Covering the Sky: My path to becoming an emperor is invincible, thanks to my fellow cultivation of Y

It's quite rare to see the big black dog looking so dejected.

Only Ye Fan felt a rare pity for the big black dog when he saw it like this, perhaps because Li Wangxian's existence was also a kind of pressure for him!

Therefore, he comforted the big black dog instead, saying, "Since Brother Immortal can do it, it means you can too. Maybe you'll understand it one day!"

"Woof, that's right, I, the Emperor, will also defy the heavens! If Li can do it, so can I!" The big black dog's emotions came and went quickly. Soon he cheered up and clamored to defy the heavens.

Next, the group set off again. This time, with Li Wangxian and the old madman present, they naturally wouldn't be struck by lightning again. However, the greatest danger along the way became the ominous shadowy figures lurking in the dark and the million fire crows led by a Saint-level three-legged ancient golden crow fire spirit they encountered along the way.

Fortunately, their thighs were thick enough that all the ominous and strange creatures were unable to cause trouble in front of the ancient sage, the old madman. They were all severely injured and fled. They made their way across several mountains without any major dangers.

They obtained the Golden Crow Divine Feather, the incomplete True Technique of the Sun, and even saw the Lake of Reincarnation.

"There is only one Lake of Reincarnation in the world. Legend has it that it is related to the ethereal and unknown Immortal Realm, and only a Great Emperor can see it!" The old madman rarely spoke more than a few words.

Then, they left decisively without the slightest hesitation, heading deeper into the sacred cliff.

The old madman walked at the very front, passing through one desolate place after another, until he finally arrived at the deepest part.

The central mountain towers into the clouds, its entire body a dark red, as if it had been soaked in blood, and you can even smell a trace of blood.

This is the legendary Sacred Cliff. On it, the group saw a stone coffin, and as they moved on, they saw a golden ancient scroll on the other side of the mountain.

That's the Investiture of the Gods!

On the massive, pitch-black mountain, there is an ancient golden plaque, sealed on the mountainside, flowing with mysterious energy and exuding a vast and oppressive aura.

"Wait a minute, when was this place sealed off? How come I didn't know?" The big black dog's expression changed again and again!

"It's as if the hand of a Heavenly Emperor-level figure like Wushi is pressing down here; the Undying Daoist is truly in a miserable state!"

Li Wangxian understood the truth of the matter, and therefore did not share the same suspicion and uncertainty as the big black dog.

"If the remnant soul of the Undying Daoist wasn't too threatening, and if the words of the Old Madman weren't too dangerous, I wouldn't have bothered to follow Ye Fan and use his Traveling Secret Technique. Instead, I came alone!"

Li Wangxian sighed. The dangers ahead were nothing. With the Quasi-Emperor Artifact, he was confident in protecting himself. But facing the remnant soul of the Undying Daoist, he really had little confidence.

Next, the group arrived at the foot of the mountain. Ye Fan took out the ancient scroll he had obtained from Lizhou in the Northern Region, examined it carefully, and said, "The Nine Secrets are on the mountain peak, on the truly sacred cliff."

They began to climb the mountain, and the array patterns became even more terrifying when they reached this point. The group followed behind the old madman, not daring to take a wrong step.

If you take a wrong step on this mountain, the killing power you suffer will be equivalent to being struck by a palm from an ancient emperor, and there is no way to escape it!

They walked for a long time, and even with the guidance of the old madman and Li Wangxian, who both possessed array diagrams, it still took them two hours to reach the halfway point of the mountain.

Finally, they took a strange detour before they finally reached the summit!

Afterwards, they saw the marks of Lao Tzu and Shakyamuni next to the Investiture of the Gods!

The big black dog was furious at the person who was randomly carving marks on it. He had just cursed Shakyamuni with his bald head and was about to curse Lao Tzu when Li Wangxian moved his right hand, freezing the void and suppressing the big black dog, silencing him.

"Hmm, what is this, Brother Immortal?" Ye Fan's heart stirred, recalling the Purple Qi Coming from the East Divine Technique that Li Wangxian had once displayed, and a number of associations instantly came to mind!

"This was an extremely powerful quasi-emperor. I received his inheritance, so I can be considered half a disciple of Lao Tzu..."

Li Wangxian spoke up to explain the reason, after all, Laozi had done him a great favor, so he naturally couldn't let the big black dog scold him in front of him!

Only then did he release the big black dog from its grip.

"What? It's actually a mark left by a supreme quasi-emperor..."

Ye Fan and the others looked at each other, stunned by this discovery. In this era, let alone a Quasi-Emperor, even a Saint is hard to find. Now they actually learned of the existence of a Quasi-Emperor. Even the big black dog was momentarily shocked.

