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

Chapter 215 The Supreme Emperor's Might
The Golden Crow Clan was utterly enraged. Several peerless experts left the Golden Divine Tree Kingdom and set foot in Luzhou, shaking the world.

Everyone knows that the Golden Crow Clan and that person are sworn enemies.

The Second Prince of the Golden Crow and Lu Ming were both extremely important figures in the Golden Crow Clan. It is a disgrace that they both perished at the hands of the same person.

Therefore, only by killing the person who made the move can this shame be washed away.

Tongtian Mountain, tens of thousands of feet high, is very famous in Luzhou. Legend has it that in ancient times, this mountain could connect heaven and earth, but it was destroyed in a divine war.

At the summit of Tongtian Mountain, standing tall above the sky, everything below appears small.

Li Yao and Yan sat on the ground one evening. In front of them was a wine table, and the rich aroma of wine drifted far away on the breeze.

"Senior brother, it's been a long time. How have you been?"

Suddenly, a man dressed in five-colored divine robes and with an evil look on his face flew up to the mountain peak.

The smile that usually graced Yan Yixi's face vanished, replaced by an icy expression. She said, "Why are you so late?"

"There's nothing I can do, I've been caught up in some things." Li Tian's lips curled up, exuding a wicked aura.

"This must be the brother who killed the Second Prince of the Golden Crow and Lu Ming."

"With your immense strength, you are rightfully entitled to possess all the beauties of the world. How about this, I will accompany you to capture Yi Qingwu."

Several days have passed since Tianxuan Mountain, and the news has spread far and wide.

Yan Yixi also gained some fame as a result. Now everyone knows that he and Li Yao are close and left Tianxuan Mountain together.

Li Yao shook his head and refused; he couldn't bring himself to abduct a woman like that.

"Alas, what a pity. She is a rare beauty in this world. Even just one glance at her makes my bones go numb," Li Tian said, intoxicated.

"Alright, enough of this nonsense. I called you here today because I have serious business to discuss." Yan Yixi interrupted, knowing his junior brother well; if he wasn't interrupted, he would have been indulging in this pleasure all day.

Soon, Yan Yixi recounted the whole story, which immediately made Li Tian shout with excitement.

"It should have been done long ago, Senior Brother, you've finally come to your senses."

"Now, with the Goddess Furnace and the Divine Furnace of Departing Fire, we can roam freely throughout the entire Ziwei Palace."

"The most beautiful woman in the world, Yi Qingwu, the goddess of the Human King Palace, the goddess of the Longevity Temple, the princess of the Ziwei Divine Dynasty, and the princess of the Golden Crow Clan, all come into the furnace."

Li Tian was extremely excited and somewhat carried away, standing atop Tongtian Mountain and roaring loudly.

……

Two days later, the three of them arrived together on an unnamed ancient mountain.

This is not some world-famous mountain or river; it's just an ordinary mountain peak.

Such mountain peaks can be seen everywhere, not just over a few hundred miles.

"You hid the Goddess Furnace here, aren't you afraid of being discovered?" Li Yao asked curiously.

Although sometimes the most inconspicuous places are the safest, this is not the mortal world, but the cultivation world.

Sometimes, a major battle can level this mountain range. When that happens, the Goddess Furnace, which is affected by the turmoil, will tremble and reveal a wisp of its aura, which will surely attract attention.

"No, we've set up a magic array. If it's touched, the Goddess Furnace will be sent away," Yan Yixi said.

“There are seven such magic arrays in total, and they are all in order. If this one is destroyed, we can just go to the next magic array,” Li Tian also said.

Clearly, the two had made thorough preparations before hiding the Goddess Furnace, making it impossible for the furnace to be lost.

"I see, that's definitely a safer approach." Li Yao nodded, praising their excellent method.

"Oh, by the way, Brother Li, I haven't asked you yet. Where did you cultivate before? Why have I never heard of you until you killed Lu Tianxu and Daoist Tiansong and became famous?" Yan Yixi suddenly asked curiously.

“Indeed, in all logic, with your talent, Brother Li, you should have become famous long ago, not so late,” Li Tian asked curiously.

“I come from beyond the realm and have only recently arrived on the ancient star of Ziwei. Of course, you could not possibly have heard of my name,” Li Yao told the truth without any attempt to conceal it, as there was no need to.

"From beyond the realm! Where does Brother Li come from?" Li Tian and Yan Yixi asked in shock.

Li Yao stopped, looked up at the sky, and said, "The ancient star I am on is not far from here. You can see its radiance as soon as you look up."

Li Tian and Yan Yixi also stopped and followed Li Yao's gaze. They saw seven stars shaped like dippers shining brightly in the night sky.

"The Big Dipper Star Region! Brother Li, you actually come from the Big Dipper Star Region!" Li Tian was extremely excited.

“Emperor Hengyu also went there after he attained enlightenment,” Li Yao said.

"Why is this? Why are all the emperors going to the ancient star of the Big Dipper?" Yan Yixi asked in confusion.

