Chapter 184: 【Human Emperor, Earth Emperor, Heavenly Emperor】

The old man who was a passerby slowly introduced that the Princess Princess Shen Can can evolve continuously. Its first form is indeed a silkworm, golden and crystalline, feeding on Source, with a heaven-defying lifespan.

A Princess Princess Shen Can's life can undergo up to nine transformations. Each transformation is a rebirth, equivalent to a nirvana, and its strength will soar accordingly.

"If it completes nine transformations, how powerful would it be?" a young Holy Son asked curiously.

"I once heard a saying," the passerby old man said with a solemn expression, "Nine transformations are invincible across the heavens and earth; ten transformations look down upon the past, present, and future."

The crowd gasped, looking at the Princess Princess Shen Can as if it were a deity; it was actually that powerful.

Nine transformations invincible across the heavens and earth—wouldn't that be a battle strength comparable to a Great Accomplishment Saint Body, capable of challenging a Great Emperor?

If it completed ten transformations, it would likely be a Silkworm Emperor!

"Unfortunately, this is no longer the Archaic Era; there isn't such an abundant environment," the passerby old man shook his head. "In the Archaic Era, Source stones were everywhere, which could create a nine-transformation Princess Princess Shen Can. In today's world, it would be good to reach three or four transformations."

"Then wouldn't it be useless?" an old sect leader shook his head, disappointed.

"No, this creature feeds on Source and can spit out divine silk, weaving it into a Princess Princess Shen Can Cocoon, which is the purest Divine Source," the passerby old man said with burning eyes. "It has great utility."

Many sect masters suddenly realized that besides a Great Emperor who could manifest Divine Source liquid, this Princess Princess Shen Can could also do so once cultivated to a certain level, which could be used to seal their own battle strength and serve as supreme heritage.

"Young man, is this silkworm for sale?" countless people shouted, scrambling, unable to care about the duel between the Source Heaven Master and the Source Technique Grandmaster, all wanting to accumulate heritage for their own sects.

The little Princess Princess Shen Can was furious, waving its fists at the crowd, as if saying it was not for sale.

"This silkworm is not for sale, unless you bring out an intact Undying Medicine; then I might consider it."

Lin Xian stroked the little Princess Princess Shen Can and handed it a bean-sized piece of Divine Source to soothe it.

"What Undying Medicine? Young man, have you gone crazy for money?" an old antique said speechlessly. "If we had an Undying Medicine, we would have eaten it ourselves long ago."

"That is the price."

Lin Xian said calmly. The younger brother of the Divine Emperor who lived out a second life—what kind of concept was that? It was a bona fide future Great Emperor, possibly even capable of repeating the Divine Emperor's path and becoming a Heavenly Emperor.

In an instant, the scene fell silent, and waves of killing intent struck; many old monsters revealed fierce glares.

"Young man, I hope you consider this carefully."

A middle-aged man wearing golden dragon robes, a dragon crown, and surrounded by dragon aura stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "My Great Xia Dynasty wants this Princess Princess Shen Can."

The Great Xia Prince and Princess stepped forward to pay their respects, calling him Imperial Uncle.

"Imperial Uncle, is your surname Liu?" Lin Xian asked with a smile.

The Great Xia Imperial Uncle was stunned for a moment, then said proudly, "Our Great Xia ancestor was the Supreme Emperor. I take the country as my clan and Si as my surname."

The Great Xia Dynasty is of the Si surname and Xia clan.

This is an ancient inheritance; the surname indicates the origin of one's ancestors, while the clan distinguishes the branches of descendants.

As long as one is of the Supreme Emperor's bloodline, one is qualified to claim the Si surname. Within the Great Xia Dynasty, there are many commoners with thin bloodlines of the Si surname who have long since become mortals.

As for the Xia clan, they are the direct descendants of the Supreme Emperor and belong exclusively to the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Surname Si!"

Lin Xian's eyes lit up, and he spouted nonsense: "Isn't that a coincidence? My hometown once had a Si surname that established the Great Xia Dynasty. I am a descendant of Huaxia, I am Xia Xian!"

The Great Xia Imperial Uncle was stunned. What the hell was this? He went out to buy something and ran into a relative.

Could this be some distant royal descendant who ran to the Eastern Wasteland to establish an ancient kingdom, leaving behind this bloodline?

"Brother Xia, do you still remember me?"

Lin Xian smiled slightly and looked back at the Great Xia Prince, pinching out a trace of Buddhist aura—the very faith technique taught to him by the little white-robed nun that day.

"It's you!"

