Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 162 Stifling Geniuses, Covering the Sky with One Hand!
In the history of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the ancient years before the mythological era are called the Chaotic Ancient Era, which is so ancient that it is difficult to trace back.

But Qi Zhe knew that era was completely different from the present, whether it was the cultivation system or everything else.

In that era, some beings were born with various precious bones. The runes on these bones were called bone script, which were the tangible manifestation of the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Among humans, there are also beings born extraordinary. Some are born with precious bones containing astonishing supernatural powers, and these are known as supreme bones.

But those are remnants of the previous era, and are completely different from the present age. Since the end of the Chaotic Ancient Era, no living being has grown precious bones again.

Even if the beings of this generation are born extraordinary, this is reflected in their origin and the five great secret realms, which are called their constitution by the world.

Qi Zhe's body is now undergoing ancient changes; runes are hidden within him, and a supernatural power has been born.

“That era has passed, yet it has reappeared within my body.” This made Qi Zhe sigh in disbelief.

Yan Ruyu was somewhat surprised to see Qi Zhe absorbing the divine power from all directions, with runes constantly appearing on his body and his muscles radiating divine light.

"Is he cultivating divine arts?" Yan Ruyu judged in her heart, then stopped interfering and raised her hand to put away the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart.

The heart was somewhat violent, but at this moment, the overwhelming divine power was being continuously absorbed by the runes on Qi Zhe's body, and the overwhelming power was no longer present.

As Yan Ruyu put away the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart, the runes on Qi Zhe's body gradually extinguished, and the divine light also gradually receded.

Qi Zhe observed all of this, watching the runes within his body gradually fade into obscurity, and fell into deep thought.

He didn't know whether this change was good or bad, after all, ancient power was not necessarily a sign of strength, nor was it necessarily suitable for him.

"We can only wait and see." Qi Zhe sighed, deciding to see how far this supernatural power would evolve.

As Qi Zhe came to his senses, he realized that Yan Ruyu was staring at him intently, and couldn't help but ask, "Is something the matter?"

The two were standing in the ruined mountains, under a sky full of stars and moon, surrounded by silence and desolation. Yan Ruyu's gaze made Qi Zhe very uncomfortable.

Yan Ruyu's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this. Her brows furrowed, and she hesitated before saying, "Now that the Demon Emperor's Holy Heart has returned, that young man might already be dead."

She felt a little regretful. The birth of the Holy Body in the Eastern Wilderness was ultimately a good thing, and its early death might have been caused by her.

Qi Zhe's expression turned strange upon hearing this. He genuinely didn't believe Ye Fan was dead. Anyone with half a brain would know that Ye Fan had a strong vitality, and there was definitely something wrong with him.

Putting everything else aside, Qi Zhe felt that Ye Fan must have been exploiting the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart as before, which led to the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart running away on its own.

However, this had nothing to do with Qi Zhe. At this moment, he could only say, "Things may not be that simple. There might be other hidden reasons."

Yan Ruyu shook her head repeatedly upon hearing this, then turned and left with the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart. Qi Zhe, seeing this, said no more.

Less than two months had passed since the last great battle. Qi Zhe had been studying the Great Dao for a long time and now felt a breakthrough.

However, he wasn't in a hurry. His breakthrough speed had been too fast recently, and even though he felt that his foundation was solid, he still wanted to take some time to consolidate his gains.

As for breakthroughs, there's no rush.

When Qi Zhe returned to the ancient village, he saw several thatched huts brightly lit in the night, and in one of them a thin child was meditating.

Qi Zhe had entrusted the task of guarding his heart to Yan Ruyu during this period, and he had been in seclusion cultivating, which meant he had been quite free for a long time.

Now that Qi Zhe has returned, Shou Xin has finally found someone to rely on. Sensing Qi Zhe's approach, she darted out of the thatched hut. "Boss!" Shou Xin exclaimed excitedly, her face pitiful, as she complained, "Boss, a strange man has come to the village and has been staring at me!"

In recent days, Yan Ruyu has received a distinguished guest: the Peacock King, a powerful demon from the Southern Region, has finally come out of seclusion to seek justice for her.

The Peacock King was a powerful demon king in the Eastern Wilderness. Eight hundred years ago, he dominated the Eastern Wilderness and was sworn brothers with several other powerful demons.

He is nearly three thousand years old, definitely a great demon with extremely profound cultivation, and even many holy lands are wary of him.

At this point, he stayed in the village, listening to Shouxin's meaning that they had discovered his extraordinary nature and had been observing him for the past few days.

"boom!!!"

As Shou Xin finished speaking, Qi Zhe instantly felt a surge of demonic energy soaring into the sky, not far from him.

Then someone said, "His body and blood are like a dragon and an elephant, and his spiritual energy is like a bright lamp. He is truly extraordinary!"

Although the Peacock King was nearly three thousand years old, he looked like a young boy. He had been lying dormant in the village, but now he appeared before Qi Zhe.

He was very handsome and refined, dressed in purple with an exceptional air about him, like a pure and untouched young man. It was hard to believe that he was a powerful figure.

He stood in mid-air, staring intently at Qi Zhe, as if trying to see through him, his eyes filled with incredibly complex emotions.

He had been in seclusion for a long time, and upon emerging from seclusion, he heard that the descendants of the Demon Emperor were being besieged by many major sects. If it weren't for Qi Zhe's appearance, they would never have been able to break through the encirclement.

When he finally met the other person, he felt that the rumors from the outside world were completely true, and he had a great sense of enlightenment.

When Yan Ruyu saw the Peacock King appear, she smiled gently and turned to Qi Zhe, saying, "Brother Qi, this is the Peacock King, a great power of my demon race."

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhe came to his senses and said, "So you are a senior from the demon race. I have heard of the Peacock King's name before. Today I have truly broadened my horizons."

Upon hearing this, the Peacock King calmed down and turned to Shouxin, saying, "Did you bring this child? His blood is very special."

Upon hearing this, Shouxin's pupils contracted, and she quickly hid next to Qi Zhe, peeking out at the Peacock King and saying, "My blood is very ordinary!"

Upon hearing this, the Peacock King did not continue to inquire about Shou Xin's special circumstances, but said to Qi Zhe, "It was fortunate that you were there that day, otherwise my demon emperor's lineage would have been cut off."

"But the great grudge must be avenged. I am prepared to go to the Yao Guang Holy Land to intercept and kill the Yao Guang Holy Son. I will not let the Ji family's divine body go either."

Would you be interested in joining me?

Ever since he heard the reason for the last great war, he has harbored murderous intent. He intercepted and killed the descendants of the Demon Emperor in the Yao Guang Holy Land. No matter what his purpose was, he had no intention of letting the matter rest.

The Ji family also made a move, and he naturally regarded them as his targets as well. In addition, he also planned to settle accounts with those other major sects one by one.

Asking for Qi Zhe's opinion at this time naturally meant that he thought Qi Zhe was good and wanted to take Qi Zhe with him, otherwise he could manage on his own.

Qi Zhe was taken aback upon hearing this, then thought for a moment and said, "I am naturally somewhat interested, but Ji Haoyue is not my target."

Qi Zhe's meaning was self-evident: he wanted to target the Holy Son of Yao Guang and intentionally destroy his future.

Now that Qi Zhe has ascended to the Sendai, he naturally feels that he can stifle geniuses and control the world with his own hands, and he can destroy the Holy Son of Yaoguang with a flick of his wrist.
