Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 625: The Great Emperor is Immortal and the Darkness Continues (I)

Zhuangzi once said: As long as sages live, thieves will never stop.

In fact, in Li Zhi's eyes, this sentence also applies to the world of Shrouding the World.

As long as the emperor is alive, the darkness will never end.

The world of Shrouding the Sky on the coffee table was placed in front of Li Zhi and Ye Fan like a chess piece.

The billions of creatures in the bubble world are like the characters in the painting. When their mission is completed, they will be easily wiped out by the people outside the painting.

At this moment, they are no exception.

When Ye Fan showed the results of his evolution in front of Li Zhi, the bubbles burst and billions of lives disappeared in an instant.

Even that world seemed to have never existed.

Li Zhi and Ye Fan outside the bubble world did not feel any sadness because of the disappearance of the world.

In fact, after that bubble-like world burst in front of them, they didn't even have any emotional fluctuations.

It is not as dramatic as the fluctuations caused by the conversation between each other.

"Li Zhi, how do you think the Age of Covering the Sky should evolve so that the Forbidden Zone Supreme will not launch a dark turmoil?"

Ye Fan has also realized that although he has allowed that world to maintain peace and tranquility for seventy or eighty thousand years, after Heaven leaves, the world will return to its original state. Even because of the lack of elixirs of immortality and strange places with rare immortal substances, it will become a normal thing for the supreme beings who do not want to die to consume the life essence of all spirits regularly in order to prolong their life.

"Then let me dominate his life and see if we can completely solve the problems caused by the dark turmoil in the end." Li Zhi pointed to the remaining bubble world on the coffee table.

"Then you should replace my image with yours. Otherwise it will look a bit weird." Ye Fan on the opposite side twitched his eyes a few times. He didn't want to see Li Zhi use his reflection to try some weird things.

"Of course I won't use your identity." Li Zhi nodded and said.

Then, he pointed a finger, and the plot in the bubble world changed.

After the gathering in Mingyue City on the Sea, Ye Fan and his group were reported for illegal assembly and group fornication. After spending two days in police station, they lost the motivation to climb Mount Tai.

Seeing this scene, Ye Fan’s defense was instantly broken.

"Li Zhi, what do you mean?" Ye Fan asked immediately.

"At a class reunion, do you just eat and drink, and pretend to be cool and slap each other in the face? According to my understanding of that era, both men and women should be extremely open. Shouldn't a class reunion be filled with kissing and hugging?" Li Zhi said calmly.

Then, Ye Fan saw Li Zhi, wearing a set of archaeological equipment, appear on the top of Mount Tai in the bubble world.

"Did you call the police?" Seeing this, Ye Fan seemed to have discovered the truth.

"Yes. From this moment on, you will see a world that will follow your old path and leave you with no way out." Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Why do I feel like I have experienced this kind of thing before?" Ye Fan suddenly asked in confusion when he heard this.

Afterwards, the long river of time appeared in his eyes, and he saw that in addition to the main channel of the long river of time, there were many tributaries.

Most tributaries dry up halfway through their flow.

There are also some tributaries that eventually merge into the main river without splashing any waves.

"There are so many people tampering with my timeline?" Ye Fan said with a little surprise.

Before he got rid of the patient's influence, he had no idea that there were other timelines outside of his story.

Now, after truly achieving the only Tao fruit that was on par with the patient, he became aware of those split timelines.

The only Tao fruit that can travel freely between existence and non-existence possesses incredible abilities.

The patient may have seen too many timelines about himself, and then became sick due to a bad mood.

"How dare you bully me like this." Suddenly Ye Fan became angry, and the terrifying murderous intent rushed into the tributaries of the long river of time, instantly wiping out many tributaries.

Faintly, Li Zhi saw the truth behind Ye Fan's rage.

Someone cheated on him, stole all his women, and even had children with them.

Some people also took the ruthless emperor into their harem.

There was even someone who traveled through time and space to become Ye Fan's biological father, giving him an extra father out of thin air.

There are countless strange stories of all kinds, no wonder Ye Fan got angry and even erased those timelines.

Suddenly, Ye Fan unexpectedly saw a timeline with a similar direction to the main vein of the River of Time, which could actually flow to infinity along with the River of Time.

However, when he looked carefully at the specific contents, he found that he, who possessed the only Tao Fruit, could not see through the pictures inside.

