In the game "Covering the Sky," I can create nine kinds of immortal gold.

Chapter 142 Imperial Weapons Suffer Setback

Fearing that it would damage the elixir of immortality, the King Puppet struck the chest.

Amidst the sound of space being cut, the red-haired monster's chest was severed in two, its entire body split in two from the chest down, dismembered on the spot!

Only then did the red-haired monster's soul break free from the dreamlike chaotic space, in less than half a second.

The intense pain caused the red-haired monster to scream loudly, and it even bounced up its upper body in resistance.

One of the king puppets flew up and kicked it away, while another puppet raised its palm into a knife and slashed open its belly, digging out a pill that exuded vigorous life force.

"A celestial elixir! The only miraculous medicine in the world!"

"Charge! Grab it!"

A few rash and powerful figures tried to incite the crowd, but before they could succeed, the red-haired monster, who had been kicked away, began to slaughter the crowd.

Each time it kills someone, it forcibly absorbs the opponent's life force to heal its injuries.

"Stay away from it, don't give it a chance to recover."

The powerful beings had no choice but to attack, unleashing their magical artifacts to bombard the red-haired monster from a distance.

The red-haired monster was now severely injured and his fighting ability was much weaker than before.

At this moment, the King Puppet had already returned to Zhang Taichu's side with the Human World Elixir and was immediately put away.

"Aww~~"

The red-haired monster let out a fierce roar, and its entire body suddenly exploded, turning into a sky full of red smoke.

The powerful figures thought he had self-destructed and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, just a few seconds later, a series of roars came from around them.

Everyone turned to look and discovered that the people from the Source Arts Clan, as well as the geomancers brought in by various forces, had all mutated.

They screamed in agony, clutching their heads, as thick red hair began to grow on the backs of their hands, faces, and even their entire bodies, transforming them into another red-haired monster in the blink of an eye!

"Damn it, this stuff is contagious?!"

Black Emperor roared, carrying Little Nan on his back, and hid behind the Queen Mother of the West. Only the Imperial Weapon could make him feel safe now.

The others were in a similar situation; this bizarre scene before them was completely beyond their expectations and utterly shocking.

"I never imagined that the third-generation ancestor, who had already lost his elixir, could still retain such formidable strength. These newly emerged red-haired monsters, although much weaker than the original, still possess the strength of a beginner-level king, and their numbers are astounding."

Zhang Taichu counted them and found there were more than twenty.

In other words, from just one half-saint, to more than twenty early-stage king-level experts, it's hard to say whether they've become weaker or stronger!

At the same time, new troubles arose.

Several exquisitely crafted little creatures leaped out of the ancient dragon's lair: a little divine phoenix, a little qilin, a little true dragon, a little vermilion bird, and so on.

They are all mythical beasts from mythology. Although they are only a foot in size and look like porcelain dolls, they are very cute. However, what they do is anything but cute.

"ah"

A powerful figure from the Jiuli Dynasty was struck through the chest by the little dragon, his hot heart was ripped out, and then the little dragon bit it to pieces.

The other small creatures also began their slaughter, and in the blink of an eye, five powerful beings were killed. It wasn't until the power of the Chaos Green Lotus erupted and the Nine Li Diagram unfolded that these small monsters were forced back.

"Who dares to disturb the Great Emperor's peaceful cultivation? Are you courting death?"

Several small creatures pulled a small yet magnificent carriage out of the Ancient Dragon's Lair. A humanoid creature sat in the carriage, only about a foot tall, but its aura was enough to make all powerful beings unable to raise their heads.

Even top-tier powerhouses like the Peacock King and the Crimson Dragon Daoist could only rely on the Chaos Green Lotus to avoid retreating.

The humanoid creature flew off the vehicle, its body radiating 108 divine rings. Each ring seemed to be an unparalleled weapon of mass destruction, capable of slaying any powerful immortal at the second level.

"Another demigod! And those little brats, each one of them has the strength of a king. What kind of monsters are these?!"

One of the powerful beings cried out in despair, realizing that what was supposed to be a treasure hunt had turned into a death trap, and he regretted coming.

Many powerful beings did not give up, after all, there were two imperial weapons in the Eternal Dragon's Lair alone, so they still had a chance.

"Nine Heavens Divine Jade! Their bodies are all made of Nine Heavens Divine Jade; they are jade spirits, beings akin to holy spirits!"

Black Emperor recognized him at a glance, and while shocked, he began to have wicked ideas.

"Zhang boy, hurry up and find a way to kill these little monsters, but don't damage their bodies. That's a Nine Heavens Divine Jade that has become sentient, the best material for making holy weapons! Second only to the Nine Great Immortal Golds."

Zhang Taichu rolled his eyes at the Black Emperor.

"You think too highly of me. Each of those lesser holy spirits is no weaker than my puppets, and the leader is no weaker than the third generation patriarch. If it weren't for the many imperial weapons present, they would have slaughtered everyone here long ago."

"You actually have the nerve to make a move on them? You're really bold."

"You're always full of tricks, aren't you? I don't believe you don't have a backup plan!"

Zhang Taichu couldn't help but sigh that although the Black Emperor was unreliable, his judgment of people was quite sharp. He did have a trump card, but it was one that he couldn't control.

The trump card was, of course, the green copper block in his hand and the small blue lotus on it. Zhang Taichu released his divine sense to examine it carefully and found that the consciousness inside the small blue lotus was gradually awakening, which put his mind at ease.

"There's no way to deal with it for now, Queen Mother of the West. We'll have to rely on the Western Emperor Pagoda now."

After saying that, Zhang Taichu used the Origin Heaven Array Pattern to draw power from the Qinling Dragon Vein to power the Western Emperor Tower, allowing it to further recover.

