"Fellow Daoist Xu!"
In the Jade Dragon Heaven, at the Qingyou Pavilion, Pavilion Master Di greeted Lu Tao with a smile and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, but deep in his eyes lay an intense and profound sense of awe.
Recently, Yulongtian has been in complete chaos.
Even Elder Fu of the Tianyu Sect no longer intervened to mediate the conflict between the three races, causing the friction between them to intensify and showing signs of a complete explosion.
certainly.
This is not the real reason why Di Qing respects Lu Tao.
The main reason is that of the thirteen top forces he sold to Lu Tao, twelve have been destroyed, and only the Demon Desire Sect still exists.
Even if they weren't wiped out, countless of their disciples had already died or been injured.
I heard he was killed by humans.
to this end.
The Demon Desire Sect Master and several elders have been frequently causing trouble for the human race lately, resulting in constant fighting among themselves.
Both sides suffered heavy losses.
The leader of the Demon Desire Sect almost got into a fight with a late-stage human god-emperor.
"I wonder who this Fellow Daoist Xu Le is. He has such power that he has caused chaos in the entire First Heaven."
Di Qing sighed inwardly.
He didn't know what methods Lu Tao had used to disrupt the entire Yulong Heaven, but he knew that Xu Le, the man before him, was definitely not as simple as he appeared on the surface.
otherwise--
How could someone with only the cultivation of a Divine Emperor possibly kill a Divine Emperor and destroy his power?
However, Di Qing was very happy.
Not only is Yulong Heaven in complete chaos now, but countless people have also died, including many God Emperors and God Kings. This is definitely good news for the Heavenly Court.
He will receive a great reward from the Heavenly Court if he sends this message back.
When they return to Heaven, they will surely be valued.
Therefore, when he saw Lu Tao reappear, he showed exceptional respect and awe.
pity.
Lu Tao was no longer as gentle with him as before.
Having seen through the true nature of the Heavenly Court, Lu Tao no longer held much of the respect he once had for this Heavenly Court spy lurking in the Divine Dynasty.
Of course, it wasn't outwardly revealed.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "Sect Master Di, it's been a long time. I'll have to trouble you again this time."
"Not at all, it's all what I should do."
Di Qing smiled broadly, showing not only great respect but also a hint of flattery.
Lu Tao didn't mind and got straight to the point: "Sect Master Di, the main reason for my visit is to find out the specific addresses of the major forces in Yulongtian, as well as their important locations."
Upon hearing this, Di Qing's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, please wait a moment, I'll prepare it for you right away."
As he spoke, Di Qing immediately began searching within his own world.
After compiling the information on the various forces that he had already collected, he recorded it all on a jade slip and handed it over with both hands: "Fellow Daoist Xu, this is all the information on the forces in Yulongtian. Please take a look."
"good!"
Lu Tao nodded slightly, glanced at it, and then put it away directly, smiling as he said, "Sect Master Di, this price..."
Di Qing waved his hand and said, "This information is worthless. Fellow Daoist Xu can just give me ten thousand low-grade divine stones."
Thank you!
Lu Tao was very satisfied. After easily completing the transaction, he got up to leave. Before leaving, Lu Tao gave a meaningful instruction: "By the way, Pavilion Master Di, do not spread this matter for the time being."
"Yes, I understand."
Di Qing bowed slightly as he saw Lu Tao out of Qingyou Pavilion, then muttered to himself, "Don't spread this around? Does that mean I can't report it back to the Heavenly Court?"
He was somewhat puzzled.
However, considering what had recently happened in Yulongtian, he followed Lu Tao's instructions and decided not to report the matter back to the Heavenly Court for the time being, in order to prevent spies from the Heavenly Court from betraying him and uncovering Xu Le's true identity.
"It seems that this Fellow Daoist Xu Le is going to take action against many of the top forces in Yulong Heaven. This is... a great achievement!"
Di Qing couldn't help but feel excited.
He eagerly awaited the day when Yulongtian would completely erupt into chaos.
at the same time.
Di Qing also gave instructions to the other members of Qingyou Pavilion to pay close attention to the situation in Yulongtian and to promptly report back the reactions and movements of the major forces.
Lu Tao paid no attention to Di Qing's actions. After leaving Qingyou Pavilion, he began to make prayers to one power after another, according to the records on the jade slip.
result……
To Lu Tao's dismay, the recent chaos in Yulongtian has led to many God Emperor forces frequently entering their respective treasure vaults to obtain healing elixirs, various divine artifacts, and materials.
In short, if he wanted to enter the treasuries of various powers and plunder resources as he did in the Heavenly Court, it would be easy for him to expose the matter.
"Fine, go ahead and kill them all now. I'll make my move once they've fought enough."
Lu Tao didn't care much. It was just the first level of heaven, and the worst level of heaven in the Heavenly Court at that. It didn't matter if he couldn't get their treasure trove for the time being.
After all, the treasure troves of forces like the Demon Desire Sect, the Crossing Karma Palace, and the Holy Soul Hall had long been emptied by Lu Tao.
