Covering the Heavens: Its fortune endures forever, sweeping across all heavens.

The moonlight was as bright as water, the ancient trees on the back mountain swayed gently, and the moonlight flowed, creating a very peaceful atmosphere. Occasionally, the chirping of night birds made the scene even more serene.

Moonlight, like ribbons of silk, fell in strands, illuminating the weapon marks.

In an instant, everything changed.

The clumsy graffiti resembled phoenixes unfurling, about to soar into the sky, exuding an ancient and weathered aura, and possessing a grand and majestic presence, with the imprint of Taoism shimmering within.

A faint, divine sound drifted over.

He saw a celestial map that contained the ten directions of the world. Each map was like a trace of the Great Dao's rules, dancing gracefully. In the end, all the celestial maps were melted together and merged into one, transforming into a chaotic starting point.

Then it exploded violently, the Tao gave birth to One, One gave birth to Two, Two gave birth to Three, and all the clumsy carvings transformed into the essence of the Tao.

He saw a giant bell, unique in the world, representing time and eternity. He also saw an ancient pagoda, divided into nine levels, representing the nine heavens, a boundless realm of space.

Other weapons such as cauldrons, mirrors, furnaces, spears, halberds, and clubs are also presented one by one, each representing a mysterious law, profound and complex.

They are all imprints of the Tao, possessing an indescribable charm.

The next moment, the cauldron, bell, tower, furnace, mirror, spear, and evening star all started to rotate and began to recombine. Then they actually disintegrated, turning into just one word—"soldier"!

Qin Tian opened his mind and focused his thoughts, reflecting the image in his heart. The Bodhi seeds on his bracelet glowed, and the little figure between his eyebrows evolved into the mark of the immortal medicine. His comprehension and wisdom were brought to their peak.

"This is the weapon of the Nine Secrets!"

Another seed of the Nine Secrets fell into his heart, resonating with the other Nine Secrets.

The Secret of the Military is profound and complex, unlike other secrets. It is very numerous, with each word striking the mind and shaking the soul of the cultivator. Moreover, the text is very long.

Rather than a secret, it is more like an all-encompassing book on weapon forging.

From forging weapons to nurturing them and controlling them, it covers everything, from the birth of a weapon to how to use it, in great detail.

The supreme divine technique in the art of controlling weapons can influence even imperial weapons, as long as the cultivation level is high enough.

Once this supreme secret technique is unleashed, everything in the world will be transformed into a weapon of the Master of the Art of War.

Once you encounter such a person, you must be careful of everything in the world, every flower, every blade of grass, every tree, and even your own divine weapon, as they may fall into their hands and be turned into weapons to kill you.

It's hard to put into words. It's like encountering something like this: the weapon you painstakingly nurtured was stolen by someone else, which is incredibly upsetting.

You might even have to pray in your heart, "Please use it gently!"

Even with his current cultivation level, as long as he masters this divine technique, Qin Tian can forcibly control some king-level and saint-level weapons for his own use.

However, what Qin Tian needed was not the method of controlling the troops, but the method of forging the unique immortal weapon using the "Soldier" secret technique.

The method of forging a unique immortal weapon using the "Soldier" secret technique is a prerequisite for cultivating the "Soldier" secret technique. It is extremely mysterious and profound. It condenses a unique weapon ancestor and cultivates a weapon for proving the Dao. It is said to have the potential to become an immortal and is known as the unique immortal weapon.

Only this method can allow Qin Tian's four array diagrams to be perfectly integrated, with the arrays merging together and the Dao traces linking with each other, leaving no flaws whatsoever.

Furthermore, combining the four images will create an incredibly powerful effect.

Qin Tian sat cross-legged on the ground, the moonlight shining on him, making him appear incredibly sacred.

"time to go!"

Qin Tian lightly tapped his feet, and in an instant, invisible Dao traces spread across the entire ground, carving out a void teleportation array on the ground.

Qin Tian's understanding of the Xuan Yu Platform has reached a state of perfection. Even on the ground, he can quickly inscribe array patterns and create a one-time use Xuan Yu Platform.

Skilled in making people feel distressed.

Qin Tian still has a thousand or eight hundred Xuan Yu Platforms lying in the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

As a result of this skill of quickly drawing teleportation arrays, this large pile of Xuan Yu Platforms became basically useless.

The next moment, the void elements gathered and shone with a silver light, and with a whoosh, Qin Tian disappeared from the back mountain.

After Qin Tian disappeared, the forest returned to tranquility, and no one knew that this place had ever been visited.

After arriving at a safe place.

Qin Tian set up a temporary residence, closed his eyes to rest, and continuously developed the "Soldier" secret technique in his mind, determined to completely master this secret art.

The Bodhi seed on his wrist emitted a sandalwood fragrance that enhanced Qin Tian's wisdom and comprehension. Qin Tian remained motionless, his heart filled with peace and tranquility. He focused on his meditation, and his entire being blurred, imprinted in the void.

One day, two days, three days... ten days...

