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

Chapter 123 Looking for Relics
Even for a celestial king who is new to the path, the distance he travels is extremely far.

"Heavenly Emperor, can the power of faith grant one kingship?" asked Amitabha Buddha Emperor.

Li Xuan remained silent; he could not answer that question.

Seeing this, Amitabha Buddha the Great Emperor stopped asking questions.

Every being's path to becoming king is unique, and only those who experience it firsthand will know its secrets.

"This junior thanks the senior for clarifying my doubts," said the Great Emperor Amitabha, bowing.

"The power of faith is ultimately an external force; everything must be based on oneself," Li Xuan admonished.

After taking his leave, the Amitabha Buddha Emperor began to re-examine the divine runes, intending to make them one of the foundations of his rule.

Mount Sumeru, under the guidance of Amitabha Buddha, has been the site of numerous miraculous phenomena over the years.

Buddhism has long since become the top faith in this world. Buddhists regard Mount Sumeru as the only place in their hearts, and countless beings cross the endless void just to come to Mount Sumeru to pay homage to the Buddha.

Several native immortals of the Immortal Realm have submitted to Mount Sumeru as protectors.

As Amitabha Buddha scattered his transformed divine patterns across the world surrounding Mount Sumeru, a wondrous feeling arose within my heart.

"This method is feasible!" Amitabha Buddha exclaimed excitedly.

While the cultivation of a True Immortal is not insignificant, the path to Immortal King is the true and righteous road.

No cultivator doesn't aspire to reach a higher realm.

"The sixth secret realm beyond the five great secret realms, perhaps I can rely on the power of faith to perfect it."

Various teachings about the future lingered in his mind, and the eyes of Amitabha Buddha shone with a brilliant light.

In the years that followed, Amitabha Buddha Emperor, like a mortal, sealed himself away and measured the immortal realm with his footsteps.

Wherever he went, he spread the teachings like any other Buddhist.

……

In the Heavenly Court, ever since the departure of the Amitabha Buddha Emperor, Li Xuan has been deducing the origin of this tree trunk.

"How about we extrapolate the scenario across the entire timeline?"

Li Xuan was fully aware of the risks involved.

During the chaotic ancient times, the Crimson King and other immortal kings from other realms traversed the river of time to deduce the trajectory of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths in later generations.

Even if they deduced the existence of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who could intervene in later generations across the river of time.

As a result, their attempt to transcend the river of time was intercepted, and even their memory of deducing the future was blocked.

It wasn't until the Desolate Emperor swept away the alien realm in one fell swoop that they learned of what had happened in the past.

Although he was deducing events that occurred thousands of years ago, it still caused some ripples.

If any accident occurs, the consequences are unknown.

In his mind, Li Xuan deduced various causes and effects.

Afterwards, he deduced the origin of the object using his own method.

In a way, he sensed that this thing was related to some beings from before the chaos of antiquity.

A supreme being who can evade the encirclement and attack of true immortals must be extraordinary.

Unfortunately, the opponent was merely a Supreme Being, and could not attract the attention of many Celestial Kings.

Even if I pay attention to it, I won't spend too much time or energy on it.

Another century has passed, and Li Xuan still has gained nothing.

Finally, he made up his mind to go against the tide of time.

Even if it means getting entangled in all sorts of karma, he is willing to bear it.

In the blink of an eye, the river of time appears.

We tread the long river, going against the current, to find that unnoticed part of history.

He obtained a vague coordinate from the World Tree, which helped him determine roughly that period of time.

Those who live through turbulent times will inevitably bear many consequences.

Li Xuan was also well-prepared, having inscribed countless runes around his primordial spirit to minimize the impact of the River of Time.

Soon, he arrived at that era.

In the blink of an eye, the power of the physical body broke through numerous obstacles and appeared in that era.

"At this time, the number of Celestial Kings was much smaller compared to later generations."

Li Xuan observed the gap between this period and later generations.

When he tried to take it a step further, he found that some unseen force was locking onto him.

Taking another step forward would trigger an unimaginable catastrophe.

Seeing this, he put his mind at ease.

During this period, no one paid attention to him; he was just a passerby, unable to interfere in the slightest.

In the blink of an eye, he had already traversed the entire Immortal Realm.

The situation on the other side of the boundary sea is no different from now, except that the seal was more solid back then.

Suddenly, a voice reached his ears: "The World Tree is there!"

Upon hearing this, several streams of light appeared in the chaos, all of them being true immortal powerhouses.