Overall, there aren't actually that many that are still intact.
and.
Lu Tao had no intention of letting go of Tianyu Sect, the controller of Yulongtian.
Now that Elder Fu has been enslaved, Lu Tao can have Elder Fu bring him out of the Tianyu Sect's treasure vault even if he doesn't go in himself.
But after thinking it over, Lu Tao decided to go himself.
Buzz—
The portal opened, and Lu Tao instantly stepped into the Tianyu Sect's treasure vault.
"Tsk tsk, the Tianyu Sect's treasure trove is quite rich."
Lu Tao clicked his tongue in admiration. The Tianyu Sect's treasure trove was similar to that of the Nine Cauldrons Sect of the Brahma Heaven. Not only were their collections equally abundant, but they also contained treasures sealed by sages.
"Hurry up!"
Lu Tao summoned the disciples of the Immortal Sect and ordered them to act quickly.
In an instant.
Tens of thousands of disciples from the Immortal Sect mobilized together and, in a short time, almost emptied the entire treasure trove of resources and materials.
Only the few treasures that the sage had sealed off remained untouched for the time being.
Lu Tao gathered his disciples into his cave dwelling, and with a thought, he commanded through the enslavement mark, "Old Fu, come to the treasure vault!"
"Treasure vault? Which treasure vault?"
Elder Fu on the other side was a little confused. He received this order inexplicably and had no idea where to go. But suddenly, an idea struck him.
With a mixture of surprise and uncertainty, he speculated, "Could it be the treasure vault of my Tianyu Sect?"
If that were really the case, it would be terrifying.
Elder Fu was somewhat surprised and uncertain. With mixed feelings, he arrived in front of the Tianyu Sect's treasure vault. As he performed various hand seals, the array in front of the treasure vault opened, and he went inside.
"Hiss..."
Upon entering the treasure vault, Elder Fu couldn't help but gasp.
It was only because he saw his master, Lu Tao, not only appear silently in the treasure vault, but also nearly empty the entire treasure vault of the Tianyu Sect.
This shocked him deeply, leaving him completely dumbfounded.
The Tianyu Sect's treasure vault is incredibly well-hidden, and its protective measures are extremely powerful. Although it cannot compare to the Heavenly Curtain Array of Yulongtian, it is not far behind.
As a result, his master, under the perception of him, a late-stage God Emperor... no, to be precise, should be considered a powerhouse close to the perfection of God Emperor, actually entered the treasure vault as if it were empty.
He was completely unaware of any movement.
What an incredible and audacious method!
Even a saint couldn't do that, right?
Lu Tao ignored Elder Fu's shock, glanced at him, and instructed, "I called you in so that you would not allow your disciples to enter the treasure vault for the next period of time."
"Yes, Master!"
Elder Fu came to his senses and bowed respectfully to accept the order.
Lu Tao looked at the treasures that had been sealed by the sage and asked impatiently, "Old Fu, can you take these treasures?"
Since it was left by the Sage at Tianyu Sect, it's impossible that the Sage would come back to retrieve it when he needed it.
As the temporary leader of the Tianyu Sect, Elder Fu should have the right to use these things.
Lu Tao let him in for this reason.
otherwise.
He didn't want to reveal to Elder Fu that he could freely enter and leave the treasure vault, even though Elder Fu was already his servant and couldn't betray him.
Elder Fu immediately replied, "It is possible, but once it is taken, the Sage will know and will send a message to inquire in a timely manner."
Too.
These things left behind by the sage are all extraordinary. If the number one power in Yulongtian has to use these treasures left behind by the sage to deal with the affairs of Yulongtian, it shows how dire the situation in Yulongtian is.
As the only saint in Yulongtian, it was inevitable that he would send a message to inquire.
Lu Tao raised an eyebrow and said, "Is it just an inquiry? Could there be some kind of telepathic connection? Or could you return?"
"No, it's just an inquiry; this old servant can handle it."
Elder Fu also knew Lu Tao's plan and directly offered his advice, saying that even if these things were taken away, the Sage would not notice anything amiss.
"Okay, take it out quickly!"
Lu Tao was overjoyed and immediately put Elder Fu to work.
The items left behind by the sage of Tianyu Sect are all extraordinary. Among them are high-grade imperial artifacts, which are also Dao artifacts, containing Dao power comparable to that of a perfected God Emperor.
There were other items, such as a small piece of enlightenment stone, a clump of purple-gold blood, and a few jade slips.
"Yes, Master!"
Elder Fu took out his elder token, and with a simple swipe, opened a gap in the restriction, taking out all the treasures inside.
Lu Tao accepted the treasures, carefully examined them, and was very satisfied.
As for that purplish-gold blood, Lu Tao sensed that it seemed to be dragon blood, but it was also somewhat different.
He couldn't help but ask, "Old Fu, what kind of bloodline is this?"
Elder Fu said, "Reporting to the Lord, this is the bloodline of the Heavenly Dragon."
