Dracula was in trouble.
He had been ambushed and knocked unconscious, then robbed clean.
The Tuiben Tu he had just acquired, still warm in his hand, was snatched away, and every last possession stripped from him.
When Dracula awoke, finding himself stark naked, surrounded by a circle of middle-aged women pointing and taking frantic photos, he nearly collapsed.
The pitiable Dracula experienced the greatest social humiliation of his life, his young heart suffering unimaginable damage. Such a profound psychological scar would likely require a lifetime to heal.
Shedding tears of sorrow, Dracula fled the scene in disarray.
His heart was filled with boundless rage, questioning the absence of law and justice. What deep-seated hatred or grievance could lead someone to steal even his underwear? What kind of creature was he, utterly devoid of humanity?
Dracula vaguely recalled hearing three cackling laughs before he lost consciousness. Grinding his teeth, he vowed to find this incredibly insidious bastard and make them pay a heavy price.
The one who had struck the blow was, naturally, Ji Hanhan.
If only Dracula had lent him three hundred yuan, he wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament.
Of course, stripping Dracula was the work of Anubis. It was unclear whether this scrawny creature had a perverse sense of humor or if Dracula had failed to offer it a foot massage.
Upon obtaining Dracula's Tuiben Tu, Ji Mo finally had all seven Tuiben Tu.
"I didn't expect my luck to be this good, gathering them all so quickly."
Ji Mo took out all the Tuiben Tu and arranged them in a specific order.
The Tuiben Tu shimmered with iridescent light, emitting halos of various colors, and then the map of Xuanyuan Cave, hidden within them, appeared.
"Our ancestors were truly cunning, hiding Xuanyuan Cave in a dimensional space, with its entrance located in the void. Without the map, who could ever find it?"
Ji Mo gazed at the revealed map, filled with emotion.
Without the guidance of the Tuiben Tu, finding the location of Xuanyuan Cave would have been harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
"I'm so excited. What good things have the three Sage Emperors left for their descendants?"
Ji Mo's face was filled with anticipation. He tapped his fingertip, creating a ripple of runes, and the peculiar energy waves fully activated the seven Tuiben Tu.
In an instant.
The Tuiben Tu transformed into seven streaks of rainbow light, shooting straight up into the sky, flying towards the entrance of Xuanyuan Cave.
Rumble...
Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, clouds churned, spatial energy erupted wildly, the void trembled, and a different region revealed itself.
This commotion was immense, attracting the attention of countless people, and many deities were alerted.
Humans with Yanhuang bloodlines felt it most intensely, their bodies uncontrollably boiling with hot blood, as if they were about to ignite.
A large area of the sky was bathed in auspicious mist, filled with chaotic energy, presenting an astonishing spectacle!
"What is that? An ancient ruin, or a divine grotto?"
"It must be an extraordinary place, surely containing unimaginable fortune."
"This looks like the legendary Xuanyuan Cave. Could it be a sign that China is about to produce a new generation of Human Sage Emperors?!"
...
Many people stared wide-eyed at the sky, their voices trembling with excitement.
Even more shed tears of joy. The emergence of a new Human Emperor in China would signify something truly extraordinary.
Numerous cultivators set off immediately, heading towards the entrance of Xuanyuan Cave.
Many deities also could not restrain themselves, appearing in person, intending to contend for the opportunities within Xuanyuan Cave.
Deep beneath the Red Spider Grand Bathhouse, a colossal entity let out a wild laugh and then vanished.
"So sneaky, hiding the entrance in the void, forcing me to search the heavens and earth so laboriously."
Dracula couldn't help but curse.
He had always assumed Xuanyuan Cave would be hidden underground or deep within a mountain, which was why he had been searching like a rat underground for days, exhausting himself.
He then unleashed a torrent of curses, railing against the bastard who had stolen his Tuiben Tu.
"No swearing allowed."
A sweet, melodious voice rang out, accompanied by a tender, white hand that firmly smacked the back of Dracula's head.
Dracula, still nursing a swollen bump from the earlier blow, winced in pain from the new impact.
He felt incredibly wronged, almost to the point of tears. "Master, I am a gentleman. I wouldn't have cursed if I hadn't been pushed to my absolute limit."
The little loli said indifferently, "You should be grateful. They merely knocked you unconscious and didn't take your life. You should be thankful for their mercy. Moreover, by stealing the Tuiben Tu, didn't they help us find the entrance to Xuanyuan Cave? Inadvertently, they saved you a lot of wasted effort."
Dracula was stunned by her words.
After the little loli's analysis, it seemed he had actually benefited.
But that wasn't right. What about his swollen head and the unforgettable social humiliation? Should he just let it go?
"Prepare yourself. Once the chaotic spatial energies at the entrance stabilize, it will be time to enter Xuanyuan Cave. I hope to find the Pangu blood I need inside."
The little loli sighed softly, her sole focus on finding the Pangu blood.
Only by absorbing the Pangu blood could her physical problems be resolved, allowing her to grow into an adult.
At this moment, she could only hope that some Pangu blood remained within Xuanyuan Cave; otherwise, she would have to take a tremendous risk and venture into the First Emperor's tomb.
Unless absolutely necessary, she truly did not want to tamper with the First Emperor's tomb, as she had a painful experience of being struck on the forehead with a yellow talisman by an old Taoist priest, forcing her to hop around as a child laborer for ten years. It was a tragic period.
Dracula showed a look of concern. "Master, with such a massive commotion now, those greedy deities will likely swarm here like flies. If you are discovered by them, your situation could be perilous."
The little loli was a legend of eternal youth, like the Tang Monk's flesh in the eyes of the gods, whom everyone wanted to devour.
If the gods discovered the little loli, they would surely attack her ruthlessly.
Although the little loli was powerful, she was ultimately alone and outnumbered. Furthermore, if the God Kings were alerted, it would become extremely dangerous.
Based on Dracula's rational analysis, it would be best to stay out of this mess.
After all, no one knew what the environment inside Xuanyuan Cave would be like. Once trapped within, they would be like fish on a chopping block, at the mercy of others.
However, the little loli refused to listen, her deep obsession with growing up unwavering.
As time passed, more and more cultivators gathered, many of them with foreign faces.
Due to the blessings bestowed by the deities, the number of powerful foreign cultivators was indeed astonishing, giving them an advantage.
And many foreign deities had also arrived. Although they did not reveal themselves, remaining hidden within the high-altitude clouds, the vast divine power they emanated still instilled awe in the assembled cultivators, who dared not even breathe heavily.
"So many fools have arrived, daring to covet Xuanyuan Cave. They're simply tired of living. Master, shall we round them all up?"
Anubis smacked its lips, its eyes fixed on the deities hidden deep within the clouds, drooling.
In its eyes, these were all ingredients.
Ji Mo, however, did not possess such malice. This was because Li Er had once said that to obtain items within Xuanyuan Cave, one had to withstand corresponding trials. Only by enduring these trials would one be worthy of obtaining the fortune.
Sages advocated for teaching without discrimination, and Sage Emperors promoted meritocracy. With the apocalypse approaching, giving them a fair chance to compete was not unreasonable.
Perhaps it was also an opportunity to select some outstanding individuals, inscrib them onto the Investiture of the Gods, and preserve them as the final spark of humanity's inheritance.
After a long while.
Within the void, the chaotic power dissipated, and a ethereal entrance appeared.
"Xuanyuan Cave has opened! Charge!"
