They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 163 [The Memories of the Frost Emperor]
Dan Lei was unaware of the Suihuang Faction's intention to attack him. After all, the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship offered Dan Lei no advantage in terms of foresight, and he could only react to problems as they arose.

However, aside from the provocation at the port, everything went very smoothly on the first day at Zhu Ming Xianzhou.

After quickly filling his stomach, Dan Lei successfully applied for a meeting with General Huai Yan, and then headed straight for the residence of Zhu Minglong Zun [Yan Ting Jun].

Upon arriving at Zhu Ming Chiming's residence, Dan Lei had only one feeling.

That is, the Wisdom Clan with a Dragon Lord is completely different from the Wisdom Clan without a Dragon Lord.

The Luofu Vidyadharas are currently leaderless. The Dragon Master Council can manage the ordinary Vidyadharas, but those with some ability are basically obedient to orders but not to orders, and they don't even pay any attention to them.

Because Bailu has been born as the new generation of Dragon Lord and has already passed through her infancy.

Although its size hasn't grown much, this is normal among the Vidyadharas, as many of them remain in a childlike size their entire lives.

Therefore, the Dragon Master Council's reluctance to relinquish power has already aroused dissatisfaction among many Luofu Vidyadharas.

This led to extremely chaotic management.

In contrast, with the presence of [Yan Tingjun] on the Zhu Ming side, the Dragon Master Council is quite well-behaved, and the ordinary Zhu Ming clansmen below are visibly living in greater peace and prosperity.

Of course, Dan Lei wouldn't talk about the Luofu Chiming problem outside. Although they are of the same ethnicity, it's far from the time to bring in foreign aid to solve the Luofu Chiming problem.

Moreover, even if one were to seek guidance, one should go to Fanghu's Lord Huyuan.

Therefore, Dan Lei's meeting with [Yan Tingjun] was conducted entirely in the mode of the White Dragon, who was reborn three times over.

Meanwhile, Draig and Albion were also released.

In the territory of the Vidyadharas, they are naturally allowed to move around in normal size.

Dragons are a rare sight in this era, even in the West.

Not to mention the Immortal Boat Alliance, a group of enlightened commoners who will never even be able to leave the Immortal Boat once in their entire lives.

However, after flying a few laps, Drag and Albion couldn't stand being stared at like rare animals, so they simply hid back inside Danlei's body to sleep.

But Danlei achieved his goal.

Danlei, in his white dragon form, received the same treatment as other immortal dragon lords within the Zhu Ming Chiming clan.

During the meeting with [Yan Tingjun], no sensitive topics were raised, and the meeting was generally pleasant for both the host and guests.

However, Danlei declined Yantingjun's invitation to temporarily reside in Zhu Ming's territory.

He also politely declined Danzhu's invitation for Danlei to stay at her house.

Dan Lei chose to rent a house with a yard near the Flame Wheel Forging Palace.

Danlei chose to rent a house instead of a hotel, mainly because he carried the dangerous item "Aha" tears.

This thing is in Danlei's bag. For safety reasons, it's best not to leave it in a crowded or unfamiliar place.

Moreover, it's not easy to set up a large barrier in a place like a hotel.

Since Dan Lei wasn't short of money, he directly contacted the local chamber of commerce to rent a house. This way, the house could be better equipped to set up the barrier and would make it easier to go to the Flame Wheel Forging Palace.

Moreover, as long as the money is paid in full, the chamber of commerce in charge of house rentals is extremely efficient. Danlei got the keys in just one hour, and the relevant procedures will be handled and delivered by someone else.

Then, early the next morning, Danlei's temporary residence welcomed its first guest besides Danzhu.

Since Danlei had only moved in yesterday, and devices like the electronic doorbell hadn't been installed yet, he was woken up by a knocking sound.

I quickly got dressed, opened the door, and saw that no one was there.

Okay, nobody's kidding. Danlei just didn't see the person at first glance because the person was too short and he had to look down to see them.

However, Dan Lei recognized this person; it was none other than Yun Li, Yan Qing's future bickering lover.

Upon seeing Dan Lei, Yun Li immediately took out a jade tablet, projected a 3D image of Dan Lei, and then said...

"Great, it seems I didn't knock on the wrong door."

"Hello, I'm Yun Li. Grandpa... uh, General Huai Yan, he sent me to pick you up and take you to the Flame Wheel Forging Palace to see him."

Seeing this, Dan Lei naturally replied.

"I understand, Miss Yunli. My name is Dan Lei, and I should be the person you are looking for."

"Please wait a moment, I need to go back to my room to get something."

Upon hearing that Dan Lei was about to take something, Yun Li immediately reminded him.
"If possible, it's best not to bring too much stuff to the Flame Wheel Forging Palace. After all, that's where the [Suihuang] is imprisoned, and there are many inspection procedures."

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei thought it made sense and then said to Yun Li...

“Miss Yun Li, if that’s the case, please contact General Huai Yan via private communication and say that the items I’m carrying are closely related to [Chang Le Tian Jun] and cannot be inspected. Please make an exception.”

