In the world of "Covering the Sky," my cultivation technique is not right.

Unexpectedly, with just one move, two peak-level Dao Palace experts died.

Could this be a prince of the imperial dynasty on an outing? Or a holy son of an ancient religion? It's absolutely terrifying.

Lu Yao flashed and appeared in front of the other party. He pointed out a hand that was radiating holy light, aiming at the space between the eyebrows.

Although Han Li was startled by Lü Yao's speed, he was unwilling to surrender. A dazzling mark burst forth from his body, as deep and awe-inspiring as an abyss.

Upon closer inspection, the mark was actually cyan, like an ancient blue phoenix with noble eyes, and Daoist patterns forming feathers.

This is clearly an extremely profound secret technique, imitating a certain divine bird among the demon race, and possessing three-tenths of its essence.

But Lü Yao didn't even glance at it. A white divine light danced at his fingertips, and with a "poof," he shattered half of the "Azure Phoenix's" body.

The Azure Phoenix let out a mournful cry and vanished into nothingness. Lü Yao's hand struck Han Li's forehead again, and a beam of white divine light shot into the other's head, instantly stunning him. The fear in his eyes lingered, and his thighs became instantly wet.

Lu Yao's finger strike wasn't meant to kill him, but rather to forcibly read his memories in an attempt to figure out what had happened.

"Han Li?" Lu Yao's heart skipped a beat. It sounded similar to the name of a certain Han Tianzun. He could use Han Li as an alias in the future.

This person is the only son of the White Deer Pavilion Master, and he did it all for his gourd.

But the purpose behind getting his hands on it is quite intriguing... Qin Clan, he and Ye Fan couldn't find it anywhere, but this person is actually a disciple of Qin Clan... What a coincidence.

With a "whoosh!" A white divine light chain appeared in Lü Yao's hand, binding Han Li tightly and sealing his Sea of ​​Wheels.

"It seems I am destined to be with the Qin Clan."

Lu Yao smiled faintly, then began to recite a scripture, and a kind of demonic power kept drilling into Han Li's mind.

Han Li initially tried to struggle, but before he could finish reciting a single scripture, he seemed like a completely different person; the resentment and fear in his eyes vanished. Lu Yao pointed a finger, and the divine chains binding him instantly disappeared.

"Master," Han Li stood up and said respectfully.

The bizarre and demonic technique of the Divine Transcendence Technique, which directly targets the primordial spirit and mind, is found in the accompanying cultivation methods of the Devouring Heaven Immortal Art. This is the very technique that Lü Yao just used.

"Show me the treasures and techniques you have."

"Yes."

Han Li immediately released the Sea of ​​Wheels, took out the treasures inside, and even recited his own cultivation technique.

Lu Yao looked through them and found that apart from one of the four-level array platforms, the rest were all junk.

As for that technique, it was quite interesting; he had thoroughly understood it using Tai Chi.

"Put them all away and take me to Qin Gate."

"Yes." Han Li replied with utmost respect, showing no sign of being coerced whatsoever.

Two streaks of light flashed across the sky, heading towards the Qinling Mountains.

The Qinling Mountains stretch for over a million miles, vast and boundless. For a peerless master in the second level of the Sendai Heaven secret realm, it might take some effort to find clues about the Qin Clan. But for the Dao Palace secret realm, it's practically like finding a needle in a haystack.

But now, with Han Li's guidance, Lü Yao only spent three days to reach the location of Qinmen Mountain Gate, successfully joined the outer sect, and even occupied a cave dwelling.

For the first month, Lü Yao frequented various mountain peaks, eliminating numerous ancient stone carvings, and finally locked onto a certain place. However, this place seemed to be connected to the moonlight, so he could only wait.

In addition, he frequently traveled to the Qinling Mountains to see if he could find an ancient dragon's lair or a pool of immortals.

After finishing his cultivation again, Lü Yao prepared to leave the cave.

As soon as the door opened, a fragrant aroma wafted into my nose.

"Fellow Daoist Lü, would you like to try some?"

The voice was familiar, but how did he know my name? And how did he find this place?

Lu Yao sized up the fat Taoist priest.

The other person was dressed in a black Taoist robe, with a protruding belly, and was smiling. He was holding a beast leg with short, thick, greasy fingers, but the beast leg was roasted to a golden brown and crispy.

A bonfire was burning not far away, and a giant beast, about three meters long, was placed on it.

Lu Yao slowly shook his head: "I dare not eat Master Duan De's food. What if you sell it to me?"

Chapter 41 Duan De

"Tell me, Daoist, why did you come to the Qin Clan?" Lü Yao enjoyed the gentle breeze, his hair fluttering in the wind.

This is a cliff, no more than a dozen feet high. Compared to the sacred mountains that are hundreds or thousands of feet high, this cliff is indeed quite short.

There are four such low mountains in total, divided into four mountains in the east, west, south and north. Each mountain is guarded by a master of the first level of the Immortal Platform, and each mountain has two or three inner disciples of the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm and a small number of outer disciples.

Han Li is a disciple of Xishan, while the master of Xishan was killed by a powerful old corpse in Qinling a few years ago, so his outer disciples can only find their own backers.

As for the inner disciples, they all showed no abnormalities and continued their cultivation as usual.

Luo Taishang, whom Han Li fawned over, belonged to the main mountain, and only inner disciples were allowed to enter.

Lü Yao also entered the outer gate of Xishan.

Of course, the Qin Clan's strength is far more than that. Lü Yao knew that there were also kings hidden in the main mountain, and there might even be half-saints.

