The Eternal Calamity of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 116 The Eternal Secret
"The legendary Samsara Lake, this kind of heaven-defying thing actually exists? It is said that through it one can see through one's past and future."

From afar, the unscrupulous Taoist priest Duan De stared at the crystal clear lake on the ground with a thoughtful look on his face.

"I don't know why, but I always feel that this thing is destined for me, and I have an inexplicable sense of familiarity..."

Duan De murmured to himself, it was a rare moment of seriousness.

At this moment, he suddenly grimaced and screamed in pain.
"Hiss, Wuliang, you fucking Heavenly Venerable, you damned dog, why do you bite just like that?"

"Woof, woof, woof..."

The barking of dogs resounded through the sky.

"Damn you Duan De, you are such a shameless bastard, everything is predestined for you, and I haven't even spoken yet."

Hei Huang refused to give in and bit Duan De's thigh again.

"Fuck it! I am a Taoist priest who roams the world, but I am chased and bitten by a dog."

"Dead dog, let go."

Duan De cursed and pulled hard, and a huge hole was torn in his pants.

"No, my divine companion Yuyi, damn you, Black Emperor!"

Seeing this, Duan De was so angry and heartbroken that he almost vomited blood.

"Okay, dog, stop biting." Little Nannan blinked her big eyes and patted Heihuang gently.

"Humph, Fatty, you're lucky."

The Black Emperor finally let the fat Taoist priest go, but he was still growling, as if he was not satisfied yet.

"Big brother, look at the dog. It doesn't listen to me anymore."

Little Nannan gently pulled Heihuang's ear and turned to look at Ye Fan in front of her.

Hei Huang got anxious when he heard this, and quickly defended himself: "Little Ancestor, how dare I disobey you? I didn't even bite that fat guy."

"Really?"

"Really, I, the Black Emperor, swear to heaven that you must believe that a future emperor will never lie." The Black Emperor said righteously.

Seeing its serious look, Fatty Duan ignored the pain and subconsciously complained, "No way, with the word 'huang' in its name, do you really think you are the future emperor?"

"Woof! Fatty, you want to be bitten again, right?"

Hei Huang immediately glared at Duan De, then gritted his teeth at Ye Fan, "Young man Ye, tell me, do I have a better chance of attaining enlightenment than Fatty Duan?"

Hearing this, Ye Fan felt a little headache.

It was as if Hei Huang and Duan De were born to be enemies. They would always quarrel when they got together. But there was also a benefit. With the unscrupulous Taoist priest attracting firepower, he had been bitten by Hei Huang less frequently recently.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, like the sound of nature, but also with a hint of majesty.

"Have you had enough of the noise?"

It was the woman who looked like a real fairy, and she spoke.

Hearing this, Hei Huang subconsciously wanted to show his teeth, but suddenly remembered something and could only restrain himself in dissatisfaction.

Little girl looked up and said innocently, "Big sister is so awesome! Even dogs are afraid of you!"

"Yes, the princess still has a way. We should give this nasty dead dog a lesson." Duan De on the side also nodded.

As soon as he finished speaking, Heihuang almost fell to the ground. If it was someone else, he would have rushed up and bit him, but it had to be that person.

Burning Goddess!

As the biological daughter of the ancient emperor, she holds an extraordinary status and possesses unimaginable power of blood inheritance.

The Black Emperor had suffered a great loss at her hands. He once threatened to take her as his pet, but ended up being suppressed in a furnace.

Back then, the Fighting Buddha only had one part of his tail bald, but the Burning Goddess actually wanted to burn all the hair at once.

If Ye Fan had not taken action and informed him of the intelligence about Samsara Lake, the Black Emperor might have become the Burnt Emperor.

Thinking back on it now, it still gives me chills.

……

Holy Cliff,

The Immortal Mountain, one of the sacred mountains of the origin of the universe, was cut out by a great saint to use as his own place of practice.

