Chapter 35 Signing in with the Emperor's Seal! One step to Kunlun!
Before heading to Kunlun, Lin Fan decided to use up today's "check-in" record.
After all, even a small mosquito is still meat.
If I get lucky today and manage to pull out a life-saving trump card during the daily check-in, I'll have a lot more confidence when I go to Kunlun for some fun.
He strolled to the center of the courtyard and came to the old locust tree that had been transformed.
The old locust tree now possesses a mystical quality.
The tree trunk had become several times thicker, and its entire body radiated a warm, jade-like luster.
The tree canopy blocked out the sun, and every leaf seemed to breathe in and out pure spiritual energy, enveloping the entire courtyard in a visible pale white mist.
The snow-white locust flowers bloom all over the branches, their fragrance refreshing and invigorating. Just one whiff of it brings clarity of mind and a sense of peace.
Lin Fan could clearly feel that the "spiritual energy conduit" he had casually created was continuously supplying the transformed primordial spiritual energy to the divine tree.
The fortune of the "Ancestral Temple of the Human Emperor" is recovering and growing at an astonishing rate.
"Not bad, not bad. Now this courtyard will finally look more like a fairyland."
Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction, stretched, and silently recited in his mind.
"System, check-in."
[Ding! Detected a significant increase in the fortune of the "Human Emperor's Ancestral Court." The host has successfully averted a "Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth," contributing to the protection of humanity's fortune!]
[This sign-in has triggered a special merit reward!]
[Congratulations, host! You have obtained—"Human Emperor's Seal (Fragment)"!]
boom!
The moment the system notification sound ended, a palm-sized bronze fragment appeared out of thin air in Lin Fan's system space.
The fragment was unremarkable in appearance, covered with gruesome wounds from axe and sword strikes, and the gaps were still filled with dried dark gold bloodstains.
The fragment bears only half a blurry ancient seal character, yet it exudes a sense of desolation and majesty that transcends millennia, as if it were carrying the backbone of a civilization.
[Human Emperor's Seal (Fragment): In ancient times, the Human Emperor forged the Nine Tripods and refined the Human Emperor's Seal to suppress the destiny of the human race and command the land. This is one of the broken fragments of the Human Emperor's Seal, containing a trace of the Human Emperor's original power.]
[Effect 1: By holding this seal, the host can mobilize a portion of the power of heaven and earth in areas shrouded in the fortune of humanity, making their words lawful and impervious to all magic.]
[Effect Two: This seal possesses a natural, absolute suppressive power originating from the bloodline source against demons, monsters, ghosts, and other alien races.]
[Effect 3: By collecting all the fragments, the complete Human Emperor Seal can be reforged, allowing you to become the new Human Emperor and wield the power of humanity.]
Lin Fan stared in disbelief at the introduction on the system panel.
The Emperor's Seal?
This thing... sounds way more awesome than any divine martial arts manual, immortal sword, or magical treasure!
Commanding mountains and rivers, inviolable by all laws?
Absolute suppression of the bloodline's origin?
Isn't this officially certified GM privileges?!
With a thought, he took the bronze fragment out of the system space.
The moment the fragment appeared in the world, the fortune of the entire courtyard house suddenly surged!
The sacred locust tree in the courtyard danced wildly without wind, its thousands of branches and leaves rustling like a roaring sea, as if paying homage to the return of a king.
An unprecedented sense of blood connection was instantly established between Lin Fan and this "Ancestral Court of the Human Emperor," with this world, and even with the "human destiny" of the entire Chinese nation.
Lin Fansheng had a clear understanding.
With a mere thought, he could command the dragon vein energy beneath the capital city.
He even felt that with a single thought, he could bring favorable weather and abundant harvests to the land of China, or he could bring natural disasters upon it.
"Holy crap, this is way too overpowered..."
Lin Fan was startled and quickly put the Human Emperor Seal back into the system space.
