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

Chapter 287 The Emperor-Slaying Squad, the Supreme Being Surrounded and Killed, the End of Immortality
"Buzz!"

A dark divine path stretched across the universe. Yan Ming stepped onto the flowing fire and ascended in one step. All the laws of space separated beneath his feet. Light and shadow were weathered, touching the passage of time. The speed surpassed the limits of humanity, leaving an eternal imprint.

A vast expanse of blood stretched out before them, and the sea of ​​bones roared like endless rain of blood, forming a wondrous sight. In the center stood a tall figure, his feet treading on stars, his eyes piercing through the blood mist, captivating all who beheld him.

Almost two instants later, another dark golden body descended, immobilizing Qingming and surrounding the Lord of the Divine Ruins.

"boom!"

The celestial bell floated and sank, radiating countless strands of celestial light. Yan Ming's pupils were piercing, and the light he emitted was like a calamity sword, making it impossible for anyone to look him in the eye. Runes flowed across his body, and the sharp edge of his Emperor-Slaying Spear was dripping with crimson, threatening to crush this world.

"Reincarnation is dead, light and darkness are also in sorrow, and now it has come looking for me again. Does it really think that possessing a celestial artifact will make it invincible? In the end, there will only be a bloodbath." The Lord of the Divine Ruins coldly looked at the young man opposite him.

"Your time to face this calamity is approaching."

Yan Ming responded, and as he answered those words, his brow glowed, and the Twenty-Four Heavens burst forth, emanating an extremely tragic aura. Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder roared, as if gods and demons were wailing. Crimson blood and shattered divine bones lay scattered, and deathly energy filled the sky, as if an entire era had been buried.

Compared to that, the killing aura of the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone is really not good enough. Even though he suppressed a group of enemies in his first life and launched several dark upheavals after his self-destruction, it is still not enough. He lacks the record of fighting against Quasi-Emperors and beings of the same level.

"You wish to prove your path through killing, and to be transformed by bathing in imperial blood. This is your choice." The Lord of the Divine Ruins' gaze was cold and piercing.

"You're scared."

On the other side, the young man stepped forward, a spear held horizontally, as if he were about to unleash a bloodbath.

"I was just thinking that if I could use you as a sacrifice, it wouldn't be impossible to achieve the ultimate sublimation." The Lord of the Divine Ruins' pupils suddenly blazed, turning into silvery sharpness that illuminated the world as he seriously considered this question.

After absorbing the blood essence of all living beings, his condition improved, and he was fearless in battle. However, since his life was at stake, he still needed to consider the matter carefully.

Now it seems that the question asked in my heart has been answered!
This junior is aggressive and there's no point in backing down; he's destined to make a decisive move.

"You can give it a try." Yan Ming's response was simple and direct.

Throughout, he remained calm, the ancestral blood within him glowing, and some divine power manifesting in his golden eyes. After directly defeating the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness, he was fearless and steadfast. Even if the Emperor reappeared and the Undying manifested, he would still dare to rush forward and fight.

"Then let's fight!" the Lord of the Divine Ruins roared. With a clang, he drew his imperial weapon, its dazzling light illuminating the dark land, extremely awe-inspiring.

As the lord of the forbidden zone, he possessed his own pride, disdaining to ask for help and unafraid of a Great Perfection Saint, even Yan Ming, who danced with the Immortal Bell. This was foreshadowed in the novel "Covering the Sky," where he showed a sliver of respect to Gai Jiuyou, who was burning himself out, without humiliating him, and fought him.

Yan Ming had considered a one-on-one duel with this kind of person, but his mind was overwhelmed by thoughts of killing.

What's the point of talking to these decaying beings? In another timeline, several supreme beings besieged and killed the void; it's all just history repeating itself.

How can you advance in rank without fighting!
He paved his path to the ultimate path with the blood and bones of all the emperors!

"boom!"

