Gu Changge looked at the Quasi-Emperor black dragon before him. Although cowardly, its eyes were sincere and full of motivation. His heart stirred slightly.
As a transmigrator, he had a natural fondness and sentimental attachment to creatures like dragons deep in his bones.
A genuine, majestic black dragon—if it could be tamed as a mount to roam the Nine Heavens, it would seem much more interesting than simply using it as an ingredient, and it would definitely show off his status better.
Hmm... A Quasi-Emperor cultivation base is barely acceptable for a mount. It wouldn't be too embarrassing to take out.
Gu Changge rubbed his chin, pondering to himself, Still, it is a bit low. My mount should at least be a Great Emperor to be presentable.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes to look at the Quasi-Emperor black dragon, who was secretly breathing a sigh of relief after its declaration of loyalty was tacitly accepted. He casually took out two items from his system space.
As soon as these two items appeared, there were no earth-shattering phenomena, but they caused the laws of the entire small world to slightly tremble and resonate, as if welcoming their arrival.
The first item was an irregular stone. It looked unadorned and ordinary, yet it was incredibly heavy, as if bearing the weight of the entire universe.
Within the stone, phantoms of swirling galaxies and the birth and death of all things could be seen. Faintly, one could hear the grand tidal sounds of sentient beings praying and the changing of eras—the Destiny Stone.
This stone was the ultimate crystallization of a great world's karmic luck. Fusing with it was akin to wielding a portion of destiny, making breaking through realm barriers as easy as walking on flat ground.
Even Gu Changge did not have many of such stones—only a few dozen.
The second item was a miniature nine-tiered jade platform, crystal clear and naturally endowed with Daoist charm.
The jade platform spontaneously inhaled and exhaled an unimaginably vast amount of spiritual energy and law fragments. Cultivating on it for a moment was comparable to ten thousand years of secluded cultivation in the outside world—the Myriad Manifestations Dao Enlightenment Platform. This platform was a supreme auxiliary treasure for tempering the divine soul and condensing the laws of the Emperor Dao.
The moment these two items appeared, the laws of the entire small world resonated slightly.
Seeing as you have some comprehension, and though you are timid, you at least understand the circumstances.
Gu Changge's tone was flat, as if he were merely tossing out a few jelly beans. These things are for you. Cultivate well right here. Break through to the Great Emperor Realm... as soon as possible.
Wh-what?!
The black dragon's massive eyes instantly widened into perfect circles. It jerked its huge head up, even forgetting its reverence, its voice becoming sharp and distorted from extreme shock and disbelief.
The G-Great Emperor Realm?! Lord... You... Are you saying... you want me to... become a Great Emperor?!
It felt like it was dreaming. No, even in its dreams, it would not dare to dream of such a thing!
From Quasi-Emperor to Great Emperor seemed like just a single step, but in reality, it was the distance between the mortal dust and the heavens; it was a fundamental metamorphosis of the life level!
Throughout history, how many stunningly brilliant Quasi-Emperors could only look up at that heavenly gate for their entire lives, eventually passing away in regret!
A Great Emperor! That was a supreme existence that truly controlled the Great Dao and overlooked the rise and fall of eras!
In the entire Xuanhuang Great World, a new Emperor had not been born for tens of thousands of years! Yet the Lord spoke of it so... casually?!
Gu Changge glanced at it, as if to say, Is there a problem?
This place is a realm of its own. The laws of the Great Dao are more complete and sound, and the spiritual energy is inexhaustible. Coupled with these resources, if you still cannot become an Emperor...
Gu Changge paused. Although he did not finish his sentence, the faint implication made the scales all over the black dragon's body stand on end.
If you still cannot become an Emperor, then you probably really only deserve to be an ingredient.
The black dragon instantly understood!
Immense ecstasy and unprecedented pressure overwhelmed it at the same time!
I can! I definitely can! Please rest assured, Lord! This little dragon will definitely do its utmost, spit blood and tear out its heart. If I do not achieve the Great Emperor Realm, I will never... never leave seclusion!
It kowtowed, banging its head loudly, so excited that it was babbling incoherently.
Becoming a Great Emperor! This was a supreme glory and realm that it had never even dared to imagine in the past!
And now, the Lord had actually given it hope and a path! Gu Changge nodded in satisfaction. He was just about to brand it with a mount's mark when he suddenly remembered something and softly clicked his tongue.