"If Laozi was a quasi-emperor, then what about Shakyamuni? Could he have been as well?"

At this moment, Ye Fan's heart was in turmoil. What exactly happened in the mysterious ancient China in the past?

"These two marks don't seem to have been there for very long..."

At this moment, the old madman suddenly spoke. He stared at the mark with a solemn expression, carefully observing it.

"What? Could it be that there are still quasi-emperors living in this world?"

Everyone understood the meaning behind his words and realized that the old madman was implying that the two people might still be in this world. After all, even the old madman, a saint, could live for six thousand years. Who could know how long the quasi-emperors could live?

"Lao Tzu's legacy was left two thousand years ago, and then I obtained it. For a quasi-emperor, that amount of time shouldn't be enough to erase it, unless he is in his later years..."

Li Wangxian looked at the big black dog, who had recovered and was about to start cursing again, with a half-smile.

In an instant, the big black dog, who had thought that no matter how strong the Quasi-Emperor was, was still dead, immediately lost his spirit.

He understood that two thousand years was a considerable period for a supreme quasi-emperor, but it was hard to say that someone might die at that exact time.

Chapter 164 The Secret of the Script is Obtained

"I'm so angry! Drawing all this here is a huge disrespect to the Great Emperor Wushi!" The big black dog was still indignant.

Although briefly stunned, and with Li Wangxian, who claimed to be half a disciple, present, the big black dog could only unleash a torrent of words at the depiction of Shakyamuni.

Afterwards, the group continued forward. During the journey, Ye Fan couldn't help but subtly inquire about Laozi from Li Wangxian.

However, Li Wangxian didn't know much either, and some real secrets, such as Laozi being an ancient venerable who had formed the Samsara Seal, were not suitable to be discussed at this time.

Therefore, in the end, he only gave some basic information passed down by Lao Tzu, and revealed that he crossed the starry sky and arrived at the Big Dipper by using the five-colored altar left by Lao Tzu!

Beside them, the big black dog and Li Heishui, who were hearing about this for the first time, were quite shocked. The immortal who was famous throughout the Eastern Wilderness was actually a person from outside the realm. This was truly astonishing.

Even the old madman looked at Li Wangxian with surprise, scrutinizing him again and again. However, as a saint, the old madman had seen the world. After all, as long as he had coordinates and wouldn't get lost, he could traverse the starry sky on his own.

Thick fog blocked the mountain, and they walked for another hour. During this time, another ancient corpse blocked their way. The old madman stepped forward and fought fiercely for half an hour before finally resolving the situation.

However, because there were too many ancient corpses, the old madman had to study the array diagram again. It wasn't until a day and a night later that the old madman raised his head and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, a golden road appeared under their feet.

"It actually evolved into such a 'Dao,' reaching the pinnacle..."

The big black dog had a strange look in its eyes, and Li Wangxian was also deeply moved. Since his level of cultivation was still a little lower, he had not yet grasped this step and probably needed to ponder it carefully for a while.

And so they continued on the golden road, and after a quarter of an hour they arrived at the top of the peak, but the figures dressed in ancient attire did not approach.

They arrived at a barren and vast land, the ground stained with dark red blood. Hanging on the edge of the sacred cliff was a huge stone coffin, their destination, the location of the "Xing" secret.

Finally, the old madman opened the ancient coffin.

"boom!"

The Great Dao pressed down on the heavens, a Dao diagram lying across the void, extremely clear, like the nine heavens descending, inspiring genuine awe and making people want to kneel on the ground.

"Nine Secrets!"

"The opportunity is right in front of us; whether we can grasp it depends on our own destiny!"

They rushed forward, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to contemplate the Dao diagrams in the sky.

The purpose of this trip has finally arrived. Li Wangxian ignored the big black dog that was clamoring to defy the heavens and instead silently began to comprehend the Nine Secrets Dao Diagram.

Li Wangxian stood frozen in place, gazing up at the Nine Secrets Dao Diagram. He himself seemed to have transformed into an ancient diagram, shrouded in mystery.

"This kind of Dao pattern has a connection to time and space, and it is indeed profound and unpredictable. No wonder it is said that innate Dao techniques cannot block it, and supreme array patterns cannot trap it!"

Li Wangxian was exceptionally perceptive. Although the Nine Secrets were profound and complex, they were not difficult for him. As time passed, Li Wangxian gradually stopped looking at the Dao diagram. The Ninefold Script Secret Heart Method contained within it had been deeply engraved in his heart. Then he began to evolve that Dao and Dharma in his heart. At this moment, he could be considered to have entered the door of the Nine Secrets.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Fan developed a connection with the fully formed Holy Body and obtained the secret cultivation method of the Holy Body lineage in a single secret realm.

