Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 1240 - 554: Purple Void Sovereign Lord of Brahma Energy, the Dew of Germinating Seeds
[You have obtained the ’Vermilion Imperial Jade Seal’ (Rare Treasure of the World)!]
[’Vermilion Imperial Jade Seal’ (Rare Treasure of the World): The national treasure, the Imperial Jade Seal, measures four inches square and is carved from the finest Hetian jade. Inscribed on the seal are eight large turtle-shell script characters that read ’Given life by heaven, thus blessed with eternal prosperity.’ The word ’heaven’ here does not refer to the sky above but to the Ancient Heavenly Warden, symbolizing the divine right and the perpetual succession of the nation.]
[You can sell this item to the Book of Trade to obtain a massive amount of Spirituality, or you can give it to a character in the story to greatly increase their favor towards you. Even if they are your sworn enemy, this Rare Treasure of the World can eliminate some of their animosity towards you. (This treasure cannot be obtained again once given away.)] 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
After finishing off the treasure-guarding eunuch, not only did he drop the Great Bodhisattva’s Invoking Mantra, but I also looted the Vermilion Imperial Jade Seal.
There is a hierarchy to the treasures in the Underworld Game, with the ’Rare Treasure of the World’ being the top-tier.
He looked at the Invoking Mantra and the Imperial Jade Seal in his pocket, his eyes flashing with numerous characters as he considered how to deal with this Right Attendant to the Yama God.
Lin Xun came up with several plans, but after careful consideration, he rejected them one by one.
The BOSS’s strength was simply too formidable; his cultivation could rival that of the four Dragon Sons. Mere tricks and schemes were not enough to bridge the vast gap in their power.
"This is going to be difficult..."
[You return to the body of the ’treasure-guarding eunuch’ and pick up the cleanly severed right arm, fitting it back onto the shoulder of the corpse...]
[You activate your Flesh Authority Power, attempting to repair the severed limb on the corpse...]
[As the Flesh Authority Power is activated, tiny buds of flesh grow from the cross-sections of the arm and shoulder, squirming and intertwining to connect.]
[Before long, the right arm is completely restored, without even a hint of a scar.]
Lin Xun’s Flesh Authority Power had improved significantly since before, and operations such as repairing a corpse were not difficult for him; the main issue was the grade of the enemy’s Shell.
Even if the body of a feeble monster was crushed into a pile of chili paste, repairing it with the Flesh Authority would pose no difficulty.
However, the bodily manifestations of high-level Divine and Buddha figures are too strong, making them much harder to repair with the Flesh Authority.
With Lin Xun’s current abilities, without relying on the ’Beginning of the Holy Spirit,’ repairing bodies below the Divine is as easy as flipping one’s hand, whereas for Immortal and Immortal+ level bodies, he can only slightly restore limb disabilities.
If the enemy was shattered into pieces, then he would have to resort to cheats to repair them...
After stowing the treasure-guarding eunuch’s Shell in his bag, he found that its memories had been eroded by Malice, yielding no valuable intelligence.
This Shell of martial enlightenment was far inferior to the main Shells he had in his collection, measuring only three centimeters, which Lin Xun found downright unworthy of use.
After some thought, he decided to fulfill the treasure-guarding eunuch’s dream, using his Flesh Authority Power to fully repair the imperfections...
"Damn! Such shamelessness. It’s only five centimeters altogether; there’s no difference whether it is fully repaired or not!"
"Talking about earthly paradise, huh~ Bah!"
[...]
[Inside the Wen Hua Hall, the Vermilion Crown Prince had been waiting for a long time.]
[Upon your return, it brightened up, eagerly asking, Great Buddha, what about the ’treasure-guarding eunuch’?]
[You pull out ’Emperor Wu’s Human Skin Mask’ and throw it to the Crown Prince, saying, His Highness the Crown Prince, for now, you shall assume Emperor Wu’s false identity. Having this status will make it easier to handle affairs.]
[The Vermilion Crown Prince, overwhelmed with joy, unsteadily received the Human Skin Mask and placed it on its face.]
[Instantly, its bones made cracking sounds as its figure grew tall and imposing, its face becoming exceedingly majestic, indistinguishable from ’Emperor Wu.’]
[It looked at itself in the Bronze Mirror, hardly believing it could stand at the pinnacle of power so effortlessly.]
[After giving it a sweet jujube, it’s time to strike it with a couple of blows; just as you were about to admonish the Vermilion Crown Prince, it prostrated without a word and ’thud, thud, thud’ gave you three kowtows.]
[The Buddha has bestowed such grace that I shall never forget for all my life, and wherever the Buddha’s decree points, I will follow, through fire and water, without hesitation!]
[When it lifted its head, the Vermilion Crown Prince’s face was filled with excitement, and its eyes brimmed with tears.]
[You couldn’t help but laugh, knowing that the Crown Prince understood better than anyone that its imperial power came from being a vassal to the Western Buddha, and should it harbor the slightest irreverence towards the Buddha, the Western Buddha could support its rise to the throne, as well as cast it down.]
[You thought for a moment, then continued to address it, There are factions and rifts among the Western Buddha, and His Highness the Crown Prince must understand which path to follow and which side to choose.]
[The Vermilion Crown Prince nodded vigorously, saying, I understand. Unless it’s a decree from the two Great Buddhas, no other Buddha’s words can move me!]
[You smiled slightly, patting the Crown Prince’s head, saying, The Crown Prince truly has the bearing of an emperor! In the future, you shall undoubtedly be a benevolent ruler who brings prosperity to the Vermilion people.]
[Once you have removed the true ’Emperor Wu,’ it can rightly ascend the throne.]
[The Vermilion Crown Prince choked up, unable to speak, and just kept kowtowing to you...]
The next day, the Vermilion Crown Prince took up residence in Qianqing Palace and ascended the Golden Throne in Taihe Hall.
With ’Emperor Wu’ providing protection, the Forbidden City held no more secrets for Lin Xun, who explored and plundered it inch by inch.
Wen Yuan Pavilion housed a large collection of ancient tomes, Buddhist and Daoist Scriptures, and secret martial arts manuals. Even though there were no Divine cultivation techniques, a large collection of martial arts secrets could still fetch a good sum of Spirituality.
Inside the Wuying Hall and Shoukang Palace, there were numerous masterpieces of calligraphy and painting, jewelry, jade artifacts, and antique ceramics; he picked out a few treasures from them, but unfortunately, no more Rare Treasures of the World such as the Imperial Jade Seal appeared.
