Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 292 Obstacles to Enlightenment

A terrifying aura filled the air, causing Qi Zhe's expression to change drastically. The figure that hadn't appeared before was now making a move.

Although it was a palm strike delivered as it dissipated, its power was no less than that of any emperor, forcing Qi Zhe to be cautious.

But Qi Zhe still yelled at him, "Get out!"

At this moment, Qi Zhe shook his body again and suddenly threw a punch forward. A great river flowed over his body, and boundless fist light illuminated the stars.

In an instant, this starry sky shattered, and huge cracks tore open the universe. If the stars had not been destroyed, it would have been another scene of world destruction.

Amidst the raging torrent, Qi Zhe stood proudly, letting the Heavenly Palace vanish before his eyes. His vast holy might overwhelmed the starry sky, and the starlight seemed to flow through his vision.

The Emperor's illusory image still did not achieve anything, it only allowed Qi Zhe to land an extra punch, and could not stop him from reaching even greater heights.

The starry sky was completely silent. Watching Qi Zhe undergo his tribulation, someone remained in a daze for a long time before finally saying, "He really succeeded! He's now capable of dominating an entire starry sky!"

Saint King is already a rare powerhouse, a great figure on any ancient star. He is only a quasi-emperor and his strength is second only to the Great Saint.

Covering the sun and moon with one's palm and shattering the stars with a wave of one's hand are merely minor tricks. Creating an immortal holy land is not difficult, enough to become a saint and an ancestor.

Today, Qi Zhe has achieved such a level of skill that even the most outstanding talents would have to submit.

But some people sighed and said inexplicably, "For us, the Saint King may have reached his limit, but for him, the Great Emperor, it is the end!"

People are different. Even the most outstanding geniuses are few and far between. The Saint King is the place where most of the geniuses in this world stay.

Now everyone believes that Qi Zhe is more than this; he has the potential to prove himself, and it's only a matter of time before he becomes invincible under the starry sky. No one has been able to stop him along the way.

Just like when the Azure Emperor walked the path of the Supreme God tens of thousands of years ago, his fierce spirit soared into the sky, and no genius could stop him in the slightest. He was like a god who could kill gods and Buddhas who could not stand in his way.

Now Qi Zhe is like the reincarnation of the Green Emperor, making people unconsciously want to compare, and then they can't help but sigh that they were born into this world.

There were human protectors who stayed under this starry sky. Now that they saw Qi Zhe stepping into this realm, they were somewhat moved and then appeared directly in front of Qi Zhe.

His face was very old, with long gray hair hanging down to his shoulders, and his old Taoist robe was gray, making him look like a true ancient person.

But his eyes were exceptionally clear as he stared at Qi Zhe, who was radiating extraordinary light, and watched Qi Zhe recover his body in the starry sky. After a moment, he said:
"I had long heard of you, but seeing you today, you are truly extraordinary."

He had a thousand words to say, but at this moment he could only say one, because even his utmost praise could not fully express Qi Zhe's achievements.

Qi Zhe had noticed the old man's arrival long ago, and now, upon hearing this, his expression was somewhat puzzled, recalling how the old man had spoken up for him earlier.

Qi Zhe nodded and said, "Senior, you flatter me. I thank you for speaking up for me earlier."

Qi Zhe looked earnest and thanked the old man repeatedly, which made the old man both laugh and cry. He smiled and said:
"You are somewhat different from the rumors."

He knew Qi Zhe's character very well; his arrogance was ingrained in his bones, and he possessed a proud and unyielding spirit that allowed him to soar above the world. He had never bowed his head on the ancient road.

The old man then chuckled softly, "I am about to depart; many challenges await you on your journey."

He left no name, transformed into a beam of light and suddenly disappeared into the void, vanishing into the starry sky without a trace.

Only his words before he left resonated in the void, like waves rippling wildly in the air, drifting far away.

Qi Zhe was stunned upon hearing this, and after a moment he looked ahead, knowing that there were still many challenges waiting for him.

"I'll be right there!" Qi Zhe looked excited. He knew he had overcome this hurdle and could continue on his way; nothing could stop him now.

At this moment, he summoned the stone horse that was hiding in the distance, and rode the stone horse towards this trial ground in the starry sky, intending to overcome many obstacles and move forward.

Many passing prodigies stared at his retreating figure with bitter expressions, knowing that he had set off again and would be competing with them along the way.

"I really want to leave now, to avoid being hit hard again."

Some talented individuals were considering leaving, and if they didn't want to give up halfway, they would have left the ancient path of the human race to avoid such a formidable person.

As Qi Zhe departed, an astonishing storm swept across the ancient human path. Qi Zhe successfully transcended his tribulation and reached the Saint King realm, shocking many prodigies.

He was already strong enough. Now he broke through the barriers in a row, surpassing others by decades or even hundreds of years. He broke through the barriers in just seventeen years after becoming a saint.

No one can predict his cultivation speed in the future. He may block the path to becoming an emperor for many human prodigies, causing them to lose their advantage on the path to enlightenment.

"Too fast, far too fast. Doesn't he consider the instability of his foundation?"

"Such a fierce breakthrough certainly demonstrates his exceptional talent, but it could also cause him to stop here, leading to endless troubles!"

"The Great Sage's trial might not stop him, but I have a feeling he will have difficulty breaking through to the Emperor Realm and will be trapped for life!"

Some people were surprised by his cultivation speed, feeling that such progress was too fast, no less than forcing growth and damaging his potential.

Some even believe that Qi Zhe may be stuck at the Quasi-Emperor realm, unable to surpass it in his lifetime, which will become the greatest tragedy of this world.

As a result, storms raged on the ancient road, giving many desperate talents renewed motivation to solidify their foundations and unleash their potential later on. They did not believe that Qi Zhe could continue like this.

Peerless geniuses such as Di Tian, ​​Gu Huang, and Ren Wang refused to submit to Qi Zhe and were determined to advance alongside him.

They don't care about so-called foundations, because they can forge any kind of foundation through constant battles on the ancient path. The most important thing is to seize the opportunity to prove the Dao.

"If he continues like this, and becomes a Great Sage at the age of one hundred, he will block the path to becoming an Emperor for many other geniuses, and no one will be able to compete with him!"

As a terrifying message spread, the entire ancient road was shaken, realizing that Qi Zhe wanted to attain enlightenment at an unstoppable pace and that his ambitions were enormous.

Everyone knows that this generation is very different from others. The Azure Emperor's Dao traces have been gone for less than a hundred years. Regardless of the older generation, most of the geniuses of this generation have not cultivated for more than a hundred years.

Once a lead is established, it becomes extremely difficult for any other prodigy to catch up, because proving one's path to enlightenment is never a simple matter.

Since the age of mythology, a curse has been passed down in the world that no one can attain enlightenment within five hundred years of age, and no matter how talented or brilliant one is, it is difficult to overcome.

Most enlightened beings in this world take a thousand years to complete their path to enlightenment. Even the amazing Demon Emperor took six or seven hundred years, and the powerful Wushi never even crossed the line.

If Qi Zhe continues down this path, he is very likely to be stuck at the five-hundred-year mark of attaining enlightenment. At that time, all the geniuses will be in despair and unable to catch up.

Even the older generation might be speechless, but if that old golden crow knew, it would jump up, and even the Divine Court Emperor would have to reshape his Dao heart.

Qi Zhe has now become the common enemy of the world's geniuses. If he continues to rise above others, he will surely be attacked by all those who aspire to the path of emperor.

This is an insurmountable obstacle!
There's one more chapter; I still need to work hard for a while.
