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

Chapter 117 Becoming King
All the myriad paths of the heavens erupted in unison to test this newcomer.

The universe is in a state of flux, welcoming the birth of this new king.

Lingbao Tianzun noticed the Emperor's change and said, "The accumulation is still insufficient."

He is now only a hair's breadth away from the realm of Immortal King, but he just can't seem to cross that line.

When the Emperor was undergoing the tribulation to attain enlightenment, he felt that the obstacle that had been hindering him in the dark had loosened slightly.

The Taiyin Emperor looked up at the phantom in the chaos and said, "With the Emperor's talent, this is just the natural course of events."

"Fellow Daoist Taiyin, you must be nearing your end." He had already achieved the Dao of the Immortal Sun Emperor in the Mortal World.

The Emperor of Taiyin laughed heartily, the meaning of which needs no further explanation.

All beings who had established themselves in the realm of immortality noticed this scene in the chaos at the same moment.

Those emperors who came to the immortal realm from the mortal world were especially envious.

They chose to go to this realm because they lacked the talent.

Although they triggered calamities to achieve the realm of true immortals, there are still many difficulties in advancing further.

The lack of accumulation for the transformation into a mortal immortal slowed them down considerably.

Among the heroes of the world, there are as many as carp crossing a river.

When they finally managed to become Great Emperors, they arrived in the Immortal Realm only to find that Great Emperors were as common as cattle and horses.

Above the Great Emperor are True Immortals. But upon reaching the level of True Immortal, one discovers that an unparalleled genius has already achieved the status of a Mortal Immortal.

After becoming an invincible True Immortal, he was oppressed by the Immortal King to the point of being unable to lift his head.

"The more I think about it, the more upset I get. Let's find some geniuses from the Immortal Realm to vent our frustrations," suggested a Great Emperor who had just ascended from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Once the first person made the suggestion, the other emperors all responded.

Thus, a supreme battle erupted once again between the Immortal Realm and the mortal realm.

The changes in the human world are particularly evident. The once dormant world has become active again due to the changes in the chaos.

The light of the Great Dao shone forth, clearly revealing a scene in each realm—the scene of the Emperor undergoing tribulation.

Every secret realm was glowing, and the Emperor was undergoing a tremendous transformation, charging towards that supreme domain.

In the mortal realm, ancient beings recognized the figure undergoing tribulation.

"That is the Emperor, he is undergoing an unknown calamity."

Very few people know about the Empress Cheng's realm, so she didn't recognize it immediately.

However, they still clearly knew that the tribulations the Emperor had experienced were extremely terrifying.

It is far beyond any human calamity that can be compared to.

While the Immortal Realm was embroiled in chaos and the powerful figures of the mortal world were discussing the matter, the powerful figures of the Strange World were hoping that the Emperor could successfully overcome his tribulation.

The Emperor has stayed in the strange world the longest. If the other party successfully becomes an Immortal King, they will be able to get a share of the spoils no matter what.

When it comes to spiritual practice, anything goes, as long as it's not shameful.

In the midst of chaos, the calamity continues.

The physical calamities surged, but when they struck the Emperor, they did not cause much damage.

The five secret realms activated simultaneously, displaying the power to create the world, and the overflowing fragments of time impacted every realm.

"If the opponent successfully overcomes the tribulation, they will at least be a powerful Immortal King," commented Ancient Yuan Immortal King.

The sheer scale and power of the event deeply moved him.

"The world may really be about to change," a sense of unease rose in the heart of the Ancient Yuan Immortal King.

Li Xuan watched everything in the chaos the entire time.

Judging from the current situation, the tribulation of the primordial spirit should also be unable to stop the Emperor.

With two Celestial Kings, this realm will surely prosper in the future.

In the midst of chaos, the Emperor reached the most difficult step.

A special power bursts forth from the physical body, and the fire of the primordial spirit burns fiercely, resisting this destructive power.

The calamity relentlessly assaulted the Emperor's primordial spirit, carrying out its final judgment.

A vast phantom appeared, giving rise to all things in heaven and earth.

"The secret of the character '皆' should evolve."

The Emperor has been preparing for this moment for a long time.

Once you enter the realm of immortality, the amplifying effect of the "All" secret technique becomes negligible.

The realm of humanity is completely different from the realm of immortality.

As his most prized secret technique, he was unwilling to let the "All" secret technique decline.

After resolving his own problems, he began preparations.

He looked down on the "All" secret technique in the True Immortal realm; the "All" secret technique usable in the Immortal King realm was the real trump card.

With a guaranteed tenfold increase in strength, no Celestial King can afford to underestimate this change.

In the midst of calamity, the light of the Great Dao once again shines upon the world.

This time, the Emperor's figure moved in accordance with the Great Dao.

