In the days that followed, Li Ling practiced internal martial arts with Gu Ziyun every day, and occasionally he would meet up with his good friend Cheng Hu for a beer and some skewers. In such a leisurely life, a month passed by unknowingly.
And so, July arrived. A few days ago, Li Ling received his graduation certificate from school and took a group photo with his classmates in their graduation gowns. His student days were over.
Given Li Ling's current lifestyle, this graduation certificate would have become dispensable, but it is, after all, a memory of four years of university, and a way to say goodbye to classmates and friends who are entering society.
As the years pass, many of them may never see each other again in their lifetime.
During this time, Li Ling also ran into his girlfriend from college. She was still as beautiful as ever, but what was gone was in the past. Li Ling offered her his blessings, and when he turned around, the two were already strangers.
Life goes on, and just when Li Ling was wondering why he hadn't had any missions since returning, the system received his wish.
"I am the first emperor of all time, who destroyed the six kingdoms and unified the Central Plains; I standardized writing, cart axles, and laws. I was determined to establish my Great Qin Empire for ten thousand generations, but alas, a shameless scoundrel plotted against me and cursed me, destroying the glory of my Great Qin in an instant."
"I am not reconciled! I will restore the glory of my Great Qin Dynasty and establish an unparalleled imperial dynasty!"
A deep, authoritative yet unwilling voice resounded in Li Ling's mind. From the man's words, Li Ling made a judgment about his identity.
Sure enough, the system voice sounded next, confirming his judgment.
"Ding! The 'Dragon Emperor' from the world of [The Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor] has made a wish: to awaken the Qin Dynasty army, unify the world, and establish an unparalleled empire. Do you wish to accept the mission?"
"Awaken the Qin army and establish an unparalleled empire," Li Ling thought to himself.
This task is neither particularly difficult nor easy.
Li Ling has watched all three Mummy movies.
The story of 【The Mummy 3: The Dragon Emperor】 is set in Egypt, where the past events have been settled, and the explorer 'O'Connor' has retired and is living a peaceful, ordinary life with his wife 'Evelyn'.
But their son, Alex, inherited his father's adventurous nature and traveled the world in search of ancient legends that were supposedly full of fantasy.
Later, they accidentally unearthed the imperial tomb, releasing the Dragon Emperor. After a fierce battle, justice prevailed over evil, and the Dragon Emperor was killed by a few ordinary people.
This is an incredibly absurd plot. The mighty Dragon Emperor was actually killed by a few ordinary people. I don't know whether to say that the Dragon Emperor was too weak or that the protagonist's halo was too strong.
Moreover, in the movie, the Dragon Emperor is portrayed as the most cruel and ruthless monarch in Chinese history, with vicious methods and a bloodthirsty nature, causing widespread resentment among the people...
Finally, the witch 'Aster' cursed the Dragon Emperor, turning him and the Qin army into terracotta warriors, burying them forever in a tomb. It wasn't until the careless Alex accidentally released the Dragon Emperor that a terrifying catastrophe was unleashed once again.
Li Ling didn't know how to comment on such a ridiculous plot. However, if Li Ling was to travel to this world to fulfill the Dragon Emperor's wish, he would definitely prevent the events in the plot from happening again.
"Accept." Without much thought, Li Ling clicked the "Accept Task" button on the system panel.
I turned on the computer, called Ziyun, and the two of us leaned back on the sofa, eating snacks and watching the movie several times, and then watching the first two movies again.
With Li Ling's photographic memory, he easily memorized the movie's content. The reason he watched it several times was simply to avoid missing any details.
"Honey, I want to travel through mission worlds this time too, okay?" Gu Ziyun stared intently at Li Ling with her big eyes, not blinking.
Every time this man travels to a new world, he finds love in that world. Her man doesn't belong to her alone, hmph! This made the witch a little jealous, and this time she was determined to follow him.
Li Ling was about to refuse, because he didn't know how long it would take to complete the mission, but a strange tremor ran through his heart, making him sense that taking Gu Ziyun with him would bring unexpected opportunities.
This feeling came inexplicably, but Li Ling's thoughts had changed. Since ancient times, martial artists have always had sudden bursts of inspiration; this is a kind of intuition belonging to martial artists.
