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

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ye Fan broke free from that inexplicable memory:

"This...this is actually a memory of the Holy Spirit's sermon."

This memory is priceless, probably no less valuable than a complete elixir of immortality.

More importantly, because of the Devouring Heaven Immortal Technique, Lü Yao completely recorded the laws and Dao rhythms of the Chaos Immortal Spirit's tribulation, rather than just simple images, which is the most precious aspect.

But since Ye Fan was willing to give him the incomplete Heavenly Venerable Scripture and the source of all things' mother energy, Lü Yao was willing to give him this memory as well.

"This is too precious." Ye Fan was a little excited. He didn't expect that Lü Yao would be willing to share something like this with him. "If it were a holy land or an ancient family, they would probably be willing to give anything to exchange for this memory."

Lü Yao laughed and said, "We're brothers, we don't stand on ceremony."

When this memory falls into the hands of a sage or a quasi-emperor, it can instantly elevate their foundation to a higher level.

"Right now, our realms are still low, and many of the principles and truths in our memories are difficult to understand. Once we become sages, these memories will be no worse than the complete Imperial Scripture."

Such treatment is probably only reserved for the sons and daughters of ancient emperors.

Ye Fan nodded vigorously, too excited to speak.

Lü Yao also shared with Ye Fan a secret technique of a sage, a fist technique originating from a certain lineage in the holy land.

Ascending to the position of Holy Son, he is the most special Holy Son in the history of the Yao Guang Holy Land, and the Holy Land has given him many special treatments.

The Holy Lord personally visited Dragon Head Peak and had a long conversation with the Peak Master. After the conversation, the Peak Master lifted the restriction on his sea of ​​consciousness.

This was also one of the requests he made to the Holy Lord. Apart from the Yao Guang Ancient Scripture, he had the right to pass on other scriptures and secret techniques to promising talents, which could also be seen as attracting some potential talents to the Yao Guang Holy Land.

For Lü Yao's sake, the Holy Lord agreed.

As long as it's not a wild rumor that spreads throughout the Eastern Wilderness, the Yao Guang Holy Land will definitely not say anything.

If Lü Yao were to encounter the legacy of a sage from another force, he would be prepared to exchange it for the corresponding legacy. This would be far better than having a poker-faced, powerful figure wielding a dragon-patterned black gold cauldron, killing an entire family, and stealing the legacy.

After obtaining the Sage's Fist Technique, Ye Fan exclaimed, "Old Lü, since I met you, I feel that life has become much easier. This fist technique is exactly what I want."

With this fist technique, along with the Mountain-Turning Seal, the Sea-Overturning Seal, and the Great Void Technique, Ye Fan has firmly established himself among the ranks of geniuses, capable of even killing the holy sons of great sects.

"What scripture did you cultivate in the Dao Palace Secret Realm?"

Ye Fan replied, "The Taihuang Scripture you gave me."

As expected, Ye Fan still chose to cultivate the Taihuang Scripture. He hadn't entered Purple Mountain yet and hadn't encountered the Black Emperor, so he had no way of obtaining the Xihuang Scripture.

Ye Fan continued, "However, there's something I think I've found out about that place you mentioned."

"Where?"

"Purple Mountain!" Ye Fan explained, "The locals also call it Demon Mountain. I didn't want to drag the descendants of Master Yuan away, so I led the Ji family away. Otherwise, I really was planning to explore Purple Mountain. Now that things are settled here, how about we travel to the Northern Region together?"

How do you get rid of the strange creatures in Purple Mountain?

Lü Yao refers to the sealed ancient race.

However, Ye Fan interpreted it as a combination of unique terrain and demonic power, and replied directly, "I have a good relationship with the descendants of Master Yuan. They have stone garments left by their ancestors that can resist the demonic power inside."

Okay, that's powerful.

Lü Yao silently gave Ye Fan a thumbs up.

