Covering the Heavens: Fishing for the Heavens Starting from the Great Accomplished Holy Body

The fire egg fell silent.

Old Golden Crow is making a quick decision.

The exchange proposed by the other party, in terms of value alone, is indeed a loss for me, but the other party's strength is unfathomable, and if they really want to use force, I have no way to deal with them.

Moreover, he desperately needed pure fire energy to replenish the emptiness he experienced after his Nirvana.

Furthermore, the fact that he only exchanged marginal materials and shed old feathers without damaging the nest's foundation or his Nirvana core was already a great act of "goodwill."

"Can."

A moment later, the old Golden Crow's voice rang out, crisp and clear.

"Materials and old feathers, fellow Daoist, please take them yourselves. Blood marrow... please place it outside the nest."

He remained vigilant, not daring to let Li Qingshan directly enter the lair's territory.

"happy."

Li Qingshan smiled and flicked his fingers lightly.

The piece of Crimson Sun Blood Essence transformed into a crimson rainbow, piercing through the storm and turbulent currents, and landed precisely at the edge of the nest without triggering any restrictions.

At the same time, he rolled up his sleeves, and an invisible force swept across the edge of the nest.

A piece of dark gold nest material, about three feet square and an inch thick, along with two palm-sized golden feathers with natural flame patterns on the edges, fell off on their own and flew into his hand.

The material feels warm to the touch, yet is incredibly heavy, containing a stable spatial and solar energy.

The old feather was as light as a feather, but when touched, one could feel a trace of the sharp and scorching imperial aura remaining within it.

The transaction is complete.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist."

The voice of the Golden Crow Emperor came from the fire egg, and this time it was much gentler, even carrying a hint of gratitude.

He was slowly absorbing the Crimson Sun Blood Marrow. The pure and gentle essence of Yang was injected, instantly revitalizing the previously somewhat weak newborn embryo, allowing the rebirth process to continue steadily.

"It's simply a matter of each getting what they need."

Li Qingshan put away the materials and old feathers, patted Xiao Qing's head, and said, "Alright, we've got the good food. We should go now and not disturb them from incubating their eggs."

The little green dragon was still a little tempted by the fire egg.

But seeing the newly acquired old feather in Li Qingshan's hand, which exuded an alluring scent, he still obediently nodded.

"Fellow Daoist, wait a moment!"

Just as Li Qingshan was about to leave, the Golden Crow Emperor suddenly spoke again.

"I will remember your kindness today. May I ask your name, my friend? If fate allows, perhaps..."

"My name is Li Qingshan."

Li Qingshan stated his name directly, "May you undergo your rebirth well. This path is not easy. I hope that in the future, on the other side of the starry sky, we will see a golden crow truly soaring through the heavens!"

Having said that, he didn't linger. He took a step and disappeared from the spot with Xiaoqing.

......

At the heart of the storm, inside the lair.

The fire egg floated silently, absorbing the blood essence of the crimson sun, its light stable and full of vitality.

Beside him, the Golden Sage, who had lost both wings, was now in his true form, curled up in a ball to heal his wounds, his breath faint.

After a long while, a complex sigh came from within the fire egg, whispering:

"Li Qingshan... I've never heard of such a person before. Although I lost my Golden Wings today, I gained his blood and marrow, which is a true blessing for my rebirth. What's even more remarkable is that he didn't harbor any greed and actually acted as if it were a transaction..."

"Golden Glory".

"Your subordinate is at..."

A weak voice responded.

"Today's calamity is due to your recklessness and your offense against the Emperor's might. However, this misfortune has also brought a blessing in disguise, leading to a deal with this senior and granting me an opportunity. You have lost your wings and your cultivation has been greatly damaged, but your foundation has not been destroyed. Once I have completed my Nirvana, I will find a way for you to continue your path."

"Remember this lesson: we must learn from today's events and be grateful to that senior for sparing our lives and making the deal with us."

"Yes, Ancestor, I understand."

The Great Sage Jinhuang's voice was bitter, yet he dared not complain.

Upon reflection, the other party did indeed show mercy; otherwise, I would have been roasted whole.

He was naturally aware of the importance of that blood marrow to the ancestor.

The nest returned to silence.

The old golden crow deeply engraved the name "Li Qingshan" in the depths of the Nirvana True Spirit.

This mysterious entity, through what seemed like a casual transaction today, provided crucial assistance when he was at his most vulnerable.

Such cause and effect may be richly rewarded in the future.

They really have to thank Li Qingshan!

......

Beyond the endless galaxy, the turmoil has temporarily subsided.

In that familiar old house on Earth, the flow of time seemed to become lazy and peaceful.

Li Qingshan leisurely took out the pair of golden crow wings that he had obtained from the Golden Emperor.

"You have to try something new."

He muttered to himself, a wisp of golden flame flashing from his fingertip, and the pair of wings floated in mid-air, emitting a faint "sizzling" sound under the precise control of the Dao Fire.

Without adding any ordinary seasonings, the pure Yang essence and fragments of the Great Dao contained in the Golden Crow Wings began to transform into an indescribable, rich, and exotic fragrance under the stimulation of the flames.

