Covering the Heavens: Starting from the First Great Emperor

Chapter 113 Chase
Xu Yuanming roared, and his primordial spirit, holding the Emperor Sword, spoke in unison. Divine beasts such as True Dragon and Immortal Phoenix appeared around him.

The Dao's sound was vast and boundless, shattering the Yin and Yang creation, breaking through the infinite chaos, and the Dao of destiny washed away all Yin and Yang energies.

He swung his sword forward with all his might in his right hand, piercing through the body of the Yin-Yang True Immortal with a clang.

Xu Yuanming's body blossomed, and all sorts of wondrous celestial arts revealed their true meaning, merging and converging within the laws of destiny.

He gave his opponent no chance at all. At this moment, he held the Emperor Sword in his other hand and once again merged the three sword techniques.

Click!
Xu Yuanming used his strongest power to shatter the Fangtian Halberd into pieces of black gold, which, stained with the blood of the Yin-Yang True Immortal, scattered throughout the universe.

"puff!"

The Yin-Yang True Immortal exploded, turning into blood mist and transforming into the most terrifying calamity in the world, attempting to merge into the giant's ruins.

Although the battle was only a brief exchange, it was extremely intense.

Xu Yuanming suffered extremely severe trauma; his level of understanding was still too low.

He sat cross-legged there, rapidly healing his wounds, and with a wave of his hands, he drew back all the blood-red light that the Yin-Yang True Immortal was about to wash away, engulfing him.

This was the blood essence of a quasi-immortal king, the strongest immortal treasure in the world, which he immediately used to heal his injuries.

Those strange creatures will not sit idly by and wait to die. He has no time to rest and recuperate; he must recover as soon as possible.

Having reached this level of cultivation, and possessing unparalleled mastery of forbidden secret techniques, he naturally knew how to heal Dao injuries. Xu Yuanming, bathed in the blood-red light, his entire body glowing, was rapidly healing.

boom!
Suddenly, in an ancient city, a mysterious force appeared, seeking to seize the blood essence and claim a share of it.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and the Thunder Pool above his head flew out to suppress and sever the pulling force.

The chaos within the Thunder Pool surged and churned, then suddenly reversed, drawing in all the blood essence. Almost instantly, it returned to the interior of the Eternal Flower and was refined into a cup of tea.

Xu Yuanming drank it all in one gulp. Scriptures flowed endlessly between heaven and earth, and he himself appeared as if he had been soaked in blood, with crimson clouds filling the sky, various Daoist talismans appearing, and a solemn and dignified appearance.

Finally, he slowly stood up, fully recovered, his eyes like two beams of cold lightning.

Xu Yuanming collected the fragments of the black-gold halberd, which had already transformed into a Celestial King level weapon. He then used the Kunpeng True Meaning and left the city by shrinking the earth to an inch.

The final move just now caused tremors throughout the ruins. Almost all the cultivators were terrified, sensing an aura of the Great Dao descending and the heavens destroying the world, yet they did not know the final outcome.

At this moment, Xu Yuanming appeared, clearly indicating that the great battle had reached its final conclusion.

He slaughtered that Yin-Yang True Immortal who was at the Quasi-Immortal King level!
"Is he really just a Supreme Being? Even a Supreme Being who has undergone a transformation shouldn't be this monstrous, right?"

A woman next to Fu Ling muttered to herself.

Her aura was extremely strong, even surpassing that of Fu Ling.

At the Supreme Realm, she only had the possibility of briefly escaping from the hands of a True Immortal; defeating them was impossible, but she could at least hold her own for a while.

This person was the first Kunpeng in all the heavens of this era, born and raised in chaos, with an incomparably noble bloodline. He was immediately taken as a disciple by the current ruler of the Heavenly Court.

"Lingyu, see, I didn't lie to you. He is just as powerful as I said."

Fu Ling chuckled.

Ten thousand years ago, he received a message that a celestial being who called himself Destiny had emerged in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and that he was on the same path as the founder of their Heavenly Court.

The immortal in the mortal world!
"Phew..." someone said at this moment, "What do you think of this Fellow Daoist of Destiny compared to those two?"

“It’s incomparable,” Lingyu said softly.

……

……

Under Xu Yuanming's feet, runes of destiny manifested, and traces of chains of order were etched into the ground, as if they were cast from countless molten immortal metals, shining brightly.

The Yin and Yang energies emerged behind him, representing the full essence of the Yin-Yang True Immortals. At this moment, Xu Yuanming seized them all and manifested them into the shape of a Taiji diagram.

