Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 444: Discussion in Immortal Mountain
“Young man Changshou, if you really want to interfere in this matter, this is the grudge between my Immortal Mountain and the Holy Body.”

As Li Zhi's true body descended upon Beidou, the Supreme Beings in the Immortal Mountain finally responded. However, the Supreme Beings' response was somewhat strange, as if they did not want to conflict with Li Zhi.

In fact, what Li Zhi didn’t know was how much shock these forbidden zone supremes had been given when he summoned the dharma body of Emperor Huang Tian in the mythological battlefield.

As a result, Huang Tadu fully revived and released the true power of the immortal weapon, making them all feel the threat of death.

"Haha, I thought you wanted to see my disciple's bloodline. It turns out you just want to make things difficult for the Holy Body." Li Zhi chuckled, as if he didn't feel the supreme rage emanating from the Immortal Mountain.

"My dear Changshou, Immortal Mountain does not want to be your enemy. As for the accidental injury to your disciple, we are willing to resolve it with a fruit of the Wansui Divine Medicine."

At this moment, the voice of another supreme being was heard from the Immortal Mountain, and then a fruit of the Black Tortoise Immortal Medicine sealed in the Divine Source flew directly out from the Immortal Mountain.

"In this case, the previous matter is settled."

Li Zhi did not reject the kindness from Immortal Mountain. He waved his hand and put away the fruit of Xuanwu Divine Medicine. Then he asked: "I wonder if the three Taoist friends are willing to discuss Taoism with me."

The Supreme Being in the Immortal Mountain became extremely silent, as if he was discussing whether to agree to Li Zhi's request to discuss the Dao.

At this time, Li Zhi also shifted his gaze from the Immortal Mountain and looked at other life forbidden areas in the Eastern Wilderness.

The Divine Eye of Life and Death burst out with extreme vision, directly penetrating the imperial forbidden barriers outside the major life forbidden areas. Huge blocks of immortal source emitting the breath of the original life of the universe came into Li Zhi's eyes.

The true bodies of the supreme emperors are dormant in the immortal source. Under Li Zhi's observation of the divine eyes of life and death, they are like dying people whose vitality has reached the limit of the universe, but whose fire of life is abnormally dim.

Moreover, among them, some were awake, while some were still in the deepest sleep, but in Li Zhi's eyes, no one's vitality could maintain balance.

It seemed that the supreme being of the forbidden area had noticed Li Zhi's peeping and directly activated the restriction that concealed the breath in the forbidden area, preventing Li Zhi from continuing to spy on them.

Seeing the reactions of those forbidden zone supreme masters, Li Zhi withdrew his gaze.

But just with just a few glances, Li Zhi was able to determine the number of supreme beings in the major life forbidden areas, and the total number was more than twenty.

If we add in the number of supreme emperors who died when Beidou's path to immortality was opened hundreds of years ago, the number of supremes lurking in the forbidden zone of life during this period is simply terrifying.

But even so, this is probably not the heyday of the Forbidden Zone of Life.

If we add the supreme beings who died of natural causes, there are also those supreme beings who were killed by Emperor Henren, Emperor Xukong, Emperor Hengyu, Emperor Wushi and others over the past hundreds of thousands of years.

Since ancient times, the number of supreme beings who choose to lie dormant in the forbidden zone of life is simply outrageous.

No wonder there are rumors in the world that the life and death of most ancient emperors remain a mystery.

Everyone chooses to fake their own death to escape, so isn't their life and death a mystery?

Just the twenty or so existing Imperial Supremes, the years they have influenced probably add up to a million years of history.

No wonder some people can become immortals in this life.

"It takes a million years to become an immortal."

This sentence has been circulating in the world since ancient times, and most people just treat it as nonsense, but now Li Zhi feels that perhaps everyone has misunderstood the true meaning of this sentence.

Everyone knows that there are many corpses on the road of the emperor.

But are there so few corpses on the road to becoming an immortal?
Perhaps if someone wants to become an immortal, he or she must also succeed by stepping on the corpses of many great emperors, just like becoming an emperor.

For example, before Emperor Hengyu became enlightened, he once stood in the starry sky, faced the challenge of twelve quasi-emperors, and killed them all, and finally became the emperor.

So if you want to become an immortal, you may have to stand on the road to immortality and kill at least twenty emperors to accumulate enough good fortune to become an immortal.