【Chang Le Tian Jun】 refers to 【Aha】. Since 【Aha】 did not have much contact with the Immortal Ship, the Immortal Ship Alliance still maintained the respect for a star god towards him.

Upon hearing this, Yun Li immediately tensed up and questioned...
"What! You brought something so dangerous to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship? What do you intend to do with it?"

Danlei knew he was straightforward and that he was in the wrong, so he didn't take her questioning to heart and explained...

"Actually, that thing is sealed in the artifact storage box made by Lady Black Tower, so it is still very safe."

However, I can't store this in my spatial storage, so I have to carry it with me at all times.

One of the purposes of my visit to Zhu Mingxianzhou was to ask General Huaiyan to build a large sword case to store this item.

"Of course, I will also provide some materials that even the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship cannot obtain, hoping that General Huaiyan can help me forge a few flying swords."

Upon hearing Dan Lei's words, Yun Li's tense expression eased slightly.

She knew she couldn't make any hasty judgments about what would happen next, so she took out her personal phone and reported Dan Lei's situation to Huai Yan.

Dan Lei took this opportunity to go back to his room to wash up a bit, then picked up the backpack containing the treasure box and came out again.

At this moment, Yun Li had already finished communicating with Huai Yan. Seeing that Dan Lei was carrying an ordinary, probably worthless backpack, she immediately complained...

"Don't tell me that this is the kind of packaging you use for the divine artifact of [Chang Letianjun]."

Dan Lei simply smiled and explained.

"The item was sealed in a vault for rare artifacts, not my bag."

Even if I use animal hides to make bags, in terms of usage, there will be no difference between ordinary canvas bags and animal hide bags.

Moreover, such an ordinary bag can reduce the chances of others stealing from it, because no one would think that there are valuables in such a bag.

Only petty thieves would steal it.

"And I, obviously, won't have anything stolen by an ordinary petty thief."

Seeing that Dan Lei had given such a reason, Yun Li couldn't refute it, so she said...
"Alright, I just contacted Grandpa, and he didn't choose to have the Ten Kings Division take you away for investigation."

So come with me, I'll take you to see Grandpa.

Dan Lei was not surprised that General Huaiyan did not summon anyone from the Ten Kings Division.

Although the creations related to the Star God were indeed dangerous items that needed to be appraised by the Ten Kings Division, Dan Lei couldn't find any fault with them when he brought them over.

However, General Huaiyan, having lived for so long, understands human nature and social dynamics. Dan Lei's visit to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship this time, for the time being, seems to have no malicious intent. [Chang Le Tian Jun] isn't one of those calamity ancestors, so theoretically, his divine artifact shouldn't have too much destructive power.

Of course, General Huaiyan never expected that Danlei would bring two drops of Star God-level Joyful Fate Imaginary Energy Crystals. This stuff is really explosive; one drop can destroy a star system as easily as playing with it.

Moreover, Dan Lei is one of our own, so it's unlikely that he would intentionally endanger the safety of Zhu Mingxianzhou.

Therefore, Huaiyan decided to meet Danlei first before deciding how to deal with him, so as not to offend him too much right from the start.

With Yun Li leading the way and Huai Yan giving them the green light all the way, Dan Lei was quickly taken to the Flame Wheel Forging Palace.

After following Yun Li, the two entered a dark, circular hall together.

Yun Li casually grabbed a piece of paper from the table in the main hall, folded it into the shape of a bird in a few quick movements, said something that Dan Lei couldn't even hear, and tossed it into the air.

Once the paper bird was thrown into the air, it immediately transformed into a paper puppet and quickly flapped its wings to fly away.

A moment later, as if some mechanism had received a signal, a tremor like an avalanche resounded around the main hall.

The circular walls of the hall continued to separate and shrink, until only the base of the hall remained beneath our feet, and light from an unknown source illuminated the entire room.

Dan Lei was a man who had seen many grand occasions, and the changes in the main hall did not surprise him.

Moreover, Danlei quickly figured out what was going on.

The base of this great hall is floating on an unseen track.

Below that was a dazzling body of light, as bright as a star.

This luminous body should be the true form of the "Flame Emperor" as seen in the universe.

However, at this distance, it's no longer clear that it emits blue light; all you can feel is its dazzling brilliance.

At this moment, the base of the main hall was slowly rotating along the celestial orbit, floating above this mass of "sun".

Out of curiosity, Dan Lei found an angle to take a look at the true form of the [Suihuang], who could captivate minds even in a deep sleep.

Here, Dan Lei wasn't courting death; rather, Bai Heng's travelogue recorded that she, as a member of the Yao Qing Immortal Ship delegation, had seen the true form of [Sui Huang] with everyone else.

Bai Heng was one thing, but the people in those delegations were at most at the level of ordinary Cloud Cavalry.

None of them were directly brainwashed, so what is Danlei afraid of?

In terms of mental resilience, Dan Lei believes he is much stronger than them.

As Dan Lei deliberately stuck his head out, after having his memories and destiny enhanced, he began to stare directly at [Suihuang].

