Stealing the Secret from the Cover of Heaven

Chapter 404: Encounter with the Forbidden Zone Child Again

The starry sky is infinite, the universe is boundless, and the number of true ancient life stars is extremely rare.

Coldness and darkness are the eternal themes. Only by standing among the desolate sea of ​​stars in the universe can one experience the true meaning of the broken world.

After leaving the Beidou Ancient Star, Li Zhi used the Divine Light Platform to tear apart the void, opening up a space-time channel far away from the Beidou Ancient Star Region.

Then a group of three people appeared on a cold star.

"Master, where is this?" Jin Ming asked, looking at the stars that had almost no life energy in front of her. She thought Li Zhi would take them directly to Earth.

"This is a sea of ​​stars without any breath of life. You will survive your tribulation here." Li Zhi said.

"Father, are you still going back to Beidou?" Li Xianer seemed to see that Li Zhi did not want to leave Beidou directly.

"There are still some things that are unfinished in Beidou." Without personally witnessing the opening of the path to immortality and seeing the Supreme Lord enter the immortal path, Li Zhi always felt that this period of his life in Beidou would be flawed.

After the road to immortality is opened, Beidou will wither, and some supreme beings in the life forbidden zone will fall into a deep sleep immediately. By then, they will dominate the world of Beidou again, and any cultivator who has the potential to pose a threat to them will be in danger of being wiped out.

Although they may not take action personally, they can send their experts to take action.

Practicing under the nose of the Supreme Being in the Forbidden Zone is not a good choice for a cultivator of Li Zhi's level.

Therefore, the best strategy for the next practice is to avoid Beidou.

Twenty years of enlightenment, and with the help of the supreme ancient blood of the four Kunlun descendants, namely Huashe, Zhulong, Qiongqi and Kuiniu, Li Zhi's Taoism has been elevated to a higher level.

His cultivation level broke through from the early stage of the fourth level of Great Sage to the early stage of the fifth level of Great Sage.

At the same time, Li Zhi had a hunch that after his cultivation broke through to the sixth level of the Great Sage, ordinary supreme ancient blood would not be of much use to him.

At that time, he would need the supreme ancient blood from the real ancient emperor's bloodline to assist him in his practice of the great way, and the difficulty of practice would increase exponentially.

There will no longer be a cultivation speed of improving one small realm every twenty years.

Li Zhi is no joke when it comes to polishing each small realm. He will only choose to break through when his cultivation has been consolidated to the extreme.

The degree to which one's foundation of Tao is honed is rare in the world.

After instructing Li Xian'er and Jin Ming, Li Zhi began to sit in the starry sky to transcend the tribulation.

The Great Dao Pillar of Heaven reappeared, and without the suppression of the Ancient Life Star Heaven and Earth, the size of his Dharma image increased countless times.

After the Snake Dharma Image appeared, its huge body almost filled the entire starry sky. The rocky star with a diameter of 8,000 kilometers where they landed became a marble in front of the Snake Dharma Image.

The snake form changed from big to small, and finally condensed to a size of three meters before it turned back into Li Zhida's original appearance.

Then, the images of Zhulong, Qiongqi and Kuiniu appeared one after another, and each one was larger than the last.

When a strong man at the level of the Great Emperor is achieving enlightenment, his Dharma image stands tall and upright, and he may even appear to be stepping on the underworld and with the nine heavens above his head. This is not an exaggeration.

Li Zhi was merely a great sage, but his ability to display magical powers in the starry sky was already incredibly great.

No wonder ordinary stars are vulnerable in the eyes of the Great Sage.

As the Kuiniu Dharma image disappeared, Li Zhi's thunder tribulation came. After a heavenly tribulation that lasted for two hours disappeared, Li Zhi officially became a cultivator of the fifth level of the Great Sage.

However, he barely broke through to the fifth level of Great Sage.

Before this, if he failed to complete the four "Dao Transformations", he would attract the thunder tribulation that would break through the realm.

Now, he has completed four "Changes of Dao" but has barely broken through.

