The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 1405 - 1406: Spanning Two Eras

Capítulo 1405: Chapter 1406: Spanning Two Eras

At this moment, Lin Qian finally understood why the Upper Origin Immortal Emperor was so anxious to send a large army to Liushui City.

The other party had discovered a way to reach the backside of the Upper Realm of Immortals, and the relics in this place were truly invaluable.

No wonder the other party was so anxious about Liushui City; it turns out they had such great fortune and opportunities.

If they were able to acquire relics from the Ancient and Ancient Times and learn from them, their strength would greatly increase, transforming their Upper Origin Immortal Country into a second-rate or even a first-rate force in the Upper Realm of Immortals.

But unfortunately, despite keeping it secret for so many years, it ultimately ended up in Lin Qian’s hands, allowing him to discover it.

Looking up at the ancient city before him, Lin Qian noticed that the city walls were naturally integrated, as if one with the land, and quite impressive.

Moreover, he felt that the city walls were anything but simple; he had the feeling but could not discern it.

The next moment, Lin Qian realized why he was just standing there observing endlessly.

Soon after, Zhuge Ming appeared beside Lin Qian through a puppet body.

After greeting Lin Qian, Zhuge Ming was instantly captivated by the ancient city in front of him and began to scrutinize it more closely.

“Ingenious craftsmanship, this technique is truly remarkable.” Zhuge Ming admired the city’s array, lamenting, though his face showed displeasure. “However, the array on this city has been broken by someone, but the technique used was coarse, extremely violent, and crude.”

Zhuge Ming’s tone was filled with mockery, disdain, and deep dissatisfaction.

Lin Qian beside him knew the reason for Zhuge Ming’s dissatisfaction was that the array on this ancient city must have significant research value.

However, after someone destroyed the integrity of the array, it left Zhuge Ming quite unhappy. An originally perfect research model was so brutally ruined by someone.

“I fear this was caused by the leader skilled in arrays from the Upper Origin Immortal Country deciphering the array,” Lin Qian said calmly. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

In the other party’s Immortal Court’s Immortal Army, there is a leader adept in arrays, which Lin Qian already knew about.

Moreover, the person’s understanding of arrays was profound, ranking among the top in the Upper Origin Immortal Country.

His presence was probably to serve the purpose of deciphering the relics at the backside of the Upper Realm of Immortals.

Zhuge Ming was carefully observing the city, pondering, combining his estimates of the Upper Realm of Immortals, and finally confirmed: “I fear this city belongs to the Ancient Times, though it also has traces of the Ancient Era.”

“Prime Minister, what do you mean by this?” Lin Ancestor curiously asked from the side.

Lin Ancestor had great respect for Prime Minister Zhuge Ming, acknowledging that he was indeed a remarkable figure with profound knowledge.

Even guiding Lin Ancestor himself was more than sufficient.

Zhuge Ming pointed at the city and began to explain: “It means that the original civilization of this city existed from the Ancient Era and continuously passed down to the Ancient Times, spanning two major eras.”

As his words fell, a gleam lit up in the eyes of Lin Qian and the others.

If what Zhuge Ming said was true, then this ancient city was indeed extraordinary.

A city passed down from the Ancient Era would be formidable; an ancient city from the Ancient Times would also be excellent.

But a city spanning two eras, the resources and gains from it would be incredibly abundant.

To be passed down from the Ancient Era without being destroyed or obsolete, and to stand firm during the Ancient Times without being destroyed.

Even after undergoing the Ancient Times, this relic is still perfectly preserved in this spot.

It shows just how powerful this city was in the past and how formidable its influence was.

Zhuge Ming rubbed his hands together, eager to decipher the array of this ancient city and explore its mysteries.

“Your Majesty, should the deciphering of this ancient city be fast or slow?” Following this, Zhuge Ming sidled up to Lin Qian with an anticipatory look.

Seeing Zhuge Ming’s demeanor, Lin Qian knew his thoughts and nodded with a smile: “Take your time; there’s no need to rush.”

The vast ancient city was right there, and it couldn’t run away, taking time to decipher it slowly posed no problem.

Zhuge Ming surely wanted to thoroughly analyze the entire array before starting to decipher it.

If they could replicate the array, that would be the best scenario.

However, this process would require time.

Therefore, he asked Lin Qian whether there was any urgency. If there were, they surely wouldn’t proceed this way.

At any rate, there was no rush, so naturally, Lin Qian wouldn’t let his subordinate be too disappointed.

Afterward, Lin Qian summoned the puppet body of Yuanshi Tianzun from Xuanhuan Star, along with many scholars, to assist in maneuvering around the ancient city.

While they were busy, Lin Qian also summoned scholars from the Fire Department and the Imperial Army to clean up the surroundings.

The backside of the Upper Realm of Immortals seemed very barren, with no trace of Soul Beasts as if they didn’t exist at all.

This puzzled Lin Qian; how could such a vast area be devoid of Soul Beasts?

Still, he pondered no further and merely had the Imperial Army guard the areas around the ancient city, without venturing deeper.

Meanwhile, the Fire Department began constructing a Jade Gate. Once the Jade Gate was completed, Lin Qian would be assured, able to destroy this spatial rift passage at any time.

This way, there would be no need to defend Liushui City, and they could retreat directly.

Lin Qian must provide the Upper Origin Immortal Emperor with a glimmer of hope, preventing him from feeling like the opportunity of the relics was eternally lost to him.

If not, the other party might fight to the death and expose the news, which would be unbeneficial to Lin Qian’s side.

As for how to proceed, Lin Qian already had a plan in mind.

Once the Jade Gate was set up, Lin Ancestor accompanied Lin Qian through the spatial rift passage and immediately rushed back to the north side relics of the Upper Realm of Immortals.

He, along with Ye Xuanyan, were very interested in analyzing and exploring the ancient city’s arrays, unwilling to leave.

The two seniors enjoyed it, and Lin Qian had no choice but to let them be.

Returning to Liushui City, Lin Qian began his plan, directing the scholars from the Heavenly Art Department to set up a large array, completely sealing the Moonlight Array of Liushui City.

However, this array was intentionally left with a flaw, at least making it possible for the Upper Origin Immortal Country to decipher it.

Even if an Array Master twice as strong as the military commander came, deciphering this array would take twenty years.

And twenty years would be enough time for Lin Qian to accomplish many things.

Everything was part of Lin Qian’s strategy, while the Upper Origin Immortal King in the Immortal Court remained oblivious, only concerned about the situation in Liushui City.
