure wearing bull helmet armor and covered with exotic animal fur suddenly appeared in the air, formed by flames.

That’s right, Emperor Yan Shennong!

Roar!
The next moment, the flames that had been attacking the periphery with astonishing momentum and burning the sky and boiling the sea suddenly became calm, revealing the true form of the Fire Kirin. "What a sacred Kirin!"

In an environment as hot as magma, a fire unicorn nearly a hundred meters tall stands. Its posture is like a god born from flames, full of endless power and majesty. The scales on its body shine with a red-gold light under the reflection of the flames, like molten steel, hard and hot.

Its head is held high, with a pair of flaming eyes flashing with a sharp light, and a pair of horns curved like knives, as if they can see through and tear apart all the hypocrisy and evil in the world, and the fluffy tail is like a burning flame, dancing in the wind and releasing amazing heat.

The aura on its body is so powerful that it seems to be able to melt all the cold and darkness. Every breath is accompanied by the roar of flames, as if announcing its dominance over fire.

Around the Fire Kirin, flames and clouds formed by the evaporation of a large amount of water vapor intertwined to form a magnificent picture.

"Is this the legendary holy beast? It is indeed powerful..."

Even the people of Baiyujing, who were knowledgeable and had extraordinary cultivation, couldn't help but show a look of surprise on their faces!

And in Xia Tian's eyes, a white light representing "insight" appeared.

【Fire Kylin (Gold)】

[Level] Extraordinary Six Realms Spiritual Map

[Alien Power] has not yet joined the territory and cannot be viewed.

[Talent] Auspicious Beast of Heaven and Earth (Qilin is one of the auspicious beasts. Once it joins any territory, it will bring a lot of benefits to it)

[Features] Fire Supreme (Qilin is a beast born from heaven and earth, naturally close to the power of the law of fire, and can perform various fire-related magic), Crazy Blood (Fire Qilin was once injured and the madness of the devil entered its body. Its blood can give people power, but it can also make people crazy and self-control)

[Description] The mount of "Emperor Yan" in a virtual world, possessing powerful strength.

Sure enough, this fire unicorn has really reached the "holy realm".

Although he is only in the "Sixth Realm of Transcendental Realm", the aura he exudes is far beyond the reach of a "Quasi-Saint" in the Fifth Realm of Transcendental Realm!
However, when such a powerful Qilin appeared in the figure of "Yandi", the aura emanating from its body suddenly became gentle, soft and joyful, and it even rubbed its head against Yandi's clothes in an intimate manner!

"Well, this isn't a saint at all. It's clearly a kitten or puppy that hasn't seen its master for a long time... It seems that a saint beast has only become more powerful, but it may not have lost the feelings of ordinary creatures."

Seeing this scene, Xia Tian's original worry and awe towards the "saint" level beasts dissipated to a great extent.

With a thought, the "Yandi" at the entrance of the cave reached out and stroked the mane and scales on the Fire Kirin's back. The latter did not resist, and even closed his eyes with a "woohoo", and actually fell asleep peacefully on the ground. The raging flames that soared into the sky completely calmed down.

"This... is actually going better than expected?"

Seeing this, everyone looked a little surprised.

Only Xia Tian knew in his heart that the whip in his hand was used by "Emperor Yan". As the mount of Emperor Yan, Fire Kirin took on the mission of guarding the Lingyun Cave alone for thousands of years. He did not dare to leave, which even led to his own insanity!
Now, after sensing the breath of Emperor Yan, he relaxed like a child seeing his mother and fell asleep naturally.

Moreover, I am afraid that this sleep will last for a long time, and it is also the best time for everyone to enter the Lingyun Cave!

"Sir, please allow Jiang Wei to explore the way..."

Jiang Wei, riding on a young Qilin, stepped forward and volunteered.

"We would also like to go..."

Shao Siming, who had yin and yang energy flowing through his body, and three extraordinary Feng Shui masters were also very interested in this "Lingyun Cave".

"Okay, let's go together!"

Xia Tian has never had the habit of shrinking back, and now that he has been promoted to the "prodigy" level, the magical power of his "natal blood" has been further improved. He also has the "Yandi Whip", a rare item of the Xuanhuang level, and the Jiangshan Battle Map, which can take everyone away at any time!
Naturally, I walked in with confidence.

A "cloud chariot" appeared on his feet, and after taking everyone on it, he entered the misty Lingyun Cave from the air.

The Fire Kirin, who was in a deep sleeping state, completely retracted the flames on the "Yandi" and allowed everyone to pass smoothly.

However, after going around its huge body, one can see a large amount of magma residue on the wall of the passage behind it. The edge of the wall has turned into some kind of crystal form...

"Well, this is Kirin Flint..."

Shao Siming raised his hand, and a crystal stone fell into his palm, emitting a red light, like a small sun.

This kind of stone is formed by the essence condensed from the stone melted by the Qilin flame. For Yin-Yang sorcerers who practice fire magic, it can not only speed up their practice.

It can even be used to perform various powerful spells to greatly increase its power, and even allow one to fight against opponents of higher levels!

"This is the scale of a Qilin..."

Jiang Wei was looking at a piece of red "metal" as big as a table on the ground in a passage. His usually calm face became excited.

You know, the "Qilin Armor" on his body is made of the scales of a young Qilin, and that was only a young one. Now, what are scattered in this passage are the scales of an adult Qilin, and there are even more of them!

The value of this thing can be said to be quite astonishing.

After all, this is a place that has been occupied by a saint-level Qilin for thousands of years.

For creatures of this level, any random items that fall off their bodies are likely to be natural treasures of staggering value!

"Hey, look, there are some amazing plants!"

Not far away, everyone discovered something strange.

In the passage that was emitting a high temperature that was unbearable for mortals, there was actually a plant growing. Its shape seemed to be carved from red jade, and hanging on it were many bodhi-sized fruits that were as crystal clear as red agate. If you looked closely, they looked more like miniature versions of the fruits of the Fire Unicorn.

What kind of plants can grow in such an environment?
"Hmm, this breath... has such a strong medicinal property..."

As they approached, they could smell a refreshing aroma. Just smelling it made them feel as if they were about to break through. It was no less beautiful than the "Five Elements Heavenly Pond" of the Spiritual Clan! (End of this chapter)
