In fact, these players guessed correctly, and there is another big news later.
But this big news hasn’t happened yet.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon on March 3, a mountain called "Shenmulei" was located 135 kilometers due west of Chengdu.
This mountain peak named "Shenmulei" used to be a scenic spot.
However, due to the invasion of Skrull, this scenic spot was suspended in June last year, and now it is very desolate and overgrown with weeds.
Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang walked slowly in the mountains, carefully observing the plants and trees around them.
Walking in front of the two people was a white wolf that was larger than an adult bull. It was Xiaotian's first pet - the Howling Moon Wolf Dabai.
Dabai walked in front, his nose kept sniffing on the ground, very focused.
…
Xiaotian also returned to Blue Star three days ago, and her return time was about 5 hours later than Su Yu and others.
On the planet Skrull, her visit to the Rhinoceros Tribe went very smoothly.
The Rhinoceros are a reclusive, neutral race that has basically no interaction with the Skrulls, and their relationship cannot be said to be good or bad.
During the visit to the Rhinoceros Clan, Xiaotian revealed some of the deal with the Bald Eagle Clan to them, and showed them several finished pieces of equipment sold to the Bald Eagle Clan.
After all, Xiaotian came here not just for a visit, but selling equipment was her real purpose.
Seeing that these equipment can be freely retracted into the body, this immediately aroused great interest in the Rhinoceros Clan!
The Rhinoceros are huge, with ordinary members weighing 3-5 tons. The reasons why they did not wear equipment before were basically the same as the Dragons - first, they were not used to it; second, it was troublesome to carry the equipment.
Now I see that the equipment created by Blue Star humans can be freely stored in the body! No ethnic group can resist such a temptation!
Therefore, the leader of the Rhinoceros Clan placed a large order on the spot and gave Xiaotian a large amount of high-end materials as a deposit.
In the afternoon of that day, Xiaotian returned to Blue Star smoothly with a full collection of space rings.
…
After returning to Blue Star, Xiaotian had no intention of taking a rest.
She first handed over the high-end materials to Sledgehammer 80, and explained to the craftsmen in detail the requirements of the Rhinoceros Tribe for various aspects of equipment.
Then, she asked Su Yu to help her open the portal, and came to Rongcheng to join senior Wang Mang and continue to search for traces of the First Emperor.
…
Senior Wang Mang has also done a lot in recent days.
Although Xiaotian was not here, he used his own experience and ancient documents to finally determine the place of "Shenmu Barrier".
As they walked, the old man explained to Xiaotian: "According to my speculation and preview of the hexagrams, the place 'Shenmule' is most likely to be the hiding place of the First Emperor. I hope we can gain something here."
"I also hope that the First Emperor can be here." Xiaotian nodded.
Then, she took out a shiny golden dice from her backpack and held it carefully in her palm.
She introduced to Senior Wang Mang: "This is the [Destiny Dice] that Su Yu gave me three days ago. It can accurately measure our current luck. Let's use it and see how our current luck is."
"Okay, come on." Senior Wang Mang did not object and stood sideways.
"Huh--" Xiaotian breathed out.
She flicked the dice in her hand.
The dice drew a golden parabola in the air and finally landed on the ground not far ahead.
The fate dice rolled on the ground a few times and then stopped completely, with one side facing up.
Looking intently at the top of the dice, a smile immediately appeared on Xiaotian's face: "It's '6'! Senior Wang Mang, it seems that our operation will go smoothly this time!"
"Is that so?" Senior Wang Mang didn't know the meaning of the numbers, but he nodded and looked around: "If you say so, then the First Emperor should be in this mountain?"
As soon as Senior Wang Mang finished speaking, Dabai's body of Xiao Yue Lang, who was walking directly in front of them, suddenly froze and became motionless.
Immediately afterwards, Dabai let out a hurried cry of "Ouch!" and then ran towards a mountain col on the left front as fast as possible.
In the past three days, seniors Xiaotian and Wang Mang have provided Dabai with a lot of "special training."
The so-called "special training" is for the spirit-shielding stone.
Senior Wang Mang had more than a dozen spirit-shielding stones in his hands, while the First Emperor had at least hundreds of thousands of spirit-shielding stones.
The reason why the Blue Star monks could not find the First Emperor was because these hundreds of thousands of spiritual shielding stones completely blocked all the spiritual energy fluctuations produced by the First Emperor's hiding place.
