Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 238 Do I fear the gods?

The starting bid for the Sun God Chariot was 300,000 jin of pure energy, roughly the same as the final price of a Holy Lord's weapon.

It is clear that the Ancient Chinese Dynasty also knew that this chariot was probably really useless, and the main reason for putting it up for auction later was because of the hype surrounding the King's Chariot.

After this mega auction ends, with some hype and marketing, a few years later they can easily say that Guhua Baoque once auctioned a legendary weapon, adding to their prestige.

The annals of history, begin!
"Four hundred thousand catties of pure ore," Qin Sheng quoted.

"Half a million!"

To his surprise, someone immediately followed suit, and seemed determined to win.

Why would anyone steal this kind of scrap?

People of Zhongzhou, you must be starving.

"Six hundred thousand." Qin Sheng countered the price; he didn't seem to care about this kind of competition.

At an auction, anyone with money can bid, so there's no question of personal grudges.

"Seven hundred thousand!"

"Eight hundred thousand."

After Qin Sheng made another bid, his competitor spoke up:
"Friend, this chariot is difficult to repair. You should think carefully before bidding."

"I am He Wenfa. Why not give me some face? You will gain the friendship of the Yin-Yang Sect, and our sect's doors will always be open for you."

Hmm? The Yin-Yang Cult?
Qin Sheng perked up; it was double happiness!

He Wenfa is very famous; many people recognize him as soon as his name is mentioned.

"It turns out to be He Wenfa, the vice leader of the Yin-Yang Sect. It is said that he was chosen by Wang Yangzhan to be the next leader of the Yin-Yang Sect."

“That position should have originally belonged to his older brother, He Wendao. The He brothers were two heroes in one family. What a pity.”

"I just came out of seclusion and there are some things I don't understand. He asked what's wrong?"

"He died in the Eastern Wilderness, killed by the Eastern Immortal."

Upon hearing these words, Qin Sheng raised an eyebrow. So he was He Wendao's younger brother? That made all the more coincidental. He then said:
"Film if you have a source, get lost if you don't. If you want to beg, go back to your Yin-Yang Sect."

You want to save face, and so does he. Am I a wholesaler of face-saving products?

If you don't have money, then get lost. Are you waiting to be treated to a meal?
The auction fell silent; no one had expected Qin Sheng's response to be so forceful.

When Qin Sheng appeared to observe the Sun Chariot, many people noticed that he was a half-step Great Power.

Could there really be such a brave and valiant person in the world?
"Fine, very well. I wonder where you are from, daring to be so arrogant." He Wenfa laughed angrily.

"I will not change my name or surname. My name is Ye Zhetian. I am half a Northern Plains person and half a Southern Ridge person."

"Fellow Daoist Ye, what a spirit!"

He Wenfa said one last thing, and then fell silent.

In Zhongzhou, no one has ever dared to humiliate my Yin Yang Sect like this. This barbarian, a mixed-race man from the Northern Plains and Southern Ridge, truly doesn't know his own limitations.

Neither the Northern Plains nor the Southern Ridge possessed imperial weapons, so the Yin-Yang Sect feared no force in either region. Today, I, the deputy sect leader, will tell you a truth.

In Zhongzhou, who really calls the shots?
No one else made a bid after that, and Qin Sheng won the Sun God Chariot with 800,000 jin of resources.

"I suffered a small loss, but it's okay, I'll make it back in a bit."

Qin Sheng had no interest in the last item. After the auction ended, he paid Yuan and took the Dragon Marrow and the Sun Chariot from the Ancient Hua Treasure Palace.

"As expected, he possesses the divine bones of the Holy Golden Crow." Qin Sheng thought with joy.

The Daoist essence is immortal, but the divine object conceals itself. It was sold for 800,000. When the Ancient Hua Dynasty found out, they would be spitting blood, enough to fill an entire Hengyu Furnace.

After leaving the Ancient Hua Divine Palace, Qin Sheng made no attempt to hide himself and walked out of the Ancient Divine City openly, completely unaware that he was being watched.

Someone noticed this scene, shook their head, and looked on with pity.

"How pitiful, another person will lose their life here today because of treasure and a moment of impulsiveness."

