Covering the Sky: The Years I Was the Empress's Strictest Master

Tan Lin shook his head and closed his eyes on the spot.

He had brewed and drunk countless cups of this tea during his seclusion under the tea tree in the Realm of Enlightenment, so it was nothing new to him.

For him now, this thing is better than nothing.

Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that,

In such a blessed land, the three of them all made progress in their cultivation.

Tan Lin's cultivation has now reached the ninth minor stage of the Saint King realm, and he is only one step away from the perfection of this realm. He has almost caught up with Shao Hanyun, who reached this realm more than ten years ago.

Shao Hanyun saw his rapid progress and was anxious about it.

However, if she hadn't been so fixated on reaching the forbidden realm of gods before entering the Great Saint realm, she might have already broken through two years ago.

However, she was so ambitious that she seemed determined to reach the pinnacle of her abilities.

Seeing her like this, Tan Lin sighed inwardly.

While achieving the Divine Forbidden Realm has a chain reaction-like significance for future enlightenment, it is not absolute. It is not impossible to enter the Divine Forbidden Realm after becoming a Great Sage.

If we really insist on getting to the bottom of this, we'll just be focusing on something unrealistic.

He had offered a subtle piece of advice on this matter once, but seeing the other party's persistence, he didn't try again.

That said, his cultivation progress has also slowed down intentionally over the past two years.

One of the reasons is that he is using the secret methods of the Holy Body lineage to refine his previous cultivation level time and time again.

Each time, the effort, resources, and time required are much greater than the last time.

But his foundation, strength, and even combat power are all increasing.

From his own perspective, he could defeat his past self, who was at the peak of the Saint King realm, with a single punch!

In short, in one sentence.

In this life... he was truly terrifyingly strong!

……

Spiritual practice knows no days or months.

And so, another half year passed in the cave.

Swish!

One day, as if sensing something, Tan Lin opened his deep eyes.

He then activated the Soul Bead and entered the [Reverse All Causes Vision] state.

hum...

The crimson mist surged, and he saw the location of the anchor point of the causal line of "Gu Qingying," which was already "within reach"!

Seeing this, he did not hesitate and left the cave silently.

He didn't disturb Shao Hanyun and Xiao Liu, who were at a crucial moment in their cultivation, and went alone to the outside of the Sea Eye of Life Spring.

at the same time.

Lingbao Tianzun above the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

Approximately twenty years ago, the nine life springs gushed forth, and the divine bridge appeared.

After Jiang Wanqing, Suiren Lianlei, Guangyuan and others went to the Five Visceral Divine Realm Continent, this place remained relatively quiet for several years before welcoming wave after wave of visitors from the outside world.

The number of cultivators accumulated over more than ten years, excluding those who perished here during that period, has already reached a new scale.

On the surface of the Bitter Sea, in the boundless area surrounding the Nine Life Springs, dozens of ancient ships float like stars in the sky.

The monks on the ship were either sitting cross-legged to regulate their breathing or talking in hushed tones.

But most people still gazed intently into the distance at the central Life Spring Waterfall that stretched from the sky to the earth, where the aura of four killing swords emanated, both terrifying and alluring.

"I've heard that the goddess of the Ziwei Jiang family and the others broke into the 'Other Shore of the Gods' many years ago..."

"Oh? How do you know they entered the realm of the gods, instead of perishing in this sea?"

"Heh, if it's about dying, it's impossible that everyone who came in before us is dead, right? According to us, the first group of people, when they came in, this place was completely empty, there wasn't a single person there..."

"So, does that mean that old ape, along with the immortal golden-bodied Tan Lin and the demon lord Shao Hanyun who were traveling with him, are also in the Divine Realm?"

"They're lucky; they caught the right time. Unlike us, who knows how many more years we'll have to wait..."

"This is only one possibility. Some of those people must have perished here, unable to reach the realm of the gods..."

"..."

"Damn it, I really want to enter that central spring, even just get a little closer. If I could obtain some of the supreme divine liquid and glimpse the Heavenly Venerable's methods, this trip would be well worth it..."

"Tsk tsk tsk, is this fellow Daoist daydreaming? Let alone the sword energy in front of you, even those 'corpses' would be enough to make even a Great Sage hesitate!"

"That's right. It's said that someone saw a 'superior body' that had achieved great things in life come back to life and fight a Great Sage Ancient Beast..."

On the ancient ship, discussions rose and fell in waves.

Whoosh!

At that very moment, some people on the sea stopped talking and their eyes widened in unison, as if their eyeballs were about to pop out.

"There's...there's someone in the spring?!"

"It's a living person!!"

Has the ancient Celestial Venerable been resurrected and returned?

"..."

"No... wait, I think I recognize him, he's Tan Lin, the Undying Golden Body!!"

"Yes! He's Tan Lin!! He's actually Tan Lin?!"

"I've seen him on the ancient Golden Road, I can't be mistaken..."

"Heavens! What merit does he possess... to be able to enter the Heavenly Venerable's Spring?"

"..."

After a brief moment of deathly silence, a series of earth-shattering exclamations erupted.

Under the watchful eyes of all directions, a handsome young man dressed in a divine silkworm robe slowly emerged from the spring.

