"【Thai】?"

Zhou Yan raised his hand and beckoned the jade talisman over.

Unlike before, when you could directly see the origins of a demon after it was sealed away.

This time, the jade talisman was pure and without any impurities. The faint golden light was the kind that had lost its glare over time. In the center was only the character "泰" (Tai), which was thick, solemn, and dignified, like a cluster of ten thousand sunrises and sunsets.

There is no story, no ink painting, only one word.

This single character, when it appeared, almost caused the mountain god's dream authority, originating from a branch of the famous Zhongnan Mountain, to collapse. Zhou Yan stroked the jade talisman with his fingers.

………………

In the Qingming Market, the Qingming Market Master paused slightly, sensing the shimmering lights of countless homes and the majesty emanating from Chang'an, the capital of the human world.

Finally, that connection with the divine will was abruptly severed.

She could only vaguely sense Zhou Yan wielding a knife and the surging human fortune.

“Zhou Yan…”

The owner of Qingmingfang frowned slightly, her heart filled with displeasure.

However, she wasn't so concerned about the thought that had been separated from her. She raised her slender hand, but the Weaver Girl had already wrapped herself around it. Her lips were slightly parted as she gently bit the Qingming Pavilion Master's finger.

The workshop owner pressed down on the weaver's head with his left hand and pushed her to one side.

The weaver girl lay softly on the bed, seemingly boneless, and giggled.

With unparalleled beauty, she said, "Speaking of which, I heard that you value the Kunlun relics so much. Does the Imperial Seal of the State really hold such great weight for you?" The Master of Qingming Pavilion did not answer, but his expression suddenly paused slightly when he sensed it.

A hint of surprise and a slight tremor passed through the woman's eyes.

Then, this feeling of shock quickly escalated into anger. With a rumble, the earth cracked open, and the true form of the Azure Netherworld Lord, who carried the market like a mountain, was revealed, causing the earth to tremble violently.

The weaver changed her charming posture, and her body swayed.

Her fair, slender, and boneless arms bent and fell to the ground. Fine hairs like steel needles grew on her fair skin. Her body swayed, becoming as huge as a mountain, and her limbs supported the true form of the Azure Netherworld Master.

boom! ! !
The two colossal objects collided, the sound of their collision like thunder, sending forth a burst of wind.

The wind swept across the mountains and rivers.

It swept across the land, turning rocks into dust and trees into weeds.

The Weaver Girl's voice became majestic, like a long wind sweeping across the sky, and she laughed: "Master, if you don't like human bodies and want to use the true form of a demon god to do romantic things, I don't think it's bad either."

"But what has made you so furious?"

The Master of Qingming Pavilion did not answer. She sensed with her true form that the most crucial and important source was gone. On the day that Lord Taishan disappeared, she was among the first to arrive. At that time, she fought with five other beings who had concealed their auras.

Each of them seized a portion of the remaining body of the Duke of Taishan.

This thing is naturally mysterious, and it has transformed into the Dao fruit.

The Duke of Taishan holds an exceptionally high position, commanding the six realms of demons, monsters, immortals, and gods. This kind of power is far too overwhelming, and it is the envy of various factions, including Buddhism, Taoism, secular society, demons, and immortals.

After obtaining this treasure, she studied and researched it, forcibly integrating it into her own essence, and only then did she glimpse the path ahead.

Therefore, it further strengthened its own characteristics of fair trade and rules against demons and monsters; it wanted to elevate its own will into rules, distort the gods and spirits of nature, and bring the distorted and demonized gods under its command.

This led to the formation of a demon court.

The plan is to use this method to get closer to the position of the God of Mount Tai who suppresses all the gods of mountains and rivers in the world. When she gets close to a certain side of the God of Mount Tai, she will swallow the treasure she obtained, thereby crossing the limit and truly achieving the first-class immortal god status.

There is also a connection between the Duke of Taishan and the Imperial Seal of the State, which is a relic of Kunlun.

However, at this moment, the Qingming Pavilion Master discovered that the one-sixth of the Taishan Duke's Dao Fruit that he had painstakingly obtained was missing a piece, as if someone had forcibly removed a portion from the Dao Fruit by following the previous connection.

No longer perfect, no longer complete.

That heartache, that intense resentment surged within her. It was precisely because she had paid such a high price to obtain this item that the loss of a part of it caused her such pain.

It's like a painting; you painstakingly finish it, only to find that someone has torn off a corner.

It's not much, but it has already damaged the integrity.

"Zhou Yan!!"

The true form of the Azure Netherworld Master raised its head and hissed.

Huge ripples spread out, reaching the sky and shattering the clouds and mist. The earth trembled, and aftershocks appeared. A small mountain was directly shaken down and crashed down with a thunderous roar.

The weaver realized the anger of the Azure Netherworld Master.

She swayed.

He transformed from a giant spider three hundred feet tall into human form and retreated, refusing to fight the Azure Netherworld Master, but he memorized the name in his heart.

The Qingming Fangzhu's divine will shifted, trying to determine where Zhou Yan, who had intercepted him, was at that moment. However, the incense smoke from tens of thousands of people gathered there transformed into a long river, blocking the Qingming Fangzhu's attempt to determine the location.

This is a newly born righteous god in Chang'an City. To find him, you need to break through Chang'an first.

She gazed at Chang'an City, the core of human order and destiny, a place even powerful demons dared not truly touch.

Humanity's fortune is like a river.

