Chapter 186: What Do You Desire?
guished his cigarette and hurriedly pulled over a backpack-carrying teenager. Where the teenager had just been standing, a gigantic 【mechanical giant】 was breathing steam.Lu Cheng took a breath of th...This rumor is the story of Xu Fu's eastward journey. Google search .com
While many people know about Xu Fu's voyage, few realize that he embarked on two separate expeditions.
Here's how things were back then.
When Emperor Qin was on his second tour, he held a ceremony of enthronement and inscription on Mount Tai. Then, the mighty procession went on to the Bohai Sea.
Upon arriving at the seaside, Qin Shi Huang ascended to Zhīfū Island, brimming with ambition. He beheld a breathtaking panorama: clouds and seas intermingled, mountains and people appearing and disappearing, a truly awe-inspiring spectacle that filled his mind with wonder.This vision was nothing more than a mirage, but the alchemists, eager to appease Qin Shi Huang's desire for immortality, described it as a legendary underwater fairyland.
According to the "Records of the Grand Historian", in the twenty-eighth year of Qin Shi Huang's reign (219 BC), "Xu Fu and others from Qi submitted a letter stating that there were three divine mountains in the sea, named Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou, where immortals resided. They requested permission to fast and send young men and women to seek them out. Thus, Qin Shi Huang dispatched Xu Fu with thousands of boys and girls to seek the immortals at sea."
Qin Shi Huang immediately agreed and gave a large sum of money to the Taoists led by Xu Fu.
But this was the first voyage out to sea, and nine years passed with no word.
In the thirty-seventh year of Qin Shi Huang's reign (210 BC), Xu Fu once again requested an audience with Qin Shi Huang. Because nine years earlier, his first voyage to seek immortal medicine had cost a huge sum of money without success, this time Xu Fu falsely claimed that he had been unable to succeed because large fish had blocked his way. He therefore requested to be equipped with powerful crossbowmen and set sail again.
It is rumored that in order to fight against the giant fish, Qin Shi Huang summoned Gongsun Wuji and Yin-Yang family masters to build a gigantic mechanical warship.
The name was inspired by the sea of clouds over Zhoushu Island that day.
It's a mirage!
On the day the ship was completed, the First Emperor ordered hundreds of elite Qin soldiers to accompany him on another eastward journey.
But everyone knows that Brother Zheng was cheated badly, and he never got to see the return of [Mirage] before he died.
Lu Cheng took a deep breath.
No matter how well this ship is built, it will always only be a copy. It can never be the legendary floating palace of history and legend, the [Mirage].
But what about the promises that the former officials made to the First Emperor back then
Xu Fu is definitely dead. If he received genuine support from the 'Zhe Ge', this card would no longer be a fake, but the only one...a legend.
Qin Huang, you really found him. He's mentioned in the card about the [Falling Dragon] legend - Zhengge's obsession is at the ancient battlefield of Youdu!
But Qin Huang definitely wouldn't believe that so easily, this matter is absolutely life-threatening.
But on the mainland, lack of strength is even more fatal.
Lu Cheng is now under tremendous pressure from and could die at any moment.
And he knew it clearly.
On the upper battlefield, two Golden 7-Star powerhouses are locked in a deadly duel. Their massive battlefields collide, truly making heaven and earth their playing board!
They wanted to kill themselves, it would have been a simple matter of one card, with absolutely no room for resistance....
Lu Chengsi thought about it and decided to give it a try.
It's not impossible for him to run into Zheng Ge.
Xu Fu was fully paid by Qin Shi Huang, but Lu Cheng is different; he only needs Qin Huang's investment.
And Xu Fu mentioned a big fish, and he actually had one!
Lu Cheng watched the big, silly thing gnawing fiercely at the rock... He could use it to show Zhengge and tell him this time, he could really handle the big fish.
"Master, I'm going to find some style. You wait for the Seventh Uncle to come back, and you can arrange the schedule yourself. Please hurry!"
"Where are you going, boy" Lu Ban asked curiously.
Lu Cheng blinked. "I'll go take a look... at an emperor for the ages."
