Covering the sky: Starting from the Golden Crow of the Holy Cliff

Chapter 273 The Second Great Completion Holy Body

A terrifying standoff ensued. Jiang Yifei, his white hair as white as snow, his eyes piercing, stared in that direction, and terrifying golden runes shot out from his eyes.

Huo Lin'er wore a lotus crown and a Taoist robe. Her face was gentle, and her black hair was as black as purple satin, like an inextinguishable source, casually draped over her chest and shoulders. The Taoist robe, which replicated the mythological era, was restrained and ancient, tightly wrapping her quasi-royal body.

The only part not covered was her head, revealing her features: bright almond-shaped eyes and a mark between her brows, truly like a celestial being, extraordinary indeed.

The guests present clearly sensed something unusual. It involved a struggle within the Dark Heavenly Court, a confrontation between quasi-emperors from the very beginning. Two unparalleled experts were evenly matched, either of whom could reign supreme under the stars and overlook all realms.

“Why must we, fellow members of the same hall, act this way?” Someone shook their head, but remained seated high above, observing from the sidelines, unwilling to participate in the conflict.

Some saints were so terrified that they could not withstand the atmosphere and almost prostrated themselves.

A few breaths later, the endless, terrifying pressure disappeared, the white mist churned, like clouds dispersing after rain, and the sky cleared, restoring peace and tranquility to the ancient heavenly palace.

The storm has passed!
The two quasi-emperors did not continue; they each withdrew their laws and stepped into the main positions set up specifically for their respective domains.

Many people were surprised, as this approach was not in line with Jiang Yifei's style. They simply took it as advice from the clansmen to make Heng Yuzi back down a little.

And... Jiang Taixu has arrived!

The appearance of his mentor filled Ye Fan with immense excitement. The God King had imparted sacred techniques to him and had given him a second chance at life.

When Ye Fan made his move, all those close to him naturally came to greet him.

Some people from Beidou had a slight glint in their eyes. They all knew the origin of the God King. In his heyday, he was a man of great stature and fame, leaving behind too many legends.

Unfortunately, there are too many monsters in this world!

Even a powerful being like the White-Clad God-King was no match; his brilliance was suppressed, and he paled in comparison to the Quasi-Emperor of the Fire Kirin Cave.

Emperors in their early twenties are extremely rare, a sight seldom seen in ancient history, yet they are appearing one after another now, leaving the elderly breathless.

There are more than one direct descendant of the ancient emperor like Huo Lin'er in the Dark Heavenly Court. They have displayed their divine power on the ancient star road, leaving behind a great name that is imprinted in the deepest part of some people's hearts.

A century has passed, and Jiang Taixu's appearance has not changed much, only his face looks somewhat weathered. In recent years, he has been living in the remote borderlands and has suppressed his emotions very hard, but he is still some distance away from becoming a quasi-emperor.

The Heavenly Gate is impassable!

It requires accumulation and experience.

Without extraordinary opportunities, how could a quasi-emperor have existed for two hundred years?

In fact, the ancient emperors and great emperors who reached that realm were generally over five hundred years old, and it was not uncommon for them to be quasi-emperors over a thousand years old.

Reaching the Quasi-Emperor realm at the age of two hundred is considered extraordinary, even in the forbidden zones of life; it's like a fairy tale, and such a being is extremely rare.

Upon careful reflection, it is only in the chaotic era when the strongest rises that such extraordinary individuals, born divine and transcendent, can shine so brightly in a vibrant age!
"Yifei, it's just some empty fame, why bother with it?"

Knowing what had happened, Jiang Taixu shook his head, displaying an extremely open-minded nature.

After a century of exile, his mindset was elevated, and he became completely indifferent to these external fame, truly achieving a state of neither being elated by external gains nor saddened by personal losses.

Jiang Yifei nodded, but inwardly he thought that he was not afraid of Huo Lin'er, but cared about someone else.

Over the years, that group of people has rarely manifested themselves, but their power has expanded too quickly because they have a deep foundation and ancient imperial weapons. Now that Huo Lin'er has emerged from seclusion and has been certified as a quasi-emperor, what stage have the others reached?

At the very least, that woman known as the Celestial Phoenix Princess is definitely no weaker than the Qilin Maiden...

Ye Fan personally led Jiang Taixu into the Immortal Ruins. The path they took was all the way of Heaven. The path twisted and turned under their feet, and fragments of space flew around, containing the Great Dao of Stars. Only a few experts could see through the star phenomena and see the Ten Thousand Dragons Peak at the bottom to see the Frosty Sky of Ten Thousand Trees.

The road leading to the Heavenly Palace complex is uniquely scenic, with cliff carvings and inscriptions, some of which are renowned ancient carvings, while others are personally inscribed by the quasi-emperor, all truly priceless.

Ninety thousand miles between heaven and earth, following the specially paved ascension path, they arrived at the true ancient heavenly palace, and then passed through the heavenly gate of the Li trigram. The stones on the ground exuded a pure fragrance, and the fruit trees by the roadside were bright and crystal clear, with a rich aroma of fruit and a life essence so rich that it was almost crystallized.