From now on, I will call you Little... I almost forgot, there is already a Little Black at home.
He thought of the Golden-Winged Great Peng, whose true form was incredibly terrifying, that always squatted on his shoulder to doze.
His gaze swept over the black dragon, whose entire body was pitch-black with scales reflecting a dark golden luster. He pondered for a tenth of a second, then clapped his hands and said casually, Never mind. Since it is called Little Black, from now on... you shall be called Little White.
The Quasi-Emperor black dragon: ...Huh???
Little White???
It looked down in disbelief at its profound and domineering pure black scales, which looked exactly like the standard equipment of a big villain boss, and then looked up at the Lord's unquestionable expression. Its dragon face was filled with bewilderment.
I... I am so black... and I am called Little White?
But it immediately reacted. A name was not important! A name bestowed by the Lord was a heaven-sent favor! Let alone being called Little White, even if it were called Little Flower or Little Loach, it would have to accept it with joy!
Yes! Yes! Thank you for bestowing this name, Lord! Little White... Little White likes it very much! From now on, this little dragon is the Lord's Little White!
It tried hard to make its tone sound full of pleasant surprise and gratitude, even though its heart felt a tiny bit chaotic regarding this highly contrasting name.
Gu Changge watched this majestic black dragon being forced to accept the name Little White, and a wicked smile curved the corners of his mouth.
Mhm, Little White, cultivate well. Become an Emperor soon, so you can come out... and pull my carriage.
With that said, he spoke no more. With a thought, he once again accelerated the time-space flow rate in that area and sent down more fragments of Great Dao comprehension, sprinkling them around Little White like a blessing of rain.
The Quasi-Emperor black dragon—no, now the Great Emperor reserve mount Little White—felt the cultivation environment around it instantly become even denser, as well as those few supreme resources that made its soul tremble, and it kowtowed deeply once more.
Looking in the direction the Lord had disappeared, its heart was filled with endless gratitude, immense pressure, and a slight urge to complain about its name.
But in the end, all its emotions transformed into monstrous motivation!
Roar! To avoid becoming an ingredient! To pull the carriage! For the Great Emperor Realm! Charge, Little White!
It let out a dragon's roar full of fighting spirit and plunged headlong into the chaotic source energy, beginning its frantic cultivation.
It made up its mind that even if it had to risk its dragon life, it would achieve the Great Emperor Realm as soon as possible. It absolutely could not let down the Lord's high expectations!
Gu Changge weighed the crystal-clear piece of Quasi-Emperor dragon meat in his hand and nodded in satisfaction.
With this quality, it would be absolutely superb whether sliced for hotpot or used for barbecue.
However, having just the main course was not enough; he needed some side dishes to make it complete.
His figure flashed, and he appeared deep in the back mountain of the Purple Bamboo Peak.
Gu Changge's divine sense swept out like quicksilver pouring across the ground.
Very quickly, he locked onto a few targets. One was a Vermillion Bird divine fowl preening its feathers by a spiritual spring, its entire body looking like burning flames. Its bloodline was extraordinary, having already reached the Saint King Realm. Its tail feathers radiated flowing light and vibrant colors, said to contain a trace of the true meaning of Nirvana.
Another was a Seven-Colored Divine Elk dozing in a mountain stream. It looked like an elk but had seven-colored coral jade antlers on its head. It was also at the Saint King Realm. Its velvet antlers were a supreme great medicine, and its flesh and blood were also a massive tonic.
There was also a Lightning Rabbit gnawing on Golden Thunder Bamboo in the bamboo grove. Although its strength was slightly lacking, having only just stepped into the Saint Realm, it was incredibly fast. Its meat was tender and infused with natural lightning spiritual energy, making it a prime choice for a satisfying meal.
"Hmm, gathering enough for four dishes and a soup should just about do it."
Gu Changge calculated in his mind. He didn't bother to conceal his aura, simply strolling over in a leisurely manner.
After a bout of utter chaos, he skillfully harvested the ingredients he needed, casually tossed down a few spirit fruits as compensation, and turned to leave, thoroughly satisfied.
Left behind in the wind were a few wails of grief and indignation, which oddly carried a faint hint of anticipation.
"Curse him... he's here to terrorize us again!"
"My feathers!"
"My antlers!"
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
