He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

The crane let out a long cry, its feathers as white as jade, glowing and unfathomable, and landed directly in front of Wang Teng's soul lamp.

One after another, the patterns of the Great Dao appeared between heaven and earth, weaving into a dazzling light screen. A surge of Great Dao energy connected to the light screen through the Soul Lamp, and immediately scenes appeared, showing two youths fighting.

The world lost its color, mountains and rivers collapsed, the sun and moon lost their light, and wave after wave of dazzling light exploded from the center. In the distance, one could vaguely see a young man with blood flowing from his body, already at a disadvantage.

The crane's expression changed drastically. It naturally recognized that the one bleeding was Wang Teng. The situation was very bad, and he was no match for the other boy.

The crane spread its wings and dug out an ancient jade platform in the chaotic Gobi Desert. This jade platform could traverse a vast domain. The dark domain gate opened, and the crane immediately flew inside.

There was no time to waste, because it didn't know the exact coordinates of that place, only a vague sense of energy. Even after reaching the Eastern Wilderness, it didn't know how many times it would have to cross the void to actually reach that battlefield. Now it had to hurry.

Meanwhile, on Fire Spirit Ravine, Wang Teng was nearly driven mad by countless broken bones, as if he were possessed by a demon. His hair was disheveled, his teeth were grinding together, and he was filled with raging anger. He had never experienced such pressure from anyone his age.

"I am not reconciled! I have the Emperor's Scripture, the Emperor's Technique, the Divine Phoenix Blood Body Refinement, the Great Emperor's Sacred Artifact, and the Eight Forbidden Rules. Why should I be inferior to you!" Wang Teng roared, his eyes bloodshot.

"All spirits transform into the Dao, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges!"

The various forces in the world transformed into a vast net of the Great Dao, carrying the aura of refining all realms, densely covering the heavens and earth.

"Zheng!"

It was as if ten thousand celestial swords rang out in unison, their clanging sounds echoing, and beams of eternal light appeared in the sky, more dazzling and radiant than the sun itself.

Zhou Qing was like a peerless deity who had stepped out of mythology, an eternal and immortal god-king. The vast Dao roared and rumbled around him, like a heavenly song praising the gods.

Each of his sword strikes was terrifying beyond measure; wherever it passed, it cleaved the heavens and split the earth, causing mountains and rivers to tremble. All tangible matter shattered and turned into flowing lava on the ground.

His eyes were cold, and he exuded an aura of invincibility, like a supreme ruler. Mortals and immortals were all just his lambs.

"You've achieved the fifth transformation of the Dragon Transformation and possess the Eight Forbidden Restrictions, which is quite good. But you should know that not all Eight Forbidden Restrictions are the same," Zhou Qing said calmly.

Some people are at the Eighth Forbidden Level because their combat strength can only reach the Eighth Forbidden Level, while others are at the Eighth Forbidden Level because the only level below the Divine Forbidden Level is the Eighth Forbidden Level.

Rumble!

In all directions, the earth sank, mountains and rivers shattered, heaven and earth roared incessantly, and vast nets were cut apart, burned, and vanished.

"puff!"

Wang Teng continuously resisted the onslaught of the Eternal Divine Light, but each sword light felt as heavy as a mountain. His body trembled violently, his internal organs could not withstand it, and he kept vomiting blood.

This was a terrifying duel; words cannot adequately express the shock it caused. All roads...

People were speechless, and could only see streaks of divine light flashing, each one like a star exploding, an astonishing phenomenon.

In the distance, Tianhen City had already activated its protective array. A blurry figure stood above the city lord's mansion, quietly observing everything.

This is a powerful figure. Tianhen City is one of the ten ancient cities in the Central Region. The city lord of such an important city is often a powerful figure from the ancient forces of the Central Region. This powerful figure is a member of the Feng Clan.

He stood silently in the void, observing all of this from afar, his heart filled with turbulent emotions.

Fire Spirit Valley is only a little over a hundred miles away from Heavenly Mark City. To him, this distance is like it's right under his nose; he can see it very clearly with just his divine eyes open.

However, these two were too destructive. They were moving while fighting, which is why the city's protective formation had to be activated to block the flying mountains.

A fierce battle broke out there, the essence of heaven and earth surged and boiled, the Great Dao roared, and almost everyone on the road was backing away.

However, some people were too bold, and as a result, they were reduced to dust by the aftershocks and scattered by the wind, never to exist again.

"boom"

After hundreds of rounds of fighting, Wang Teng finally couldn't hold on any longer. First, a large hole was pierced through his chest, and blood flowed freely. Then, all the bones in his body exploded, and blood and flesh flew everywhere as his body burst apart.

"what!"

His flesh and blood burst forth with a dazzling golden light, and one Dao pattern after another connected with his flesh and blood, restoring him to his original state.

