Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 229 Black dog hair can ward off evil spirits

Duan De and Hei Huang did not understand why Wang Teng did this. In their view, it was the legendary elixir of immortality, equivalent to a second life. Even if someone was about to perish and only had one breath left, or even just half a breath left, they could be saved.

There are even rumors that some people who have just died can have their yin and yang forcibly reversed if they take an elixir of immortality within a certain period of time.

But Wang Teng really doesn't need this.

Within him lies a legendary divine weapon that is nearly a quasi-emperor's artifact.

That was prepared specifically for his successor by the Great Emperor of Chaos.

The Chaotic Ancient Emperor was known for his repeated defeats and relentless struggles, finally achieving enlightenment and becoming an emperor in the final battle. He was one of the most renowned emperors throughout history. Given his past experiences, he naturally worried that his successors would be targeted by other forces and forced to follow the same path he had taken.

The Chaotic Ancient Emperor had great confidence in himself and his successors, but he also laid out special contingency plans to protect his successors.

Since no one knows what kind of crisis might arise in the future, as a qualified master, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor naturally considered all aspects.

The Chaotic Ancient Divine Talisman was a sacred weapon he specially crafted to protect his successor.

Although it is said to be a legendary holy weapon, some materials of the Elixir of Immortality were also used when the Chaotic Ancient Divine Talisman was made, which means that it is not as good as a quasi-emperor weapon in terms of grade. However, in other aspects, the effects shown by the Chaotic Ancient Divine Talisman surpass some quasi-emperor weapons.

When Wang Teng was attacked by a powerful being, the Chaotic Ancient Divine Talisman saved his life.

This passive way of preserving one's life is even more effective than the elixir of immortality, because even if one possesses the elixir of immortality, it is difficult to react when suddenly attacked, let alone swallow the elixir of immortality to refine its effects and live a second life.

However, being able to live a second life is indeed another major benefit of the elixir of immortality.

But does Wang Teng need it?

He's still young, not even twenty yet.

He will inevitably become a top powerhouse in the world of Shrouding the Heavens in the future. It's not too late to consider those things in the future. Right now, he just needs to be ambitious and enterprising.

"What a pity! That is an elixir of immortality. Throughout history, countless powerful figures have sought it, but the elixir of immortality only follows ancient emperors... Legend has it that this divine object can even grant a second life. If those old holy lords, some reclusive veteran kings, or even more powerful beings were to learn that there is an elixir of immortality in Purple Mountain, they would probably come here to explore at any cost."

Duan De spoke, initially with some regret, but as he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Calm down, I can guess what you're thinking! But this is the Daoist temple of the Great Emperor Wushi. If it's not me or Wang Teng leading the way, anyone else who comes in will only die. If they're not mortal enemies, don't trap them. If they're mortal enemies here... then give me their identities, and I'll take them to you."

When Hei Huang spoke, what he said at first was also normal, reminding Duan De not to act impulsively. But as he spoke, it took a turn for the worse. He looked at Duan De with a grin, as if he wanted to bring Duan De's enemies to find him.

"Go away, you damn dog! I knew you wouldn't say anything nice the moment you opened your mouth. Otherwise, why wouldn't the Divine Phoenix Elixir of Immortality follow you?" Duan De retorted, his words cutting straight to the heart.

On the way out of Zishan, the man and his dog whined and cursed.

Overall, the operation went quite well.

Although they didn't gain much, at least they didn't lose anything either.

Moreover, this mission also taught them what kind of beings existed within Purple Mountain. They also learned that this place was once the Daoist temple of the Great Emperor Wushi, and that many ancient clans are still sealed here today.

After leaving Zishan, the group looked back at the towering purple mountain standing on the vast desert, their faces filled with sighs.

"The dojo of an ancient emperor! I never imagined I would one day be able to visit the dojo of an ancient emperor, let alone return empty-handed..."

Duan De said, his voice tinged with regret.

For him, this was worse than death!
However, he himself knew in his heart that he could not bring anything out of that dojo. Putting aside the relationship between the Black Emperor and the Great Emperor Wushi, the ancient clans that were suppressed and sealed in that dojo were not easy to deal with.

Don't be fooled by the fact that those guys are currently suppressed. Once they are resurrected, they will definitely covet what's inside Purple Mountain. At that time, everyone who enters Purple Mountain will probably become their target.

Wang Teng certainly has nothing to fear, because his identity and status are undeniable. As a descendant of an ancient emperor, and with an ancient royal offspring by his side, his position in the ancient clans is extremely high. Those ancient clans that have revived would have to think twice before trying to harm him.

The Black Emperor will naturally not have too much of a problem. Those ancient clans all know about his relationship with the Great Emperor Wushi, so they shouldn't easily cause trouble for the Black Emperor.

So after thinking it over, the most dangerous ones are still those few brothers in distress.

Shortly after returning to the village, Duan De left to explore the history of the Northern Regions.

Before leaving, the Black Emperor thoughtfully prepared a map for him, which marked the locations of some of the top sects in the Northern Region hundreds of thousands of years ago, as well as the locations of their tombs.

Although the two of them cannot act together, this does not prevent the Black Emperor from providing Duan De with some support in terms of vision.

When they parted, the two people and the dog still cherished each other and were reluctant to leave, almost saying goodbye with tears in their eyes.

Duan De and Wu Liang each held onto one of Hei Huang's paws, clearly reluctant to part.

If Black King hadn't repeatedly emphasized that he wouldn't leave, they probably would have forcibly tied him up and left with him.

However, after those two people left, Black Emperor started cursing again.

Ye Fan curiously went over and asked the Black Emperor what had happened.

"I knew those two guys weren't good people a long time ago, but I didn't expect them to be this utterly wicked!" Black Emperor cursed.

He raised his two paws for Ye Fan to see.

Ye Fan couldn't help but laugh after just one glance.

Because Black King was originally almost entirely black, including the hair on its claws, but now the hair on its claws has decreased significantly. Although it is not completely bald, it looks sparse.

"When they were ripping you off, didn't you notice?" Ye Fan couldn't help but ask.

"I felt the pain, but I didn't pay much attention. Those two were really pulling my claws too tight..." Black Emperor cursed, venting his dissatisfaction.