Although he is now in the Dao Palace Secret Realm, far more powerful than in the original story, he still dares to enter Purple Mountain while wearing the stone armor.

They even invited me to go.

Are you going or not? Of course I'm going!

I'm now a man with the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron and sacred artifacts! What am I afraid of? I also have a poker-faced powerhouse acting as a power bank for my imperial weapons.

He agreed to the Holy Lord's request for a protector, wasn't it because he could act as a power bank?

"Then let's wait until the Zhuofeng lineage is born, and after I attend the Taixuan Feast, we'll meet outside Zishan."

Ye Fan knew that Lü Yao's appearance at Zhuofeng must be because he had his eye on the Zhuofeng's 500-year-old inheritance.

"I've prepared some trinkets for the Ji family, and I hope they'll like them," Ye Fan said to Lü Yao after glancing at Ji Ziyue.

He was naturally aware of the origins of the Tai Xuan Banquet, and he still wanted to participate, intending to give the Ji family a severe beating.

"A little gadget?" Lu Yao asked, puzzled.

"I cut a piece of stone from the Primordial Ancient Mine and found some good stuff," Ye Fan said with a smile, without revealing the secret.

"What about Ji Ziyue? I think you two have a good relationship, but you killed members of the Ji family..." Lu Yao pointed to the elfin-like girl outside.

Ye Fan glanced at it and quickly waved his hand, saying, "We are innocent, we did nothing wrong."

Do you think I'd believe that? A modern Earthling, unmoved by a woman in his lap? You're kidding me.

Lü Yao scoffed.

"After I came out of the Primordial Ancient Mine, I directly attacked a group of Ji family disciples, obtained the location of the Ji family princess, Ji Ziyue, and then secretly kidnapped her as a trump card in negotiations with the Ji family."

Ye Fan recalled what happened in the Northern Region and also found it very absurd:

"But you don't know that the Supreme Elder of the Ji family dared to disregard the fact that Ji Ziyue was in my hands and directly set up an array to kill the two of us. In the emergency, she taught me the Great Void Technique and used the Golden Cone to tear the array apart and escape."

Later I learned that the Ji family had also split into many factions, and the Ji family's holy leader outwardly complied but inwardly defied them, even daring to challenge their authority and always wanting to control the Ji family himself.

Ye Fan told Lü Yao the inside information about the Ji family that he had heard from Ji Ziyue.

From this perspective, Ji Haoyue and Ji Ziyue are not particularly close to the Eighth Ancestor Lineage or the Ninth Ancestor Lineage.

"Ah."

Lü Yao nodded.

"Someone."

Suddenly, an old man appeared in Lü Yao's sight. He looked like a vegetable farmer, wearing a straw hat and hemp clothes, carrying a pickaxe in his hand, as if he had just finished hoeing the field and returned.

"It is Senior Li Ruoyu, the peak master of Zhuofeng." Ye Fan recognized the person, removed the restriction, introduced him to Lü Yao, and wanted to pull him forward to pay his respects.

However, Lü Yao did not immediately go up to greet her. Instead, he hesitated for a moment before following Li Ruoyu to her side.

"This junior greets Peak Master."

Li Ruoyu's behavior was strange, and his words did not match Ye Fan's understanding of him: "You are not officially a disciple of Zhuofeng. Find a place to stay halfway up the mountain and wait for the inheritance to begin."

After saying that, he drifted away, leaving Ji Ziyue and Ye Fan looking at each other in bewilderment.

Lu Yao wasn't surprised, but he suspected that the man might have seen through some of his secrets.

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Plea

Li Ruoyu cultivates the natural way, letting everything take its natural course, but from another perspective, he is probably extremely sensitive to things that are not natural.

Ordinary people would identify others by their appearance, body shape, and the fluctuations in their consciousness, but Li Ruoyu might have special means to recognize the unique characteristics of the Yao Guang Holy Land on Lü Yao's body.

