Chapter 364 - I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

“Any wish?” Lin Beifan asked.

Shenron replied with pride, “Master, I am the all-powerful divine dragon who specializes in fulfilling others’ wishes! So no matter what your wish is, I can make it come true!”

Facing the confident Shenron, Lin Beifan opened his arms and declared ambitiously, “I want invincible power!”

“Alright, as you wish…” Shenron was about to agree but then hesitated.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Beifan asked.

The giant dragon swung its tail again, chiding, “Master is asking you a question, answer quickly!”

Shenron, feeling wronged, said, “Master, could you please wish for something else?”

Lin Beifan furrowed his brow, “Why do I have to change it?”

Shenron continued in frustration, “Because this little dragon cannot fulfill that wish for you!”

Lin Beifan’s frown deepened, “Why not?”

Shenron hesitated before speaking, “Because, master, your strength has already become comparable to, or even slightly surpasses, that of the god who created me! My power is limited by the god, and I cannot grant a power greater than his. Please forgive me!”

Lin Beifan shook his head in disappointment, “Here you claim to be an all-powerful dragon that grants any wishes, yet you can’t even fulfill the first one. How useless!”

“Such a useless dragon, I disdain you!” the giant dragon chimed in with contempt.

Feeling belittled, Shenron quickly said, “Master, I will definitely fulfill your next wish!”

“In that case…”

Lin Beifan once again opened his arms, “I wish for eternal life, to never age or die!”

“Alright, as you wi…” Shenron was about to agree when he choked up again.

“What’s wrong now?” Lin Beifan frowned.

Shenron said with embarrassment, “I’m sorry, master, but I cannot fulfill that wish either!”

“Why not?” Lin Beifan glared.

“Because even the god who created me cannot achieve this wish! Gods also age and die! Immortality is something no one in the world can achieve!” Shenron explained while feeling frustrated.

Lin Beifan shook his head again, “Again, you’re a huge disappointment!”

“Trash, you’ve disappointed us so much!” the giant dragon followed with scorn.

“Let’s move on to the next wish, I will definitely fulfill it!” Shenron pleaded, eager to prove himself.

Lin Beifan made another wish, “I want to be the supreme sovereign, to become the master of the universe!”

After a while, Shenron said with difficulty, “Master, I can’t do it, please make another wish!”

“And again… Why can’t you do it?” Lin Beifan was angry.

Shenron was on the verge of tears, “Master, I am the dragon of ‘Earth’, not from here, I have no control over this place! If you want to be the master of this universe, this little dragon simply can’t do it!”

Lin Beifan was utterly disappointed, “I knew you were useless, but I didn’t expect you to be this useless. Three wishes in a row, and you couldn’t fulfill a single one!”

“You are simply a shame to the dragon race!” the giant dragon shouted.

With a flushed face from the scolding, Shenron defended himself, “Master, it’s not that I can’t do it, but your wishes are beyond my ability! After all, I am just a little dragon from Earth, I can only manage things on Earth. Anything beyond that is impossible. Can you make a wish that I can fulfill?”

Lin Beifan waved his hand disinterestedly, “Fine, fine, seeing how pitiful you are, I’ll indulge you this time!”

“Thank you, master!” Shenron cried with joy.

Lin Beifan thought about it. What he coveted most from that ‘Earth’ were those pieces of advanced technology.

Universal capsules, time machines, gravity rooms, hover cars, and even spaceships…

If he could get all these things, his Great Xia would advance by leaps and bounds, and he wouldn’t need a year to conquer the world!

“I want all the technologies from Earth!” Lin Beifan declared loudly.

Shenron remained silent, his face growing more awkward.

“What’s wrong now? The wish I just made is about things on Earth. You should be able to do it, right?” Lin Beifan frowned.

“Accordingly, I should be able to!”

Shenron said with difficulty, “But when this little dragon tried to summon Earth’s technologies, a powerful world force was blocking me, and I couldn’t get through at all!”

Lin Beifan narrowed his eyes.

The world forces Shenron spoke of must be the world’s rules.

Previously, the game function of the Hand of Boundary Breaker had already warned that each world has its own rules of operation.

If the rules are incompatible, then things from other worlds cannot be brought over.

The Earth where Shenron resides could develop technology, but here it was only possible to focus on cultivation. The two were incompatible.

Therefore, anything related to advanced technology could not be brought here.

Thus, Lin Beifan had no choice but to give up on this wish.

Upon reflection, he realized that aside from its advanced technology, Earth’s martial arts have also developed quite well.

It could be considered a high-level martial world.

If one were to venture beyond Earth, that would be the realm of immortal martial arts, where shattering the cosmos is nothing extraordinary.

However, Shenron’s current abilities are limited to Earth, so let’s discuss Earth’s martial arts.

Although martial arts on Earth have developed well, in Lin Beifan’s view, they are too crude, merely concerning the cultivation of qi and neglecting the meridians and acupoints.

The techniques are also simple and rough—just fight and be done with it.

In the end, what often matters for them is not the understanding of martial arts but the bloodline.

The stronger the bloodline, the further one can go.

Those martial arts techniques are of little use if the bloodline is weak.

So, what wish should he make?

As Lin Beifan pondered, Shenron watched him cautiously, afraid that he would make another impossible wish that would drive him mad.

Just then, Lin Beifan snapped his fingers: “I’ve figured it out. I want to be able to grow and cultivate as many Senzu Beans as possible right here. You should be able to help me with that, right?”

In the world of Dragon Ball, Senzu Beans are practically a bug-level existence.

Whether you’re hungry or severely injured, just one Senzu Bean can quickly restore you, even more potent than a divine elixir.

It’s just a pity they’re hard to grow and yield is very low.

If he could bring them here and cultivate them in large quantities, his Great Xia would be unstoppable.

Shenron breathed a sigh of relief: “Master, I can grant this wish for you!”

Saying this, it radiated a brilliant light, then transformed into Senzu Beans enough to fill a wine jar, presenting them before Lin Beifan.

Lin Beifan laughed with joy. There were at least a thousand Senzu Beans here—he had struck it rich!

“Your wish has been fulfilled, and now this little dragon shall depart!” Shenron turned into seven Dragon Balls and scattered in all directions.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Lin Beifan reached out and immediately gathered all the Dragon Balls back.

The Dragon Balls had lost their power and turned into ordinary stones.

According to the rules, they would need a year to regain their strength and be ready for another wish.

Lin Beifan didn’t know if they could recover in this world, but it didn’t matter.

Holding them was enough!

If it worked out, he could make a wish every year!