The amount of cultivation required to be accumulated during the middle and early stages of the Great Sage's practice seemed to have exceeded his expectations.

Perhaps next time, when he completes the four "Changes of Dao" of gods and demons, it will not be enough to immediately break through to the fifth level of the Great Sage realm.

But thinking about it later, this makes sense. The later you practice, the more Tao you will accumulate in each realm.

After Li Zhi completed the breakthrough, it was Jin Ming's turn to overcome the tribulation.

After twenty years of baptism by immortal energy, Jin Ming's bloodline power has surged again, with signs of breaking through 80%.

Unfortunately, this is no longer the ancient immortal era.

The origin of heaven and earth is insufficient, the matter for longevity is scarce, and there is no thunder liquid in the thunder tribulation.

It is impossible for her bloodline to truly transform into pure blood of the Sky-Horned Ant.

They can only be similar to the various types of dragons in the universe. Their bloodline can be infinitely close to that of a real dragon, but they can never reach the bloodline level of the descendants of a real dragon.

After surviving the thunder tribulation, Jin Ming suddenly became a cultivator at the second level of the Saint King realm.

His talent also increased to the point where he was almost able to break through an ancient trial path of a weaker race.

Of course, compared to the top dozens of races in the universe, her talent at this moment is still a little lacking.

Li Zhi believed that if she continued to temper her blood along the current path, after breaking through to the Great Sage realm, she would have the opportunity to temper her blood to more than 90%.

By then, she will become a top-notch genius who is no weaker than the ordinary children of ancient emperors.

The talents of the ancient princes are also divided into levels.

The most gifted ancient imperial bloodline, similar to the Immortal Emperor's descendant, the Emperor's Son, or the Western Queen Mother's descendant, the Wu Shi Emperor.

The next are the Holy Prince, the Taoist Master of Divine Silkworm and other princes left behind by the emperors of races who are born with extremely powerful bloodlines.

Next are the best among the ancient princes such as Golden Goddess, Fire Lin'er, and Dragon Girl.

After Jin Ming successfully survived the thunder tribulation, it was Li Xianer's turn to survive the tribulation.

Unlike Li Zhi and Jin Ming, Li Xianer was going through the Saint King Tribulation.

Because of the different paths of cultivation, Li Xianer's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds in the past twenty years. He directly completed the cultivation of the saint level and reached the level of the saint king.

This speed of improvement in cultivation is comparable to that of the gods in the past.

Back then, Du Mu of the God Clan raised his cultivation to the peak of the Great Sage in just a hundred years. The speed at which his cultivation improved was astonishing.

Li Xian'er stayed at the Saint level for less than thirty years before breaking through to the Saint King level. Without much combat experience, this speed of improvement in cultivation was terrifying.

However, because of the different paths of cultivation, Li Xianer does not have to worry about an unstable foundation.

Every reincarnation can cause a qualitative transformation in the origin of her life. When the reincarnations of her life origin accumulate to the limit allowed by heaven and earth, that is when she begins to realize her talent.

When creating the great method of reincarnation in the human world, Li Xianer borrowed some of the profound meanings of the scriptures of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art.

Therefore, Li Xianer's breakthrough against the Saint King's thunder tribulation was not powerful, and could even be described as mediocre.

After surviving the thunder tribulation, Li Xianer became a cultivator of the first level of the Holy King realm, but she did not immediately undergo reincarnation and self-destruction.

The world was in turmoil, and she needed her current cultivation to protect herself. After overcoming the calamity, the three of them returned to the Beidou Ancient Star.

As soon as they returned to Beidou, they heard the good news that Ye Fan was going to get engaged to Ji Ziyue in the Ji family.

The Ji family sent out many invitations, inviting many people to attend the engagement ceremony, and many people showed up uninvited to join in the fun.

After hearing the news, Li Xian'er was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise: "Uncle Ye is getting engaged?"

"Your Uncle Ye is almost 250 years old and he is just getting engaged now. Why are you surprised?" Li Zhi said to Li Xianer.

