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

But after Jiang Taixu finished speaking, there was no sound for a long time.

"Senior Jiang Taixu has been trapped here for five thousand years. He may have long since exhausted his life force and need a long time to recover even to say a single word."

Lu Yao remained calm and waited patiently for Jiang Taixu to recover.

About fifteen minutes later, Jiang Taixu's voice came again: "What is your cultivation level?"

"The Four Extremes".

"Dao Palace".

"Cultivated the ancient methods...cultivated...a single secret realm?" Jiang Taixu's weak voice was filled with a hint of hope.

Ye Fan's voice also weakened: "No."

“I am not either.” Lü Yao’s voice was loud and clear, unlike Ye Fan, who showed no shame for his weak cultivation.

Besides, Jiang Taixu asked about "cultivating a single secret realm," but he specializes in cultivating the two secret realms of the Wheel Sea Dao Palace! This is definitely not cultivating a single secret realm. I have cultivated two, and perhaps I can cultivate three more in the future.

The last glimmer of hope in Jiang Taixu's voice vanished, and he said in despair, "Too weak."

"This junior has brought a powerful figure and a sacred sword with him," Lü Yao said. Perhaps because he was too weak, Jiang Taixu's divine sense did not detect the Great Yan Peak Master beside him and the sacred artifact behind him.

Then, after waiting for almost half an hour, Jiang Taixu's voice finally appeared again: "Still a little short, not enough."

He himself had long since become a saint, but his body was too depleted, and he slowly exhausted his energy and spirit here.

If a powerful being wields a sacred artifact and only unleashes a wisp of its sacred power, its strength will be similar to its previous state, and it will not be able to break through the stone wall.

If the sacred artifacts are fully revived, it may awaken the terrifying creatures deep within Purple Mountain. If one or two kings appear, all three of them will die here.

Lu Yao could guess some of Jiang Taixu's thoughts and concerns: "Senior is worried that a full revival of the sacred artifact will awaken the creatures deep in Purple Mountain? But I think that the Emperor Bell of the Great Emperor Wushi will not allow the ancient race at the level of saints to break out of the seal."

Jiang Taixu said, "The Primordial Clan's Dao-Slaying Kings wielding sacred weapons will not be bothered by the Beginningless Bell."

Both Lü Yao and Ye Fan said they wanted to give it a try, and that they had other ideas, even showing their poker faces.

But Jiang Taixu ignored him and said in a weak voice, "I will pass on a secret technique to the three of you."

Two hours later, a withered shadow appeared in the jade wall, with bones clearly visible and skin that had lost its luster and was directly wrapped around the bones.

His hair reached the ground, trailing behind his emaciated body.

"Watch closely." Jiang Taixu struck a strange pose, and a mantra was simultaneously transmitted to Lü Yao, Ye Fan, and Poker Face.

This mnemonic is very short, but extremely obscure and profound.

At the same time, the shadow in the jade disc made a series of movements. If the first movement was the starting stance, then the subsequent movements were the true inheritance.

Lü Yao knew that this was the secret of the word "fight" and quickly borrowed the understanding of Tai Chi.

A Bodhi seed appeared in Ye Fan's hand, emitting a soft green light that enveloped him.

[Your "Tai Chi Chuan" has just awakened from its cultivation state, and you have seen such a secret method to fight against heaven and earth. You feel that you are not alone in your path.]

The "Dou" secret technique not only possesses an air of unparalleled dominance, but also the ability to evolve one method into all methods under heaven. This is remarkably similar to my own path of transforming all methods under heaven into Yin and Yang, and perhaps we can gain some inspiration from it.

Following the incantation and posture, Lü Yao began practicing the Fighting Secret Technique. After just one cycle, an aura of unstoppable fighting spirit emanated from him:

[Your "Fighting Secret" awakens from its slumber, its blood energy soaring to the heavens. Its eyes gleam with disdain, surveying the nine heavens and ten realms with unparalleled arrogance. Its fighting spirit soars to the heavens; even wounded beyond measure, it charges onward! Even if emperors descend, it will carve a bloody path through them! It will become an invincible War Immortal! Fight! Fight! Fight!]

That's insane...

Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Three Secrets Stand Together

As the Douzi Secret Awakens and circulates within Lü Yao's body, two other related secret techniques also begin to operate automatically.

