In the world of "Covering the Sky," one can refine Gu (a type of poison) to become an immo

Chapter 165 Blood Oath and Mountain Alliance (4k)

The Qilin Staff and the others remained silent, seemingly shocked by the news.

After a while, Wan Longling asked for confirmation: "You haven't actually entered that realm, so you don't know its mysteries. A Supreme is a Supreme; even if they cut themselves, even if they exhaust their life force, their combat power won't drop at all."

As she spoke, the Deity Wanlongling pointed to the aura of the Wanqing Immortal Gu on Sha Xiao's body and said, "Moreover, once the path to immortality opens, those supreme beings from forbidden zones can recall their former Dao Fruits and return to their peak. How could several peak Great Emperors possibly fail to enter the path to immortality?"

The Qilin Staff and the others remained silent, agreeing with the judgment of the Myriad Dragon Bell.

They had all, to varying degrees, confronted those supreme beings in the forbidden zones alongside their masters, and knew how formidable those supreme beings were.

Once the Dao Fruit is awakened, those Supreme Beings will immediately become the peerless heroes who once dominated the nine heavens and ten earths, and there is nothing in the world they cannot do.

Moreover, there will certainly be more than one Supreme Being appearing at that time.

and many more!

Upon realizing this, the several imperial weapons were startled and all looked at Jian Chen, who was coughing up blood.

"This person previously used the 'Former' secret technique to see blood and sorrow—"

The Qilin Staff reminisced.

"Does that mean none of those supreme beings managed to break through?"

Wan Longling was somewhat incredulous.

"Yes, that's why there was that great dark upheaval—"

Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd suddenly realized.

Several imperial weapon deities quickly exchanged information in secret and verified their deductions.

Huo Linzi held his brother's hand tightly, and they looked at each other.

They were of one mind and immediately realized that the other was thinking the same thing.

At this moment, whether they were imperial weapons and deities, imperial princes and princesses, or great saints and protectors entrusted with important tasks, they all thought of the same thing.

This is a very simple deduction.

Besides this, what else could cause an elder of the same generation as the Void to see such a tragic scene in the Foreword Secret?

Wan Longling snapped out of her daze and looked at Sha Xiao anxiously, asking, "Words alone aren't enough; do you have any proof?"

Amidst everyone's anticipation, Sha Xiao looked at Wan Longling and said mischievously, drawing out her words, "Of course there is."

"Ding-a-ling~~~"

The Wanlong Bell twisted its body, its sound waves tearing apart the surrounding void.

Sha Xiao's eyes darted around, and he said coldly, "A peerless demon emperor has already tried it. He was a genius who found a new path that even the emperors had not noticed, found another correct location, and broke in at the right time."

"hiss-!"

Jiang Hengzhou gasped, staring at Sha Xiao in disbelief.

"So, does that mean the Azure Emperor became an immortal?"

Jiang Yifei couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"impossible!"

Princess Wanlong broke down, her beautiful eyes fixed on Sha Xiao's face, as if she could detect any flaws in Sha Xiao's lie.

"How is that possible?"

Huo Qizi blurted out, his face full of doubt.

"Has anyone really become an immortal?"

Huo Lin'er's beautiful, watery eyes, like blue crystals, flickered with doubt as she murmured softly.

Huang Xudao clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and his peaceful aura vanished, replaced by a sudden surge of fighting spirit.

Himeko's mind was not on this at all; he was communicating with Jian Chen through his divine sense, repeatedly confirming something.

The Void Mirror deity was instantly burned by Sha Xiao's words.

It quickly retrieved its past monitoring signals of the universe and asked in disbelief, "This is impossible. No path to immortality has been opened in the last 30,000 years. When did the Azure Emperor enter the path to immortality?"

The Qilin Staff looked at Sha Xiao solemnly and asked, "Son of the Azure Emperor, this is a serious matter. Please explain."

Hooked.

Sha Xiao looked at the imposing Wan Longling and continued calmly, "Of course, I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you in such a hurry? I will give you detailed information."