The next second, Dan Lei felt the light around him distort.

A surge of consciousness, like a turbulent torrent or a raging fury suppressed since ancient times, tore and roared as it rushed toward him.

Dan Lei knew that this was the consciousness of [Suihuang], which, although dormant, was not dead.

With the spiritual power that he had enhanced by his memories of destiny, he was naturally able to perceive it.

The consciousness of [Suihuang] is incredibly powerful. If an ordinary person were to sense it, they would be trapped in a mental gravity field, and if they were not careful, their consciousness would be stolen by a tidal wave of illusions.

But if it were a stronger person, they would only feel the raging anger that Dan Lei was currently sensing, anger that had been suppressed since the ancient times.

Moreover, this was only the first test. After enduring the impact of the rage, Dan Lei felt himself being pulled into an illusion in the next instant.

A tree with no end in sight hangs down from the sky, its branches piercing the starry sky.

In the vacuum, ships spewing the light of the sun and moon rush towards the ever-changing flesh and blood, like fireflies chasing after flowing flames, and humanoid birds with outstretched wings...

One could hear the roars of the cloud chariot and star raft before they crashed: "Protect the immortal ships!" "Cloud cavalry, eternal victory!"...

In the distance, a golden colossus hundreds of meters tall strode forward, its cold iron arms clashing with a giant beast covered in countless eyeballs, sharp teeth, and gelatinous flesh.

In the sky, radiant warriors wielded spears and longbows that emitted a burning death aura. Each of them seemed to have had their genes sculpted and selected, possessing power and beauty that surpassed that of the current Immortal Ship people.

Even more chilling was the unnatural flames enveloping them, as if a manifestation of their inner courage and rage. They charged again and again, disappearing into the boundless darkness, never to return…

"...This oath is made, and we will keep it forever!" The light roared, echoing in my ears.

Dan Lei, who was familiar with the history of the Immortal Ship Alliance, immediately realized that this was the memory of the [Suihuang], which was the [Fire Calamity War] triggered by the second invasion of the Immortal Ship fleet by the Wingers.

At this time, the Immortal Ships of the Immortal Ship Alliance were still operating together as a fleet, so the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship was right next to the Luo Fu Immortal Ship.

At the same time, this was also the battle in which the Cloud Cavalry was born.

Ignoring all warnings, Di Gong entered the deepest prison of the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship and persuaded the leader of Sui Yang, Sui Huang, who had been imprisoned, to make a body-snatching deal with him, exchanging his own body for the assistance of Sui Yang's power.

Many people on the various celestial ships, in response to the hero's sacrifice, chose to make the same deal as the hero. They joined the suicide squad, marching alongside Suiyang, vowing to protect the celestial ships like clouds obscuring the sky, never to touch the ground.

The name Yunqijun (Cloud Cavalry Army) was born from this.

The body of the [Suihuang] on Zhu Mingxianzhou is what remained after it fused with the Emperor's Bow following this battle.

Dan Lei was not out of his mind or lost in the memories of the great battle.

At this moment, Dan Lei's memory of the Fate Path Protection, and his consciousness slowly followed [Suihuang]'s memory of this battle, preparing to delve deeper into it.

However, a fierce and unusually stern voice suddenly sounded in Dan Lei's ear.
"You must not go any further! Any further ahead is forbidden territory for sentient beings, the endless dream of the [Suihuang]. Any emotion you have could awaken the progenitor of Suiyang."

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei didn't stubbornly insist, because there was definitely a big gap between his spirit and that of [Suihuang].

Once you're trapped in its dream, it'll be hard to escape.

Moreover, if [Suihuang] is truly awakened, even if Danlei manages to escape unscathed, Zhu Mingxianzhou will certainly be destroyed.

At that time, Danlei's only way to escape this calamity is to fake his death, transfer his consciousness to the puppet, abandon his spiritual body, and live in anonymity.

Therefore, as soon as Dan Lei withdrew his consciousness, he returned to his own body.

At this moment, an old man with white hair and beard, only waist-high to Dan Lei, was standing in front of him.

However, although the old man was the same height and build as a child and was somewhat hunched over, Dan Lei felt as if he were looking up at a towering mountain just by the old man standing there.

Dan Lei immediately bowed and said...

"Junior Chiming Danlei greets General Huaiyan."

　Huaiyan once sent the young Yingxing to pick up the delegation that Baiheng was part of.

　　Therefore, it was his habit to send his disciples to pick up people.

　　In addition, I found that many players online had a misunderstanding.

　　Yun Li is Huai Yan's granddaughter, but she is adopted.

　　Huaiyan is the oldest person in the Immortal Boat Alliance, how could Yun Li's father be his son?

　　Moreover, Huaiyan's race is the Star People Lipu, not the Celestial Race of the Immortal Ship.

　　[Yan Tingjun] is a character that will definitely appear in future games, so we can't just guess at his description.

　　Therefore, it was mentioned only briefly in the article, since it is still uncertain whether the person in question is male or female.