.......
Outside the domain, the Holy Maiden ship was still sailing at full speed in the unknown waters of the Land of Dawn.
The Ice Dragon's recovery card replenishes energy in about 3 days. That means the Saintess ship departed three days earlier. When can the Ice Dragon catch up
This is a pursuit question.
Lu Cheng's math skills have never been great, but it should be safe within a week. However, when the Ice Dragon returns next time, the only thing he can rely on is the unfinished [Mechanism Core].
If you can't persuade Zheng Ge, then it will still be difficult to defeat the Ice Dragon.
Then go.
.......
When I was in the Valley of Whispering Death, I also opened a legendary card called 【Falling Dragon】.
It is said that on Mount Beiyin there is a famous sword called [Falling Dragon], which can cut off Emperor Qin's obsession. Lu Cheng didn't want to find the sword; he just wanted to have a good chat with Zheng Ge.
Choose 【Ancient Battlefield】!
One blink...
Can't open my eyes!
Before, when Lu Cheng read online novels, the descriptions of gloomy atmospheres were always pathetic.
When you truly feel the chill of "yin wind," you realize that these authors should be sent to ancient battlefields to experience life firsthand... maybe they'll come up with some more fitting new words!
I haven't reacted yet.
A mindless, spectral soldier crawled from the blood-soaked battlefield, extending a heavy rifle. From his deck of cards, Crimson Robe emerged, striking him down with a single blow.
Lu Cheng obtained a [Masterless Remnant Soul].
Discover the hidden realm 【Ghost City - Underworld Ancient Battlefield】!
The current number of available cards is unknown.
Introduction: A place where spirits converge, unwelcome to the living, and of course, the dead!
It's really difficult to move around here without the [Red Clothes]. But using it is probably a short-lived solution, I wonder how long this will last.
At this moment, Lu Cheng deeply understood Qin Huang. His empire was already an enduring legacy, yet life was as fragile as a candle flickering in the wind.
Changes of the sea, six paths of reincarnation.
Not to mention that Qin Shi Huang sought immortality, throughout the heavens and earth, all those who sought the Dao, weren't they burdened by calamity and struggled against fate They didn't necessarily seek for every method to work, but only yearned for freedom and longevity!
Lu Cheng also wants to be able to use the red-clothed girl unrestrainedly one day, using her fiercely without worrying about side effects!
In my mind, the soldier spirits surged forward again.......They kept coming, overwhelming me. In a sea of corpses and blood, countless soldier spirits emerged endlessly.
That's bad.
This is a whole battlefield, Red Clothing can't handle it, trying to figure something out.
Suddenly, Lu Cheng heard a deafening roar of arrows piercing the air. He looked up and saw an overwhelming rain of arrows covering the sky.
Then the arrows rained down...
Lu Cheng saw the situation and immediately pulled out his cards.
"Summon [Shadow Whale]!"
Li Cheng quickly took out the big fish.
This guy is not good at fighting, but now he has 20,000 health and is very tanky. After syncing up, dodging the arrow storm just works out perfectly, and you can even recover the lost blood...
But the surrounding soldier souls had no umbrella.
The arrow rain fell, and it was not merely physical damage. The souls of the soldiers immediately dispersed...
Lu Cheng looked in the direction where the arrows were flying, and a black mass of an army appeared...
Look carefully, it resembles Qin army attire. It reminds us of the First Emperor's obsession with leading his troops of Terracotta Warriors into battle. The sight before us must be the Grand Qin Army!
On the battlefield, flags fluttered in the wind, and the Qin soldiers were about to launch a new volley of arrows....
We can't let them shoot that out, can we
You can't win a fight, but...the goal wasn't to win in the first place.
Lu Cheng shouted to the distant battlefield.
"Wait! Your Majesty has swept across the six realms, and under heaven all is your domain. You have achieved everything in life, what else could you possibly desire" tree has a faint soul-pacifying effect. A large number of soul-soothing willows can even allow vengeful spirits to find peace, but it won't harm the souls.Lu Cheng placed the card on the anvil and,...
