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

Chapter 277 The Blood Immortal's Path
Outside the desolate forbidden area, blood flowed freely, chilling to the bone. A gruesome corpse fell to the ground. Even if a sect's founder was beheaded, he would be nothing more than dust, nothing at all.

"Holy Body Yang Xi, are you going to rebel against the human race?? You have killed a great sage without cause. Even the quasi-emperors of the Heavenly Court have never done this. You are too rampant..." Someone shouted, a hint of fear rising in his voice. He held a feather fan that was surrounded by ice and snow. With a forceful wave of his fan, it was as if a water god had descended to earth, and immediately endless raindrops rushed over.

"Who is the Holy Body of the Human Race? You've got the wrong person." Yang Xi's steps never stopped, he kept rushing forward. At this moment, he let out a long roar, his eyes bursting out with endless blazing golden light, and his Dao flames swept across the sky, suppressing the rain and snow.

"Hey!"

The collision was deafening, and the entire area was filled with thick fog, resulting in a violent scorching.

The ice and snow feather fan in the Great Sage's hand shattered. When the flames subsided, his entire body was charred black, and his primordial spirit flew out of his head, fleeing for his life. Then, he was cleaved into dozens of pieces by a beam of blazing golden light shot from Yang Xi's eyes, and his shrill screams echoed throughout the Southern Region.

Everyone gasped in astonishment. Yang Xi was too powerful. He truly deserved to be called a prodigy of the Dark Heavenly Court. His methods and his god-like demeanor made even the older generation pale in comparison, unable to compete with him at all.

"Perhaps it really is possible to reach that level of mastery," someone whispered.

He slew two Great Saints of the Ninth Heaven with the flick of his finger, and killed an old sect leader of a region as easily as killing a chicken. Who could do that? His cultivation was earth-shattering, how could it not make people tremble? He was definitely the most terrifying existence below the Quasi-Emperor level.

Many older figures guessed Yang Xi's intention: he wanted to prove his path with blood.

The past of Yang Xi's lineage is not a secret. Their growth was very difficult. Although they were not the first generation of the Holy Body, they still rose against the heavens and their killings shook the starry sky, just like a dark war god.

It can be said that if the Emperor Burial Star had not produced a Holy Body ahead of time and stirred up the storm, Yang Xi would have been the sole recipient of the Holy Body title in the future.

In fact, even with the existence of the Beidou Sacred Body, Yang Xi's lineage is bound to rise, and no one can overshadow its brilliance or let Ye Fan steal the spotlight!
"Do we really have to abandon the Holy Body of our race?" an old man sighed. In such an era, the Great Accomplished Holy Body is truly needed to protect the world.

Unfortunately, this is the final result, leaving people with a deep sense of regret.

If the youthful arrogance is limited to those near the level of a quasi-emperor, then true masters don't care.

But such a trend is enough to make people tremble. Does Yang Xi represent the inclination of the two Great Accomplished Saints within the Dark Heavenly Court?
If so, it will turn the world upside down!

The carnage in front of the desolate forbidden land has not yet ended.

Yang Xi strode forward, and with each step he took, many huge cracks appeared in the ground, like a dark giant on a journey, unstoppable by anything.

"Lightning strikes, the world changes!" the third fugitive shouted, holding a ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, its entire body dark brown, shaped like a celestial sword, but now it glowed and emitted boundless lightning.

With a deafening boom, the clouds churned and the light shattered, piercing through the ground of this mountain range. One after another, pure white lightning bolts shot up, each radiating divine light, like dragons, rushing madly towards Yang Xi.

"Little Doyle!" Yang Xi snapped.

He strode with the imposing presence of a dragon and the tiger, his hair suddenly growing longer and becoming translucent, then emitting a dark golden light. As night fell, an endless black mist shrouded everything.

The Taoist priest was covered in blood, and his wooden sword snapped in two with a crack. He was knocked to the ground and staggered backward, leaving a trail of bloody footprints in the air.

"Brother Dao, I apologize for my rudeness earlier. I am willing to make amends." He spoke quickly and summoned a golden bell, its yin light surging, protecting his vital points.

I'm truly no match for him. This young man is too powerful. If we continue fighting, my five thousand years of cultivation might be for naught.