In the past three days, Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang have been letting Xiaoyuelang Dabai familiarize himself with the smell of the spirit shielding stone, and then letting Dabai use his sense of smell to find the spirit shielding stone.
As long as they can find a large number of spiritual shielding stones, it means they have found the hiding place of the First Emperor.
Seeing Howling Moon Wolf Dabai suddenly start running fast, Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang were immediately overjoyed!
Dabai must have found the existence of the spirit-shielding stone!
Although Dabai cannot speak, he continues to use his mental power to send messages to his owner Xiaotian, which means that he smells the smell of "Lingshishi", and there are many different smells of "Lingshishi".
Xiaotian translated and conveyed this message to senior Wang Mang, and the two of them were even more happy.
Combined with the [Destiny Dice], they may have found the location of the First Emperor!
…
Xiaoyuelang Dabai led the two of them to run for three or four kilometers in a row, and finally stopped in a mountain col.
"Ouch~" After arriving at the place, Dabai looked around in confusion, looking a little confused.
Through its sense of smell, it could smell the smell of many messy "spirit-shielding stones" around it. But when it looked forward, it did not see any "spirit-shielding stones". The scenery in front of it was no different from an ordinary valley.
What's going on? Is there something wrong with its sense of smell?
Fortunately, senior Wang Mang followed closely behind it.
Arriving at this place, senior Wang Mang could see at a glance that this place was unusual.
He said seriously to Xiaotian: "If my prediction is correct, this is an illusion, and what is covered by the illusion is the hiding place of the First Emperor.
This location should be an entrance, but this may be just one of the entrances, and there may be other entrances around it."
Xiaotian asked: "Senior, what should we do?"
She also has some experience in exploring the secret realm on the planet Skrull, because the secret realm is very similar to the dungeon in the "Evolution" game.
But there was nothing she could do about a place like "The First Emperor's Hideout" that was dedicated to cultivating immortals. She could only listen to the opinions of senior Wang Mang.
"Leave this to me." Senior Wang Mang stepped forward slowly. Xiaoyuelang Dabai saw him coming, and stood aside with a look, sticking out his tongue and looking at him.
Senior Wang Mang stood where Xiaoyuelang Dabai had just stood, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "%@%#..."
What he said was a series of ancient Chinese words that Xiaotian couldn't understand at all.
However, based on mere speculation, Xiaotian felt that senior Wang Mang should be reporting his family status.
After senior Wang Mang finished speaking, he fired a line of light green psychic energy directly forward.
The spiritual energy whirled in the air and then disappeared.
After about 5 seconds, a ripple-like fluctuation suddenly appeared in the space in front of the two people. Then, a pitch black door about three meters wide appeared in front of the two people.
Seeing the door that suddenly appeared, Xiaotian's eyes immediately lit up!
It seems they have found the right place!
Senior Wang Mang's expression did not change much.
He walked forward calmly and knocked on the door more than a dozen times in a special rhythm.
Finally, when he knocked on the 15th time, the two pitch black doors opened with a "squeak~" sound.
"Let's go in." Senior Wang Mang turned around and said to Xiaotian, and then took the lead to walk into the door.
"Okay... okay." Xiaotian quickly put Howling Moon Wolf Dabai into the pet space, and then followed in the footsteps of senior Wang Mang.
After all, it was the First Emperor who was going to see him. Bringing a pet in with him might be considered disrespectful by the First Emperor. To be on the safe side, she put Xiaoyuelang Dabai away.
…
…
After stepping into the dark double doors, the scenery in front of you changed and suddenly became bright!
Now Xiaotian and senior Wang Mang are no longer in that very ordinary mountain col, but standing at the foot of a towering fairy mountain.
This fairy mountain is very tall and straight, with its peak reaching straight into the sky.
The reason why it is called "Fairy Mountain" is mainly because the peak is covered with all kinds of fairy-like ancient pines, and cranes can be vaguely seen flying. It is not an exaggeration to say it is a "Fairy Mountain".
Now in front of them is a zigzag staircase, along which you can go all the way up the mountain.
There is a magnificent hall halfway up the mountain. In front of the hall stands a huge black stone tablet.
Beyond that, there's almost nothing else you can see from their perspective.
"Come on, let's go up and have a look." Senior Wang Mang climbed up the stairs without showing any nervousness.
