Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 174: Ice Dragon Great General
At this moment, as a figure with unparalleled grace and extraordinary bearing emerged from the Heroic Spirit Relic, everyone around the altar suddenly fell silent.
They quietly gazed at the figure,
and the introduction of her achievements.
Wang Ling, Yu Shu, and others had dry throats.
Damn it, how could this be possible?
This is beyond ridiculous!
"This—"
Director Li, Director He, Instructor Xu, and others were also dumbfounded.
A legendary general never recorded in history?
The strongest single-soldier general under the command of Emperor Shi??
Everyone felt as if their hearts had been squeezed.
Judging from the introduction of her achievements, this seemed to be the second strongest combat power of the first generation of the Dong Huang Dynasty!
Inconceivable!
Why wasn't such a person recorded in history?
Also, if everything that was happening before their eyes was real...then this should be the most powerful heroic spirit to ever appear in the Heroic Spirit Relic.
How did Shi Yu summon such an existence...
This kid is truly monstrous.
"The Fourth General..." Among the crowd, Wang Ling suddenly remembered what Shi Yu had said to him in class, and his brain suddenly buzzed.
[Shi Yu: As everyone knows, there are four Great Generals, right?]
"Damn." Wang Ling was shocked.
He felt like he and Shi Yu were not playing the same game.
Was Shi Yu aware of what he could summon even before he came here?
Designated summoning?
Cheating!
No wonder Shi Yu said that he would communicate with the relic from an archaeological perspective...
"Wait, wait a moment."
"What about her life story?"
After the phantom of Ice Dragon General appeared, people held their breath and waited attentively for the Heroic Spirit Relic to introduce Mu Huiyin's life story.
Like Lu Zhizhou just now, in addition to his achievements, the relic recorded almost his entire life from birth to death in the form of a brief introduction.
Although Lu Zhizhou's story was also recorded in history books, the more detailed records in the Heroic Spirit Relic undoubtedly served as another confirmation and supplement to history.
Compared to Lu Zhizhou, Mu Huiyin was undoubtedly more mysterious and her achievements were more shocking!
Everyone was eager to know all the information about this unknown and mysterious general.
"Why isn't there anything?"
"Why isn't it showing?"
Everyone waited.
However, after a moment, the people present were stunned.
Apart from her name and vast achievements, the Heroic Spirit Relic did not seem to record Mu Huiyin's more detailed information.
It seemed that not only history, but even Emperor Shi, who built the Heroic Spirit Relic, did not record much information about her!
"Why..." Shi Yu stared at the phantom, also puzzled.
It was one thing for history not to record it.
Why didn't the Heroic Spirit Relic record it either?
As a national hero of that era, she shouldn't be treated this way.
There must be some unknown information hidden within!
Why didn't the Frost Dragon mention it!
Just when everyone was wondering what was going on, a sudden change occurred.
"Impossible..."
"What's going on..."
Looking at the sky above the altar, some students suddenly spoke in shock.
Shi Yu's gaze also suddenly narrowed.
At this moment, Mu Huiyin's figure seemed to walk out of the Heroic Spirit Relic, gradually revealing a clear face.
It should be known that for thousands of years, the heroic spirits summoned from the relics had almost blurred faces and figures.
But with Ice Dragon General, everything changed completely.
In the next moment, everyone was amazed by the Ice Dragon General before them.
Her face was beautiful, exquisite and unparalleled. She wore armor, carried a long sword, and had shoulder-length red hair and red pupils. Her phantom body, like a soul, was enveloped in spiritual energy like the flames of the sun, and her temperament was peerless!
She truly resembled an ancient general descending upon the world!
Even more incredibly, everyone could clearly see Mu Huiyin's gaze sweeping across them.
This made everyone open their mouths in disbelief.
Then, this spirit that fell towards the altar locked onto Shi Yu and slowly spoke.
"What year is it now?"
Her voice stunned everyone.
Damn!
Damn!
As the soul that emerged from the Heroic Spirit Relic spoke, everyone present widened their eyes again. How could this be possible?!
Weren't the heroic spirits summoned from the Heroic Spirit Relic all brand new lifeforms without any memories?!
What was going on before their eyes!!!
The heroic spirit...spoke???
Shi Yu's heart also trembled slightly.
This was unscientific!
From what he knew, the heroic spirits here couldn't possess consciousness.
What had he awakened...?
"2300 years after Emperor Shi established the Dong Huang Dynasty."
