Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 402: Big Crack in the Void

"His origins lie in you."

In the Divine City of the Northern Territory, Ye Fan, the new generation of Yuantian Patriarch, cut out a little fellow who looked like a natural saint in the Ji family stone archway, which immediately caused a sensation.

Countless powerful people wanted to observe the little fat man who was born to be a saint.

Unfortunately, Ye Fan was not someone they could easily control. Except for the unlucky god Hun Tuo, who had obtained Ye Fan's permission to use his divine sense to investigate the little fat man's situation, no one else had seen the little fat man in the fairyland with their own eyes.

In response to Ye Fan's curiosity, Li Zhi just left this sentence and left the Holy City.

It’s not that Li Zhi didn’t want to say more, but when the words were about to come to his lips, he sensed a sense of danger. It seemed that revealing the true origins of the little fat man would trigger a taboo and bring him great consequences.

In the world of Shrouding the Sky, not everything can be spoken, and not everything can be peeped into at will.

If you don't have enough strength, knowing more will not do you any good.

The group of Tianji masters is the best example.

Although they are not strong enough, they can know many secrets that are not consistent with their strength through the method of heavenly calculation. In the end, once the secrets are leaked, heavenly punishment will come to them.

Almost no master of divination can die of natural causes.

Whether it is the divine fortune teller in the Beidou Central Region or the Taoist priest of the Tianji Sect in the Ziwei Ancient Star, all of them have suffered heavenly punishment for leaking heavenly secrets.

He is simply the typical example of someone who is both bad at playing and loves to have fun.

"On me? How could it be on me?"

Li Zhi's words did not help Ye Fan to resolve his doubts. The more he thought about it, the more unreliable it seemed. The immortal source that sealed the fat boy looked extremely ancient and could not possibly be related to him.

When the Great Sage Hun Tuo heard the grand sacrificial sound coming from the little fat man's immortal platform, he was so scared that he ran directly towards the Yaochi Lake like a frightened rabbit, and Ye Fan followed him.

What happened afterwards had nothing to do with Li Zhi.

Li Zhi, who left the Northern Divine City, did not return to the Ancient Forest, but came to the Fire Region of Jin State.

The reason why he went to the Ji family stone workshop and waited for Ye Fan to find the divine baby was that he wanted to find the best way to restore the weapon god from the divine baby.

In order to survive the inevitable catastrophe, he used the method of life-saving and sacrificed four gods that carried the Tao to pay for his life.

So many years have passed, and although he has refined the four instruments of the Tao into great sage-level magical instruments, he still has not cultivated any new holy weapons or gods.

He couldn't even train a new soldier soul to replace the original god. It seemed that the magic weapon was imprinted with a power that prevented the birth of gods, so no matter how many methods he tried, they were useless.

However, since obtaining the fragments of the Human Emperor Seal, by observing the homologous soldier souls nurtured within the fragments, Li Zhi had a vague idea of ​​a solution in his mind.

But the solution lacks the most critical step.

However, just now, through observing the divine baby inside and out, Li Zhi finally realized the last key missing part.

Then, Li Zhi took out four bodies that looked exactly like him. Each body exuded the powerful aura of a Saint King, and there was a faint fluctuation of the aura of the original spirit in the immortal platform.

But they seemed to have no souls, just living shells of flesh.

They are all powerful bodies created by Li Zhi using the cloning technology of the Eternal Star Domain. They are also his experimental materials for exploring the ultimate mysteries hidden in the human body.

Over the years, Li Zhi has cultivated hundreds of clones of his own body, but almost all of them have been consumed in the process of exploring the ultimate secret of the body.

The reason why he used his own physical clone for experiments was because studying other people's bodies could not be 100% successful in transferring them to his own body.

It was precisely because of the various studies on his own body that Li Zhi was able to withstand the burning of the immortal fire when he came to the Fire Domain to refine weapons last time, allowing his body to undergo a complete transformation.

The four bodies before us are special bodies specially cultivated to repair the four spirit instruments of the Tao.

In order to cultivate these four Saint King-level bodies, Li Zhi consumed almost one-third of his collection. The life source power consumed was almost equivalent to the sum of all the life sources of forty ordinary Saint Kings.

That is to say, there are too many saints from outside the domain who descended on the ancient star of Beidou, and a large number of saints died in battle every year, which allowed him to collect enough life energy.

On the ninth level of the Fire Domain, Li Zhi found the little Taoist fire man he had left here last time.

Then he used a secret method to melt the four bodies, which had already been engraved with the complete laws of weapons, into special energy bodies.

Those energy bodies quickly turned into four little men who resembled Li Zhi. Their aura was very similar to that of the little fat man, like normal life, but also a little different.

Afterwards, Li Zhi injected the four energy bodies into the four instruments of the Tao that were lacking weapons and gods.

Then use the power of fairy fire to perfectly blend them together.

