Chapter 405 New Year, Worthy of Being Emperor [Subscription Request]

The mountains are covered with snow and the cliffs are towering.

At the bottom of the mountain wall, the Taoist master soared into the air and slapped the huge gate on the mountain wall with his palm.

Cao Cao also figured out how to open the door through the totem dragon.

He needs to cooperate with Dao Zun.

The ancient Xianxu scripture obtained from the fog contains the cultivation methods of the 360 ​​orifices of the human body, which vaguely corresponds to the number of days in a year.

The Taoist Master used the power he gained from practicing the Ancient Scripture of Immortal Ruins to bombard the specific location of the door.

The whole mountain was shaking.

An unimaginable powerful force gradually spread due to the shaking of the giant gate.

The Taoist master's hand slammed on the door, making a sound like a huge bell.

At a level invisible to ordinary people, the totem dragon, carrying the destiny of humanity, is hitting the gate.

The two collided continuously.

The mountain gate, which had been closed for who knows how many years, was slowly opening.

What is surprising is that such a huge stone door did not make much noise when it was opened.

The people from the Taoist and Buddhist sects were watching from below, all of them were shocked.

The door slowly opened a crack.

Compared to the size of the gate, although it is just a gap, it is three feet wide, enough for people to pass through.

Dao Zun fell from mid-air and spoke to the Totem Dragon:

"After entering this door, the two of us cannot separate. The door will close soon. If you want to reopen it, we must work together.

Otherwise, we won’t be able to open the door and we will be trapped behind it.”

"You and I will go in, and the others will wait outside, and let the Buddhists lead the way."

In fact, there was no need for them to push, as the Buddhists had already asked Ajimo to enter behind the door.

They have been exploring here for a hundred years without any progress.

The door is open and I will go in and see what's going on even if I die.

After Ajimo nodded, the Buddhists swarmed into the open door.

The last ones to enter were Dao Zun and the Totem Dragon.

Zuo Ci, Nanhua and others were ordered by Dao Zun to stay outside.

But the two of them were itching to try their luck and looked inside through the gap in the door.

As the door opens, sunlight shines through the gap into the space behind the door.

You can see a straight and flat ancient road behind the door.

The road surface seemed to be made of bronze, extending forward with no end in sight.

There was thick fog on both sides of the ancient road.

Zuo Ci peeked in through the crack in the door and understood what was happening when he saw this scene.

Digging a path from the mountain to the belly of the mountain only leads to a foggy area.

Only by opening this door can you take the right path and get through the fog.

Zuo Ci pondered over the voice of the ancient scriptures that filled the fog, teaching the method of opening the door.

What exactly was this place in ancient times? It seems that there is no prohibition on people entering!
The prerequisite is that you can open this door and possess the power to transcend the mundane.

Behind the door.

The Taoist Master and the Totem Dragon walked at the end, and in front were Ajimo and the Buddhists.

Cao Cao simultaneously saw the scene behind the door through the totem dragon.

The road behind the gate is about three meters wide. No one knows when it was built or where it leads to.

As we went deeper, the fog on both sides of the ancient road became thicker and thicker, swirling endlessly.

Only on the ancient road, there is no fog at all.

The two are clearly distinguished.

The totem dragon shrank its body at this time and stretched out its claws to land on the shoulder of the Taoist Master.

The two came to the edge of the ancient road and looked down.

The thick fog obscured my vision, making it difficult to see the details below.

"Have you noticed that the number of Buddhists in front of you is decreasing..."

"There was something in the mist, dragging the Buddhists in."

Cao Cao and Dao Zun communicated via voice.

Ahead, Buddhists also seemed to have discovered the crisis.

They each displayed their supernatural powers, chanted the name of Buddha, and their bodies glowed.

Some people even displayed supernatural powers similar to those of a multi-armed Dharmakaya, with their entire bodies glowing golden, Buddhist chants ringing, and scriptures flowing around them.

But the unknown crisis has not been eliminated.

As time goes by, the number of Buddhists continues to decrease.

