Covering the sky: Starting with the holy body, the immortal Taoist comes to attack

Chapter 77 The Emperor
After the Void lived its second life.

Gu Xuan is also five or six thousand years old. He is in his prime and his energy and blood are at their peak.

Over the years, he and Xukong often discussed scriptures and doctrines, and inspired each other.

As soon as the two of them made some gains, they went to the Tianzun battlefield to discuss and verify them.

In fact.

This can be said to be a pleasure for both of them, because this kind of battle between equally matched opponents is the most fascinating and also helps people improve.

Unknowingly, both of them had improved their realm and combat power a lot.

At least, if they were asked to fight against the two supreme beings of Immortal Mountain or Samsara Sea again, they would not be so exhausted and suffer such serious injuries.

The world has long been accustomed to the unusual movements in the Tianzun battlefield and is no longer as surprised as it was at the beginning.

But Gu Xuan's actions did not stop there.

Over the years, he has been looking for opportunities that can help him move to the next level.

As one of the two supreme beings in the world and familiar with the plot of The Great Ruler, he knew that he still had a lot to do.

For thousands of years, he deliberately exchanged and collected various great emperor scriptures as a reference for further cultivation.

Such as the Western Emperor Sutra, the Hengyu Sutra, the Taiyang Sutra and the Taiyin Sutra, etc.

Now that he has reached this stage, it can be said that his realm is not much lower than that of the owners of these scriptures.

Although he has not become an emperor, his combat power is not much worse than these people.

Stones from other mountains can attack jade.

These skills are also a useful reference and supplement to his great path.

Also.

After being recruited at all costs, he finally collected all the nine secrets.

Then, after his deduction with the void, he finally combined the nine secrets into one, evolving an ultimate secret technique that shocked the immortals and made the gods weep.

It is said in ancient times that if the nine secrets are combined into one, one can be invincible in the world.

From Gu Xuan's perspective, although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it does make some sense.

The combination of the nine secrets is definitely much more than the general emperor-level forbidden secret techniques.

But it actually depends on the strength of the user himself.

Perhaps only when one reaches the level of a Red Dust Immortal can the true horror of this secret technique be fully revealed.

these years.

The major life forbidden areas remained silent, guarding their own seclusion areas dutifully.

With Gu Xuan and Xukong guarding the area, no restricted area would want to seek trouble.

……

Time flies.

Ten thousand years have passed.

Gu Xuan is already fifteen thousand years old in his second life.

According to common sense, even for most ancient emperors and great kings, it is time for them to sit in meditation and pass away after reaching this age.

What's more, among the ancient emperor-level masters, only a very limited number could live to be 15,000 years old.

however.

Gu Xuan still didn't look old at all, but his black hair was no longer like a waterfall, and he looked like a middle-aged man with gray hair.

His energy and blood are still very strong, and it can be said that he is still in his prime.

This amazed the world.

Could it be that the lifespan of the supreme being who has lived a second life by himself is so terrible?

But Gu Xuan himself knew that all this was related to the essence of immortality obtained from the strange world.

Generally speaking, the universe has been relatively quiet in recent years.

Even the underworld, which used to take advantage of the chaos to attack, was nowhere to be seen.

This restricted area likes to secretly collect some rare physical qualities.

For this reason, he harassed the Sun God Cult, the Moon God Cult, and several other sects with divine king bodies.

However, under the protection of the two supreme beings of the time.

The underworld is no longer as active as it used to be, and it can even be said to be hidden.

but.

Everyone knows that all this is only temporary.

Because since ancient times, no matter which emperor or king, no matter how powerful he was, he could only rule the world for more than 20,000 years.

The only thing that can survive forever in this world is the forbidden zone of life.

There are many such examples in ancient history.

For example, Lingbao Tianzun once quelled the largest corpse disaster in the universe during his reign.

Its Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation was even said to have killed some immortals. Its combat power was truly terrifying to a certain extreme.

During his time in power, the underworld was almost extinct, just like it is today.

But when he passed away, everything returned to the way it was before.

……

Perhaps, everything has a yin and yang side.

Over the past ten thousand years, the universe has indeed become much quieter, but the great way of heaven and earth also seems to have become much quieter because of Gu Xuan and the void.

As a result, the vital energy in various parts of the universe has weakened significantly, and the major life star fields are not suitable for practicing Taoism.

however.

However, there is such a genius of the human race who goes against the current and, in the absence of all other ways, fights to the point where he is just one step away from achieving enlightenment.

He even made a bold statement that he would challenge the two supreme beings of the time.

Gu Xuan naturally noticed this young man named Xia early on.

The Taihuang who was originally following closely behind the Void!
I have to say that this person's talent is indeed very high, and his dragon energy attack power is unparalleled.

If he had not been born in this era, he would definitely be able to achieve enlightenment and become an emperor.

In Gu Xuan’s temple.

