Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 572 Three Great Sword Techniques
“Is this the fairyland?”

The Immortal-Slaying Gourd, which was shrouded in chaotic energy, easily passed through a large crack in the void and escaped into the fairyland.

The Tuoba siblings, the ancient immortal prodigy, as well as Yu Tianlong and other major powerful figures in the Divine Court, all expressed their feelings immediately after coming out of the Immortal-Slaying Gourd.

The fairyland is the paradise of immortals that countless people dream of, and it is known as the hometown of immortals.

According to rumors, the fairyland is filled with immortal air, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, sacred medicines are everywhere, the natural resources are abundant, and the spiritual energy concentration is far higher than that of the outside world.

But the scene that everyone saw was not what was recorded in the classics.

Above the earth, the mountains and rivers were shattered, evil spirits rose to the sky, blood flowed, vital energy became thin, and it was a doomsday scene.

“Isn’t the fairyland a sacred and peaceful place? Why does it look no different from the battlefields of the nine heavens and ten earths?” Yu Tianlong, a genius of the ancient post-immortal era who was full of fantasies about the fairyland, looked at the bleeding ground in front of him with a puzzled look on his face.

"Maybe it's because this place is a battlefield. After all, the Great Reckoning is getting more and more intense, and no matter how beautiful the mountains and rivers are, they can't withstand the ravages of a war. Look at the ruins of the fairy city in the distance, it should have been a fairyland pass, and the blood-stained forest, it should have been the place where the sacred medicine was nurtured." Tuoba Yaoyang said, pointing to the ruins in the distance.

Everyone then carefully observed the land before them. It was indeed a sacred land, but now the land veins had been destroyed, all living things had been slaughtered, and even the ancestral veins of the earth that bred the essence of immortal energy had been drained away.

“It seems that the attack suffered by the fairyland is no weaker than the attack encountered by our nine heavens and ten earths, and may even be stronger.” Tuoba Yuer also sighed.

Looking around, the vastness of this devastated land is comparable to the area of ​​the nine heavens and ten earths.

But such a vast territory was still destroyed. One can imagine how fierce the battle that once took place here was.

All they saw was the ruined earth, but what the mini dragon saw was the scene of the Immortal King falling and blood raining from the sky.

A group of Immortal Kings from the Boundary Sea killed the Immortal King guarding this territory in a very short time.

Then the kings of the fairyland joined forces to counterattack, which eventually shattered the mountains and rivers, turned the sun and moon into black light, and destroyed the entire universe. Only then were the strong men from the sea of ​​​​boundary repelled.

The Great Reckoning has progressed to the point where even the powerful Immortal Kings are unable to protect themselves.

With the collapse of the great pass, the fairyland and the outside world are no longer completely isolated.

Fortunately, the foundation of the fairyland is deep enough, and the destruction of a piece of the universe is not a serious blow to the fairyland.

The vast fairyland is actually a huge world formed by the fusion of one ancient universe after another. It is so huge and vast that it is unimaginable.

Without staying too long in that ruined borderland, the mini dragon led everyone forward, crossing one universe after another, heading towards the deepest part of the fairyland where few people have ever been.

They encountered many battles along the way, but they had no intention of stopping to join the battle.

If one practices the Shinto system but fails to become a ancestor god, one will not be able to freely travel between different worlds without affecting combat power.

The same is true for the practice of ancient immortal methods.

Fortunately, the fairyland and the original ancient world have the same origin, so it does not have much impact on those who practice the ancient fairyland in the Divine Court. On the contrary, because they have entered the fairyland where the great way of heaven and earth is extremely perfect, their practice will usher in a short period of explosive growth.

When everyone was at the outskirts of a vast expanse of barren land, they finally stopped.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this desolate place with no people and no vitality.

In the deepest part of the fairyland, there is such a dilapidated place, which doesn’t look like a place for becoming immortal at all.

From a distance, some areas are covered in silver, like white snow, without any other color. But if you look closely, you will find that the snow there is actually piles of bones. It is a sea of ​​bones, filled with the aura of death.

There are also some areas with lakes one after another, but the water is scarlet and has a pungent smell of blood. That is a sea of ​​blood formed by the blood of ancient creatures. Countless years have passed, but the blood has not dried up and still exudes a terrifying power.

Of course, there are also some extremely sacred mountains that stand quietly in this area, like one supreme and powerful being after another with natural pride.

"Teacher, are we going to settle down here?" Tuoba Yu'er asked with confusion on her face, looking at the mountains and rivers in front of her.

"Yes, this is where you will gain experience in the future." The mini dragon nodded.

The reason why they chose to settle down here is because this place hides many great secrets of the fairyland and also gave birth to many creations.

Although the fairyland is vast, all the prosperous places have long been occupied by other fairy kings, and those places are not necessarily more suitable for the people in the Divine Court than this place.

