"Damn it, this Demonic Desire Sect deserves to be destroyed!"
In this vast world, the Celestial Hound was consumed by rage, wishing he could annihilate the Demon Desire Sect.
In the process of enslaving the ruler, Xiaotianquan witnessed what true cruelty was.
The evil that the Demonic Desire Sect inflicts on those who ascend is visible to the naked eye.
They endlessly tormented the ascendants, keeping the creatures in the prison in a state of despair and fear.
even.
Countless living beings among them have long since become numb to this miserable existence.
Compared to the domain prison held by the Demon Desire Sect, the beings of the Desolate Region seem exceptionally fortunate.
but--
Although Lu Tao and the others never witnessed the evil that Tianyu Sect inflicted on the Desolate Region, it is true that they slaughtered the ancestors of the Desolate Region and used them to feed the Myriad Soul Banner and the Demon Soul Flag.
Their cruelty towards the Ascended, though unseen, is no less than that of the Demonic Desire Sect, and is even more heinous.
Similarly, the same applies to other forces and races in Yulongtian.
Throughout the entire Jade Dragon Heaven, no major power is friendly to ascendants; such beings have long since vanished in the long course of history.
"Only after truly experiencing the Domain Prison can one understand how deep the hatred between the Divine Dynasty and the Heavenly Court is."
Lu Tao's expression was also extremely complicated.
For countless years, this hatred, which has affected the entire divine realm, has lasted for countless years, impacting countless races and beings.
It is no exaggeration to say that no living being could remain uninvolved in this war.
Even the Dao Palace.
Those members of theirs were once beings belonging to both the Heavenly Court and the Divine Dynasty.
Only later did they slowly extricate themselves from this vortex.
Even so, the Dao Palace is still in the midst of this war, and has even become an entity that is hostile to the Heavenly Court and the Divine Dynasty.
Neither the Heavenly Court nor the Divine Dynasty would allow the Dao Palace to reap the benefits.
"Mo Hao, how much do you know about the Demon Desire Sect?"
Lu Tao summoned Mo Hao, intending to take action against the Demon Desire Sect and wanting to assess their strength first.
Mo Hao said, "The Demon Desire Sect is quite powerful, ranking among the top ten in the entire Jade Dragon Heaven. It has seven God Emperors, one in the late stage of God Emperor, two in the middle stage of God Emperor, and four in the early stage of God Emperor."
"Seven God Emperors..."
Lu Tao stroked his chin, lost in thought.
This number is indeed considerable. If an ordinary God-Emperor at the peak of his power were to face the Demon Desire Sect, he probably wouldn't even have the slightest intention to make a move.
But for Lu Tao, apart from that late-stage God Emperor who posed a slight threat, he didn't take the other mid-stage or early-stage God Emperors seriously.
and.
Even if that God Emperor was in the late stage, Lu Tao was confident he could kill him.
Lu Tao continued, "Do you know which Great Dao each of the seven Divine Emperors of the Demon Desire Sect cultivates?"
Mo Hao hesitated and said, "My lord, I only know that two of the God Emperors cultivated the Dao of Water and Fire in their early stages. I don't know anything about the other God Emperors."
"The God Emperor of Yulong Heaven keeps his cultivation path so secret?"
Lu Tao found it strange.
If Mo Hao came from an ordinary background or was a rogue cultivator, and did not understand the Great Dao of other God Emperors, Lu Tao would not have any problem with it.
But the key point is that Mo Hao is a disciple of the Tianyu Sect.
He comes from the most powerful force in Yulongtian.
As a result, even he was unaware of the great paths cultivated by the many god emperors of the Demon Desire Sect.
This was quite unexpected for him.
Mo Hao said awkwardly, "My lord, firstly, I have only been a God Emperor for a little over a hundred million years and have not had much contact with other God Emperors; secondly, it is because Yulong Heaven has always been relatively peaceful, and there are very few disputes involving God Emperors. Many God Emperors have never even made a move."
"I see!"
Lu Tao nodded silently, "It seems I still have to go to Qingyou Pavilion."
Qingyou Pavilion is a place to relieve worries; I might as well go and buy some information.
actually.
