Peerless Taoist

However, as countless runes appeared on the wall, it actually blocked Lu Yu's attack.    

One should know that Lu Yu's cultivation level and his current cultivation base could not even block a palm strike from Daolord, who was at the Early Stage. However, this city was completely blocked.    

"Boom!"    

A huge echo spread in all directions. Liu Bingzhong's eyelids were twitching crazily.    

However, Liu Bingzhong's face revealed a hint of joy when he saw that the Heaven Extermination Palace had blocked the attack.    

"Well done!"    

Liu Bingzhong said excitedly when he heard the praise of the emperor, "I will do anything for His Majesty!"    

"There is no need to die. You must be rewarded for your meritorious service. Your reward is on the way. Go back and wait for the decree." Lu Yu said lightly.    

"This official thanks His Majesty!"    

Liu Bingzhong's eyes suddenly fell on the firm and boundless Heaven Extermination Palace and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, when are you going to move to the Heaven Extermination Palace? This official has long made preparations."    

Lu Yu was expressionless and did not answer Liu Bingzhong's question.    

The towering Sky Destroying Palace was deep in the city, with red bricks and black tiles. The golden dragon gate locked the purple qi inside the palace. It was like a monarch was standing behind a jade curtain, looking down at the magnificent scenery.    

However, no matter how Lu Yu looked at it, he felt that what he saw was a cage.    

...    

New Year's Eve.    

The Imperial Capital was filled with cheers, and the sound of firecrackers echoed in the night sky.    

However, the noise in the city could not reach the distant Heaven Extermination Palace.    

The cold darkness was like a giant beast of the abyss, opening its mouth and devouring the layers of palaces. Even though the palace was deep, it still lost a little bit of life after the lack of lights.    

Zhao Gao carefully stepped over the stone bricks. The high palace walls set off a long path, and his light footsteps echoed around.    

His muddy eyes landed on the palace walls, and his eyelids twitched. His heart was no longer calm.    

Every stone brick was stained with dark golden blood. It was as if there were seals inscribed on the palace walls, augmenting it with supreme magic power.    

Following the blood traces that were as thin as snakes, Zhao Gao found Lu Yu in the deepest part of the Sky Destroying Palace.    

On the thirty feet wide white jade platform, Lu Yu stood there wearing a plain white brocade robe. His face looked pale as if he had lost too much blood.    

In front of Lu Yu, there was an offering table with three spirit tablets on it. Green smoke rose from the incense and lingered around Lu Yu.    

The three spirit tablets were worshipping three names.    

Zhao Tianyin! Dark Mysterious! Lu Yu!    

When he saw this scene, Zhao Gao could no longer suppress the emotions in his heart and shouted, "Your Majesty!"    

"You're here."    

Lu Yu's voice was a little low and hoarse. The candle flame on the spirit tablet flickered and flickered.    

"Why do you need to do this? Why do you need to do this? You have just ascended to the top, and the Imperial Court is in dire need of you. Why do you have to take such a risk?" Zhao Gao roared.    

The eunuch who held power in the court had tears in his eyes as he begged.    

A gust of cold wind blew, and the candles on the table were extinguished.    

Lu Yu's voice slowly came from the darkness.    

"I have been struggling for three lifetimes, but I can't free myself."    

"In my first life, I was cursed by the Fuxi Curse, and my life was on the verge of death. In my second life, I was exiled from my home, and I was hunted down by Demonic Cultivator. In my third life, the person I loved was captured by the enemy. But I realized it later. I am not a saint, and there are times when I am powerless. There are also things that I regret."    

"I have personally witnessed the prosperity of the ancient human race, and I have personally experienced the prosperity of the ancient Heavenly Court. But all of this has nothing to do with this world. I thought that after cultivating Daolord in my previous life, my martial arts would be unparalleled under the heavens. But now, I realized that all of us are living in a lie. All living beings in the Heaven Realm are like sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Their disciples are waiting to be slaughtered."    

Zhao Gao suddenly raised his head, a look of disbelief on his face.    

"I've made many arrangements in the Imperial Court, and the various divisions have their own positions. The Emperor is just a symbol. Even without the King, the Imperial Court will still operate on its own. "    

Lu Yu said lightly, "In this life, I do not seek glory and glory, but I seek a clear conscience. After ten thousand years, perhaps no one will remember my name, but I am willing to exchange my blood for the peace of ten thousand lives."    

As soon as he finished speaking, a flower with seven colors of light appeared in Lu Yu's hand.    

Seeing this, Zhao Gao slammed his head hard onto the ground, and blood oozed out of his forehead.    

"This old servant Zhao Gao, I wish Your Majesty a smooth return and rule the world!"    

Year 2 of Spring and Autumn, Year 30 of the twelfth lunar month.    

Lu Yu swallowed the Reincarnation Flower and charged into the advanced-stage of the Mysterious Immortal Realm!    

True Immortal Qi shot straight into the clouds.    

In an instant, there was a blood eye floating in the sky, a soul-stealing hobby!