Jiang Taixu clearly sensed something unusual; everything he saw along the way was sacred, and the changes in this place were immense.

“Only in this way can it be the place of the Heavenly Court,” he sighed, passing the Hall of Reception.

An elder of the Jiang family hesitated to speak. Their clan should have been high above others. If the God King had stayed here, he would never have been stuck in a bottleneck. The Hengyu clan would have produced two Quasi-Emperors, with unparalleled power. But it was too late to say all this now.

"At least we have Yifei here." He comforted himself, thinking that everything in the world should be done in moderation, and the Jiang family had already been prosperous enough over the years.

Yifei received the Heavenly Venerable's inheritance and established a new lineage, which is the foundation for all ages.

The wedding was held in the Chaohui Hall, guarded by chaotic immortal spirits such as the Golden Crow and the Heavenly Phoenix on the left and right. Various exotic flowers and plants were rooted all around, radiating divine light and exuding a fragrant aroma. Among them was even a demigod herb with branches like stars, blooming with dazzling flowers, its petals falling like rain of light, a beauty beyond compare.

The palace was vast, and some truly distinguished guests were already seated, with jade tables and chairs set out before them, and fine wines and delicacies laid out. A hazy white mist enveloped the scene, recreating a scene of a banquet in the ancient heavenly court during the mythological era.

Yao Chen arrived a little late and has been diligently cultivating in the 'Purple Jade Pill Room,' a building left behind by the ancient Heavenly Court, all these years, hoping to become a Quasi-Emperor in the Dao of Alchemy, but this path is too difficult.

Like Jiang Taixu, he remained at the Ninth Heaven of the Great Sage, but their statuses were completely different.

With Yao Chen's addition, the Holy Body's side can barely shed the word "weak," but compared to whom?

At the highest point, in the area close to the Lingxiao Palace, several figures sat cross-legged. They were very quiet and didn't say much. The chaotic energy there was so thick that it swallowed their figures.

On the jade table in front of them was a Star Fruit, a demigod-level medicine.

The Myriad Star Medicine is a renowned divine tree in the Heavenly Court. Its fruit contains rich stellar essence, especially since it was personally cultivated by a certain quasi-emperor and planted in a sacrificial site, containing fragments of the Great Dao!

This fruit, just one, can transform an ordinary person who eats it. With the corresponding scriptures, it can grant them a smooth ascension to the rank of Star Saint.

"The Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo has become the successor of the Beginningless One. Will the opponent destined for him appear?" Just then, a figure spoke, as if living millions of years ago. His words were ethereal and profound, and his entire being was ancient and shrouded in chaos.

He was like a statue; though he spoke, he remained completely still and without any emotion.

The same applies to the others; they can only see the deep darkness through the chaotic energy, but if they pierce through the dark domain, they can see the ultimate light again.

"I once created an avatar to search for it and found it in a star field, but that Heavenly Blade was too ferocious, annihilating everything, and was very different from other ancient imperial weapons." Dao Yi spoke, his eyes opening and closing like swords ringing in unison, exuding a powerful and awe-inspiring aura.

Having crossed the deadly realm, the Dao Yan Emperor's temperament has changed significantly, but the light of his soul has grown stronger, bearing the marks of that person from the past.

“Nurtured for so long, the importance of that stone egg is self-evident. To capture it, we must overcome the Undying Heavenly Blade; otherwise, it's all just empty talk.” “The net has been cast, and those two beings have returned to their positions. It remains to be seen whether the Heavenly Blade will be wary of the rise of the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo.” Another person said, the aura dissipating to reveal Yao Guang.

Over the years, he has ventured deep into the underworld, assumed a different identity, and reaped the greatest benefits. No one knows that the true identity of the God Lord of the Divine Realm and the successor of the Yama Palace is the same person.

It was precisely because of this that the three great halls of the underworld lay dormant, and several powerful figures saw hope in them, wanting to cultivate a master with chaotic blood, who would one day sweep away all enemies upon reaching great heights.

If the Holy Body were here, it would be shocked. The group was discussing the most terrifying mastermind in the world, which was related to the burial site beneath the surface of the Sea of ​​Mars eighteen years ago.

This grand ceremony, with distinguished guests from all the heavens, including several quasi-emperors in person, was actually orchestrated by a group of quasi-emperors behind what was known as a celestial marriage.

"On another note, I do hope nothing happens today, so we can see if a truly invincible bloodline can be born." The Dark Golden Crow in the clan spoke, its desolate demonic eyes growing even more terrifying.

At this moment, the grand wedding in the Chaohui Hall had already begun. Yao Guang's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at the Heavenly Princess surrounded by a group of celestial maidens, a rare tremor appearing in her eyes.

According to the genealogy, this child should call him ancestor.

A hundred years ago, he tried the Yin-Yang Dao, replenishing the body through sexual intercourse. He had one offspring and a daughter with a descendant of a queen from the sacrificial cliff. She married Ye Tong's third son, who was the mother of that princess.

The child possessed latent Chaos Blood within him, while his Sun Blood, inherited from Ye Tong's lineage, was dominant...

However, whether a primordial chaotic holy body Dao embryo can be born is unknown to anyone.