Billions of streams of blood flowed, enveloping the master of the Divine Ruins. A surge of malevolent energy erupted, a kind of Emperor-level blood array cultivated by devouring all living beings, which had been preparing for this moment.

At this moment, the blood energy surged and boiled, engulfing this star field, and the sky and earth collapsed in an instant.

This is merely a cover, a tool used to protect oneself from ultimate self-improvement!
"when!"

Yan Ming stepped out, and in his hand appeared a large bell, as clear as mutton fat jade, with five colors, surging chaotic energy, and twenty-four black and yellow waterfalls crashing down, shaking the world.

The Chaos Bell collided with the Imperial Artifact, sparks flew everywhere, and the symbols that erupted between them were terrifying, severing the universe and making this moment eternal!

"boom!"

Then, Yan Ming opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of Divine Mark Purple Gold Lamp.

It rapidly expanded, commanding the twenty-four heavens to suppress the sea of ​​blood. The scene was terrifying. The lamp body carried the weight of time, chanting incessantly, surrounded by the most powerful laws, as it blasted forward.

On the other side, the Holy Body wielded the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, his armor gleaming, and with a deafening boom, rocks and clouds shattered!

Almost instantly, the Myriad Spirits Blood Array was broken.

Yan Ming moved against the flow of time, each step he took aligning with the heavens and earth, creating a mysterious rhythm.

"Hey!"

He rushed in front of the Lord of the Divine Ruins, his spear manifesting all things and revealing the rules of the emperors, suppressing him below and aiming to pierce the Supreme's brow.

The most deadly thing is the Celestial Bell, which flows with vast amounts of light rain, fluttering and swirling, and wherever it passes, time changes, and a sense of vicissitude arises spontaneously.

"Junior!"

The Lord of the Divine Ruins shouted, his eyes turning cold, and was forced to stop the operation of the Immortal Platform to quickly resist.

"boom!"

Yan Ming attacked, followed by the Holy Body. The Immortal Bell fell, and the Emperor-Slaying Spear pierced the void. This scene had been played out not long ago, and now it was a replica.

When the immortal artifact crashed down, the chaotic sea trembled, spewing forth boundless auspicious rays. The imperial chain was pierced, a truly shocking sight.

The place was blown apart, completely boiling over, and in utter chaos. The Lord of the Divine Ruins was at the very center of the attack wave, and he was bleeding from the very beginning. He was surrounded and killed by Yan Ming and the Great Accomplished Holy Body, plus a celestial artifact. Even the Light and Dark Supreme, who had reached the pinnacle of sublimation, was struggling in this situation.

As for those who have not yet ascended to the highest level, they will face numerous dangers and are truly in danger of perishing. They could perish if they are not careful.

"Om!"

The celestial bell vibrated, illuminating endless light. Yan Ming pushed it to its limit, and the celestial artifact was also under the supervision of the deity. It had a certain need for the emperor's blood, which was equivalent to a lubrication and maintenance during the eternity, and was beneficial and harmless.

At the same time, Yan Ming exhaled immortal fire, and his golden crow, with its body gleaming gold and feathers fluttering like immortal gold, carried the flames that filled the sky and burned the boundless sea.

Moreover, the Holy Body wielded the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, still unleashing its power and suppressing forward.

With a soft "poof," blood flew up as the Lord of the Divine Ruins was struck by Zhong Bo, tumbling backward. In that instant, Yan Ming thrust forward with his spear, unleashing a punch from his Great Perfection Sacred Body, causing the Lord to stagger and nearly fall to the ground. The Immortal Bell unleashed its Time Domain, its beams dazzling, striking his shoulder. The terrifying light of time directly engulfed one of his arms, freezing that part in time. Then, Yan Ming struck, nearly killing him!
The Lord of the Divine Ruins groaned, his expression icy. Since attaining enlightenment, he had only suffered such a great loss in this battle. In the past, he was invincible. Even when he left the Immortal Source and launched the Dark Turmoil, he never shed blood. Those moths drawn to the flame gave everything, but they could only shake him for a moment.