"If Uncle Ye had been able to marry Aunt Xu and have a child, perhaps Grandpa Ye and his wife wouldn't have worried too much, leading to their premature death." Li Xian'er said with some regret.

Then, a trace of longing flashed in Li Xian'er's eyes, and she said, "I wonder how my mother and brother are doing now. Uncle Ye took away the Immortal Cauldron from the Kunlun Immortal Land, so that people can practice outside the Kunlun Immortal Formation."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi secretly calculated. The divine clues showed that Zhou Mei had passed away over a hundred years ago, but his son was still alive. It was unknown whether he had discovered the cultivation resources left by Zhou Mei in his hometown and embarked on the path of cultivation, or whether he had joined a major sect and embarked on the path of cultivation.

Li Zhi sighed secretly at this result.

The road of life is full of choices and variables, and there is never a static life.

"Master, where is your master's wife? Why have I never seen her? Should I also call Sister Xian'er's brother brother?" Jin Ming asked with some confusion after hearing the conversation between father and daughter.

"Ming'er, your master's wife is no longer with us, just like your mother. As for your sister Xian'er's brother, he has nothing to do with you, so you don't need to consider him." Li Zhi shook his head and said.

Li Xian'er was neither surprised nor sad to hear the news of Zhou Mei's death from Li Zhi. When she left Earth, Zhou Mei had already entered her old age. Even if she was healthy and could live to be over a hundred years old, she would have died long ago.

Now Li Xianer has been away from the earth for nearly two hundred years. How could a mortal live to be two hundred years old?

Time is indeed the best knife to cut off worldly ties.

Silently, family ties were worn away, love was severed, gratitude was shattered, leaving only vicissitudes of life.

When they arrived at the bank of Ji River, they immediately felt a festive atmosphere.

Everyone in the Ji family was filled with joy. It seemed that they were very satisfied with Ye Fan as their son-in-law.

Not only Ji Ziyue's parents, but almost everyone in the Ji family is optimistic about this marriage and believes that Ye Fan is a good match for Ji Ziyue.

Ye Fan’s cultivation speed is astonishing, and since his debut, he has almost never been defeated by his peers. If he continues to develop in this way, the day when he will achieve perfection in his holy body is just around the corner.

Everyone knows how powerful the Great Saint Body is. It is an existence that can challenge the Great Emperor.

By then, Ye Fan will be able to directly confront the ancient supreme being in the life forbidden zone. Everyone in the Ji family will be dissatisfied with such a son-in-law.

The Great Saint Body is a supreme existence that "one person achieves it, and the world is at peace". Moreover, the Great Saint Body can live for at least 10,000 years. In this chaotic world, after the Great Saint Body is achieved, it is enough to protect the Ji family for 10,000 years of peace.

Before entering the Ji family, Li Zhi and his friends saw one important figure after another coming to the Ji family. The Ji family arranged special monks to welcome guests from all directions at the door.

Even the Buddha from Mount Sumeru presented gifts. It has to be said that there are quite a few forces that used this to resolve conflicts with Ye Fan.

As for the forces that were on good terms with Ye Fan, most of the leaders came in person to congratulate him.

Li Zhi saw Xia Yiming, the emperor of Great Xia, Jiang Yifei, the saint of Jiang family, and Wang Yao, the saint queen of Yao Chi who had taken over the position of Queen Mother of Yao Chi, and other people who were on good terms with Ye Fan appearing in front of the gate of Ji family.

"Dad, let's go too." Li Xianer took out the gifts she had prepared and urged.

But Li Zhi suddenly turned his head and looked towards the northern sky, then said to Li Xian'er and Jin Ming: "You two go in first, Dad will go there to meet someone first."

Li Xian'er and Jin Ming had long wanted to run over to join in the fun, and did not notice the change in Li Zhi's eyes, and so they went straight to Ji's house.

When Li Xian'er and Jin Ming entered the Ji family, Li Zhi appeared in a vast wilderness 80,000 miles away from the Ji family.

Not long after, two powerful auras and several children appeared in Li Zhi's sight.

