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

Chapter 137 Changes
Fifty thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the dam has undergone tremendous changes.

The immortal kings who survived the great battle of the immortal kings have made further progress in their cultivation.

Furthermore, several Immortal Kings have reached the level of Emperor Light Immortal King.

At this moment, Li Xuan, who had been in seclusion, opened his eyes and looked into the distance.

An overwhelming pressure emanating from the soul erupted, its power unparalleled.

"It seems he has truly recovered!" Li Xuan said.

Emperor Hong radiated a dazzling imperial light, illuminating countless times and spaces.

The river of time surged, and several streams of energy flew out from it.

At this moment, he was completely different from ordinary quasi-immortal emperors.

The sense of transcendence is fully revealed, as if the deity is not tainted by the mortal world.

In the blink of an eye, the great cauldron that had accompanied him through countless battles reappeared.

The pressure of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor was released, causing all living beings in this realm to tremble.

"Such powerful imperial might!" Emperor Hong exclaimed.

Above the heavens, celestial beings awaken from their seclusion.

His gaze was intense, as he tried to figure out the source of his excitement.

Without divine intervention, the past and the future flashed before his eyes.

After a long while, the other party reluctantly gave up.

"It's related to the period of my childhood, and I can't interfere too much," Yao Di said helplessly.

Even the Celestial Emperor is supreme, yet there are still some things he cannot touch.

“A strong killing intent, but so what? If there is any cause and effect, let it all fall upon me.”

An emperor fears nothing.

The extraordinary phenomenon at the sea dike has persisted for a long time.

"I am the emperor, and I shall be invincible for eternity."

With a wave of his hand, he bestowed blessings.

Soon, Li Xuan appeared beside Emperor Hong.

With a sweep of divine sense, the other party's situation was immediately clear.

His opponent was not as strong as him, but his perfect aura was something he could not currently achieve.

"Congratulations on your return from the past!" Li Xuan said.

At this moment, the butcher and Emperor Hong arrived.

Sensing the aura emanating from the other, the two were startled.

“Perhaps it really is possible to take that step,” Hong Di said.

……

“There are four Quasi-Immortal Emperors guarding this place now. Even the power of darkness would have to think twice before trying to gain their strength,” the Butcher said.

There are only two recorded emperors in the Immortal Realm. The nameless Quasi-Immortal Emperor risked his life to buy time for the Immortal Realm, and it was not until the appearance of the Desolate Heaven Emperor that this long period of turmoil ended.

The number of emperors today surpasses that of any previous era, and their foundation is incomparable.

“There are traces of Immortal Emperors in the Dark Land. If they continue to cower there, it will be detrimental to us in the long run,” said Emperor Hong.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of those present changed slightly.

"Don't worry, at least for a long time, the Dark Lands won't send out an emperor," Li Xuan said.

Since the Celestial Emperor cannot interfere with this realm, the quasi-Celestial Emperor is far more precious than the Celestial Emperor.

The Celestial Emperors have even more brutal battlefields to conquer; their goal is to hunt down the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

Even with the presence of dark matter, it's impossible for them to produce too many Quasi-Immortal Emperors in a short period of time.

After some deduction, everyone confirmed Li Xuan's statement.

“Three emperors have fallen at once; they’ll definitely feel the pain for a while,” the Butcher said.

The four men spent several years discussing and formulating their next strategy.

Emperor Hong and Li Xuan take turns overseeing the dark front line every 100,000 years.

Ten thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the situation on this side of the dam is developing in a better direction.

Many Immortal Kings have established themselves in the realm of supreme giants, fighting against the Dark Immortal King to prove their own Great Dao.

On the Dark Front, Li Xuan had probed the Dark Ancient Land more than once, but the results were mediocre.

They stopped coming out altogether, waiting for plans from the rear.

"To be forced to this point as a quasi-Immortal Emperor is a disgrace indeed," the Holy Emperor roared.

In the blink of an eye, billions of miles of land sank.

The Quasi-Immortal Emperor's Great Dao was activated, and everything was restored.

The fortune teller standing nearby was also feeling unwell, but he didn't show it.

"So what if it's a great humiliation? We've been brought to our doorstep. It's already a miracle we're still alive," the fortune teller said.

But the anger that flickered deep in his eyes did not subside for a long time.

“The Dark Lands have now completely severed all contact, so the situation there must be just as bad,” the fortune teller said.

The two did not continue their discussion, but instead absorbed the essence of heaven and earth to repair themselves.

The aura of the Celestial Emperor surged and fell upon them, enhancing their cultivation.

Time slips away unnoticed, and 100,000 years pass in the blink of an eye.

Li Xuan returned to the boundary sea dike to improve his cultivation.

Not long after, the Emperor came knocking.

Now, he is surrounded by a dense imperial aura, far surpassing that of ordinary imperial light immortal kings.