"What compensation will you offer? Can you even afford it?" Yang Xi snapped, his expression icy cold.

"Six people spoke just now, all of them were Great Sages... Do you really intend to kill them all one by one?" the Taoist said hatefully, his heart filled with horror.

The other party wanted to eliminate him, and in this unfamiliar star system, there was no one who could save him.

Yang Xiqian's determination to kill him remains unchanged.

"Demon, you were born with a rebellious nature. Today, your hands are stained with the blood of your own kind. The Azure Heaven Tyrant Bloodline should exterminate your entire clan!" The Taoist, having nowhere else to turn, glared angrily, knowing that nothing he said would make a difference, and he had to fight to the death.

"Buzz!"

The void trembled violently as a jet-black fist flew out, instantly blooming with a tragically beautiful flower of blood upon landing. The Taoist was knocked down in an instant, his forehead bone flying out.

"Ah... Yang Xi, you brat... you... will die a horrible death..." The fair, holy bones, warm and translucent, floated in the air, and the space was surrounded by terrifying screams.

"Boom, bang, bang..."

In the darkness, Yang Xi, his hair stained with blood, smashed the Taoist's head with punch after punch, leaving only a headless corpse nailed to the mountainside, leaving behind a trail of crimson blood.

After doing all this, he got up and once again embarked on the hunt.

In this scene, everyone who witnessed it felt a chill in their heart, and even the quasi-emperors remained silent, unwilling to get involved in such a great cause and effect.

The children's rampant behavior is the adults' fault!
The Golden Crow in the Heavenly Court set a good example by slaughtering quasi-emperors and causing countless bloodshed.

Now his descendants are running rampant and brazenly hunting down the older generation of Great Sages. Their arrogance has drawn the ire of many, who believe that Yang Xi has no regard for the bigger picture.

"Let alone his unwillingness to bear the name of the Holy Body, even if he were willing, it would be useless. He is a complete jinx, talented but without virtue, and one day he will be taken away by someone."

"The senior Sima was highly respected, yet he actually... actually tore his head apart and hung it up for all to see."

"Throughout history, there are very few who have committed such heinous crimes. His blood is filled with sin, and he is not worthy of being called a saint."

The news of the bloodshed in front of the desolate forbidden land spread far and wide, with a great impact. The dead were all senior Great Saints with many disciples.

Many people across the myriad realms are discussing this, especially the powerful members of the human race, who are extremely dissatisfied with Yang Xi and consider his lineage to be of sinful blood.

For the sake of all living beings, some powerful figures began to plan to send people to the desolate ancient forbidden land, hoping to meet with the Great Accomplished Holy Body and plead their case, and ideally, the Great Accomplished Holy Body would intervene and suppress Yang Xi for ten thousand years.

They chose Ye Fan, hoping he would come forward, but for a hundred years Ye Fan's whereabouts have been uncertain, and his true identity has never been found.

Finally, a protector of the ancient human path emerged from seclusion, confident in his impeccable merits and benevolent deeds. He borrowed a quasi-Emperor artifact to enter the desolate ancient forbidden land, seeking an audience with the Great Accomplished Holy Body. However, receiving no response, he deliberately leaped into the abyss, insisting on his visit.

As a result, a crystal-clear jade palm struck out, turning the virtuous and universally praised Great Sage into a bloody mist.

The others scattered like birds and beasts, fearing that the giant hand would fly out and wipe them all out.

The turmoil ended in this ironic way. Afterwards, even quasi-emperors dared not come to see him. The desolate forbidden land returned to tranquility, leaving only the headless corpse on the outer mountain range, where it remained, immersed in the passage of time...

Time passed like sand. At a certain moment, a deafening roar occurred in the Big Dipper constellation. A peerless divine power surged forth from the central life-bearing star, rapidly spreading throughout the universe, causing numerous stars to explode!
The crack on the path to immortality fluctuated violently, bursting forth from a single point. Brilliant light shone forth, and dazzling rays danced in the air. The great crack burst open, expanding to tens of thousands of feet in length, and directly entered the forbidden zone.

A terrifying light shot into the sky, the source of unparalleled divine power, extremely dazzling. The path to immortality was about to appear, and this place was crumbling.

