He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

When Xiaoyu mentioned Yi Qingwu, Zhou Qing couldn't help but think of Yi Qingwu's graceful figure under the moon that night.

He even suspected that the founder of the Moon Palace might be a celestial maiden who attained enlightenment through dance, because her dance was so ethereal, a beauty that transcended the mundane world.

"We'll find out when we pass by the Moon Palace. They're one of the few acquaintances we have in the Purple Star Region. There are many famous places in Luzhou, and many places worth exploring," Zhou Qing said.

Luzhou is home to many famous forces, such as Guanghan Palace, Ice Demon Hall, and Taiyin Divine Sect, most of which are biased towards Yin and cold attributes.

The Taiyin Emperor left the most traces in Luzhou. For example, Tianyuan City, where the Taiyin Emperor is said to have lived, is still one of the most famous training grounds in the Ziwei Star Region.

For example, some say that the Taiyin Human Emperor once appeared on the ice plains further north and left behind a piece of his enlightenment, which can be called a peerless treasure.

Of course, legends are just legends. He didn't know if the Taiyin Emperor had attained enlightenment on the icy plains of the North, but he did know that there was a Heavenly Desire Stone there, which was the most important treasure in the Human Desire Sect's teachings and was extremely rare.

Moreover, there is the Taiqing Sacred Realm Eight Scenery Palace left by Lao Tzu, a small world created by a quasi-emperor, hidden in the void of Luzhou, waiting for a destined person.

He remembered the Sky-Gazing Platform in the Big Dipper constellation. According to the elders, it was the place where the Great Emperor Wushi gazed at the star field. It was mysterious and unpredictable, and perhaps it could guide people to become immortals.

Later, he went there and sat for a while. As it turns out, many legends become more and more exaggerated over time, but the scenery...

It truly lives up to its reputation and is absolutely unique.

"If you come to Ziwei and don't take a look at the Falling Star River in Luzhou, you don't deserve to say you've been to Ziwei," Zhou Qing said calmly.

Dao Qingling and Xiaoyu both showed surprise, unable to believe that Zhou Qing would have such a high opinion of a place.

"When you get there, you'll understand what true artistry and natural wonder are. There's no place more beautiful than Luo Xinghe in the Ziwei Star Region," Zhou Qing said calmly.

How beautiful is the Milky Way under the falling stars? That's a matter of opinion.

However, in the Ziwei Starfield, Luoxinghe is undoubtedly one of the most famous places, not only for its stunning scenery but also for its mysterious aura, which adds a sense of historical beauty to it.

Legend has it that a true dragon egg is gestating within the Falling Star River, which will be born after countless eons. During this process, all living beings on the Falling Star River will be restricted, and even ancient trees that have endured hundreds of eons will be unable to transform into human form.

After exchanging words at the city gate, the three of them immediately set off.

China is a place full of mystery, with countless legends, ancient emperors, extraterrestrial gods, and the ancient human race, all of which have buried too many earth-shattering events.

The Divine Continent Dynasty once ruled over this vast continent, so it naturally had a deep understanding of this place.

According to Dao Qingling, some legends seem like myths, but they can actually be investigated in depth and are related to the Heavenly Court headquarters that was said to be permanently stationed in the Ziwei Star Region in the ancient era.

It is said that the Great Emperor of Shenzhou once found relics from the mythical era here and obtained things related to the ancient Heavenly Court, which is why he rose to power in the future.

In the Mingling Mountains of Shenzhou, there is a temple called Changsheng Temple, whose lineage is said to be incredibly ancient, possibly related to the ancient Heavenly Court of the mythological era.

These messages were top secrets within the Divine Continent Dynasty, but for Zhou Qing, he was naturally no outsider, as they shared the same roots, so Dao Qingling told him directly.

The group walked across the land of Shenzhou, sometimes passing through dimensional gates, without any sense of urgency to reach Luzhou. Instead, they seemed like ethereal immortals descended to earth to experience the essence of the mortal world.

Zhou Qing's cultivation level was steadily improving, regardless of whether he was moving fast or slow, so he was naturally not in a hurry.

Now that Dao Qingling has reached this level, the next hurdle is to sever her Dao. At this point, she needs to experience the vicissitudes of life and view the world with a mindset that is both worldly and detached from it in order to seize the opportunity to sever her Dao.

Along their journey, they left their footprints on many famous historical sites in China, and their presence was seen in every famous, mythical city.

They didn't come away empty-handed; they actually discovered several ruins, some left by kings, some by ancient sages, and one even appeared to be the cultivation ground of a quasi-emperor.