"Sure enough, another prince of the emperor has appeared in the life restricted area." Li Zhi was secretly happy when he saw the group of people flying in the sky.

In Li Zhi's eyes, this was not a forbidden area to be feared, but the shining bloodline of the emperor.

In the outside world, the number of emperors' sons with imperial blood is limited, and most of them are erratic in their whereabouts. However, there are quite a few descendants of ancient emperors in the major life forbidden areas.

Even if their fathers have passed away, the ancient princes may still exist.

Just like An Pu, his father had been killed by the Void Emperor, but this did not affect the fact that the blood of the ancient emperor flowed in his body.

Collecting the supreme ancient blood from the ancient emperors' descendants in these forbidden areas is obviously much easier than searching for those lone ancient emperors' descendants all over the universe.

"Fellow Daoist, please stay." Seeing those people flying over his head, Li Zhi hurriedly shouted.

"Who's there?" A terrifying aura burst out from the man wearing the Dark Iron Divine Robe beside An Pu, and pressed directly towards Li Zhi.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Master, I am here to greet you." Li Zhi just gently waved the whisk in his hand, and the terrifying aura of the man in the Dark Iron Divine Clothes disappeared into nothingness.

"It's you!" An Pu, whose face was still pale, lost his composure for a moment after seeing Li Zhi.

"Fellow Daoist An Pu, nice to meet you again. We are really destined to meet." Li Zhi appeared in front of them and greeted them with a smile.

"Master Changshou, do you still want to block our way today?" An Pu was defeated miserably by Li Zhi, and his tone was no longer as confident as before.

"I wonder where you two fellow Taoists are going. I plan to attend the engagement banquet of the Holy Body. If you two fellow Taoists are also going to the Ji family to attend the banquet, why not come with me?" Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Are you the Taoist of Longevity?" The man in the dark iron battle suit stood up directly, and at the same time, an astonishing fighting spirit burst out from his body, as if he had heard of Li Zhi's name a long time ago and wanted to fight him.

"What's your name, friend?" Li Zhi asked.

"Shen Ming." Shen Ming is strong and imposing, wearing armor, like a god of war walking out of an ancient battlefield. From his outward appearance, he has more warrior demeanor than An Pu.

"Shen Ming? I wonder if you have a good friend named Sanzang?" Li Zhi asked curiously, as if he didn't sense the amazing fighting spirit emanating from Shen Ming.

"Changshou Taoist, what do you intend to do?" An Pu felt the faint fairy spirit emanating from Li Zhi and was shocked. It had only been twenty years since they last met, but Li Zhi seemed to be more than twice as strong as he was back then. His aura was even closer to the fairy spirit, and the mist on his body seemed to be even thicker.

"We met by chance, fellow Daoist, you are not afraid of me, are you? Don't worry, I have never killed in my life. This fellow Daoist Shenming looks strong and a natural warrior. I am just itching to show my skills and want to compete with him. I have no other purpose." Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Master Changshou, you are indeed as arrogant as the rumors say. Since you want to compete, I will let you see the true power of the forbidden area inheritance." Ever since they learned that An Pu was defeated by Li Zhi openly, all the descendants of the ancient emperors in the forbidden area wanted to fight with Li Zhi.

"Brother Shenming, business is more important." At this moment, An Pu on the side spoke up, as if he didn't want Shenming to fight with Li Zhi now.

Although Shen Ming's father has not yet passed away, it remains to be seen whether he can survive this journey to become an immortal.

Every time the road to immortality is opened, almost half of the supreme masters of the forbidden area who have fought on the road to immortality will pass away afterwards.

Except for a few supreme beings who can appear multiple times to fight for the road to immortality, most of the supreme beings in the forbidden area only have one chance to fight for the road to immortality.

This time they went to the Ji family with a mission to test the Ji family's strength.

It would be best to find out whether the Void Emperor has left any backup plan to deal with the Immortal Mountain.

An Pu knew that Li Zhi was a highly skilled Taoist and was not an easy person to deal with, so he didn't want to create any more trouble.