"That demon emperor was Xue Yueqing, the peerless demon emperor who defeated all his enemies the night before he became emperor, measured the world with a single foot, and transformed an ordinary snow rabbit into a true dragon."

"Ring ring ring"

Wanlongling realized something and twisted her body, trying to interrupt Sha Xiao.

"Fellow Daoist, please don't be impatient, lest you disregard our manners."

The Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd trembled slightly, and a clear phoenix cry suppressed the Myriad Dragon Bell.

Seeing this, the other imperial weapons also secretly joined in.

"When that Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing entered the path to immortality, he was already in his later years. At that time, he had already crossed this realm and was only one world away from opening the path to immortality."

The Wanlong Bell twisted and turned, looking just like a restless little snake; it had lost all its dragon-like aura.

Sha Xiao smiled and didn't continue, saying with regret for Xue Yueqing, "It's a pity that he was ultimately depleted of his vital energy. Even if he fought until his imperial blood was exhausted and his imperial weapon shattered, he still failed at the last moment. If it had been two thousand years earlier, he would definitely have succeeded."

"The ancient road he fought on is the same ancient road of the human race. The broken imperial weapon is still there, and it records the experience of that peerless demon emperor on the path to immortality."

Seeing that Sha Xiao was so certain and even gave the location directly, many imperial weapons believed that what he said was true.

After all, verifying this is far too easy for them.

They naturally assumed that the source of this information was the Azure Emperor, who learned of it while mourning the Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing, and then relayed it to Sha Xiao.

"The difficulties encountered on the path to immortality are a valuable asset. Is he really leaving them to all living beings like this? Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing, what a grand spirit! Fire Kirin Cave will remember this favor."

The Qilin Staff spoke in a deep voice.

"Brother Dao, there's no need to be angry. The Dragon Emperor simply hasn't encountered the path to immortality yet."

While seemingly praising the Myriad Dragon Emperor, the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd was actually subtly inciting trouble for the Myriad Dragon Bell.

Is your Guhuang any good?

Both are supreme beings, both are dragons, yet they managed to find the right time and the right path to immortality, and almost broke through to achieve it. Your ancient emperor couldn't even find it, tsk tsk—

It seems that there are differences between dragons.

Wanlongling remained silent, lying flat and letting the mockery continue.

There was nothing they could do. Their ancient emperor was known as the Emperor of Ten Thousand Dragons, but in this matter, he couldn't even compare to a dragon evolved from a snow rabbit. It was so shameful that they couldn't bear to look.

"Therefore, to break through the path to immortality, there are three essential elements: the right time, the right place, and the right person."

"Even the right path requires a powerful emperor of the present era to enter it."

Sha Xiao looked at the many thoughtful princes and princesses and smiled, "So, why do you think your father arranged for you to wake up in this era? Although it's cruel, they were indeed trying their best to arrange a chance for you to become immortals."

"I have come to prove my Dao! In this life, I will surely attain Emperorhood and pave the way to Immortality for my father. To restore the glory of the Ten Thousand Dragons Clan is our inescapable duty!"

Suddenly, the Princess of Ten Thousand Dragons spoke in a cold and firm voice, her tone resounding and filled with determination.

Everyone looked at the calm-faced Princess Wanlong in surprise.

Her face was calm, her gaze resolute, and her expression solemn, without a trace of joking.

Anyone who glances at her will know that she has made a firm decision on her path, one that cannot be swayed by any trials and tribulations.

"Excellent! Truly worthy of the old master's blood!"

Looking at the resolute Princess Wanlong, Sha Xiao secretly admired her.

Unwavering perseverance—that is the true nature of Princess Wanlong.

Therefore, in the original work, even though she was among the top-ranking characters among the imperial princes, she still fought to the death after failing to challenge Ye Fan, and lost her life early on.

"Now, we have achieved basic mutual trust. The danger of two hundred years from now is imminent. At the normal pace, they have absolutely no chance of reaching the Great Emperor realm within two hundred years."