I've obtained some cultivation scriptures, cultivation insights, magical artifacts, and celestial materials, scattered here and there, but they've accumulated to a considerable amount.

Like the Phoenix Stone, which can ward off all evil and increase cultivation speed by up to 20%, it is a treasure that eventually ended up in Dao Qingling's hands.

For example, Enlightenment Tea is truly rare to find in the Purple Star Region, unlike the Northern Dipper where it's readily available.

Every year, thirty or forty pieces can float out of the Undying Mountain. In the Purple Star Region, such things can only be found in ancient ruins.

They also came across a pool, its surface shimmering with crimson light, divine rays soaring into the sky, and a blood-like liquid churning within it, containing immense vitality.

"What is this? Could it be the blood of the Undying Phoenix?" Xiaoyu exclaimed.

Just as the group was examining the pool, two more people approached from another direction and met them.

"Brother, that looks like the blood of the Undying Divine Phoenix!" Yin Tianzhi's breathing quickened as soon as he saw the pool, his heart filled with excitement.

Yin Tiande's gaze was solemn. He looked at the three figures beside the pool, his whole body tense, his internal magic power surging, ready to escape at any moment.

Yes, he was running away, because he immediately recognized who the three people were. One of the girls was a maidservant of the Princess of Shenzhou, and the other woman shrouded in celestial radiance was undoubtedly the Princess of Shenzhou.

The key was another man, who, simply by standing there, seemed to be the center of heaven and earth, the master of all things, with all the laws of nature revolving around him.

An aura of absolute dominance surged forth, seemingly capable of piercing through everything in the world, with all things bowing at his feet. This made Yin Tiande feel as if he had encountered an unparalleled enemy, and all his attention was focused on him.

Yin Tiande learned the man's identity after that day.

This is the person who, upon arriving in Ziwei, snatched the title of peerless genius from him. The battle in the North Sea shocked the entire ancient star, and his invincible image was deeply imprinted in the minds of all the major sects.

This person, with his nine extraordinary phenomena of severing the Dao, silenced the entire ancient star and was directly etched into ancient history, where he will be passed down through the ages.

Now, everyone sees him as the future enlightened one, while Yin Tiande is just a genius with some fame. No one would compare them.

At this moment, Yin Tianzhi also recognized Zhou Qing and his group, and immediately became envious. He still remembered the humiliation he suffered that day, and he was like a bitter pill to swallow, frantically cultivating every day, thinking that one day he could take revenge.

Zhou Qing also saw the two brothers, and a thought struck him. Countless wisdom flowed through his mind, and he came up with a way to give Dao Qingling an effective training experience.

So he said, "You also want this pool, don't you? I'll give you a chance: each of you can fight them one-on-one. If you can win a match, what harm is there in giving you the pool?"

He pointed to Yin Tianzhi and Xiaoyu, then to Yin Tiande and Dao Qingling, and the group immediately understood what he meant.

Yin Tianzhi was eager to try out this arrangement, Xiaoyu was very disdainful, Dao Qingling was as calm as water, while Yin Tiande had complicated thoughts, his mind filled with countless guesses.

However, the two brothers eventually agreed, each with their own confidence, especially Yin Tiande, who did not believe he would lose to anyone other than the Demon Lord.

With a roar, Yin Tianzhi charged forward, shaking the earth as his body contained immense power.

When he made his move, his palm seemed to transform into a celestial blade, slashing horizontally, radiating divine light, the blade's light seemingly becoming eternal.

But Xiaoyu still had that disdainful expression. She stretched out her jade-like hand and made a sweeping motion in the air, causing Yin Tianzhi's palm to suddenly turn in a different direction, so abruptly that he didn't even have time to react.

puff!

Yin Tianzhi coughed up blood, his clothes stained red with blood. He stared blankly at his hand, which was deeply embedded in his chest, as if he were committing suicide.

"Brother!" Yin Tiande exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly helping Yin Tianzhi back and finding that he was not seriously injured and that the injury was not fatal, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, his heart sank. That kind of secret technique was really too difficult to guard against. If this maid could do it, then there was no reason why the princess of Shenzhou could not do it either, and her cultivation would only be more profound.

Even though he was extremely confident in himself, a shadow of gloom rose in his heart, and he had a bad feeling about the battle to come.

Chapter 215 First Impressions of Luzhou: Very Poor

Yin Tiande was young, only in his early twenties, with an ordinary appearance, but he had the demeanor and majesty of a grandmaster.

His blue robes fluttered in the wind as he helped his younger brother back. He immediately took out a jade bottle and poured out a few drops of medicine.

