Chapter 113: Chapter 109 Qin Han Remnants, Tangg Valley Golden Chicken
After hundreds of years, the Giant Golden Fish transformed into a spirit monster.
Spirit monsters and demons appear similar but are vastly different.
Demons are akin to cultivators who absorb Sun Essence and Moonlight to gain their essence, most often as animals or ghosts.
Spirit monsters have various ways of gaining essence, and their types are extraordinarily diverse; they include not only living beings but also objects.
Simply put, spirit monsters gain their essence through natural laws and possess strange and unique abilities.
For example, the Giant Golden Fish attained its essence by binding itself to Imperial Power.
The abilities of the Giant Golden Fish likely include fulfilling wishes. This is not a spell but a law that cannot be replicated by ordinary people.
"Why did you choose this woman?"
"She has the potential to become an Emperor."
The Giant Golden Fish approaches only emperors; whoever it approaches is destined to become an emperor.
"Her?"
Song Lin glanced at this maiden. Could she really become an emperor in the future?
She must be the emperor of Tuohan Country.
"Can you truly fulfill any wish?" Song Lin asked.
"As long as it’s within my power. Eternal life is possible, but destroying the world is beyond my reach," replied the Giant Golden Fish.
"Eternal life?"
"But not in the true sense of eternal life. I wouldn’t know what consequences might follow once the wish is granted."
Indeed, someone once wished for eternal life from it, and the Giant Golden Fish fulfilled this wish. It placed the soul of that person into a peculiar vase, granting him everlasting existence, and sunk him into the depths of the sea.
"Let’s keep it simple, just help me find something," Song Lin said.
Soon, the two left with the fish bones while secretly tailing General Zhao and his men offshore.
On the mountaintop, Song Lin led a disheveled old man into the crowd.
"Zhengyang, do you still recognize this man?" Song Lin smiled mischievously.
"Greetings to Emperor Shi, do you still recall the Golden Fish of old?" the old man chuckled.
"So it was you!" Zhengyang exclaimed in surprise.
Eight hundred years had passed, Liu Bang had long turned to dust, yet this man remained undying.
"Haha, we’ll reminisce on the way. Let’s first set sail."
Three months later, they finally arrived at Tuohan Country.
On the journey, Song Lin also made a wish.
He sought to uncover the opportunity left by King Mu of Zhou in Tangg Valley, intending to use this opportunity to rescue Shentu and Yulei.
With the two ancient deities, accomplishing the karmic revival of the Taoist School in this world would become much easier.
But the Giant Golden Fish informed him the wish exceeded its capabilities.
"Master, I have not encountered an emperor for five hundred years and lack strength. If we help Ye Xian ascend to the throne, I might regain some of my power."
Song Lin issued orders to his companions.
"Zhengyang, assist Ye Xian in her ascension."
"Bi Xuan, take Ye Xian as a disciple under the Xuanyin Sect and train her diligently."
"Understood!"
The group landed on Spirit Mountain Island, the central hub of Tuohan Country.
"Wait here for now. Zhengyang, Ann Qi, Xuansu, Bi Xuan, and I will go explore further."
As soon as they arrived, the distinct Qin Han style enveloped them.
For someone who had lived since the Qin Han era, this familiarity was deeply comforting.
"Most of the inhabitants of Tuohan Country are remnants of the Qin Han era, but the King is a native," one observed.
Conflicts between natives and Han people have existed since ancient times.
Because of the King’s authority, the Han people found themselves in a subordinate position, with even their property left unprotected.
"Mercy!"
"Han Dog, hand it over!"
A commotion erupted from a tailor shop on the side of the road.
A short native kicked over the shopkeeper and fled with bundles of fine fabrics.
Nearby natives seized the opportunity and rushed into the shop, plundering everything within moments.
"No... No... This is mine..." The aged shopkeeper collapsed to the ground, his gaze hollow.
Native officers on the street pretended not to notice.
This was the tension between Han people and the short, dark natives.
This city was built by the Han people, including even the language spoken here.
Originally, the natives sheltered the Han people for their labor value, unaware of their exceptional intellect. In merely a few hundred years, the Han had permeated all aspects of society, becoming an indispensable force.
Much of what the Han people suffered was tacitly approved by the ruling elite behind the scenes.
As they traveled, they observed similar occurrences repeatedly.
"The conflicts here are incredibly sharp," said Ann Qi.
"Hmph, how can my Huaxia people suffer such humiliation? I will sever the head of this King!" Zhangyang scoffed coldly, his eyes radiating murderous intent.
If it weren’t for Song Lin’s presence, he would have already begun a massacre.
"Not yet! Let’s check out the area near the Imperial Palace first."
The group continued walking toward the most prosperous district.
Along the way, they noticed another striking phenomenon: Many shopkeepers were Han people, though numerous natives worked in their shops. However, the natives were exceedingly lazy, and the shopkeepers dared not complain.
"I took a closer look earlier. This is due to the King’s decree. Every Han-owned shop is required to employ at least half native employees. Yet these natives are inherently lazy, basically forcing the shopkeepers to pay them for nothing," Bi Xuan remarked disdainfully.
To her, these short dark natives seemed no more than parasites.
"Well now, this little beauty is quite stunning! Why not take a stroll with me?"
Just then, a few native officers caught sight of Bi Xuan and eagerly approached.
"Get lost!"
"Haha, spirited, aren’t you? I suspect you might be spies. You’re all coming with us to the government office!"
Five officers encircled the group, one of them reaching out to grab Bi Xuan.
"Kill them," Song Lin commanded.
"Understood!"
Shing!
Without Bi Xuan needing to lift a hand, Zhengyang unsheathed his sword, and five heads rolled to the ground.
Song Lin retrieved the Temple Emperor Seal.
Shing!
Black clouds surged, ghosts and gods manifested.
Twenty thousand Rampant Soldiers appeared amidst the clouds.
"Exterminate every native."
Song Lin issued his order.
Seeing such sharp divisions in this place led him to decide to eradicate every troublesome obstacle.
What ensued was a massacre.
The native wizards had no ability to prevent what unfolded.
The situation in Tuohan Country was resolved, and Ye Xian ascended the throne.
Song Lin left his companions behind to clean up the aftermath and then departed with the Giant Golden Fish.
Three days later, at Tangg Valley.
Song Lin and the Giant Golden Fish arrived beneath the Fusang Tree.
"You may proceed," Song Lin said.
"Very well!"
The Giant Golden Fish closed its eyes.
Profound energies began emanating from its body.
Whoosh!
The two intertwined Fusang Woods trembled violently. Fiery red mulberries shot down, and the golden trunks emitted scorching energy.
The Giant Golden Fish’s complexion grew increasingly pallid.
Rustle!
The golden bird patterns originally embedded on the green leaves of the Fusang Woods now emerged.
Countless fine golden threads floated in midair, converging into a massive design.
It was a gigantic rooster.
The rooster stood a thousand feet tall, with golden feathers, a bright red comb, gem-like eyes, and tail feathers shimmered with seven dazzling colors.
"!!"
The Golden Rooster spread its wings, and Tangg Valley erupted in radiant light.
The Pure Yang Qi became even more intense.
After the wish was granted, the Giant Golden Fish exhausted the last of its strength, shrinking to a thumb-sized fish and darting into the water.
"How magnificent!"
Song Lin marveled at the spectacle—a rooster of such colossal proportions.
The Golden Rooster’s gaze converged on Song Lin, its eyes flickering with an intense killing intent.
"Who are you? How dare you intrude upon Tangg Valley!"
