Chapter 251 Seemingly Real, Seemingly Dreamlike
After a long silence, Emperor Xuanyuan spoke again: "Did you come to Fire Cloud Cave this time to search for the True Dragon Origin Qi?"
The Emperor wields the Xuanyuan Sword, which is like another pair of eyes to him. He knows everything about Lin Fei's background, so Lin Fei's purpose in coming here is naturally not hidden from him either.
Therefore, Lin Fei did not hide anything and answered honestly, "Replying to senior, I have come here for the True Dragon Origin Qi."
According to the Hidden Sword Elder, the True Dragon Origin Qi can not only completely repair the damage to the Xuanyuan Sword, but it is also of great use to the Hidden Sword Elder himself.
“Indeed, the Xuanyuan Sword was severely damaged back then. Apart from the True Dragon Origin Qi, there was nothing else in the world that could repair it.” Emperor Xuanyuan nodded and said, “It is fate that your Li family obtained the Xuanyuan Sword. Giving you this True Dragon Origin Qi to repair the Xuanyuan Sword is only right.”
Before Lin Fei could even express his gratitude, Emperor Xuanyuan preemptively looked at Lin Fei with a half-smile and asked, "Do you know who I am?"
His question left Lin Fei completely stunned: "Senior, aren't you one of the Three Sovereigns of antiquity, Emperor Xuanyuan?"
Could it be that the person in front of him is not Emperor Xuanyuan, one of the Three Sovereigns of antiquity? That would truly be a huge joke played on Lin Fei.
"Of course I am the Heavenly Emperor Xuanyuan, one of the Three Sovereigns of antiquity." Xuanyuan's smile was quite unfathomable as he chuckled and said, "Or rather, I was the Heavenly Emperor Xuanyuan when I was alive. But now, the Heavenly Emperor Xuanyuan has been dead for countless years."
Seeing that Lin Fei was still somewhat puzzled, he continued, "What you see now is just a wisp of my spiritual energy from when I was alive, which is being forcibly extended by the True Dragon Origin Qi."
“If I were to give you the True Dragon Origin Qi, I fear I wouldn’t be able to preserve even this physical body.” Only then did he reveal his true meaning: “Tell me, why should I give you this True Dragon Origin Qi?”
If it were Emperor Xuanyuan who truly didn't want to give the True Dragon Origin Qi to Lin Fei, he would have simply refused. Lin Fei wouldn't dare to snatch something from the hands of the Three Ancient Emperors. However, instead of refusing directly, he uttered these words, and Lin Fei's eyes darted around, already understanding his intention.
"Senior, if you have any instructions, please just give them to me. I will do my best to fulfill them," Lin Fei said respectfully. In his opinion, the reason why Emperor Xuanyuan said such things in a roundabout way was not because he did not want to give him the True Dragon Origin Qi, but because he wanted him to pay a certain price in exchange for it.
Seeing how sensible Lin Fei was, Emperor Xuanyuan Ye was very pleased and nodded repeatedly: "That's right, I do have something I want you to do for me. If you agree, I will offer you the True Dragon Origin Qi with both hands."
At this point, Emperor Xuanyuan sighed and said, "Originally, this matter should have been done by myself. However, my heart is dead, and even the True Dragon Origin Qi cannot sustain this crippled body for long. Therefore, this matter can only be entrusted to you."
Something that could be taken seriously by someone as important as Emperor Xuanyuan must be extraordinary. Therefore, Lin Fei did not agree immediately, but said, "Senior, please give your instructions. I will do my utmost to accomplish your task."
"Indeed, he is a steady and reliable person. Only then can I entrust him with my duties with peace of mind." Emperor Xuanyuan nodded in satisfaction. If Lin Fei had agreed immediately, he would have been less at ease. Lin Fei's composure in the face of the temptation of treasures was the mark of someone who could be entrusted with important responsibilities.
"Alright, then I will hand over the True Dragon Origin Qi to you!" As he spoke, two beams of white light shone from Emperor Xuanyuan's eyes.
At the same time, a halo of light rose from the top of his head.
The two beams of white light landed on Lin Fei, and he was completely immobilized, as if under a spell. Even his consciousness began to fade.
At this moment, Lin Fei couldn't even ignite the Lesser Thousand Talisman given to him by the Hidden Sword Elder with his spiritual power. Fortunately, Emperor Xuanyuan seemed to have no ill intentions towards him whatsoever. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't even have had a chance to escape and would have died here.
The power of the Three Sovereigns of antiquity was indeed beyond Lin Fei's imagination. This Emperor Xuanyuan had been dead for countless years. According to him, he was only preserving a sliver of his former intelligence through the power of the True Dragon Origin Qi, and couldn't sustain it for much longer.
The current strength of Emperor Xuanyuan is probably less than one ten-thousandth of what it was during his lifetime. Even so, killing Lin Fei would still be as easy as crushing an ant. The strength of these ancient gods is truly beyond my imagination.
……
In a daze, Lin Fei felt the scene before him shift, as if he had entered a completely different space-time. When the feeling subsided and Lin Fei regained his senses, he found himself still in the Fire Cloud Cave. The layout and decorations of the Fire Cloud Cave were not much different from before. However, the Heavenly Emperor Xuanyuan, who should have been in front of Lin Fei, had disappeared, and he didn't know where he had gone.
Not only did the Heavenly Emperor Xuanyuan disappear, but the two huge skeletons of the Earthly Emperor Shennong and the Human Emperor Fuxi, who were originally beside him, also disappeared.
"Am I... dreaming?" It took Lin Fei a while to finally come to his senses.
The abilities of Emperor Xuanyuan were simply beyond his comprehension. Not to mention himself, even the world's number one master, the Hidden Sword Elder, might not be able to gain any advantage over this wisp of Emperor Xuanyuan's remnant soul.
If even a mere remnant of Emperor Xuanyuan's soul is this powerful, one can only imagine how formidable the Emperor at his peak would be. And how powerful must someone be to kill the three emperors of Heaven, Earth, and Man all within their own cave dwelling?
Lin Fei vaguely felt that he had probably underestimated the task that Emperor Xuanyuan wanted to entrust to him.
Lin Fei wanted to know what had happened, but to his surprise, he found that although he was conscious, his body was still not obeying his commands.
Just like a normal person experiencing sleep paralysis, although they feel that their consciousness is clear, their body is completely unable to move. Lin Fei's current situation is no better.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from outside the Fire Cloud Cave.
