Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game-Chapter 372: Acknowledge Him as Master, Obey His Command!

Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Acknowledge Him as Master, Obey His Command!

"Your spear is ready."

Li Chunqiu picked up the newly forged Divine Weapon and handed it to Chen Lan.

Chen Lan looked at the Divine Spear, which was a mix of purple and red, feeling quite excited. He reached out to take it, and in an instant, lightning and fire erupted simultaneously from the tip and tail of the spear.

Purple electrical sparks crackled at the tail, while red flames blazed at the head. The spear even had engravings of a Thunder Dragon and a Fire Phoenix on its body, seeming to clash and battle, vividly coming to life the moment they shone with fiery light and purple electricity.

"What a terrifying aura, this Magical Treasure has grown even stronger," Chen Lan said with a grin, clearly satisfied with it.

He could feel that the Divine Spear had become stronger, at least doubling in power.

"Do you have Spiritual Fire? You can try to fuse it in," Li Chunqiu suggested.

Chen Lan nodded. He happened to have Nether Blue Flame.

In an instant, when the Nether Blue Flame fused into the Divine Spear, the flame at the tip turned a ghostly blue, and the Fire Phoenix also became ghostly blue, appearing even stronger!

"This Divine Spear can combine with various types of lightning and Spiritual Fire, greatly enhancing its power. It doesn’t have a name yet, you should name it."

"Hmm... I’m not good at naming things, let’s just call it Flame Thunder Spear." Chen Lan thought for a moment and casually came up with a name that reflected both fire and lightning, which seemed fitting.

"Not bad." Li Chunqiu nodded in agreement. In reality, the name was quite average, but what Lord Ye said went.

"Well, I shall take my leave now." Chen Lan put away the Divine Spear as he had to hurry to the Underworld and didn’t have much time left.

"Let me go with you, Guo Gangfeng won’t let it rest, he’s definitely waiting for you outside," Li Chunqiu said. His task was to wait for the Divine Sword to find its master.

Now that Chen Lan had appeared, his task was complete, so there was no need to stay in Soldier Emperor City any longer.

"No worries, if he comes, I shall deal with him." Chen Lan shook his head; with this Divine Spear, he was quite confident in defeating Guo Gangfeng.

"Lord, please let me follow you." Li Chunqiu immediately knelt again upon hearing Chen Lan say this.

He genuinely wanted to follow Chen Lan as he now had no direction and didn’t know what to do.

Upon seeing this, Chen Lan helplessly helped him up: "All right, let’s go then."

He was actually quite pleased because he had recruited a powerful Taoist Saint; Li Chunqiu’s strength was extraordinary, with presumably fourteen Dao patterns.

"I’m coming too!" the young girl exclaimed excitedly.

She had waited so long, finally meeting Chen Lan, and couldn’t bear to leave now.

Chen Lan hesitated for a moment and agreed. He knew the young girl was not simple, and there were more things to learn from her over time. Slowly, he’d interact with her and gradually get information.

Immediately, the three of them packed lightly. Li Chunqiu gathered all the treasures from the blacksmith shop, locked the doors and windows, and left with big strides.

Along the way, countless people opened their doors and windows, poking their heads out to watch Li Chunqiu and the others leave, their eyes filled with reluctance, satisfaction, happiness, and worry.

Possibly, these people all knew that Li Chunqiu had been waiting for Chen Lan, and seeing him finally achieve his wish to leave this place, they were happy for him. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

And the worry likely stemmed from Guo Gangfeng.

...

At the city gate.

Chen Lan and the others arrived at the southern city gate, then, suddenly, the closed gates swung open. A strong wind blew toward them, carrying with it a terrifying and familiar aura.

Before their eyes lay an army of thousands, along with a massive Demon Beast towering above the heavens, with Guo Gangfeng seated on its back.

"I’ve been waiting here for you all for a long time," Guo Gangfeng spoke coldly.

"Do you think I’m afraid of you just because I’ve left the shop?" Li Chunqiu remarked with a light smile.

"Whether we can defeat you will only be known after a fight!" Guo Gangfeng shouted angrily, and the thousand-strong army charged forward in an instant. With the barrier gone, their aura surged straight into the sky, overwhelming!

"A bunch of ants," Li Chunqiu said calmly, standing in front of Chen Lan: "Lord Ye, you need not act; I am enough."

After speaking, with a wave of his hand, a Heavy Hammer flew out from his sleeve and instantly grew enormous in the sky, covering the sun and the heavens!

Immediately, with a single hand, Li Chunqiu pressed down, and the Heavy Hammer descended rapidly from above, crashing down upon the thousand troops.

With just a single strike, the army was annihilated in an instant. Countless top-tier Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures shattered into pieces, mixed with endless flesh and blood, a pungent smell filled the air, and the blood mist blanketed the scene.

One strike, total annihilation!

Li Chunqiu’s strength was only beginning to show, not yet fully revealed!

Seeing the elite force he had spent ten thousand years cultivating so easily destroyed by Li Chunqiu, Guo Gangfeng was furious: "Li Chunqiu, you were once a general of Soldier Emperor City, and these men have all followed you before, yet you are so ruthless!"

"Soldier Emperor City? Heh, I haven’t been part of Soldier Emperor City since the day your father wanted to kill me," Li Chunqiu replied with a cold laugh.

Back when he was a general, the City Lord was Guo Gangfeng’s father, Guo Ming. He thought he would receive favors, only to find out through the transmission of the three Taoist Saints that his own master was the one who wanted him dead!

It was precisely because of this that he let go of the three Taoist Saints; otherwise, the story would not have been as it was, and he would have killed the three Taoist Saints.

Returning to his residence, he immediately claimed to have internal injuries and rested, actually seeking a place to lie low and start a new life.

He had indeed been injured, and thought his time was running short. Never did he expect to encounter Lord Ye, who, with a mere touch of a finger, healed him and granted him a Forging Technique, which was extremely terrifying.

Thanks to that Forging Technique, he became the first blacksmith of Soldier Emperor City, capable of casually forging Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures and even Chaos Supreme Treasures, far surpassing other blacksmiths.

In return, his task was to return to Soldier Emperor City and watch over the First Divine Sword. With the status of the first blacksmith, he easily gained Guo Ming’s trust, crafting weapons for him and showcasing his skills, leading Guo Ming to entrust the Divine Sword to him for safekeeping.

Because apart from choosing its own master, the Divine Sword was untouchable by others. Those who tried would either be severely injured or die.

In the eyes of others, it was a waste and could even be deadly. Guo Ming had no designs on it, having touched it himself and taken ten thousand years to recover.

Because of that incident, he felt safe leaving it with Li Chunqiu.

Little did he expect that his son was so eager for the Divine Sword. Even though it had chosen a master, he still wanted to kill the owner and seize the sword, completely forgetting the rule set by the Empress back then.

"Whoever can draw the Divine Sword shall be the new master of Soldier Emperor City, and all must serve him and heed his commands!"