The fights and killings that result from super auctions are so common that no one is surprised.

He Wenfa appeared to be a young man. He and two other people followed Qin Sheng at a distance, their eyes cold.

"A half-step Great Power dares to defy my Yin Yang Sect? He truly doesn't know his own death."

He Wenfa's heart surged with murderous intent. "Do you think Zhongzhou is a desolate place like Beiyuan?"

After leaving the ancient city of gods, Qin Sheng fled at the speed befitting his cultivation level, with He Wenfa and his men in hot pursuit.

Qin Sheng stopped in the wilderness and turned to look at He Wenfa and the other two.

"Hurry up and come over, don't waste my time," Qin Sheng urged.

He Wenfa was taken aback. So eager to die?

"I don't care who you are. If you offend my Yin Yang Sect in Zhongzhou, you will have no way to survive, whether you go to heaven or hell." He Wenfa sneered.

"Now, die..."

As he spoke, Qin Sheng reverted to his original appearance. The Yin-Yang Sect's vice leader abruptly stopped speaking, his expression changing drastically, as if he had just eaten a dead child.

"Dong, Dongxian?!"

People's names, tree shadows, He Wenfa and the others immediately wanted to escape.

"Since we're already here, why run away?"

"On the way to the underworld, tell your brother that I am a kind-hearted person and, to prevent him from being alone, I specially sent you down to keep him company."

Qin Sheng slapped him across the face, the holy light shining brightly, illuminating the heavens.

Bang!

He Wenfa, a peak-level Great Power, and his two followers at the mid-level Great Power were directly smashed into a bloody mist. Their primordial spirits and treasures were captured by Qin Sheng and brought over.

"Let me see why you're bidding for the Sun Chariot..."

Qin Sheng searched the soul and asked about the method, then laughed after a moment.

"So you had a divine weapon elixir."

Divine Weapon Elixir can enhance the essence of a weapon, strengthen its foundation, and make up for deficiencies. It is a life-saving elixir for weapons in poor condition.

This thing is extremely difficult to create. It can only be born in a place where weapons have been forged and sacrificed countless times, and there is a chance that the source energy of divine weapons will gather. It depends entirely on luck and is difficult to manufacture artificially.

He Wenfa planned to baptize the Sun Chariot with the Divine Weapon Elixir and then take it back to the Yin-Yang Sect to try to cleanse it of impurities with the water of the Yin-Yang Purifying Heaven Pool.

This Yin-Yang Pure Heaven Pool is where the Yin-Yang Sacred Mirror is enshrined. The pool water is illuminated by sacred weapons all year round, making it exceptionally effective.

This setup, while not guaranteeing the Sun Chariot's rebirth, should at least restore some of its power, enough for He Wenfa's use.

"Not bad, not bad, you haven't disappointed me. Let me see where my Divine Weapon Elixir is..."

Qin Sheng rummaged through He Wenfa's belongings and found a gourd. When he opened it, the liquid inside shimmered with a metallic luster, and countless weapon shadows flickered within it.

"It's amazing."

Qin Sheng then took stock of the other treasures belonging to He Wenfa and the other two. Because of the soul-searching process, he knew these things very well.

The weapons, elixirs, and pure essences were nothing special; Qin Sheng valued the four jade bottles they carried most.

Each jade bottle contained ten drops of golden dragon marrow, each the size of a lychee, exuding a fragrant aroma and exuding supreme nobility. Inside, small golden dragons were swimming.

“Top-grade dragon marrow, apart from the invisible Dream Dragon Marrow, is a top-tier treasure.”

Qin Sheng put away the four bottles of dragon marrow with satisfaction.

Yin Yang Sect, you have performed well, and we commend you. We hope you will continue your efforts.

"This auction not only didn't result in a loss, but actually made a fortune."

Qin Sheng suddenly realized that auctions were also a quick way to make money.

"You can tell Ye Fan this way. With his tendency to attract hatred, he can easily provoke a large number of enemies."

By then, will getting rich be far away?
As for the trouble he might cause, Master Ye is not afraid of trouble!