After taking it, Yin Tianzhi's complexion instantly became rosy, and wisps of blood energy rose from his limbs and bones, while the wound on his chest slowly healed.

After doing all this, Yin Tiande came out, took a deep breath, and let the essence of the heavens fall into his mouth. His green robes swelled and his magic power surged.

Then, he exhaled again, forming a white dragon-like essence that circulated around his body, like the roar of a tiger and the cry of a dragon, with rolling thunder, before finally returning to his body.

His aura suddenly intensified, his mind became clear, and his whole being was like a furnace, radiating brilliant light. A golden divine halo suddenly appeared around his body.

His eyes suddenly flashed with two sharp, intimidating beams of light.

“I know that the princess’s cultivation level must be amazing. Although I am a rogue cultivator, I have experienced many fierce battles and conspiracies along the way. The dangers of the world that I have experienced are probably something that the princess has never experienced before.”

Yin Tiande was surrounded by auspicious symbols, exuding a calm and composed demeanor, truly possessing the aura of a supreme master. Although his words were polite, they also revealed his sharp and shrewd nature.

Even Zhou Qing had to admit that this change in temperament was truly remarkable, a peerless genius!

What he said was not wrong. The difference between the disciples of powerful forces and independent cultivators lies here. For Zhou Qing and Dao Qingling, they could cultivate in seclusion within their families when they were young. At most, they would go out to gain experience if they couldn't stay idle.

For rogue cultivators like Yin Tiande, every source they obtain is hard-won, and every spiritual herb is the result of fighting against others. They have experienced countless battles and have only reached this point by stepping on countless corpses.

"If you are confident, you only need to make a move. There's no need for these petty tricks to try and influence my mind with these words." Dao Qingling's voice was calm, surrounded by an ethereal aura that was hazy and indistinct.

As she took a step, golden lotuses descended from the void, supporting her at her feet, allowing her to walk in mid-air.

Yin Tiande's scheme failed, but he wasn't too discouraged.

Although those words were spoken with a purpose, they also reflected his true thoughts. In his view, only someone like him could go further on the path to becoming an emperor, and if it came to a real battle, he would not lose to the Princess of Shenzhou.

"I'd like to learn from you!"

Yin Tiande roared and threw a punch, producing a terrifying booming sound, like the war drums of the ancient Heavenly Court shaking the entire world.

This punch looks very ordinary and simple, but it contains countless variations and has the ability to turn the rotten into the miraculous.

This move is executed with effortless precision, alternating between feints and real attacks, and a constant flow of yin and yang. Most people can't even see how it's thrown before it hits their face.

"boom!"

When Dao Qingling made his move, his palm strike seemed capable of creating the universe and all things. It contained an incredible and majestic divine power, and an aura of creation spread throughout the area.

"This is..." Zhou Qing looked surprised.

In a fleeting moment, within her...

Surrounded by, a giant tree appeared, rooted in the void, with patches of immortal herbs growing lush and verdant, and immortal medicines blooming, brilliant and crystal clear, exuding a rich fragrance.

"This is the power of creation!" Zhou Qing's eyes instantly emitted two beams of divine light, like two divine lamps, his gaze shining brightly.

Not long ago, during the discussion on the Dao, she had not yet grasped this profound truth, but now it has been revealed.

Presumably, it was the experience he had gained during this period, along with reading many insights and scriptures on cultivation, that led him to some understanding, which is why Zhou Qing only noticed him today when he made his move.

boom!

The next moment, a blinding light burst forth between them, and they suddenly seemed to have arrived in an endless star field, with millions of stars flashing by all around them.

Then a figure retreated backward, taking several steps in succession, each step collapsing a nearby mountain.

After a difficult struggle, the figure finally stopped, looked up, and stared in disbelief.

"How is this possible?" Yin Tiande murmured.

His chest heaved violently, and the divine halo around him dimmed, with cracks spreading. This palm strike had almost pierced through his entire defense.

He quickly calmed down and struck again, unleashing a palm strike that resembled a dragon soaring through the heavens and roaming the four seas, with a real dragon bursting forth from his palm.

This is the True Dragon Palm, one of the few complete imperial techniques in an incomplete imperial scripture, possessing a divine power capable of uprooting mountains and rivers and overturning seas.

With its scales gleaming and its body powerful, a dragon charged forward like a mountain, its roar scattering the clouds in all directions.

Dao Qingling's divine robes fluttered, as if a celestial maiden had descended to earth. With a single palm strike, she unleashed boundless and endless creative power.

This power could create everything; the entire world, the sun, moon, stars, earth, mountains, and rivers seemed to be contained within this palm, its power reaching an unbelievable level.
