"The fourth level of the Dao Palace, that's too fast. Even cheating can only happen this fast." Yun Hua sighed. In less than a year, he had already reached the fourth level of the Dao Palace.

Even the most talented individuals in the novel "Covering the Sky" would feel ashamed. Although it was fast, it was indeed to be expected. With the Dao Fruit of the Great Emperor, cultivation was like a Great Emperor rebuilding himself. Not only was it fast, but his foundation was also incredibly solid. He even created his own scriptures.

Just as Yunhua was feeling sentimental, they finally arrived at Fox Ridge Mountain, the location of the Ghost King Sect.

"Who dares to fly over my Ghost King Sect?"

Several Ghost King Sect disciples dressed in black stopped Yun Hua, looking at him warily. After all, while others flew by using magical artifacts, this person was riding a rainbow light, which made him seem extraordinary.

"Where is the Ghost King Sect Master? Yunhua requests an audience." Yunhua was too lazy to negotiate with these lackeys. The powerful sound waves sent several Ghost King Sect disciples flying and reached Fox Ridge Mountain, causing the entire mountain to tremble slightly.

"Who are you, and why are you causing trouble in my Ghost King Sect?" A moment later, a figure in emerald green riding a flower-shaped magical artifact arrived in front of Yun Hua.

"Yao'er, step back. I am Wanrenwang, the sect leader of the Ghost King Sect. May I ask what brings you to my Ghost King Sect?" Wanrenwang arrived with four holy envoys and shielded Biyao behind him.

"I am Yun Hua, an unknown rogue cultivator. I have come here for the second volume of the Heavenly Book and am willing to trade it for the first volume of the Heavenly Book."

"The second volume of the Heavenly Book is a secret of our sect. Although we can exchange it for the first volume, in order to give our sect an explanation, as long as you defeat our sect's Azure Dragon Envoy, everyone will be happy."

After a moment's thought, and with a tentative mindset, Wanren made his decision.

"Fine, as long as Lord Qinglong can withstand the next move, I'll consider myself defeated." Yun Hua didn't care; as a member of the Shrouding Heaven Clan, he was either fighting or on his way to a fight.

"Hmph! You're being far too arrogant. Watch me, Qinglong, defeat you." Qinglong was a fighter, and he couldn't tolerate being looked down upon like this.

"I'll only unleash one sword strike. Watch closely, Chaos Annihilation Sword Qi." Yun Hua sensed that Qinglong's level was only at the third level of the Dao Palace, which was not enough for Yun Hua, who was resident in the Eight Forbidden Zones.

He simply raised his sword fingers and casually slashed towards the Azure Dragon. A chaotic sword aura that stretched from the sky to the earth, carrying an extreme aura of destruction, tore a dark rift in the space.

The Chaos Annihilation Sword Qi, a forbidden domain that Yunhua comprehended under the killing intent of a quasi-emperor, a great killing technique recorded in the Yunhua Scripture, is being revealed for the first time in another world.

"Damn it, how can it be so strong? Even space can't withstand it and it's been torn apart." Qinglong was terrified. He felt that he couldn't withstand it and would be mercilessly killed. He was filled with a death wish.

"Qiankun Azure Light Ring, block it for me!" The Azure Dragon's expression twisted as he poured all his spiritual energy into the Qiankun Azure Light Ring, making a futile struggle.

Unfortunately, the azure light formed by his spiritual energy was extinguished like a bubble. He was in despair, as were Wanrenwang and the other holy envoys. They would not have been able to stop it either; they would have been instantly cleaved in two.

Just as Qinglong was awaiting his death, he discovered that the chaotic sword energy was merely hovering before him, not striking down. The mere sight of it hovering there was already terrifying.

"So, I've finally won?" Yunhua asked the Ghost King.

"Naturally, you have won. I agree to exchange the Heavenly Book." The Ghost King was somewhat speechless. With such a powerful sword aura right in front of him, what could he do if he disagreed?

Yunhua withdrew his sword energy, handed the first volume of the Heavenly Book to the Ghost King, took the second volume of the Heavenly Book from him, and without even looking at it, turned around and left, flying towards the Tongtian Jianmu.

"This person's cultivation is incredibly high; I'm afraid no one in the world can stop him. Alas! I wonder if activating the Four Spirits Blood Array or obtaining the power of Asura would be enough to defeat him." The Ghost King was somewhat disheartened.