When the gods of the four instruments of Tao were reborn, Li Zhi immediately felt the breath of a heavenly calamity.

It seems that after they return to normal, they will have to overcome the weapon calamity like the Taoist monument in the fairy platform.

Li Zhi rushed directly out of the area without any hesitation.

"boom!"

A terrifying thunder tribulation came in an instant, and its power was no weaker than the tribulation that an ordinary great saint would endure.

Moreover, with the arrival of the first heavenly thunder, the intensity of subsequent thunder tribulations seemed to increase exponentially.

Li Zhi understood the reason instantly. The four weapons underwent the tribulation together, which triggered the cumulative effect of the heavenly tribulation.

Afterwards, Li Zhi scattered the four instruments of Taoism into four different star fields.

The Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram was paid special attention by a terrifying Yin-Yang divine thunder catastrophe.

The Immortal Phoenix Seal experienced a catastrophe of divine thunder from the origin of the five elements.

The four golden sticks that were like pillars of heaven experienced an extremely powerful catastrophe of the Four Symbols Divine Thunder.

The Nine-Curved Dragon Staff even experienced a terrifying calamity from the divine thunder of all spirits.

Li Zhi divided his attention into four parts, allowing his divine consciousness and the four instruments of Tao to overcome the calamity together.

Although the thunder tribulation that each instrument of the Tao has to endure is comparable to the great tribulation of an ordinary great saint, it is not as good as the great tribulation that Li Zhi experienced in the past, which could be called the world-destroying great saint tribulation.

Even so, four great saint thunder tribulations suddenly appeared not far apart in the depths of the outer space, attracting the attention of many powerful people.

This led many people to mistakenly believe that four more Saint Kings had successfully broken through to the Great Saint realm and were undergoing the test of heavenly thunder there.

The sudden appearance of four great saints of unknown races will undoubtedly make the situation in Beidou even more chaotic, as there are four more enemies on the road to becoming an immortal.

Unlike the Great Sage and the Holy King, the Great Sage is already capable of sweeping across an entire region.

Every great saint possesses a deterrent power that transcends race.

This thunder disaster lasted for half a month, which was extremely shocking.

Only Li Zhi knew that this was not just a simple holy weapon calamity, but a thunder calamity that made up for the lack of their evolution from the king's divine weapon to the great holy weapon.

In other words, the casting materials of these instruments of Tao are strong enough to withstand such a terrifying baptism of thunder.

Whether it is the Xirang used to cast the Tai Chi diagram, the Five Elements Divine Gold used to cast the Immortal Phoenix Seal, the Zodiac Divine Gold used to cast the golden stick, or the dragon-patterned black gold used to cast the Nine-Curved Dragon Staff, they are all top-notch immortal materials in the world and can be used to cast ultimate weapons.

After experiencing the baptism of heavenly tribulation for half a month, the four instruments of Taoism finally caught up with the Taoist monument.

However, their vitality was also severely damaged, and Li Zhi needed to use his magic power to nurture them for a period of time before they could recover to their best condition.

When Li Zhi returned from outside the domain, he went straight back to the barren mountain near the ancient forbidden area.

As soon as he took the Taoist temple out from under the earth, Li Zhi caught a hint of the unique aura belonging to the Path to Immortality from the depths of the void. It seemed that it would not be long before the Path to Immortality would be connected with the heaven and earth of the ancient Beidou Star.

Li Zhi stood on the top of the mountain, looking into the ancient forbidden area, trying to see the reaction of the ruthless emperor. However, the ancient forbidden area was covered with thick fog at this time, and even the nine holy mountains outside the forbidden area were covered with a thick fairy fog, so it was impossible to see the changes inside.

Afterwards, he sat down on the barren mountain, waiting for the path to immortality to open.

During this period, many monks passed by the mountain, seemingly looking for clues about the path to immortality.

Rumor has it that the road to immortality that has been opened this time is related to the ancient forbidden area.

Therefore, there are usually many monks gathering information outside the ancient forbidden area.

However, after they saw Li Zhi on the mountain, they were very tactful and took a detour.

After all, Li Zhi's strength is obvious to all. He successfully took back the human race's most precious treasure, the Human Emperor Seal, from the hands of the Kunlun descendants. This is not something that any random cultivator can do.

After several days passed, there was a sudden and horrible explosion in the sky above the mountains.

"boom!"

The terrifying roar almost instantly killed all mortal life within a radius of 100 miles, and the entire forest began to shake.

Then, a blazing light appeared in the void, as if two peerless powerful men were fighting there, shattering the void and triggering a series of turmoil.

Many cultivators quickly retreated, not wanting to be affected by the battle between the most powerful ones.

However, after the loud noise, no cultivator appeared at the void crack. Instead, a large void crack several feet long was left in the void.

After seeing the huge crack in the void, many people were puzzled as to how a huge crack could suddenly appear in the sky.

