The Heaven-shattering: Holding the Jade Disc of Creation

Chapter 227: Ancient inheritance, the secret of immortality, the trace of the emperor

Beiyuan Luotian Wasteland
It is a desolate grassland covered with wild grass. It is located in the northeast of Beiyuan. It is seldom populated and no one has penetrated into it for tens of thousands of years.

Here, there are packs of wild wolves, and your ears can be heard howling on every moonlit night.

The bright moon was hanging high in the sky, and in the distance a wolf was howling at the moon. A giant silver-white wolf, perhaps dozens of feet tall, was breathing in the moonlight and roaring towards the sky.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the void, and a figure surrounded by chaotic energy walked towards it.

He took a step forward, the sky and the earth lost their color, time and space stopped, the scenery in front of him changed, and a Gobi desert appeared in front of him.

In the eyes of Daotong of Creation, the Gobi Desert is completely different from the outside world. A sacred lake is located deep in the Gobi Desert, where mist is lingering and colorful smoke is rising, which is gorgeous and dazzling. It is a rare pure land.

Divine light gathered at Zhang Shuo's fingertips, and the golden divine power shone brightly. Under the influence of the divine power, the surrounding environment became chaotic.

Irregular ripples appeared in space, the essence of heaven and earth was in chaos, even the laws of heaven and earth were in disarray, everything in heaven and earth was in disorder, and all things were in chaos.

The Gobi Desert seemed to be moved by this divine power and revealed its true appearance.

The influence of the special laws was lifted, and the pure land of the Gobi Desert was exposed. Zhang Shuo took a step forward and came to the side of the sacred lake.

As if sensing the visitor, a crane cried out loudly, spread its wings, split the sky, rushed up from a cliff, turned into a ray of fairy light, and landed beside the lake.

“I didn’t expect that it was the descendant of Wu Shi who controlled Wang Teng. It was really unexpected, but also reasonable.”

The crane's eyes were calm and his tone was even. He was neither angry nor disappointed, and his attitude was very gentle.

Ever since the last time Wang Teng tried to obtain the Ancient Emperor's Weapon through the trial, it knew about the grudge between the two, so it was not surprised to see Zhang Shuo coming.

"I came here for the Taoist soldiers of Emperor Luan Gu." Zhang Shuo did not hide his purpose and directly stated it.

Upon hearing this, Xianhe looked at the divine power at Zhang Shuo's fingertips, the divine energy that went against the will of heaven and earth. That was the manifestation of practicing the "Emperor's Scripture of Chaos" to the extreme. In terms of understanding the ancient heritage alone, Zhang Shuo had surpassed Wang Teng.

"It seems that you have also practiced the Ancient Emperor Scripture. Although I don't know how you did it, practicing multiple supreme inheritances at the same time, but you do have the qualifications to participate in the trial. Please follow me!"

The crane spread its wings and flew towards the sacred lake.

Zhang Shuo followed closely behind, stepping on the Taoist patterns and walking in the air.

Arriving at the center of the sacred lake, the crane's wings cast divine clouds onto the lake surface, fluorescent dots dotted the water, and ripples appeared. The light from the lake surface gathered into a crystal clear light gate, and the crane and the man entered directly into it.

Passing through the light gate, what comes into view is a vast and magnificent underground palace. On the huge stone wall is a mural that is hundreds of feet high and thousands of feet long. Zhang Shuo and Xianhe stand in front of the mural, like two ants standing under a giant dragon, looking up.

"This underground palace is the tomb of the Great Emperor Luan Gu, and it is also the test site for the Great Emperor's inheritance. Today is the last day to open it. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait a thousand years before it can be opened again."

The crane pointed its wing tip at the mural and explained, “This mural depicts the life of the great emperor and is his life’s memories.”

Zhang Shuo looked at the magnificent mural, which depicted a heroic young man who grew up since childhood, fought with various geniuses, conquered the road to the emperor, fought bloody battles with seven geniuses on the emperor's road, was defeated in all battles, his relatives, friends, and teachers died tragically, he struggled to survive in a desperate situation, formed a demon fetus after many defeats, went crazy, and went against the will of heaven to prove his truth.

Later, he dominated the universe, entered the forbidden area and fought a bloody battle with the Supreme. He escaped unscathed at the cost of the broken Emperor's Talisman. Later, he lived in seclusion in Beiyuan, built the Emperor's Tomb, left behind his inheritance, and disappeared.

