"Who are you, how dare you fly above the Imperial City?" When Zhou Yang and his party were still a few kilometers away from the Imperial Palace, two Commanders wearing Black Armor stopped in front of Zhou Yang and angrily rebuked.
The two Commanders released their aura unabashedly.
"The strength of these two people is not inferior to Di Shi Tian." Zhou Yang looked at the aura of the two and was stunned.
Damn, I didn't expect there to be so many masters in the Tang Dynasty.
In fact, Zhou Yang was wrong. These two Commanders were already the top Martial Dao masters in the Tang Dynasty.
Zhou Yang and his party swaggered towards the Imperial Palace. The two Commanders didn't know the purpose of Zhou Yang and his party, so they hurriedly stopped them.
Because masters of their level were too destructive in the Imperial Palace.
"We are here to visit Emperor Li Sheng."
Zhou Yang explained. He flew down from the sky, knowing that his party was a bit reckless.
If it weren't for the fact that their group was strong, the two commanders of the Imperial Army would have already started killing them.
"We have to ask." The two Commanders looked at each other. One of them was holding a Black Iron Profound Spear and quickly flew towards the Imperial Palace, while the other stayed in place and looked at Zhou Yang and his party vigilantly.
In just a quarter of an hour, the Commander who flew away quickly flew back.
"His Majesty has agreed to see you." The Commander holding a Black Iron Profound Spear said.
However, he didn't let Zhou Yang and his party fly above Chang 'an City, but allowed Zhou Yang and his party to use their Qinggong and quickly walk towards the Imperial Palace.
"Dragon Qi?"
As soon as Zhou Yang walked into the Imperial Palace, he felt a faint pressure.
Although this pressure had no effect on Zhou Yang.
But the strength of Di Shi Tian and his party gradually decreased as they went deeper into the Imperial Palace under the pressure of the Dragon Qi.
The two Commanders were wrapped in a layer of Dragon Qi, and their combat power gradually increased.
In other words, they were experts of the same cultivation realm. These two commanders of the Imperial Army were not afraid of being besieged within the palace.
If not for the fact that they couldn't sense Zhou Yang's strength, the two Imperial Army commanders wouldn't have left the royal palace. Instead, they would have made use of the terrain to ambush Zhou Yang's group.
The closer they got to the palace, the heavier the pressure became. Zhou Yang saw an illusory golden dragon figure on top of the Taiji Palace, staring intently at Zhou Yang's group.
"That should be the Golden Dragon of Destiny," Zhou Yang guessed.
The strength of the Golden Dragon of Destiny represented the fate of the Great Tang.
The pressure exerted by the Golden Dragon of Destiny on martial artists was relatively weak.
However, if a cultivator were to enter the palace, their every movement would be restricted.
If he used any magic arts, he would most likely be attacked by the Golden Dragon of Fate.
Even the Fish Demons from before would have their intelligence erased by the Golden Dragon of Providence.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Zhou Yang's group entered the Taiji Palace and saw Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan sitting on the throne. He cupped his hands in greeting.
"May I know why you are looking for me?" Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan asked Zhou Yang and the others calmly, without any sign of anger.
"I heard that Your Majesty is looking for the Elixir of Immortality. I have some elixirs that can extend one's lifespan. I'm here to make a deal with Your Majesty," Zhou Yang said. In his hand was a hundred-year life force.
Of course, he hadn't heard that Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan was looking for the Elixir of Immortality. However, every aging Emperor couldn't help but look for the Elixir of Immortality.
They wanted to be Emperors for the rest of their lives.
Although Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan couldn't extend his lifespan by a hundred years, he could at least extend it by fifty years.
Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan didn't look happy. Instead, he looked gloomy.
He had ordered his confidants to look for the Elixir of Immortality in secret. Even Crown Prince Li Jiancheng and Emperor Li Shimin didn't know about it.
How did Zhou Yang know?
Could there be a spy among his confidants?
However, Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan quickly adjusted his mood. "Sir, have you not heard of the rule that Emperors can't live forever?"
"Once an Emperor cultivates to a certain level and extends his lifespan, he will be punished by the heavens and die a violent death." Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan stared at Zhou Yang's group with a smile.
