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

“Yes!” Duan De nodded.

The Black Emperor laughed angrily: "Do you even know that the Yaochi Holy Land is mine?! You dare to sneak into my territory to steal things, and you even want to dig up the ancestral graves of the Yaochi Holy Land?"

Duan De laughed: "Brother Dog, what are you joking about? Neither the Queen Mother of the West nor the Holy Maiden of this era are from the dog clan, nor have they ever kept dogs."

The Black Emperor was furious. He had met a like-minded person tonight and they had a very pleasant conversation. Both of them were very interested in digging up sacred tombs and stealing sacred medicines, but he did not expect that the fat man's first target was the Yaochi Sacred Land.

Who am I? The dog of the beginningless era (crossed out), the son of the beginningless emperor (correct)!

Who is Wushi? He is the son of the Western Queen Mother! The Holy Maiden of Yaochi! The Queen Mother of the West!

Therefore, the things of Yaochi Holy Land are things without beginning, and the people of Yaochi Holy Land are people without beginning.

According to this logic, Black Emperor is undoubtedly the current Holy Son and future Holy Lord of Yaochi Holy Land!

Duan De wants to steal from the Yaochi Sacred Land and dig up its graves! How is this any different from stealing from the Great Emperor Wushi and the Black Emperor?!

Bite them to death! Bite them all to death!

Duan De noticed that the Black Emperor's eyes were extremely strange, and a sense of danger was beginning to emerge.

"Brother Dog, why do I see murderous intent in your eyes?"

No, you're mistaken.

"Brother Dog, if you don't want to go to the Jade Pool Holy Land, then I'll take you to the Yao Guang Holy Land, the Ji Family, the Jiang Family, the Four Great Dynasties of Zhongzhou, the Great Thunder Temple of the Western Desert, the Southern Ridge Barbarians, the Golden Family of the Northern Plains..."

Could that murderous intent just now have come from the future? Has my previous secret cultivation reached a new level? Can I predict the future now?

As Duan De thought to himself, he gently removed the Black Emperor's claws from his neck, slowly stood up, met the Black Emperor's eyes, and slowly backed away.

If you encounter a wild animal in the wild, don't panic or show fear. Make eye contact with it, then slowly back away to a safe distance.

One step... two steps... three steps...

"Master Duan, it really is you. I've been searching for you for so long."

A familiar voice reached Duan De's ears, and Duan De said impatiently, "Who is it! Can't you see I'm training the dog here?"

"I apologize for bothering you. As long as you accept this blow, I will leave immediately." The voice came from behind again.

At the same time, Black Emperor stepped forward, baring his teeth: "Fatty, what do you want to scold?"

"I'll bite you to death!"

"Master, could you help me test how hard this hammer is?"

From a distance, Lü Yao only saw Ye Fan and Hei Huang pinning Duan De to the ground, the two men and the dog fighting fiercely, the mud all worn away.

“The people of Beidou are going to suffer. With the three evils coming together, how many sacred places and noble families will be doomed.”

Lu Yao watched from afar, sighing.

Before long, Ye Fan and Hei Huang pushed Duan De and came to Lu Yao.

"Old Lu, this fat guy insists that there's an Emperor's tomb beneath your Yao Guang Holy Land, possibly containing the Emperor's legacy and imperial weapons. He even invited that dog to go with him. What do you think about that?"

Ye Fan pushed Duan De, and the fat man was now standing in front of Lü Yao.

Black Emperor added fuel to the fire: "He also said that Yaochi's tomb can't be dug up, but Yaoguang's ancestors can't be touched either? He wanted to take me and Yezi with him. Bah! Is Yezi that kind of person? Am I that kind of dog?"

"Master Duan, it's been a long time." Ignoring the words of the two men, Lü Yao smiled and looked at Duan De.

"Congratulations to Holy Son Lü on ascending to the position of Holy Son of Yao Guang. I was unable to attend the ceremony, but since we happened to meet this time, I'll make up for it with a gift!"

Duan De was suffering in his heart, but he didn't say anything, hoping to get away with it by giving a gift.

Duan De took out a jade box, about the length of a palm, with flawless emerald green color.

He handed it to Lü Yao with immense heartache, but Lü Yao took it, opened the box, and laughed in anger.

"Who are you trying to fool with a five-hundred-year-old elixir?"

If Lü Yao were still in Lingxu Cave Heaven, he would definitely value this spiritual herb, but now... to put it bluntly, even if he fed a five-hundred-year-old spiritual herb to a dog, the dog might not even eat it.

"Here you go." Lü Yao took out the emerald green elixir from the jade box and tossed it to the Black Emperor.

"Thud!" The elixir hit the Black Emperor's face, further enraging him.

"You surnamed Lü, you've gone too far! I've never eaten a five-hundred-year-old elixir. What's the difference between this and eating roadside weeds? I'll bite you to death!"

Black Emperor shook his head, flinging the weeds to the ground, and bit down on Duan De's buttocks.

"Ah!" Duan De cried out in pain, "Weren't you going to bite him? It wasn't me who gave it to you."

Black Emperor relented, took two steps back, and said smugly, "I can't beat him."

"Enough, stop fooling around." Lu Yao stopped the farce, and Ye Fan, who was picking up the five-hundred-year-old "weeds," was stunned when he heard this.

Six pairs of eyes were fixed on him.

Ye Fan said righteously, "Waste is shameful. Since you don't like it, I'll give it to Master Zhang."

"Enough fooling around, let's get down to business." Lü Yao looked at Duan De: "Why is Daoist Duan here?"

Duan De had disappeared from the martial arts world for a long time, and even the intelligence network of Yaoguang Holy Land had no trace of him. Lü Yao guessed that he must have found some great tomb and was focusing his energy on it.

