Checking In for Sixty Years, From Puppet Emperor to Heavenly Emperor – Chapter 27

Ch 27: Qianyuan Emperor’s Treasure Room

Zhou An smiled mysteriously, walked to the hall, Ziyan, Ziqiong, and Zixuan were already waiting here, and the Empress had just returned from outside.

“Come and eat, Hundred Flowers Flower Wine, let’s try it together.” Zhou An took out the Flower Wine he got from checking in at Hundred Flowers Brothel.

Shangguan Rong saw this kind of wine in a Jade Bottle for the first time, and the color was purple-red.

After the six people sat down, Zhou An opened the bottle cap, and immediately a fragrance of Hundred Flowers floated out, and the smell alone made everyone present feel refreshed.

Ziyan exclaimed in surprise: “The Emperor, I feel that my Internal Force is being drawn, what is this?”

Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, with beautiful eyes full of anticipation, he smiled mysteriously and said: “Hundred Flowers Valley’s secret Immortal Wine, even Innate experts can improve their cultivation after drinking it, it will be of great benefit to you.

Moreover, this thing is relatively mild. After drinking these, within two years, you may all reach Houtian Tenth Level.”

“Really!” The five women exclaimed at the same time. If this is the case, then this thing can truly be called Immortal Wine.

Zhou An poured wine for them, and Zixuan immediately said: “The Emperor, let Your Subject pour wine for you.”

“There are no outsiders here, no need to be restrained, try it quickly.” Zhou An poured a cup for everyone.

The five people couldn’t wait to drink it, and soon showed expressions of surprise, and immediately circulated their energy to absorb it.

Zhou An smiled, took a sip himself, shook his head and sighed. This wine has little effect on him now. 300 years of Internal Force is already the limit, and it is difficult to improve it any further.

After they absorbed it, their eyes flashed with brilliance. Zhou An poured more for them and said: “You are all drinking it for the first time, the effect is the best, I’ll give it all to you.”

“Why don’t you drink, The Emperor?” Shangguan Rong immediately asked.

“I have already drunk it, it is useless to drink more of this thing. The Empress is busy with state affairs, so she can only use these external forces to assist her.” Zhou An said.

The Empress looked at Zhou An, and suddenly felt that the more familiar she became, the less she understood this Emperor. When she first entered the palace, she did have her own ambitions, but now she herself has not noticed that she has unknowingly recognized this man.

She really can’t see through him, whether it was the Great Ancestor Emperor who made him do this, or whether he originally had such abilities.

No one would have thought that after the Empress Dowager’s death, the Sixth Imperial Prince and the Shangguan Family could live in peace and jointly assist the Emperor. In everyone’s eyes, these two families were seeds of national chaos, and if it were another Emperor, they would have eliminated them long ago.

“Empress, what are you thinking about? Eat. This thing should allow you to improve twenty years of Internal Force. Ziyan, Ziqiong, and Zixuan should soon reach the peak of Houtian Ninth Level. Rong’er should be close to Houtian Eighth Level, right? Ling Sha, you are the slowest, only just past Houtian Fifth Level.” Zhou An said with a smile.

“Hmph, I started cultivating the latest, so of course it will be slower.” Zhou Ling Sha snorted unconvinced, and drank the wine again.

After the five people divided up a pot of wine, they all sat here and began to circulate their energy to absorb it. Zhou An did not disturb them, and let the Purple Guard guard outside. He went to the underground secret room to practice the Art of Sword Control. This kind of non-system item cannot be learned directly, and can only be comprehended by oneself.

The Method of Sword Control is actually not complicated. The most difficult thing is to find a suitable Flying Sword.

The Son of Heaven Sword was tailor-made for Zhou An. In addition, this sword itself has spirituality. Even if Zhou An doesn’t control it, the Son of Heaven Sword can fly around and even take him to fly on its own.

As a result, when this Method of Sword Control was used, Internal Force was poured into the sword, and a mysterious connection was born with oneself. Only a little Internal Force was needed to control the Son of Heaven Sword to fly.

However, this method is only basic. The truly powerful Method of Sword Control is actually combining spells and Flying Swords. This belongs to the profound Method of Sword Control.

The Son of Heaven Sword floats above Zhou An’s palm, absorbing the Internal Force released by Zhou An. This is what the book says about nurturing a Flying Sword.

He can’t put the Flying Sword into his body, so he can only use this method to nurture the Flying Sword.