"So this is the Heavenly Dragon Bloodline!"
Lu Tao suddenly realized.
He already knew from the records of the Heavenly Court that the Heavenly Dragons were actually true dragons, but because their bloodline and aptitude reached the Saint rank, they were fundamentally different from true dragons.
certainly.
There are very few naturally born dragons.
The so-called Heavenly Dragons that have appeared in the God Realm since ancient times were all born with Emperor-grade aptitude. Through tempering their true essence, they gradually improved their aptitude to Saint-grade, thus becoming Heavenly Dragons.
However, among the celestial dragons of the divine realm... very few can become Dragon Saints.
Basically, before they even grow up, they are hunted and killed by other Dao Saints who extract their Heavenly Dragon bloodline to improve their own aptitude or to give to their descendants.
In the current realm of gods, there are relatively few Dragon Saints compared to Saints, Demon Saints, and Monster Saints; there are only two.
The same applies to the Phoenix Clan.
They are all in the Dao Palace!
Because the number of Dao Saints in the Dragon and Phoenix clans is relatively small, they are unable to protect either the Divine Dynasty or the Dragon and Phoenix clans within the Heavenly Court.
As for the fate of the Dragon and Phoenix clans, they can only rely on their own efforts and leave it to fate.
Let alone protecting ordinary dragons and phoenixes, it cannot even protect celestial dragons and phoenixes.
If this were not the case, the number of Dao Saints in the Dragon and Phoenix clans would certainly be much greater.
"A Saint-grade quality is like a Heavenly Dragon..."
Lu Tao looked thoughtful.
All the true dragons within the Immortal Sect have reached the upper-grade Emperor rank, and are only one step away from the Saint rank.
actually--
According to the tempering of the true essence by these true dragons of the Immortal Sect, if their initial aptitude is Emperor-grade, or even higher-grade Emperor-grade, and they are tempered from the low level all the way to the current perfect God Emperor level, they can transform into Heavenly Dragons.
However, their changes in aptitude are different from those of other true dragons.
Even if the essence can improve their aptitude, each improvement will be overwritten after taking the Divine Transformation Pill.
The effect of refining their essence is not so significant.
In fact, the same applies to other disciples of the Immortal Sect, including Lu Tao.
In the lower realm.
When Lu Tao first started refining his true essence, he even improved by one or two minor grades.
Later, when they ascended to the God Realm and refined their true essence, the improvement was no longer so obvious. The main reason is that the higher the realm, the less obvious the improvement.
Moreover, every two major realms can improve one's aptitude by one major grade, so he didn't seem to care much about the slight improvement from True Marrow Refining.
"Once I advance to the God Emperor level, our Immortal Sect will have thousands more Heavenly Dragons, and the number of Immortal Sect disciples may even surpass that of Saint-grade aptitude."
Lu Tao still had high expectations for the Immortal Sect after his ascension to God Emperor.
Without giving it any further thought, he instructed Elder Fu, "You deal with your sect leader and don't let any other disciples enter the treasure vault for the time being."
"Yes, Master!"
Elder Fu bowed and accepted the order, then watched as Lu Tao took a light step forward, disappearing as if he had merged into space.
Forget about spatial fluctuations; even with his near-perfect God Emperor cultivation, he couldn't tell how Lu Tao disappeared.
"What kind of ability is this? Even the Great Dao of Space seems unable to achieve something like this, right?"
Elder Fu was having some doubts about life. Then, he subconsciously walked to the spot where Lu Tao had disappeared and touched the space, but found nothing.
"Master's abilities are truly terrifying!"
Elder Fu sighed slightly, then felt a pang of bitterness in his heart.
I feel even more gloomy about my future.
Buzz—
Just then, Elder Fu received a message from the Sage, inquiring about the matter of opening the barrier.
Elder Fu told him directly about the chaotic situation in Yulongtian.
The Sage of Tianyu Sect remained silent for a long time before replying, "Wait, I will arrange for the Third Elder to return as soon as possible."
He didn't say much.
Clearly, the purpose was to bring back the Third Elder to investigate Lu Tao and the Divine Platform Secret Realm through cause and effect, and to deal with the chaotic situation in Yulongtian.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Elder Fu put away the communication device and then informed Lu Tao about the matter through the enslavement mark.
Upon hearing this, Lu Tao stroked his chin and said, "It seems that the Third Elder will be back even sooner."
The Third Elder originally said it would be within six months, but Elder Fu guessed it would be around three months. Now, it might be back in one or two months.
But Lu Tao didn't care; he even looked forward to his early return.
"Recent actions have made me increasingly feel that I am the one who set the stage."
Lu Tao muttered something to himself and then slipped into the Anywhere Door again.
Upon arriving at Yuanzaitian, Lu Tao released Mu Xuan, Luo Xian, and the others, instructing them to collect information rapidly throughout the ten heavens of the entire Divine Dynasty at the same time.
He planned to complete the looting of the entire Divine Dynasty's treasury as soon as possible.
