The story of "Covering the Sky" begins with checking in with the Void Emperor's Blood

Chapter 104 Temporary Departure

Do you know where you went wrong?

Old Peng Wang's eyes were sharp, and a divine light seemed to emanate from them, captivating and extremely sacred.

Even though he is now severely injured, with wounds all over his body, he still exudes a powerful aura, like an unparalleled demon, making him someone not to be underestimated.

"I... shouldn't have been so arrogant... provoking the Imperial Prince..."

""

Golden-Winged Roc King opened his mouth, but finally a look of unwillingness appeared on his face as he spoke.

You're wrong!

Old Peng King interrupted Little Peng King, saying, "It's not wrong for a young person to be arrogant and conceited, but your mistake lies in your lack of strength."

""

"If you have the strength, arrogance is nothing; it's the confidence of a victor. But if you're weak and still arrogant, then you're just a clown! Even if you don't learn this lesson this time, there will be a next time!"

"I've spoiled you too much, making you too arrogant. You don't even understand the basic principle of the survival of the fittest!"

He looked at the Golden-Winged Roc King in front of him, his eyes filled with deep disappointment.

He personally trained the Golden-Winged Roc King, so he naturally understood its temperament very well.

In his view, arrogance and pride are not a problem. This world is a dog-eat-dog world, and the arrogance of the strong is acceptable and should not be condemned.

But to be weak and yet to act aggressively towards the strong is the greatest sin.

What's even more foolish is that the Golden-Winged Roc King didn't even know whether his opponent was strong or weak, yet he dared to provoke him directly.

That's not confidence, that's foolishness.

If he continues to be this foolish, even if the Golden-Winged Roc King doesn't encounter Chen Yu, he will eventually run into other stronger opponents and suffer an even more miserable end.

"After you return this time, you should go into seclusion and cultivate diligently!"

He rebuked you, saying, "In the past, you were ignorant and arrogant, shouting day and night about becoming an emperor. Now, an imperial prince is right in front of you. If you can't even defeat him, how can you talk about becoming an emperor!"

"The Imperial Prince... will become the Emperor..."

""

The Golden-Winged Roc King got up from the ground and thought about the past.

He was the pride of the Tianpeng clan, growing up in the awe of countless people since childhood. He firmly believed that he would one day attain enlightenment, become a demon emperor, and lead the demon race to its peak once again.

But now, he has only taken the first step, and his dream of attaining enlightenment has been shattered, his heart broken by the blows.

This is just one imperial prince, yet he is already so terrifying.

What kind of strength do those true young emperors possess?

The Golden-Winged Roc King felt terrified whenever he thought of this.

One failure is nothing.

Old Peng Wang said, "Keep moving forward with him as your goal. Only when you can truly catch up with him will you truly have the potential to attain enlightenment."

"Before that, put away all those big words and don't embarrass yourself by bringing them out."

"I understand, Grandfather."

The Golden-Winged Roc King took a deep breath and then nodded emphatically.

After this failure, he seemed much more composed.

Looking at his grandson, who had changed so much, Old Peng felt a pang of heartache, but also a sense of relief.

Sure enough, things are easy to learn.

No matter how many times Old Pengwang had mentioned it, Little Pengwang remained stubborn and arrogant, showing no sign of repentance.

As a result of this calamity, without the old Roc King saying anything, the Golden-Winged Roc King spontaneously completed his transformation, and his entire spirit and energy were greatly different.

He took the Golden-Winged Roc King away and then left without lingering.

"Princess, the old Peng King has passed away."

Inside the Hall of Immortality, Qin Yao stepped forward and informed the elder Peng King of his departure.

"it is good."

Yan Ruyu nodded, then looked at Chen Yu beside her: "Husband..."

"No need to say more."

Chen Yu slowly opened his eyes, met Yan Ruyu's gaze, and shook his head: "Just a mere Little Peng King, I wouldn't bother with him."

"You can decide how to handle it yourself."

To be honest, he never took the Golden-Winged Roc King seriously.

Leaving aside the three series as a whole, even just considering the early stages of the world of "Covering the Sky," this guy can only be considered a nobody.

The Four Great Emperors, the Holy Son of Yao Guang, and so on—any one of them could easily defeat them.

If it weren't for the provocation, Chen Yu wouldn't have bothered to fight it.

Now that we've taught them a lesson and done what needed to be done, we can leave the rest to Yan Ruyu.

He doesn't care about the outcome.

Seeing that Chen Yu didn't seem to care about her letting Old Peng King go, Yan Ruyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, Chen Yu's temper was actually very good. He treated everyone equally, whether they were powerful figures or lowly maids, always maintaining a polite and courteous demeanor.

However, what Xiaopeng Wang did this time was indeed too much, daring to provoke in public, which has a different meaning.

Yan Ruyu was genuinely afraid that Chen Yu might use the Imperial Weapon if things went wrong, thus incurring the wrath of the entire Tianpeng Clan.

If that's the case, then she'll have no choice but to urge the Azure Emperor's weapons to attack the Tianpeng clan and try to make things as clean as possible.

Fortunately, this outcome did not occur.

Although Chen Yu disliked the Golden-Winged Roc King, he had not yet reached the point of taking his anger out on the entire Roc clan.

"It would be better to spare his life."

