Covering the Sky: My path to becoming an emperor is invincible, thanks to my fellow cultivation of Y

This is also the first step in spiritual practice.

As Li Wangxian cultivated, endless immortal radiance burst forth from his sea of ​​suffering. A dazzling and brilliant immortal light, as radiant as a rainbow, surged around him, with Yin and Yang energies transforming into waves. These were the Yin and Yang immortal seeds absorbing and releasing Daoist essence and spiritual energy. Between the intertwining of the two energies, there were even wisps of chaotic energy shining.

Above the surging black sea of ​​suffering, yin and yang energies swirled and flowed, gradually evolving into wisps of mysterious energy that were indescribable and inexplicable, as if returning to the time before the creation of heaven and earth, a time of utter chaos.

He savored the moment, and a mysterious feeling welled up in his heart. He felt a sense of emptiness in his mind, and wisps of celestial light overflowed from the sea of ​​suffering, flowing to his limbs and bones, making him feel completely comfortable. His flesh, organs, and bones were all being nourished, and at this moment, he felt as if he had inexhaustible strength.

"Is this what spiritual practice is? What a wondrous feeling."

Li Wangxian was very surprised. He was in harmony with the Dao. At this moment, he felt the vibrant life force of the universe and the starry sky, and he also experienced the desolation of the universe and the deathly stillness of the starry sky.

Cultivation knows no time, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed. Li Wangxian, who had been in a state of enlightenment, gradually woke up.

At this moment, an astonishing change occurred in the black sea of ​​bitterness. At its very center, colorful mist rose and swirled with countless divine patterns. It was as if a volcano was reviving beneath the sea of ​​bitterness, with bubbles gushing forth and rays of light constantly bursting out of the water.

Li Wangxian understood this and did not feel confused.

Cultivators in the Bitter Sea Realm must go through several processes. Initially, only a small amount of life essence lingers above the Bitter Sea. As the essence accumulates, it condenses into divine patterns, which lie horizontally above the Bitter Sea like divine iron chains.

As the Sea of ​​Bitterness expands and one's cultivation deepens, bubbles will emerge, bursting to form clouds. Eventually, the bubbles beneath the Sea of ​​Bitterness become like a spring, resembling a volcanic eruption, with clouds rising and spreading, dazzling and magnificent.

When the "volcano" beneath the sea of ​​suffering is fully revived one day, the magnificent clouds will gradually turn into liquid. At that moment, one can attempt to break through to the Life Spring realm. If successful, a divine spring will gush forth from the "crater".

Cultivators in the Bitter Sea Realm must go through these three processes to break through to the Life Spring Realm. Li Wangxian went through the second process today. In the center of the black Bitter Sea, it was almost boiling, with gas gushing out like a spring. There, clouds and mist rose and fell, like a volcano revived, constantly erupting, extremely brilliant.

"If I hadn't woken up in time and suppressed it, I would have gone straight to the Life Spring or even the Divine Bridge Realm."

Li Wangxian was talking to himself, not loudly, but his parents and the old men around him were all cultivators who had achieved some success in their cultivation. How could they not hear him? For a moment, they all showed expressions of surprise and joy.

Chapter 3 Extraordinary Talent

After muttering to himself, Li Wangxian did not rush to read the incomplete Taiyang Jing. Instead, he picked up the Shaoyang Jing and studied it carefully, pondering its meaning. Then, he supplemented it with the insights and experiences left by his predecessors and listened to the old man in the teachings.

After more than ten days, he had consolidated his cultivation and fully mastered all the key points of cultivation in the "Sea of ​​Wheels" secret realm before he opened the Sea of ​​Wheels scroll of the Sun Remnant Scripture.

After truly reciting it, Li Wangxian couldn't help but sigh that the divine power of the ancient emperors was simply unfathomable. Even though it was a fragmentary scripture, the "Tao" and "principle" it contained were far more profound and complex than those in the Shaoyang Scripture.

It is precisely because it is too complicated and some key points are missing that he needs to first study the complete Shaoyang Scripture, understand the complete cultivation path of this realm, and then he will not go astray in his cultivation.

After that, Li Wangxian lived a secluded life, spending most of his time cultivating, except for occasional meals and naps, observing the Yin-Yang Immortal Seeds to comprehend the Sun Scripture.

