It was not until the Shadow Demon Emperor turned into blood mist that Yan Liqiang stood up. He glanced at the cave where only the Shadow Demon's corpse was left, shook his head, and then asked the bronze soldiers and iron horses he summoned to act as porters to clear away the stones and debris that blocked the cave entrance.
The bronze soldiers and iron horses summoned by the Nine Dragon Seal were not only good at killing people, because of their strength, they were also very efficient in clearing the rocks at the entrance of the cave. One hundred cavalrymen rushed forward, stabbing and picking with their spears. The huge rocks were constantly picked up and rolled to both sides. Even the bronze horses under the crotch of the terracotta warriors used their hooves to dig at the broken stones and kicked them behind.
Amid the rumbling sounds, the infantry terracotta warriors used their hands and feet to easily kick or throw away boulders weighing thousands of pounds.
Seeing Yan Liqiang's situation, Yan Liqiang had an idea. If these war terracotta warriors could do delicate work, he could use them as craftsmen at any time in the future. Thinking of this, he tried to see if he could make the movements of these war terracotta warriors become more delicate when moving the stones, such as stacking the moved stones neatly. But the subsequent situation made Yan Liqiang give up this idea. Now the war terracotta warriors could not be finely controlled, and they only had powerful fighting instincts. In their eyes, the stones blocking the entrance of the cave were just another form of "enemy". They could crush the enemy, pick them up, throw them away, kick them away, and make these "enemies" disappear in front of them, but they didn't seem to know how to stack these "enemies" neatly. There seemed to be no such option in their "procedure".
"I am too greedy. In fact, it is enough for these war terracotta warriors to fight and kill enemies!" Yan Liqiang smiled with relief and muttered to himself.
Thanks to the efforts of hundreds of Wuba-level "porters", all the rocks blocking the cave were cleared away in less than twenty minutes, revealing the cave entrance.
Figures flashed at the entrance of the cave, and Cui Lichen, Li Hongtu, and Ji Xiaoyao entered the cave at once and came in front of Yan Liqiang.
The two sides met each other and were relieved to see that the other was fine.
"Master, Elder Cui, are you all okay?" Yan Liqiang asked with concern.
"We are fine. Li Qiang, are you okay?"
"I'm fine too. These demons should have left four Martial King-level warriors outside!"
"We have killed the four evil demons they left outside!" Cui Lichen scanned the cave, glancing at the corpses of the shadow demons in the cave. When he saw the warriors standing solemnly in the cave, two balls of divine light burst out of Cui Lichen's eyes. He carefully looked at the motionless metal warriors, gasped, and could not help but walk closer, reaching out to touch the iron horse under a cavalryman, "Are these the bronze soldiers and iron horses in the Nine Dragon Seal?"
"good!"
"Li Qiang, that Martial Emperor-level demon was just killed by these war terracotta warriors?" Li Hongtu's eyes widened at this time. He circled around an infantry war terracotta warrior next to him twice, stretched out his hand and patted the body of an infantry soldier, Kirito, making a dull, hard sound, "It feels like copper..."
"Yes, these war terracotta warriors are completely war machines. Master, don't be fooled by the fact that they are made of metal, but each of them has the strength of a Martial Tyrant. If they are outside, these Martial Kings and Martial Emperors can still have a chance to escape if they can't defeat them. But in this closed environment, once they are surrounded by these war terracotta warriors, they can only be exhausted to death. There is no chance of luck. After being destroyed, these war terracotta warriors can automatically recover, which means they can never be killed!"
"Li Qiang, let this bronze man in front of me move..." Li Hongtu said with interest.
Yan Liqiang smiled slightly and asked the warriors in front of Li Hongtu to step forward and move, which scared Li Hongtu.
