I'm playing tricks in the world of mythology

Chapter 281 Snake Skin

The Yellow Emperor, the head of the five emperors, the leader of the ancient Chinese tribal alliance, and the co-lord of the Chinese nation in ancient times, is revered as the "ancestor of the humanities" of China.

According to myths and legends, he is the son of Shaodian and Fubao. His original surname is Gongsun, but he changed his surname to Ji later, so he is called Ji Xuanyuan.

According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor was born, he appeared to be an abnormal god. He was able to speak not long after he was born, and by the age of 15, he could already understand everything.

Five years later, the 20-year-old Huangdi succeeded to the throne of King Youxiong.

According to legend, the Yellow Emperor was named Huangdi because of his auspicious soil virtues. His great achievements in unifying the Chinese tribes and conquering the Dongyi and Jiuli tribes were recorded in the annals of history.

During his reign, he sowed hundreds of grains and plants, vigorously developed production, began to make clothes, build boats and carts, make musical rhythms, and wrote "Huangdi Neijing" and so on.

In the later years of the Yellow Emperor, he invented the tripod.

When the first tripod was cast, a nine-color real dragon suddenly flew down from the sky, and its auspicious light when it descended covered the entire sky with colorful lights.

Then the Yellow Emperor sat on the back of the dragon and ascended to heaven.

………………

After the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven, his people built a large-scale ancestral hall to commemorate him in the place where he was born, that is, Xuanyuan Hill.

At the beginning, the ancestral hall was full of incense, and there was an endless stream of worshippers every day, but as time passed, the Kunlun Mountains had a harsh climate and high mountains, and the Huaxia people began to slowly migrate to the Central Plains.

Coupled with the inconvenient transportation in ancient times, the number of people in the ancestral hall gradually became less and less, until finally, no one was seen for years.

However, the Huaxia tribe's respect for the Yellow Emperor has not diminished in the slightest. They spread word of mouth that the Yellow Emperor has made indelible contributions to the rise of the Huaxia tribe.

Even Xuanyuan Qiu was renamed Xuanyuan Tomb and became the tomb of the Yellow Emperor.

Time passed slowly, and countless years passed.

I don't know when, a legend suddenly appeared in the Xuanyuan Tomb at the foot of Kunlun Mountain——

In the deepest part of the Xuanyuan Tomb, in addition to the clothes, hats and shoes of the Yellow Emperor, there is also a tripod cast by him before he ascended to heaven on a dragon!
This tripod is called Shennong Ding, also known as Zaoshi Ding.

In ancient times, Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs for the common people, and the ancient tripod he used to refine hundreds of medicines was the Shennong tripod.

This cauldron has accumulated the energy of countless elixir, and it is said that it can refine the elixir of medicine that even the gods of the fairy world covet, and it may hide other mysterious powers.

After the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven, his trusted ministers lent the Shennong Ding to the Shennong family, and the latter buried the Shennong Ding in the Xuanyuan Tomb before returning to the ruins.

As soon as this legend appeared, it quickly caused an uproar in the entire land of China.

Can you refine a magic medicine that is rare even for gods?

Not to mention anything else, isn't the elixir of life so easy?
It has to be said that no one can resist the charm of longevity in any age!
Wave after wave of people went to Xuanyuan Tomb, vowing to dig out the Shennong Cauldron.

In fact, their original intention was not to disrespect the Yellow Emperor, but their actions had already offended the majesty of the Yellow Emperor.

So, someone disagreed.

This person, strictly speaking, is a demon fox, a demon fox that has lived for countless years.

This demon fox was favored by the Yellow Emperor in the early years, and later recognized him as the master. After the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven, everyone gradually left, but he was the only one who stayed silently at Xuanyuan Tomb, waiting for the return of his master.

At that time, it had been a long time since the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven, and the demon fox was no longer alone. He had a clan, this clan was called the demon fox clan, and he was the first patriarch of the demon fox clan.

Facing the treasure diggers who heard the news, Yaohu patiently explained that the Shennong Ding Ding was no longer in the Xuanyuan Tomb, and the Ding Ding had already disappeared.

But the treasure diggers have all traveled thousands of miles to come here, so how can they easily believe it?
They only believe what their eyes see.

Thus, negotiations broke down.

In that battle, the sky was dark and the sky was dark. Although the demon fox clan was strong, among the treasure diggers, there were also those with profound mana.

In the end, the Monster Fox Clan won miserably, and their vitality was severely injured.

But after this battle, the reputation of the Yaohu clan has been greatly improved, and the Kunlun Mountains have a radius of thousands of miles, and no one knows the Yaohu clan of the Shouling Mausoleum!

Their iron and blood methods also achieved the desired effect. For a while, no one dared to offend the majesty of the Yellow Emperor.

However, time is a very magical thing, he can erase everything, including memories of blood and tears.

A hundred years later, the legend appeared again, and another group of people came!
The negotiations still had no effect, and the war broke out again.

But the strength of the treasure diggers this time is much weaker than the first time, because among the treasure diggers, no matter whether they are human race or monster race, some of them can live for more than a hundred years.

Some of them participated in the war and survived by luck, and some of them heard rumors.

They know the strength of the demon fox clan!

And in their hearts, there is another inference——

Since the Shennong Cauldron can refine the magical medicine that is difficult for the gods to obtain easily, no matter whether it was in the Xuanyuan Tomb before, it must not be there now.

Are all gods and Buddhas in the sky vegetarian?
So with the support of this inference, even though the treasure diggers and the demon fox clan will fight every hundred years or hundreds of years, there are fewer and fewer great supernatural powers among the treasure diggers.

Until the end, only mortals remained as treasure diggers.

As long as there is a teacher, or a person with extensive knowledge, they will no longer believe this rumor.

But even so, the number of treasure diggers who died in Xuanyuan Tomb for countless years is still an astronomical number.

Originally, after the death of the treasure digger, restricted by the rules of heaven, he could only stay in Yangjian for at most seven days, otherwise his soul would be scattered. (For previous review, please click here)
But the obsession of the dead treasure digger was too deep, and all the treasure diggers had the same obsession, which added a weird aura.

For a while, not a single ghost was willing to reincarnate!

However, the rules of heaven cannot be violated.

The ghosts began to die in pieces, and the pieces were wiped out.

Finally, Xeon's resentment disturbed a mysterious existence——

Nine-color real dragon.

The real dragon carrying the Yellow Emperor to heaven.

In the middle of a night, it came to the Xuanyuan Tomb, lighting up the night, and the nine-color brilliance reflected the entire sky.

It twisted its whole body, and countless nine-colored scales fell from the sky, including black, white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.

Its dragon mouth opened wide, and a stream of energy containing longevity spewed out, instantly cutting the huge scales down to the size of a palm, and each scale contained real dragon longevity essence of different lengths.

Black, three years.

White, six years.

……

The longest one is purple, which is as high as hundreds of years! (For previous review, please click here)
After shedding countless scales, the nine-colored real dragon roared up to the sky:

"Heaven has the virtue of loving life. You were deceived by rumors and died unexpectedly. Now use this as a matchmaker. After taking it, you can shape a ghost body. But when the time limit expires, if you still persist in your obsession, you will die without a place to die!"