But at this moment, his face was deathly pale. He had consumed too much of his essence and vital energy, and he would not be able to recover much more.

"Eternal exile!"

Wang Teng shouted, this was not the first time he had used this move. The void ripped open, and layer upon layer of void cracks appeared, intending to throw Zhou Qing into the boundless dimensional space and bury him eternally in the unknown depths of the void.

"Still not giving up? This trick is useless against me. Can't you face reality?" Zhou Qing sneered. He seemed to be standing in eternity, immortal and indestructible. Waves of void turbulence surged in, but they could never sweep him away.

He had already achieved the understanding of his mind, self, and the Way, and the unity of his true self with the Way. Now that he had entered the void, he was not worried about getting lost and was sure he could always find his way back.

The Eternal Exile technique of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor is undeniably powerful; it's a classic example of a move that allows the weak to overcome the strong, and it's useful at any level.

However, it is useless for those who have already achieved the unity of self and Tao. But how many people in the world can achieve this unity of self and Tao? It can only be said that Wang Teng was unlucky at this time, as he happened to encounter Zhou Qing.

"bang bang bang"

Zhou Qing raised his hand and launched a series of attacks like a god, advancing relentlessly with overwhelming force.

Wang Teng was also unwilling to give up, and fought fiercely with Zhou Qing all the way. Blood spurted out, but his eyes became more and more crazed, and his whole body was filled with bloody light.

"boom"

With another deafening roar, Wang Teng was instantly captured.

Wang Teng's physical body had exploded countless times, recovering each time only to be shattered again. His aura had become so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

At this moment, his mind was already blurred, his vital essence was scattered, and his overall condition had plummeted to its lowest point.

His physical body was battered and tattered, and his primordial spirit was also severely attacked in the battle, leaving him extremely weak. His blood energy dissipated in wisps, and he no longer possessed the imposing aura of a dragon-shaped pillar of energy.

Although he had obtained the secret of the former, he had not yet begun to cultivate it and did not possess that immortal primordial spirit. At this moment, Wang Teng's sea of ​​consciousness was drowsy, and he was almost unconscious, barely able to control his body.

"Chong"

A divine light flew from Zhou Qing's fingertip, like a celestial blade, instantly splitting Wang Teng's head open and tearing a gap in his primordial spirit.

"what!"

The intense pain jolted Wang Teng awake. He felt utterly humiliated, his anger surging, and he roared wildly, but he couldn't change anything.

His primordial spirit was severed by Zhou Qing, who also forcibly read his spiritual treasure trove, leaving him furious but powerless to stop it.

Chapter 78 Chaotic Ancient Emperor Symbol

"Slay the heavens! Slay the Dao! Slay my true self!" Wang Teng suddenly roared, and his primordial spirit suddenly burst out from Zhou Qing's hand, transforming into a Dao sword, which immediately slashed down.

"puff"

He severed himself, his physical body turning into a wisp of dust, which transformed into a wisp of pure energy, attempting to fly away and reshape himself.

Suddenly, the wisp of pure energy trembled and transformed once again into a blood-soaked body, its skin shattering inch by inch, turning Wang Teng into a blood-soaked figure.

"what!"

Wang Teng let out a scream. He was unwilling and could not bear it. He had the luck of an emperor and was invincible among his peers, but now he was being held in someone's hands and forcibly read the scriptures. How could this be!

"Don't embarrass yourself by showing off secret techniques you haven't fully mastered," Zhou Qing said calmly.

Although the "Slaying Myself to Understand the Dao Technique" is recorded in the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture, it is an incomplete secret technique. The truly flawless secret technique is found in the "Undying Heavenly Art," created by the Ruthless Great Emperor.

This is an earth-shattering secret technique that severs the past self, enlightens the mind and sees the Dao, transcends the self, and proves the Dao to the future. It can practically reverse the fate of heaven and earth.

If Wang Teng were to actually use it, he could indeed escape from him, but unfortunately, with his current level of understanding, he simply couldn't comprehend such a secret technique. It would be a futile struggle, utterly meaningless.

However, Zhou Qing had learned a lesson. Dense Dao patterns appeared on his hands, spreading continuously and sealing off Wang Teng's divine power. Although he only had a sliver of divine power left, he still had to be on guard.

Brilliant divine light rose from the gap in Wang Teng's primordial spirit, wisps of light, strange and dreamlike. If you listened carefully, you could also hear faint chanting.

Generally speaking, viewing other people's memories is actually very inconvenient, because there are too many mixed memories in a person's mind. Most of them are either useless or accompanied by a lot of negative emotions. If you absorb too much of them, it will also have a certain impact on your own memories.

However, Wang Teng was still relatively young at this time, so Zhou Qing could easily erase the useless memories and extract only the true treasures within.

