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

Chapter 380 The Supreme Emperor's Sword: You should have said you had someone backing you up earlier!

The Supreme Emperor Sword Deity was still commenting on the strength of the Great Completion Holy Body when, as he was speaking, he suddenly felt a strange chill creeping over him!

As a supreme divine weapon, the Supreme Emperor Sword is known for its strongest offensive power and is also hard enough to pierce and shatter everything. He has even killed more than one ancient supreme being, and the sword has been bathed in the blood of a supreme being.

But at this moment, he felt immense pressure.

The sword trembled slightly, a cold sensation washed over it, and water droplets were even condensing on its icy surface.

Moreover, along with that pressure, I felt my sword even bending!

The unyielding Taihuang sword was now bending little by little!

The Supreme Emperor Sword God's expression was solemn; he hadn't expected to encounter such a powerful figure here!
The mere presence of the other party filled him with a despair akin to annihilation!

"Surpassing the Supreme Emperor, surpassing that ancient supreme being from our previous battle!" The Supreme Emperor Sword God roared wildly in his heart.

He had fought against the Emperor for so many years and encountered so many powerful figures, but never had a single powerful figure brought him such a feeling of despair just from their aura!
Just as the Supreme Emperor Sword God was screaming wildly in his heart, Wang Teng made his move!

“Wang Teng greets Grandmaster. This time, I have brought a senior who wishes to visit you.”

Wang Teng spoke with a smile, showing genuine respect for this person.

Because he knows that he owes a great deal to this person in order to have everything he has today.

If it weren't for this person's appreciation, even if he were the exceptionally talented Wang Teng, even if he were the incredibly lucky Wang Teng, he might only have cultivated the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor and a few other legacies by now. It would have been impossible for him to have cultivated almost all the scriptures of the ancient emperors and even be able to command the entire Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land!
Just a remote and forbidden area was enough to give Wang Teng's several Dao Palace deities different identities, and these identities could not be seen through by others.

This grandmaster had given him so many opportunities that Wang Teng himself felt genuinely grateful when facing him.

Upon hearing Wang Teng's words, the Supreme Emperor Sword Deity was taken aback.

He never expected that this powerful figure was actually Wang Teng's grandmaster!
Wang Teng inherited the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, so he should be the successor of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, that is, the disciple of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.

However, the Supreme Emperor Sword God had never heard of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor having a master, let alone that the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's master was still alive!

To be called a master by an ancient emperor, one can imagine the strength of that person. And to be the master of an ancient emperor and still alive today, one's strength must be even more extraordinary!

At the very least, the Supreme Emperor Sword God has never encountered such a person before!

He had never heard of such a thing before!
"Hmm." Just as the Supreme Emperor Sword God was in shock, a response came from behind him.

It was not a verbal response, but a response from divine thought.

From this divine response, the Supreme Emperor Sword God could barely discern the other party's identity; she seemed to be a powerful woman!
However, throughout history, there have been even fewer female powerhouses. Only a handful of female powerhouses have been recognized as ancient emperors, such as the Queen Mother of the West of Yaochi, and another ancient supreme being.

But those people shouldn't be so powerful!

"The Supreme Emperor Sword..." the being continued to "speak" through divine thought.

The Supreme Emperor Sword God still felt immense pressure. He wanted to respond, but he couldn't.

This pressure weighed on him, leaving him no chance to even turn around, let alone see the true face of that being.

"It is I! May I ask who you are, senior?" The Supreme Emperor Sword God stirred up all his potential, unleashing a powerful force comparable to the revival of an ultimate imperial weapon, only then was he able to barely speak in response to the other party.

Just then, the oppressive aura emanating from him suddenly vanished, and he turned around to finally see who the other person was.

She was a woman in white, wearing a ghost mask, showing neither joy nor sorrow.

The other party simply stood there, yet it seemed to represent the core of the universe, the uniqueness of all things, and the most eternal truth throughout history!
"Ruthless Emperor!" The Supreme Emperor Sword God gasped, his eyes filled with shock and astonishment.

He certainly knew of this legendary ancient emperor.

He knew how powerful the Feathered Divine Dynasty was back then, but even the mighty Feathered Divine Dynasty was easily destroyed by this empress. One can imagine just how powerful this empress was.

