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

Zixia suddenly looked up at Li Qingchen, who was blinking his innocent, bright green eyes.

There was a slight tremor in his voice that he himself didn't even notice: "Qingchen, what does your father look like? Does he like fishing? Does he seem to have a gentle, somewhat lazy demeanor?"

Li Qingchen nodded: "Yes, yes, that's just how my dad is. He sits by the water all day with a bamboo pole, and he can sit there for a long time. He always says he's a professional fisherman."

"But he's really good to me, though sometimes he likes to tease me and gives me weird things..."

As Zixia listened to Li Qingchen's description, the ordinary face in her mind, always with a gentle and lazy smile, gradually overlapped with the innocent and carefree smile of the girl in front of her.

She suddenly looked up at Li Qingchen, who was blinking his innocent, bright green eyes.

These amulets were given to her by that senior, Mr. Li.

Senior Li already has such a grown daughter.

So many years have passed, and he has indeed started a family and has his own bloodline to continue...

"But why did Senior Li suddenly go to the other side of the starry sky? Could he be an unfathomable powerhouse?"

Zixia was filled with doubts, but she quickly suppressed them. "Impossible! I once heard the Holy Lord mention that this world has entered the Dharma-ending Age, and Holy Lord-level beings are absolute powerhouses!"

"Even a king at the Dao-Slaying level in Immortal Realm 3 would have absolutely no chance of traversing the starry sky!"

"So, Senior Li must have accidentally entered some teleportation array and been transported to another planet in outer space. Because he was far from his homeland and had no possibility of returning, he developed the idea of ​​starting a family?"

A faint sense of melancholy, which Zixia herself had never pondered, arose inexplicably in her heart, as if some distant and vague thought had quietly dissipated before it could be clearly understood.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the inexplicable emotions in her heart.

When she looked at Li Qingchen again, her gaze had softened, even carrying a hint of tenderness that she herself was unaware of.

She carefully put away the three runes without refusing them.

"Thank you, Qingchen."

Zixia reached out and gently ruffled Li Qingchen's hair, her tone unusually tender. "I'll keep these amulets for you for now. If you have any questions or need anything in the Holy Land, just tell me."

"Um!"

Li Qingchen nodded vigorously, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

She didn't understand why her master suddenly seemed a bit sentimental.

But her master treated her even better, and she could feel it, which made her very happy.

"Let's go, our backup should be here soon, let's get out of here."

Zixia took Li Qingchen's hand, and once again rode the divine rainbow towards the meeting point agreed upon with her fellow disciples from the Holy Land.

This time, however, her flight was more stable, and the protective aura around her was softer, firmly protecting the girl beside her.

......

Several months passed by in a flash.

The ancient land of the Demon Emperor's Tomb is no longer as desolate as it once was.

A few days ago, several powerful demons clashed with the elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven outside the ruins, accidentally triggering the demon array patterns buried deep in the earth's veins, causing the ancient, sealed palace to manifest and burst forth with precious light.

The news spread like wildfire, reaching several surrounding states.

For the past few months, Li Qingshan has been staying near the half-collapsed ancient pagoda, guarding the small pond.

During the day, he was like an extremely patient angler, holding that green bamboo pole, able to sit still for hours on end.

Occasionally, some low-level demonic beasts or rogue cultivators blinded by treasures would approach this seemingly peaceful corner, and before they could even see the person clearly, they would inexplicably slip and fall into a mud pit that suddenly appeared.

Or perhaps they were struck in the pressure point by a stone that flew from somewhere and fell into a deep sleep, only to wake up outside the ruins, vaguely forgetting why they came there.

Li Qingshan lived a rather leisurely life.

The process of solidifying the second fishing ground is progressing steadily.

He could sense that the Dao Beacon that had sunk into the core of the Demon Emperor's tomb was like a seed that had taken root, gradually binding itself to the Eternal World, this fishing ground among the myriad heavens.

And every now and then, he would bring back some trinkets from the "Heavenly Pool" with this "Heavenly Cutting Pole".

Sometimes it's exotic ores from another world, sometimes it's the terrifying blood of ancient and savage beasts, or sometimes it's weapons and tools from some great world...