A phantom figure burst out from the dissected man and sat cross-legged in the ninth heaven. He seemed to be the center of heaven and earth, with the sun, moon and stars revolving around him.

Ancient characters emerged from the phantom, forming a profound scripture before Zhou Qing. Each ancient character shone like a star, shimmering with a dreamlike light.

A dazzling rainbow light emanated from Zhou Qing's brow, merging with the scripture and reflecting it into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Suddenly, nine ancient characters, as radiant as the sun, emerged from the phantom, containing supreme mysteries and revealing boundless divine charm. They underwent continuous and complex transformations, as if these nine ancient characters were expounding the true essence of an imperial scripture.

Wang Teng roared like a wild beast, his body trembling uncontrollably. This was not only due to the severity of his physical injuries, but also because he had suffered a great psychological blow. As proud as he was, he had never imagined that he would be defeated so miserably and without any dignity.

Now, being held like this in front of everyone, as if carrying a dead goose, is an utter disgrace that is driving him crazy.

However, his condition

It was truly terrible. The light of life flickered precariously, divine power was depleted, and the primordial spirit was dim. Apart from constantly growling, it could do nothing.

"If you have the guts, then kill me!" Wang Teng shouted, spitting out a mouthful of blood in frustration.

"Do you think I don't know you have the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Talisman? I killed you so you could escape?" Zhou Qing didn't even glance at him; his gaze was completely drawn to the illusory figure.

This phantom did not emanate any terrifying power; it was merely a legacy. However, even though it was separated by countless ages, Zhou Qing could still sense the aura of an ancient emperor from it.

The illusory figure continuously chanted the Great Dao Scriptures, all the contents of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture, first the Sea of ​​Wheels Scroll, then the Dao Palace Scroll, all the way to the Immortal Platform Scroll and the Forbidden Chapters. Scroll after scroll of scripture appeared before Zhou Qing and were then imprinted into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Fortunately, there were no restrictions locking these scriptures in Wang Teng's sea of ​​consciousness, otherwise it would not have been so easy to extract them. However, this is normal, since these are not the Great Scriptures of their Wang family, but rather an opportunity that Wang Teng himself obtained.

Although Zhou Qing touched some restrictions within Wang Teng's primordial spirit, those restrictions were not those of the Imperial Scripture, but rather restrictions of the Wang family's scriptures. Zhou Qing could not extract those scriptures, but he had never intended to obtain them; his gains this time were already more than enough.

Gradually, Zhou Qing memorized all the contents of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture. Just when he thought it was time to end, another terrifying secret technique was extracted.

"The aura of the Nine Secrets, this is the former secret!" Zhou Qing immediately sensed it. The two Nine Secrets on his body began to circulate autonomously within him, encountering an aura of the same origin.

"Wang Teng, you're truly a treasure," Zhou Qing said with a smile. This really surprised him. Although he knew that Wang Teng had obtained the Qian-character secret when he came to the Eastern Wilderness in his teens, he never thought that Wang Teng would have the Qian-character secret now.

"That's mine! That's mine!" Wang Teng's eyes were bloodshot, his anger was so intense that his lungs felt like they were going to explode, and he spat out several mouthfuls of blood again.

"You don't want to anger yourself to death and then escape using the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Talisman, do you?" Zhou Qing teased.

Soon, Zhou Qing also memorized the secret of the character "前".

Throughout this process, Wang Teng struggled constantly, but was always firmly held by Zhou Qing. His physical body was held up by one hand, while his primordial spirit was dissected piece by piece by the other hand, which was extremely humiliating.

Gradually, Wang Teng's shouts weakened, and he stopped struggling, seemingly giving up.

Zhou Qing was very busy, but he still took a moment to glance at it and saw that there seemed to be a hint of water in Wang Teng's eyes.

"What's wrong with you? You inherited the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor! This emperor suffered countless defeats, faced life and death separations, and lost all his family and friends, but in the end, he broke free from his cocoon and was reborn, proving himself as an emperor. And you can't do that?"

"Do you also intend to become disheartened, lose your will, and abandon your Daoist heart, only to rise again, complete your demonic embryonic stage, and take revenge?"

However, Wang Teng could not hear clearly. His mind was foggy, and perhaps, just as Zhou Qing said, he had been beaten to the point of almost losing his Dao heart and was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

Having grown up to this point, he had never experienced such a crushing defeat. In the Northern Plains, he was like a young emperor.

His presence was extremely powerful, and everyone feared him wherever he went. He was the most dazzling star in Beiyuan. He never paid attention to the existence of other people his age because the gap between them was too big.

Upon arriving in the Eastern Wilderness, he discovered that the Golden-Winged Roc King, who had been invincible among his peers in the Central Region, was utterly insignificant. This gave him the illusion that his peers in the Eastern Wilderness were nothing special.
