Then, Zhou Xuanyuan took out a piece of blue metal about the size of a thumb. This metal was hundreds of times more dreamlike than sapphire, with a crystal-clear blue light flowing around it, just like the most dazzling star in the universe.
"Eternal Blue Gold!" Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise.
This was the first time he had ever seen this metal, but he recognized it immediately. It was an Emperor-level Immortal Material, belonging to the ancient Great Emperors, something that others could hardly attain. Yet Zhou Xuanyuan had taken out such a small piece of Eternal Blue Gold.
"This is all I've gained," Zhou Xuanyuan said nervously.
"Very good, extremely good. To be able to cut these things from the various stone workshops in the Divine City, you truly possess unparalleled talent in Origin Arts, exceeding my expectations," Zhou Qing exclaimed.
Zhou Xuanyuan is a little genius in Origin Arts. His talent in Origin Arts even surpasses his talent in Secret Realm Arts.
His cultivation level in the Secret Realm Technique was only at the first level of the Fourth Extreme Realm, and his combat strength was also inferior to the other two. However, on the land rich in dragon veins, even if the other two little geniuses were combined, they would still be easily defeated by him.
Hearing Zhou Qing's praise, Zhou Xuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, "The things I cut out are still a bit inferior to the Holy Body. I thought I was going to fail the test, but fortunately I still passed in the end."
Ye Fan, standing to the side, was speechless. These kids were driving him crazy. Why did they all always have to compare themselves to him? And how could they be so...
A rough comparison.
He had already cut out the best items from the stone workshops of the various holy sites in the Divine City a few years ago, and the remaining good items would only be harder to find. Yet Zhou Xuanyuan was still able to cut out so many precious immortal treasures. His source technique was much stronger than his back then.
Now everyone on God Island has arrived. Since the Sun Saintess has no mission, she is currently cultivating in the Eight Views Palace, where Little Nannan is also.
"boom"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura erupted from the Fusang Divine Tree, and its terrifying radiance surged in all directions like a vast ocean, awe-inspiring and awe-inspiring.
Countless Zhou family experts were shaken. This aura spread out, causing the heavens and earth to tremble and roar. It was terrifying and caused some people to tremble in fear.
"brush"
This aura appeared briefly and then disappeared immediately, but people still remembered the trembling they had just experienced under its influence—an uncontrollable shaking, a primal reaction of life.
"This feeling... I also experience this kind of pressure when I use the black gourd, but I can only unleash a wisp of it." Ye Fan paused for a moment, then roughly guessed what was emitting this aura.
At this moment, under the Fusang Divine Tree, Zhou Qing's two Dao bodies, which had been unsealed from the Chaotic Ancient War Chariot and the Chaotic Ancient Sword, had already dissipated.
Over the past year, each time the two Dao bodies automatically dissipated after their time was up, Zhou Qing would separate them again every few hours to continue the unsealing process.
Now their work has finally completed the last step, completely breaking the seal on the Chaotic Ancient Chariot and the Chaotic Ancient Sword, revealing the true rank of these two artifacts.
These two artifacts are similar to the small furnace that Emperor Hengyu hid in the Goddess Furnace. The Chaotic Ancient Chariot was the chariot that Emperor Chaoyu used when he traveled in the universe, and the Chaotic Ancient Sword was the sword that Emperor Chaoyu used when he was young.
Both artifacts were inscribed with the Emperor's array patterns, but due to the limitations of the materials, they could only approach the level of an Emperor's weapon, and could not truly reach that level.
The Chaotic Ancient Chariot was obtained by Wang Teng after entering the Ancient God Lake in the Northern Plains, and the Chaotic Ancient Sword was obtained by Wang Teng after entering the Ancient Emperor Mountain. Both the Ancient God Lake and the Ancient Emperor Mountain were things left behind by the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.
"These are the artifacts of the Chaotic Ancient lineage. Am I the successor of the Chaotic Ancient lineage now, or is Wang Teng the successor of the Chaotic Ancient lineage?" Zhou Qing's true form stood up from his seated position, looking at the two artifacts floating in the void, and fell into thought.
Now, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Talisman, and the two artifacts whose seals can only be broken after the successor of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor becomes a saint are all in his hands. If a complete stranger were to judge, he would only think that Zhou Qing is the true successor of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.
