Chapter 53: The Eternal Emperor: I Am the One and Only Qin Shi Huang (7/8, Requesting Flowers and Ratings)
The Eternal Emperor: "I am Ying Zheng!"
Ying Zheng: "But you can't change your name!"
The Eternal Emperor: "..."
Yukinoshita Yukino: "You're from another world? Can you prove it?"
Kasugayama Shiho: "How amazing—I never thought I'd encounter something so extraordinary."
Yotsuya Miko: "Proof? You can buy something from Shangcheng."
Yukinoshita Yukino: "One hundred taels of gold for one point!? So expensive!"
Kasugayama Shiho: "Yeah, we can't afford it."
Even as a light novel writer, she simply couldn't afford it.
One point equals over thirty million yen—where would she get that much money!
The Eternal Emperor: "Expensive? I possess the wealth of all four seas!"
Inside Xianyanggong, Ying Zheng felt pride swell within him.
From hostage to unifier of all under heaven, he ended centuries of chaos.
Ying Zheng naturally felt proud.
As emperor, he naturally had no lack of gold.
【Ding, Tianwen Sword: 10 points. Sell?】
"So cheap?"
He took out more treasures.
【Ding, you sold Basic Sword Technique: 2 points.】
【Ding, you sold a Pearl: 2 points!】
Seeing these prompts, Ying Zheng was stunned.
Which of these could be anything but a rare wonder of the world?
Now they were priced absurdly low.
"Am I really poor?!!"
Filled with resentment, he marched straight to the imperial treasury.
This was where he stored the treasures of all under heaven—he refused to believe he had nothing left.
【Ding, you sold the Suihou Pearl: gained 1000 points.】
【Ding, you sold ten thousand jin of celestial black iron: gained 1500 points.】
【Ding, you sold Earthfire Essence Gold: gained 500 points.】
After accumulating three thousand points, Ying Zheng finally stopped.
"Looks like I'm still quite wealthy."
He opened the chat group.
The Eternal Emperor: "I wish to buy something—any recommendations?"
Su Xiao: "Well, most items in the store are sold by Brother Zhang—he knows best. @Zhang Taixuan"
The Eternal Emperor: "All sold by one person?!"
Zhang Taixuan: "Correct, it's me. If I'm not mistaken, your world has Yin-Yang arts, right?"
The Eternal Emperor: "Your Immortal's words are correct."
Zhang Taixuan: "Then exchange for Dragon God Art + Bone Cleansing Elixir, Purple Yang Elixir—first cultivate to the Land Immortal realm."
The Eternal Emperor: "Land Immortal realm?"
Su Xiao: "Land Immortal realm—can crush mountains and sever rivers, lifespan six hundred years. You won't be cheated. Far better than seeking alchemists for elixirs of immortality."
Ying Zheng: "Foolish—still chasing elixirs of immortality? Fooled by alchemists!"
The Eternal Emperor: "Hmph, if I'm not mistaken, you'd have sought alchemists too if you hadn't joined here. I'm foolish? You're no better!"
Su Xiao: "Haha, the First Emperor's looking in the mirror!"
Ying Zheng: "..."
The Eternal Emperor: "Thank you, Immortal, for the advice—I'll begin cultivating now."
Ying Zheng exited the chat room, gave an order, and went straight to the deepest part of the palace to exchange for what he wanted.
Following Zhang Taixuan's instructions, Ying Zheng first swallowed the Bone Cleansing Elixir.
As the elixir entered his belly, a gentle power flowed through his entire body; in an instant, his strength reached a new height.
His mind also became sharply agile, like a rusty machine oiled—its speed multiplied manyfold.
"Excellent elixir!"
When the elixir's effect faded, he turned to the Dragon God Art.
The Dragon God Art had once been profoundly obscure—even with annotations, he couldn't comprehend it in a moment.
Now, it seemed vastly simpler; he grew even more attentive to Shangcheng's elixirs.
The elixirs forged by alchemists paled in comparison—mere trash.
After mastering the Dragon God Art, Ying Zheng immediately swallowed the Purple Yang Elixir.
Boom—
His original Primordial realm power surged rapidly upward.
Master—Grand Master—Heavenly Person—Land Immortal!
In merely half a day, Ying Zheng's strength underwent a revolutionary transformation.
Roar!
At noon, the blazing sun hung high in the sky.
Suddenly, a beast's roar rang out. The next moment, a golden dragon several zhang long shot up into the heavens, circling and drifting through the clouds for a while before finally descending into the imperial palace.
As Ying Zheng's bodyguard, Gai Nie stood watch over him at all times.
Seeing the divine dragon transform into Ying Zheng, he was utterly stunned.
To take on a dragon's form and fly across the heavens—what a magnificent power this was.
As a disciple of the Ghost Valley sect, even he could not quite make sense of it.
Where under heaven could such a divine art exist?
Though curious in his heart, he did not dare to ask.
After all, Ying Zheng was the Son of Heaven.
This was not something he should ask about.
At the same time.
Xianyang City, too, was thrown into an uproar.
The various anti-Qin forces were dumbfounded, filled with unwillingness.
"A golden dragon circled Xianyanggong—could it be that Ying Zheng has Heaven's aid?"
Yet the common folk of Xianyang felt genuine pride, and outside Xianyanggong they knelt in a great swath.
"Your Majesty's divine might!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
He steadied himself and returned to the chat group.
The One Emperor of All Ages: "I have already reached the Land Immortal realm!"
Yukinoshita Yukino: "That fast?!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Too bad I can't afford a single one of them!"
The One Emperor of All Ages: "The elixir refined by the Upper Immortal is simply too miraculous—I refined it in an instant. I had only just cultivated the Dragon God Art and flown a lap above Xianyang, and it felt utterly exhilarating. 【Image】"
Ying Zheng: "Your world should be a higher-tier one, racking up that many points in one go. Unlike my world—it's far too miserable!"
The One Emperor of All Ages: "How about you change your name, and I'll give you a thousand points?"
Ying Zheng: "Dream on. I am the one and only Qin Shi Huang. 【Image】 I've found the recipe for the Longevity Pill—I'll never be poor again!"
The One Emperor of All Ages: "You…"
