The Inherently Evil Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon

The Inherently Evil Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon

Graveyard.

Qin Sheng and Ye Fan sat facing each other, sighing in unison.

"I'll study this half of an Emperor Weapon first and see if I can use it to leave this place."

Ye Fan nodded and began cultivating.

Within his Sea of Bitterness, the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy remained quiet, showing no signs of movement.

Qin Sheng carefully infused it with divine sense, magical power, and life essence. The devil canopy reacted slightly, greatly surprising him.

"It seems there are no markings left by anyone else on the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy?"

An Emperor Weapon was another form of continuation of a Great Emperor's life, a vessel for their Great Dao.

The Emperor Weapons of supreme powers such as Yaochi and the Jiang Family were nearly impossible for outsiders to seize. Without their cooperation, even if outsiders obtained their Emperor Weapons, they would find them difficult to activate.

That was because those supreme powers had, generation after generation, left indelible life imprints or other marks upon their Emperor Weapons.

Even while the divine spirit within an Emperor Weapon slumbered, it would instinctively acknowledge only them, not outsiders.

Bloodline, inheritance... Emperor Weapons would safeguard all of this for their deceased masters.

If Yaochi's Emperor Weapon were lost, they could use certain methods to summon it back from afar.

Thus, Emperor Weapons could be considered exclusive weapons.

Qin Sheng had already prepared himself for the possibility that the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy bore indelible marks left behind by the Ruthless lineage, preventing him from activating it.

Yet unexpectedly, the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy was remarkably clean.

Thinking of the Swallowing Heaven Devil Jar in Tu Tian's possession, Qin Sheng fell into thought.

"The Ruthless lineage definitely knows that the jar's body is in Tu Tian's hands. If they haven't called it back, it's probably not because they don't want to, but because they can't."

"The Swallowing Heaven Devil Jar is undoubtedly special. Refined from Ruthless's corpse, with her Primordial Spirit hidden within it—other than herself, who could truly control it?"

"Leaving behind indelible marks is simply impossible..." Qin Sheng sighed inwardly.

"This Emperor Weapon truly combines two extremes. Its threshold for use is extremely low, with no requirements for bloodline or inheritance."

"Yet truly possessing it and awakening its divine spirit like other Emperor Weapons is also almost impossible."

Still, this was good news for Qin Sheng.

If the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy had borne indelible marks left behind by the Ruthless lineage, then if he took the canopy out, he would likely end up making a wedding dress for someone else at the first opportunity.

Now, he no longer had to worry about that.

"Immortal, something isn't right here."

At that moment, Ye Fan spoke, frowning.

"The spiritual essence here is too thin, almost nonexistent, yet another special substance fills the world."

"Another special substance?" Qin Sheng asked doubtfully.

"When I was cultivating just now, my magical power barely increased, but my physical body was nourished," Ye Fan said.

"I can't explain it clearly for the moment. You'll understand once you experience it yourself."

Hearing this, Qin Sheng circulated the demonic art. The next second, he sensed the special substance Ye Fan had mentioned.

In his perception, tiny red specks of light floated around them. Once absorbed, they settled into his body and slightly increased its strength.

This was a substance that purely enhanced the physical body. It had no effect on divine sense or magical power.

As Qin Sheng continued absorbing the red substance, his organs and bones also received deep nourishment.

Heaven Devouring Demonic Art, dissolve all things!

Qin Sheng further activated the profound principles of the demonic art. The red substance was transformed, nourishing the five divine reservoirs and pushing him toward the completion of the Dao Palace realm.

After a while, Qin Sheng nodded and said,

"It is indeed as you said, but the ancient scripture I cultivate is rather special. All kinds of energy and matter can be used by me."

"What a miraculous ancient scripture." Ye Fan was somewhat astonished.

When it came to devouring and utilizing all kinds of power, the Dao Scripture was certainly inferior to the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art.

"This counts as an opportunity as well. You possess the Sacred Physique, and there aren't many things that can increase the strength of your physical body."

Qin Sheng said, "This means your potential and foundation are growing, and your base is becoming increasingly solid."

Ye Fan nodded, agreeing with Qin Sheng's words.

For cultivators in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, the Primordial Spirit was most important, the physical body came second, and magical power came third.

Situations where one exhausted all magical power in battle basically never occurred.

"What do you think this special substance is?" he asked curiously.

Qin Sheng thought for a moment and looked toward the blood-red ground.

"It seems to be flowing out from the earth. It's very likely related to this soil."

No matter how Qin Sheng looked at it, this soil resembled blood mud.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Qin Sheng.

"Yezi, this soil can release mysterious substances. Do you think the gray mist outside might be the same?"

"That's very possible!" Ye Fan's eyes lit up.

The two tried it and discovered that cultivating within the gray mist allowed them to absorb a substance capable of strengthening their divine sense.

Qin Sheng's brow glowed. Within his sea of consciousness, his tiny Primordial Spirit was adorable and multicolored.

A large amount of spiritual substance was absorbed, causing the sea of spirit beneath his Primordial Spirit to ripple with multicolored waves, incomparably mystical.

Compared to his pitch-black Sea of Bitterness, Qin Sheng's Primordial Spirit was even more unusual.

"This truly is a wonderful place." Ye Fan was somewhat delighted.

Qin Sheng carefully sensed the speed of their progress and shook his head.

"Staying here is not a long-term solution."

Enhancing the physical body and Primordial Spirit was an extremely precious opportunity for ordinary people, but they had a broader sky waiting for them.

Ten days later, Qin Sheng held the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy in his hand and attempted to activate it.

A sudden change occurred.

A black vortex appeared on the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy. The vortex rotated silently. Qin Sheng and Ye Fan felt no suction, yet somehow...

That small black mound of earth was taken into the devil canopy!

Seeing this, Qin Sheng's heart nearly stopped.

Ruthless's grave had been destroyed?

What are you doing, Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy? Have you truly gone demonic?

Ye Fan was also badly startled. Though curious, neither of them had ever entertained any thoughts about the mound. They had been extremely honest.

Who could have known the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy would suddenly pull something like this?

An inherently evil Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon—I should personally...

"Immortal, there's something here."

After the black mound was sucked away, the scene beneath it was revealed.

There was no corpse. Only a white bloodstained garment had been buried below, a woman's garment.

"A cenotaph?" Ye Fan asked.

Qin Sheng took a deep breath. "Most likely."

Whom this bloodstained garment belonged to, he could figure out even using Ye Fan's toes.

"What about that pile of black earth?"

Qin Sheng glanced into his Sea of Bitterness, his expression becoming exceptionally vivid.

The black mound had been transferred into his Sea of Bitterness, with the Swallowing Heaven Devil Canopy resting atop it as before.

So the devil canopy had found its home uncomfortable and moved its old "furniture" inside?

After Qin Sheng told Ye Fan what had happened, the two stared at each other wordlessly.

After a long while, Ye Fan made a suggestion.

"How about we dig up some soil somewhere else and rebuild the grave?"

A good idea.

Since you, the "older brother," had said so, surely the "younger sister" would have no objections either.

The two were people of action. They quickly dug up some red earth and restored the graveyard to how it had originally been.

After doing all this, Qin Sheng wiped his forehead.

What a sin. Someone, please save us!

Another two months passed, yet Qin Sheng and Ye Fan still had not found a way out.

However, on this day, a fat Daoist appeared outside the Sacred Land Ruins.

He stared at the Sacred Land Ruins, his eyes shining brightly.

"This Daoist master has calculated with his fingers and found that this place is destined for me. The right time, the right place, the right person—wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"

"Amitabha... this Daoist master's good fortune has arrived!"