“This crane had already plotted against me long ago.” Zhou Qing shook his head and then laughed.
He stole so many things from Wang Teng, but Xianhe showed no intention of taking them back. Whether he would agree or not, Xianhe should at least have the idea of taking them back and come to talk to him, but in reality, he didn't.
However, those schemes meant nothing to him. Even if he encountered some force with a blood feud with the Chaotic Ancient Emperor on the Ancient Star Road, it wouldn't matter. Such things didn't have the right to frighten him.
The three great saints who were cultivating here were also awakened by the fluctuations of the two artifacts.
"It really is that ancient war chariot. Although we are 99% certain that it is the chariot based on the records in the ancient books, the moment it was actually unsealed still shocked me," the Zhou family patriarch sighed.
On that golden chariot, the shadow of an emperor was faintly visible. It was the mark left by the Chaotic Ancient Emperor who traveled in the chariot for many years. If the user's magic power was sufficient, he might be able to make the emperor's shadow completely solid, almost like an incarnation of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor.
That Chaotic Ancient Sword was no ordinary weapon. Not everyone can obtain immortal materials when they are young. Most people can only find enough immortal materials to forge an imperial weapon when they become emperors or after they become emperors.
The Chaotic Ancient Sword was a weapon used by the Chaotic Ancient Emperor before he attained enlightenment, and it may contain his insights at certain levels.
Chapter 274 Blood Moon Clan
The Great Emperor's Enlightenment—though people like to call it that, this name always gives people the impression that it is a profound enlightenment that one can only have after becoming an emperor.
But that's not actually the case. These are traces of the Dao that are etched onto an artifact as it grows alongside its owner. Through these traces, one can see the evolution of that person's Dao.
Each advancement in the master's realm, each transformation of the Great Dao Law, will occur correspondingly within the artifact.
This is exclusive to the strong. Only a sufficiently powerful Dao can leave traces in this process of change. These traces can be activated by later generations under certain circumstances, allowing us to see how this great emperor walked this path in his youth.
For example, his Gate of Chaos contains many traces of the evolution of the Great Dao, especially the evolution of the Great Dao when he severed the Dao and when he became a saint. These two breakthroughs brought the most dramatic changes to the Gate of Chaos and left the most traces.
When Zhou Qing grasped the golden divine sword with a true dragon and a phoenix swirling around it, he probed into it with his divine sense and immediately discovered a trace of the Great Dao that he was very familiar with.
This great Dao pattern is dense and crooked, defying the understanding of cultivators, and it has no aesthetic appeal whatsoever. However, this is the Chaotic Ancient Great Dao.
Although the Chaotic Ancient Emperor had obtained some scriptures from the Ruthless Man and the Void, he could only forge his own path to achieve enlightenment. His own path was closely related to his life experiences, personality, beliefs, will, and many other aspects.
Sensing the traces of the Great Dao in the Chaotic Ancient Era is like seeing a person roaring, going mad, grieving, and regretting between heaven and earth, eventually becoming a demon, crying and laughing, like a ghost wandering between heaven and earth, not knowing where to go, just wanting to vent his power as if he wanted to return the universe to a state of chaos.
The core of the Chaotic Ancient Dao lies in the word "chaos," which is the key point in the cultivation of all Chaotic Ancient secret techniques. Whether it is time, space, or the five elements, yin and yang, any power is completely irregular in the Chaotic Ancient secret techniques.
For example, the Chaotic Heaven Secret Technique, which is relatively easy to cultivate, divides a person's body into countless parts, each located in a different space and at a different flow of time. This is the manifestation of the Chaotic Ancient Great Dao.
The reason for adding "ancient" at the end, in Zhou Qing's conjecture, is probably because the Chaotic Ancient Emperor wanted to return to ancient times and change all the tragedies in his life.
Those experiences are deeply etched into his memory and are an essential part of his life's journey.
Zhou Qing raised his hand and put both the Chaotic Ancient Sword and the Chaotic Ancient Chariot into his body. Then he turned to look at the Zhou family patriarch and said, "Now that the two artifacts have been unsealed, our chances of forcibly entering the Immortal Transformation Pool are much greater. It's time to make our move."
Upon hearing this, even the Kunpeng Ancestor and the Primordial Demon couldn't help but turn their attention to the matter, showing great concern for it.
