Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

Wei Xiaobao performed the "Hanshan Fist", gathering all his strength in his hands. The power of the five symbols surged out and condensed into an indestructible fist force, and he struck with all his strength, hitting the altar.

"boom--"

The fist smashed hard on the altar, and a deep dent the size of a bowl appeared on the surface of the altar. However, for this huge altar with an area of ​​50 square meters, such damage was like a mosquito bite on the skin and was almost negligible.

Wei Xiaobao's heart trembled. It seemed that the material of this altar was far from comparable to ordinary stone. It must be some extremely hard and rare treasure.

Since the power of his fists was not enough to shake the altar, Wei Xiaobao tried other methods.

He quickly took out several large boxes of grenades from the system space. These grenades flashed cold light in the dark underground palace.

Without hesitation, he stuffed the grenades one by one into the holes in the center of the altar where the Netherworld incense was inserted. Each grenade was like a dormant poisonous snake, waiting for the moment to explode.

Wei Xiaobao cleverly strung together the pull tabs of hundreds of grenades with a long rope. He retreated to a safe position about fifty or sixty meters away from the altar, held his breath, and prepared to detonate the grenades.

Wei Xiaobao took a deep breath and then pulled the rope hard.

Five seconds later, there was a loud "boom" and the deafening explosion echoed in the underground palace.

The altar was instantly shattered into pieces by the shock wave of the explosion, with fragments flying everywhere. The underground palace was shaking, as if the entire space was trembling.

The power of the explosion caused the underground palace hall to shake, and cracks began to appear above the altar, threatening to collapse at any time.

Seeing this, Wei Xiaobao rushed forward without hesitation, quickly picked up the crystal coffin, and ran towards the passage.

His heart was beating like a drum, but his steps were steady. He knew that at this moment, every second was crucial.

When he ran to the hall where the Third Army was located, the hall and passage at the altar had completely collapsed and was in a mess.

Fortunately, although the hall shook a few times, it did not collapse. Otherwise, if the hall collapsed, the Third Route Army in the hall would be buried in the underground palace, and Wei Xiaobao would regret it for the rest of his life.

At this time, the soldiers of the three armies were still standing there in a daze, their consciousness seemed to be trapped by a mysterious force and they had not yet recovered from the previous shock.

Wei Xiaobao was not impatient, because he knew that according to the system's instructions, they still had to wait for six hours.

So he leisurely turned his gaze to the crystal sarcophagus in front of him.

Without the talisman on the altar blocking the view, the situation inside the coffin was clearly displayed to Wei Xiaobao.

To his surprise, the coffin contained not the legendary mother goddess Izanami, but the body of an old man with an immortal appearance.

Not only did the corpse not show any signs of decay, but it was glowing a faint reddish glow, as if it still retained the vitality it had in life, and looked lifelike.

Wei Xiaobao looked at the old man's face carefully and suddenly felt that he looked familiar. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Could this body be Xu Fu's body?

In order to verify his guess, Wei Xiaobao quickly closed his eyes and began to search for Xu Fu's inherited memory in his mind.

The thrilling scene of that day reappeared in his mind, and Xu Fu's soul danced wildly in the Penglai fairyland, trying to invade his body. However, with the intervention of the system, Xu Fu's soul was finally completely destroyed, and Wei Xiaobao was lucky enough to absorb Xu Fu's memory.

After some searching, Wei Xiaobao finally found the memory of the corpse.

It turned out that the body of the old man with an immortal look was indeed the flesh and blood of Xu Fu.

During his lifetime, Xu Fu left his homeland and traveled to Japan in pursuit of the art of immortality.

When Xu Fu arrived in Japan, there was no mature civilization system on this land.

The native ethnic groups in Japan were still living in a primitive tribal state of slash-and-burn agriculture. There were neither written records nor any form of state.

Faced with such a situation, Xu Fu felt that if he wanted to consolidate his rule on this land, he must rely on a force beyond reality to unify thoughts and rally people's hearts.

So Xu Fu used his wisdom to make up a series of mythological stories.

He created the mythological images of the father god Izanagi and the mother god Izanami, as well as the supreme Amaterasu. Through the spread of these mythological stories, Xu Fu successfully endowed this primitive land with a mysterious and solemn religious color.

Xu Fu proclaimed himself Emperor Jimmu, the son of Amaterasu. This move not only demonstrated his authoritative status, but also invisibly strengthened his rule over Japan.

It is worth mentioning that Xu Fu’s choice of the title “Emperor” seemed to be inspired by Qin Shihuang’s enthronement.

After Xu Fu's first attempt to cross the sea to the east failed, he was almost beheaded by Qin Shi Huang for incompetence, so he was naturally full of dissatisfaction and resentment. Therefore, he called himself the emperor, which seemed to be a hint of competing with Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor.

The altar on Jianshan Mountain was not built by the sea god Susanoo to save his mother as the legend goes, but was actually built by Xu Fu for himself. This altar not only witnessed Xu Fu's political wisdom, but also carried his desire to pursue immortality.

The body lying in the crystal coffin is Xu Fu's real body. The body is well preserved and seems to be able to wake up at any time.

The other corpse lying in the third courtyard of Penglai Fairyland was one of Xu Fu's disciples whose soul took over his body after his death. This disciple once had a good cultivation and strength, but under Xu Fu's possession, his soul and body finally merged into one, becoming the vessel for Xu Fu's rebirth.

As for the SS-level soul body called Yino, he was not a native of Japan. According to Xu Fu's memory, he fell to Japan with a meteorite. Because he lost his memory and was rejected by this world, he was often struck by lightning.

After Xu Fu discovered him, he sealed him in a mechanical beast and arranged for him to be the guardian of the altar of the mother goddess Izanami.

In fact, Xu Fu was impressed by Yine's strength and immortal soul, and hoped that he could become the protector of his real body.

As for the foggy forest and the dead lake, they were tricks created by Xu Fu to make the world believe that this was the altar set up by the sea god Susanoo to save his mother.

However, Xu Fu's wishful thinking ultimately failed.

He probably never thought that a person named Wei Xiaobao would appear two thousand years later and ruin his plan completely.

The appearance of this nemesis shattered Xu Fu's dream of achieving immortality by taking over another's body and coming back to life!

It is worth mentioning that Xu Fu's real body is a strong man at the peak of the foundation building realm. He is only one step away from forming a pill. This is the highest level of cultivation that Wei Xiaobao has ever seen. It would be a pity to throw it away, but keeping it might come in handy someday.

The crystal coffin is an extremely rare treasure that can nourish the soul and keep the body immortal.

Thinking of this, Wei Xiaobao put the crystal coffin and Xu Fu's real body into his system warehouse.

Perhaps one day in the future, Wei Xiaobao will use these resources to uncover more secrets of the world of cultivation.