I didn't expect that I would die here in my old age. Even the cliff was dyed dark red.

Ye Fan, the old madman, Li Heishui, Xiao Nannan, and Hei Huang had been here before, in search of the legendary Nine Secrets. That time they had seen the Samsara Lake, and everyone wanted to see it, but were stopped in time by the old madman.

Only little Nannan took a look and said she saw a big purple star.

In fact, what she saw was a glimpse of the future. The big purple star was exactly the Ziwei star field, and little Nannan eventually ended up there.

This is my second time coming to Holy Cliff, and I came here specifically for the Samsara Lake.

At this moment, the Burning Goddess was carefully examining the strange Samsara Pond, trying to see something from it.

Even the old madman who was a saint was very secretive about it, but she didn't care.

Seeing this, Hei Huang muttered, “The Wu Shi Great Emperor once said, don’t look at your past and future, otherwise it will affect the state of the present.”

Its voice was very small, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

“I know that only the Ancient Emperor and the Great Emperor can watch them, so I brought them here. I guess I took advantage of a loophole.” The Burning Goddess whispered.

As if in response to her words, the Eternal Tribulation Seal in the sky shook slightly, and the two lotus soldiers next to it also swayed slightly.

Seeing this, Heihuang and Duan De’s eyes almost popped out.

Even though it wasn't the first time I saw him, a raging fire of envy, jealousy and hatred still burned wildly in my heart.

"Then...Princess, did you see what you wanted to see?" Ye Fan asked tentatively.

Except for the Burning Goddess, no one dared to approach the Samsara Lake, except little Nannan.

The Burning Goddess shook her head slightly, and her long black hair fluttered in the air.

"I overestimated my own abilities. Even with the help of the power of the Eternal Tribulation Seal and the Chaos Reversal Technique, I was unable to trace back to that era. All I could see was the boundless and endless light of tribulation."

"Reversal Style, is this the name of the magic spell just now? Forcibly disrupting the order of time and space, returning to the origin, it is far more domineering than the Vedas." Ye Fan said to himself.

Vedas.

The mysterious method that Ye Fan obtained from the ancient Taoist temple on Earth can recreate the scenes of the past by comprehending the profound principles. It is a kind of return to the ancient times, and even Sakyamuni was inspired by it.

I thought this magic was powerful enough to defy the heavens, and even not inferior to the forbidden methods in the Emperor's Scriptures. Unexpectedly, it was still not enough in front of the rebellious style performed by the Burning Goddess.

“Please excuse my laughter, Brother Ye. This is a forbidden secret technique included in another kind of heavenly skill. It is not an inherited scripture of our clan. I can only perform it with the help of external forces.” The Burning Goddess explained.

Hearing this, Ye Fan and others couldn't help but be shocked.

At this time, Duan De at the side couldn't help but interrupt and said, "May I ask Princess, what exactly are you trying to find with the help of the Samsara Lake?"

Upon hearing this, Burning Goddess did not answer directly, but instead stared at Duan De.

Under her scrutiny, the unscrupulous Taoist priest, who was always known for his thick skin, was unusually embarrassed and said awkwardly:
"Please forgive me, Princess. I am sorry for being so rude."

Burning Goddess replied softly: "Master Duan, you are too polite. I just suddenly remembered something. Actually, it's okay to tell you. I'm looking for my father's trace."

"The princess's father?" Ye Fan and others were surprised.

Of course they knew who the father of the Burning Goddess was.
Burning Emperor,
One of the most powerful beings throughout history, and the most mysterious. There are not many records about His deeds in ancient history.

Its appearance and disappearance are all shrouded in mystery. The only thing that is certain is that it was briefly active in the middle of the ancient times. Its ancient imperial weapon is the Burning Demonic Lotus, which has unparalleled destructive power in ancient and modern times.

