Infinite transcendence began with Covering the Sky.

Chapter 50 The Sacred Body Ancient Tomb
Nangong Xin had no choice but to believe Qi Zhe. His coercion and enticement left him with no option but to do his best to share what he had learned after much hesitation.

He claimed that most Origin Arts in the world are accumulated over a long period of time, and the Nangong family is no exception. They were developed little by little by their ancestors through research in Originium.

The Nangong family's Origin Techniques are divided into two types: those within the stone and those outside the stone. Those within the stone are various methods for observing and utilizing Origin Stones. Not only are they difficult to cultivate, but they are also only useful for Origin Stones.

The arts outside the stone are more extensive, including many methods for observing mountains, rivers, the sun and moon, and manipulating the direction of the earth's veins. Although they are relatively easy to learn, they are also easy to learn but difficult to master.

He then proceeded to recount everything he had learned, regardless of whether Qi Zhe could learn it or not; he only talked and didn't teach.

After listening to Nangong Xin's account, Qi Zhe couldn't help but sigh, "The art of Origin is indeed profound and extensive. No wonder there have only been five Origin Masters in the Eastern Wilderness since ancient times."

He paid no attention to Nangong Xin's attitude, only caring about the many wonderful source techniques he had acquired, and felt that he had gained a great deal.

Compared to the Source Book hidden deep in Purple Mountain, the Source Technique obtained from Nangong Xin was far inferior, but it was easier to obtain and required almost no effort.

Moreover, when it comes to tracing sources in ordinary terrain, the strength or level of source techniques doesn't have much of an impact. Many of the wonderful techniques in the Source Heaven Book are prepared for unusual terrains, which are not places Qi Zhe wants to set foot in now.

Therefore, even obtaining ordinary source techniques would be of great use to him, meaning that he could find the source he needed for cultivation underground.

Nangong Xin looked rather grim, knowing that he had violated his family's ancestral teachings and would certainly not fare well if caught. He could only remind him, "I hope you will keep your mouth shut, fellow Daoist."

"Haha." Qi Zhe laughed with a satisfied expression, staring at Nangong Xin's strange expression, and said, "Of course, Brother Nangong was so generous, so I naturally have to return the favor. There is absolutely no possibility that a third party knows about this!"

As time passed, although Nangong Xin was severely injured, he recovered somewhat with the help of miraculous medicines and began to explore the seabed.

Qi Zhe was not surprised to see this. Instead of rushing to study the Origin Technique, he took Nangong Xin and started wandering around the seabed.

This golden ocean is vast and boundless. When you are on the seabed, you are surrounded by golden light. Even if Qi Zhe opens his eyes wide, he cannot see through the distance of a hundred feet around him. However, the towering black shadows in the distance are clearly visible.

"The ancient holy body has been gone for tens of thousands of years, but the methods it left behind are still terrifying!" Nangong Xin looked around with great emotion.

Qi Zhe was slightly lost in thought at the bottom of the sea. He could feel the vastness of the divine power of the Holy Body in this ocean, but he was also curious and wondered if that person was really buried here.

"If it is confirmed that a holy body is buried here, then he is not one of the people I know." Qi Zhe began to search through the memories in his mind.

"The man from Saint Cliff lies in a coffin, buried in a foreign land on Mars. Yang Xi's ancestors shed blood on the ancient road under the stars. Whether Wu Shi's father was one of the nine is uncertain; it's truly difficult to determine."

Qi Zhe knew very well the whereabouts of several of the ancient holy bodies that had produced nine generations in the past, and could even be said to know them by heart. This reminded him of the situation.

The lineage of the Holy Body has produced nine generations of invincible individuals, but that does not mean that there were only nine people who achieved the Great Perfection of the Holy Body during the ancient times. It is impossible that there were only nine people who achieved the Great Perfection of the Holy Body during the millions of years of the ancient times; there must have been others.

Besides, these nine people have only appeared nine generations in the Eastern Wilderness. If we look at the entire starry sky, it is unknown whether other ancient life stars will produce holy bodies.

Even Qi Zhe dared not make a judgment about who the owner of this golden ocean was, and he was not even sure if it was one of the nine people.

As the two were exploring the seabed, the gradually appearing ruins in their field of vision startled Qi Zhe awake.

The two now found themselves amidst collapsed palaces and houses, surrounded by structures washed away by the sea, with skeletons gradually appearing. Qi Zhe crouched down, rummaging through the broken bones, a hint of bewilderment in his expression, and said, "These are the remains of a master, someone with at least the cultivation of a dragon transformation expert!"

The skeletons before Qi Zhe were incomplete, broken into many pieces, but they were as lustrous as warm jade, and the cultivation level of their former owner was self-evident.

Qi Zhe also discovered that these remains may not have existed at the bottom of the sea for very long, at most a few thousand years, otherwise they would not have been able to be preserved over such a long period of time.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xin's expression suddenly turned panicked. He knew that the appearance of corpses must mean danger, and the current peace might not be able to be maintained any longer.

"You're already chickening out?" Qi Zhe scoffed, ignoring Nangong Xin's expression as he continued forward, stepping over the numerous corpses.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xin's face flushed red, and he couldn't help but cough, saying, "Cough cough... I just felt that we should be cautious."

As they continued onward, more and more skeletons appeared along the way, some broken into countless pieces, others barely intact but covered in cracks.

Moreover, without exception, they were all crystal clear like jade, which was quite amazing, and they all had great origins and cultivation.

Looking at the shattered bones, Qi Zhe knew that they must have been instantly shattered by some extremely powerful force, or even killed in a single blow, with none escaping unscathed.

"They must be cultivators who accidentally wandered into this place over the years, perhaps all of whom were killed by the waves," Qi Zhe concluded after examining the remains for a long time, based on the state of their fractures.

When he and Nangong Xin first entered this place, they saw a terrifying giant wave. At that time, the two of them directly dived into the water to escape the disaster. However, these cultivators may not have given up and may have chosen to confront the giant wave head-on.

"The bigger the storm, the more miserable the death," Qi Zhe muttered to himself.

As he continued forward, Qi Zhe lost track of how far he had traveled on the seabed, gradually approaching the colossal objects that supported his dark silhouette.

But when he saw the first underwater tomb, he was dumbfounded. It was a mountain thousands of feet high, but for some reason, most of it had collapsed, with only the side facing them barely remaining intact.

“These are signs of impact, originating from the deepest part of this vast ocean!” Nangong Xin, who had been circling around, looked strangely at the distance, feeling a chill run down his spine.

This scene was truly horrifying. He felt that there might be a huge secret involved, perhaps closely related to the Great Perfection of the Ancient Sacred Body.

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhe glanced in the direction the mountain had collapsed and said thoughtfully, "Perhaps I now know the origin of this vast ocean."

He guessed that this must be the same situation as the Holy Body Ancestral Star, where the corpse may have already transformed into the Dao, leaving behind a vast ocean of golden divine power, which then broke through the tomb.

He clearly remembered that Ye Fan encountered a golden ocean that submerged the starry sea, and he didn't know how big this place was, after all, it was too vast, but the seabed was more than 20,000 feet deep.

"Who knows how wide this sea is?" Qi Zhe cursed under his breath, deeply sensing the power of the Holy Body at this moment.

Then Qi Zhe said with a determined look in his eyes, "Follow the direction of the landslide, that's my destination!"
