Chapter 146 The Secret of the Forbidden God

In the battle at the Qinling Immortal Pool, Yaochi, the Jiang family, and the demon race were the biggest winners. They not only obtained the immortal pills of the mortal world, but also the Dream Essence and its offspring, all of which are spiritual medicines that can prolong life, second only to the elixir of immortality.

Of course, to be honest, it's really not that complicated.

In the original story, Gai Jiuyou also went to the Qinling Mountains, clearly also for the Dream Essence and the Immortal Elixir of the Mortal World.

But in the end, Gai Jiuyou did not try to steal the medicine. Instead, he used the "Soldier's Secret" to help Ye Fan. Otherwise, Ye Fan would definitely have died here.

The reason Gai Jiuyou didn't snatch them was because these two divine medicines had no effect on his condition.

He was injured by the Great Dao during his ultimate leap, and apart from the Elixir of Immortality, no other spiritual medicine can cure the injury. This is why Gai Jiuyou did not try to snatch the medicine.

Otherwise, with his strength, no one would be qualified to compete with him.

Strictly speaking, Zhang Taichu was the biggest winner in this battle. He not only exchanged some of the spiritual medicine for the method of creating an external avatar, but also obtained the complete Azure Emperor Scripture and cultivation experience.

This gave Zhang Taichu another divine scripture from the Azure Emperor. Of course, the biggest gain was comprehending the divine prohibition.

Divine Restriction is the supreme state exclusive to the Great Emperor. Everyone who wants to become an Emperor must first master Divine Restriction.

Conversely, those who haven't comprehended the divine prohibitions shouldn't even think about it; they don't even have the qualifications to become an emperor.

For example, among the geniuses on the ancient human path, in the original work, it is clearly stated that besides Ye Fan, only Yi Tiande comprehended the divine prohibition.

The other emperors, demon gods, fairies, princes, and so on, have no divine restrictions, which means they are destined not to have the qualifications to become emperors.

Even the treacherous Yao Guang Saint Son, when he died, it wasn't mentioned whether he had any divine restrictions, at least not during the struggle for the Emperor's Path.

This is one of the reasons why Zhang Taichu never took Yao Guang Shengzi seriously. What qualifications does a genius who relies on devouring other people's physiques have to be his opponent?

In the original novel, Ye Fan first entered the Divine Forbidden Zone when he fought Yi Qingwu on the second level of Sendai. He became more and more familiar with it until he created the Heavenly Emperor Fist, at which point he was able to frequently enter the Divine Forbidden Zone.

Zhang Taichu comprehended the Divine Restriction when he was on the first level of the Sendai realm. Although the Azure Emperor's killing intent helped him, he has mastered it, and he has already surpassed Ye Fan in the original story.

In high spirits, Zhang Taichu began to plan his next steps.

"The first thing, of course, is to comprehend the complete clone emperor script. I estimate that as long as the clone emperor script is complete, I should be able to summon nine king clones. With them protecting me, the Holy Land will not be a match for me unless it unlocks its secrets."

"As for using an imperial weapon for a sneak attack, I have the Green Bronze Ingot in hand, so I'm not afraid at all!"

The Green Copper Block's role in Shrouding the Sky is to counter Imperial Weapons. Of course, a fully revived Imperial Weapon wouldn't work, but an Imperial Weapon controlled only by the second immortal being would absolutely not be able to break through the Green Copper Block's defense.

Similarly, the broken Immortal Ascension Cauldron that Ye Fan obtained from Kunlun on Earth also has this function.

Only a top-tier Great Sage like the Human Demon can use the broken Immortal Ascension Cauldron as an Emperor Weapon.

"Taichu, what are your plans next?"

"You stole the show in this battle and also got the green bronze ingot. I reckon a lot of people will want to get you, so you need to be extra careful."

.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi was somewhat worried, but Zhang Taichu had a clear understanding of the current situation.

"Don't worry, the suppression of the Great Dao by the Azure Emperor has been in place for the past few years. Those old fogies shouldn't dare to come out yet. As long as no powerful enemy at the Saint Realm appears, no one can threaten me."

