Covering the Sky: A Guide to Proving the Dao Without Cheats

The light shield clings tightly to the stone wall, forming a fairy pool only a few feet in diameter, which could be called the tenth fairy lake.

"The Western Queen Mother and the Great Accomplished Holy Body!" Luo Heng exclaimed upon seeing this.

The three took a few more steps forward. Although the Great Accomplished Holy Body and the Western Queen Mother made no unusual movements, their Emperor-level pressure was enough to make one's body feel like it was about to crack, making it difficult to truly get close.

The ripples spread outwards, revealing divine markings imprinted there—carved by the Great Emperor Wushi himself. Beside them was the Yaochi Stele, confirming the Western Emperor's identity.

"Want to save your parents' lives?"

Luo Heng stared at the four characters on the stone wall of Yaochi and fell silent for a moment.

Luo Heng knew that even with Wei Yi activating the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron and the Devouring Demon Jar in his hand, he could not advance any further and had to stop.

He channeled his divine power, activating the lid of the Devouring Demon Jar between his brows, attempting to discern the true faces of the two. However, the Western Queen Mother remained shrouded in chaotic mist, making her difficult to see clearly.

The supreme majesty of the Great Accomplished Holy Body was also obscured by golden hair, making it difficult to see its true face.

However, a crack can still be faintly seen on his forehead, which is likely the reason why his primordial spirit was severely injured back then, causing the curse of the underworld to erupt.

As Luo Heng gazed at the two people before him, their extraordinary and unparalleled demeanor inspiring awe and admiration, he was captivated and momentarily lost in thought.

Just then, a bone-chilling cold emanated from the lid of the Devouring Demon Jar between his brows, and the scene before him became blurry.

An incredible scene appeared as if it were real, as if it had transcended eternity and reappeared in this moment.

He was a magnificent man, standing tall under the sky like the ruler of the entire world, overlooking the six directions and eight wastelands.

However, he was very tired at this moment, and his body was emanating waves of bluish-purple energy, especially his forehead, where golden hairs were also emerging from his body.

"I can't grow old with you anymore. Let me be free and send me on my way." He turned around and said to a peerless beauty who was equally stunning, his voice filled with indescribable helplessness and reluctance.

The woman in white had a face full of sorrow, tears streaming down her face, and she clenched his thick, broad hand tightly.

"If our child cannot become an immortal, he can still rebuild the Heavenly Court and rule the rise and fall of the world!" In those final moments, when the man spoke of his child, his face was filled with pride and confidence, radiant with joy.

……

Although Luo Heng felt as if a long time had passed, it was actually only a moment.

Gai Jiuyou and Wei Yi both noticed that his expression was different, and their expressions changed slightly.

Wei Yi then directly pushed the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron, which emitted a clear and melodious dragon roar.

The dragon's roar transformed into a black ripple, sweeping across everyone. The scene before Luo Heng's eyes shattered.

He shook his head, glancing absently at Gai Jiuyou and Wei Yi. Seeing their solemn expressions, he snapped out of his daze and quickly told them what he had seen.

Upon hearing this, the two realized it was a misunderstanding and were relieved.

However, Luo Heng's expression was somewhat strange at this moment.

He remembered that in the original story, Ye Fan was able to glimpse the past memories of the Western Emperor and the Great Accomplished Sacred Body through the connection between the bloodlines of the Sacred Body.

But he never expected that he could recreate such a scene using only the lid of the Devouring Demon Jar.

To this, he could only shout in his heart, "The Ruthless Emperor is awesome..."

After a moment's hesitation, Luo Heng decided to continue watching.

Firstly, although he knew many secrets, they were only written records and were far less real than what he saw with his own eyes.

He remembered that the Western Emperor's memories should contain images of her going all out. If he could witness a great emperor of his time exerting his full power, it would surely be of great benefit to his future cultivation.

Secondly, he was also genuinely curious about what the young Emperor Wushi looked like.

With his mind made up, Luo Heng no longer hesitated. He focused his mind once again and activated the lid of the Devouring Demon Jar between his eyebrows, looking at the Western Emperor and the Great Accomplished Holy Body in the light shield.

The image indeed reappeared.

A stunningly beautiful woman, dressed in flowing white robes, with a sorrowful expression, was seen carrying a corpse as she traversed countless galaxies before striking forward with her palm.