"According to the calculations of countless sages throughout history, a path to immortality will appear in the Big Dipper Star Region." Li Yao briefly explained some things to the two of them, including the current situation of the Big Dipper Star Region.

"It's unbelievable that more than a dozen imperial weapons exist in a single star field!"

"If you're going to wage war, are you going to sink an entire continent at the drop of a hat?!"

Yan Yixi and Li Tian were shocked, feeling a great shock to their hearts. "Pretty much, but if there really is to be a clash of the ultimate paths, it will definitely have to be outside the realms," Li Yao replied.

As they walked and chatted, they soon arrived at a dilapidated cave.

After the three of them went inside, Li Tian and Yan Yixi started fighting.

First, we need to break the formation, otherwise the Goddess Furnace will be teleported away as soon as it is touched.

Li Yao stood with his hands behind his back, quietly watching his fellow disciples busy themselves, with no intention of getting involved.

Soon, the formation was broken, and the two dug out an ancient-looking furnace.

The Goddess Furnace lives up to its name, resembling a reclining goddess, its surface covered with mottled marks left by time.

However, once activated, this furnace can unleash a world-destroying aura.

For example, as Li Yao circulated the Hengyu Scripture, the Goddess Furnace immediately emitted a radiant glow.

"This..." Yan Yixi and Li Tian were shocked and looked at Li Yao in confusion.

The Goddess Furnace is the most powerful sacred object in the human desire realm, and apart from their lineage, no one knows how to control it.

“I possess the Hengyu Sutra,” Li Yao explained.

"Now I'm even more confident, Brother Li. Let's get started and see if our guess is feasible," Yan Yixi said, handing over the Goddess Furnace with anticipation.

Li Yao took the Goddess Furnace and then took out the Fire-Separating Divine Furnace.

"Buzz!"

Unsurprisingly, when the two divine furnaces appeared simultaneously, they immediately sensed each other and resonated with one another.

Both divine furnaces were crafted by Emperor Hengyu, and the imprints of the laws within them were perfectly compatible.

The once dormant Goddess Furnace is now changing; it seems to have come alive, as if a goddess is truly lying there.

Li Tian and Yan Yixi exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with a sharp light, knowing that their previous guess was definitely correct.

As the controllers of the Goddess Furnace, the two of them clearly sensed that the furnace was awakening and beginning its revival.

However, at this moment, no one was urging it to revive; it revived on its own because it sensed the presence of the Divine Furnace of Li Huo.

At the same time, the Divine Furnace of Li Huo also showed unusual activity. Although it had no deity, the traces of the Great Emperor's Dao were gradually emerging within it.

It was as if the Fire Furnace had acquired a deity and was awakening on its own.

"Buzz!"

The two weapons resonated, their laws merged, crimson divine light filled the sky, and a terrifying divine might began to permeate the nine heavens.

Suddenly, another buzzing sound rang out, and the two weapons trembled simultaneously, breaking free from Li Yao's grasp and beginning to fly.

"Is it going to merge?" Li Tian couldn't help but ask in shock.

"This is too smooth!!" Yan Yixi felt it was too easy, as if the two weapons could be naturally fused together for use.

“Emperor Hengyu must have taken this situation into account when he was refining it.” Li Yao was not surprised. He knew that the Divine Furnace of Departing Fire could be stacked with the Hengyu Furnace.

Outside, the Fire Divine Furnace is a quasi-emperor artifact that has no deity but possesses the laws of the Great Emperor.

However, once it resonates with the Hengyu Furnace, it can unleash the power of an imperial weapon.

At this moment, the Goddess Furnace and the Divine Fire Furnace also resonated, and the two weapons began to share the same deity.

As is widely known, when the Divine Furnace of Li Huo possesses a deity, it can unleash the power of the Great Emperor's Dao, making it a unique imperial weapon.

"Buzz!"

The two divine furnaces swirled around each other, their dazzling divine light radiating outwards. A divine phoenix danced and cried out around a goddess.

Li Yao activated the Controlling Weapon Saint Technique from the Hengyu Scripture, and surging divine power poured into the Li Huo Divine Furnace.

At the same time, Li Tian and Yan Yixi also activated the sacred method of controlling the Goddess Furnace, infusing it with divine power.

"boom!"

At this moment, the world fell into complete silence, all things came to a standstill, brilliant divine light swept across the heavens, and terrifying imperial might permeated the nine heavens and ten earths.

At the same time, the unique Dao imprint on the ancient star Ziwei, belonging to Hengyu, became active, making the two divine furnaces even more active.

"Haha, it's done! Is this the power of an ultimate imperial weapon? With such terrifying power, who can't be slain?!" Li Tian laughed, his evil aura growing even more intense.

"If this force were to descend, I fear it would cause great turmoil in Luzhou. It's truly terrifying." Yan Yixi was also shocked.

This was the first time the two had experienced such terrifying power, and they began to understand just how terrifying a true imperial weapon could be.

Li Yao was also shocked. Although he had guessed beforehand, the moment it actually happened was still unsettling.