The cultivation time passed quickly. It had been three days since he had completely learned the Art of Sword Control. During the day, he ran around Qian Capital, and almost 80% of the check-ins in the entire Qian Capital were completed. It is expected that all check-ins will be completed within five days.

On this day, he was thinking about how to combine the Son of Heaven Swordplay and the Art of Sword Control when suddenly a strange noise came from under his feet.

He immediately stopped nurturing the sword, and the Son of Heaven Sword was put back into the system space. He lay on the ground and listened to the movement below. The sound was very clear.

“Is there another space below? It’s impossible for there to be a mechanism here that I can’t detect. Is it sealed off?”

Zhou An was surprised, and then listened carefully for a while. The strange sound disappeared, but the voices of several people speaking came out.

“There are people below!” Zhou An immediately poured Internal Force into his fists, and the Qianyang Heavenly Alignment Fist bombarded the ground. The most yang and strongest fist force penetrated the ground, and the stone slab shattered. The stone slab under the fist shattered and sank, and cracks spread around.

Zhou An jumped up, head down and feet up, and punched the ground again with both fists.

This time the cracks in the ground widened, and the ground collapsed even more severely. The position hit by the fist exploded, and the stones could no longer withstand it and collapsed.

There really was a large space below, and the lamp posts below had already been lit.

He put on the Qianyuan Dragon Armor and put on a mask before jumping down. It turned out that this was a square tomb chamber. He was standing next to a stone coffin, and a hole had been drilled in the left wall.

A group of people stood on all sides, surrounding him with hooked blades. Behind this group of people, there were also five people who looked like leaders, one of whom was the bearded monk who had escaped last time.

“Arrived at the Qianyuan Emperor’s Treasure Trove, check in?”

Zhou An was pleasantly surprised. Hearing this name made him secretly happy, thinking that this was the place where the Sun Moon Universe Pearl was hidden, and immediately confirmed the check-in.

“Check-in successful, reward Innate Universe Art.”

Hearing this name made him ecstatic. Although he didn’t know if it was a real Sky-Rank Cultivation Method, judging from the name, it should be correct.

“Qianyuan Emperor! So you were hiding here. Haha, this tomb chamber is what you used to deceive the people in the Imperial Palace. I didn’t expect that the real hiding place was above. Fortunately, you showed up yourself, saving us the trouble. Hand over the Sun Moon Universe Pearl, and I can ignore your affairs.” The man in brown cloth clothes looked at him excitedly.

“These people don’t know!” Zhou An was surprised. Looking at the situation here, it is very likely that this is the real Qianyuan Emperor’s Mausoleum, and the layer where he was in the closed-door secret room was designed to confuse others.

Leaving all the equipment he used during his lifetime on it, creating the feeling that the Sun Moon Universe Pearl was snatched away, and the Qianyuan Emperor died violently here. Then the stone coffin here is likely to be the real Qianyuan Emperor.

“Who are you, dare to trespass into the Imperial Palace’s forbidden area.” Zhou An could see that those people were all Innate Realm Heretical Cultivators, stretched out his right hand, and the Son of Heaven Sword appeared.

“It’s this sword again! The same one used by the kid I met last time?” The bearded monk was surprised, wondering if the person behind the mask was the kid he met last time.

“Hmph, even if you are the Qianyuan Emperor, in our eyes you are just a mortal. Anyway, I don’t want this operation to be spread out, kill.” The man in brown clothes waved his hand.

The surrounding people immediately rushed up, and red blood light appeared on the weapons in their hands, which were not ordinary weapons.

Zhou An used the second move of the Son of Heaven Swordplay, and tens of millions of golden Sword Qi burst out, covering the entire tomb chamber like sunlight.

These people who rushed up were all pierced through the body and instantly killed by this swordplay move.

“That’s right, it’s this kind of swordplay, Old Dao was killed by this person!” The bearded monk exclaimed.

“Hmph, it seems that the Qianyuan Emperor has comprehended Innate, but it’s a pity that you have to be an enemy of our Crimson Soul Sect. Today, let the pillar of your empire collapse.”

The man in brown cloth clothes formed a seal with both hands, and talisman formations appeared around him, and eight ghost heads flew around his body.

“Eight Ghosts Devour Flesh.” This person stretched out his hands, and the eight ghost heads opened their mouths, revealing sharp teeth and whistling towards him.

Zhou An used the fourth move, Azure Dragon Breaks the Earth and Shakes the Universe, and the Sword Qi turned into an Azure Dragon and flew out. The ghost heads were directly torn apart when they touched the Sword Qi, and the Azure Dragon rushed straight to the man’s face.