What is strange is that the disappeared Buddhists all disappeared out of thin air, without any movement or trace, and suddenly disappeared.

However, Dao Zun, the Totem True Dragon did not encounter any abnormalities while moving forward on the ancient road, and the journey was unexpectedly smooth.

About half an hour later, the end of the bronze road appeared in front.

At that time, there were only seven or eight Buddhists left, including Ajimo.

The ancient road is broken ahead and has no continuation.

But standing at the end of the ancient road, you can see the scene farther away.

The fog has cleared.

There is a huge space in front of us, and at the other end is a vertical wall of a mountain, which looks like a gate tower.

There are carved beams and painted buildings on top of it, shaped like a gate!

But the wall under the door was completely flat, without any gaps or entrances.

If it is a gatehouse, there should be a road leading deeper into the building, or a gate.

However, there was only a huge stone wall ahead.

What is shocking is that there are words on the stone wall, which are ancient seal scripts that have been passed down from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, or even earlier times.

"Here, I see the true appearance of heaven and earth, open the door to the Kunlun Pantheon Palace, and fly away!"

The handwriting is majestic, like a brand, deeply rooted in people's hearts.

What is more important is the content. Is there anyone who has become an immortal or a demon here?
"That stone wall is not made of ordinary material. There is a light golden luster flowing inside. It is very likely the legendary fairy gold ancient jade."

Dao Zun's voice was also filled with shock:
"It is said that fairy gold jade is the hardest thing in the world. If it is really such a large piece of fairy gold jade, it is beyond human power to leave words on the door."

Buddhists have studied Kunlun for hundreds of years and learned that this secret place is a product of Han culture.

Most of them have learned the ancient Chinese seal script.

When seeing the writing on the stone wall, some people slowly knelt down as if worshiping gods.

Even Cao Cao felt deeply moved.

That was the emotional fluctuation brought about by witnessing a mortal body rivaling immortals and demons.

The legends of immortals and demons that have been circulating since ancient times seem to be proven true at this moment.

Who left the message?
Is there really someone like Laozi who left Hangu Pass and brought purple air with him, leaving the world and shocking future generations for thousands of years? Or is there another reason?

The place where the ancient road breaks is a hundred feet away from the stone wall in front where words suspected to be left by immortals and demons are found.

Dao Zun could do it by flying through the air. But after Cao Cao and Dao Zun came here, they both had an inexplicable enlightenment.

It is just a hundred feet away in front of the ancient road. Without the support of the ancient road, it would be extremely dangerous.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, do not cross the broken boundary of the ancient road.

How do I get there?

In Yecheng, when Cao Cao withdrew his idea, Daozun had just taken out the Three Emperors Coffin and was about to give it a try.

Cao Cao thought that after years of digging graves, he had finally found a god's tomb.

The largest tombs excavated in recent years are those in Qinling Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, the Yellow River, and Emperor Wu’s.

The four seem to be vaguely related.

Cao Cao was also extremely shocked when he thought of that line of ancient Chinese characters written in a flamboyant style.

But he quickly changed his mind.

No matter whether those words were left by the ancients or there really were people who became immortals or demons.

At least at this stage, he is not so keen on longevity.

The affairs of Kunlun were advanced by Dao Zun, and when it came to the critical moment, Cao Cao was responsible for taking a look.

His focus is on the political affairs of the Wei Dynasty.

Two days passed in a flash.

On the Spring Festival, all the civil and military officials in Cao's camp, except for the necessary guards, took a day off and went home.

A grand banquet was held at Cao's mansion, and some close ministers and old friends came one after another.

The whole city of Ye was filled with joy on this day.

Ordinary families save up for a whole year and wait for the New Year to eat meat to their heart's content.

There were countless people coming to Cao’s house to congratulate and it was quite lively.

On this day, tripod vessels will be placed in the palace.

The emperor's house symbolizes the stability of the country, peace and prosperity, and the stability of the mountains and rivers.

That evening, dancers trained by Bai Ke performed in the main hall of the mansion to entertain the guests.

It was quite lively when Cao Cao and his ministers got together.