Of course, Zhang Taichu also understood that these good days would only last for about ten years. When Ye Fan left Beidou, went to Ziwei Star, and returned from Ziwei Star, the Primordial Clan would be fully born.

At that time, all the imperial princes and princesses will make a powerful comeback, suppressing the geniuses of each state so much that they cannot raise their heads.

This is not the most terrifying thing; the most terrifying thing is the ancient ancestral king behind them.

The weakest among them possessed the strength of a fourth-level immortal saint, while the strongest had reached the sixth-level immortal saint realm. This was definitely beyond Zhang Taichu's ability to deal with.

Don't say that Heavenly Tribulation can kill enemies of higher levels, but this move is not actually invincible. If a sage is determined to kill Zhang Taichu, he can strike from outside Zhang Taichu's perception range and kill him in one blow.

This situation is not Zhang Taichu's speculation. There is a ready example in "Covering the Sky", namely the Divine Silkworm Princess.

She, a saintly king, was killed by a spear thrust from a distance.

The shurikens thrown from 800 li away are a famous trope in Naruto, but in Shrouding the Heavens, let alone 800 li, throwing a spear from 80,000 li away to kill someone is nothing to a Saint-level expert.

Zhang Taichu's divine sense could not reach 80,000 miles, so he had already decided to leave Beidou when the time came, so as not to give the ancient race a chance to kill him.

"What are your plans, Saintess? Would you like to come with me to the Fire Domain?"

"Fire Domain? You're trying to forge magical artifacts again?"

Zhang Taichu took out the fire-controlling gourd.

"When I was refining this gourd, I also practiced a fire-based secret technique, but my cultivation level was too low at the time to enter the ninth level of the Fire Domain."

"Now that my cultivation has improved, I should be able to enter."

After thinking for a moment, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi nodded and decided to go along. She was currently stuck at the peak of the Dragon Transformation stage, and simply staying in seclusion wouldn't be very effective, so she decided to go with Zhang Taichu.

Ye Fan and the others all wanted to go into seclusion, since they had obtained a lot of good things this time and needed to digest them and improve their cultivation.

Afterwards, everyone went home and parted ways on the outskirts of the Qinling Mountains.

Zhang Taichu brought the Holy Maiden of Yaochi to the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness, which was only a few hundred miles away from the Fire Domain.

Only then did the Holy Maiden of Yaochi ask Zhang Taichu what he had gleaned from the Azure Emperor's murderous intent, and why he was able to enter the Divine Forbidden Zone so quickly.

Zhang Taichu smiled at the Holy Maiden of Yaochi.

"I originally wanted to try to capture the laws of the imperial way, but unfortunately it was too advanced. Although I saw it, I couldn't understand it at all, and I couldn't even record it. It was like a summer insect that can't speak of ice; I was powerless."

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi was shocked. She hadn't expected that Zhang Taichu had actually captured the Imperial Law, but it was a pity that she couldn't record it.

"Moreover, after thinking about it, I realized that even if I could remember it, it wouldn't be of any use. Every Great Emperor and Ancient Emperor has a different Imperial Law. In other words, one Imperial Law can only make one Great Emperor."

"This is why it is difficult for imperial princes to become emperors. Because their bloodlines are too close, they are very likely to comprehend the same imperial laws. The advantage in the early stage will become a hindrance in the later stage."

"And then what? How did you comprehend the divine prohibition after your failure?"

Zhang Taichu organized his thoughts.

"First, I already possessed the strength of the Eight Forbidden Techniques, and the next step is the Divine Forbidden Techniques, which gave me the qualification to comprehend the Divine Forbidden Techniques. Secondly, the Azure Emperor took the initiative to impart a lot of experience to me, and in addition, I used the profound techniques to capture some things. The combination of these three factors led to my final success."

"The Azure Emperor actually passed on his power to you? Yan Ruyu is clearly his descendant."

Zhang Taichu was also a little puzzled by this, and could only conclude that it was the Emperor's sense of responsibility.