Even among the Emperor Guang Immortal Kings, few beings could rival him.

“Fellow Daoist, I have come here to ask you for a favor,” said the Emperor.

A divine sense swept over the other party, and the Emperor's situation was laid bare.

“With your talent, fellow Daoist, you are still missing a crucial opportunity to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level,” Li Xuan said.

The Emperor did not hide anything and said, "I wish to borrow your strength to find that glimmer of opportunity in the long river of time."

He had this idea since he was exploring the ruins of the Immortal Realm.

He had already forged the sixth secret realm, and was only a hair's breadth away from becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

His sixth secret realm is where he forges all the laws of the world, laws that come from different eras.

These laws, though powerful, still have some flaws.

The beings who created this law, due to their limited lifespan and the gap in their cultivation, were unable to walk the path to perfection.

However, when they created the law, they captured a special trace of the Dao, and these were precisely what the Emperor lacked.

The law can be transmitted, but the traces of the way that created the law cannot be preserved.

“The mysteries within the river of time are beyond the comprehension of even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor,” Li Xuan said.

The Emperor naturally understood the cause and effect behind this, but this was the most suitable path at present.

"A Quasi-Immortal Emperor transcends worldly affairs and, upon traversing the long river of time, will not be tainted by too much karma," the Emperor said.

"Fellow Daoist left a Dao mark on my body to protect my true spirit from going astray."

After listening to the Emperor's words, Li Xuan pondered the cause and effect.

As the river of time appeared, a gaze that could astound the world shot out.

Looking into the future, a thick fog blocked his path, preventing him from seeing anything clearly.

Without any hesitation, the supreme Daoist magic was activated, piercing through the fog.

After everything was broken open, there was nothing ahead.

"The future is unclear, and I cannot know it either," Li Xuan said.

He did not stop there, leaving the Emperor behind to deduce the path ahead.

The river of time is too mysterious; he must ensure that no accidents occur on this trip.

A century has passed, and the two have worked together to deduce the results.

Aside from some fragmented pieces of time, no further news has emerged.

“Fellow Daoist, the risks on this path are no less than those on other paths,” Li Xuan said.

The Emperor, who had glimpsed some blurry fragments of time, did not back down.

His fighting spirit was boiling, and nothing could stop him from moving forward.

"The path of cultivation is inherently difficult; how can one succeed without paying a price?" the Emperor said.

Seeing this, Li Xuan held nothing back.

The sixth secret realm glowed, the river of time surged, and a segment of time was severed by him.

The intricate runes fell upon it, eventually transforming into a unique artifact.

"This item was taken from the river of time and can preserve the true spirit from perish. This cause and effect should be repaid by you, fellow Daoist," Li Xuan said. He minimized the interference of his own Great Dao so that when he became a Quasi-Immortal Emperor in the future, he would not be tainted by too much of his aura.

The Emperor looked at this special artifact and placed it in his primordial spirit.

A mysterious aura flowed through him, allowing him to temporarily transcend the river of time.

Soon, the Emperor activated his magic power, and a long river appeared.

"Fellow Daoist, see you another day!" said the Emperor.

Then, the All-Encompassing Secret was activated, and at that moment, the Emperor's strength increased tenfold.

But soon, the Emperor's figure transformed into countless strands, rushing towards the upper reaches of the river of time.

The most unique figure holds a special object, which serves as capital for his future return.

Watching the other party disappear into the river of time, Li Xuan activated the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Great Dao.

But this time, the geniuses were in complete chaos, and no one could investigate.

"I hope that Fellow Daoist Emperor can take this supreme step on this journey," Li Xuan said.

……

In the chaotic ancient times, a celestial king was creating laws.

At this moment, the traces of the Dao between heaven and earth materialized.

In a place where no one can explore, a phantom stands.

His eyes were empty and lifeless, yet a strange aura etched the traces of Dao here.

"Who am I? What am I doing?"

A glint of light flashed in his empty eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

And so, relying on instinct, they inscribed the traces of the creation of laws by living beings.

This process is very lengthy and involves very high risks.

On this side of the boundary sea dike, Li Xuan was deducing how to break through the Immortal Emperor's Dao traces.

The Immortal Emperor is too powerful; even a mere wisp of his Dao trace is beyond the reach of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

As for breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm, that seems a long way off.

As the highest level of beings on the path of evolution, even with the help of dark matter, the number of mysterious Immortal Emperors is not very large.

In the blink of an eye, 100,000 years have passed.

The situation on the Boundary Sea side remains stable, while the other side seems to have completely given up on the conquest.

The Emperor has not yet returned, and the path of inscribing the Dao traces of all laws is destined to be difficult.

At this moment, several figures arrived from the other side of the Boundary Sea.

They were shrouded in a dense aura of malevolence, their supreme power in no way inferior to that of the kings on this side of the Boundary Sea.