Yao Guang closed her eyes. This secret was known only to herself and that great one. The subsequent journeys to the Divine Realm and the Underworld were all based on this matter.

Otherwise, one cannot be considered to have entered the core group.

Midway through the wedding, a guest arrived from the forbidden area of ​​the Undying Mountain. A quasi-emperor stepped down from his divine chariot, his demeanor awe-inspiring and his presence imposing without anger. It was none other than Shen Ming, whose aura was overflowing, clearly indicating that he had recently broken through to the next level.

He nodded to the two Golden Crows, the official figures from Heaven who presided over the celestial marriage. The two had interacted in the depths of the starry sky and found their personalities compatible.

Later, the Golden Crow Prince was invited to travel to the Immortal Mountain. They played chess under the ancient tea tree of enlightenment and have maintained contact over the years. A female descendant of the gods and demons lives in the prince's palace.

Accompanying them was Anpu, who had manifested before, but this time he kept a low profile.

His choice differed from that of Shenming. Over the years, he had been honing himself, not wanting to pass the Ancient Emperor Bloodline barrier, as that would be considered a shortcut and would deplete some of his future hopes.

"Another Holy Body, with bloodlines comparable to the First Generation. This lineage has never been so powerful in all the ages." Anpu spoke, his tone as gentle and soothing as ever.

Shenming nodded, deeply agreeing.

In the past, even if there were fully accomplished holy bodies in the mortal world, only one or two of their descendants could completely inherit the holy blood.

In this respect, Ye Fan, the Holy Body, is quite special, as both of his offspring have shown signs of bloodline reversion.

As for that female saint body named Ye Zi, it's understandable that she had the blessing and empowerment of Yan Ming, which helped purify her bloodline and restore her to sainthood. Her strong aptitude is also justifiable.

Now another Ye Yishui has appeared, whose blood energy is so vast that it surpasses even her father's, truly a student surpassing his master...

To some people's surprise, the celestial marriage proceeded smoothly, and no one came to obstruct it.

The candlelight flickered, the banquet ended, but the being the Heavenly Court was waiting for did not arrive.

"Did I guess wrong? Heavenly Blade really doesn't care about the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo." The Heavenly Emperor's son's eyes flashed with light as he laid out a net, but unfortunately, the egg didn't take the bait.

Deep within the sacrificial cliff lies a cave dwelling containing two dark coffins, exuding a terrifying aura of death.

"boom!"

Suddenly, one of the ancient coffins began to vibrate, its lid flying off as a terrifying figure rushed out and reappeared standing outside the Milky Way, amidst chaos.

The dark, bloody aura spread out, appearing elusive and somewhat eerie among the sun, moon, and stars.

After standing still for a long time, this forbidden being suddenly turned around. In that instant, he saw a celestial blade moving away, its blaze incredibly intense, making the sun seem like a firefly in comparison.

"Buzz!"

Like the first ray of dawn before the creation of the world, its blade was crystal clear, its beam of light dazzling and awe-inspiring, and its blade energy spread like the sea, shaking the ancient starry sky.

Below, the chaotic sea roared, and a stone egg floated on the water. All kinds of pre-creation essence surged in and entered it, creating a terrifying and astonishing effect.

No one expected that the Undying Heavenly Blade would actually arrive!

Having remained hidden in the shadows, he sensed that unique bloodline, but after much deliberation, he chose to retreat.

"If you're so determined, why go so far?" the black-haired figure said, his eyes so sharp they seemed to cut through the universe.

With his strength reaching such a level, he would not fear even fighting against an ancient emperor. Having quelled unrest in his lifetime, he would naturally fear a weapon.

He chased after the starry sea, but the Heavenly Blade was also fast and did not catch up immediately. The man and the blade ascended into the starry sea.

"Buzz!"

In a chase, the Heavenly Blade chanted ancient incantations, and runes rained down across the six directions and eight wastelands. It soared into the sky, gradually distancing itself from its pursuers.

The forbidden entity that emerged from the coffin was deeply shaken. It didn't seem like a weapon at all, but rather a living emperor, truly possessing similar characteristics.

"What a magnificent Heavenly Blade!" he exclaimed, his battle blood boiling within him.

This sword is incredibly famous, with myths and legends surrounding it since ancient times. The Heavenly Sword symbolizes the Way of Heaven, reflecting the confidence of the Undying Emperor, who considers himself the best in history and has no rivals in the human realm!

"I have no need to waste my time with a resurrected dead man. When the supreme emperor returns, everything will be over." The cold voice echoed, and the Heavenly Blade swept across the sky, cleaving through the boundless universe. Darkness and coldness were cut apart. With the Heavenly Blade in the world, nothing could stop it!

Its speed was too fast, surpassing everything. The snow-white blade light swept across, dimming even the stars in the sky. It could cut through the universe. Even a great emperor might not be able to catch up with it. This blade possessed an indescribable divinity. All the brilliance of the world paled in comparison to it.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a purple-gold demon-subduing pestle, wreathed in Daoist patterns, fell down, indestructible, blocking the path of the Heavenly Blade and repelling it.

The second person has arrived!
