Covering the sky: Starting from the Golden Crow of the Holy Cliff

Chapter 213 Boundless Heavenly Venerable's Daoist Soldiers
In an era without Great Emperors and Great Accomplished Sacred Bodies, the emergence of the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone represents an unparalleled pinnacle, a world-renowned figure who stands alone in supreme power.
Who in this world can rival it?

The true ancient emperor has been born, and there is no rival left in the nine heavens and ten earths!
Even a prince at the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor realm is no exception; in the eyes of the Supreme Being, he is at most a slightly larger ant, not even a young dragon.

Most of the stories in ancient books about imperial princes quelling rebellions originated from quasi-emperors in forbidden zones.

Even the supreme beings within the divine source cannot withstand the erosion of time; the time that those forbidden disciples and ancient quasi-emperors who follow the supreme beings can endure will only be shorter.

Those supreme descendants who have exhausted their potential early on and established themselves above the sixth level of Quasi-Emperor rarely choose to naturally transform into the Dao.

As long as there is a breath left!
Of course, they will struggle!
Fight against fate!

This is another major source of darkness and turmoil, and compared to their fathers, these forbidden zones are even more ruthless, devouring all living beings with far more cruel methods.

The ancient era was a period of frequent turmoil, and most of the human race's imperial sons were born during this time, like shooting stars streaking across the sky, shining with the most dazzling light!

They all suffered terrible encirclements and attacks, and the battles continued endlessly until they were completely exhausted...

Among these pacifiers, Jiang Yang was a very special case. He faced a true ancient emperor, and almost everyone thought that his attempt to contend with a supreme being with his quasi-emperor level nine cultivation was like a moth drawn to a flame, utterly meaningless.

The result was unexpected!
After the first battle, the old emperor of the forbidden zone of life disappeared, but he survived, even though he was destined to die.

This glory has been lost to the river of time, and few know what happened, except for a few ancient supreme beings who briefly revived and creatures from forbidden zones, who paid attention to that battle...

According to the creatures in the forbidden zone, the incident was astonishing, involving the cause and effect of extremely ancient times. The one who quelled the rebellion was not the emperor's son, but someone else entirely.

In the mythical era, there once existed an ancient kingdom called Jiang. Its ruler possessed unparalleled cultivation and had obtained a remnant of a weapon left behind by an ancient celestial being. According to records, that celestial artifact could absorb the resentment of living beings... Hatred, fighting spirit, resentment, and so on were all sources of its power.

That was an era of forbidden zones emerging and chaos reigning throughout the heavens. War and slaughter were everywhere, and everyone was vying for passage. Although the Jiang Kingdom had quasi-celestial beings, they were no match for them in that era. There were many forbidden zones with supreme-level foundations.

During the conflict, the Jiang Kingdom, due to the remnants of the Celestial Venerable's army, attracted the covetousness of another quasi-Celestial Venerable force.

The country's ruler hoped to repair the Celestial Weapon to repel the powerful enemy, but before the sword was forged, the country was already destroyed.

The younger sister of that quasi-celestial being was born unable to cultivate, but possessed a special immortal root, able to communicate with all things, and was a natural-born spirit. When the city fell, she threw herself into the sword-forging pool, generating an astonishing resentment that caused the remnants of the ancient celestial being's army to return, which was the Demon Sword.

The demonic sword escaped the forging pool, and the deity was resurrected, unleashing a devastating attack that sank an immortal legacy. Three quasi-Celestial Venerables from an enemy nation perished, leading to the nation's extermination. This event is known as the "Celestial Sword Incident."

Millions of years later, it's like a cycle repeating itself!

The imperial prince of the Hengyu lineage travels to the starry sky, facing off against the ancient emperor who instigated the chaos, with a death wish.

When he was in dire straits and about to die, his Daoist companion, sensing his plight, did not want to live alone and committed suicide with the demonic sword.

At the moment the woman's blood stained the sword embryo, the demonic sword opened the heavens, traversing infinite distances to rush into the mythical battlefield, recreating the extreme battles of the past years, almost merging with the emperor's son, and erupting with the laws of the imperial way.

After a fierce battle, the old emperor could not hold on any longer and died on the spot. Jiang Yang was also severely injured and nearly died.