This thing is too dangerous; it's practically the launch button for a nuclear weapon. It should never be used lightly unless absolutely necessary.
However, with this thing, this trip to Kunlun is basically a sure thing.
No matter how powerful Kunlun Mountain is, it is still within the territory of China and is subject to the rule of human destiny.
He carried the Emperor's Seal with him, like an imperial envoy inspecting work; who would dare not give him face?
"Sir, are you...are you alright?"
Seeing Lin Fan standing there motionless for a long time, his expression changing from astonishment to secret delight, Fang Qingxue couldn't help but ask him with concern.
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Lin Fan snapped out of his reverie and waved his hand. "I was just thinking about something happy."
He's in a great mood right now.
Not only did it solve the environmental pollution problem in the yard, but it also gave me a treasure map and GM privileges for free.
This was a great deal, a huge profit!
"Let's go, let's set off for Kunlun!"
Lin Fan waved his hand, full of vigor and high spirits.
"Go now?" Fang Qingxue was stunned.
"Now of course." Lin Fan glanced at her. "Are you suggesting we wait for them to bring me the spring water? That would take forever."
"But... how do we get there?" Fang Qingxue asked, voicing her doubts. "The Kunlun Mountains are thousands of miles away. Even the fastest plane would take several hours. Besides, there's no airport in the Kunlun Mountains at all."
"Who said we were going to take a plane? Those canned goods are slow, noisy, and have to go through security. It's such a hassle."
As Lin Fan spoke, he walked over and grabbed Fang Qingxue's wrist.
They resorted to the same old trick.
The next instant, Fang Qingxue's vision was completely shattered!
Heaven and earth and all things transformed into an endless torrent of light and color, surging and rushing backward in an incomprehensible direction.
This time, she endured the dizziness of having her soul ripped away and did not close her eyes.
She saw Lin Fan standing outside this chaotic torrent, his expression calm, as if he were simply standing on the banks of a rushing river of time.
Then, he took a small step towards the opposite bank of the river.
That's all.
When Fang Qingxue's gaze refocused, the lively atmosphere of the hutongs in Beijing had vanished completely.
The biting cold wind, carrying thin air, instantly filled my lungs.
Looking around, one sees endless snow-capped peaks, each one like a giant sword piercing the sky.
The sky above was a pure, dark blue, so clear that not a single cloud could be seen. The vast stars hung low, as large as silver plates, as if they were about to fall down at any moment.
This is the roof of the world.
He is the ancestor of all mountains.
Kunlun!
"vomit……"
Fang Qingxue could no longer hold back and bent over, retching violently.
Even though she was a master of internal energy, this sudden change of traveling thousands of miles in an instant, from the plains to a plateau at an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters, caused her body to protest the most strongly.
My head is splitting with pain, and I feel dizzy.
"Tsk, his physical fitness is still too poor."
Lin Fan shook his head and casually patted her on the back.
A gentle, warm current flowed in, instantly calming the turbulent blood and qi in her body, and all discomfort vanished.
Fang Qingxue's complexion quickly regained its rosy hue.
She straightened up, gazing in awe at the magnificent snow-covered landscape that seemed to exist only in mythology, then looked at Lin Fan beside her, who remained calm and composed, and her breath caught in her throat.
From the capital to Kunlun.
step.
This is not supernatural power.
This is... the authority that only gods possess!
Just then, the system notification sounded in Lin Fan's mind again.
[Ding! Host detected arriving at a special check-in location—"Kunlun Ruins (Outer Area)"!]
Should we perform a "special check-in" here?
[Note: Special check-in locations will offer significantly increased rewards, but each location can only be checked in once.]
Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
Is there really such a good thing as a hidden dungeon?
"Sign in! Sign in right now!" He did not hesitate.
[Ding! Successful check-in at Kunlun Market!]
[Congratulations, host! You have obtained—"The Queen Mother of the West's Peach (Pit)"!]
