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

Ignoring the heavenly tribulation, she was about to rush over.

"go back!"

Tan Lin's primordial spirit reconstituted his physical body; although his aura was weak, his eyes remained cold.

"Continue the tribulation!"

"But……"

Li Qingjue looked at Tan Lin's almost transparent primordial spirit with tears in her eyes, her heart breaking.

"No buts."

Tan Lin's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable authority:

"Have you forgotten what I said? If you do not attain enlightenment today, we will both die here..."

"I……"

Li Qingjue gritted her teeth, looking at Tan Lin's resolute eyes. Her chest heaved, her heart filled with resentment, but in the end, under his gaze, she had no choice but to suppress the pent-up frustration and invisible rebellion.

He once again unleashed his full power to trigger the heavenly tribulation.

But half of her heart was still tied to Tan Lin.

"Good! Good! Good!"

The Celestial Venerable of Longevity, enraged, laughed instead and uttered three "good"s:

"Even in this state, you still managed to kill Wang Sheng right in front of us. You're quite something!"

"But, this is the end for you too."

The Demon Mist Supreme's voice was hoarse, gray mist surged, and killing intent boiled:

"Although you have died, you have already reached your limit after being hit by our attack. No matter how solid your origin is or how young and vigorous your blood and energy are, you must have reached your limit."

"I'll take you to see him right away!"

Not far away, the Fallen Immortal Supreme remained silent.

But the Divine Demon Lamp shone brightly, its dim yellow light illuminating the starry sky, threatening to completely corrupt Tan Lin's primordial spirit.

Tan Lin stood in the void. Although he had reconstructed his physical body, his aura was extremely weak.

The state of "the return of the three energies" has long since disappeared.

His past life's Dao fruit dissipated, and that invincible combat power, which to some extent temporarily surpassed anyone in this world, left him.

His aura plummeted.

He went from being comparable to a great emperor of his time to falling back to his original level.

Although still powerful, it has been severely damaged and is no longer able to contend with the Supreme Being.

"it's over……"

The Celestial Venerable of Immortality, with his profound gaze, discerned Tan Lin's condition:

"How many more moves can you last now? Why don't you come back to the Immortal Mausoleum with me? I'll grant you..."

Tan Lin remained silent, only gripping the Immortal Ascension Cauldron tightly in his hand.

Inside the cauldron, the primordial spirit of the Supreme Being of Rebirth was being refined, emitting roars of unwillingness, showing that it had not yet completely perished.

But none of this could change his current desperate situation.

"kill!"

Seeing that words were ineffective, the Celestial Venerable of Immortality unleashed the Immortal Sword once more, its emerald light tearing through the sky as it aimed directly at Tan Lin.

The Demon Mist Supreme and the Fallen Immortal Supreme also attacked simultaneously, unleashing their deadly moves.

Faced with the combined attack of the three supreme beings, Tan Lin was powerless to resist.

He wielded the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, barely managing to block the Longevity Sword, but the giant gray mist hand of the Demon Mist Supreme and the divine and demonic lamp light of the Fallen Immortal Supreme landed squarely on him.

puff!

His physical body was blasted apart again, and his soul dimmed considerably.

This time, the defenses were breached for a full breath before he was able to reassemble his body.

"Master!!"

Li Qingjue could no longer hold back. Ignoring the bombardment of the heavenly tribulation, he soared into the sky, took the Immortal Execution Sword, and unleashed a chaotic sword aura that tore through the sky. This attack, now bursting with overwhelming power, forced back the Demon Mist Supreme and the Fallen Immortal Supreme.

She rushed to Tan Lin's side, supporting his swaying spirit, tears welling up in her eyes:

"Master, let's stop fighting and leave, okay?"

Looking at Tan Lin's almost transparent primordial spirit, her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.

This is her master, the one who gave her warmth and protection when she was most helpless.

She was the one who taught her cultivation, imparted the great Dao to her, and protected her as she grew.

Now, for the sake of all the heavens and myriad realms, he has fought until his physical body was repeatedly shattered and his primordial spirit was almost completely destroyed.

"Walk?"

Tan Lin shook his head, his voice weak, yet still firm:

"We can't leave."

He looked at the three supreme beings, then at the depths of the universe, where several faint imperial auras were reviving.

"I've said it before, not just the enemy right in front of us..."

He spoke in a low voice, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes:

"You're oversimplifying the problem."

It's true that the other party's talent is astonishing, but this is only their first life on the path of cultivation, and they've only cultivated for a few hundred years. They have plenty of vigor, but lack maturity in their actions.

Our understanding of the universe and the various forbidden zones is still far too insufficient.

Judging from the current situation, this is the time when his mind is most unstable. The influence of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art on him should be enormous, especially when he is about to attain enlightenment through it. The inner demons triggered by the calamity are all-pervasive...

Swish!

Upon hearing this, Li Qingjue stood before him.

She followed Tan Lin's gaze, and although she couldn't see anything, she could sense that deep within the universe, several terrifying auras were firmly locked onto them.