His mind was clear and empty, and weapons materialized in his mind: swords, spears, halberds, axes, clubs, and countless divine weapons emitted piercing sounds, representing a certain rule of the Great Dao and radiating brilliant Dao light.

"The Dao is the name of the formless, while form is the name of the material. All things arise from nothingness, and form is established by the Dao. The Dao comes first, and form comes later. The Dao is above form, and form is below the Dao. Therefore, that which is above form is called the Dao. That which is below form is called the vessel."

Not long after, the Dao weapons in Qin Tian's heart shattered one by one. With each weapon breaking, a Dao sound resonated in his heart. In the end, the shattered divine weapons completely merged together, as if the tangible Dao was pieced together and transformed into one.

A supreme celestial map, encompassing the ten directions of the heavens, shines brightly, representing the eternal Dao.

"It seems that my previous guesses about the Nine Secrets were slightly wrong!" Qin Tian opened his eyes, which were extremely sharp, as if an unparalleled divine weapon was revealed within them.

"Perhaps the secret of the character '兵' was forged by the Primordial Celestial Venerable."

Of the Nine Secrets, the identities of six individuals have been confirmed, leaving only Bing, Qian, and Dou, whose authors remain unknown.

Qin Tian originally thought that the Boundless Heavenly Venerable had forged the secret of the character "兵" (soldier), and the Primordial Heavenly Venerable had forged the secret of the character "斗" (fight).

Now that I have obtained this secret of military strategy, I am trying to understand some of the principles contained within it.

He discovered that these were all things he had heard of on Earth, and that they were once associated with the Primordial Celestial Venerable, which he considered to be the true essence of the Way of the Artifact.

Morality refines elixirs, the Primordial Lord refines treasures, and spiritual treasures refine formations. The Secret of the Art of War happens to be the profound mystery of the Way of Weapons, and it is highly likely that it was created by the Primordial Lord of Heaven.

Qin Tian said, "The Battle Saint Technique may have been created by the Boundless Heavenly Venerable. The word 'Boundless' should refer to boundless battle and boundless supernatural powers!"

This hypothesis is clearly more plausible than previous ones.

Qin Tian was surrounded by a radiant aura, a smile playing on his lips, exuding composure and confidence that made him appear like a divine being in the mortal world.

"The soldier's secret code is ready!"

"Next should be..."

"Come forth, cauldron!" Qin Tian formed a hand seal, using the void as a furnace to distort the void and transform it into an ancient cauldron, simple yet majestic, like a mountain, awe-inspiring to the heart.

After pondering for a moment, Qin Tian took out the Xuanhuang Ancient Cauldron and embedded it in the void. The Mother Qi of All Things is the source of everything, and it can combine all things. In the future, Ye Fan will have this assistance in using the Mother Qi of All Things Cauldron to contain nine different Heavenly Emperor Cauldrons.

"Boom!"

The moment the two ancient cauldrons came into contact, a dazzling light burst forth, tearing through the sky, and even emanating chaotic energy, with auspicious energy flowing continuously.

The two ancient cauldrons were fused together into one, transforming into a brand new ancient cauldron. It seemed to be an invisible cauldron, yet it also possessed a mysterious and grand color, with strands of mysterious and grand energy hanging down from it, as if explaining the mystery of the birth of all things.

Qin Tian stroked his chin: "This should be enough to withstand my Great Dao Flame!"

The third update is complete. The last update might be very late, so please don't wait up and go to sleep early.

Chapter 142 The Two Elements Dust Array, Taiji Diagram, Exquisite Pagoda, Human Emperor Banner, Little Celestial Venerable (44)

Clusters of firelight ignited on Qin Tian's chest, and the five-colored Qi was transformed by him, moving closer to the fire and evolving into the Five Elements Dao Fire.

"Hoohoo!"

Qin Tian opened his mouth and spat out a stream of five-colored Dao fire, which was brilliant and dazzling, like the light of the Great Dao, and melted the void in an instant.

"Boom!"

Those were no ordinary flames; they were more like symbols of the Great Dao, cluster after cluster, igniting four similar divine marks of purple and gold.

This is a transformation of the five-colored Qi, which incorporates the rules of the acquired heavens and evolves into a flame of the Great Dao.

This fire is extraordinary. Clusters of flames rise and steam, which are the materialization of fragments of the Great Dao. Such Dao fire is perfect for refining Divine Mark Purple Gold, which represents the traces of the Great Dao.

The void of Xuanhuang served as the cauldron, and the myriad paths and five elements were the fuel. As time passed, the four array diagrams gradually merged into one.

The Dao traces on the divine purple-gold mark shone brightly, as if they were alive, constantly twisting and flowing with the energy of the Great Dao.

Qin Tian began to refine the prototype of the Emperor Weapon according to the methods recorded in the Complete Book of Military Secrets.

The four array diagrams emitted a clanging sound, and wisps of Xuanhuang Qi, the primordial Qi of the Xuanhuang Ancient Cauldron, dripped down, staining the divine mark purple gold and covering the purple Dao light with a layer of Xuanhuang.

