All the heavens, starting with Little Li Flying Dagger

For Wang Gan, being able to defeat the Holy Son of Yao Guang and become the new Holy Son of Yao Guang was something he naturally longed for.

While the Devouring Demon Jar is excellent, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron is also a genuine Imperial Weapon, and both are extremely powerful Imperial Weapons crafted by ruthless individuals.

When he wields two imperial weapons, and then tricks the old madman into coming to protect him, with two saints and two imperial weapons, he can sink the Central Plains twice!

"Although you are exceptionally talented, have many opportunities, and have broken through to the Dragon Transformation Realm, this Holy Son of Yao Guang should not be underestimated."

"He is said to be the strongest generation of holy son among the successive generations of ruthless people, and the ruthless lineage values ​​him highly."

Li Daoqing's expression turned serious, and he warned...
"How confident are you if you were to face them?"

Wang Gan smiled confidently.
"My master said he belongs to the ruthless lineage, relying on various ruthless secret techniques, but as the Holy Son of Yao Guang, he cannot use forbidden secret techniques,"

"He is no match for me."

Having cultivated for so long, if Wang Gan had no confidence at all, he might as well not live.

The Holy Son of Yaoguang cannot use forbidden secret techniques, but Wang Gan can. This is a victory!
The Holy Son of Yaoguang is old and frail, while Wang Gan is younger, more talented, and cultivates faster. This is the second advantage!
Yao Guang Sheng Zi was merely a Gu-raising expert, while Wang Gan was the Tian Xuan Sheng Zhu, wielding an imperial weapon; this was a triple victory.

In short, we've won so much!
"and"

Wang Gan smiled slightly.
"To be honest, I... have already cultivated to the Eighth Forbidden Realm!"

Li Daoqing's expression froze, a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

"Is this true?!"

The forbidden realm is not something ordinary people can cultivate in. The so-called eight forbidden realms refer to the ability to break through eight minor realms to fight enemies.
The reason why Li Daoqing's old enemy, the Peacock King, could be so arrogant and frequently attack and ambush figures of the Saint Lord level was because the Peacock King was exceptionally talented and had cultivated to the Seven Forbidden Domains, making him one of the most powerful figures in Sendai!
Li Daoqing was naturally aware of the significance of the Eight Prohibitions.
Even the Peacock King, with his unparalleled talent, only reached the seventh level of the forbidden realm, while the other geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness were already quite accomplished at the fifth or sixth level.
As for the Divine Forbidden Realm above the Eight Forbidden Realms, being able to break through more than nine minor realms to fight against an enemy is strictly speaking the threshold for competing for the Emperor's Path. If one cannot even reach the Divine Forbidden Realm, then there is no point in talking about the Emperor's Path!

Although Li Daoqing found it somewhat unbelievable, he knew that Wang Gan would not joke about such a thing.

My disciple Wang Gan has the potential to become a saint!
"very good!"

Wang Gan was already so outstanding that Li Daoqing naturally wouldn't be stingy and showered him with resources.

"Now that you have broken through to the Dragon Transformation Realm, this Dragon Marrow is very beneficial to the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, as it can temper the spine of the great dragon. It is enough for you to break through one or two minor realms."

Li Daoqing raised his hand.

Ten drops of dragon marrow floated in mid-air, bearing dragon scale-like patterns and emanating dragon energy, proving the essence of dragon patterns. This was a rare treasure of immeasurable value, with each drop worth no less than 100,000 catties of pure source!
This rare treasure, which can only be generated by beings at the Saint level who have reached the Dao Transformation stage, can rapidly temper the spinal dragon in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm and greatly enhance the potential of the physical body!
Li Daoqing's expression remained calm, but a deep sense of heartache flickered in his eyes.

Clearly, even for a figure of the Holy Lord level, taking out such a treasure would be quite a painful thing.

"Consider this my advance reward. In addition, I can discuss with those old guys about giving you a full month to study the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron," Li Daoqing promised, offering only the most top-tier resources.