At the same time, the Great Xia Dynasty also revived their Taihuang Sword. As a result, there were four imperial weapons on site: the Chaos Green Lotus, the Nine Li Diagram, the Western Emperor Tower, and the Taihuang Sword.

The terrifying imperial might erupted, instantly intimidating the red-haired monster legion and the Little Divine Jade legion, causing them to temporarily stop and dare not kill indiscriminately.

But they did not back down and continued to confront the crowd.

They even split into two groups, trapping everyone in the middle and creating a pincer movement.

The four major powers, protected by imperial weapons, are relatively calm, but the other powerful figures without imperial weapons are like lambs to the slaughter, sweating profusely and feeling that their lives no longer belong to them.

"Hmph, do you think we're helpless just because we have an imperial weapon? In front of a true emperor, an imperial weapon is nothing more than a slightly more powerful toy."

The humanoid divine jade spirit, set off by 108 divine rings, appeared exceptionally imposing, and its words left everyone astonished and bewildered.

Of course, most of them did not believe that there was a Great Emperor here. After all, the suppression of the Great Dao by the Azure Emperor was still in place, so how could a new Great Emperor possibly appear?

The reason why a small number of people still believe it is because they consider this place a forbidden zone, fearing that a dark sovereign is hidden inside the Eternal Dragon's Lair.

If that's the case, then it makes sense to say that a great emperor is sleeping here.

Just as everyone hesitated, a chilling snort that shook the very soul suddenly rang out from the Eternal Dragon's Lair.

The moment the humming sound was heard, the divine light on all the imperial weapons, whether it was the Chaos Green Lotus, the Nine Li Diagram, the Western Emperor Tower, or the Supreme Emperor Sword, suddenly dimmed, and their imperial might was suppressed.

The spirit within the imperial weapon fell into a deep sleep, and its revival failed.

This surprised everyone, especially the Holy Lord and the Emperor Lord of the four major powers.

Imperial weapons are the embodiment of the faith of their respective forces, and for tens of thousands of years, except when facing the Great Emperor, imperial weapons have been invincible and have swept all the way.

Take the Jiang family's Hengyu Furnace for example. It has achieved terrifying feats, such as burning the land for thousands of miles in the snowfields where Wanlong Nest is located, as well as in the desert.

This shows how terrifying the Imperial Weapon was, but now, with just a cold snort, the Imperial Weapon was silenced, directly shattering the myth of its invincibility.

"Haha, see? The Imperial Weapon is nothing but a toy. Why don't you hurry up and hand it over, or you might save your lives."

After saying that, the humanoid jade spirit waved its hand, and all the lesser jade spirits under its command instantly transformed into killing gods and rushed towards the crowd.

Meanwhile, the red-haired monster also attacked simultaneously, launching a pincer movement that unleashed a massacre.

A powerful female being was besieged by two divine jade spirits, but only lasted two rounds before being cut in half at the waist by the little divine phoenix.

Her beautiful face was filled with regret and resentment as she fell dead in a pool of blood.

The Peacock King and the powerful members of the Jiang family gathered together and tried their best to activate the Chaos Green Lotus. However, the power of that cold snort was still there. Although the Chaos Green Lotus began to revive under the infusion of the magic power of many powerful members, the speed was slow. The imperial might it unleashed could only protect itself and could not attack the enemy at all.

Therefore, they could only protect their own people and watch helplessly as the others were killed by the Divine Jade Spirit.

The situation was similar at the Immortal Transformation Pool. The red-haired monster army charged into the crowd, each strike taking a life.

Even a powerful immortal of the second level could only last two or three moves before being killed in the end.

"Let's die together!"

A powerful and resolute figure cracked open, releasing surging energy from the fissures. He then grabbed a red-haired monster and self-destructed.

"Boom!"

The power of the explosion was comparable to that of a hydrogen bomb. If it were outside, the self-destruction of a powerful being in the second level of the game would be enough to easily destroy a large city.

However, at the Immortal Transformation Pool, he couldn't even shatter a single rock. What was most devastating was that after the aftershocks of the explosion dissipated, the red-haired monster he had been holding was only slightly burned off; it was completely unharmed, let alone perished together with him.

The self-destruction that risked their lives only resulted in the loss of a few hairs, a result that left everyone in despair.

"Zhang, haven't you prepared your trump card yet?"

The Black Emperor took out the Soul-Shocking Bell and activated it with all his might, but he could only repel the red-haired monster and could not kill it at all.

If we really want to kill it, we'll probably exhaust its magic power. If we lose our magic power in a place like this, we can only wait to die.

"This is completely beyond my control, but it'll be soon, just hang in there!"

Although the Western Emperor Tower was also affected, with the help of Zhang Taichu and Ye Fan, two great source masters, the power of the Qinling Dragon Vein was mobilized as if it were free, and it has recovered some of its imperial might.

With a "whoosh," the West Emperor Pagoda suddenly grew to a height of 100 meters, covering the entire mountaintop.

The Emperor's might erupted, repelling all the red-haired monsters and saving everyone on the mountaintop.

All the survivors were extremely grateful, whether sincerely or not. In short, everyone now owed Yaochi a favor, which they would have to repay in the future. Yaochi's debts were not so easy to renege on!

The crisis on the mountain peak has been temporarily averted, but a massacre is still unfolding at the Eternal Dragon's Lair.

Just as everyone was waiting to die in despair, Xiao Qinglian finally regained consciousness.

In the dazzling blue light, a majestic figure appeared in mid-air. Everyone who saw him instinctively felt fear and reverence, and many even knelt down to pay their respects.

Yan Ruyu, in particular, felt the call of her bloodline power—

"Ancestor!!!"