In particular, the old Golden Crow Nirvana True Feather allowed him to fish up a strange bone fragment the size of a palm, entirely purple-gold, and heavy in texture.

The bone fragment has a very special shape, with natural curves and angles on its edges. Upon closer inspection, it turns out to be a fragment of a sternum.

It is naturally engraved with dense, mysterious patterns. These patterns move slowly like living things, emitting an extremely violent aura of lightning, as if a never-ending ocean of thunder is sealed inside.

Li Qingshan held the bone fragment in his hand and played with it for a while. He carefully examined it with his divine sense and tried to resonate with it by stimulating his own blood and qi. He quickly saw through its true nature.

"A supreme bone born of nature, containing some kind of divine power of lightning."

He rubbed the sternum in his palm, feeling the runes pulsating at his fingertips, a hint of joy in his eyes.

"Perfect for integrating into my sternum, enough to illuminate the divine particles surrounding this area!"

He carefully sensed the characteristics of the lightning power within the bone fragment—domineering, violent, seemingly above all thunder, carrying an innate sense of judgment.

"This lightning is extremely domineering, like a born emperor. How about we name this innate divine power 'Emperor Lightning'?"

Li Qingshan was in high spirits after naming this unexpectedly acquired new material.

He guided it to his sternum and began refining it according to a fixed cultivation path.

In an instant, a warm, purplish-gold light burst forth from the sternum area.

The supreme bone fragment floated in the center of the sternum, and the mysterious runes on it began to slowly rotate. With each rotation, a wisp of pure purple-gold lightning Dao essence separated from it, like a trickle of water, seeping into the depths of the surrounding bones.

The target of this lightning-like energy is very clear.

In the area around the sternum, there are those divine particles that have long been awakened but have remained dim.

Li Qingshan has a total of 3.6 million awakened particles in his body, of which one million have been lit up and are shining brightly.

The remaining 2.6 million particles, though awakened, remained in a dim state, like sleeping stars, waiting to be infused with the first ray of light.

The surge of lightning energy at this moment was illuminating the dim particles around the sternum.

One grain, ten grains, a hundred grains, a thousand grains.

Each dim particle that is touched will have a faint purple-gold spot of light shining at its center.

The light was tiny, like a candle flame just lit in the night, flickering but real.

The moment the light point illuminates, the particle changes from a dim state to an illuminated state.

Although its light is still very faint, far less than that of the previous million brilliant particles, it is no longer lifeless and dull, but has truly come alive.

Thousands of grains become tens of thousands of grains, and tens of thousands of grains become hundreds of thousands of grains.

The entire process lasted for several days.

After the Supreme Bone Fragment was completely integrated, the number of dim particles that were illuminated in the area around the sternum finally settled at around 230,000.

Two hundred and thirty thousand divine hidden particles.

These newly lit particles, emitting a faint purplish-gold light, gathered around the sternum like a newly ignited spark.

Their light was still very faint; from a distance, one could only see a hazy halo enveloping the sternum.

But compared to the previous lifeless and gloomy state, it is now a world of difference.

Li Qingshan looked down at his chest.

The purplish-gold halo peeked through the skin, gentle and understated, not dazzling.

He could clearly sense that each of the 230,000 newly lit particles contained a faint trace of the Emperor's Thunder Will.

They are still very young at this moment, but as long as they are fed with enough lightning-attribute divine objects in the future, these particles will gradually become brilliant and eventually stand shoulder to shoulder with those one million predecessors.

Li Qingshan withdrew his gaze from his inner vision, opened his eyes, and refocused his attention on the calm water in front of him, as well as the increasingly noisy ruins of the ancient temple in the distance.

In the past few months, besides staying here to solidify the fishing spot and occasionally casting a few lines, he has also seen Ye Fan from afar several times.

That kid had come to the outer perimeter of the ruins with the people from Lingxu Cave Heaven, seemingly searching for something. His figure was more upright than a few months ago, and his eyes were sharper. There was a faint golden aura flowing on his body, indicating that his cultivation of the Wheel Sea chapter of the Dao Scripture was on track.

Li Qingshan didn't go to acknowledge them; he just glanced at them from afar before continuing to focus on his float.

Until this day.