If a supreme emperor can kill twenty emperors of the same level, wouldn't it be equivalent to taking away nearly a million years of good fortune accumulated in them?

Perhaps this is the true meaning behind "one million years of effort to become an immortal."

The chapter of blood and bones is never as simple as killing. The heaven and earth allow the existence of the life forbidden zone, perhaps just to fulfill the person who has the opportunity to become an immortal.

Perhaps the true meaning is to use the accumulation of millions of years of heaven and earth to perfect a person.

The origin of heaven and earth is limited, which prevents the two emperors from meeting each other. Only the forbidden zone of life can allow them to meet in the future.

At this time, Li Zhi began to understand why the Immortal Emperor had to bathe in the blood of the emperors to transform.

Perhaps it was not just a glimpse into the original power of the Dao in the essence and blood of those powerful Emperor Dao masters, but it was more likely that every time he killed an Emperor Dao supreme being, he would be able to accumulate more of the fortune of becoming an immortal.

After all, for a cultivator of the Immortal Emperor's level, the power of the laws in the bodies of other supreme emperors has probably long been ineffective on him.

Due to the huge gap in their life levels, even if he were to bathe in the blood of the emperors, it would not have any transformation effect.

It's like a saint wants to use ordinary sources to complete the transformation of life, which is simply a fantasy.

However, if we look at the Immortal Emperor's behavior from the perspective of accumulating good fortune from heaven and earth, perhaps we can understand it.

Aren’t these supreme emperors lurking in the forbidden zone of life treasure chests waiting to be opened? They are all the destined sons of an era.

As long as they are alive, the destiny they carry cannot be completely returned to heaven and earth.

Who in the world today can kill them all? With the massive fortune of the universe that they have accumulated, once they embark on the path to becoming immortals, it will be difficult for them not to become immortals in the end.

Perhaps, this can also explain why Ye Fan was able to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world extremely smoothly. During the transformation process from life to life, he did not encounter any accidents like the ruthless emperor.

Li Zhi has a deep understanding of Ye Fan's comprehension. His comprehension does not have any essential gap with that of the world's peerless geniuses.

He is definitely not an existence like the Ruthless Emperor, whose talent is unrivaled in the past, present and future.

He is not like Emperor Huang Tian, ​​who was born with the Tao and was born for the Tao.

It is not like Chu Feng who believes in "I will pave the way for future generations".

Ye Fan was able to stand out and eventually reach the level of “a leaf covering the sky” because of his unreasonable and heaven-defying fighting power, as well as the supreme fortune accumulated from the bloody battles in the eight wildernesses to wipe out the darkness.

In the ancient times, becoming an immortal did not require accumulating millions of years of cultivation.

Only to become an Immortal King would one need to forge the Dao for a million years.

In the ancient times of immortals, if a cultivator was blessed with a million years of good fortune, it would be enough for him to reach the realm of Immortal King smoothly.

After putting away the distracting thoughts in his mind, Li Zhi continued to say to the Supreme in the Immortal Mountain: "Since fellow Taoists have no objection to my visiting you, then I will not be polite. Since the three little guys are valued by fellow Taoists, I will take them in to introduce themselves to the sect so that they can visit more often in the future."

Then, a road of divine light was born from under Li Zhi's feet, leading directly from outside the Beidou region to the Immortal Mountain.

Jin Ming, Ye Tong and Yang Xi, who followed Li Zhi, all showed excitement. Not everyone has the opportunity to enter the forbidden zone of life so openly.

Back then, when Ye Fan had achieved perfect holy body and traveled through the forbidden zone of life, he was so majestic.

As Ye Fan's disciples, Ye Tong and Yang Xi naturally wanted to recreate the glorious scene of their master in the past.

Now that they are following Li Zhi, they can be considered to have realized their dream ahead of time. Although it is not as impressive as if they came in on their own, it is also exciting enough.

Then, Li Zhi led the three people into the Immortal Mountain without any taboos.

Stepping onto the unique black peak of the Immortal Mountain, Ye Tong and Yang Xi felt their heartbeats quicken a lot.

Not long ago, the Supreme Being in the Immortal Mountain had personally tried to capture them.

But less than a day had passed, and they walked into the Immortal Mountain alive and well.

Moreover, those forbidden area supreme beings dared not even say a harsh word. This feeling was even better than eating ginseng fruit.

Following Li Zhi, we entered from the outskirts of the Immortal Mountain. The once daunting restricted area seemed to have lost its daunting deterrent power.