Five hundred years ago, the previous generation of Zhuofeng and Yaoguang perished together, causing the Zhuofeng lineage to break down.

Therefore, Zhuofeng and Yaoguang Holy Land have a history of conflict, and it is not unreasonable for Li Ruoyu to have opinions about the disciples of Yaoguang.

If he truly realized he was a disciple of Yaoguang but didn't care, it can only mean that his mental cultivation had reached a certain level.

Of course, there is another possibility: he harbors a sense of reconciliation, provided that the Zhuofeng lineage returns.

Lu Yao prevented the poker-faced expert from coming up and waited for him at the foot of Zhuofeng Mountain, also out of fear that he and Li Ruoyu would fight.

The latter might not hold a grudge against a junior, but if you are a powerful figure, then it's a matter of life and death.

Based on Li Ruoyu's mindset and understanding, Lü Yao didn't really have much confidence in the poker face.

He should just stick to being a power bank and supplying power to the Imperial Weapon; the enemies he's made are probably no ordinary people.

Aside from the powerful figure from the Ji family, whom he had never met before and who had issued a warrant for his arrest.

"Old Lu, Senior Li isn't usually like this, please don't mind him." Ye Fan was unaware of the feud between Yao Guang and Zhuo Feng, and assumed that Li Ruoyu was in a bad mood today, so he explained on her behalf.

"Senior Li's willingness to let me stay, giving me even a sliver of a chance to inherit Zhuofeng's legacy, has already broadened my mind to the point of being as vast as the starry sea."

These are Lu Yao's honest words.

Even if Li Ruoyu didn't realize his identity, it was still very generous of her to allow outsiders to learn the Zhuofeng inheritance.

“I went down the mountain to find a place to cultivate, and I will wait here for the Zhuofeng lineage to appear in the world.”

"Okay." Ye Fan hurriedly said that he would inform him as soon as he found any traces of the mortal world.

After Lü Yao left, Ji Ziyue, who had remained silent, finally spoke up: "Yaoguang and Zhuofeng had a grudge five hundred years ago."

He then told Ye Fan about that grudge.

The two walked side by side, bathed in the afternoon sunset and caressed by the spring breeze.

If Lü Yao saw this scene, he would definitely be disappointed in Ye Zi: Women are tigers!

A month passed, and Lü Yao climbed to the summit multiple times, but there was no sign of the lineage emerging.

Disciples from other peaks would occasionally fly over to inquire about the situation at Zhuofeng. Upon seeing Lü Yao standing alone atop the peak, they would scoff, mutter "idiot" under their breath, and then leave.

Elders from other peaks came to Li Ruoyu's door, wanting to ask him for Lü Yao, but Li Ruoyu replied that he would let nature take its course and respect Lü Yao's choice.

Many elders inquired about Lü Yao's intentions, but were all refused and left in frustration. Some even left behind words such as "I hope you won't regret it" or "The door is always open for you."

In Lü Yao's view, the relationships between the 108 peaks of the Tai Xuan Sect were relatively harmonious, and the atmosphere within the sect was also harmonious, even better than that of the Yao Guang, Ji, and Jiang families.

Perhaps only the sacred land of Yaochi, which has never been involved in worldly disputes, can have such harmony.

"The nine-tiered heavenly ladder is now completely covered in dust."

Ye Fan stood beside Lü Yao, looking at the steps made of nine kinds of ancient jade, and sighed.

The nine-tiered heavenly staircase is of different colors. It does not have dazzling divine light, but only specks of crystal-clear light. Ancient jade occasionally shimmers and ripples with light.

"I'll give it a try first."

Ji Ziyue was quite interested in the trial method of the strongest inheritance of the Tai Xuan Sect from five hundred years ago.

She climbed nine steps in a row, her face flushed and covered in sweat, but she finally stood on the ninth step.

Lu Yao acted swiftly, throwing out six flags to seal off the heavens and earth, stopping the many strange phenomena.
