Covering the sky: Traveling through the holy body, suppressing the dark turmoil

Chapter 101 Lingbao Eighth Generation
Time flies, all things are born and die, and this cannot be changed.

Thousands of years have passed, and life has come and gone, but there are always supreme beings who remain immortal.

He had been struggling to find a suitable candidate to keep in this realm, but after a moment's thought, he decided not to dwell on the matter any longer.

If a suitable person really can't be found, just let the Lord of the Underworld do it.

After that, he devoted himself to the Dharma of the Eighth Incarnation.

Time has little effect on him, but he wants things to move quickly.

The once bustling place has fallen silent again; it was all just a fleeting dream.

After living through three lifetimes, Chen Ying chose to go to a strange world, which suited her better than this place.

Before leaving, Li Xuan gave her the Myriad Spirits Banner, which could erase the Dao patterns left by the Emperor in that realm and also protect her safety.

Since obtaining the modified version of the Divine Silkworm Eleven Transformations, the Divine Emperor of the Ancient Star has been in seclusion for thousands of years.

If the mark of the Divine Emperor had not remained forever, they would have already been preparing for their ancestor's funeral.

Meanwhile, the God Emperor was in a secret place.

Unlike before, there are two God Emperors here.

The two had the same aura, and even their markings were identical.

Unbelievable!

At this moment, the God Emperor on the right opened his eyes, and the opening and closing of his gaze contained the ultimate truth of heaven and earth.

The "God Emperor" beside him is the result of his long years.

The Divine Silkworm undergoes nine transformations, each of which involves shedding its old body. After attaining enlightenment, the things it sheds are no longer as simple as they were before.

Instead, it is about shedding the "god" to bring forth a new "god".

This is a very general concept, encompassing the primordial spirit, the physical body, and one's own laws.
A new being emerges from the past.

The eleven transformations of the divine silkworm truly reveal its miraculous power.

Looking at the part of "god" that he had shed beside him, the God Emperor remained expressionless. Then, he activated his profound power, and the old "god" shattered, turning into fragments of laws that flowed into his body.

Although he still had a long lifespan left in this life, he was unwilling to wait any longer.

His fifth life began ahead of schedule.

The power of the old gods flowed into the God-Emperor's body, resonating with his Daoist teachings.

At the very center, an unparalleled figure controls everything.

With a wave of his hand, the vast power under his control transformed into a bright path.

He strode out and walked into the distance.

At the same time, every inch of the God Emperor's skin was glowing, resonating with the myriad energies.

Around him, mysterious patterns released immense power.

The Divine Emperor embraced the primordial unity, and his mind had already entered another vast world.

Outside, an overwhelming force was impacting every inch of the ancient planet Shencan.

Fortunately, all of this did not last long, and the God Emperor regained control of everything.

At this moment, he was in a very special state, his surging power had accumulated to a certain degree and needed to be released.

The Divine Emperor, as expected of a genius of unparalleled talent, activated his profound power and completely forged his path in this life.

A tremendous impact resounded through the heavens, and the blood and energy surged to the sky.

An extremely powerful figure emerged, overwhelming all other forces.

The fifth generation has successfully begun!
As the God Emperor reflected on everything that had happened, a series of insights unfolded in his mind.

His path shouldn't have been like this.

The essence of the Eleven Transformations of the Divine Silkworm is different from that of the Mortal Immortal's metamorphosis; in his next life, he can try a completely different path.

However, it's still too early to say all this.

After the God Emperor consolidated the Great Dao of this era, he proceeded with his own deductions.

Ten thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, yet spiritual cultivation in the human realm remains extremely difficult.

In the next 20,000 years, the strongest beings to emerge were only at the Quasi-Emperor level.

The difference is considerable.

Another ten thousand years have passed, and countless generations of beings have come and gone, yet not a single supreme being has been born.

Myriad paths block the way ahead, and the path of cultivation is fraught with difficulties.

"I'd rather sacrifice a lifetime of cultivation than not strive for a lifetime of immortality."

There were angry roars of resentment from living beings, who fought against this world with all their might.

In the end, all that was left was a pile of ashes.

All of this did not cause any ripples in the grand scheme of things, nor did it leave much of a trace.

In the Heavenly Court, Li Xuan awoke from his seclusion and looked at the Four Swords of Zhuxian of Lingbao Tianzun.

The killing intent emanating from the Four Swords of Zhuxian grew increasingly intense, and various strange phenomena appeared. The supreme power was about to break through these barriers and give birth to an unparalleled being.

"In not long, the Celestial Venerable Lingbao will return once again."

After that, he spared a portion of his attention to observe all the changes in the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

After that, he withdrew from worldly affairs and continued his seclusion.

The wheels of history keep turning and never stop.