Not only is there the Immortal King's spirit that escaped from the dark cage, but it also hides the secret of becoming a quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Not everyone can knock the Jieying Ancient Temple down from its dark cage.

Even those in the dark cage may not know the ultimate secret buried in this ancient underground.

When dark turmoil breaks out in the future, this place will become a window for dark creatures to land. By then, the people in the Divine Court will also have the opportunity to stand on the front line against darkness.

The cruelty of the future war will be far beyond their imagination.

Today's great reckoning can only be regarded as an appetizer when the dark creatures launch a massive attack.

If they cannot adapt to the cruel battlefield environment in advance, it will not help much for their future growth.

Afterwards, everyone in the Divine Court began to build a city there as the foundation of the Divine Court.

At the same time, they were also building an altar to get in touch with Li Zhi.

Tuoba Yuer led the team to go out and kill immortal beasts at the true immortal level as sacrifices to worship Li Zhi.

When everything was ready, everyone in the Divine Court began a grand sacrifice.

The mysterious sacrificial sound resounded through heaven and earth, and even brought about the arrival of the power of heavenly punishment, which seemed to destroy the souls being sacrificed.

However, above the altar, a mysterious power of law escaped, directly swallowing up the divine thunder of heavenly punishment that could seriously injure the Immortal King, and melted it into the most original thunder liquid.

Then, on the altar, a horrifying consciousness crossed the boundaries of time and space, descended into the thunder liquid, and quickly took shape.

In an instant, a supreme aura far surpassing that of the Immortal King emanated from that figure, and terrifying pressure spread in all directions, as if announcing the return of the king.

It even attracted the attention of many giants in the fairyland.

However, that aura was located in the deepest part of the fairyland, so those fairy king giants had no intention of going to explore it.

There was once a great Immortal King who tried to explore the truth of this area and eventually died here.

Since then, the area has become a restricted area.

As Li Zhi regained consciousness, a terrifying creature walked out of a mysterious ancient temple deep in the territory surrounded by the blood lake.

This creature has four heads and eight arms, and his entire body is shrouded in powerful spiritual light. It seems that the power of his spiritual power far exceeds that of his physical body.

"There is a smell similar to that of a dark cage." A snake-like head on the monster spoke.

"Destroy it and never let the creatures on the other side come." Another head covered with scales spoke.

"Wait a little longer, this might not be what we are prepared for." Another bird-like head spoke up to stop them.

This strange creature has four independent consciousnesses in its four heads. If this were to be made known, it would probably cause an uproar.

But this is the current situation here. A group of creatures that have escaped from the dark cage live here.

"Is this the deepest part of the fairyland?" Standing on the tall altar, Li Zhi looked around and immediately understood the situation nearby.

Back then, he wanted to travel here, and even wanted to obtain the lost ancient immortal methods from those fusion monsters, so as to deduce the ancient immortal methods to the extreme. Unfortunately, due to the influence of the great causal power, he triggered a taboo and was exiled to the boundary sea, and was unable to complete his plan.

"Greetings, Grandmaster." After seeing Li Zhi, everyone in the Divine Court bowed down to him.

"Everyone, get up." Li Zhi waved his hand to help those people up, and then told them to do what they should do.

"Boss, it's your turn to warn those soul monsters." Mini Dragon said to Li Zhi.

The reason why they took so much trouble to bring Li Zhi's consciousness back was not to let him come back to enjoy the scenery, but to let him take action to warn those soul-fused monsters so that they would not dare to kill the people in the Divine Court.

Otherwise, they would be courting death if they settled down under the noses of these mentally ill fusion monsters.

Then Li Zhi took the Immortal-Slaying Gourd and walked towards the Jieying Ancient Temple billions of miles away.

"He was coming towards us."

When the strange creature with four heads and eight arms saw Li Zhi rushing towards them, it immediately became alert.

"I'm Li Zhi, nice to meet you fellow Taoists." Li Zhi greeted them with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist, why are you here?" the monster with four heads and eight arms asked directly.

"I want to learn from you fellow Taoists about the truth about the ancient immortal methods, as well as those ancient secret techniques that have been lost in the outside world." Li Zhi did not hide anything and asked directly.

"There's nothing you want here. You've come to the wrong place." The monster with four heads and eight arms refused directly.

“Since you were chosen by the Dark Cage back then, you all must have excellent talents. How could you not have those lost ancient methods?” Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Who are you?" Seeing that Li Zhi seemed to know their origins, the monster with four heads and eight arms suddenly had a bad premonition.

"You fellow Taoists were all unrivaled geniuses in your time. Are you willing to be pawns of darkness? I have not come here empty-handed this time. I can help you fellow Taoists to be free and truly sever the connection between you and the darkness, so that the darkness will no longer be able to influence your thoughts." Li Zhi said sincerely.

