Spirit Tamer in the Apocalypse: I Contract the First Emperor and Rule in Chaotic Times

When the Nine Stars align, the Red-Thread Demon Star tears open the sky, releasing ancient spiritual energy and awakening heroic spirits, while also unleashing sealed ancient demon beasts. Demon beasts run rampant, the land lies in ruins, and the people are drenched in blood. Only by becoming a Spirit Tamer can one cling to life in these troubled times. Only an Emperor-rank Spirit Tamer can carve out a domain and rule as a king, competing for supremacy in this chaotic age. Emperor Gaozu of Han: “The great winds rise, the clouds soar. I unified the Eight Directions and established the Han realm. Once a commoner, I conquered the Nine Provinces. Now I can be emperor once more.” The Heavenly Khan: “Let the wine keep flowing, let the songs never cease. Play the Battle Formation Music to Heaven once more. The nations once came to pay tribute, and the Reign of Zhenguan once flourished. Those days are gone. If you want to know who will be emperor, just look at the present.” Genghis Khan: “I slaughtered a million soldiers across the land, my saber still reeking of blood at my waist. The Eternal Blue Sky has returned to rule the world. Who can stand against me?” The Hongwu Emperor: “A hero among men, a peak among mountains. Let the sun and moon restore the great order. Blood stains this troubled world; foreign invaders must be slain, demon beasts must be exterminated, and clear skies must return.” The Conqueror: “In a brief exchange, life and death are decided. My strength can pull up mountains, my spirit eclipses the world. Where are my twenty-eight cloud riders? Wake at once and follow me to conquer the world again.” … In his previous life, Zhao Lin was betrayed and deceived. He endured every hardship life could offer, wandering for eighteen years and surviving countless brushes with death. By a stroke of luck, he entered the Mausoleum of the First Emperor on Mount Li. Just as he obtained the Imperial Jade Seal, he was surrounded and killed by various factions, and buried alongside the seal in the mausoleum. Reborn, Zhao Lin discovers that the Imperial Jade Seal has fused with him, and the heroic spirit of the First Emperor, long dormant, lies within it. He awakens the First Emperor’s heroic spirit and earns his recognition through his ambition to rule the Four Seas and Eight Directions. “From this day on, the world belongs to Great Qin alone. The Four Seas and Eight Directions, immortals, demons, gods, and fiends alike shall all bow to us. Anyone who defies the emperor’s command will be killed without exception!”