It made him realize that there must have been a person with the same level of Taoism as him born in that timeline.

That's why I can't see clearly what's going on inside.

However, when he wanted to remember the general direction of the long river of time, he found that the timeline suddenly disappeared.

It was just like when the three Heavenly Emperors joined forces to explore the patient’s past.

The only things they see are what the patient wants them to see, and they can no longer see anything else.

Those who transcend ancient history will not leave any trace in ancient history.

Just as Ye Fan frowned slightly, he suddenly looked at Li Zhi who was sitting across the coffee table, and then he started laughing.

It seems that I understand the truth of that timeline.

He couldn't imagine any reason other than Li Zhi.

I originally thought that there was no trace of Li Zhi in the main channel of the River of Time because he had also transcended ancient history and erased all traces of his existence.

But I never thought that it was because he was an outsider.

There was no trace of him in the main channel of the long river of time.

The timeline he opened up has already completed its mission, and the useful information has been merged into the main vein of the long river of time.

It was as if he was an indigenous creature.

No wonder, Li Zhi, who lived in seclusion on Earth, opened an antique jewelry store, but it did not arouse his suspicion.

He also has a special liking for the novel "The Great Ruler".

Originally, Ye Fan thought that this was just Li Zhi’s hobby, and he turned his past into a novel.

Now it seems that is not the case.

Afterwards, Ye Fan's attention was attracted by the story in the world of Bubble Covering the Sky.

He didn't feel sorry that he didn't catch up with the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin.

After all, the bubble-covered world he had evolved before had already shown that even if he didn't get on the Nine Dragons Coffin and leave the earth, he could eventually become an emperor who defied the heavens.

After seeing Li Zhi taking his place and a group of tourists being taken away by the Nine Dragon Coffin, Ye Fan was very curious about how they would get out of the ancient forbidden area.

He and his classmates were able to safely walk out of the ancient forbidden area because the ruthless emperor treated him as a substitute for his brother.

Just like he treated Kou Xiaoxiao as a substitute for An Miaoyi.

Because of this relationship, the ruthless emperor took good care of him. Otherwise, with what he did, he would have died countless times.

Those monks who wanted to climb the holy mountain to pick the holy fruit and the old emperor of the Guhua Dynasty were bloody cases.

The dozens of people who were sucked into the coffin by the Nine Dragons did not know each other.

So they are wary of each other.

Before arriving at the ancient planet Mars, everything was fine.

But after they set foot on the ancient planet Mars and confirmed that it was not on Earth, they immediately turned against each other.

In order to survive the cruel journey ahead, some people began to snatch food and drinking water from the weak. Because everyone was a mountain climbing tourist, they all carried some drinking water and food with them.

Before they were sure whether they could leave, a murder occurred.

When everyone discovered the ruins of the Great Leiyin Temple, Li Zhi simply dug out the Bodhi seeds and then returned to the coffin.

Even so, when those who had snatched the divine weapon returned to the Five-Colored Altar, they did not let him go.

To this end, Li Zhi only used the Luoyang shovel twice and sent three people to see the King of Hell.

When the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin set off again, the original group of more than thirty people was reduced to only ten.

And they were divided into three small groups.

Li Zhi was alone, and the other two groups consisted of four and five people respectively.

And they all had magical instruments snatched from the Great Leiyin Temple.

On the way, Li Zhi did not approach the small coffin in the coffin, nor did he try to listen to the hundreds of words of scriptures.

Instead, he held the Bodhi seed in his hand and was always on guard against sneak attacks from the great holy body deity.

After all, the only thing that can scare the gods is the Bodhi seed after the elixir of immortality.

Other magical instruments are simply unable to cause fear in the divine mind of a great holy being.

Because only the Bodhi seed contains the Buddha's divine consciousness.

In the original novel, the divine consciousness of the quasi-emperor in the Bodhi seed was the key that prevented the Great Saint Body from daring to take over Ye Fan's body.

In this way, everyone was on guard against each other all the way and descended into the ancient forbidden area.

Then, something interesting happened.

Except for Li Zhi, the other nine people died in the restricted area for various reasons.

Some people even accidentally fell into the ancient abyss while trying to pick the holy fruit.

The reason why Li Zhi was able to walk out of the restricted area safely and even took the holy fruit without any harm was because he was carrying Ye Fan's hair on him.

