In the world of "Covering the Sky," my cultivation technique is not right.

The two continued on their way and soon left the outer perimeter of Zishan Mountain, officially stepping into its depths.

If people still try their luck at collecting source stones on the outskirts of Purple Mountain, only to die and leave behind piles of bones, then within this area, it's rare to see the corpses of ordinary cultivators.

Those who left their corpses here were all powerful cultivators.

A demonic power emanated from the depths of Purple Mountain, which not only Lü Yao felt but also Ye Fan sensed.

The stone skin tightly enveloped his sea of ​​consciousness, blocking the summoning of this demonic power.

The two fell into silence, continuing to walk along the stone path, leaving only the echoing sound of their footsteps.

Stone carvings and murals began to appear on the stone wall, recording events from the ancient and primitive periods, all left by ancient people's knives and axes.

It is very simple, telling the details of how humans came to mine when Purple Mountain was a large source stone mine.

Later, the creatures on the stone carvings became increasingly strange. Someone unearthed a creature with a single horn growing from its forehead, which led to the deaths of everyone.

This person, with horns growing from between his eyebrows, has six arms and a pair of wings. When he roars to the sky, the earth cracks, mines collapse, and underground magma erupts.

Later, more and more strange creatures appeared, slaughtering the surrounding humans. More and more corpses piled up like mountains, and blood gathered into rivers that meandered into the distance, making it a veritable hell on earth.

Later, a person descended, and on the stone carving, the character "帝" (Emperor) was written above the person's head. With one hand, he exterminated all the strange creatures.

Moreover, the stone carvings are extremely lifelike, depicting the aura of that powerful human being that soared through the heavens and was revered by all.

The next stone carvings began to appear intermittently, and then from a stone that seemed to be a source, an incredibly terrifying creature emerged, resembling a woman, possessing extreme power.

The human emperor unleashed his weapon, a massive bell that reached the heavens and earth, which crashed down upon Ye Fan with an immense power that seemed to span tens of thousands of years.

The stone carvings were finally completed, and the few remaining images were barely discernible, marking the complete end of the ancient history.

Ye Fan looked lost and disappointed: "Such a strange thing happened here, yet no one in the Eastern Wilderness has told about it."

Lu Yao smiled faintly: "Ancient history is vast and boundless, often spanning tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years. Only ancient families and holy lands with equally ancient lineages can leave behind a trace of records. Most cultivators are just fish in the long river of history, born in the morning and dying at night, never seeking transcendence."

"What is transcendence? Did the emperor and that strange woman in the mural transcend?" Ye Fan asked curiously. The two were extremely powerful. The scene depicted in the mural of the sun and moon losing their balance and stars falling when they fought was truly terrifying. How could any cultivator be so powerful?

When he first arrived at Beidou, Lü Yao told him that after becoming a sage, he would be able to physically traverse the starry sky and return to Earth.

He once thought that the sages were powerful enough, but now it seems that the human emperor is even more powerful than the sages, and the starry sky is just something the emperor can play with at will.

Lu Yao was silent for a while, then slowly said, "That human emperor should be the Wushi Emperor. He has traversed the four eras of mythology, primordial era, ancient era, and post-ancient era, and no one dares to say that he is more powerful than him, but he still has not transcended."

The woman who emerged from the divine source must be the Immortal Empress.

She was sealed into this era by the Immortal Emperor, so calling her a supreme being is absolutely no problem; if it really comes down to a fight, even the beings lurking in the forbidden zones will have to come out and open their mouths.

But if you're saying that the Great Emperor Wushi would have to go all out to defeat her, then you're joking.

Even if Emperor Wushi was in his later years, defeating Empress Wushi would have been a piece of cake, much easier than suppressing the Immortal Daoist.

Lu Yao guessed that it was most likely that Wushi Zhong had fully recovered and was fighting against the Undying Empress, while Wushi Emperor was watching the battle. This explanation would be more in line with Wushi Emperor's combat strength.

The humans who recorded the events couldn't distinguish so many details and assumed that the Great Emperor Wushi had manipulated the Imperial Bell and, after a long battle, suppressed the creatures deep within Purple Mountain.

