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

“Since this humble nun dares to come, she has something to rely on. Fellow Daoist, you can come and go as you please, so why can’t this humble nun go?”

Could it be... that you, fellow Daoist, have gained some benefits inside and are afraid others will get a share?

The doubt and coldness in his words were no longer concealed.

Chi Xuan frowned slightly. As expected, the other party did not believe her and had become greedy and suspicious.

She said no more, but stepped forward, standing between the Peacock King Buddha and the Crimson Cloud River, her ethereal voice carrying a hint of coldness:

"I have said all I have to say. If you insist on going through, you must first ask the 'sword' in my hand."

"Oh?"

The Peacock King Buddha then "smiled":

"So you say you need to ask the sword in your hand first! This humble nun would like to see what you're capable of that dares to obstruct my path!"

Before she finished speaking, the vajra in her hand suddenly trembled!

boom!!

next moment,

A vast, powerful, and terrifying Buddhist force, as strong and masculine as a raging sea, erupted from the Vajra Pestle!

Golden light shot into the sky, transforming into a golden pillar that soared straight into the heavens!

Within the pillar of light, the illusory image of the dragon and elephant solidified, roaring towards the sky and radiating a terrifying pressure that could suppress all evil and shatter the universe!

Rumble... Rumble...

The aura of the ultimate path permeated the air, causing the space surrounding the entire Crimson Cloud River to tremble violently, the earth to crack, and the mountains to shake!

"Amitabha! Since you are so stubborn, fellow practitioner, then please don't blame this humble nun for her fierce anger!"

The Peacock King Buddha has a solemn and dignified appearance, but his eyes are sharp as knives. He holds a vajra and points it at Chi Xuan from afar!

In an instant,

A massive, mountain-like golden Buddhist staff, imbued with the power of dragons and elephants, tore through the void and crashed down upon Chi Xuan with earth-shattering force!

This attack already used a portion of the divine power of the Vajra Pestle. Although it was not a full recovery, it was enough to severely injure or even kill a Quasi-Emperor of the same level!

Despite the terrifying blow, Chi Xuan remained calm.

She simply raised her hand slightly, and a seven-colored divine light suddenly shone from her fingertip!

The divine light spread rapidly, condensing in front of her into a plant no more than three feet tall, yet its entire body was as clear as jade, with seven branches.

Each branch is a different color, creating a hazy, shimmering silhouette of a small tree!

This is the natal artifact she refined, named the Seven Treasures Tree!

In the past, because the collected single immortal gold was insufficient, it was forged by melting down seven supreme immortal golds, including Dao Tribulation Gold, Dragon Pattern Black Gold, and Immortal Tear Green Gold, and then nurtured and refined with its own primordial spirit.

As she has evolved to this point, although it is not an imperial weapon, its power far surpasses that of ordinary quasi-imperial weapons due to the special nature of its materials and the mystery of its refining techniques!

Furthermore, because she has recently stepped into the realm of imperial power, this item's divine abilities are approaching those of ordinary supreme artifacts.

It possesses the mysterious and wondrous power to break all laws and clean up anything!

Having summoned this item, Chi Xuanqing gave a shout, and the illusory image of the Seven Treasures Tree swayed gently!

Wow!

Seven dazzling, radiant rays of divine light, each imbued with a different fundamental law, stretched across the heavens and earth like seven rainbow ribbons.

It swiped out from the seven branches of the Seven Treasures Tree and instantly met the earth-shattering golden pestle shadow!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, but rather a terrifying and devastating impact that swept across the outside world.

Under the dumbfounded gazes of countless cultivators who were secretly observing this place and whose divine senses were drawn by the extreme aura,

The shadow of the Vajra Pestle, powerful enough to destroy an entire star field.

The moment they came into contact with the Seven Treasures Divine Light, they melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like ice and snow meeting boiling water!

Wherever the Seven Treasures Divine Light passed, the Buddha's light retreated, and dragons and elephants cried out in sorrow.

That terrifying golden pestle shadow was actually forcibly transformed into the purest rain of light, dissipating into the world!

"what?!"

The Peacock King Buddha's pupils shrank sharply, and an expression of disbelief and shock appeared on his face!

Her attack, powered by the Vajra Pestle, was so easily neutralized by the opponent?

What kind of magic weapon is that colorful little tree?

How could it possess such divine power?

"Fellow Daoist, it's not too late to retreat now."

Holding the illusory image of the Seven Treasures Tree, Chi Xuan's pale yellow robes fluttered, making her appear as beautiful as a fairy. Her tone was calm, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.

"Retreat? We only have a slight advantage..."

The Peacock King Buddha roared, his heart filled with both shock and anger.

Unconvinced, she poured all her Buddhist power into the Vajra Pestle, simultaneously manifesting a five-colored peacock image.

With its wings spread wide, it blotted out the sky and pounced on Chi Xuan!

She would engage in close combat, using Buddhist Vajra supernatural powers in conjunction with the Vajra pestle to suppress this woman!

"Stubborn and obstinate".

Chi Xuan shook her head slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.

She no longer held back, and with the Seven Treasures Tree in her hand radiating brilliant light, she took the initiative to meet the attack!

Rumble!

A terrifying battle at the level of a high-ranking quasi-emperor suddenly erupted high in the sky above the outer perimeter of the Crimson Cloud River Forbidden Area!

The Peacock King Buddha, wielding the supreme weapon, the Vajra, manifests in the form of the Peacock King, bathed in Buddha's light, with dragons and elephants accompanying him.

Each strike was earth-shattering, shattering the void and causing the laws of nature to wail.

She combined Buddhist supernatural powers with the innate treasure techniques of the Peacock Clan, creating boundless power. Her five-colored divine light swept down, enough to annihilate stars.

however,

Chi Xuan's performance was even more stunning!

