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

The divine thought appeared as if it had emerged from the void, directly above Yan Ruyu's head, reaching out to grab the Azure Emperor's weapon on her head.

"Buzz"

The Azure Emperor's weapon trembled slightly, and its green leaves swept away the divine thoughts, protecting Yan Ruyu.

"Let's attack together and destroy him with the Imperial Weapon!"

The Peacock King roared, channeling all his magical power into the Imperial Weapon. The Azure Imperial Weapon emitted countless rays of azure light and rapidly expanded to ten meters in size, forming a giant azure lotus that enveloped everyone.

"roar"

The deity roared in anger, unleashing terrifying divine power. The entire burial ground shook violently, and the large lake beside it surged with towering waves.

The younger generation, including Xiao Peng Wang, turned pale with fright. They felt that if it weren't for the protection of the Azure Emperor's weapon, the deity's shout would have been enough to shatter their bodies and turn them into a cloud of blood mist!

"What kind of cultivation level is this?!"

The little dragon king in green robes began to tremble. Zhang Taichu activated the source array with all his might and injected spiritual energy into the bodies of the Peacock King and others so that they would not have to worry about consumption and could fully activate the Azure Emperor Weapon.

"At the very least, they're Saints, possibly even the sixth-level Immortal Saints. They shouldn't be Quasi-Emperors yet, otherwise, even with Emperor-level weapons, we'd still die!"

At this moment, the five old demons, along with the Queen Mother of the West and the five elders of Yaochi, a total of eleven powerful immortals of the second rank, attacked simultaneously, and the Azure Emperor's weapon unleashed its extraordinary power.

This might be the strongest power it has unleashed since it burst out of the Azure Emperor's Tomb.

Lotus leaves grew rapidly, piercing through the void and appearing beside the deity, attempting to penetrate it.

This is a spatial attack, which is generally impossible for ordinary people to dodge.

However, the divine thought dodged with ease. A closer look reveals that it had already dodged almost the instant the lotus leaf pierced the void.

It's obvious that it has extremely high attainments in the realm of spatial manipulation, and it's not a reckless player who relies on basic stats to deal damage.

The Queen Mother of the West and the others looked grim upon discovering this, because they were the ones who were dealing damage using base stats.

While imperial weapons are incredibly powerful, strictly speaking, they are more like tools for easily defeating weaker opponents.

This can be seen from the Dark Turmoil. When facing a Dark Sovereign of the same level, even if the Imperial Artifact is fully restored, it can only injure the Dark Sovereign at most, and cannot threaten the opponent's life at all.

This brings us back to the same old problem: in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, anything that isn't the original owner can hardly unleash its full power, no matter how strong it is.

The Nine Secrets are like this, and so are Imperial Weapons.

Whether it's an ancient aristocratic family or an immortal holy land, even if they cultivate the same imperial scripture, they cannot unleash the true power of an imperial weapon.

Not to mention that the Peacock King and his companions had never even practiced the Azure Emperor's Ancient Scripture, making it even more difficult for them to unleash the power of the Azure Emperor's Weapons.

As for Yan Ruyu, she currently only has the cultivation level of the fourth level, and her mastery of the Azure Emperor Ancient Scripture is only half-baked. The Azure Emperor Weapon in her hands is not as good as the Peacock King's.

Although Shenqi Nian's strength was not that of a quasi-emperor and he could not defeat the Azure Emperor's weapon in a short time, his opponent could not defeat him either, and the situation became deadlocked for a time.

"This won't do. The divine will can easily evade the Azure Emperor's weapons, while maintaining their offensive consumes a huge amount of our mana. We'll be worn down sooner or later!"

"Let's break out!"

Old Peng Wang wanted to rush out at high speed, but gave up the next second.

Because the distant deity, while being surrounded by six lotus leaves, actually transformed into countless forms, his shadow filling the sky.

This wasn't some kind of clone technique, but rather an afterimage left in his eyes when he was moving at extreme speed.

Old Peng Wang himself possesses unparalleled speed, never believing that anyone can surpass him in speed. At the same time, his eyesight and reflexes are also remarkable.

To leave an afterimage in his eyes, the speed difference between the two sides would be enormous, not even in the same league.

"At his speed, he can catch up with us at any time. Once our magic power is exhausted, he will immediately rush up and kill us all!"

The Peacock King was also very fast, and he could tell at a glance that breaking through was impossible.

"What should we do then? Are we just going to wait to die? Queen Mother of the West, why aren't you summoning the Western Queen Tower now?"

The Queen Mother of the West shook her head slightly.

"It's useless. The power of the Western Emperor Tower is no greater than that of the Azure Emperor Weapon. Moreover, with our cultivation level, we can't unleash the true power of an Emperor Weapon. Summoning the Western Emperor Tower will only make our mana consumption faster."

Seeing that he was trapped in a dead end, Zhang Taichu pondered for a while and came up with a way to break the deadlock.

"Gentlemen, could you seal off the entire space to prevent him from escaping?"

Upon hearing this, the Crow Taoist immediately rebuked him without any politeness.

"Shut up, brat! With the speed of divine thought, you could easily break through before the space is sealed off. What kind of terrible idea is this!"

It was Zhang Taichu's deal that put everyone in danger, and Crow Taoist is now furious.

Zhang Taichu didn't bother arguing with him, but instead turned to look at the Western Queen Mother.

"What if it's just a spatial entrance? Can we seal it off in one fell swoop before the deity can react?"

The Queen Mother of the West was taken aback.

"A spatial entrance? You mean a realm within a realm?"

Zhang Taichu pointed to the opposite shore of the lake, where there was a ladder to the heavens, and at the top of the ladder was an opening that exuded spatial power.

"If I'm not mistaken, that should be a realm within a realm, and the Supreme Emperor Scripture should be inside. Once we rush in, we should immediately prepare. If any divine thought dares to enter, we should immediately seal the entrance. That should be achievable, right?"

The Queen Mother of the West nodded slightly.

"If it's just an opening, sealing it off would be quick, but what about afterwards? Just how big is that inner world? We've never been inside, so nobody knows. What if the space is huge? We still can't overcome the power of divine will."

"I have a move that's the natural enemy of divine will, though it takes a bit long to prepare. But once it's successfully activated, that thing is doomed!"

At this moment, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi already knew that Zhang Taichu was about to launch the Heavenly Tribulation. She immediately sent a telepathic message to the Queen Mother of the West, who was shocked upon hearing it.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi nodded slightly, and the Queen Mother of the West took a deep breath upon seeing this.

"Okay, then I'll trust you this once."

"Queen Mother of the West, what kind of riddle are you and your disciple playing? Maintaining secrecy at this critical moment?"

The Crimson Dragon Taoist was a little displeased, but the Western Queen Mother waved her hand slightly.

"The situation is a bit complicated, and it's a little troublesome to explain it and convince you. If you trust me, then cooperate with our actions. If you don't believe me, then we'll split up immediately. I will summon the Western Emperor Tower right away and give Zhang Taichu my full support."

The five old demons hadn't expected the Queen Mother of the West to trust Zhang Taichu so much. Coupled with the mysterious telepathic message from the Holy Goddess of Yaochi, they hesitated for a moment but had no choice but to agree.

After all, if they split up, they would surely die, but following the Queen Mother of the West offered a sliver of hope for success.

"I'll try anything, young man, my life is in your hands!"

Red Dragon Daoist was the first to speak up, and the other four old demons had no choice but to agree. Little Peng King was very unhappy, but he really had no say in the matter, so he could only follow along and fly towards the Heavenly Ladder on the other side of the lake.