It won't retaliate immediately, but a counterattack will definitely not be absent.

That half-human, half-demon military governor claimed to be the adopted son of the Tang Dynasty's sage, yet he stirred up trouble; so he was also betrayed by his own son and stabbed to death with a dagger; the Jinghe faction, which controlled the water system, was also targeted.

From Xianyang, the capital of Qin, to Chang'an, the capital of Han, to Xijing, the capital of Tang.

Through the changing times, this city has remained. The Azure Netherworld Master, disguised as a woman, clenched her fists and said coldly:
“Zhou Yan…”

"You took my things, and I'll make you pay the price!"

The resentment in her heart was extremely strong.

At first, it could be crushed with a finger, and even now, it is still an ant that can be crushed with a finger, yet in just one or two months, it has grown to its current state.

Still weak, but cunning.

It's like an ant biting off a piece of its own flesh.

Most of the Dao Fruits were in his own hands. What Zhou Yan obtained was merely the qualification to compete with him on the same path of power. What he possessed was only one percent of the Dao Fruits in his own hands.

They have already established their own market, leaving behind rules and legends.

He has surpassed him by far on the path of the [Demon God Immortal Court].

I have no idea I can lose to him.

However, the fact that his own path had been taken over, and the unpleasant feeling of being blocked, still made the Master of the Azure Netherworld feel angry.

In a dream.

Zhou Yan held the jade talisman with the character "Tai" between his fingers, lost in thought. When he was chatting with the local earth god Mu Degong of Ganquanyuan, he heard the old earth god talk about the Kunlun treasures and the current situation of the world. The first-rank Taishan Duke had fallen, and only then did monsters emerge.

Now, what has been suppressed by the divine will of the Azure Netherworld Master is the character 【泰】.

Zhou Yan seemed to have guessed something.

Could it be that Qingming Fangzhu looted the corpse, and that a hundred fragments could be used to complete the authority of the Lord of Mount Tai? And just now, he casually took a character fragment that the other party had painstakingly collected, and then hid it?

Zhou Yan sensed the light emanating from the jade talisman with the character "Tai". He held it between his fingers, and the talisman naturally circulated, magnified, and merged into his mind. This time, there was no story, no past.

The jade scroll shone brightly.

Zhou Yan felt his gaze rising, as if reaching the clouds.

The wind brushed past his fingers and swept across the vast land and wheat fields. Clouds adorned his temples, and the sun was merely a hairpin in his hair. His eyes were lowered, watching the prosperity of the world and the birth and death of all living beings.

Breathing is like spring and summer, sighing is like the bleak north wind.

Countless mountain and water gods chanted his name.

"Lord Taishan, Lord Taishan."

In that vastness, it seemed that even humanity was about to dissipate. Suddenly, the world was upside down, and the small fragment of memory that Zhou Yan had sensed collapsed. One entity after another tore at his body, accompanied by a sound like the sky and the earth cracking apart.

The last scene in the jade talisman was six figures taking what he left behind after he fell.

They all used different supernatural powers to conceal their origins and appearances.

Some exuded pure energy, some emanated Buddhist light and chanting, some possessed iron-blooded ferocity, and others radiated the aura of humanity. There were demons, and one whose characteristics were indiscernible. In that instant, Zhou Yan seemed to sense that these six beings were scanning each other.

They each made a move against each other.

The illusory memories crumbled.

The aftershocks of the attack alone caused Zhou Yan to feel a stinging pain in his eyes. In that instant, with the help of the Mount Tai power on the jade talisman, Zhou Yan sensed the extreme killing intent of the Qingming Fangzhu and the hostility between the other beings who had obtained the power of Mount Tai.

There is only one of these treasures.

Each being, having obtained a part of itself, yearns for fulfillment.

Zhou Yan sensed that he and Qingming Fangzhu shared the same essence.

He had taken a portion of the Dao Fruit from Qingming Fangzhu, preventing it from reaching its full potential; while Zhou Yan, who originally only had a small portion, could barely operate it thanks to the existence of the jade scroll.

This is part of the authority of the Lord of Mount Tai over the six realms of Heaven, Earth, Man, Gods, Demons, and Ghosts.

There is only one supernatural power.

[Imperial Conferment]!
One who can build a divine court spanning thousands of mountains and rivers is qualified to be called a ruler.

This is also the path that the Lord of the Azure Netherworld is walking.

Zhao Man, the gambling den, the mountain lord, and the kitchen god—these were all part of the Qingming Fangzhu's secret agents, only Zhou Yan cut them off in the middle.

The jade book was flipped through violently, going straight to the very front, to the first page.

The character "泰" appears again, followed by five blank spaces, corresponding to the other five parts of the Dao Fruit that were plundered.

Because the other five characters were missing, no characters could appear on it. However, Zhou Yan used the jade talisman to glimpse the Duke of Taishan, or rather, to glimpse a part of Taishan's memories. Therefore, he knew how to name these things when they were combined.

That was definitely not the Duke of Taishan.

Or rather, that was the path that the God of Mount Tai walked.

The six parts of the Dao Fruit have been combined into one, and it should have a new title.

Zhou Yan stretched out his palm and grasped the faint but powerful aura that represented his qualifications. He understood the vortex he was in and, for the first time in this world, recited his full name.

It is said—

"【Taiyi - Heavenly Guardian】!"

When Zhou Yan recited this honorific title amidst the authority of the mountain god.

The distant Central Plains.

Mount Tai, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly changed.