Li Zhi could see at a glance that the path to immortality was behind the huge crack in the void.

However, it seemed that it was because they had taken away all the fairy spirit on this road last time, so after the void crack opened, no fairy spirit escaped.

There was no special aura of immortality, but more like the shattered void left behind by the battle between peerless strong men.

"Who was fighting here just now? Aren't you afraid of disturbing the Supreme Being in the Ancient Forbidden Zone?"

Many people looked at the huge crack in the void and did not regard it as a sign of the opening of the immortal road. Instead, they thought that someone was fighting a big battle here.

"boom!"

But not long after, the huge crack in the void did not heal itself, but instead showed signs of breaking again.

It suddenly changed from several meters long to dozens of meters long.

At the same time, a strong fairy spirit emanated from the huge crack in the void.

After the terrifying immortal energy escaped from the huge crack in the void, it instantly turned into the speed of light and scattered in all directions.

Li Zhi, who was well prepared, used his huge hand to collect the escaping fairy light.

After the immortal light was concentrated, it contained several strands of immortal spirit.

Then, Li Zhi's figure disappeared from the spot.

At this moment, everyone sensed a special fairy power from the huge crack in the void. It seemed that they were bathed in fairy light, and their lifespans seemed to be increasing rapidly.

"The road to becoming an immortal has begun!"

Someone shouted loudly, which instantly triggered a chain reaction.

Rays of divine light gathered from all directions towards the mountains and forests on the edge of the ancient forbidden area.

In less than an incense stick of time, the mountains and forests on the edge of the ancient forbidden area were filled with people.

Even the wild beasts that originally lived in the forest did not dare to make any roar.

There were human figures everywhere in the sky and on the ground, and countless saints came here at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye.

After observing for a while, they went back to report the situation to the forces behind them, and then more powerful men descended into the ancient forest.

Looking at the huge crack in the sky, everyone was talking about it.

"When the void exploded just now, there was fairy light scattered all over the sky. I don't know which great sage suddenly took action and took away all the fairy light." Some people who saw Li Zhi take action spoke up.

"It is possible that the Taoist priest Changshou took away the immortal light. Before that, he was practicing on the mountain right below the big rift in the void, and he sat there for several years. Now it seems that he may have known the specific location of the road to immortality in advance." Someone remembered Li Zhi's previous unusual behavior and spoke to everyone.

I don't know whether he really wants to get information from Li Zhi or wants to attract enemies for Li Zhi.

However, Li Zhi's actions are indeed suspicious.

First he moved the temple away, and then stayed on this inconspicuous mountain for several years. Now a huge rift in the fairyland appeared right above the barren mountain, which made people doubt his motives.

We are all smart people. We would not think that Li Zhi, who is already a great sage-level strongman, would settle here for no reason. There must be a deep meaning.

"Look for him. We must find the Taoist priest Changshou. He must know something." Someone shouted loudly.

Unfortunately, no one responded to his suggestion. Everyone was concentrating on looking at the huge crack in the void.

Afterwards, a saint used a weapon to try to cut open the crack, but the weapon shattered as soon as it came into contact with the power of the law in the crack.

Not long after, a huge noise appeared again at the huge crack in the void, and a burst of blazing light scattered from the huge crack in the void.

It was like a solar flare erupting, illuminating the entire sky, and a ball of fairy spirit burst out.

"Fairy spirit!"

After being illuminated by the light, everyone immediately felt relaxed, and then everyone scrambled for the fairy light like crazy.

All kinds of magical instruments were flying, all kinds of magical powers were shining, and the first big melee occurred on the scene.

In an instant, more than a dozen saints were covered in blood.

The holy blood was spilled on the mountains and forests below, smashing the originally prosperous ancient forest into pieces.

The horrific aftermath of the battle even shattered a large area of ​​forest.

Finally, the fairy light was snatched away by a great sage, and the melee temporarily stopped.

Although many saints were bleeding, almost no one chose to leave. After seeing the huge crack in the void become much bigger, everyone felt surprised.

At the same time, terrifying beams of light rose from the major life forbidden zones, and even a mysterious chaotic mist diffused from the forbidden zones.

The aura was so terrifying that everyone had to retreat temporarily.

Half a day later, the huge crack in the void exploded to dozens of feet long, and the expansion speed showed signs of slowing down.

People speculated that the real fairyland was about to be opened here.

"Is this day finally coming?"

On a mountain thousands of miles away, Li Zhi was shrouded in a layer of mysterious fairy mist. If one used spiritual sense to observe him, it was as if he did not exist.

The fairy mist blocked all the aura on his body, preventing him from being discovered by other strong people.

After observing there for a while, Li Zhi disappeared from the Southern Region.

Not long after, when Li Zhi appeared again, he was already in the Yao Chi Holy Land in the Northern Territory.