Runes erupted from his body, and countless divine rays and auspicious lights emanated from his forehead, surging forth with terrifying battle aura that raged across the heavens and earth!

That was his fundamental law roaring—the primordial spirit as the foundation, and the Daoist thought pervading everywhere!

With a deafening boom, a terrifying forbidden area appeared in this starry sky. The Southern Heavenly Gate stood majestically, which was the Divine Ruins. It was as if they had crossed countless galaxies from the Big Dipper Star Region to arrive here in an instant.

In fact, this is not the real Divine Ruins, but the supreme imprint of this forbidden zone of life. All the Dao traces bloomed, imprinted from the Big Dipper across the sea of ​​stars, and set up a supreme divine array to carry out a great slaughter!

This method can only be mastered by the owner of the forbidden area; each ancient forbidden area has its own secrets.

The Primordial Ancient Mine produces Life Stones, and time flows slowly deep within the Undying Mountain. The Divine Ruins also have special products that can nourish the primordial spirit and achieve a different kind of anti-aging effect. However, the effect is not as miraculous as one might imagine, and is not much different from the effects of the Immortal Mine and the Undying Mountain.

An even more devastating battle broke out!

After the Lord of the Divine Ruins launched the blood sacrifice, the forbidden zone formation was completely revived, becoming even more terrifying. The chaotic energy surged, and the killing light was overwhelming, causing the sun, moon, and stars to tremble.

In this clash of titans, the Immortal Bell rang violently, directly confronting the Divine Ruins Killing Array. Yan Ming and the Great Accomplished Holy Body seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack. The Lord of the Divine Ruins was caught in the crossfire and flew through the air, blood gushing from his mouth and some of his bones deforming.

The Emperor-Slaying Spear struck down the South Heavenly Gate and rushed out quickly. Its sharp edge was stained with the blood of the Emperor's Path, a shocking sight that dyed the entire area a brilliant yet sinister color.

It soared into the sky and vanished without a trace in an instant.

Yan Ming's long hair danced wildly, his face was extremely cold and stern, and his blood aura was overwhelming. A dark golden sun rose from behind him, making him look like a god. The nine-colored immortal flames on the ancient robe of the God Emperor were burning. With a "poof", he shattered all the paths of the Emperor-Slaying Spear.

His temperament was unique, and his appearance differed considerably from that of his sons, especially his eldest son, who almost perfectly inherited An Miaoyi's looks and could be described as having unparalleled beauty. However, Yan Ming's aura of ruthlessness after a hundred battles was too distinct. When it erupted at this moment, it possessed an immortal and indestructible charm, which was the ultimate of different paths.

"puff!"

Crimson blood stained the stars. The Lord of the Divine Ruins was pierced through the chest, and blood flowed from the tip of his spear onto the ground.

"Oh!"

The Great Accomplished Holy Body's eyes blazed with dark light, shooting out like two sharp bolts of lightning. The flawless black blood within its body emitted a sound like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing, clearly vibrating outwards. The entire starry sky was trampled and collapsed in all directions.

He rose with the tide, his body teeming with dark matter, making him the most thoroughly transformed person in the Immortal Ruins.

He quelled rebellions in life, and picked up weapons after death, instantly becoming the Dark King!
It's like destiny, a way to make up for the peace of my first life!

"Roar!"

The Supreme One fought desperately, roaring and going completely berserk, as if he had returned to the most difficult night of his life, when he fought a powerful enemy who was many realms above him, and his spirit and fighting desire were raised to the highest point of his life.

At that moment, his primordial spirit resounded, radiating an immortal brilliance.

Finally, the climax arrived unexpectedly. After paying a terrible price, the Lord of the Divine Ruins regained his imperial position and began a fierce battle.

This battle penetrated deep into the chaotic depths of space at the edge of the universe, unknown to outsiders. It was a truly frenzied fight. Immortal Bell joined the battle, and the Great Perfection Fire Spirit and the Great Completion Holy Body clashed with former Emperor-level figures, causing even the Milky Way to lose its color and become dim.

