Under One Person: My Inner Realm Connects to All Worlds!

Chapter 180 A Horse's Will Is Hard to Tame
Since Emperor Wu of Han welcomed back the Heavenly Horses from Wowa Pond and opened up the prefectures of Hexi, Liangzhou has always been a place where fine horses are produced. During the Zhenguan era, the horse administration in Longyou was prosperous, with eight workshops and forty-eight supervisory offices, which were extremely large in scale.

The horses produced here are known as celestial horses!

It has a dragon's head and bird's eyes, a unicorn's belly and a tiger's chest. Its tail is like a snowy comet, and its ears are like tubes. It possesses the appearance of a black dragon and the agility of a spirit serpent. It has the physique of a waist-wrapped creature and the speed of a flying rabbit. It combines the beauty of a fine steed and the gait of a swift horse.

Of course, the most famous "horse" here now is the Flying Horse of Gansu, which came from the Leitai Han Tomb.

However, unlike the real world, the bronze galloping horse exhibited at the Sanlong Earth Museum is actually fake.

The real bronze galloping horse has actually been sealed away by Na Du Tong and placed in a local branch of Na Du Tong in Liangzhou.

As for why it was sealed away, the reason is simple: over the long years, this bronze galloping horse has developed a spiritual nature and has become a spirit.

Before coming, Han Yun had already spoken to Zhao Fangxu, wanting to see this pegasus spirit, and Zhao Fangxu had agreed.

After all, Han Yun already possessed five dragon spirits, so compared to them, the spirit of the bronze galloping horse was insignificant, at most it could be considered an object that had become a spirit.

Although rare, in the eyes of some shamans, they are far less powerful than real demons that have become spirits, and their potential is also limited.

Its value as a cultural relic is greater than that of the spirit itself.

But you absolutely cannot hurt it, because the elf and the bronze galloping horse are one entity; if you harm the elf, its body will also be harmed.

Therefore, the employees of Liangzhou Nadutong branch could only treat this "little tyrant" well, which fostered its willful and lawless nature.

It's common for things like stepping on an employee's bowl in the cafeteria, kicking you back when you get up to use the restroom, or entering your dreams to scare you while you're sleeping.

It can be described as extremely unruly, even more troublesome than Sun Wukong.

The head of the Liangzhou branch of Nadutong was surnamed Ma and named Ma Debao. He was a dark-skinned, stocky middle-aged man whose ancestors had been dealing with horses for generations. He also always carried a unique smell of stables and hay that he could not wash off.

He received a notification from headquarters and waited at the entrance early. When he saw Han Yun, a complex smile appeared on his face, a mixture of awe and distress.

"Chairman Han, you've finally arrived."

Ma Debao rubbed his hands together and led Han Yun inside. "That little rascal... sigh, he's been particularly noisy today. He's been kicking all the surveillance cameras since this morning, and right now he's in the warehouse kicking the cameras around like balls. None of us dare to come near him."

Han Yun nodded calmly: "Take me to see."

After passing through several heavily guarded security gates, the air gradually became dry and cool, and finally they stopped in front of a heavy alloy door.

The door was covered with restrictive runes made of cinnabar mixed with special materials, and it was now flickering with an uneasy light. A crisp "click-click" sound came from inside the door, interspersed with the soft "crackling" sound of an electric short circuit and the employees' hushed exclamations.

Ma Debao swallowed hard, carefully swiped his access card, and then went through iris and Qi verification before the door silently slid open.

The warehouse was brightly lit, but in complete disarray. Cables were tangled and scattered, and several workers huddled behind riot shields, looking helpless.

After all, they also wanted to beat the other party up, but they really didn't dare to do it. They couldn't afford to cause even the slightest bump or scratch!
In the center of the arena, a bronze horse, about half the height of a person, stood upright, supported by only one hind hoof, while the other hoof skillfully played with the surveillance camera. Its entire body was covered in greenish-blue patina, but its expression was lifelike. Its dragon-like head was slightly raised, and its bird-like eyes were bright and piercing, revealing an indescribable liveliness and... cunning.

It is the very real bronze galloping horse that is famous!

Most remarkably, it was also faintly radiating thunderous energy. This thunderous energy was controlled by the bronze galloping horse, transforming into a mysterious magnetic force that allowed it to float and gallop at lightning speed.

Seemingly sensing someone entering, the bronze galloping horse paused, and the monitor was crushed under its foot with a "crack".

It turned its head, and its pair of hollow yet seemingly alive bronze eyes "stared" at Han Yun's unfamiliar face.

"Xilulu——!"

A sharp shriek, not transmitted through the air but resounding directly into the depths of everyone's souls, suddenly exploded, carrying a hint of provocation, curiosity, and dissatisfaction at having their playful mood disrupted.

Several staff members turned pale and instinctively shrank back.

Ma Debao forced himself to step forward, forcing a smile: "Tianma, this is Director Han from headquarters, he came specifically to see you..."

Before he could finish speaking, the bronze galloping horse suddenly lowered its head and then raised it. The invisible Qi in the air gathered and condensed into a semi-transparent "pebble," which slammed into Ma Debao's forehead with a whoosh!
"Ouch!"

Ma Debao couldn't dodge in time, and a red mark immediately appeared on his forehead.

The bronze galloping horse's four hooves pawed at the metal floor, making a screeching sound, and it assumed a charging stance, its target Han Yun.

The mottled patina on its surface shimmered faintly under the light, crackling and sparkling into dazzling arcs of electricity. Thunderous energy spread out, causing the metal objects in the warehouse to tremble and ring slightly.

Ma Debao and his employees were terrified.

This "little rascal" may be mischievous at times, but this is the first time he has ever taken the initiative to gather Qi and attack, showing a charging posture like today!
Han Yun remained standing still, his expression unchanged. Just as the bronze galloping horse was poised to strike, about to transform into a bolt of bronze lightning and crash down upon him...

"Roar--"

A deep, ancient dragon's roar echoed through the warehouse without warning.

The dragon's roar was extremely soft, yet it carried supreme majesty and weight, instantly overwhelming all the metallic vibrations and drowning out the restless spiritual fluctuations of the bronze galloping horse.

The air around Han Yun seemed to distort slightly, and five enormous dragon-shaped phantoms of different forms, invisible to ordinary people, flashed past behind him.

That was a wisp of aura from the earth's vein dragon spirit, the ultimate embodiment of power, auspiciousness, and status; it could also be seen as the ancestor of elves!
There is a hierarchy among elves similar to that among animal groups, where the strong naturally rule over the weak, and the weak inevitably submit to the strong.

The bronze galloping horse, which had been charging forward, suddenly froze.

Its raised hoof was still suspended in mid-air, but its dragon-like head lowered slightly, and the spiritual fire that had been leaping in its eye sockets clearly contracted, revealing a kind of surprise and uncertainty from the depths of its instincts.

Oh no, I've run into someone I can't mess with!