Chapter Seven Jianmu

Yunhua casually flipped through the second volume of the Heavenly Book in his hand. Compared to the general outline of the first volume, the second volume was more detailed, providing a more detailed explanation of the path of cultivation.

With the blessing of the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit, he quickly and completely comprehended the contents of the Heavenly Book. At the same time, he used the contents to improve his own scripture, making it more complete and reasonable.

However, without the complete Heavenly Book, the benefits are not very great, since it is only a small world.

Yunhua's escape light was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, she had arrived.

After passing through a fog, a huge wooden wall appeared before them; in reality, the wooden wall was just the roots of a Jianmu tree.

Looking at the towering Jianmu tree that pierces the clouds, its trunk submerged in the misty clouds, its height impossible to determine.

The enormous branches burst through the clouds and soared straight into the sky. The trunk was hundreds of feet thick, like a pillar supporting the heavens. From a distance, it looked like a huge, majestic hill. It was hard to imagine that this was a tree that could grow to such a size.

Many of the branching trunks are tens of feet thick, and the leaves on them are larger than a room.

Upon closer inspection, one can see strange vine-like plants twining around the tree trunk, crisscrossing and intertwining. Their leaves are large, and at the tips of the branches and leaves bloom colorful flowers in red, yellow, orange, and purple, which are quite beautiful. A faint fragrance seems to waft in the wind.

Yunhua landed on the treetop and soon discovered a stone gate in the sea of ​​flowers.

The stone gate is five zhang high and three zhang wide, embedded in the tree trunk. It is surrounded by countless vines and flowers, leaving only the thick boulder in the middle with four large characters in ancient seal script carved on it: Heavenly Emperor's Treasury!

The stone gate to the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury is protected by a layer of restrictions, which are indeed unbreakable for the people of this world.

Unfortunately, with the blessing of the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit, the energy flow nodes of this restriction are as clear as reading on the palm of your hand.

Yunhua casually broke through several important energy nodes. With a huge sound of the restrictions collapsing, golden light pierced through Xuanming, seemingly trying to convey a message and attract something.

Yunhua knew exactly what was going on. This was a scheme devised by the person who left behind the Heavenly Emperor's Treasure Vault to lure the yellow bird guarding it.

"Calling himself the Heavenly Emperor is nothing but a charlatan." Yun Hua was speechless at this native of the small world who called himself Heaven and Earth.

If this person were in the world of "Covering the Sky," his later years would likely be bleak, and the Heaven and Earth Burial Pit would be his final resting place.

The last resort left by this person, the Yellow Bird, was nothing more than a casual suppression for Yunhua, and it was just another dish to be combined with the Black Water Serpent.

The moment the stone door opened, Yunhua slipped inside.

The stone gate behind them closed automatically.

"Screech~" Just as the stone gate closed, Yunhua heard a sharp cry.

It's likely that the yellow bird discovered its home had been raided!

Yunhua ignored the situation outside and looked around at the scene in the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury.

As the stone gate closed, the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury was plunged into darkness, but this dim environment did not hinder Yunhua's observation.

Under the scan of divine sense, the entire interior of the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury was imprinted in his mind.

The interior space was small and very simple. In the center of the vault, there was a faint, dim light, like a firefly in the night, not bright, but clear.

That glimmer of light first turned a light purple, then cyan, and then slowly turned into a deep green, constantly changing and shimmering with various colors, which was quite beautiful.

It was a wooden platform about half a person's height.

A round wooden pillar, about the thickness of a baby's arm, is driven into the ground, with a small platform about a foot in size at the top.

In the middle of the platform sits a rustic-looking wooden cup.

Upon closer inspection, it can be seen that the entire wooden platform and cup are completely connected together, and are integrated with the sacred tree underground.

"Is this the elixir of immortality?" Walking towards the wooden platform, Yunhua saw a transparent liquid in a three-inch wooden cup, with a small, crystal-clear transparent stone floating on the mysterious liquid.

Those faint rays of light emanated from this crystal.

"The elixir of immortality and the Heavenly Emperor's Nether Stone are quite interesting." Yun Hua could sense that the elixir of immortality contained a large amount of longevity substances, and the amount in this cup was almost comparable to the medicinal effects of the White Tiger Immortal Elixir in Yun Hua's body.