Then, the remnant soul of the Immortal Daoist entered the corpse of the Greatly Accomplished Holy Body and took the opportunity to cause trouble, but was defeated by the powerful Investiture of the Gods.

After Ye Fan obtained the Heavenly Court's Assassin's Staff, the group finally prepared to leave this sacred cliff. This cliff was by no means a safe place, and staying there for too long might bring disaster.

Suddenly, when they reached the halfway point of the mountain, they saw a person blocking their way. The person then tried to lure them with two of the Nine Secrets, but no one here was a fool.

Li Wangxian knew that it was a wisp of the primordial spirit of the Undying Daoist who refused to give up.

Faced with this terrifying figure, Li Wangxian did not hesitate this time. He directly summoned the Quasi-Emperor Gourd, which flowed with extreme divine power, and stood together with the old madman.

After all, this is a living, breathing primordial spirit of a Great Emperor. You must know that even a wisp of killing intent from the Azure Emperor could kill a Quasi-Emperor Saint Spirit. Li Wangxian would not assume that he was safe just because of his impression from the original work.

It's always good to be cautious!

"A quasi-Emperor artifact..." The Immortal Daoist's eyes immediately darkened.

"Kill him!" Li Wangxian immediately handed the Quasi-Emperor Gourd to the old madman for the time being. His cultivation level was still too low, and even with a Quasi-Emperor artifact, he couldn't do anything to the other party.

“Alright!” the old madman replied in a deep voice.

Even he hadn't expected that Li Wangxian would be carrying a quasi-emperor artifact.

"boom!"

The crystal-clear purple-gold gourd, under the urging of the sage Old Madman, truly revived his supreme divine power. The boundless imperial aura almost pierced through the nine heavens and ten earths, unleashing the supreme divine power that could destroy all the ancient heavens and earths, and struck towards the primordial spirit of the Undying Daoist.

"A quasi-emperor was nothing more than a slightly larger ant in my past life!"

The Immortal Taoist had a ferocious face, and his ancient Taoist robe fluttered in the wind. He was like a bottomless ancient abyss, devouring all power.

At this moment, he was incredibly terrifying, unleashing an aura capable of destroying heaven and earth. He stretched out a giant hand, treating the quasi-emperor artifact as nothing, and was about to crush the old madman into a bloody pulp.

However, the next moment, the Investiture of the Gods revived, causing him to tumble repeatedly. In the end, having no other choice, the Immortal Daoist's primordial spirit once again entered the mountain's belly.

In the end, they left the sacred cliff safely.

"Woof! A supreme quasi-Emperor weapon!"

The big black dog stared at the purple-gold gourd that had returned to Li Wangxian's hands from the old madman's, drool dripping from its mouth, filled with envy. If it were in his hands, wouldn't he be able to roam freely in the Big Dipper and get whatever he wanted?

"Did Laozi inherit this?" Ye Fan remembered Li Wangxian saying that the imperial weapon of the Sun lineage had long been lost, and this gourd also fits Laozi's image, so he guessed.

“That’s right!” Li Wangxian nodded. For a moment, Ye Fan felt a pang of sadness. He had struggled for so many years, yet he had never obtained a complete treasure.

The Green Bronze Cauldron of Zhongzhou is said to be very powerful, but he only has a piece of old bronze. Even the Assassin's Staff, a sacred weapon he just obtained, is sealed. In contrast, Li Wangxian not only has a sacred weapon, but also an Emperor weapon. A quasi-Emperor weapon is still an Emperor weapon!

This is practically the difference between players who spend real money and those who don't!

Li Heishui was also drooling with envy. At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: the immortal was really rich!

Finally, the old madman nodded, bidding farewell to the group, and then walked away without looking back.

Seeing this, Li Wangxian did not hesitate. After agreeing to meet again in the future, he also displayed the Nine Secrets of the Walking Word Technique. He took one step and reached the end of the sky. With the second step, he disappeared completely.

"This is the Secret of the Word '行' (Xing), and he has completely comprehended the Nine Heavens Diagram, thoroughly understanding it!"

The big black dog barked in alarm. Li Wangxian's move was strikingly similar to the scene when the old madman left. Although he understood that the banished immortal was still far from the realm of a saint, this performance was truly terrifying.

"This kind of ruthless person, Little Yezi, you might not be invincible even in the Great Chengdu of the Holy Body in the future..."

Li Heishui was also speechless. The things that the immortal had shown along the way were too terrifying. It was almost a terrifying potential that could be seen with the naked eye. Even the legendary emperors in their youth were no more than this.
