Covering the Sky: I Prove the Great Dao Through the Gate of Immortality

After dealing with these matters, Li Chenzhou looked towards the battlefield.

The kings were shocked. Even the Butcher and the Burial Master, who were Emperor Light Immortal Kings, felt that this method was truly too astonishing.

He was clearly living in his own time, yet he seemed to exist across countless eras, transcending the entirety of ancient history.

"What an extraordinary person!"

Ancient immortal kings were amazed. They had seen countless geniuses and giants, but none had ever defied the heavens like this.

Although Li Chenzhou's white robes were tattered and stained with dark bloodstains from an unknown era, they seemed more noble than an imperial robe.

He stood there quietly, as if standing above all paths, with all the heavens and worlds merely dust beneath his feet.

That kind of charm is hard to describe; it's not a deliberately displayed domineering aura, but a natural "transcendence."

They regard immortal kings as mere weeds and giants as commonplace.

"I feel as if I'm seeing a living emperor."

A supreme immortal king murmured, expressing the fear in everyone's hearts.

Even the butcher and the treasurer had a strange feeling at this moment: to be an enemy of this person was to be an enemy of the entire ancient history, and an enemy of the unpredictable cause and effect downstream of the river of time.

The river of time surges because of him, and fragments of time fly by, yet they cannot touch him in the slightest.

His very existence is like a myth, reflecting from the distant past to the present, and casting a shadow into the endless future.

The kings were silent, and the eternal starry sky was still.

Who exactly is this person?

Where does he come from?

Where does he intend to go?

The kings looked up and saw Li Chenzhou still standing quietly under the sky, his clothes not moving at all.

"Who exactly are you?"

The person with double pupils, Shi Yi, spoke.

His double pupils opened and closed, and a scene of primordial chaos burst forth from the depths of his eyes, shocking his opponent into coughing up blood.

At this moment, he looked at Li Chenzhouzhou, his eyes filled with deep fear and trepidation.

Li Chenzhou lowered his gaze and met Shi Yi's eyes.

The other party has seen the Gate of Immortality.

Not in this world, but against the flow of time, in the past, or beside that one who reigns supreme for eternity...

"A mere passerby, yet a true immortal."

"Fellow Daoist, this is not the time and space you should stay in."

The butcher arrived through the air, his body surging with murderous aura. He also stared at the illusory portal behind Li Chenzhou.

He recognized this door too!

During the era of the fallen emperors, he once saw a man holding this gate, walking alone on the remnants of an era; that scene was too profound to forget.

The void is silent, only the great forces are gathering.

They can't forget this door, nor dare they forget it.

Beneath the vast sky, Li Chenzhou remained unmoved, like a solitary peak overlooking the battlefield engulfed in flames.

The butcher wasn't sure who this person was, but he was certain that this person was not from the dark faction.

The door was incredibly ancient, and the person was absolutely stunning. But precisely because of this, the butcher's heart sank. Such an extraordinary appearance, if exposed now, would attract the attention of his enemies...

In a daze, this figure overlapped with that shadow, the one who had almost caused his Dao heart to collapse when he was young, forcing him to go to the faraway wilderness, the one he could only look up to even after he reached the peak.

But the person in front of you is even more terrifying.

Before becoming a Celestial King, he defied the odds and defeated a supreme Celestial King.

At this moment, all the Immortal Kings who were fighting slowed down, and all eyes turned to Li Chenzhou. Even the Dark King of the Strange Clan stopped.

"Fellow Daoist," the butcher spoke again, his words sincere, "this is not your original time and space; you should not linger here."

He didn't say it explicitly, but everyone understood that some beings, even across countless ages, could be hunted down against the tide of time once their traces were captured.

Li Chenzhou's voice was calm, yet it was like cold stardust grinding through the void:

"So, are we still playing?"

"If you don't fight, I'm leaving."

After the words were spoken, the kings were indeed deathly silent for a moment.

What do you take us for? Monkeys?

Even if you don't say it, we will fight to the bitter end.

"boom--!"

What suddenly erupted was not an answer, but a burst of chaotic light.

The light was intense, like the explosion of the primordial chaos, accompanied by a bloodcurdling scream, tearing the sky apart.

"A person with double pupils!"

The dark overlord who was fighting the butcher was forced to retreat thousands of miles, black blood gushing from his eyes, his entire head almost pierced through.

He roared, his voice shattering the stars: "You despicable scoundrel, how dare you launch a sneak attack!"

Shi Yi spoke coldly:

"On the battlefield, how can there be a sneak attack?"

"Darkness, how dare it speak of light and righteousness?"

His tone was cold, completely forgetting that he himself had just been distracted by that door; for the enemy to be distracted was to meet their doom.

As for myself? That's called being in control of the whole situation!

Even the celestial kings from the Heavenly Court had slightly stiffened expressions and felt a chill in their hearts.

Just a moment ago... who wasn't distracted?

"wonderful."

Li Chenzhou stood at the end of the void and clapped his hands in praise.