After severing He Wenfa and the others' primordial spirits and cleaning up the scene, Qin Sheng took out the Xuan Yu Platform, inscribed Dao patterns, and began void teleportation.

call out!
He disappeared from here, and when he reappeared, he was already five hundred miles away from Qishi Mansion.

When Qin Sheng entered Qishi Mansion, many people turned their attention to him.

"Dongxian is back alive. It seems that even the divine will can't do anything to him."

“The thoughts of the gods are of the utmost yin, while the heavenly tribulation is of the utmost yang. How could that demon dare to oppose the heavenly tribulation?”

"He's reached the intermediate level of the Eastern Immortal Realm..." Not long had passed between the closure of the Immortal Mansion and Qin Sheng's return to the Qishi Mansion, only about a day.

It's fortunate that Qin Sheng returned in time; otherwise, someone would have spread rumors that he had died at the hands of the gods.

"See? I told you everything would be fine. When Qin Xianren dared to step forward, I knew he must have a way to deal with the divine thoughts."

Ye Fan and the others were all in Qin Sheng's cave. When they saw him return, Master Ye smiled happily.

"What divine thoughts? They're just shady stuff. How could they possibly keep you here?"

Ye Fan knew Qin Sheng too well; he knew Qin Sheng would never go to his death.

"Holy Son, it's good that you're back safe and sound." Yao Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Big brother!"

The little girl sat on Pang Bo's broad shoulders and waved to Qin Sheng.

Qin Sheng smiled, picked up the little girl, pinched her chubby cheeks, and asked:
"Does Nannan miss her big brother?"

"I really, really want to."

The little girl said in a serious tone, "I can't even eat anymore. I've lost weight. You have to make it up to me."

Qin Sheng couldn't help but chuckle, "Who taught you to say that?"

Little Nannan is not the kind of person who would say that.

"My brother taught me!"

"My dear girl, how could you betray me!"

The atmosphere inside the cave was cheerful.

Qin Sheng looked at Ye Fan and the others and asked, "When I went to chase after the divine thought, did you encounter any trouble?"

"You've returned the Azure Emperor's Weapon to Princess Yan, so how dare anyone else come looking for trouble with me?" Ye Fan shook his head.

Do you think I'm a vegetable with no temper just because I don't get angry?
"It's a pity. We rushed into the deepest part of the Immortal Mansion with great excitement, but we didn't even see a trace of the Great Emperor's treasures." Pang Bo sighed.

This is indeed a pity, and many people outside think so.

Even if many people are not strong enough to compete for the Imperial Treasure, they have already come all this way, so even just to see what the Imperial Treasure looks like is enough to make the trip worthwhile.

In the future, when I go out as a stranger, I'll have more things to show off.

Qin Sheng smiled and said, "Since you want to see it, then I'll show you."

"Is the treasure with you, Immortal Qin?" Pang Bo whispered.

“You still don’t understand him enough. I knew it when we were in the Immortal Mansion that the Great Emperor’s treasure had definitely fallen into his hands,” Ye Fan said with a smile.

Looking back on all his and Qin Sheng's past adventures, when did they ever return empty-handed?
"You're so smart, I should give you an award."

As Qin Sheng spoke, he first had Yan Ruyu take out an imperial weapon to seal off the place, preventing outsiders from spying on it. Then he took out the coffin of the ancient tea tree from the Enlightenment.

"This coffin is terrifying. Is there really an ancient coffin of a deity in the Immortal Abode? Is it a deity buried inside? Or a great emperor?" Yao Xi was very surprised.

"Time was tight at the time, and I didn't open it." Qin Sheng certainly knew what was inside.

"The material of this coffin looks so familiar to me," Pang Bo wondered.

"You look familiar, that's why. You saw it when you entered the Undying Mountain."

"The Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree!" Ye Fan realized.

“That’s right.” Qin Sheng nodded.

"Cutting down the ancient tea tree of Wudao to make a coffin—this is an attempt to achieve immortality." Even the usually composed Yan Ruyu was shaken at this moment.

"I have read some records in ancient books that if you use the immortal tree as a coffin, you can be immortal and there is even a possibility of resurrection in the future."

The so-called immortal trees refer to the ancient tea trees of enlightenment, the ancient sun trees, and the ancient bodhi trees—these are all alternative immortal medicines.

