Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 320 The Immortal God

After the fierce battle, the Sacred Cliff suddenly fell silent. Qi Zhe stood silently among the mountains, gazing at the center of the Sacred Cliff, surrounded by shattered rocks.

This place was ravaged; even several of the sacred mountains cut off from the Immortal Mountain collapsed, unable to withstand the most violent collisions.

On a distant, black mountain peak, the Black Emperor led Ye Tong and Hua Hua slowly down the summit, intending to meet up with Qi Zhe.

The battle they just witnessed was truly astonishing. The sight of two Great Saints fighting fiercely while carrying an Imperial Formation was something they had never seen before.

But the words that came from within the Sacred Cliff also weighed heavily on people's hearts. The Black Emperor knew that the other party was the one who had been suppressed by the Great Emperor Wushi.

Moreover, the background of the Golden Crow Great Sage is terrifying. Since he can manifest the methods of a quasi-emperor with the power of his bloodline, he must be of similar bloodline.

Qi Zhe's ruthless killing of his opponent has brought him yet another layer of trouble.

"Aren't you going to leave yet?!" The Black Emperor stumbled through the continuous imperial formation and stood in front of Qi Zhe with a heavy expression.

He didn't know Qi Zhe's purpose in staying at the Sacred Cliff, but seeing how Qi Zhe moved freely while carrying the Imperial Array, he knew that Qi Zhe did it intentionally.

This made him suspicious, unable to figure out Qi Zhe's purpose in staying there.

Ye Tong and Hua Hua were also very interested in Qi Zhe, and they stared at him with wide eyes, waiting for him to speak.

Qi Zhe was taken aback upon hearing this, then his expression changed and he suddenly said, "Could it be that you came to see me? Something's not right with you!"

Upon hearing this, the Black Emperor's face darkened, and he said speechlessly, "Now that rumors are spreading throughout the Big Dipper that you died at the Sacred Cliff, it's only natural that I have to come in and make a fortune."

He actually coveted Qi Zhe's treasures, but Qi Zhe was very wary of him and didn't give him any chance at all.

However, Qi Zhe also knew what kind of person the Black Emperor was, and upon hearing this, he laughed and said, "Then you'll be disappointed. The Holy Cliff is nothing; it can't take my life."

Although the Sacred Cliff was dangerous, it was not actually fatal to him. He could leave immediately if he wanted, and even the Undying Daoist would have to see him off.

Hei Huang felt the same way. Even though Sacred Cliff was not a forbidden zone, it was still a deadly place, but it could not stop Qi Zhe now.

The opponent is no longer the greenhorn he once was; he has become a Great Sage overlooking the entire Big Dipper, and even the Golden Crow Great Sage with his astonishing bloodline died at his hands.

Thinking of this, Black Emperor also fell silent. The feeling of being surpassed little by little was not pleasant. No wonder so many geniuses in the Big Dipper are now silent.

The Big Dipper of today is no longer the constellation it once was. Many of the ancient emperors' children have gone to the stars for trials, and only a few have remained.

Among them were many holy sons from back then, but they were no longer comparable to a great human saint who had stirred up endless turmoil.

Let alone the holy sons, even some peerless geniuses might not have the confidence to challenge Qi Zhe at this moment, simply because they are no longer cultivators of the same realm.

Then the Black Emperor prepared to take his leave, saying to Qi Zhe, "Since you are still alive, then there is nothing more for me to do."

"I don't want to stay in this lousy place."

But before leaving, the Black Emperor declared that the center of the Sacred Cliff was off-limits and that the Undying Daoist would never tolerate a second group taking the Nine Secrets.

Although that guy couldn't display imperial might, he could control the corpse of a Great Perfection Saint Body with just a wisp of divine consciousness. Anyone who got too close would be killed with a single punch.

After all, that was the corpse of a fully-fledged holy body. Even though it had been dead for hundreds of thousands of years, it still possessed immeasurable divine power.