The Great Xia Prince's expression changed, and he hurriedly sent a divine sense message to the Great Xia Imperial Uncle, telling him that Lin Xian was the person the old ancestors were looking for.

Years ago, when he told the Great Xia Emperor about the Central Plains Immortal Mansion, he didn't take it seriously at first. But after reporting it layer by layer, it caused a huge uproar.

A Great Saint of the fifth generation of the Supreme Emperor, who had seen the Supreme Emperor's divine might with his own eyes, gave a death order to find Lin Xian. The disappearance of the ancestor without a trace had become a knot in their hearts.

How could a Great Emperor disappear so easily? Even the Void Great Emperor, who offended almost all the life forbidden zones, had legends of divine coffins buried in the Nine Heavens after his death.

But the Supreme Emperor disappeared without a trace in his later years, and he hadn't even taken an Undying Medicine, so how could he have died so easily?

No matter how heavy the injuries, taking an Undying Medicine could restore one, allowing them to live out a second life!

That wasn't just extending life; it was a direct refresh of one's state, starting all over again!

The old Great Saint who had accompanied the Supreme Emperor was obsessed with this, spending his whole life tracing the words and deeds of the Supreme Emperor in his later years, trying to find clues.

It wasn't until Lin Xian brought up the "Archaic Deity" that the old Great Saint suddenly realized.

In his later years, the Supreme Emperor once gazed at the Ziwei Emperor Star and muttered to himself: "Human Emperor, Heavenly Emperor?"

At first, the old Great Saint thought the Supreme Emperor was referring to the Three Emperors of Heaven, Earth, and Man. The Supreme Emperor rose to power with dragon aura and was number one in conquest, capable of manipulating all dragon veins in the world, so he could be considered the Emperor of the Earth.

But now it seems that the Human Emperor here is either the Taiyin Human Emperor or the Solar Holy Emperor.

The Heavenly Emperor is most likely the supreme deity of the Archaic Era, the Undying Emperor!

During the Desolate Ancient Era, most people who attained the Dao were called Great Emperors, but the Supreme Emperor didn't use "Emperor" as his title, instead calling himself "Huang" (Sovereign), clearly having origins with the Human Emperor of the Archaic Era.

Many of the Supreme Emperor's descendants didn't know this secret, but Lin Xian hinted at it, making the Great Xia Dynasty attach great importance to it.

"Please come to the Central Plains as a guest, Brother Xia, and return to your ancestors!"

The Great Xia Imperial Uncle's eyes flashed with a golden light, and his majesty as a peerless Holy Master radiated out as he looked around the crowd: "I hope everyone will make way. This is an internal matter of our Great Xia Dynasty. If you block us, don't blame the Supreme Emperor Sword for being ruthless!"

"Why go so far? Why go so far?" Mentioning the Imperial Weapon, many old monsters' expressions changed, and they took the initiative to retreat.

Lin Xian, however, smiled and said: "The Great Xia Dynasty will have to be visited sooner or later, but can we wait until this matter is over?"

He pointed to the young Source Heaven Master and the Source Technique Grandmaster who were frantically cutting stones.

The Great Xia Imperial Uncle pondered for a moment and nodded, ordering his men to prepare materials for crossing the void, intending to return to the Central Plains in one go after the matter was settled, crossing a vast domain.

This behavior made many people look sideways, secretly muttering whether Lin Xian was the illegitimate son of the Great Xia Emperor, to be so valued by the Great Xia Imperial Uncle.

Lin Xian didn't care at all, instead humming a little tune: "Monkey Brother, Monkey Brother, you are truly amazing, the Archaic Divine Source cannot suppress you, jumping out..."

In the Heaven-level Stone Garden, the two Source Technique experts went back and forth, cutting open strange stones, causing dragon veins to dance and Divine Source to explode, making the older generation look pale. Only the Princess Princess Shen Can was active among them, happily absorbing the dragon aura and Source aura that were blown away, taking advantage of the situation.

Suddenly, Ye Fan brought his knife down, cutting open an immortal tomb. An incomparable divine aura rushed out, shattering large pieces of stone skin.

Immediately after, two golden lights shot out from the stone, burning like two torches.

"No, not torches, those are two gazes!" someone exclaimed. A living creature had actually been cut from the stone.

Everyone was stunned. In the past 100,000 years, only one living creature had been cut from the Holy City—an Archaic King whose strength was unimaginably powerful, causing chaos back then that even the Holy Lands couldn't stop.

Could it be that today, the miracle was being repeated?

"Fiery eyes and golden pupils..." Ye Fan's pupils dilated, his shock no less than anyone else's. Could it be that he had really cut out a Sun Wukong!