Seventy thousand years have passed, yet they have left few traces on Li Xuan.

On this day, the four swords of Zhuxian rang out in unison, their fierce killing intent piercing the sky. The Zhuxian Formation Diagram trembled, and strands of the Great Dao light descended.

Combined with the Four Swords of Zhuxian, it unleashed astonishing power.

Li Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

"The Celestial Venerable Lingbao is returning!"

After that day, he began to frequently appear beside the Four Swords of Zhuxian to ensure that no accidents would happen.

The strange phenomena of the Four Swords of Zhuxian lasted for hundreds of years, but Lingbao Tianzun did not return.

Li Xuan was not anxious. If it were that easy to return, then the Eighth Generations would not have been so extraordinary.

At this moment, within the Four Swords of Zhuxian, a Taoist stood amidst chaos, muttering to himself.

"who am I?"

"Where did I come from, and where am I going?"

"Why am I here?"

But no matter how he called out, he was met with only silence.

There is no time in the chaos, and the Taoist just kept walking forward.

One year, ten years, a hundred years...

The Taoist priest didn't know how long he had been walking, but he still couldn't find a way out.

On this day, the Taoist found some usable materials in the chaos, which were fragments of his body that he had shed in the chaos.

"Bump!"

The Taoist instinctively pieced together the materials in the direction of creating a certain object.

I don't know how much time passed before these things were finally pieced together.

A sword covered in cracks!
As soon as the Taoist priest grasped the strangely shaped sword, a sense of familiarity arose spontaneously.

When he grasped the strange sword, the cracks on it began to heal, evolving towards completeness.

After an unknown amount of time, the sword was finally successfully forged.

The Taoist priest's face was now resolute as he looked up at the chaotic sky.

Holding a three-foot-long sword, he pointed it at the chaotic sky.

"Open the sky! Open the sky!"

A voice echoed in his heart.

The Taoist priest, as if possessed, gripped the long sword and swung it forcefully towards the sky.

The three-foot-long sword flashed with a dazzling light, adding a touch of color to this chaotic world.

"boom!"

A tremendous roar shook the heavens and the earth, and then a huge crack appeared in this chaotic world.

Light from the outside world shines into this realm through this crack.

A glint of light shot from the Taoist's chaotic eyes, and he remembered everything. He was the Celestial Venerable of the Spiritual Treasure, invincible throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, his power suppressing all the myriad paths of the universe…

Outside, the Four Swords of Zhuxian erupted in chaos, unleashing their supreme power and overwhelming all realms.

From the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram, boundless rain of light flew out, eventually slowly condensing into the figure of a Taoist.

"I am Lingbao Tianzun!"

The sound resounded throughout the heavens, accompanied by countless cries of agony, and an overwhelming power surged towards the heavens and the earth.

The overwhelming imperial might and supreme power are converging.

At the same time, the four swords of Zhuxian, which had long since transformed into celestial artifacts, shone with dazzling light, illuminating the three thousand realms.

All these changes are so vast that it's hard not to notice them.

Lingbao Tianzun took a step forward, reconstituted everything from the past, and reached a higher level.

"Is this the eighth incarnation? This lifespan has no end!"

Even the Celestial Venerable Lingbao found it difficult to remain calm at this moment.

If one is already past the prime of life after eight lifetimes, then why is there talk of becoming an immortal after nine lifetimes?
Numerous questions lingered in Lingbao Tianzun's mind.

"Congratulations, Senior Lingbao, on living eight lifetimes," Li Xuan's voice rang out.

Lingbao Tianzun came to his senses and looked at the person in front of him.

"Senior, are you wondering why you've aged so much in just eight lifetimes?" Li Xuan asked.

Although Lingbao Tianzun was not old, he always felt that something was missing.

Immediately afterwards, Li Xuan told the other party what he knew in the way he had deduced it.

After hearing this, Lingbao Tianzun seemed to be deep in thought, deducing the secrets behind it.

After a long time, he came back to his senses.

"What you said is correct," Lingbao said with a hint of helplessness.

"But I feel that starting this final life will be extremely difficult."

His lifespan is unlimited, but that doesn't mean his condition will remain indefinitely.

If things continue like this, he might as well just grow old and die.

At that time, it would have been difficult for him to die!

The proud and strong-willed Lingbao Tianzun would not accept this ending.

"It's too early to worry about all this. If we don't survive in this realm, we might be able to survive in the Immortal Realm later," Li Xuan comforted him.

Lingbao Tianzun quickly regained his composure.

This life has just begun, and everything is still unknown.

At this moment, Li Xuan suddenly spoke up: "Senior Lingbao, I would like to spar with you to test my own strength."

Upon hearing this, Lingbao Tianzun's interest was piqued, and he also wanted to test how strong he was.