This is astonishing. The immortal seed contains the complete laws of Yin and Yang. This is an immense blessing. Who in history has been able to use such an invincible immortal seed to comprehend and cultivate at this level?

Thus, the higher-ups in the Sun Cult seemed to see a new myth rising in the history of cultivation.

After observing the waning of the sun for a month, a spring appeared at the very center of Li Wangxian's sea of ​​suffering, which was about half the size of a fist. This spring connected with the wheel of life, and the divine spring was gushing forth, surrounded by a hazy, colorful mist. This was the second minor realm of the secret realm of the sea of ​​life, the spring of life.

Only when a cultivator reaches this stage does he have a source of power, enabling him to unleash various profound techniques and supernatural abilities, possessing unfathomable power. This is a crucial step in a cultivator's transformation; as long as the source of divine power remains inexhaustible, his magical power will be limitless.

At this point, the cultivator was already able to control the divine rainbow. With divine light gushing from the life spring, he could ride the rainbow, flying through the sky and escaping into the earth, using countless exquisite and profound techniques.

Three months later, Li Wangxian observed the Yin-Yang Immortal Seed, comprehended the laws of the sun, and was inspired to create life in the sea of ​​suffering. He nurtured a vibrant life force in the desolation, cultivated a divine vein, and sacrificed it to form a heavenly bridge that spanned the sky, dazzlingly beautiful. He cultivated the third minor realm of the Sea of ​​Wheels Realm, the Divine Bridge Realm.

This realm is truly wondrous. The mysteries of the human body are endless. Powerful cultivators do not want to be trapped in the sea of ​​suffering and want to explore other unknown secret realms of the human body. Thus, the process of forcibly crossing the sea of ​​suffering has begun.

To achieve their goal, cultivators need to undergo a physical transformation, cultivating a divine vein within the Sea of ​​Bitterness to help them overcome obstacles and reach the other side. This is an arduous and lengthy process, during which cultivators grow stronger with each setback, ultimately elevating their Sea of ​​Wheels, forming a divine vein that unleashes their boundless potential. This is the third realm of the Sea of ​​Wheels Realm: the Divine Bridge.

Six months later, Li Wangxian seemed to have been born to cultivate the Dao. He became one with the Dao and had an unparalleled understanding and comprehension of the Great Dao. He grasped the most profound meanings of the Taiyang Remnant Scripture and the Shaoyang Scripture.

Then he actually tried to repair the scriptures of the Sun Remnant Scripture Sea of ​​Secret Realm, and even more surprisingly, with the help of his years of experience comprehending the Sun Dao Law in the Immortal Seed, he actually figured out some tricks.

Unfortunately, he ultimately failed. He was far from being able to create laws or modify scriptures of this level, and he didn't even have the qualifications to be a patcher using the complete solar Dao principles in the Yin-Yang Immortal Seed.

Even so, it is evident that Li Wangxian possesses great ambition and an extraordinary talent for cultivation that is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

After all, who in history has dared to have the ambition to repair the Emperor's Scripture after less than a year of cultivation? And have they really seen some of its secrets?

The benefits this experience brought to Li Wangxian were undoubtedly enormous. He gained an understanding of cultivation and the creation of techniques that ordinary people could not comprehend. His cultivation also reached the peak of the Divine Bridge Realm. His divine veins were crystal clear like a rainbow, stretching across the sea of ​​suffering and heading straight for the outer reaches of the Wheel of Life.

Just then, he noticed something amiss. His vision blurred, and he couldn't see anything, as if he had lost his way. He extended his powerful divine sense, scanning his surroundings, but to his astonishment, all he saw was a hazy mist; nothing else.

My five senses, my spiritual perception... all became blurred. He realized that this was the calamity of being lost in the Divine Bridge Realm.

Only by cultivating the Heavenly Meridian, which lies above the Sea of ​​Bitterness and leads to the other shore, can one find the foundation to escape this predicament. This is the Divine Bridge Realm, a crucial hurdle.

But where does the celestial vein extend from here, traversing the void, to reach the other shore? Some people spend their entire lives unable to see through illusion, trapped on one side of the divine bridge, unable to cross the sea of ​​suffering—this is the calamity of being lost.

In the most severe cases, the five senses may be stripped away, and all spiritual awareness may be lost, turning the person into a mindless and insensible cripple, which is the most terrifying thing.