The Immortal Transformation Pool is a famous legend in the Qinling Mountains of Central China. It is said that the only person to attain enlightenment in ancient times, the Green Emperor, came from there.
Legend has it that the Azure Emperor was originally a blue lotus in the Immortal Transformation Pool. Later, he received unparalleled blessings in the pool and transformed into a human, growing step by step to become the Azure Emperor, a figure that has shaken the ages.
Zhou family patriarch and Kunpeng elder
Ancestors of this level naturally know that the Immortal Transformation Pool is not a legend, but a real immortal pool containing boundless divine materials, truly a creation of heaven and earth.
Although the Zhou family patriarch was not familiar with the Azure Emperor, he knew quite a bit about the Great Emperor Wushi. This was because when the Zhou family patriarch was growing up, the Great Emperor Wushi was still a long time away from passing away. Even after the Zhou family patriarch sealed himself as the God Source, the Great Emperor Wushi had not yet entered his later years.
As far as he knew, the immortal materials used by the Great Emperor Wushi to forge the Wushi Bell were found in the Immortal Transformation Pool, so the Zhou family patriarch was also very eager to see the Immortal Transformation Pool.
"Have you found the real Immortal Transformation Pool?" the Zhou family patriarch asked hurriedly.
In the Qinling Mountains, which stretch for millions of miles, there have been countless people searching for the Immortal Transformation Pool. There are dozens, even hundreds, of Immortal Transformation Pools with steles erected on them, not to mention countless other nameless lakes. Heaven knows which one is real, or perhaps they are all fake.
Throughout history, countless powerful figures have searched for this place, but none could determine which was the true immortal lake, and they all returned disappointed.
"It's almost time. There are still about two years before the Immortal Transformation Pool descends to earth on its own. The heavenly secrets that concealed the Immortal Transformation Pool have mostly dissipated. I have already pinpointed the location of the Immortal Transformation Pool to a very small area. Once I get there, I only need to use the Source Technique to observe the situation and I should be able to find the real Immortal Lake." Zhou Qing nodded.
In order to escape the tragic old age curse of the Source Master, the ancestors of the Cai family used their own Source Techniques to stabilize the Qinling Dragon Vein and buried themselves in the ancient dragon's lair.
Next to the ancient dragon's lair is the Immortal Transformation Pool; the two are adjacent to each other.
His current source techniques are no less than those of the third-generation source master Cai family ancestor. What the Cai family ancestor could do, he can also do.
Finding the Immortal Transformation Pool wasn't difficult for him; the only challenge was figuring out how to force his way through.
Two thousand years ago, both Shakyamuni and Lao Tzu forced their way through the Immortal Transformation Pool. The so-called Ten-Mile Heavenly Gate, which even immortals could not cross, seemed to have no existence in front of Shakyamuni and Lao Tzu.
However, both of them were quasi-emperors, while the Zhou family patriarch did not have such strong cultivation. Therefore, Zhou Qing had been waiting for the two ancient artifacts to be unsealed. In this way, they would have two more powerful magic weapons in their hands, and could try to force their way into the Immortal Transformation Pool.
He refused to believe that with his Origin Master-level Origin Techniques, plus the Zhou family patriarch and several Quasi-Emperor Weapons, he wouldn't be able to get past that ten-mile Heavenly Gate.
"Haha, that's good. I've never seen the Immortal Transformation Pool before, and I don't know what kind of immortal treasures it contains. Maybe it will help me take another half step and become a true Quasi-Emperor. At that time, our Zhou family will truly be fearless!" The Zhou family patriarch laughed loudly.
"Brother, be careful and don't be careless," Kunpeng Ancestor reminded him, lest Zhou Family Ancestor become too excited and greedy, causing himself to fall into danger.
"Should we come with you?" The demon asked Zhou Qing directly.
If Zhou Qing needs him, he will not hesitate to use his combat power. In the past year, he has only been able to transform into a demon for two hours each time, but he has been able to transform into a god for three days. It can be said that he has received a lot of favors from Zhou Qing.
This is a great act of kindness in helping people on their path. It is said that cutting off someone's path to enlightenment is like killing their parents, but helping someone on their path is a great act of kindness.
When a person attains enlightenment, it is an immense blessing, and no amount of repayment is too much.
Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "There's no need for such trouble. Apart from the ten-mile Heavenly Gate being a bit of a hassle, once we're truly inside the Immortal Transformation Pool, there won't be any danger that could threaten me or the Ancestor."
