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

"Yes, that's right."

Jack Ma nodded, his gaze towards Ye Fan becoming complex. "This young man possesses the legendary physique—the Ancient Sacred Body. It's a pity, that was his glory before the ancient times."

"Since the end of the ancient era, for countless years, although this physique has occasionally appeared in the world, it has never regained its former power and is completely unable to achieve success in cultivation. It has long since become... well, in worldly terms, a 'useless physique'."

He paused, then added, "Now, rumors are circulating among the immortal sects throughout the Eastern Wilderness that a sapling with an unparalleled 'divine body' has appeared. When I was investigating just now, I sensed that ancient source of supreme yang and strength, brimming with blood energy. I was so excited that I thought my Yan region was about to produce an earth-shattering figure. I never expected it to be this ancient sacred body that has long been abandoned by heaven and earth."

Upon hearing this, the elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven all sighed deeply, their faces filled with disappointment.

The burning desire to snatch Ye Fan away and bring him under their wing had vanished without a trace, and they didn't even want to bother looking at him a few more times.

The expressions of the people from other blessed lands were also varied, with some breathing a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it wasn't our rivals who obtained the extraordinary seedling.

Some felt sympathetic, after all, the aura of the Holy Body's origin fluctuations just now was truly astonishing, the difference was too great.

More often than not, it's a kind of indifference that doesn't concern them.

The atmosphere in the hall, which had been filled with the adoration and attention surrounding Ye Fan, instantly plummeted to freezing point.

The contrast between the two is simply too obvious.

Ye Fan stood in the middle and could clearly feel the gazes falling on him, going from scorching to icy cold, like riding a roller coaster.

Although his expression remained calm, a few doubts arose in his heart.

These strange phrases sound strangely familiar.

I remember now, it's Uncle Li.

Uncle Li once said that he had a special physique and a limitless future, possessing the potential to become an emperor!

He had the potential to be an emperor, but in the end, he was just a useless person.

Uncle Li is indeed a liar!

......

Li Qingchen clenched his fists and muttered, "What the hell? They were just fighting over Brother Ye a moment ago..."

Pang Bo's face was also full of resentment.

The gazes of Lin Jia, Zhou Yi, Wang Ziwen, and the others toward Ye Fan became incredibly complex.

There was sympathy, and also a touch of inexplicable sigh.

Li Xiaoman's gaze lingered on Ye Fan for only a moment before shifting away, as if Ye Fan were no different from the other ordinary classmates around her.

Just as everyone's attention was almost completely diverted from Ye Fan, and they were preparing to discuss how to settle the other "immortal seedlings"...

"what?"

The white-haired old man from Yuding Cave Heaven, who was in charge of investigating Li Qingchen, suddenly let out a soft exclamation of surprise and uncertainty.

He had just probed a wisp of spiritual energy into Li Qingchen's body.

At first, I only felt that the girl had a clear physique and unobstructed meridians, and was a good prospect, but there were no particularly amazing phenomena.

But when his spiritual power tried to explore the origin of his life more deeply, it seemed to hit a soft yet incredibly tough invisible barrier.

That barrier was not a man-made restriction, but rather a natural protection formed by nature.

Behind the barrier, he vaguely sensed a vast, ancient, and noble life force lying dormant.

That aura seemed to resonate with the Azure Dragon of Wood in the world, its vitality was incredibly abundant.

"This...this is..."

The old man withdrew his finger, his face filled with disbelief, and even his voice trembled slightly.

He suddenly looked up at Li Qingchen, who was blinking his big, bright green eyes and looking back at him with an innocent and curious expression.

"Elder Liu, what's wrong?"

Wu Qingfeng, the sect leader of Lingxu Cave Heaven, asked a question, and the other elders also turned their attention back to him.

"Divine Beast Bloodline!"

The old man, known as Elder Liu, took a deep breath, as if to calm the turmoil in his heart, and spoke slowly and deliberately.

Although the voice was lowered, it clearly resonated throughout the hall: "Moreover, it is an extremely pure and profound innate Azure Dragon bloodline of the Wood element!"

......

"What?!"

"Azure Dragon bloodline?!"

"No wonder, no wonder this little girl, despite consuming the sacred spring water and divine fruit, still retains her original appearance—she actually possesses the bloodline of a divine beast?!"

The hall, which had just fallen silent, erupted into chaos as if a boulder had been thrown into it!

All the elders from the blessed lands stood up abruptly, their gazes fixed on Li Qingchen like searchlights.

The fervor, shock, and disbelief in his eyes were ten or even a hundred times stronger than when he looked at Ye Fan earlier!

Even the most glorious ancient sacred body is a thing of the past, a mirage.

However, the innate divine beast bloodline, especially the top-level bloodline of the Azure Dragon, which symbolizes vitality, auspiciousness, and power, is a living, tangible, and unparalleled immortal seedling.

If nurtured properly, this person will definitely become a powerful figure who can awe the world in the future, and may even reach the legendary realm!

"Brother Liu, are you sure you're seeing it clearly? It truly is the innate Azure Dragon bloodline?"

Wu Qingfeng from Lingxu Cave Heaven's voice trembled slightly.

"Absolutely no mistake. Although the aura of the origin of life was mostly concealed by an extremely sophisticated natural barrier, the trace that leaked out was pure and ancient, perfectly matching the innate aura of the Azure Dragon of the Wood element recorded in ancient texts!"

Elder Liu's voice was resolute, his eyes burning with an intensity that seemed to melt.

At this point, everyone became restless.

"Young lady, would you be willing to enter my Golden Cloud Grotto? My grotto will spare no effort and devote all its resources to supporting you!"

"My Jade Cauldron Grotto Heaven possesses... a bloodline perfectly matched with yours!"

"Come to my Misty Cloud Grotto..."

"Behind my Lingxu Grotto-Heaven lies the Yao Guang Sacred Land. If you are willing to join my grotto-heaven, I will certainly send someone to report to my superior sect!"

……

The scene was even more chaotic and intense than when Ye Fan was being tested earlier.

Several venerable elders of the grotto-heaven, usually exuding an air of otherworldly elegance and high prestige, were now practically rolling up their sleeves and arguing on the spot over Li Qingchen, offering increasingly astonishing conditions.

Ye Fan watched this dramatic scene from the sidelines, and his feelings suddenly became complicated.

Uncle Li's daughter actually possesses the bloodline of a legendary innate divine beast.

Thinking about how Uncle Li has remained youthful all these years, the incomprehensible "particles" and "secret techniques" he occasionally utters while fishing, and how he can casually produce all sorts of strange and unusual things.

A thought surfaced uncontrollably once again.

Could it be that Uncle Li is really not an ordinary person?

But soon, Ye Fan shook his head, doubting himself.

If Uncle Li is truly a reclusive immortal or a powerful being, how could Qing Chen have no cultivation at all, appearing like an ordinary high school student?

We still need to squeeze in with them to bring the coffin to Beidou!

Perhaps, Qingchen really is the child that Uncle Li picked up.

Or perhaps Uncle Li just happens to know some folk remedies for health preservation and youthful appearance, and that's because he has a special constitution and a good mindset that he doesn't look old?

Ye Fan felt that his guess was more reasonable.

After all, this world has seen supernatural events like the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin.

But Uncle Li's image of lazily fishing all day and waiting for someone to bring him food is really hard to associate with a "reclusive master".
