Shrouding the Heavens: Starting by joining the Holy Land of Yao Guang

Chapter 212 Suppressing the Second Prince of the Golden Crow

In recent years, the Sun God Cult has not fared well, as powerful figures have frequently spied on it, suspecting that the Sun God Scripture has not been lost.

This is also the reason why the Sun God Cult gradually declined, because whenever a strong person appeared, they might be attacked and killed inexplicably.

Inside the Sun God Cult, Li Yao and Dongfang Taiyi listened quietly to Yao Tian's story.

“Thirty years ago, our sect also had a powerful figure, but he perished on the eve of the Immortal Three’s Path Severance,” Yao Tian sighed.

That was a tragedy for the entire Sun God Cult. The hope of revival that had finally emerged was abruptly cut short.

"Do you know who did it?" Li Yao asked.

"I don't know. The other party didn't reveal their identity at all, and the location was extremely remote. No one saw them," Yao Tian shook his head.

He didn't think about investigating, because even if he knew who the enemy was, it wouldn't be of any use.

The strongest members of the Sun God Cult have all perished at the hands of this opponent, so their strength is unimaginable; they are not someone the Sun God Cult can afford to offend.

"These damned scum! The Holy Emperor protected all living beings and even bestowed the True Scripture of the Sun upon all sides of the human race to prevent them from being bullied. Yet now his descendants are being treated like this!" Dongfang Taiyi was furious.

As a person from the ancient era, Dongfang Taiyi held the two Holy Emperors in the highest esteem. Whenever he thought about the contributions the Holy Emperors made to the human race, and how their descendants were treated, his anger almost boiled over.

"What about the Taiyin Divine Sect? The two sects are closely linked. When the Taiyang Divine Sect encountered such a thing, didn't they step in?" Then, Dongfang Taiyi asked in a deep voice.

"The Taiyin Divine Sect..." Yao Tian shook his head slightly, unsure how to continue.

Although the Sun God Cult suffered a terrible fate, the Moon God Cult fared even worse.

“Master, there’s no need to worry. Just speak your mind,” Li Yao said.

He certainly knew about the fate of the Taiyin Divine Sect, but he still had to hear about it from someone else.

After betraying their master, the Duanmu family took over everything from the Taiyin Divine Sect and is now one of the most powerful forces on the Ziwei Ancient Star.

Normally, few people would talk about this matter, for fear of retaliation from the Duanmu family.

Therefore, after Li Yao and Dongfang Taiyi arrived in Ziwei, they had not yet heard about the fate of the Taiyin Divine Sect.

"The lineage of the Taiyin Divine Sect has changed hands, and the bloodline of the Human Emperor has been completely slaughtered. The one who now controls the Taiyin Divine Sect is the former Duanmu family." Yao Yue stepped forward and revealed this fact that everyone in Ziwei knew.

Dongfang Taiyi was utterly enraged. His pupils shot out divine light, one golden and radiant with the supreme yang power of the sun, the other pitch black with the supreme yin power of the sun.

When Yin and Yang are in harmony, one becomes the emperor of the world!
At this moment, Dongfang Taiyi seemed to be one with god and demon. Even without being released, his terrifying aura made people feel heavy-hearted, as if the sky was pressing down on them.

"The power of the Sun!" Yao Tian exclaimed in surprise, looking at the old man with a puzzled expression.

The solar holy power emanating from the other party was incredibly pure, undoubtedly obtained through cultivating the Ancient Solar Scripture.

But in today's world, where can one find the complete text of the Ancient Sun Scripture? Even the Sun God Cult only possesses one or two fragments.

"In the ancient times, the Ziwei Ancient Star sent a large number of humans to other ancient stars, and the senior Dongfang Taiyi was one of them."

At that time, the Taiyin Ancient Scripture and the Taiyang Ancient Scripture were not top secrets; anyone with exceptional talent would receive a copy of one of the true scriptures.

Looking at the two shocked people, Li Yao revealed Dongfang Taiyi's identity.

"People from the ancient times!" Yao Tian and Yao Yue exclaimed, their hearts filled with astonishment.

"I was deeply indebted to both religions. First, I learned the Ancient Scripture of the Sun, and later I asked the ancient saint of the Taiyin Divine Sect to teach me the Ancient Scripture of the Taiyin." - Dongfang Taiyi.

"Now that the descendants of the two holy emperors have suffered such a calamity, I must seek justice for them."

“I’ll go. Senior, you can stay here and look after them,” Li Yao stepped forward.

The Sun God Cult is now in dire straits, and anyone could wipe them out. To prevent anyone from resorting to desperate measures, one of the two must remain.

When Li Yao first arrived in Ziwei, he also wanted to explore this land and experience the strength of the ancient Ziwei Emperor Star.

Using the Golden Crow Clan and the concept of longevity to hone himself will definitely bring him many benefits.

In this process, we might uncover some hidden forces and wipe out all the trouble on the ancient planet Ziwei.

Li Yao had no intention of holding back against these people.

The Tianxuan Sect, one of the major sects in Luzhou, has produced numerous masters throughout history. Although it cannot compare to the Golden Crow Clan or the Longevity Temple, it is only slightly inferior.

On this day, the former leader of the Tianxuan Sect officially stepped down from his position, and the new leader will be the former vice leader.

At such a time of power transition, some powerful forces will come to the door to bolster the new leader's reputation.

Li Yao also came, because he was certain that such a grand gathering would include members of the Golden Crow Clan and the Longevity Temple.

Rather than seeking them out himself, Li Yao preferred that they come to him.