"The vastness of this place is unparalleled throughout history!" exclaimed the Emperor Taiyin.

After hundreds of thousands of years of trials, Wushi and Taiyin Human Emperor stood in the realm of Emperor Light Immortal King, while the rest were all supreme giants.

The arrival of the group attracted the attention of many people.

"When did the Emperor Light Immortal King become so common?"

In such a short time, less than a million years, four Emperor Light Immortal Kings have appeared.

The appearance of an Emperor Light Immortal King is extremely rare, perhaps only once in an entire era. The fact that so many have appeared in such a short period of time is truly astonishing.

“Fellow Daoist Lingbao!” said the Taiyin Human Emperor.

The two sides had not seen each other for tens of thousands of years, and everyone was excited.

When they learned of the great battle taking place here, the Taiyin Emperor and the others were all astonished.

Perhaps only here are immortal kings the least valuable.

“You all have made remarkable progress!” Li Xuan said.

The Yin Emperor looked at Li Xuan and showed a pleased expression.

We haven't seen each other for a long time, and the world has changed beyond recognition.

"I had already heard about the changes here while I was in the Boundary Sea, but I only truly understood the extent of these changes after seeing them for myself," the Taiyin Emperor remarked.

A century has passed, and Li Xuan personally recounts his own path to enlightenment to them.

While they cannot prevent them from breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, they can still strengthen themselves.

After that, Li Xuan appeared on the front line of the battlefield.

As time passed, Emperor Hong's cultivation advanced further.

Having served as a Quasi-Immortal Emperor in two lifetimes, his strength has reached a new level.

In the realm of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, what living being could be his opponent?

"It's a pity, the Immortal Emperor's Dao traces here are too terrifying, otherwise we would have been destroyed long ago," Hong Emperor said with dissatisfaction.

With a reach out, a figure fell from the void.

"Do you think you can investigate at will just because you have the protection of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?" Hongdi said coldly.

Soon, the Immortal King who fell from the void turned into ashes.

All the Immortal Emperor's Dao Marks here have been activated, isolating all external beings from entering.

A shimmering light appeared, and a figure materialized.

It draws in the energy within the Immortal Pool, which then settles upon it.

The incarnation is isolated from heaven and earth, and cannot be deduced.

"go with!"

This avatar transformed into a wisp of pure energy, evading the detection of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and stepped into the power of darkness.

Emperor Hong's expression changed several times as he watched no one enter the room.

The shock in his eyes lingered for a long time.

This method of evading the detection of both Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Immortal Emperors is something that is extremely difficult to achieve even in the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperors.

“Fellow Daoist…” Hongdi said.

“This avatar can only be used once, and it’s not as miraculous as you think,” Li Xuan said.

As expected, Hongdi was already incredibly powerful to be able to make a move even once, having managed to deceive the Immortal Emperor.

In the dark place, the fortune teller's expression changed.

"A mouse has gotten in!"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor's expression changed.

His divine sense erupted, probing the power of darkness time and time again.

But no matter how he searched, he still couldn't find the "rat".

"It seems the other party has ill intentions!" the Holy Emperor said.

The fortune teller tried several calculations, but still didn't gain much.

Unable to deduce the other's existence, the two had no choice but to set up several arrays to isolate the secrets of heaven, preventing the outside world from knowing what was happening here.

Outside, Li Xuan's expression changed.

He secretly resolved to destroy this fortune teller, for such a person posed a far greater threat than an ordinary quasi-immortal emperor.

Tens of thousands of years have passed, but the situation in the boundary sea has not changed much.

In a secret place, immortal light flickered in Li Xuan's palm, evolving the supreme Dao.

He refined the First Realm Tomb several times, and four Quasi-Immortal Emperor Dao Fruits fell into it, resulting in astonishing changes.

Even if a Quasi-Immortal Emperor were to go all out, the current Yijie Mausoleum would not suffer much damage.

The Daoist techniques of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor were performed, causing a surge of energy.

In the long river of time, a streak of light rushes upstream from downstream.

The divine sense swept across the river of time without lingering.

After a long while, Li Xuan stopped his deductions.

"The Emperor's aura has vanished!"

It was as if the other party had completely disappeared from the river of time, as if they had never existed at all.

Soon, the special method connected with the special artifact he had left on the Emperor.

The faint aura emanating from him put his mind at ease.

The Emperor's aura is constantly growing stronger, and although the speed is slow, he will eventually step into the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

The scene of the battle between the Immortal Emperors appeared in his mind again and again. Now, his strength has greatly improved, and he is more aware of the secrets behind it.

The sword that killed Emperor Yun appeared before his eyes, accompanying the Emperor Sword in his hand, making his own magic increasingly perfect.

This process was destined to be very long, and with each subsequent deduction, his aura grew stronger and stronger.

Tens of thousands of years have passed, and his strength has increased even further.