"You are courting death with sweet words!"

The monster with four heads and eight arms attacked Li Zhi in an instant as if it was enraged.

"Kunpeng Claw, Yin Demon Hand, World-Destroying Fist, Immortal Buddha Palm, they are really amazing."

Li Zhi was not worried at all about the attack of the four-headed, eight-armed fusion monster. Although each attack possessed the strength of an ultimate immortal king, it was not enough in front of Li Zhi.

Although Li Zhi did not return in his true form, he sent back the Dao Fruit of the Sixth Secret Realm.

The methods he can use are not comparable to those of ordinary Immortal Kings.

Moreover, he also had the Immortal-Slaying Gourd in his hand, which almost surpassed the category of Immortal King's weapon, so he was not afraid of the attacks of these fusion monsters.

Li Zhi had no intention of fighting them head-on with his physical body, but simply summoned the Immortal-Slaying Gourd.

Then an irresistible suction force was released from the mouth of the gourd, absorbing all their attacks and dissolving them completely in an instant.

At the same time, a special aura that could kill immortals and destroy Taoism was released from the gourd's mouth, instantly locking onto the four-headed, eight-armed fusion monster.

"What kind of magic weapon is this? It's not the Hunyuan Gourd." The monster with four heads and eight arms was very knowledgeable. They thought that the gourd in Li Zhi's hand was the legendary Hunyuan Gourd. But now that they were locked by that aura, they felt that the origin of their own immortal way was trembling, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.

"The Immortal Slaying Gourd." Li Zhi responded calmly, and then said: "The fusion of the four Taoists' souls must be very painful, and they must also be worried about the influence of darkness. Today, I will sever the connection between you and let you regain your freedom."

"Please turn around, darling, and kill the immortal! Cut off the path!"

As Li Zhi chanted a mysterious spell, a ball of nine-colored fairy light suddenly spurted out from the mouth of the Immortal-Slaying Gourd and wrapped up the fusion monster.

"Ah, ah, chirp, woo..."

A strange cry came out of the monsters' mouths, and bursts of black mist escaped from their bodies. At the same time, mysterious black chains of laws emerged from their origins, and were then cut off by a flying knife containing nine-colored fairy light.

Soon, a surge of pure spiritual energy emanated from them.

He even unconsciously let out a low moan of pleasure.

When the nine-colored fairy light disappeared, the four-headed, eight-armed monster disappeared, and four fairy king spirits with pure origins appeared in their place.

The three men and one woman were all famous and powerful Immortal Kings in the Immortal Realm at that time.

Then, they directly used the pure fairy energy to condense a body.

Although their new bodies are far inferior to their original bodies, their pure bodies are not polluted, and it will only take some time for them to recover their previous bodies.

"Thank you for your help, senior." The four Immortal Kings bowed to Li Zhi to express their gratitude.

"You don't have to be polite, fellow Taoists." Li Zhi said.

But at this moment, a terrifying sword energy suddenly burst out from the Jieying Ancient Temple and went towards Li Zhi to kill him.

The power of the sword energy is unimaginable, it is simply destroying the world, as if it can kill all the fairies and demons in the world and destroy all living things.

"Senior, be careful." The four Immortal Kings who regained their freedom immediately shouted to Li Zhi.

Unfortunately, the power of that sword energy was too terrifying. It was truly invincible. It could kill gods and Buddhas. Wherever it passed, there was no enemy.

"Please transform, baby!"

Li Zhi's reaction was also quick. He immediately infused a magical power emitting nine-colored fairy light into the Immortal-Slaying Gourd. Then the Immortal-Slaying Gourd suddenly burst out with a chaotic fairy light, and at the same time turned into a nine-colored broadsword that appeared in Li Zhi's hand.

"cut!"

The road that looked ferocious and terrifying instantly slashed out a world-destroying blade of light.

The terrifying sword energy was dispersed in an instant, and at the same time, the blade's light slashed towards the Jieying Ancient Temple in the distance with unstoppable force.

"Ow!"

Inside the Jieying Ancient Temple, there was a burst of angry roaring sounds all of a sudden. It sounded like the roar of a real dragon, or the cry of a golden crow. The terrifying aura seemed to contain the shouts of many immortal kings.

Finally, it turned into an ancient shield, blocking the remaining sword light.

"The butcher of the people! What is your relationship with the butcher?"

Then, a shout tinged with fear erupted from within the Jieying Ancient Temple.

“The Grass Sword Technique, the Calming Rebellion Technique, and the Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique. What good luck I have, I actually have all three of the world’s most popular sword techniques in one.” Li Zhi did not respond to the shouts from the Jieying Ancient Temple. Instead, he watched with interest as the supreme sword energy dissipated.