This exclamation, though flat and emotionless, was more jarring than any mockery.

The kings of the Dark Faction erupted in a frenzy, their killing intent surging forth.

"Today, I will crush your false Heavenly Court!"

The Dark Overlord, nearly pierced, roared as its head reformed in the black light, its aura growing increasingly violent and chaotic.

"die!"

Shi Yi's double pupils opened and closed, his gaze locking onto the dark giant once more. The light of creation and tribulation evolved deep within his pupils, and his combat power soared to its limit.

"war!"

It's unclear who uttered that word first, but the next instant—

"Boom!"

The true dragon reached out its claws and tore at a Celestial King. The Heavenly Horned Ant shattered the Ninefold Black Prison with a single punch. On the dark side, countless strange creatures crawled out from the black mist. The shattered Celestial King array diagram, and even half of the Epoch Tombstone flowing with black blood, all turned into a torrent of destruction.

"war!"

"Boom!"

The true dragon reached out its claws and tore at a Celestial King. The Heavenly Horned Ant shattered the Ninefold Black Prison with a single punch. On the dark side, countless strange creatures crawled out from the black mist. The shattered Celestial King array diagram, and even half of the Epoch Tombstone flowing with black blood, all turned into a torrent of destruction.

Li Chenzhou remained standing still.

His eyes shimmered with Daoist wisdom; he absorbed every ancient technique used by a Celestial King and every spark ignited by the collision of the Great Dao.

He's watching.

Witness the most brutal battle of this chaotic ancient era, and witness the final brilliance of the ancient immortal techniques.

Then, integrate it into your own "Tao".

In a corner of the battlefield, the Butcher suddenly turned around, his eyes meeting Li Chenzhou's briefly before looking away.

This person is indeed studying various methods of spiritual practice.

But he had no time to investigate further, because the dark overlord opposite him had gone completely mad, burning his source to transform into a cursed blade that cleaved down from the sky.

"Come!"

The butcher laughed wildly, charging upwards through the sea of ​​blood, his blade clashing with the black blade.

Li Chenzhou stood silently in the void, watching this unprecedented bloody battle.

It wasn't that he didn't want to take action, but that mysterious power restricted him; no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't break free from the constraints of time and space.

If one forces an action, there will be a great karmic backlash. Even just having such a thought will give one a spiritual warning of impending doom.

He saw on the other side of the battlefield that Mo Cang was besieging a Celestial King with another Dark King.

At this moment, Mo Cang's battle intent shattered the heavens, the Myriad Realms Map unfolded, and even the River of Time cracked, overlapping with the figure he had just slain, giving Li Chenzhou a strange feeling.

He composed himself and focused all his attention on this grand feast of the Great Dao.

Ancient Immortal Laws, Chaotic Ancient Laws, and the corrupt truths of the Dark Faction—every collision of laws was replicated. The Gate of Eternal Life trembled slightly, absorbing the lingering echoes of all the Great Daos on this battlefield.

The great battle eventually came to a temporary halt.

The dark army retreated to the Boundary Sea, leaving behind corpses everywhere. Some kings had fallen, and some celestial kings' weapons had been shattered into pieces.

There was no true victor in this battle.

The butcher stood leaning on his knife, half of his body almost cleaved in two.

Everyone knew that this was just a fragment of a long war, and the real decisive battle was yet to come.

Li Chenzhou gazed in the direction where the darkness receded, sighing in his heart. Those suppressed immortal kings, when they met again, might be standing on the opposite side of their former comrades.

For the strange race, this great battle was more like using war to sustain war.

With each step the Heavenly Court retreats, darkness encroaches upon it.

Those dark substances can even erode the primordial spirit of a Celestial King; this is the truest despair.

"These bastards... how come we can't kill them all!"

A young man transformed from a celestial ant. He was amazing and had cultivated to the Immortal King realm. At this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and he smashed a large star with a single punch.

No one responded.

The butcher, the burial master, Shi Yi, and the others remained silent as they walked towards Li Chenzhou.

"Fellow Daoist."

The butcher stopped a hundred feet away, staring at Li Chenzhou. This man looked too much like someone he had met in his youth. Finally, he asked in bewilderment:

"Fellow Daoist...where do you come from?"

The problem is straightforward: that door shouldn't exist in this era.

Li Chenzhou's white robes fluttered, and behind him, Dao patterns that did not belong to this world flowed:

"From where it came from."

The voice was calm, yet it caused the surrounding stars to tremble slightly, as if the words themselves were some kind of unspeakable law.

A giant surrounded by nine divine flames suddenly spoke, his left arm severed at the shoulder, his tone full of praise:

"Fellow Daoist, your talent is extraordinary. You were able to slay the pinnacle even before becoming a king. What a magnificent sight it would be if we could discuss the Dao in the same era as you."

The kings remained silent.

No one underestimated Li Chenzhou because of his cultivation level; his killing techniques on the battlefield had already amazed everyone.

"I don't think you would really want to see that kind of era."

"..."

The starry sky was completely silent.