More than 20 years ago, the once-famous Biluo King found this place, entered the main mountain, and never left.

This is a hidden sect comparable to a sacred place, extremely terrifying.

Therefore, he usually walks around the main mountain and rarely appears in front of the inner disciples.

Upon hearing Lü Yao's words, Duan De smiled calmly: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, I missed you dearly after our last parting. I cast a divination and learned that you were facing a calamity. I have come here specifically to save you from this predicament."

Lu Yao stopped in Bengbu. This black-hearted bastard was spouting complete nonsense, not a single word of truth came out. He asked again, "How do you know my name?"

Could it be that he ran into Ye Fan after Ye Fan left, and learned his name and background from Ye Fan? Ye Fan isn't that kind of person. Immediately, Lü Yao banished this thought from his mind.

Duan De chuckled slyly: "I learned from the Qin Clan disciples that when we parted last time, you didn't even reveal your name, which greatly hurt our brotherhood."

Brotherhood? When did we become brothers? You're a tomb raider that everyone hates, and I'm the future holy son of the Yao Guang Holy Land.

Lu Yao quietly moved two steps to the side, creating some distance between them.

But Duan De suddenly swayed his big buttocks and slid over, which was really frustrating.

"What exactly is the matter, Taoist priest?"

There are countless ancient tombs in the Qinling Mountains. Could it be that this Taoist priest has taken a liking to the tombs here? I've never heard of any emperor's tomb in the Qinling Mountains. Could it be a sacred tomb?

Or perhaps, the birthplace of the Azure Emperor?

Duan De: "I was originally searching for treasure in the Qinling Mountains when I accidentally discovered this hidden sect. I suspect there is some kind of divine technique here. Fellow Daoist also appeared here a month ago, which makes me even more suspicious."

Lü Yao didn't respond, apparently because Duan De was unaware that there was a military strategy involved here.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, a silence that was unsettling.

Finally, Duan De couldn't hold back any longer: "If you are willing to tell me how to obtain this divine technique, I am willing to tell you about a cave that nurtures divine essence."

"Divine essence? Dream-level divine essence?" Lu Yao raised an eyebrow.

Duan De immediately jumped up: "What a joke! A dream-level divine essence? If such a divine object really existed, I would have taken it myself long ago."

He continued, "The Ten-Thousand-Year Divine Marrow is already a peerless treasure, no less than the Old Medicine King. Many powerful figures outside are willing to pay a high price to buy it."

"Tell me the location first, and I'll tell you where the divine magic is." Lü Yao didn't budge.

Duan De hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Right here."

A divine light shot out from his finger, quickly drawing a portion of the Qinling Mountains map in the void. One of the points of light was the cave where the divine essence was located.

"Shouldn't you tell me how to obtain the divine arts here?" Duan De rubbed his hands together. After obtaining the divine arts, he would go and dig up the two saints' tombs he had discovered, and this trip would be perfect.

Then you can set off to find the Great Emperor's abode.

"Have you noticed that this is not a simple hidden sect? Its foundation is comparable to that of a holy land, especially the main mountain, which has many powerful figures, including even kings."

Lu Yao's voice was ethereal and mysterious, making Duan De's heart itch with desire.

"Of course we found it. If it were in the Eastern Wilderness, the Qin Clan would probably rank in the top fifty."

This ranking is even higher than that of Tai Xuan Sect, because there is a living king here, the Azure King.

"So that forbidden secret technique is on the main mountain. As long as you become a disciple of the main mountain, you can obtain that forbidden technique."

"Is it really that simple?" Duan De was taken aback, his mind on guard, suspecting that this kid was lying to him.

He felt that everyone who went up the main mountain was strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

"Upon ascending the main mountain, there is a test to cleanse your sea of ​​consciousness with scriptures. If you can withstand it, you can join. In the same way, that scripture is the forbidden divine art you seek."

Lu Yao said in a serious tone.

This Taoist priest is incredibly strange. If you were to say that a powerful being's Divine Salvation Technique could convert his primordial spirit through several reincarnations, he wouldn't believe it at all. Even a ruthless person personally would have a hard time getting through.

He didn't believe the divine message Duan De gave him, so his current goal was to get Duan De to the main mountain so as not to interfere with his own comprehension of the military secrets.

The night of the full moon is in seven days.

"Shhh."

Just as Duan De was about to speak, he suddenly saw Lü Yao pretending to pull out a Taoist scripture that all outer disciples had, and then toss one to him.

He didn't know why, but he just opened the book and pretended to read it.

He glanced at Lü Yao and noticed his eyes darting around, occasionally glancing furtively in one direction. So he looked in that direction.

His hand trembled, then he quickly looked away and silently recited the scriptures in his hand.

There stood an old man dressed in black, his hair almost completely gone, with only a few white strands fluttering in the wind. His face was covered in deep purple age spots, and his eyes were calm and still. He stood on the top of the low hill opposite, looking in the direction of the two people.

After a long while, the old man finally left.

Lu Yao took a deep breath: "That's a powerful inner sect master. Forbidden divine techniques are hard to come by. Master Duan, you must be careful."

Duan De: "Since it is a forbidden divine technique, it is of course not easy to obtain, but I think I am quite lucky, so I will give it a try."

"Master Duan, there is one more thing I need to ask."

"what?"

"I have been traveling in the Eastern Wilderness and have long heard of the great name of Daoist Duan. I have heard that you have been wandering outside the ancestral tombs of various holy sites many times, which does not seem like the behavior of a good person."

"Are you trying to set me up with this 'essence'?"
