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

"Divine thoughts?! Such a thing actually exists in this world?"

The Azure Dragon King was greatly surprised, and the Peacock King and others also looked astonished. As for the younger generation, such as the Little Dragon King and the Little Peng King, they had never even heard of them.

At this moment, Old Peng King spoke up.

"Legend has it that after the death of ancient emperors and those with the Great Accomplishment Holy Body, who were invincible in the world, people would sing their praises out of gratitude for their contributions during their lives. This collective will of all beings would transform decay into magic, and eventually give birth to beings similar to the ancient emperors."

"Similar? Isn't this a different kind of rebirth?"

Little Peng Wang looked shocked, while Old Peng Wang shook his head.

"This is not a rebirth. First of all, the person who is reborn is not the ancient emperor, but just another individual with all his memories. And most importantly, this reborn being is the evil side of the ancient emperor."

"If the ancient emperors were beings of light, selflessness, and kindness, then the thoughts of the gods are beings of darkness, selfishness, and malice!"

Old Pengwang's expression was solemn.

"This kind of being exists only for killing, and regards all living beings as weeds. It is a completely devilish existence."

Even those from families with profound learning backgrounds, like the Holy Maiden of Yaochi and Yan Ruyu, were hearing about deities chanting such things for the first time, and their pretty faces turned pale with fright.

"With something like this here, how can we possibly advance? The power of the ancient emperors is simply beyond our capabilities!"

Zhang Taichu waved his hand.

"That's not necessarily true. Although divine consciousness is the dark side of the Great Emperor, it's ultimately just a spirit. While powerful, it's no match for the Great Emperor. We possess something else that continues the Great Emperor's lineage: the Imperial Weapon. There's nothing to fear!"

Zhang Taichu's words lessened the fear in everyone's hearts considerably.

"Indeed, imperial weapons are also a continuation of the life and lineage of the Great Emperor, and are no less powerful than divine thoughts."

Yan Ruyu summoned the Azure Emperor's Weapon, infused it with her magic power, and a wisp of imperial might appeared, instantly dispelling the gloom in everyone's hearts. The Crimson Dragon Daoist found that even the frantic warnings from his inner consciousness had calmed down considerably.

Sure enough, all the fear stemmed from insufficient firepower. With enough firepower, even the most terrifying things could be reduced to ashes.

Several powerful beings took turns charging the Azure Emperor's weapon, allowing the emperor's might to envelop everyone, and then they headed deeper into the Immortal Burial Ground.

Zhang Taichu even summoned the underground dragon vein to help everyone restore their magical power. The Immortal Burial Ground is one of the tombs of the Undying Emperor, so it is naturally not a place lacking in resources.

There is a dragon vein underground, which is the perfect place for Master Yuan to shine.

Since the younger generation was no longer able to fly, the senior members had no choice but to take them along and head deeper into the Immortal Wilderness.

Soon they passed a pool of water where a level-two Immortal Dragon-Fish Crocodile lived; its sharp dorsal fins were more terrifying than many magical artifacts.

In the original story, this dragon-fish crocodile was evenly matched with three powerful figures.

However, faced with the might of the Azure Emperor's weapon, it decisively backed down and sank to the bottom of the water as Zhang Taichu and the others flew by, not daring to utter a single word.

The group soon arrived at the deepest part of the Immortal Wilderness, where they could see a huge divine palace from afar, with many characters engraved on the palace gate.

The Peacock King and the others searched for a long time but couldn't recognize a single character. Not to mention them, even the Queen Mother of the West couldn't recognize it.

"Judging from this, it should be an ancient script, probably more than a million years old."

"Ancient script... Could it be that this was built by the ancient race?"

After sighing, the Peacock King pushed the door open with his hand. He had expected the door to be extremely heavy, but it opened without much effort.

Before anyone could see what was inside, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted towards them, and the Crimson Dragon Taoist's face lit up with ecstasy.

"It's a miraculous herb! And a very old one at that, possibly even the legendary elixir of immortality!"

Amidst laughter, Daoist Chilong led the group quickly inside. Soon they arrived at a medicinal field made of five-colored divine jade, where six spiritual herbs exuded a rich medicinal fragrance!

"Although it's not an elixir of immortality, it's a king of herbs, eighty or ninety thousand years old, and each plant can extend one's lifespan by at least four hundred years!"

The old demons were overjoyed. They were all people whose lifespans were nearing their end. These medicinal kings were priceless treasures to them. Even legendary holy weapons were not as precious as these spiritual herbs in their eyes!

After some haggling with the five old demons, Yaochi finally gave up on the Medicine King, but agreed that she would have priority in choosing any treasures she encountered next.

The old demons carefully put away the Medicine King, not even leaving the medicine field untouched.

"What a pity, there was an even older king of herbs there, but it had decayed due to its age, and it looked like that was the mother plant of these medicinal herbs."

The Red Dragon Taoist touched the old medicinal herb that had turned into a fossil, feeling very regretful.

The effects of the "King of Herbs" diminish the more you consume it. Theoretically, six King of Herbs can add 2400 years to one's lifespan, but if all of them are consumed by one person, the maximum lifespan gain would be a little over a thousand years.

Otherwise, wouldn't having dozens of king herbs be more effective than the elixir of immortality?

Moreover, the effect of the Medicine King on increasing lifespan depends on the strength of the user; the stronger the user, the less effective the medicine.

They are powerful immortals, which is why they were able to add four hundred years to their lives. If they were saints, they would probably only be able to use them to heal injuries, and they would not have any effect on prolonging life.

Yaochi gave up for two reasons: first, she didn't want to fall out with five old demons whose lifespans were nearing their end; second, Yaochi had a better peach tree, which was cultivated anew using the fruit of the immortal peach tree.

Although its effects are not as good as the elixir of immortality, it is still far superior to this king of medicines.

After carefully storing the Medicine King's medicine, the group continued deeper into the mysterious mansion, arriving at the second floor.

A terrifying aura emanated from the bell; upon closer inspection, it was discovered to be coming from a fragment of a broken bronze bell.

"A sacred weapon! Another legendary sacred weapon! It's a pity it's shattered, but the deity inside is not dead, just asleep."

The Queen Mother of the West picked up a fragment of a bronze bell, sensed it for a moment, and then looked at the Peacock King and the others.

As agreed, this broken bronze bell will ultimately belong to Yaochi.

Although the old demons felt it was a pity, they did not insist. Firstly, the people from Yaochi had just given the Medicine King to them, and secondly, although the bronze bell was a sacred weapon, it was broken into more than a dozen pieces, making it extremely difficult to repair.

Although they are wealthy, repairing a sacred weapon would be extremely difficult, and they might not even be able to gather enough materials for the repair.

Instead of going through all that trouble, we might as well be generous and give it to Yaochi.

However, they also emphasized that now that both sides were even, any future treasures should be subject to fair competition. The Queen Mother of the West agreed and then instructed the five elders to collect all the fragments of the bronze bell, which would be enough to piece together the complete bell.

Zhang Taichu didn't say anything about it. Firstly, he already had the Sacred Mirror, and secondly, the things belonging to the Western Queen Mother would eventually belong to the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, so there was no difference between his wife's things and his own.

Apart from the broken bronze bell, there was nothing of value on the second floor. When the group entered the third floor, a huge lake blocked their way.

"Watch out! The divine message is coming!"
