Wu Liang admitted that compared to Director Long, he knew relatively little about historical knowledge, but he was still aware of classic historical events like Emperor Qin Shi Huang burning books and burying scholars and sending Xu Fu to seek the Elixir of Immortality across the seas.

If he had heard about these things in class in the past, he might have even laughed and joked about how Emperor Qin Shi Huang was so afraid of death that he believed in such things as the Elixir of Immortality.

But now, this legendary emperor was standing alive right in front of him.

And he had pulled out something that seemed to be the genuine Elixir of Immortality.

The visual impact was simply unimaginable!

Even though Wu Liang and Director Long had almost no desire for worldly possessions anymore, in the face of this legendary Elixir of Immortality, or perhaps one could even call it an Immortal Pill...

The two couldn't help but feel slightly parched.

"Could this thing... possibly be real? Your Majesty, why didn't you choose to consume the Elixir of Immortality if you actually found it back then?" Director Long asked after taking several deep breaths to calm his emotions.

There were rumors that Xu Fu indeed found the Elixir of Immortality and sent someone back to have an alchemist craft it into an Immortal Pill. However, since there was only one pill, they couldn't afford to let others try it.

The First Emperor feared the Immortal Pill might be poisonous and never consumed it. Even at the time of his death, the pill was buried alongside his body in his tomb.

But this kind of rumor lacked credibility, and Director Long had always treated it as a joke in the past.

"This elixir is not meant to be consumed by flesh and blood, I have seen the consequences of taking this elixir." Emperor Qin Shi Huang said blandly, casually tossing the Elixir of Immortality onto the platform in front of the dragon throne.

His words left both of them stunned.

Emperor Qin Shi Huang had seen the consequences of taking the Elixir of Immortality? Could there be more than one of these pills?

Perhaps seeing the confusion in their eyes, Emperor Qin Shi Huang once again reached into his sleeve and actually took out another Elixir of Immortality with the same silvery patterns right before their eyes!

"I can have as much of this elixir as I want, but it is not a treasure that grants immortality and longevity; it is a deadly poison." Emperor Qin Shi Huang said somewhat wistfully, "Anyone who tests this elixir will die from their bodies exploding within half an hour, without exception."

At this point, Wu Liang also felt puzzled and stepped forward to ask, "Then how can Your Majesty be sure those Fierce Ghosts are after this elixir?"

"Because this place was once teeming with ghosts. It took me decades with my army to clear them out and build Apang Palace atop countless bones. Those filthy creatures are extremely greedy for the Elixir of Immortality, I'm well aware."

Emperor Qin Shi Huang accidentally revealed another incredible situation.

The space where Apang Palace exists didn't just appear out of thin air during the second Supernatural Calamity but had existed for many years.

At least, from the perspective of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, it had been many years.

Wu Liang inclined to believe that the time flow within was different from the outside world, similar to the previous situation of the Peach Blossom Spring, but it most likely appeared five years ago during the first Supernatural Calamity, not during this Supernatural Calamity.

If what Emperor Qin Shi Huang said was true and the place was originally filled with Fierce Ghosts... then in a way, the citizens of Great Qin were already helping to fight against the supernatural back then.

Otherwise, if the Fierce Ghosts here had entered the present world, perhaps the official recovery of social order would have been delayed.

Then maybe the Promised Land wouldn't have been annihilated, and the Pioneer and Ghost Valley could have developed for a longer period.

Unfortunately, these are just hypotheticals.

Seeing Emperor Qin Shi Huang's indifference towards the Elixir of Immortality, Wu Liang earnestly asked Puppet Ghost and other Fierce Ghost Minions via the Ghost Compendium: "If the Fierce Ghost inside Director Long consumes this thing, will he explode?"

After all, this item attracts only the Fierce Ghosts, so Wu Liang wasn't sure if it could affect Symbionts.

The next second, Nightmare replied in the negative: "No, Boss. As long as a Fierce Ghost digests it, it won't pose any threat to the human body. Those who tested the elixir exploded because they weren't Symbionts."

With the accurate answer, Wu Liang could finally let out a sigh of relief.

He then asked Emperor Qin Shi Huang, "Your Majesty, since this elixir has no other use for you, why not grant it to us? Perhaps in our hands, it could shine brightly!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qin Shi Huang asked with interest, "How will it shine brightly?"

At this time, Wu Liang quickly nudged Director Long's elbow, prompting him to release the Magic Cube Dragon.

As he watched the sinister Magic Cube Dragon hovering over the grand hall, releasing the imposing aura of a City-Destruction Level Fierce Ghost from its body,

though Emperor Qin Shi Huang sat up straight, gazing at Director Long with a somewhat serious expression.

After pondering for a moment, he was puzzled and asked: "Could it be that the soul of the future ruler became tainted and corrupted?"

Emperor Qin Shi Huang didn't understand what a Symbiont was; he only knew that all Fierce Ghosts were chaotic and filthy creatures that bring harm but no benefit. If they appeared on Director Long, wouldn't that pollute his soul?

For this confusion, Director Long explained succinctly: "Master the strengths of the barbarians to control them; power has no inherent morality, only those who wield it do."

Upon hearing this, a flash of light appeared in Emperor Qin Shi Huang's eyes.

He then laughed heartily, praising, "Good! Excellent! How brilliant to master the strengths of the barbarians to control them! I never thought to harness the power of these phantoms and monsters; as expected of a future ruler, filling in where predecessors fell short! Hahaha!"

With each consecutive compliment, Director Long couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.
