Ancient Godly Emperor

The empress nodded silently. This was the Divine Continent, where the strong were respected, while the weak were prey to the strong. She was too impulsive just now, and after Zhao Feng's reminder, she was now clear-headed.    

    

Although treasures were good, one had to be alive to enjoy them.    

    

In the past, they traveled through the Divine Continent and teamed up with some of the Martial Sovereign s to explore the Secret Realm.    

    

At first, everyone was kind and friendly, but the moment they discovered the treasure, someone instantly turned on them.    

    

That kind of scheming, scheming, and crafty attitude, would make people understand how terrifying those old and immortal Martial Sovereign were.    

    

It was for this reason that the Empress no longer went out to travel, but stayed in the Palace of the Maiden Kingdom, giving pointers to the younger generation as she pursued the path of martial dao.    

    

Don't worry, although our Son of God hasn't known each other for long, we can see that this Son of God is very amiable, and has a relationship with my disciple Xie Yu. Zhao Feng looked at the silent Empress and comforted her.    

    

The empress shook her head and smiled wryly. "I was impulsive. Thank you very much. Actually, this trip was not in vain."    

    

"That's the best thing that can happen to you." Zhao Feng said in gratitude.    

    

He was afraid that the empress would feel indignant and do something to infuriate Lau Yu. If that happened, he would be in deep trouble.    

    

People die for money, birds die for food. If you want to preserve your life in the Divine Continent, sometimes you still have to restrain yourself. It's not your own treasure, so don't even think about it.    

    

At this moment, inside the pagoda.    

    

Lau Yu also noticed that Zhao Feng and the empress did not follow them. He immediately frowned, but he was smarter than others and quickly understood what was going on. He could not help but laugh.    

    

"This Zhao Feng sure knows how to conduct himself. No wonder he was able to rely on a rogue cultivator to cultivate to such a level. In terms of conduct, he is indeed quite good." Lau Yu thought secretly.    

    

First of all, without Zhao Feng telling him, he wouldn't have known about this relic.    

    

Furthermore, Zhao Feng did not enter the pagoda with him and give him the best treasure.    

    

Unless Lau Yu was one of those despicable and shameless people, otherwise, if he didn't give Zhao Feng enough benefits, even he himself wouldn't be able to live with these two huge favors. In the future, he would have his inner demons.    

    

"Forget it, other than those two Divine Artifact s, I will let you choose the other treasures." Lau Yu walked straight to the top of the eighteenth floor.    

    

He knew that Zeng Ming had placed the two Divine Artifact at the top of the pagoda. Each level of the pagoda was strictly defined, and as Lau Yu walked, he discovered that there was a special level for refining pellets. There was a special level for placing formation books at the top, and there was also a level for refining weapons.    

    

Zeng Ming was a puppet master, not only did he have great achievements in the path of puppets, but he also had extensive knowledge in other areas, such as refining, alchemy, formations, runes, and even some of the secret techniques of the evil demonic path.    

    

Of course, the reason why he studied these external objects was to lay the foundation for the Dao of puppets.    

    

The path of puppets seemed simple on the outside, but it encompassed everything within.    

    

There were just some simple symbols on these puppets, but they had to do with the mysteries of heaven and earth, thus triggering an unimaginable power.    

    

As for the various precious runes and Talisman s carved on the puppet, they were even more difficult.    

    

Its extensive research was also a matter that it was very proud of. Moreover, it had quite a bit of achievements in various fields.    

    

However, it was precisely because he was too distracted and too distracted that his lifespan fell short, causing him to regret too much.    

    

If he had been able to study this technique after becoming a War God and possessing an endless lifespan, perhaps his accomplishments would have been countless times greater than they were now.    

    

Perhaps, at that time, Zeng Ming might not just be a grandmaster of a generation, but instead the person with the highest achievements in the way of Divine Continent and puppets.    