Within that Immortal Transformation Pool, there still exists a murderous intent from the Azure Emperor. As long as that murderous intent is unleashed, all dangers within the Immortal Transformation Pool will vanish.
If that Holy Spirit, who is about to reach the Great Perfection, in the Ancient Dragon's Lair truly dares to emerge and attack them, Zhou Qing won't even need to move. He can simply stand there and watch as the Azure Emperor's murderous intent slays the Holy Spirit.
If we exclude that Holy Spirit, the other beings there would be no match for the Zhou family patriarch; they could control everything.
However, he could not truly entrust his life to the killing intent of the Azure Emperor; that would be completely irresponsible towards his own life. He never did anything without absolute certainty.
"When the time comes, the Ancestor and I will each take a body and go there to seize the opportunity. Even if we accidentally encounter danger, it won't affect us at all," Zhou Qing said with a smile.
After being taught by Zhou Qing, the Zhou family patriarch also mastered the technique of "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones," which allows him to create three Dao bodies with combat power equal to his own at any time.
In Zhou Qing's view, the greatest advantages of this secret technique are several: First, the Dao body that is separated is equivalent to the true body.
Secondly, the Dao Body is not afraid of death. It does not consume any resources. It only needs to cool down for a period of time after death before it can be used, which is really nothing.
Third, memories coexist. When other incarnations die, their memories do not return, and the original body cannot know what the incarnations encountered. However, the memories of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones will return to the original body along with the pure qi.
Suddenly, Zhou Qing's ears twitched slightly as a voice entered his ears, causing a cold smile to appear on his face: "However, this matter will have to be postponed for a while. Now that someone has offended me, how can my Zhou family establish its authority if I don't teach him a lesson?"
"What happened?" the Zhou family patriarch asked.
“Ancestor, just look at the scene on God Island and you'll know what happened,” Zhou Qing said.
The other two Great Sages were also curious about what could have made Zhou Qing's expression so cold. The last time Zhou Qing showed such an expression was when an ancient clan destroyed a major sect, causing Zhou Qing to throw the Supreme Yang Divine Sword at it, turning tens of thousands of miles around into scorched earth.
At this moment, two extraordinary young people arrived on the island of the Gods. They had double pupils, glowing foreheads, and crystalline skin, and were enveloped in a layer of silver mist.
"Wang Shu, Lei Bo, don't be anxious. Tell me what exactly happened," Zhou Qing's Daoist body on the island kept reassuring the two.
However, they were unable to calm down at this moment and were very anxious. They spoke one sentence at a time, and most of their words were pleading with Zhou Qing to save Lei Ying.
Lei Ying is Lei Bo's older sister and the only woman among the three people with the ancestral silver blood, but now it seems that something is wrong with her.
Soon, Zhou Qing extracted some information from Wang Shu and Lei Bo's incoherent words and roughly understood what had happened.
"Are you saying that you suddenly encountered..."
"You were attacked by a group of ancient creatures, and you were no match for them. In order for the two of you to escape, Lei Ying was trapped in the mountains. Half an hour has passed now?" Zhou Qing asked, frowning.
“Yes, yes, that mountain range is very strange. Every night, mist rises, and the bright moon hanging in the sky is reflected in a blood-red color. We thought there was some treasure hidden there, but we never expected that it was actually the dwelling place of an ancient royal family, which ultimately put Sister Lei Ying in danger.” Wang Shu nodded excitedly.
With red eyes, Lei Bo grabbed Zhou Qing's arm and said, "We are much weaker than them. My sister won't last long. They seem to have their eyes on our bloodline and want to extract our blood for their young master's cultivation. This kind of thing absolutely cannot happen!"
The Wang and Lei families are the supreme descendants of the Silver Blood lineage, not ordinary clansmen. They have awakened true royal blood, and their status within the Silver Blood lineage is equivalent to that of the Divine Silkworm Princess in Divine Silkworm Ridge.
Most members of the royal family are ordinary people; true royal bloodlines are extremely rare, and the birth of even one is considered a great blessing for a royal family.
Wang Shu, Lei Bo, and Lei Ying were the three people Zhou Qing placed high hopes on. In the future, when the Heavenly Court was established, the Silver Blood lineage would be able to control an army and become an important part of the Heavenly Court.