They are all immortal. It is said that using them as coffins can preserve a trace of life in the body, making it immortal.

But Qin Sheng denied this claim, saying, "Immortality cannot be achieved with just a coffin; ultimately, it depends on the person."

Otherwise, if every emperor cut down some immortal trees to make a coffin, everyone would ascend to immortality.

It can only be said that this was an unsuccessful attempt by ancient emperors to achieve immortality.

These figures made far too many attempts and explorations in their pursuit of immortality and becoming immortals.

"Furthermore, there are no gods in this world. This coffin was originally cast by an ancient emperor to bury himself."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan keenly realized something: "Is it the Undying Emperor?"

"Ah."

Qin Sheng placed the ancient coffin on the ground, preparing to open it, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Ye Fan and Pang Bo retreating together.

Qin Sheng: "...What are you doing?"

"This is the Emperor's burial coffin. We mortals should not get too close, lest we offend the ancient gods," Ye Fan said.
"You are Dongxian, open the coffin."

Qin Sheng laughed at this shameless attitude, and he pulled Ye Fan and the other man over.

"You guys drive it."

"This is not good."

"Will the Immortal Emperor rise from the dead?"

The two were intimidated, because the coffin was so famous.

Ye Fan had seen the ruthless man's coffin and knew just how terrifying the Emperor's Coffin was. Under normal circumstances, it was an extremely dangerous object that was difficult to even approach.

"If you won't open the coffin, then I'm going to open it for you."

Forced by Qin Sheng's tyranny, the two still managed to open the coffin lid together.

boom!
A sound like thunder exploded, but it was blocked by the imperial weapon, and endless chaotic energy flowed back out.

"Why is it empty?" Ye Fan asked in surprise.

The coffin was empty; there was no corpse inside, only a human-shaped mark at the bottom.

"The Immortal Emperor has passed away?"

“This is a mark of the Great Dao, containing the Dao of the Great Emperor. In other words, it is an Imperial Scripture,” Qin Sheng said.

"The Imperial Scripture of the Immortal Emperor?" Ye Fan exclaimed excitedly.

This is an ancient deity, absolutely one of the strongest ancient emperors throughout history. If one could cultivate his scriptures, one would definitely achieve great things.

If I could cultivate the Heavenly Emperor Scripture, it would allow me to immediately ascend to the Immortal Realm and become the ruler of all races in the future. I would be willing to do that.

"The little girl saw a dragon!"

At this moment, the little girl in Qin Sheng's arms said, "This human seal is made up of many small dragons. Sometimes they turn into symbols, and sometimes they turn into characters."

"What specific information did you see?" Qin Sheng asked.

“There’s an article called ‘The Imperial Dragon’s Aura’,” the little girl said.

"Isn't that the supreme secret technique from the Taihuang Scripture?" Pang Bo asked, puzzled.

"As expected, it was the Supreme Emperor who left this Great Dao Seal, not the Immortal Emperor."

Qin Sheng looked as if he had expected this all along.

"Holy Son, what do you know?" Yao Xi asked curiously.

"On the five-colored platform, besides this ancient coffin, there is also a human skin wrapped in ice, emitting a similar aura to that of an ultimate imperial weapon."

Qin Sheng: "The human skin is currently suppressed by me and it's inconvenient to remove it, but there's a line of text written on the ice."

The gist of the inscription was that a newcomer had attempted to use this coffin made of the immortal wood to bury himself, and had thus offended the intruder.

This inscription was undoubtedly left by the Emperor Taihuang.

In his later years, this great emperor found the Immortal Abode and discovered this coffin.

Upon seeing this, the Emperor exclaimed, "Wow! This coffin is destined to be mine; it should rightfully belong to me!"

As for the original owner of the coffin of the Enlightenment Ancient Tree, the Immortal Emperor?
He's just a dead man, why would I be afraid of him?
That is to say, the Immortal Emperor was not born in the same era as me, otherwise you can see if I could just mess with him and be done with it.

So the Emperor Taihuang opened the coffin, threw out the skin that had been buried inside after the Immortal Emperor's metamorphosis, and then went inside to sleep...

So, what was the price for the Emperor Taihuang to do this?