However, to his surprise, the empress did not perish after so many years, but still exists in the world.

Hundreds of thousands of years have passed!
Even the supreme rulers of ancient times could only rely on self-imposed seclusion to preserve their lives.

However, based on the pressure he just felt, he was certain that the empress had not sealed herself off. She was still at her peak. The mere release of her aura was enough to make him feel an almost destructive pressure. This could only mean one thing!

"Something's not right. Could it be that you've broken through that realm? You've broken through the realm of the ancient emperors, have you taken another step forward?!" The Supreme Emperor Sword God asked in disbelief.

Throughout history, countless powerful individuals have dreamed of becoming ancient emperors, while those ancient emperors themselves have longed to go further, to glimpse the legendary path to immortality, or to surpass the realm of ancient emperors in this mortal world.

But so many people throughout history have tried, yet none of the great emperors of antiquity succeeded, which speaks volumes.

However, no one expected that someone would actually be able to do this!
And that person was right in front of him!
The Supreme Emperor Sword God was filled with shock; he was certain that the Empress had definitely surpassed that realm!
He was among the most ruthless of the ancient emperors, and his power ranked high among the ultimate imperial weapons of the ancient emperors.

But just now he felt as if he could be broken at any moment!
He believed that if the other party made a move, that seemingly delicate hand would easily break him if it landed on him!

This is absolutely something that ancient emperors could not have done!
And most importantly, no ancient emperor has ever lived this long!
It has been at least hundreds of thousands of years since the Yuhua Divine Dynasty. Which ancient emperor could live for hundreds of thousands of years?
No, which ancient emperor was able to maintain his peak condition for hundreds of thousands of years?
Anyway, the Supreme Emperor Sword God had never heard of such a thing!
Even the most powerful emperor in his eyes only lived two lifetimes, with a lifespan of just over ten thousand or twenty thousand years.

But at this moment, there is a powerful figure who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years and is still at his peak, so he does not believe that the other party is still an ancient emperor!
"It was not entirely successful," the Empress replied calmly with her divine sense.

However, Wang Teng knew that things were probably not that simple.

Judging from the Empress's current situation, she is already a mortal immortal. If she really wanted to make a move, even in this era where it is impossible to become an immortal, she could probably forcefully open a path directly to the Immortal Realm.

The reason they remain in this desolate and forbidden land is probably because of that saying.

Not for immortality, but simply to wait for your return in this mortal world!

However, Wang Teng and the Supreme Emperor Sword Deity had different focuses.

Wang Teng already knew the general situation of the Empress and how powerful she was, so he was not affected by her response.

Even the ancient gods and deities knew of the Empress's power, and he didn't react much to her response, finding everything to be normal.

After all, he had almost been crushed alive by the Empress before, so he was acutely aware of her power. But the Supreme Emperor Sword God was completely unaware of this!

This was the first time he had ever seen the Empress, so he was filled with shock and astonishment at her power!
"Not completely successful! You have indeed embarked on that path! At the end of the ancient emperors, there is indeed another path to continue forward!" The Supreme Emperor Sword God spoke in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The Supreme Emperor had also studied this path before, but he failed, to the point that even the Supreme Emperor Sword God thought it was a dead end!
But seeing someone succeed, he was filled with shock and even forgot to ask Wang Teng how he had such a powerful grandmaster, let alone have the time to delve into the relationship between the Chaotic Ancient Emperor and this person.

"I've gained some insights," the Empress replied calmly.

These things seemed insignificant to her.

Even what other ancient emperors explored throughout their lives was not so important to her, because there were things more important to her.

“I…” The Supreme Emperor Sword God was silent at this moment.

He had never encountered such a situation before, nor had he ever imagined it.

If he had known earlier that the expert Wang Teng was referring to was such a powerful figure, he might have refused Wang Teng's offer and not come to this place back in the Great Xia Dynasty.

Because he wasn't mentally prepared enough.

Even the deities of the Supreme Imperial Weapons, beings who once fought alongside ancient emperors, were now in a state of profound shock and silence.

The empress did not speak again.

She is not at her peak now.

If Wang Teng hadn't come here and recognized her as his grandmaster, she probably wouldn't have any emotional fluctuations at all.