Xu Yuanming was covered in a sacred rain of light, as if he had walked out of the beginning of an era, and he had an indescribable aura.

He rose up in the small town near the Land of Creation with boundless killing intent, and began scanning those who had attacked him before.

At this moment, the murderous aura was like the 'effect' searching for the 'cause'.

Xu Yuanming was originally recuperating here and had no connection with these people, but he was ambushed like never before while healing his wounds.

He was really in danger just now; he could have died if he had been careless.

This is his true form, not an avatar.

Xu Yuanming knew that Fu Ling and the others were waiting for him not far away, but before meeting them, he had an even more important thing to do, which was to kill all the attackers.

Before long, he noticed that there were no people around.

Most of them were top-tier True Immortals, and two of them, like the Yin-Yang True Immortals, had one foot out of the True Immortal realm and had already glimpsed the true meaning of 'King'. However, they made no attempt to conceal their malice and acted recklessly, wanting to kill him.

"Trying to run? None of you will escape!"

Xu Yuanming's eyes were cold; today's experience had truly enraged him.

As he was healing and standing amidst the gradually evolving chaotic Yin-Yang Bagua diagram, these people showed no mercy and attacked directly.

"Heh... I don't believe you didn't suffer a single injury in your duel with the Yin-Yang True Immortal!"

The first person to make a move was a woman. She was wearing a purple robe, and every strand of her purple hair at the back of her head seemed to be constantly booming like thunder.

She made no attempt to conceal her murderous intent, as if victory was assured; however, it would have been even better if the trickle of blood at the corner of her mouth had been removed.

Xu Yuanming's investigation just now was not just a search, but also a kind of pursuit. Although he did not expect to kill these people, it would be very good to hurt them without them realizing it.

The method of the Myriad Fruits Cause was something Xu Yuanming learned from Yuanshi Tianzun. The woman in purple was still a little dizzy. The causal strangulation combined with the power of fate was hard to defend against, especially when she was relaxed.

"You killed the Yin-Yang True Immortal. Although we belong to different factions, we are destined to fight to the death. Today, I will use your life to proclaim this to the heavens!"

Xu Yuanming sneered, and the patterns of fate appeared in his pupils, layer upon layer.

Two invisible bolts of primordial spirit lightning shot out, slicing through this space, aiming to kill the creature that had made the first move without the creature noticing.

"How is this possible?!" Besides the woman in purple, another quasi-immortal king noticed the difference. A battle flag appeared in his hand as he looked at Xu Yuanming in disbelief.

He could see that the opponent's attack had a mixed Yin and Yang energy pattern, which was the method of a Yin-Yang True Immortal.

If successful, the Yin-Yang True Immortal would transform into the Chaos Immortal King. However, he was killed by Xu Yuanming before that, and all his Dao Fruits were taken by Xu Yuanming and converted into his own Dao cultivation.

The Yin and Yang energies that had just vanished once again enveloped the horizon, and from the ground, ancient chaotic runes revived once more.

Could it be that the Yin-Yang Immortal is not dead? Was his feigned death just a prelude to wipe them all out?
He wanted to use this to gain merit and join the Heavenly Court.
The quasi-immortal king holding the battle flag quickly shook his head. How could such a thing happen? Even if he really planned to do so, even if his strength was slightly inferior to the other party's, how could he possibly let the other party escape right under his nose?

Xu Yuanming first fought a deadly battle with the Yin-Yang True Immortal, and then survived the combined attack. He is now in a very magical state, constantly devouring the opponent's Dao Fruit.

The Chaos Immortal's summoning of the future 'true self' is indeed remarkable, which perfectly fills a gap in Xu Yuanming's current contemplation.

Xu Yuanming has already forged new paths in both the past and the present, but he has no clue what lies ahead.

If successful, Xu Yuanming could very well attain enlightenment on the spot, become a mortal immortal, and stand at the pinnacle of immortality.

The other four were also taken aback. This method of using Yin and Yang power seemed familiar. How could they not recognize it?

Now, as Xu Yuanming strides through the sky, the yin and yang energies on the ground surge, and the chaotic power moves with him.

The gates of destiny in the spiritual world suddenly opened, and Xu Yuanming of the 'past' took over. Beyond the two spiritual worlds, a world that transcends dimensions vaguely drifted in the void.

Two bodies united as one.

Xu Yuanming's combat strength is much stronger than before, as if he is standing in the center of this giant's ruins, invincible from the start!