After seeing this, Zhang Shuo asked curiously: "Xianhe, was Emperor Luangu really buried in the Emperor's Tomb in his later years? Did he not try to conquer the Immortal Road?"

Xianhe shook his head and explained, "I don't know either, but the emperor was not in the emperor's tomb in his later years. The emperor's tomb only has inheritance, not the emperor's remains."

"The corpse is not in the emperor's tomb. Could it be that he really went to fight in the immortal world?" Zhang Shuo murmured to himself.

Led by the fairy crane, Zhang Shuo came to a huge golden stone door. The stone door emitted a golden glow, distorting the surrounding space. That was the extreme pressure from the Emperor Luan Gu.

Xianhe pointed at the talisman wheel at the core of the stone gate and said to Zhang Shuo, "If you want to enter the trial ground and obtain the emperor's weapon, you need to carve nine emperor characters in the talisman wheel with the understanding of the ancient heritage. As long as the understanding contained in the emperor characters meets the requirements, the stone gate will open."

After hearing the explanation, a golden ball of light condensed in Zhang Shuo's hand. He began to chant the Ancient Emperor's Scripture. A force that went against the laws of heaven and earth spread out. Thousands of Dao marks emerged in the light ball, evolving into countless runes. The Dao took shape, and the runes gathered into nine glittering characters for "Emperor", which flew towards the stone gate and were imprinted on the talisman wheel.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, the golden stone gate flickered with light, and nine Chinese characters for "emperor" merged into the talisman wheel. Countless golden lines spread out from the talisman wheel and spread across the entire stone gate.

"rumble……"

A crack appeared in the stone gate, emitting a golden light, which took Zhang Shuo in.

After a while, Zhang Shuo came to a blank world with nothing in it. The space was a misty world full of faint light, but there were no buildings, no sky or earth.

Under the influence of special laws, he stood on the chaotic and misty light fog, keeping his body stable.

"when……"

In the misty world, an inexplicable wave swept across Zhang Shuo's body, as if trying to detect Zhang Shuo's situation, but with the existence of the Jade Disc of Creation, the wave was directly blocked outside the body and could not take any effect.

It seemed that the desired information was not obtained, causing waves in the space to sweep towards Zhang Shuo again and again, but to no avail.

Zhang Shuo had no choice but to actively emit his own aura and contact his own energy with the fluctuations, thus completing the first step of the trial.

"Buzz!"

After sensing Zhang Shuo's aura, the laws of the misty world began to condense, a tall and majestic figure appeared, and burst out with saintly cultivation.

"boom!"

As soon as this figure appeared, he launched a fierce attack towards Zhang Shuo. The demonic flames surged, and the golden divine axe chopped down, with a golden axe light that cut through the sky and the earth coming towards him.

Zhang Shuo's eyes flickered, his golden blood boiled, the true meaning of the Six Paths of Reincarnation burst out, his Immortal Fist was swung out, and his invincible fist intent broke through the sky.

"Boom!"

The axe blade was shattered by the Immortal Divine Fist, and the hot blood penetrated his body. He stepped on the Dao patterns, entered the time realm, came in front of the figure, and delivered a blow that shattered the Qiong Yu, hitting the opponent's chest hard.

The true meaning of reincarnation dissolves the divine power, the violent divine power penetrates the flesh, the hot blood burns the body, and instantly turns the opponent into blood mist.

The dazzling immortal golden light disturbed the blood mist, and a glazed sword flew out from the center of the eyebrows, destroying the soul in the blood mist and successfully killing a young supreme.

"Buzz..."

But then, two figures walked out of the void again, their blood surging, their divine power resonating, forming a special united force, sharing their cultivation, coordinating their fighting power, and rushing towards Zhang Shuo.

"Zheng!"

A Chaos Sword Box appeared between Zhang Shuo's eyebrows, and a spatial fairy sword flew out. Time is supreme, space is king. With one swing of the sword, the void was torn apart, the layers of space were shattered, and countless spatial fragments formed sharp sword beams, slashing towards the two figures.

The sharp sword beams pierced through the void, and countless sword qi carried the fragments of space, tearing through the opponent's defense and destroying their bodies with the power of cutting through everything.

The next moment, three figures appeared. They all had the same breath and divine power. Their fighting power was superimposed again, and they started a fierce battle with Zhang Shuo.

Yin and Yang were in disorder, the four evil beasts were roaring, the five elements were restraining each other, the Nilong was going crazy, and Zhang Shuo used the ancient avenue of chaos to display his magical powers and continuously killed these people who were being tested.