    

Unfortunately, there were no 'ifs'. This was enough for Lau Yu to be proud of. He needed to grasp the time better and devote himself to martial cultivation. He couldn't slack off in the slightest.    

    

"It's here!"    

    

When he finally reached the 18th floor, Lau Yu's eyes lit up. He saw that the shelves here were filled with all kinds of books and also many notes.    

    

However, there were very few puppet weapons. Lau Yu had seen this in the notebook and understood it already.    

    

This was because the two puppet Divine Artifact that Zeng Ming refined had consumed all of his lifetime's accumulation of knowledge.    

    

Even the puppets that were left behind to test these people were of inferior quality.    

    

On the other hand, giving a puppet the power of a Spiritual Wisdom, although simple, would consume a huge amount of energy. It was not a small expense, and only then would the puppet give up.    

    

Furthermore, Zeng Ming had sold all the precious puppets he had made back then in exchange for the materials needed to refine Divine Artifact.    

    

Divine Artifact. This was something that could only be refined by experts above the Martial God Realm.    

    

As for Zeng Ming, the Grandmaster Puppet, he was able to refine it with the cultivation of the Martial Saint, and it was even two of them.    

    

All of these things were thanks to Zeng Ming, who was stronger than some Martial Gods, for giving him the possibility of refining Divine Artifact.    

    

Zeng Ming also knew that people were greedy, so he did not reveal the news of him refining the Divine Artifact. After refining the two Divine Artifact, he left them here.    

    

Lau Yu walked past the rows of bookshelves and arrived in front of a wall.    

    

On the wall hung a painting of a bald, white-bearded old man with a fair complexion.    

    

The old man's appearance looked somewhat comical, but his deep gaze seemed to contain countless stars in the sky, mysterious and unfathomable, like a black hole that was about to suck a person in.    

    

"Greetings, senior!" Glancing deeply at the old man in the painting, Lau Yu respectfully bowed.    

    

This person was Grandmaster Zeng Ming of the Ancient Era Puppet Dao.    

    

After bowing, Lau Yu took off the portrait. On the wall behind the portrait, a mechanism was revealed.    

    

Lau Yu reached out his hand and pressed the trigger. The wall in front of him suddenly split into two and retreated to both sides, revealing a golden stone platform.    

    

A white-bearded old man with a fair complexion sat cross-legged on this stone platform. His entire body was emitting a faint white glow. His entire body was illusory and intangible.    

    

"You … "You …" Lau Yu was shocked. His eyes were wide open and his face was full of shock.    

    

Wasn't the person in front of him Zeng Ming, who was on the portrait just now?    

    

Could it be that this grandmaster golem isn't dead? Or perhaps, even though the puppet, as a grandmaster, had a decaying body, his soul was not completely destroyed.    

    

No, Lau Yu suddenly realised, even if Zeng Ming's soul could endure, without a body to attach to, no matter how hard he endure, it would be impossible for it to last for hundreds of thousands of years, from Ancient Era to now, right?    

    

… ….    

    

Lau Yu sensed carefully again, but he did not sense any signs of life from his body.    

    

And this Zeng Ming in front of me isn't a soul, he doesn't have the aura of a soul.    

    

"Young man, first, congratulations for passing the test set by this old man. However, this old man urgently wants to know how long it has been in the outside world. How many years is the Heaven Martial Scripture now?" Zeng Ming sized up Lau Yu and asked impatiently.    

    

"It really is the owner of this ruins, Zeng Ming!" Lau Yu was secretly shocked in his heart, and then said respectfully: "Senior, the Heaven realm calendar you mentioned is about Ancient Era. According to this junior's estimation, it's at least several hundred thousand years since you went to sleep."    

    

"Hundreds of thousands of years!"    

    

"Ai!"    

    

When Zeng Ming heard this, his expression suddenly became complicated and he sighed deeply.    

    

In the past, the Divine Continent he was so familiar with had undergone earth-shattering changes long ago.    

    

It would not be an exaggeration to say that things had changed so much in the past!