Most importantly, the arrays residing in the four array diagrams have also been completely merged.

In the hazy immortal light, Dao patterns intertwined, and arrays evolved into Dao light, bursting forth with wisps of energy that shook the universe. It seemed to transform into Dao traces interwoven with heaven and earth, representing the will of heaven and earth, grand and solemn, profound and complex.

Not limited to Yin and Yang, nor bound by the Five Elements, Yin and Yang are in chaos, the Four Symbols and the Five Elements are both nonexistent and existent, as if it were the true and unchanging Great Dao, which is not clear to people. They can only take a corner, piece together its form, and then verify it with Heaven and Earth.

On a single array diagram, one can almost see the changes in all the rules of the world, with everything evolving accordingly, encompassing all the rules of the world and bearing all the changes in the world.

Like... the way to survive in this world!

“Since I have chosen to follow the Supreme Path, then the artifact for proving my Dao must naturally belong to the Supreme Path as well.” Qin Tian looked down at the newly forged array diagram in the cauldron.

"This formation is the supreme formation."

The purple light was magnificent, and the image seemed to be carrying the image of the Great Dao, but it was covered by a dazzling Dao light, making it difficult to see clearly.

Strands of dark yellow energy hung down from the edges of the array, one after another, as if they were about to crush mountains, extremely heavy.

Qin Tian smiled and said, "Or perhaps it could be called the Yin-Yang Dust Array!"

Chaos arises from Yin and Yang, and the Five Elements govern the universe.

To create a vast world from the smallest things, and to embody the principles of existence within the framework of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

A single formation gives rise to a world, a single formation creates a universe; the changes in formations are also the birth and death of worlds.

When the great formation is in operation, it can reverse Yin and Yang and transform the Five Elements. The birth and death of the world are only a thought away. No matter how powerful one's cultivation is, it is impossible to withstand the destruction of the world time and time again.

This aligns perfectly with Qin Tian's Dao.

"If my Great Dao extends further and even establishes a foundation for existence, then this array diagram for proving the Dao may evolve into the Taiji diagram."

Qin Tian held up the Purple Gold Treasure Map, and streams of mysterious yellow energy condensed and did not dissipate, revealing the aura of the beginning of heaven and earth.

"It can transform into a golden bridge to the other shore, evolving from the initial separation of Yin and Yang, forming a small world. Standing above it, it is impervious to all laws, and all evils retreat."

"Reverting to the Tai Chi diagram also has endless uses. It can stabilize Yin and Yang, regulate the universe, and also improve the feng shui of the land."

As Qin Tian contemplated the future, he glanced once more at the newly differentiated Xuanhuang Ancient Cauldron.

Because the Purple Gold Dao Diagram absorbed some of the Primordial Qi of Xuanhuang, this Xuanhuang Ancient Cauldron became somewhat dim.

"Should we refine this Xuanhuang Ancient Cauldron again and transform it into the Xuanhuang Tower of Heaven and Earth?" Qin Tian pondered.

After a moment of silence, Qin Tian shook his head frantically: "No, no, this is our livelihood, how can we melt it down into something else!"

"I'll see if I can obtain the Primordial Qi Source another day." Qin Tian touched the ahoge on his head. Although the Primordial Qi Source is precious, it is not unique. As long as a trace of the source exists, it can continuously generate enough Primordial Qi Source.

Theoretically speaking, given enough time, everyone in the world could have a Xuanhuang Mother Qi Cauldron.

"That stuff is the best material for building the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Pagoda."

"Let's refine another Vajra Bracelet."

Qin Tian smiled and said, "At that time, I can go out and cosplay as Laozi and show off my divine power in front of Emperor Ye, who has just arrived in Beidou. That feeling will be quite good."

Qin Tian's mind raced, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes: "Hmm, right, I also need to forge a Ten Thousand... Human Emperor Banner."

"Once I've dealt with Xu Yuan's lineage, I'll directly infuse their souls into the Human Emperor Banner for my use, letting them experience the joy of Earth's eighteen hells!"

"I am both the Daoist Master and the Abbot. If you offend me, do you want to live a good life?" Qin Tian wanted to forge a Human Emperor Banner for the Xu family to live in, because a family should be together in an orderly manner.

The hatred for the massacre of their entire family led to their immediate execution.

It’s too cheap.

With a blink of an eye, all suffering vanishes.

This did not meet Qin Tian's expectations.

Qin Tian regretted that he had not created a true cycle of reincarnation.

Otherwise, just send them into the cycle of reincarnation, giving them a ten-life cycle of endless suffering.

Unfortunately, reincarnation is not yet possible, so Qin Tian could only create a Human Emperor Banner to carry their souls.

Having deeply experienced the cycle of reincarnation, Qin Tian has some ways to play along with them.

You think you can get away with offending the Taoist priest? Dream on!

Qin Tian glanced at the storage bag and frowned slightly.

"We're out of ingredients!"

A single piece of Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold is not enough to create a protective artifact, and he doesn't possess any Yin Wood, an essential material for crafting the Human Emperor Banner.
