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

Chapter 96 The Transformation of the Divine Emperor
Along the golden road, overwhelming imperial might erupted, causing all living beings to tremble.

The Milky Way was left behind, and in an instant, they traversed countless worlds.

Finally, the man and the dog stopped in a mysterious place.

Little Black twitched its nose, revealing a human-like expression, and said, "If I could get even one good item from here, I'd be ready to lie down and relax."

Wu Shi patted the dog's head and led it into the most wondrous place in the universe.

Upon entering, Xiao Hei felt as if he were floating on air. Even without cultivating, simply staying here would greatly benefit his lifespan.

"Let's go!" Wu Shi led it deeper into the area.

"Senior!" Wu Shi bowed.

“Now that you have attained enlightenment, let us address each other as fellow Daoist,” Li Xuan said. “After attaining enlightenment, there are some things you should know.”

Then, Li Xuan told Wu Shi about his parents' experiences, and also told Wu Shi about the method of immortality and the strange world.

He was aware of Wushi's talent.

Bearing the bloodlines of two supreme beings, perhaps only the descendant of the Immortal Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor's Son, can compare to him in the entire universe.

Wushi, who was born in the ancient times, entered a strange world in his later years.

He achieved immortality through countless battles, even going head-to-head with two other immortals and remaining undefeated.

Whether he achieved immortality in the world of "Covering the Sky" or in a strange world, it made no difference to him.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist," Wushi said.

The next life is a long way off for Wushi. As a physique comparable to the Chaos Body, the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo will naturally have a lifespan no less than that of the Chaos Body.

"I wish to borrow the Immortal Bell for a look," Wu Shi stated, revealing the purpose of his trip.

His ultimate imperial weapon is a bell-shaped weapon, and studying the immortal patterns on the immortal bell will be of great help to him in the future.

Li Xuan did not keep anything to himself and lent the Immortal Bell to Wushi.

In the years that followed, the two discussed the Dao for a hundred years, verifying each other's Dao and Dharma.

After leaving the Heavenly Court, Wushi began his brilliant life.

In just a few decades, he solidified his own Dao and his combat power shook the ages.

After Xiao Hei accompanied him for two thousand years, Wu Shi sealed him away to prevent him from dying of old age.

On this day, Li Xuan, who had been in seclusion in the Heavenly Court, received a message from the God Emperor.

The ancient star of the Divine Silkworm is guarded by a God Emperor, making their clan's status far surpass that of many other major clans.

Its profound cultural heritage is even more unfathomable.

They crossed various realms and descended upon the ancient star of the Divine Silkworm.

"Heavenly Emperor, could we join forces to deduce the eleventh transformation of the Divine Silkworm?" the Divine Emperor asked.

He has been speculating for tens of thousands of years, but the progress is extremely slow.

Even if you give your all in this lifetime, it's hard to gain anything.

"it is good!"

The Divine Emperor shared the results of his deductions over the years.

The Divine Silkworm race possesses an extraordinary racial talent.

While it shares some similarities with the transformation path of the Immortal of the Mortal World, the Nine Transformations of the Divine Silkworm presents more challenges compared to the Immortal of the Mortal World's transformation.

Each transformation causes the forgetting of memories from the previous life, a fatal flaw that pales in comparison to the metamorphosis of a mortal immortal.

Li Xuan and the Divine Emperor joined forces to deduce the eleventh transformation of the Divine Silkworm.

A shower of light fell from the sky, and endless strange phenomena flew above the ancient star of the Divine Silkworm. Mystical power gathered here, and all paths resonated in harmony.

A thousand years have passed, and Li Xuan has made considerable progress in deducing the eleven transformations of the Divine Silkworm.

The Eleven Transformations of the Divine Silkworm and the Path of Transformation of the Mortal Immortal share a similar essence. The Eleven Transformations of the Divine Silkworm unifies the nine lifetimes in the mortal world, allowing one to leap into immortality.

"No, this transformation involves the path of immortality, and it cannot be accomplished in one fell swoop!" the God Emperor said regretfully.

Li Xuan was not too surprised by this conclusion. If he were to establish himself in the realm of immortality now, he would soon achieve results.

"Fellow Daoist, you can simultaneously wield the power of the Immortal in the Mortal World and the Eleven Transformations of the Divine Silkworm, completing the eleventh transformation within the mortal world," Li Xuan revealed his idea.

"This may be the best choice," the God Emperor said calmly.

The two discussed the Dao again for another thousand years, this time about the elixir of immortality.

The God Emperor had already discovered the extraordinary nature of the Elixir of Immortality, and he had a feeling that it shouldn't be what it was like now.

Li Xuan revealed part of the secret of the elixir of immortality to the God Emperor, emphasizing the part about longevity.

In the human world, the greatest effect of the elixir of immortality is the opportunity to achieve longevity.

"Is that so? If a living being were to emerge from here, could it awaken memories of its past life?" the God Emperor asked.