The four of them even stopped from time to time along the way to comment on the scenery in the Immortal Mountain and study the various terrains that could be called Jedi.

He was relaxed and comfortable, as if he was strolling in his own back garden, and did not take the Supreme in the Immortal Mountain seriously at all.

Yang Xi, Ye Tong, and Jin Ming asked questions like curious babies, and Li Zhi explained them one by one.

"Young man, what do you want to do?"

Finally, a supreme being could no longer bear to see Li Zhi and his friends' leisurely attitude of strolling in the Life Forbidden Zone as if it were their own back garden.

"Of course I have come here to discuss Taoism with you fellow Taoists. With such a beautiful scenery and the ancient tea tree of Wudao as our company, wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't discuss it?" At this time, Li Zhi and the other three had already walked to the ancient tea tree of Wudao.

Li Zhixiang was like meeting an old friend, and he reached out and patted the branches of the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree.

Then, the ancient tea tree felt something and voluntarily shed some mature tea leaves and gave them to Li Zhi, as if it was entertaining an old friend.

"I've received so much tea from you, but I have no way to repay you, so I'll give you this bottle of elixir to taste." Li Zhi smiled when he saw this.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Then, he flipped his hand and grabbed a stream of life elixir from his life fountain, which contained the original laws of his great way.

As soon as the life-giving elixir appeared, it emitted a life energy that was even richer than the elixir source. The vigorous vitality even affected the growth of the surrounding plants.

The Ancient Tea Tree of Enlightenment, after sensing the immortal liquid of life which was completely different from the ordinary divine liquid of the Great Emperor's Life Spring, immediately emitted an emotion of desire.

Li Zhi poured the original life essence that could revive the dead into the roots of the ancient tea tree of enlightenment.

The ancient tea tree of enlightenment immediately absorbed the original immortal liquid, and then exuded a sense of joy.

The branches began to shake, causing the remaining leaves to mature and fall off instantly.

Ye Tong, Yang Xi, and Jin Ming were quick to collect the fallen leaves immediately.

Then, they saw a branch of the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree glowing, and quickly grew nine new leaves that had a completely different scent from the previous leaves.

Each new leaf is engraved with a pattern similar to the imperial pattern, which looks quite mysterious.

Ye Tong, Yang Xi, and Jin Ming, who were already quasi-emperors, immediately noticed that the aura of the origin of the Tao emanating from the nine leaves was significantly different from the aura of the origin of the Tao emanating from the tea leaves in their hands.

At the same time, a ball of chaotic mist floated over from the central fairyland surrounded by tall sacred mountains in the Immortal Mountain.

It stopped in front of Li Zhi and transformed into a road of divine light with swirling chaotic energy, as if inviting him to enter the central fairyland for a chat.

Seeing this, Li Zhi said to Jin Ming and the others, "The three of you can go play around outside the Immortal Mountain for now."

Afterwards, Li Zhi stepped onto the avenue of divine light and entered the central fairyland within the Immortal Mountain.

When the three of them saw this, they all showed envy and fantasized about when they would also be able to receive such courtesy from the Supreme of the Forbidden Zone.

However, they also knew that with their current level of cultivation, they could not be on par with the Supreme Being in the Immortal Mountain and thus enjoy Li Zhi's courtesy.

Then they began to observe the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree. This old tree was more human-like than they had imagined.

Looking at the nine lonely leaves on the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree that contained the true meaning of Li Zhidao, Yang Xi asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Senior Li, why do you use your own Life Spring Immortal Liquid to water this old tree? Isn't this obviously aiding the enemy?"

After thinking for a moment, Ye Tong said uncertainly: "I heard from Uncle Hei Huang that Taoist Priest Li once entered the Immortal Mountain alone and practiced under this ancient tea tree for a long time. Maybe there is a reason behind it that we don't know."

Then, they continued to comprehend the nine leaves that contained the true meaning of Li Zhi's Dao.

The more they comprehended, the more they could sense the difference between it and the nine emperor runes condensed by ordinary emperors.

Those runes seemed to be unaffected by the myriad laws of heaven and earth, and there was no resonance or fusion with them.

However, it also makes people feel that it contains a kind of ultimate artistic conception that transcends the limits of heaven and earth, just like the Emperor's text of the Great Dao.

