As the murmur of the gods was uttered, those supreme beings of the forbidden zones who attempted to stir up dark turmoil and devour billions of living beings to replenish their essence felt a sudden chill as a cold wind blew by, causing their bodies to tremble.

"Strange, why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

"Is it the void?!"

"No, it feels like an unfamiliar presence, as if it intends to do something malicious to us."

"Why think so much? What's the situation in the void lately? Are we preparing to stir up another dark upheaval? I need to replenish my energy and await the path to immortality!"

"."

Within the forbidden zone, numerous supreme beings whispered amongst themselves, plotting the beginning of a dark upheaval and dividing the life essence of various regions.

Meanwhile, after Shen Du arrived in the Holy City, he was immediately met with countless gazes filled with greed and delight as soon as he stepped inside.

"This guy seems to be a dragon."

"Foolish! Look at the dragon horns on his head, he must be a dragon!"

"How about we head to the Holy Land of Yao Guang now and collect our reward?"

"Fellow Daoists, the message only contains ten thousand catties of divine source. Why don't we go forward, capture him, and hand him over to the people of the Yao Guang Holy Land, and receive one hundred thousand catties of divine source in return? Wouldn't that be wonderful?!"

"That makes sense!"

"This guy is only at the fourth level of cultivation. Most of the fellow cultivators here are half-step great powers. Capturing this dragon will be a piece of cake!"

"Wait, how will it be distributed? What if the Yao Guang Holy Land gives us all 100,000 jin of divine source?!"

"Yes, how should it be allocated?"

In my opinion, it should be me.

"."

As the gods entered the holy city, they scanned the surroundings but did not see any of the ancient races, though they did see quite a few demons.

The ancient races hid themselves from the world at the end of the ancient era. When they emerged from the world, it was the golden age of the post-ancient era, the time when the path to immortality through the Big Dipper began.

Now, we can't even see the faces of the ancient races.

Entering human territory was rather reckless; the dragon horns on his forehead were not even concealed.

But since he had already been seen, there was no need for him to hide his dragon horns.

"Hahaha, a mere fourth-level realm cultivator, my 100,000 jin of divine source, just obediently surrender, hahaha!"

Just as Shen Du was pondering, an arrogant and domineering voice suddenly came from beside him, accompanied by a large net filled with divine runes, which attacked Shen Du. Behind the net, there was also a cultivator who was half a step into the Immortal Realm.

Clearly, this is a magical artifact.

As Shen Du regained his senses, the massive net swept towards him, and he spoke slightly, "True Dragon Claw!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his palms transformed into claws, and the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques—the True Dragon Treasure Technique—was unleashed with overwhelming force.

In an instant, the deafening roar of a dragon resounded throughout the surrounding area, spanning hundreds of miles.

The divine power within his body evolved into a golden, boundless dragon claw. Although it was a creation of divine power, one could still see the dragon scales faintly visible on the claw, which emitted a blazing golden light as it suddenly tore through the direction from which the large net was coming.

"tear--"

In the blink of an eye, the magical treasure was torn to shreds by the dragon's claw, which then lashed out at the half-step great power.

"puff!"

"My precious treasure!"

His eyes were glazed over, filled with disbelief, but before he could come to his senses, everything suddenly went black.

The next moment, this human, who was half a step into a great power, tore the true dragon claw of the Divine Capital into powder, just like the former.

After doing all this, the god turned his gaze and scanned the surrounding void, looking at those who were trying to attack him.

His gaze swept across the area, and the hidden crowd quickly averted their eyes, their hearts filled with extreme surprise.

Those who had just been discussing capturing the Divine Capital in exchange for 100,000 jin of divine energy also shuddered and instantly abandoned their suicidal thoughts.

Afterwards, Shen Du paid no attention, having just killed a half-step great power, and then strode towards the Yaochi Holy Land's residence.

Chapter 184 The Fairy of Yaochi changes her mind faster than flipping through a book.

"He left."

"It seems they're heading to the Yaochi camp. Should we follow them and take a look?"

"."

After a long silence, the few half-step great cultivators who had been itching to make a move turned their eyes to the location of the person who had previously discussed with them whether to take down the capital together, and their eyes twitched instantly.

After a moment of stunned silence, the group exchanged glances, a flash of inspiration crossing their faces, and then roared in unison, "Damn it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure flashed and he rushed towards the Yao Guang base.

Yes, the person is gone.

This only shows that they couldn't defeat the capital, so they went to inform the people of the Yao Guang Holy Land and let them handle it.

The 100,000 jin of divine energy is gone!

Ten thousand catties of divine essence can be obtained with ease!

Why not take advantage of this free reward?

These human beings, who were only half-step into the Great Power realm, never expected that the guy who was just chatting and laughing with them would betray them and run off to the Yao Guang camp ahead of time to collect his reward.

Utterly hateful!

