Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 429: Receiving the Emperor's Arms with Bare Hands

Crossing the edge of the universe and spanning countless galaxies, Li Zhi continued to move forward between reality and illusion.

A few days later, after passing through a chaotic area, he finally arrived at the star field where the Emperor's Son battlefield was located.

The so-called battlefield of the Emperor's Son is a huge island suspended in the depths of the starry sea. It looks like a chaotic fairyland left over from the creation of the world, exuding a overwhelming breath.

The area is not smaller than the ancient life star at all.

Moreover, the island looks like half a body and is extremely strange, as if the body left behind by a powerful person of the Heavenly Venerable or Great Emperor level after his death has merged with a vast amount of chaotic energy to form a continent.

A strong evil aura permeates the giant island, which can corrode the body of a cultivator and dissolve his soul. It is extremely dangerous.

It feels like I have come to a desperate place.

If an ordinary great sage lived here for a long time, he would be destroyed by the red evil spirits and eventually turned into a ball of pus and blood.

Only those with outstanding talents and extraordinary bloodlines can stay in such a place for a long time.

However, those evil spirits did not pose any danger to Li Zhi.

After landing on the giant island, Li Zhi looked at the battlefield chosen for the emperor's sons to fight with great interest.

The mutated imperial evil spirit that permeates the air is a very good thing for tempering oneself.

Unfortunately, this thing is only useful to the Great Sage.

After traveling hundreds of thousands of miles, Li Zhi arrived at a city where some monks were temporarily stationed.

The city is half-ruined, but it can provide a relatively safe place for the combatants to stay and also allow them to exchange what they have.

Moreover, in this vast battlefield, there is more than one ruined city.

There are even caves left behind by ancient powerful men.

After Li Zhi arrived in the ancient city, he immediately attracted a lot of attention.

However, after Li Zhi disguised himself, no one recognized him at all.

Li Zhi took the initiative to find a great sage who looked quite powerful and asked, "Daoyou, have you ever seen any trace of the Dragon Girl?"

"Who are you?" The man was shining with lightning, like a lord of thunder.

"I am nameless. I wonder if you can tell me about the Dragon Girl. Is she in this battlefield, fighting against other ancient princes?" Li Zhi asked again.

"Are you an outsider?" The Great Sage, who seemed to be wearing a layer of armor condensed by the power of thunder, stared at Li Zhi as if he was looking at his prey.

"Are you a local?" Li Zhi asked back.

"You don't seem afraid of me?" the man said again.

"Why should I be afraid of you?" Li Zhi said with a smile.

"My name is Thunder God." The man seemed to be waiting for Li Zhi to show shock.

"Thor? Never heard of you. But you don't have divinity, nor do you have a deity position, and you don't practice Shintoism. You should not be the kind of god that I understand." Li Zhi said lightly.

"I am the master of thunder and punishment in heaven and earth. Am I not worthy of being called the God of Thunder?" For some reason, the God of Thunder seemed to have an impulse in his heart and wanted Li Zhi to acknowledge his identity as the God of Thunder.

"Could Brother Lei summon the thunder calamity from heaven and earth? Could he condense his own natal thunder pool?" Li Zhi stared curiously at the restricted area boy who practiced the Great Way of Thunder.

After chatting for a long time, Li Zhi finally remembered who the Thunder God in front of him was. Wasn't he the ancient prince from Shenxu who Ye Fan and others would meet in the future?

"Are you making fun of me, Taoist?" Lei Shen couldn't see through Li Zhi. It seemed that Li Zhi in front of him was just an ordinary mortal, but also like a real emperor. He gave people an extremely strange feeling, so he didn't dare to test Li Zhi easily.

"Brother Daoist Lei, what are you talking about? I just want to know from you the news about the Dragon Girl. Why do you have to keep someone at a distance?" Li Zhi continued.

"What is your relationship with Dragon Girl?" Thor frowned and asked.

"It doesn't matter. It's just that she has something I want." Li Zhi said.

"Then let's fight. If you can defeat me, I will tell you everything you want to know." Thunder God suddenly said to Li Zhi.

It seems that he wants to determine Li Zhi's origins through fighting.

This time, the ancient emperors' own children were born in all the major life forbidden zones. Together with the ancient princes who were originally left in the outside world, the number of ancient princes in this life is beyond imagination.

Almost every ancient prince can be matched with an opponent of equal strength.

As the confrontation between them entered a tense state, everyone was making the final accumulation.

He wants to reach the quasi-emperor level with a strong and invincible attitude after killing his opponent.

"Are you sure you want to fight with me?" Li Zhi looked at the Thunder God in front of him with a strange expression.

"What? Are you scared? If you dare to set foot on this ancient battlefield, you should be prepared to die in battle." Lei Shen used several secret methods, but still could not sense Li Zhi's specific level, which made him feel a little uneasy.