The secrets of the character "皆" and the character "兵"!

Both are supreme secret methods of Taoism.

[Your "All-Encompassing Secret" awakens from its Dao of Derivation, an ancient, noble, and powerful aura rising from your body, clashing head-on with the "Fighting Secret."]

[Your "Soldier Secret" found the "Fighting Secret" extremely arrogant, so it smashed the milk jug in its mouth to the ground, formed hand seals, and countless ancient weapons appeared around it, each possessing supreme power and a great origin. Among them, the phantom images of weapons such as "Cauldron," "Tower," "Palace," and "Sword" were the most powerful. The "Soldier Secret" had deep eyes, forming a triangular stance with the "All" and "Fighting" Secrets.]

Oh no, the baby's angry!

[Your "Devouring Heaven Immortal Technique" and "Tai Chi Fist" are not far apart. The former's eyes slowly rise with intense fighting spirit, attempting to devour these three supreme secret techniques; the latter's Taoist robes flutter, his body merges with heaven and earth, entering a state of enlightenment, seeking to comprehend the most essential Tao and principles.]

Stop fighting! You won't kill anyone like this!

Lü Yao cried out in his heart.

You're all inhuman. What are you doing here? Wouldn't it be better to live in peace and cultivate yourselves?

Especially you, with your Devouring Heaven Demon Art.

[Your "Devouring Heaven Immortal Skill" faltered in its fighting spirit upon hearing you call it a demonic skill; it felt somewhat aggrieved.]

Okay, especially you, with your Devouring Heaven Immortal Technique, how can you eat your colleagues so easily?

Lu Yao roared inwardly.

Bing, Jie, and Dou, you three secretaries, you all better behave yourselves and go do what you're supposed to do!

It seemed as if they heard Lü Yao's shout:

[Your "Soldier's Secret Technique" dispersed the countless celestial soldiers and imperial artifacts, picked up the milk bottle, and departed first to continue refining the Chaos Gourd.]

Sure enough, the soldier was like a baby, and the most obedient.

[Your "Fighting Secret" has restrained its battle intent and bloodlust that shook the heavens, withdrawing from the confrontation. As soon as he awoke, he knew your intentions. He will help you cultivate the Fighting Secret to its full potential, and then seek the method to become a world-class immortal warrior.]

The secret of the "Dou" character has also faded away.

[Your "All-Encompassing Secret" snorted coldly, smoothing the wrinkles in its robes, and continued its secluded cultivation. It had already figured out a way to further strengthen the All-Encompassing Secret. Perhaps it wouldn't rely on luck to trigger tenfold combat power anymore. Before long, you would be able to trigger the All-Encompassing Secret every hundred times, and if you were lucky, you could trigger tenfold combat power in just a few times.]

The secret of the character "皆" has also disappeared.

Even the nine highest secrets of Taoism are not necessarily harmonious, and they may even want to compete for supremacy.

Is this a glimpse into the personality of the ancient celestial being who created them?

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Ye Fan finally mastered the Dou Zi Secret. However, he still needs to continue to cultivate and consolidate his skills until one day he can integrate many secret techniques to form his own Dou Zhan Sheng Fa (Battle Saint Technique).

"I used the Battle Saint Technique to control the Mountain-Turning Seal and the Sea-Covering Seal, and found that their power increased greatly."

Ye Fan was extremely excited after waking up. He possessed two Emperor-level secret techniques, and his attack power was on par with that of the Emperor's son. He had only cultivated the Pinhe Sutra.

Lu Yao had already woken up and was studying the secret of the character "Dou".

"I have also mastered it, and I am grateful to Senior Jiang Taixu for bestowing this method upon me." Lu Yao glanced at Peak Master Dayan, who was still immersed in comprehending the method, and found that he still showed no signs of waking up.

"Senior, have you comprehended the most fundamental Dao of the Battle Saint Technique?"

Ye Fan also noticed that Poker Face had not yet woken up, assuming that as a powerful being, he could comprehend more and deeper levels of the Dao within the Douzi Secret.

After observing for a long time, Lü Yao said quietly, "Never mind him, it will probably take some more time."