With the prayer statue in Lu Tao's possession, it wouldn't be difficult for him to find out the Great Dao cultivated by the God Emperor of the Demon Desire Sect.
After all, even at the God Emperor level, those who are most proficient in the Great Dao are those that correspond to common talents, such as the Five Elements, the Seven Emotions and Six Desires, wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and so on.
One attempt after another will eventually lead to the final answer.
but.
If he could purchase this information with divine stones, Lu Tao wouldn't mind saving a little faith points.
Furthermore, since the purpose of going to Qingyou Pavilion is not only to purchase information about the God Emperor of the Demon Desire Sect, but also to learn about the various forces and races of Yulong Heaven.
Without further ado, Lu Tao made his prayers and headed towards Qingyou Pavilion.
——
"Sect Master Di, it's been a long time."
Lu Tao arrived at Qingyou Pavilion and went straight to the pavilion master, Di Qing.
Di Qing looked at Lu Tao with some surprise and smiled gently, "It has indeed been a long time. I was worried that Fellow Daoist Xu might have entered the Secret Realm of Rules and fallen victim to the spies of the Heavenly Court. Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Xu is unharmed."
When Di Qing spoke of the Heavenly Court spies, his expression was filled with hatred, as if he had forgotten his own identity as a Heavenly Court spy.
If Lu Tao hadn't known his true identity, he wouldn't have had the slightest suspicion.
As for the concerns that Di Qing mentioned...
Lu Tao naturally didn't believe it at all.
Given his identity as a Heavenly Court spy, encountering a potential prodigy like him who buys all the information about the secret realms of the rules, Di Qing probably wished he had died at the hands of a 'Heavenly Court spy' long ago.
Lu Tao didn't care about these things and shook his head with a smile, "Fortunately, I didn't enter the Secret Realm of Rules, otherwise, Pavilion Master Di probably would never have seen me again."
Di Qing was speechless. "Fellow Daoist Xu is blessed with great fortune. A mere spy from the Heavenly Court would not pose any threat to Fellow Daoist Xu."
Lu Tao just smiled and didn't say anything more.
Lu Tao stated his purpose directly, "Sect Master Di, I have come to purchase some information about the God Emperor."
"God Emperor?"
Upon hearing this, Di Qing's expression turned serious.
A powerhouse like the God Emperor is arguably the strongest in Jade Dragon Heaven. The value of such information is immeasurable; every piece of information could make Qingyou Pavilion a fortune.
However, high returns also mean high risks.
If he were to offend the God Emperor as a result, it would bring considerable trouble to Qingyou Pavilion.
Di Qing asked solemnly, "What kind of information is Fellow Daoist Xu specifically purchasing?"
"Xu wants to buy the entire Jade Dragon Heaven, including all the specific information about the Great Dao cultivated by all the God Emperors."
Upon hearing Lu Tao's words, Di Qing was taken aback.
All the Great Dao news of the God Emperors?
The cause and effect were so great that even with Di Qing's immense strength, he was hesitant to respond.
Generally speaking, the purpose of buying information about the God Emperor's cultivation path is to deal with him. Only by understanding him thoroughly can one effectively target him.
But this fellow Daoist Xu Le in front of me is only at the God King realm.
Although he desperately wanted the God Emperor of Yulongtian to run into trouble, he didn't believe that Xu Le, who was only a mere God King, could do it.
For a moment, Di Qing was stunned. He stared blankly at Lu Tao and hesitated before asking, "May I ask, Fellow Daoist Xu, what do you intend to do with this information?"
He had to ask.
If the information he spreads causes Xu Le to offend a large number of God Emperors, ultimately implicating Qingyou Pavilion, then his years of lurking will be in vain.
Lu Tao asked with a smile, "Sect Master Di, when purchasing information from Qingyou Pavilion, are there any regulations regarding the purpose of the purchased information?"
"No, there isn't, it's just..."
Di Qing was helpless. After some hesitation, he finally said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, this concerns the God Emperors, and my Qingyou Pavilion cannot afford to be careless. Even if you were buying information about one or two, or even a few, God Emperors, it wouldn't be a problem. But you want information about the Great Dao of all the God Emperors... this..."
Di Qing's face was filled with bitterness.
