Chapter Twenty-One: Awakening the Emperor-Level Bloodline
From the perspective of the world:
The aura that erupted from the depths of the cave was like an irresistible hurricane, a force impossible to escape. It spread with devastating speed, sweeping through everything in its path, engulfing the entirety of the Forest of Doom.
The beasts that inhabited the forest, regardless of their strength or pride, fell to the ground in submission. Those known for their ferocity shrank in fear, while others trembled uncontrollably. Even the mightiest magical beasts, unseen for centuries, lowered their heads toward the cave as if acknowledging the sovereignty of this newfound power.
It was no different in the outside world. The aura did not stop at the forest's borders but continued to spread like an endless sea. It swept through cities and villages, reaching humans who could not resist its influence. Everywhere, people fell to their knees, their eyes fixed on the horizon in astonishment and fear.
In a distant village, an old woman sat on the threshold of her home when she felt the aura. Her body froze in place, her dim eyes staring at the sky. She murmured in a trembling voice:
"This is no ordinary power… This is the Master of the World himself!"
In the great cities, experts and warriors who had spent their lives pursuing power knelt on the ground, unable to move. Resistance was futile. The aura was absolute, its strength forcing even the strongest to submit.
The very air was heavy, laden with an indescribable dread. Birds ceased flying, and wild creatures became motionless, as though the world itself was anticipating something monumental.
The terror of the aura was not merely a physical effect; it was something beyond comprehension, touching the depths of the soul. Beasts and humans alike instinctively understood that this power was not something to be challenged. It was a force belonging to an entity above all others—an entity capable of reshaping the entire world.
Everything was subdued. Everything knelt before this immense power. For the first time in centuries, the world felt the aura of an emperor once more. In this world that had forgotten the presence of such an aura, they would never be able to forget it again.
From Arthur's perspective…
Over time, little by little, the dragon's heart within my body, which initially started the size of a clenched fist, had grown significantly, nearly doubling in size.
The slender meridians in my body stretched in unprecedented ways, absorbing energy and distributing it to every part of me.
As I continued to absorb the potent effects of the Marrow-Cleansing and Blood-Purifying Pill, my body was nourished by its alchemical essence, and my aura grew stronger and stronger. The pill's effect, over time, completely refined the essence and blood of the dragon within me. My blood transformed into a fiery crimson, glowing with a radiant scarlet light.
At this moment, my bloodline evolved into that of a fifth-rank emperor. Previously, the blood in my veins was a deep red, but now it had turned into a luminous crimson, signifying a massive enhancement in my internal strength.
My body had become stronger, and the power of my dragon scales, once ordinary, now surged to the strength of lifting 1,000 tons. Based on the human cultivation stages, my level now equaled the first stage of Foundation Building. My strength had grown by leaps and bounds, preparing me for the challenges ahead.
After consuming the Marrow-Cleansing and Blood-Purifying Pill, I followed it with the Great Body-Calming Pill. Upon consumption, it granted me a permanent and fundamental increase in my physical strength, leaving me with a tremendous sense of improvement in my body. My muscles and bones became smoother and more powerful.
The time had come to claim the Golden Lion's opportunity. There was nothing left to hinder my progress toward achieving my goal. Now, at the pinnacle of my transformation, I would claim the inheritance of the Poison Emperor's Tomb.
This inheritance might hold the keys to locating the tombs of the other emperors' legacies.
After that, I will head to the Tomb of Emperor Buddha, where the legacy of Emperor Buddha was obtained by the protagonist's friend in the story. By acquiring this legacy, I will gain the Sacred Devil Buddha Physique, considered one of the greatest physical constitutions of all time.
By integrating the power of the Sacred Devil Buddha into my body, my physical strength will transform into a superhuman force, enabling me to endure immense pressures and overpower the strongest of enemies. This new physique will be a unique fusion of holy strength and demonic energy, significantly enhancing my combat abilities and ensuring my superiority in every confrontation.
This immense power will allow me to ascend to higher levels of strength, making me undefeatable and fully prepared to face any challenges in the future.
In any case, there is still an abundance of Emperor-level Marrow-Cleansing and Blood-Purifying Pills, enough to benefit my sister, the old snake, and his daughter.
At the very least, I still have more than ten of these pills...
Enough for my sister, the old snake, and his daughter, the little turtle. In any case, I still have more than ten bottles filled with it…
From the perspective of the world
After a month,
Meanwhile, a man was sitting on his throne in the Green Kingdom's palace, surrounded by princes and officials.
One of the princes said, "Your Majesty, please, grant me permission to lead a group of knights to the Death Forest to search for the treasure that appeared there. Over the past month, three similar auras have emerged from the forest, and it is suspected that they are a sign of the birth of three legendary treasures. Please, grant my request."
Another person spoke, "Your Majesty, the prince is right. It has been over a month since the three treasures appeared in the Death Forest. Please, agree to the prince's request."
The royal advisor said, "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be delayed. It is of great importance to both you and the kingdom."
The king looked at them from his throne and then spoke.
The king said, "You know that the Death Forest is a dangerous place, and there are four powerful beasts within it. I fear this adventure could cause more problems and losses among our soldiers. However, I will allow Prince Jing to lead a group of knights to investigate what is happening within the forest."
Prince Jing said eagerly, with ambition in his eyes, "Thank you, Father. I will be happy to present the treasures I find in the forest to you. Do not worry about the beasts in the forest; they are just lowly creatures with no value compared to me. I will eliminate these trash creatures that are beneath me. We humans cannot accept these beasts breathing the same air we breathe."
The king said seriously, "I hope you find the three treasures in the forest, but you must be cautious. Even if the beasts are of lesser rank, they still possess enough strength to kill you. Therefore, you must be careful. Your journey to the Death Forest may take a month and a half. I recommend you bring plenty of supplies."
Prince Jing replied, "Understood, Father. I will do that. Your son requests permission to leave."
The king said, "Alright, everyone, you may leave."