This was the most brutal and bloody battle ever. The three fought fiercely, destroying countless brilliant galaxies and exchanging countless blows.

Blood splattered from the immortal crows, staining the vast expanse with crimson, a scene of boundless terror. Yet its master remained calm, never exceeding his limits. The Lord of the Divine Ruins was in slightly better condition than the Supreme Being of Light and Darkness, but this only affected the duration of the ascension; their Imperial Laws were nearly identical, unable to break through the combined seal of the Immortal Bell, the Divine Emperor's Robe, and the Twenty-Four Heavens.

In another realm, the feud between the Ancient Sacred Body and the Eternal Celestial Venerable comes to an end.
The battle had dragged on until now, and both men were nearing the end of their lives, utterly exhausted.

The Celestial Venerable of Immortality is too ancient. Even though he has devoured a large number of living beings and has sealed himself with immortal sources and primordial life stones, hiding in the Immortal Tomb, he will eventually decay and perish by now.

He has appeared in the world too many times, leaving many traces in ancient history. He began to be active in the mythological era, and his hand also appeared in the ancient times.

In the ancient times, this ancient celestial being also manifested, and had a love-hate relationship with his current mortal enemy.

As he had said, the Great Accomplished Holy Body was cursed, its blood and energy withered. If it weren't for the white-robed empress, he would have already passed away. His condition was very poor, and he was in his final years.

"boom!"

The Lord of the Immortal Tomb was completely desperate, wanting to restore himself to the Human Emperor, achieve the ultimate sublimation, and transform into an invincible Celestial Venerable of the mythical era to carry out the final suppression.

Because if things continue like this, he might perish together with the Great Accomplished Holy Body, or even die first. At the most critical moment, even the secret of the word "Zhe" would not be able to stop him.

That fire spirit is hunting; the potential threat remains!
Even someone as profound as the Celestial Venerable of Immortality could not have failed to consider this point. However, this choice was too cruel, as it would almost certainly lead to death after ascension, hence his constant torment.

After fighting for so long, he had been so thoroughly killed by the Great Accomplished Holy Body that his blood and energy had been depleted, and his life force had decreased too much. He could clearly feel that the "Zhe" secret technique would soon be useless.

However, the result was cruel!
He failed. He couldn't reach the pinnacle of his abilities. His physical condition was too poor, and he couldn't even make a desperate attempt to survive!

He had anticipated this outcome, but its actual occurrence still caused his pupils to contract sharply. It was an extremely critical signal; he, the Eternal Celestial Venerable, had lived for countless ages, and today he might finally be about to perish!
"boom!"

In fact, he was too distracted, constantly focusing on the immortal bell in his domain. At this moment, the immortal platform backfired, and his body, which had stood tall for millions of years, fell and hunched over. The eyes of the ancient celestial venerable dimmed, and drops of crystal-clear and bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, making him look exceptionally tragic.

"You're old." The Great Accomplished Holy Body, covered in golden fur, didn't make a move, only uttering these three words, which were cold and complex.

This dark upheaval, which he saw as the most terrifying and tragic in all of history, came to an end in such an unexpected way, leaving people with mixed feelings.

That person joined forces with the Dark Saint Body to form the Emperor-Slaying Duo, and with the addition of immortal artifacts, they fought several fierce battles, achieving a record so glorious that it was terrifying.

Flipping through ancient books, perhaps only the Void Emperor's supreme kill count can surpass Yan Ming's.

However, the latter is only at the Great Perfection stage, and he has undergone three tribulations simultaneously, truly astonishing throughout the ages. It is hard to say what heights he can reach in the future.

"Even without my intervention, he probably wouldn't have escaped this calamity." The Great Accomplishment Holy Body sighed softly, somewhat dazed. It was truly unbelievable that a supreme being from a forbidden zone would be surrounded and attacked.