In the entire Jade Dragon Heaven, there are over a hundred God Emperors. Offending a few of them wouldn't be a big problem, but if it were all of them, that would be a huge mess.
They might end up getting themselves into trouble.
How could he dare to be careless in such a losing proposition?
Lu Tao laughed and said, "Don't worry, Pavilion Master Di. I am only a God King. I dare not offend the God Emperor."
"I see..."
Upon hearing this, Di Qing still hesitated.
But considering the cultivation level of this fellow Daoist Xu Le, it seems there's not much to worry about.
It's indeed highly unlikely that the God-King could do anything to anger all the God-Emperors.
But he was a little worried that Xu Le wasn't buying it for himself.
Just like the rule-based secret realm message purchased a month ago, it was purchased for the sake of other beings.
What if Xu Le is backed by other God Emperors?
"However, no matter who is behind Xu Le, they should not have the guts to offend all the God Emperors of Yulongtian. Besides... if this person is an undercover agent of the Dao Palace who wants to deal with the God Emperors of Yulongtian, it would not be a bad thing for our Heavenly Court."
at this time.
In Di Qing's mind, he had already begun to guess Lu Tao's true identity.
Whether it's other spies in the Heavenly Court or spies in the Dao Palace, as long as they are targeting the Jade Emperor, it's a good thing for the Heavenly Court.
Thinking this, Di Qing no longer hesitated and nodded, saying, "Alright, I hope Fellow Daoist Xu will not offend the God Emperor. The God Emperor is too powerful for a mere God King like you to provoke."
"nature!"
Lu Tao nodded with a smile.
Di Qing couldn't figure out what Lu Tao was thinking, so he took out a jade slip, recorded the Dao information of many God Emperors, and then said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, this information is not cheap."
"Please name your price, Pavilion Master Di."
Di Qing said, "There are a total of 163 God Emperors in Yulong Heaven. Among them, there are eight who have reached the Perfect God Emperor stage, 22 who are in the late stage of God Emperor, 53 who are in the middle stage of God Emperor, and the rest are in the early stage of God Emperor. Their Great Dao information..."
At this point, Di Qing suddenly asked, "Fellow Daoist Xu, will you be paying for this information with divine stones?"
Lu Tao nodded and said, "That's right, it's still a divine stone."
"..."
Di Qing's lips twitched, feeling quite helpless. In the end, he still calculated and said, "Let's value this information at one hundred million top-grade divine stones."
"One hundred million top-grade divine stones..."
This time, it was Lu Tao's turn to have his lips twitch.
The mere purchase of information about the Great Dao of 163 God Emperors is worth 100 million top-grade divine stones. This price... is simply outrageous.
The last time I purchased detailed information on over 400 rule-based secret realms, it only cost me 6 million high-grade divine stones.
The difference between a superior-grade divine stone and a top-grade divine stone is a full tenfold.
This is evident.
When it comes to powerful figures like God Emperors, even seemingly insignificant information seems incredibly valuable.
100 million top-grade divine stones, if converted into divine veins...
If we calculate that 10 million mid-grade divine stones can be exchanged for one low-grade divine vein, then 100 million top-grade divine stones can be exchanged for a full 1,000 low-grade divine veins.
"Tsk tsk..."
After a simple conversion, Lu Tao couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
This price is truly terrifying.
However, Lu Tao only felt a slight pang of heartache before agreeing to the deal.
He has too many divine stones now.
If he didn't have too many divine stones when he first left the desolate region, then after he enslaved all fifty-seven domain prison guards, the number of divine stones he obtained had already increased several times over.
This is still because those who were stationed there did not plunder the divine stones in the prison.
Lu Tao took out a storage ring, put 100 billion low-grade divine stones into it, and then handed it to Di Qing, saying, "Sect Master Di, please count them."
"good!"
Di Qing was slightly excited.
Such a large transaction had not occurred in Qingyou Pavilion for a very long time.
He quickly finished counting and, after confirming that everything was correct, handed the jade slip containing information about the Great Dao of the God Emperor to Lu Tao.
Lu Tao took the jade slip, channeled his spiritual power into it, and memorized all the information.
At the same time, Lu Tao also wished to see if the information inside the jade slip was true.
After receiving a positive answer, Lu Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
After completing the transaction, both of them smiled knowingly.
then.