Two figures sat cross-legged facing each other, with an ancient tea of enlightenment brewed from the deep spring of life in the middle.

"It's a pity..."

Xukong sighed softly. He seemed to see his younger self in that human genius.

Obviously, he had also observed this person, and it is not ruled out that he had had secret contact with him.

really.

Another hundred years passed.

"Junior Xia Yu, begging to see Senior Dacheng Saint Body."

Outside the mountain gate of Qingyun Holy Land, a young man with extraordinary heroic appearance stood proudly.

He had obviously reached a very high realm and was not far from becoming an emperor.

Just standing there, there is a vague sense of a dragon sword soaring into the sky!

In a trance, the whole world was shrouded in extremely sharp sword intent, and all the laws were no longer apparent.

The world was shocked!

This young man named Xia Yu has defeated all the talented people in the world in recent years, and even the older generation of quasi-emperors are no match for him.

Moreover, almost all his opponents are not a match for his Dragon Sword Intent that dominates the world!
Is such a terrifying monk going to challenge the Great Saint Body now?
next moment.

A mysterious wave was transmitted, "inviting" Xia Yu into Gu Xuan's Taoist temple.

The world didn’t know and thought that he had entered the Qingyun Holy Land on his own.

But only Xia Yu himself knew the truth. At this moment, his heart was like a storm!
I originally thought that I was just one step away from achieving enlightenment.

Although Senior Dacheng Shengti lived out a second life, he, like himself, had not yet achieved enlightenment and become an emperor.

In theory, they are both in the same realm.

According to common sense, even if there is a difference in combat power, the difference is not big.

however.

I was inexplicably "invited" into someone else's dojo, and I had no power to resist.

This gap may have exceeded his imagination!

Inside Gu Xuan’s dojo.

"Junior Xia Yu, I pay my respects to Senior Saint Body."

The young man named Xia Yu stood firm and bowed to Gu Xuan who was sitting cross-legged on a cushion in front of him.

At this moment, he felt as if he was facing an unfathomable ancient emperor!

What is the final step to enlightenment?
What does it mean to challenge the Great Saint Body first and then challenge the Void Emperor?

Xia Yu felt that his previous thoughts were very naive.

Few people in the world reach this stage, and they think that since they are all close to enlightenment, the gap between them should be very small. However, when Xia Yu reaches such a level of cultivation, he naturally understands that the gap between them is still as huge as the difference between heaven and earth.

of course.

It's not that he's not strong enough.

If he were facing an ordinary great saint body, or other alternative ways of achieving enlightenment, Xia Yu would definitely not be at a disadvantage.

But Gu Xuan is special.

Having lived through a second life, his combat power has already become extraordinary.

Moreover, over the years, he had deliberately collected the Nine Secrets, verified them with the scriptures of other ancient emperors, and often discussed them with the Void.

His realm and combat power have long surpassed those of ordinary emperor-level masters.

Even in daily competitions, he was already able to subtly suppress the void.

The fluctuation that just "invited" Xia Yu in was the embodiment of his in-depth study of the Great Dao of the Void.

"You're a good young man, but it's a shame you were born in this life. However, you have three choices."

"First, in the near future, I may be able to break through the Ten Thousand Daos. Then you can come and become an emperor together."

"Second, you should establish your own throne, and when the next era without an emperor comes, you will naturally ascend to the pinnacle."

"Third, the path to becoming an immortal will open in a hundred thousand years. It will be a golden age, with heroes emerging. You can go and compete. The risk is great, but you may have a chance to become an immortal."

Of course, regarding the third point, what Gu Xuan did not say explicitly is that when Xia Yu stands on Ye Fan's side, the probability of him becoming an immortal will naturally increase greatly.

"Of course, you can also give it a try and rely on yourself to break through in this era. Neither I nor the Void will stop you."

Gu Xuan's voice was clear, and his face was surrounded by chaotic energy, like a god who was the highest and farthest away.

This was not intentional on his part, but a natural release of his supreme energy.

He is indeed worthy of being the Saint Body Senior who has lived a second life!

In the outside world, Xia Yu has become an existence that is unattainable to the world.

However, at this moment, facing Gu Xuan, he still had a feeling of looking up at a peak, and he couldn't see the top of the mountain at a glance!

He was silent for a moment, and finally gave his answer.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I still want to give it a try in this life."

Xia Yu was a prominent figure with an imposing bearing, and his words and actions reflected this.

"Young people are really energetic. Just go and give it a try. I will save you then." Gu Xuan smiled slightly.

Xia Yu thanked him again.

He paused, took a deep breath, and finally made the request.

"The junior also wants to see the avenue of the senior."

He stood tall, trying his best to straighten his body in front of Gu Xuan, and the indomitable sword intent began to radiate faintly.

This is the main purpose of his visit!
"Okay, make your move."

Gu Xuanyan answered concisely.