The fact that the Great Yan Peak Master followed him into Purple Mountain and received the Douzi Secret Technique was incredibly lucky; where in the Yao Guang Holy Land could one find a secret technique at the Emperor level...?

If this secret technique were taken back and placed in the Hall of Inheritance, the Holy Lord would probably be grinning from ear to ear.

Who knows, he might call him "Dad" like Ye Fan did. Of course, Beidou may not have the common word "Dad," and the people here may not know it either.

But as for the Great Yan Peak Master... according to Lü Yao's observation, the chaotic Daoist aura, the complex Daoist patterns, and the tightly furrowed brows all proved that he had encountered difficulties in comprehending the Douzi Secret.

this......

That's normal, though. While the incantations and postures are in line with the way of fighting in the world, they are too simplified, and Jiang Taixu didn't give detailed instructions.

Ye Fan needed half a month to comprehend the Bodhi seed, so it's understandable that his poker face might not be as convincing...

"The Great Yan Peak Master's aptitude is actually worse than mine, a mere mortal. Even with a secret technique right in front of him, he would have a hard time obtaining the whole thing. I'd be lucky to get even half of it."

Lü Yao then said to Ye Fan:

"Don't worry about him for now. He'll probably need a few more days. You and I will take Senior Jiang Taixu and head forward first. Once we get the Source Book, we'll leave. I'll leave the Sacred Artifact to him, and he can return the way he came."

"How do we bring out the God King? Do we have to fully revive the sacred artifact and forcibly break the jade wall?" Ye Fan asked.

“No, just dig.” Lü Yao plopped down on the ground, waiting for Ye Fan to resume his old ways.

"What am I supposed to use to dig?" Ye Fan's eyes widened.

"Don't underestimate the Golden Cone. You've probably noticed its unusual nature. It's sturdy and sharp, far superior to any sacred artifact."

In Lü Yao's sea of ​​suffering, there was also a piece of bone between his eyebrows. The rune on it was extremely dim, and he didn't know what it meant, but he felt that it was definitely more important than the golden cone.

The space between the eyebrows is the birthplace of the primordial spirit, and is more important than the limbs.

"You really are a heartless capitalist." Ye Fan sighed, a golden cone appeared in his hand, and he walked to the jade wall to continue working as a gold miner.

With the Azure Moon Holy Sword resting on his lap, Lü Yao gazed into the deepest darkness, the place where demonic power emanated: "Senior Jiang Taixu passed on to you a secret technique no weaker than the Forbidden Chapter of the Great Emperor. What's wrong with you doing some hard labor? It's that simple!"

“Unlike me, I have to be constantly aware of the dangers that may appear here. If an ancient creature were to appear, I would have to cover your retreat.”

"Alright, alright, we working people love to work. As Lu Xun said, labor creates the world. To stay away from labor is to stay away from the world, away from society, away from rights..."

Ye Fan brandished the golden cone, muttering strange words as the stone wall gradually disappeared...

Lu Yao glanced at the Great Yan Peak Master again, becoming even more satisfied with this protector.

He was tight-lipped, so tight-lipped that he rarely spoke and never asked what Ye Fan meant by their conversation.

He had a bottom line; seeing the sacred artifact in his hand and the Bodhi seed in Ye Fan's, he didn't show the slightest greed. Of course, the Sacred Sword God recognized him as its master, and the Bodhi seed had a karmic connection with Ye Fan; even if the Great Yan Peak Master took it, he would have to pay a heavy price.

He was extremely concerned about his own safety; he was even able to stop the young, powerful figure from the Ji family from attacking him with the Great Void Technique.

After digging for a long time, the stone wall was broken through, and Ye Fan carried Jiang Taixu out. At this time, Jiang Taixu had completely lost consciousness and had no signs of life.

"What should we do? Take him deeper into Purple Mountain?" Ye Fan had been mining for so long without breaking a sweat; he was indeed the perfect candidate to become the Heavenly Emperor.

“Carry him on your back and keep going. We’re not far from the finish line,” Lü Yao said.

The Azure Moon Sacred Artifact floated up from his knees, hovering above the poker-faced man's head, showering him with azure divine light and protecting him completely.

Lü Yao carved words on the ground: "After awakening from enlightenment, do not go forward again. Return to the place where you are, and we will meet again in the divine city."

"Let's go."