It was precisely because of Wang Teng's arrival that she was able to recall a portion of the "gods" from Dao Guo, and maintain a certain level of rationality without affecting herself and Dao Guo.

The Supreme Emperor Sword God had regained his senses and realized the Empress's situation. However, even so, he dared not have any disrespectful thoughts towards the Empress, because he knew that if the Empress were to make a move, he would be no match for her at all, as the gap between them was too great.

Even if the Empress Dowager were to recover, she would be powerless against the Empress.

"I have learned a lot!" The Supreme Emperor Sword Deity nodded and bowed deeply.

The unyielding Taihuang sword bent at this moment, showing the Empress the highest respect.

Although the Empress didn't teach him anything, he saw a possibility in her, which can be considered as bringing an end to the Emperor Taihuang's lifelong pursuit.

"I was unaware that Wang Teng was your grand-disciple, and I have offended you greatly. From this day forward, I will earnestly teach Wang Teng and guide him in cultivating the Taihuang inheritance," the Taihuang Sword Deity said solemnly.

Even though he knew that Wang Teng had brought him here to show off his powerful connections, he didn't have any other thoughts at the moment, because the existence of the Empress was already shocking enough to him.

He would be troubled by this matter for a long time to come.

The Empress nodded upon hearing this.

Wang Teng is his grand-disciple, and also one of the few people she cares about in this world.

If Wang Teng hadn't returned to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land from time to time, she would probably still be asleep, letting her Dao Fruit wander outside, and she wouldn't have appeared.

The Supreme Emperor Sword God took a deep breath; he now knew Wang Teng's background.

Even knowing that Wang Teng had practiced the Taihuang Scripture, he would no longer pursue the matter.

"Senior, I still have some questions I'd like to ask you for clarification," the Supreme Emperor Sword Deity said, having many questions he wanted to ask the Empress.

However, the Empress did not respond to him, but quietly retreated and returned to the abyss of the desolate ancient forbidden land.

If Wang Teng hadn't arrived with an unfamiliar aura, the Empress wouldn't have appeared this time.

The few times the Empress made public appearances were actually related to Wang Teng, and Wang Teng himself was well aware of this, which is why he had the confidence and courage to bring the Supreme Emperor Sword God to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land.

He knew that his grandmaster would definitely back him up!

What does it mean to be the strongest second-generation... no, the strongest third-generation in the world of Shrouding the Heavens?

As long as Wang Teng doesn't act recklessly, court death, or cross the Empress's bottom line, he can roam freely in the world of Shrouding the Heavens!
"Alas, it seems our time has not come!" The Supreme Emperor Sword God sighed softly.

He didn't continue speaking, partly because continuing would be disrespectful to that person.

On the other hand, it's because he already knows about that person's existence. As long as he maintains a good relationship with Wang Teng, he will have another opportunity to visit the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, and he can ask about it then.

As for the doubts he had in his heart, he kept them hidden and did not show them.

"I never expected that you would have a being behind you who is the only one in the world who might be related to immortals!" The Supreme Emperor Sword God looked at Wang Teng and said with a wry smile.

Before coming to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, he could still maintain the majesty of the Supreme Emperor Weapon in front of Wang Teng, and his every move could invisibly exude his imperial aura.

However, after arriving at the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land and meeting that being, he had no intention of revealing his imperial aura in front of Wang Teng. Instead, he deliberately concealed his aura, making himself look similar to the Chaotic Ancient Emperor God beside Wang Teng.

Seeing the transformation of the Supreme Emperor Sword God, the Chaotic Ancient Imperial Weapon God suddenly felt a sense of urgency.

"Could this old fellow be trying to take my place?" A thought suddenly popped into the mind of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's Weapon God.

However, he was not troubled by this idea for long.

"Is there anything else you need to instruct me on since you've returned?" the Great Accomplished Holy Body asked as he approached.

"There shouldn't be any left. By the way, is there any movement from that lineage now?" Wang Teng originally wanted to say no, but then he thought of the lineage of the Holy Son of Yao Guang.

That lineage lost a Great Sage, and they will definitely not let it go easily.

"There was indeed some commotion," the Great Accomplished Holy Body said after a moment's thought.