Ji Xiaoyao was always elegant, but looking at the bronze soldiers and horses in the cave in front of him, he couldn't help but take a closer look at the terracotta warrior archers, and a rare touch of emotion appeared on his face. "I didn't expect that these were the bronze soldiers and horses in the legendary Nine Dragon Seal. Since the founding of the Han Empire, I don't know how many hundreds of years have passed. No one in the world has ever seen the true appearance of these bronze soldiers and horses that can sweep across the world. Legend has it that in ancient times, the ancestors of our Chinese clan used the Nine Dragon Seal to wipe out the countless ferocious and poisonous insects and beasts that feed on humans in the wilderness. This allowed the Chinese clan to continue. According to the tradition of the Chinese clan, whoever owns the Nine Dragon Seal is..."
A sudden voice suddenly came from the far end of the cave...
"I never thought that I could see the Nine Dragon Seal displaying its power here today..."
"Who is it!" Li Hongtu shouted loudly and wanted to rush over with a spear in hand. Ji Xiaoyao and Cui Lichen also fixed their eyes and turned their heads at the same time to look into the distance.
Yan Liqiang quickly stopped Li Hongtu and said to the three people around him, "Don't be nervous. The one who came is the Dragon King of the White Lotus Sect. He is a friend. If it weren't for him, I don't know how I would have been able to escape this killing calamity today!"
The Dragon King of the White Lotus Sect, dressed in black, slowly walked out from the shadows in the distance, his eyes flashing. He looked at the terracotta warriors surrounding Yan Liqiang and let out a long breath. "I was wondering before, if the White Lotus Sect rebel got this thing, why did he not immediately declare himself emperor? It turns out that this treasure of the Chinese race is with you, Your Highness. The Nine Dragon Seal is the sacred artifact of our Chinese race. Since ancient times, whoever possesses the Nine Dragon Seal is the master of the world, respected by all Chinese. With this thing, perhaps I can no longer call you Your Highness, but Your Majesty!"
"Dragon King, you are joking. I just got this Nine Dragon Seal by chance!" Yan Liqiang looked at the approaching Dragon King calmly. To be honest, he was not surprised to see the Dragon King here. He would be really surprised if he didn't see him.
“So-called coincidence is God’s will!” The Dragon King’s eyes were fixed on Yan Liqiang’s face, his expression extremely solemn. “Before, when I came to Ganzhou and saw your highness’s foundation in Qiyun County, I judged that it would only take ten years at most for your highness to sweep across the world from the northwest, quell the civil strife in the Han Empire, and bring peace to the world. But now, seeing your highness’s Nine Dragon Seal, I realize that ten years is really too long. Now the world is in turmoil, and countless people in the Han Empire are in dire straits. Every day, countless people die in wars and turmoil, their families are broken up, and they are displaced. In order to save countless poor people in the world from the disaster of devastation, your highness must take action to quell the chaos in the world…” After speaking, the Dragon King bowed deeply to Yan Liqiang and bowed to the ground.
"I just want to calm down the chaos in the Han Empire. It won't be done in a few days!"
“If I have a plan that can restore peace to the Han Empire in the shortest possible time and put an end to the civil strife in the Han Empire, and the condition is that Your Highness takes a risk and is not afraid of the world knowing that the Nine Dragon Tripod is in Your Highness’ hands, I wonder if Your Highness dares to give it a try for the sake of the hundreds of millions of people in the Han Empire?” The Dragon King looked at Yan Liqiang and continued, “If this plan succeeds, Your Highness will become His Majesty, respected by the world, and can easily ascend to the throne, inherit the throne openly, pacify the empire, rule the world and create a prosperous era again!”
Hearing what the Dragon King said, Cui Lichen and the other two were shocked.
Li Hongtu snorted, "You sound nice, but what if it doesn't work? Wouldn't that mean Li Qiang will die?"
"If it fails, with the means and abilities that Your Highness has shown today, Your Highness's life will probably not be in danger. It will only cause the world to continue to be in turmoil for a few more years. Everything will not be worse than it is now..."