“But this realm is simply unable to withstand our attacks,” said Lingbao Tianzun.

Li Xuan had taken all of this into account, and with a wave of his hand, the Immortal Bell and the Desolate Tower flew into his body.

They fell into a mausoleum.

Over the long course of time, the First Realm Mausoleum has evolved to an unbelievable level.

With the added stability of the Desolate Tower and the Immortal Bell, he could at least exchange twenty blows with the Celestial Venerable Lingbao.

With Li Xuan's assurance, Lingbao Tianzun agreed to his request.

When Lingbao Tianzun entered this realm, he was astonished by its wonders.

However, this had no impact on the confrontation between the two.

The Immortal Bell and the Desolate Tower stand in the void of this realm, hanging down endless chains of law to firmly stabilize this realm.

Li Xuan drew his Azure Sword, raising his own power to its peak, and confronted Lingbao Tianzun.

"Alright, since that's the case, I won't hold back anymore."

Four streams of light flew out from between Lingbao Tianzun's eyebrows, drawing upon the Four Swords of Zhuxian, carrying the power to destroy the world, and attacking Li Xuan.

In their first move, both of them were tentative and did not use their full strength.

The First Realm Mausoleum, with the stability of two great immortal artifacts, remained unchanged.

Immediately, neither of them held back, and they clashed with their strongest power.

The four swords of Zhuxian unleashed a terrifying killing intent, staining this realm crimson.

While the Azure Sword was slightly inferior, it was not overly disadvantaged either.

The Holy Body's vast blood energy instantly overwhelmed the killing intent of the Four Swords of Immortal Slaughter. But how could the Heavenly Venerable of Spirit Treasures be so simple? He grabbed the Immortal Slaughter Formation Diagram with one hand and pushed the Four Swords of Immortal Slaughter to their limit.

For a time, the two were caught in a strange balance.

But the opponent was Lingbao Tianzun, who reached out with one hand, unleashing unparalleled power, and attacked Li Xuan.

The physical strength of Lingbao Tianzun is in no way inferior to that of the Holy Body, which is renowned for its robust physique.

The sounds of fists and feet clashing resounded throughout the world, and the shockwaves from each strike were enough to severely injure even an enlightened being.

In the blink of an eye, the two had completed their final confrontation.

"boom!"

Li Xuan withdrew his magical power and returned to an ordinary life.

The celestial bell and the desolate tower, suspended high in the sky, teetered on the brink of collapse, having reached their limit.

“Fellow Daoist’s talent is exceptional; your future achievements will surely far surpass mine,” said Lingbao Tianzun calmly.

The opponent, with the cultivation of seven lifetimes, was able to defeat him, who was eight lifetimes in total, without being at a disadvantage in the slightest.

When he reaches the eighth generation, he will surely surpass him by a great margin.

"Not at all, it was all thanks to your leniency, senior," Li Xuan said humbly.

Lingbao Tianzun laughed heartily and stopped worrying about it.

……

“I have a feeling that your eighth incarnation won’t be that simple,” said Lingbao Tianzun.

The stronger you are, the more difficult it will be to transform yourself in the future.

But if successful, the improvement will be enormous.

The two men discussed the Dao for a thousand years regarding the ninth incarnation, and both gained a great deal from it.

In this life, Lingbao Tianzun no longer chooses to go into seclusion, but begins to travel through the mortal world and experience all aspects of life.

Time meant nothing to him; ten thousand years and a million years made no difference.

Perhaps he can gain something from wandering through the world.

After Lingbao Tianzun left, Li Xuan continued to deduce the method for the next life.

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years have passed.

The spiritual energy between heaven and earth began to revive, and all paths manifested once more.

The cultivation of living beings is no longer restricted, and geniuses emerge like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

All sorts of beings stepped onto the ancient path of the stars to compete for the path of this lifetime.

In the Eternal Starfield, with the launch of the first spaceship, the people here began a unique path of evolution.

The combination of technology and ancient spiritual practices creates a unique and fascinating effect.

"Look at those ascetics, they spent their entire lives trying to withstand the laser cannon."

Sure enough, with a burst of intense light, a cultivator from the Dao Palace Secret Realm perished.

But not everyone thinks that way.

A young man named Daoyan was like that.

He disagreed with denying ancient techniques, but also disagreed with completely rejecting the results of technological development.

He chose to develop ancient arts based on technology.

And so, a special ascetic began his invincible path.

With the support of technology, Dao Yan's cultivation speed is extremely fast, and he has established a solid foundation far beyond that of ordinary people.

In just ten years, Dao Yan was able to defeat technologically advanced mechs using only his physical strength.

Even those genetically modified special humans are no match for him.

The technology of the Eternal Starfield is still in its early stages and has not yet reached the point where it can fly out of the starfield. They know very little about the outside world.