To this end, he even bribed Teacher Tony and collected Ye Fan's hair several months in advance.

After seeing this scene, Ye Fan, who was sitting in front of the coffee table, smiled and said, "You really thought it through."

“Only a foolish person would think that it has nothing to do with you and be able to leave the ancient forbidden area alive.” Li Zhi responded.

When Ye Fan thought about the mentality of the ruthless emperor towards all living beings, it was just as Li Zhi said.

If it weren't for him, how could his classmates have left the ancient forbidden area alive, or even got opportunities after entering it a second time.

Even Li Xiaoman and Zhang Ziling had the chance to become slaves.

You must know that before this, the monks who were qualified to become wild slaves had to be unparalleled masters.

Seeing Li Zhi slipping out of the ancient restricted area like a dog thief in the world covered by bubbles, Ye Fan wanted to laugh.

I thought I would be able to see Li Zhi turning into an old man after leaving the ancient restricted area, but I never thought that Li Zhi was already prepared.

He actually drank a few bottles of holy spring water before stepping out of the ancient restricted area.

Then Li Zhi successfully opened up the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

Seeing Weiwei coming riding on the rainbow light, Ye Fan was curious about how Li Zhi would explain it, but then he saw Li Zhi go into the ancient forest outside the restricted area without looking back.

But Weiwei was just slightly curious and didn't chase after him to check on him.

Instead, his eyes shone with immortal light and looked into the depths of the ancient forbidden area, and then a Taoist god walked out.

Afterwards, the Taoist deity, carrying a relic of the Great Emperor tainted with the aura of the Green Emperor, entered the ancient forbidden area, and successfully picked three holy fruits and brought out some holy spring water.

Seeing this scene, Ye Fan sighed: "All of us underestimated Weiwei back then. The power of the Fairy Eyes has allowed her to obtain fortunes that are incomparable to those of ordinary geniuses."

Lingxu Cave Heaven was built on the ruins of the Qing Emperor’s Demon Capital.

With the magical power of the Fairy Eye, the relics of the Green Emperor lost in the ruins might have been found by her long ago.

Even if it is not an imperial weapon, but merely an item once used by the Green Emperor, once it is contaminated with the aura of the great emperor, it will become extraordinary and almost immortal.

Li Zhi nodded and said, "Weiwei should be the most talented woman in the world, perhaps even more talented than Saint Yaoguang."

"I'm very curious. What are you planning to do after coming out of the ancient forbidden area and hiding in the forest? The monsters there are not weaklings. Also, aren't you going to those blessed places to obtain the methods of cultivation? In this bubble world, you didn't get the cultivation scriptures on Earth." Ye Fan asked curiously.

Li Zhi said, "Keep reading. There is a way for humans and mice. To cultivate scriptures, you don't necessarily have to join those blessed places to obtain them."

"Then I'm even more curious." Ye Fan said.

Afterwards, Ye Fan saw Li Zhi in the Bubble World, actually starting to survive in the wilderness.

Then he found a scripture of the human race in the monster's cave.

"Is this okay?" Ye Fan said.

"How could there be no dead cultivators outside the Life Forbidden Zone? According to common sense, ordinary cultivators should be able to get all the cultivation resources they want outside the zone." Li Zhi said.

The most dangerous places are often those with the richest resources.

This is especially true at the edge of the life forbidden zone.

In the following days, Li Zhi not only found numerous cultivation scriptures on the dead, but also found a lot of flesh and blood rich in life essence left over by monsters.

"Hey, you are practicing breathing techniques?" Ye Fan suddenly discovered that although Li Zhi had picked up a lot of cultivation resources outside the ancient forbidden area, he was not practicing the human body secret realm method, but a breathing guidance technique similar to the stealing breathing method.

Li Zhi smiled and said, "It's a family heirloom."

Ye Fan instantly understood Li Zhi’s father’s past, and then was speechless for a while.

The descendants of tomb robbers indeed possessed a lot of strange and bizarre things.

He actually possesses a secret method called "Stealing Heaven's Secrets" written by an unknown person. If one practices it to the extreme, one can even steal the great Dao of the universe.

Then, Ye Fan said: "It seems that your father is not an ordinary person. The secret method of stealing the secrets of heaven is so magical. You can also achieve enlightenment through it."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "We ordinary people have to have some adventures, otherwise how can we catch up with you, the protagonists of destiny."