In her hands, the Seven Treasures Tree seemed to come alive. Its seven branches swayed, and the seven treasures' divine light crisscrossed, sweeping away and breaking through everything!

The miraculous power is strikingly similar to the five-colored divine light of the Peacock King Buddha, seemingly acting as a nemesis to this supernatural ability.

As the branches swayed,

Five-colored divine light, whoosh!

The shadow of the vajra strikes out, whoosh!

The divine flames spewed out by the peacock's form, whoosh!

Even the sonic power she unleashed with the six-syllable mantra of Buddhism was swept away and vanished without a trace by that azure divine light!

Chi Xuan's movement techniques were even more mysterious and unpredictable, leaving behind afterimages in the void.

It seemed to exist in countless locations simultaneously, causing the Peacock King Buddha's attacks to repeatedly miss.

Every time she wielded the Seven Treasures Tree, the Five-Colored Divine Light could accurately find the Peacock King Buddha's weakness, forcing her to panic and have no choice but to use the Vajra Pestle to directly confront him.

boom!

Rumble... Rumble...

Above the sky, the seven-colored Buddha light and the five-colored divine light collided and annihilated each other, bursting out with a dazzling light that illuminated half of the Eastern Wilderness!

A terrifying shockwave spread out like ripples, shooting into the sky.

Fortunately, the battlefield was in the forbidden area of ​​Chixia River, where the field was pervasive and indestructible. The remaining fluctuations only affected the surrounding mountains and land, causing mountain peaks to collapse and parts of the earth to crack.

"My God! That's... a battle of ultimate techniques?!"

"It's the Vajra Pestle of the Western Desert! And that Buddha's light... it's the quasi-Emperor of Buddhism!"

Who fought against her?

That Seven Treasures Divine Light... how terrifying! It can actually 'suppress' the Vajra Pestle?

"It's...it's Patriarch Chi Xuan of the Tianxuan Holy Land! Her cultivation level...is terrifyingly high? She's not like an ordinary Quasi-Emperor..."

"What kind of magical treasure is that seven-colored sapling? I've never seen one before! How can it rival the Vajra Pestle?!"

"That Patriarch Tianxuan is too strong... If those Buddhist disciples didn't possess ultimate divine weapons, they probably wouldn't stand a chance against him..."

In the five regions of the Big Dipper, countless divine thoughts were alarmed and turned towards the direction of the Crimson Cloud River. When they saw the two sides fighting, they were all horrified!

The fact that the Peacock King Buddha wields such an extremely powerful weapon is already astonishing.

Chi Xuan's ability to suppress her opponent with a phantom of a seven-colored tree that had never appeared before was beyond everyone's imagination!

The great battle continued, and the Peacock King Buddha grew increasingly alarmed.

She discovered that even though she was holding the Vajra Pestle, she was completely suppressed by her opponent!

The Seven Treasures Divine Light was infinitely mysterious, seemingly capable of suppressing all laws under heaven.

All her attacks, whether Buddhist supernatural powers or her innate treasure techniques, were greatly reduced in power in the face of that divine light, and were even directly wiped out!

However, her Taoist techniques, movement skills, and application of the laws of the Great Dao were far superior to hers!

This is not just a difference in magical artifacts, but an absolute crushing of cultivation levels!

"This is impossible! Who...who are you? When did someone like you appear in the universe?"

The Peacock King Buddha was once again swept back thousands of miles by a crimson divine light, his blood churning, and he couldn't help but shout a stern question.

Chi Xuan stood in mid-air, with the illusory image of the Seven Treasures Tree floating in front of her, its seven-colored divine light flowing around her, making her look like a celestial maiden.

She did not answer, but simply raised her hand again. The Seven Treasures Tree trembled slightly, and the Seven Treasures Divine Light intertwined into a net, covering the Peacock King Buddha!

This time, the power of the laws contained within the divine light was even more terrifying, as if it would sweep away everything and seal away all things!

The Peacock King Buddha's expression changed drastically; she could sense that she couldn't withstand this attack!

She frantically activated the Demon-Subduing Pestle, fully reviving this supreme weapon for a final, desperate attempt!

However, at this very moment,

Chi Xuan seemed to be tired of the battle.

Her eyes narrowed, and an indescribable aura, surpassing even that of a quasi-emperor, erupted from her body!

This energy was not violent, but supreme and infinitely majestic, as if it were the master of the universe and the source of all paths!

Faced with this aura, even the illusory image of the Seven Treasures Tree in her hand became more solid, and its seven-colored divine light surged, dyeing the sky with seven colors!

The Peacock King Buddha's fully activated Vajra Pestle let out a mournful cry, and the Buddha's light dimmed!

"This...this is..."

The Peacock King Buddha felt the terrifying pressure that made her soul tremble.

Looking at the faint imperial aura surrounding Chi Xuan, which seemed to resonate with the universe,

An unbelievable, chilling thought flashed through her mind like lightning!

She screamed, her voice shrill and distorted with extreme shock and fear:

"The Imperial Realm?! You...you've actually stepped into the Imperial Realm?!"

Before she could finish speaking, the interwoven net of five-colored divine light descended, completely engulfing her and the Vajra Pestle!

boom!!!

The seven-colored light devoured everything, also silencing the Peacock King Buddha's final scream.

A terrifying energy storm raged, turning the sky into chaos.

After a long while, the light faded, and the void slowly repaired itself.

Above the sky, only Chi Xuan, dressed in pale yellow and holding the Seven Treasures Tree, remained, standing aloof from the world.

And that Peacock King Buddha from the ancient star Amitabha, along with that renowned Vajra pestle...