However, it is merely a substance for longevity; it does not have the effect of an elixir of immortality that could allow an emperor to live a second life. After all, the elixir of immortality was born after the fall of a Celestial King, and it contains the incomplete laws of the Celestial King.

Although the elixir of immortality cannot grant a second life, its effects are similar to those of the Polygonum multiflorum found in Kunlun, capable of making an aging emperor appear young again.

This Jianmu tree is quite extraordinary, as it can actually condense longevity substances. Yunhua was tempted and planned to take it away and plant it in Kunlun as his own Daoist temple.

"Boom!" Suddenly, a loud noise erupted from the entrance of the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury, causing the earth to shake and the entire space to tremble violently. Faintly, Yunhua could also hear the angry cries of yellow birds coming from outside.

It was clearly the Yellow Bird launching a fierce attack on the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury.

Yunhua ignored it and looked at the wooden platform. She saw that the imperial medicine on it was shaken. Just as the spiritual liquid was about to spill, the Heavenly Emperor Nether Stone raised a golden light screen to protect the platform and prevent the spiritual liquid from spilling.

The Heavenly Emperor's Nether Stone is a divine object obtained by the Heavenly Emperor from the Great Wilderness. It is the main ingredient for refining the elixir of immortality and can also stimulate the potential of living beings.

The so-called elixir of immortality is actually a combination of the immortality substance condensed from the Jianmu tree and the spiritual liquid condensed from the Heavenly Emperor's Nether Stone. It takes ten thousand years to condense even a small cup of it.

When the elixir of immortality is successfully refined, a strange phenomenon will occur. The previous elixirs of immortality were probably stolen and drunk by the Yellow Bird and the Black Water Serpent, which allowed them to break through the limits of life and have a lifespan of tens of thousands of years.

This is also why the Blackwater Serpent and the Yellow Bird are locked in a life-or-death struggle.

"Boom!" Just then, another violent impact rang out.

The entire Heavenly Emperor's Treasury trembled continuously, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

At the same time, a golden light shone from the dome of the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury.

A mysterious and distant sound rang out, like a mysterious chant from a sacred mountain, or the soft whisper of a lonely soul from the netherworld.

Large, golden characters appeared one after another in mid-air, illuminated by the golden light.

Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs... This is the content of the third volume of the Heavenly Book.

Yunhua made a note of it for the time being, then opened the stone door, intending to go out and deal with the yellow bird.

If we let it be destroyed, it might end up damaging the Jianmu tree that we really like.

As a divine bird of the nine heavens, the Yellow Bird's strength is unparalleled in this world, and there are very few beings that can threaten it.

The reason he guarded the elixir of immortality for so many years was not to keep a promise, but to enhance his own cultivation by taking the elixir.

Nearly 10,000 years ago, the Blackwater Serpent stole the elixir of immortality while the bird was out hunting. It was chased for thousands of miles by the Yellow Bird and finally escaped into the sea to save its life.

Now that the ten thousand-year period is almost over, another thief has entered the Heavenly Emperor's treasury. The thought that the elixir of immortality has been intercepted by someone else makes Huang Niao furious.

"Kacha~" The gate to the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury opened, and the yellow bird's eyes flashed with a fierce light as it watched the situation inside.

Immediately, a chaotic sword aura slashed out from it, carrying immense power, aiming to cut down the yellow bird.

"Screech~" The yellow bird was startled and spread its wings to fly high. With the flapping of its huge wings, it brought with it a violent wind blade that roared down.

Unfortunately, the wind blades that seemed capable of cutting through everything were nothing but empty bubbles in the face of the chaotic sword energy, and did not consume the sword energy at all.

The chaotic sword energy possessed an insatiable sword intent, carrying with it the chilling killing intent that Yunhua had gleaned from the quasi-emperor's killing intent.

The wind blades slashed towards the yellow bird, which was terrified. It sensed the approach of death and struggled to flap its wings, sending out numerous wind blades to block them, while simultaneously trying to turn and flee.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain. It had already been locked onto by the chaotic sword energy, and in just a moment, the chaotic sword energy was upon it.

Even the indestructible, metal-like feathers of the yellow bird could not stop the chaotic sword energy from cleaving it in two. With the yellow bird's last mournful cry, most of its body was severed.

Its body fell limply from the sky and was eventually collected by Yunhua, who planned to make it into a dish.