The secret of the character "皆" was in his hands; he disassembled it and re-evolved it.

During the tribulation of the primordial spirit, in each of the five secret realms, there was a phantom sitting cross-legged, pulsating along with the Emperor.

"Reversing Yin and Yang, change!"

The phantoms in the five secret realms broke free of their physical forms and merged with the Great Dao.

The tribulation of the primordial spirit, which should have been nearing its end, has now become overwhelming.

This time it's no longer a test, but a complete annihilation of this being.

Lingbao Tianzun was the first to notice the Emperor's change and exclaimed in surprise, "What wrathful act has Fellow Daoist Emperor committed?"

Apart from the Emperor himself, no one knows what happened.

"Hahaha, no one can stand in my way when I want to accomplish something, not even heaven and earth," the Emperor replied domineeringly.

The secret of the character "皆" continued to evolve in his hands, developing in unpredictable directions.

The Emperor became the Heavenly Emperor, seated high in the nine heavens, looking down upon the calamities that sought to obliterate him.

As the river of time appeared, several streams of light flew out and entered the Emperor's body.

The flames of the Great Dao burn fiercely, contributing their strength to this newly born Great Secret.

"The Immortal King's Technique is complete!" the Emperor exclaimed excitedly.

The secret of the character "皆" was activated, and an extremely powerful aura erupted from his body.

The calamity of the primordial spirit had no choice but to retreat.

The supreme figure appeared in every realm at the same time, and countless people looked up to him.

The Great Way resonates, welcoming the birth of this new king.

With a thought, the Emperor broke through the boundary and appeared in the Immortal Realm.

A sense of familiarity welled up within him; this world welcomed his arrival.

Immortal Kings are among the top-tier combatants in any realm.

With a thought, the situation in the Immortal Realm was revealed to him without a doubt.

"I didn't think there was anything wrong with this realm before, but after standing in the Immortal King realm, I truly realized how fragile it is."

The golden road burst forth and flew towards the Heavenly Court.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on your successful advancement to Immortal King," said Lingbao Tianzun.

"I presume that Fellow Daoist Lingbao will also be able to enter this realm in a short time," said the Emperor.

The two chatted and laughed all the way until they arrived at a secret place in the Heavenly Court.

"Fellow Daoist, what happened during the primordial spirit tribulation that caused the tribulation, which was about to disappear, to surge again?" Lingbao Tianzun asked.

The Emperor did not conceal anything and told the other party what had happened. After hearing this, even the Celestial Venerable Lingbao was shocked.

"Can the current 'All' secret technique achieve the same instantaneous advancement as the Human Realm?"

The Emperor chuckled awkwardly, his face showing embarrassment: "With the current 'All' Secret Technique, only I can freely increase my strength tenfold; for the others, it depends on probability."

Lingbao Tianzun was not too surprised by this result; only the founder of a path can unleash the full power of this method.

In the blink of an eye, the two arrived at Li Xuan's location.

"Fellow Daoist, what are your plans for the future?" Li Xuan asked.

The Emperor has now reached the Immortal King realm, so there's not much point in keeping him here.

Moreover, as the founder of the ancient Heavenly Court, how could the Emperor possibly submit to anyone?

"I'll stay here with you for now; I don't have anywhere else to go," the Emperor replied.

Subsequently, the Emperor shared his improved version of the "All" secret with everyone.

When Li Xuan heard that it could only be triggered with a certain probability, he recalled some unpleasant memories.

Before he transmigrated, he played a game called "Mi" and took a liking to a general character. He spent 160 draws to finally get the character.

"Probably not. I've already time-traveled, I don't believe I'd still be this dark-skinned," Li Xuanxin thought.

The Emperor's improved version of the "All" secret technique was modified in some details to better suit his needs.

In the realm of Immortal Kings, any secret technique that can enhance one's strength is incredibly precious, let alone a secret technique like the "All-Word Secret" which comes without any cost.

The three men discussed the Dao again after thousands of years, their own Dao principles mutually corroborating each other.

The light of the Great Dao never ceased, and its supreme aura enveloped the world.

"Alright, now it's time to give back to this realm," the Emperor said, rising to his feet.

"Fellow Daoist, wait a moment." Li Xuan called out to the Emperor.

"If I encounter any problems with my fellow Daoist, we can also get out unscathed."

When he gave back to his ancestors, he exposed his own Dao imprint, attracting strange beings.

If the Emperor encounters any problems, the two of them can intervene and remain unharmed.

After bidding farewell to Lingbao Tianzun, the Emperor Venerable took the lead in giving back to the Immortal Realm.

With the support of the two Celestial Kings, the spiritual energy of this Celestial Realm fragment has greatly increased.

"Does this thing, fellow Daoist?" the Emperor asked.

In the chaos, a broken portal floats, stained with blood, still incredibly malevolent despite the passage of time.