As they were defeated, their numbers continued to increase, until seven figures appeared at the same time, seven stars aligned, their seven bodies were of one mind, their qi was harmonious, and the laws of the Dao resonated. Their combined might was earth-shaking, and the terrifying pressure surged in like a tide.

Zhang Shuo was in the middle of it, standing still. He took a step forward, and golden divine light surrounded him. Countless golden spots flickered in the misty space. These were the remnants of his divine power from the previous battle.

He formed a seal with one hand, and the vibration of the holy law spread. The sky was filled with light spots, evolving into the chaotic ancient divine law. Thousands of great divine chains of laws evolved, covering the seven of them. "All spirits become the way, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges!"

Relying on his own understanding of Taoism, Zhang Shuo improved the ancient secret arts in his own way.

For a moment, in the confused world, thousands of spiritual lights appeared at the same time, and the aura of countless galaxies turned into the laws of Tao. The fluctuations of the eight people's divine power were assimilated by the laws of rebellion, transformed into the original spiritual light, and gathered in Zhang Shuo's hands.

"The Secret Art of Chaos—Eternal Exile!"

The original spiritual light turned into Taoist patterns in the void, and countless patterns merged into the misty world. The space was disordered, and the existence within the field of vision was upside down and distorted. Countless folds appeared in the void, stretching endlessly, causing the ten directions to extinguish.

Countless dimensional death zones appeared in the twisted and disordered layers of space. The lost dimension swallowed up the seven figures. The dimensional death zones collided and twisted with each other, forming a terrifying space explosion. The endless space storm tore them into pieces.

After killing seven people, no new tests appeared. From the depths of the misty world, a golden avenue spread out and came in front of Zhang Shuo.

Without hesitation, Zhang Shuo stepped onto the golden light.

In an instant, the sky and the earth spun, the space changed, and they arrived at a magnificent and vast ancient palace.

In front of Zhang Shuo, there was an ancient altar on a high platform. The aura of the ancient emperor permeated the air, and an ancient battle axe floated quietly on the altar.

The ancient battle axe is simple and natural, exuding a cold and supreme breath. That incomparably sharp aura seems to be able to create the world, cut the universe, destroy the heavens, and cut off all paths.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Shuo subconsciously activated the "Emperor's Scripture of Chaos", and his body emanated the aura of the great way that disrupted heaven and earth, which directly caused the battle axe on the altar to resonate.

"Shh!"

The ancient battle axe made a slight sound, emitted a golden glow, and turned into a Taoist talisman, which flew to Zhang Shuo's hand by itself, calm and gentle.

Zhang Shuo used his divine power and divine consciousness to refine the imperial weapon and leave his own mark on the ancient battle axe.

The moment Zhang Shuo's spiritual consciousness came into contact with the imperial weapon, complex and mysterious information entered his mind.

"The complete "Ancient Chaos Emperor Scripture", and the method of making the Ancient Chaos Emperor Talisman. The Ancient Chaos Emperor Talisman! Oh my god, I'm going to make a fortune now!"

Zhang Shuo showed a look of delight, the Chaos Emperor Talisman was also very extraordinary, and was one of the most powerful life-saving items in the world of Shrouding the Sky.

You have to know that the Emperor Luangu dared to go to the restricted area to fight a bloody battle with the Supreme because he relied on the Luangu Emperor Talisman to die in his place and would not fall. In the original book, the broken Luangu Emperor Talisman blocked the attack of the Immortal Sky Sword for Xiaosong and others.

At that time, the Immortal Sky Sword was close to an immortal weapon, and its power was terrifying. Even the old man chopping wood could barely block one of the swords with the help of the Chaos Green Lotus, but he was still chopped to the point of vomiting blood and suffered serious injuries.

From this we can see how powerful the Emperor Luan Gu's talisman is. The fighting ability of the Emperor Luan Gu has always been doubted, but his ability to save his life has never been questioned. Even the most capable Immortal Heavenly Venerable, when it comes to saving his life, dare not say that he is better than the Emperor Luan Gu.

"Hmm... this Chaos Ancient Emperor Talisman requires quite a lot of divine objects! The Primordial Life Stone, the Mysterious Yellow Stone, the Mysterious Origin Gold Essence...

Wow, no wonder the Great Emperor Luangu only refined one imperial talisman. With such horrific consumption, it seems that the collection of an average great emperor or ancient king would only be enough to refine a few.