He was surrounded by scriptures closely related to Lingbao Tianzun, which he had obtained from the old ape and Xiao Liu. These scriptures were like tadpoles, swirling around him, causing the killing intent of the swords swimming in the waterfall to evade him on its own.

This scene was utterly unbelievable to everyone around.

Everyone stared in disbelief, their eyes burning with envy and jealousy!

And it was at this time...

The central spring waterfall is a vast distance away, and even at its maximum speed, the ancient ship would take more than half a month to reach the edge of the Bitter Sea.

Boom...

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the void of the desolate borderland.

Followed by.

A staggering stream of seven-colored light flew out, its light dimming to reveal a stunningly beautiful figure covered in blood and with a weakened aura.

It is Tianling!

At this moment, her face was ashen, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

For over a decade, the Great Sage of the Golden Cave and that mysterious half-step Quasi-Emperor were locked in a relentless pursuit. During this time, her injuries continued to worsen, leaving her no time to recuperate.

They were already at their last gasp when they managed to escape to this place.

"Who...is that?"

"..."

"You don't know her?"

"Have you heard of Gu Qingying, the Divine Maiden of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion on the Burial Emperor Star? She has been famous for hundreds of years, and her beauty was already renowned before the Great Era even began. Countless cultivators from beyond the realms have tried to catch a glimpse of her but failed..."

"So it was her?"

"Wasn't it said that the Spring and Autumn Pavilion lineage she belonged to was wiped out overnight? It seems she's still being hunted down?"

"Alas, upon closer examination, this goddess of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion has truly had a tragic fate. Back in the day, I even went to the Burial Emperor Star and attended her Grand Sage Banquet..."

"..."

At this moment, it was not surprising for the cultivators living in the remote border region to see that someone else had arrived.

But when they were drawn to Gu Qingying's aura of a great saint, some of them were first stunned, and then there was an uproar.

Surprisingly, a considerable number of people recognized "Gu Qingying".

This shows that in the past, his name was widely known in a considerable area of ​​the starry sky, and many cultivators may even have treasured his portrait scrolls.

Boom!!

However, the sounds on the sea had not been boiling for more than a few breaths.

Then everyone saw that slightly disheveled, stunningly beautiful figure, and the void behind her cracked open once more.

Two terrifying figures stepped out from the sea, their oppressive aura sweeping across the sea of ​​suffering, causing many nearby ancient ships to shake violently!

On the left is a man dressed in purple-gold armor, wielding the supreme ancient imperial weapon, the Golden Mace.

The person on the right was shrouded in gray mist, with an eerie aura, but his cultivation was even more powerful.

At this moment, the two had caught up to this place. Although their breathing was also somewhat fluctuating, they had obviously experienced some setbacks during the chase. However, their condition was much better than Tian Ling's.

"Escape? Where can you possibly escape to?"

The Great Sage of the Golden Cave sneered, his golden mace pointing at the Heavenly Diamond, a wisp of imperial might locking it in place:

"You are exhausted and near death. Hand over the 'thing' we want to control, and out of consideration for our shared ancient royal lineage, I can persuade Kun Zhou and Di Que to grant you a quick death..."

The mysterious figure in the gray mist remained silent.

But those eyes shrouded in gray mist also firmly locked down all of Tianling's escape routes.

Wow!

At the edge of the Bitter Sea, the aura of ancient imperial weapons and supreme artifacts permeated the air, causing a tremor throughout the universe.

At this moment, it was no longer just the cultivators on the nearby sea who were focusing their attention on this place.

At this moment, many cultivators from millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of miles away all turned their attention to this place.

Those people, looking from afar, saw the Golden Mace and the Divine Silkworm Robe, two supreme ancient imperial weapons, facing each other in mid-air, and they all gasped in astonishment.

"This is terrifying, what on earth happened?"

"The aura emanating from that gray mist is incredibly strong; it's probably comparable to that of the Six-Eared Macaque who entered this forbidden ancient path many years ago..."

"..."

"Those two must be the ones who destroyed the Beidou Spring and Autumn Pavilion lineage back then, right? It's truly unimaginable what secrets the Spring and Autumn Pavilion was hiding that would attract such beings to come knocking after their resurrection?"

"The Spring and Autumn Pavilion is most likely connected to the Divine Silkworm Ridge, a great royal family from the ancient times. The immortal robe worn by this Goddess Gu is probably an ancient royal weapon of that family..."

"Indeed, this kind of extreme aura, even if it is not an ancient emperor weapon, is still a forbidden artifact containing part of the power of an ancient emperor weapon, and it is extraordinary!"

"Heh, so what? One against two, she's badly injured and can't escape..."

"Let's get out of here quickly. Judging from the situation, once that Goddess Gu is cornered, she might choose to fight to the death. We don't want to be caught in the crossfire..."

"What you say is absolutely right, fellow Daoist!"

"go!"

"Come on..."

On the sea, many people, their eyes gleaming, gradually retreated, their minds shaken.

Those who have come here are all renowned heroes from various realms and regions; few are truly foolish. They know what kind of spectacle is worth watching and what kind is not...
