Covering the Heavens: Starting from the First Great Emperor

Chapter 10: Immortal King Shroud

"Treasure?"

Xu Yuandong nodded and said, "Senior, please come with me."

After that, the two of them came to the depths of the imperial city, which was empty and unguarded.

As he got closer, Xu Yuanming could feel a terrifying aura. Even the desolate tower he had seen at that time did not have such power.

Xu Yuandong didn't feel anything unusual and said to Xu Yuanming.

"Senior, come in."

After opening the door.

I found only a piece of rag, which was very wrinkled and had some holes on it, and seemed to be completely rotten.

It can be roughly seen that this is a flag with various stains of blood on it, and the years have left countless marks on it.

But the moment it came into view, Xu Yuanming felt his scalp tingling. At the same time, he also felt that there was an overwhelming and terrifying aura coming through the ages, and endless shouts and cries of killing shook the sky and broke out here.

Xu Yuanming blurted out.

"The Immortal King's Shroud!"

Xu Yuandong nodded and introduced himself.

"Back then, during the apocalyptic war in the chaotic ancient times, more commonly known as the Immortal Ancient Era, this piece of cloth was merely a blood-and-iron battle flag, held by a True Immortal, guiding the various races to fight against the vast armies of foreign lands..."

For some reason, when Xu Yuanming said this, a feeling of sadness rose in his heart.

This battle flag may have been just an iron-blooded battle flag back then, a symbol. If it is broken, it is broken, and you can build a new one.

But later on, its meaning became completely different. When an immortal king died in battle, his body was wrapped in it and returned home.

Moreover, not just one Immortal King, but two Immortal Kings were wrapped in this battle flag and returned to their hometown after their death!
This battle flag served as a shroud and once brought back the broken remains of two immortal kings, and the blood of the two immortal kings who died in battle inevitably soaked into this flag.

The battle flag was originally woven from rare silk threads, and with the addition of the Immortal King's most original essence and blood, it became even more extraordinary.

Finally, it fell into the hands of the Xu family, who performed rituals and refined it, turning it into a treasure engraved with an immortal magic array, somewhere between a magic array and a weapon.

This explains everything. It turns out to be this supreme treasure. No wonder the Xu family is not afraid of the Supreme Being, and the beings in the restricted area dare not come to the Xu family's ancient star to cause trouble.

During the chaotic ancient times, Meng Tianzheng held the Immortal King's Shroud to fight against the two immortal weapons of the Wang family, and also played a crucial role at the Imperial Pass.

Xu Yuanming speculated that the Immortal King's shroud was brought to the Immortal Realm by Princess Yaoyue and sacrificed after the final battle.

After Shi Hao buried it, he returned the cloth to the Xu family.

Xu Yuanming asked, "Are you really going to entrust such a precious treasure to me for safekeeping?"

Xu Yuandong said very seriously.

"In the past, my Xu family lent out the Immortal King's shroud. Now that my Xu family is no longer what it once was, there are definitely some villains who covet it. After my death, my younger generation will not be able to maintain the formation to compete with the Supreme Being. During this period, I need you, seniors, to help my Xu family eliminate the enemies."

Xu Yuanming said, "I promise. No one can touch the Xu family while I am alive. Of course, if anyone from the Xu family bullies others, I will punish them."

"Everything is decided by the seniors."

After Xu Yuanming put the Immortal King's shroud into his own space, Xu Yuandong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Yuandong looked towards the restricted area and spoke in a low voice.

"The restricted areas are a scourge, but no one in the world can eradicate them. In this world, we have the Heavenly Lord to intimidate them. But what will happen after you pass away?" Xu Yuanming said softly, "I will pacify all the restricted areas."

Xu Yuandong smiled bitterly.

"How easy is that? There are dozens of Supreme Beings. Unless a true immortal descends, no one can do anything to them. I know that Tianzun cares about the world, so I will lend you the Immortal King's shroud. I hope it will be helpful."

Dark turmoil has existed since ancient times, in the era of the emperor's fall, the ancient times of immortals, and the ancient times of chaos, and it still exists today.

There is no rest. In every era, many people will throw themselves into the great turmoil and liquidate the entire universe.

After the mythological era, the country became a holy body, and emperors from all races followed one after another, until Ye Fan appeared and the situation was completely pacified.

This is not something that can be achieved overnight. Those people are unwilling to live in vain and protect the people without taking a single step back.

But even so, some emperors cut themselves in half, transformed into supreme beings, and devoured billions of lives in the universe, and the cycle continued.

Unless he can defeat all the supreme beings in this generation, but how easy is that?

From the end of the chaotic ancient times to the present day, countless years have passed. How many great emperors have emerged during this period?

All the burdens fell on Xu Yuanming, but he had no room for retreat.

Those supreme beings wanted to kill him, swallow his destiny fruit, and study the secret of becoming an immortal.

In his later years, those supreme beings will surely appear and start a dark chaos.

Although the realm of those supreme beings left over from the chaotic ancient times is not as high as that of the peak of the extreme way of using their bodies as seeds, basically everyone of them has practiced the true immortal method, or even the ten evil methods.

Those skills are really too abnormal and extremely difficult to deal with. Otherwise, with the power of fate, he really cannot completely wipe out the True Heaven Supreme in a short time.

But it is much better now. He now has the "Original True Explanation", which will greatly improve him.

Of course, what Xu Yuanming was most worried about was not the supreme being left over from the chaotic ancient times, but the ominous aura.

There must not be any remnants of this kind of thing. If you are not careful, even the Immortal Emperor will be eroded, just like Brother Di Gu, who went from being a Heavenly Emperor admired by all races to the Dark Immortal Emperor, the initiator of the dark turmoil.

Xu Yuanming made up his mind that he wanted to become an immortal.

The era at the end of the chaotic ancient era has just begun, and the spiritual power of the Dharma Ending Age has gradually begun to recover. It won’t be long before a glorious era will appear.

He speculated that the age of myth was coming.

In a new era, nine of the most powerful people will be born. They will create nine secrets, each of which is the ultimate in a field before the path to immortality.

In the past, these people could all become immortals, but in the end only two of them did, and the others all succumbed to the passage of time.

All geniuses will be eclipsed by the years. This era of covering the sky is a huge picture scroll and a sad era.

The years are like a knife cutting down the genius, and the path to eternal life is full of enchantment.

The current realm has not yet been perfected, and the number of people in the world who embark on spiritual practice is far less than one tenth of that of future generations.

However, those who embark on the path of cultivation will also die. No one will pave the way forward, and there will only be darkness.

Even Xu Yuanming went in the wrong direction at the very beginning and lost his life many times because of these things. Therefore, his foundation of using his body as a seed system was very poor in the early days.

There is no "Tao Te Ching" like in later generations that can build a perfect wheel sea realm, nor is there a corresponding system of scriptures.

This also led to Xu Yuanming's Wheel Sea Realm. When he first started practicing, he was just exploring on his own, and was not as strong as those who attained enlightenment in later generations. Now, with "The Original True Explanation", he can make up for the previous shortcomings.