Sha Xiao shifted his gaze from Princess Wanlong, looked at the numerous imperial weapons, and gestured towards the imperial princes, saying, "Let's establish an alliance. I'll guide the princess and the others in learning the new methods, and you'll offer your resources for our cultivation. We won't fight each other before the Dark Turmoil, and we'll have a fair battle before the final leap."

Wan Longling warily interrupted Jiang Hengzhou, who was about to speak, and said first, "I agree, but this alliance must be decided by you."

The purpose of the Qilin Staff and the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd coming here was to obtain the new law and establish an alliance. Although it took some effort, the result is about to be achieved, so they have no objection.

Sha Xiao smiled slightly.

Although it's still an alliance, the current situation is completely different from when the three ancient royal families first arrived.

Previously, the ancient royal family claimed it was an alliance, but in reality, it was an attitude akin to charity.

Now everything has turned upside down; the ancient race is begging him to form an alliance and to learn their new methods.

Sha Xiao successfully used the crisis two hundred years later to stir up the sense of crisis among many imperial weapons and imperial princes and princesses, and sold the new law that he originally planned to release for free to the position of the leader of an alliance.

He will assume leadership and dominance, which will greatly benefit his efforts to implement his plan to combat the dark turmoil.

Sha Xiaochao reached out to Jiang Yifei and said, "I'll borrow your Blood Alliance Immortal Gu for a bit."

Jiang Yifei's eyes lit up, and without the slightest hesitation, he took out the Gu worm and handed it to Sha Xiao.

Seeing Sha Xiao, the founder, use this Gu worm was a rare learning opportunity for him.

"Huh, this is... a very strange path."

Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd looked in surprise at the Blood Alliance Immortal Gu in Sha Xiao's hand.

As the imperial weapon of the Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor, it dares to say that it is at least among the top three in the world when it comes to things related to blood energy, if not the best.

However, the approach demonstrated by the Blood Alliance Immortal Gu still surprised it.

That ambiguous feeling made it somewhat doubtful whether this was truly a Dao principle related to the Blood Dao.

Sha Xiaotuo held up the Blood Alliance Immortal Gu and introduced it: "I named this Gu Blood Alliance. The Dao principles related to blood are merely a medium. The true Dao origin it involves is curses and oaths."

Jiang Yifei suddenly realized why he had been unable to activate this immortal Gu, which was born of heaven and earth.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

Heavy footsteps sounded, the space rippled, and Pang Bo, his face flushed, dragged a three-peaked mountain out of the space tunnel.

"And this is it again?"

The deity with the Qilin Staff constantly patrolled back and forth over Pang Bo, who had transformed into a Kunpeng, and the green mountain he carried.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Sha Xiao didn't need to activate the Myriad Green Immortal Gu; simply by manipulating some of its aura, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth within a three-meter radius spontaneously harmonized.

They helped.

With a simple reach, he effortlessly lifted the Qingmao Mountain Secret Realm, which even Pang Bo, who could still outrun the Golden-Winged Roc despite carrying a 100,000-meter-high mountain, had a flushed face.

Sha Xiao had Pang Bo leave ahead of time so that he could prepare a powerful weapon.

Pang Bo lived up to expectations and quickly brought back the Qingmao Mountain Secret Realm located in the Northern Region.

Although Pang Bo did not possess the Mountain-Pulling Immortal Gu, such a brutal movement of Qingmao Mountain inevitably damaged this secret realm.

But these are minor issues; as long as the main body of the Qingmaoshan Secret Realm remains, it can be repaired later.

Pang Bo felt that if the ancient royal family had ill intentions, Sha Xiao, with the support of the Qingmao Mountain Secret Realm, could force the Sendai to retreat at the fourth level, and could definitely defeat them now.

Sha Xiao, holding the secret realm of Qingmao Mountain, bit her tongue, forcing out a drop of cyan blood swirling with chaotic energy, which fell onto the Blood Oath Immortal Gu, writing a simple oath on it.

