Chapter 84

May the Heavenly Mandate Blessed Us for Eternity

boom!

The moment the yellow cloth was lifted.

The entire underground cavern seemed to tremble.

It was not a physical earthquake.

Rather, it is a tremor that originates from the depths of the soul.

It's like a sleeping giant suddenly turning over.

Jiang Han was the first to be affected.

The purple aura seemed to have a life of its own, frantically drilling into his arm.

heat!

Scalding hot!

This power is a hundred times more domineering than the mermaid lanterns from before!

It carried an air of superiority, looking down upon all living beings, as if it wanted to force Jiang Han to his knees.

"snort!"

Jiang Han snorted coldly.

His knees were slightly bent, but he stubbornly held on.

The Qilin bloodline within him was instantly enraged.

You think you can suppress me with just a mere inanimate object?

I dare to ride a living dragon, why would I be afraid of a stone like yours?

"Behave yourself!"

Jiang Han let out a low roar, and golden light shone brightly from his palm.

The Qilin tattoo seemed to come alive, transforming into a fiery red streak that crashed violently into the purple aura.

Om-!

A buzzing sound came from the air.

The purple aura was forcibly suppressed and obediently shrank back into the cube.

The light dissipated.

The thing finally revealed its true form.

A jade seal.

It is about the size of a palm, smooth and lustrous, with a greenish-blue hue and a faint halo around its surface.

Above the jade seal are carved five intertwined dragons.

The dragon's head is held high, its claws are sharp, and every scale is lifelike, as if it will take off at any moment.

And in one corner of the jade seal.

A piece is missing.

It was repaired by inlaying gold.

Gold inlaid with jade!

Jiang Han reached out and picked it up.

Shen.

It feels extremely heavy.

This is not just the weight of the jade, but more like it carries a heavy history and the destiny of the land of China.

He turned the jade seal over and looked at the bottom.

Eight large seal script characters immediately catch the eye.

[By the mandate of Heaven, may your life be long and prosperous.]

Each of these eight characters looks as if it were carved with a sword, exuding an aura of domineering arrogance.

This is the most mysterious, most prestigious, and also the bloodiest treasure in Chinese history.

The Imperial Seal of the State!

It was crafted from the He Shi Bi jade by Qin Shi Huang and passed down through the Qin, Han, Wei, Jin, Sui, and Tang dynasties...

Countless emperors fought bloody battles for it.

Gaining it symbolizes that one has "received the mandate of heaven," while losing it signifies that one's "fate has run its course."

It is more than just a stone.

It is a symbol of imperial power, proof of legitimacy, and a totem of the entire nation!

The live stream was completely silent for three seconds.

then.

The barrage of comments exploded like a nuclear blast.

"Everyone stand up!!!"

"I knelt down! I really knelt down! I just knelt down involuntarily while looking at my phone!"

"By the mandate of Heaven! May your reign be long and prosperous!" These eight words fill me with fervor!

"This is the real deal! This is absolutely genuine! You can feel the aura it exudes even through the screen!"

"My God! The Imperial Seal of the State, which had been missing for a thousand years, has actually been found by God Jiang!"

"This is like digging up Qin Shi Huang's identity card!"

Inside the highest command center of Bureau 749.

General Li Zhenhua suddenly stood up, knocking the chair behind him to the ground.

He stared intently at the large screen, his hands, which had weathered countless storms, now trembling slightly.

"quick……"

His voice was hoarse, with a hint of barely concealed excitement.

"Notify the highest levels! A Level One Urgent Report!"

"The Imperial Seal of the State has been unearthed!"

"At all costs! Even if we have to turn Kunlun Mountain upside down, we must bring Jiang Han... no, Consultant Jiang and the Imperial Seal back safely!"

"This is the destiny of our nation! This is the soul of our Chinese people!"

at the same time.

Suddenly, countless comments with official verification appeared in the live stream.

[The Palace Museum]: [Mr. Jiang! Please protect these cultural relics! They are priceless! We are willing to pay any price!]

[National Museum of China]: [This must be added to the National Museum's collection! This is a national treasure! Mr. Jiang, you are a national hero!]

[British Museum]: [Mr. Jiang, we are willing to offer £10 billion...]

【roll!!!】

[Foreign devils, get out!]

This is a treasure of our Chinese nation, what's it to you!

【You dare to buy our Imperial Seal?】

The barrage of comments instantly turned into a patriotic frenzy.

All foreign IPs that attempted to bid were instantly drowned out by the criticism of hundreds of millions of Chinese netizens.

Jiang Han looked at the jade seal in his hand, then at the frenzied barrage of comments.

He laughed suddenly.

He laughed casually, even with a hint of nonchalance.

He tossed the imperial seal in his hand—

This single action caused the hearts of countless experts watching on screen to stop abruptly.

"Oh my god! Don't throw it away! That's jade!"

"Even if I sold you, I couldn't afford to pay for it if it broke!"

Jiang Han caught the jade seal and raised an eyebrow at the camera.

"What's all the noise about?"

"They're all getting excited, it's just a rock, isn't it?"

He pointed to the characters on the bottom of the jade seal.

"See? We are ordained by Heaven."

"This is just an ID card."

"It was used by the emperor to prove that he was the one who officially authorized the product."

"Now that it's in my hands..."

He paused, then his tone became extremely arrogant.

"Then can I say that the Kunlun Mountains are now under my jurisdiction?"

"What's wrong?"

"You lot, you want to check my household registration?"

"Haha, just kidding! We should respect our ancestors, especially our fascinating ancestor, Qin Shi Huang!"

"Stand up, respect!"

Indeed!

mad!

This is outrageous!

But at this moment, looking at that man holding the jade seal, standing in the ancient tomb, with myths and legends beneath his feet.

Surprisingly, no one thought he was bragging.

That instant.

His aura actually merged with that jade seal.

It was as if he were the king who had been ordained by heaven!

however.

Just as Jiang Han was playing with the jade seal, preparing to put it into his pocket—that is, the system space.

【Ding!warn!warn! 】

[Displacement of the talisman detected!]

[The seal has been broken!]

Subterranean creatures are awakening! Danger level: SSS!

Jiang Han's expression changed slightly.

Before he could react...

Rumble, rumble—!

The stone platform beneath their feet suddenly began to shake violently.

The flame of the merman's eternal lamp suddenly shot up three meters high and turned blood red!

Followed by.

A roar powerful enough to shatter the soul exploded from beneath the stone platform where the jade seal had been placed, deep underground!

"roar------!!!"

That sound.

It's not comparable to that corpse dragon from before.

It carries endless anger, resentment, and the madness of someone imprisoned for a thousand years.

The entire cave was shaking, and loose rocks were falling down.

The stone platform collapsed.

A surge of black, malevolent energy erupted like a volcanic eruption!

Jiang Han grabbed the imperial seal and retreated rapidly.

"Goodness."

"You're getting all worked up because you're using my ancestor's ID card?"

He stared at the billowing black gas, his fighting spirit growing stronger rather than weaker.

"OK."

"Now that you're awake, let's come out and have a chat."

"I want to see what's lying underneath!"