Li Xuan also hoped that a living being would emerge from each elixir of immortality, but throughout the ages, the only living being to emerge from the elixir of immortality was the Azure Emperor.

The Azure Emperor, who emerged from the elixir of immortality, ultimately stopped at the realm of humanity.

“It’s basically very difficult, you could even say it’s impossible,” Li Xuan said.

After spending several years on the ancient star of the divine silkworm, he returned to the Heavenly Court.

The deduction of the eleven transformations of the Divine Silkworm gave him ideas for his next life.

Both are essentially transformations. Some parts of the Eleven Transformations of the Divine Silkworm can be used on him to complete the transformation in the next life.

Li Xuan began his seclusion again, deducing how to apply parts of the eleven transformations of the Divine Silkworm to his own body.

This process is very slow and requires a long period of accumulation.

Time is merciless; ten thousand years can pass in the blink of an eye.

The first incarnation of Wushi still has a long remaining period of time, far exceeding that of ordinary people who attain enlightenment in one lifetime.

Beside him, an immortal herb resembling a divine phoenix followed.

He found the elixir of immortality thousands of years ago. At that time, the elixir of immortality was in its infancy. It has gradually recovered to its peak state over the years by Wushi's side.

Over the years, he has been observing the transformation process of the Divine Phoenix Elixir of Immortality and has gained a lot from it.

He studied the immortal patterns on the immortal bell for thousands of years and forged his own path from them.

After being tempered twice, the Wushi Bell has reached a higher level of quality. Now, the Wushi Bell has far surpassed ordinary supreme imperial weapons and is evolving towards the realm of immortality.

His strength has increased even further, far surpassing that of thousands of years ago.

……

On the ancient star of the Divine Silkworm, the Divine Emperor was filled with the aura of decline; his life had come to an end.

He was already prepared for the fourth incarnation of the Dharma.

Without hesitation, intricate runes surged from his body, drawing upon the power of heaven and earth, flowing into his decaying form.

In essence, this life is still a continuation of his unfinished eleventh transformation.

Based on everything in the past, the ultimate principles of heaven and earth are invoked and injected into the old body, so that the rebirth of the physical body can drive the rebirth of the primordial spirit.

As the life essence flowed in, the Divine Emperor began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

This time, a layer of old skin peeled off from his flesh, revealing glistening skin.

His black hair was loose, and a newfound power swept over him.

The Divine Emperor pressed on, channeling this newfound power through the five secret realms, and finally settling it within his primordial spirit.

A powerful imperial might erupted, shaking the heavens.

The power of the Great Dao flowed through the ancient star of the Divine Silkworm, greatly benefiting the Divine Silkworm clan living there. Many of them broke through their cultivation bottlenecks and made further progress.

From within the decaying body of the God Emperor, a new body emerged.

The fourth generation has successfully begun!
"The eleventh transformation has taken another step forward!" the God Emperor exclaimed in delight.

He then channeled his magic power, merging his shed skin into the Nine-Colored Treasure Robe. As the old skin merged into the Nine-Colored Treasure Robe, it subtly began to evolve into a celestial artifact.

Perhaps after he completes his nine transformations, this nine-colored robe will truly transform into a celestial garment.

His divine sense swept across the nine heavens and ten earths, and this realm was exposed without a doubt in his eyes.

The rules of heaven and earth have been broken.

"The road ahead is long," the Divine Emperor sighed.

This generation's God Emperor only operated in the mortal world for a few decades before continuing the deduction of the eleventh transformation.

Time is the most ruthless thing; ten thousand years can pass in a day.

The first incarnation without beginning has come to an end.

Yet his surging energy showed no signs of approaching old age.

"So quickly, we've already reached our twilight years."

Wu Shi looked at the Divine Phoenix Elixir of Immortality, his heart filled with conflict.

As he looked up at the heavens, he made up his mind.

He doesn't intend to undergo transformation in this realm or conquer strange worlds; he wants to fight his way in and reach the mortal realm.

Once he made up his mind, Wushi began preparations.

In the Heavenly Court, Li Xuan was somewhat surprised when he heard about Wu Shi's plan.

He really hadn't expected that even without the Immortal Emperor, Wu Shi would still choose to go to the Strange World.

"Are you sure? If it's in this realm, I can still help you."

Once the beginning of time has made up its mind, no one can change it.

"Thank you for your kindness, fellow Daoist, but this is my path, and it cannot be changed," Wu Shi affirmed.

Li Xuan did not try to persuade them to stay and told them everything about Guhuang Mountain.

“Fellow Daoist, there are runes left behind by the Emperor in that realm. The runes in the human realm have been mostly dealt with, but the refining of the runes left behind by the Emperor in that realm will depend on you.”

The Emperor's Refining World Cauldron was not just about refining the Shrouding the Heavens World; he also left Dao patterns in the Strange World, intending to refine both worlds.

“Okay, I’ll handle it.” Wu Shi agreed to Li Xuan’s request.