Lu Tao then said, "Sect Master Di, I would also like to purchase some information about the Demon Desire Sect."
"The Demonic Desire Gate?"
Di Qing was slightly taken aback, then frowned slightly and asked, "What specific information does Fellow Daoist Xu wish to purchase?"
He already had a vague sense of unease.
First they bought all the information about the Great Dao of the God Emperors, and then they bought information about the Demon Desire Sect...
The intention is all too obvious.
All news about the Demon Desire Sect!
Lu Tao laughed and said, "I need all the information about the Demon Desire Sect's location, its protective formations, important locations, its vassals, the location of the God Emperor, and so on."
Glug!
Upon hearing this, Di Qing's Adam's apple bobbed almost unconsciously. He stared at Lu Tao in horror, speechless for a long time.
Even now, he still doesn't understand what this fellow Daoist Xu Le is planning—he actually intends to take action against the Demon Desire Sect!
But……
Isn't that just too unbelievable?
Sensing the divine king aura emanating from Lu Tao, he was quite certain that this cultivation level was probably fake.
"Could it be... that so-called Heavenly Court spy who caused so many tragedies in the secret realms?"
Di Qing couldn't help but let his thoughts wander.
But he quickly dismissed the idea, saying, "It's probably impossible. I heard that the expert's strength is at most at the peak of the God Emperor realm, not at the God Emperor realm. If that's the case, how could he dare to plot against the Demon Desire Sect?"
"So... Xu Le is not in cahoots with the Heavenly Court spies."
Di Qing ultimately made this guess.
But this speculation still shocked him.
The Demon Desire Sect possesses a late-stage God Emperor level expert, yet some creature dares to plot against them.
Di Qing didn't know whether this fellow Daoist Xu Le was truly confident or simply courting death.
"Wait, his purpose is so obvious, he's not afraid I'll guess it at all. Isn't he afraid I'll betray him to the Demon Desire Sect? Or... does he know my true identity?"
The thought stirred up a storm in Di Qing's mind.
You need to know.
His identity was concealed by a sage, not only by the sages of Yulongtian, but also by the third elder of Tianyu Sect, who had cultivated the Great Dao of Cause and Effect to its extreme.
What gives this person the right to do this?
"Unless, he is also a spy of the Heavenly Court in Yulongtian, or even... his true identity and strength are more powerful and terrifying than mine."
"Could it be... that I've been lurking in Yulongtian for countless years just to serve him?"
Thinking of this, Di Qing felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.
But then he felt something was off.
If that were the case, there would be no reason for the Heavenly Court not to inform him in advance.
Thinking about all this, Di Qing rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
"However, regardless of this person's identity, his scheming against the Demon Desire Sect will only be a good thing for our Heavenly Court, not a bad thing."
Thinking this way, Di Qing felt somewhat at ease.
Di Qing took a deep breath before saying, "Fellow Daoist Xu, if you want to buy all the information about the Demon Desire Sect, the price... won't be much less than the previous transaction."
"It's alright!"
"good!"
Di Qing didn't say much. He copied down all the information he had collected over the years about the Demon Desire Sect and handed it to Lu Tao.
Only after Lu Tao verified the price did he reveal the final price.
"Sixty million top-grade divine stones!"
"good!"
Lu Tao readily paid for the divine stone.
That's how it is.
In a short period of time, Lu Tao got everything he wanted.
After the transaction was completed, Lu Tao prepared to leave.
As they parted, Lu Tao suddenly took out a teleportation array plate and handed it to Di Qing, saying, "Sect Master Di, please keep this teleportation array safe. If I need to purchase any information in the future, I will discuss it directly through communication. At that time, you can use this array plate to send the jade slip to me."
"……good!"
Di Qing agreed and then watched Lu Tao leave.
"I wonder who this person is. The Heavenly Court doesn't have such power lurking in Jade Dragon Heaven. However... no matter who he is, dealing with the Demon Desire Sect, which has a late-stage God Emperor, will not be an easy task."
Only after Xu Le's figure completely disappeared from his sight did Di Qing sigh inwardly, "Alas, my undercover identity has most likely been exposed. I need to be prepared to evacuate at any time."