The Tianxuan Sect is situated atop a majestic mountain, a place rich in spiritual energy and boasting breathtaking scenery, with flowing springs, cascading waterfalls, and ancient divine trees. Today, many people have entered Tianxuan Mountain, including leaders of various sects, renowned experts, and rising stars of the younger generation.

Li Yao climbed the mountain without concealing his presence. His original purpose was to lure the Golden Crow Clan experts and the Longevity Temple experts here. Naturally, he wouldn't bother with such unnecessary trouble.

"Is it him?"

"It really is him. Doesn't this person know that the Golden Crow Clan and the Longevity Temple are looking for him? How dare he show up in front of everyone?"

People noticed Li Yao and immediately began exchanging thoughts, some even whispering in shock.

Meanwhile, someone quietly went outside to spread the news.

In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on Li Yao.

Today, despite it being the day of the changing of the old and new leaders of the Tianxuan Sect, everyone's attention was drawn to Li Yao.

The two leaders of the Tianxuan Sect were also very troubled by this. Why did such a troublesome person have to come to Tianxuan Mountain today?

It is foreseeable that the news will spread quickly, and the Golden Crow Clan experts and the Longevity Temple will arrive soon. If the two sides fight at Tianxuan Mountain, they will be in trouble.

What's most frustrating is that you can't drive them away, because that would offend too many people.

Today, they are the ones who opened their doors to entertain guests. What reason do you have to turn them away?
It should be noted that this was no ordinary person; he was a powerful figure who had killed Lu Tianxu and Daoist Tiansong.

Although the Golden Crow Clan and the Longevity Temple have issued a kill order, who knows what the final outcome will be? If this person leaves both the Golden Crow Clan and the Longevity Temple helpless, then Tianxuan Mountain's act of expelling him will be a serious offense.

Conversely, if they don't drive people away, the Golden Crow Clan and the Longevity Temple can't say anything, because logically speaking, they shouldn't be driving people away in the first place.

"Report! The Second Prince of the Golden Crow Clan has arrived!" A disciple announced loudly outside the mountain gate, his voice shaking the heavens and making it clearly audible to those on the mountaintop.

Now everyone was excited and ready to watch the show.

The second prince of the Golden Crow Clan is a powerful figure, a Saint Lord-level existence. His most glorious achievement was surpassing even the leader of the sect.

Although he is not as good as Yin Tiande, there is no doubt that he is one of the strongest among the younger generation of Ziwei Ancient Star.

Outside the Tianxuan Sect's mountain gate, more than a dozen figures strode in, their golden hair flowing down their shoulders, each strand sparkling like a deity.

The second prince of the Golden Crow Clan looked to be only in his early twenties. He was tall, strong, and agile, with golden pupils that seemed to contain the true fire of the sun, burning intensely.

As soon as he entered the mountain gate, he stared straight at Li Yao.

"It was you who killed my uncle." The Second Prince of Jinwu spoke calmly, yet with great authority and an air of superiority.

"Your uncle, that golden crow?" Li Yao put down his teacup, looking relaxed and unconcerned, not taking the Golden Crow Second Prince seriously at all.

"Hmph, thinking you can offend my clan just because you have some strength? I've seen plenty of people like you, but in the end, they all turned to ashes." The Second Prince of the Golden Crow spoke coldly.

"Oh, with your half-baked True Fire of the Sun, you think you can burn a person to ashes?" Li Yao chuckled.

“If you wish to die, you may come with me out of Tianxuan Mountain,” said the Second Prince of Jinwu.

"Why are you going out? Do you think you can fight me?" Li Yao sat cross-legged, raised one hand, and said, "Let's see if you can block one of my fingers first."

"boom!"

In an instant, a terrifying wave of law spread out, and this world seemed to have been given a command, with the sky pressing down.

The Second Prince of the Golden Crows' expression changed drastically in an instant, and a dazzling golden divine light surrounded his body as he tried to resist the sudden power.

But it was no use. Even though he possessed immense divine power, he was like a small boat in a vast ocean, his bones cracking and popping, like a lump of mud, pressed directly to the ground.

People were shocked and incredulous that the dignified Second Prince of the Golden Crow had been suppressed in such a way!
Few people witnessed the battle in the ancient city. The world only knows that Li Yao defeated Lu Tianxu and Tiansong Daoren, but no one present actually knows the specifics.

Therefore, in their minds, that battle back then was probably a fierce struggle before the outcome was finally decided.

However, what happened today completely shocked them beyond measure.

The Second Prince of the Golden Crow Clan is definitely stronger than Lu Tianxu. He is the crown prince of the Golden Crow Clan and a figure who will dominate the Ziwei Sect in the future.

Although Yin Tiande was stronger than the Second Prince of Jinwu, it was impossible for him to completely crush the Second Prince so easily.

"The Golden Crow is imbued with the essence of solar fire. I wonder what it would taste like if its feathers were plucked and roasted with true solar fire?" Li Yao withdrew his finger, stroked his chin, and muttered to himself.

Although the bloodline of the Golden Crow clan cannot be traced back to the chaotic ancient era, they certainly have bloodlines flowing through their veins.

This creature is a treasure from head to toe; if an ordinary person ate just one bite, it would be enough to sustain their cultivation for a long time.

Of course, he wasn't into that kind of thing; he mainly wanted to prepare some for the people of the Sun God Cult.

The Golden Crow is made entirely of fire essence. Consuming it before cultivating the Ancient Sun Scripture will definitely make your efforts twice as effective.