Although Yan Ruyu's talent was not weak, it was far from reaching the level of becoming an emperor. At most, she was a quasi-emperor and had no ability to stop the dark turmoil two hundred years later.

On the contrary, Zhang Taichu had it, which is why she chose him.

As for Ye Fan, he had already started investing at the Qingdi Tomb. Did you really think it was a coincidence that the green copper block fell into Ye Fan's hands?

What big shots love to do most is to disguise inevitable events as coincidences.

The Azure Emperor is like this, and so is the Ruthless Great Emperor; these are the hobbies of the big shots.

Zhang Taichu then imparted his understanding of the divine prohibitions to the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, but the latter clearly could not comprehend it.

Just like Zhang Taichu couldn't understand the Azure Emperor's imperial laws, if your cultivation level isn't high enough, even if the answer is placed in front of you, you still won't understand it.

Just as Zhang Taichu and the Holy Maiden of Yaochi were exchanging words, they flew towards the Fire Domain.

The outcome of the battle at the Qinling Immortal Pool has spread, and all the major powers know that Zhang Taichu made a great splash by entering the Divine Forbidden Zone and seizing two imperial weapons in one fell swoop.

Many people marvel at Zhang Taichu's power, and quite a few even regard him as a young emperor.

At the same time, some people gave him the title of Eastern God, in contrast to the Northern Emperor.

In other words, Zhang Taichu now possesses the strength to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Northern Emperor, the Central Emperor, and the Southern Demon.

After all, the divine restrictions are too mysterious, and can infinitely narrow the gap in cultivation levels.

Zhang Taichu is currently at the second level of the Immortal Realm, while the Northern Emperor and the Central Emperor are around the fourth level of the Immortal Realm. Theoretically, even the Eighth Forbidden Realm experts cannot cross nine minor realms, let alone more than nine.

However, the divine restriction can break this limitation, allowing one to kill enemies across an entire realm.

In short, Zhang Taichu's rapid rise has kept many people up at night, including Ji's eighth son.

Previously, in the Immortal Abode Small World, the Ji family sent two groups of people to plot against Zhang Taichu. Although they later claimed to the outside world that it was their personal behavior and had nothing to do with the Ji family.

But this is just a way to appease the weak; people of equal strength simply won't listen to it.

In other words, Ji Laoba is now very worried about being retaliated against by Zhang Taichu, so he is uneasy and has started causing trouble again.

"What did you say? A marriage alliance with the Northern Plains royal family? Marrying Ziyue to Wang Teng? What are you trying to do now?"

The Holy Lord of the Ji family coldly questioned the other party. This time, it was not just him and Ji Laoba, but the heads of all branches of the Ji family had arrived.

"Holy Lord, haven't you figured out the current situation yet? Yaochi and the Jiang family have formed an alliance because of Zhang Taichu. In this battle at the Qinling Immortal Pool, both families have gained a lot. The Human World Immortal Pill and the Dreamlike Divine Essence are second only to the Elixir of Immortality."

"The two major powers that obtained such a good thing can cultivate more second-level immortals, and even young emperors. But our Ji family has paid a lot in the Immortal Mansion Small World, but we have gained nothing."

The Holy Lord of the Ji family looked grim.

"Isn't this because you acted on your own initiative?"

"Holy Lord, can this all be my fault? It was your decision to send so many experts to compete for the Emperor's skin. You can't blame me for this, can you?"

The reason the Ji family didn't send anyone to the Qinling Immortal Transformation Pool this time was because they sent all their manpower to the Immortal Mansion Small World to compete for the Undying Emperor's Skin.

As a result, after two years of expending a great deal of manpower and resources, nothing was gained. This was indeed a misjudgment on the part of the Holy Lord of the Ji family.

"What does this have to do with the marriage alliance with the royal family?"

"My Lord, the Ji family is in a precarious situation. If we don't improve our strength as soon as possible, our power in the Eastern Wilderness will be gradually eroded by Yaochi and the Jiang family. In addition, Zhang Taichu already has the aura of a young emperor. We must find a genius who can rival him. Relying on Haoyue alone is not enough."
