Ji Shang did not react.
"We're all in the same boat. I think it's better to be honest. I'm not a person who likes to deceive people. Everyone in the underworld knows that I'm a sincere person who treats people with sincerity!"
Li Li said honestly, "Lies. Our cooperation is destined not to last. Smart people can sense whether one is sincere or not. What Immortal Dynasty? I made it up. I admit my mistake.
I'm indeed from another realm and have the bloodline of a god.
That world's technology is a level higher than your ancient era's. There are skyscrapers, cars, and planes … But now that you've been asleep for so many years, the outside world should be more or less the same. I suddenly met a god and was transported here. I don't know what happened either. "
Ji Shang was stunned. Such a simple background?
This king likes people like you. In that case, let's work together to conquer the world. There's a place for you in my world … This king has also said that regardless of whether what you said was true or not, I will naturally kill you in the future because you killed thousands of brothers who fought with me for most of my life … But now, they are fated to die. They can't bear the Eternal Blood. "
Li Li laughed as if relieved of a heavy burden. This was his first time killing someone, and he had experienced so much. "That's right. One must be rational. They were going to die of old age anyway. I didn't kill them, so I gave them a chance to live …"
"Perhaps so."
Ji Shang's eyes dimmed. Under these circumstances, he was trapped in the tomb. If he continued to sleep like this, those soldiers would die without a doubt because they had already reached a critical point.
This recognition was mutual.
If they could not completely trust each other, then there was no point in being on guard against each other.
He recognized Ji Shang because he had traveled the underworld for many years. From the terracotta soldiers, he had learned that Ji Shang, who still had more than half of his Tier 4 lifespan, had entered the tomb because he could not bear to let his dying soldiers sleep with him. From this, it could be seen that Ji Shang was the kind of king who would not kill meritorious subjects.
As long as he treated him sincerely, he would naturally feel it.
This was his way of doing business after traveling the underworld for so many years.
If you lied to such an ambitious person, he would definitely be able to sense it, no matter how clever your trickery was. His intelligence was frighteningly high, and he had a photographic memory. He could learn a foreign language in three days. It was simply too terrifying.
If it were an ordinary person, they would not be able to jump out of this trap. In the end, they would definitely be at each other's throats.
"Then I'll bite you? For you to be able to open up four realms on your own, your cultivation talent and talent are definitely terrifying. You also have a firm will, so you should have a high chance of success. After all, you are the Heaven's Chosen One. "After saying that, Li Li bit down.
Three days later.
Ji Shang had successfully endured the gene fusion and regained his consciousness. His willpower was indeed astonishingly terrifying.
At the same time, Li Li was surprised to find that the Eternal Emperor had not become a three-gene creature, but a two-gene creature. Because of its Immortal Bloodline, its Radiation Bloodline had been replaced.
"Incompatible bloodlines?"
Li Li said, "The True Qi Bloodline has also begun to leak … It's not that it's incompatible with the True Qi Bloodline. It's because the cancer cells are constantly destroying the body's tissues and producing lesions, causing the trachea to be broken. It's better in the hospital. We should have taken an X-ray."
He did a simple blood test and felt that the two double nuclear power cylinders in his heart, which was made of carbon dioxide and oxygen, were starting to leak.
In Li Li's words, Ji Shang was like a leaking doll.
After all, the internal circulation of zhenqi was the perfect and exquisite structure of the body. The structure before him had been destroyed.
"Side leak? Shatter? You mean the two internal Qi cycles, right? "
Ji Shang did not understand. He only said, "The internal Qi cycle is not a perfect one to begin with. According to my extensive research, we need to replenish it regularly. It's just that we replenish the oxygen and carbon dioxide that you mentioned through food. They are taken from the stomach into the bloodstream and circulated to the two left and right hearts.
However, the degree of leakage before him was indeed countless times greater …
It seems that this bloodline is too tyrannical. The degree of destruction to the body is too great. Based on this, we need to eat a large amount of food to replenish the carbon dioxide and oxygen to maintain the internal circulation. "
"This is too slow."
Li Li shook his head. "Especially when the amount of exercise is great. Fighting, running, and oxygen consumption increase. When there's a large loss, it's very difficult to quickly replenish it. We might have to … suck blood to replenish the consumption."
Ji Shang nodded. "Suck blood?"
In reality, Ji Shang was only in his forties, the same age as Li Li. The two of them began to discuss and research.
Ji Shang said with a serious expression, "Indeed, we need to suck blood to maintain … If we become stronger, we might have to rear some blood people to replenish our blood regularly …"
"Based on this, the price of immortality is terrifying. But according to what you said, after reaching the seventh rank, the body's normal cells will be completely devoured, and we will be completely perfected. Our internal circulation won't rupture, and we won't need to suck blood anymore."
Li Li took a deep breath. Goosebumps rose all over his body.
Is this the essence of sucking blood?
Cancer cells invade the body and rupture the blood circulation, so we can only suck blood to replenish our nutrients?
So that's how it is!
The ancients did not deceive me.
Immortality of zombies: cancer cells.
Zombies are afraid of Buddha: cancer cells are afraid of radiation therapy.
Zombies suck blood: cancer cells destroy the body and need to replenish blood.
