Shrouding the sky: Slashing the world of mortals with a sword, becoming the strongest empress

On the cliff, the cold wind from high altitude sent the blood away.

If the deeply cut earth and the broken head of the Wolf King were not still close by, the previous fight might have been erased by time.

Nan Xiao, dressed in blood-stained clothes, stood tall with clear eyes that could not be refused.

Xu Donglai tried his best to stand up. A hint of bitterness flashed across his beautiful and tender face: "Sister, please allow me not to tell you this, for fear that you will be desperate after knowing the truth."

He gently rubbed the jade bracelet on his wrist. Although it was covered in animal skin, it had a steady and noble demeanor.

"Bettor, why bet? Why bet?"

"Zhongzhou Yuhua Divine Dynasty, Nanling Demon Emperor Palace, who else is there?"

"Everyone in Xuanmang Ancient City, including the three-foot blue sky and the two-story red building, are all chess pieces?"

Nan Xiao wiped his sword carelessly, but asked questions one after another, getting straight to the crux of the problem.

Her eyes were locked on Xu Donglai's body. Although her body was relaxed, she was ready to attack at any time.

"Sister, don't embarrass me, otherwise I wouldn't mind killing you -"

Xu Donglai was not satisfied with Nan Xiao's assertiveness, his fox eyes narrowed slightly, and there was an obvious threat in his words.

Nan Xiao raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "Three seconds."

Seeing Xu Donglai hastily covering up his gaffe, Nan Xiao spoke again to make Xu Donglai's cover-up come to nothing.

"You no longer have divine power, and - that forbidden weapon has only one last chance. Previously you were hesitant to use the forbidden weapon. In addition to being reluctant to part with it, you were more unsure, right? From the time you sacrificed the jade bracelet to the green It will take at least three seconds for Yu Xuying to appear. I believe you have a backup plan, but do you really want to try your luck with me? I dare to stand here and chat with you slowly because I dare to fight. You are worth thousands Wan, is it worth taking a gamble like me, a gambler with nothing?"

Nan Xiao's voice is clear and soft, making people feel like they are taking a breath of spring breeze.

But Xu Donglai didn't think so.

He was still young and not very smart, so he was quickly dazzled by Nan Xiao.

"Sister, you win."

Xu Donglai told everything he had "stolenly" heard.

"Today's Xuanmang Ancient City has been sealed for many years. Powerful sages used their great powers to form a boundary with the eight thousand miles of Nanling. It is difficult for ordinary gates to enter."

"I heard what my third uncle said that some of the most powerful people in the Demon Emperor's Palace, the Divine Dynasty, and the Western Desert Buddhist Country are on the verge of the end of their lifespan and want to seek the method of immortality. As the storage place of the Wheel of Life, the secret realm of Lunhai can be regarded as a destiny. Therefore, they wanted to replay the chess game and use the starting wheel sea scrolls of various Taoist scriptures as firewood to explore the potential of several imperial sutra wheel sea scrolls in a narrow world by raising gu. …”

"Now that I think about it, it seems that my third uncle deliberately let me eavesdrop. In this case, the Xu family's "Emperor Sutra" has been involved. But I should not be the only one. After all, I am only a semi-finished product..."

"In addition to the "Emperor Sutra" mastered by the royal family members of the Yuhua Dynasty and the Xu family, monks from the country of Mount Xumi in the Western Desert also brought the "Buddhist Sutra". The founder of the Sutra was also a great emperor, more powerful than the Yuhua Emperor It will take a long time, and the research on the road to immortality is more inclined to faith. However, some people think that there are two seas of suffering in the past and the future in the secret realm of the Wheel and Sea. Therefore, the monks who have always been detached have already taken advantage of the trend. I guess that inheriting the Buddhist scripture wheel The Buddha of Umi Juan is hidden in the ancient city of Xuanmang!"

"In addition to the Feathered Emperor Sutra and the Buddhist Sutra, there is also the Demon Emperor Sutra from the Demon Emperor Palace."