"Friend Lei, why do you want to make things difficult for yourself?" After Li Zhi finished speaking, he placed a hand on the shoulder of the Thunder God.

No matter how Thor resisted, it was of no avail. It was as if he had become a mortal after Li Zhi put his arm around his shoulder.

"You?" A trace of horror flashed across Thor's eyes, and then he looked at Li Zhi with an ugly expression.

"Can I tell you now?" Li Zhi said with a smile on his face.

Lei Shen reluctantly told Li Zhi all the information about the ancient princes in the Emperor's Prince Battlefield.

"Thank you, see you again."

After getting the news he wanted, Li Zhi first thanked the Thunder God, and then left with satisfaction.

After watching Li Zhi disappear in the boundless sea of ​​evil spirit outside the city, Lei Shen also turned around and left the ruined ancient city where he was temporarily resting.

"Fellow Daoist Lei Shen, where are you going? Why do you look unwell?" Not long after he walked out, Lei Shen was blocked by an ancient prince.

"How dare you mock me." Thor felt that the other party was mocking him, so he started fighting with him.

Li Zhi, who was already tens of thousands of miles away, could not help but look back after sensing the huge battle fluctuations coming from behind. He secretly thought in his heart: "These ancient princes are not weak in Taoism. They are all excellent whetstones."

Unfortunately, he was already a quasi-emperor, and none of these ancient princes could be his opponent, nor could any of them serve as his whetstone.

If it were before he became the quasi-emperor, he wouldn't mind fighting with these ancient princes.

After practicing till now, Li Zhi gradually understood a truth: it was useless to win titles like "invincible in the same level" or "invincible in the world".

When you meet a cultivator of a higher level, you have to kneel.

The more advanced your cultivation reaches, the less room there is for fighting across levels.

The gap between each cultivator at the same level will become smaller.

Especially for those who can prove their ability to become emperors, unless there is someone who is clearly half a level higher than them, the difference in their peak combat power is not much.

What really makes the difference between the ancient emperors or great kings is the combat effectiveness they can still display even when they are old and frail.

Li Zhi soon arrived at the temporary cave opened by the Dragon Girl on this huge island.

It was a Zulong Mountain where the dragon energy had dissipated.

Before the dragon energy dissipated, there should have been a dragon vein lurking within the mountain range that was no weaker than the ancient dragon of the Qinling Mountains in the Big Dipper.

In addition to the breath of the dragon girl, Li Zhi also sensed the breath of an old dragon, which seemed to be protecting the dragon girl and also seemed to have come to seek an opportunity to break through to the quasi-emperor level.

"The Dragon Girl is here, come out and fight."

Li Zhi did not show up, but shouted at the cave on Longshan Mountain that was transformed from a dragon cave.

"Ow!"

The dragon girl did not respond, but the old dragon let out a roar and then turned into a huge purple dragon and flew towards Li Zhi.

"Boom!" A jade-like palm suddenly stretched out from the evil spirit that could corrode the spiritual consciousness, and then slapped the old dragon back with a palm.

"Princess, hurry up. There is a quasi-emperor coming and we cannot defeat him."

Although Lao Long was not injured, he felt an irresistible aura from the slap given by Li Zhi.

It was as if the other party wanted to kill him and didn't need a second slap.

"Ow!"

A moment later, a dragon roar was heard from the dragon cave, and then a real dragon with brilliant purple light flew out.

The terrifying laws of the Dao, accompanied by the sound of bells, attacked Li Zhi.

"Ten thousand dragon bells!"

Li Zhi saw through the true form of the purple dragon at a glance, but he had no intention of avoiding it.

With just one punch, countless runes flashed in his body, and then gathered on his fist, and he fought hard with the purple real dragon transformed by Wanlongling.

"boom!"

The huge shock wave directly dispersed the evil spirit within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles, and at the same time caused the entire battlefield of the Emperor's Son to shake.

When the old dragon saw Li Zhi resisting the Wanlong Nest's supreme imperial weapon, the Wanlong Bell, with his bare hands and knocking it away, he was so shocked that he lost his voice.

Although the Wanlong Bell has not revived, even with a peak Great Sage activating it, not everyone is capable of catching it with bare hands.

That is the ultimate imperial weapon.

"who are you?"

After Wan Longling returned to the Dragon Girl, the Dragon Girl who came out of the Dragon Cave began to ask.

Just now, she sensed the aura of the ancient emperor from Li Zhi's fist.

"You are finally willing to come out."

Li Zhi was shrouded in a layer of faint fairy air, and the Dragon Girl could not see his true form at all.

"Go back. Your journey to become an emperor in this life ends here. If you continue on, you will only end up killing yourself and become a stepping stone for others on their road to becoming emperor." Li Zhi said.