Before leaving, Wushi left the divine source that sealed Xiao Hei and Di Lisi in this realm. If something happens to him, the two will still not be affected.

As a dazzling beam of celestial light flashed by, Wushi stepped into the passage between the two realms and entered a strange world.

In that realm, Wushi fought his way through battles, beginning his path of transformation.

After seeing Wushi off, Li Xuan immediately went into seclusion.

He felt that he was not far from his next transformation.

Even after Wushi left, the world remained prosperous, the suppression of the Great Dao of the Universe remained, and living beings still found it difficult to attain enlightenment.

However, this grand occasion did not last long, and the decline of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth arrived as expected.

A lifetime of prosperity will eventually come to an end, something beyond human control.

The universe has begun its cycle once again.

"Another life has come to an end!"

"I want to live, I don't want to grow old and die!"

The creatures roared in resentment and anger at the injustice of heaven and earth, yet they still met the end of their lives.

External changes have no impact on the Heavenly Court; it remains unchanged for tens of thousands of years.

On this day, the four swords of Zhuxian trembled violently, and the Zhuxian Formation diagram unleashed endless killing intent.

Li Xuan noticed all these changes, and when he arrived at the location, he showed surprise.

Only tens of thousands of years have passed, and Lingbao Tianzun has already awakened a faint true spirit.

He then began to deduce the exact time of Lingbao Tianzun's return.

After a while, Li Xuan slowly stopped his deduction.

"At most two hundred thousand years later, the Celestial Venerable Lingbao will return in full force!"

In the outside world, tens of thousands of years pass by unnoticed.

But the world remained silent, showing no sign of recovery.

For the next 50,000 years, although the suppression of the myriad paths of the universe disappeared, no one attained enlightenment.

The strongest one to appear was only at the first level of Quasi-Emperor, and he even perished under the tribulation of lightning while trying to break through to the second level of Quasi-Emperor.

A deep sense of despair filled the cultivator's heart, and he was filled with uncertainty about the future.

However, not all living beings are like this; many still have hope for the future.

Another ten thousand years passed, and in the Big Dipper Starfield, an ancient being named Yuan was born.

From the moment he embarked on his cultivation journey, he sang his way to victory. Among his peers, those who could fight and defeat him at the same level were extremely rare in the world.

When he stepped into the Sendai Secret Realm, his combat power became even more terrifying.

Many veteran powerhouses began to be defeated by him, and at this point he had already established himself among the world's strongest.

Yuan did not stop. As news of the opening of the ancient road to the outer realms swept through the younger generation, Yuan followed in everyone's footsteps and stepped into the ancient road to the starry sky.

Since he stepped onto the ancient path of the starry sky, his invincible talent has been fully revealed.

Among the younger generation, he is a rare genius who was able to step into the forbidden realm of gods before even attaining enlightenment.

In the blink of an eye, fifty years have passed, and Yuan has become the first among the younger generation to break through to the Saint King level.

At this moment, he already showed signs of becoming the number one among the younger generation.

However, when his feat of killing an enemy who was about to step into the Quasi-Emperor realm with the cultivation of a Great Sage was revealed, his status among the younger generation was completely established.

Since then, Yuan Yifa has become unstoppable, entering the Quasi-Emperor realm with invincible talent, and even killing a senior Quasi-Emperor powerhouse as soon as he entered the Quasi-Emperor realm.

The name of Yuan resounded throughout the ancient road under the starry sky.

Time flies, and a century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Yuan's cultivation has reached the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor, and he is now invincible below the Dao Realm.

But this was not his end. Just a few years later, Yuan Chenggong triggered the tribulation of attaining enlightenment, and was about to take that final step.

Li Xuan, who was in seclusion, sensed the fluctuations in the outside world and cast his gaze down.

The Great Dao, which had suppressed its own turmoil, made way for this enlightened being.

Yuan truly deserves his reputation as a prodigy of this era. The lightning tribulation was turbulent, yet it could not stop his path to enlightenment.

Yuan wielded a divine sword, striving to contend with the myriad paths of the universe.

"Break it for me!"

A loud shout resounded through the heavens, and an unparalleled sword beam tore through the lightning tribulation, revealing the supreme figure in the center.

Yuan did not stop his advance. A divine power flew out from his body and was engraved in the myriad paths of the universe.

The Great Dao of Yuan will become the only Great Dao tens of thousands of years from now.

When the last ray of tribulation light fell, Yuan's tribulation to attain enlightenment came to an end.

The universe resonated in harmony, welcoming the birth of this new emperor.

"Emperor Yuan"

As the first person shouted, a deafening roar resounded throughout the universe, congratulating the birth of the new emperor.

The Emperor Yuan looked at two wondrous places in the universe. He had not known their power before, but now that he had attained enlightenment, he truly understood their power.

The Emperor sat cross-legged in the void, drawing upon the life essence of the universe to solidify his own Great Dao.