He noticed this portal because it contained an aura that shared the same origin as the dark matter he had once been tainted with.

"That place was once the gateway to another realm. After a great war between immortals, both the immortal realm and the other realm closed that gateway."

"Until the appearance of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who entered through the Western Heavenly Gate of the Immortal Realm and used his Immortal King Primordial Spirit to forcefully open the gate."

After hearing all this, the Emperor became even more curious about the Desolate Emperor.

Ever since he entered the Immortal Realm, he had been hearing the legend of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

From the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to the Immortal Realm, every place bears the legends of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

The two did not dwell on the issue any longer, and with one step, they returned to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths once again.

The Emperor generously gave back to this world, and with the support of the two Immortal Kings, this shattered world regained some of its former glory.

Unconsciously, the connection between the two became increasingly close, and all the details of this realm were revealed to him.

Seeing his disciple achieve the realm of Immortal King, the Underworld Lord was somewhat surprised, but then he felt relieved.

A disciple need not be inferior to his master!
After spending hundreds of years in the mortal realm, the Emperor returned to his home in a strange world.

"Fellow Daoist, I have an idea!"

Then, the Emperor revealed all his thoughts.

Having witnessed the shattered Immortal Realm, he no longer held much hope for its restoration.

If something is already broken, why not create a new world from this broken world?

May this new world give birth to more Celestial Kings.

"Do you have any further ideas, fellow Daoist?" Li Xuan asked.

The Emperor shook his head. This idea came to him suddenly, and it would take some time to perfect it.

"I have an idea to fuse these three realms into one, dividing them into the human realm, the earth realm, and the immortal realm. As long as one's cultivation is sufficient, one can trigger a calamity and arrive at a higher world."

After listening to Li Xuan's idea, the Emperor considered its feasibility.

After a long silence, the Emperor slowly said, "To realize this method, three Immortal Kings need to work together to create it, which will ensure the stability of the world in the future."

"If we could obtain the World Tree, it would be even more perfect!"

Subsequently, Li Xuan explained the World Tree to the Emperor.

The most famous figure in the World Tree is undoubtedly the Willow God, who single-handedly ventured into another realm, fought against several Celestial Kings, and ultimately managed to escape unscathed.

It also nurtured geniuses like the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who were born to face calamities.

The World Tree last appeared in the hands of the Ten Crown King, but unfortunately, many things disappeared after the Chaotic Ancient War.

“If we want to construct that world, only the three Immortal Kings can do it right now,” Li Xuan said.

Knowing all this, the Emperor said, "When another king emerges in the Immortal Realm in the future, we will completely establish that time."

With a thought, a special channel appeared.

Like the path to immortality through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, any being with supreme combat power can enter the Immortal Realm through that passage.

After completing everything, the two returned to the Immortal Realm.

As expected, the two returned to the Immortal Realm.

After returning to the Immortal Realm, the Emperor continued to deduce the secrets of the character "皆" (jiē), striving towards a higher realm.

Lingbao Tianzun started with the secret of character formation, aiming to make this secret method shine with the splendor of a celestial king.

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

The conflict between the beings of the celestial realm and those of the lower realm has reached a certain point.

After the Celestial King's nurturing, many beings in this realm took the opportunity to break through to the True Immortal realm, achieving a leap in their life level.

Those emperors who came to this world from strange worlds and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are no less impressive, and many of the pioneers have already established themselves in the realm of True Immortals.

Neither realm's beings looked down on the other, and the arrogance of the Immortal Realm further fueled the discontent of the beings across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Driven by those with ulterior motives, the conflict between the people of the two realms was fully activated.

A vast war between immortals thus erupted.

All cultivators below the True Immortal level participated in this war.

In the Heavenly Court, Li Xuan watched the battle unfold, his eyes calm and unwavering.

He had anticipated this outcome; it was destined to happen from the moment the passage between the two worlds was opened.

"This battle, which has been dead for too long, will be beneficial to the future development of a world that has been stagnant for too long," the Emperor said coldly.

He had little affection for the creatures of this realm to begin with, and was even more indifferent to the battle unfolding before him.

He did not kill any living beings in a world that blocked his path to immortality, but instead gave back to that world, which is already extremely benevolent.

While the two were talking, someone from outside approached Li Xuan in a hurry.

The visitors were none other than the Western Emperor and his wife.

Li Xuan looked surprised; he hadn't expected the two of them to come looking for him.

"Heavenly Emperor, Wu Shi has sent a message..." As he spoke, the Western Emperor stopped and looked up at Wu Tian.

Wu Tian picked up the conversation, saying, "He encountered something strange there, and he is now likely facing an unfortunate situation."

Upon hearing this, the Western Emperor could no longer contain himself, and a look of sorrow appeared on his face.