"The path to immortality is about to appear; it will truly manifest in this world in this lifetime!"

"The Heavenly Gate is opening wide, the Immortal Realm is about to appear, and the ultimate ancient road that has been anticipated for millions of years is about to traverse the two realms!"

It sounded like an ancient incantation, resounding throughout heaven and earth, or like a sacrificial chant, shaking the nine heavens and ten earths, vast and mighty, with divine sounds deafening. People from the seven forbidden zones of life, the underworld, the immortal ruins, and the ancestral star of the Overlord Body all awakened and cast their gazes upon it.

Countless powerful figures on the Burial Emperor Star also moved, but instead of rushing towards the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, they soared into the sky and fled to the outer realms, because they knew that the ancient supreme beings might be about to make their way.

Some of those whose lifespans are about to end remain in the Big Dipper, because their lives are nearing their end and they have truly reached their limit. They cannot withstand any more hardship and may even perish while flying to the outer realms!
Everyone else rushed to nearby star systems, avoiding the area as far as possible, and waited for that moment to arrive.

"boom!"

The immortal path shattered, and a corpse fell, causing a shock to everyone. It was either an ancient emperor or an ancient celestial being, and the clothing was far too ancient.

At the moment the Dao Transformation Wave spread, Yan Ming awoke with a start. The Immortal Slaying Gourd trembled, and he sensed the aura of the same origin.

"It was him. I never thought I'd see him like this." He sighed inwardly. The ruthless man who had slaughtered his way across the world in the Dream Path and joined forces with the Emperor to destroy the Phoenix Clan's forbidden zone had ultimately met his end.

He took a step forward and threw the gourd out. In an instant, the immortal light tore through the universe, devouring the sky and the earth, almost blocking the path to immortality. It put the mutilated corpse into the gourd, which also became one of the rays of light soaring into the sky.

"Is it that junior who wants to establish his own underworld and raise corpses throughout the land? His ambition is quite grand."

"Several years ago, a crack appeared on the Immortal Path, and the remnant of Taiyin fell. It was about to transform into the Dao, and it was also taken away."

"That aura is unfamiliar, it seems to be from the ancient times, from the mythical era."

Those in the forbidden zone of life watched as the corpses of the emperors, having endured the fierce battles on the path to immortality, suffered extreme calamities and were accompanied by imperial wrath. Only the underworld and the heavenly court were willing to collect them.

Some people felt a familiar aura, and their emotions fluctuated slightly. Their old friends who had participated in the war against the heavens had also fallen, their bodies lying on the path to immortality, leaving nothing behind.

Yan Ming stood at the Big Dipper, not leaving, because then another great collapse occurred, with various immortal lights flying everywhere, and another half of a charred body fell down, covered with immortal laws, in a state of utter ruin.

"Roar!"

Another true dragon, roaring through the ages, filled with intense resentment, traversed the path to immortality.

The Immortal Path was collapsing, and the clouds and mist were churning, pure white like a light veil, extremely peaceful. The reappearance of the Emperor's Corpse also ignited the chaos, making the great rift extremely wide. Roars came from within, as if living beings were howling.

Yan Ming chanted incantations and used dark matter to cleanse the body, barely managing to eliminate that astonishing law. Otherwise, the mutilated corpse would have shattered instantly. Even so, the Demon Emperor's body was no longer of much use, as its internal essence turned into pus and blood, nurturing the most terrifying evil energy.

During this process, a cold gaze appeared from within the immortal mine, seemingly intent on killing everything, but ultimately it did not rush out, remaining patient and waiting for the moment of tribulation.

"This is the moment!"

"An age-old wait, focused on one point!"

There was an ancient supreme roar in the restricted area of ​​life, which shook the stars outside the area, and some small stars fell directly. It was too terrifying and peerless.

"boom!"

The sky collapsed and the earth shattered, and the large crack in the fairyland released a dazzling light. Rocks, dead trees, rubble, etc. flew together, and then turned into flying ash. In the depths, the chaotic energy was dispersed, revealing a huge majestic pass.

It wasn't made of piled-up stones; it was entirely formed from the laws of nature. The path to immortality had appeared, at the right time and in the right place, and people had been waiting for it!
"After waiting for eternity, it finally appears!"

