Chapter 11 The Emergence of the Demon Emperor's Tomb
The vast Eastern Wilderness was once home to many outstanding figures, whose legendary stories continue to be told and circulated even after many years.

Today, a sudden message reached the Yao Guang Holy Land: someone reported that an ancient cave dwelling had emerged near the Yan Kingdom in the Southern Region.

The cultivators in the Yao Guang Holy Land guessed that it must have been left behind by an ancient powerhouse, so they directly dispatched a team to compete for the fortune within.

In a spacious square within the Yao Guang Divine City, a group of cultivators stood ready, about to use the Dao Pattern Divine Array to reach their destination.

They were all cultivators from the Dao Palace to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, and could be considered the backbone of the Yao Guang Holy Land. After all, cultivators at the Dragon Transformation Realm were already considered big shots in this world.

Surrounded by disciples who had come to watch, Qi Zhe lay hidden in the crowd, listening to the discussions of the surrounding cultivators, his expression somewhat inscrutable.

"If it were the cave dwelling of an ancient powerhouse, we might be able to find ancient scriptures from the Desolate Era, which would be an incredible stroke of luck!"

"Indeed, the emergence of this powerful figure's cave dwelling was not reported by the Lingxu Cave Heaven. Perhaps they intend to monopolize the fortune."

"."

The group of Yao Guang cultivators continued their incessant discussion, which only deepened Qi Zhe's unease. He couldn't help but wonder inwardly:

"Could the powerful cave dwellings that have appeared near the Spirit Ruins Grotto be the emergence of the Demon Emperor's tomb?"

According to Qi Zhe's memory, there is a volcano in the primitive ruins near Lingxu Cave Heaven, and right under that volcano is the tomb left by the Azure Emperor. Now is definitely the time for its birth.

Qi Zhe suddenly thought of many things, realizing that Ye Fan might have left Lingxu Cave Heaven and was about to begin his wandering journey.

"Ye Fan has arrived, and the great changes in the Eastern Wilderness will surely follow." As he pondered this, Qi Zhe felt a sense of urgency and knew that he had to improve his cultivation as soon as possible.

However, I'm afraid I can't participate in the Demon Emperor's tomb. After all, as a mere cultivator at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm, I'm not qualified to even touch the mausoleum of a great emperor.

As Qi Zhe pondered, the Dao patterns densely covering the plaza began to shimmer with divine light, and the Dao power that distorted heaven and earth began to spread.

"It's time to go!" With a loud shout, the dense Dao patterns began to tear through the void, and a void passage instantly teleported the group of Yao Guang cultivators hundreds of thousands of miles.

"Mastering Dao patterns is a mark of strength. I wonder when I will be able to achieve such skill." Qi Zhe looked at the scene before him and was quite moved.

"Everyone, disperse. There's nothing more to see," a high-ranking member of the Yao Guang sect said, dispersing the Yao Guang disciples who were watching.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, Qi Zhe walked back to Qian Yuan Peak, accompanied by a young man traveling with him.

The seemingly casual glances from several Yao Guang disciples not far away caught his attention, but when he turned to meet their gaze, he looked away again.

"These guys have been watching me for almost a month. What are they up to?" Qi Zhe wondered.

Some time ago, Qi Zhe discovered that someone was spying on him from time to time on Qian Yuan Peak. Although he had been hiding, he was still discovered. More than a month has passed since then.

He made several guesses but was not sure of their purpose. He once thought that he was being targeted by a ruthless group, but after thinking it over again, Qi Zhe overturned this idea.

It's just that although these people are cultivators, their methods are somewhat clumsy. If they were from the Ruthless lineage, they certainly wouldn't send out such minor characters.

"Junior Brother Qi, please wait!"

However, at that moment, a disciple of Yaoguang dressed in a black jade Taoist robe caught up with Qi Zhe, saying that Han Jing, the junior brother of the Holy Lord of Yaoguang, summoned him to the Taixu Palace.

Qi Zhe, who was about to return to Qianyuan Peak to continue his cultivation, stopped in his tracks and turned to walk towards the continuous palaces of Yaoguang Divine City. "Han Jing has summoned me again. I wonder what it's about." While pondering this, Qi Zhe arrived at Taixu Palace and once again saw Han Jing with a solemn expression.

Han Jing sat cross-legged on the Dao platform. Upon seeing Qi Zhe's arrival, his expression shifted slightly. After gazing at him for a moment, he asked, "Has your cultivation made any progress recently?"

Han Jing was very concerned about Qi Zhe's cultivation level, and his words put some pressure on Qi Zhe, since another month had passed and he had not yet broken through to the other shore.

Qi Zhe shook his head and said, "Reporting to the elder, this disciple has not yet broken through, and it may take some more time."

Han Jing wasn't surprised by this and nodded, saying, "No rush. You must know that haste makes waste on the path of cultivation. This barrier will open naturally when your cultivation reaches a certain level."

"However, I did not call you here today for this reason. You have been a disciple for more than two months and have now received my true teachings. Are there any other matters that I have not yet explained to you?"

"Today I will ask you, do you know that every cultivator must have one thing they cannot be without?"

Han Jing's expression was serious, and the question he posed surprised Qi Zhe. After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's a weapon, something that cultivators can't be without, a weapon that accompanies them throughout their lives!"

Qi Zhe was quite certain that what a cultivator could never give up until death was his weapon. In the ever-striking world of cultivation, only weapons were something a cultivator could not abandon.

Many cultivators can discard other things, such as their sense of righteousness or their affections for their children. Faced with the tide of events, many people give up everything, but the one thing they cannot give up is the weapon in their hand.

Han Jing smiled upon hearing this and nodded, saying, "That's right, the reason I summoned you here today is for your weapon."

"Let me see what kind of vessel you've cast!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhe's expression turned serious. Since he began cultivating, he had been influenced by the Gate of Ascension, and the artifact he forged was a gate.

Now, facing Han Jing, he was not afraid at all. With a flick of his hand, he summoned a beam of green light from the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and a door half a foot high appeared in his hand.

Han Jing stared wide-eyed at the door in Qi Zhe's hand, for it was the first time he had ever seen a cultivator create a door, and he was speechless for a moment.

This portal is currently nameless, forged from hundreds of Bitter Sea Divine Patterns. It lacks the materials needed for casting and cannot be considered a true artifact; it is merely a prototype.

In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, the process of a cultivator forging a weapon involves many steps. The first step is to condense the divine power surging from one's own sea of ​​suffering into divine runes, and then forge hundreds or thousands of divine runes into a rough prototype of a weapon.

Once the rough blank is formed, various materials are gathered to combine it with the blank, and then it is refined into a finished product. This is one method of crafting artifacts.

Anyone can use this refining method; as long as there are materials, various weapons and magical artifacts can be produced continuously.

Above this, there is another method of weapon forging, which requires cultivators to exchange their lives and weapon materials to forge a unique Dao weapon. This weapon can grow along with the cultivator.

And this is the only tool, and the gate that Qi Zhe has built now is moving towards it.

"You've forged a door, which has indeed surprised me. Upon closer inspection, it's quite remarkable!" Han Jing pondered for a moment, looking at the door in Qi Zhe's hand with considerable surprise.

"But I must tell you, forging a great talent is by no means easy, and its difficulty far exceeds imagination!" Han Jing's expression was solemn. He had already guessed Qi Zhe's ambition and couldn't help but want to pour cold water on it.

"So what? I've always been this way. I won't accept anything that's difficult!" Qi Zhe said confidently, directly revealing the arrogance in his bones.