When a loved one is gone, there is nothing left to cherish in this world!

In his final days, the imperial prince was deeply depressed. He traveled alone, dragging his dying body to conquer the forbidden zone of the Undying Mountain, before being buried in the desolate wilderness. The Demon Sword also dimmed and vanished from the mortal realm!
Until the distant past, a divine will descended, allowing later generations to pass by the ancient battlefield and regain the Demon Sword.

"Is it a matter of reincarnation, or a person undergoing reincarnation?" Jiang Yifei's voice was hoarse, almost unable to believe it, or rather, unwilling to believe it.

He had cultivated the "Former Word Secret" and thus glimpsed a corner of the future; that scene was almost identical to the experience of Emperor Prince Jiang Yang.

The same appearance, the same circumstances, and almost identical Daoist partner—that woman who couldn't cultivate...

"The Demon Sword... it should be the Dao weapon of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable. It once severed the head of a Chaos Body and dismembered it. It carries the overwhelming resentment of the Chaos Body." A clear voice came from the depths of the Immortal Ruins. The Ancient Dragon Marrow was revived, and the True Dragon carried the Emperor. A female monarch opened and closed her eyes, emitting nine-colored immortal light. She was incomparably beautiful.

“Boundless…Heavenly Venerable, one of the Nine Heavenly Venerables.”

The Holy Body of Yinghuo cast a glance over, and even he was somewhat surprised. Looking at the purplish-black sword embryo, he couldn't see any remnants of the Dao Venerable on it.

If it were the Boundless Heavenly Venerable, then the background of this demonic sword would make sense; no wonder it's so heaven-defying!

"Among the nine Heavenly Venerables, the third one, the Boundless Heavenly Venerable, created the supreme secret technique of controlling troops and was the ancestor of the art of war. During his reign, he led the Taoist sect to its peak and was extremely famous. In his later years, he sank a forbidden zone. Few people in the world know about it, but how could I, living in the mythological era, not know about it?"

"He fought on the path to immortality three times in his life. In his later years, he even suppressed the Chaos Body and used it to refine the Yin-Yang Five Elements Array Diagram, hoping to ascend to immortality. However, he failed at the last moment, causing immeasurable calamity and even shattering the Dao Sword..." The woman recounted an ancient history.

Yan Ming listened quietly, and couldn't help but marvel, never expecting that Jiang Yifei had such a past.

This can be seen in the novel *Covering the Sky*, where the emperor's bloodline is revived, making him seem like the reincarnation of Emperor Hengyu.

Now it seems that it was not the reincarnation of the ancestral emperor, but the reincarnation of another emperor's son, which makes quite sense!

After all, the initial premise of the Dark Turmoil was that Jiang Yifei sacrificed himself to revive Hengyu, and Ji Zi sacrificed herself to revive the Void.

From this perspective, Jiang Yifei's role should be based on Ji Zi, as a reincarnation of an imperial prince, rather than an ancient emperor!

However, I never expected that there really was a Jiang Yang in the ancient era, echoing the one after ten thousand ages!

The demonic sword is ominous, carrying the resentment of the tragic death of the Chaos Body, as well as the malevolent aura of the ancient Celestial Venerable who failed to ascend to the path of immortality.

Yan Ming's eyes flickered. He didn't think of the Heavenly Venerable Dao Soldier at first, but instead focused on a woman from ancient history.

In the ancient Jiang Kingdom of the mythical era, the sister of the king sacrificed herself to the sword, and miraculously, the damaged Heavenly Venerable Weapon was repaired—truly a miracle throughout the ages.

"I was able to repair the Immortal-Slaying Gourd because of my ancestors' legacy and the weapon spirit at the highest level. But what did that woman rely on?" He shook his head, suppressing his doubts and unwilling to explore further.

It's nothing more than a Celestial Weapon!

Even if its master is the Boundless Heavenly Venerable, so what?
The tragic deaths of his Daoist companions and the sorrowful past of the War Lord will not be repeated in Jiang Yifei's life; they will end in this lifetime!
He will shatter so-called destiny!

Even if the resentment in the human realm evolves into a semi-divine artifact, it still has to submit when it encounters sacrificial offerings.
