The queen ascended the throne, changed her title to Si Guan, and granted amnesty to the world.
The next step is to appease the dignitaries everywhere, receive local officials, meet with military commanders, etc... This is what the new emperor must do after he ascends the throne to establish his status.
Jin Ya... no, we should call her Zhao Ya now, and she was busy. Everything went smoothly, and all parties showed enough respect and awe for the newly ascended queen to recognize her rule over Qingyang.
This made Jin Ya (who would still be called that from now on), who was originally worried, relieved in her heart, but she also understood that this success was because of the person who was in retreat in the mountain after Emperor Wu.
Thinking of that kid, Jin Ya couldn't help but grit her teeth. He didn't show up on the day he ascended the throne, and she didn't know what he was busy with.
Luo Guan was in the sword tower. He stood in front of the stone door on the ninth floor with a solemn expression.
"Teacher, I'm going to start!"
Today, he will completely open the stone door and try to refine the fragments of the Emperor Sword.
Xuangui said in a deep voice: "Be careful, the Emperor Sword fragments are not that easy to get!"
Nodding, Luo Guan took a deep breath and pressed down his hands. He heard a loud "rumbling" sound and the stone door was fully opened.
The next moment, the darkness behind the stone door suddenly became thinner and became clear bit by bit. What you can see is a vast and boundless void space with nothing inside. But at this time, there was the sound of swords, coming from far away, showing relief and joy.
Without hesitation, Luo Guan took a step forward. After stepping into the stone door, he felt an icy cold breath coming from all directions, penetrating his flesh and bone. Luo Guan's heart beat vigorously in his chest, driving the energy and blood throughout his body to flow "rumblingly", releasing steaming heat to fight against the cold invasion of the outside world. He was secretly frightened, but fortunately he had not rushed in rashly before, otherwise the blood in his body would freeze in an instant and turn into a human-shaped ice cube.
Swish——
Kunpeng's wings spread out, and Luo Guan turned into a stream of light, heading straight into the depths of nothingness - the sound of the sword came from there. But after flying for a long time, there was still nothing in front of him, and the ice and cold that filled the empty space was getting stronger.
The surface of Luo Guan's body was covered with a layer of white frost, and his exposed skin felt stinging like needles. The energy and blood that roared and flowed in the body were now a little sluggish, and it seemed that they would be frozen if they continued like this.
"Teacher, what's going on?" There was no response.
Luo Guan asked again and couldn't help but frown. There seemed to be some unknown power here that had blocked the black turtle.
Next, you can only rely on yourself.
The force of the cold became heavier and heavier, Luo Guan's heartbeat became slower, his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he felt endless fatigue. But the young man's steps didn't stop at all. He just slowed down a little, then a little slower, and a little slower...but he still kept moving forward.
After an unknown amount of time, Luo Guan's eyes moved. There was a sudden change in the endless void ahead.
A little light appeared, which represented hope, but the light was out of reach. Luo Guan walked away for a long time, and it was still the same as before, not even close at all. Just like this light, it exists on the other side that is far away. Although it can be seen, it can never be truly touched.
Only when you are given hope in a desperate situation can you feel the true despair in your heart. The young man who was soaked in the cold just frowned and continued to move forward.
Bang——
The heart beat hard in the chest, pushing the almost frozen Qi and blood to squirm, but this squirm itself was unimaginable torture, like a rusty rough blade, slowly digging deep into the flesh.
The young man took one step, then another, then the third step... With a "click" sound, the young man stepped onto the ground and appeared on a large stone. The stone was made of an unknown material and was emitting light. The terrifying ice and cold around him receded like a tide, and his heart regained its vitality. The frozen blood and energy circulated rapidly, quickly returning to its own state.
Luo Guan looked up and saw a huge sword fragment stuck in the stone. It was more than ten meters long. There seemed to be uncoagulated plasma on the broken irregular edges, and there were black strips as thick as an adult's waist. The iron chain tightly bound it to the boulder.
When Luo Guan looked at the fragments, he also felt like he was being watched. He sighed softly in the air, "Luo Guan, you are finally here."
In the sky above the fragments of the sword body, wisps of light gathered together, and a figure was actually outlined...the old dean! Luo Guan's pupils shrank, showing shock, because what appeared in front of him at this moment was the late Zhou Bingcheng.
"Old Dean" smiled slightly, "I am not Xiao Zhou, but the consciousness born from the fragments of the Emperor's Sword. The reason why I have this image is because I can be born, all because he forcibly borrowed the Emperor's Sword thirty years ago. Wei, sacrificed part of his soul."
He looked at Luo Guan, with a look of relief and admiration, "The origin of killing... can really be won. You are better than I thought. You will not disgrace the inheritance left by the master."
Luo Guan's expression changed again. He didn't expect that consciousness was born from the fragments of the Emperor's Sword only thirty years ago. What about the past? With the level and power of the Imperial Sword, this is obviously unreasonable.
Emperor Sword Consciousness smiled, waved his sleeves, and two chairs appeared out of thin air. He stretched out his hand and said, "There is still a little time. If you have anything to ask, I can tell you everything I know."
Luo Guan bowed, sat down on another chair, and thought about it for a moment before asking about his doubts.
"Before, of course, I was completely blank. I just followed my instinct... You can probably understand that I slept for a long time, and it was Xiao Zhou who woke me up." Emperor Sword Consciousness's voice was calm, but there was a hint of anger between his eyebrows. Complex, "As for the reason, the master is probably worried that it will be extremely long for him to return from death, so he sealed each of us and waited for his rebirth in sleep."
"The birth of self-awareness is really a very dangerous thing. It will make you gradually lose yourself and become selfish..." Emperor Sword Consciousness took a look at it and sighed: "Fortunately, I only waited three days. Ten years have passed since your arrival. If it takes another thirty years, or even longer, I don’t know if I will still follow the master’s will and quietly wait for the new master to arrive, instead of trying to find a way to He killed and took a look at the wonderful world instead."
After a pause, he continued: "For a moment just now, I actually hoped that you would be too cowardly to move forward. Even if it was just a little bit, I could deprive you of the qualification to inherit the Emperor's Sword, but unfortunately you are not, and I still Not completely crazy...this is probably destiny."
Luo Guan's heart was awe-inspiring. From these calm words, he felt endless terror. He finally understood why the owner of the Imperial Sword sealed them back then. As time goes by, the individual who develops consciousness cannot control it.
After a long silence, he asked his second question, "Will the Lord of the Imperial Sword really return from death?"
