From Covering the Sky, I Became a Transcendent

Chapter 94: Ancient Shadow
By the sacred lake, the crane let out a long cry and flapped its wings. A green light shone on its body, and the colorful and steaming surface of the lake suddenly became turbulent.

The sparkling and crystal clear lake water was rolling continuously, shining brightly. The crane made a series of magic seals, then took out a token and threw it into the lake.

hum!
A magnificent underground palace rises from the bottom of the lake, with colorful rays of light.

"Only one person can go in, boy. I hope you can get the inheritance of the great emperor!" The voice of the crane was a little weak. Obviously, it would take a lot of energy to open the underground palace. It was not so easy. After all, this was the inheritance of a great emperor.

Si Chen nodded and stepped into the underground palace.

This is a vast and majestic palace complex. As soon as Si Chen entered, he felt a heavy atmosphere.

Outside the ancient palace is a large medicinal field. The land is fertile and full of vitality, and it is full of peerless elixirs planted by the emperor of the human race himself, which are blooming with divine brilliance.

Unfortunately, Si Chen came in at the wrong time, and the years were too short. These spiritual medicines have not yet grown into ancient medicinal kings and are of little value.

When you enter the hall, you will see ancient murals, in which a tall man holding a battle axe is shown. This records the tragic life of the Emperor Luan Gu.

Other emperors were undefeated throughout their lives, but Emperor Luangu was defeated all the way and his heart of Taoism was shattered.

Among his enemies, the Seven Heroes of Chaos were the most powerful enemies of the young Emperor Luangu. It was they who forced him into despair and fled to the remote borderlands, where his spirit almost collapsed in the end.

His family, lover, and teachers all left him one by one, leaving him alone.

But he had amazing perseverance. He never lost heart despite numerous defeats. In the end, he made a stunning comeback, defeated his former rivals, and reached the pinnacle of the underworld.

The tragedy of the Emperor Luan Gu was so great that he was once suspected by later generations to be someone else's nickname in the rebirth of a ruthless man or the second life of the Emperor Void.

His battle record has always been unknown, and no one in the world knows why the Ancient Emperor Talisman was damaged.

Today, Si Chen saw that the last mural recorded that after the Great Emperor Luangu attained enlightenment, he entered the Immortal Mountain and fought against several supreme beings. Then, at the cost of breaking the Luangu Emperor's talisman, he killed one of the most sublime supreme beings and finally withdrew safely. This record was truly astonishing.

It is extremely difficult to enter the Immortal Mountain alone, escape unscathed, and achieve victory. The restricted area is filled with former emperors and kings. After reaching their highest level of sublimation, which one would be weak?
This is only his first life.

"The emperor is still too low-key." This was the voice of the crane. It also came down and said with a proud tone.

"It's a pity that the emperor has no offspring, otherwise he would be invincible in his life." Xianhe sighed.

The lover of Emperor Luangu died long before he became emperor, otherwise she would have left behind the Taoist tradition and the emperor's son.

Because no Taoist tradition was left behind, many things became vague after ten thousand years, and people did not have a very deep impression of Emperor Luan Gu. They only knew that he was once a person who had attained enlightenment.

"The emperor is buried here?" Si Chen asked curiously. He actually doubted whether Emperor Luangu was still alive.

Xianhe shook his head: "The emperor's body is not here. I don't know where it is, but he really passed away."

Si Chen continued to move forward. Behind the mural was a white light gate, exuding a holy aura.

"Go, the test of the emperor is behind the light gate." A green light flew out of the crane's body and flew into the gate. Suddenly, the light gate changed differently. The space twisted and a vortex appeared.

Si Chen entered the light gate without hesitation.

Behind the door is an endless prairie, extremely desolate, with the moon hanging high in the sky, just like the scenery outside.

There was a hazy light in the distance, exuding endless majesty. Its true appearance could not be seen clearly, and it was quietly waiting for him.

"The Great Emperor Luangu!"

Si Chen guessed Guangying's identity and came in front of him. He was a very handsome man with endless demonic energy. He just looked very tired and seemed to have no energy to do anything.

Is this the Great Emperor Luangu?

The man seemed to still have consciousness. He glanced at Si Chen and said, "You are very good." Then he began to adjust his realm, which was exactly the same as Si Chen's, both of them were at the first level of the Immortal Realm.

"Come!" The man looked very tired and just wanted to finish the battle quickly.

Suddenly, his figure disappeared from the spot without a trace.

Si Chen looked to the right side of his body, where the void split open and the man stepped out, striking him at lightning speed.

Si Chen dodged it easily, and then said: "Void Secret Art!"

This is the secret technique of Emperor Void. It is rumored in the world that Emperor Luangu inherited part of the inheritance of Emperor Void and Emperor Henren, and it is indeed true.

Although this secret technique can travel through the void, if you are on guard, you can still capture that kind of fluctuation.

The attack missed, but the man remained calm. The demonic energy on his body became stronger, and mysterious symbols flashed in his eyes, trying to track Si Chen's movements.
Then, he took action, and with his hands he drew a line with force. A huge cross crack appeared in the sky, and a large crack in the void extended.

Like a dream and an illusion, a cross star field appeared, like a string of stars intertwined and suspended in another void.

This is an ancient secret technique that has extraordinary power.

A huge sun rose behind Si Chen, and a phantom emerged. Looking towards the starry sky, two clusters of flames flew out with infinite divine light, and the stars were burning.

The Immortal Light of the Sun, a forbidden secret technique in the "Sun Sutra", is said to be able to destroy all existence.

There was chaotic energy lingering around Si Chen's body. With a flash of Kunpeng's wings, he rushed in front of the man and punched him with the true meaning of the moon and the sun.

"boom!"

The man was actually smashed to pieces. The young emperor was no match for Si Chen in one move.

This is a matter of course. Under the same realm, Emperor Luan Gu is indeed no match.

In the distance, the man's figure regrouped and he looked thoughtful, which was very strange.

"You can now obtain most of my inheritance." The man paused, "Do you want to continue the challenge?"

"Fight!" Si Chen replied.

The man's eyes revealed admiration, and then he moved his body, splitting into two phantoms and starting to form the demon fetus.

The cultivation of the three people was improving. They used some secret method to cut off their old selves and transform into new selves. By the time they came out of the demon fetus, they were already in the second level of the Immortal One, one small realm higher than Si Chen, and they exuded a different aura from before, which was more transcendent.

The man's fatigue was swept away, and he became energetic and ready to fight, as if the real Emperor Luan Gu had come back to life.

The void was distorted, time and space were disturbed, and they used the ancient sacred techniques.

Now Si Chen's expression also changed. He looked solemn and attacked with all his strength.

Countless visions appeared behind him. He held the Eternal Blue Halberd in his hand, emitting rays of divine light and fighting against the ancient phantom.

"boom!"

They moved their bodies vigorously, constantly changing their positions, their blood and energy rushed to the sky, and a terrifying aura filled the space. This strong fluctuation made people doubt whether they were still immortal cultivators.

This is not an easy duel. These three phantoms are all young emperors, and they are the ancient Chaos after condensing the demon fetus. Their combat power cannot be underestimated, and their cultivation is higher than his. Even Si Chen finds it a bit tricky.