Shi Yu suppressed his shock and looked at the heroic spirit he had accidentally summoned.
Mu Huiyin's expression was unreadable.
"Does the dynasty still exist?"
"The dynasty established by Emperor Shi has fallen, but later generations have rebuilt it, repeatedly, continuing to this day."
Shi Yu replied.
"Why did it fall?"
Mu Huiyin asked.
"I don't know." Shi Yu replied and asked, "Don't you know either?"
Mu Huiyin shook her head.
"Including myself, all the spirits here are traces of power preserved by Emperor Shi through the power of time, and we don't know what happened in the later stages of the dynasty."
"I am just a trace of Mu Huiyin's power. Perhaps she herself experienced everything, but I have always been here."
She was a special case, the only spirit here that retained partial consciousness, and also the only heroic spirit whose life story was not recorded.
As Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit finished speaking, the archaeology instructors, including Director Li, trembled slightly.
They were right.
The archaeological community had many theories about how Emperor Shi transformed the Heroic Spirit Relic!
Among them, some said that Emperor Shi buried the souls of all the heroes here.
Others said that Emperor Shi used the power of time to copy a part of their power at a certain point, preserve it, and imprint it here. Then, the traces of power, after years of accumulation and the baptism of faith, became heroic spirits.
Now it seemed that it was the latter.
The true bodies and souls of those heroes had either perished or were still buried somewhere.
The undead born in the Heroic Spirit Relic, like the elemental lifeforms evolved from elements and the sword spirits and book spirits evolved from swords and books, were brand new extraordinary undead born purely from the combination of power traces and faith.
Therefore, they didn't have the memories of their predecessors. Therefore, their forms of existence were diverse. Therefore, their forms of power were almost the same...
Emperor Shi's methods shocked the beast tamers present once again.
This was equivalent to creating a brand new undead race.
His methods were not much different from modern machinists who could create mechanical lifeforms.
The Time element...was indeed mysterious and powerful.
At this moment, listening to the reply of Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit, Shi Yu fell into deep thought.
She didn't know anything?
Then it seemed that Mu Huiyin herself and the Frost Dragon's subsequent suppression of the Glacier Totem were unknown to this heroic spirit?
After all, this relic was established quite early, and Mu Huiyin should have been young at that time.
"Why...aren't you recorded here and outside?"
Shi Yu asked Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit.
He now had a new guess.
Standing on the altar of the Heroic Spirit Relic, Shi Yu wanted to figure out two things.
The most important thing he wanted to know was why Emperor Shi died and why the first generation of the Dong Huang Dynasty was overthrown.
Secondly, it was why the Ice Dragon General was not recorded in history.
Mu Huiyin's spirit did not answer.
But Shi Yu looked at the characteristics of the Ice Dragon General and speculated, "You didn't let Emperor Shi record your story?"
As Shi Yu finished speaking, Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit looked at him.
Everyone looked at Shi Yu.
"Did that dragon tell you?"
"I guessed."
The number one person under Emperor Shi, with explosive combat power and explosive achievements, and who could even suppress totems in her later years, how could there be no records of her in later generations? The greatest possibility was that someone deliberately erased her traces.
"Then continue to guess why I erased my traces." Mu Huiyin's expression was calm.
She stared at Shi Yu.
At this moment, all the instructors, mentors, and students present were numb, completely unaware of what was happening before them.
The situation on the scene was once terrifying.
Even Instructor Xu and others were trembling.
Damn it, the fourth general under Emperor Shi...was this so exciting? Also, this student named Shi Yu, he was so brave.
On the altar, Shi Yu looked directly at the Ice Dragon General.
The difference between Mu Huiyin and the image he had constructed in his mind was very large.
He originally thought that the Ice Dragon General was from the Icefield tribe, contracted with the Ice Dragon, and was titled Ice Dragon, so she would be a beast tamer with ice element beast taming talent, but...judging from her power fluctuations, her power was flame-like!
This was unscientific!
The power of the Ice Dragon General, the master of the Frost Dragon, was inclined towards the fire element? Moreover, her hair color, pupil color...
"You...are not a pure-blooded human?" Shi Yu took a deep breath.
In that turbulent era, a top powerhouse always fought as a single soldier, except because she was ridiculously strong and no one could cooperate with her, there was another possibility that she was difficult to integrate into the group, or rather, did not want to integrate into the group.
In addition, if there was a reason for someone not to want their identity to be recorded, then there was a possibility that even she herself hated her identity.