"Sister Jin Ming, what kind of Taoism does Taoist Priest Li practice? Why does he give me the feeling of being so different from a normal emperor?" After contemplating for a while, Ye Tong asked curiously.

"Senior Li left his own great Dao's origin laws here. Isn't he afraid that his great Dao will be discovered to have flaws by those supreme masters in the forbidden area?" Yang Xi also asked.

"I can't really explain what kind of Taoism my master practices. But my master once said that if the forbidden zone supreme beings are willing to learn his Taoism, he can teach them through the Qing Nang. It will even be a happy thing. I'm just afraid that the forbidden zone supreme beings will stick to the old ways and won't be willing to learn from my master." Jin Ming said.

"Why don't I understand what you're saying?" Yang Xi scratched his head. He couldn't understand why Li Zhi was willing to let his opponent observe his Dao directly.

This was consistent with their understanding. The reason why Li Zhi brought them to the Immortal Mountain was to slap the face and intimidate the Supreme in the forbidden area, and even to find out the true strength of the Immortal Mountain. Then, he and his master Ye Fan would join forces to kill the Supreme in the Immortal Mountain, thus wiping out the Immortal Mountain in one fell swoop and ending this forbidden area of ​​life that had repeatedly launched dark turmoil.

"I only know that the path that Master is taking is the path of the highest order, not the path of an ordinary Great Emperor. Therefore, other Great Emperors are needed to verify the universality of that path. If only Master can succeed, it cannot be considered a success. If other Great Emperors can also succeed, then it can be considered as paving a new path for all living beings." After thinking about it, Jin Ming continued to explain to the two.

Unfortunately, the two still didn't understand.

In fact, if the two of them understood the value of Li Zhi's existence, they would not have such doubts.

To wipe out the darkness and end the blood and chaos in the world, that was the destiny of their master Ye Fan's life, but not Li Zhi's destiny.

"I have a great wish in my heart, to wipe out the darkness, and hope that there will be no more blood and chaos in the world!"

"As the Emperor of Heaven, I shall kill all enemies in the world!"

When they hear Ye Fan say these words one day, they will understand everything.

"Who is the grand sacrifice for? Where are the anomalies? Who wrote the mottled painting?"

When they hear these words one day in the future, perhaps they will understand why Li Zhi’s attitude towards the Forbidden Zone of Life is so strange.

However, all of the above are too far away for them.

Now, with Li Zhi entering the central fairyland in the Immortal Mountain, no trace of the supreme aura leaked out. They just happened to imitate the ancient emperor and practice enlightenment unscrupulously in this Immortal Mountain and under this ancient tea tree.

With their current level of cultivation, other than the Supreme Emperor in the restricted area who takes action personally, no other creatures will pose any threat to them at all.

Moreover, there are the protective runes left by Li Zhi on them, so even if they step on the imperial restrictions, they will not suffer fatal damage.

As Li Zhi, Jin Ming, Ye Tong and Yang Xi swaggered into the Immortal Mountain, there was no more movement in the Immortal Mountain, which shocked countless people.

When someone used the all-seeing Dharma Eye to observe the interior of the Immortal Mountain and saw Ye Tong and the other three leisurely meditating under the ancient tea tree, they were so shocked that they were speechless.

"How can you tolerate this? The Supreme of the Forbidden Zone is no more than this." After seeing this scene, many people suddenly had such strange thoughts in their minds.

Of course, this does not include the people in Heaven. As the force fighting on the front lines against the Forbidden Zone of Life, they are well aware of the dangers of the Forbidden Zone of Life.

At this time, the Holy Prince, the human demon Dongfang Taiyi, the old madman, Xiaosong and other powerful quasi-emperors of heaven have all come to Ye Fan. They are all ready to attack the Immortal Mountain at any time to rescue Ye Tong and Yang Xi.

"Master Li, it seems that you are much more powerful than we imagined." Li Heishui in the crowd suddenly spoke up.

"He is indeed much stronger than we imagined. It seems that he has achieved enlightenment in the same way as Ye Fan. Otherwise, the supreme being in the restricted area would not have this reaction." Black Emperor also spoke.

“Doesn’t that mean that we have a chance to flatten the Immortal Mountain this time?” Dongfang Ye also spoke up.

Only Ye Fan stared at the Immortal Mountain with a serious expression, not daring to relax for a moment.

Only those who have personally fought with those Imperial Supremes can truly understand how powerful they are. Now he has not looked down on the strength of those Forbidden Zone Supremes.
