Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 4 Sea of ​​Suffering, Spring of Life

The process of opening the sea of ​​suffering went smoothly. After all, he had been taken away by the crane so many times, and the opportunities he had obtained were unimaginable to outsiders. In addition, as the young master of the Wang family, he had never lacked rare and precious herbs since childhood. All kinds of rare medicinal diets he consumed were quietly improving his physique and paving the way for his future.

Therefore, when he used the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture to open up the Sea of ​​Bitterness, everything went smoothly. A tiny sea of ​​bitterness, no bigger than a sesame seed, was opened up, as black as ink, exuding a chilling aura.

The aura gushing from it seemed to come from the deepest hell, devoid of any life force, containing only death.

Wang Teng had only read about the sea of ​​suffering in novels, but now that he saw the part of the sea of ​​suffering within his own body, he was truly shocked.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, his face still showing disbelief.

This is the sea of ​​suffering!
He clenched his fist tightly and waved it in mid-air, feeling his own strength increase.

By opening up the Sea of ​​Bitterness, one has already begun to distance oneself from mortals and venture into the realm of true transcendence. Although one cannot use various techniques in the short term, the improvement in one's physical strength is real.

Moreover, Wang Teng could also feel that his sea of ​​suffering was being slowly opened up. The accumulation and fortuitous encounters of his earlier years finally began to erupt after the sea of ​​suffering was opened up, propelling his realm to progress slowly.

The crane, which had been standing and dozing, raised its head, looked at Wang Teng who had successfully broken through, and slowly nodded. Then it stretched out one wing and pointed to the golden ancient chariot in the corner.

Wang Teng understood immediately.

He couldn't reach the corpses in the Golden Palace with his current level of cultivation, and the residual power on them was something a mere cultivator who had just opened the Bitter Sea Realm couldn't withstand.

However, the Golden Ancient Chariot is different. The Golden Ancient Chariot is an object, and its owner is dead, so it is an ownerless object. Moreover, the crane would not harm it.

Trusting the crane and knowing the original novel of Shrouding the Heavens, Wang Teng walked directly towards the golden ancient war chariot.

The golden ancient chariot is of unknown era. It is entirely golden in color and seems to be cast from some kind of divine metal. It bears the marks of a great battle, with craters carved by arrows, marks left by swords and axes, and even claw and fist prints. Someone once left marks on the golden ancient chariot with their own body!
These marks did not detract from the beauty of the golden chariot; on the contrary, they added to its antiquity and solemnity.

Wang Teng approached the golden ancient chariot and felt the pressure it exerted on him.

The crane let out a clear cry, and a gentle force fell on Wang Teng, greatly reducing the oppressive force of the golden ancient chariot.

Wang Teng stepped directly onto the golden ancient chariot and placed one hand on it.

The next moment, the golden ancient chariot shrank to the size of a palm and hovered in Wang Teng's hand.

Wang Teng understood.

Because his own spiritual level was insufficient, he could not allow the Golden Ancient Chariot to enter his sea of ​​suffering, so the Golden Ancient Chariot "followed" him in this way.

Of course, this so-called following of him may very well be due to his master, the Crane Master, secretly gifting him the Golden Ancient Chariot.

"Thank you for the treasure, Master Crane." Wang Teng held the golden ancient war chariot and bowed to the snow-white crane.

"This is the opportunity you deserve." The voice echoed in Wang Teng's mind.

The crane flapped its wings and spread its feathers. Wang Teng understood and climbed onto the crane's back with the golden ancient chariot.

The next moment, the crane took flight and left the golden palace.

Before the golden palace, the two guardian beasts remained in a stepping posture, but they never took the second step.

In the Ancient God Lake, the creatures swimming there kept their distance, not daring to approach the crane. The crane carried Wang Teng as if entering an empty lake, and from beginning to end, none of the creatures swimming in the Ancient God Lake dared to approach.

After they left the Ancient God Lake, the crane carried Wang Teng across the vast Northern Plains and back to the Wang family.

Several days have passed since the crane took Wang Teng away from the Wang family, and the Wang family has not panicked.

When they saw Wang Teng return riding a crane, they couldn't help but feel envious.

The young master of the Wang family has gained another opportunity, and he will surely become the strongest person on this continent in the future!
Upon learning of Wang Teng's return, Wang Chengkun, the head of the Wang family, immediately went to Wang Teng's palace to inquire what opportunities Wang Teng had obtained this time.

When he learned that Wang Teng had already opened up the Sea of ​​Bitterness under the guidance of the crane and obtained the Golden Ancient War Chariot, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.

"It absolutely surpasses even the most powerful weapons!" Wang Chengkun exclaimed excitedly.

The Wang family also possessed chariots and powerful weapons, but Wang Chengkun felt that none of them could compare to the golden ancient chariot before him.

"You must keep this item safe. Once you open your life spring, you can store the Golden Ancient War Chariot in your own sea of ​​consciousness to nurture it. It will surely become a great help to you in the future!" Wang Chengkun instructed Wang Teng.

Wang Chengkun wasn't jealous of Wang Teng's good fortune, after all, he was his own son. Moreover, he had been suppressing certain members of the Wang family to prevent others from coveting Wang Teng's opportunities. In fact, he had even taken action to eliminate some members of the Wang family at the beginning to deter others.

“Okay!” Wang Teng nodded.

"As for the family affairs you mentioned earlier, you can learn to handle them when you have time, but you must make cultivation your primary goal!" Wang Chengkun continued.

Wang Teng nodded.

Over the next few days, Wang Teng diligently cultivated in his palace, following the established procedures. The Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture was, after all, the legacy of a great emperor, far surpassing the original Wang family legacy at the Wheel Sea realm.

Therefore, Wang Teng directly cultivated the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture!
With the blessing of the Imperial Scripture, coupled with his years of consuming rare and precious herbs, his progress was rapid.

In just three days, the sea of ​​bitterness within his body had expanded to the size of a thumb, with even more death energy sinking into it.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, they would already be able to attempt to open up their life spring by now.

But Wang Teng thought that it should take a little more time to settle down.

At least so far, he has not experienced the hardships of spiritual practice.

Everything fell into place naturally; this was practically the perfect protagonist template, the treatment of a chosen one.

A month later, Wang Teng's misery had undergone a complete transformation!
When he looked inward again, his sea of ​​suffering had become very large, bigger than a watermelon.

It's incredible that the human body is so small, yet such a vast sea of ​​suffering can be created in the lower abdomen.

Wang Teng wondered what it would be like to stuff a watermelon into his stomach.

Then he laughed and said, "I'm already cultivating immortality, why would I care about this kind of thing?"
He instructed the gentle and beautiful maid to keep watch outside his bedchamber so that he could break through his current limitations and open his life spring.

Then, he began to work on breaking through to the Life Spring Realm!
He wanted to see just how difficult it was to break through the realm that Ye Fan had reached in the original novel, which took nearly a hundred chapters to complete!