Several immortal kings twitched their lips slightly. This person's words were truly...interesting.

The tycoon paused for a moment, then chuckled.

Yes, if I were to truly contend with such monsters in the same era, I would probably have had my Dao heart tarnished long ago, and I would not have the qualifications to look down upon the ages today.

But no one felt offended.

Strength speaks for itself.

Li Chenzhou's combat strength was indeed superior to most of the Immortal Kings present.

His potential to touch the forbidden realm even before becoming a king made everyone seem to see the figure of a future emperor rising up.

The butcher suddenly stepped forward.

"That door... I saw it stained with blood during the fall of the Empire."

He paused, then spoke again:

"The one who held the gate ultimately fought his way into the Boundary Sea alone."

Shi Yi also stepped forward and looked at the door behind Li Chenzhou:

"This gate... I have seen it sever eternity."

His voice was deep, carrying a sense of reminiscence.

It wasn't fear, but an imprint etched into the soul, a shock that would never be forgotten after witnessing something truly "impossible."

Li Chenzhou's eyes flickered slightly.

really.

"When you saw the person who used this door..." he asked slowly, the power of time surging around him, isolating him from any cause and effect that might trigger a backlash against spacetime, "was it when he was young, or... after he became the sole ruler of all ages?"

He didn't say the name.

I can't say.

Once those two words are uttered, the entire river of time may erupt in turmoil, and even attract unpredictable attention from upstream and downstream.

But the scene was too blurry, shrouded in the mists of time, as if it were just a phantom in his memory.

"Do you know him?"

For the first time, Shi Yi's voice trembled with urgency, "Where is he? Is he alright?"

When the last four words were asked, this person with double pupils, who was known for his coldness, actually became somewhat nervous.

The starry sky was silent.

The butcher, the burial master, and all the surrounding immortal kings held their breath.

They knew who Shi Yi was looking for.

Li Chenzhou remained silent for a moment.

"he……"

Li Chenzhou spoke, his voice suddenly becoming ethereal, as if it came from across endless ages:

"On the other side, which none of you can reach."

"As for whether you are alright..."

He paused for a moment, then said, "For someone like him, being safe and sound is a luxury."

The light in Shi Yi's eyes subsided, and he stopped asking questions; this was already a good result.

……

The Heavenly Court was completely silent.

Fragments of time swirled in Shi Yi's double pupils, as if he could see that vast wilderness again, see the boy who walked out of Stone Village, and the door in the boy's hand that was exactly the same as that of the mysterious man.

Shi Yi's voice was low and deep, "My only defeat in this life... was to him who controlled this sect."

"I saw this gate in an even more ancient era. The one who held it... stormed into the Boundary Sea, stepping over the corpses of dark giants."

As soon as the two finished speaking, all the kings were shaken.

A single sect spanning two great eras: the fall of the imperial court and the chaotic ancient times?

Even earlier?

This is no longer mysterious, but rather a subversion of cognition. The river of time has its own ironclad laws, and even the Immortal King cannot truly reverse the eternity, but this door... seems to have stood outside of time from the very beginning.

One of the Celestial Kings hesitated, then shook his head. Li Chenzhou's words about the "other side" being "well" were too vague, more like a prophecy than a fact.

A young man walked away, and everyone made way.

There stood a young man with disheveled black hair and black blood still dripping from his armor.

Small stone.

The ruler of Heaven, son of Shi Hao.

He suddenly turned around, his gaze sweeping over the kings. "I might know who he is."

"My father once mentioned it to me," Little Stone said calmly, as if recounting an old story. "When he was young, he had a guide."

"boom!"

The Heavenly Horned Ant suddenly became excited: "That's right! Huang also mentioned it when we were drinking, saying something like, 'Without that person guiding me, I wouldn't have been able to leave the Great Wilderness!'"

Another aged voice rang out:

"I... also remember it."

An old man in hemp clothing walked slowly. When Little Stone saw him, he immediately bowed and paid his respects.

Meng Tianzheng, the last Grand Elder of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, was a true mentor and father figure to Shi Hao on his cultivation journey.

Meng Tianzheng stroked his long beard, his eyes filled with a sense of vicissitude: "After that child became an Immortal King, he returned to the mortal realm to pay respects to his ancestors, and sat alone before my grave for three days. During that time, he mentioned someone who 'should not exist in this world'..."

The echoes of the conversation had not yet faded when the kings looked at each other in bewilderment.

When Shi Yi was a teenager, during the Butcher's era of decline, when Shi Hao was a child, after becoming an immortal king... the traces of this door and its owner are like a spider web that runs through the entire ancient history.

But the timeline is completely messed up. Is this person from the past or the future?

That's enough.

The deceased suddenly spoke.

"Since it involves him, he is a friend, not an enemy."

"As for who he is and when he came from, there's no need to delve into that."

The kings suddenly regained their senses.

Yes.

Whether the other party is Shi Hao's guide or some time-traveling ghost, what truly weighs on their heads right now is the darkness.

Following the updates has never been so enjoyable.