Chapter Eight: Buddhism and Taoism

After collecting the yellow bird's corpse, Yunhua looked at the Jianmu tree in front of him. He hadn't looked closely before and hadn't noticed that this Jianmu tree was actually the prototype of the World Tree nurtured by this small world.

Unfortunately, this world used a large amount of its own essence to nurture a large number of rare and exotic beasts in an attempt to upgrade the world to a middle-thousand world. In the end, it failed, but it left behind enough foundation.

Yunhua was even more delighted. Although this Jianmu tree was only the prototype of the World Tree, as long as it was brought back to the Shrouding the Heavens Great World, it might become a World Tree sapling after its laws and origins were replenished.

It should be noted that the original World Tree of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was felled by the Immortal King of another realm in the Immortal Ancient Era.

It is important to know that the World Tree can extract chaotic energy from outside the world, refine it into living matter, and increase the world's origin.

Thinking of this, Yunhua summoned the Divine Mark Purple Gold Pagoda, which contained ten percent of the Emperor's Dao Laws. The Divine Mark Purple Gold Pagoda grew taller in the air, instantly surpassing the height of the Jianmu tree.

The base of the tower was aligned with the Jianmu tree, and the powerful force of its pull uprooted the towering Jianmu tree completely, creating a tremendous roar as the fierce wind and falling earth and rocks blew.

Ultimately, it was taken into the Divine Mark Purple Gold Pagoda, leaving only a deep pit several kilometers deep and crisscrossing ravines in its place.

"It seems it's time to leave; I'm still missing two volumes of the Heavenly Book." Yun Hua's unbridled behavior was eventually discovered by the world consciousness of this minor world.

The entire world was rejecting Yunhua, and Yunhua felt as if she was about to be expelled from this world.

Tianyin Temple, built amidst towering mountains and ridges, is shrouded in clouds and mist, filled with the sounds of chanting and the glow of Buddha, truly a sacred Buddhist site.

The back mountain of Tianyin Temple is a secluded place, yet Yunhua sneaked in quietly, not because she wanted to do it stealthily.

The main issue is that the blank jade disc is a treasure of Tianyin Temple, involving their fundamental lineage. These bald monks are stubborn and inflexible; if we speak frankly, they will likely refuse.

Since he only intended to look at the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book and didn't plan to dig up the jade disc, it was naturally harmless.

At the edge of a cliff, a thin mist permeated the surroundings. This mist had the effect of isolating one's spiritual senses and also carried a hint of Buddhist teachings.

Yunhua naturally knew that the mist was derived from the wordless jade disc that recorded the fourth volume of the Heavenly Book. Sure enough, the further they went in, the more obvious the feeling became. Before long, the mist dissipated, and a huge wordless jade disc appeared on the edge of the cliff.

Yunhua looked at the jade disc and saw that it had no writing on it; it was just a flawless white disc that emitted a faint light.

Yunhua closed his eyes slightly, spread his divine sense, and released the aura of the Heavenly Book.

In an instant, the blank jade disc shone with golden light, like a golden sun, and the white mist was dispelled.

'Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs…'

The enormous golden characters gradually emerged on the blank jade wall, and the scriptures began to condense. The mysterious Daoist aura continued to spread. Fa Yunhua was immediately drawn into a deep state of enlightenment after just one glance.

Previous accumulation and insights surged forth like a spring, constantly intermingling and merging, and continuously sublimating in the process of understanding.

Golden light transformed into golden lotuses beneath his feet, which slowly rose one by one. A series of Buddhist chants resounded in the sky. In an instant, Yunhua, dressed in a white Taoist robe, stood in place, looking incredibly sacred.

"As expected of a heavenly book, it has actually allowed me to comprehend some of the essence of the Other Shore and Prajna." Yunhua was somewhat pleased. The Daoist essence of the Other Shore was too profound. Without the Gate to the Other Shore, it would probably be difficult to comprehend it.

The so-called other shore is not the other shore of the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm, but rather means transcending everything. In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, it refers to sacrificing oneself to achieve transcendence and attain great freedom.

As for Prajna, it refers to wisdom. For Yunhua, who has the blessing of the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit, it is just icing on the cake. After all, for him, enlightenment and awakening to the Dao are as simple as eating and drinking.

"I'd better get out of here quickly, such a commotion will definitely alert those bald monks." With that, Yunhua mounted his divine rainbow and flew towards Qingyun Mountain.
