Little did he know that Mingyue's words were like a sharp sword, stabbing fiercely into his chest.

This seemed to hurt him more than Ye Qiu's previous words, and he seemed to have suffered a huge blow in his heart.

He originally wanted to show off in front of the goddess, but he didn't expect that he was the only clown.

"Shame, a great shame..."

"Ye Qiu, I can't stand with you."

With a rage for revenge hidden in his heart, Xiao Yan was determined to make Ye Qiu pay for today's humiliation no matter what.

"Humph, don't think you can turn the world upside down just because you've been invited by the Great Elder."

No matter what, he just believed that Ye Qiu was just lucky. It just so happened that the Great Elder was in a good mood today and wanted to meet the person who ascended from the lower world.

There are countless people like this who have ascended to heaven in the Butian Pavilion. It is not a strange thing at all.

Beyond the sky, there is a tall building sitting above the clouds, as high as the clouds, majestic and majestic, as if it can pick stars.

Facing the sea of ​​stars and overlooking the world, it is full of domineering.

This is the Zhaixing Tower, the most sacred place in the Butian Pavilion, and the place where the Butian Pavilion has been passed down for eternity.

On the top floor of the Star-Picking Tower, there lived a white-haired old man. He had never set foot outside of the Star-Picking Tower for millions of years.

There are even rumors outside that he is dead, and can be said to be a living fossil.

If he gets angry, the entire nine heavens and ten earths will tremble. His deterrent power is unimaginable.

Ye Qiu stood at the entrance of Zhaixing Tower, looking at the tall building in front of him, and his heart was extremely shocked.

Looking up at the runes flowing between the floors and the air surrounding them, Ye Qiu could imagine what kind of people could live there.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath, Ye Qiu felt a pressure rising in his heart. After all, he was still too weak now.

It seems that I have to improve my strength to this level as soon as possible so that I can stand shoulder to shoulder with the giants in the world.

Otherwise, once his disciples go to the upper realm, without this ability, it will be difficult for Ye Qiu to protect them.

This is what Ye Qiu wants to do most at the moment. Coincidentally, now that he has entered the Butian Pavilion, he can rest for a while.

After settling down, he would retreat for a while to see if he could make any more breakthroughs. He would also take some time to go down to the human world to visit his beloved disciple.

I don’t know what the situation in the underworld is now. When Ye Qiu left, he had a vague premonition that an even more terrifying disaster would break out in the underworld.

Therefore, time is very tight and Ye Qiu must stabilize as soon as possible.

"Go up, the Great Elder is waiting for you up there."

Standing at the door, Qi Heng did not go in, but just motioned Ye Qiu to go in.

Ye Qiu nodded, said nothing, and walked slowly into the Zhaixing Tower with a calm demeanor.

As soon as he entered the hall, all of a sudden... Ye Qiu could feel hundreds of eyes looking at him at the same time, and his inner alertness was aroused for a moment.

"It is worthy of being the most sacred forbidden area of ​​the Butian Pavilion. There are so many powerful people hidden here."

Ye Qiu was secretly surprised. These hundreds of auras were more terrifying than each other and full of oppression.

But as for how terrifying the background of Butian Pavilion is, what outsiders see is just the tip of the iceberg.

As soon as he entered the hall, an extremely ethereal voice came, saying: "Ye Qiu, go up the stairs on the left, the Great Elder is waiting for you on the top floor."

Ye Qiu turned around and took a look, and vaguely saw an old man in gray sitting on the compass hovering in the air.

He didn't even open his eyes, but he could clearly feel Ye Qiu's presence.

Hearing his reminder, Ye Qiu followed his instructions and slowly walked up the stairs.

This journey was not long, but in Ye Qiu's heart, it felt like a year.

While going upstairs, his mind was full of wild thoughts, trying to guess what Meng Tianzheng wanted to say to him.

After walking for a long time, Ye Qiu finally saw the end. On the top floor, a big door was placed in front of Ye Qiu.

He did not push the door open because he could already sense an extremely terrifying aura behind this door.

"Child, come in."

Ye Qiu was about to knock on the door when a voice suddenly came from inside.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Qiu withdrew his hand that was about to knock on the door and gently pushed the door open.

The moment the door was opened, a ray of light shone out instantly. Ye Qiu's eyes flashed, and he saw a white-haired old man sitting there in the dim void.

He looked very old, obviously...his life was running out and his body was starting to fail, hence his behavior.

He has lived too long, already beyond the limits of his body, and he has been able to hold on until now entirely due to his strong willpower.

"Ye Qiu, meet the Great Elder."

Taking a step forward, Ye Qiu bowed respectfully and greeted the old man who was sitting in the void space. He slowly opened his eyes and smiled.

His eyes seemed to be able to see through all the darkness in the world, and nothing could escape his eyes.

With just one glance, Ye Qiu felt as if his inner thoughts were completely seen through.

He took a deep breath. He was too strong! Ye Qiu had never seen such a terrifying existence. The only one who could rival him was probably the Lord of the Forbidden Zone who was trapped in the Forbidden Zone at the beginning, right?

Just looking at the humble Ye Qiu, Meng Tianzheng smiled slightly, revealing a gratified smile.

“With the blood species! Haha… Not bad, not bad. Throughout the ages, so many talented people have been unable to break this death calamity. I didn’t expect that you actually found a way out.”

"It seems that you also had a strange fate with the immortals."

After hearing this, Ye Qiu was shocked.

He could actually see the mysteries within his own body and could even immediately determine the method he was practicing.

This old guy is really extraordinary.

"I sense the aura of an old friend in you. I guess... this method was taught to you by him, right?"

Meng Tianzheng seemed to be hinting at something, and Ye Qiu was shocked, but he pretended to be calm on the surface.

He nodded and added, "That's right! I was fortunate enough to receive guidance from a senior."

He did not point out the name of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, because he himself did not know what the Lord of the Forbidden Zone's name was.

Too much time has passed, not only Ye Qiu doesn't know, even the Lord of the Forbidden Zone himself has forgotten his real name.

However, just because he doesn't remember doesn't mean Meng Tianzheng doesn't remember.

I only heard him say with a smile: "I didn't expect... the great Zhenwu Emperor who broke into the wide unmanned restricted area seven times and was unrivaled in the ages is still alive."

"Using the blood method? In this world, perhaps only he can think of such a way to break the impasse."

When Meng Tianzheng said this, Ye Qiu was instantly shocked, as if he had heard some shocking secret.

Zhenwu Emperor!

The lord of the restricted area who was trapped in the restricted area was actually the legendary Zhenwu Emperor?

This...how is it possible.

Ye Qiu was completely shocked. That was a ruthless man who was invincible at the beginning of the ages, a legendary figure who used martial arts to enter the Tao and opened up a new world with his fists. How could he end up in such an embarrassing situation?

"Great Elder, you are right, right? That senior is actually the legendary Zhenwu Emperor?"

Ye Qiu was shocked and asked again in disbelief.

Just hearing Meng Tianzheng say this name, it seemed as if the heaven and earth trembled. The cause and effect involved were too complicated.

The Star-Picking Tower shook violently as if it had been attacked by something.