They could only pray that, at their speed, they could catch up with those who had betrayed them.

When they arrived at Yaoguang's base, they saw that they had already taken 10,000 catties of divine source. The second elder of Yaoguang Holy Land, holding a divine weapon of the level of a Dao-slaying King, hurriedly headed to Yaoguang's base.

"Fellow Daoists, you all!"

"What happened to us?"

The group who received the divine source laughed and said that this reward was no different from getting it for free.

Those cultivators who were a step too late were filled with anger and resentment.

Unfortunately, since this is a holy city, if a fight breaks out, other forces will probably intervene to stop it. In short, the backgrounds of certain sects are not something that these rogue cultivators can afford to offend.

There's no chance of a fight now, but once we leave the Holy City, into the desolate wilderness, where there's no sign of life, things could change drastically.

"."

at the same time.

Shen Du had already arrived not far from Yaochi's encampment. He looked up and was immediately delighted.

As he expected, there was indeed a teleportation array in the Yaochi base.

In a moment of leisure, Shen Du frowned, turned slightly, and gazed at something a thousand miles away.

"It's haunting me!"

"Why not just slap them all to death? That would save us the trouble."

As the thought arose, in the reflection of the sunlight, the figure of Shen Du seemed like a god or demon, appearing and disappearing. To outsiders, he was just a cultivator of the Four Extremes, yet he could make even a third-level Immortal King tremble with fear.

The gods are at the Four Extremes Realm. Under the premise of the innate Dao Body, their physical body is that of a second-level immortal. When transformed into the Great Sun Golden Dragon, their physical body can cross a major realm and directly become a third-level immortal king.

Within the world of "Covering the Sky," there exists an extremely special realm—a forbidden realm that only the young emperor has ever been able to enter throughout history—and he can maintain his normal state with ease.

In his Great Sun Golden Dragon form, he killed the Immortal Three-Slaying Dao King in just a few moves.

After a brief moment of thought, God decided to leave them alone for the time being.

Right now, the most important thing is to use the teleportation array at Yaochi to go to the Qishi Mansion in Zhongzhou, and then use the Five-Colored Altar to go to the Ancient Starry Road.

The fact that the human race has access to the ancient starry road does not mean that he cannot set foot on it.

As the thought dissipated, Shendu took a step forward, covering a hundred meters in a single stride. In the blink of an eye, the dragon horn on his forehead seemed to emanate a divine power that shielded vision. The human cultivators around him rubbed their eyes, and the crimson-gold dragon horn vanished instantly.

Many human cultivators thought they were seeing things; where had the person gone?!

"Fellow Daoist, what brings you here?"

A woman with an ethereal appearance stood in front of Shen Du and asked him a question.

"I wish to use the teleportation array of the Jade Pool Sacred Land to travel to the Central Continent's Mysterious Scholar's Mansion. May I ask, Fairy?"

"Oh, fellow Daoist, I advise you not to go to Zhongzhou."

Before Shen Du could finish speaking, the fairy from the Jade Pool Holy Land sighed slightly with regret.

Seeing the doubt in Shen Du's eyes, the fairy continued, "Brother Dao, in this era, with the Great Emperor in power and the Golden Age not yet in full swing, the Qishi Mansion will not be open."

"Judging from your appearance, you don't seem very old. It's just a pity that a Great Emperor has already emerged in this era. If you could break through to Quasi-Emperor under the suppression of the Emperor's Law, you would be incredibly fortunate in this life!"

This fairy from the sacred Jade Pool seemed to have a talkative streak, speaking tirelessly.

Most of the advice given was to the capital, suggesting that with the Great Emperor in power, the Qishi Mansion would certainly not be open, and that the Holy City should remain in seclusion for cultivation.

When Shen Du asked why she was advising him, the fairy spread her hands, cracked her wrists, counted, and then said helplessly, "Brother Dao, before you, there have been hundreds of fellow Daoists who wanted to use the teleportation array to go to the Qishi Mansion in Zhongzhou."

"However!"

"After they went there, they came back looking completely lost."

"The main reason is that the Qishi Mansion won't open its doors. They don't believe it and want to force the Qishi Mansion to open the Ancient Star Road with their strength, but unfortunately, their strength is insufficient, so it's useless!"

Shen Du's lips twitched slightly.

He finally understood why the fairies of this sacred Jade Pool kept advising him.

It turns out there was already a precedent to learn from.

If he goes again, in the eyes of this fairy, he will be a follower of her teachings.

The problem is that, apart from the five-colored altar of the Central Plains Qishi Mansion that opened the ancient starry road for the human race, the capital city has never thought of any other way to reach the stars.

Using my true form might attract the attention of certain individuals.

Although I didn't sense any malice at the time, I was full of curiosity.

Seeing that the gods remained silent, the fairy was overjoyed; it seemed that her words had worked.