The Blood Oath Immortal Gu, after being integrated into the Qingmao Mountain Secret Realm, experienced an exponential surge in power, comparable to the aura of an unorthodox Dao attainment, which swirled around Sha Xiao's hands.

This is the sixth-rank immortal technique, the "Blood Oath Mountain Alliance," which Sha Xiao improved upon from the memories of the Paradise Immortal Venerable. It was originally an eighth-rank earth-path killing move called "Mountain Alliance and Sea Oath."

"What a bizarre curse power!"

The Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Deity watched warily as the mountain peak stained with blood appeared on Sha Xiao's hand.

Sha Xiao displayed the mountain peak in his hand and said, "Everyone can check if there are any additions or modifications to the oath. If there are no objections, I would like to ask all the imperial sons to offer a drop of their heart's blood as a guide, and the imperial weapons to infuse their Dao fruits."

"In this way, the covenant is bound to this secret realm. As long as the mountain stands, the covenant will never disappear until it is completed."

With some doubt, the Qilin Staff asked, "Isn't a small mountain too easily damaged?"

Sha Xiao smiled and explained, "This mountain has been recorded in the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Although it can be destroyed temporarily, it will naturally be reborn in the universe as long as the conditions are right."

"In other words, this alliance can never be dissolved by any other means except by fulfilling certain conditions, not even by me."

o

"Indeed, it's truly amazing. Is this the new method you've pioneered? I understand now how you condensed the Azure Emperor's Heavenly Heart Imprint."

Wan Longling's body collided crisply.

Seeing that the imperial weapons had been confirmed, the imperial princes and princesses stepped forward and each shed their essence blood.

Beneath Sha Xiao's feet, the Azure Lotus Imperial Weapon appeared, infusing it with the aura of the Azure Emperor's Great Dao. Sha Xiao led the group in reciting a simple covenant: "Today, the Azure Emperor lineage/Void lineage/Hengyu lineage/Blood Phoenix Mountain lineage/Ten Thousand Dragon Nest lineage/Fire Spirit Cave lineage hereby establish this covenant:

To join hands in resisting the darkness and turmoil, and to protect all living beings, from this day forward, our six lineages will share resources and techniques, and will never fight amongst ourselves. With this oath, even if our bloodline turns to ashes, we will not hesitate to die a thousand deaths.

"Buzz"

As soon as he finished speaking, the heavens and earth trembled, and all the myriad paths resounded. Invisible chains linked the six imperial weapons and the imperial princes together.

Everyone instantly realized that this vow had been imprinted on the Great Dao along with the Qingmaoshan Secret Realm.

Unless the dark turmoil two hundred years from now is perfectly resolved, this oath will remain with them forever.

If this vow is not fulfilled, then the bloodline and the principles of cultivation acquired from this day forward will be completely stripped away.

"Here you go. This is the cultivation approach of the new method. My approach emphasizes talent and temperament; bloodline is merely an embellishment. If you can't learn it, come back to me."

Immediately after signing the alliance agreement, Sha Xiao tossed the jade tablet he had prepared to the group.

"In that case, I won't bother you any longer."

Huang Xudao left the tea leaves behind, then quickly broke through the void with the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd and disappeared.

"These are my father's scriptures, excluding the forbidden chapters. I hope you will not fail them, Holy Son, farewell to the Northern Region."

Huo Qizi solemnly tossed the scriptures to Sha Xiao, then, leading the seemingly lingering Huo Lin'er, followed the Qilin Staff and broke through the void to leave.

"Hmph, just you wait, I'll surpass you soon."

Princess Wanlong tossed the scripture to Sha Xiao, uttered a harsh remark, and left.

"We won't bother you any longer. Come visit the Jiang family when you have time. Your things are still waiting for you to collect."

Jiang Hengzhou looked at Sha Xiao, who was returning the Blood Alliance Immortal Gu to Jiang Yifei, and nodded with a smile.

"Of course, I will definitely come."

Sha Xiao squinted, smiled as she saw the Jiang family off, and turned to look at Ji Zi, who was standing in the corner and had no presence at all.