Xun Yu sat below him and said, slightly tipsy, "Your Majesty, by this time next year, I will probably call you His Majesty."

Cao Cao laughed loudly, not trying to hide his joy.

He wanted to be emperor and never concealed it from the beginning.

The Eastern Han Dynasty squandered all its wealth.

The emperor is not meant to represent justice and cannot be replaced.

In history, Cao Cao conquered all his territory by himself. During his reign, he reached the Xianbei in the north, cracked down on powerful people, suppressed the gentry, developed agriculture, and built water conservancy projects, all of which were enough to make him the king.

Without him, the emperor would have been overthrown long ago.

He has no regrets either in history or in this world.

This year, he will take back Yizhou and take power over the world.

Speaking of the emperor, Cao Cao thought of Liu Xie who was in Yizhou.

If I ascend the throne, he can no longer be emperor.

Although he has long been dead in name only.

Yizhou.

Emperor Liu Xie suddenly shuddered.

New Year’s Eve today.

He vaguely heard the bustling hustle and bustle of people in the Yizhou Mu Mansion next door.

Liu Bei had just returned from the south and had great success in defeating Meng Huo, defeating the southern barbarian soldiers several times in a row.

Meng Huo was contacting reinforcements everywhere, preparing for another battle with Yizhou.

Liu Bei judged that if Meng Huo became entangled with the various southern barbarian tribes and was defeated again, it would be time to subdue him and make him submit to him.

This year was also a year of great gains for Liu Bei.

He returned to Ba County to deal with some matters related to the gentry, and then he had to go south again.

Emperor Liu Xie, upon learning that he had returned, summoned him to an audience several times.

Liu Bei didn't come.

Both he and Liu Xie had received news that Cao Wei had suffered a great defeat at the hands of the Xianbei in the north.

Liu Bei was busy running around and consolidating himself, so he had no time to care about the emperor.

Liu Xie's residence.

He and Kong Rong sat in the deserted palace, drinking from each other.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, tears began to roll down the emperor's face.

Kong Rong was the same. He started crying at some point.

“Everyone is taking advantage of me.

Now that I think about it, Cao Mengde was not too extreme. It was because I was in a hurry to revive the Han Dynasty that I did things without consideration. "

The emperor sobbed, "Mr. Kong, what do you think if we don't run to this remote Yizhou, and just stay in Luoyang?"

Kong Rong was stunned for a moment, frowned and said:
"How can you think like that, Your Majesty? Cao Mengde is ambitious and wants to be the emperor. After he has used Your Majesty, he will never let you go.

You forgot that he killed Concubine Dong in front of you."

"My whole family has been killed by him. I wish I could eat their flesh and burn their bones."

Kong Rong's face gradually became ferocious: "If I have the chance, I will kill him with my own hands and wipe out his entire family.

After I arrived in Yizhou, I learned that there was a kind of witchcraft in southern Xinjiang that could curse a target to death, so I paid a large sum of money to buy it.

I have been using witchcraft day and night, hoping to kill Cao Mengde and his entire family."

Before he could finish his words, he burst into tears: “But I know that these are all delusions and will not work.

Your Majesty, I feel so sad. The Kong family has been passed down for 700 years, and now it is gone."

The king and his minister hugged each other and cried bitterly.

……

Cao Cao drank a little too much last night, and all his ministers came to toast him.

He didn't use his internal energy to force out the alcohol, so he indulged himself for once.

It would be meaningless if you were awake all the time.

Cao Cao only vaguely remembered that after all the ministers left, he returned to the inner house and started to act crazy while drunk, pressing down anyone just to please himself.

His wives and concubines were afraid that he would commit murder in public, so they ran away.

He didn't know whose house he chased into, one, two, three, and his strength was still there...

Before falling asleep, Boss Cao thought with some pride that even when drunk he could still suppress his wives and concubines, which was the strength that an emperor should have.

He got up early in the morning and still felt a little dizzy.

There was a soft and fragrant jade beside her, with a faint fragrance. Cao Cao looked to the side, eh…

What did I do last night?
