Covering the Heavens: Starting from the First Great Emperor

Chapter 1: The First Supreme Being

In the beginning of time, who taught the Way? Without a clear form of heaven or earth, how could one examine it? In the darkness and obscurity, who could fathom it? With only images, how could one understand it?

Xu Yuanming's golden pupils gradually grew clearer, the avenue flowing around him gradually receding, and the passage of time gradually began to leave little trace on his body. Densely woven silk threads intertwined his body, and this was his avenue.

At this moment, a divine will suddenly descended from the sky, and he was instantly split into two halves. The immortal platform roared faintly, but fortunately, an unpredictable force seemed to capture that powerful ability.

He was deducing, calculating the laws from the past from this catastrophe.

All eyes in the entire universe are focused on this point.

But all these were useless. Heaven's Will was shattered, not by the one who was undergoing the tribulation, but by a phantom that trampled Heaven's Will under its feet during the tribulation.

No matter who they were, they crawled on the ground, not daring to make a sound. The first living creatures in the world had no idea who was going through the tribulation and where it came from.

In the forbidden area left over from the last era, the Supreme One opened his pupils and spoke in a low voice.

"Emperor Huangtian..."

"It's him... That's right, the first 'Invincible One' of the new era will actually be tested by him."

Another Supreme Being saw the familiar figure from the past and pondered for a moment before finally speaking.

The Supreme murmured to himself, "The light of immortality shines through the ages. I wonder if I will ever see it again in this lifetime."

"Is this a new era? The structure of heaven and earth has undergone even greater changes... Is it possible to become an immortal in this world?"

"It may not be impossible... Emperor Huang Tian proved everything during the chaotic ancient times. It's not impossible to become an immortal, but... we are too weak. We can only wait for the path to immortality to open up!"

After sensing the arrival of the Supreme Tribulation, the Supremes began to discuss in the remaining life forbidden zone of the chaotic ancient era.

"His combat power is truly formidable... Although he hasn't yet successfully transcended the tribulation, his strength is already among the best among the Supreme Beings. Once he achieves enlightenment, he'll be hard to beat in this realm."

"If possible, this person who has attained enlightenment can definitely be called an 'Emperor' in the Supreme Realm!"

"Have you noticed? His system seems different from ours, but there are also similarities... Is it the 'method' of Emperor Huang Tian? Yes, no one else can accomplish such a world-shaking feat."

Xu Yuanming naturally could not hear their conversation, because he was facing the most powerful difficulty in history. People who have not experienced it will never understand the horror of that figure.

The sword light was like a rainbow, and just a sword energy filled the entire world. It seemed that no one could defeat it, and it was terrifying.

Xu Yuanming was still calculating, letting the sword lights swirl around him.

The figure stopped and no longer attacked blindly. Instead, a ray of sword energy shot out, as if it came from eternity.

A nine-leaf grass takes root in the universe, transcending the mundane world. Just looking at it makes you feel as if a divine sword is piercing your eyes.

With a "clang" sound, the nine-leaf clover turned, and the sword light was eternal, as if it existed in the past, present, and future, and was everywhere.

Xu Yuanming had been observing for a long time, and the whole person was no longer mysterious, but more and more like an ordinary person. He stretched out his hand and spoke softly.

"Cursive Sword Technique."

As he finished speaking, a nine-leaf clover also emerged behind him.

They are evenly matched, as if they were performed by the same person.

Emperor Huang Tian did not stop and swung his sword again.

A divine rainbow flew out from the shadow of the Emperor Sword, seemingly emanating from the dark side of the world, like the wailing of a True Immortal, filled with extreme sorrow. After the slash, the spiritual energy of the entire universe seemed to become solemn and deadly, not just Xu Yuanming who was undergoing the tribulation.

Everyone in the universe felt their scalps tingling, as if someone was holding a sword at their neck.

"The Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique."

Xu Yuanming spoke again, just like before, imitating the actions of Emperor Huang Tian. A long sword appeared in his hand and he swung out the sword technique that frightened gods and demons.

Still competing against each other.

The "Emperor Huangtian" in the zenith raised his sword again.

At this moment, the sword in his hand transformed into a humanoid creature, and the monstrous sword energy seemed to exist in the past, present and future, and was everywhere.

After the sword light was fully formed, it seemed as if one saw the scene of the chaotic ancient times, with all kinds of strange beasts roaring around, the sky spinning, as if the whole world was on the verge of collapse.

The humanoid creature simply drew out the sword from its sheath, moved his lips slightly, and the next moment a sharp feeling seemed to come from the distant past.

That strike seemed to be able to pacify everything in heaven and on earth, and no one could stop it. All living things turned into nothingness under this sword.

Xu Yuanming pinched his fingers and spoke in a flat voice.

"The Art of Suppressing Rebellion."

After canceling each other out again, the shadow of the 'Emperor of the Desolate Sky' above the sky became increasingly faint, and finally a little man seemed to walk out of the chaos, and he stood above the head of the 'Emperor of the Desolate Sky'.

The two men made the same movement, and at this moment the sword chopped down from high in the sky.

This move seemed to cut directly into the soul, and there was no way to avoid it.

Xu Yuanming raised his eyebrows. This sword gave him an unprecedented feeling. Although the previous three sword techniques also brought great danger, this sword posed a danger to his life.

He hummed softly, and from his ten fingers emerged threads floating in the air over the years. The threads seemed to ignore everything. They were not long swords, but they were sharper than long swords. Finally, they began to weave slowly.

Soon, another 'Emperor Huang Tian' walked out from the ball of silk thread.

This is his law, his destiny!
The trajectory of the previous battle was woven into a brand new 'Emperor of the Wilderness'.

"Another... 'Desolate Sky Emperor'?"

The Supreme Beings who were watching the battle were speechless when they heard this voice. They did not expect that the "invincible technique" of the first Supreme Being after the chaotic ancient times would be so powerful.

At this time, a supreme being who had lived for a very long time opened his pupils, saw this spell, and said softly.

"This technique seems to be similar to that of the 'Desolate Sky Emperor'. According to distant beings, a being above the immortal realm broke through the boundaries and arrived, which once provoked the 'Desolate Sky Emperor' to take action. At that time, he performed an extremely incredible spell, which was able to transform into a being that was identical to others to fight alongside him."

When a supreme being heard that this method was similar to that of the 'Emperor Huang Tian', greed appeared on his face and the desire in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

"Looking at his situation, I guess this calamity won't be able to stop him. Then I'll discuss this spell with him."

"Fellow Daoist Zhentian is absolutely right. Perhaps we can find a way to survive through this method, become immortals like the 'Emperor Huangtian', and finally enter the immortal realm, where we can roam freely in the world from then on."

In their opinion, even if Xu Yuanming had reached the pinnacle of the extreme, what did it matter? Over the past tens of millions of years, although most of the supreme beings were not very powerful, there were still quite a few who were at the pinnacle of the extreme.

Xu Yuanming alone could not resist them at all.
