Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1230 The Beginning of Everything

"Are you sure?" The big yellow dog asked, a hint of excitement in its eyes. "Are you sure Zhang Tianlin is still alive?"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "That's what the peddler told me anyway. But according to him, Zhang Tianlin's condition shouldn't be very good right now. He's probably been seriously contaminated."

At this point, Ye Qing looked at the big yellow dog.

This dog didn't react much when it heard about peddlers and spirits, which is why Ye Qing suspected it knew all about it.

“If this guy is still alive, he could easily erase this mark from your body. That would save you a lot of trouble!” Yu said.

Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "But he is the Great Emperor. What if he is unwilling to erase us if we go there? Zhang Heng and the others have deliberately concealed the fact that Zhang Tianlin is still alive."

"Perhaps they don't know whether Zhang Tianlin is really still alive!" the big yellow dog said. "Besides, you don't need to worry about that. Zhang Tianlin is different from those guys in the Heavenly Court. This old guy is actually a pretty good person. Apart from being a bit cunning and liking to go around robbing tombs, he doesn't have any major problems!"

"Judging from your tone, it seems you know him?" Yu asked suspiciously before Ye Qing could speak.

The big yellow dog nodded and said, "We have some connection, so kid, don't worry, I'll be with you without any danger. Besides... Zhang Tianlin is well-versed in the art of array deduction and is a top-tier array master. He might know how to leave this place."

“We really need him to get out of here,” the big yellow dog said. “And it’ll be a good thing for you too, kid, after he leaves.”

"How so?" Ye Qing asked.

"Between someone who could potentially threaten the Heavenly Court in the future and someone who can directly threaten the Heavenly Court, who do you think the Heavenly Court will choose to deal with?" Big Yellow grinned and said.

"You mean, after Zhang Tianlin leaves, he will turn against the Heavenly Court?" Ye Qing asked.

The big yellow dog nodded and said, "Of course, Zhang Tianlin had his reasons for entering Silent Hill back then. He was one of the top figures in the universe at the time. However, as he disappeared from Silent Hill, his Qi-Observing Clan was wiped out by the Emperor of Cause and Effect. The descendants of those who entered this place with him were also massacred. Do you think he will seek revenge after he leaves?"

“Once he starts making a call to action, there are probably quite a few people in this universe who wouldn’t mind messing with the Heavenly Court. That way, you can buy yourself some time!” The big yellow dog said with a smile, “This time, you’ve reaped quite a harvest!”

Ye Qing also breathed a slight sigh of relief, then looked at the big yellow dog and said, "You dead dog, do you know a lot about Silent Hill?"

"I really don't understand!" said the big yellow dog.

"Then why do you know about that bronze coffin? When I talked about the peddler and the spirit race, you didn't react much, as if you knew all about its components. Even when dealing with outsiders who are different from us, you remained calm!" Ye Qing said.

The big yellow dog laughed arrogantly and said, "My experience is so rich that even the most bizarre things cannot shake me in the slightest. Your little bit of information has no effect on me. As for that bronze coffin, it was the beginning of everything. Those who have lived a long time naturally know about it."

"The beginning of everything?" Ye Qing's expression shifted. "You mean the collapse of the Chaotic Star Sea?"

"What's the point of guessing? It's useless for you to know anything now," the big yellow dog said, scoffing.

"Alright!" Yu said, "Zhang Ke is about to break through. Once he breaks through to the Venerable Realm, you can leave this place. It may only take a day or two. The Immortal Slaying Sword is very difficult to master. You should practice with me a little more, and it would be best to leave after you have mastered the basics!"

Ye Qing nodded.

Although he already possessed the mental cultivation method and had personally witnessed Yu use this move, it was the most advanced skill among all techniques. Once he left this place and without Yu's personal guidance, mastering it would certainly not be so simple.

Moreover, this sword strike might become his ultimate killing move, so it would be even better if he could learn the basics here.

By then, Ye Qing will have mastered a total of six unique skills and one divine skill!

This is crucial for his future!

Without a doubt, he will face a lot of battles against opponents of higher ranks in the future!

Even if Zhang Tianlin's departure distracts the Heavenly Court, it doesn't need the Great Emperor or even the Saints to deal with Ye Qing and his group. As long as a small number of Venerables hunt them down and find them, it will be a disaster for Ye Qing!

The big yellow dog fell silent. It coughed and said, "I'll also hurry up and recover. I feel that before I leave, I might have a chance to return to the ranks of the Venerables!"

With that, it jumped directly into the water.

After he left, Ye Qing looked at Yu and said, "Master, does this dog know a lot?"

"That's not important!" Yu said. "Tiangou can be unreliable sometimes, but it's still a dog. Loyalty is its nature, so you can trust it completely. This dog may have a lot of thoughts, but it won't harm you!"

“I feel something’s wrong. This stupid dog is always the first to run away whenever there’s danger,” Ye Qing said.

Yu said speechlessly, "Let's practice first!"

As night fell, Yu's other identity came into play; of course, she only provided guidance to Ye Qing.

That night, a large amount of energy surged underground.

However, this Venerable One's breakthrough seemed to be more troublesome than Ye Qing had imagined.

The energy lasted for a day and a night before slowly disappearing. Zhang Ke's breakthrough process was not yet over, and a vast Yin and Yang aura rose and surrounded the entire Mirror Lake.

According to Yu, this process will take several more days before Zhang Ke can completely complete the breakthrough.

Of course, Ye Qing wasn't in a hurry. He spent the rest of the time comprehending the sword!

On the seventh day, all the yin and yang energy completely disappeared, and at the same time, a powerful aura emanated from underwater!

Your Holiness!

Between heaven and earth, I am the most supreme!

This is a kind of temperament. Breaking through to the Venerable level also means that Zhang Ke has officially entered another category, the category of top experts in the universe!

In the vast universe, there are countless living beings!

The number of cultivators is countless!

However, there are only a few thousand Venerable Ones.

This is already an existence at the very top of the universe.

As for sages, to some extent, they are already able to influence the overall structure of the universe.

Ye Qing didn't care; he had been sitting in meditation for two days.
