Chapter 16: The Human Emperor Strikes Against Heaven from the Earth

Throughout Mount Tai, everyone shouted aloud.

All the old Qin People believed that the Great Qin would last ten thousand years, and the First Emperor would last ten thousand years.

This was no longer a mere fantasy, but a fact that would come to pass.

Because under the leadership of the First Emperor, the Great Qin had already transformed into an Earthly Immortal Dynasty.

Ying Zheng looked at the Great Qin soldiers and continued to speak, "I have swept across the Six Directions and unified the world; the former six states have long since become passing clouds, and all my past opponents have been defeated at the feet of the Great Qin."

The Black Water Dragon Flag fluttered in the wind, driving the morale of the entire Great Qin army, converging into one word—Qin.

The Great Qin Iron Cavalry will always be His Majesty's sharpest sword, tearing apart all enemies for His Majesty.

Ying Zheng turned to look at the firmament, and his majestic voice continued to echo.

"But does the Great Qin have no enemies from this day forward? No, the Great Qin's enemies are hiding in the shadows; the Great Qin's enemies are stronger than ever before. It mocks my ignorance, ridicules the incompetence of my Great Qin soldiers, and directs everything from behind the scenes."

Ying Zheng's words were unprecedentedly heavy; after all, this time the Great Qin's enemy was not the six states, nor some powerful army, but—Heaven.

Between heaven and earth, clouds rolled, and thunder brewed above Mount Tai, seemingly mocking Ying Zheng's ignorance and absurdity.

And the Great Qin soldiers all brandished their weapons, their killing intent shattering the dark clouds in the sky.

"The Great Qin soldiers will sweep away all enemies for the Great Qin."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

This was the answer of the Great Qin soldiers.

The Great Qin soldiers did not know who exactly the enemy in His Majesty's mouth was.

After all, the six states had long since become the smoke of yesterday.

Looking across the world, the Great Qin no longer had any opponents.

But as long as His Majesty said there was an enemy, then there was an enemy.

The direction pointed by His Majesty's Tai'e Sword was the direction the Great Qin Iron Cavalry would charge.

Ying Zheng laughed heartily and said, "Do you see? This is my Great Qin, this is my Human Race."

With a single command, all the ancient books on Mount Tai were directly burned.

Above the firmament, dark clouds rolled, and then it suddenly began to rain, wanting to extinguish the flames.

However, it had no effect; the Human Dao Fire ignited by Ying Zheng burned these books with the momentum of the Human Dao.

These ancient books all recorded the alliances concerning the ancient times, the alliances signed between Wu Wang Ji Fa and Heaven.

It was Heaven's suppression of the Human Emperor and the Human Race.

And now, Ying Zheng was burning books and burying scholars to sever the power of the Heaven and Earth Alliance Oath.

Later historical records describe the tyranny of Qin, the burning of books and burying of scholars, and the shackling of thought.

Yet who would know the efforts Ying Zheng made for the Human Race beneath that true history?

As the Human Dao fire burned, strands of the power of the Heaven and Earth Alliance Oath were all burned to nothingness.

Within that Human Dao fire, there seemed to be endless wailing.

Burning books and burying scholars to sever the power of Heaven and Earth.

And above the firmament, the black dark clouds grew even thicker, as if they would crush heaven and earth at any moment.

A voice devoid of any emotion sounded over Mount Tai.

"Existing long and prospering, receiving the mandate from Heaven, the Son of Heaven's sovereign power is bestowed by Heaven. Ying Zheng, withdraw now, and I shall grant you the authority of the Son of Heaven."

Hearing this vast voice, the Great Qin soldiers could not help but be filled with a sense of gravity.

So, was their enemy—Heaven?

Ying Zheng, however, laughed heartily and said, "I am not the Son of Heaven; I am the Human Emperor, the Human Emperor of the Human Race."

He drew the Tai'e Sword and pointed it straight at the Blue Heaven.

"Gentlemen, today, follow me to strike against Heaven."

The Human Dao Trend rolled in, and the National Fortune of the Great Qin transformed into a Black Dragon.

Ying Zheng stood tall upon the Black Dragon, steering the Black Dragon to point straight at the Blue Heaven.