This does not include the failure case, otherwise it would require even more consumption. "

After briefly understanding the refining materials of the Chaos Ancient Emperor Talisman, Zhang Shuo couldn't help but be amazed. Even if ordinary people got the refining method, they didn't have the wealth to refine it.

Collecting his thoughts, just as Zhang Shuo was about to activate the Ancient Battle Axe to help him leave here, he suddenly looked towards the altar.

"This space is very strange. The entire ancient temple is empty, with only this altar. Could it be that it only contains an imperial weapon and inheritance?"

Zhang Shuo stroked his chin, put away his imperial weapon and walked towards the platform.

He came to the altar, stared at the ancient altar in front of him, and tried to activate the Dao Eye of Creation to see through the reality of the altar.

It wouldn't matter if I didn't investigate, but this investigation actually revealed something.

Zhang Shuo was surprised to find that there were foreign objects in the altar. He transformed his chaotic divine power into space patterns, invaded the depths of the altar and took out the foreign objects.

A moment later, a bloody severed arm was taken out from the altar by Zhang Shuo.

The broken arm was covered with cracks, with strands of blood stained on the skin. The palm was clenched tightly, with a bleeding wound at the base of the palm, revealing a terrifying murderous intent, as if the arm was resisting something. The broken arm was smooth and flat, exuding a strange aura.

Zhang Shuo looked at the arm and felt heavy in his heart. He frowned slightly and observed the strange aura at the broken end.

"brush!"

As soon as the strange aura touched Zhang Shuo's mind, it spread rapidly like black ink dropping into clear water.

"Buzz!"

At this critical moment, nine colors of light flashed between Zhang Shuo's eyebrows, and the supreme light of the Tao purified all the weirdness.

For a moment, nine-colored light enveloped the broken arm, and the sacred and supreme avenue dispelled the weirdness.

Soon, everything returned to calm, the broken arm no longer emitted a strange aura, even the murderous intent of the emperor on it was eliminated, and the body glowed with a crystal luster.

Zhang Shuo took the severed arm and carefully opened his clenched palm, revealing a piece of Dao Jie gold.

After taking down the piece of Daojie gold, Zhang Shuo examined it carefully, but found nothing unusual.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Shuo sacrificed the Jade Disc of Creation, and nine-colored light enveloped the Dao Jie Gold, exploring the mysteries contained in it.

After sweeping across the Dao Jie gold, the nine-colored light entered Zhang Shuo's sea of ​​consciousness with a message.

It was a special star field coordinate and a will.

"The road to becoming an immortal... the mythical emperor... the great terror..."

After receiving this information completely, Zhang Shuo carefully studied the function of this Daojie gold.

It was discovered that there were special void Dao patterns engraved inside the Daojie gold, which could be used for long-distance transmission, and the destination was the altar in front of them.

“The Great Emperor Luan Gu left no remains. Combined with his last words, this shows that he did not choose to die before his death, but instead sought a path to immortality and fight.

But the result is definitely a fall, but this fall is not ordinary. Could it be that the Emperor is hiding in a path to immortality, and the Great Emperor Luan Gu found this path and encountered a great horror and fell there. "

Zhang Shuo took out the map of immortal treasures and, based on the star field coordinates he had obtained, searched for the location of the immortal path left by Emperor Luan Gu.

"Hiss!" After confirming the location coordinates, Zhang Shuo couldn't help but take a breath, his pupils constricted, and his heart was surging.

“I didn’t expect this place to be - Ziwei!” Looking at the ancient Ziwei star on the fairy map, Zhang Shuo was silent. He thought of the heavenly heritage left by Guanghan Palace and the ruins of Changsheng Tianzun in Changsheng Taoist Temple. All of these were related to that mythological era.

"Alas! If it's just the Supreme, it's nothing, but the Immortal Emperor and the Emperor are really difficult to deal with. The Immortal Emperor and the Beginningless Emperor can contain him, but what about the Emperor?"

Zhang Shuo recalled the records in the original novel. As the second person to walk on the immortal road in the mortal world, Emperor Zun’s ambition in the mythological era was shattered by the Immortal Emperor.

Even if he hadn't died, his condition wouldn't be much better. But no one knew to what extent the Emperor had recovered and how far he had gone on the road to immortality in the mortal world.

"Forget it. I don't want to think too much about it. At worst, I won't go to Ziwei Ancient Star until I'm sure of the result."

Zhang Shuo patted his head, put away his complicated thoughts, and urged the Ancient Battle Axe to leave this space.