This is the ancient voice from the Primordial Mine, the blood essence unique to the Great Emperor of Humanity soaring into the sky, containing so much bitterness and helplessness, waiting for a long time, paying an irreparable price, and finally seeing this life.

Yan Ming cast his gaze over, and an item on his body was glowing. It was a tattered token he had obtained from the Ziwei Star Region, with a star pattern drawn on it.

“An ancient emperor,” he murmured to himself, closing his eyes and remaining motionless, waiting for that unique fluctuation.

"Ow..."

Roars of living beings echoed from the Immortal Path, shaking the Eastern Wilderness. At the same time, a small red bird flew out from the majestic pass and hovered there amidst raging flames.

"Roar……"

With another roar, a giant, snow-white tiger appeared, as if carved from white jade, exuding overwhelming pressure that shook the entire eastern wilderness.

"when……"

When a great bell rang out, the heavens and earth trembled. It was from the depths of the universe that a celestial law tore through and pierced the great rift in the celestial path.

At the same time, beneath the Eastern Wilderness, an ancient tower flew out, crashing down and shattering the surrounding area before disappearing again. (Chapter 1573 of "Covering the Sky": The Path to Immortality Opens)

"The Celestial Bell!"

Yan Ming's golden eyes cleaved through the heavens, his Time God Domain expanded rapidly, and he was like a dragon unleashed from its cage, chasing after the enemy. This was the only opportunity.

Throughout the entire novel, the Immortal Bell has been rarely seen. Apart from this time, it reappeared only during the finale, and there has been no other trace of it.

At the same time, two streaks of dark light shot up from the sacrificial cliff, chasing the immortal artifact and rushing towards the edge of the universe.

The Lord of the Immortal Tomb had a deep gaze. He never expected that the trio would be so fond of the Immortal Bell. The Desolate Tower had also appeared, but no one had gone to search for it.

But none of that matters anymore!

Compared to the Immortal Path, the Immortal Bell is less significant, and Immortal Artifacts possess a spirit; if the gods do not approve, almost no one can obtain them by force.

Just like in the underworld, even though a supreme being has been resurrected, he can only watch as the Heavenly Nether Treasure flies away, unable to stop the immortal artifact from leaving.

"So what if it's the Immortal Bell or the Desolate Tower? None of that matters to us anymore. They're fighting over the artifact of immortality, while we're fighting over the fruit of immortality!" someone said coldly. At that moment, light soared into the sky from all the forbidden zones of life, and the auras of Heavenly Venerables, Ancient Emperors, and Great Emperors filled the air and erupted!
A momentous upheaval has begun, and a new era of prosperity is about to unfold!
"Boom!" Amidst the thunderous roar, laws danced, heaven and earth trembled, and celestial music resounded endlessly in the various forbidden zones. Various Dharma forms shocked the mortal realm, and enormous figures spread beyond the domain. Each figure was a primordial universe, a supreme Dao!

The Lord of the Immortal Tomb was the first to set out. An ancient chariot drove out, and this time he sat cross-legged on the chariot, using it as his mode of transportation.

Chaos and myriad paths engulfed that place. The ancient celestial venerable wore a purple-gold crown and a Taoist robe, obscuring his true appearance. His gray-brown hair was draped over his chest and back, and his eyes held the scene of the destruction of the sun, moon, and stars.

On the other side, the aura of the Undying Mountain soared to the heavens. The Stone Emperor, clad in jet-black armor, rode atop a gigantic divine tiger, wielding a large, dark halberd, and arrived directly before the Southern Wilderness Forbidden Land.

"Here comes the stick!"

A roar of a Qilin erupted from the Primordial Ancient Mine. In the Immortal Ruins Temple, the statue of an ancient emperor glowed, and the Qilin Staff in his hand flew out of his grasp, tearing through the universe and falling into the hands of a true ancient emperor.

Starlight cascaded down, and an ancient emperor manifested. His body was majestic, with the sun and moon revolving around him. Behind him, an imperial star hung high, its purple light dazzling the sky and emitting overwhelming magical power.

Mythical Celestial Venerable, Primordial Emperor, and Ancient Great Emperor all appear, vying for a lifetime of immortality!