Li Xuan followed this group of True Immortal experts and flew towards the center of the battlefield.

In the blink of an eye, he descended upon a realm.

This world has lost a lot after a long period of fighting.

It was a completely desolate world.

The appearance of these true immortals brought a final touch of color to this desolate world.

"You dare to come here even if you're at the Supreme Realm? The aftershocks of the battle will wipe you out."

Even so, quite a few supreme beings are still trying to take advantage of the chaos and obtain the treasures of this place.

Soon, a chaotic battle broke out.

The true immortal's attack was terrifyingly powerful; this realm did not last long before turning to ashes and disappearing into the chaos.

At that moment, somewhere else, a being spoke again: "The World Tree is there."

This time, however, the powerful figure no longer blindly pursued and killed; instead, he reached out and captured an entire universe.

When they scanned the area with their divine senses, they found no living beings.

Everyone had only one thought in their minds: they had been scammed.

In a fit of rage, a true immortal shattered several universes.

They stopped their pursuit, set off back, and told the Celestial King about the situation.

Soon, peace returned to the area.

Aside from a few supreme beings who were unwilling to give up, they chased after it in that direction.

Li Xuan looked somewhat surprised; he had actually sensed a familiar aura.

Without hesitation, he chased after it in one direction.

The last place where the breath disappeared was in that direction.

In the blink of an eye, he had already located the place where that wisp of energy was.

Soon, he witnessed a shocking scene.

"Fellow Daoist!" the other party said, looking in Li Xuan's direction.

Li Xuan's expression changed as he stared at the other person, unable to calm down for a long time.

He immediately calmed himself down and remained silent.

"Due to the karmic consequences of the long river of time, I cannot say too much. The only thing I can say is that that secret realm has immense significance."

Then, the opponent transformed into a rain of light and vanished into the universe.

After he disappeared, a branch of the World Tree fell there.

Finally, that section of branch was obtained by a True Immortal Realm expert.

“How could that supreme being be me?” Li Xuan murmured.

The void remained silent for a moment, without any response.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that there must be a great secret in that realm.

To discover its secrets, one must actually step into the ruins.

Afterwards, Li Xuan followed these creatures and determined the location of the ruins.

Then, using a secret technique, he deduced his place in later generations.

After that, Li Xuan returned to the future without any obstacles.

……

"How could it be me?" He still couldn't figure out the cause and effect.

The aura emanating from that supreme being was extremely strange, yet it perfectly matched that era, clearly indicating that he was a being from that time.

"It seems we need to head to that ruin as soon as possible," Li Xuan said.

Soon, through the marks left by the passage of time, he determined the location of the ruins.

Li Xuan did not immediately head to the ruins. He knew the trip would not be smooth, and he needed to prepare for the worst.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared in the nine heavens and ten earths.

Countless years have passed, and under the special circumstances of the formation of the Three Realms, the spiritual energy of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths has increased several times over.

The number of powerful individuals born is even greater than in the Primordial Era.

The number of powerful emperors has increased several times over.

The forbidden zone of life has become an ancient myth, and beings of emperor level have found a better place to go.

This time, Li Xuan came to see the God Emperor. So many years have passed, and with the spiritual energy of this realm several times more abundant, he should have completed most of his eleventh transformation.

Soon, an ancient coffin belonging to a deity appeared.

With one hand reaching out, the ancient coffin broke open, revealing the creature inside.

"Fellow Daoist Divine Emperor, it's been a long time!" Li Xuan said.

The "fallen" god-emperor in the ancient coffin of the gods slowly opened his eyes, awakening from his slumber.

"Fellow Daoist, what is this...?" the Divine Emperor asked in confusion.

He was unaware of many things during his years of slumber.

Li Xuan did not hide anything and told the other party about everything.

"Truly, the world has changed beyond recognition!" the Divine Emperor exclaimed.

"Fellow Daoist, have you come to see me about something?"

"I will be leaving this realm for a long time, and there will be no more Immortal Kings to guard it. You are the only one who is currently the strongest in this realm."

During my absence, please remain in charge, fellow Daoist.

The God Emperor did not refuse; given his current situation, he was only one step away from the eleventh transformation.

The divine silkworm undergoes eleven transformations, each one incredibly powerful.

She is slightly better than the immortals of the mortal world.

"Fellow Daoist, the rest is now in your hands!"

Li Xuan handed the Azure Sword to the other party, hoping it could buy some time if a Celestial King tried to intercept them.