Xiaotian immediately followed him and looked around cautiously.
Although this secret-like place seems quite safe, in tomb-robbing novels, ancient emperors’ tombs often hide some hidden weapons to deal with future tomb-robbers, so it’s better to be careful.
…
However, Xiaotian's vigilance was obviously overly worrying.
They went all the way up and arrived at the mountainside hall, under the pitch black stone monument.
Xiaotian raised his head and looked at this huge black stone tablet, which was 5 meters wide and more than ten meters high. It was filled with small characters the size of a fingernail filled with gold paint.
The font used for these small characters is official script, so Xiao Tianda can understand most of them. Even if he can't understand, he can guess it based on the context.
Senior Wang Mang certainly feels less stressed when reading these words.
Just like that, the two people stood in front of the stone tablet and patiently read the words on it.
…
Before I knew it, half an hour had passed.
Senior Wang Mang read the words on the stone tablet before Xiaotian, touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Xiaotian also barely read the text description on the tablet.
After reading it, she immediately clarified many questions. For example, "Where is the First Emperor?", "Why did the First Emperor build a hiding place here", "Why did the First Emperor want to confiscate all the 'spiritual shielding stones' in the world", etc.
.
To answer this question, we have to start with the First Emperor's unification of the six kingdoms.
More than 2,300 years ago, the First Emperor successively defeated the vassal states of Yan, Qi, Chu, Zhao, Wei, and Han, unified the country, ended a century of separatist wars, and achieved the throne.
His own strength also continued to accumulate in the process of unifying Liuhe, and finally broke through to the peak of Mahayana (the peak of the divine level) and became one of the strongest beings in Blue Star.
But after unifying the country, the First Emperor suddenly lost his goal.
The country is unified and there are almost no enemies within the four seas.
The southeast of the dynasty was a vast ocean, and the northwest was a barren land with no value to occupy. Even if it was valuable, it could not be occupied with the manpower at that time.
As for strength, reaching the pinnacle of Mahayana is already the upper limit of Blue Star. If you want to break through to the planetary level, all the resources of Blue Star combined are far from enough, and it is simply impossible.
As for letting his descendants continue to rule the country for thousands of years? Sorry, he has no such interest.
Therefore, the First Emperor fell into confusion.
But in the fifth year of his reign, one day he woke up from his dream and suddenly came up with a brilliant idea - the world is so big, he wanted to see it!
Of course, this world does not refer to the Blue Star, but the vast and boundless universe outside.
There are 100 billion planets in the Milky Way alone, and the Galactic Galaxy next door has a trillion stars!
Such a vast world must be so colorful!
The First Emperor had a strong desire to "go out and see".
But soon a problem arose - he couldn't get out.
King Xin of Shang Zhou once left Blue Star, but he met an interstellar traveler by chance. With the help of that interstellar traveler, he successfully left Blue Star.
The First Emperor did not meet any interstellar travelers. To be honest, he had never seen any aliens.
Without the help of aliens, his own strength is simply not enough to leave the solar system.
As a result, the First Emperor fell into depression.
In desperation, he could only wait and hope that aliens would visit Blue Star again and take him away.
This wait is 32 years.
During these 32 years, the First Emperor had been looking forward to the arrival of alien visitors, but unfortunately, he did not even see the alien hair.
And during the long wait, his patience was completely exhausted.
After repeated thinking, he decided not to wait foolishly for the aliens, but to adopt a stupid method.
This method is - time travel!
He wants to travel to the future, to an era where Blue Star has integrated with the civilization of the universe.
According to his estimate, it would take at least 100,000 years for humans on Blue Star to develop to the level of interstellar communication. (Dinosaurs ruled Blue Star for about 100 million years, and 100,000 years is really not that long.)
However, the lifespan of a peak god-level expert is only 3,000 years at most, and he will definitely not survive that time in a normal life.
So, he built this hiding place and sealed his body. Every cell and molecule in his body stopped moving under the restraint of spiritual energy and entered a state of complete dormancy.
After entering a complete dormant state, his lifespan will be greatly increased, and it is no problem to live for 100,000 years or even a million years.
This is also called "traveling".
This is a bit like some rich people in modern times who freeze their whole bodies in the hope that they will be thawed and resurrected one day.
With this stupid method, the First Emperor could successfully "travel" to the future world, and then use the technology of the future world to travel to the universe.