Looking at the witch's wide, staring eyes, Li Ling pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and nodded. The 'Fountain of Youth' existed in this world; perhaps this was his destiny. He nodded at the very end, gazing into Zi Yun's expectant eyes.
"Great!" Gu Ziyun suddenly became happy and gave Li Ling a kiss on the cheek, laughing and saying, "My husband is the best, hehe."
"System," Li Ling called out to the system, then asked, "I plan to bring Ziyun with me this time, is that alright?"
The system quickly replied: "Ding, the host can bring members into the mission world. The members brought in will be reincarnated into the mission world along with the host."
"It should be noted that if the host brings other members, the system's awakening time by absorbing the energy of heaven and earth will be longer. Are you bringing Gu Ziyun with you on this journey?"
Li Ling frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Can't we use the Qiankun World to bring people?"
It's important to know that Li Ling used the Qiankun World to bring Gu Ziyun out of the [Witch World].
"Ding, there are two ways to bring members into the mission world: one is to use spatial items to bring people, and the other is through the system's reincarnation method."
The first method can only be used when the world consciousness of the world being traversed is not strong; while the second method of reincarnation completely deceives the world consciousness.
"According to systematic analysis, although the [Dragon Emperor World] is only a minor world, it is an affiliated world of the [Heavenly Dao Level World] 'Primordial World', which is a top-level world."
The Heavenly Dao consciousness of this realm controls billions of subordinate worlds, and the world consciousness is exceptionally strong. Therefore, the only way to enter this world is through the second method of reincarnation, to obtain its imprint and thus avoid being detected and erased by the Heavenly Dao consciousness.
"Ding, System Explanation: There are countless worlds in the myriad realms. These worlds are divided into various levels from high to low: [Original World of the Great Dao], [Chaotic World], [Heavenly Dao World], [Great Thousand World], [Middle Thousand World], [Small Thousand World], and even lower-level [World Seed Forms]."
Aside from the [World Seed Form] and the ultimate form [Great Dao Origin World], other world levels are further subdivided into three tiers: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The host's [Qiankun World] was in the World Seed Form before the creation of space, and even now, after creating a world, it is only a beginner-level minor world.
"Among heaven and earth and the universe, the supreme one is the 'Great Dao'. All things are born from the Great Dao, and the Great Dao controls all things. The place where the Great Dao resides is the [Original World of the Great Dao]. The Great Dao can give birth to twelve 'Supreme Laws of Chaos' and fifty 'Heavenly Daos'."
The twelve Great Laws are not outwardly manifest, but remain high above. Comprehending even one of them can lead to the 'Current Ruler Realm' or evolve into the 'Current World'.
Of the fifty Heavenly Daos, forty-nine of them took form. Some evolved into 'Heavenly Dao-level Worlds', some into 'Heavenly Dao-level Treasures', and some had several Heavenly Daos intertwined, evolving into 'Chaotic Worlds' or 'Chaotic Treasures' that were second only to 'Original Worlds'.
The remaining Heavenly Dao has vanished, known as 'the one that has vanished,' which is the origin of the saying, 'The Great Evolution is fifty, the Heavenly Dao is forty-nine, and one has vanished.'"
"And this 'escaped one' wanders through all the heavens and myriad worlds, eventually transforming into a 'system,' which is the [Myriad Worlds Wish Star System] in the host's mind. This Heavenly Dao represents the 'one thread of hope' among all things."
Furthermore, because the Great Dao comprises three thousand laws, each Heavenly Dao-level world can give rise to three thousand Great Thousand Worlds, and each Great Thousand World can give rise to three thousand Middle Thousand Worlds, and each Middle Thousand World can give rise to three thousand Lesser Thousand Worlds.
"The [Dragon Emperor World] that the host is about to enter is a minor world subordinate to the Heavenly Dao-level world [Primordial World]. The 'Heavenly Dao' in this Heavenly Dao-level world has a particularly strong world consciousness due to its fusion with 'Hongjun Daoist', and it rejects all people who are not from this world."
"If the host and its members do not obtain legal identities through reincarnation, they will be regarded as 'extraterrestrial demons' by the Heavenly Dao of this world and thus be eliminated."
"My goodness!"