Afterwards, Li Xuan set up a concealment array outside the Three Realms, so that even the Immortal King could not immediately determine the exact location of this place.

The golden road flew into the chaos, heading towards its destination.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the location of the ruins.

"The aura of a Celestial King!"

Li Xuan's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

Its divine sense probed every inch of heaven and earth, seeking to obtain more information from them.

"Those people back then were really frugal; they left nothing behind," Li Xuan remarked.

With a flash of light, that branch of the World Tree appeared.

A faint glow flowed, and the ancient patterns shone with renewed brilliance, as if something primal within them was drawing it in.

In an instant, he entered the ruins.

Upon entering, Li Xuan noticed the problem here.

The space here is broken and fragmented; over the long years, many things have disappeared.

He reached out one hand, wanting to explore the secrets of this world.

Unfortunately, he encountered obstacles before he could explore very far.

"It's not easy!"

Without hesitation, Li Xuan activated the Golden Path and continued flying deeper into the distance.

As far as the eye could see, there was only deathly silence.

The corpses of many powerful True Immortals were scattered about, having suffered greatly in life and perished in hardship.

When he ventured deeper into a certain location, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth there vanished completely.

"A land devoid of spirits!" Li Xuan exclaimed in surprise.

I never imagined that such a dangerous and perilous place would exist here.

Even true immortals who enter such desolate places will die of old age because they cannot replenish their spiritual energy.

Only a Celestial King-level expert can survive in such a perilous and dangerous place.

Li Xuan cautiously advanced towards the deepest part, the appearance of the Land of Absolute Spirits forcing him to be careful.

In this sacred land, the branches of the World Tree did not return to the ordinary; instead, they underwent significant changes.

This stark contrast in the scene intensified his wariness of the place.

The imperial light shone brightly on this desolate place, appearing extremely dazzling.

He quickly realized the problem.

Why didn't the immortals who once entered this place take this message out with them?
Soon, a floating corpse answered his question.

The corpse had an aged face, and everything inside had long since vanished. It had not suffered any harm in its life, but had simply died of old age.

“The immortals who once came here all died of old age here.”

The corpse of the True Immortal did not affect his determination to move forward. On the contrary, he recklessly released his own aura, trying to draw out the hidden being.

His sixth secret realm is the Chaotic World, which, combined with the Immortal Pool, ensures that even if all worlds perish, he will remain immortal.

With a single punch, the powerful force tore apart a large area of ​​space, but it returned to normal in an instant.

The branches of the World Tree exude a mystical aura, recreating a part of its former glory.

The golden road flew towards a direction in the void, where something attracted the branches of the world's trees.

There is no time in the void; he doesn't know how many years he has traveled through, but he has never reached the end.

"If you keep going in circles, there will be no end."

Only by breaking through this place with supreme magical power can one leave this place.

With this in mind, Li Xuan did not hesitate, clenched his fist with one hand, and swung it forcefully forward.

An unparalleled burst of fist light erupted, and the power of the Great Dao impacted every inch of heaven and earth.

boom!
This void did not block their way for long; a light appeared ahead.

The golden road flew towards the land of light.

In the blink of an eye, Li Xuan's figure landed in the light.

Suddenly, the World Tree branch in his hand flew into the void in front of him.

Then, a small tree appeared.

Endless radiance flowed upon it, and various great principles fell within it.

All sorts of wonders fell upon it, and everything seemed so harmonious.

"world Tree!"

As his divine sense swept over every detail, Li Xuan finally confirmed that the tree before him was indeed the World Tree.

He soon discovered that there was something wrong with the World Tree.

Beneath the World Tree's flourishing exterior lies a wisp of decaying energy.

"Gentlemen, you've been watching for so long, aren't you going to come out and greet us?" Li Xuan shouted into the void.

He had noticed these gazes from the void ever since he entered the Land of Desolation.

The appearance of the Land of Absolute Spirits is already abnormal, and with the World Tree appearing here, how could it be ordinary?

Sure enough, as the words fell, several illusory figures appeared from the void.

Their condition is very peculiar; they are able to remain alive only because of the special energy here.

The leader spoke first, saying, "The Emperor Light Immortal King is indeed terrifying; we are all ashamed of our inferiority."

With a wave of his hand, the World Tree flew into the other party's side.

"May I ask what brings you here, fellow Daoist?"

"world Tree!"

These words immediately chilled the atmosphere.