The Great Qin soldiers did not hesitate at all, steering their battle formation to strike against Heaven.

In the twentieth year of the Great Qin Empire, the First Emperor Ying Zheng led the Great Qin soldiers to strike against Heaven from the earth.

Boom—!

Above the firmament, rolling thunderclouds; this was the wrath of the Blue Heaven.

Terrifying thunder poured down; the Blue Heaven was enraged.

"Strike against Heaven? Ying Zheng, what is your reliance? Is it the powerful existence you summoned?"

After Ying Zheng joined the Heavenly Court, a supreme existence descended.

At that moment, Heaven also sensed that under normal circumstances, with such provocation from Ying Zheng, Heaven would have long since executed him.

But out of fear for the towering existence behind Ying Zheng, Heaven did not strike directly.

Yet who would have thought that after it spared Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng would actually lead the Great Qin to strike against Heaven directly.

This was undoubtedly a provocation to it.

High and mighty for thousands of years, enjoying the Humanity's Fortune, receiving the offerings of the Human Race.

In its eyes, the Human Race was always just its sacrificial offering, and only by relying on its occasional pity could the Human Race survive.

Hearing Heaven's words, Ying Zheng sneered and said, "There is no need for the Heavenly Court to act; my Great Qin Iron Cavalry can suppress and kill you on its own."

"Hahahaha, arrogant."

Above Mount Tai, the firmament roared.

"Ying Zheng, you are courting death, and I shall satisfy you. Remember, you are a sinner through the ages; the entire Human Race will be implicated by you and fall into the abyss."

A terrifying sea of thunder poured down directly, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth, striking toward Ying Zheng and the Great Qin soldiers.

This is the power of world-destruction; under such thunder, all vitality is completely severed.

Ying Zheng faces the anger of Blue Heaven, neither sad nor happy.

Human Emperor Code, Civilization Chapter, Human Dao Prosperity.

Ying Zheng raises the Human Dao Trend, the Tai'e Sword in his hand carrying Human Emperor Qi, and slashes fiercely toward the firmament above.

Boom—!

A collision that shocks the heavens and makes ghosts weep resounds above the firmament.

Ying Zheng, with the Human Emperor Dao, evolves the origin of the Human Race civilization.

Shennong tasted the hundred herbs, Fuxi evolved the Eight Trigrams, and Xuanyuan fought in all directions with blood and tears; that is the Yanhuang that belongs to us.

The Human Dao Trend is stirred by the Human Emperor Dao, and Ying Zheng directly invokes the descent of the will of the former Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Finally, it transforms into the Human Dao Sword, the magnificent Human Dao Trend, splitting the firmament, extinguishing the rolling heavenly thunder, and carving out a bright and clear world.

And behind Ying Zheng, the ancient Great Qin War Song rings out.

How can you say you have no clothes? I share my robes with you. The King raises his army, I sharpen my spears and lances! I share your hatred!

How can you say you have no clothes? I share my undergarments with you. The King raises his army, I sharpen my spears and halberds. I work alongside you!

The war song of the old Qin People resounds between heaven and earth, the heavy killing intent soaring to the clouds.

In the past, the old Qin People galloped across the Nine Provinces and Six Directions, unifying the world, accompanied by this ancient war song.

And now, the Great Qin Iron Cavalry plays this ancient war song, using humanity to strike against heaven.

The soldiers of Great Qin do not retreat at all; they all look fanatically at the figure standing before them.

As long as His Majesty is here, no matter what kind of opponent, they will all be torn to shreds by the Great Qin Iron Cavalry.

"His Majesty is mighty! Great Qin is mighty!"

"His Majesty is mighty! Great Qin is mighty!"

Do you see?

Even Blue Heaven is no match for His Majesty's imperial sword.

Blue Heaven is beyond furious; a tiny Human Race, tiny ants, actually dare to brandish a sword at it.

This is a provocation to its majesty.

"Good! Good! Good! Ying Zheng, you vainly attempt to shake heaven with the strength of an ant. Those who defy heaven deserve death."

The cold voice of Blue Heaven resounds throughout the entire territory of Great Qin.