Faced with such a request, he had no reason to refuse.

hum!
A dragon sword emerged from Xia Yu's body and hovered above his head.

This is his natal weapon, which is refined with his blood and all his fighting spirit.

The whole sword is like a real dragon, extremely sharp and full of murderous aura, giving people the illusion of cutting through the void!
And Gu Xuan also respects his opponents
He stood up and released the energy from his body.

A Chaos Master appeared above his head, and the aura of the Supreme Being permeated the heavens.

next moment.

Xia Yu roared angrily, his whole body filled with fighting spirit. He became one with the dragon sword in his hand and swung the sword forward with all his strength.

This strike reached the peak of his life!

Gu Xuan threw a punch calmly.

The punch seemed very slow, yet extremely fast, as if it exceeded the limitations of time and space.

Boo!
That ordinary fist hit the blade of Xia Yulong's sword.

No surprises.

The sword broke, and all the sword intent shattered!

Surprisingly, Xia Yu did not fly backwards, and did not even stumble.

However, he knew that this must be because Senior Shengti was holding back.

“This road is very pure and very good.”

Gu Xuan gave encouragement, not wanting to put too much pressure on the other party.

Xia Yu picked up the broken sword and felt the invincible fist power that suppressed all the forces on it.

His eyes were bright, as if he had understood something. He then bowed respectfully to Gu Xuan and said goodbye.

In the following hundreds of years.

The young man with the sword disappeared without a trace, and his heroic figure who defeated all the heroes in the world was no longer seen.

however.

For this kind of person, a period of dormancy is obviously just for the purpose of pursuing higher and farther goals.

really.

On this day, with a rumbling sound, an extremely pure sword intent rushed straight into the sky!

That kind of imperial dragon energy has the faint aura of a person who has attained enlightenment, and its attacking power is unparalleled!
Everyone believes that this kind of attack power can compete with the Dou secret among the Nine Secrets!
Donghuang Ji’s family.

"Junior seeks to fight the Void Emperor!"

A clear voice sounded.

Sure enough, it came, and people sighed.

The peerless genius named Xia Yu, after paying homage to the Great Saint Body, practiced hard for hundreds of years.

This time, he chose to directly challenge the emperor of the time.

"Let's go, let's fight on the Mythology Battlefield."

The Void also gave this challenger great respect, because coming to the Mythological Battlefield was itself a recognition of him.

In that battle, the entire mythological battlefield was filled with sword lights spanning millions of miles, and the extremely sharp sword intent seemed to pierce the sky!

The laws of the Great Dao of the Void also permeate it, mixed with the unparalleled power of the Void Emperor's Fist.

of course.

There was no suspense about the outcome of the war.

The young man named Xia Yu was ultimately no match for Xu Kong, who was at the peak of his second life.

But he still caused a lot of trouble to the Void.

His sharp sword intent even broke through the layers of void avenues, approaching the void and even trying to injure him, but of course he was still one step behind in the end.

For a monk who has not yet attained enlightenment, such a record is already amazing!

Facts have proved that Xia Yu indeed has the ability to attain enlightenment.

Therefore after the war.

In that mythical battlefield, an extremely terrifying thunderstorm condensed immediately.

Xia Yu was actually threatening to challenge the remaining power of the Void Emperor and force himself to become an emperor?!
The catastrophe shook the world, and thunder dragons were as long as several star fields. There were even some that looked like immortals coming down to kill.

Xia Yu fought hard and rushed forward. Even if he was broken into pieces countless times, he would regroup and break the suppression.

This terrifying thunder tribulation lasted for three days.

And Xia Yu also managed to hold on for three days.

But in the end it wasn't enough.

Although he has the potential to achieve enlightenment, he does not have the incredible fighting power as the Void Emperor is already in power.

Under a ray of devastating light, Xia Yu's body exploded again.

He finally realized his limit and stopped trying to break through, otherwise he would really die.

Finally, when he was dying, Gu Xuan stretched out his big hand and saved him.

Xia Yu's origin was seriously damaged and it would be difficult for him to recover in the foreseeable future.

Gu Xuan used his great magical power to stabilize his injuries, and refined the divine source to seal it up.

As for the original injury, it will slowly heal over time.

Xia Yu was like a stunning firework, shining in the world for more than a thousand years.

In the era when Gu Xuan and Xu Kong were the two supreme rulers, he was already considered an extremely extraordinary genius.

But in the end, he was unable to break through the suppression of all forces, achieve enlightenment and become an emperor, and finally disappeared from the world.

However, there was no news that he failed to overcome the tribulation and passed away completely.

Some people always feel that such a brilliant person who is comparable to Gu Xuan and Xukong in their youth will not disappear so easily.

They have a premonition that perhaps in some future era, Xia Yu, the peerless genius, will finally shine with the glory he deserves.

However, the current era still belongs to the Great Saint Body and the Void Emperor.