“What!”

The five people were all surprised. Two of them threw out two shields, which turned into huge ghost head shields after flying out. The Azure Dragon Sword Qi impacted the shields, and the Sword Qi splashed everywhere, and the surrounding floor tiles were cut open.

“This person’s Internal Force has reached an unbelievable level. Attack together, and the Sun Moon Universe Pearl will be distributed later.” The man in brown cloth clothes shouted. The cloth clothes opened, and various ghost head ornaments were hanging inside.

“Hundred Ghosts Devour Bones.”

These ornaments emitted green light and turned into hundreds of fierce ghosts and pounced on him.

The other three people also released Magic Treasures, all kinds of strange-shaped ghosts, large and small, some even not in human form.

The bearded monk’s Crimson Blood Demon Blade shot out hidden among the Hundred Ghosts.

Zhou An did not dare to neglect, and used 100% of his Internal Force to perform the fifth move of the Son of Heaven Swordplay, White Dragon Overturns the Sea and Floods the Nine Provinces. The Sword Qi turned into a White Dragon, boiling in the tomb chamber, like overturning rivers and seas, tearing the pouncing ghosts apart and throwing them away.

The four people released more than three hundred ghosts together, but they could not break through this swordplay move.

At this time, the Crimson Blood Demon Blade seized the gap and rushed straight to Zhou An’s face through the Sword Qi.

Zhou An used the Universe Steps to barely dodge, but the Crimson Blood Demon Blade flew back and slashed at his neck.

The Son of Heaven Sword flew out from Zhou An’s hand, and he pinched the sword art. The sword blade collided with the Crimson Blood Demon Blade.

It could be seen that Immortal Energy appeared on the body of the Son of Heaven Sword, and cracks appeared on the surface of the Crimson Blood Demon Blade. The bearded monk showed a horrified expression when he saw it.

He immediately changed the magic seal to take back the Crimson Blood Demon Blade, but Zhou An did not give him a chance and instantly cut it off with the Son of Heaven Sword. The bearded monk spurted out a large mouthful of blood and exclaimed: “Immortal Treasure!”

The Crimson Blood Demon Blade is extremely powerful, and is nurtured with one’s own essence and blood, so it needs to absorb a lot of blood food to replenish its own blood energy.

Now that the Demon Blade was cut off, it was equivalent to oneself being cut off. When the monk shouted this sentence, the blood in his body instantly evaporated and disappeared, and he fell to the ground like a dried corpse.

This is the drawback of cultivating the Crimson Blood Demon Blade. In fact, the monk had not completely learned the Crimson Blood Demon Blade, but only obtained a part of it by chance. Otherwise, this powerful Demonic Skill would never be so easily broken.

The other four people were horrified. The power of the Crimson Blood Demon Blade was known to everyone. They did not expect that the other party not only had the Sun Moon Universe Pearl, an Immortal Treasure, but also a Flying Sword.

The four people were horrified and wanted to escape, but under the temptation of two Immortal Treasures, they were reluctant to leave.

While they were struggling with their thoughts, Zhou An used the seventh move, Black Dragon Howls to the Sky and Swallows the Sun and Moon. The Sword Qi turned into a Black Dragon, sucking the fierce ghosts that were still circling around into its mouth, and they were shattered by the Sword Qi in its belly.

Then he used the eighth move, Golden Dragon’s Wrath Shakes the Heavens and Earth. A Golden Dragon roared out, and the four people were shocked, their souls scattered. The Four Direction Ghost King Shields flew out, and were instantly pierced when they encountered the Golden Dragon.

The man in brown cloth clothes suddenly retreated, grabbing two companions beside him and blocking them in front of him. The two of them did not expect the Sect Leader to plot against them at this time.

As a result, the Golden Dragon flew over and pierced through the bodies of the two people. Finally, the cloth clothes on the Sect Leader showed talismanic Mystic Light, which blocked the remaining Golden Dragon Sword Qi.

Zhou An walked towards the remaining two people, the Son of Heaven Sword flew around him, the Immortal Energy was dazzling and the red light shone, making the two people greedy but afraid to take it.

“Great Emperor, spare our lives, we surrender.” The man in brown cloth clothes quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, and the other one also knelt down. Here, as long as the other party uses the Flying Sword to guard the entrance of the cave, they will not be able to escape with their Escape Technique.