Qi Zhe did not refute upon hearing this. Of course, he knew the danger involved. He did not expect that as soon as he opened the sacred stone coffin, the other party would grab him by the neck.

Then Qi Zhe spoke up: "Let me see you off, and also let the world know that I am not dead yet, and that the Big Dipper cannot change the world." The land of the Big Dipper is becoming more and more chaotic every day. No one can count how many sages from beyond the realm have come here, nor do they know if there are any great sages or quasi-emperors among them.

Although Qi Zhe did not want to get involved, he knew that many people wished they would die in the Holy Cliff, otherwise the Black Emperor would not have come to investigate.

He wanted to show himself to intimidate those people, but he didn't want them to get too outrageous.

Qi Zhe then took Shi Ma away and followed Hei Huang and the others out of the Sacred Cliff, reappearing in the eyes of the sages outside.

The battle at Sacred Cliff has already astonished the sages of the outside world. When they saw Qi Zhe emerge with the Black Emperor, many people began to frown.

Qi Zhe rode out of the mountains on a stone horse, carrying a bloodstained head in his hand, bringing back the resentful look of the Golden Crow Great Sage.

"The golden crow sheds blood, now its body and head are separated!"

Some people looked at the head Qi Zhe was holding in his hand and became extremely solemn, knowing that a great sage had been beheaded by Qi Zhe and even his head had been removed.

Qi Zhe is definitely not an ordinary person. Even among the Great Sages, he is considered one of the best, and there are few who can rival him.

However, some people were secretly delighted, because they felt that Qi Zhe had caused trouble this time, and killing the Golden Crow Great Sage might attract the supreme being of the Golden Crow clan.

As the Black Emperor and the others left, Qi Zhe casually tossed the head aside, his expression cold as he said, "Sacred Cliff is not a forbidden area."

"Anyone who wishes to fight me may step inside!"

Qi Zhe then turned and left, once again urging his horse into the dark mountains, leaving the sages outside in silence.

Then someone said strangely, "It seems the rumors were false. He wasn't moved by the Nine Secrets, but actually followed the example of the Great Perfection Holy Body and went into seclusion there!"

There is no doubt that only today did the sages realize Qi Zhe's purpose in entering the Sacred Cliff: he was actually cultivating there, emulating the Great Accomplished Sacred Body of that person.

The Great Sage Xingwu may have thought that the other party was trapped in a desperate situation, but he did not expect that this was not the case at all, which led to his death in vain.

This behavior is unheard of. You must know that this is the burial place of a Great Accomplished Holy Body. Back then, it took the Great Emperor Wushi to suppress those who caused trouble.

Qi Zhe actually dared to go into seclusion there, and many people outside who had been speculating about it couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they tried. They all thought he was going to retrieve the Nine Secrets.

This kind of spirit is truly astonishing. Everyone knows that the beings in the Sacred Cliff are comparable to the ancient emperors, but Qi Zhe dares to use it to hone his courage and Dao heart.

Even if the other party has been suppressed for tens of thousands of years and may have lost its former divine power, how many people would dare to desecrate it? Avoiding it is the norm.

"Alas," someone sighed, then turned and left, knowing that this sacred cliff was not a place they could set foot on.

Then more people slowly left. Faced with such an outstanding person, rather than waiting for him to die suddenly, it is better to look forward to his growth.

It's just that some people feel they've seen a great emperor rising, someone who will dominate the universe and create a legend during the time when the path to immortality is about to open.

Meanwhile, Qi Zhe returned from the Sacred Cliff, treading through the mountains and slowly advancing through the ever-changing imperial formation, crossing one black mountain after another.

He gazed into the depths of the sacred cliff, where a Taoist priest stood for a long time on the blood-stained mountain peak, seemingly gazing at him.

"I am an immortal god, yet I am also bound by the path to immortality."

My thoughts are constantly in a tangled mess.