"But when the bloodline is completely awakened, we won't need to suck blood and become the True Progenitor of zombies. Instead, we'll be in a complete half-sleep." Li Li took a deep breath. "After all, the great Immortality Blood that we lowly mortals have obtained is naturally imperfect … We, not the one and only ancient God, have to bear a terrible price.
"So, two people have to take turns to protect each other while they're asleep and become each other's guardians."
When Li Li said this, as an Earthling, he actually had goosebumps all over his body.
Wasn't this the path of the two ancient Gods back then?!! It was a perfect match!
Although the players were idiotic, their reasoning was extremely precise. Earlier on the Internet, there had been people who said that they were making things up. Even he felt indignant for them!
…
Another seven or eight days passed.
The two sides had completely merged their bloodlines, and there was no more food.
"It's time to go out. There are naturally secret passages in the traps for me to wake up and leave." Ji Shang opened an extremely secret mechanism that might lead to the periphery. "But I suspect that sentries have been set up in the periphery, and the tomb is heavily surrounded."
The two walked out of the trap layer of the tomb and arrived at the entrance of the tunnel. They sensed a lot of round covers connected to metal wires outside a pile of mud.
"What kind of mechanism is that?" Ji Shang frowned.
"It should be a vibration sensor connected to some mechanism. Let's see if your descendants love you or not. If they don't love you, a small nuclear bomb will explode instantly. If they love you, a small bomb will destroy you and force you back. That way, they might be able to survive," Li Li said.
Ji Shang frowned. "Then what should we do?"
Strength said, "You're already at the fourth level, so your spiritual will can still cast some simple spells. Cut the wires behind."
"Wires?" Ji Shang moved.
Crack.
The wires were cut first.
They dug through the soil and did not trigger any mechanisms. They arrived at the second layer, which was actually a modern laboratory corridor with white lights. This structure surprised Ji Shang, an ancient person.
"Don't worry. It might be some kind of ultraviolet mechanism. See if there are any wires or circuit boards nearby. There won't be any problems if we cut them."
The two broke through a few layers and finally arrived at the surface.
The glaring sunlight was very uncomfortable.
"What's going on?" Ji Shang felt his skin rotting. These eternal cells were extremely fragile and sensitive to this kind of energy.
"It's different from ancient times. The radiation now is too high." Li Li endured the pain and went to a small town. He obtained some umbrellas, leather, and the like and barely wrapped himself up. Only then did he feel less uncomfortable.
There were shops operating nearby.
"Beauty salons. Apply for a membership card for a 20% discount!"
A tour guide wearing a cute little red cap held a small flag. "Everyone, this is the Royal Mausoleum of Shengshan. Our greatest ancient emperor of Zhongzhou sleeps there."
…
This place seemed to be a tourist attraction.
"Wait for me." The two of them wore thick black cloaks that were made into simple radiation protection suits. They looked like people who could not be seen in the light. They went to the side of the street and bought a newspaper from a newsstand.
"What's this?" Ji Shang asked again.
"Newspaper." Li Li looked at the newspaper.
Ji Shang was very curious. He stood on the modern street with a face full of shock.
Li Li did not find it strange. "It's like Qin Shi Huang suddenly crawled out of the ground and came to the street. He looked at the modern people with a dumbfounded expression …"
Suddenly, Ji Shang pointed at a shop. "I have a feeling that something very scary has appeared there. I instinctively have goosebumps. It's very disgusting."
Li Li looked over.
It was an accessory shop that sold jade jewelry.
There was an advertisement posted on the door:
"Manwei International Ocean Shipping Company's new goods have arrived. Moonfall Stone mined from the core of Nanping's Moonfall Center. It has an auspicious aura. The Moon God Ji blesses you to ward off evil, ensure your safety, and nourish your body!"
"A Buddhist artifact that ward off evil. So that's how it is? This is the truth of history! " Li Li was shocked. He looked at the many upper-class ladies on the street. They wore ornaments around their necks. He had a feeling of wanting to stay away from them.
"Let's go!"
He felt very uneasy being surrounded by such streets. He directly went to a shadowy area with few people.
Ji Shang started reading the newspaper. Fortunately, there was not much difference between ancient and modern Chinese.
"Yunzhou's Sea Bridge. Thrilling ancient divine beast Qilin. Its entire body is covered in auspicious golden light. It's like a hanging ornament of the moon. It gives off an extremely comfortable aura!"
In the picture, a dazzling golden divine Qilin walked on the sea bridge. There was an endless stream of cars around it.
"The Falling Dragon Incident! Ancient divine beasts have been revived from ancient times. What kind of enemy did they encounter? Why did they fall? Can humans cultivate? "
A huge dragon corpse over ten meters lay on the ground. Countless onlookers were shocked.
"Divine beast? I have a feeling that it emits an extremely uneasy aura. "Ji Shang frowned." Spirit qi revival? Ancient myths and legends have been revived in modern times. Everyone cultivates? "
He read the keywords in the newspaper.
Li Li: "…"
He suddenly looked at the endless stream of people on the street. He felt very uneasy.
Damn it. What were those idiots doing recently? It was too difficult to observe secretly without going on the Internet.