At this moment, they're not holding back at all; they're just waiting to take action!

"them……"

Li Qingjue's expression changed slightly.

"They are waiting."

Tan Lin said softly:

"Let's fight Changsheng and the others to the death, let's wait until I'm exhausted, and then we'll have a chance to... reap the benefits."

"So you can't stop."

He looked at Li Qingjue, his eyes filled with solemnity:

"Your previous reluctance to intervene was essentially a visible sword hanging over the heads of those with ulterior motives, preventing them from making any rash moves unless they choose to truly withdraw from the world..."

"Cough! Cough... But unfortunately, you're already out of the game. That subtle, invisible 'balance' has been broken, and it seems it's already too late..."

Tan Lin's body had just been reconstructed when he began coughing up blood repeatedly. Between words, he gave a bitter smile:

"They've seen your strength and can no longer sit idly by, especially after your near-death experience; the situation is becoming increasingly unpredictable..."

Upon hearing this,

Li Qingjue remained silent.

She looked at Tan Lin's already weak and exhausted eyes, and then looked at the several soaring imperial auras deep in the universe.

The situation today may truly be a dead end.

During her tribulation, she was too distracted and impulsively wanted to intervene several times. In the end, she was indeed too worried and did not want to watch her master gradually decline and perish, thus taking her own life.

Looking back now, if she had focused wholeheartedly on breaking through to the Imperial Path from the beginning, even if she hadn't attained the throne, at least she would have reached that level, or even achieved enlightenment through an alternative path, and perhaps she would have had a great future.

But now...

"Master, I..."

Lost in thought, she opened her mouth slightly, feeling guilty, as if she wanted to say something, but found her throat blocked and unable to utter a word.

It turns out that her master never underestimated her strength after she stepped into the Imperial Realm; it was she herself who underestimated it…

Hey!

"Hand over the secrets you possess, then bind yourself and allow me to 'convert' you into the Immortal Tomb. You might still have a glimmer of hope. Such an outstanding person as you should die here. When the Immortal Path begins again after countless ages, I may allow you to become an immortal together..."

The Celestial Venerable of Immortality took a step forward, sword in hand, and closed in.

His words are always insightful and profound, and he still tries to win people over, but it's hard to know how much truth is in his words.

I fear that even if the path to immortality appears then, the real purpose will be to make them sacrifice themselves for the path to immortality, not to achieve immortality together...

Tan Lin remained silent. He slowly turned around and faced the three supreme beings once again.

Although his aura was weak, his eyes remained calm despite their weariness. In the eyes of these individuals and even the heroes of all the heavens and myriad realms, this demeanor was undoubtedly one of fearlessness in the face of death.

How tragic!

It's impossible not to be moved.

wow...

The Ascension Cauldron floated before him, its immortal light dimmed considerably, yet it still swirled. However, after several battles, new cracks were faintly appearing on this powerful artifact.

Fortunately, having just killed another Supreme Being, the cauldron was able to recover and become even more sturdy thanks to the blood sacrifice.

However, the essence of that supreme being was artificially collected by Tan Lin and refined into a crude blood pill, which was then used as a tonic to restore his condition as much as possible.

Li Qingjue was once again forcibly persuaded to undergo the tribulation, even though he probably wouldn't last much longer.

Having come this far, how could we possibly give up halfway?

If things truly become unmanageable, he is prepared to activate the [Transfer of All Causes] command to leave the battlefield, and then see if he can take one or two more Supremes with him by self-destructing with his remaining body...

"Hehe, why waste words with him, fellow Daoist? Suppress him, and everything will naturally fall into his hands!"

Seeing Tan Lin's defiant stance, the Fallen Immortal sneered.

He also wielded a powerful weapon and surrounded the man and woman from another direction, blocking their escape route.

Meanwhile, the Demon Mist Supreme beside him looked towards the Big Dipper and the Ancestral Star of the Overlord Body, and said in a deep voice:

"How long are you all going to wait and see? If you don't make your move now, then once it's over, if you want to come in and reap the rewards, don't blame us for turning against you and fighting us!"

With the death of the Supreme Being of Rebirth, the formation formed by the four of them naturally dissipated. Now, the remaining three exist as individual entities, no longer bound by any formation.

Of course, given his current state of indestructible golden body, this is completely unimportant.

The dust should settle now.

"kill!"

Tan Lin remained silent, watching as his blood and qi began to recover after refining the Blood Pill. The Celestial Venerable of Longevity snorted coldly and unleashed the Longevity Sword once more.

The Demon Mist Supreme and the Fallen Immortal Supreme, having not yet witnessed the fate of those beings lurking in the shadows, had no choice but to act simultaneously.

The great war has begun again.

But this time, Tan Lin was clearly powerless to resist.

The battle was one-sided; even describing Tan Lin's situation as merely being at a disadvantage would be an understatement.

His body was repeatedly smashed.

On several occasions, his primordial spirit was even "almost" entangled by the Immortal-Binding Rope, bringing everything to an end.