"Oh?" Zhou Yang was slightly surprised.
If it was said that the Golden Dragon of Providence prevented the emperor from cultivating, he would believe it.
He had never heard of the Emperor dying a violent death while cultivating Daoist techniques.
Emperors like Emperor Chongzheng and Zhu Youjian were doing well.
Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan looked at Zhou Yang's group. He was surprised that these people didn't know about this taboo.
"There are three famous Emperors who died to Tian Fa. Emperor Qin Shihuang, Emperor Liu Che of Han Dynasty, and Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty," Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan explained with interest as he looked at Zhou Yang's group.
"Emperor Qin Shihuang died to the Lightning Tribulation, Emperor Liu Che of Han Dynasty died to the Curse of Heaven and Earth, and Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty died to the Guillotine of Heaven and Earth."
So awesome?
Zhou Yang was shocked. The Heavenly Dao of the Journey to the West Exorcism world was so broad?
However, Zhou Yang quickly shook his head. If that was the case, Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan wouldn't have such an expression when he mentioned the Elixir of Immortality.
"May I know which sect you are from?" Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan's eyes were filled with interest. Such a special sect existed in the world. It was really different.
"We are from Wanjie Lou. As long as you can afford it, we can trade anything," Zhou Yang said.
"Do you have the Elixir of Immortality?" Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan asked casually.
However. Zhou Yang noticed a trace of desire in Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan's eyes.
Although there was a trace of desire, it was well hidden.
But Zhou Yang had seen this kind of desire too many times.
Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan naturally couldn't hide it from him.
"Of course!" Zhou Yang affirmed. "But these Elixirs of Immortality have some restrictions. If you want to live forever, you have to leave this world."
"How dare you!"
The two Imperial Army commanders who had been standing guard in front of Tang Gaozu, Li Yuan, berated.
Wasn't that asking for their Emperor's death?
"Stand down!"
Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan ordered. He was even more curious about Zhou Yang's group. "Is your sect related to Buddhism?"
Buddhism had always believed in the Three Thousand Worlds. They didn't believe that there was only one world.
The leader of Mahayana Buddhism, Gautama Buddha, was rumored to have ascended to a wider world.
"We have nothing to do with Buddhism. If Your Majesty wants to buy some Buddhist martial arts manuals and artifacts, we have quite a few." Zhou Yang smiled.
"What a surprise." Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan sighed. "I didn't expect such a magical sect to exist in this world."
Zhou Yang didn't say anything. Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan only said one sentence out of ten.
Although he was amazed by Wanjie Lou's magic, he might be cursing them for being liars in his heart.
With the Tang Empire's national power, they couldn't investigate all the sects in the world in detail.
But they still paid attention to sects like Mahayana Buddhism, Tai Qing Palace, and Confucianism.
The Tang Empire was able to unify the world because of the support of Tai Qing Palace.
Naturally, they were very wary of a sect like Tai Qing Palace.
If Wanjie Lou was really so powerful, how could he not leave any information behind?
Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan probably valued the strength of Zhou Yang's group and wanted to rope them in. Otherwise, why would he talk to a group of strangers so amiably?
Zhou Yang smiled. In an instant, the entire Taiji Palace was filled with all kinds of goods.
Most of them were from the world of science and technology.
For a powerful Xianxia world, displaying some martial arts manuals and cultivation techniques was like showing off in front of an expert.
"The owner is really amazing!"
After a while, Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan recovered from his shock and uttered a sentence without substance.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince requests an audience. The Crown Prince has found four great scholars who can inspire the world's culture," an imperial guard in silver armor said excitedly as he walked out of the Taiji Palace.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Qin requests an audience. He has found five great scholars who can inspire the world's culture," another imperial guard in black armor beside the silver-armored imperial guard said.
"Shopkeeper, why don't you come with me to meet these nine great scholars?" Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan was stunned. The shock in his eyes was no less than when he saw the technological goods Zhou Yang took out.
Clearly, these so-called great scholars had a high status in the Tang Empire.
But Zhou Yang was curious. Who could it be?
