In the game "Covering the Sky," I can create nine kinds of immortal gold.

Upon hearing this, all three old demons showed expressions of interest.

However, the Peacock King did not ask what kind of treasure it was, but instead asked another question.

"You previously mentioned that you wanted us to help you obtain a legendary sacred weapon and a scroll of scripture. Since it's on par with a legendary sacred weapon, its value must be considerable, right? Could it also be one of the Nine Secrets?"

Zhang Taichu smiled.

"To be honest, I'm not very interested in the Nine Secrets. Even if I were to obtain them, I would only refer to them and not study them in depth. In my opinion, deeply cultivating the Nine Secrets is a very low-cost-effective thing."

"The scripture I want the three of you to retrieve for me is actually an Imperial Scripture, a complete Imperial Scripture!"

Upon hearing this, the three old demons' expressions changed completely, and Little Peng King, who had been watching the four of them play a game of guessing, immediately became displeased.

"Ancestors, what are you talking about? Why are you doing this behind our backs?"

"Shut up!"

Old Peng Wang cursed at Little Peng Wang, who looked displeased but obediently shut his mouth, though he glared fiercely at Zhang Taichu.

Seeing this, Zhang Taichu knew that he had incurred the wrath of Little Peng King. He sighed inwardly and realized that he would probably have to beat up Little Peng King like countless other transmigrators.

This is like saying, "Wearing blue doesn't mean you'll rebel, but wearing a chrysanthemum with an electric drill on it is a bad idea."

If you transmigrate into the world of "Covering the Sky" and don't beat up Little Peng King, then you've wasted your time.

"Young Zhang, can you really find a complete Imperial Scripture? Or is it unclaimed?"

"Hehe, it's impossible for it to be ownerless, but besides me, no one else knows about that Imperial Scripture, so it can be considered ownerless, right?"

The three old demons immediately understood Zhang Taichu's meaning. In other words, the Emperor Scripture was definitely known, but for some reason it was lost to the outside world, and the original owner was unaware of it.

This is interesting. They all understand that the Imperial Scripture doesn't need to be exclusively possessed; only one copy is required.

Of course, the premise is that they keep their mouths shut. Once the news leaks out, the original owner of the Imperial Scripture will definitely hunt them down like mad.

Although these three old monsters are powerful and often raid the mines of the Holy Land, in the end, it's just small-scale fighting.

Everyone knows that the so-called source, even the divine source, is only useful to cultivators below the Dragon Transformation Realm.

Once you reach the Dragon Transformation Realm, what you need is not the Source, but various Dragon Marrow and Divine Marrow. The Source can only be used to restore mana, similar to spirit stones in cultivation novels.

Therefore, whether it's digging for or seizing resources, it's just small-scale stuff, and the Holy Land won't fight to the death with them over something like that.

However, the leak of the Imperial Scripture would definitely cross the red line of the Holy Land. Once it happens, it will be a fight to the death, unless they become powerful enough to leave the Holy Land helpless.

Take Ye Fan from the original novel, for example. He only learned a fragment of the Great Void Technique, yet he was already on the Ji family's kill list.

If it weren't for the intervention of the God King Jiang Taixu, Ye Fan would still be treated like a rat in the street.

The reason the Ji family gave Jiang Taixu face was entirely because Jiang Taixu possessed saint-level combat power at the time. Without revealing his true strength, Jiang Taixu was practically invincible in the Eastern Wilderness.

After careful consideration, the Ji family finally let Ye Fan go.

"A complete Imperial Scripture, plus a legendary holy weapon... Young man Zhang, I'm very curious what you've got to offer us for this?"

The three old demons were now filled with curiosity, but Zhang Taichu only said three words, which shocked them.

"Demon...god...flower"

"Hiss~~"

The three old demons also joined the cause of global warming in the Big Dipper, and immediately took two steps forward to surround Zhang Taichu.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi and her protectors stepped forward to shield Zhang Taichu.

"The three of you seem quite excited, it seems you're very interested in this deal. Here's what I'll do: I'll give you a few days to consider it, and then give me your answer after you've discussed it."

After saying this, Zhang Taichu turned and left with the people from Yaochi. The three old demons wanted to stop him, but considering the existence of Yaochi, they let him go.

"What do we do? Is this kid telling the truth? Does that thing really exist?"

The Azure Dragon King was the weakest and least knowledgeable of the three demons.

The Peacock King nodded slightly.

"That flower does exist. Legend has it that the Demon Emperor rose to power thanks to it. If that's true, it means our demon race has a chance to produce a third Demon Emperor!"

The Peacock King was very excited. Among the three demons, he was the most selfless. In the original story, after hearing that Yan Ruyu was being bullied, he immediately broke out of his seclusion and went to confront the Ji family, where he fought them.

Afterwards, he even protected Yan Yuru and had no intention of seizing the Azure Emperor's weapon.

Comparatively speaking, the Azure Dragon King has his own career and is one of the Thirteen Great Bandits. Although he can be considered acceptable in the face of major issues, he lacks the Peacock King's unwavering spirit.

As for the Old Peng King, he was more like a lone wolf among the demons. He was too lazy to participate in many major events. Compared to protecting Yan Ruyu, he cared more about the upbringing of his descendants.

However, since it concerns the Demon God Flower, Old Peng King also wanted to get involved.

"Should we notify the people from the Demon Emperor's Palace?"

The Azure Dragon King spoke, and the Peacock King thought for a moment before shaking his head.

"Don't notify them for now. The factions within the Demon Emperor's Palace are complex. If we notify them, who knows what kind of trouble they might cause."

"The fact that Zhang Taichu has approached us means that we can handle that secret realm with our own strength. At worst, we can bring the Azure Emperor Weapon. As for the Demon God Flower, we can inform the Demon Emperor Palace after we get our hands on it."

The three old demons discussed it briefly and decided to agree to Zhang Taichu's request.

Just then, a loud bang suddenly came from not far away, followed by a surge of yin energy that turned the entire sky black and made a tsunami-like roar.

"Oh no! There are ghost soldiers underground!"

Someone shouted, and people from all the holy lands quickly gathered around. The holy sons and daughters of the various holy lands made their appearances. This was their stage, and they were ready to make their move.

Almost at the same moment the successor of the Holy Land arrived, thousands of Yin soldiers rushed out from underground and immediately killed dozens of slow-reacting rogue cultivators.

Their bodies were torn to pieces, and some of the ghost soldiers even picked up their remains and began to devour them, as if zombies had been unleashed.

"Amitabha Buddha"

A shout rang out, instantly shattering hundreds of Yin soldiers; it was a young Taoist nun who had made her move.

At the same time, the most impulsive Xiao Peng Wang roared and unleashed his signature move, the 108,000 swords.

A barrage of golden swords slashed out, outnumbering the ghost soldiers, and wiped out the ghost soldiers in front of them in one fell swoop.

However, even more ghostly soldiers soon rushed out, seemingly endless.

"Haha, I'd like to see the Nine Secrets of the Human Race. You can try to take them from me."

The wildly arrogant Little Peng King roared as he charged into the great tomb. Not to be outdone, the Holy Son of Yao Guang, Yao Xi, Xiang Yifei, and other successors of the holy land also rushed in.

After waiting for a while, Ye Fan and Duan De also entered the tomb and began the battle for the Nine Secrets.

Zhang Taichu did not enter the tomb, but instead took out the Soul-Shocking Bell and began to absorb the lingering yin energy left behind by the dead ghost soldiers.