"The Demon Emperor, the supreme power of millions of years ago, transformed from a weak white rabbit into a dragon against the will of heaven, and finally achieved the ultimate fruition. Therefore, the "Demon Emperor Sutra" has the extraordinary power to turn decay into magic. This is also the reason why the Divine Dynasty and the Buddhist Kingdom are betting against the Demon Emperor's Palace. They both hope to find a new path to immortality with the help of each other's Great Emperor's scriptures. Of course, there may also be some selfish motives. Who do they want to prove? The Great Emperor's scriptures are the strongest in the Lunhai Secret Realm."

Nan Xiao didn't interrupt, she was more like a listener.     Only when Xu Donglai went off topic did he speak back.

"How to verify who is the strongest? Why do the most powerful people pay attention to those with low cultivation levels?"

Nan Xiao asked again, she didn't understand why the black dragon flying in the sky would condescend to the ants on the ground.

"I also asked my third uncle about this. It is precisely because they have reached the highest level that they cannot find a new path. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. The more mortal a person is, the more sensitive their first perception of the Dharma is."

Xu Donglai explained while continuing to unfold the picture of despair for Nan Xiao.

"The reason why Xuanmang Ancient City and Nanling Eight Thousand Miles are completely isolated from the world is that no one, no matter the divine dynasty, the Buddhist kingdom, or the Demon Emperor's Palace, dares to risk the sect's inheritance being leaked. . But in order to find a way out, they can only use chess pieces to verify and deduce the wheel and sea method. We are all chess pieces. In the end, after the chess players get everything they want, they will destroy the chess game. Except for a few people , all traces will eventually be erased."

Nan Xiao's eyes were serious, and she felt that she had accidentally entered a cold pool.

The still water flows deep, and the foul turbidity rises up.

"Sister, are you desperate? Do you regret knowing all this?"

Xu Donglai had a bitter smile on his lips. He himself could not guarantee whether he, a half-assed person who had become a god, would survive to the end.

"Which god was worshiped by the Blue Wolf God when he sacrificed it? The great being of the Demon Emperor's Palace? Or another bettor?"

Nan Xiao's topic suddenly changed, and she remembered the terrifying mountain of corpses in the deep mountains and grasslands.

Xu Donglai, who had always been eloquent and knew everything, suddenly got stuck. After scratching his head for a while, he whispered his guess.

"It should be related to the ancient races in the Eastern Wasteland or the Northern Plains. It is said that some ancient races have also produced ancient emperors at the level of the Supreme Dao. Even if they are not, they are still sages. I guess they may also come here to play chess..."

Nan Xiao frowned. The news she heard today was so shocking that it even made her despair.

But soon, Nan Xiao recovered and said: "If the ancient tribes from Zhongzhou Yuhua Divine Dynasty, West Desert Buddhist Kingdom, Nanling Demon Emperor Palace, Donghuang and Beiyuan come here to place bets, then they will definitely lay down their respective inheritances." ? And if the battle is limited to departmental successors, there will be no universal understanding. Since you want to raise Gu, it is natural to be inclusive and all-encompassing..."

As he spoke, Nan Xiao's eyes became brighter and brighter, with a strong fighting spirit.

She suppressed her excitement and asked confidently: "Does this mean that ordinary cultivators can also obtain emperor-level scriptures through luck or fighting?"

Xu Donglai didn't expect that Nan Xiao's mind would be so sharp, but the words had been spoken, so naturally he wouldn't hide them any more. He simply broke the jar and nodded directly.

"I saved your life twice. In return, I want to learn the Wheel and Sea Scroll of "The Sutra of the Feathered Emperor"!"

Nan Xiao's words were loud and shocking.

The chiselled meaning in words can sharpen stone and make gold shine.

Xu Donglai was speechless.

The mountains and forests were silent for a while.

There are golden eagles circling high in the sky, sending the sun setting to the west.