"Who are you and why are you here to destroy my spiritual heart?" The dragon girl frowned and asked in a bad tone.

"Someone who doesn't want to see you die on the road to becoming emperor." Li Zhi said.

"You are the quasi-emperor of the human race, but you come to block the path of my dragon princess. Senior, you are bullying the weak by doing this." The old dragon seemed to realize that Li Zhi had no intention of killing him, and spoke.

After these words were spoken, Li Zhi fell silent on the spot.

What reason does he have to stop Longnv from pursuing Dilu?

To attain enlightenment and become an emperor is not only her own hope, but also the expectation of Emperor Wanlong for her.

What reason does she have to give up?

After a moment, Li Zhi said to the Dragon Girl, "If you want to continue to compete on the road to becoming the Emperor, then give the dragon egg to me. If you give it to me, I will turn around and leave immediately, and will never interfere with your competition on the road to becoming the Emperor."

"Who are you?" When the dragon girl heard Li Zhi mention the dragon egg, her face suddenly changed.

Even within the dragon clan, not many people knew the true origin of the dragon egg. Although the life inside the dragon egg had not yet been born, its bloodline talent seemed to have surpassed the bloodline passed down by the Ten Thousand Dragon Emperors.

Moreover, during the gestation process, it can autonomously absorb and exhale the innate chaotic essence to strengthen its own life source.

To this end, with the help of Wan Longling, the Dragon Girl opened up a small world in the chaos and drew in a huge amount of chaotic essence to nourish the dragon egg.

According to the calculations of the elders of the Ten Thousand Dragons Clan, the dragon egg would have to be nurtured in the chaotic essence for at least 100,000 years before it could fully develop.

By that time, they won’t know how strong the life that has been conceived will be.

However, what is certain is that the little life nurtured in that dragon egg is almost the real hope for their Ten Thousand Dragon Clan to dominate the world again in the future.

Now, Li Zhi came to ask for the dragon egg, which really touched the reverse scale of the Ten Thousand Dragons Clan.

At the same time, it also angered the Dragon Girl, and the evil spirit on her body rose violently, condensing into a real evil dragon behind her.

"You coward, no matter where you come from, I will kill you today."

The dragon girl sprayed a mouthful of blood directly at Wanlongling, which then revived Wanlongling's imperial weapon god. The terrifying aura of the extreme filled the entire battlefield of the emperor's son.

Many people turned their heads to look in the direction where the Dragon Girl was.

Their fundamental purpose of coming here to fight is to practice, not to kill.

Although many ancient princes carry imperial weapons for protection, no ancient prince would use the power of imperial weapons to kill his opponent when fighting with other ancient princes.

That was an extremely shameful act, and it also deviated from the original intention of their coming here to fight.

Now, the Dragon Girl has completely revived the Wanlongling, which has aroused the curiosity of many people. Who is he targeting that allowed the Dragon Girl to completely revive the imperial soldier?

"Well done."

When Li Zhi saw the fully revived Wanlongling, he did not show any fear. Instead, he shouted with a little excitement.

Then his body began to grow rapidly, and in an instant he became a terrifying giant fifty thousand feet tall.

The overwhelming power of qi and blood condensed into a real dragon of blood on the giant body.

The Dao runes that looked like starlight flashed in every cell of his body, while releasing the power of countless Dao laws.

At the same time, more than ten kinds of auras of ancient emperors emerged from Li Zhi.

Then they all gathered in his fist.

The crystal-clear fist seemed to have turned into a magic weapon formed by thousands of runes.

Driven by the terrifying power of qi and blood, he attacked the fully revived Wanlongling.

"boom!"

A super loud bang shook the entire star field.

Li Zhi crashed heavily to the ground like a high-speed train hitting a mountain.

A huge hole that was transparent from top to bottom was smashed into the solid and immortal ground of the giant island.

After the attack, Wanlongling flew backwards into the galaxy.

"As expected of an imperial soldier, it almost shattered my martial arts body."

Just when everyone thought that Li Zhi had been wiped out, Li Zhi's voice appeared again between heaven and earth.

"What? That guy fought against Wan Long Ling with his bare hands, but he didn't die?"

"The aura that person just exuded is that of the fifth level of Quasi-Emperor. How could such a powerful human cultivator still exist in the world?"

"Who is that person?"

For a moment, exclamations were heard from all over the battlefield of the Emperor's Sons.

At the same time, all the ancient princes in the battlefield became extremely quiet.

It seemed that Li Zhi's performance just now exceeded their comprehension, making them feel infinite pressure for the upcoming battle for the throne.

It was as if they were climbing a mountain and suddenly a divine mountain appeared on their backs, requiring them to carry the weight and move forward.

As for Li Zhi, after taking a direct attack from the Jidao Emperor's soldier, although he did not die, he was not feeling well and was now recovering from his injuries.