Then, everything was destroyed!

Luo Heng finally witnessed the Emperor's attack. It was so direct that it destroyed everything, making everything invisible. All that could be seen was a scene of creation and destruction, which was completely annihilated.

Finally, he saw the edge of the universe, a huge bronze plaque, split in two.

Nothing could be heard, nothing could be seen. The Western Emperor shattered everything, as if he wanted to destroy the rules of the entire world and re-establish the hope of immortality.

The divine chains of order in the universe snapped, and then came eternal darkness...

Looking into the darkness before him, Luo Heng already knew the outcome of that battle. His mind was filled with complex emotions as he waited silently.

No one knows exactly how much time passed, but the world finally returned to peace.

The Western Emperor, holding the hand of a young child, left behind a graceful yet lonely figure, carrying a hint of desolation and sorrow, as she walked away, gradually disappearing into the vast night.

The child was unusually quiet, neither crying nor making a fuss, as he traveled far away with his mother.

A casual glance back reveals the child's innocent, untouched face.

She looked about two or three years old, with long black hair, bright eyes, and a delicate, exquisite face. Although she was young, she exuded a wisdom that was beyond her years.

"She's so cute, she'd definitely be a stunning beauty if she wore women's clothes!" This thought suddenly flashed through Luo Heng's mind.

He suddenly came to his senses, and the scene before him had completely vanished.

He looked around nervously, making sure no one had noticed his terrible thought, before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

After calming myself down, I began to carefully recall what I had just seen.

Although he already knew about the power of the current emperor from the original novel "Covering the Sky", he was still so shocked by the sight of the Western Emperor taking action that he was speechless.

Once he composed himself and focused his attention on the scene within the light screen, he seemed to be searching for something. Suddenly, he noticed a piece of bronze.

It appeared to be a fragment of some kind of artifact, but it had not actually entered the light barrier and was still some distance away from the two imperial corpses.

Luo Heng glanced at it only once before looking away and continuing his search.

That piece of bronze should be a fragment of the plaque from the Underworld, which should be completely destroyed and devoid of its divinity. Moreover, even if it still retains some power, Luo Heng would never want to touch it lightly.

The curse of the underworld's immortal artifacts is indeed troublesome. Even the powerful Western Emperor was unable to resolve it back then, and even the Great Accomplishment Saint Body in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, despite the personal intervention of a ruthless person, is still plagued by the curse and unable to eradicate it.

He naturally didn't want to get involved with such troublesome things at the moment.

After searching for a while longer without finding the target, Luo Heng spoke solemnly:

"Senior Gai, Senior Wei, could you help me go in and retrieve some things?"

Upon hearing this, both Gai Jiuyou and Wei Yi showed signs of difficulty. Gai Jiuyou pondered for a moment and then said directly, "If we were to force our way in, with our combined abilities and the power of the Supreme Emperor Weapon, it wouldn't be difficult."

only……"

"However, if we forcibly break through the light barrier, not only will it damage the layout of this place, but it may even damage the remains of the Western Emperor and the Great Accomplished Holy Body."

Upon hearing this, Luo Heng did not press the matter further. He straightened his robes, respectfully bowed to the two imperial corpses within the light barrier, and whispered, "Forgive me."

Having said that, she straightened up and gently flicked the silver bracelet on her wrist. As the silver light shimmered, the little girl appeared beside them.

"Big brother, where is this? Hmm, are we underwater?" The little girl looked around, her face full of curiosity.

Luo Heng gently stroked the little girl's hair and said softly, "Yes, we're exploring underwater. Come on, let's go treasure hunting. How about you help me get something first?"

Seeing the little girl happily nod in agreement, he immediately leaned down and whispered a few words in her ear.

The little girl turned her head to look at the light barrier. She seemed to be able to see what was inside, and a look of fear appeared on her face.

However, she quickly mustered her courage and walked step by step toward the light screen.

Strangely enough, the seemingly indestructible light barrier was nothing to the little girl. She moved swiftly and stepped into it with ease.

Before long, the little girl laboriously dragged out a stone box. Upon seeing it, Luo Heng excitedly rushed forward to take it.

"Has this truly come to this life? Suppressing the path to immortality, I have no other choice but to rely on it..."

A man's voice suddenly rang out, devoid of joy or sorrow, calm and undisturbed, echoing gently in the deep water.
