"The Imperial Seal of the State?"
"Do you intend to use the defensive capabilities of the Imperial Seal to take us to the other side?"
“That’s right.” Yang Ming nodded solemnly: “You all know the function of the Imperial Seal of the State. It can easily suppress even burial sites, so it will surely protect our survival on the other side.”
"But can you activate the Imperial Seal of the State?" Fang Moli asked in a deep voice.
Yang Ming chuckled: "I couldn't before, but after obtaining the character 'Huang' (皇), I feel like I'm possessed by the Emperor, and I can wield the Imperial Seal of the State with ease!"
Everyone was overjoyed upon hearing this. They knew that although Yang Ming was usually unreliable, he would not be careless on such a crucial issue.
With the protection of the Imperial Seal, they could indeed survive safely on the other side, much like having a refuge at any time in a post-apocalyptic world. They could even hide in the protective range of the Imperial Seal if they encountered monsters they couldn't defeat.
With the strength of the Imperial Seal, even if Yang Ming cannot unleash its full power, it can still defend against all the strange phenomena under the influence of the God of Deception.
"I have a question. Will taking away the Imperial Seal have any impact on Wanlilong City?" Fang Moli asked again. Having served as the captain for two years, he had indeed given it more thought than before.
“No, the Xia Kingdom mainly relies on the protection of Wanli Longcheng. The role of the Imperial Seal was merely to help Wanli Longcheng form a unified consciousness. You can think of the Imperial Seal as the brain and Wanli Longcheng as the body. As long as I use the Imperial Seal to issue an instruction to the body to operate autonomously before leaving, leaving an imprint, it will not affect Wanli Longcheng,” Yang Ming explained.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go find Brother Xiu!" Xiao Chuxia's face was full of excitement. She couldn't wait to set off to find Fang Xiu. She couldn't live a single day without Fang Xiu.
Faced with Yang Ming's explanation, Fang Moli did not object anymore, but he was still worried. He preferred that the four sixth-level beings go instead of everyone going together.
At this moment, the minister, who had been observing from the sidelines, suddenly spoke up: "Go, all of you go and find Fang Xiu. He is a hero of the Xia Kingdom, and we should not let a hero fight alone."
The minister's words had a decisive effect, and everyone nodded solemnly.
Three days later, after Yang Ming and his companions had made all the necessary preparations, they left the Xia Kingdom with the Xuanyuan Sword and the Imperial Seal, embarking on a journey to find the prophet.
As for the prophet...
Fang Xiu sat alone in front of his stall, ignored by everyone.
It's just that his demeanor, both inside and out, doesn't resemble that of a fortune teller, but rather that of a scholar.
He realized he couldn't go on like this, so he took out the moon wheel and committed suicide in front of the shocked gazes of passersby.
Because he had wasted several days without getting any customers, he chose to rewind and return to the moment he first set up his stall in order to make up for the wasted time.
........
........
Fang Xiu sat in front of his stall like a statue, pondering how to attract customers.
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Once he makes a name for himself, people will come to him for fortune telling in droves, including some strong individuals. But right now, no one is coming to him to make a name for himself.
After a moment's thought, he decided to use the methods of modern merchants to create a huge gimmick similar to a subsidy of 10 billion yuan.
So he took out a top-grade immortal artifact, the Seven Star Dragon-Trapping Sword, from his Netherworld Ring. This sword was a gift from the Void Moon Palace.
Snap!
He slammed the top-grade immortal artifact, the Seven-Star Dragon-Trapping Sword, onto the table. In an instant, a dazzling immortal light shot into the sky, like a pillar of light reaching the heavens and straight to the clouds.
The powerful aura unique to top-grade immortal artifacts spread out like a tide.
Centered on Fang Xiu, everyone within a radius of a thousand miles was drawn to this powerful precious light.
"This...this light...it's a top-grade immortal artifact! And it's an unclaimed top-grade immortal artifact!"
"Could it be that a celestial artifact has just been forged?"
"Let's go take a look. I've never seen a top-grade immortal artifact in my life. This is a top-grade immortal artifact! It's a treasure that only a great figure at the Immortal Emperor level is qualified to possess!"
Countless people were drawn by the light of the supreme immortal artifact, swarming over like sharks smelling blood.
It's like hearing a supercar making a loud noise on the street; whether you care or not, you'll subconsciously turn around to see what kind of supercar it is.
Soon, more and more people rushed towards Fang Xiu's direction, but when they arrived, they were slightly stunned.
A fortune teller? And a top-grade celestial artifact on his stall? What kind of combination is this?
Fang Xiu sat calmly in front of the stall, closing his eyes to rest.
The Seven Star Dragon-Trapping Sword, radiating divine light, lay quietly on the table, allowing the gazes of various immortals to peer upon it.
Everyone was completely baffled, having no idea what the fortune teller was up to. However, some ill-intentioned individuals had already set their sights on Fang Xiu.
They discovered that Fang Xiu was only at the sixth level, meaning he had just become an immortal. Yet, with such a low level of cultivation, he dared to openly display a top-grade immortal artifact. This was no different from a child carrying gold in a bustling marketplace.
A top-grade immortal artifact is enough to tempt even an immortal emperor; as the saying goes, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."
If it weren't for the prohibition against using force within the Flowing Cloud Immortal City, someone would probably have already made a move.
Finally, someone couldn't hold back any longer. It was a man with a burly build, as tall as an iron tower. His muscles made his clothes bulge, as if they were about to burst open at any moment. A fierce and wild aura emanated from him, like an ancient beast that had just been released from its cage.
He strode forward, his aura of menace and the imposing presence of a celestial lord causing everyone to make way for him.
“Fellow Daoist, I am Immortal Lord Nan'e. I was drawn here by the light of the immortal artifact and, out of curiosity, came to ask you a question.”
Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord bowed slightly. Although he was an Immortal Lord and did not think much of Fang Xiu, who had just become an immortal, he dared not be arrogant before he found out the truth about Fang Xiu's background, considering that the other party was able to produce a top-grade immortal artifact.
"The Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord?! The Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord of Divine Crocodile Valley? No wonder he exudes a fierce aura."
"It is said that this person once fought against three Immortal Lords without being defeated, and even tore one of them apart and seriously injured two others. His combat power can be described as invincible among those of the same level."
Hearing the exclamations of the crowd, Immortal Lord Nan E felt a slight sense of pride. Fighting three against one was the battle he was most proud of in his life, and now that it was being mentioned, it was like scratching an itch. However, when he saw the fortune teller in front of him still with his eyes closed, he couldn't help but frown.
"Fellow Daoist?"
Suddenly, Fang Xiu opened his eyes, and a pair of calm and confident eyes came into view, which made everyone secretly marvel.
That confident aura, as if one has everything under control, is not something that ordinary people can possess.
He looked at Immortal Lord Nan'e and said calmly, "If you set up a fortune-telling stall and your prediction is wrong, you'll be compensated with a top-grade immortal artifact."
Upon hearing this, not only the Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord, but everyone present was stunned, as if they could not believe their ears.