The fragrance is not overpowering, yet it lingers and doesn't dissipate. It carries the warmth of the sun and the mystery of the starry sky. Just smelling it makes one feel completely relaxed, as if the very source of life is cheering.

Little Green had long been drawn by the aroma, and it floated in mid-air, circling around the wings that were gradually turning golden and crispy, its dragon saliva almost dripping down.

"Dad~~ It smells so good! Give me a bite, just a tiny bite!"

It nuzzled Li Qingshan's wrist with its head, pleading in a childish voice.

"Children shouldn't be given too much nourishment."

Li Qingshan slowly and methodically flipped his wings, ensuring that every inch was heated evenly.

"This is the very essence of a Great Sage-level Golden Crow! If you eat any more, your body will burst!"

Soon, the wings were cooked.

Li Qingshan took one down; it was warm to the touch, with a golden-brown, crispy outer skin and flesh inside that resembled concentrated red chalcedony, its luster subtle yet profound.

He took a sip, and instantly, a powerful yet gentle solar essence melted in his mouth, which was then silently absorbed and transformed by the millions of divine particles within his body.

The taste is indeed superb, far surpassing any ordinary delicacy.

Xiaoqing stared wide-eyed, and in her eagerness, she wagged her tail wildly in the air.

Li Qingshan ate most of it, and seeing Xiaoqing's extremely hungry look, he chuckled and shook his head.

He gently scraped the remaining wing bone with his fingertip, condensing a drop of the most diluted, and relatively mild, golden oil.

Those were the scraps that came out during the baking process, and all the violent elements had been removed.

"Here, you are only allowed to eat this much. Slowly chew it and absorb it through your internal energy."

He flicked the drop of golden oil at Xiaoqing.

Xiao Qing immediately opened her mouth wide to catch it, then happily shrank back into Li Qingshan's sleeve and obediently went to refine it.

Even though it was only one drop, the aroma was enough to satisfy it.

Li Qingshan then leisurely finished enjoying the remaining Golden Crow Wings, casually putting the bones into the bait warehouse, and then washed his hands.

Night had fallen, and he sat alone in the old rattan chair in the old house, his fingertips unconsciously tapping the armrest, his eyes unfocused.

The unique Daoist charm of the Golden Crow Clan contained within the Golden Crow's wings just now reminded him once again of the dark golden fire egg he had glimpsed deep within the "Abyss of Flowing Fire".

That kind of Nirvana spirit—breaking through destruction and then rebuilding, igniting a new life force in the midst of annihilation—is very special.

It's not simply about healing or prolonging life; it's more like a complete negation and reconstruction of one's own path, carrying resolute courage and a subtle "gambling" spirit.

"To live a second life..."

Li Qingshan muttered to himself, picked up an old enamel mug beside him, and took a sip of warm tea.

His path was different from that of most cultivators in this world.

Without relying on the elixir of immortality or severing one's own body, one follows the path of fishing through the heavens, refining all laws, and creating a microscopic universe of one's own.

In theory, they have long lifespans and almost no worries about their lifespan.

However, the concept of "Nirvana," with its inherent meaning of "living towards death" and "breaking the established order," provided considerable inspiration for him in refining his still-emerging microscopic universe system.

His "divine microparticles" have illuminated millions, which seems like a lot, but compared to the total of 840 million, a number that symbolizes the infinite secrets of the human body, it is just the beginning.

How can we take these already lit particles to the next level, and even allow the unlit particles to naturally evolve into the unique "divine treasures" belonging to the Heaven-Covering Law system?

Perhaps we can find some inspiration from this idea of ​​"rebirth" and transformation.

"We need to find some ways to speed things up!"

He put down the cup, and with a thought, a feather about the size of a palm, with natural flame patterns flowing along its edges, appeared between his fingers.

It was one of the two golden crow feathers exchanged from the old golden crow's rebirth nest.

This true feather carries part of the original Dao patterns and life imprint of a quasi-emperor peak powerhouse who once failed to break through to the Emperor Realm but resolutely chose to be reborn.

It is also imbued with the unique spirit of the transition between the old and the new during its nirvana.

Although its essence is restrained and it appears dull, its true nature is extremely high, and the cause and effect and fortune it contains are quite special.

Without further hesitation, the fishhook appeared at his fingertip, its chaotic luster swirling.

He carefully tied the dark gold feather to the hook, his movements slow and gentle, as if performing some ancient ritual.

Then, facing the seemingly empty void in front of him, he flicked his wrist slightly.

There was no sound of air being cut, no dazzling light.

The fishing hook with Zhenyu attached seemed to sink into an invisible layer of water, and tiny, almost imperceptible transparent ripples spread through the air.

At the center of those ripples, a profound and mysterious depth seemed to connect to the Void of All Realms and the Source of Laws.

It is the mysterious and profound "Heavenly Pool".

The fishhook, carrying the true feather that bore part of the old Golden Crow's path and the mark of its rebirth, sank silently into the water, awaiting the unpredictable "bite".