“I remember Monkey Brother once said that before his father, the Saint Emperor of Fighting, attained enlightenment, he had two people he admired the most. One of them was the Immortal Emperor, whose status during the ancient times had always been very high, even surpassing that of the gods, and he was supreme.

As for the other one, it was the Burning Cinder Emperor, but even Brother Monkey didn't know much about his deeds. He only knew that his father still mentioned him several times in his later years, and his admiration for him remained unchanged. "Ye Fan said.

"The Holy Prince? His father, the Holy Emperor of Fighting, was the last emperor of the ancient times. His fighting power was so strong that it could be called heaven-defying. He really deserves the title of Holy Emperor."

"Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you all. Although I am my father's only child, I don't know as much about him as you think."

As she spoke, the mood of the Burning Goddess became visibly depressed.

Seeing this, Black Emperor said without thinking, "You are not like the Holy Prince. Your father, the Ancient Emperor Fenjin, passed away before you were three years old, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air suddenly became dead silent.

The eyes of the Burning Goddess were cold, and Ye Fan looked heartbroken as if he had seen a useless teammate. Only the unscrupulous Taoist Duan De had a hint of gloating in his eyes.

Heihuang suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing and regretted it deeply.

Fortunately, the little girl was considerate and came to the rescue in time.
"You're not a good dog. You actually said something like that. Big sister will be sad."

"Yes, yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't say such things." Hei Huang seized the opportunity and apologized quickly.

With the little girl's help, Burning Goddess was stunned for a moment, and then her face returned to normal. "Forget it, my father's deeds are not many, even I don't know much, it's normal that you don't know."

Seeing this, Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

This female devil was far from having the arrogance of a member of the ancient royal family, but her strength was much stronger than that of the average heir of an ancient emperor, and she had helped him several times.

If possible, Ye Fan certainly wanted to become friends with the Burning Goddess, just like the Holy Prince, otherwise he would not have personally brought her to find the Samsara Lake.

"But if I understand correctly, the princess just wanted to trace back to the mythological era, right?"

At this time, Duan De on the side asked again, as if he had discovered the blind spot.

"Master Duan has good eyesight. I am indeed trying to trace back to the mythological era because I want to meet someone." The Burning Goddess replied.

"Who?"

"The master of the Eternal Tribulation Seal, the Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord!"

The moment the words fell, Ye Fan suddenly became dazed for no reason, as if he had triggered some kind of taboo. At this moment, even the heaven and earth were shaken.

Soon, Ye Fan realized that this was not his illusion, because he saw the same expression on Heihuang and Duan De's faces. Only Xiao Nannan seemed unaffected and was listening to them attentively.

"Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord? This person is too ancient, even in the mythological era he was quite early. Could he be connected to your father, the Burning Cinder Emperor?"

Duan De was stunned.

For the purpose of archaeology, he studied ancient history and knew all the Heavenly Lords, Ancient Emperors, and Great Emperors who had left behind titles.

Only a few of the powerful ones remain a mystery. Not only can their tombs not be found, but there are also only a few fragmentary historical records about them.

Unfortunately, Emperor Burning Ashes and Eternal Tribulation Lord belong to this category.

"I don't know, but I've heard from my mother that my father often mentioned Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord in his later years, and the relationship between the two is definitely special. Moreover, when I was born, the Eternal Tribulation Seal automatically flew over, bringing a large amount of inheritance. The reversal style just now came from the Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Lord." The Burning Goddess replied.

Ye Fan was born with a magic weapon as his companion. If it were any other time, his first reaction would definitely be to treat it as a joke, but now all he felt was shock.

At this moment, Black Emperor seemed to recall something and said hurriedly, "Oh, right, the Great Emperor Wu Shi also mentioned Yong Jie Tian Zun in his later years. He believed that this person was very likely to have become an immortal in the mythological era and had transcended time since then."

After hearing what Hei Huang said, Ye Fan and Duan De looked at each other in shock.

Immortal!

This is the ultimate topic throughout the ages, and countless great people have come forward to verify this path.