Most people encounter fog blocking their way when forming a celestial vein, unsure of where to go. However, it's not serious; if you calm down, you can pass through without any obstruction.

Li Wangxian's cultivation has been smooth sailing so far, without any setbacks. He was not hindered or restricted at all before reaching the summit of the Divine Bridge.

It wasn't until this moment that it fully manifested, with endless fog bursting forth, illusions obscuring his spiritual perception and blocking his path—a serious calamity of being lost.

"Cross the sea and you'll reach the other shore!" A life-or-death test lay before him, one he had to face. There was no turning back; otherwise, his five senses—hearing, sight, and so on—would be stripped away, leaving him completely lost.

This is a journey of self-examination. Powerful cultivators must overcome this hurdle themselves and experience it firsthand, otherwise their subsequent cultivation will be overshadowed and their spiritual perception will become dull.

In a sense, although the tribulation of getting lost is a kind of hardship, if one overcomes it, one's mind and body will be cleansed, one's instinctive intuition will be activated, the subconscious will become stronger, one will see through illusions and point directly to the source.

Li Wangxian closed his eyes, remaining motionless and silent like a fossil, until half a month later when he whispered, "I will not lose my way..."

At this moment, in his eyes, the fog was thick and all around, and he felt as if he were trapped in a cage. His mind was immersed in the sea of ​​consciousness, and he could only see a section of the celestial vein, not knowing where to step into.

The calamity of getting lost, known as a test of life and death, is no exaggeration. Many outstanding figures, when looking back on their past, have emphasized that they had overcome this ordeal.

Li Wangxian was truly in danger. His five senses were becoming increasingly numb, and his spiritual awareness was about to disappear. His whole being seemed to be sealed off; he could neither hear nor see... He was like a deaf person, like a blind person.

"I ask myself, where is the other shore?"

Li Wangxian felt no fear or panic; his heart was at peace. He pondered what he had learned earnestly, straining to see through the fog.

Finally, he did find a way: by simply meditating on the grand vision he had experienced that day, he could break through the fog and see through the sea of ​​suffering. But he didn't do that. Instead, he carefully questioned himself and regarded it as a rare opportunity for self-improvement.

"The other shore, the other shore, is turning back the shore?" He kept asking himself, saying, "The path of cultivation is winding and long. How can I turn back? How can I turn back? I should forge ahead bravely."

The fog remained thick, and his senses grew increasingly numb. He felt he was about to lose all his awareness, an unprecedented danger that might stop him here, turning him into a cripple.

"According to records, the greater one's potential, the more difficult it is to escape the danger of getting lost. I am not discouraged, but rather glad."

Li Wangxian remained calm and composed, showing no panic, but instead gaining even greater confidence.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed, and he still hadn't emerged from the fog.

Time passed slowly, and for two whole months, Li Wangxian was experiencing the calamity of being lost. When his five senses were completely deprived, he could not perceive anything.

“The other shore, the other shore, is not the opposite shore. Why search for it? Wherever I go, it is there. The place where I stand is the other shore,” Li Wangxian said calmly.

"Rumble..."

The clouds surged and quickly dissipated, revealing a clear sky and everything before our eyes.

In an instant, the fog dissipated, his five senses were reawakened, more acute than ever before, and a mysterious radiance enveloped him, as if he were being baptized.

He passed the test of life and death, saw through the danger of being lost, his "instinct" was baptized, his consciousness surged out like a bolt of lightning, and the range of his perception became wider and wider. His body and mind seemed to have been tempered.

Li Wangxian immersed his mind in the Sea of ​​Wheels. At this moment, that Heavenly Vein became even thicker and more translucent, like a purple-gold beam spanning the sea, leading to an unknown place.

He ascended the sacred bridge and stepped directly across, just as he had said, wherever he went was the other shore, and he crossed the sea.

The heavenly veins shone brightly. He crossed the sea of ​​suffering and arrived at the end, a pure land shrouded in mist. High in the sky, he vaguely saw a huge Taoist palace.

White clouds drifted by, obscuring the view, and the Dao Palace disappeared from sight, never to be seen again. Li Wangxian did not feel regret. He had just reached the other shore, but had not yet achieved perfection. How could he enter the secret realm of the Dao Palace?