Shi Yu looked at the various characteristics of the Ice Dragon General, and her image gradually overlapped with the image of another character in history, and judged that she was not a pure-blooded human, but a mixed-race between humans and other races!
At this moment, as Shi Yu finished speaking, the more than 600 students present suddenly opened their mouths wide with shocked expressions.
Damn.
What was Shi Yu talking about...
They looked at the heroic spirit of the Ice Dragon General in disbelief.
At this moment, Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit looked at the later generations of humans present, still with a calm expression, and said, "You don't seem to be repulsed by this identity."
She did not deny Shi Yu's speculation.
And she found that the performance of later generations when they heard this was very different from that of the humans in her era.
Those who are not of our race must have different intentions, which was the general concept of that era.
But now, Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit strangely found that many young humans were looking at her with starry eyes, seemingly admiring and curious...their ideological concepts were particularly open.
Incredible...
"Of course we're not repulsed." Shi Yu said, "After all, you're a hero of the Dong Huang Ancient Kingdom."
"Then that's really a good era." Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit said.
In her era, even if she eventually became a human hero, she still couldn't gain trust.
Having had enough of the exclusion and suspicion, Mu Huiyin eventually chose to downplay her existence.
Even because of her own reasons, she never married in her life, so that this bloodline was completely cut off.
This bloodline had brought her talent and potential, but also many hardships.
She didn't want such a bloodline to be inherited and harm later generations.
Besides this Heroic Spirit Relic, there should be very few places where her name existed.
"In history, are there people similar to me?" Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit asked.
Shi Yu nodded.
"In later generations, there was an empress who, like you, was not a pure-blooded human, but she ended decades of totem wars, reunified the Dong Huang land, and became a legendary beast tamer like Emperor Shi."
Empress!
Hearing Shi Yu's words, most of the people present showed expressions of admiration, after all, she was also a great legendary figure who liberated the Dong Huang human race from the totems again.
In history, there were indeed many mixed-race humans like Mu Huiyin. Their births were tragedies, and they were indeed a class of people who were excluded in ancient times. It wasn't until the empress was born that this situation changed.
At this moment, hearing Shi Yu's words, Mu Huiyin's expression was dazed.
"I see, I am not as good as her." Mu Huiyin was relieved.
However, combined with the information that the Dong Huang Dynasty was overthrown and the Dong Huang land fell into totem wars again, she couldn't help but shake her head.
In her opinion, the overthrow of the Dong Huang Dynasty was not unacceptable, but rather expected.
Emperor Shi's ambition was too great.
After driving out the totems, he was not satisfied with this.
He also wanted to live forever, set foot in mythology, and be immortal for eternity.
Even, his gaze was locked on the sleeping mythical creatures.
With such lofty ambitions, success would lead to soaring to the sky, and failure would lead to vanishing into thin air.
Although she didn't know what path Emperor Shi chose later, it seemed that the ending wasn't very good.
It led to the Dong Huang Dynasty encountering a great catastrophe and falling into war again.
But fortunately...it seemed that the later generations of humans had survived.
With that thought, she looked at Shi Yu.
"Since you have awakened me, then let's see if you have the qualifications to inherit my power."
More than 2,000 years ago, in order to leave some power for later generations, Emperor Shi, with a super-level time and undead dual-element skill developed to the extreme, imprinted the power traces of many heroes of the Dong Huang Dynasty, allowing them to grow and evolve into heroic spirits with the help of the power of time.
At that time, Mu Huiyin also preserved a share of power, which had now evolved into an undead lifeform.
She looked at the long sword beside her.
To be precise, her power trace had evolved into a sword spirit.
A fire element, undead element sword spirit.
Perhaps, it was also related to her liking to use swords, and also sealing her talent bloodline power into it.
This was an extremely violent sword spirit. She didn't want it to be born, because she was afraid that few beast tamers could control it. But Shi Yu had awakened it with the aura of the Ice Dragon. Now, she could only try to test Shi Yu and see if Shi Yu had the aptitude to control it.
"If you pass my test, I will give you the power soul seed, and you can hatch and contract it yourself."
The various information brought by the appearance of Mu Huiyin's heroic spirit shocked everyone present.
No one would have thought that under Emperor Shi, there was also an extraordinary combat power, a non-pure-blooded human titled general.
They were even more envious of Shi Yu, Shi Yu...was about to get a suspected overlord race undead youngling?!
"What test?" Shi Yu raised his head with great interest.
