Zongwu: Start as Jinyiwei, invincible and powerful!

Lin Fan noticed something strange going on deep in the tunnel and turned around to tell Xiao Chang, "That thing is very powerful. You should stay away from it and hide from the surrounding area. I can handle it myself."

Seeing that Lin Fan was taking the matter seriously, Xiao Chang did not dare to be negligent at all. He quickly jumped out of the deep pit and hid in the dense forest.

Lin Fan restrained his own aura, and no life could be detected on his body. He was just like the dead objects such as rocks and soil around him. Only by concealing his aura to this extent could he lure out the thing deep in the tunnel.

Long before entering Dongshan, he learned from the information conveyed by Luowang that thirty years ago, someone had seen an earth dragon being born here, holding a five-colored magical object in its mouth.

This incident also attracted many powerful people from various sects, but after exploring the area for a long time, they still couldn't find the earth dragon.

Later, the leader of a certain sect asserted that the earth dragon was a strange beast raised by the previous dynasty and buried with the Qin Emperor. The strange sight people saw was nothing more than the resentment of the powerful beast before its death.

There were also some giants who refuted the claim, believing that the earth dragon was a miraculous treasure from the Qin Emperor's treasury. It had been nurtured by the Feng Shui treasure land for hundreds of years, and now it had developed spiritual consciousness and displayed supernatural powers.

Lin Fan scoffed at these claims. According to ancient records, the earth dragon should be a creature of destiny transformed from the dragon vein of the Great Qin Dynasty, and what it held in its mouth was the secret key to the underground palace.

Moreover, the earth dragon itself also contains a big secret, which is likely closely related to the Qin Emperor's pursuit of immortality.

Lin Fan first tried to lure the earth dragon out, then casually threw his Jinyiwei badge into the corridor and observed quietly.

The earth dragon itself was transformed from the dragon vein of the Great Qin Dynasty, so it naturally likes things that are tainted with great fortune, such as the secret key to the underground palace in its mouth, which contains the last fortune of the Great Qin Dynasty and is regarded as a treasure by it.

After a long time, there was no movement in the depths of the tunnel. It seemed that it had a big appetite, and the weight of the Jinyiwei badge alone was not enough.

Lin Fan did not seem to be in a hurry. He continued to throw the ring of the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect and the seal symbolizing the father-in-law of the Emperor of the Great Zhou into the underground tunnel.

The Xiaoyao Sect ring symbolizes a thousand-year-old immortal sect heritage. It has gone through countless years of vicissitudes and has carried immeasurable fortunes of rise and fall.

Then it passed through Xiaoyaozi, Wuyazi and Lin Fan, three peerless masters who nourished it day and night, and it was inevitable that it would be contaminated by their luck.

As for the seal, it was a token of trust bestowed upon Lin Fan by the young emperor of the Great Zhou. It represented the destiny of an empire, an empire with a vast territory and a powerful aura.

As expected, as the two tokens were thrown into the deep pit, Lin Fan immediately felt the changes deep in the tunnel.

Suddenly, a white light appeared and rushed out from the depths of the tunnel like an arrow. The speed of this flash was so fast that it was difficult for the human eye to capture its trajectory. It was so fast that it was astonishing.

Only when the light covered the two tokens could the full appearance of the creature be seen. It was a nine-tailed dragon fish with gilded scales. Judging from its appearance alone, it really looked like the legendary earth dragon.

This dragon fish was more than half a person's height, and its nine tails alone were more than ten meters long. Its entire body was covered with glittering golden scales. It swallowed Lin Fan's two tokens in one gulp, and its belly suddenly bulged out, as if it had eaten too much.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I thought the Nine-tailed Dragon Fish only existed in ancient books and strange stories, but I never thought someone could actually do this..."

A strange look flashed in Lin Fan's eyes. Even a calm person like him couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for the Emperor of Qin.

He had always guessed that this creature was transformed from the dragon vein of the Great Qin, but he never expected that the Emperor of the Great Qin was even more ambitious and dared to use the luck of the entire dynasty to feed this kind of mythical beast, let it live on the dragon vein of the Great Qin, and gradually transform into a nine-tailed beast.

You know, even in ancient books, the nine-tailed dragon fish is an extremely special existence. It is difficult to raise it unless it is a dynasty with great fortune, and it is difficult to control it unless it is an emperor of the ages.

The luck that the various countries that existed in history could carry was not even enough to fill its teeth. Only the Qin Empire, which achieved great unification, was qualified.

Lin Fan watched for a while and couldn't help but feel sorry for the emperor of all ages. After being nourished by the dragon veins of the Great Qin for countless years, this nine-tailed dragon fish has reached the realm of perfection. It is only one step away from becoming a real dragon, that is, leaping over the Dragon Gate.

If the Great Qin Dynasty still existed today, this nine-tailed dragon fish might actually transform into a real dragon.

Of course, this possibility is very small, it just means there is a glimmer of hope.

After all, the legend about real dragons only exists in ancient myths. Many people have spent countless rare treasures in their dream of recreating the real dragons in myths, but they have all failed without exception.

The path of the nine-tailed dragon fish transforming into a dragon is believed by countless sages to be the most likely to succeed.

The dynasty's fortune is in line with the laws of nature. Even if there is a possibility of transforming into a dragon in the world, it can only be implemented in this way.

But even so, Lin Fan felt jealous when he saw the nine-tailed dragon fish and wanted to catch it.

When he saw the dragon fish for the first time, he had a premonition that it might contain the secret to breaking through the boundary between heaven and man.

It has been some time since he reached the peak of the Heavenly Man Realm, but no matter how he practiced, his strength was indeed getting stronger, but his cultivation level remained unchanged.

It seemed as if he had reached the end of the martial arts path in the human world, and the path ahead was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

He realized that the peerless martial arts he possessed could only be considered mortal skills. No matter how hard he practiced, he still could not reach the threshold of breaking through the boundaries.

Now looking at this nine-tailed dragon fish, Lin Fan immediately understood that the emperor who once stood at the pinnacle of the human world was not worried about immortality at all.

But like him, it is difficult to break through the limits of martial arts and cannot find the way forward.

Presumably, this nine-tailed dragon fish is an experiment of the emperor on breaking through the realm. If the nine-tailed dragon fish really transforms into a real dragon as recorded in ancient books, then the dynasty's luck will also allow it to break through the boundary between heaven and man.

The principles of the two are the same. If the laws of nature do not allow it, then we must use the extremes of human nature to fight against it.

"Where does the past and present end? Thousands of years drift with the wind. Even the Eternal Emperor could not achieve his wish. This dragon fish is still one step short."

Lin Fan shook his head slightly. The martial arts path has an end, and there is no way forward. He stood at the end of this road, looking back at the road he had come from, which was filled with the struggles and unwillingness of countless heroes from ancient times to the present.

This is the limitation of heaven and earth, which cannot be changed by human power. No matter how brilliant one is, it is useless.

Lin Fan just sighed lightly and quickly calmed down. As the saying goes, there is always a way out. He has the system by his side, but it would be a bit pretentious for him to be sentimental about those illusory things.

Although heaven does not allow it, there are still people who have explored ways to survive forever. As the saying goes, as long as one is determined, he firmly believes that he can succeed.

This nine-tailed dragon fish might be a good opportunity.