The legendary Dao Palace corresponds to the chest region of the human body, where five deities reside. When cultivating in this secret realm, all sorts of strange things will happen.

The spirit of the valley never dies; it is called the mysterious female. The gate of the mysterious female is the root of heaven and earth.

The Five Gods give birth to the Five Elements, and the Five Qi are pure and subtle. They communicate with Heaven and connect with Earth, continuously and endlessly, and can generate the power of the Dao.

After reaching the other shore realm, he felt the changes within himself. His essence, energy, and spirit were sublimated, his divine power surged, and the sea of ​​suffering expanded to the size of a palm, shimmering and dazzling.

He felt as if he could shatter the sky with a single palm strike and crack the earth with a single kick; this was a strange illusion that arose after his strength increased.

Chapter 4 Lunar Sun

After a year of cultivation, he crossed four minor realms and stepped into the other shore, the last minor realm of this Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm.

If word of this cultivation speed were to spread, it would shake the entire Ziwei Ancient Star. Many Great Emperors did not exhibit this level of talent in their youth. Does this indicate that this child's potential in his youth surpasses that of some Great Emperors?

That's the makings of an emperor!

Having reached the other shore, Li Wangxian did not immediately leave seclusion; he needed to consolidate this realm.

He unexpectedly reached the Great Perfection of the Other Shore, undergoing a metamorphosis like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon. After all, he had only just reached this realm and still needed to accumulate experience for a while.

Afterwards, he silently recited the ancient scriptures and remained silent for another ten days before finally waking up completely, completing this cultivation, stabilizing his current Other Shore Realm, and even uncontrollably improving his cultivation by one point.

"Having reached this stage in my cultivation, it's time to pause for a while and refine some artifacts!"

After stopping his cultivation, Li Wangxian had a sudden thought and probed his sea of ​​consciousness. At this moment, yin and yang energies were rising above the black sea of ​​suffering, and countless divine patterns, about a thousand in total, were swirling around it.

Each "divine rune" is like a divine iron chain, swirling above Li Wangxian's black sea of ​​suffering. This is the original form formed by the condensation of life essence.

Cultivators can conjure "divine runes" into various shapes, such as throwing knives and daggers, which can be released outside the body to kill enemies, making them more effective than simple "divine runes".

Some people spend a lot of time and effort transforming the original "divine runes" into flying swords, small shields, divine halberds, etc., which are easier to control and will be much more powerful when fighting enemies.

Some individuals, unafraid of complexity and mystery, repeatedly refine their "divine runes," crafting them into cauldrons, bells, or towers, which can unleash various mysterious powers.

Legend has it that a very few cultivators can refine "artifacts" with "divine runes," which may undergo unexpected changes in the later stages, with "trajectory of the Dao" weaving inside the "artifact," giving it unfathomable power.

Of course, the probability of this is extremely low, and only those exceptionally talented and powerful cultivators might have such an opportunity.

Based on past experience, the more complex and mysterious a weapon is when it is crafted using primordial "divine runes," the greater its power.

Compared to "ding" (鼎), "zhong" (钟), or "ta" (塔), which are interwoven with the "trajectory of the Dao" (道), the hope for such a vessel might be greater.

Of course, the more complex the "tool", the harder it is to shape. Even with endless effort and time, it is not guaranteed that a basic outline can be forged, and time will be wasted in vain.

Moreover, even if one succeeds by chance, it is difficult to reap the rewards in the later stages of arduous practice.

After all, the hope of discovering the "trajectory of the Dao" is too slim. For most cultivators, it is just a legend, belonging only to a very few exceptionally talented individuals.

Refining the original "divine runes" into "weapons" is extremely important for cultivators, and everyone takes it seriously because it is the foundation for their future "control of objects".

According to the scriptures, the four realms of suffering, life spring, divine bridge, and other shore can each forge a "vessel".

He was already a cultivator at the Sea of ​​Wheels Realm and the Other Shore Realm, but he had not yet forged his first weapon. He was seriously considering what to choose, because this was a matter of great importance. Once a weapon was forged into shape, it would be difficult to change.

Moreover, the first "vessel" is the foundation for the future, and its function is much greater than that of the vessels forged in other realms.

Having chosen the path of cultivation, Li Wangxian decided to consider everything from a long-term perspective, first ruling out ordinary weapons such as flying swords, shields, and spears.