"The last time we met was at the Azure Emperor's Tomb in the Southern Region. Four years have passed, and you've already become a Holy Son of the Yao Guang Sect. Truly, appearances can be deceiving—"

Duan De learned from the Black Emperor that the boy who robbed him four years ago had become a Holy Son.

Ye Fan interjected, "Don't use idioms if you don't know how to use them. 'Don't judge a book by its cover' isn't used like that."

Perhaps because the cultures of this universe are interconnected, Ye Fan, upon hearing familiar words, could no longer suppress his profound knowledge as a college student and had to show it off.

"Rest assured, Master. I was young and ignorant at the time and was tempted by greed. Just tell me your purpose and I will not do anything reckless again."

Lu Yao reassured Duan De a little, not wanting to scare him away. He still wanted to know if Duan De had really found a place related to the Emperor.

"Hmph!" Duan De breathed a sigh of relief, but his imposing manner remained: "I was originally in the Southern Region, but my friends there were too enthusiastic, and I couldn't stand it, so I crossed over to the Northern Region."

Ye Fan translated: "We've offended quite a few people in the Southern Region, so we've come to the Northern Region to avoid trouble."

"You!" Duan De was embarrassed when his secrets were exposed.

"What was Master Duan doing in the Southern Region? Why was he being hunted down? And how did he come to know the Black Emperor?"

Lü Yao asked.

Hei Huang definitely didn't know Duan De yesterday; they only met tonight, and immediately hit it off.

Duan De did not answer the first question: "I was just passing by when I saw Fellow Daoist Heihuang. I felt that he had a mysterious aura, so I stopped to investigate. Who knew that we would hit it off immediately and have a very pleasant conversation."

A mysterious aura? Could it be the aura of Purple Mountain? Lü Yao frowned.

Chapter 105 The Place of the Great Emperor's Transformation

Special terrain always has a special aura, and people and things that come and go from it will be tainted by it, but after a while, when the source is gone, it will dissipate.

For example, the ore from the Primordial Ancient Mine and the servants from the Undying Mountain are both imbued with the special aura of the forbidden zone.

Having witnessed the existence of two supreme beings, the Undying and the Beginningless, Zishan itself possesses an extraordinary terrain, so it's understandable that it has a unique aura.

It's just that ordinary people can hardly notice it, but Duan De is well-versed in this art.

Ye Fan and I didn't stay inside for long, but the Black Emperor was sealed inside for seventy or eighty thousand years. This Taoist priest is most sensitive to ancient tombs, Taoist temples, and dangerous places, so it's not surprising that he could sense it.

After leaving Zishan for some time, this atmosphere quickly disappeared.

Lu Yao was certain that the Black Emperor hadn't told Duan De that his aura came from Purple Mountain. The dead dog might seem irresponsible, but he was very shrewd and wouldn't reveal the secrets of the Great Emperor Wushi.

It was Duan De himself who had a sharp eye and keen senses; he took a liking to this dead dog when he passed by.

"Could it be that the Daoist priest stumbled into the ancestral tomb of some holy land in the Southern Region, which led to his being hunted down and fleeing to the Northern Region?"

Ye Fan said quietly.

Once, he and Ji Ziyue were being chased. They had shaken off the cultivators from the Ji family, but then they ran into Duan De. This man had actually been visiting the Ji family's ancestral tombs, and another group of Ji family members were chasing after them, forcing him to continue running away.

Halfway there, this guy found an ancient tomb and stayed inside with him and Ziyue for half a month, keeping company with corpses, before finally leaving after shaking off the Ji family.

"No, no," Duan De denied.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, looked Lü Yao up and down, and had a strange expression on his face.

Lu Yao felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, knowing that this person might be up to something.

"What do you mean, Master Duan? Since there's nothing else, you should leave." Lü Yao gave him the order to leave.

"Don't go."

"You can take Black Emperor with you, and why don't you come with Leaf too?" The Three Evils of the Big Dipper have gathered together; go ahead and cause trouble yourselves.

I am the Holy Son of Yaoguang, a glorious and righteous being. I cannot be involved with you. I definitely will not go into tombs or anything like that.

Duan De set up a barrier to separate Ye Fan and the Black Emperor. He looked at Lü Yao and smiled, his smile like a winter plum blossom blooming in the cold winter, full of hope and vitality.

"Since Saint Lü is a Saint Son of the Yao Guang Holy Land, I wonder if he could take out the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron for use?"

What does this mean? Could it be that there's some great tomb that requires imperial weapons to open? Has Duan De discovered another emperor's tomb?

Aside from this explanation, Lü Yao really didn't know what Duan De wanted the imperial weapons for.

Lu Yao spoke up: "Master Duan, just tell me the reason. Have you found some extraordinary place? Is it an imperial tomb?"

Duan De chuckled: "The Holy Son truly understands my heart. Although it is not the tomb of the Great Emperor, there are two places: one is where the Great Emperor transformed and the other is where the Great Emperor forged scriptures."

What? You actually found two places? Lu Yao remained outwardly calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

Is this the power of the Transcending Tribulation Celestial Venerable? No wonder this person has not appeared for so long and there has been no news of him. It turns out he has been busy with the Great Emperor's Daoist temple.

"What do you mean, Taoist priest?"

“The Holy Son, wielding the Emperor’s weapon, will assist me in entering that realm. The treasures left behind by the Great Emperor will be divided between us, one for each of us.”

"Oh? You get one and I get nine?"

"It is this humble Taoist who will take ninety percent." Upon hearing this, Duan De almost turned and left. You just open a door and you want ninety percent?

"Then I won't go. Please do as you see fit, Daoist Master," Lü Yao refused directly.

Duan De gritted his teeth: "This humble Taoist is seven, and the Holy Son is three."