"If even the Great Emperor of the Human Race has not transcended, who can?" Ye Fan's eyes revealed a look of doubt. If that were really the case, what would the Beidou cultivators' talk of proving the Dao be?

Lu Yao shook his head: "Your cultivation is too low, only at the third level of the Dao Palace. Knowing too much will not be conducive to your future cultivation. As long as you can pass the three hurdles, come and ask me again then, and I will tell you a sliver of information about transcendence."

"Which three levels?" Ye Fan asked.

"Great Success, Emperor's Confirmation..." Lu Yao hesitated for a moment, then said, "Become an Immortal."

Ye Fan fell silent for a moment, then slowly uttered, "Are you deliberately making things difficult because you don't know?"

Let alone achieving great success, he hasn't even scratched the surface of the Four Heavenly Gates! In what lifetime will he ever learn these secrets?

"Forget it, I don't want to know anymore. I just want to live and find my way back to Earth." Ye Fan waved his hand casually and continued walking deeper into the ground.

Lü Yao was helpless. Ye Fan's biggest obsession right now was to return to Earth and take care of his parents. He didn't have much interest in proving the Dao or becoming an immortal.

Even their current combat strength was only unleashed when they were being hunted down and forced to show it.

Lü Yao and Ye Fan walked side by side.

Ye Fan: "The Zhang family's ancestor was the fifth generation of Source Master. In his later years, he encountered misfortune. Perhaps in order to avoid the curse, or perhaps in order to find a solution in Purple Mountain, he entered Purple Mountain and became trapped here."

A thousand years ago, Zhang Jiye, an ancestor of the Zhang family, also got lost here while searching for traces of his ancestors and the Source Book, and most likely died here.

The Zhang family promised me that as long as I find the Source Book, I can learn its secret techniques.

Lu Yao said, "Master Yuan's later years are fraught with misfortune, aren't you afraid?"

"What's there to be afraid of? What's more terrifying than being poor?" Ye Fan was almost driven to death by the tens of millions of kilograms of Origin needed to advance to the Fourth Extreme Secret Realm. Even if he really grew red hair all over his body, he would still learn it.

Without a source, one cannot cultivate; without cultivation, one cannot return to Earth.

Lu Yao thought to himself: It's alright, all of you holy bodies will grow hair anyway, whether it's gold or red, it's all the same.

After traveling for a while, two ancient caves appeared ahead, their depths unfathomable. One cave was filled with spiritual energy, with primordial energy constantly surging upwards, while the other was filled with malevolent energy. The two caves resembled yin and yang, like a tai chi symbol.

This is the great power of nature, containing the divine power of the Great Dao.

Your "Tai Chi Chuan" technique sensed the Yin-Yang Divine Cave naturally formed in Zishan Mountain, and you suddenly had an epiphany.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed, staring intently into the depths of the two sacred caves.

Ultimately, it discovered that the primordial energy and the malevolent energy were merely superficial. These two divine caves connected to the deepest part of Purple Mountain, perhaps containing pure Yin and Yang energies. It had a premonition that this might be the opportunity to advance its quasi-emperor secret technique.

Lü Yaoming understood that this Yin-Yang Divine Cave might allow Tai Chi Chuan to completely transform into a supreme technique.

"I'll stay here for a while; I want to try to understand this Yin-Yang Ancient Cave."

Lu Yao's sudden words startled Ye Fan, who was about to throw a bone to test the power of the ancient cave.

"Alright, I'll protect you."

"Lend me the Bodhi seeds." Lü Yao didn't stand on ceremony and reached out his hand to ask for them.

Ye Fan took out a Bodhi seed with a Buddha image printed on it, handed it to Lü Yao, and then stepped aside to carefully observe his surroundings.

Lu Yao sat cross-legged in front of the sacred cave, closed his eyes, and shared his understanding of Tai Chi Chuan. At the same time, the Bodhi seed in his hand shone brightly, and a wonderful charm enveloped him.

With the combined blessings of his understanding of Tai Chi and Bodhi seeds, he took off!