The two energies of Yin and Yang connect the 'past' and the 'present'. With this, Xu Yuanming has already completed most of the journey and is not far from the pinnacle of immortality.

He seemed to have broken free from the shackles of time from a buried ancient history, stepping on the infinite path to reverse time and arrive in the present world.

"His method seems familiar, much like ours; both involve absorbing a person's essence from the root. That must be it..."

The first to make a move, the purple-robed Quasi-Immortal King, said solemnly.

Even so, it would still take them tens of thousands of years of accumulation to fully digest it.

What about the other party?
In just a few hours, Xu Yuanming had acquired all the power of Yin Yang True Immortal, a quasi-Immortal King cultivator.

"Kill him! Seize this Great Dao and see what it is that allows someone to possess the combat power of a Quasi-Immortal King at the Supreme Realm!" A reptile took the lead.

"Let his blood forge our path to kingship!"

The other four rushed after the crawler in an instant. They all made their move immediately, wanting to kill Xu Yuanming on the spot. This was not a fair competition. They had come to kill and seize the opportunity.

Even Celestial Kings would want to investigate such matters. It's not unheard of for someone in the human realm to reach the strength of a True Immortal; a few such individuals always emerge in every era.

But someone as extraordinary as Xu Yuanming is unheard of; who wouldn't want to take action if they saw him?
boom!
At this moment, all sorts of great paths emerged, like an endless river, wave after wave, and the five people all offered up their spiritual treasures.

With a crack, the sky was torn apart, and the purple-robed Quasi-Immortal King, wielding a long spear, thrust forward as if from the heavens themselves.

This spear is so heavy; it seems that the heavens, who wield the power of thunder and punishment, forged this spear based on that very force.

The tip of the spear exuded a chilling aura; it was a strange power.

The calamities of heaven were intertwined with it.

when!
Xu Yuanming unleashed a punch, and the light of destiny struck the heavy, mountain-like black spear!
A deafening roar was heard, followed by a burst of flames. The yin and yang forces, intertwined with destiny, formed a vast fire that could destroy the world with just a wisp.

At this moment, even the sky trembled. Fortunately, this place was very solid. If this attack had struck all the worlds, it would likely have turned into a forbidden zone for life.

The fire of the sky burned the entire surrounding area, merging with the rules of the giant.

Such a battle is rare not only here, but also throughout the myriad realms, naturally making it the focus of everyone's attention.

Those supreme beings of humanity who had previously besieged Xu Yuanming felt bitter inside. Ten thousand years ago, they could still see the gap between them, but now they only felt powerless, like mayflies trying to see the blue sky.

This 'Fu Ling' whom they once mistook for is too strong. Although he is still in the realm of humanity, his strength is much greater than that of their elders.

They wanted to observe the battle; after all, they might learn something from these attacks.

However, this boundless light of the sky soared into the heavens, piercing through the vast expanse of the sky and burning everything, making it impossible for them to see any trace of the battle. They could only discern who had the advantage based on the rules of the Great Dao on either side.

……

……

Deep within the ruins of the giant, rules faintly appear, belonging to a Celestial King who died long ago.

The commotion caused by Xu Yuanming and his group was so great that it was practically a table-flipping incident, forcing him to intervene.

However, just as he was about to move, a young man, completely disregarding the giant's oppressive presence, appeared in front of him.

This person was none other than Qin Hao, the Celestial King leading the team from the Heavenly Court.

"Your opponent is me."

After he finished speaking, the sword light shone brightly, like a galaxy exploding, pouring down from the depths of the other shore, annihilating a chaotic aura, and spreading chaos and death.

……

……

The fist's light was overwhelming, and even the spear, which carried the aura of a celestial king, was deformed, almost broken, and the entire spearhead was bent.

Rumble!
The five men attacked relentlessly, never stopping, unleashing a barrage of fist techniques, swordplay, laws, and orders as if they were free.

"Ha... Do you really think you're a Celestial King? You think you can suppress us all with your own power?!" the woman in purple said angrily.

She was suppressed. No matter where the spearhead struck, Xu Yuanming could easily grab it with his hand, like a large pair of pincers restricting all attacks.

This feeling was extremely frustrating and infuriating.

"Don't hold back! Let's attack together. I refuse to believe he can really suppress the five of us!" The Quasi-Immortal King, holding the battle flag, immediately rallied his men after seeing some of his companions hesitate.

"He is merely a cultivator at the human level. Even if his combat power is heaven-defying, his realm is still inferior to ours. This fundamental difference in realm cannot be eliminated."

boom!
