Chapter 753: Dragon-Binding Lock
Just as Liu Bian was deep in thought, Li Jing found him once again.
Moreover, this time, a young man was following behind him.
"Your Majesty, this is Duan Lang. He joined our Great Han Empire some time ago!"
"Furthermore, Duan Lang has contributed quite a lot in dealing with the various Jianghu factions of this world."
"I have brought him here this time because Duan Lang wishes to join my Qiongqi Legion, and I have come specifically to request Your Majesty's opinion."
Hearing this, Liu Bian turned his gaze toward Duan Lang, who was kneeling on the ground.
Liu Bian's impression of Duan Lang was actually quite good.
Duan Lang was a man with courage, brains, and, even more so, ambition.
In the original story, after obtaining the Dragon Yuan, he even became the most powerful existence.
Some even said that Duan Lang did not actually die in the end.
In the original story, Duan Lang was never favored by Xiong Ba and was even suppressed by him.
Back when the position of Hall Master was being decided, Duan Lang's strength was already greater than Bu Jingyun's.
But the position of Hall Master at that time had been specifically set up by Xiong Ba for his three disciples.
Unexpectedly, Duan Lang's strength turned out to be slightly superior to Bu Jingyun's.
To ensure his plans went off without a hitch, Xiong Ba personally sought out Duan Lang and demanded that he pretend to lose to Bu Jingyun.
At the final moment, pressured by Xiong Ba, Duan Lang intentionally lost to Bu Jingyun.
Even after being treated this way, Duan Lang did not sink into despair; instead, he worked hard to improve himself, hoping to prove his worth.
However, Xiong Ba at the time had his heart and mind set entirely on Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.
No matter how hard Duan Lang tried, he never caught Xiong Ba's eye.
The prejudices in people's hearts are like great mountains; no matter how hard Duan Lang tried, he could not gain the recognition of others.
He even ended up with the reputation of being devious and a shameless villain.
This caused Duan Lang to lose all hope, eventually leading him to turn to the dark side step by step.
However, Liu Bian had no fear of these issues regarding Duan Lang.
As long as one practiced the techniques provided by the system, no matter who you were, you would ultimately be one hundred percent loyal to Liu Bian.
After coming to his senses, Liu Bian used the Probe Eye on Duan Lang.
……
Name: Duan Lang
Age: 26
Position: None
Constitution: Fire Spirit Immortal Body
Talent: Heaven Grade Supreme
Cultivation: Martial Emperor Third Heaven
Techniques: God-Slaying Art, Shi Ri Sword Art, Duan Mai Sword Qi, Blood Fire Evil Gang
Weapons: None
Loyalty: 90
……
Seeing that Duan Lang actually had a loyalty rating of ninety, Liu Bian was extremely satisfied.
However, Duan Lang, who was kneeling on the ground, saw that Liu Bian had remained silent for a long time and suddenly became somewhat nervous.
"Duan Lang, since you wish to join the Qiongqi Legion, I grant this request!"
"In consideration of your meritorious service in this campaign, I appoint you as a General of the Qiongqi Legion, with an official rank of Fourth Grade, enjoying the Fourth Grade National Fortune power of the Great Han Empire!"
Hearing this, Duan Lang was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to thank Liu Bian.
"This humble general Duan Lang thanks Your Majesty! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this humble general will swear to serve Your Majesty to the death from now on! I swear to serve the Great Han Empire to the death and will absolutely not let Your Majesty down!"
Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction.
At this moment, the Great Han Empire's National Fortune Golden Dragon appeared and spat a blue stream of National Fortune power toward Duan Lang.
Having witnessed the power of National Fortune before, Duan Lang immediately sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.
Half a quarter-hour later, a powerful aura emanated from Duan Lang's body, and his cultivation successfully broke through one layer of heaven, reaching the Martial Emperor Fourth Heaven.
After the breakthrough, Duan Lang bowed to thank Liu Bian once more:
"This humble general thanks Your Majesty!"
Liu Bian nodded at Li Jing and Duan Lang, and the two then exited the grand tent.
After Li Jing and Duan Lang had left, Liu Bian began to ponder the matter of the Divine Dragon.
Currently, the Fire Qilin among the four great divine beasts had already been captured, leaving only the Divine Dragon still alive.
And the strength of the Divine Dragon was undoubtedly the most powerful existence in this world.
Back then, Di Shitian, in order to slay the dragon, had gathered a group of Jianghu experts and, after exhausting all their strength, managed to kill the Divine Dragon.
One must know that the people who went to participate in the dragon-slaying back then had cultivation levels far stronger than theirs currently.
And after the Divine Dragon died, Duan Lang only obtained two of the Dragon Yuans and already possessed an immortal body.
This shows just how powerful the Divine Dragon's strength was; its power had undoubtedly reached the Martial Venerable Realm.
"It is fortunate that the consciousness of the four great divine beasts was sealed; otherwise, these four alone could have ruled this world!"
"Moreover, wanting to capture the Divine Dragon alive is even harder than killing it!"
"It seems that if I want to capture the Divine Dragon alive, I will need to plan carefully!"
"I just don't know if there is anything in the system mall to deal with the Divine Dragon."
Thinking of this, Liu Bian sank his consciousness into the system mall to search for items to deal with the Divine Dragon.
Very quickly, he actually found it; in Liu Bian's hand appeared a chain-like weapon.
Dragon-Binding Lock: A Heaven-grade supreme weapon, capable of locking the cultivation of any dragon race member whose cultivation does not exceed the ninth level of the Martial Venerable Realm.
With the Dragon-Binding Lock, Liu Bian became confident.
Immediately, Liu Bian summoned Zhao Yun, Lü Bu, and Wuming.
"This humble general pays respects to Your Majesty!"
Upon seeing Liu Bian, the three bowed respectfully.
"Rise, my ministers, and be seated!"
Liu Bian waved his hand at the three and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hearing Liu Bian's words, Lü Bu and the others thanked him and sat down.
"This time, I have summoned the three of you here regarding the last divine beast, the Divine Dragon!"
"The Divine Dragon is the most powerful divine beast in this world, and I suspect its strength has already reached the Martial Venerable Realm!"
Hearing this, the expressions of Lü Bu and the others became quite grave.
However, a Divine Dragon at the Martial Venerable Realm was not something they could handle.
"Your Majesty, if this Divine Dragon truly has the strength of the Martial Venerable Realm, the three of us are no match for it!"
Lü Bu looked at Liu Bian and said with a bitter smile.
Although he had the strength to fight across levels, this was crossing an entire major realm.
Seeing Lü Bu ask, Zhao Yun and Wuming, who were on the side, also turned their gazes toward Liu Bian.
Under the gaze of the three, Liu Bian flipped his palm, and a chain-like weapon appeared in his hand.
This was precisely the Dragon-Binding Lock that Liu Bian had exchanged for from the system mall for one million National Fortune points.
Handing the Dragon-Binding Lock to Lü Bu, Liu Bian introduced it to the three:
"This is the Dragon-Binding Lock, a Heaven Grade Supreme weapon, capable of locking up dragon-race beings with cultivation below the Martial Venerable Ninth Heaven!"
"With this Dragon-Binding Lock, you now have the trump card to deal with the Divine Dragon!"
After receiving the Dragon-Binding Lock from Liu Bian's hand, expressions of excitement appeared on the faces of Lü Bu and the others.
With the Dragon-Binding Lock, they now had the foundation to deal with the Divine Dragon! ===== CHAPTER 754 =====