The value of comprehending an imperial weapon is undeniable. Although Wang Gan currently possesses a Devouring Demon Jar, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron is more complete and easier to comprehend than the Devouring Heaven Dao left behind by the ruthless man on the Devouring Demon Jar.

"Thank you very much, Master."

Wang Gan sighed.
Now he is both the Holy Son of Yaoguang and the Holy Lord of Tianxuan.
The burdens of these two holy sites and dozens of large and small countries all fall on his shoulders.

Yao Guang Holy Land

After the pyramid expedition, although the mining area suffered significant losses and the origins of the pyramids remained unclear,

However, the Peacock King's plot to ambush the Holy Lord of Yao Guang failed, the seventh bandit, Tu Tian, ​​was killed by Wang Gan's protector with a single palm strike, and the bandit forces were also dealt a blow. The Yao Guang Holy Land returned victorious.

Wang Gan's reputation grew increasingly due to his outstanding performance on the battlefield. Some called him the strongest candidate for the Holy Son of Yao Guang, while others believed that Wang Gan had surpassed the contemporary Holy Son of Yao Guang.

Wang Gan returned to the Yao Guang Holy Land with the main force of Yao Guang, but instead of immediately challenging the Holy Son of Yao Guang, he took advantage of the opportunity given by Li Daoqing to go into seclusion again.

As for Ye Fan, Wang Gan gave him a task and quietly left.

After all, the Tianxuan Holy Land can't be held up by Wang Gan alone; otherwise, what use would Ye Fan, the Holy Son, be?!
A mysterious hall,
A pitch-black cauldron stood suspended in the air; it was none other than the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, the supreme imperial weapon wielded by the Yao Guang Holy Land!
The entire vessel is cast from black gold with dragon patterns, and its appearance is as majestic as a mountain. The body of the vessel is engraved with nine lifelike dragon patterns, and a black waterfall-like light curtain hangs down, exuding supreme pressure.

Wang Gan sat cross-legged beneath the black and gold cauldron with dragon patterns, his mind racing with thoughts.
"The Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron is said to have been forged by the sages of the Yao Guang lineage over tens of thousands of years..."

A mocking smile curled at the corner of Wang Gan's lips.
"Unfortunately... the gap between those below the Great Emperor and those below the Great Emperor is not something that can be accumulated by sheer numbers."

Once the Great Emperor makes a move, apart from those with the Great Perfection Sacred Body, no matter how many Quasi-Emperors at the Ninth Heaven come, they will all die. Let alone a Saint, even if it were a Great Saint-level being who forged it throughout the ages, it would be impossible to forge an Emperor Weapon.

"If quasi-emperors were born in every generation, there would be a chance to forge an imperial weapon, but unfortunately..."

Wang Gan smirked.
When you think of a Quasi-Emperor as a baby, a Quasi-Emperor is still an Emperor, and those who can become Quasi-Emperors are all capable of embarking on the path to becoming an Emperor. In theory, they are not much different from becoming Great Emperors. Their aptitude and strength are not bad. Some Quasi-Emperors are just lacking a bit of luck.

For example, the quasi-emperor of this era... Gai Jiuyou!
If he hadn't started the path to becoming an emperor too early, and the remnants of the Azure Emperor's Heavenly Heart Imprint hadn't disappeared yet, with Gai Jiuyou's aptitude, becoming an emperor would have been no problem at all.

"Only in this degenerate age of the Eastern Wilderness could such a bizarre legend spread that imperial weapons were forged by sages."

Wang Gan smiled.
After all, in this era, most cultivators have never seen anyone above the level of a saint, and they think that the level above a saint is that of a great emperor.
"In fact, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron was crafted by the Ruthless Great Emperor, or rather, he gave a helping hand at a crucial moment."

"Moreover, the ruthless man's legacy has a hidden trick in the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron. When I take control of the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, I will have to find a way to remove it."

Although he hasn't officially become the Holy Son of Yao Guang yet, it's clear that Wang Gan already considers the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron his for the taking! (End of Chapter)