Now, we suddenly hear the news that someone has become an immortal, and this is not recorded in ancient history. How can we not be shocked?

"Are you sure you didn't hear it wrong?" Ye Fan and Duan De couldn't help but question.

No one dared to deny the opinion of Emperor Wu Shi, so the only possibility they could think of was that Hei Huang had heard it wrong.

"How is that possible? That's what the Great Emperor said. I still remember His expression at that time. It was something I had never seen before, so it left a deep impression on me. If you don't believe me, you can go back to Purple Mountain and ask Wu Shi Zhong."

Heihuang was a little anxious and was about to swear to the sky.

"This……"

Even so, Ye Fan and Duan De were still somewhat skeptical, as the news was too shocking.

The two couldn't help but look up at the Eternal Tribulation Seal above their heads. The god of this weapon seemed to be asleep and had no intention of paying any attention to them.

Ye Fan muttered to himself, "The Immortal Bell, the Desolate Tower, the Tribulation Seal, and the Source Cauldron, these four immortal artifacts have a long history, spanning ancient and modern times, and many major historical events are related to them. Currently, the only one whose origin is known is the Source Cauldron, also known as the Green Cauldron. It is a witness to the ancient heaven in the mythological era, and it is also the supreme ancestral artifact of the human race, containing the secret of becoming an immortal. If the owner of the Eternal Tribulation Seal, the Eternal Tribulation Heavenly Venerable, really became an immortal, then that would explain why it is an immortal artifact."

But this is still too shocking. After all, even the ancient heaven collapsed.

Moreover, what Ye Fan couldn’t understand was why a person who was suspected to have become an immortal in the mythological era would have a connection with the Burning Emperor of the ancient times?
At this time, the Burning Goddess revealed another secret.
"My father disappeared completely. Neither the Burning World Demon Lotus nor Sister Shenyan knew where he went. Even the Reverse Chaos Style could not trace him. The only thing that is certain is that he did not become a Taoist. So I can only go to the Mythology Era, hoping to find a trace of him."

Ye Fan had no idea who Shen Yan was, but he knew very well that they seemed to have come into contact with an incredible secret. If it were to be spread, it would be enough to shock the world for eternity.

Now, Ye Fan had some understanding of why the Burning Goddess would take the risk to come and watch the Samsara Lake.

"Nannan believes that big sister will definitely be able to find her father."

The little girl clenched her pink little fists and cheered on the side, her cute big eyes sparkling with light. Her lovely look immediately dispelled some of the gloom.

"Although I didn't see what I wanted to see, I still want to thank Brother Ye for bringing me here. I owe you this time. If you have any problems in the future, you can always come to Wanlong Nest to find me, and the same goes for my little girl."

The Burning Goddess smiled softly, her skin was crystal clear and very brilliant.

"Yeah!" Little Nannan nodded seriously.

"You're welcome, princess."

Ye Fan was about to say something polite when he suddenly caught sight of Hei Huang and Duan De secretly glancing at him.

The Burning Goddess also noticed their little move and waved her hand.

"Brother Ye, Taoist Duan, and Black Emperor, let's say goodbye now. We will meet again in the future. And little girl, you must come to see your sister. If anyone dares to bully you, I will teach them a lesson."

"Well, bye, big sister."

As little Nannan was reluctant to leave, the Burning Goddess soared into the sky. Before leaving, she put a bracelet on little Nannan's wrist.

"Phoenix Blood Red Gold, Dragon Pattern Black Gold, Eternal Blue Gold... Damn, this is a bracelet made of nine-color fairy gold."

"Damn, is the Ten Thousand Dragons Nest so wealthy? Fatty, do you want to go there and do some work?"

Duan De and Hei Huang stared with their eyes wide open, and if you looked closely, you could see that they were drooling from the corners of their mouths.

"This gift is too expensive."

At this moment, even the knowledgeable Ye Fan couldn't help but feel shocked.