Not far away, Pang Bo spoke viciously, "That damned birdman dares to be so insolent just because he has some cultivation. When I enter the Four Extremes in the future, I'll make him pay!"

He was also seething with anger.

Not only because of the Golden-Winged Roc King's attitude, but also because he thought the other party would attack without warning and almost kill him.

He has already remembered this grudge, and he will definitely take revenge on himself when he advances to the fourth level.

"Then you'll have to work harder."

Chen Yu smiled and said, "If you're not fast enough, by the time you reach the Four Extremes Realm, he'll probably have already transformed into a dragon."

"It's alright."

Pang Bo said confidently, "This birdman looks terrifying, but his actual combat strength is just so-so."

"Once I advance to the Four Extremes Realm, with the Nine Slashes of the Demon Emperor, even if he achieves perfection in the Four Extremes Realm, he may not be able to defeat me."

His words were filled with confidence, suggesting that he could defeat the Golden-Winged Roc King.

This confidence is not unfounded.

Because he had been possessed by an old demon, he shared the old demon's memories and gained access to the cultivation memories of this peerless demon, thus his cultivation speed increased by leaps and bounds.

His own conditions are also quite good. His demon god bloodline has been revived, and he has also consumed a sacred fruit, receiving the baptism of divine medicine. His aptitude is definitely no less than that of the Golden-Winged Roc King.

The scriptures he cultivates are even more extraordinary, being the supreme Azure Emperor Scripture of the Azure Emperor lineage and the supreme scripture of the Demon race. The Nine Slashes of the Demon Emperor is a forbidden chapter that can rival the Nine Secrets, making it extremely powerful.

If he were to fight the Golden-Winged Roc King at the same level, he would be absolutely confident that he could defeat him.

Having confidence is a good thing.

Hearing Pang Bo's words, Chen Yu smiled and said, "In that case, I'll lend you a hand."

He waved his hand, releasing a drop of crimson, jade-like essence blood, which contained boundless divine power and was infinitely strong.

This is the essence blood of the Azure Emperor, a supreme treasure of the demon race, gushing forth from the Azure Emperor's sacred heart.

While receiving the baptism of essence blood cannot improve one's cultivation level, it can lay an incredibly solid foundation, cleanse the physical body, and bring about an unparalleled transformation.

"Thank you, Professor Chen."

Upon seeing the drop of Azure Emperor's essence blood, Pang Bo's eyes lit up. He quickly used his divine power to collect it and began to express his gratitude.

After finishing his business here, Chen Yu returned to his secluded retreat and spent some time cultivating again.

Then he came out of the pass, ready to leave.

"Want to walk together?"

He looked at Yan Ruyu in front of him and extended an invitation.

Yan Ruyu was somewhat tempted, but then shook her head: "I still have some things to take care of."

"The people from the Thirteen Great Bandits have heard some rumors and have been sending people to us frequently recently, wanting to form an alliance with us."

"The Thirteen Great Bandits?"

Upon hearing the name, Chen Yu understood.

The Thirteen Great Bandits were a powerful force that roamed the Northern Regions, composed of thirteen formidable figures.

They are enemies of the holy lands and have been fighting endlessly. Now that they have heard news of the Azure Emperor's lineage, they will naturally take action.

After all, they are completely aligned in their positions.

The Thirteen Great Bandits are mortal enemies of the various holy lands, while the Azure Emperor lineage is also suppressed by many ancient families and holy lands. They also possess the Azure Lotus Emperor Weapon, making them an excellent candidate for cooperation.

The master of this small world, the Azure Dragon King, is also one of the Thirteen Great Bandits.

With this relationship in place, the two sides will naturally interact more.

"Do as you please."

Chen Yu said, "If it really doesn't work out, there's no need to force yourself."

"With the strength of the two of us, we have nothing to fear, even if we were to fight against the entire holy land of the Eastern Wilderness."

In the present-day Beidou Land, even those ancient families that possess imperial weapons, aside from the hidden resources within their clans, are nothing more than that. At most, they are just a powerful being, not even a Great Completion King.

Such strength is nothing to Chen Yu; he could easily kill him if he wanted to.

"I see."

Yan Ruyu nodded, understanding this point perfectly.

The current situation of the Azure Emperor's lineage is vastly different from that of the past.

With Chen Yu in front of them, they possess two imperial weapons. With such strength, not only would the Thirteen Great Bandits not dare to provoke them, but even the ancient aristocratic families would not dare to easily provoke them.

Strength is the foundation of everything, so Yan Ruyu's current state is quite different from before, appearing much more composed.

"Don't go too long, or you'll regret it when you come back."

She gazed at Chen Yu, her eyes filled with reluctance: "I'll wait for you here."

"There's no need to do that, making it seem like a life-or-death separation."

Chen Yu smiled, looking quite relaxed, and simply waved his hand: "I'm just going out to find an opportunity to overcome this tribulation."

After bidding farewell to Yan Ruyu, he turned and left the Hall of Immortality, walking directly out of Qi.

He headed directly towards the Holy City, choosing to walk instead of using the teleportation array to experience the undulations of the Northern Region.

For him, this is also a form of spiritual practice.

By experiencing the fluctuations of the earth's veins in different places, and by absorbing the Daoist rhythms between mountains and rivers, one can enhance one's understanding of the Dao and deepen one's Daoist practice step by step.

He used this method of cultivation to gradually travel through one region after another.
