Chapter 44

Lu Shaoyou looked at the library with a stunned expression, having already mentally prepared himself. However, when he truly saw the inside of the library, he was still shocked! This is no ordinary library! It is clearly another world!

What met his eyes was a vast, boundless starry sky! Endless starlight swirled, nebulae rose and fell, and at the center were the 365 major stars of the heavens, shining brightly. The vast starlight cascaded down like a waterfall, forming a staircase before Lu Shaoyou. He was slightly stunned for a moment, then took large steps up the staircase.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Shaoyou was completely enveloped by the starlight. He focused his gaze on the star-like shining points. This look made Lu Shaoyou jump in surprise; these star-like shining cores were actually books! The Yanwu Clan had such a grand gesture, with so many books, and the library was decorated in such a unique way, presenting a grand scene!

Lu Shaoyou did not hesitate and began searching in the starry universe. He saw the profound techniques used by the core disciples, such as "Yinming Creation Palm," "Golden Supreme Battle Qi," "Zhou Tian Yin Lei Dao," "Jiangshan Fist," and "True Dragon Sky Splitting Fist," among other combat techniques. Lu Shaoyou searched through the starry sea one by one, thinking to himself that it would take ages to go through them all. Just as Lu Shaoyou was at a loss, the voice of the divine pig suddenly came from his mind.

"Choose that one! Quickly, quickly! Little brat, we've hit the jackpot!" The divine pig danced in Lu Shaoyou's mind, "That's the one! Yes, the one right next to you!"

"You dead pig, why didn't you even dare to fart when that shadow appeared?" Lu Shaoyou sneered at the divine pig, "Why are you wandering around now?"

"Hey, that old man is quite strong, just half a step away from becoming a semi-divine level powerhouse! This pig's strength hasn't been restored, how could I be his match?" The divine pig shook its head helplessly, but then changed the subject, "Back in the ancient times, I was a great being! Do you know? A great being of the Immortal Secret Realm! This kind of minor demon, I could crush with a single breath!"

Lu Shaoyou rolled his eyes at the divine pig, ignoring its boasts, and instead picked up a yellowed book, asking, "You want me to take this book? Is this combat technique very strong?"

Lu Shaoyou flipped through the book, and on the first page, he saw the title "Glorious Imperial Way Fist" in large characters. He turned to the next page, where it read, "To seek immortality, cultivate Kunlun." The bold characters were powerful and vigorous, exuding a majestic imperial aura!

"Kid, you've hit the jackpot! This book is a rare and unique treasure that is hard to come by even in the ancient times!" The divine pig's small, beady eyes were full of envy, "This pig has only heard of its fame, but never learned it! Kid, let me ask you, do you know the story of the Five Emperors of the ancient human race?"

"The Five Emperors?" Lu Shaoyou raised an eyebrow, surprised that this world also had them. He cautiously asked, "Could it be... the story of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors?!"

"Huh?" The divine pig sounded surprised, seemingly amazed that Lu Shaoyou knew about the Five Emperors, "You actually know the story of the Three Sovereigns of the human race! Even now, only the upper echelons of the human race know that the Five Emperors were above the Three Sovereigns. Most humans only know about the Five Emperors. You, a demon, know about the Three Sovereigns! How do you know this, kid!"

Lu Shaoyou laughed bitterly. How could he not know? He was a descendant of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors! His world also had the existence of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors! But how could he explain this? His world and this world had many similarities, but also many differences, which left Lu Shaoyou very confused. He felt that there was a hidden hand pushing him, and he was just a small piece in a grand chess game. This made him very uncomfortable, but he also had a strong desire for power, as only with enough strength could he break his fate, escape the constraints, and live freely.

"Never mind, you don't have to say. But let me tell you, this 'Glorious Imperial Way Fist' is the exclusive technique of Emperor Ku!" The divine pig said solemnly, "You might not know how powerful the Five Emperors were in ancient times."

"Let me tell you! Each of the Five Emperors was a world-shaking figure! Originally, the existence of the Five Emperors was not unique. In that era, there were still beings as powerful as the Five Emperors. For example, the supreme demon of our demon race, Kunpeng, was also a world-shaking figure! His cultivation had already reached the pinnacle, and he was an ancient relic from the ancient times! Even the immortals in the heavens would die if they met him. He once devoured a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals! What a glorious and magnificent feat!" The divine pig's face showed a look of longing as he spoke, "However, it's not that Kunpeng was not a match for the Five Emperors. If he fought, he could battle any of the Five Emperors for a thousand years without losing! But the problem was that the Five Emperors appeared one after another! The first, Emperor Zhuanxu, was the first of the Five Emperors of the human race and possessed the bloodline of the Yellow Emperor, one of the Three Sovereigns! In the following tens of thousands of years, Emperor Ku, Emperor Yao, Emperor Shun, and Emperor Yu all emerged, each a world-shaking figure. These five great figures led the human race to its peak! At that time, the human race was the first among all races! All the races bowed down! The Five Emperors of the human race appeared in a cycle, one after another, rising to power before the glory of the previous one had faded, carrying the human race forward and intimidating all the races! These five human figures were truly the greatest geniuses."

"If they could defy the heavens and fight immortals, why didn't they ascend? Could the human world bear their power?"

The divine pig recalled the five great figures with a desolate look, slowly saying, "Sigh, the ancient times were different from the current chaos. In the ancient times, the chaos was much larger, and the laws of heaven and earth were dozens of times more solid and complete than now. Moreover, the situation was too complex. If not... sigh, anyway, at that time, people could choose whether to ascend or not. That's why the Five Emperors of the ancient times could dominate all the races."

"Alright, enough talk. This 'Glorious Imperial Way Fist' is Emperor Ku's technique. Consider yourself lucky to have found it!" The divine pig's tone had a hint of jealousy, "The Yanwu Clan is truly a great ancient clan to have such a rare and unique treasure."

"Alright, kid, go find the other two combat techniques quickly!"

Lu Shaoyou nodded and said, "Understood." With that, he twisted his body and began searching in the starry universe again.