The preciousness of the Nine-Colored Immortal Gold is beyond doubt. After all, it is a rare divine material that can be used to forge imperial weapons.

Although this bracelet is not big, it does not hinder its preciousness at all.

The ability to cut and draw the extremely hard nine-colored fairy gold, then weave it into the shape of a bracelet and give it the ultimate law shows the strength of the maker. Ye Fan also believes that it was refined by the ancient emperor himself.

Moreover, the Burning Goddess also thoughtfully set up the appearance to be very suitable for the little girl's temperament, without overshadowing her at all.

"Wow, big brother, look, what a beautiful bracelet! It was given to me by big sister." Little Nannan's eyes lit up as she showed off her bracelet.

"Little girl, put it away quickly. This bracelet has a protective function. It is at least comparable to a holy weapon, although you probably won't be able to use it."

While giving instructions, Ye Fan turned around inadvertently and suddenly found that Hei Huang and Duan De were staring at him, and there seemed to be some ill intentions in their eyes.

Duan De laughed evilly at the side, and Hei Huang asked directly: "Young man Ye, when Burning Goddess left just now, she said that she owed you a favor, right?"

"What are you two going to do?" Ye Fan immediately became alert.

"If we capture her, we will become rich immediately, and our brothers will also become successful overnight. Why would we still need to rob tombs?" Duan De tempted.

"That's right. Think about it. She is the Supreme Princess of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, the daughter of the Ten Thousand Dragon Emperor and the descendant of the Burning Cinder Emperor. Only the Great Emperor Wu Shi can rival her supreme bloodline. If you can capture her, your dowry alone will include the immortal weapon, the Eternal Tribulation Seal, as well as the ancient imperial weapons, the Burning Demon Lotus and the Ten Thousand Dragon Bell. As for the Chaos Green Lotus, you can summon it at any time."

"Once a war breaks out, there will be no need for the Eternal Tribulation Seal. The Chaos Blue Lotus will be in charge of defense, the Burning World Demon Lotus will be in charge of attack, and the Ten Thousand Dragon Bells will be there to interfere. Who can stop them? If that's still not enough, I can lend you the Heaven Devouring Demon Jar at worst."

Duan De and Hei Huang began to fantasize.

Seeing this scene, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a headache.

"What are you two thinking about? Why don't you go by yourselves? Why do you have to instigate me?"

Hearing this, the fat Taoist pointed at himself.
"Me? Do you think I have that chance? I would like to."

"What about you? Heihuang, don't you want the innate holy body and the Taoist fetus?" Ye Fan looked at Heihuang again with an unfriendly expression.

The Black Emperor was suddenly stunned, and then began to struggle. After a moment, it became serious.

"Well, although the Burning Goddess is good, she is still not as important as the Innate Saint Body Dao Fetus. Ye Fan, you have to hold back. Zixia is your destination."

"Damn it, you dead dog, why did you suddenly change your mind? You agreed to urge Ye Fan to capture the Burning Goddess together." Duan De was fed up.

However, what responded to him was the Black Emperor's huge mouth.

"Woof, woof, woof..."

"You fat guy, you almost led me astray."

"You damn dog, you come again, let go." Duan De's screams rang out again.

Ye Fan and Xiao Nannan were watching them from the side.

At this moment, the Holy Cliff suddenly changed. A black whirlwind was seen blowing, and a large shadow was approaching from the horizon, swirling around. It was like dark clouds were pressing down from all directions, and there was also a faint sound of crying.

"No, let's get out of here first."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Fan picked up the little girl, activated the chessboard formation and left.

"Damn, Ye boy is disloyal." Heihuang and Duan De also stopped hurting each other and left in a hurry.

All that remained was the mysterious Samsara Lake.

After a long time, an inaudible sigh suddenly sounded in the air, as if it had come from another time and space across eternity. Its strength had been exhausted and it just dissipated in the gloomy wind.
